Paypal has launched a revolutionary technology for its mobile payments. Company is testing its new face verification system for mobile payments transactions. With this new feature, you can pay with your profile picture.
Best deals on mobile phones
Thinking to buy a phone? do not miss these awesome deals"Your profile picture not only marks the gateway to your online social world, but can now also be used to make payments in the physical world!"
"We're pleased to help local businesses of all sizes offer a new more personal experience, while never having to turn away customers who don't have enough cash on them to pay," Rob Harper, head of retail services at PayPal, said in announcement.
Now, PayPal app has a new tab called local that you can use to find shops and restaurants new you with support of mobile payments. You can then check-in as you do in Facebook or Foursquare that enables you to pay for your purchase through the PayPal app. Once you check-in, your photo and name will appear on shop's invoice system. Cashier will charge you just by clicking on your profile picture and you will receive notification with amount you paid.
PayPal is testing this feature on Richmond High Street, London. If it gets good response and works without any problem, company will expand it to new locations.
What do you think of making payments with your profile picture? Do you think it would be safe? Share your views via comments.

In addition to growing older and improving their FICO scores, consumers can save on their car insurance premiums by limiting both the number and types of claims they submit to their insurers.
Vehicle theft is more than an inconvenience – it can cost car owners both time and money especially if the insurance company only covers the vehicle's replacement cost of a stolen car – not the balance owed on the loan. By following the tips suggested by LoJack, owners can reduce the chances of becoming victims of car theft and really have a Happy Halloween.
Raising the deductible amount on their auto insurance policies certainly can save drivers money on their monthly premiums. But those consumers with little wiggle room in their monthly budgets would do well to think twice before making a move.
In most cases, gap insurance can save borrowers a lot of grief – and money – when the finance term is over 48 months and when the down payment is less than 20 percent. Smart borrowers – especially those with credit issues on tight budgets – then need to decide if they want to purchase it through a dealer or their auto insurance company.
Since insurance can be particularly expensive for credit-challenged borrowers, these consumers need to carefully weigh whether or not they should file a claim with their car insurance carrier – especially if the damage is only a few hundred dollars above the deductible amount.
If you have problem credit, it's important to realize that taking out a subprime auto loan (or any auto loan, for that matter) will require that you buy full coverage auto insurance. And while it's important that you get the right deductibles for both collision and comprehensive coverage, it's also necessary that you have enough liability coverage, as well.
Taking out a minimum car insurance policy could probably save you money in the short term. But at the same time, this type of policy won't satisfy the requirements of a lender if your vehicle is being financed and, even if your vehicle is paid off, if you have any assets such as a home, taking out this type of policy could end up costing you your current assets plus any in the future, as well.

180 gram clear vinyl shrink-wrapped in HD fidelity as glossy as a 2012 Toyota Prius.
James Ferraro paints a 21st century still life on his debut album for Hippos In Tanks.
The record is called Far Side Virtual. Each song, a melodious reflection of the moment NOW, comes shrink-wrapped in HD fidelity as glossy as a 2012 Toyota Prius.
Ferraro's muse is some enigmatic modern metropolis, where the streets are as slick as i-Pads, and where the symphonies ring with Macbook message alerts. Through the steam rising from our latte mocha chinos, he invites us to gaze out at the dreamy disorientation of our digital lives.
Imagine a Darius Milhuad-guided tour of 5th Avenue. Imagine a Whole Foods bakery that sells only cakes emblazoned with frosting replicas of Camille Pissarro's "Haying at Eragny." These are the surreal utopias Ferraro brings to life with sixteen swirly-pop concoctions sure to sell out at the candy stores. So slip in your ear buds, and welcome to Far Side Virtual.

Joseph Abajian (DJ Jab) founded Fat Beats in 1994 with nothing more than a shoestring budget and an earnest obsession with the music, the culture, and the brotherhood of New York's burgeoning rap scene. What began as a simple vinyl shop in Manhattan's Lower East Side quickly became an integral hub for artists, both aspiring and established, to convene and collaborate on new projects. Joseph's timing couldn't have been more impeccable. When the 90's cultural zeitgeist – and, in turn, the music industry establishment – chose hip-hop as its new arbiter of cool.
International tourists and touring artists alike flocked to Fat Beats for rare vinyl, kindred spirits, and exclusive in-store performances from Jay Z, Eminem, Gang Starr, Outkast, Slum Village, Mos Def, and more. One thing was clear: the Fat Beats phenomenon could no longer be contained in a single basement shop.
