NSIDC Notes
NSIDC has received unofficial notification from the National Science Foundation's Office of Polar Programs that it intends to fund NSIDC's proposal to function as the U.S. Antarctic Data Coordination Center. The activities of the Antarctic Data Coordination Center will comprise identifying existing Antarctic data sets in all disciplines, locating points of contact and preparing data descriptions (DIFs) for these data, and coordinating submittal of the descriptions to the Antarctic Master Directory (AMD) at the International Centre for Antarctic Information and Research (ICAIR) in New Zealand, and the Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) in the U.S. Data descriptions would also be obtained from researchers as they prepare for or return from field work in Antarctica.
NSIDC developed the proposal for this effort based on the involvement of R.G. Barry and C.S. Hanson in the Scientific Committee for Antarctic Research (SCAR) - Council of Managers of National Antarctic Programs (COMNAP) and its ad hoc Planning Group on Antarctic Data Management, and after similar efforts for the Arctic (e.g., the Arctic Environmental Data Directory). NSIDC has requested three years of funding at approximately 1.0 FTE for the effort.

The potential collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet and the resulting sea level change that would ensue represents a major environmental threat. The result of this collapse would be an increase in current sea level by approximately six meters; some models predict that the rate of change could be rapid, up to ten times faster than the current estimated rate of change. Over the past 100 years the rate of rise in sea level has been relatively stable with an average growth rate of approximately 2 mm/yr. Even this relatively slow rate has caused hardships on coastal economies as well as wetlands areas.
Recently a grant proposal submitted by scientists at Goddard Space Flight Center, the University of Maryland, USGS, and the Cryospheric and Polar Processes Division /Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences, University of Colorado (CPP/CIRES) was funded to map changes in the Antarctic ice sheet using Landsat imagery. This study is part of the continuing efforts of NASA's Mission to Planet Earth to understand and predict global climate change. The project will accomplish three objectives over the course of three years. The first objective will be to assess existing Antarctic ground control point data and produce sub-scenes of suitable control points for image geolocation. Included in this objective are plans to enhance and extend the ground control point library by "bridging" path-sequential images together over areas with no ground control. The second objective will be to generate an interpretation of the dynamic history of the potentially unstable West Antarctic ice sheet by mapping features on the Ross Ice Shelf. Flow- generated features survive for centuries within the ice shelf, therefore a 1000-year record of ice flow variations may be found in the Ross Ice Shelf which can then be used to determine other details of ice-sheet history. The final objective of this project will be to map ice outflow velocities of glaciers along the West Antarctic coast as far inland as possible, and look for changes in outflow velocity over the Landsat era. This last objective will be under the direction of Dr. Ted Scambos at CPP/CIRES and NSIDC.
The steps involved in the work to be accomplished at CIRES will begin with gathering available Landsat MSS and TM images and setting up a catalog of the best images for this research. The next task will be to use the images collected to map the outflow velocities using a cross-correlation feature-matching algorithm. This technique uses small surface features within an image as markers, then searches for similar features on a subsequent image and calculates the correlation index between the two. The displacement is then measured to subpixel accuracy by interpolating on the peak correlation values. Dividing the displacement by the time interval between the images gives the velocity. These measurements can then be used to produce an accurate mapping of the surface velocity field for that specific area. Accurate strain rate fields can also be mapped in areas with good velocity data. Included in the funded work are plans to enhance the capability and portability of the software. Subject to approval by NSIDC's User Working Group, this project plans to make available the processed images and ice velocity data for the West Antarctic coast. In addition, NSIDC plans to archive and distribute the expanded ground-control-point library (in conjunction with USGS).
Overall the goal of this project is to produce data that can be used as a benchmark for future studies concerning the stability of the West Antarctic ice sheet.
For further information concerning this project, please contact: Ted Scambos (email@example.com).
NSIDC, in collaboration with the Polar Science Center (PSC), University of Washington, has just released a new CD-ROM containing snow, meteorological, and solar radiation data from the Soviet North Pole drifting stations. Arctic Ocean Snow and Meteorological Observations from Drifting Stations, 1937, 1950-1991, Version 1.0 contains: snow depth, snow surface temperature, snow density, snow water equivalent; meteorological data (air temperature, relative humidity, surface pressure, wind speed and direction, U-V components of wind, total and low cloud amounts, precipitation type and amounts); and solar radiation data (diffuse, direct, global, reflected, and net radiation, and albedo.) North Pole (NP)-1 operated from 22 May 1937 through 19 Feburary 1938. NP-2 began on 22 April 1950, and at least one station, sometimes two, operated from that date until the end of NP-31 on 31 March 1991.
Figure 1 represents the daily positions of the Soviet North Pole stations 3 through 31, which were manned continuously from 1954 to 1991.
Data on the CD-ROM are daily averages, or 3-hourly measured values; spatial resolution is dependent on the movement of the ice floes on which the stations were located. Both original data, as digitized from station logbooks at the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute, (AARI), St. Petersburg, Russia, and daily averaged data are included. Position data were linearly interpolated from the original irregular position observations.
Meteorological instrument descriptions, including technical specifications regarding accuracy at low temperatures, are included in the documentation, which is provided on the CD-ROM. All the data are in ASCII files and are readable on any type of computer platform.
Rescue and organization of the meteorological data at AARI and PSC/University of Washington, and the CD-ROM development portion of this project, were funded by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as a part of the NOAA National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service (NESDIS) Environmental Science Data and Information Management (ESDIM) Program. Additional funding for snow data rescue and preparation was provided by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Funding for the rescue, publication and access to the solar radiation data included on this CD-ROM was provided by the U.S. National Science Foundation, Division of Atmospheric Sciences. This CD-ROM is an Arctic Climate System (ACSYS) contribution.
The CD-ROM is available at no charge. For further information or to request the CD-ROM, contact us at:

