Revision as of 09:00, 15 November 2012
This article describes how a simple Windows Phone game can be created using Visual C# and XAML.
Note: This is a community entry in the Windows Phone 8 Wiki Competition 2012Q4.
Windows Phone 8
Windows Phone 7.5
This article describes how I created my first simple Windows Phone game: "Colour match". The article covers:
- How to create simple menu
- How to use Geometry component in XAML
- How to use image
- How to create animation
- Navigation within different game screen
- How to use IsolatedStorage to persist game information
The game play is simple: The user is shown a text and a color box and you need to tell if color name in text and color in color box matches or not. Below are my final screenshots:
When you create WP8 application using the Visual Studio templates, it will create MainPage for you. This is the page that will shows up when user launches application. For my game I used main page as my game menu.
First thing I wanted in my game app is to have Full Screen feature. To do so, I did not removed Status Bar it was fine for my case, so I just removed StackPanel element named TitlePanel in MainPage.xaml that contains the Application name and page title. This will remove the application title and page name from page.
If you want to hide Status Bar then you can set shell:SystemTray.IsVisible to false in the XMAL page.
x:Class="PhoneApp1.ScorePage" ....
shell:SystemTray.IsVisible="True"> <- change this to show/hide Status Bar
After the main page is as per my requirement, I wanted to add Game Title page and buttons in my menu screen. To get feel of XAML element I decided to create game title using XAML only, rather than using image.
I wanted to draw Two rectangles one above another and wanted to draw text over each rectangle.
To make text label one above other I used StackPanel, which acts like Row,Column element in QML. Then added to grid layout that contain text element.
Following code achieve the same.
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical"
Margin="71,202,61,302" Width="324">
<Grid Background="#FF9165B9" Height="120">
<TextBlock Text="Color"
Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextTitle1Style}">
<Grid Background="#FF631919" Height="120">
<TextBlock Text="Match"
Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextTitle1Style}">
And to complete my menu I needed Buttons. I added buttons in XAML and and added event handler. To add event handler add event handler name in click property and add same method in C# code. In following code onStartGame() is my event handler.
<Button Content="Start Game"
Following is C# code for onStartGame event handler. In this method I am using Navigation service to launch my GamePage that contains game logic.
private void onStartGame(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/GamePage.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
You can add Name to this element and refer them in C# code using same name. Like following:
<TextBlock Name="colorName"
Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextTitle1Style}" >
colorName.Text = "test";
How to use Geometry component in xaml
My GamePage layout is almost similar to MainPage. There is game score label at top, two buttons at bottom. But in middle this time I used Path element to add Rectangle geometry in XAML.
Following code shows, how rectangle geometry can be added and how to layout text and rectangle one over another using grid layout.
<Path Name="textBlock" Stroke="Black" Fill="Gray">
<RectangleGeometry Rect="0 0 450 150"></RectangleGeometry>
<TextBlock Name="colorName"
Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextTitle1Style}" >
There are also EllipseGeometry, LineGeometry, PathGeometry and other for drawing different geometry. Following code show how to draw circle.
<Grid Background="LightCyan">
<Path Stroke="Maroon" StrokeThickness="8" Fill="Green">
<EllipseGeometry Center="250 150" RadiusX="150" RadiusY="100" />
How to use image
By now my game screen is ready. But I wanted to display specific image regardless of the correctness of the answer given by user.
You can use image element in xaml to display image. Following code shows how to display image using xaml.
<Image Name="answerImage"
I was required to change the image dynamically, according to user's answer. Changing image source dynamically using code is little more involving than XAML. I could have used to Image element in XAML and show, hide then according to user's answer. But I wanted to do it manually to show how that can be achieved.
Following code shows how to change image's source using C#. Code will show correct or wrong image based on user's answer.
Uri uri = null;
if (isCorrectAnswer)
uri = new Uri("Assets/correct.png", UriKind.Relative);
uri = new Uri("Assets/wrong.png", UriKind.Relative);
StreamResourceInfo resourceInfo = Application.GetResourceStream(uri);
BitmapImage bmp = new BitmapImage();
answerImage.Source = bmp;
How to create animation
Now that I am showing images for correct and wrong answer, I wanted to show some animation when image is displayed to user. I decided to add opacity animation to image to fade in over the time.
Windows phone provide Storyboard class for this purpose, just like QAnimation class in Qt SDK. I used DoubleAnimation to animate opacity property of image over the time. I think this class is similar to QPropertyAnimation.
To add opacity animation, I added Storyboard element in PhoneApplicationPage.Resources, by using following code. Here I am changing opacity of answerImage to 1 from 0, over period of 0.5 second and I wanted this animation to happen only once.
If you want to perform this animation 2 or 3 times you can change 1x to 2x or 3x, or you can change it to Forever to loop animation continuously.
<Storyboard x:Name="opacityStoryBoard">
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetName="answerImage"
From="0" To="1" Duration="0:0:0.5"
Completed="onAnimationComplete" />
I also wanted to get notified when animation is complete, for that I added Completed event handler in DoubleAnimation and named it to onAnimationComplete(). Following is code for onAnimationComplete() in C#. In code I am hiding the image and drawing new puzzle.
private void onAnimationComplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
answerImage.Opacity = 0;
Now animation is code is complete, however you need to enable it to make animation happen. You need to use Storybord's Begin method to start animation.
I already showed how to navigate to another page using NavigationService. But what if you need to pass some data to new page. There are several ways to do so, I am using the easiest of them.
When we launch new page, we provide Uri to NavigationService, we can add query string to this Uri that will be passed to newly launched page and the launched page can retrieve this query string and process it.
Following code shows the same. This code is used to launch game over screen (ScorePage) when game is over. I am passing score using query string.
String destination = String.Format("/ScorePage.xaml?score={0}", score);
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri(destination, UriKind.Relative));
Now on second page, we need to add onNavigateTo handler, that is called whenever page is launched. Following is my implementation.
protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
IDictionary<string, string> parameters = this.NavigationContext.QueryString;
String scoreStr = parameters["score"];
int highScore = getHighScore();
int score = Convert.ToInt32(scoreStr);
if (score > highScore)
To close this page on Button press event, you can use GoBack method of navigation service.
private void onGoToMenu(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
However, for my game above code will display GamePage as GamePage launched the ScorePage, not MainPage which I wanted to display when user press "Go to menu" button on ScorePage.
I don't know how to solve it, but I used following logic. On GamePage I added OnNavigatedTo() handler and checking if game is over or not. If game is over then I call GoBack once more to go to MainPage.
protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
//check if game over
if (puzzleNumber == 20)
How to use Isolated store to persist game information
Now my game is almost complete, but I wanted to save high score to file. We can use IsolatedStorageSettings class to store the game setting and other information persistently. Its quite similar to QSettings.
Following code shows how to save information to IsolatedStorageSettings.
private void savaHighScore(int score)
IsolatedStorageSettings settings = IsolatedStorageSettings.ApplicationSettings;
settings["highScore"] = score;
Following code shows how to get information back from IsolatedStorageSettings.
private int getHighScore()
IsolatedStorageSettings settings = IsolatedStorageSettings.ApplicationSettings;
int score;
if (settings.TryGetValue<int>("highScore", out score))
return score;
return 0;
Some general utility functions
To generate random numbers, you can use Random class to generate random numbers. Following code shows basic usage.
Random random = new Random();
int random= random.Next(100);
To format the string, you can use following code.
firstLine.Text = String.Format("Your score : {0}", score);
To convert string to integer.
String scoreStr = parameters["score"];
int score = Convert.ToInt32(scoreStr);
To messaure time take for certain activity.
DateTime startTime = DateTime.Now;
TimeSpan elapsedTime = DateTime.Now - startTime ;
double miliSecs = elapsedTime.TotalMilliseconds;
Final notes
So this is all, This is my first windows phone application and just started to learn Windows Phone development. I hope this will help others like me to start working on Windows Phone. File:PhoneApp1.zip is source code for this application.

