weird game...
i don't really get it... but okay ... i guess
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars March 21, 2008
It was fun, but it got repetitive. It was very difficult to find a good speed, considering that "just fast enough to win" was so close to "pleasure down". In the future, maybe change up the "battle" system with more features, and give different characters different stats or special abilities. Overall, pretty good.

And I assume he pleasured himself.

5 Great Educational iPad Apps for Kids
We love seeing the wide-eyed look of wonder on a friend's face when we introduce a great piece of tech to them. We have seen this look frequently when we share our latest tech acquisition, our iPad, and it is especially fun to see it on the eyes of a kid. Eager to share our iPad with our children and young friends, we began the search for age appropriate educational apps. As a group of several former elementary school teachers there are some habits we just can't seem to break ourselves of, and one of these is looking at the education prospects of every device and app that we play with. We at Unplggd love delving into kid tech and with our education backgrounds coming into play we knew it was time for an educational iPad app roundup tailored for kids. Here are some of our top picks of great educational iPad apps for kids:
What's the Difference? What's the Difference is a great app that can keep kids from ages 2 to 90 occupied for quite some time. Recently, we were using the app with a 4 and 2 year old and it was difficult to tell who was loving the app more. The app does exactly what you think it would, it provides side by side images that are almost identical (but with 5 differences) and allows the user to race around the clock trying to spot the differences. Because it relies on images, once a game is set up, no reading is needed making it great for the youngest iPad users. Free.Tangram XL
We loved taking out the box marked "Tangram" as a child and could not help but feel delight when our young friend enjoyed using the iPad version of the puzzle toy we have long loved. Tangram is made up of several shapes which you use to create pictures. The iPad app is responsive as well as forgiving making it an app that works well and engages a variety of ages. Because of the difficulty of many of the puzzles it's not an app to be regarded as solely for kids. The logic and reasoning that is required to sort out the puzzles can be a turn off for some young users, so be sure to start with the simpler puzzles in order to build up confidence. Free.
Math Magic
Remember flashcards? Well, think of this app like interactive flashcards that are a bit more visually appealing than tattered index cards. Math Magic frames addition, subtraction, and division problems like a game and really engages young learners. Because the app supports multiple operations as well as negative numbers, it can be used by those kindergartners learning simple addition to the more complicated division encountered by third graders, it is really quite the value for the mere cost of $0.99.
What is your favorite educational app for kids?

Our favorite app on the ipadis actually an iphone one, but it scales OK:
Feed me!
You have to feed a monster with the results of the questions he asks.
I was surprised to watch my 3 years old going enthusiastically through all the questions, learning his letters and numbers without paying attention. Lovely!
My 3 y.o. loves 123 Tracer and ABC Tracer on my iphone, especially the games where you pop numbered or alphabetic balloons in the correct order. We have an ipad on order (mostly) for him.
Really appreciate this list - we are on the hunt for meaningful apps for our kid too. It's great that there are so many classic games like tangrams can be captured on the iPad - and some really great ones that are free.
We started a site to try to list the apps that have been meaningful from a learning/development standpoint for our kid - http://apps4ikids.com - with a heavy belief that there needs to be balance, but used well - pretty excited to see the potential of the iPad as well as the other iOS devices.
meaningful educational apps we like: smartyK
(smartyshortz company) My daughter uses in her school so we use at home, it's great
There is a new app called Homework that helps kids learn their vocabulary. You enter your word lists and record your word and then kids can practice and take tests. My wife loves it because the kids want to play on the phone, so this way they must pass their spelling test first. No pass, no play. It also makes it saver to do spelling in the car since our son can practice with the iPhone and mom does not have to read spelling words while driving.
Not bad!
I would like to suggest you one more great app for kids - We Search HD:
This game will helps kids (3+) to improve their memory and fingers.
Please share your opinion about it.
We set up a site to review the children's book apps on iPad
this list is really cool! im going to load some apps from it.
my niece and I looooooove star walk app! thats so amazing and we've learned some names of stars and constellations!
i can also recommend solar walk from the same developer vito technology! it has 3D mode so we used glasses and its breathtaking feeling when sun rises on your ipad!
These are great - thanks for the info! For those parents with kids interested in making their own apps and games, my nephew had presented this summer camp to my sister with a proposal to fund his registration :) http://www.internaldrive.com/courses-programs/
Try this nice for teaching good habits to kids - Little Steps to Good Habits.
For iPad : http://itunes.apple.com/in/app/little-steps-to-good-habits/id411404110?mt=8
For iPhone : http://itunes.apple.com/in/app/little-steps-to-good-habits/id415863237?mt=8
There is another nice app for kids between 3 and 7 years for iphone and ipad: ABC Land German
It teaches German through reading and spelling. You can also hear the word and funny sounds.
Me and my partner have created a couple of learning apps for kids used to help learn their math tables. A lot of learning apps we've seen are kind of complicated for young children, so we have created simple to use apps that have the same function as flash cards with the ability to shuffle and sort. Each app contains the tables 1-12, has backgrounds for boys or girls to choose from, and is great for kids just beginning to learn their math tables. We are always looking for good learning app ideas for kids, so if any one has anything they would like to see, post on here and we can see what most people are looking for.

