Introducing Kreg Jig® K5
Take a virtual spin on the all new Kreg Jig® K5.

Customer Survey
We'd love to hear your feedback!.

Standard Deck vs. Kreg Deck
Get the deck you want, without any unsightly exposed nails or screws. The Deck Jig's specialized self tapping screws are driven at a precise angle into the edge of your deck boards so they stay hidden from view. Where seasonal changes might force traditional fasteners out of place with time, Kreg screws stay protected safely below the surface, for a longer-lasting deck. By coupling the Kreg Deck Jig™ with composite decking, you'll get a deck free of cracks, splinters, and "pop-out" fasteners.
Drill. Drive. Done!
Securing a deck board with the Kreg Deck Jig™ takes only 3 simple steps. First you drill holes into the edge of your deck board using the specialized stepped bit, guided by the jig's hardened steel drill guides. Next, you drive the specialized self-tapping deck screws through the same drill guides and into the joist as the depth collar precisely controls the depth. That's it, you're done! You've just created an incredibly strong and sturdy joint with no visible fastener.
Works with a wide variety of decking materials.
For the best results, we recommend composite deck boards which prevent shrinking/swelling/splitting. Select a solid composite material with no machined grooves. Also works great with native softwoods such as Redwood and Cedar, along with certain Tropical Hardwoods like Ipe, Red Balau, and Ironwood.
Deck Screws
Kreg Deck Screws were designed specifically for use with the Kreg Deck Jig™, although they can also be used as simple face-screws for a variety of outdoor projects. All Kreg Deck screws feature a KTX #1 Square Drive to reduce cam-out, a flat-bottom head which resists splitting, and a self-tapping tip which drills its own hole as it's driven.

Count me among those people who can't sleep on planes, making me dread a transatlantic flight from the U.S. to Europe. It's not the going, it's the arriving—trying to get through that first day with fuzz for brains. Not a day I want to jump into my business suit and run off to my meeting. But now I've got the cure for the jet lag blues, and your next VIP group headed to Frankfurt, Germany, can have it, too.
It's called an anti-jet-lag massage, and I was treated to one as a guest at the Villa Kennedy, an idyllic boutique property in the Sachsenhausen residential area of Frankfurt, with its fashionable bars and restaurants. It's away from the bustle of the city, yet in minutes one can be in the largest financial district in Continental Europe.
Villa Kennedy is part of the Rocco Forte collection of hotels, located just off the south bank of the Main River, within about 15 minutes of the airport. What gives the 163-property its charm is the wonderful architecture of a chic boutique hotel built around a 1904 private home, called the Villa Speyer (once owned by a local banking family), with three newly constructed wings that blend perfectly together around a gorgeous central courtyard that's an ideal setting for group events in nice weather. There are nine meeting rooms in total, the largest of which can accommodate up to 260 theater-style. The Presidential Suite, one of the largest in Europe, is spectacular in a minimalist kind of way. The hotel, designed by Martin Bruznidski under the guidance of Olga Polizzi, Rocco Forte Hotels' director of design, opened in 2006.
Ahh, but back to my anti-jet-lag treatment. It took place in the 10,000-plus-square-foot Villa Spa, which includes an indoor pool, fitness room, sauna, steambath, and eight treatment rooms. Just off the pool area is an outdoor lounging space and garden, again offering a tranquil respite right in the middle of a major metropolis. After 80 minutes with Martina, my masseuse, I felt relaxed but revived, ready to face my very busy upcoming week at IMEX (the annual meeting industry trade show that next year will take place May 22–24, in Frankfurt).
And why, I asked, is the hotel called the Villa Kennedy? It's located on Kennedyallee, a street traveled by the late U.S. president in 1963, during the same visit he made his famous "Ich bin ein Berliner" speech in West Berlin, The street was renamed after he was assassinated. Today the hotel's bar is named for JFK.

Another breeze for Weaver
By Rick Sheek
Josey Weaver's second trip to the Covered Bridge 5K was even better.
The rising Western Carolina senior runner successfully defended his title on Saturday morning, covering the 3.1-mile course in 15:43.96. That bettered his effort of a year ago by 11 seconds.
"The course is still great," Weaver, 21, said. "It was a little warmer out there this year, but it was still a good race. It looked like they had a couple of more elite runners come out, at the starting line I saw — but overall a real good race."
Gray's Brinson Milhorn, 30, crossed second in 16:41.03.
"I've run with him before, and he's always had the upper advantage by where he's been running in college," Milhorn said. "He's a very nice man, and I just worked hard. I've just got to keep working hard, and get up there."
Weaver's margin of victory wasn't as large this summer, but clocking a sub-five minute first mile certainly helped.
"I was out by myself again," Weaver said. "I saw some guys about the mile and a half mark, probably, 50-75 yards back. I don't know if they tried to go out or not, but I went through the first mile in like the 4:58 range.
"Which I was OK with that. I was hoping to be a little bit quicker, but I tried to make up some the last mile. It was definitely a challenge, especially the first race back It was a good tune-up for sure."
Aside from his upcoming road race schedule, which includes a major event in the Asheville area which features traveling money ringers, Weaver is also focused on the college ranks this fall as the Catamounts' No. 1 racer and lone senior in the Southern Conference.
"That makes you feel better, especially when last year at this time is when I got hurt and couldn't run for two months," Weaver said. "At least I know I'm ahead of where I was, and I've got two months to work with. Hopefully we'll stay healthy, and training will stay up to par."
Milhorn just recorded a personal half-marathon record (1:12) a week ago, and noticed he was a step slow.
"I still ran good," Milhorn said. "I'm happy to be here. The Covered Bridge is nice.
"I came out here to run good. My legs are worn down a little bit. It kind of took a lot out of me.
"It kind of burned me out, on this quick, faster race. You had to be ready for it, but 16:41 — I'm pretty happy with it."
Milhorn broke the tape at a 5K in Bristol last month.
"I went faster today than I did then," Milhorn said. "I'm improving, and just got to get somebody to chase and go after. I'll get there.
"It's just you've got to concentrate on one thing. I like to be well-rounded, do a little bit of both. People who just do 5Ks are about a minute faster. I enjoy running, fell in love with it when I was at Boone (1998 state cross country champions), and it's just a good thing to do."
Weaver's mother is from Hampton.
"The big thing I'm doing with training, though, I think that's keeping me a lot more healthy is actually I'm down here every weekend," Weaver said. "I go to the Watauga Lake and get on a paddle board, and then just work on my core. That's really the key as far as running fast.
"A lot of people think you just put miles in, but if you don't have a strong core your body can't support anything. I really feel like that has helped my training, as far as the being healthy aspect. Hopefully I can find something towards Western and keep that going, maybe get my coach and team to jump on that a little bit."
The women's winner was Ashley Dulgar, 25, of Piney Flats in 21:08.
"I loved it," Dulgar said. "I hadn't really been training for it, but I heard it was a good one. It was nice and quiet, and I had a great time."
She defeated road partner Brittany Levenbarger (21:14), also 25. A year ago, Elaine Hitch prevailed in 21:26.
"Brittany and I worked together for most of it, and we just pushed each other to the end," Dulgar said. "We train together, and that helps when you need someone to work with."
Dulgar is a marathon runner, finishing her last 26.2-mile un in April (3:43) in Nashville.
"I mostly train for marathons, but I like to do 5Ks," Dulgar said. "It wasn't my PR, but I was happy for it — because I haven't ran a 5K in over a year."