BERTHOUD - Berthoud Town leaders will spend the next few weeks deciding whether they want to dissolve their police force and hire Larimer County or completely restructure their current department.
At a meeting held Tuesday evening, the town board mulled over the options but opted out from making an immediate decision.
The town will also have to decide whether it wants to continue staffing its town with officers 24/7.
If it wants to and decides to hire Larimer County to step in, the town will have to pay the county close to $1 million.
No firm figures were released showing how much it would cost if the town just restructured its force.
It's believed the town would save money by hiring the county instead.
The only thing that wouldn't change is the school resource officer position. Berthoud still plans to have an SOR regardless of what changes it makes.
Current Berthoud Police Officers could lose their jobs either way. If the town restructures its force, it's considering making every employee go through a new test as well as additional training.
All of this is happening because of a controversy surrounding former Berthoud Police Chief Glenn Johnson and former Berthoud Police Officer Jeremy Yachik.
Last October, Yachik was arrested on child abuse charges after video surfaced of Yachick allegedly beating his daughter. Berthoud Police Chief Glenn Johnson was accused of covering the incident up.
Not long after his arrest, Yachik was fired by the town of Berthoud. Glenn Johnson resigned amid his allegations in mid-December.
"Let me just start by saying on that side over there, you have an excellent police department. We went through a bump. A pretty big bump. But we can overcome that. All of the officers who are here we know that we don't make that much money. I think we're OK with that. Actually, we are OK with that. I'm OK with that," Berthoud Police School Resource Officer Pablo Vasquez said.
The town hasn't made a final decision yet. It could take weeks, if not months for the board to reach a final outcome.

