We know who our market is and that's who we push for," said [Don Lombaert], referring to the mall's clientele -- office workers who come for small-ticket items, downtown residents with modest bank accounts and in the summer, tourists from downtown hotels. "But what's come to fruition is, people shop where they live. It's Marketing 101, a fundamental that's now understood. "When (Manitoba) Hydro comes in, you'll see the food court go bonkers but you won't see high-end retailers come back. It's not until those 2,000 workers live downtown that you'll see a huge impact on retail," [Grande] said.

What they didn't know is we met with every sect, every gang over a three- to four-week period to get them to buy into leaving the foolishness alone," he says. "We don't publicize that because it has to be on the down low -- they would have known that if they weren't so arrogant. Like [Jerry McAfee], longtime business owners along Minneapolis's West Broadway Avenue aren't all buying into the idea that cameras make much difference. West Broadway between Washington Avenue and North Fremont Avenue can only be described a dull-looking scramble of businesses, some just eking out a trade, others housed in new buildings, looking hopeful of better times ahead. This stretch of the Northside is home to some of the more infamous sites of gang-related violence, like what locals call the "murder st...

Broken-windows theory is the brainchild of professors James Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling, who first introduced the idea in an eponymous 1982 essay in the Atlantic Monthly. Among his many other achievements, Wilson is known for his defence of racial profiling and his suggestion of genetic predispositions to criminality. As an occasional contributor to the conservative National Review, he published a pro death-penalty piece titled "Executing the Retarded." Wilson doesn't believe in bringing back truant officers; he thinks "(P)olice... can be effective truant officers by stopping and questioning young people of apparent school age standing on street corners at a time when school is in session. If they cannot show that they have a reasonable excuse for not being in school, then the polic...

Then there was the beleaguered Troy Westwood, forced to the sidelines for the first time after pulling the Blue and Gold over his head for 279 straight games. Only 10 yards away, Westwood's replacement, neophyte kicker Rob Pikula, was attempting to take away the veteran's job before his very eyes. How about Terrence Edwards, a receiver who, along with colleague Derick Armstrong, for the first time since the days of Arland Bruce III, Robert Gordon and Geroy Simon provide the Bombers with a sense that a replacement to [Milt Stegall] might be in the Bombers' midst? Great pressure all night by ends [Tom Canada] and [Gavin Walls], but we're dropping this from an 'A' after Canada's dumb -- but highly entertaining -- penalty when he yanked the flag out of the refs pants and drew an unsportsman...

We are concerned about it," [Gary Wlaschuk] said. "It's something we're definitely looking for. "We're just on the verge of extreme right now," he said. "The fire danger is very high." "We've been here for a couple of days so it's time for music," she said.