The final CD-ROM volume in the SSM/I F11 brightness temperatures series is now complete, and was shipped early in September to all subscribers. The time period covered is only one month. We elected to finish out the F11 SSM/I series with volume 16 even though there are not many data files, and to begin a new series for the F13 SSM/I. Let us know if you have any questions or if you did not receive volume 16 as expected.
There is a typographical error in a subroutine of the FORTRAN program 'locate.for' which is used with the DMSP SSM/I Brightness Temperatures and Sea Ice Concentration Grids. The error will not affect the output of values when the program is used with these data sets, but it may make a difference if the program is used with data in other projections.
The program 'locate.for' was written for use with the SSM/I brightness temperatures and sea ice concentration data sets, and is used to transform X,Y coordinates of the SSM/I polar stereographic grid to latitude/longitude coordinates, and to convert geodetic latitude/longitude to X,Y coordinates. Two subroutines 'mapll.for' and 'mapxy.for' originally written by a source outside NSIDC, are used in conjunction with 'locate.for'. An equation (see below) in the most recently revised version (1990) of 'mapll.for' has a typographical error.
In the subroutine there are two equations to compute the variable 'rho' - one is applied when the parameter 'slat' (standard latitude -no distortion) is equal to 90 degrees, and the other is used when standard latitude is not 90°(as in the case of the SSM/I brightness temperatures and sea ice concentration grids where the standard latitude is 70°). The error in 'mapll.for' is in the first equation.
Because the second equation has been used for the calculation of latitude and longitude values in the brightness temperature and sea ice data sets, the incorrect equation does not apply. However, those users who may want to employ this program with other data should make note of the correct equation.
The original equation can be found in J.P. Snyder, 1982. Map Projections Used by the U.S. Geological Survey. U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1532. U.S. Government Printing Office, p. 162, equation 17-33.
For more information on the gridding methods used for the SSM/I data set at NSIDC, please see DMSP SSM/I Brightness Temperatures and Sea Ice Concentration Grids for the Polar Regions. Users Guide, 1990, rev. 1996, p. 31.
The latest versions of the subroutines are available via ftp.
You may have received by mail a questionnaire regarding HDF (Hierarchical Data Format) products at NSIDC, or EASE-Grid SSM/I products at NSIDC. Or you may have seen these questionnaires on our Web site (/). We have received many responses, and we are tabulating them during September. If you have not responded and wish to do so, we will still gladly accept Web, e-mail, fax, or regular mail responses. Results of the two surveys will be reported in the Winter 1996 issue of NSIDC Notes.
The International Programme for Antarctic Buoys (IPAB) held its first meeting at the Scott Polar Research Institute, Cambridge, UK, on 1-3 August 1996. This federation of scientists from about 15 countries is undertaking a focused program of sea ice motion studies using instrumented buoys deployed on ice floes (or in some cases in open water) in the Southern Ocean, as near to the coastline of Antarctica as is practicable. The study is ongoing, and is a part of the World Climate Research Programme of the World Meteorological Organization. The aim is to provide observations around the entire Antarctic continent. The U.S. contribution will be in the form of technical advice to participants from the National Ice Center, Suitland, MD, and data archiving and distribution services from WDC-A/NSIDC. We will collaborate with the Programme Coordinator, Dr. I. Allison of the Antarctic Climate Research Centre, Hobart, to help publicize the availability of data from the buoys, and to ensure data access for users outside the IPAB. C. Hanson of WDC-A/NSIDC attended the Cambridge meeting.
WDC-A/NSIDC has been funded by the National Science Foundation to implement a pilot "Global Geocryological Database" (GGD). This effort provides start-up funding for the assembly of priority permafrost and frozen ground datasets in Russian archives, and for WDC-A/NSIDC to inventory, retrieve, and organize priority datasets identified by other members of the International Permafrost Association (IPA).
Several members of the Data and Information Working Group (R.G. Barry, Chair) and Jerry Brown, IPA Secretary General, met at WDC-A/NSIDC in July to review the results of preliminary inventories, and to plan future data activities. In preparation for the 1998 Seventh International Permafrost Conference in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada, the group reconfirmed two planned activities: (1) a data workshop organized by Dr. M.J. Clark (Geodata Centre, Southampton, UK) to be held during the conference, and (2) preparation of a CD-ROM containing permafrost data and information.
The planned CD-ROM will be called CAPS - "Circumpolar Active-Layer Permafrost System: A Contribution to Global Change Research". IPA Adhering Members are being asked to contribute at least one long-term dataset for the CD-ROM, and individuals and IPA Working Groups are also invited to contribute important data to the project. Nominations for inclusion are needed by 1 December 1996.
In order to maintain a reasonable rate of progress, the IPA proposes to hold a series of small regional meetings over the next 6-12 months. The first, focused on North American data holdings, will take place in Denver/Boulder on 12-13 December 1996. Another is proposed for Pushchino, Russia, in late April 1997. There are numerous conferences in 1997 and we hope to use these as opportunities to review data submissions.
Further information on the GGD project is given in the IPA Newsletter Frozen Ground, no. 18, December, 1995, p. 12; also see the IPA Home Page: http://www.geo.uio.no/IPA/

Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 (GISP2) data continue to arrive at the ARCSS Data Coordination Center and the GISP2 Science Management Office at the University of New Hampshire. We expect all data from the GISP2 project be downloaded to NSIDC by the end of November. The data will available as soon as possible via ftp from the ARCSS site. A CD-ROM of the GISP2 and GRIP data will be released early in 1997 in conjunction with the publication of the special Journal of Geophysical Research issue devoted to the GISP2/GRIP project.
For further information, contact NSIDC User Services.
Mark Serreze, an ARCSS-funded investigator at NSIDC, is nearing commpletion of a new Arctic downwelling short-wave radiation climatology. In conjunction with this climatology, we are currently compiling all of the NSIDC Arctic radiation data to produce a composite radiation data CD-ROM. This will include short-wave, long-wave and net radiation values from stations above 50°North as well as the new Serreze climatology.
For further information, contact NSIDC User Services.
The ARCSS Data Coordination Center at NSIDC is helping bridge the gap between high-level science and secondary level (grades 9-12) studies by collaborating with Brenton Burnett, a high school teacher from Denver, Colorado, in developing high-school science curricula using ARCSS data and information. This activity provides research results to students and teachers through a WWW interface and CD-ROM publication. The release of Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 (GISP2) data in the near future provides a timely database for the initial curriculum development, with expansion to other ARCSS data in the future.
This innovative way to bring high level research results to the 9-12 community is summed up by Mr. Burnett:
We want to get students as close to real science as possible. Educational resources on the Internet could provide an ideal source for broad-scale communication between scientists and high school students. However, today many sites still use a 1950s book model of teaching instead of an interactive activity and thinking-based model which is the pedagogy of the nineties. Other sites succumb to the temptation of technoflash and lack substance and quality pedagogical grounding. Our ARCSS education mission is to provide current scientific results to students so they can manipulate, analyze and relate the science to their own lives.
This project is an important element in our long-range outreach to all communities interested in ARCSS and NSIDC data, information and products. All inquiries can be directed to Dr. David McGinnis at (303) 492-1160, (phone) or (303) 492-2468 (fax) or email@example.com (e-mail).
Eight years of Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) data were analyzed to investigate the interference which is inherent in data processed with the Atmospheric Environment Service (AES)/York sea ice concentration algorithm. By viewing the 1987-1994 SSM/I Northern Hemisphere images, significant mixel errors (pixels with a mixture of land and water, resulting in a mixed signature value) are observed along the coasts. The SSM/I daily averaged CD-ROM product distributed by NSIDC was used in conjunction with the AES/York sea ice algorithm to produce the images analyzed. The AES/York algorithm uses a linear combination of brightness temperatures from the 37 and 19 GHz channels which produces an estimation of total ice concentration and edge location. As only the CD-ROM raw brightness temperature data were used in this investigation, an assumption is necessary to conduct this analysis: the region within the study areas represents completely ice free conditions in the summer images and therefore, all sea ice concentration values in the images are treated as mixel errors.
Monthly averaged sea ice concentration images from 1987 to 1994 were used to investigate mixel error variations found in the images. The month of September typically represents the minimum Arctic sea ice concentration time period, and therefore the September images were used exclusively in this analysis, with the exception of 1994. By means of visual inspection, systematic interference was identified in the September 1994 image and consequently, the October image was substituted.
Two regional study areas were selected for detailed analysis: Hudson Bay and Scandinavia (Figure 2). These two areas were chosen due to the high intervention of mixel errors and the varying shoreline types. The Hudson Bay study area presents a more distinct boundary between land and water, whereas the Scandinavian coastline is highly complex with many small inlets and waterways (fjords). Although different, a string of pixels outlines both coastlines with anomalous sea ice concentration values. This phenomenon is most evident in the late summer/early fall images, when the sea ice extent is at a minimum. Only summer images were investigated for mixel errors, however a certain degree of interference may still occur in the winter months, masked by the appearance of sea ice. Studies should be conducted to identify whether the same effects occur with the land/sea ice boundary as with the land/water boundary. Detailed research in Hudson Bay and Scandinavia reveals that after the shoreline has been dilated the mixel errors in the images are reduced. By identifying mixel errors in the sea ice concentration images, correction procedures can be developed to improve data accuracy.
The Hudson Bay study area is located within the seasonal sea ice zone. This area produces a high proportion of mixels, yet includes a large body of water after the shoreline has been dilated the mixel errors in which contains valid sea ice concentration values in the winter months. The northern region of the Scandinavian study area is within the seasonal sea ice zone, while the southern region is free of sea ice year around. The Scandinavian study area includes part of the Atlantic Ocean coast, various inlets and gulfs, resulting in an irregular shoreline. As a result of this complex coastline, a large number of mixels occur in this region. Basic statistical measures were calculated for both study regions, however the percentage of mixel error variable describes the overall trends of the analysis (Table 1).
|Hudson Bay
This calculation was derived by determining the number of pixels containing false sea ice concentration values within the study areas, then dividing by the total number of pixels representing ocean.
The original land mask distributed by NSIDC, along with the SSM/I data, was dilated to investigate the effect of mixels concentrated along the land/water interface. National Institutes of Health Image 1.51 software was used to dilate the binary land mask image; by increasing the shoreline one pixel in width, the percentage of mixel errors is significantly reduced (Table 2). The average percentage of mixel errors reduced in the Scandinavian study area was 71.8%, and 77.8% in the Hudson Bay study area.
|Hudson Bay
These results reflect the regional differences in the shoreline and spatial distribution of mixel errors. The majority of mixels in the Hudson Bay study area occur at the land/water boundary; whereas in the Scandinavian study area, the mixels extend into the small waterways along the coast. Therefore, it is expected that the percentage reduction in mixels would be less in the Scandinavian than the Hudson Bay region. Results from both areas show that significant reductions in mixel errors can be obtained when eliminating values within one pixel of the shoreline. Within this investigation, an overall average of 74.8% of the mixel interference is reduced from the SSM/I sea ice concentration images when the dilated land mask was applied. For presentation or statistical purposes, the sea ice concentration images must be manipulated to reduce mixel interference. The results of this study suggest that any investigations conducted with the SSM/I sea ice concentration images should discount values within one pixel of the coast for any comparative studies.

Geophysical Research Letters, 23(13), p.1,677-1,680, used an expanded land mask to minimize the effect of different magnitudes of land contamination between SMMR and SSM/I.
NSIDC is currently investigating methods of identifying and masking land-contaminated pixels.

Cute Flats are a Little Stiff
"I love ballet flats. I probably have 15 pairs! These are SO CUTE. They make your foot look tiny and are fun but still professional. My only complaint is that they are a little stiff and I blister easily. I wear them with the little low cut lacy sock inserts and my feet stay comfy all day. The foot bed has a nice soft cushion which keeps these from feeling TOO flat and thin. Very nice shoe for the price."

Really like them!
"They look great on! Not too wide or too narrow, but the back does rub on your achilles tendon. I'm kind of used to stuff like that, and I am assuming I'll either get used to it or the back will eventually get softer. If you can move on from that, I totally recommend them! They are very, very cute and look great with pretty much any outfit!"

By TORY KILLIANHuntington
I wanted to respond to Professor Jeffery O. Durrant's opinion piece that ran in the Sept. 3 issue of the Emery County Progress. I know that Durrant was speaking about the various "processes" swirling around Governor Leavitt's San Rafael National Monument proposal, but I feel that no discussion of this issue is complete without at least a mention of another "process" going on. I'm speaking about the Resource Management Plan amendment that the BLM is currently working on.
This very important plan amendment will affect all BLM land in Emery County, even those outside the Swell. It will change everything, including the still-in-limbo travel plan, grazing allotments, oil and gas development and even dispersed camping rules. If that wasn't enough, it looks likely that the BLM will try and create new Wilderness Study Areas. I understand the BLM is even considering recommending Eagle Canyon as a wild and scenic river. Unbelievable!
It just burns me up that our political representatives are spending so much time and effort on trying to sell us on this risky monument idea when they should be focusing their efforts on more important matters. Imagine what progress Emery County could make if our leaders focused that kind of attention on helping residents participate in the RMP planning process.
I encourage all Emery County citizens to get involved in the BLM's planning activities. Floyd Johnson at the BLM can give you an update on what's going on. Since our leaders seem to be paying so much attention to other matters, it's up to us to make sure no one drops the ball. Call the BLM at 636-3600. Tell them you want an update on what's happening.