MILAN (AP) -- German Denis scored a hat trick as struggling Atalanta stunned nine-man Roma 4-1 in the Serie A on Sunday.
Guido Marilungo put Atalanta ahead in the 10th minute before Denis scored his first goal in the 19th.
Roma gave itself hope when Fabio Borini pulled one back shortly afterwards.
However, Denis struck again two minutes after the interval and Pablo Osvaldo was dismissed for an off-the-ball incident. Denis grabbed his third in the 66th as the Argentine took his season tally to 15.
Roma had another man sent off eight minutes from time when Marco Cassetti saw red for dissent.
Roma remains fifth, ahead of the rest of the weekend's fixtures, while Atalanta is still seven points off the relegation zone after Lecce beat 10-man Cagliari 2-1. Siena also won, routing Palermo 4-1.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.-- For the third consecutive meet a JU school record was broken as new bests were established in the pentathlon, 60 meter hurdles, 800 meters, and distance medley. The Dolphins enjoyed great success at the talent-filled Sykes & Sabock Challenge Cup in State College, Pa. winning four events along with several season and career best marks being set.
Senior Charlene Charles dominated the field to win the pentathlon and improve on her own school record by tallying 4,049 points. She won four out of the five events, with victories in the 60 meter hurdles, high jump, long jump, and 800 meters. Charles finished nearly 400 points higher than the next closest competitor.
Sophomore Shanique Walker set her second school record this season by winning the 60 meter hurdles in a time of 8.37. She now holds the JU all-time best performance in all of the indoor hurdles events. Walker also jumped 40 feet nine inches to finish third in the triple jump.
Senior Bienna Freeman broke her own record by over a second to win the 800 meters by posting a time of 2:08.17. She was able to hold off the second place finisher by .61 seconds to claim the victory. Fellow senior Joane Pierre also ran 2:12.95 to finish sixth.
The team of LaTonya Payne, Shadaey Campbell, Joane Pierre, and Freeman finished fourth in the distance medley with a record time of 11:36.48. They beat the previous record by almost six seconds.
The Dolphins claimed a victory in a field event as well as sophomore Taylor Story jumped a season best 19-06.25. She, along with Charles are the only two people in the A-Sun to have jumped over 19 feet this year. Courtney Walker jumped 18-08.50 to finish fifth while freshman Kaitlyn Taylor recorded her collegiate best and finished eighth with a jump of 18-03.75. Story also recorded personal bests in both the 60 and 200 meter dashes. Her 7.79 was the 15th fastest time in the 60 meters while her 24.91 was good for ninth overall in the 200 meters.
"We had a very good meet," said Dolphin head coach Ron Grigg. "Certainly this was the best collection of team performances that JU has ever had in one day. We had so many highlights it would be hard to mention them all. Our goal as always moving forward is to get a little better each week. We still have ample time to get even better prepared for the ASUN Championships in a few weeks."
In addition to the overall victories and school records, a multitude of Dolphins recorded their best performances of their careers.
Throwers Akeela Bravo and Sara Schunter both had new career highs in the weight throw and shot put. Bravo's 43-11.25 mark in the shot put was a new indoor career best and was good enough for eighth place in the event while her 53-11.75 in the weight throw was also an indoor best. Schunter broke the 40 foot mark for the first time in her career in the shot put when she recorded a throw of 40-01.50. She also improved on her career record in the weight throw with a 49-01.50 toss.
The sophomore pair of Campbell and Alexis Taylor set new personal marks in the 400 meters. Campbell's 56.08 was good enough for seventh place while Taylor's 57.62 was the fastest time she has ever recorded in the indoor event.
Sophomore Sarah Bailey ran the fastest mile of her career when she recorded a 5:04.76 to finish 13th.
As a team, JU recorded an impressive 61 points to finish fifth overall.
With their nonconference schedule completed, the Dolphins will now turn their attention to the Atlantic Sun Championships taking place on February 22 in Johnson City, Tenn.