Features include:
- Superuser access prompt
- Superuser access logging

The Pro version additionally offers:

- Per-app logging configuration
- Per-app user override
- Grant/deny root to an app for a set amount of time
- PIN protection
- Per-app PIN protection
- Adjust auto-deny countdown
The discussion and support thread can be found on XDA-Developers here:
This is meant to replace Superuser (if installed), you use either one or the other. You cannot combine them. Statements that this breaks Superuser are therefore completely nonsensical.
Superuser access management runs through a so called "su binary". There can be only one of these at a time. So if you install SuperSU, your previous superuser access management solution will no longer operate. So if you want to switch back: (1) Open that application, and search for an option for it to install/update/replace the "su binary". (2) Confirm root-using apps are using the superuser solution you want. (3) Uninstall SuperSU.
Want to help translate SuperSU ? See http://www.getlocalization.com/supersu/ !
Excellent The UI is as simplistic as it could be, yet fully functional and comprehensible for first time users. Moreover, the Ask Again feature comes in pretty damned handy sometimes. Lastly, the Pro features are picked perfectly for as far as I can tell. You don't NEED them to get a complete experience, but to some they are wished for. I don't see a lot of developers do just that. so, yeah, kudos to that.
PLEASE FIX IT It still not work. Fix it please
Excellent Superuser app I have used it on my HTC EVO 4G LTE and it does what it is supposed to do. I got into a state were the binaries wouldn't update, but it looks like that is an HTC issue as the developer seems to specifically point out an HTC difference in the update UI. A re-rooting got me back on track
The best Best superuser app, very reliable. And for all the people giving this app 1* because it can't update or install the su binary or you still don't have root after installing this from the play store : you show so little knowledge of your device that you shouldn't even consider rooting.
Micromax A40 What should i do. When i open the app it says there is no su binary installed and super su cannot install it. This is your problem. What does it mean plz help or fix it. I didnt found su binary in google store.
'There is no super su binary installed and super su cannot install it' Its the latest version installed and also tried to flash the zip from chain fire's official download site. Same problem
What's New
- Fix FC for latest Note2 and S5 firmwares
- Add --mount-master option to su binary
- Fix for am crash (no GUI popups) when daemonsu started from an exceptionally early init.d
- Improved terminal support (changing dimensions)
- Remove daemonsu STDOUT/STDERR noise
- Cleaned custom process names
- Updated language files
- New -cn/--context parameter for su binary (devs: see How-To SU update)
- Fixed reading dynamic properties on 4.4 (update ASAP if 4.4 user)
Grant and manage Superuser rights for your phone.
Permissions requested are for:
This app requires that you already have root, or a custom recovery image to work.
Note: App and binary will have different versions. The app is updated more often than the binary is.
This app cannot be uninstalled if it was installed with your ROM or root. If there is no uninstall option, it's because you placed it in /system/app, not me. It is impossible for an app to be installed in /system/app by the Play store. In fact, the entire /system partition is read only at runtime. The only way for an app to be placed in /system/app is via a rooting process (which usually installs Superuser), or by remounting the system partition as read/write and manually putting it there.
Permissions requested are for:
Internet - updating the binary
External storage - backup/restore for elite users
NFC - creating an allow tag for elite users
Boot completed - fix database on boot
Support request emails that simply say "Doesn't work" or something to that effect are automatically deleted by our stupidity filter and will not be answered.

Why another Superuser?
* Superuser should be open source. It's the gateway to root on your device. It must be open for independent security analysis. Obscurity (closed source) is not security.
* Superuser should be NDK buildable. No internal Android references.
* Superuser should also be AOSP buildable for those that want to embed it in their ROM.
* Superuser should also be AOSP embeddable, meaning a ROM can easily embed it into their Settings app.
* Maintenance and updates on both the market and source repositories should be timely.
* If something goes wrong, I can fix it.
* Handle multiuser (4.2+) properly
* Handle concurrent su requests properly

Root Checker
This application, Root Checker (Basic), will allow the user to confirm they have proper root ( superuser ) access configured and operational.
Advanced Features, improved UI and more detailed results are in the Pro version, Root Checker Pro.
Please don't leave negative feedback about a concern, bug or issue! Instead, please email me, tweet me, contact me on my web site - http://joeykrim.com/contact, IRC, or on the forums (XDA, RootzWiki, SDX, etc.) with your feedback, suggestions and comments!
*Feel free to email me with any questions. I always reply!*
To learn more about root, please see my free educational application, All About Root
Advanced Features, improved UI and more detailed results are in the Pro version, Root Checker Pro.
The goal of this application is to provide even the newest Android user with a simple method to check their device for root (administrator/superuser) access.
This is a very simple application to notify the user whether or not they have properly setup root access.
This application will test the device for root access using a very simple, quick and reliable method. The su binary is the most common binary used on Android devices to grant and manage root access. Root Checker will check and verify that the su binary is located in a standard location on the device. Root Checker will also confirm the proper permissions and flags on the su binary in addition to testing that access is granted by the su binary.
Many times users experience issues along the path of installing, configuring and gaining root access. For some users the process can seem complex while for others the process can seem simple. Regardless of the user's technical skill set, Root Checker, will quickly and correctly verify whether or not root access is 100% functioning. The process of confirming root access is sometimes known by other terms such as, gaining superuser access or gaining administrator access. Root Checker covers all these terms as they relate to one core function, being able to execute commands with root access.
If the Superuser or SuperSU applications are installed and working properly, these applications will prompt the user to accept or deny the root access request from Root Checker. Accepting the request will allow Root Checker to check for root access. Denying the request will result in Root Checker reporting no root access.
Gaining root access varies based on manufacturer, model, and carrier. If you're searching for root access to your device, this application will not help you. If you're interested in rooting your device, please use http://www.google.com to find the appropriate rooting support areas for your specific device. Other popular web sites which provide rooting guides are http://forum.xda-developers.com and http://forum.sdx-developers.com.
Please don't leave negative feedback about a concern, bug or issue! Instead, please email me, tweet me, contact me on my web site - http://joeykrim.com/contact, IRC, or on the forums (XDA, RootzWiki, SDX, etc.) with your feedback, suggestions and comments!
I do my best to assist as many people as possible and appreciate all the support that has made this application successful! Thank you!

