Angry Birds Seasons
by: Rovio Entertainment Corporation • 1.7M
All Android applications categories
by: Rovio Entertainment Corporation • 1.7M
Published: 2014-11-27, by Manu Galvez.
This new release of Angry Birds Seasons is a package with new levels that include new structures and challenges. The object of the game is still the same: to flatten all the green pigs in sight by launching the angry birds with a slingshot. A variety of birds with different abilities can be used to break down different kind of structures. Popping pigs and breaking down structures is the way to score: you'll need fewer birds to kill all the pigs and your score increases the more structures you target. Get it just right and you'll be awarded with three stars in each level (so you can collect more golden eggs).
Although the game's performance is still the same, Angry Birds Seasons brings new options such as leaderboards, achievements and Facebook/Youtube integrations, among other extra features. If you've never tried any of the Angry Birds games, we recommend you to start with the classic Angry Birds (check out the review in the app sheet to find out more about the game).
Angry Birds Seasons has been developed by Rovio, an entertainment media company based in Finland, founded in 2003 as a mobile game development studio. Rovio has shipped over 50 mobile titles and developed games with Electronic Arts, Nokia, Vivendi, Namco Bandai and Mr. Goodliving/Real Networks. Since its success with the Angry Birds franchise, Rovio is rapidly expanding its activities in broadcast media, merchandising, publishing and services.
If you liked Angry Birds, you will love this one since it brings you extra levels and features to keep on beating those green pigs.

The Schizophrenia Of My Days/Please Analyze My Dream, Part 2!
Making breakfasts and lunches, dropping off at school on the way to fancy fashion shows. It's fun. Btw, peanut butter is turned upside down, not because I quickly faked a photo to make it look like I make lunches every morning if you are the type to think that way -- wow, I'm paranoid -- but because it is easier to stir up if the oil is on the bottom, I have found, in all my mothering-of-a-picky-eating-kid days. ANYWAY, you were so helpful in analyzing my last odd dream (Alyssa Max and oceanchild716 were particularly enlightening) that I am turning last night's over to you for your help as well, if you are so inclined:
I dreamt that my pubic hair was so long that it wrapped around my leg (sorry, fashionistas who are so turned off by this that they are throwing up a little in their mouths and vowing never to return to this site again and sorry to my own in-house fashionista, Eric, for writing it, but it is the truth) and I was embarrassed and looking for scissors to cut it off. Then I went into my clothes closet and saw that the recent hurricane and rains had caused water to leak down through the walls (somewhat based on reality -- we did have a leak through our roof after Irene -- but this was much more extreme). When I would touch the walls, the plaster would disintegrate and fall to the floor. Also, the door then fell apart and came off its hinges -- all due to how wet everything was. Now as I am writing this, along with the pubic hair thing earlier in the dream, it is sounding very sexual. Or maybe that's just me thinking that way. Please interpret or just tell me your weird recent dreams and I will try to interpret them for you. xox

Oct. 16
Pulaski Co. at Lady Knights, 7 p.m.
District championships at MCHS, 6 and 8 pm.
Cross country
Marion County at Taylor/Campbellsville All-Comers, 5 p.m.
Well, it was a slow week for sports here at The Enterprise. Unfortunately, with the soccer teams finishing up their season on the road, I wasn't left with as much to cover this week. Thankfully, George Spragens went with the boys team and was generous enough to send photos. He also took pictures of an autumn baseball game at St. Catherine's College, pitting the Marion County Knights pitted against Bethlehem and Bardstown in a double-header.
History always repeats itself.
Picking up from where they left off last week – in soaking conditions, the Marion County Knights took their third one-point win of the season over the Mercer County Titans on Oct. 10. The Knights (5-2) won the heated affair 20-19.
The Marion County Lady Knights took a victory over the Bardstown Lady Tigers on Oct. 9.
Adding icing to the top of their cake, the 3-1 victory was a sweet ending for the 12 seniors of the team because it also happened to be senior night.
"We played really hard in the beginning," Lady Knights senior Mckenzie Reynolds said.
The Lady Knights (18-14) lost a chance to win the game in the third set and finished 25-21, 25-18, 21-25, 25-22.
Reynolds said they relaxed in third set which is what gave Bardstown (13-16) the win.
On Oct. 9, the Marion County Knights visited the Bethlehem Eagles for their final game of the regular season. Unfortunately, the Knights fell 6-1 in the contest against the Eagles (9-8-1).
The Knights (3-13-3) will begin post-season play on Tuesday after press time. Marion County will host this year's 18th district tournament, and will be hosting all soccer district tournaments until further notice.
Well, our 2014 youth deer hunt was bad and good, weather-wise.
Saturday was just plain miserable with all the rain. Of course, there are those who consider the off and on rain, and cool temperatures, the best weather for hunting deer.
Then came Sunday with a beautiful, rain free, morning. The temperature was good and the wind was acceptable for the morning and evening hours.
I know of several youth who took advantage of the weekend, but as I write this I haven't heard what kind of luck they had.

