A Tomball man stands accused of taking a hidden camera trick to new levels, after Tomball police recently filed charges against him.
Ronnie Hoyt Royston, 37, was charged with Improper Photography or Visual Recording, after police say he followed a 16-year-old girl around a Kohl's store, before eventually hiding a cell phone camera in her dressing room.
Police said the girl noticed the man following her around the store, on FM 2920 in Tomball. Later on, the girl and her sister went into a dressing room to try on clothes, when the girl's sister noticed a pair of men's swimming trunks underneath the bench.
"(The girl) stated that her sister found a cell phone hidden inside the shorts," court records state. "(She) stated that the cell phone's video recorder was recording and positioned as to record (the girl) undressing."
The girls mother then viewed the video on the phone, which allegedly showed Royston placing the phone inside the dressing room. The video also showed the sisters inside the dressing room.
Police took the cell phone and contacted the service provider, AT&T, who provided them with Royston's name.
Detectives then looked at store security footage, which they say showed Royston entering the store, following the girls and carrying a cell phone.
Detectives met with Royston, who admitted to being in the store that day, but said he lost his phone. Under more questioning he admitted to more, however.
"The defendant admitted to going inside the girl's dressing room with his cell phone (and he) admitted that he became aroused (prior to entering the store)," court documents stated.
That's when Royston gave detectives his cell phone unlock code, where they viewed Royston inside the dressing room, where he placed his phone down.
Police say Royston has agreed to voluntarily surrender, but as of press time he had not. Once arrested, he will be placed in the Harris County Jail on $2,000 bond.
Larry Dyke's official biography states that he has devoted his life's work to the interpretation of the beaty he sees in nature. That beauty will be on display in Tomball Sept. 15, as Dyke will appear at Sallie Fisher's Custom Frame and Art Gallery from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
"He is known for his Texas landscapes, golfing series and he does a lot of inspirational pieces," Fisher said. "He's one of the most famous artists of our time and his work is extremely sought after."
Dyke, who has a painting still residing at The Vatican, said his personal journey to art came as life brought other trials along the way.
"I would get in trouble with teachers for drawing when I was supposed to be paying attention, but then it was more of just something to do," he said.
Dyke said after trying to enter medical school without success, he settled on teaching. While he loved children, something was missing. It was then that a gallery told him they had sold two of his paintings and wanted more.
"That's when I cashed in my teacher retirement and went to work painting full time," he said.
He believes that opportunity was a blessing from God and is why he always signs his work with a special touch.
"I always add a scripture verse," he said. "I'm very grateful for this."
Dyke said the Tomball area has always been kind to him and holds a special place in his heart.
"It's always been a significant area to me," he said. "I don't do many public appearances anymore, but I do look forward to this one."
Fisher said she likes to bring Dyke to the area because his works are extremely popular.
"We try to bring him in every two years," she said. "It's an honor to be able to get him here."

Congressman Michael McCaul (R-TX) met with area business owners, community leaders and public servants last week, to talk about the state of Washington politics, as well as his new position as chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee.
McCaul stopped in on his way to meet with Gov. Rick Perry in Houston.
McCaul started off the meeting by telling members that the infighting between the two parties is due to one side being stuck in perpetual campaign mode, instead of governing. His specific target was President Obama.
"He is in a mode where he says let's talk about immigration reform, let's talk about everything but the economy," McCaul said. "He's in campaign mode."
McCaul told the audience that despite his position on the Homeland Security Committee, he hasn't been invited to the White House for meetings once.
"No attempt, despite all the talk about coming together," he said.
McCaul focused a lot of his criticism on the White House and Democrats in the Senate not passing a budget in the last four years; instead they have relied on continuing resolutions just to keep the government running.
"Four years without a budget," he said. "It's one of the most irresponsible things I have ever seen."
He also said that the recent Presidential election was about scaring voters, rather than talking about tough budgetary decisions that need to be made.
"This president won the election pandering to people that receive entitlement benefits," he said. "He was scaring the hell out of people."
McCaul said that Obama's recent attempts to demonize Republicans in the eyes of the voters don't help solve the problems facing the nation.
"We all agree that there needs to be a safety net, that we need to help those less fortunate, but it shouldn't be permanent," he said.
"Greece. That's where we are headed if we don't change our way," he added, referring to the debt riddled nation with a struggling economy.
McCaul went on to talk about his ascension to the chairman's seat of the Homeland Security Committee.
The Congressman went on to say there are numerous things he currently disagrees with the Obama administration on, specifically naming the Benghazi attacks and al-Qaeda's presence in Africa.
(The Obama administration's) narrative is that the al-Qaeda threat is over," McCaul said. "The African theater proves it is not."
McCaul said that al-Qaeda has seen resurgence since the Arab Spring uprising in North Africa, raising money and securing weapons.
"Al-Qaeda has reconstituted in North Africa, raised $100 million and grabbed arms caches from Libya, so we need to make sure that stays over there," he said. "These are serious weapons when compared to what they or the Taliban possessed."
Another concern of McCaul's are the recent calls from the Arab world to release Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, otherwise known as the Blind Sheik, who was convicted and jailed in connection with the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. McCaul said the fact that the United States has imprisoned Rahman, combined with recent al-Qaeda chatter promising "shocking" attacks in the U.S., is a big concern to him and members of his committee.
When it comes to the Benghazi attacks, McCaul said he has a hard time reconciling the stories presented by the White House and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, with other accounts presented about the attack that killed a U.S. ambassador.
"I brought up a classified security document that was sent to (Clinton's) office and she admitted that she never saw it, her staff never saw it – well, who saw it?" he said.
Harris County deputies are searching for a man they believe walked into a Tomball area office and shot a worker in the face on Valentine's morning.
The Harris County District Attorney's Office has accepted charges of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and Aggravated Assault with Serious Bodily Injury against Gary Ishmael Bolin, 61.
Detectives said that Bolin walked into a home that had been converted into office space for a nearby business at the corner of Dogwood and Hufsmith Kuykendahl Road at about 10:30 that morning and shot a 54-year-old employee in the face, after an argument quickly escalated.
Deputies claim the two men had an ongoing dispute, when the suspect walked into the offices.
They said that Bolin did not communicate with anyone else in the building, but went directly to the victim's office and minutes later pulled out a handgun.
Detectives claim that Bolin then fled from the scene in a dark red or possibly maroon over white dually pickup truck. They won't confirm what relationship the pair had, but said that Bolin does have something to do with the property. They also claimed that the two are currently involved in a civil lawsuit against each other.
The suspect was described as a white male, wearing a white cowboy hat, light colored western shirt and blue jeans.
As of press time he was still not in custody. If arrested, Bolin will be held on $60,000 bond.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office is asking that anyone with information on Bolin's whereabouts contact Crime Stoppers at 713-222-8477, or the Harris County homicide unit at 713-967-5810.