ROM Manager
ROM Manager is THE MUST HAVE APP for any Android root user. (Over 10 million downloads and counting!)
* Flash your recovery to the latest and greatest ClockworkMod recovery.
Premium Version:
Why does ROM Manager ask for account permissions?
ClockworkMod Touch Recovery:
* Flash your recovery to the latest and greatest ClockworkMod recovery.
* Manage your ROMs via a handy UI.
* Organize and perform backups and restores from within Android!
* Install ROMs from your SD card.
* Install your favorite ROMs over the air!
Premium Version:
* Incremental update zips (save your data plan!)
* Premium ROMs
* Receive notifications for when your ROM is updated!
* Automatic backups
* Install Queue
* Web Connect
* Backup Download Server lets you easily transfer backups as flashable zips to your computer.
Do you prefer using only recovery manually? Check out the Touch Recovery in app purchase, for the most advanced recovery available!
Why does ROM Manager ask for account permissions?
Web Connect only needs to access your Google account to connect it to your google account. It can't access any private data or passwords.
ClockworkMod Touch Recovery:
ClockworkMod Touch recovery (and recovery) is work that needs to put in for every new device that is released by a manufacturer.
If work on ROM Manager ceased completely, all the premium features would continue working without issue. However, new recoveries do not port and build themselves. Without ClockworkMod Touch being a per device purchase, there is no way to recoup recurring server costs and labor. Keeping ROM Manager free and operational costs tens of thousands of dollars a year, and that does not include engineering costs.
Your support is appreciated.
Droid users: Stuck at the "M" logo? Flash an alternate recovery and flash back to ClockworkMod.
HTC Users: Flash recovery not working? Try fastbooting a recovery on.
Droid X/2/Pro Users: You must run the Bootstrap application first to use ROM Manager.
Samsung users: You must flash a Clockwork compatible kernel first (see XDA forums)

Root App Delete (help Root)
RootAppDelete is the best tool For rooted Android users.
I have provided a good app for all users and will continue making improvments.
It helps you freeze or uninstall system apps inside phone
It's special:
* tiny,fast,especially fast for old phones with low memory
* "modify" MODE, change system apps before uninstalling
* can "Disable" backgroud system service, such as "google backgroud transport" and "contact sync service"
Explanation of permissions:
we might use lib file, which provided by AD company.
But we only use this file to show [hot apps],
which Never cost any resource untill you click and see recommended apps.
so please don't be bothered by warnnings from Virus Protecter
[hot app] does not bother you at all, if you ignore it。
"read phone state" and "internet" permissions are used to stat how many users are using my app, and when FC happens, I can get error report.

it's just used to improve my app. If you still can't accept, uninstall.
compared to other uninstall tools in android market, it is much more better
for example, the app " uninstaller " is a very popular uninstall app in google play, it's the smallest uninstall tool, simple and easy. But uninstall does NOT support rooted phones. Even you have root permission, you can NOT modify system apps inside your phone, which is very annoying.
the app " app remover ", is another similar uninstall tool in google play, but app remover neither supports rooted phones.
the app " system app remover ", is also a famous uninstall tool , and it does support rooted phones. But system app remover never give you any warnning before you uninstall a system app, which might be kernel file of your android phone. so it's much safer to use " root app delete " than "system app remover " in a rooted phone, especially for those new android users, who don't quite understand the danger of uninstalling system apps with root permission.
compared to many other similar uninstall tools, you will find how useful and how safe this App is.
Guys, enjoy!
superuser X [L]
superuser X Legacy
*** Free and Adfree
This app has been superseded by superuser X. Left for historical purposes or for older devices.
superuser X su binary v0.99.1 Legacy backported for legacy devices | Code Name: Origin
Root Powers without a fuss - the traditional unix way
This app installs a custom unix/linux like su binary which grants root powers to all apps by default without any fuss and any confirmation. This app is meant for developers and powerusers who develop rooted apps or use trusted rooted apps. The 'root to all apps' behaviour may be considered 'insecure' by some, if you feel more secure with confirmations, then this app may not be for you.
*** Free and Adfree
*** Initially Root required
This app has been superseded by superuser X. Left for historical purposes or for older devices.
If you have the habit of randomly installing rooted apps from the net, then this app may also not be for you. (The theory that confirmations help laymen prevent disasters is flawed - you can still press allow to a untrusted root app and get your files deleted)
The superuser X su Legacy binary essentially cuts off the middle man, i.e. the slow grant dialogues and the dependency on the parent superuser app. This also means that you will have root powers even if the superuser app or installer gets corrupted or uninstalled.
This is the Lamborghini among superusers!
Special Attention
Once the binary is installed, you can uninstall the app. For some this may be disappointing but the plus side is you can save space and have one app less in the launcher! The traditional su is a command line application, it does not need this fancy UI to run your commands! You can keep the installer if you like.
Compatibility and Requirements
Requires a rooted device. A Complete BusyBox installation is recommended for rooted apps.
Supports only Android on ARM.
Install Superuser by ChainsDD / SuperSU by Chainfire / Superuser by ClockworkMod and allow them to install their own su binary. Once that is done, just unistall superuser X the usual way.
Binary output (su -i)
superuser X su binary v0.99.1 Legacy backported for legacy devices | Code Name: Origin
(Made with love for Android ARM - BitCubate Apps)
For support, contact Robert Nediyakalaparambil ( email@example.com ) or visit bitcubate.com
Install binary:
Just press the install button.
Run a simple command:
su -c command
su -c ls
Run a command with options or multiple commands:
su -c 'command option'
su -c 'command1 option1 ; command2 option2 ; command3'
su -c 'ls -l'
su -c 'mount -o remount rw /system/ ; mv /system/xbin/busybox /system/bin/'
Version information:
su -i
This app does not root your phone - it is against Google Play TOS for apps to root a phone.
Contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com for support.
Remember with great power comes great responsibility!
About su
The su command, also referred to as substitute user, super user, or switch user, allows a computer operator to change the current user account associated with the running virtual console. By default, and without any other command line argument, this will elevate the current user to the superuser of the local system. --Wikipedia
Root Checker Pro
Root Checker Pro is a free tool to check if your phone has root access after your attempt at rooting your phone.
This information is generally most helpful in diagnosing issues with root access.
Root and Build Information:
. Whether the app has root access/ root admin access.
. Whether toolbox/busybox is installed.
. Device Model and Manufacturer.
. Android version.
What is Rooting?
Why is it called Rooting?
The goal of this application is to provide even the newest Android user with a simple method to check their device for root (administrator/superuser) access.
This information is generally most helpful in diagnosing issues with root access.
Root and Build Information:
. Whether the app has root access/ root admin access.
. Whether toolbox/busybox is installed.
. Device Model and Manufacturer.
. Android version.
What is Rooting?
"Rooting" your device means obtaining "superuser" rights and permissions to your Android's software. With these elevated user privileges, you gain the ability to load custom software (ROM's), install custom themes, increase performance, increase battery life, and the ability to install software that would otherwise cost extra money (ex: WiFi tethering). Rooting is essentially "hacking" your Android device. In the iPhone world, this would be the equivalent to "Jailbreaking" your phone.
Why is it called Rooting?
The term "root" comes from the Unix/Linux world and is used to describe a user who has "superuser" rights or permissions to all the files and programs in the software OS (Operating System). The root user, because they have "superuser" privileges, can essentially change or modify any of the software code on the device. You see, your phone manufacturer/carrier only gives you "guest" privileges when you purchase your device. They do this for good reason… they don't want you getting into certain parts of the software on your phone and screwing it up beyond repair. It makes it much easier for them to manage and update the devices if they lock it all down. This way, all the users are running the same unmodified version of the phone's software. This makes it much easier for them to support the devices. But, for the tech-savvy crowd, only having "guest" privileges on your device is pretty lame and it locks down a lot of potentially useful features.
What is BusyBox ?
When a phone is rooted, one of the most common things to do after rooting is the installation of the BusyBox binary, prior to running any applications that require root privileges.
The goal of this application is to provide even the newest Android user with a simple method to check their device for root (administrator/superuser) access.
This is a very simple application to notify the user whether or not they have properly setup root access.
This application will test the device for root access using a very simple, quick and reliable method to check for root access. The su binary is the most common binary used on Android devices to grant root access. This application will check and verify the su binary is located in a standard location on the device. This application will also confirms the proper permissions and flags on the su binary in addition to testing the access granted by the su binary.
Many times users experience issues along the route of installing, configuring and gaining root access. The process can seem complex to some and easy to others. Regardless of the user's technical skill set, Root Checker, will quickly and correctly verify whether or not root access is 100% functioning. The process of confirming root access or verifying root access is sometimes known by other terms such as gaining superuser access or gaining administrator access. Root Checker covers all these terms as they relate to one core function, being able to execute commands with root access.
We have tried our best to simplify the process of verification of root access or superuser access.
Best of Luck in confirming the root access or checking the root access of your phone