FACE Balkans Meeting
FACE staff and Members from Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia met in Dolenjske Toplice, Slovenia, to discuss emerging issues and how best to ensure closer cooperation. In recent years there have been moves to align national nature and hunting legislation in the region with that of the Council of Europe's Bern Convention and the EU Birds and Habitats Directives. The future accession of Croatia to the European Union on July 2013, is also of particular prominence. The meeting was a very important occasion to exchange information on European nature policy and its application at national level.
In many of the countries in the region, there is a growing influence of protectionist organisations that regularly push their agenda using the premise that alignment with EU legislation requires stricter environmental and wildlife protection measures. In many instances this is not the case: for example Natura 2000 is not a system of strictly protected areas but an integrated system of areas that are important for conservation and in which hunting and other activities can take place, as long as they do not conflict with the reason for the designation.
This Region remains rich in both hunting and nature. It was agreed by all that closer collaboration is needed to ensure that hunters are not adversely affected by changes made within the framework of potential EU accession. In this regard all agreed that regular meetings should take place, and Nikola Markovič, President of the Hunting Association of Montenegro offered to hold the meeting next year in his country.

International Biotech Firm Funds Research Into Aging Through Foundation of UMDNJ
Mar 16, 2011, 12:45 ET
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J., March 16, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Working with the Foundation of UMDNJ and New Jersey Health Foundation, Rostock Biotech Research Ltd, headquartered in Moscow, Russia, has donated $100,000 to fund the research of Dr. Alexey G. Ryazanov, a professor in the Department of Pharmacology at UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School (RWJMS) and a member of The Cancer Institute of New Jersey.
The Blue Sky Research and Development Fund in Pharmacology in the Department of Pharmacology allows Dr. Ryazanov to investigate cellular and molecular mechanisms of aging and age-related diseases and to pursue research that would lead to better understanding of the fundamental principles of drug action.
"This funding permits Dr. Ryazanov to pursue cutting edge research without limitations on ideas or hypothesis," explained Dmitri Khan of Rostock Group, parent of Rostock Biotech Research. "We hope it will open the door for Dr. Ryazanov and his team to make unlimited discoveries that will have a positive impact in the future."
Working in concert with donors, the Foundation of UMDNJ/New Jersey Health Foundation can develop fund agreements that are individually tailored to meet donor needs.
"Because many of our donors wish to remain connected to the areas they help fund, this agreement, like many others we have developed, provides an opportunity for representatives from Rostock to meet with department representatives periodically to discuss innovative findings that might come about as a result of this research," explained George F. Heinrich, M.D., vice chair and CEO of the Foundation. "It's very exciting for a researcher to be able to share his or her results with others who are passionate about their work."
To learn more about how you can fund research in an area that means the most to you, contact James M. Golubieski, Foundation president, at (908) 731-6601 or email@example.com.

My Grandma Deloris and Grandpa Max would make these all the time when I was growing up! You can make these any size you want, but I think making them huge is so much more fun and memorable.
Giant Black Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies
3 sticks unsalted butter, softened
1 cup white granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups white all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup black raspberry jam
Confectioner's sugar, for dusting
Start by creaming together the softened unsalted butter and white granulated sugar. Stir in the pure vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the white all-purpose flour and salt.
Add this mixture gradually to the butter and sugar mixture. Stir until combined.
Once the dough comes together, remove to a floured working surface and pat into a disk. Wrap with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
When ready, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place on a floured working surface. Using a well floured rolling pin, roll dough out to about the thickness of a nickel. Cut out round circles using a well floured 3-inch round cutter.
Place the circles onto the prepared parchment paper lined baking sheets, leaving just a small space around each.
When all the circles are cut and placed, place both baking sheets into the refrigerator to chill firmly for 20 minutes.
Bake each baking sheet, one at a time, for exactly 23 minutes. Remove and immediately place your thumb print into the middle of each cookie. This is hot work. Use the back of a spoon if you do not want to burn your thumb. Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature.
When cooled, place black raspberry jam in a bowl and whisk until spreadable.
Dollop a good size amount – about two tablespoons – of the jam into the center of each cookie. Dust with confectioner's sugar. Place back in refrigerator to chill for several minutes before serving.
These can be served chilled or at room temperature.

Battlefield Tours

The Jebel Akhdar Rebellion Battlefield Tour
The five-day tour includes the following elements:
- The use of road and off-road routes pre-selected and tested by our team to reach unparalleled locations where the progress of the campaign can be viewed, photographed and walked over
- Cultural and historical introduction to the Jebel Akhdar region, usually including witness statements by local tribesmen and first-hand experience of the unique social and anthropological setting of the dramatic events themselves
- An interlinked series of lectures, seminars and briefings both in and outdoors that together provide a range and breadth of knowledge vital to comprehend the course and outcome of the campaign
- Map and field based exercises to test and expand participants' knowledge of terrain, troops and tactics involved in this specialist type of fighting
- Long and short hikes over the battlefield leading to viewpoints and locations that enhance understanding of the physical and military challenges met and overcome by the SAF, SAS and other troops involved
- A unique chance to appreciate the breath-taking scenery, rare flora and fauna and special climate of Oman's Jebel Akhdar while undertaking this historical tour
Military clients have the option, with additional monetary and time implications, to add the following extra components to reach identified training objectives, in consultation with our specialist armed forces training team:
- Counter Insurgency – the Petraeus Doctrine
- Use of Command, Control, Computing and Intelligence techniques in this type of conflict
- Application of Human Intelligence, Psyops, and cultural aspects
- Manoeuvre in the desert/mountain environment
- Special consideration of the application of fire (indirect weapons)

For more detail on the above click here.
All mapping, study materials and digital support is provided at the point of booking and payment via .pdf or similar means
The tour does not include:
- Accommodation, however we do provide advice on camping and hotels in the area
- 4WD vehicles, but we do provide details of vetted companies proving 4WD vehicles (compulsory) and drivers
- Meals. Nonetheless drinking water is provided in your own refillable containers, as are refreshments and snacks at certain checkpoints
- Fitness training, which will be needed to undertake the rather strenuous walking and climbing (scrambling over rocks only) involved
General Outline of the Itinerary: Muscat; Nizwa; Sayq Plateau; Al Ayn; As Sawjrah; Ar Rus; Wadi Bani Habib; Tanuf and Wadi Tanuf
Price: AED 29,500 for up to 20 participants. Smaller or larger groups should contact the office at email@example.com