Nice list! Looking for apps for you Summer trip and found the article. We have a couple more that really give the kids some joy... Slideamajig and Angry Birds.
ipad apps for kids
I came across your site looking for other apps. The coolest think I've seen for educational apps for the Ipad.
Thanks for sharing!apps for kids or http://www.popkidsapps.com/
Nice list of apps for kids. I strongly recomended Learning Heroes Kids Coloring Book. It free app:
< a href > http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lh-kids-coloring-book/id440493175?mt=8&ls=1 </a href>
What a great list! I love www.abcjoinedup.com. A great little app for improving handwriting. I'm amazed as it got my very reluctant son writing beautifully. :-)
Please permit me to introduce you to a new children's educational game for the iPad and iPhone:
Counting Beads is a totally fun way for children to learn numbers and letters of the alphabet. The numbers (or letters) appear as colored beads that you connect by dragging each bead into its next higher numbered bead. As you connect the beads in numbered order, you create a chain that follows the lead bead as you drag. This teaches the numbers visually. You can also move the bead chain by holding the device face-up parallel to the floor and tilting it slightly to let gravity roll the leading bead downhill. Even older folks can have fun with this amusing simple game.
A brief demo video of this app is available on UTube:
Star Walk is pretty incredible. My child's other favorite app is called Math Monkey:
Math Monkey is like an educational "Angry Birds" and helps him practice addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It's the best babysitter I've found!
Great suggestions, I'll get my 5 year old on it!
I have my two year old learning new words off this one also, which works very well... simple, but very easy for him to navigate (called "Push and Learn"):
Now a days Apps are no longer just a way to keep you entertained. Apps can also play a key role in your kids educatin.
Its just after reading this post i realized that Apps can also really help in your Kids education. This is a Good collection of Apps. I would definitely try few of them.
Try new educational ipad app for children aged 1 year and over. Tappie Colorit 2.19 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tappie-colorit/id451018024?mt=8 the new touch-screen application suitable for small kids aged 1 to 3 years old. Kids are encouraged to figure out simple cognitive puzzles based on shape or color. Game is created with the focus of the most important moments for kid's development of this age. It promotes development of fine fingers mobility, color perception, logical thinking, attention, and skills to compare of subjects on value, the form and color. Components of this game have bigger sizes and colors that are suitable for small kids.
Children learn to recognize shapes and colors, distinguish that figures are differ, but even different subjects can have something general, for example, color. The fine motor and concentration skills enormously important at this age and are being smoothly developed through playing experience. Tappie Colorit is outlined by colorful, but calm palette that does not overload child's nervous system.
This application can use children with special possibilities also. How it works in kids' hands: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH6X2dlIlus
One more app for kids aged 1+ Tappie Games http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tappie-games/id455577429?mt=8
this article was great. thanks
I found this site also on best kids apps..
My son has really benefited from an app called "Math - Grade K" for the iPad. It is a simple, no frills app that lets kids practice their addition, subtraction and comparison. It increases the difficulty automatically as they answer correctly.
iTunes link:
I bought the Walter Foster Learn to Draw apps on sale a while back, and my kids LOVE them. They can draw on the iPad without the mess of paper and different pens, and if they want to share, the drawings just save to my photos.
I think this is it. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/learn-to-draw-digital-sketchbook/id384300160?mt=8
When my daughter's teacher asked us to practice her math facts (ex: sets of numbers that add up to a number) we found Hungry Fish.
In Hungry Fish the fish swims around with the same number on it for all of a level. Bubbles float around on the screen and you have to push the bubbles together to add up (or subtract) to the number on the fish. The fish eats the "right" bubbles and grows, or shrinks in some modes if you take too long.
You can set the difficulty, and purchase the subtraction or negative number modules. Addition is free. My 4 year old enjoys the easier levels, while my 7 year old likes the harder ones. The longer the kids play, the more points they get, and they get to customize their fish with new features (different types of fins, colors, eyes, etc), but they have to keep playing to add to the ways they can change their fish. They also can name their fish and each have their own game.
I've had it on my phone for four months, and my kids still enjoy playing it.
Hungry Fish. :)
You may want to check this site with app reviews, promocodes and daily giveaways: Appysmarts
Easy ABC 123 is a great kid's app that covers both spelling and math for level K-5.
there is a great educational app store which specialises on apps for kids, parents, students and educators. You can find really good apps in there. The website is http://www.educationalappstore.com
PipeBall and PipeBallPlus are educational and fun games for iPad and iPhone. Great for kids - my kids love it, but also very challenging for adults. It combines Math, Geometry, Physics, Logistics and strategy in one.
The best games can educate while still being really fun...
I just got to know about Jazzy World Tour, a brand new music learning app for Kids. It has a free version and interface is so user friendly.