In the late nineties, Abajian proceeded to open new stores in Amsterdam, Tokyo, Los Angeles, and Atlanta. He further expanded the company's profile to include global distribution and record label branches. Distribution has since proven to be the company's strongest and most enduring enterprise. Today Fat Beats Distribution stands poised as one of the country's pre-eminent distributors of vinyl & specialty item records: a proud survivor in an industry now famous for its mortality rate. Despite market fluctuations, technology innovations, and stylistic revolutions, Fat Beats has remained steadfast in its commitment to the timeless vinyl format and to the loyal community who keeps it spinning.

Picture of the week: Is fieldwork ecologically valid?
Many anthropologists are uncomfortable with the idea of performing experiments on the people – friends – they meet during fieldwork. This is partly for ethical reasons (which, one might add, are rarely seriously reflected on). But it is also because they doubt the ecologically validity of tasks which artificially disrupt the flow of ordinary life. This is a serious concern; but of course the same concern can be raised about anthropological fieldwork itself, which represents a dramatic intervention in the lives of our informants.
First picture: People in rural Southeastern Taiwan…
Second picture: …with the anthropologist in their midst.
2 Comments
Rita Astuti 6 November 2008 (00:00)
Issues of ecological validity are clearly very important and anthropologists are right to be concerned, even if "disrupting the flow of life" may not be the most significant issue to worry about. By contrast, I'm not sure that I understand what general ethical objections anthropologists might have regarding the use of experimental methods – unless of course a specifi experiment happens to be unethical.
Paulo Sousa 8 November 2008 (18:36)
Leaving aside the ethical issue, there seems to be two relevant issues suggested by the phrase "disrupt the flow of ordinary life":
(1) External validity (in particular, ecological validity): whether the results of a specific research methodology can be generalized beyond the exact research context. In relation to cognitive anthropologists doing experimental or quasi-experimental research in the field, the problem is whether the results coming from the research correspond to the cognition deployed in ordinary life. In fact, this is also a problem for anthropologists using a more qualitative type of methodology: do their results correspond to the cognition deployed in ordinary life?
(2) Internal validity: whether the results of a specific research methodology are affected by confounding variables. In relation to cognitive anthropologists doing experimental or quasi-experimental research in the field, confounding variables such as reactivity and absence of task familiarity should be addressed.

Capital News Service
RICHMOND – Virginia's bridges, roads and other infrastructure have earned a grade of C-minus from the American Society of Civil Engineers.
That is slightly better than the state's previous assessment – a D-plus in 2009, ASCE officials said this week in releasing the 2015 Report Card for Virginia's Infrastructure.
"The question is whether a C-minus grade is good enough for Virginia," said Don Rissmeyer, who chaired the latest assessment effort. "Think about your children's report card when you celebrate a C-minus. For me, a C-minus isn't good enough for Virginia today, and it's certainly not good enough for us tomorrow."
The report card covered 10 infrastructure categories, and each received its own grade:
– Bridges – C
– Dams – C
– Drinking water – C
– Parks and recreation – C-plus
– Rail and transit – C-minus
– Roads – D
– Schools – C-minus
– Solid waste facilities – B-minus
– Stormwater facilities – C-minus
– Wastewater facilities – D-plus
Those categories were averaged for a cumulative grade of C-minus.
At a press conference on the Capitol grounds Tuesday, Rissmeyer explained the reasons for the grades. Virginia's roads got the lowest grade, for example, largely because of traffic congestion in areas such as Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads. The state's dams received a C because many of them lack emergency action plans: 141 of Virginia's high-hazard dams – 45 percent of the total – do not meet current dam safety standards.
Although the grade for the commonwealth's drinking water has improved, the report card estimates that this infrastructure category needs an investment of $6.1 billion over the next 20 years. Virginia's stormwater facilities received a grade of C-minus primarily because state and local governments lack funding to implement regulations to reduce pollution in the Chesapeake Bay and other impaired waters.
"Clean water is the backbone for maintaining public health in Virginia, but it can also improve our economy," Rissmeyer said. "In fact, a cleaner Chesapeake Bay has been estimated to generate $8.3 billion in economic benefits annually to Virginia."
The press conference also was an opportunity for ASCE officials to explain the role of civil engineers.
"Civil engineers are responsible for the design, construction, operation and maintenance of our vital public work," said Christina Ammens, president of the society's Virginia section.

Holy big bad shit. I should have been reading Tony. I knew it was a mistake to get involved in this meta blog bullcrap, because you know, people can say they know who's an asshole and who's happy and nice in blogland, and people can blog all day and put up nice pix that show they are so white and harmless and freckled and breadbaseket-americana, and then they:
rape again
cut up
and plan to eat
ten-year-old little girls
even if they only get to the torture, kill, decapitate, rape(2), and cut-up parts. it can happen. you might like them, who knows, they may have you on their blogroll, and they might dig what you write a lot, they might come around your place and comment, and even quote your posts on their blogs, and all the while you don't know that they have a dead freckle-faced kid in the cooler whom they have finished murdering but haven't eaten yet, and ...
when they confess, you find out that this pretty average blog guy who looks weird in retrospect but described himself as "single, bored, and lonely, but other than that, pretty happy," seemed like any joeblowblogger at the time, this guy who has swapped blog spit with you, is the killer, and you see a trail to other blogs where he wrote some way fucked up stuff, and did you know? no--that's not the part he showed you, hell you even threw him a link once.