Girl Scout promotes healthy living to youth to earn Gold Award
BEAUMONT, Texas (Oct. 1, 2010) – Girl Scout Ambassador Jennifer H. held a week-long healthy living workshop for children ages six to nine to earn the Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council Gold Award, the highest award a Girl Scout can achieve. Less than five percent of girls who join Girl Scouts earn this recognition.
"I learned that most kids don't know that even a little exercise can go a long way," says Jennifer, a senior at Monsignor Kelly Catholic High School. "I also learned that I have a ton of friends that were there and willing to help me make my event a success."
Earning the Gold Award is a significant honor that requires recipients to demonstrate outstanding leadership skills, career planning, community involvement and personal development. It takes more than 100 service hours and two to three years of intensive work to complete the award requirements, which include planning and completing a project that is a service to the community.
"I chose this project because I've noticed that with new technological innovations, most kids are staying inside to text on their phones and play on the computer all day," explains Jennifer. "I wanted to make a difference in my community and tell them that going outside to jump rope or play games for an hour are good activities for your body."
Jennifer's workshop took place at the Sterling Pruitt Activity Center. She led volunteers in teaching the kids stretching, cardio, muscle conditioning and more. She invited a local taekwondo instructor to teach the kids. More than 80 children attended her event.
"Jennifer has always been organized, responsible and hardworking," says Esteban Hernandez, Jennifer's father. "I think it surprised her that the children were excited and actually looking forward to her arrival each day."
As an active member of Girl Scouts, Jennifer has also earned her Bronze and Silver Awards and serves as a Program Aide at twilight camps in her area. At Monsignor Kelly Catholic High School, she is a member of varsity soccer and Key Club and has received several sports and academic awards. Following graduation, she hopes to attend Texas A&M University to study biology.
Girl Scouts of the USA is the world's preeminent organization for girls, with a membership of more than 3.7 million girls and adults. Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. Chartered by GSUSA to provide Girl Scouting locally, Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council is one of the largest Girl Scout councils in the country serving more than 72,000 girl members and 18,000 adults in 26 southeast Texas counties.

Naropa has been leading the way in sustainable endowment investment practices for years. It is Naropa University's policy to invest its endowment assets in a way that is consistent with the Buddhist precept "not causing harm". As an investor, Naropa University believes that it has the responsibility to influence corporate policy through:
- Selecting investments that do not knowingly conflict with this mission
- Constructive dialogue with corporate management as a shareholder
- Proxy voting on shareholder resolutions
In keeping with this overall philosophy, the Naropa University Endowment will on a best efforts basis avoid investment in the following:
- Primary manufacturers of weapons systems (both conventional and nuclear), firearms, or ammunition
- Companies with egregious records of environmental damage – through toxic emissions, mismanagement of hazardous waste, irresponsible use of natural resources, and/or regulatory violations and fines – particularly compared with other companies in similar industries
- Manufacturers of tobacco, alcohol, or gambling products
- Owners or designers of nuclear power facilities
- Companies with pervasive and/or longstanding patterns of discriminatory behavior
- Companies with weak employee relations records, major safety controversies, and/or inadequate benefits
- Companies where their primary business is involved in natural resource extraction unless the company has a superior environmental record compared to companies in the same industry and has been exemplary of "best sustainable practices in their industry".
In addition, Naropa University strongly encourages investment in corporations that are providing solutions to social and environmental problems, specifically companies that:
- Promote consistently fair employment practices and promote diversity through innovative employee benefits and programs, equitable pay structures, safe working conditions, and training and advancement programs for women and minorities
- Show industry leadership in promoting environmental well-being through waste reduction and recycling programs, source reduction of toxic emissions, use of alternative energy sources, sustainable use of natural resources, environmentally-friendly products and services
- Manufacture products and/or services that have a direct positive environmental impact *
- Work to eradicate child labor and sweatshop conditions within all factories (both company-owned and those owned by suppliers) where goods are produced
- Participate as concerned, involved citizens in their communities
- Uphold global human rights and international justice in their operations around the world.
Naropa use an Investment Management company called Veris. Veris Wealth Partners is a national sustainable wealth management firm dedicated to aligning families' and foundations' financial objectives with their mission and values" (Ceres.org)