I was surving at the internet and found some movies i´ve never heard about. The only one i know is I ll be home for Christmas.
I ll be home for Christmas
In the spirit of the season, Disney presents the hilarious comedy adventure that celebrates the believer in all of us. Jake Wilkinson (Jonathan Taylor Thomas), a self-centered college student, has one thing on his mind -- get home for Christmas dinner or forfeit the vintage Porsche his father promised him. Just days before his deadline, Jake awakens in the California desert -- stranded and penniless, wearing a Santa suit and white beard! Desperate to claim his gift, he flies, crawls, cons, races, bullies, and even sleighs his way east. But his nonstop mission turns into a nonstop comedy of errors as a multitude of colorful and offbeat strangers look to "Santa" for help and kindness. The closer Jake gets to home, the closer he gets to the true meaning of Christmas and the importance of family. I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS is a trip your entire family will enjoy taking all year long!
The Christmas Cottage
Returning home from college one Christmas, young artist Thomas Kinkade (Jared Padalecki) is dismayed to learn that attempts to promote local tourism have failed and his mother (Marcia Gay Harden) is dangerously close to losing the family cottage to foreclosure. Inspired by his mentor, Glen (Peter O'Toole), a famous artist who lives next door, Thom accepts a job painting a mural of his small, idyllic hometown. With Glen's help, Thom not only discovers his calling as the Painter of Light(tm) but also helps the town rediscover the true spirit of Christmas in this nostalgic, humorous and heartwarming true story destined to become a holiday classic.
The year without a Santa Claus
When his devious head elf, Sparky (Kattan), tells him that he must "keep up with the times" no matter how materialistic Santa Claus (Goodman) resists, fearing that the holiday has become far too commercial. Convinced that no one believes in him anymore and that people have forgotten the real meaning of Christmas, Santa decides to take the year off and not deliver any gifts, much to the dismay of his two closest elves, Jingle (Suplee) and Jangle (Griffin). When Santa tells them that he doesn't think there are any children left who still care about the true spirit of Christmas, the two elves decide to prove him wrong. But their efforts are complicated by Heatmiser and Snowmiser, the two feuding sons of Mother Nature (Kane), whose help Jingle and Jangle will need if they want to save Christmas.
The town that banned Christmas
The competition heats up at the annual Greenlawn Christmas Decorating Contest when Norbert Bridges moves to town and stirs up trouble with the reigning champion Donnie Manning. But when the town outlaws Christmas after things get out of control it s up to the feuding neighbors to save Christmas.
All i want for Christmas
Christmas is a time for family and in ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS, that is all young Ethan and his little sister really want. When their parents get divorced, the two kids, along with the aid of their grandmother, construct a plan to get their parents back together.
The dog who saved Christmas
The Bannister familys new addition, Zeus (voiced by Mario Lopez) a former K-9 police hero, appears to be less than the dependable guard dog the family needs. However, when two burglars (led by Dean Cain) set out to break into the Bannisters home while theyre away for Christmas, Zeus seizes the chance to be a hero, proving every dog even this one has his day.

When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton's type happens to be girls named Katherine. And when it comes to girls named Katherine, Colin is always getting dumped. Nineteen times, to be exact. He's also a washedup child prodigy with ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a passion for anagrams, and an overweight, Judge Judy-obsessed best friend. Colin's on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which will predict the future of all relationships, transform him from a fading prodigy into a true genius, and finally win him the girl. Letting expectations go and allowing love in are at the heart of Colin's hilarious quest to find his missing piece and avenge dumpees everywhere.
I HIGHLY recommend watching his vlogs. Trust me, you'll laugh.