And you feel like you are going to puke and you feel like the world has opened up and showed you the belly of the devil on Good Friday.
Just ask tony pierce how that feels.
Tony points to a roundup of news stories here.

My brother put up a toilet for you to puke in here. But me, i've a different reaction. i fully expected this element to show up on-line. My reaction is more like this ... "We're finding that people are surprisingly trustworthy and good. Ther's some bad guys out there but not a lot of them. And that's working really well."
- Jeneane Sessum said...
Actually, Seth, you have no context here, so, how fitting, you have NO idea of what I'm expressing. The element didn't "show up" online. The element has been online. THAT's my point. As a human being and a mother and a long-time blogger, that matters to me.
Who has said more about him, me or you?
Hmmm. - 11:28 AM
- Seth Russell said...
Well i think it is a healthy reaction to puke when you encounter evil. But then what? ... err, you redirect, you reconnect with the other side ... if you stay there puking and squirming and fighting you just contribute to the pain. No, i didnt say anything about him, nor did i puke ... i just noted his existence ... collected it as it were ... and moved on. Craig's comment that i quoted is a simple hint of that other side. Gahndi said it differently ... (sorry loose paraphrase from memory) ... good always wins out against evil because evil destroys itself. But if i am out of context here, just delete me and move on. PS, my server is down ... probably due to hackers from the dark side of the net ... yes we are swimming in this stuff ... time to get some antibodies.

PowerShell v2 help file
In PowerShell v2 we get a nice graphical help system that includes the cmdlets, the about files and and the User and Getting Started Guide. It doesn't include the help for the optional modules though which is a pity.
The default locations on the Start Menu for PowerShell are Accessories – Windows PowerShell. That is not very good placement considering Windows only really exists to give us somewhere to run Powershell :-)
In these locations the help files are not visible. If you open up ISE then you can access the help file.
If you pin PowerShell to the start menu on Windows 7 then you get access to the help through the recent files menu. The help file is located (on my system) at C:\Windows\Help\mui409\WindowsPowerShellHelp.chm
I keep a shortcut on my desktop and a shortcut to the version 1 graphical help file from the script center. that way I can compare changes.
Word Add a table
There seems to be two types of paragraph I create in Word documents – text or tables. Lets start by adding a table.
002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 |
function Add-Table {
param ( [int] $row = 2, [int] $col = 5 ) $global:paragraph = $doc.Content.Paragraphs.Add() $range = $paragraph.Range $global:table = $doc.Tables.Add($range,$row,$col) } |
The function Add-Table takes two integers as parameters. They define the rows and columns of the table. The way that seems to work best is to add a paragraph to contain the table and then add the table into the paragraph. If we just add the table to the document it overwrites the contents of the document with the table. oops.
Notice that I'm using global variables again so that they can be used across the environment.
Next time we will add some data to the table.
Enable Ping
I've got a few talks coming up so need to build some more demo machines. One thing I like to be able to do in the demo environment is ping between machines – sometimes necessary when testing things out but ping is disabled by the Windows firewall in Windows 2008 & R2.
James O'Neill has blogged about working with the Windows firewall at http://blogs.technet.com/jamesone/archive/2009/02/18/how-to-manage-the-windows-firewall-settings-with-powershell.aspx
To just set ping on
002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 |
$fw = New-Object -ComObject HNetCfg.FWPolicy2
#$fw.Rules | Format-Table Name, Enabled, Direction -AutoSize $fw.Rules | where {$_.Name -like "File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-In)"} | $fw.Rules | where {$_.Name -like "File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-In)"} | |
Use the HNetCfg.FWPolicy2 COM object and enable the rules for "File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-In)". There are similar rules for IPv6 if needed. Blocking pings is just the opposite.
Module path
PowerShell v2 has 2 default locations for modules – in the install directory and in your profile. My demo laptop is set to dual boot Windows 7 & Windows 2008 R2. It would make sense to only maintain one set of files for the modules I write. There is a PowerShell automatic variable that sets where PowerShell looks for modules. To add my own folder to that path I just add
$env:PSModulePath = "C:\Scripts\Modules;" + $env:PSModulePath
to my profile. The modules will be available now from either machine. Need to change drive letter in the Win 2008 profile but otherwise just the same.