Nokia does it again: Sega's Super Monkey Ball 2 now free for Lumia users
We're not sure how Nokia does it (well, we guess money) but they've once again managed to give Lumia users something for nothing again. Sega's Super Monkey Ball 2: Sakura Edition, or just SMB2:SE for you shorthand types, is now live in the Nokia Collection and is completely free.
Now the big difference here is this is a non-Xbox Live branded version. That's good news and bad news as it means you can't grab those precious Achievements if that's your thing. Luckily for us, it's not (though our games guru Paul is surely in another camp). The good news, as we've outlined before in our ongoing Xbox games critique is this game can potentially be updated now more frequently.
SMB2:SE is a significant bump in quality over the original Super Monkey Ball though some may find the controls a bit challenging and the graphics a bit dated. The Xbox version does garner 4 out of 5 stars, which is actually pretty decent though.
The game's conceit is simple: roll a monkey around in a clear ball through mazes while picking up bananas. Makes total sense to us. You even get to choose your chimp for that custom feel. As a nice throwback to arcade games of past, SMB2:SE does work well on mobile as a good time waster with fun and challenging levels. Plus it's kind of adorable and so darn chipper it's hard not to like it.
You can pick up SMB2:SE for free here in the Nokia Collection. For those with non-Lumias, you can pick up the SMB2:SE for $2.99 with a free trial (and Xbox status) here in the Store. Thanks, Er. Akshat for the tip!

