It says something about the enduring appeal of Gettysburg among writers and readers that books dealing with small segments of the campaign continue to regularly appear that are better crafted and presented than those covering entire Civil War campaigns and battles of far greater significance. This is one of those. In addition to being a fine military history of the Gordon Expedition, Flames Beyond Gettysburg: The Confederate Expedition to the Susquehanna River, June 1863 by Scott Mingus (Savas Beatie, 2011) also utilizes well the author's many years of primary source compilation work in order to present a satisfying full picture of the raid's interactions with civilians living in the cities, towns, and farms occupying its path.
On the Confederate side, the book's action follows the men of John B. Gordon's brigade of Jubal Early's division (screened by the famed 35th Battalion, Virginia Cavalry "White's Comanches"), as they skirmished at various points and passed through Gettysburg, York, and Hanover Junction, before the enemy's torching of the magnificent covered bridge over the Susquehanna River between Wrightsville and Columbia ended their advance. On the federal and Pennsylvania state side, large scale efforts to assemble emergency militia forces that could blunt or at least slow down the enemy advance are detailed. The diligent efforts of Major Granville Haller in coordinating the defenses in Gordon's way are particularly highlighted, a notable historiographical corrective contribution on the part of the author given how shamefully Haller was later treated [he was dismissed from the service in July on dubious charges of disloyalty]. An order of battle, chronology, and driving tour are also included.
Flames Beyond Gettysburg deserves a place in the library of every serious Gettysburg Campaign student. It should also appeal to local Pennsylvania history enthusiasts. Finally, for those that already own a copy of the original edition, the new book is a quite considerable improvement over the old one in both content and presentation, and is very much worth another look.

I mentioned this cool guy Zachary Goldberg in my blog and in my talk before. While I mentioned his name in regards to his efforts to making sure GUPnP glues nicely with gobject-introspection and is usable from Python, he went much further than I expected and made a cool new UPnP control-point for N900 based on GUPnP in Python. He named it Zhaan (another character from Farscape in the spirit of Rygel).
Some mandatory screenshots:
You can check out more screenshots/specs of the project and follow its status here.
There are many people out there making cool UIs but they end-up using wrong tools and/or re-inventing the wheel so its nice to see someone doing cool stuff but the right way. :)

On the other hand the Bulldogs, who are playing at Vanderbilt this weekend in a Southeastern Conference series, wouldn't mind getting the boost from a win.
So there is no doubt that both teams will be highly-motivated when they face each other Wednesday night at 6 at Ken Dugan Field at Stephen Lee Marsh Stadium. The Bisons will be on the road this weekend at Kennesaw State for their first Atlantic Sun series of the season.
"We altered our schedule to get Mississippi State on it because they were coming to town to play Vanderbilt," Bisons' coach Jeff Forehand said. "This is an opportunity for us. Mississippi State is playing great.
"We have to close up some gaps and some windows that we are giving other teams to score. We have to take advantage of our windows to score. If we do those things we are going to be fine."
The Bisons were swept in three games this past weekend by Ole Miss, another SEC team, on the road in Oxford.
"We didn't play very good against Ole Miss," Forehand said. "They pitched really well. We only scored one run and that makes it hard to win any games. We didn't take advantage of some chances that we had and they did.
"I told our team after the last game with Ole Miss that by playing teams like that we get a great idea of where we are as a team. We all want to win the games, but we didn't back down. We played hard. Hopefully, we learned a lot."
Left-hander Chris Nunn, 1-0 with a staff-leading 1.53 earned run average, will start for the Bisons. This will be Nunn's seventh appearance and fourth start. He has pitched 17.2 innings, allowing 11 hits and striking out 17. He has also walked 12.
Mississippi State will counter with left-hander Nick Routt who was injured a year ago. This will be his first appearance since the injury.
"Chris is gaining experience with every appearance," Forehand said. "We have been trying to get him a start on Tuesday or Wednesday of each week. He is coming in as a reliever on weekends. We think down the line he is going to hit his stride."
The Bisons are led in hitting by Richie Goodenow with a .407 average. He also leads the team in runs batted in with 11.
Goodenow has a five-game hitting streak on the line. M.L. Williams and Tennyson Dodd both have had nine-game streaks, the longest for the team. Those streaks ended at Ole Miss.
The Bisons enter the game with a 7-9 record. Mississippi State is 13-4 after beating Eastern Illinois 9-4 Tuesday night in Starkville.

This weekend, Argentina face Germany in the final of the 2014 World Cup.
Forty-eight years ago Bobby Charlton and the 1966 England squad faced the same opponents and, as we all know, their victory (England's one and only World Cup win) became a momentous event in the sporting history of our proud nation.
But, Tim Stanley argues, we'd be a lot happier in 2014 if it had never happened.
If we'd never won the World Cup, England supporters' sense of failure at almost every tournament since would instead be a resigned acceptance that we're a country who occassionally lose a football match.
Watch Tim's video to find out why life would be better if England had never won the World Cup.

Kiai Jutsu: The Shout Used As A Weapon - FightingArts.comby Takwann
By Christopher Caile A kiai is a loud shout. It is that essential element used by the heroes and villains of martial arts movies to accent their action, something that testifies that they are not mere boxers or wrestlers but trained experts in an Asian discipline such as karate or kung fu. But unfortunately what we hear no longer bears much combat significance. The true art of the shout, or kiai jutsu in Japanese, can be an effective tool of self-defense capable of having physical effects on an adversary.