Word New Document change
I started experimenting with the New-WordDocument function and realised I needed to change it to make the variables usable across the functions.
002 003 004 005 |
function New-WordDocument {
$global:word = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application $word.Visible = $true $global:doc = $Word.Documents.Add() } |
Simple change is to make the variables global in scope. This means they are available across the functions of the module and form with scripts and from the prompt.
Depending on what you want to do you may not need this change but as I want to eventually use the module functions from scripts it works for me.
Word New Document
Lets add another function to our module for working with Word. Its time to create a new word document
002 003 004 005 |
function New-WordDocument {
$word = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application $word.Visible = $true $Word.Documents.Add() | Out-Null } |
Create the object for word as before. Set the visible property to true (we can't use it if we can't see it) We then add a document. The Out-Null I found was necessary on my Windows 7 & Office 2010 combination because a lot of stuff was generated that I didn't want to see. Try it without on other combinations. I don't remember it being so bad with Word 2007
Word Autocorrect
If you have been following this blog for awhile you will know that I build and rebuild machines on a reasonably frequent basis. One drawback to this that I have to keep re-creating the Autocorrect entries. I do a lot of technical writing much of which involves full names of products and correct capitalisation. I saw an entry on the TechNet scripting center that showed how to add an entry to the autocorrect list. It was in VBScript but thats not an issue as we can easily convert it to something more useful 🙂
I ended up with a module consisting of four functions
- Get-AutoCorrectEntry
- Export-AutoCorrectEntry
- Add-AutoCorrectEntry
- Import-AutoCorrectEntry
002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 010 011 012 013 014 015 016 017 018 019 020 021 022 023 024 025 026 027 028 029 030 031 032 033 034 035 036 037 038 039 040 041 042 043 |
#Requires -version 2.0
function Get-AutoCorrectEntry { param ( [switch] $all ) $word = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application if ($all) {$word.AutoCorrect.Entries} else {$word.AutoCorrect.Entries | Select Name, Value} $word.Quit() } function Export-AutoCorrectEntry { param ( [parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [string] $path ) Get-AutoCorrectEntry | where {$_.Value -ne "*"} | Export-Csv -Path $path -NoTypeInformation } function Add-AutoCorrectEntry { param ( [parameter(Mandatory=$true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$true)] [string] $name, [parameter(Mandatory=$true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$true)] [string] $value ) begin { $word = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application $ace = $word.AutoCorrect.Entries } process {$ace.Add($name, $value)} end {$word.Quit()} } function Import-AutoCorrectEntry { param ( [parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [string] $path ) Import-Csv -Path $path | Add-AutoCorrectEntry } |
Get-AutoCorrectEntry creates an object for Word and dumps the contents of the AutoCorrect Entries collection. Default is to just display the name and the value where name is the bad text and value is the replacement text. The –all switch dumps everything but we won't usually need that info
Export-AutoCorrectEntry calls Get-AutoCorrectEntry add dumps the results to a file using Export-Csv. Using where {$_.Value -ne "*"} restricts the output to the entries I've created rather than including Word's own entries
Add-AutoCorrectEntry creates a new entry. It takes name and value parameters then creates an object for word, gets the AutoCorrect Entries then uses the Add method to create the new entry. I've used the begin/process/end scriptblocks so it behaves nicely on the pipeline
Import-AutoCorrectEntry reads a csv file then calls Add-AutoCorrectEntry
Next time I re-install Office I can dump the entries and then import them after installation. I can even move my entries between machines. I created this using Windows 7 and Office 2010 TP but there is no reason for it not to work with other versions of Office.
File download problem
If you are using the Office 2010 TP and try to download a word document through Internet Explorer you end up in a continuous loop of being asked for credentials. The download site won't recognise your local credentials so you can't get the documents. You do however get to see the URL from where the document is coming.
So the answer to this conumdrum is to use the BITS file transfer cmdlets in Windows 7.
Start by importing the module
Import-Module BitsTransfer
You can then download the files
Start-BitsTransfer -Source http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/1/F2146213-4AC0-4C50-B69A-12428FF0B077/Windows_Server_2008_R2_Failover_Clustering_In_Brief.doc -Destination c:\source
Start-BitsTransfer -Source http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/1/F2146213-4AC0-4C50-B69A-12428FF0B077/WS08%20R2%20Failover%20Clustering%20White%20Paper.doc -Destination c:\source
Typing the URLs is a pain but at least we can now get the things downloaded.
TCP Ports
I came across this post http://www.expta.com/2009/08/name-that-port.html that gives the well known service for a TCP\UDP port. Useful script but its written in VBScript. Needs to be in PowerShell.