Just after Democratic lawmakers put a deal on the table, Republican Governor Phil Bryant says it's not going to happen.
"I would say that they're looking at the wrong capitol. They need to be looking at the capitol in Washington. This is a federal law," said Bryant.
That deal was a democratic compromise to GOP leadership in expanding the state's Medicaid program. With concerns over reimbursement payments from the federal government to local hospitals, democrats were asking for legislation to expand Medicaid only if those payments would be reduced or eliminated under a non-expansion.
"The bottom line is that it takes care of those people in the state of Mississippi who we need to take care of, working, voting people every day," said Rep. Robert Johnson, a Democrat from Natchez.
Bryant says the state can't afford an expansion even though the he says the federal government is promising to pay for it.
"I'm not prepared to trust the Obama administration at this time and I'm not going to pass that bill," said Bryant.
Under the Supreme Court's ruling on the Affordable Care Act, known as "Obamacare," states aren't mandated to expanded Medicaid, but rather given the option. That Bryant says, means the federal government can't withhold hospital reimbursement payments for any state not expanding.
"You can't punish us for not expanding Medicaid and if you do we have a legal standing and we're exploring that possibility," said Bryant.
Bryant says if the White House administration is really worried about healthcare, reimbursement payments would not be cut or even used as leverage.
"For Democrats to hold a current Medicaid recipient hostage is just something that should not be done and shame on them for doing that," said Bryant.
Meanwhile, Democrats say all they want is for the matter to at least be brought to the house and senate floors for debate.
"Just get some legislation before us and let's talk about that issue," said Rep. Bobby Moak, a Democrat from Bogue Chitto.

Several homes were hit overnight in Muscatine; neighbors woke up to find vulgar language and symbols spray painted all over their homes and cars.
Neighbors say about five homes were hit in the area along Oak Street and Cottage Street.
They say they came home Saturday night around 7:30pm and woke up this morning to find their homes and property completely defaced.
Now they're looking for your help to find who's responsible.
"Right when I got to here, I saw that and I'm like 'oh my goodness,'" Shannon Miller says of the graffiti on her home and her husband's truck.
When Miller and her family came back from a fishing trip Saturday night, she says everything was fine.
But this morning that all changed.
"My husband came out about 9 o'clock this morning and seen some vulgar language spray painted on his truck," Miller says.
The unwelcome surprises didn't stop there.
"I called the police, walking up to meet the officer, and I noticed on the side of the house," Miller says.
The Millers are not alone. Their next door neighbor's garage was also vandalized.
Across the street neighbors there have been cleaning the paint off their car all day.
"This is actually a very quiet neighborhood, that's one of the reasons we actually moved here," Miller says.
A few houses down, Jim Gibson woke up to his car vandalized.
"Just came down through the window, through the handles, all the way through this back panel," Gibson says of the spray paint on his car.
"Needless to say not a great start to my Sunday morning," Gibson says.
Neighbors say they're upset and surprised this could happen.
"Really? We have to act like children?" Gibson says, "Most of the people doing this are probably adults or wannabe adults and they act like a bunch of kids."
Tonight they have this message for the alleged vandals.
"Leave us alone, find other things to do with your time then wreck people's property and damage vehicles," Miller says.
If you have any information on any of these incidents, neighbors ask that you contact Muscatine Police.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Two teenagers were shot Friday night outside the Landmark Recreation Center in Peoria.