Soo happy I choose the L920! .. Thank you Nokia!
goldenpipes says:
Marketplace Selector FTW
erzhik says:
Soon, Nokia's Collection will be bigger than WP's general app store.
missionsparta says:
LMAO...but sadly, it's true
lesd777 says:
I'll check later as right now I don't see a free version.
l_n says:
I'm not seeing it, either..
jwilliams says:
Tried both ways. It says it's unavailable.
Luc4 says:
Not seeing anything in Nokia collection but QR code worked for me:-). I have a 710.
spyderzWPC says:
just aim your phone at the computer screen and follow the qr code
Pappa Ed says:
Tried that and it said to DL from phone. Link on phone says error acquiring titles.
RyanDaLyon says:
Even though it says error retrieving titles, click them anyways, it'll still Link it to the marketplace. It says that, cause there are alot of non Lumia phones.
Pappa Ed says:
"There was an error completing your request. Try again later. Error code: 805a0194"
The other link takes me to the paid app.
I'll try again later.
evilrobot says:
Yep, same thing happening to me (lumia 920). Link to website says try from phone, trying from phone gives the unavailable error.
teaMJPx says:
I had search Nokia Corporation and all apps by Nokia came up, then I found it within this and downloaded. I dont know if it will work for everyone. I am using the HTC Arrive and changed the Marketplace to Nokia. Downloaded just fine.
paras chugh says:
wp should sell their app ecosystem to nokia for better use
tissotti says:
Lol it honeslty does feel like that. :D
Kind of sad that i have replaced Nokia Music as my main music player in WP, when the main reasons why i bought WP was my old Zune HD.
MS really needs to get on it.
fbloise says:
Nokia rocks!
Kash_Killz says:
Im' not understanding. So im being punished for purchasing an HTC 8x instead of a Lumia? i got nothing against Lumias, but to devide whatever user base windows phone actually has is pretty stupid in my opinion. Nokia should be focusing on expanding the Windows Phone O.S as a whole not its Lumia brand exclusively.
Ty1361 says:
Can you not buy it. I think it is only free for Lumia users. Also if not, you can buy it in two months. And yes you are being punished for not buying a Lumia. Nokia makes deals to bring apps to windows phone. HTC doesn't. That is just life.
Kash_Killz says:
Makes deals like what? please inform me. All i keep hearing from nokia are about there "exclusive" apps and services. if they are in fact the driving force for app growth in the windows phone ecosystem, please enlighten me and maybe my next windows phone might very well be a lumia. I just chose HTC because my last four phones were HTC and they never let me down. I dont have anything against nokia or there lumia line, and i definately dont have anything against buying games or apps, etc. I just find it wierd.
tissotti says:
Are you mad? :D And yes Nokia does have over 24 of its own apps globally, plus it exclusive apps.
I can't see a reason to be mad here. You can buy the game if you want, for Lumia users Nokia simply bought the game. Can't see anything wrong with that.
fbloise says:
Basically Nokia is paying SEGA for every download out there. Stop whining and ask HTC to do the same. Isn't Nokia's fault.
Xaphoon148 says:
Also got 3 htc's in row now, but this time I am a happy owner of a yellow Nokia Lumia 920.
Liked my htc-phones, but was sick and tired being let down by htc on support. Nokia is in their own division when talking about service and support. No other manufacturer is even close. I've bought my last htc...
aitt says:
Its nothing different than you buy a game from Gamestop or blockbuster and their exclusivity code with those game. Nobody is being punish. Nokia is finding ways to promote their product whether its license deals or company deciding who to sponsor with. If HTC can't get things moving on their end who's fault is that?
xFalk says:
Nokia has an interest in selling Nokia phones not HTC, Samsung or whatever. Those are competitors. If you want what Nokia has to offer than get a Lumia phone. That is the main reason I chose an 822 over the 8x....I wanted Nokia apps and support.
procen says:
busngabb says:
You cant blame Nokia for wanting to have a reason for people to buy their handsets can you? It is Microsoft's responsibility to build the platform. The other manufacturers who have released phones on WP8 have put no effort at all into it.
So yes you are being punished for not buying a Lumia, but not by Nokia, by HTC. They could have exclusives and release apps for WP8 but they choose not to.
Looking at how HTC have behaved it looks likely the 8X and 8S were just experiments and that they have now abandoned the platform. The 8X design has been ported to Android and I don't see them releasing any more Windows Phone devices.
Having said all that, now Nokia Drive has been released for all phones there isn't an exclusive app I'm bothered about as yet and this game certainly isn't a big deal.
Good to see Nokia putting some investment into their devices and I think they will likely take the majority of HTC and Samsung WP users when their resigns come about.
winger46146#WP says:
You are not being punished for going with HTC 8X. The game is in the store for you to buy. Nokia just worked out a deal with the game developer to offer it for free for users that bought thier phones.
Bearach says:
Don't say anything bad about Nokia... You'll only get hundreds of replies saying the same thing.
What some don't realise is that this is good and BAD for the platform. Applications that may have come to all don't. Tell me an application that's been exclusive that has come to Windows Phone itself. Supposed time limited exclusives are still not available on the "actual" platform because of Nokia. Stop kidding yourselves, this is good for Nokia customers, bad for Windows Phone.
Lets say next generation Microsoft releases a phone. Nokia still has them exclusives. The Microsoft phone is better than the new Lumia... But wait, you'll not have that Mirrors Edge and other games... Still think its good for the platform?
This coming from someone whom is seriously considering Nokia for my next phone...
And yes, I'd be saying the same if HTC, or Samsung did the same.
Bearach says:
Yeah I get that, I'm just replying to the person about these exclusives. Which doesn't include this game, and is not actually on topic with the article above.
Cartman says:
From the description in the marketplace it seems to be an expanded version with additional content :)
Paul Acevedo says:
It's expanded compared to the first game, but content identical to the Xbox WP version.
theefman says:
Maybe you should take this up with the platform owner. Its not nokias job to fund WP apps for all devices, its Microsoft's and since they don't seem to be doing it Nokia is taking the initiative and doing it for their devices. And what are HTC and Samsung doing? Sweet FA, that's what. The complaints should be aimed at the lazy parties, not the one striving to bring value to their customers.
Bearach says:
Can you guarantee without a shadow of doubt that all the exclusive applications would not ever come to Windows Phone?
If Nokia didn't try to get these exclusives, do you really believe none of these applications would come to the platform?
If Nokia gets a deal, what does that mean for the platform owner? Can Microsoft step on Nokia's toes and say no, without it being an issue of tension between the two?
Everybody thinks of it one-sided. Its great for Nokia owners and it may be great for me soon. But it does not help the platform as much as some think.
I want a choice in devices, not to be "forced" to buy one brand, or you don't get the full app experience.
Edit: And it's a complaint about the situation, not Nokia.
Also, imagine if all the OEM's started doing it... The app situation would be terrible. You'll need Nokia for that app, Samsung for this, and HTC for that... Really do you want that?
Edit 2: This will be my last post on the matter. I just have different opinions to others.
theefman says:
Who knows what would come to WP but the fact is this is what Microsoft should be doing to make sure apps come to all WP users. Nokia is doing what HTC did with beats and what Samsung just did with Wacom on android, get deals that would make their devices more attractive. Its on Microsoft to bring the most popular apps to the platform in a timely fashion and its apparent they are not doing that which leaves Nokia free to engage the developer and negotiate a deal for exclusivity.
MrUniq says:
This. I think the real problem is Microsoft. Actually I have no problem with free apps. Its the exclusives that are the worst. Microsoft should promote more platform harmony. The average consumer won't make distinctions between different WP manufacturers.