Highland Eyeglasses
What do you seek out when choosing a place to get your eye care and to have your prescription for eyeglasses or contact lenses filled? At EyeCare Associates of San Bernardino, we provide expert service, attention to your individual needs, high quality lens craftsmanship done right here on site, and our 1 hour prescription lenses in Highland.
We're pleased to offer a wide array of designer frames for you to choose from when getting a new or updated eyeglass prescription. No matter what your taste, budget, or facial type, we have something that will be just perfect for you. Among the immediately recognizable names that you'll find here are Revlon, DKNY, Ray Ban, Harley-Davidson, Tommy Bahama, and Joseph Abboud. Add in a variety of colors, styles, and shapes and you have a selection that is bound to meet with your approval. Of course, your frames aren't much use without the lenses that go in them to improve your eyesight. Our opticians are highly skilled and you can be sure that your prescription lenses will correct your farsightedness, nearsightedness, astigmatism, or presbyopia. If you need bifocals or multifocals, that's also something we can do easily with our 1 hour prescription lenses in Highland.
Of course, you might also choose contact lenses. And why not? Today's contacts are more comfortable and provide better vision than the ones made even 5 years ago. Hard lenses are often the best choice for severe nearsightedness or astigmatism and they provide the sharpest and clearest vision of all contacts. Soft lenses come in four basic types and are generally the easiest to become accustomed to. Color-changing contacts let you try on a completely different eye color and you can get them with our without prescription eyesight correction. The other types are all for improving your vision and meet the needs of your lifestyle and preferences. They include daily wear, extended wear, and disposable. All can be had as part of our 1 hour prescription lenses in Highland.
If it has been longer than a year since your last eye exam, please call us to schedule one with our optometrist. In addition to determining your current need for eyeglasses or contacts, it's also important to be screened for common eye diseases like cataracts and glaucoma. It's all part of our full service that includes our 1 hour prescription lenses in Highland.

Search for shark teeth at Englewood and Blind Pass beaches. (Photo: Hemera Technologies/PhotoObjects.net/Getty Images )
Nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and Lemon Bay, Manasota Key offers a quieter alternative to some of the region's busier beaches. The island is located midway between Sarasota and Fort Myers on Florida's western coast, and it's home to exclusive and secluded homes, a historic artist's retreat and four quiet beaches. While you're visiting Manasota Key, you can enjoy its laid back atmosphere and variety of things to do both on and near the key.
If you're looking for some of the least crowded beaches in the state, you've come to the right place. Although Englewood Beach is in the resort-filled area at southern end of Manasota Key, it is still quiet and secluded. The beach is close to restaurants and shopping, and has picnic areas, a boardwalk and restrooms. With about 60 acres of shoreline, Blind Pass Beach, located in the middle of Manasota Key, offers more seclusion than the other beaches on the key. Blind Pass has a nature boardwalk trail, playground, picnic shelter, restrooms with showers and a public dock.
Nearly every part of the quiet community of Manasota Key is designated as a wildlife sanctuary, making it a haven for wildlife viewing. While you're on the beach, watch for dolphin or manatees. Look for sea turtles by checking for trails left by mother turtles in the sand going to and from the water to their nests. The hiking trail at Stump Pass Beach State Park, located at the southern part of Manasota Key, is one of the best spots for bird-watching and other wildlife viewing. The trail takes you through various wildlife habitats where you can find gopher tortoises, West Indian manatees and snowy egrets.
Launch your boat from the county-maintained ramps at the northern end of Manasota Key or those located at Indian Mound Park, which is on the mainland, about 4 1/2 miles away. Rent a boat or charter one to tour some of the other islands, including nearby Captiva, Cabbage Key or Gasparilla Islands. Cast your line to catch some of the area's saltwater fish such as tarpon, mackerel, sheepshead or grouper on an excursion with Captain's Jack Charters, or anchor your boat in Lemon Bay, where the artificial reefs are often populated by fish.
If you crave a little more action, take a drive 14 miles north to downtown Venice. The historic downtown area is one of the state's "Main Street Cities," and is filled with architecture and landscaping that date back to the city's original plans created in 1925. Downtown hosts art shows in spring and fall and is home to more than 100 boutiques, restaurants and other businesses. Punta Gorda, located roughly 26 miles from Manasota Key, was founded in 1882. It retains much of its Old Florida charm, particularly in the historic district, where Fishermen's Village is located. Fishermen's Village has a marina, boutique shops, a museum dedicated to military heritage and many restaurants.