Tim Chae: Make New Friends
Chances are, if you are reading this post, you are interested in YCombinator/TechStars, you follow guys like Fred Wilson and Dave McClure amongst many others on Twitter, and you religiously read TechCrunch as you simultaneously envision the day TC writes about you and your startup.
Now, look around you. Are you surrounded by like-minded peers or are you alone?
If you answered "alone", don't worry, you are one of many first time entrepreneurs who are in solitude - especially if you are currently a college student. The thing about startup life, especially at the college level, is that you often feel discouraged as you are the only one doing what you are doing out of your close friends and thus, it suppresses your potential capabilities.
Imagine you are trying to sprint the 100M dash. You are trying to be as fast as you can be. How do you think you would perform in comparison to running solo if you had someone just as fast as you are on the track lane next to you the entire way from the start to the finish line? There's a reason to why Olympians run their fastest times running against top competitors rather than from solo trial runs. If you don't have this type of a friend who is interested in what you are interested in, pursuing what you are pursuing, carrying the same passion for entrepreneurship, who will continue to push you to perform your best in working on your startup, go get one.
The question is: How?
Try to look within your college campus first. If your school has some student entrepreneurship club, try to get in touch with them there. The thing about college entrepreneurs - actually, entrepreneurs in general - tend to all be connected to each other within one or two degrees of separation. Once you get connected to these peers, just be yourself because all you are really doing is creating new friendships. However, maybe you don't go to an entrepreneurship friendly schools such as Babson, MIT, Harvard or Northeastern. For students on campuses without well established entrepreneurship programs or the relevant student body, get plugged into event-oriented organizations like DartBoston and look at Greenhorn's Calendar. The weekly Greenhorn TV that Jason and Ashkan put on summarizing the top events of the week is a great place to start out. The general age-demographic of these events are usually college students (~18-22) and young professionals (22-26).
You should realize how fortunate you are for being in college while working on your first startup. The resources that colleges provide, like-minded peers that you will find on campus, on top of the advice from your professors, all add up to something like an incubator for great startups. There are so many reasons why you should pursue your first startup in college and you can read them here.
Tim Chae is the co-founder of Redeemr, student at Babson College studying Tech Entrepreneurship and Design, and now an Associate VC at Romulus Capital that focuses on funding Boston-area college entrepreneurs. He blogs regularly about his experiences with startups on his personal page. You can reach Tim at tim.chae [at] gmail.com or find him at many of Boston area's startup events.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. —
Virginia quarterback Michael Rocco grew up a huge Penn State fan, and with good reason.
His father and uncle played for the late Joe Paterno, and his grandfather coached with Paterno for 19 seasons. Michael Rocco even had an offer to add to the family ties and attend Penn State, but says once he donned Cavaliers' orange and blue, any allegiance to the Nittany Lions disappeared.
Rocco will lead the Cavaliers (1-0) against visiting Penn State (0-1) on Saturday.