[root] Chainfire3D
Take control over your GPU!
Be sure to check the thread on XDA for available plugins !
Chainfire3D has been tested on:
Chainfire3D is an intermediary OpenGL driver. What does that mean? It means that Chainfire3D sits between your apps and the graphics drivers, and can intercept and/or change commands between the two. It has some built-in functions, and can be further extended with plugins to provide extra functionality.
!! For Froyo and Gingerbread ONLY. NOT COMPATIBLE with Honeycomb/Ice Cream Sandwich/Jelly Bean !!
!! Chainfire3D is for 1ghz+ devices only !!
!! ROOT is required for this program, as well as a writable /system partition. S-OFF is also required on HTC devices !!
Features include reducing texture size and quality to reduce memory use and potentially increase game performance, as well as increasing memory use potentially increase performance.
If you also install the (experimental) EGL driver, AND your GPU supports it, AND you have the Pro version, you can enable 4xMSAA or 16xMSAA on a per-app bases. This can drastically improve image quality!
Be sure to check the thread on XDA for available plugins !
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087427 )
Chainfire3D has been tested on:
- Samsung Galaxy S
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7"
- Samsung Galaxy S II
- Samsung Galaxy Note
- Samsung Epic 4G
- Motorola Atrix 4G
- Motorola Droid 2
- LG Optimus 2X
- Google Nexus S
Many users are running Chainfire3D on devices not listed here - it's likely to work on all modern devices. So far nobody has reported a failed install, so that's good. Doesn't mean problems can't happen.
!! There is some risk involved installing the driver. Your device may not boot. If you have CWM, it would be prudent to create a backup before installing !!
[root] Triangle Away
Many Samsung devices store a flash counter that keeps track of how many times you have flashed *custom* firmwares to your device. On some devices, a yellow triangle or other sort of visual warning is also displayed during boot if you are running a *custom* firmware. TriangleAway was built to disable the triangle (if a visual warning is present) and reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0. This app requires root !
SG Note:
SG Note 2:
SG Note 3 (4.4+):
SG Note 8.0":
SG Note 10.1":
SG Tab 2:
You can find out the current status of your flash counter and firmware state (custom or official) by booting into "download mode" on most devices. The usual way of getting into "download mode" is by first turning off your device, then turning it on by pressing and holding VolDown+(Home)+Power. Alternatively, the "adb reboot download" command also often works.
When you run TriangleAway, if your device and firmware are supported, it will show you the detected state of the binary (custom or official) and flash counter value, and the option to "Reset flash counter". Please confirm that the information shown is correct before resetting the values.
On a number of devices, TriangleAway can work, but your firmware may not be supported directly. In that case, the app will tell you it needs to reboot into a special boot mode, which will be happen if you select "Reset flash counter". The device will reboot into a special mode which will allow you to review the current status and reset the binary and flash counter values (or abort and do nothing). On some devices this will actually trigger the counter to 1 if its 0 - so if you're "just checking", do that in download mode!
( and by brick I mean brick - only a board replacement or a JTAG unit will be able to save you, don't mess with boot(loader) stuff unless you *really* mean it! )
Note#1: using Triangle Away may unmount your SD card. Reboot or manually remount it from Android settings.
Note#2: on new devices status can only be reset on stock firmwares!

** Various models are supported depending on firmware, but only the exact models listed are supported regardless of firmware version.
Whether or not Triangle Away works may depend on your kernel, try flashing a different one if it doesn't work.
Please also note that some devices set the counter to 1 at every boot if you are running a custom kernel or recovery. On these devices, Triangle Away may always display 1 - make sure to check the counter in actual download mode.

