Without being behind the scenes, it's impossible to discern whether "Tony Hawk Ride" is a case of hardware failing software or software not properly utilizing hardware.

At least on appearance, it isn't due to shoddy hardware workmanship. To the contrary, the board controller that ships with "Ride" — picture a wireless skateboard deck sans wheels — feels durable enough to easily outlast the mountain of iffy plastic musical instruments that paved its way. It looks good, too — like a sophisticated piece of electronics instead of just another one-trick toy.

A long-awaited video surveillance system, designed to enhance student safety and improve campus security at James Logan High School, will become operational this week.

A total of 24 cameras have been installed, at various points throughout the campus as well as the new Performing Arts Center, the football stadium, the swimming and tennis complexes and the athletic fields behind the school. Administrators were trained today, and parents, students and staff are being notified – by telephone and in the school newsletter – that the cameras are going into operation.