It's the second straight weekend Rocco has had to prepare for an opponent with family ties. Last week, he threw for 311 yards in just three quarters in leading the Cavaliers past a Richmond team coached by his uncle, Danny Rocco — who played for Penn State from 1979-80. This week, he is getting ready for the team that his dad, Frank, won a national championship with in 1982.
"When my family and I looked at the schedule, whenever it first came out, we were just kind of shocked at how familiar the first couple of games would be," Michael Rocco said. "I've had so many affiliations with Penn State, it's crazy how it's worked out, but my approach doesn't change based on the opponent."
Still a staunch fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates and Penguins, Rocco said he was "the biggest Penn State there was" growing up, often attending games on trips to State College, Pa., to see his grandfather, Frank Rocco Sr., and his grandmother. But he said he hasn't been to Beaver Stadium since about 2008.
A devout Christian, Rocco said he paid some attention to the sex abuse scandal at Penn State that eventually led to the ouster last winter of Paterno and three high level administrators. But having grown apart from the program and then seeing the coaching staff change made, he said made it less painful to watch.
"It hasn't been as devastating as it would have been if I was still that young boy that idolized Penn State football," he said, "and it's just because I've kind of grown apart from them."
The opportunity to arrive at Penn State as a "grayshirt," which would have meant skipping fall semester and enrolling after the season, came from Paterno himself after Rocco performed well during a football camp.
It was a "cool experience," Rocco said of the meeting with Paterno, but not one he seriously considered. He initially signed with Louisville, but when Louisville and Virginia changed their coaching staffs, he talked to new Virginia coach Mike London, heard the Cavaliers were going to run a pro-style offense and came to Charlottesville.
He's making it look like the right move, too.
Rocco won a preseason battle for the starting job against sophomore David Watford and highly touted Alabama transfer Phillip Sims, and picked up where he left off last season against the Spiders.
His 311 passing yards was one shy of his career high, set last January in the Chick-fil-A Bowl in a loss to Auburn. The victory improved the Cavaliers' record to 9-5 in games started by the junior.
Penn State linebacker Mike Mauti has been impressed by what he's seen.
"He's a good decision-maker, a guy that's not going to make bad decisions in the game," Mauti said. "We need to contain him and do our best to put pressure on him."
Rocco has been more inclined to make short- or medium-range throws so far in his career, and while London knows fans are excited about the presence of Sims, one of the highest rated quarterbacks when he left high school three years ago, the coach also appreciates how Rocco goes about his business.
"Every player has their own style and a way they play the game, and that's what Michael does — he manages the game and makes the throws and the checks and he calls plays at the line of scrimmage," London said. "He directs the pass protection. So it's easy to see a player that can scramble and run and looks 'oh, wow,' and all that.
"But you want to know, can he run? Can he control the offense? Can he make the throws and make the decisions? That type of player is the type of player Michael is."
And one who harbors no ill will against the team he grew up following.
"It's really," Rocco said, "just another game on the schedule that we've got to prepare for."