In December of 2001, a few weeks before I became the first lawyer at a tiny Internet start-up called GoDaddy.com, I got a call from the CEO and Founder, Bob Parsons. I had only met Bob once, but I already knew I was going to like working for him. He was unlike anyone I had ever met. Not only was he smart and funny, but he was eccentric, entertaining, and showed signs of pure brilliance when it came to marketing intuition, all good characteristics for a serial entrepreneur.
Bob called me because he had just talked to a distraught woman on the phone. Seems she had come across a nude photo of herself on the Internet, and wanted Go Daddy to take down the website. Bob asked me what he should do. Leave it up or take it down? After reminding him I was a securities litigator and had no earthly idea what he should do, I realized he was waiting for an answer, so I told him I'd get back to him. Then, I did what any capable lawyer would do; I went to look up the answer. But, oddly, there was no law on this issue in December of 2001. No statutory, regulatory, common, Napoleonic, precedential, black-letter, red, green, blue, or any other color of law, governing what one should do when faced with such a dilemma.[1]
Great. Just great. I hadn't even started the job yet and I was already in an impossible situation. So, I said, to no one in particular, "I see, so this is how it's going to be. Well, if there is no law for me to follow, I suppose I'll have to go find some smart, enthusiastic, well-meaning industry leaders to make some law for me to follow." And, then I got out a piece of paper (remember, this was 2001, we still used paper back then), and made a list of all the horrible things I could conjure up, in my wildest imagination, that one might find on the Internet.[2] On a separate piece of paper, I re-wrote the list starting at the top with what I considered to be most the egregious and going down to the bottom of the page with the least egregious.
There. That felt good. Now, all I had to do was find someone to address the list. Yeah, right. Much like the laws governing what an Internet provider should do to address the things on my list, the person or group of people who would take a leadership position to advocate for said laws, didn't exist either!
It was clear at that moment why I had been plucked out of my perfectly cushy, white-shoe, traditional law firm and tapped to be the first lawyer at what would later become the world's largest domain name registrar, hosting provider, SSL provider, and overall controller of a very significant amount of what happens on the Internet every day: I was just "feisty and outspoken" enough to go try to establish policy on the things on that list myself. And, so, I did.
I didn't start an office in Washington, DC until a few years later. But, I did immediately start talking to other lawyers, reading as much as I could about trends online, and plotting a way to begin to shape policy for the entire Internet, one issue at a time.
What I learned, starting with that call from Bob Parsons, was I was going to be operating in an environment where I had to make huge numbers of decisions, very quickly, without a perfectly developed body of law to guide me. That was my big picture.
So, if you made the same observations, what would your big picture look like? To jump into shaping policy, you have to define that, in your own context, before you do anything else.
[1] Just in case you're tempted to go down the free speech/first amendment/privacy path, let me just refer you to your basic constitutional law textbook, wherein you can read about a little thing called "state action."
[2] In retrospect, my list didn't even scratch the surface of what I actually came across in the more than ten years I spent at Go Daddy.

I really love this little guy and I'll be sorry to see him go but I need to raise money to upgrade my other systems so...
I am selling my c760 with
- A Socket Low Power WLAN card
- 256mb Lexar SD card
All items work great and I've had no problems with them in the approx. 2.5 months that I've had them. In the interest of fair disclosure though, here is a summary of all the things which might diminish the value of the items:
Since these were travel items, they have what I consider to be minor cosmetic damage -- ie nothing serious but they no longer look new. There are some blemishes on the screen which I have not attempted to clean as to my eye they are not so visible when the display is on. I lost the original stylus :-(. I grabbed some Belkin styli which I will include (3) -- they work fine and fit in the slot but protrude about 1/4 in. This could be fixed relatively easily but it was not critical for me since I am largely a console user, and almost never used the stylus except to launch a terminal...
The rom has been flashed to the Cacko X11 Rom (which rocks!) and the SD card has been reformatted to ext2. I seem to have misplaced the CF card that I used for rom flashing, but I will throw it in if I find it (which I hope to). I still have the charger and usb cable which I will, of course, include.
I am in the USA and would rather not ship outside of the USA though I will consider other offers. I am asking 550 USD which I think is a fair -- if not pretty good -- deal when one factors in the substantial cost of the sd card and wlan card. I would prefer a check/money order transaction but will consider paypal offers. Buyer pays actual shipping cost -- probably ups or fedex ground.
contact me at: canaan at hiddencube.com
with any offers, questions, etc...

some folks privately expressed some concern over what cosmetic damage might really mean so I cleaned the zaurus up a bit and took some pictures.
They are posted at:
The cosmetic stuff is actually hardly noticable so I am now asking 600USD... but will entertain reasonable offers.