Better free up some space
Mobile gaming has come a long way since the days of playing Snake on a phone the size of a brick. Now there are iOS games with visuals that rival the graphics on some console games and million dollar sellers made by single-person development teams. Mobile games earned a rep for being ultra-casual experiences bogged down by sleazy microtransactions, but the landscape has changed dramatically, now offering a wide selection of sophisticated titles. There are some fantastic mobile games out there and developers are just getting started experimenting with even more inventive and intriguing ideas. The tricky part is finding them.
The App Store is so overstuffed with games that it can be next to impossible to find something that suits your taste. Were letting you bypass the drudge work of discovery and get on with expanding your mobile gaming horizons by setting you up with 25 of the best games currently on the App Store. And no, Candy Crush isn't one of them.
25. Wayward Souls
Secret of Mana, Diablo, and Dark Souls are all action RPGs, but they could hardly feel more different. That's why it's extra impressive that Wayward Souls, which blends the pixelated art style and charge-up driven combat of Secret of Mana, the randomized dungeons of Diablo, and the dark tone and difficult combat of Dark Souls, puts it all together so well. If you've played Mage Gauntlet, Wayward Souls is its bigger, meaner cousin, and will have you cursing at your iPhone for all the right reasons.
24. Ridiculous Fishing
There are lots of ridiculous things about Ridiculous Fishing, but the first you'll likely notice is that you actually want to avoid all the fish. You'll use gyroscopic controls to evade increasingly exotic sea creatures as your hook sinks lower and lower, but once you run out of line or hit something the process is reversed, and you try to hook as many fish as possible on the way back up. From there you naturally whip your haul out of the ocean and gun them down in mid-air for big cash rewards, which you can then spend on new fishing gear. Also it has its own Twitter for seagulls and sailors. Ridiculous.
23. The World Ends With You
The World Ends With You was tailor-made for the DS, as its combat makes specific and constant use of the system's dual screen set-up. When making the transition to the single screens of iOS devices, Square Enix completely overhauled the battle system, transforming its gameplay into something completely different yet equally as entertaining. The twisting, suspenseful story makes the transition over fully intact, and all of the visuals and music have gotten the HD treatment. While some may pine for the purity of the original DS experience, the iOS version of The World Ends With You is an equally valid way to experience this modern classic.
22. Hitman GO
When you think of a Hitman game, the first thing that comes to your mind probably isnt a board game using inanimate action figures. In Hitman GO, you have the kinds of goals youd expect from a Hitman game, but instead of using weapons and disguises to eliminate your targets, you have to carefully navigate enemy patterns and traps as you make your way to your goal. It may not be what you expect, but once you dive in, Hitman GO is surprisingly entertaining.
21. Spaceteam
"Increase Artificial Grill to 3." "Set Coarse Twine to 2." "Engage Flashsupport." Such instructions are typical of Spaceteam, an interstellar adventure where you and a group of friends try to pilot a spaceship as it slowly - inevitably - falls apart. On each screen are a series of knobs and switches with silly names. Instructions flash at the top, like the ones shown above, but they don't correlate to your instruments. They for someone else's. This means each player is constantly shouting nonsensical technobabble at the group in the hopes that someone will finally engage the freaking Flashsupport.
20. Knightmare Tower
Saving the princess is tough business, especially when the only way to reach said princess is to launch yourself via rocket toward the top of a tower while being chased by an encroaching pool of lava. Luckily, you're also being harassed by a bunch of monsters, which you can spring off of to keep your momentum going. They also drop coins, which you can collect and spend to upgrade your launch speed, weapons, armor, and more. You launch, get a little higher, die, upgrade, and repeat. Suddenly, you discover you've been playing Knightmare Tower for two straight hours, and you're pretty OK with that.
19. Plants vs. Zombies
The zombie apocalypse is happening. What's your best defense against the undead horde? Plants, apparently. Your garden has taken it upon itself to fight off the army of zombies shambling toward your doorstep, and you'll have to strategically organize your long range Peashooters, lane-blocking Wall-nuts, and sunshine-spewing Sunflowers if you want to succeed. As you progress, you'll get access to more powerful plants like Melon-pults and Gatling Peas to knock out armored football zombies, Zombie Yetis, and eventually, the dreaded Dr. Zomboss. With its charming characters and gameplay that will easily steal away the hours, Plants vs Zombies is one of those mobile games that everyone needs to play.
18. Republique
Most attempts to bring the console experience to mobile devices feel half-baked, usually thanks to a less-than-adequate virtual control pad. That's what makes Republique such a breath of fresh air, combining the unique interface provided by touch devices with the production values of a big-budget console title. As an unnamed security camera operator, you've been contacted by Hope, a prisoner of a despotic nation-state ripped from the pages of 1984, and you have to switch from camera to camera, tapping the screen to guide Hope past guards, uncovering the mystery behind her capture. With fantastic voice acting and an impressive pedigree behind it, Republique is some of the best evidence for iOS as a legitimate gaming platform.
17. Crossy Road
Crossy Road in two words: Endless Frogger. But that's not the only reason why it's one of the best games on iOS right now. Crossy Road takes the Frogger formula and throws a whole bunch of silly at it. Avoid cars as a cliche frog or chicken, or hop across logs as Frankenstein's monster or a wizard, and the environment will completely transform based on the character you pick. The best part? It's a free-to-play game, but it's not a jerk about it, letting you unlock virtually all of its characters over time simply by playing, and never shoving ads in your face (unless you want to earn a few extra coins by checking one out).
16. Year Walk
On the surface, Year Walk seems simple: you play as a young man who goes on an unsettling, atmospheric quest to learn his future (called a Year Walk), solving creepy puzzles and encountering bizarre beasts along the way. But as it turns out, Year Walking is real, those beasts are steeped in Nordic mythology, and learning as much as you can will be the difference between life and death. The game likes to stay mysterious though, so the free companion app (full of all sorts of information about the myths you'll encounter and secret clues only the eagle-eyed will catch) is essential to your journey. Trust me: in a place this weird, you'll need all the help you can get.
If you've ever wanted to command your own starship and go where no one has ever gone before, you need to play FTL. You control a starship crew as they jump from star system to star system trying to escape a wave of incoming enemy ships. As you make stops along the way you'll need to find supplies, weapons, and additional crew members to help you survive encounters with enemy ships, ship-boarding space pirates, and naturally occurring hazards like asteroid fields. With random events in which anything can happen, and situations that can have your survival hanging by a thread, FTL is a thrilling space adventure you don't want to miss.
14. Canabalt
The game that gave birth to the 'endless runner' genre, the first is still the best. Sporting a simplistic yet striking monochromatic aesthetic, Canabalt places you in the shoes of little pixelated dude as he attempts to outrun a dystopian nightmare, your only input being a tap on the screen to hop over obstacles or leap across gaps. But as far as you might run, the only escape is death, which isn't a matter of if, but when. Its addictive simplicity already made it a must play, but an update in 2014 added multiple new modes and even local multiplayer, ensuring its place among the best iOS has to offer.
13. Plague, Inc.
If you remember the old flash game Pandemic 2 (or, more likely, the meme it birthed), then Plague Inc. will feel like a blast from the past. A shinier version of that same basic concept, Plague Inc. is a smart, strategic title where you control the spread of a disease by increasing its infectiousness and lethality with an eye toward eradicating all of humanity. Morbid as that may sound, it ends up being more fun than it rightly should, and countering the world's best efforts to cure your disease with quick wits and careful planning feels surprisingly rewarding. Oh, and you really can infect Madagascar in this one. That alone is worth the download.
12. Threes
The objective of Threes is simple: combine different tiles together on a four-by-four grid by matching similar multiples of three. It starts out small, but threes quickly turn into sixes, which turn into 12's, and so on. There are few feelings in life as satisfying as building these numbers ever higher, then finally squishing two 384's together like a pro. Threes belongs in the pantheon of great puzzle games like Tetris - it's easy to play for a few minutes at a time, but it's deep enough that you'll want to keep coming back. You're also unlikely to find a game that can make numbers as adorable as they are in Threes.
11. A Dark Room
You find yourself in a cold, dark room. So you light a fire. It needs wood, so you get more from the forest. Stoke the fire. Gather wood. Stoke the fire. More people show up. A village begins to form, and its people begin to work for you. And so the game expands, and to reveal any more would spoil its biggest, most exciting secrets. A Dark Room's bleak, minimalist adventure slowly unspools as you play, hiding far more under its surface than it initially lets on. Who knew a handful of rectangles and a few lines of dialogue could be so captivating?
10. Fallout Shelter
Can't wait for Fallout 4? Bethesda figured it would be tough on Fallout fans to have to wait for the new open world adventure in the wasteland, so the developer created Fallout Shelter to hold us all over. In it, you are the overseer of your own Vault and all of its inhabitants. It's up to you to provide them with all of the necessities they need, maintain high morale, and keep them safe from the dangers outside. Control everything from food supplies and vault residents' jobs, to which residents reproduce to create new vault dwellers. Yeah, it gets a little messed up.
9. Infinity Blade
If you thought mobile gaming was for simple visuals and cartoony graphics, take a look at Infinity Blade. The original Infinity Blade - which is a much more straightforward experience than the sequel - is like playing the old NES Punch Out! but with medieval knights and swords instead of questionably racist fighters and boxing gloves. You'll face enemies in one-on-one battles that will test your ability to dodge, block, and strike your foes with split-second timing. With victory comes the spoils of your enemy, earning you new weapons and gear to take on more powerful challenges and eventually a confrontation with the keeper of the Infinity Blade himself.
8. 80 Days
Lots of games tout the ability to choose your own adventure, but few are as well-written and overflowing with possibilities as 80 Days. Inspired by the Jules Verne classic and given a steampunk twist, 80 Days puts you in the shoes of Monsieur Phileas Fogg's attendant Passepartout, who must manage the expeditions funds and find the fastest routes across the globe. You start in London, but where you go from there is entirely up to you. Do you take the Trans-Siberian Railway to cut through Russia? Or do you hop on a hot air balloon and sail across the Middle East? Start a conversation with an alluring redhead, follow revolutionaries, or just wander the city at night. The choices - and repercussions - are yours.
7. Framed
Equal parts game and animated comic, Framed tells the story of a spy trying to outrun the law, only to get caught or die on every digital page. That is, if the page is left how you found it - your job is to rearrange the frames of the comic in a way that helps your spy bypass police, dodge deadly obstacles, and make it to the exit without getting cuddly with any bullets. Slick, clever, and trickier than you might expect, Framed tests your brainpower by making otherwise familiar concepts into something you really have to work to get your head around.
6. Angry Birds
You wouldn't think that flinging colorful birds at green snorting pigs would be so much fun, but we just can't get enough of it. The concept is simple: You pull your bird back in the sling shot and try to destroy all of the pigs hiding in their forts with carefully placed, feathered projectiles. Each bird has a different ability, allowing them to split off into a destructive spread, explode on impact, or increase velocity in mid air. It's like being a wrecking crew with super powered wrecking balls. And if you aren't into the standard birds and pigs aesthetic, you might want to give the adorable Angry Birds Star Wars a shot.
5. Lifeline
Your smartphone isn't just a device that can look up local cuisine and get directions. It's also capable of intercepting interstellar transmissions, and in Lifeline, your phone becomes a portal to a gripping sci-fi tale set thousands of lightyears away. Taylor was a simple student on a scientific field trip before his ship crash landed on a distant planet, and you are his sole contact, offering advice and helping to guide him through this harsh, alien world. The story plays out in real-time, too, as you wait for Taylor to check in with the results of his actions, whether he's able to make it across a massive crater, or simply survive through the night. Lifeline isn't just a damn good story, it pushes the boundaries of how we can tell and experience those stories.
4. You Must Build a Boat
Look, you just have to build a boat. It's simple. The hard work - battening down the hatches, splicing the mainbrace, et cetera - will all happen automatically, you just have to plunge deep into randomly generated dungeons, using only your wits and a big ol' match-3 board to overcome its challenges and loot the materials. You'll even get some help from the monstrous crew you recruit along the way (some of whom you can only find if you learn the right secret), and you can spend some of that gold you find on upgrades to make your future dungeon dives a little easier. Just don't forget - it's all about building that boat.
3. Hearthstone
Blizzard's immensely successful CCG works just as well on mobile as it does on PC - maybe even better, since you can take it with you wherever you go (which is certain to be the bane of your daily productivity). Hearthstone has all the makings of an excellent card game: easy-to-learn mechanics, a wealth of different deck types, and the strategic depth that comes with an ever-changing competitive metagame. But it's also got a pristine level of polish that you won't find in a tabletop duel, like exciting visual effects, amusing widgets to fiddle with during the opponent's turn, and unique card mechanics that wouldn't work in the physical realm. You don't have to know (or even particularly like) Warcraft lore to get a kick out of this fiendishly addictive, relentlessly fun card battler.
Download Hearthstone from iTunes now
2. Her Story
We've sung the praises of Her Story before, and we'll happily do so again. A truly thrilling mystery centered on the testimony of a young woman being questioned by police following a murder, Her Story is delicately crafted to emphasize player intuition above all else. There are many paths to the truth, and no neon-decked clues pointing you in any one direction. It's a game that tests your mind by letting you stretch it, emulating the actual work of a detective better than almost any detective game. As in, ever. Yes, it's really that good.
1. Device 6
Device 6 is a one of a kind game - specifically, the kind that makes you turn the screen away because you don't want it looking at you. A puzzle game walking in the skin of a text adventure, Device 6 is the best iPhone game you can buy not just because of its clever design elements, surprisingly deep psychological tale, and truly difficult puzzles you'll feel damn brainy for solving. It's also one of the few mobile games that couldn't exist on any other platform, because it knows mobile's strengths and uses them brilliantly. Oh, and don't worry if it starts learning a bit too much about you along the way. That's just part of the fun.