VIA PadLock—Wicked Fast Encryption
Probably everyone who has used encryption soon realised that the demand for processor power grew instantly. On older systems, the trade-off for using encrypted filesystems is slower file operations; on newer systems, the trade-off is, at minimum, significantly higher CPU loads. Encrypting network traffic with the IPsec protocol also slows things down, and sometimes you may encounter performance problems even on the standard 100Mbps network.
Options exist, however, for working around these encryption/performance trade-offs:
Don't encrypt: apparently the cheapest solution, but this can become very expensive in the long run.
Accept the slowdown: the typical approach.
Use a standalone cryptography accelerator: a PCI card, for example, doesn't help as much as you might expect, however, because the data must traverse the PCI bus more often than necessary.
Use a CPU with VIA PadLock technology. What's VIA PadLock? Read on.
A while back, VIA introduced a simple but slightly controversial approach: select some cryptographic algorithms and wire them directly in to the CPU. The result was the introduction of an i686 class processor that understands some new instructions dedicated to cryptographic functions. This technology is called VIA PadLock, and the processor is fully compatible with AMD Athlons and Intel Pentiums.
The PadLock features available on your machine's processor are determined by its version. Processor versions usually are written as a family-model-stepping (F/M/S) triplet. Family is always 6 for i686 class CPUs. If the model is 9, your CPU has a Nehemiah core; if the model is 10, it has an Esther core. The stepping denotes a revision of each model. You can find your processor's version in /proc/cpuinfo.
Nehemiah stepping 3 and higher offers an electrical noise-based random number generator (RNG) that produces good random numbers for different purposes. The instruction for accessing the RNG is called xstore. As in Intel and AMD processors, the random number generator in VIA processors is supported by the hw_random device driver.
Nehemiah stepping 8 and higher contains two independent RNGs and the Advanced Cryptography Engine (ACE). The ACE can encrypt and decrypt data using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm with three standard key lengths—128, 192 and 256 bytes—in four different modes of operation: electronic codebook (ECB), cipher block chaining (CBC), cipher feedback (CFB) and output feedback (OFB) modes (see the on-line Resources). The appropriate instructions are called xcryptecb, xcryptcbc and so on. Later in this article, I predominately use their common group name, xcrypt, instead of the mode-specific instruction names.
Esther stepping 0 and higher inherited two RNG units from Nehemiah. ACE was extended with counter (CTR) mode support and MAC (Message Authentication Code) computation. And there are two new acronyms, PHE and PMM. PadLock Hash Engine (PHE) is used for computing a cryptographic hash, also known as a digest, of a given input block, using the SHA1 or SHA256 algorithm. The proposed instruction name is xsha.
The PadLock Montgomery Multiplier (PMM) is responsible for speeding up one of the most time-consuming computations used in asymmetric, or public-key, cryptography: AB mod M, where A, B and M are huge numbers, usually 1,024 or 2,048 bits. This instruction is called montmul.
As noted above, in the rest of this article I mostly speak about the xcrypt instruction. Principles described further mostly are valid for other units as well, and xcrypt serves only as an example. Also, the terms and concepts covered in this encryption discussion apply to decryption as well.
In contrast to the external cryptography accelerators usually plugged in to PCI slots, the PadLock engine is an integral part of the CPU. This fact significantly simplifies its use, because it is not necessary to bother with accessing the bus or with interrupts, asynchronous operations and so on. Encrypting a block of memory with xcrypt is as easy as copying it over with the movs instruction.
At this point, encryption is almost an atomic operation. Before executing the instruction, the buffer contains plain-text input data; a few clock cycles later, when the execution finishes, we have ciphertext. If a task requested processing of a single block, which is 16 bytes in the case of the AES algorithm, the operation is fully atomic. That is, the CPU doesn't interrupt it in the middle and doesn't do anything else until the encryption is finished.
But what if the buffer contains a gigabyte of plain text to be processed? It isn't good to stop all other operations and wait for the encryption to finish when it's this large. In such a case, the CPU can interrupt the encryption after every single block of 16 bytes. The current state is saved, and whatever else can be done is done—interrupts can be handled and processes switched. As soon as the encrypting process is restarted, the instruction continues from the point at which it was suspended. That's why I say this is almost an atomic operation: for the calling process it looks atomic, but it can be interrupted by a higher-priority event. The current processing state then is saved into the memory and registers of the running process, which enables multiple tasks to do encryption simultaneously, without the risk of mixing their data. Again, it is an analogous situation to copying memory blocks with the movs instruction.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