Residing says:
Kash...Yes, you are being punished - by HTC, not Nokia.
Nokia is using it's money to appease, and reward, the users that chose a Nokia device for their mobile needs.
Nokia is NOT responsible for expanding the WPOS as a whole - that is Microsoft's responsibility.
Besides, Nokia has already gifted you with the free use of their navigation app.
erasure25 says:
You're not being punished by anyone. Lumia users are being rewarded. Its not a zero sum game. Target rewards its credit card customers with 5% off. Would you say they are punishing all non-Target credit card customers? No, that's just silly.
ymcpa says:
No, your are not being punished. Ni=okia subsidized the development of the game to offer to their customers. You are not one of tehir customers. You can, however, buy the game if you like. Why should their efforts benefit you if you are not purchasing their product? It would be like playstation users complaining about xbox titles.
dkp23 says:
Maybe you are being punished for choosing an OEM that doesn't want to support app development on WP8. Why would it make sense for Nokia to invest in $$$ for app developing their own apps and getting popular titles on the platform to have other OEM sackride them adn get them with no effort.
The point is to give people incentive to go Nokia. NOkia is competing against HTC/samsung as well not just apple/android devices.
So if you are gonig to be upset, be upset at HTC because I haven't seen any development for apps on HTC's end.
K_lando says:
Your disappointment is misdirected. HTC should step up their game. And HTC users have some apps and games I don't.
jgschwandtner says:
If two publicly traded companies compete for customers, why would they spend their financial resources to help their competitor's customers? You made a choice for one of the companies when you purchased your phone. If that company does not provide the same service to its customers as Nokia does, you should take that up with said company.
JonesCK1 says:
So if you bought ice-cream for your son at the park, you're punishing all the other kids? I'm not understanding your logic, Nokia is going out of their way to support their devices. I would agree with you if they were making it exclusive by not letting other devices get it, much like it's done with the consoles but that's not the case here, they simply payed a set fee in order to make it free to their users. HTC could do the same but they don't, or do you expect Nokia to also pay for HTC users? lol
Apoc says:
It's really HTC, Samsung, other OEMs, job to get developers to bring apps to the WP platform, but instead, they just sit on the side. Nokia on the other hand, is going full force, getting these developers to bring the apps to the platform and for the money they're spending on doing this, they have exclusive rights to the app for a certain time period. If I was you and other OEM users, get on HTC & Samsung, about why they're not doing more to bring apps to the platform.
dKp1977 says:
Oh how I love the whining and complaining about Nokia and their exclusive offerings. Stop bitching, if you chose to go with HTC, Samsung or whatever. It's their lack of dedication and commitment to Windows Phone that you should complain about.
Kash_Killz says:
Watch your mouth please no need for need for talking like you werent raised with respect. I voiced an opinion about something and right away theres a baby wit a keyboard that has no manners. chill out.
dKp1977 says:
If my comment would've been meant especially for you, I had replied to you. ;) I was speaking in general. And sorry, there wasn't any bad mouthing at all.
K_lando says:
Chips on your shoulder must be salt and vinegar because its obviously got a sour flavor.
techygeek82 says:
Which is exactly why I chose to go 'all in' with Nokia and not those others. The lack of support HTC offered us in even getting the Keyboard Fix update out to the Titan was a HUGE issue for me. I lost all faith in their future support at that time. Nokia is doing what other vendors have an opportunity to try and accomplish, however they are not taking the inititive. People chose a device based on their prefrence, that comes with perks and consequences on all sides. Reading people being 'Upset' that it's 'not the same on their HTC/Samsung device' is just a consequence of the choice they made.
corinthiandoom says:
Moved from my Titan to a Lumia 920 and will be sticking with Nokia for the reasons you said.
CX1 says:
Nokia collection sucks on 822. Most apps never show up.
CX1 says:
Nokia version is non xbox. odd.
The1nChicago says:
Funny, just looked the game up in the marketplace and downloaded (FREE) it.
xFalk says:
Worked fine for me. Just follow the QR code.
tissotti says:
They are pushed to Nokia Collection by delay.
I have probably not even used WP store in months as i just always use the build in QR reader function.
vedichymn says:
Yeah, noticed the same thing. Oh well, I like achievement points, but free is free!
iop777 says:
Is this for Windows Phone 8 only? I'm getting error retrieving title on my Lumia 900.
nvillescas says:
The first QR code doesn't work for me. It takes me into the marketplace then throws an error that there's something wrong with this item.
I have a Lumia 900 (7.8), AT&T, USA).
iop777 says:
Try it now! I have a Lumia 900 with 7.8 and it works now.
touchpad4760 says:
I have a Lumia 900, 7.5 / ATT, and I get the same error on the 1st QR code.
touchpad4760 says:
And if I try the "Download App" from the WPC app, I get "which app?" Error retrieving title.
paras chugh says:
i think the wp team should cope up with nokia rather than nokia slowing down
mjfadaway says:
I feel like Windows Phone would be doing better if Nokia was running the show. It seems like they care about the platform more than Microsoft.
AndyCvr says:
Abdul9 says:
Thanks a lot buddy. Thats exactly what i thought.
ade333 says:
Take that thought to the next level and remember how Nokia gor where they ate right now.
dk_banaah says:
This is why I chose Nokia
AccentAE86 says:
Hmmm, not working for me. Don't see it in store, QR codes don't work, and the WPcentral app gives me "Error retrieving title" when I try. Maybe not available in canada yet.
touchpad4760 says:
In the WPC app, I get two "error retrieving app" - presumably one for each QR code. If I tap on the first "error retrieving app" I get the marketplace error. If I tap on the 2nd "error" link, it does bring up the $2.99 version. Nokia 900 7.5/ATT.
touchpad4760 says:
1st QR code now working. 199MB download in progress!
apocacrux says:
Same here. I guess we wait. Worth it, for a free, quality game.
Takertron says:
If you search for SMB2-SE it will come up if you search for super monkey it is about five entries down if that helps anyone
pipe7 says:
Searched for "super monkey", 5 entries down is "Fart Bubbles". LOL
Can't find on my phone, QR brings up error.
Nefty rdz says:
Thanks for the info. Downloading now.
jmerrey says:
I imagine windows phone would be in a much better state if MS had acquired Nokia, kept the brand, and sold the phones as Lumia, not Windows or Microsoft. They would be better off not only in brand presence, but app presence. Nokia Lumia, and I guess you could add a "powered by Microsoft" to feed Balmer's ego...
Scatty69 says:
nokia isnt be sold to ms or to anybody
sarim_xyz says:
me too, soooooo happy that I chose Lumia 920 :D
Nokia Lumia 920 + Windows Phone 8 = Awesome!!!
rareohs says:
I mean great, I appreciate that Nokia is working hard to get us more titles and especially freebies. But forgive me if my overwhelming reaction is "Whoop de $%#@ing do. Another weak, outdated, 3 year old game finally comes to WP... While iOS gets the latest and greatest on Day 1. Wheee!!!"
Paul Acevedo says:
This game has been available on Windows Phone for a long time now. Nokia just started giving it away free (without Xbox Live features) this week.
AccentAE86 says:
As for Nokia pushing it's Lumia line exclusively... OF COURSE they do that! The whole challenge of a mobile phone company adopting a standardized ecosystem like Android or WP is that you have to really put in an EFFORT to differentiate your product from the other manufacturers.
So it's not that Nokia is punishing you for buying an HTC, in reality it's HTC punishing you due to their lack of effort in making their customers happy.
NicholasNavarre says:
Everything seems to be working fine now.
Kieta says:
Darn it, WiFi download only. Gotta wait til I get home.
IamDefiler says:
199MB!? And I thought Doom And Destiny was a big game. DLing fine on my 710.
s0briquet says:
dude how great is doom and destiny. anyone who doesnt have it, go get it right nowwzzz
itsnavsub says:
Initial try to load the app failed with an appstore error. After couple of tries I was able to see the app and install it via WiFi since the app is around 145 MB.
cruisezero says:
I get error code: 805a0194
Can't download
EDIT: working now 2/1/2013 03:01EST
Rasool Shaik says:
I have installed it successfully on Nokia Lumia 800 with 7.8. The first QR Code works. But the sad thing is it is without XBOX integration. Anyways i love Nokia. Thanks for your support Nokia
pazces84 says:
I see a little dust in your ffc :/ ... but yeah game looks awesome. Will definitely give it a try.
pogi920 says:
This is the advantage of having NOKIA...lol...love my 920..
revdug says:
Not working on my 900
Sulslim says:
I wanna Back games from N9 - Galaxy on Fire 2, Asphalt 6, One, Worms, NFS Shift, Bejeweled 2,3, Snake, Samurai 2
Residing says:
@sulslim...Nokia didn't create those games; have you contacted the developers of those games to see if they are going to port them to WP?
dkp23 says:
tried clicking links and through app, nothing.
CX1 says:
search SMB2-SE
QR code error for me - does not show when search super monkey ball
mase123987 says:
I clicked on install and got "This item isn't available from the Store in your region." I have an ATT 920.
raul_junior says:
That's odd I live in Illinois with the Lumia 920and I got it
AlexanderJJJ says:
Says not available for my region. I live in the United States. :/
PLenjoy says:
Works fine for me. Norwegian. Used the QR-code. Didn't find it in Nokia Collection tough.
Betschman says:
Not free in Switzerland! GRRRR!
Nakazul says:
Thnx Nokia and WPcentral
ttsoldier says:
qr code not working :/
Morq says:
Size: 144mb.
"You've reached the storage limit on your phone. Go free up some space, then try again".
free space: 888.23MB.
Residing says:
Lol! You only have 888.23MB of free space? And here I was thinking that having 7.26GB out of 16GB on my Lumia 900 was bad.
greynightshirt says:
Same problem here :-(
"Other" takes up 4GB, I have 500 MB free and I also can't install the game :-(((((
theintrepid says:
Just started the download. QR code is working
raul_junior says:
This is why Nokia will always be the best!
nizzon says:
App-link doesnt work and not available in my Nokia collection. :(
suman152 says:
Nokia rocks again...
Squatting Hen says:
I learned my lesson when I had an HTC WP7 device, and I constantally had to read about all the exclusive apps that the Nokia phone would get. They also would get updates that my Titan II never saw. I decided never to purchase an HTC device again. I now have a 920. It sucks a bit that others don't get the same deals, but that is how life works, and is similar to gaming consoles, streaming services and others. Nokia does this for their customers and to get new customers...like me.
deitylee says:
Got error for a few times. Then it's working now... Great!
LuminousGeorge says:
Not free at Greece. The price is 2.99E..
randomscandinavian says:
EDIT: here we go!
inteller says:
meh, this is a one off. They ripped out XBL so if the main app is ever updated, this one wont and vice versa. You will definitely get what you pay for here.
tositem says:
Ehm... Still have to pay in Indonesia's Windows Store --"
gapost says:
Download is 144mb!!
1 STUNNA says:
I'm getting a not available in your region error. I'm on AT&T 920
AmilM says:
It hasn't a Xbox achievements. :(
ericr42 says:
I can't find it with search in the marketplace (as usual), but the link worked for me. Lumia 920 in Florida on AT&T. I wish the store's search was better. If it wasn't for WPCentral and other blogs who post links I couldn't have downloaded several apps and games.
Kiraly Attila says:
Thx Nokia ,im not a gamer but for free i will try it :)
TheOneJohnHall says:
So I can't install because my storage is full. I have extra storage in there but games/apps don't install on it. They're all on internal storage, is there a way to transfer games to the 32G I put in there? that's about 98% free.
Sorry, I searched around and couldn't find a link. So I'm asking here.
Jay_wpcentral says:
Nope. Games are just like apps. So you have to install them on your phone memory.
I ran into the same problem as yours. I had a decent collection of games and I ended up removing a few of them to make space for the monkey.
TheOneJohnHall says:
bah :( Thanks for the reply. I'll figure something out. There's just so many to play!
Jay_wpcentral says:
Nokia = Awesomness!!
Tjalsma says:
Wouldn't download on my Lumia 900 - did a reset of my phone then it worked perfectly...weird.
abduz says:
Viber. Tango. Sorted. Pretty please.
Residing says:
This game was one that I was not interested in trying; Nokia offering it for free, I downloaded it and the tutorial has been kinda fun. Gotta finish FC Rocket, though :)
Thank you, Nokia!
CoZmicShReddeR says:
I am so glad I didn't buy the Be Bop phone now! jk :p
JonesCK1 says:
To those getting the error code, I had the same error but tried again now and it's working
MerlotC says:
Still error for me.
randomscandinavian says:
Well, that was fun. But tired of it already now. ;)
ttsoldier says:
I was gettin the error. Working now for me.
Miekk4 says:
Nice! It seems I made a good decision choosing L820 over Ativ S a couple of days ago:).
odoggyfresh says:
dangit I just bought the paid version like 2 weeks ago, good for nokia to do this though
Paul Acevedo says:
Don't feel too bad. You do get Achievements!
bobdonkey says:
Shame there are no achievements....but the kids like it!
ReckfulVic says:
You know, I'm really glad I got a windows phone and everything. But I think I should have just switched from Verizon to AT&T to get the 920 because Nokia is killing it with staying on top of everything.
david90531 says:
Not showing as free either, hope that will change soon. Tried changing region to us but still doesn't work.
Again glad to be a Lumia user!
aliencatos says:
not in Canada, erreur says not avalable in your region with your QR code
Gemini Ace says:
What's the point if it's not Xbox live enabled? That's the main reason we have windows phones. I don't understand why you take your main selling point and remove it. Just like with Microsoft allowing people to get achievements on iPhone and android. Leverage what you have that makes you different. Smh.
Paul Acevedo says:
They didn't remove it as a selling point. You and every other Windows Phone owner can buy the Xbox Live version of Super Monkey Ball 2 right now. And while Xbox Live is a big deal, remember that it's not important to everybody. This way, both groups are served.
Residing says:
No, Gemini Ace, XBox Live games is NOT the main reason I purchased my Lumia; as a matter of fact, I'd say it wasn't even a consideration for my purchase.
Paul Acevedo says:
But it is the reason I have one... Just one of many selling points - they don't impact all users equally.
matrixcruiser says:
I thought the same:D
Don't understand the xbox thing anyway. Can you compare the archivents with someone? I don't even know someone having a xbox or a wp.
Gemini Ace says:
I don't understand you. ;-)
peachy001 says:
Sonic is free too!!!!!
procen says:
Tried to download, and it said "This item isn't available from the store in your region. I live in the U.S!
Edit: Now it's downloading!
Kooosh says:
From your phone, search the store for SMB2-SE. That's the only way I was able to find and download this.
wpstan says:
Not for free in Nokia Collection here in Canada..after searching in entire store.I found it but must pay..not free
rasse71 says:
When I searched "Super monkey" I found the Xbox version which is 2.99€ but for "SMB2-SE" I found the free game without Xbox integration.
chuyauchi says:
Same, not free for Canadian Lumia 920s
LUMIAMAN says:
Inside phone marketplace had to pay, same happened with the second qr, paid version.
the first qr worked for me. Lumia 800-wp7.5, still no update for me for wp7.8...
Jazmac says:
Can't get it. I get an error.
astraith says:
OMG This Game Is perfect for phones. I can't wait till I get my Lumia!
glassadam says:
You know what game I would love for Nokia to give us? That Katamari game. LOVE IT
DMcl66 says:
I'm on Wp 7.5 Lumia 800, UK based and everything worked just fine. Of course need to use WiFi to download.
Thank you Nokia.
Planblover08 says:
Nokia never fails me.
TechAbstract says:
Can't believe you guys didn't report Sonic CD. It was free on same day as Super monkey ball 2. Look up wmpoweruser article. I got both for free.
Paul Acevedo says:
Are you sure we didn't?
GotHemi says:
Not working for me. It says "This might be because your phone software needs to be updated, the app is exclusive to a different mobile provider, or the app is not available in your country/region." Im on a Lumia 920 in America ATT.
sdunnin#WN says:
No workee here either. Get "This app is not available for your device..." message. Also have Lumia 920 on AT&T. Bummer...