002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 010 011 012 013 014 015 |
param ([int]$port)
$data = @' 1 = TCP Port Service Multiplexer 2 = Management Utility 3 = Compression Process 4 = Unassigned .... lots more in here 48003 = Nimbus Gateway $ports = ConvertFrom-StringData -StringData $data $ports["$port"] |
Easy. Create a script called get-port. It takes an integer as a port number. The ports and services are held in a here string and then ConvertFrom-StringData is used to create a hash table.
We then look up the port to get the service. Next trick is to turn it round so that we can find the port number given the string. I'll add that next post and put the whole string on my skydrive as its too long to publish here
Windows 2008 R2 RTM
It hasn't had the same level of fanfares but Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM is available for download from TechNet\MSDN. I'll be converting my test domain over the next few days and reporting on all the PowerShell goodies we get

October's event was a good one. We had terrific presentations from YourStreet and Seero. Thanks to everyone who made it through the Shoreline / Jimmy Buffett concert traffic! Special thanks to Google and our (sorta) new host Shannon for an awesome dinner, booze, and comfy space to meet.
In November we'll be hosting three companies, each one different from the last. We've got a collaborative history site, and mobile/social network to stimulate your senses. Bring it.
OpenLandmark is a free, collaborative, landmark directory maintained by volunteers around the world. Mo'Blast's vision is to build a platform that enables the creation of mobile apps. The company has already shipped experimental versions of their products – Fon11 and Open Landmark. The company is currently working two 90-page apps – a new version of Fon11 for iPhone SDK, Android, WinMo, and Nokia WRT and another existing product Taptin that enables people to connect at party. They are in the final stage of their development. The company's founder, Kevin Leong, agrees to give us a sneak preview of their new products. He will also discuss the company's plan to open Open Landmark API in the near future. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of Mo'Blast is how they have bootstrapped the company with people participating from Europe, Asia and Silicon Valley. This company has achieved a lot with no funding.
SKOUT (formerly Wichro) takes social networking to the next level. Armed with the belief that creating a community which leverages the inherent opportunities and simplicities of a mobile device would foster increased communication among friends, businesses and complete strangers, Wichro unveiled its first product SKOUT. SKOUT enables users of virtually any mobile device currently available to create content - messages, photos, videos, with their handsets and pot it to the SKOUT network from any location.
We will be streaming the event live on Ustream.tv. Go to: www.ustream.tv/channel/webmapsocial to watch us in action.
Dinner (sandwiches, salad and dessert) + beverages (non-alc and some light booze) are graciously sponsored by Google.
Thanks again for your support folks. I appreciate your participation, insight, suggestions and enthusiasm. You make this Group great.
See you on the 18th.
I thought Christian's presentation was just outstanding -- describing his business, businss model and how it works. He was clear and concise too. It seems that most of the people in the meeting had some type of exposure to startup work and I thought that was great too.
November 19, 2008
Again, great venue, good presentations, always well planned and organized...and Google is a great host - thanks!
November 19, 2008
Loved it all :)
November 18, 2008
Hi! KI will come with 10 French entrepreneurs participating to a Trade Mission I'm organizing in Silicon Valley. Thanks!

Shipping Oversupply Persists Despite Scrapping Increase: Drewry
A record number of around 150 container vessels are expected to be scrapped in 2016 but it will not be enough for an industry battling over capacity, low demand and falling rates, consultancy firm Drewry said. In 2015, demolitions were less than half of the expected 2016 level but it will not be a real relief for the struggling container shipping industry. "This will only make a dent into the over-capacity built during the 2010-15 period," Drewry wrote in a note.

Many Depressed Teens Don't Get Follow-Up Care
- 2016 Feb 09
*The following is excerpted from an online article posted on HealthDay.
Depression can strike during the teen years, but too many U.S. teenagers with the illness are not getting proper follow-up care, a new study finds.
"These results raise concerns about the quality of care for adolescent depression," concluded a team led by Briannon O'Connor, who conducted the study while at New York University School of Medicine.
One expert wasn't surprised by the findings.
"Most adolescents who are depressed do not receive any treatment whatsoever for their impairments for many reasons, including lack of access to care, stigma, and a workplace shortage of trained child and adolescent psychiatrists," said Dr. Aaron Krasner, chief of the Adolescent Transitional Living Service at Silver Hill Hospital in New Canaan, Conn.
As the study authors explained, major depression affects 12 percent of teens, and as many as 26 percent of young people experience at least mild depression. Prompt treatment is crucial because failure to relieve depression increases the risk of recurrent depression and more impaired functioning in the long term, the researchers said.
In the new study, O'Connor's team tracked the care of more than 4,600 teens with depression symptoms. The teens averaged 16 years of age, and two-thirds of them were girls. All were patients in one of three large health care systems.