A growing sense that Europe's leaders have failed to contain that region's debt crisis swept through financial markets Wednesday.
It started with the euro dropping below $1.30 for the first time since January and a jump in borrowing costs for Italian government debt. By the end of the trading day the Dow had lost 131 points, European stock indexes fell as much as 3 percent and gold dropped $76, ending below $1,600 an ounce for the first time in more than two months.
Investors dumped assets that might be seen as risky and piled into the most conservative ones around: the dollar and U.S. government debt.
The market appears to be in "sell now and ask questions later mode," said John Canally, investment strategist at LPL Financial.
Since European leaders reached an agreement to rein in future government budget deficits last week, investors and credit rating agencies have criticized the deal for failing to address current problems. "Markets are impatient," Canally said. "They still can't see how all these efforts will get this situation stabilized."
Italy had to pay higher borrowing rates in its last bond auction of the year today. The euro zone's third-largest economy paid 6.47 percent interest to borrow 3 billion euros ($3.95 billion) for five years, up from 6.30 percent just a month ago. The higher rates make it more expensive for Italy to borrow money and reflect rising doubts that the country will be able to repay its debts.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 131.46 points, or 1.1 percent, to close at 11,823.48. Caterpillar Inc. fell 4.4 percent, the worst drop among the 30 stocks in the Dow.
Canally said the fear that another bank failure will lead to a financial crisis like Lehman Brothers did in 2008 overshadows everything else, he said. Markets are so jittery now that traders see a slight drop in the euro or a small rise in Italian government bond yields as a step toward a wider collapse.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 13.91 points, or 1.1 percent, to 1,211.82. The Nasdaq fell 39.96, or 1.6 percent to 2,539.31.
Gold dropped 4.6 percent to settle at $1,586, the lowest closing price since July. Commodity prices tend to fall when the dollar gains strength, since a stronger dollar makes it more expensive for investors using other currencies to buy commodities, which are priced in dollars.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note dropped to 1.91 percent from 1.96 percent late Tuesday as demand increased for ultrasafe assets. High demand for U.S. government debt helped the government sell $13 billion in 30-year bonds at a record low rate of 2.92 percent. In a note to clients, strategists at Nomura said "the insatiable appetite" for Treasurys at such low yields implies that bond buyers are readying themselves for "the end-of-the-euro-trade."
The dollar also rose against other currencies. The euro shed about a penny against the dollar to $1.29 and has now lost 3 percent in three days.
European markets fell broadly. Germany's DAX dropped 1.7 percent; France's main stock index lost 3.3 percent.
Energy stocks led the U.S. stock market lower after the price of crude oil lost $5 to $94.95 a barrel. Apache Corp. shed 5 percent and Chevron Corp 2.9 percent.
First Solar Inc. plunged 21 percent, the biggest drop in the S&P 500, after the country's largest solar company slashed its earnings estimate for the year. The solar industry has been hit hard by slower economic growth around the world and as government funding for alternative energy projects has dried up.
Avon jumped 5 percent, the largest gain in the S&P 500. The company announced late yesterday that its CEO, Andrea Jung, will step down. The cosmetics company has been struggling with erratic financial results and is under scrutiny by regulators.
The Dow is now down 3 percent for the week, while S&P has lost 3.5 percent. The Nasdaq is down 4 percent.

Ray Lewis, who has been rehabbing his surgically-repaired torn right triceps muscle primarily in Florida, is back working out in the team facility, though Ravens coach John Harbaugh was noncommittal on when he'll return to practice.
Lewis, who was put on injured reserve with a designation to return on Oct.17, three days after sustaining the injury in the Ravens' Week 6 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, can start practicing Thursday. However, the Ravens and Lewis will proceed with caution as the linebacker won't be eligible to play in a game until Dec.16 against the Denver Broncos.
"Ray Lewis is here. He's rehabbing. He's not practicing today and we'll just play it day-by-day as far as whether he practices or not," Harbaugh said. "He's not imminent to return to play or anything like that, so to me, it's really a non-story. He'll go out there when he's ready to practice when the elbow holds up, and when that happens, we'll let you know."
When Lewis initially sustained the injury, it was expected that he'd miss the rest of the season. However, Lewis, who had surgery on Oct. 17, has made a rapid recovery and it now appears likely that he'll return before the end of the regular season.
"If he gets out to practice, it would be pretty amazing," said Ravens running back Ray Rice. "The guy, to me, is my modern day Superman. … Why is he coming back? People ask that question all the time. He's coming back because he firmly believes that this is a team that can go ahead and do it. He does it for us. He's not doing it for the stats. He's not doing it for the fame. He's doing it solely because he loves the Ravens, he loves his teammates [and] he loves this organization."
Ravens outside linebacker Terrell Suggs said that the Ravens, who are 4-1 this season since Lewis went down, can't wait to get their leader back.
"I know when he did it, all you guys said he's out for the season but we've heard that before," said Suggs, making reference to his surprisingly quick return from a torn Achilles . "I guess [it's] what they got down in the water up in here in Maryland."