Download citation file: RIS (Zotero) EndNote BibTex Medlars ProCite RefWorks Reference Manager Mendeley © Copyright Tools Search Book Top Return Clip Autosuggest Results ++ Of all the painful states that afflict humans, headache is undoubtedly the most frequent and rivals backache as the most common reason for seeking medical help. In fact, there are so many cases of headache that special headache clinics have been established in many medical centers. In addition to its frequency in general practice, many headaches are caused by general medical rather than neurologic diseases, and the subject is the legitimate concern of the general physician. Yet there is always the question of intracranial disease, so that it is difficult to approach the subject without a knowledge of neurologic medicine. ++ Why so many pains are centered in the head is a question of some interest. Several explanations come to mind. For one thing, the face and scalp are more richly supplied with pain receptors than many other parts of the body, perhaps to protect the precious contents of the skull. Also, the nasal and oral passages, the eye, and the ear—all delicate and highly sensitive structures—reside here and must be protected; when affected by disease, each is capable of inducing pain in its own way. Finally, there is greater concern about what happens to the head than to other parts of the body, since the former houses the brain, and headache frequently raises the specter of brain tumor or other cerebral disease. ++ Semantically, the term headache encompasses all aches and pains located in the head, but in practice, its application is restricted to discomfort in the region of the cranial vault. Facial, lingual, and pharyngeal pains are put aside as something different and are discussed separately in the latter part of this chapter and in Chap. 47, on the cranial nerves. ++ In the introductory chapter on pain, reference was made to the necessity, in dealing with any painful state, of determining its quality, severity, location, duration, and time course as well as the conditions that produce, exacerbate, or relieve it. In the case of headache, a detailed history following these lines will determine the diagnosis more often than will the physical examination or imaging. Although the examination is unlikely to be revealing, a few aspects are worth emphasis. Auscultation of the skull may disclose a bruit (with large arteriovenous malformations), and palpation may disclose the tender, hardened or elevated arteries of temporal arteritis, sensitive areas overlying a cranial metastasis, an inflamed paranasal sinus, or a tender occipital nerve, examination of neck flexion may reveal meningitis; however, apart from such special instances, examination of the head itself, although necessary, seldom discloses the diagnosis. ++ As to the quality of cephalic pain, the patient's description may or may not be helpful. When asked to compare the pain to some other sensory experience, the patient may allude to tightness, aching, pressure, bursting, sharpness, or stabbing. The most important information to be obtained is whether the headache is pulsatile, but one must keep in mind that patients sometimes use ...

Lindsay Lohan Angered by New Year's Eve Claim
Lindsay Lohan will not celebrate New Year's 2012 in Dubai.
Or so says Lohan's rep Steve Honig. He was responding to a report that Lohan will ring in the New Year at a big party in Dubai. That report came from an overseas party planning company, according to media reports. But sources said Lohan was most upset that her name was being used to promote a big New Year's eve bash on the Queen Elizabeth 2 cruise ship in Dubai, according to antimusic.com.
We're told Lindsay's legal team is pounding out a cease and desist letter -- claiming she's prepared to sue the pants off the party people if they continue to lie about Lohan's NYE plans, the Web site reported.
Lohan's rep Honig concurred that Lohan will not be in Dubai, according to TMZ: Lindsay is not going to Dubai, nor had she ever considered doing so. She will be spending New Year's Eve in Los Angeles with a few close friends and family.
Lohan has struggled in recent years with arrests and rumors of reports of drug abuse, yet she stormed back into the public eye in a different way this month with a nude Playboy spread.

I was slack jawed. Sitting across the table from a very successful thirty-something founder I was listening to him lament the hiring of a fifty+ year old CEO for one of his companies. There is no shame in making a bad hire, but he found only one proximal cause for the poor performance: the guy's age. Listening to his description of that CEO's failings, I was thinking what a horrible overall fit for the job this person was. Yet the founder's conclusion was, "I'm never going to hire anyone over 35 again." My conclusion was: you made a bad hire.
So it goes in The Valley sometimes. Age is strangely a proxy for performance, reflexively, maddeningly inversely proportional. It is irrelevant that the data say otherwise. I think later that week I saw yet another one of Forbes's lists. I think this one was "The Ten under Ten." Yet here I was, over forty and seemingly surrounded by amazing, inspirational, crazy risk-taking, exceptionally excellent over-forty year old doers.
The myth of older founders is pernicious: too comfortable, they don't think big enough, not hungry enough, etc. Elon Musk doesn't think big enough? Hadi Partovi is resting on his laurels with the founding of code.org? Where does the correlation of age to the myth of The Valley hero/heroine come from? One of the very founders of Silicon Valley itself Robert Noyce founded Intel when he was 41. Might it be that age is an incidental variable in human motivation, behind say, actual motivation? Steve Jobs was forty-two when he re-took the reigns at Apple and invented the iPod.
The data is interesting and while conclusive on the even spread of entrepreneurship across age groups (hint: the average age is 40) it's inconclusive on value creation. Aileen Lee's "Unicorn" analysis does a pretty good job on the top end of value creation and suggests that the "twenty something inexperienced founder is an outlier," with the average age of founders for companies valued over $1B being thirty-four. The third most valuable company on her list had an average founder age of fifty-two. It seems some humans simply hit their stride later in life. Julia Child published her first recipe at forty-nine. Some strike innovation early. Picasso's never did anything as important as the work in his twenties. So the data is out there but many have simply ignored it.
The week after Brian Acton (42) sold WhatsApp for $19B, I thought: maybe anecdotes are more powerful than data. So here you have a list of anecdotes, inspired by the inimical list of the "under under" set, but this one goes "over." We give you the TechCrunch 40 over 40. Forty amazing entrepreneurs over forty years old. This list was fun and easy to put together. There is no shortage of over-forties taking big and small risks, changing the world and inspiring many. I hope you enjoy their stories.