Treatment was started for more than 2,900 of the teens -- most received talk therapy alone or in combination with antidepressants.
However, 36 percent of the teens received no treatment at all within three months of their diagnosis, and more than two-thirds (68 percent) did not have any follow-up assessment. About a fifth (19 percent) did not receive any follow-up care, and 40 percent of those teens who were prescribed antidepressants did not undergo documented follow-up care, the researchers reported.
Dr. Jane Swedler is chief of adolescent medicine at Winthrop-University Hospital in Mineola, N.Y. She called the new findings "very disturbing."
"It appears that the initial recommendations for treatment --- therapy referral, medications or both -- are being offered to most patients," she said. "However, a significant portion of those patients did not have follow-up scheduled in the following three months.
"It is clear from this study that the guidelines for follow-up of adolescent depression fall significantly below the mark," Swedler said, "and that we must improve monitoring and follow-up of those adolescents identified with depression."
The study was published online Feb. 1 in the journal JAMA Pediatrics.

Gravity Suit
this wiki
This is a featured article. |
The Gravity Suit (グラビティスーツ Gurabiti Sūtsu) (Gravity Feature in Metroid: Other M) is an upgrade for Samus Aran's Power Suit. As its name implies, the Gravity Suit is known for negating gravitational effects such as zero gravity in space. The Gravity Suit enhancement is obtained after the Varia Suit; the addition turns sections of Samus's armor purple, reduces the damage she takes (to a greater extent than the Varia alone), and allows her to move in fluid unhindered by the resistance and pressure it would normally exert. In Metroid Prime, the Gravity Suit also enhances the visor so it can give a better, clearer view while underwater. In Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion and Metroid: Zero Mission (but not Metroid Prime or Metroid: Other M), the Gravity Suit also negates damage sustained from contact with magma. In Super Metroid, Metroid: Other M and Metroid: Zero Mission, it is the final suit Samus acquires.
The Gravity Feature in Other M works like the Hazard Shield in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, in that the Power Suit is covered with an aura when the upgrade is used on certain environments. There is also an aura depicted around the Varia Suit in artwork in Metroid 's manual, and the Phazon Suit emanates an aura.
In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes the benefits of the Gravity Suit are instead granted by the Gravity Boost accessory.
Official dataEdit
Super Metroid manualEdit
"This suit reduces the damage from enemy attacks to one fourth and allows you to move freely in water-filled areas."
Official Metroid Prime websiteEdit
Weapon effect: N/A
Weapon range: N/A
Weapon potential: Non-lethal
"Power Suit Upgrade
The Gravity Suit upgrade allows for improved movement in liquid environments. The Gravity Suit does not protect its wearer from exposure to hazardous fluids. Importantly, visor modifications built into the Gravity Suit make it easy for Samus Aran to see underwater."
Metroid Prime manualEdit
"The Gravity Suit upgrades Samus's suit even more. It negates the effects of water, allowing Samus to move and jump normally even while submerged."
Inventory dataEdit
Gravity Suit
The Gravity Suit eliminates the effects of liquid on movement.
This modification improves your defensive shielding.
The Gravity Suit allows for improved movement in liquid environments, but does not reduce damage delivered when exposed to hazardous fluids.
Visor modifications in the Gravity Suit make it easier to see underwater.
Metroid Fusion manualEdit
"Further reduces damage from enemy attacks. Allows for normal movement in aquatic and other areas. Also protects Samus from lava."
Zero Mission Samus Screen dataEdit
"Reduces damage from foes. Enables free movement in water. Stops lava damage."
Metroid: Other M manualEdit
"3. Gravity Feature: Negates the effects of liquids and extreme gravity and further reduces damage from enemy attacks."
Metroid: Other M Samus Screen dataEdit
"Effects: Negates the effects of liquid and super gravity and further reduces enemy attack damage."
Metroid: Other M Onscreen dataEdit
This further reduces damage from enemies and negates the effects of gravitational fields.
Metroid: Other M Strategy GuideEdit
"Gravity Feature: The Gravity Feature upgrade is specifically designed to negate all abnormal gravitational effects. If you enter an area where the gravitational pull is stronger than normal, the Gravity Feature will normalize the effect, making it so you can function at full capacity, rather than be affected by the stronger gravitational pull. The same is true when you're in liquid. In liquid, you will experience a lighter gravitational pull, making you more "floaty." The Gravity Feature weighs you down to normal levels."
Iwata AsksEdit
''Morisawa: For the most part, it was left to my responsibility, but there were points on which Sakamoto-san would definitely not budge. An example that made quite an impression on me was Samus's Power Suit, and the way it changes color as its various abilities are unlocked.