Flashing with Mobile ODIN does NOT increase your custom kernel flash counter or make the yellow warning triangle appear.
For discussion and support: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
Flashing with Mobile ODIN is easy. You start by starting the app and the app will check your system has everything it needs to continue (like root). It may need to download an additional package, so it is advised you have Wi-Fi available.
Now you should see the main Mobile ODIN screen. It will list a set of partitions. Clicking a partition will allow you to select a file from your SD card to flash to that partition. Do not worry about selecting the wrong file - Mobile ODIN will not let you. Separate files (named after the partition) as well as .tar and .tar.md5 files are supported.
From the desktop ODIN you may be used to "PDA", "PHONE", and "CSC" buttons. All three of these buttons have been replaced by the "Open file ..." button. This button will open the file you select from the SD card, and find all the partitions it can flash inside that file. So if you select a .tar file containing kernel and modem, the Kernel and Modem partitions will be set up to use that .tar file for flashing.
Now that we have selected what we want to flash, if you have the Pro version you can proceed to the EverRoot section. The EverRoot options allows you to root your firmware while it is being flashed. Never again will you be without root! Select here which apps you want to inject in the firmware that is being flashed.
Now that we are all done selecting partitions and configuring EverRoot, we continue to "Flash firmware". Mobile ODIN will gather all the information it needs and perform the flash. Before starting, however, it will check that your battery level is over 50%, and if applicable offer to verify MD5 checksums on the files you have selected to flash. If all is well, it will reboot into recovery mode, and flash the firmware you have selected.
[root] StickMount
Automatically mount and dismount USB sticks on various devices like the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. The Nexus 4 is not supported - this is an issue with the device, not with StickMount !
You can find the needed files here:
Various Nexus and "stock Android" devices do not automatically "mount" mass storage devices (such as USB sticks). StickMount has been made to solve this problem, and give you access to the files on your USB connected storage from all your apps.
StickMount is known to work on many devices, but is built *only* with *Nexus* devices in mind.
Once StickMount is installed and you connect a USB stick with a "USB host / OTG cable", the device will show you a popup if you want to open StickMount. It is advised to tell the device that you want to do this by default.
If you have just installed StickMount and you already had a USB stick connected, you must manually launch the program, or disconnect/reconnect the USB stick for StickMount to start working.
Mass storage devices are mounted to "/sdcard/usbStorage/xxxx/".
----- (Pro) Kill apps preventing unmount -----
Sometimes an app has a file in use located on the USB device, and won't let go of it. This can prevent StickMount from unmounting the USB device. It will seem like the device stays connected (this is harmless). StickMount Pro provides an option that attempts to kill (terminate) all the apps that are preventing the unmount from succeeding.
----- (Pro) Media scan -----
StickMount Pro supports triggering the media scanner on each (un)mount action. This will automatically make the files on your USB device available in apps like Gallery and Music. Please note that the media scanner is not a visible process on all Android devices - it might actually work silently in the background without any visual cues. It may take a minute for your files to show up, so don't panic if they don't show immediately.
Even if you have this option enabled, you can prevent folders from being scanned by placing an empty file called ".nomedia" in that folder. If you put it in the root of the USB device, the entire device will not be scanned.
----- (Pro) Mount as partition label -----
Instead of using the block device name for the partition, use the partition label as mount name, falling back to uuid or block device name if the label is unavailable.
----- (Pro) Create symbolic links -----
Create symbolic links in /mnt and /storage to the actual mounts in /sdcard/usbStorage/
----- Filesystem support -----
The filesystems supported depends on your device firmware. On most devices, at least vfat/fat/fat32 and ext2/3/4 are supported. On the latest Android versions, ntfs is also supported in read-only mode. Some devices also support exfat out the box, but most do not.
StickMount can utilize the "ntfs-3g" and "mount.exfat-fuse" binaries to add support for ntfs (untested) and exfat, but these are not included. If you place the "ntfs-3g" or "mount.exfat-fuse" files in the root of your internal storage ( /sdcard ), StickMount will automatically use them.
You can find the needed files here:
ntfs-3g: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1145436&stc=1&d=1340293802
mount.exfat-fuse: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=806200&d=1323109372
----- Troubleshooting -----
For some users, the app appears not to work, while in fact it is the device itself or the cable not working. One OTG cable is not the other OTG cable. If you have a USB stick with a light on it, it should light up when you connect it to the Galaxy Nexus using your OTG cable. If it does not, either your cable or your Nexus is faulty. 99 out of 100 times it is going to be your cable. That the cable works fine with another device does not mean anything! Cables known to work on a one devices may not work on another device.
SD card unmounting: If your SD card unmounts when unmounting a USB device, you have a bug in your kernel. This is *not* a bug in StickMount !

500 Firepaper
500 Firepaper provides a live wallpaper and a daydream showing you the latest images from 500px throughout the day.
Why is there no save feature ?
Three finger tap to go to the next image doesn't seem to work, what now ?
Why can't I pause indefinitely or show an image for longer than a day ?
Why does this use so much RAM ?
Disk usage just keeps growing. Why can't I configure any limit ?
Can the cached images be put somewhere else, like on my sd card ?
Do you want a balloon ?
You never need to look at that boring old wallpaper again, or search for hours for a nice new one. This app will show you quality photographs from all over the world - different ones each day!
The feature (popular, editor's choice, fresh, etc) and categories displayed are of course configurable, as is the refresh interval and the brightness of the images.
Please note that high resolution imagery and animation takes quite a bit of memory, so obviously this app is aimed at high-end devices.
If you are a Muzei user, 500 Firepaper also presents itself as an art source to Muzei.
Why is there no save feature ?
Not allowed per 500px API terms.
Three finger tap to go to the next image doesn't seem to work, what now ?
On some devices (like the HTC One) you need to put down your fingers one-by-one.
Why can't I pause indefinitely or show an image for longer than a day ?
Per 500px API terms the app cannot keep an image around for longer than 24 hours.
Why does this use so much RAM ?
High-resolution imagery takes a lot of memory in uncompressed form, and multiple buffers are required. But fear not, should your device need the memory while the wallpaper/daydream is not visible, the memory occupied by the app will automagically be released and repurposed.
Disk usage just keeps growing. Why can't I configure any limit ?
The built-in cache limit is around 256 MB - I've never seen it actually reach that limit before cleaning itself up, though.
Can the cached images be put somewhere else, like on my sd card ?
No, they cannot.
Do you want a balloon ?
No, but thanks for asking.
This application is completely dependent on the availability of 500px and its APIs. 500px can remove the APIs or revoke this application's API keys at any time. This will cause the application to stop working.
Due to 500px's API usage conditions, the application cannot cache images for longer than 24 hours. As such, if you are not connected to Wi-Fi while either charging or having a near-full battery for more than a day, the application will run out of images to display.
This application uses the 500px(tm) API and is not endorsed or certified by 500px or 500px Inc. All 500px Trademarks displayed on this application are property of 500px Inc.