Asthma Devices and How They Work
A diskus is a device that resembles a hockey puck. Examples include Advair and the Ventolin diskus.
When this type of inhaler is opened, a mouthpiece and a lever appear. Pushing in the lever loads a dose and the medication is inhaled through the mouthpiece. If you need to inhale a second dose, the diskus has to be closed and re-opened to reposition the lever.
Also known as an aerochamber, a spacer is a device that helps optimize the use of a Meter Dose Inhaler (MDI). It is a clear, plastic tube with a receptacle that holds the MDI in one end and a mouthpiece with a one-way valve. Spacers make the use of an MDI easier and also allow the medication to penetrate deeper into the lungs and minimize its deposition in the mouth and throat. Studies show that an aerochamber delivers anywhere from 3 to 5 times the amount of the dose into the lungs when compared with an MDI alone.
Masks are usually necessary for infants, children and those who cannot seal their lips around the mouthpiece of a spacer. However, they provide a surface that attracts the medication, and can cause some of the dose to be deposited on the mask. Although using a spacer with a mask is far superior than using the MDI alone, the mask can be looked at as "training wheels"; very useful when necessary, but removed when ready.
A nebulizer is a machine that uses oxygen or ultrasonic power to break medications up into tiny aerosolized particles that are then inhaled through a mask or mouthpiece.
Benefits of Using a Nebulizer
-It's a very passive way of inhaling the medication that doesn't take a lot of skill or effort.
-If a child is too young for puffers or a person has difficulties manipulating inhalers, using a nebulizer may be the only way to deliver the medication to their lungs.
-A nebulizer can also deliver large quantity of medication at a time and different drugs can be mixed in the nebulizer cup and inhaled together.
Drawbacks of a Nebulizer
– Some of the dose gets trapped in the upper airway and the throat.
– Harder to transport than an inhaler
– More difficult to clean and maintain
– Take more time to deliver each dose (usually 10-15 minutes).
– May have to manually measure the dose.
Peak Flow Meters
A peak flow meter is a small, hand-held device that measures the person's ability to breath out air. The peak flow meter measures the maximum speed of an exhalation, also known as peak respiratory flow rate (PRFR).
Peak flow meters are not used to diagnose asthma, because peak flows vary from person to person and are affected by height, weight, age, gender and even genetics. The do however provide a frame of reference to help you monitor how well your asthma is controlled.
A peak flow meter may be beneficial if:
•You have recently been diagnosed with asthma and need a visual reading to help you understand how your symptoms relate to your lung function.
•You have moderate or severe asthma and would like to use your peak flow reading as another sign to identify what zone of your asthma action plan you are in.
•You are a visual person who would like a tool to quantify your symptoms.
•You are taking care of someone who has a difficulty vocalizing when his or her symptoms are worsening.
•Your doctor advises that you use one so that he or she can monitor your symptoms easier.
Before purchasing a peak flow meter, ask your doctor or asthma educator how to use it and how to interpret the results. When using a peak flow meter, it is good to have a place where you can write down the results so that they can be reviewed with your doctor or asthma educator.Image courtesy of Alberta Children's Hospital.