Iwata: Ah yes, it changes.
Morisawa: At first it's yellow, then the typical orange, then finally it becomes the Gravity Suit, so that Samus is purple. That is Nintendo's official specification, so naturally we started making the final Power Suit in purple. Towards the end of the game, however, there are some serious dramatic scenes. As Sakamoto-san was watching one of these cinematics, where Samus appeared in purple, he said "why is Samus wearing purple?"
Iwata: He said that, even though it had been the specification from the very beginning! (laughs)
Morisawa: Yes! (laughs) So I told him 'she's wearing the Gravity Suit, that's why she's purple'. His response, however, was 'but it looks strange to have this purple person popping up during such a serious conversation'. It would then become an exchange along the lines of me saying 'But this is the specification!' and him responding 'No, no, definitely strange'.
Iwata: Ha ha! (laughs)
Morisawa: So we'd consult Kitaura-san as well, but he'd also say 'yes, purple really is strange'. All I could think was 'Huh?! So what should we do now?' These kinds of specifications had been there from the very beginning, from before my time, but they'd just say 'No, we definitely want Samus in orange here'. I just groaned and put my head in my hands.
Iwata: It sounds like you had the ladder pulled out from under you. (laughs) So how did you resolve the situation?
Morisawa: Basically, I brought out various color patterns, trying to push them back towards purple a little bit, but they couldn't agree to that, saying it was orange they wanted. In the end, therefore, we decided to indicate that the gravity features are attached to the suit by making the green lights on Samus's chest glow a purple-like pink when the gravity features are unlocked.
Iwata: So in other words, the suit color stayed orange, but the color of the lights on her chest changed to a purplish pink?
Morisawa: Yes. We explained this clearly in the manual, but as the person entrusted with the visual settings of Metroid: Other M, it just didn't sit right with me. Then later I remembered working on Metroid: Zero Mission for Game Boy Advance in the past. At that time one member of staff came to me and said 'the specifications for the previous game say this, but this time it's a little different, is it ok?' That time I was the one who'd gone against the specifications.
Benefits chartEdit
The following chart details the benefits bestowed by the Gravity Suit in each game:
Game | Damage reduction | Other benefits |
Metroid: Zero Mission | 50% | Allows free movement underwater and provides protection from magma. |
Metroid Prime | 20% |
Allows free movement in liquids and negates low or extreme gravity effects. |
Super Metroid | 25%* | Allows free movement underwater and provides protection from most types of magma. (Upper Norfair) |
Metroid: Other M | 75% | Allows free movement and reduces lava damage. |
Metroid Fusion | 70% | Allows free movement underwater and provides protection from magma. |
*Note that the Gravity Suit alone provides only 25% damage reduction, but when combined with the Varia Suit, the damage reduction is increased to 75%. Other numbers represent total reduction, as in other games, Samus cannot use the Gravity Suit without the Varia Suit.
In other mediaEdit
In the Super Smash Bros. series, Samus's standard outfit is the Varia Suit, and an optional, purple-blue alternate color scheme that Samus can use resembles the Gravity Suit.
Super Smash Bros. BrawlEdit
"A Power Suit that provides even more damage protection than the Varia Suit. This Gravity Suit also allows Samus to move without water resistance when underwater. In most games in the series, this suit also blocks lava damage and friction. In addition, it allows Samus to use item bonuses like the High Jump, Space Jump, and Speed Booster, even when underwater or in lava."
- Gravity Suit Samus Metroid: Zero Mission [Weapon] Attack +11 (Samus, Zero Suit Samus)
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS trophyEdit
- Samus (Gravity Suit)
- "Power Suits aren't known for being good in water, so if you're the aquatic type, what you need is a Gravity Suit. This stylish, glowing suit upgrade not only completely nullifies fluid resistance— making moving underwater a breeze—but also reduces damage and improves your underwater vision. What more could you ask for?"
The PAL version of this description is slightly different: "Power Suits aren't known for being good in water, so if you're the aquatic type, what you need is a Gravity Suit. This stylish purple suit upgrade not only completely nullifies fluid resistance, making moving underwater a breeze, but also lets you see better underwater and even reduces damage. What more could you ask for?!"

- Despite ending Metroid: Zero Mission and Metroid Prime with the Gravity Suit, Samus starts their sequels with the Varia Suit.
- In Super Smash Bros. Brawl's adventure mode, Zero Suit Samus and Pikachu encounter two purple clones of the Power Suit. Their purple color is similar to the Gravity Suit.
- As it becomes further corrupted, the PED Suit and Hazard Shield begin to turn purple, resembling the Gravity Suit.