Ring of Salt, songs, the ancestral songs of your breathing and your senses, melody of the waves of water moved by the beating of wings of seagulls. Soaked shores of the salt of the waves. And humans who transformed and transform that beat wave of Mediterranean (the sea between lands). A journey, through lullabies, work songs, the dance and party, of longing, and reaching back to the sea. Sunday May 24, Saint Lucia Plaza de la Iglesia. 21:45 pm

I've been hacking computers since age 6. These days, I'm a software engineer at Google, working on maps and related things in the Geo group.
Besides being fluent in English and American Sign Language, I know too many programming languages to count. Primarily these days I use Java, JavaScript, Python, and C++. I also enjoy C#, even though nowadays I don't get many chances to use it. I'm also a big fan of Haskell and Scala, although I haven't had a chance to use either of them in a large-scale project yet.
In my spare time, I play guitar and read voraciously, including science fiction and books on computing. I'm also a volunteer minister for the deaf, teaching Bible studies in American Sign Language.
Standard disclaimer: my opinions are my own, and not necessarily those of my employer.

For the Post to run it was unfair to Han's family, but the media don't usually worry about such things. It was accurate and captured an important story.
It was insensitive -- hard to imagine the photo running in The New York Times -- but people buy the Post for punch-in-the-gut tales, for the "headless body in topless bar," not for astute foreign policy analysis. The story is so sickening that we want to turn away but can't. The picture makes us so uncomfortable that we're mad at the Post for inflicting it on us.
There are pictures of murder victims in the paper every day, part of the sad toll of urban life. But the difference is that we're not watching them being shot or stabbed.
One aspect of this tale that makes my blood boil is the role of the freelance photographer, R. Umar Abbasi. Instead of snapping two pictures of a man about to die, why didn't he try to pull him to safety? Abbasi claims he hoped the flash would warn the subway driver. I'm not buying it. His first instinct was to record death, not prevent it. Every editor has to strike a balance between depicting ugly reality and the sensibilities of readers and viewers.
There are those who believe that the American media should run more pictures of dead or wounded soldiers, that we -- especially in television news -- sanitize war by shying away from showing its victims.
Would I have run the front-page photo of Han? No way. But the New York Post has a different mission, to shock and sensationalize, especially when it comes to crime. On that point, the tabloid succeeded, which is why so many people are angry -- and everyone is buzzing about it.