the first new device i saw at the mobius 2003 opening reception was the samsung nexio s160 that lisa gade had in her hands. i checked it out for a few minutes, but wanted to see more.
dynamism, the u.s. importer of a ton of gadgets not directly available here, was kind enough to send me a review sample of the device with the optional external keyboard. i have been debating getting a laptop or tablet pc, and after seeing lisa use the s160 exclusively at mobius i thought it might be a less expensive alternative.
box contents
the device arrived, and after opening up the box i was amazed by how thin and light it felt in my hand. i plugged in the charger, a rather large oval piece that plugs into the wall, and examined the rest of the box contents. the nexio comes with both english and chinese language cds (with activesync 2.6, nexio sync, flash player and manager, a user guide, and zio golf 2), a full english manual (the device was approved by the fcc), a handwriting guide card, headphones with integrated microphone, a usb cable, and a docking cradle. dynamism also sent the us$59 optional keyboard that replaces the suede leather flip cover on the bottom of the nexio and serves as a screen cover. i really like the leather cover, with magnets to hold it closed over the display.
nexio in cradle with keyboard
the keyboard was a weak point of the package, and one thing that kept me from wanting to go ahead with buying the nexio. you have to use the keyboard on a flat surface since it does not have a hinge that holds it in interim positions. i tried to use it while standing, but it is very difficult to hold the top-heavy unit in place. while the keyboard keys are well spaced, they are also really too far apart for thumb typing. the keys do not have much travel, and it was difficult to tell if i had actually typed a letter or not. my biggest gripes are the fact that there is only one small shift key way over on the bottom right, and no tab key. you have to press ctrl and another key to get the cursor to tab to the next field. also, the shift key is not sticky, which makes using it even more difficult. it was a good idea, but is not well designed.
so, now that the device was all charged up i turned on the nexio to check out the display quality and what was on the device. wow! the display is easily the best display of any pda i have ever seen. it is a 5″ transreflective 16-bit color, 800×480 resolution display with a 190 dpi pixel configuration, and it can only be used in landscape mode. the default loaded text was extremely clear, but also very small–then i found that the system font could be enlarged to an acceptable level.
desktop view
there is also a 5-way directional pad, integrated microphone, three hardware buttons, a vga out connector, speaker, compactflash type ii slot, and a non-user replaceable 1500 ma lithium ion battery. there is a small insert placed in the cf slot that can be removed and connected to the back of the nexio in order to make the display stand up on a flat surface. there is also a reset switch in the back that i never had to use until i returned the device.
three indicator lights along the top let you know if you are low on power or charging, wi-fi status, and if an alert or reminder has been activated. the stylus is similar to the sony cli� telescoping model, but is longer and feels much more substantial.
the s160 runs windows ce 4.1 (windows mobile 2003 devices are based on windows ce 4.2) on a 400mhz xscale processor. there is plenty of memory on the devices, with 128 mb of ram (87 mb available to the user) and 64 mb of nand flash rom (32 mb available to the user). you will also find the device comes loaded with several applications in the rom: internet explorer, word, excel, and powerpoint viewers, as well as programs to edit and create word and excel documents, an awesome casino game that really takes advantage of the beautiful display, standard outlook pim apps (that are very usable on the large landscape display), msn messenger, and other useful tools.
the desktop looks similar to windows xp, and from the start bar you can access the control panel. i was able to load up textmaker (which really rocks on a device with this size of display), mobipocket reader, and listpro without any problem. i read that other pocket pc applications will also work.
integrated 802.11b wi-fi is included in the s160 and works like a charm. after i first turned on the nexio it only took about 20 seconds to get it connected to my home wi-fi network and start surfing. i used the wi-fi quite a bit over my two-week review period, and found it had excellent range that was slightly better than my pocket pc cf wi-fi card.
the nexio s160 will set you back us$1,250, but if you are looking for the latest handheld pc that is rock solid and has an amazing display you may want to check it out. dynamism has some very cool gear for sale, including the latest sharp zaurus sl-c700 devices. dynamism provides toll-free unlimited technical support on everything it sells, and also provides a fedex rescue service to get your device to and from japan during the one-year manufacturer's warranty period.

>>it is a 5″ transreflective 16-bit color, 800×480 resolution display with a 190 dpi pixel configuration, and it can only be used in landscape mode.
wtf? what the hell is with companies like sony and samsung? i know you are giving it a good review here – but i mean, c'com – no portrait mode? maybe this is slighlty less criminal than with sony – i'll reserve final judgement until i see the device. in sony's case – they establish a standard for hi-res api and then go and build a device that essentially laughs in the face of developers who went out of the way to support that standard. now along comes samsung – who clearly put a lot of engineering effort/resources into this device – but they build i device i would never ever use because of the ergonomics.
>>i was able to load up textmaker (which really rocks on a device with this size of display), mobipocket reader, and listpro without any problem. i read that other pocket pc applications will also work.
ummm – how about actually trying some of this software instead of just repeating some promo claim? sure apps thta stick with ces win32 api/controls for the interface will work (at least i hope thats the case for most) but i can't imagine that any ganmes or multimedia will work on this thing because of the obvious difference in screen resolution and subsequent code differences. maybe i'm wrong. but thats exactly the kind of thing i want pdageek to investigate in a review. i'm not trying to slam you for no good reason – it's just that this is a rather important detail. actually – its the only detail that matters since any company can come along and build a great devices (spec-wise) but if it can't run available software (or in this case – is limited to non-graphical software) than its no-good to me.
again – maybe i'm wrong. but prove it please.