Do you enjoy hack-n-slash but longed for a bit more? Maybe you like city builder games but find them a bit boring? Here is a different take on the same old styles of game. A hack-n-slash without loot or endless level grinding. A city builder without resource management. A game where you don't play an epic hero, but a humble shoemaker that must work together with villagers to defend against waves of attacks. Build, upgrade, rotate and decorate the village. Each building adds unique abilities to you and your fellow villagers. Defend against waves of monsters intent on killing everyone. Do you have what it takes to survive?

sail-world.com -- America's Cup: Andrew Simpson MBE remembered
America's Cup: Andrew Simpson MBE remembered
Sat, 11 May 2013
Andrew Simpson died doing what he did well – sailing a high-end racing craft.
He was a leading figure in the development of the Artemis Racing 72-foot wing-sailed catamaran for the upcoming America's Cup. Simpson, known universally among his fellow sailors as 'Bart', was trapped under the boat when it capsized on San Francisco Bay during a routine training exercise. Efforts made to resuscitate him after being held underwater for ten minutes, both afloat and ashore, were unsuccessful.
The 36-year old Simpson won a gold medal at the Beijing Olympics in 2008 in the Star class with his long-term sailing partner, Iain Percy. The two had been friends for years and campaigned again with the Star in Weymouth last year where they won the silver medal – only one wave that lifted a fellow competitor, and not the British boat, at the finish line of the medal race prevented them from taking their second gold medal after they had led on points throughout the regatta. He was awarded the MBE in 2009 following his Beijing success.
All sailors have their specialities and Simpson's extended from his search for speed into the nuts and bolts of how it might be obtained. His meticulous boat preparation was second to none and Percy was content to leave the majority of the details of this to his crewman. Simpson spent many hours working on their Star and was rewarded with unsurpassed boat performance.
In addition, he was a superb athlete. He knew he had to be extremely fit to give the necessary physical energy to sailing a boat at its limits and concentrate on the mental aspects of sail trim and tactics. Percy relied a great deal on the input he received from his friend Andrew who had trained physically for his task after admitting that he had 'flabbed up' after ceasing to sail the Finn for a year.
His sailing began at the age of six, with his father in a Seafly dinghy from Christchurch, Dorset and progressed into the RYA Youth Squad under the direction of Chief Coach Jim Saltonstall, who declared him: 'One of my finest 'ferrets' – he enjoyed learning to sail better all the time.' Simpson, however, was the perpetual bridesmaid, never quite able to master his two contemporaries, Percy and Ben Ainslie, but of that he showed no lasting concern and was happy to contribute to joint success with Percy.
Earlier in his sailing career, Andrew Simpson had sailed the men's heavyweight single-handed dinghy, the Finn. This is an athlete's boat and after finishing second in the Olympic trials, he became Percy's training partner in this class – an alliance that produced a gold medal for Percy at the Sydney Olympics. At the time, Percy was full of praise for the assistance he had received. 'This medal,' he said after it had been awarded, 'is half Andrew's.'
Britain's Olympic Team Manager, Stephen Park, said: 'This is one of the saddest-ever days for the sailing world. 'Bart' was a talented, well-known and much liked competitor who was respected within his peer group. He will be missed around the racing venues.'
It was natural that he would follow his skipper into the America's Cup when he joined the Artemis Racing team and was full of enthusiasm for the task in hand. Constantly smiling, Simpson was enjoying his first America's Cup campaign with the Swedish Artemis team. 'This may not be racing for Britain,' he said recently, 'but it is in preparation for the time when our country can mount a challenge.'
Andrew Simpson, born 17th December 1976, died 9th May 2013, leaves a wife, Leah, and two children.

Silver Filled. Closed Jump Rings. 10mm / 16 Gauge Thick. Quantity: 4. Great cost effective closed silver filled jump rings. Quality: 1/10 Silver-filled, which means that the outer 10% of each item is.925 silver. The core of these rings is brass. The silver is mechanically bonded to the brass. The result is much thicker than silver plating. This process make the rings much less expensive than solid sterling silver, and the difference in quality is impossible to see with the naked eye. Unlike silver plate, which can wear off quite quickly, silver filled will keep its beauty through years of daily wear. Just use the same precautions you would with real silver jewelry - don't expose to harsh chemicals, and when not in use, store in a dry, airtight bag or container. Measurements: 10mm, 16 Gauge (0.051") thick. Quantity: 4 Closed Jump Rings

iPad 4 hard to fix and wastes space, says iFixit
Anyone attempting to repair Apple's 4th-gen iPad will face a rough job, according to the folks at iFixit.
Examining the innards of the iPad 4, the fixit site found that the unit is glued shut through adhesive. Taking apart the tablet required iFixit to apply heat to soften the adhesive and then pry it open with guitar picks, which fortunately didn't damage the device.
As with the iPad 3, the battery is adhered securely to the rear case, making it hard to reach and difficult to remove. But that's par for the course, as Apple specifically designs … Read more

Best New Gym San Francisco 2007 - UCSF Bakar Fitness Center at Mission Bay
If there were ever a reason to go back to school, UCSF's new fitness center at Mission Bay could be it. Luckily, you don't have to be a student to join the gym, which offers brand-spankin'-new equipment, pools, youth and family programs, group fitness, recreational sports, aquatics, outdoor programs, personal training, massage services, and a kids' club whew! The all-new facility offers up Gucci-like amenities like flat-screen cable TVs on all of the workout machines, a heated rooftop swimming pool, deluxe elevators, and high ceilings. Premium members get free parking, too, but the waiting list is long. Try for an off-peak membership (midday workouts for non-corporate slackers like waiters and freelance writers), which allows you to jump the queue and get your workout on when the gym's a little less crowded.