The Easton EQ40 Ice Hockey Skates offer a great value with excellent performance at a reasonable price. The EQ40 offers many of the same features and construction as the EQ50 ice skates, such as the Fusion 2.0 foams in the quarter panels, Uni-body construction, and Ideal fit system. The greatest difference is that the EQ40 skates feature Texalium composite in the embed zones, and feature a micro fiber liner.
The Synergy EQ40 is built with Easton's new Hybrid Fusion technology. This technology allows Easton to laminate a supportive, composite outer upper with formable, inner foam. Easton has used their Uni-body construction to mold one-piece of the fusion foam 2.0. The Fusion Foam 2.0 has unbelievable heat moldable properties, to offer a true custom fit. The EQ40 features three key composite embed zones using a Texalium glass composite. The side wing embed zones allows for a more responsive and explosive feel, while the embedded flex tendon and heel give a solid stable feel.
As for the out of the box fit, the EQ40 offers Easton's Ideal-Fit System. This system encompasses the foot with anatomically molded foams. Easton used molded foams to drastically increase the initial comfort of the skate, and to accommodate foot types that just didn't seem to fit properly in the stealth series.
The Synergy EQ40 will be complete with Easton's innovative DryFlow outsole. DryFlow outsoles feature vents, which release moisture and excess heat. This allows the skate to remain dryer which will help keep the skate lighter late in the game. As well, removing excess moisture will increase the lifetime of the skate.

Comments: Excellent pair of skates. They're a lot stiffer and seem more responsive than the EQ 20's that I was wearing to stick time. They also seem to sit a tad differently as well and forces me to be more on my toes when skating. I definitely feel a lot quicker and can tell there's more power in my stride. The skates felt good when I first tried them on but now they feel great after baking them. I'd recommend these to anyone who has worn the newer line of Easton Synergy skates.
From: Darren
Comments: I wore the original Stealth S9s for about 4 1/2 years and loved the more narrow fit of the Eastons vs. other skates I've owned. Bauers (I had Vapor XX) tend to be wider and the Reebok e-Pro runner seemed to keep me from getting over the tops of my skates enough to max my speed. The Eastons are great at that with their runner. As for the EQ40, they were a marked upgrade from my S9s so they came quite a bit stiffer than the lesser skates. I had them baked and that drew them in to make them tighter across my foot and fit snug. Yes, they're nice out of the box, but get them baked!! I did have to make one adjustment with the thicker tongue in that I have to wear it outside of my shin guards. This allows me more forward flex for getting over my skates. Once I made this change, it significantly reduced the upper ankle stiffness and I was able to skate faster. So, after a 4-game tournament and a men's B league game, I think I'm set! I recommend these unless you truly need something more akin to pro performance. Easton quality has improved dramatically and their skates and helmets should be top considerations for any competitive skater.
From: Rusy, TN
Comments: I purchased these skates in early May not too long after they came out and am absolutely in love with them! I had been wearing Vapor X30s and figured it was time for a change -- since I was having issues with the X30s (not sized properly and too heavy), I wanted to try something different and found that Easton's new overhaul on their hockey equipment to be just what I was looking for. These skates are lightweight and for what you get in this skate, the price is awesome. They're super responsive, keep your feet dry and cool, are comfortable and look pretty fly. I found the break in period to be nonexistent -- haven't baked them and after a few skates they feel great. I even blocked a few shots off the outside of my foot and the boot absorbed 98% of the shot. Barely felt it. I have yet to really find a problem with these skates, except the differences in the feel of the blade, which took some getting use to after only wearing Bauers. One suggestion though: I know (well, have heard that) people have had issues with the bolts (that hold the blade holder to the boot) rusting out. After every use, I take the footbed out and let them dry. The dry flow system is great but it's better to be safer than sorry. If you take out the footbed, it lets the excess moisture that didn't exit out through the bottom completely exit from the skate. Besides that, I've got no complaints on my end. Easton has won me over with what they've been doing with their stuff. A+++++++ all around.
From: Leah, New York, USA
Comments:I purchased the EQ40 Skates about 2 months ago, I had a pair of Reebok 5k's before and the were breaking down after 1 year of heavy use, so i figured i would upgrade within my budget, I had no intent of even looking at the easton skates, however the sales rep at my local hockey shop told me a little about the skate, so i tried them on and instantly knew they were the skate for me, I have played 6 games on them and multiple drop ins, the break in was great, almost no pain at all. they are plenty lighter than any other skate i have had in the past, so far so good. I would recommend this skate to anybody. its a nice stiff boot, and still comfortable.

Gambler EZ Swimmer 7pk
Looking for a smaller profile swimbait with great action, the Gambler EZ Swimmer is the perfect choice. The little brother of the popular Big EZ, it measures in at just 4-1/4" and its segmented tail provides plenty of thumping swimming action. Available in several colors, rig the Gambler EZ Swimmer on a belly weighted hook or with a screw-in weight and just add water. Its erratic swimming action will do the rest.