Dolly, the fourth named storm of the 2014 Atlantic hurricane season, is expected to make landfall in Mexico.
An East Texas man was arrested Saturday night after officials say he caused a multi-vehicle accident, then assaulted a firefighter responding to the scene, all while he was intoxicated.
DPS tells us that 33-year-old Jason Horton of Van was driving his white truck when he caused an accident with another vehicle. Horton's truck rolled over as a result of the accident.
Lindale Fire crews responded to the scene and during this process, Horton punched one of the firefighters.
Horton was transported and booked into the Smith County Jail and is charged with driving while intoxicated and assault on a public servant.
His bond was set at 3-thousand dollars. Records indicate Horton was released just after 5pm Sunday evening.
Officials have added that there were some minor injuries to passengers and drivers in both of the vehicles involved in this accident.

(CNS) Burglars smashed the windows of two businesses in a Buena Park strip mall last night. The burglary, which was reported at 9:44 p.m. at a two-story strip mall in the 7700 block of Orangethorpe Avenue, was the second such crime in the area yesterday, police said.
Two beauty supply shops and a dental office were struck at a strip mall in Orange early this morning, authorities said. In tonight's burglary, a barber shop and another dental office were targeted, said Buena Park police Officer B. Hartley.
A television was taken from one of the businesses and police were awaiting responsible parties from the businesses to determine what else was taken, Hartley said.
In the earlier burglary, the storefronts targeted were at The Brickyard Shopping Center, a two-story strip mall in the 1600 block of Lincoln Avenue. They were struck shortly after 1 a.m., police said.
Thousands of dollars worth of wigs and computer equipment worth thousands of dollars were taken from the beauty supply shops and dental equipment of an undisclosed value was taken from the dental office, the businesses' owners told a photographer at the scene.
Buena Park investigators were planning to confer with Orange police to determine if the two crimes were related, a detective told the photographer.

Job for a Cowboy - Entombment of a Machine
Music video for the Death Metal - Progressive band "JOB FOR A COWBOY" (Arizona , United states) http://www.myspace.com/jobforacowboy Lyric It breathes. What stands before us is not a machine, it breathes, it will bleed, and it will sleep. Its body is covered in hundreds of wires. The mouth attempts to speak but, Only murmers collapse from its jaws. With only delayed movements from its figure we all begin to strain. My legs weaken at the site of this damanged program, For this program kept you breathing, it kept you alive. These circuits diffused once more. We kneel and we plead for no mourning ahead of us, Entombment of a machine. So Sleep, sleep among us and hesitate no more. I saw it die --------

PEORIA, Ill.-- A local woman working to give women with criminal history a fresh start may have stepped into the spotlight a little too soon.
Sharon Collins of "One Body One Purpose Ministry" shared with us Sunday her plans to turn this old sorority house on Institute drive into a safe haven.
Collins intends to house 15 women with criminal or drug related backgrounds in the home.
On Sunday Collins said, "The purpose is to work with ex-felons to get them training and get them jobs and get them employable again. Our goal is that when these ladies leave here they leave employed, rooted and grounded in Christ and into their own place."
But these plans came as a bit of a shock to City officials.
2nd district Council Candidates say they had not heard about the plans.
Current Councilwoman Barbara VanAuken said, "I got text messages about it about 10 minutes after the news story aired."
VanAuken says Shannon Techie at City of Peoria Planning says the area has very restrictive zoning.
VanAuken said, "What she has to do is make an application because right now we don't know the intended use."
2nd District Council Candidate Chuck Grayeb said, "There are so many restrictions as to where something like that can go and hoops that have to be jumped through and things like traffic, whether it's consistent with the comprehensive plan for the area."
And members of the Uplands Neighborhood Association say the house has been vacant for about 11 months, partially because of the zoning.
VanAuken says those in the neighborhood just want to know what is going on, "The very first thing I say is have you talked to your neighbors."
And it seems that Collins has not really talked to anybody.
Collins has not yet purchased the house.
On Sunday she said she is depending on funds from the community and local churches to help with the purchase.
She declined to comment on Tuesday.

Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Kohl Kajal Eyeliner Trio
Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Kohl Kajal Eyeliner Trio Reviews
Love these!I'm so surprised at all the negative reviews... My experience with these is actually extremely positive. I have the "Nude Eyes" trio, and use at least one of these every day... I think that one of the reasons many people had bad experiences with these is that they see them and they think "NYX Jumbo Eye pencil"... These are nothing like the NYX pencils, and in my opinion are much better use as j...read moreust eye liners... Since I love them so much, I'll tell you how I use them... I definitely don't use them as shadows or base for shadows... I put my eye shadow primer on, and right after, depending on the colour of the shadow I chose, I'll run one of these over my upper and lower lash line, as close to the lashes as I can manage. When I run them over my lower lash line, I practically run over my lower lashes, but very gently. And then I will smudge the upper line with an angled eye shadow brush. So my eye shadow always goes on after and I try not to touch the lines with the shadow. If they do get sort of powdered over, then I'll just take that same angled brush and run over that spot very gently, just to remove that little bit of shadow... And I swear, these just open up your eyes so much more, and they work great on my bottom lashes that way as well... Not only there is no harsh line underneath my eyes, but it also stays there all day long... These pencils are almost water-proof. Their lasting power is amazing. I wish I could include my before and after pictures in my review, but they really do make so much difference in the way my eyes look, and I also noticed that when I wear my make up that way, I hear more little comments like "Oh, you look nice today" from my boyfriend than I usually do, and that's always a good new for a girl.. So based on my experience with these pencils, I would definitely recommend them. — 9 months, 2 weeks agoNikatron | 132 reviews

DisappointingThought this would be a great product turns out that it really wasn't. Unlike the other reviews mines didn't break but the product itself it's super messy and since it's a thick stick I had a hard time putting it on. 2 hours later I had raccoon eyes from the product smudging all around my eyes.

I've had this belt for almost a year. Most people don't notice it, but those that know the color scheme always think it's cool. It's a great accessory, great conversation piece and an all around awesome way to promote BJJ. The fit is well as expected. After all, it is a d-ring belt. When this one wears out, I'll definitely order another one.

The Vanderbilt Commodores continued a crazy season in the SEC East in 2013, upsetting the Georgia Bulldogs at home, 31-27.
Things looked pretty even early, as the two teams exchanged scores to make it 14-10 in the second quarter. Things looked like they turned in favor of Georgia when Shaq Wiggins intercepted Austyn Carta-Samuels on an attempted trick play and brought it back for a touchdown. Aaron Murray rushed for another touchdown right before halftime to make it 24-14, and it just kind of felt like Georgia had things under control.
As it would turn out, they didn't. The Commodores erased a 13-point deficit in the fourth quarter, retaking the lead on a 13-yard touchdown rush from Jerron Seymour with less than three minutes remaining. Georgia had one last chance with the ball with only 14 seconds left, but it just wasn't enough time for Aaron Murray to put together a touchdown drive.
The typically high-powered Georgia offense has been ruined by injuries, and they were not in vintage form on Saturday. Aaron Murray finished with only 104 yards, no touchdowns, and a pick, and the team averaged only 3.5 yards per carry on the day.
Box Score Hero:
This game didn't exactly feature an offensive explosion, but Jerron Seymour rushed for two touchdowns and churned out 71 tough yards.
Rankings Ramifications:
Georgia came into the game ranked 15th in the AP poll and 16th in the USA Today poll, so they are going to take a big tumble down the rankings.
But Did They Cover?
The Dawgs were 6.5 point favorites at kickoff, so no, they didn't cover.