Two Ozone Park men were sentenced Thursday to 25 years to life in prison for the murder of NYPD Officer Peter Figoski, a West Babylon resident who was shot on a Brooklyn stairway in 2011 responding to a robbery.
Nelson Morales, 29, and Kevin Santos, 32, were sentenced by State Supreme Court Justice Alan Marrus in a Brooklyn courtroom packed with Figoski's police colleagues and his family.
The man who shot Figoski, Lamont Pride, 28, was convicted of murder and burglary in February and sentenced to 45 years to life in prison. A fourth suspect, Ariel Tejada, 24, who testified against his co-defendants, faces sentencing later this month under a plea deal that will likely get him 18 years to life in prison.
On Thursday, Marrus sentenced Morales and Santos to 20 years to life in prison for the murder and 25 years for burglary in the connection with the robbery.
Officers in the courtroom hallway applauded as Figoski's family left after the sentencing.
Both defendants will be eligible for parole after serving 21.4 years, the district attorney's office said.
"If there is any measure of justice that can be gotten out of a criminal court, we've gotten it. I'm satisfied with that," lead prosecutor Kenneth Taub said. "It is not going to bring police Officer Figoski back. This is not going to bring satisfaction to the family. It is all we can do, and to the extent we've done it, I'm pleased."
Figoski's mother, Mary Anne, 79, spoke for the family at the prosecution table as her husband, Frank, 80, stood over her. Two of Figoski's four daughters were in court but did not speak.
The judge asked her to identify herself for the record and she said in a low voice: "Mary Anne Figoski. I'm his mother."
She said her son went to work on the night of Dec. 11, 2011, thinking -- as always -- of his daughters. That night, he texted them: "Sleep well. I love you. See you tomorrow," she said.
She said Morales and Santos were without steady jobs while her son served others, and worked to make sure his four daughters were provided for. "Society must be protected from predators like them," she said.
Thursday's proceeding all but ended two sets of trials before Marrus that began in January and included separate juries for the four members of the crew because not all evidence was admissible against each defendant.
Morales was the ringleader of the crew and knew that a small-time marijuana dealer rented the Brooklyn basement apartment.
After the men kicked in the basement door shortly after 2 a.m., an uncle heard the commotion downstairs and called police. Figoski, one of two officers backing up officers in the first arriving patrol car, was starting down the stairs to the basement when he was shot by Pride.
Pride was acquitted of aggravated murder of a police officer, which would have drawn a mandatory sentence of life without parole. In February, another jury acquitted the alleged getaway driver Michael Velez, 23.
All five defendants were charged with the murder of Figoski under the legal theory that they were responsible for any death resulting from a felony committed -- in this case, the burglary.

Red Hot Yoga
Red Hot Yoga will be a Hot Yoga studio, with the practice being conducted in a room heated up to 40 degrees centigrade. We want to provide a space where people can come to focus on their yoga, to work hard and sweat hard. The studio will be an escape from the everyday stresses of modern living, a place where people can come and restore vitality to both body and mind.
What we intend to offer is an effective and proven method for increasing general well-being, including aiding concentration and mental alertness; increasing cardiovascular efficiency and endurance; decreasing blood pressure; improving physical posture; improving balance and increasing range of motion in joints.
We want to create a brand that tells people that whatever their fitness level or lifestyle, from couch potato to professional athlete, including Hot Yoga in their life will improve their physical and mental state.
Please do not include any spiritual references in the logo, as these can be divisive and we are keen to promote the ethos that Hot Yoga is for everybody, not just supple young fitness fanatics and spiritual gurus!
The studio will focus on three specific groups:
Middle Income Urban Professionals: This group is the core segment of potential students for the studio. Their demographic characteristics are as follows: Age 26-40; Sex: 30% male, 70% female; Family income: £30,000 to £50,000
Upper Income: The upper income customer is a secondary target group. Their demographic characteristics are as follows: Age: 40-60; Sex: 30% male, 70% female; Family income: £60,000+
Student: The student customer is a secondary target group. Their demographic characteristics are as follows: Age: 18-25; Sex: 30% male, 70% female; Family income: Variable
The studio will be in a city centre location, within walking distance of the main train and bus stations. As such, we intend to target both local workers and commuters. Most of our target market will be health food and exercise conscious.
Our target market is both health and image conscious. We want to create a brand that incorporates healthy living with style. Our studio will be finished to a high standard and we hope to create a warm, inviting atmosphere in a space dedicated to the mind and body.
The sensory element of the studio is very important (i.e. look, touch and feel). We have a colour scheme of reds, greys and natural woods (browns).
It would be great if the name of the studio can be included in full: "Red Hot Yoga". The colours should be warm and natural. Obviously, as the name represents, something along the lines of fire or heat, etc. This is not set in stone by any means, so please do let your imaginations run wild!
In terms of concept, we would like to somehow get across that a Yoga practice is very much you and your yoga mat. The instructor is there to guide you, but cannot do it for you. A part of the benefit of regular yoga practice is the realisation of what you can achieve with a little dedication and some guidance, regardless of your starting point. Yoga is non-competitive, except within oneself (doing it a little better than you did last time is the challenge). If there is any way of getting this across in a logo, so much the better!
The logo will be used as signage across the windows of the studio, so will need to look right in very large size as well as down to business card size. We are after something that is both striking and subtle, which does sound like a contradiction! What we mean is something that people will notice, but is tasteful and stylish, so that it could not be described as 'in your face'.

The purpose of the tags program is to bookmark where a variable or sub was declared, so that you can go back to that point when needed.
Say you have this script:
Save it as test_DBI.pl and then run
(perldoc -l returns the path of an installed module).
Then, editing test_DBI.pl, if you have your cursor over the "connect" word, Ctrl-] will take you to the DBI.pm module, at the line where the "connect" sub was defined.
In your case, replace the script and module names and you'll have some more tags available.