if some company would make a pda card for the new gameboy sp with some flash memory built in i bet it would sell. some of us just want to store addresses & phone numbers but don't want to shell out tons of $$ on a pda so we can play games too. this would fix that for a nice price. :-) if there is something like that out there for it the gameboy sp, let me know. thanx – by regulas
|of course it is the best "pda" screen (6:26pm est wed dec 17 2003)
it is hardly surprising that it is the "best pda screen".
it is the biggest pda screen and also happens to be the biggest pda. kind of goes hand in hand.
i'd say this is getting too big to be called a pda (can't take it with you everywhere for a start) but it is cool.
any chance of a picture of it next to a small notebook. prices are not far off…

|not that bad of a deal. (11:48pm est thu dec 18 2003)
keep in mind this thing has not been released in the us. the cost is more for the importing cost (i.e. taxes, shipping,us software) rather than for the device itself. i traveled to korea this past fall and i've seen these on sell for $750. some places a little cheaper. compare that to what you get with the sony ux50 and you see where i'm going with this. – by yisee

|nexio s160 (10:07am est tue jan 06 2004)
extreme portability for a laptop can be a good thing. it depends on your expectations.
i give lots of presentations. the nexio is a great way to bring your slides to to the table with a thunk of a cable. the keyboard has lots of weaknesses, but with some practice (and small hands) it's ideal for notetaking. i am leery about the availability of ce.net compatible downloads, but for what i needed, this was a very good unit. – by psk
|nexio s160 (4:14pm est thu jan 08 2004)
this product is much better for viewing web pages, presentations, rich text documents, etc. than a pocketpc or palm. if accessing the web or other text/graphic heavy documents with a small device is appealling to you, then you may want to check it out. if you have not used the device, you should not comment on the screen, as it is superb. yes, the keyboard is a little awkward to use … so if you have to input a lot of text, then you may be better off with a laptop. – by pkt

|bit overpriced (6:12pm est sat apr 10 2004)
i've been given one to integrate into a application. there is no way i'd buy this at $1250…… its got very limited memory (64mbytes rom/128mbytes ram), a weak radio (v. limited range on 11b compared to normal adapter — antenna problem?) and a short battery life. you can get a workslate for this money, you get get a decent pda with wifi for less than half. nice idea, wait for the price to drop — its worth about $300-$350 to me, no more. – by martin
|excellent pda (12:00am est mon aug 16 2004)
i actually own a nexio s160, and use it frequently.
with the built-in wifi, i sit around with the family now while i'm browsing the web, instead of being off in the computer room.
i found several websites that offer lots of free books, bibles, etc. on my 1 gig cf card, i now have over 4000 books. lol, in fact, i use this thing in church too. i have 13 bibles versions on it, strong's concordance, the writings of josephus, a few greek/english lexicons, and even a cia world facts program (for when the preacher goes too long).
at first, i had problems finding much software, but then i discovered i could load the dll files from windows ce 3.0, 2.0, and 1.0 into the windows directory and run a large number of pocket pc (hpc) software. i even found a bunch of free stuff from microsoft. i still haven't found much windows ce .net stuff, but i have so much hpc-based stuff that i probably don't need it.
it fits in my front shirt pocket with or without the keyboard. when i have a lot of text to enter (like this tome) i use the little keyboard. when i am just out an about, i leave the little leather cover on and use the on-screen keyboard and stylus.
the only problem i've had is when i went to starbucks for coffee and internet. my coffee got cold from all the other geeks slobbering over my nexio.
this little pda is extremely cool. i am sad that samsung just discontinued it. i wouldn't sell mine for anyting…uh…except for the next nexio samsung releases.
for anyone interested, there is a nexio yahoo.com users group:
so, don't know it 'til you've actually held one of these. best screen i've ever seen on a pda.

Merrill Lynch lured away two advisors from Barclays Capital, where they managed a combined $285 million in assets.
The advisor duo, James Clarke and Philip Weyhe, joined Merrill's Park Avenue office in New York where they will report to Joseph Doonan. Clarke and Weyhe generated over $2.5 million in annual production while at Barclays.
Recruiters say that Barclays advisors have been eyeing an exit as the bank has faced increasing regulatory problems, damaging its reputation. The British bank has also been scaling back its operations overseas, and several top executives have left the company. In the U.S., Barclays has lost advisors to competitors such as RBC and UBS.
"I think any Barclays advisor is probably looking for another home that is less visible and doesn't have the ethical question mark right now," says Courtney Raymond, a recruiter and president of Courtney Raymond Consultants. "In banking there is such a thing as bad publicity."
Clarke is a two-decade veteran of the industry. He started his career with Lehman Brothers, leaving the firm for Barclays in September 2008, according to FINRA records. Weyhe has been in the industry since 1982. He joined Lehman in 2000 and left at the same time as Clarke for Barclays.
Merrill says the two advisors have worked together for more than 10 years, and serve primarily high-net-worth families with $5 million and more in investable assets.

The hotel is an architectural beauty - designed to bring you only the highest comfort and requiescence.
If you stretch out your arm from the terrace you can almost touch the powder-soft sands of some of Cape Town's most exquisite beaches. What's more, not only is The Crystal a few minutes from Cape Town's bar, café and restaurant hotspots, but the City Centre, V&A Waterfront and Table Mountain Cableway are only a short drive away. Alternatively, savour the sights and sounds of the fairest Cape by bicycle - sea on one side and mountain on the other.
Enchanting ocean views and spectacular sunsets are a major delight, especially when viewed from two shimmering swimming pools on an expansive terrace. The luxurious, fully-serviced apartments also offer these phenomenal panoramic views and afford a choice of modern studios, 1-, 2-, or 3-bedroom apartments, or captivating loft apartments.