UAB's search for a new head men's basketball coach could end up impacting Ole Miss. Shortly after Mike Davis was relieved of his duties as the Blazers' coach Friday morning by UAB Athletics Director Brian Mackin, candidates to serve as his replacement quickly surfaced.
Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy was at the top of the media's list, both regionally and nationally, due to his long-standing connection with UAB. Kennedy played for legendary UAB coach Gene Bartow from 1988-1991 after transferring from N.C. State.
Kennedy also got his coaching career off the ground in Alabama starting off at South Alabama in 1994 and then serving five years as an assistant at UAB before moving on to Cincinnati. (March 19, 2012, Page 7)

Dear everyone who supported the walk for Haiti,
On September 17th, I finished the Pacific Crest Trail. I camped near the
trailhead in Canada that night and I wrote my final thoughts regarding
comparisons between the trail, American society and current Haitian life.
It's not very long but its a little too long for email. I'll post it on
the website in a week or so and send the link, if you are interested
Meanwhile, I did post a video on YouTube of my finishing.
The link is at http://youtu.be/g3GrZGtbLsU
I really appreciate all the support, and Mission Manna will use that money
to the fullest. I ended up hiking 2,655 miles. Most people pledged 1 cent
per mile, so the total comes up to $26.55. If you pledged more, just do
the math.
Meanwhile, I'll send you that link when I get it up here in a few days.
Take care and Ill talk to you soon,
John Kelleher
An earlier report about Kelleher's progress is here .

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — While top-ranked Louisiana State may not need to win the SEC to reach the national championship football game, the Tigers remain motivated heading into their matchup on Saturday against No. 12 Georgia."Winning the SEC is extremely important," said sophomore cornerback Tyrann Mathieu, who has never won a football championship. "I know that the last few years the team that won the SEC did pretty good in the national title game. That's our first goal.
"We really want to go undefeated and Georgia is in our way."
LSU and the surging Georgia Bulldogs — winners of 10 consecutive games — meet in Saturday night's Southeastern Conference championship game in Atlanta. But according to some BCS projections, the Tigers could lose the game and still play for the national title.
LSU coach Les Miles doesn't want to hear any of that. He is trying to ensure that the only thing on his players' minds is Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray, tailback Isaiah Crowell and the rest of the Bulldogs.
"I'll go through the (BCS) issues with the players and deflect them," Miles said. "It's all fundamental to the game we're about to play. We won the West. That is an accomplishment, and this year, that's a great accomplishment. Georgia won the East side. Now we play for conference honors.
"There will be no review of what's next. Nothing will come from my mouth about that. Our team is so looking forward to play Georgia. This is what the team has set its sights upon. This is the conference where we compete week in and week out.
"It's one game for a championship."
Winning SEC championships hasn't always been a normal occurrence at LSU.
But then the Tigers reeled off three in an eight-year span. Nick Saban arrived led LSU to conference titles in 2001 and 2003. Then in Miles' third season as coach, LSU won another SEC crown in 2007.
The Tigers had won just three SEC titles in the 37 years prior to Saban's arrival: Charles McClendon lead LSU to the 1970 crown, Bill Arnsparger did it in 1986 and Mike Archer in 1988.
Today, however, there are no players on LSU's roster with SEC championship game experience.
The fifth-year seniors on the squad were being redshirted when the Tigers knocked off Tennessee in the 2007 title game en route to a national championship. Will Blackwell, who played his high school football in West Monroe, La., was on the sidelines as an observer four years ago.
Growing up in SEC territory, Blackwell values a conference title.
"It's tough to explain why this game is important," Blackwell said. "You can't explain it to people who live outside of the South. If you live in the region, you understand the SEC has the best competition.
"You want to have bragging rights and you can't do that unless you win the conference."
Sophomore safety Eric Reid doesn't want to leave LSU's national title hopes in the hands of computers and voters.
"I have never had an undefeated season before in football," Reid said. "I've never won a championship in football at any level. We still have one game before the BCS game. If we lose that one, we may not make that game."

►Orphan orangutans differing in genetic backgrounds did not differ in a raking task ► However, individuals differed in a honey-dipping task requiring cultural knowledge ► Orangutans arrived at the center with a knowledge they did not express in the wild ► These results suggest orphans differed in cultural ideas rather than behaviors
Animal cultures are controversial [1, 2,1, 2] because the method used to isolate culture in animals aims at excluding genetic and environmental influences rather than demonstrating social learning [3, 4,3, 4]. Here, we analyzed these factors in parallel in captivity to determine their influences on tool use. We exposed Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) orphans from tool-using and non-tool-using regions (western swamps and eastern Langkat, respectively) that differed in both genetic [5] and cultural [6] backgrounds to a raking task and a honey-dipping task [7, 8,7, 8] to assess their understanding of stick use. Orangutans from both regions were equally successful in raking; however, swamp orangutans were more successful than Langkat orangutans in honey dipping, where previously acquired knowledge was required. A larger analysis suggested that the Alas River could constitute a geographical barrier to the spread of this cultural trait [9]. Finally, honey-dipping individuals were on average less than 4 years old, but this behavior is not observed in the wild before 6 years of age. Our results suggest first that genetic differences between wild Sumatran populations cannot explain their differences in stick use; however, their performances in honey dipping support a cultural differentiation in stick knowledge. Second, the results suggest that the honey-dippers were too young when arriving at the quarantine center to have possibly mastered the behavior in the wild individually [10], suggesting that they arrived with preestablished mental representations of stick use or, simply put, "cultural ideas."