The consistently sustainable design of the BMW i3 makes it the perfect vehicle for urban environments in the megacity: driven by pure electric power and customised for the requirements of a sustainable and emission-free mobility, it embodies an intelligent form of travel. The vehicle represents an integrated and harmonious concept where every detail has been optimised to its purpose. This can be seen in the functionally dynamic exterior and in the clean and reduced interior space.
Premium quality with convincing sustainability. And inspiring.
BMW i stands for a visionary automobile and a new understanding of premium mobility characterised by a consistent alignment towards sustainability. The inspiring, future-orientated design of the BMW i vehicles makes this something to be experienced in all its facets. It authentically visualises the innovative technology of the vehicles and transfers values such as lightness, safety, and efficiency onto the exterior and interior design. The result is a unique aesthetic which gives the vehicles their own unique identity. Born from the desire for sustainability and efficiency, the design of the BMW i vehicles is clean, reduced, homogenous and dynamic at the same time. Smooth surfaces, accentuated by sparse use of precise edges, appear to be cast from one piece. In conjunction with functional details and innovative solutions, this results in an exciting, modern design language that clearly formulates the future orientation of the vehicles.
The revolutionary architecture for electric vehicles.
Agile and compact proportions visualise the manoeuvrability of the BMW i3. Viewed from the side, the window design and door sills create a dynamic form. The flowing silhouette and long wheelbase give an impression of the ample space in the passenger compartment, while short overhangs on the front and rear of the vehicle facilitate parking even in tight spaces. Opposing doors offer convenient access to the open design of the passenger compartment.
One particularly special characteristic feature of the BMW i3 is the so-called "black band" which runs from the hood over the roof to the rear of the vehicle and gives the vehicle body a particularly light visual appearance. The typical BMW i streamflow design can be seen in the merging form of the window surfaces in the rear and provides for an especially good all-around view. Large 19-inch wheels reduce rolling resistance and, together with aerodynamic details, ensure highest efficiency.
The specific design of the LifeDrive architecture of the BMW i3 opens a completely new world of design possibilities for vehicle interiors. By locating the energy storage in the floor of the Drive module, no centre tunnel divides the interior. The entire Life module is available as an interior space and offers a completely new feel with an innovative and yet futuristic impression and unique new functionality.
The ample size of the Life module of the BMW i3 allows passengers to sit higher and look out over the interior landscape. This raised seating position is referred to as the "semi-command" position and also provides for a clear overview in hectic city traffic. It also makes entering and exiting the vehicle more comfortable. Because the interior space is no longer divided by a central tunnel, it is easy to switch sides and exit the vehicle on the opposite side, when necessary, which proves quite convenient in difficult and tight parking situations.
In all versions of the BMW i3, textiles are functionally utilised to impart a modern and young aesthetic. The textile surfaces have a sound-absorbing property which creates pleasant acoustics in the interior and also contributes to heat management in the seats. The equipment options consciously forgo the use of black elements and together with the structured textiles ensure a bright and fresh impression, ideal for the use of natural fibres. The fibres and structure of the renewable resources used for the surfaces are allowed to shine through the anthracite surfaces instead of using black. Three different, perfectly-matched interior worlds LOFT, LODGE and SUITE express the character traits of the BMW i3.
The character of the brand can be seen in the colour and material design of BMW i: "Next Premium". In the foreground, the emphasis is on naturalness and modernity while creating an exclusive and innovative interior experience. BMW i is a pioneer and innovator in a new understanding of mobility characterised by sustainability. Thus, the interior of the BMW i3 is an interpretation of this sustainability typical of the brand and realised by new and innovative materials which are appropriate to the premium claim.
The interior of the BMW i3 is distinguished by the visible use of natural materials. The natural fibres in the side trim and the instrument panel are resource-conserving and underscore both the sustainability as well as the premium claim of BMW i.
Sustainable production. Local emission-free driving.

BruceL necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
2 ganadores han sido elegidos entre 56 diseños de 5 diseñadores freelance.
The name of our company is BrainX. We are a team of brain researchers who design e-learning systems that use the latest brain research to accelerate learning and create mastery. This is contest is to design interactive web pages that will be launched from several different web sites. The pages operate almost like an online game for business people. People who go to the first web page read instructions and click a next button that takes them to the next page where they watch a video and read something about the game. After doing something on the page they click one of several option buttons and are taken to another page where they can see something else in the game.
The audience is professional sales people and managers of large companies. The game is based on brain research so we want it to look professional yet still fun to us. We want people to have an instant reaction that this is going to be enjoyable. No cartoons, clip art or stock photos. The expectation of an enjoyable experience has to come from the shape of the overall design. The shape of the outer design and the empty spaces where we will insert the game elements (think of these as text boxes) is the most important thing.
The audience are not gamers, some may even be a bit computer phobic. Therefore the navigation buttons must be intuitive and easy to find.
For the contest you will design two pages. The first is an introduction page that will be the first page in the online game. The second page uses the same design but has 4 empty areas where we will insert the components of the game. Those two pages are described in the attached full specification document.
Additional work: If the winning designer is interested in doing additional work on the project, after the contest we will have the opportunity for the designer to design additional variations of the pages as well as other work.
Overall design:Please read the BrainX full specification document before starting this project. It includes some additional deliverables.