About Liver Biopsy
This information is intended for general information only and should not be considered as medical advice on the part of Health-Tourism.com. Any decision on medical treatments, after-care or recovery should be done solely upon proper consultation and advice of a qualified physician.
What is Liver Biopsy?
Liver biopsy is a procedure in which tissue samples from the liver are removed and sent for examination and analysis to a laboratory. It is used to diagnose various diseases in the liver. A liver biopsy is also performed to diagnose the cause of liver abnormalities detected in an ultrasound or a CT scan. Additionally, a liver biopsy is done to examine the effectiveness of a therapy that you may be receiving for a liver disease.
What are the different methods of Liver Biopsy?
The different methods of liver biopsy are discussed below:
Percutaneous Liver Biopsy
In a percutaneous liver biopsy, a needle is inserted through the skin into the liver where a tissue sample from the liver is removed for examination. To establish the area of the liver, the doctor taps on the skin over the liver and listens to the sound. This is done to find a dull area over the liver. In this procedure the patient's cooperation is highly critical.
Percutaneous Image-Guided Liver Biopsy
A percutaneous image-guided liver biopsy is performed by inserting a needle into the liver. In this procedure, the needle is viewed and guided by images produced by a CT scan or ultrasound.
Laparoscopic Liver Biopsy
In a laparoscopic liver biopsy, several incisions are made in the abdomen from where a laparoscope and other instruments are inserted to perform the biopsy. The laparoscope consists of an endoscopic flexible tube with a camera that enables the visualization of the liver on a monitor for viewing. A laparoscopic liver biopsy may be done entirely to extract tissue samples or it may be done as a part of another abdominal surgery.
Open Surgical Liver Biopsy
An open surgical liver biopsy is rarely done for the sole purpose of a liver biopsy. It may be done if the liver biopsy is a part of another abdominal surgery.
Transvenous Biopsy
A transvenous biopsy is performed if patients have fluids in the abdomen or blood-clotting problems. During the procedure, a catheter tube is inserted into a vein in the neck which is guided into the liver. The catheter holds a biopsy needle which obtains the tissue sample from the liver.
How to prepare for a liver biopsy?
Before the procedure you should inform the doctor about your health conditions and concerns such as:
Allergies to certain drugs
Medications that you may be taking
Bleeding problems
Heart or lung disease
You may be required to stop certain medication a week before the procedure if it is advised by your doctor.
You may be required to take a small dose of sedative before the procedure.
Duration of procedure/surgery:
Non-surgical liver biopsy takes approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
Days admitted:
Non-surgical liver biopsy liver biopsy is done on an outpatient basis.
Local anesthesia is used for the non-surgical biopsy.
- After the procedure you need to stay in the recovery room for 4 hours under observation. - You may feel some discomfort and pain in your shoulders and back. A pain medication for this may be prescribed to you. - It may take several days for your biopsy results to come out, after which your doctor will discuss it with you.
Risks involved in the procedure include: - Internal bleeding - Injury to other organs like the gallbladder or kidney - Collapsed lung - Sedation complications
After care:
- Patients who have had a sedative should not drive, operate machines, or consume alcohol for 24 hours after the procedure. - The doctor's instructions should be followed carefully. - Some medication should be avoided for a week after the procedure. - You should refrain from vigorous physical activity for a minimum of 24 hours following the biopsy. Contact the doctor immediately if you have the following symptoms within 72 hours after the liver biopsy: - Fever - Dizziness - Pain in the abdominal region where the liver biopsy was performed - Chest pain - Shoulder pain - Abdominal pain - Breathing difficulty - Chills

The Texas Medical Board temporarily suspended the medical license of William Edward Brown, M.D. without notice on Friday. The board stated that the decision was made after they determined Brown 's continual practice of medicine would constitute a threat to the public welfare due to his impaired status.
The Tyler-based physician's current practice is Gynecology Tyler. He first received his medical license in 1978 and has been practicing medicine in Tyler for 32 years.
Brown released a statement regarding the suspension on Gynecology Tyler's website. The physician stated that the Texas Medical Board has yet to notify him about the suspension, and says their reasons for the move are "unclear...and contain several misrepresentations".
It is unknown at this time when, or if, Brown's license will be reinstated.

You may want to think twice about how you dispose of your personal documents.
Identity theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in the United States.
The Better Business Bureau and AARP are sponsoring "Secure Your ID Day" at Wells Fargo Bank in Bismarck.
This event gives the public the opportunity to bring in their personal, sensitive documents and have them shredded for free.
Identity theft is the number one complaint to the Federal Trade Commission every year.
Lyle Halvorson, Communications Director of AARP says it's important to always shred anything that has identifying information.
"If you have a bunch of documents and you try to run them through a personal shredder at home, you know, one sheet at a time or maybe even eight sheets at a time, I mean you're not going to get very far. So for people to be able to clean out their old files and bring boxes of documents here, they are really happy with the service and appreciate it," says Lyle Halvorson, Communications Director, AARP ND.
The next Secure Your ID Day will be in April.
For more information you can go to aarp.org/nd.