The most frequently affected breeds are Labrador Retrievers, St. Bernards, and Golden Retrievers. Puppies or
young dogs of some breeds, such as the Bouvier des Flandres, may have congenital laryngeal paralysis, in which puppies are
born with the condition. Trauma, tumors in the throat, and hypothyroidism have also been associated with the development of laryngeal paralysis, but often the cause is unknown.
Laryngeal paralysis affects the larynx, the organ commonly known as the voice box. In addition to producing sound, this organ is also responsible for protecting the tracheal opening. Many small muscles and sections of cartilage in the larynx work to close off the opening to the trachea during swallowing and open it during breathing. Laryngeal paralysis occurs when the nerves controlling movement of the muscles in the larynx do not function normally. This leads to an obstructed airway and limited, inefficient breathing. Unable to breathe normally, a dog with laryngeal paralysis may begin to panic or hyperventilate, which in turn can cause more serious complications. Because of these serious risks associated with laryngeal paralysis, early diagnosis and treatment is critical.
Fortunately, laryngeal paralysis does not come about suddenly. Clinical signs in dogs affected with this condition include a history of loud and noisy breathing, panting or gasping, changes to bark pitch, coughing, and a limited ability to exercise before tiring. In more advanced stages, cyanosis (a bluish tint to the gums which indicates a lack of oxygen) may be visible. If you
believe your dog may be experiencing symptoms associated with laryngeal paralysis, contact your veterinarian. Your veterinarian will examine your dog's larynx to determine whether laryngeal paralysis is present. This generally requires sedation. Additional testing, such as chest and throat radiographs and thyroid and blood testing, will help rule out complications such as aspiration
pneumonia, megaesophogus (dilated esophagus), or tumors.
The most common surgical solution for the condition is the laryngeal tieback procedure. Sutures are used to reposition a part of the cartilage in the larynx to clear the obstructed airway. This surgery will help the dog breathe better, but the breathing often remains noisy. One fairly common and serious risk associated with this procedure is the development of aspiration pneumonia after surgery. Still, 90% of owners feel their dog has improved life quality after surgery. Despite the risks involved, surgery is sometimes a necessity for patients affected by laryngeal paralysis, and a small price to pay for the health of your beloved pet.

Give generously to Peter's Pence
My dear friends in Christ,
June 29 is the feast of Saints Peter and Paul. These two great missionaries are the patrons of the Church of Rome, and so also of the whole Roman Catholic Church throughout the world. Our Holy Father, Benedict XVI, as successor of St. Peter, the first Pope, continues to lead the Church in the mission of our Savior, proclaiming His peace and grace where it is most needed in this life.
In many places, the Church struggles to be the visible sign of Christ's peace: in poor dioceses where many depend on the Church for social and pastoral support; in regions where Catholics are persecuted and must be helped discreetly; in nations overloaded with refugees or victims of war and natural disasters. Here in the Diocese of Sioux City, we too have experienced the impact of economic recession, tornados and floods, and the threat of unjust persecution. We cling to the peace of Christ amidst these trials as the only true stability in this life.
The Peter's Pence Collection provides others with the means to a peace they might not otherwise know. The collection gives us the opportunity, by our solidarity in prayer and in generosity, to extend a sign of peace to the body of Christ around the world. Our prayers and gifts will help the Holy Father support victims of disaster, war, and oppression and others in urgent need of assistance. Pope Benedict uses the Peter's Pence Collection to strengthen dioceses, religious orders, and struggling faithful communities when they need it most.
Praying that your faith and hope may always grow in union with the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ, who loves each soul indescribably, I am
Your brother in Christ,
Most Reverend Walker Nickless

Washington Nationals superstar Bryce Harper had to leave the game in the fifth inning after a nasty collision Monday night with the right field scoreboard at Dodger Stadium.
Trying to flag a ball hit by Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis, Harper crashed into the scoreboard and staggered to the ground. He had blood over his neck as he eventually walked off the field under his own power. He was down for a considerable amount of time near the warning track.
Dodgers announcer Vin Scully may have described it best when he, as always, perfectly said, "Harper just kept going back and the next thing you know, the scoreboard hit him."
It is unknown what Harper's condition is at the time of this writing.
And Bryce Harper was nearly beheaded tonight (via @nevrfolow) twitter.com/Nevrfolow/stat…

Looking Back on SA
Tonsley Park
The Tonsley Park car assembly plant was built by Chrysler Australia in 1963, and began local production of the AP5 Valiant the following year.
For the next 45 years the plant was a cornerstone of South Australian industry, employing thousands of staff on the production line and in administration. (including providing ready employment for the many new migrants to SA, especially in the 1960's and 1970's).
In 1981 the plant was sold to Mitsubishi Motors, who continued to build vehicles locally until the plant closed in 2008.
The site is now being redeveloped as a hub for education, technology, manufacturing, commercial, retail and housing