Wyoming legend Kenny Sailors sees quick exit by Cowboys
The flight carrying numerous Wyoming fans landed belatedly at McCarran Airport just before noon. They could have booked a return flight Wednesday night.
Wyoming was bounced from the Mountain West Conference men's tournament 70-61 by a TCU team that had one league game all season _ against the Cowboys.
One of the traveling dignitaries was Wyoming's legendary fan, 90-year-old Kenny Sailors. Often called "the inventor of the modern jump shot." Sailors led Wyoming to the 1943 NCAA championship.
He lives in Laramie and said he never misses a MWC Tournament.
Wyoming's next task is finding a new coach. Interim Fred Langley is not expected to get the permanent position.
TCU will also be looking for a coach to lead the Horned Frogs into the Big East 2012-13.
TCU advances against BYU in the all-suspension game. TCU's best player, Ronnie Moss, was tossed early in the season. Brandon Davies, suspended by BYU last week, accompanied the team and will sit on the bench in street clothes.

Consumer prices in crisis-hit Turkey rose by 5.1 percent in May and were up 52.4 percent on a 12-month basis, the state statistics institute announced on Sunday, June 3. Wholesale prices increased 6.3 percent in May from the previous month and rose by 57.7 percent from a year earlier. Turkey's annual inflation stood at 37.5 percent in March and 48.3 percent in April.
The May figures reflected a declining trend in monthly price hikes, which sky-rocketed after severe financial turmoil hit Turkey in February, causing the Turkish lira to lose some 40 percent of its value against the dollar.
Consumer prices climbed 6.1 percent in March and 10.3 percent in April, while the wholesale increases were 10.1 and 14.4 percent respectively.
Last month Turkey won a multi-billion-dollar emergency package aid from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in return for a program of tight economic reforms.
Ankara, however, had to revise its inflation target, which was originally pinned at 12 percent for the end of 2001. The government now expects the year-end inflation to be 52.5 percent. ― (AFP, Ankara)

KENNEBUNK — As legal maneuvering Friday threatened to stall the possible release of the first batch of suspected clients' names in a prostitution ring, the town prepared for an awkward and uncomfortable next several days.
Ann Whetstone, who owns Mainely Murders Bookstore in town, said there has been a lot of fuss over something that's "not that serious a crime."
"People are going to talk but my life isn't going to change too much," she said. "If people are stupid enough to do this in their hometown, they need to accept what happens when they get caught."
Greg Butterworth, an artist and gallery owner in downtown Kennebunk, said he moved to town earlier this year but has followed the case.
"I guess people deserve what comes around," he said. "But life goes on. People have short memories."
Andrew Dolloff, superintendent of schools for RSU 21, which includes Kennebunk, already started reaching out to teachers last week to be on the lookout for any bullying of children, once the names start to come out. Dolloff was not in his office Friday.
Many people in town Friday were simply tired. Tired of being asked questions. Tired of the rumor mill churning. Tired of the fishbowl scrutiny of their small town.
The town has been dealing with the potential fallout from the anticipated release of a list of more than 150 prostitution clients of Alexis Wright, a former fitness instructor in Kennebunk. The list, which has not been made public, reportedly includes the names of prominent figures.
Wright, 29, is accused of prostituting herself and taping the encounters without the clients' knowledge. She pleaded not guilty earlier this week to 106 counts, including three felonies related to taxes and receiving public assistance when ineligible.
Mark Strong Sr., 57, of Thomaston is accused of being Wright's partner in the prostitution operation. He pleaded not guilty this week to 59 misdemeanor charges.

Did you know?
Jersey: is a knitted fabric that most often has an extremely fine surface which is distinguished by its high degree of elasticity. The resulting comfort is what makes jersey so popular.
Elastane: a synthetic, elastane is added in small quantities to fabrics to provide stretch and shape retention. It allows freedom of movement and delivers long lasting fit. Lycra is a premium branded version of elastane.
Viscose: used to be known as 'artificial silk' because like silk it has superb drape, is soft to the skin and can be dyed in rich colours. A man-made fabric, it's made from wood pulp and blends easily. You will often find it blended with other fabrics to add softness, lustre or absorbency (it's highly absorbent and so cool to wear in the summer).

Already my third rock. I h have it in black, black and white striped and now in white. I have the rock though something cut, but then the slot is no longer big. This is a year-round rock ?
Bereits mein dritter Rock. I h habe ihn in schwarz, schwarz-weiß gestreift und jetzt in weiss. Ich muss den Rock zwar etwas kürzen, aber dann ist der Schlitz nicht mehr groß. Das ist ein Ganzjahres-Rock ♡

This is a lovely skirt, slightly too long but fine. Nice jersey fabric - not too thin or too thick. Cut very well. Very pleased with it.