USB Host Diagnostics
USB Host Diagnostics determines your device's USB host capabilities.
The result database is available here:
The discussion thread on XDA-Developers can be found here:
USB host is a very powerful feature of recent Android based smartphones and tablets, but on many firmwares (both stock and custom) the feature is somewhat broken.
For example, at launch the Galaxy Nexus told all the apps and the Market that it supported USB host, but USB host did not actually work (this was fixed in the Android 4.0.2 update). This broke several apps.
That is just one example of many. There are even cases where OEMs advertise USB host support, but the device does not support it at all. It appears as if USB host support isn't tested by Google or the OEMs when they push out new firmwares and devices at all.
As we cannot depend on Google or the OEMs to correctly provide information regarding USB host support, and the Android framework will regularly lie about it to both the Market as well as Android apps, this application was created so you can test your device's USB host capabilities for yourself.
If you allow it, the app will also submit your results to my website, so together we can create a complete database of devices and firmwares and their USB host support.
This tool may also come in handy for those porting firmwares.
- Android 2.3.1 or newer
- (Optional) Root
- USB OTG cable (unless your device has a fullsize USB port)
- USB memory stick, or another USB device to test the connection with

This upgrade enables extra features in StickMount and supports StickMount's development. See StickMount's description to learn about these features.
The price is aimed at being approximately one beer at the bar :)
You may need to restart StickMount and/or your device for the Pro features to become available.
[root] Chainfire3D Pro

Be sure to check the thread on XDA for available plugins !
Chainfire3D has been tested on:
Take control over your GPU!
Chainfire3D is an intermediary OpenGL driver. What does that mean? It means that Chainfire3D sits between your apps and the graphics drivers, and can intercept and/or change commands between the two. It has some built-in functions, and can be further extended with plugins to provide extra functionality.
!! Android 2.1 and newer. Now available for Honeycomb - but still a big risk there !!
!! Chainfire3D is for 1ghz+ devices only !!
!! ROOT is required for this program, as well as a writable /system partition. S-OFF is also required on HTC devices !!
Features include reducing texture size and quality to reduce memory use and potentially increase game performance, as well as increasing memory use potentially increase performance.
If you also install the (experimental) EGL driver, AND your GPU supports it, AND you have the Pro version, you can enable 4xMSAA or 16xMSAA on a per-app bases. This can drastically improve image quality!
Be sure to check the thread on XDA for available plugins !

Chainfire3D has been tested on:
- Samsung Galaxy S
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7"
- Samsung Galaxy S II
- Samsung Galaxy Note
- Samsung Epic 4G
- Motorola Atrix 4G
- Motorola Droid 2
- LG Optimus 2X

Many users are running Chainfire3D on devices not listed here - it's likely to work on all modern devices. So far nobody has reported a failed install, so that's good. Doesn't mean problems can't happen.
!! There is some risk involved installing the driver. Your device may not boot. If you have CWM, it would be prudent to create a backup before installing !!
CF-Bench is (mainly) CPU and memory benchmark tool specifically designed to be able to handle multi-core devices, produce a fairly stable score, and test both native as well managed code performance.
It tests specific device properties you do not regularly see tested by other benchmarks, and runs in a set timeframe.
It does produce some "final" scores, but as with every benchmark, you should take those with a grain of salt. It is simply not theoretically possible to produce a single number that accurately describes a device's performance.

Hotspot Control
Hotspot Control is a tiny app that enables or disables Portable Hotspot functionality of Android. Usually you could just do this in Android settings, but on some devices this option is hidden, or only works if you have a SIM inserted.
Hotspot Control does away with those requirements, assuming that the hotspot functionality itself is actually still present and operational on the device. Rooting is *usually* not required.
THIS IS NOT DESIGNED TO BEAT YOUR CARRIER'S TETHERING PROTECTION - For some people it does (it depends on how that protection is implemented) but this is not what the app was made for. It's no use complaining that it doesn't do this for you. This app is designed to circumvent some issues when setting up a *local* hotspot so your devices can communicate with eachother, *not* with the internet (though that also works on several devices).
You can configure the access point (hotspot) name and password, encryption used is alway WPA2 AES + TKIP, to keep it simple.
On some devices that do not have a cellular data connection capability (like the Nexus 10) the hotspot will not give out IP addresses - the app will auto-detect this situation and fix it, but root is required for that option. Note that without root on these devices, the connected devices can still communicate if you configure their IP addresses manually, but that is something for the advanced user.
I personally need this to create a private network (even without a SIM, and thus without an actual *internet* connection) in the field between a number of my devices. Some genius at Samsung decided that my Note II shouldn't create an access point if no SIM is present - I beg to differ! Maybe someone else has use for this as well.

[root] Pry-Fi
You are being watched...
Retailers, crooks, the government, and others shady individuals are tracking your movements. Even when your Wi-Fi is turned off, your phone may be broadcasting information to whomever is in range which can be used both to track repeated visits to as well as your exact movements in an area under surveillance.
It's not a big step to couple this to personal information - a retailer for example, could track your trip to the register and correlate with your payment information. Now the tracking hardware and software vendors, the store (or chain) owner, their business partners, they can now all track where you are every time you come into range of one of their systems, and fully profile who you are, what you do, your financials, and your daily patterns!
That is just one example, but there are many uses for tracking you. Make no mistake, this is happening in the real world today.
One solution is shutting off Wi-Fi completely (including the background network scanning, a setting most people don't know about), but you would lose benefits like automatically connecting to known Wi-Fi networks and improved location awareness for your apps. It also does nothing to help the situation for others.
Pry-Fi will prevent your device from announcing all the networks it knows to the outside world, but it will still allow background scanning and automatically connecting to Wi-Fi networks. While you are not connected to a Wi-Fi network, the MAC address will constantly be pseudo-randomized, following a pattern that still makes the trackers think you are a real person, but they will not encounter your MAC address again. This will slowly poison their tracking database with useless information.
When you do connect to a Wi-Fi network, unless you specify otherwise, your MAC address will also be randomized - the same MAC address will not be used the next time you connect to this or any other network.
Though of course the companies involved with these trackers claim they wouldn't use the data maliciously, the possibility is there, and we all know that if something can be abused, ultimately it will be. There do not appear to be any laws against these practices yet, nor is it likely Wi-Fi will be redesigned any time soon to get rid of the information leaks.
But we can make an effort to reduce the usefulness of the tracking data for the exploiters. Pry-Fi comes with a War mode, which when enabled tries to make your Android device appear like dozens of people. Just wandering around an area under Wi-Fi location surveillance for a few minutes can ruin the tracking data for the period of your stay.
Proof of Concept
This is proof-of-concept code, and how for it will go in the future depends on interest and how well it works. It has been tested on several devices and seems to work, but it is very young still. The magic the app does to achieve its purpose is ever subject to changing Android security policies and OEM customizations, so even though it works now, there really is no saying if it will still be possible in future firmwares.
Of course you should also keep in mind that tracking can be done in many ways, and these W-Fi signals are far from the only method in use.