- Space Pirates seem to have copied Gravity Suit technology, as scans in Metroid Prime claim that Aqua Pirates used Gravity Suit technology to survive underwater. Also, in Super Metroid, the Pink Space Pirates in the underwater region of Maridia may use this technology.
- In Metroid Prime, what accents would be green with the Varia Suit (the circle on the back of Samus' hand, her visor, the lights on her legs, and the grooves of her shoulder pads) turn blue with the Gravity Suit, but in the other games they are green. In Other M, they are pink.
- In the final cutscene of Prime, the Gravity Suit is shown with the green accents of the Varia suit, rather than the blue accents used throughout the game. It also has the Varia Suit's more pronounced pauldron indentations, and lacks the Gravity Suit's usual bright purple reflections. This is likely because Samus' helmetless model was based on the Varia Suit, and later retextured improperly in an attempt to make it match the Gravity Suit.
- According to unused text in a beta build, the Gravity Suit in Prime was intended to protect against magma. It is unknown why this function was removed. [2]
- In Metroid: Other M, the Gravity Feature does not change the color of Samus' suit. Only when its gravity-altering powers are in effect, the suit gains a purple aura and turns her visor, chest plate, shoulder plate, Arm Cannon's green lining, and the hind knee joints lights pink. It negates the extreme gravity in certain areas of the Cryosphere near Sector Zero, but it does not protect Samus from magma damage. The Gravity Feature also protects Samus from air currents when an area of the ship is decompressing, seen in the Control Bridge when she fights Phantoon. It should be noted that the Gravity Feature's damage reduction will always take place, even if the aura is not active.
- The reason why the Gravity Suit coloration in Other M is different is because of Yoshio Sakamoto's creative preferences. When he saw purple-colored Suit in serious-toned cutscenes, namely, Dr. Madeline Bergman's explanation of the conspiracy, he found that the purple Suit's presence in a serious scene was silly and asked for the change.
- The SA-X may have possessed the Gravity Feature from Other M, but it does not have the pink accents present in the decompressing Docking Bays when it and Samus fight the Omega Metroid.
- In Metroid Prime, several Sequence Breaks can be performed to skip the Gravity Suit. The Gravity Suit can also be gained before the Varia Suit by passing through the Twin Fires Tunnel without the Spider Ball. If the Gravity Suit is skipped and Samus kills the Omega Pirate, the Phazon Suit acquisition cutscene will depict Samus wearing the Gravity Suit when it should be the Phazon Suit. When the cutscene is over, the color scheme will revert to Phazon. The same applies to acquiring the Gravity Suit before the Varia Suit: Samus will appear to gain the Varia Suit, but it then reverts to the Gravity Suit.
- Similarly, if the Gravity Suit is skipped in Super Metroid, she will still be wearing it in the ending.
- If Samus where to acquire the Gravity suit before the Spider Ball, the Morph Ball will still look as though Samus suit is the Varia Suit.
- Similarly, if the Gravity Suit is skipped in Super Metroid, she will still be wearing it in the ending.
- In Metroid Prime, the Gravity Suit was modeled and skinned by Gene Kohler.
- There is a machine at the bottom of Nightmare's Room that resembles the Gravity Suit powerup from Super Metroid. This fact may refer to the Suit being the reward for defeating Nightmare in Fusion, or a cross-reference to the creature's gravity manipulating powers.
- Interestingly enough, Samus does not use the Gravity Suit to survive Bomad's gravity bomb in Samus and Joey, instead using her Morph Ball.

Oundle School
Oundle School is one of Britains leading co-educational boarding and day schools. It is situated in the quintessentially English market town from which it takes its name, about 90 kilometres north of London. Its buildings, dating from the 17th to the 21st centuries, are dispersed throughout the town, so that the town itself, with a population of about 6,000, is to a large extent the School campus. The School's history dates back to 1556 and it was then that Oundle's strong links with the Grocers Company of the City of London were established.
At the beginning of the 20th century, Oundle was put firmly on the map of leading English public schools by its most famous headmaster, F W Sanderson. He created Oundle's reputation as one of the great science and engineering schools a reputation that has lasted up to the present day, aided in 2007 by the opening of a major new science complex.
In 1990, Oundle admitted girls for the first time: they now constitute 40% of all pupils. Oundle is now the third largest independent boarding and day school in England, with 861 full boarders and 250 day pupils. The boarders come from 130 prep schools from all over the United Kingdom, with about 10% coming from 22 countries overseas. Each pupil is a member of a boarding or day house. The house system is at the heart of life at Oundle. It is in the community of the house that most pupils find the confidence and sense of purpose that lead to fulfilment in the larger community of the School. Oundle has 13 senior boarding houses 8 for boys and 5 for girls. They are specifically designed to have accommodation for a married housemaster or housemistress and about 60 pupils.