I am all in favor of change, when change is progress. Often, it is not.
On a recent visit to Cincinnati, I drove through the area I used to call home to have a look around. I lived in an east-side neighborhood called Madisonville, but did most of my shopping up the road in Oakley as Madisonville shopping basically consists of a UDF gas station, a Dollar General, and a Porsche dealership. When I moved, Oakley was in the midst of a "major redevelopment." I was curious to see how things have changed over the past year.
I discovered that all those months of road construction resulted in a revamped street-scape. It's nice. There's some "green space." Overall, I was underwhelmed. However, on my way out of the neighborhood, I almost caused a traffic accident when I saw this:
I remembered there being an interesting old industrial building here with cool windows, though I didn't know what the building was used for, or if it was still used at all. It's definitely not being used now. When I got home, I searched for news of this project and learned that the building once housed a manufacturing plant called Cincinnati Milacron. Interestingly, this company has a deeply embedded history in the city. Founded in 1884, it has been applauded for a "strong tradition of remembering the past (1)."
The $120 million demolition and redevelopment of this 74 acre property will result in the creation of 200 new apartments, an office campus, a movie theater, and 350,000 square feet of retail space. The developer referred to the old plant as "underutilized property."
I could point out plenty of other "underutilized property" in the area. For instance, just down the street is a vacant Circuit City building that went out of business three years ago. Why not use some of that $120 million to find a tenant for this building and improve other deteriorating buildings we already have? This old Milacron building could have been creatively repurposed into lofts, art studios, or a truly unique retail space. I wonder how amazing it would have been to rent an apartment in a refurbished historic building with Cincinnati roots, while also living conveniently close to shopping and public transportation? Why are we always so hell-bent on tearing everything down and starting all over? Are we really so short-sighted, so unimaginative, that we cannot see something beautiful right in front of us?
The developers of this property are, of course, patting themselves on the back for creating jobs out of this project. And they are. Redevelopment jobs are lovely, but they are also temporary. 350,000 square feet of retail space will certainly create some jobs. Jobs in stores that will no doubt sell cheap crap manufactured in China, and employ people at minimum wage who will hate going to work every day. And they should. Because they are going to be selling crap.
The developers are also touting the fact that their new buildings will be LEED certified, because apparently that makes this horrifying project environmentally friendly. How can people not understand that it is far more environmentally friendly to use what we already have than to tear it all down and start again? The whole time I was photographing the wreckage, I tried desperately to hold my breath. The air was heavy with all the toxic substances released into the neighborhood when they tore this monstrous structure down. How will this affect the cleanup crew that is spending hours among the wreckage, the people who work every day in this neighborhood, the people who are doing their Christmas shopping there right now? As I was photographing, I scolded myself for not being more prepared – why don't I keep a gas mask in my car for situations like this?
With a little bit of innovative thinking, this "underutilized property" could have been something truly unique that Oakley could have been proud of. Instead, my guess is that it will just be another Kenwood or Rookwood – a mass of ugly, hastily assembled buildings lacking in character, history, and neighborhood identity.
Well done, Cincinnati.

This is deceptively simple but I really think that the simplicity of the comment may stick with a driver and cause he/she,
if only for a second, to imagine a world without hell. A small nugget of
desire for disbelief. Facts, as we know, don't always help. Spur them
to want to see the other side.
The idea of Hell is a device that is very often used by theists of all stripes to ensnare people.

2p!America x Bullied!Reader: UnexpectedAlfred stared at the computer screen with a not so amused expression. It was another photo his friend Oliver had taken with his "Oh so perfect family" he had. Well, that's what the cupcake freak call's his family. He glanced a the almost mirror imagine son Oliver had. Except his son had the eyes of his mother. A disgust tone trickled from brunette's throat and closed the window. He could take anymore of this cutesy shit. But somehow he was slightly envious of what Oliver had. A beautiful wife, a good home, a decent job, a smiling son.Years ago this would make the American's head turn away and sneer at the thought, but now. Being older, he f
~Safe in Your Arms~ A Germany x Reader One Shot"Alright men! Ready.. Aim.."You broke free of the strong grip of your German fiance and bolted towards the shooting grounds."Fire!!""No!" You screamed as you reached out your hand towards your parents who were propped against the wooden poles, blindfolded. Lightning cracked in the sky as the guns were fired making it hard to distinguish the two. Rain began pouring as you tripped and fell on the ground.. It was too late. You laid on the ground, tears streaking your mud splashed face. Your hand was outstretched towards to two slumped over bodies that now lay lifeless. You sobbed hopelessly as there was nothing else you could do.. You were now left with the guilt of their deaths, despite what they would want you to think. The last thing they spoke to you was in fact the opposite, it was their dying wish that you'd live your life, regretless, with your German officer.As you laid there weeping, you felt steady arms wrap around you and lift your

She returned from her part-time job at the local McDonald's, only to get ready for her job as a waitress at the local bar.She sighed. Having to deal with annoying costumers, screaming kids, and low pay was more than enough to drive someone mad. The only thing that made it all bearable was that her best friends came to visit her at work most everyday.Alfred F. Jones, Gilbert Beilschmidt, and Mathias Køhler.

The quiet clicking of the gun on the screen was the only sound and you were fine with that. It was always nice to just have a bit of blessed quiet while Alfred was around. You yawned lazily while you watched him play his game for a moment before standing from the couch and stretching. Al glanced at you before turning his cerulean gaze back to the gaze."Where ya goin dudette?" He questioned his gaze once again flicking to you. You shrugged."Grabbing a snack

"It was the least I could do since you were so interested in them." Silence then enveloped you both as your friend adjusted her hold on her back pack. She just now realized that she had to empty it out before she hurt her back.Laughing at her flustered expression, you held out a hand. "Here, let me help you with that." She shook her head."No, no, I'll be okay. Besides, your house isn't too far from here.""Yeah, you're right...hey!" you suddenly yelled.Your f

Alfred was sprawled out on the couch, one leg hanging off as he slurped down a coke."Waidouneedmahhelp?" he mumbled as he shoved another potato chip in his mouth. Yes, you did love your best friend Alfred, but sometimes you just couldn't stand him."Because! It's not all my clothes! It's mostly all yours!" you practically shrieked as you kicked a pair of his dirty, hamburger stained pants. He took no notice of you and kept watching the bright colours

Well, that is if you consider a half hour walk not long.Turning the corner, some lightning cracks above you chorused with the loud rumble of thunder. You decide to run for it, trying to get home as soon as possible. Youre already soaked through and home isnt as close as you hope in this weather. as you turn the next corner, you realise where you are. This is Arthurs street.