[root] RegionLock Away
Region Lock
Compatible devices
Why is this paid ?
Region Lock
Sammy, in their never-ending quest to make sure they've pissed off every single one of their customers at least once, have decided to region lock their latest model devices. This means for example that you cannot use a European device with an American, Middle Eastern, Asian, ... , SIM card. You'd still be able to use the European SIM all over the world, but you would not be able to use a local SIM card while travelling outside of Europe - which would of course be much cheaper.
Sammy claims you can use any SIM card in the world after you've 'activated' with a SIM card from the region the device is from (in our example, Europe), but this has been proven by various (angry) Note 3 owners to not actually be the case.
The region lock is implemented in the form of a network blacklist. Beware that this is not exactly the same thing as a SIM lock, even though they are somewhat related. This blacklist blocks a number of whole countries and carriers, while a SIM lock whitelists one specific carrier. This app clears the network blacklist (region lock), but it may or may not remove the SIM lock, if present. Some have reported it works for them (for example: T-Mobile US Note3 on AT&T network: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471742 ), but this should be considered a side-effect.
While removing the region lock does not necessarily affect the SIM lock, various users have reported that inputting a proper SIM unlock code does remove the region lock as well. You can purchase SIM unlock codes at various places on the internet for 20 bucks or so. A benefit of using such a code is that you do not need to root your device or use this app. If you are not rooting your device already for other reasons, I would personally not root it to just region unlock, and buy an unlock code instead.
Compatible devices
- Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 (MI7, MJ1, MJ3 firmwares)
Right now, this has only been tested on Note 3's, and found working. Rumor has it Sammy will be bringing the region lock to a lot of devices, even backporting it to devices sold in the past (aren't there laws against this?). There's no way for me to know at this time if this specific method will keep working on the Note 3, or if it will work at all on other devices. Maybe the app will need updating, maybe Sammy will block this hack altogether, etc. Only time will tell.
In theory this hack can be done without rooting or voiding warranty with some device flashing and app modding, but I'm not currently working on that because it would be highly model-specific and I'm a root user anyway.
It is not currently known exactly when the network blacklist is updated. Beware that for example updating your firmware may cause the region lock to reactivate.
Why is this paid ?
You're pretty much just buying me (half) a beer. If you do not want or are not able to pay, you can get this app for free at XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470551 . Region unlocking only takes about a minute, so if it doesn't work for you, you should also have more than enough time to refund the app as well.
[root] CF.lumen
CF.lumen adapts the colors on your Android device based on the position of the sun, or your custom configuration.
When using the default settings, your display will get a warmer tint (lower color temperature) when the sun is down, vastly reducing strain on the eyes. Blue light makes your brain want to stay awake, and a lower color temperatures reduces the amount of blue displayed; using this in the evening reduces your brain's effort to keep you awake at night. (See f.lux for your PC)
During sleeping hours by default a red filter is used. Red strains your eyes the least, and retains your night vision.
Light sensor
The light sensor can be used to automagically adjust the color: switch to the sleep filter in full dark, or to the day filter (usually none) under bright lights.
Because light sensor quality varies wildly between devices, a calibration option is provided to experiment with.
Color filters
Several filters are provided. Those named after a color (red, green, blue, amber, salmon) do not limit the display to those colors, but convert the displayed image to grayscale first, then display that image in levels of the selected color. This preserves details that would otherwise be lost.
Grayscale, invert colors, temperature adjustment and custom R/G/B adjustment filters are also provided.
The master color filter setting also has an option for colorblindness enhancement, with settings for protanopia/anomaly, deuteranopia/anomaly and tritanopia/anomaly. These options redistribute colors across the spectrum, in theory enhancing clarity and color detail.
No claims are made to the effectiveness of these filters, but positive reports have been received from testers. Note that these filters were thought up by Google engineers, CF.lumen just includes them.
Pro version
Upgrading to CF.lumen Pro will support my developments, remove all nags, unlock the option to start at device boot (make sure you test your configuration first), and unlock notification options.
In Pro mode, the notification adds convenient buttons to quickly disable the current filter or switch to sleep mode, and you can switch the notification to when enabled mode, which shows the notification only when a color filter is active.
In non-Pro mode, the notification only asks you to upgrade to Pro. It may seem that notification is just there to annoy you, but it actually prevents Android from randomly killing the background service taking care of all the work. Getting rid of it without getting the service killed can be done by going to Settings -> Apps -> CF.lumen and unticking Show notifications.
As in the past CF.lumen was part of Chainfire3D, if you have the Pro package of the latter installed, Pro mode will also be enabled.
When no color filter is active, there should not be any noticeable performance impact. When a filter is active, impact depends on device and what you are doing. On some devices we have tested there was no performance impact at all, on others it was slightly noticeable.
Keep in mind that Android's rendering system changes over time. You should be aware that this app may simply stop working on future Android versions without the possibility of a fix.
Scary permissions
By far most permissions are used only for Google Maps to set your location, and Google Play to provide for In-App Purchases. I cannot make any claims as to what information the Google components do or do not send to Google servers, but no information is sent to me or anyone else (than Google).
Even more information, discussion, and support, can be found in this app's thread on XDA-Developers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51779367
[root] NoMoarPowah!
NoMoarPowah! replaces that boring charging animation when your phone is turned off but connected to the charger with a fully functional program!
Tested on the following devices:
!! This app is only for a select number of Samsung devices. It does not work on any other devices. See the list below !!
!! This app requires a fully rooted device !!
NoMoarPowah! can automatically reboot into Android when charging is done. Either when fully charged, or when the battery level reaches 15% and Android has enough juice to run.
But wait, there's more! NoMoarPowah! can also reboot at a custom time. It will even suggest times based on your currently set alarms, so your phone will be rebooted just before the alarm goes off and you need to wake up! This way you can be sure nobody will bother you while take your well-deserved nap, but still wake up when you need to.
Tested on the following devices:
- Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) and family
- Samsung Galaxy S2 (I9100) and family
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" (P1000) and family
- Samsung Droid Charge
- Samsung/T-Mobile Sidekick 4G
- Samsung Continuum (ticker overlaps)
It half works on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (all models): the functionality is there, but the touch screen does not work in charging mode.
Other devices from the Samsung Galaxy series with a resolution of 800x480 or more may work as well.
A Pro/AdFree version is also available.
!! Some custom ROMs may disable NoMoarPowah! functionality !!