Comments: the tail is stiff bit easily fixed. Try boiling thetailsection in water, ads incredible action & straightens out any crooked ones. After it has incredible action falling and slow retrieve.
From: Jeff: WI 8/11/15
Comments: I have just one complaint with the Gambler swim baits. The action on the fall is nonexistence. I want a bait that has the same action when it is falling as it does when it is swimming. The material they are made of is a little to hard and stiff. I have been using the Castaic swim baits and they have a great shaking and swimming action on the fall. I tried these baits because of all of the great reviews and I am sure that I am not the only one who thinks they are to stiff. I will stick with the keitech and Castaic swim baits until gambler softens theirs up a little bit. I love gambler products, but these I won't buy any more.
From: William: Hohenwald, TN 9/26/14
Comments: This is by far the hottest bait in my box . Try rigging it weightless and use a very slow jerkbait style retrieve .. The slower the better . It is a fish producer for sure . I have had the best luck with the Lane Toad color . Flukes are still one of my favorites but have caught fish on gambler EZ Swimmer when they wouldn't even look at the fluke . I use a 5/0 EWG hook and Also i use it with a medium action rod . I use the Skeet Reese 6'10" top water / jerkbait rod paired with the Skeet Reese baitcast reel . Good Luck
From: Darin: Mt Vernon Indiana
Comments: another great bait from tackle warehouse cooperfield is my favorite color. on June 5th 2013, I was fishing a reservoir no boats allowed on land. Threw my bait 30 feet from shore, approx. 4 pound bass that took the tail of the bait after I set the hook. Reeling it in another bass around 3 pounds hit from the right hand side. Thought I had him hooked but he dropped the bait picked it up again. Went to set the hook he was on for 10 seconds or better. It was a poor hook set on my part. Reeling it in another bass 4 pounds hit from the left hand side and hooked himself. Something I was not ready for. I weighed him and released him he was 4.2 pounds. this is a great swim bait. Tackle Warehouse is responsible for 90% of all my bass I catch. They have the best selection and colors. I bought another 3 packs yesterday. Good fishing guys. Thanks Richard
From: Richard: MOUNTAINSIDE NEW JERSEY
Comments: This is the best swimmer style bait on the market today. This bait paired up with a Fitzgerald Rods Okeechobee 7'6" Hvy rod is a great way to catch a lot of fish!!!
From: Trevor: FL
Comments: These baits are my new favorite they have more action the a skinny dipper and a little larger profile I think that helps. Copperfield and forty niner are my go to colors..
From: Brett: South FL
Comments: This works great in the grass. I fish it like I do a skinny dipper with a 5/0 EWG hook and about 1/8 ounce keel weight. The tails thumps with a slow retrieve.
From: Jack: South Florida

National Volleyball Month puts Canada's Full Time National Training Centre in spotlight
GATINEAU, Que – The men's volleyball Full Time National Training Centre Team continues its series of clinics today and Friday in the Ottawa-Gatineau area as it promotes the sport during National Volleyball Month.
This afternoon (Thursday November 24) from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., the squad will hold a volleyball clinic at Jeanne-Sauvé elementary school in Ottawa. On Friday, the team will host the 15 and 16 year-old Ottawa Maverick Boys team at its national training centre base at the Centre Sportif in Gatineau.
The two events conclude a busy month of clinics, training and matches for the team designed to help national level players, not currently under contract overseas, sharpen their skills for the upcoming season.
The objectives of National Volleyball Month are to inspire young people to play the game, teach elementary school teachers and kids fun ways to learn the sport, help the development program within schools, increase exposure of college and university programs, and create a stream of players into high school and club systems.
''We've received a great reception at all our events,'' said FTC head coach Vincent Pichette. ''For the players it's been a great experience. They all went through the high school system and many learned to play volleyball at that level so this is a great way for them to give back.''
The FTC squad has already visited this month École secondaire Franco-Cité (the Mavericks home base), where it held a demonstration match in front of 250 student on the sports-study program as well as more students from nearby elementary schools.
A few days later it hosted both a players and coaches clinic at the centre. A total of 28 coaches were at the clinic where Canada's Pichette provided tips on planning and training principles.
The Canadian team then hit the road last weekend for a match against Canadian university powerhouse Université Laval in Quebec City. Team Canada took the match 25-19, 25-19, 26-28, 26-28, 15-8 before more than a 1,000 spectators.
A day earlier the FTC squad held a training session with the Limoilou College varsity team then attended its match against College St-Jean.
On the way back home, the FTC team stopped in Montreal for an exhibition match against Université de Montréal which it won 25-20, 25-19, 25-19.
''Volleyball is a very popular sport at the participation level but we need to promote the fact that you can go further than that and hopefully convince kids that it's a sport they can pursue at another level,'' said Pichette.

Delivering classic wrap around styling, the Numa Optics Chuck Sunglasses are designed to be the last pair of sunglasses you ever have to buy. Highly acclaimed by Special Forces soldiers, backwoodsmen, anglers and skiers, they are virtually indestructible thanks to their advance Tough-Flex Frames. The shatterproof multi-layer polycarbonate lenses protect against accidental impact, and exceed military-spec ANSI z87 for impact protection and optics, Delivering perfect distortion-free ocular clarity, as well as, 100% UV400 protection from harmful UVA, UVB and UVC rays, NumaPlate hard coat, an industry-leading anti-scratch treatment, also provides added durability. Each lens features a super-slick anti-smudge hydrophobic coating as well to keep them clean and clear, and also prevents fogging. Anti-fog venting as well as no-slip-grip-rubber temple/nose pads provide added comfort. Used by professional bass angler, Scott Martin, the Numa Optics Chuck Sunglasses are backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Tough-Flex Frames - Numa warrants that under normal wear-and-tear, the frames will not break. Normal wear-and-tear includes but is not limited to: scaling a cliff face, downhill mountain biking or skiing, parachuting, hiking rugged terrain, dropping your Numas on a hard surface, accidentally stepping or sitting on them, and even letting your toddler play with them. Patented flexible, extremely lightweight and durable fibers make the frames virtually unbreakable, designed with the rigidity to provide top performance characteristics, while also having the incredible flexibility and structural memory to come back to shape after impact or pressure, they are also reinforced at what are typically vulnerable points, the hinges and bridge of nose. Weighing in at 24-31 grams, they're also so light, you'll hardly notice you have them on.
Polycabonate Lenses - Polycarbonate is preferred over glass for active sports because it is impact-resistant, shatter-resistant, scratch-resistant, lightweight and durable. Unlike glass, polycarbonate is flexible and bends, rather than shatters, when struck. Numa's lenses were tested to European ballistic standards for high-impact resistance before they were adopted by the Swiss SWAT teams as their standard issue eyewear.
Polarized Copper - Bright-ligh, high-contrast lens.
Polarized Smoke - Color-neutral, bright-light lens.
Polarized Yellow - Low-light high contrast bass lens.
Polarized Copper with Purple Mirror - Bright-light, high contrast bass lens.
-Hard Case
-Large cleaning cloth pouch
"Numa Sport Optics are crystal clear and perfect for sight fishing. And Numa's tough frames and shaterproof lenses are accident proof, which gives me peace of mind. These are the most highly engineered fishing lenses I've ever used and I consider them essential gear when I'm out on the water." - Scott Martin, 2011 Forrest Wood Cup Champion.