Long but as it tapers in looks really good
1 customer found this review useful.
Unfortunately, I don't belong to the customers who find this rock. On the picture looked so nice, but in reality, the material is very thin, almost thinner than a T-Shirt. The rock came across knitterig of like a rag. The rock is so extremely long, that I would have to cut 30 cm. Too much lying in the rear area. Why can you not skirts tighter Jersey fabrics and produce 80 cm long?
Ich gehöre leider nicht zu den Kunden, die diesen Rock gut finden. Auf dem Bild sah so nett aus, aber in Wirklichkeit ist der Stoff ganz dünn, fast dünner, als ein T-Shirt. Der Rock kam ganz knitterig, wie ein Lappen an. Der Rock ist so extrem lang, daß ich hätte 30 cm abschneiden müssen. Im Hinterbereich etwas zu sehr anliegend. Warum kann man nicht Röcke aus festeren Jersey Stoffe und mit 80 cm Länge herstellen?

Simple and elegant, super fit
Schlicht und edel, passt super
I've bought several of this particular skirt in both black and blue options. I'm finding them to be so useful and part of my every day wardrobe. Chosen because they are made of Viscose with NO TRACE OF POLYESTER and ... being a wonderful true maxi length and of slim straight fit, they work excellently under maxi dresses which, on me, are more midi than maxi. Much cooler and more comfortable to wear under a dress than a pair of trousers ... they give me coverage right to my shoes so I can wear shorter boots through the winter ....... and I'm hoping they will be similarly useful through the summer under long T shirts / tunics. A definite asset to my wardrobe! Thank you Excelle and thank you Navabi! Also wash and dry with ease. And ..... as I lose weight ..... it is my hope that I will simply be able to renew/change the elastication at the waist. I have bought the largest size available ... because, whilst my own size did fit, it was just not quite so comfortable close fitting on my waist.(I tried in the smaller size in the purple first ... but feel that the black and the blue will be of more enduring use in my wardrobe)
Really pleased with this. (I bought in the black in the largest size available for comfort and longevity (the style permitting the addition of replacement elastic to tighten the waist in the future with further weight loss without affecting the 'straight fit' of the lower part of the skirt, which is very flattering worn under a shorter garment of the same colour) Very nicely solves a problem I've been having which is that I have found that most Maxi DRESSES are not quite maxi on me, coming instead to mid-calf ..... which has meant that I have had either to wear trousers underneath or find longer than average boots. But, by wearing this skirt under a black bubble dress (I have some in black and of the same fabric as this skirt: Viscose Elastane) I have the coverage I want to the ankle but without adding further width It's a perfect solution and I'm so delighted, thank you Navabi and thank you Exelle.(I had also bought another of these skirts in the bergundy/aubergine colour and one size smaller but was not fond of the particular hue of purplish maroon ... and whilst it fit ok .... it was not as comfortable as the larger size so I returned the maroon/aubergine/bergundy one.
Nice quality skirt
Elegant skirt!
Classic well
KLassisch gut
A real basic part. Opaque and stretchig. Suitable for a casual, as well as for a chic style. Easy care. An absolute buy recommendation.
Ein echtes Basicteil. Blickdicht und stretchig. Geeignet sowohl für einen lässigen, als auch für einen Chic-Style. Unkomplizierte Pflege. Eine absolute Kaufempfehlung.
The skirt fits super, is only slightly too long, since I'm not big. Will be truncated. Size specification has agreed.
Der Rock passt super, ist nur etwas zu lang, da ich nicht groß bin. Wird gekürzt. Größenangabe hat gestimmt.
A beautiful rock in great color. Me too long, that's why I sent back him.
Ein schöner Rock in toller Farbe. Bei mir leider zu lang, deshalb habe ich ihn zurückgeschickt.
SIZE: The skirt is ankle length with me (168 cm), can be pulled but also higher, so that he is mid-calf. FORM: beautiful narrow, below still smaller runs. The rock not tent-like vertical drop of a rounded belly, but adapts to the body, and does so from the side narrow. Nice figure. MATERIAL: as something relatively solid T-Shirt fabric. Could something be thicker, but he seems to be stable. Light shining through, when you stand directly against the Sun. Thats too much who can just wear a petticoat. If there was this rock from a more solid material for colder seasons, I'd buy it immediately, I'm looking for something long. Washer and dryer were survived well, no running, no warping. When sitting you should pull up the rock something, so that it does not bulge out. Must not be mentioned actually :) PROCESSING: mediocre, just bruised to hem, but neatly sewn. A complimentary basic part, I can recommend it!
GRÖSSE: Der Rock ist bei mir (168 cm) knöchellang, lässt sich aber auch höher ziehen, sodass er wadenlang ist. FORM: schön schmal, läuft unten noch schmaler zu. Der Rock fällt von einem rundlichen Bauch nicht zeltartig senkrecht runter, sondern schmiegt sich an den Körper an und wirkt so auch von der Seite schmal. Sehr figurfreundlich. MATERIAL: wie etwas relativ fester T-Shirt-Stoff. Könnte etwas dicker sein, aber er scheint formstabil zu sein. Leicht durchscheinend, wenn man direkt gegen die Sonne steht. Wem das zu viel ist, kann einen Unterrock druntertragen. Wenn es diesen Rock aus einem festeren Material für kältere Jahreszeiten gäbe, würde ich ihn ebenfalls sofort kaufen, nach so etwas suche ich schon lange. Waschmaschine und Trockner wurden gut überstanden, kein Einlaufen, kein Verziehen. Beim Sitzen sollte man den Rock etwas hochziehen, damit er nicht ausbeult. Muss eigentlich nicht erwähnt werden :) VERARBEITUNG: mittelmäßig, nur einfach umgeschlagener Saum, aber ordentlich genäht. Ein schmeichelhaftes Basic-Teil, ich kann's empfehlen!
Item unfortunately did not suit me, so I returned it. But the quality is really great so I wanted to give it a high rating.
good basic part for layered look!
gutes Basic-Teil für Lagenlook!
is at a height of 166 cm too long, but very nice
ist bei einer Körpergröße von 166 cm viel zu lang, aber sehr schön
I bought two of these skirts, one in the 'dark-purple' in a size 26-28 (as it had a huge discount on it) and one in black in a size 30-32 .... but I was not fond of the particular hue of purplish maroon ... and whilst it fit ok .... it was not as comfortable as the larger size which I'd ordered in black, so I returned the smaller purple one and kept the larger black one (which was a tiny bit more expensive but I could see it being more flattering and useful with other clothes already in my wardrobe. I was really pleased with the larger black one . (I bought in the black in the largest size available for comfort and longevity (the style permitting the addition of replacement elastic to tighten the waist in the future with further weight loss without affecting the 'straight fit' of the lower part of the skirt, which is very flattering worn under a shorter garment of the same colour) Very nicely solves a problem I've been having which is that I have found that most Maxi DRESSES are not quite maxi on me, coming instead to mid-calf ..... which has meant that I have had either to wear trousers underneath or find longer than average boots.