Fourth Annual Summer Shakespeare Camps offered in Germantown by TSC
Germantown, Tenn. (May 1, 2013) – Tennessee Shakespeare Company, the Mid-South's professional, classical theatre and education organization, is offering two unique, immersive Shakespeare Play Camps to be held at the Poplar Pike Playhouse at Germantown High School this June.
Camps are open to students entering Grades 6-12.
These fun one- and two-week Camps offer participants the opportunity to train alongside TSC's professional actor-teachers, build upon essential acting techniques, and take personal ownership of Shakespeare's text.
"For children new to Shakespeare, you couldn't ask for a better introduction," promises Education Director, Stephanie Shine. "Meeting these plays as a player of Shakespeare makes them immediate, accessible, and most of all fun. After the TSC camp experience, a student will eagerly greet Shakespeare like a good friend when they meet him again in a traditional classroom."
Playing, training, and rehearsing just like TSC actors, participants are led through sessions in Stage Combat, Text Work, Scene Play, Voice Work, Stage Movement, and Elizabethan Dance. Both Summer Play Camps are performance-based, and culminate in a public sharing of soliloquies, scenes, combat, and dance.
"Young people will develop language to articulate their feelings, gain greater empathy and compassion, and master skills that will propel them through their personal and professional futures," says teacher Slade Kyle, who has taught in the Camps each of the last three years.
Through TSC's Camps, participants gain a deeper understanding of collaboration, a greater awareness of themselves, and enhanced confidence.
Previous Camps sold to full capacity and were met with great response:
"A mind-blowing experience." - Houston High School student
"It was perfect!" - 12-year-old participant
"Interactive, exciting – Fantastic!" - Germantown High School participant
The Play's the Thing: One Week - Focus: Twelfth Night
Dates: June 10-14, Monday–Friday from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm.
Cost: $250 (Holiday Ham lunches available for an additional $7/day).
Participants: Students entering Grades 6-12, with any level of theatrical experience.
Young Players Training Intensive: Two Weeks
Dates: June 17 – 28, Monday–Friday from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm.
Cost: $500 (Holiday Ham lunches available for an additional $7/day).
Participants: Students entering Grades 6-12, with some theatrical experience.

Tennessee Shakespeare Company (TSC), the Mid-South's professional classical theatre, launches its new schools touring show this week with the Memphis-inspired Shake(s), Rattle & Roll.
Created by TSC Education Director Stephanie Shine and featuring actors Slade Kyle and Cara McHugh, Shake(s), Rattle & Roll is booking now in elementary, middle, and high schools throughout the Mid-South. Last year, the tour played to 6,000 students in the South. This year's tour will exceed that capacity while touring across the state and into North Carolina, Georgia, and Kentucky.
Shake(s), Rattle & Roll is a 45-minute, tour-de-force that imagines both a social and artistic through-line between the plays of William Shakespeare and the music that makes Memphis unique – Blues, Gospel, Soul, Rhythm and Blues, and Rock-n-Roll.Read More

text: 29 يناير 2013 01:30 Air Seychelles today unveiled an exciting new addition to its distinctive, brightly-coloured livery when its second Airbus A330-200 aircraft was delivered. The Air Seychelles name now adorns the underbelly, for brand visibility from the ground while the aircraft is in flight. The aircraft is named in honour of Vallée de Mai, the Seychelles' second UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site, which is located on the island of Praslin and is home to the famous Coco de Mer, the world's largest seed and symbol of the Seychelles. On the new aircraft, the UNESCO status is included alongside the Vallée de Mai name, visible to passengers upon boarding. The aircraft is scheduled to take its first test flight in February and will join the fleet in March to launch Air Seychelles' new international schedule, which includes new services to Hong Kong and increased frequencies to Abu Dhabi, Johannesburg and Mauritius. Cramer Ball, Air Seychelles Chief Executive Officer, said: "Air Seychelles' livery turns heads, both in the sky and on the ground, embodying the beauty of the islands and the liveliness of the culture. Our livery is based on the pristine ecosystem of the Seychelles and our support for a greener Seychelles. With these changes, our aircraft will be even more distinctive. "I'm particularly proud of the name given to the aircraft, as this year, Vallée the Mai observes its 30th year as a UNESCO World Heritage site. We are thrilled, as the national airline, to promote these symbols of the Seychelles' environmental commitment." آراؤكم إذا أردتم أن توجهوا لنا أي تعليق أو شكوى أو إطراء أو سؤال، اضغطوا هنا اتصلوا بنا تتواجد مكاتبنا في مختلف أنحاء العالم باعتبارنا من شركات الطيران الدولية. اطلعوا على كيفية التواصل مع أقرب مكتب للاتحاد للطيران. تفاصيل الاتصال انضموا إلينا انضموا لصفحتنا العربية في فيسبوك شاهدونا زوروا قناة الاتحاد للطيران في يوتيوب Follow Us Etihad Airways | Etihad Deals | Etihad Help | Etihad Rewards

Reward offered in 2009 slaying
Javier Ramos, 26, killed on Dec. 9, 2009
A heartbroken mother asked for the public's help Friday, seeking any information that might help solve her son's death.
Molly Zapata said her family is still reeling from the death of Javier Ramos who was killed during a home invasion in December 2009.
Someone had kicked in the back door of the house and shot and killed Ramos, police said, but investigators have no suspects in his death.
"My son was such a good person," said Zapata. "He should not have died this way."
Police have had trouble identifying leads in the case, and have put the word out to the public for help.
Any one with information on the crime is asked to call 224-STOP. A reward of $5,000 still stands for information leading to an arrest.