Sunshine on My Mind by Amamak Photography
Artist Info
- Based in Canada
- View Amamak Photography's flickr stream
- Purchase prints from their Etsy shop
Photographer Michelle Karpman's and model/photoshopper Aviva Artzy's worlds collided to create the awesomeness that is Amamak Photography, a joint effort in which the pair have created a series of the dreamiest of double exposures.
Double exposure photography to me is akin to seeing two worlds collide. It's kind of like a peek into two dimensions and before I start spouting ideas about quantum physics, which I know very little about, let's enjoy a fun interview with the talented duo.
Share a little bit about each of yourselves.
Michelle: I'm from Montreal, Quebec, and I take pictures for fun. I first got into photography when I won a photo competition in high school and thought I was really cool and talented and then slowly accumulated a small army's worth of cameras over the past few years. My room is now more reminiscent of a camera museum than a livable space and my free time, once spent doing ordinary things, — procrastinating, having friends — now consists of shooting, scanning and talking about myself in interviews.
Aviva: I, too, hail from Montreal! I grew up in a family almost entirely composed of artists and photographers, so I've always been interested in drawing or photoshopping or futzing with something artistic, somehow. Through Michelle I pretend to be good at photography, too.
How would you describe your artistic styles?
Michelle: While I've often heard of the many merits of developing a distinct style, I've never really actively considered fostering one of my own. More than an artistic style I think I have an artistic genre; I like my pictures to be ethereal and light-stricken and sweet. I don't edit them to have a given, consistent feel or angle them to get a certain sentiment, I just take them so that they're appealing.
Aviva: Style? I think my/our style is sort of "If it works, it works!"
Share a little bit about your collaboration, Amamak Photography, and also about your double exposure mixed project series.
Michelle: Aviva and I have been friends for about six years, before which we were archenemies. I used to bug her very consistently (and annoyingly!) to be my friend and she used to be mean and evil and generally uninterested in me which somehow organically evolved into us being mean and evil (and annoying!) together. Sometime during that period I got my first medium format camera and she became my pseudo-muse-best-friend-partner-in-crime/whine. And thus Amamak was born! I think all photographer-friendships get to a point where it's either take pictures of each other in states of undress or move on.
Then some years later Aviva started combining our pictures in Photoshop and, well, I'll just let her handle this part solo because I secretly already read what she wrote and it pretty eloquently sums up this whole Mixed Project venture.
Aviva: Our 'collaboration' (which some might just call a friendship?) basically stems from our mutual love of portrait photography, beautiful places, and combining the two. We're two girls who like to take pictures together and have fun while we're at it, without putting too much pressure on the whole thing. You could pretty well say the same of the mixed project, which started as an accident, which we quite liked, so we went with it! We created a set of double exposures that were, quite literally, combinations of portraits and beautiful nature shots. In portrait photography in general, and particularly our own, there's a lot of focus on the model, usually associated with a sense of intimacy. With this project, it's less about a photo of my face and more about a really magical combination of person and nature, where I'm more of an aesthetic prop than the real focus. If anything, the emphasis is on how the two elements, sometimes in complete opposition and other times quite complementary to each other, look when combined. Also we just like them because they turn out pretty!
Describe your process of creating the double exposure.
Michelle: WELL, I actually do all of the work the whole thing was my idea and since I'm so proficient, artistic and naturally skilled with Photoshop I had absolutely no problem bringing the ideas which I already had and did not randomly stumble upon to life on my computer screen. Aviva will explain the details of my skill which I do have and understand but wish not to share myself.
But really my job chiefly ends after the whole buying film, taking pretty pictures, getting them processed and scanning adventure.
Aviva: This is actually my domain! (Michelle stop trying to steal my thunder not cool)
As I mentioned earlier, this project started completely accidentally. I'd dragged a photo (nature- themed) on top of another photo (me-themed) and hit 'screen' and it just sort of … worked. I'd like to say it was a pretty special moment but I don't actually remember it at all. I just saw something I liked and decided I must recreate it. So I did! That's about as conceptual as it gets. The actual 'creation' of a double exposure in Photoshop is pretty simple stuff, there's no secret we're hiding on that front. You open two photos, drag one on top of the other and change the 'top' layer's mode to 'screen'. Sometimes I make other minor adjustments, possibly insignificant details to suit my fancy on a case-by-case basis. About 90% of the "process" really comes down to choosing which shots to superimpose, and there's a lot of trial and error involved until we get something that we really love.
So far, which of the installments in your mixed project is your favorite?
Michelle: My definite favourite is Fading. Just love the silverness and colour scheme as a whole.
Aviva: Yes, I concur. I also have love for pretty much all of them, partially due to aesthetic pleasure and probably partially due to familiarity.
Can we expect to see more in the mixed project series?
Michelle: I can't possibly see why not! They're easy enough to make and just require the right combinations of nature and Aviva-human. Also they're lovely.
Aviva: Yes! We've only posted a handful online, but we've got many more we're saving up. Michelle knows nothing.

Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy Laboratory
Scanning Electron Microscopy is an integral part of many aspects of research in geology, biology, chemistry, engineering, physics and polymer sciences. Our facility supports a FEI (formerly Philips) Quanta 200 Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope and EDS attachment. This is an interdisciplinary facility, servicing the entire University of Akron community and the surrounding northeastern Ohio region.
ESEM affords the user the ability to image wet, oily, dirty, uncoated specimens in their natural state, without the need for a high vacuum and electrical conductivity required by a conventional SEM. ESEM technologies allow the sample to be exposed to a range of pressures, temperatures and gas compositions. The tolerance of gases at pressures above 4.6 Torr allows saturated vapor pressures to be maintained at temperatures above freezing, thus allowing the presence of liquid water and precluding the need to dry specimens before imaging them. An ESEM also allows the environment to be altered within the sample chamber, enabling the ESEM to serve as an experimental chamber, allowing direct visualization of dynamic processes. An ESEM has the high resolution capability to obtain high quality images of uncoated, hydrated samples in a low-vacuum environment, opening a vast array of research opportunities, extending the capabilities of electron imaging to new frontiers.
Our facility is available to researchers from the Northeast Ohio area. If you have a question about our ESEM and whether it will fulfill your imaging and analytical needs, please feel free to contact us. We will be happy to answer any questions that you might have. This lab was created with the support of NSF EAR Grant 0320898.