not long enough I am only 5,5
too close for me and to body weight; the material is rather thin
für mich zu eng und zu körperbetont; der Stoff ist eher dünn
very thin fabric nan siwht through each small dent
sehr dünner Stoff nan siwht jede kleine Delle durch
Nice material but it was rather too small for me around the bottom perhaps I am not used to wearing these style of skirts. Plus it had a split up back which I did not realise and I don't like Nice if you like these style of skirts the

A great logo should tell consumers exactly what they need to know about your brand with just one look. The logo is often the first thing consumers see when buying a product or service, so it's crucial that it leave a lasting impression.
Ryan Brown, Brand and Buzz Strategist at the marketing software company HubSpot spoke to us about what a company's logo can do for its customers.
Below is a slightly-edited transcript of our conversation:
Almost anyone can see the logos for Starbucks, or Apple, or Disney, and know what they represent. What does it take for a brand to reach that level of household recognition with their logo?
For companies to have widespread recognition of their logo, they must have a great product or service as well as a really strong brand. If you have both of those things, selling your products and promoting your company is easier, giving you the ability and resources to promote further and reach more people. And once your product and brand becomes successful, you can use the money you make to promote your brand and logo in very recognizable ways. I think Apple and Nike are great examples of companies who built really great products and a strong brand experience that grew their business and helped propel their logo to widespread visibility and recognition.
What are the best practices that brands should follow when it comes to logo design?
Logos should be simple, clear, consistent, memorable and versatile so they can translate across different types of media, and can be placed on different types of backgrounds. I would look to Target, Shell, or FedEx as good examples of this.
Is simpler always better when it comes to logo design?
Almost always, yes. An exception may be if a more complex logo is done in an effective way to make your company more memorable, and for it to be a specific design choice that stands out. But generally, simple and clear is the best when it comes to logo design. Ask yourself, "what can I take away so that it's still awesome, still memorable, but isn't really needed?"
How have the overall styles of different brands' logos changed over the years?
Over the years there have been a series of trends that a number of companies have followed. For example, during the dotcom boom a number of companies included an "e", "i" or "@" as part of their name or logo. For a period of time a lot of B2B companies all used a globe as part of their logo.
Some companies like Pepsi have evolved their logos a number of times over the years to have more of a contemporary look and style, while companies like Coca-Cola have barely altered their logo at all over the years.
What does a successful logo do for a brand's consumers, or potential consumers?
A successful logo—and ultimately brand—acts as a symbol that you are part of a community, and it's a signal to consumers or potential consumers of what to expect. It becomes a strong visual cue to anyone who sees it and can represent a company's promise, trust, and level of quality.
Take a generic can of cola. With no logo or an unrecognizable logo the soda is not worth much. If you place the Pepsi or Coca-Cola logo on a can of soda, that can of soda instantly becomes more valuable. It clearly tells people what to expect and creates a reaction to how they feel about that particular can of soda.
What is your advice to a business that is creating its first logo, or rebranding and creating a new one?
Take it seriously and don't mess it up. Resist the urge to design by committee or trying to make everyone happy. Hire a professional or at least someone with experience to help guide you.
Similar to the best practices already mentioned: Be thoughtful and mindful when creating or updating your logo. Your logo should be simple, clear, and consistent. Consider how it will translate across media, from TV to web to print, and think about how it might look on a dark background, or a light background, or a different color than you usually use.
Your logo isn't your brand; everything your company says and does makes up your brand. Your logo is how people will recognize your company and potentially tell them how they should feel about you. A strong, well-designed logo will help a company tremendously, but it's no substitute for building a company with a great product or service and treating your customers well.