~Always~ An Italy x Reader One ShotIt had been two years, five months, and eleven days since the day the accident happened. Feliciano never could let go of the guilt after he saw you get lifted into the ambulance. He had just been so mesmerized by your sparkling eyes that he hadn't seen the large garbage truck pull out in front of your car. He escaped with only minor injuries, but you now suffered from amnesia. You had been in a coma for the first month and every day a strange man would come and tell you how much he loved you. He seemed so familiar yet so distant. You knew deep down that this man was connected to you in some way.You woke up in the same pure white bed every day, the first thing in your view was a huge glass vase full of roses. They always brought a smile to your face. You would go over to them and give them water, watching as the drops of water glistened in the sunlight. You would then bathe, dress and go to the same dining area. You'd sit in the same chair in the co
~In Your Eyes~ A Prussia x Reader One Shot"Suck it losers! Make way for the awesome Gilbert!"You giggled as your best friend Gilbert continued to make a fool of himself. He didn't care and that's what you loved about him. Sure, he could be a little brash and prideful, but there was another side to him. In middle school, you were always the target because you got the best grades. You were outside the school, surrounded by a group of girls. They had pushed you into the wall and broken your glasses, now they just sneered and laughed as you cried. Then out of nowhere appeared this strange looking boy. He came up to you and picked up your broken glasses and then turned to the girls. "You know, bullying is so not awesome." He grabbed your arm and pulled you away from them. Ever since then, you've clung to his side. That was the day you fell for the egotistical sweetheart. You and Gilbert were spending study hall in the library, with you actually studyin
~Linger~ A Romano x Reader One Shot To think, that of all people, you'd fall for Romano. He was cold, hostile, and just plain rude most of the time, especially to you. You were relentless though. He'd often comment on how stuck up his ass you were. You knew he was just doing it to egg you on and hoping to get a little fun out of picking on you. Everyone needed someone, that's what you'd say. The first time he heard that response, he actually stopped for a minute and looked touched. You knew Romano could be different if he wanted to, he only acted this way to try to get what little attention he could. One day, he opened up to you, mind you he was drunk off his ass, but nonetheless, he spilled all his feelings on that long car ride home. It was then you realized you really did love the man, despite all his issues and self esteem complex. He had shown a different side to you only on occasion when you two were alone. A slight touch here, a hug there, even a peck on the c

"'ello ________. *hic* I'm really *hic* drunk right now. Can I come over and *hic* stay the night?" You sighed. This was the 5th time this month he had asked you that. You should've known that's what he was calling about. "Sure. Whatever. Where are you?" you asked. "Open your door," he told you and hung up. You waked to your front door and opened it. There was a drunken Arthur, standing on your doormat, wearing nothing but a black apro

You took the last few steps up reaching the roof without any problems. "Which way am I going now? Everything looks different from up here.""To your left, but please,

By B
from Burlington VT
Waist band was not as generous as I expected. It has two buttons that can make it smaller like on the back of a denim jacket. (Not stretch material) Unfortunately it was in it's "most open" waist size already and a little tight at the bottom. I am not a real large guy maybe a few xtra winter lbs. The jacket fit perfectly everywhere else, but tight at bottom which made it "potbelly" out in the front when zipped. I am usually a large in coats and shirts etc. When i tried the xl that was too big and long in the sleeves. Also be aware the color is not as light blue as pic. Seems near a darker navy. Also i would say it is more realistically 2 -3 steps up from a heavy wool/quilted shirt than a heavy jacket. You would wear in my opinion on fair/not windy or chilly days.

By Birdielover
from Long Island, NY
This jacket was supposed to be a birthday gift for my husband. I liked the softness, color and the casual but versatile styling, which would have been perfect for what he needed, for work or leisure. There was only one issue, and that was the pockets. They simply were not aligned evenly on both sides. I wanted to exchange it for another one of the same size and color, but it was all sold out. I sadly returned the item for a refund.

Nice Jacket
By The old man
from Upstate NY
Here in the Northeast, this jacket is just perfect for those many winter days that are not bitter cold enough to pull out the down puff jacket. My husband likes it because it is not too heavy or bulky but cuts the wind better than his fleece jacket. He wears it when the temps are between 25 & 45. Very nice looking jacket. Fabric has a nice drape and a surprisingly soft hand. The only negative thing he has to say is that the sleeves should be lined in something slippery, rather than in the soft wool that lines the body. But it's a minor inconvenience. All around, very happy with this jacket and it has already seen much use.
By Dave in chair
from Pequot Lakes, Minnesota
This jacket is worn on a daily basis. The only draw back that I can see is that I think it would be even better with a zip out quilted, fleece or some other lightweight lining to make it just a little more comfortable in cold Minnesota weather. I wouldn't add any lining to the sleeves though--just the core of the body. Very happy with the product and did receive exactly what we expected from description. Thanks Woolrich!
Well made, very well made
By Raleigh and sunny.
from Raleigh, NC
This is a great casual jacket for winter weather the way we have Winter in North Carolina.(a little bit at a time and when a heavy coat or jacket is too much). Plus it is easy to wear in the car.

What A Jacket!
By Jay
from New Paltz, NY
I have never bought a more comfortable and great fitting jacket. It's not bulky at all, but there is room for layering underneath. I'm sure this jacket is geared more towards fall/spring, but if you throw a hoodie or a heavy flannel under it (maybe an oxbow) I can see this working as a winter coat as well. Very well made and I get comments on it all the time. I got it in the deep navy color. I would recommend this to anyone. Thank you Woolrich!

Castlevania Virtual Console release tipped by ESRB
Castlevania has turned up on the ESRB's catalogue as a 3DS and Wii title, suggesting a Virtual Console release is on the cards. It's not clear whether the title refers to the 1986 action platformer that started it all, or the 1999 N6$ game, although given the destination platforms the former seems more likely. A new 3DS game, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate, is due in early March.
Thanks, GoNintendo.