Actually, we didn't know a damn.Jobbie didn't die not because you protected him... he didn't die because we sent a 'no kill' order.We had no idea about a cop or a doc. I took a wild guess and claimed cop after no lynch, thinking there's going to be a cop and I'll just have to convince the rest that he's the scum and not me, or that there's a doc who will speak up and make it easy.... And your exchange with Kris made me think that you were the doc so we killed you the next night... making everything else fit in nicely.
Well played indeed ekster.
yeah. well played. And ada didn't play great, she had a lot of "well couldn't have been this" statements that are obviously completely wrong and absolutely can't be in a game like this.
I disagree with Ant on the number of mistakes you made, logically. The end "mistake" isn't really your fault. It's an emotional part of the game and it's a technical play that you have to have knowledge of to play correctly.I was watching Ada's posts and analyzing it... the only thing I can say is that he went after KrisT like a blood hound and didn't let up. That, from my cheap seats, was a mistake. That being said, first game? Mad props.--flickr | Of faith, power and glory
you'll make mistakes.. that ironically is the only absolute :Peven though it's not a crazy game... all games are the same that you can almost never be sure of anything.... there is logic to the game and it can be sorted out, but for the most part you really can't know for sure. Look at the mafia even... they didn't know if they had a doc or cop... they guessed.
Can we get a sex confirmation? I see "Alicia" as part of the name and a kitten and theink "she". Others are referring to "he".Or we can refer to you as "it" in future games.
it's not the number of mistakes he made, it's his thinking behind them. Like he even said, he thinks in absolutes, and you just simply can not do that.
Congrats Ada for a great game it could have gone either way after Sav's fuck up.That is why we newbs must unite!--"Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
mistakes will be made, its how you view the game that makes you a better player
Depends on which board we're talking about despite the fact that I am a guy, most know I am a guy, there are a select few, especially over on the WoW and PC Gaming forums like to perpetuate the myth that I am in fact a woman and it never ceases to confuse and confound new posters over there.
But Gbcue is a girl!
don't mistake me for being an ass about my comments. I was exactly like you and even though I ended being right 90% of the time and got my 'bloodhound' nickname... I still had to learn that there was simply things going on that even how sure I was about someonel, I didn't know all the facts :P

Don't feel bad. When ekster and I get together, beautiful babies are born and the town's best laid plans are torn asunder.
Well played.I don't think the no-kill idea was a good one, but you still won it.
We didn't think it was either, but it was the more fun option.

Betty Buckley in The Old Friends
Buckley plays the rich, desperate, conniving, love-starved, selfish alcoholic Gertrude Hayhurst Sylvester Ratliff, and her performance is as rich and layered as any of her award-winning musical theatre outings. In fact, The Old Friends marks Buckley's best non-musical stage performance to date and makes this writer hope this is just the first of many Southern women the Fort Worth native will tackle.
Buckley, who shares the stage with such gifted stage veterans as Lois Smith, Hallie Foote and Veanne Cox — all terrific here — is never less than captivating, and her work as Gertrude is so committed that it's hard to believe how much I disliked a character played by an artist I so admire. That said, it is to Buckley's credit that she is also able to convey her character's vulnerability, the depths of her despair and the fear that propels her often-egregious actions. There may be no excuses for Gertrude's shenanigans — especially her destruction of Sibyl's modest home and belongings — but Buckley manages to make a three-dimensional woman out of a character who could be played as a one-note villain. The second act bedroom scene is a tour de force for Buckley, who lays out her nefarious plans, only to recoil from rejection on all sides.

There are few things more exciting in the theatre than being surprised by one of your favorite artists. Just when I thought I had seen the full range of Tony winner Betty Buckley's extraordinary work, I was enthralled by her dynamic performance in the world premiere of Horton Foote's Texas-set The Old Friends, which recently opened at New York's Signature Theatre.

Well, that's all for now. Happy diva-watching! E-mail questions or comments to firstname.lastname@example.com.
