If you were on the fence about whether to pick up the Humble Bundle For Android 2, this should help sway you one way or the other: the bundle creators have added a new game, Snuggle Truck, to the mix. This game puts you in the driver's seat of a truck filled with poorly-secured stuffed animals. The objective is to take what is apparently the least safe route possible to deliver these stuffed animals to their destination without losing too many.

Welcome to the weekly roundup of the best new Android applications, games, and live wallpapers that went live in the Market or were spotted by us in the previous 2 weeks or so.
This edition focuses only on new tablet apps or ones that added tablet support. Regular apps and games are coming soon.
If you love old-school side-scroller fighting games like Tekken, Mortal Kombat, and Street Fighter, then you've probably played one of the many The Kings of Fighters games throughout the years. The series has now made its way to Android, albeit only for a few select devices for the time being.
The Android version of TKoF brings all of the in-your-face gameplay that fans of the franchise have come to expect, including three-on-three Team Battle mode, Single Battle, and Endless Endurance mode so you can really test your skills.
Maybe you weren't waiting up til 4am EST, eagerly anticipating the release of Angry Birds Space. That is what you have us for, after all. If you were, though, you might remember that only one version of the app made it to the Play Store that night: the free version. Later, though, Rovio released "Angry Birds Space Premium," which is the ad-free version of the app. Now, Rovio has released Angry Birds Space HD.
Ever since a hardware manufacturer went to a music festival to announce a video game about birds flying into space, the internet has been waiting for Angry Birds Space to launch. Well, the countdown is finally over, and Angry Birds Space is now stationed at Amazon's Appstore.
As per usual, the game is free if you like ads, or $0.99 on the Appstore for an ad-free experience. Amazon also has an HD version of the ad-free game for the Kindle Fire available on the Appstore.
ErnCon, an awesome game with a strange name, reached version 1.0 today, officially "going gold." The game could be described as a mix between the classic 'Asteroids' and any entry from the chaotic "bullet hell" genre, with some interesting multiplayer capabilities thrown in.
ErnCon's description urges users to "join your allies in the epic battle to retake the galaxy," which could be paraphrased as "shoot everything and stay alive." When first starting the game, a nameless, busty guide will help you learn how to play in a quick tutorial mission.
Giving us perhaps one of the most unique games I've ever played, 4gency released Node.Hack to the Play Store today. The game poses the player as "a digital warrior on the front lines, cracking the world's toughest computer systems for profit." Indeed, the object of the game is to hack through individual nodes to accrue thousands upon thousands of dollars and escape before being destroyed by enemy AI.
The first thing I noticed about Node.Hack was of course its visual style.
Madfinger Games has just rolled out an update to their uber-hit third-person shooter Shadowgun, and this time around they have included more than just some bug fixes. The most significant aspect of the update is a new free expansion called "The Leftover" - check out the trailer:
The Leftover "directly follows the events of the original SHADOWGUN" and features:
- 4 new levels
- New enemy creature
- New gun
- New type of gaming interaction
- New soundtrack
The update brings some new effects and features to the original campaign, as well:
- Camera shakes and bullet trails
- Player can now roll
- Tuned difficulty, weapons, and enemies
- Better, more intensive gaming experience
The THD version of the game (with improved graphics and additional effects to take advantage of the extra horsepower Tegra 3 provides) hasn't yet been updated, and there's no official word as to when it will be.
OnLive, a hugely popular on-demand gaming service which came to Android late last year, announced tonight the release of L.A. Noire: Touch Edition, which Founder and CEO Steve Perlman dubs "BY FAR the highest-performance game ever designed for tablets."
For those unaware, OnLive features 25 other touch-playable titles, some of which have been totally redesigned to support touch interaction. L.A. Noire is the latest title to get a touch makeover and is, according to Perlman, "the highest-performance console video game developed specifically for touch-enabled play via mobile cloud gaming.

Thomas Vanek had a hat trick to lift Montreal to a 6-3 win over the Colorado Avalanche in former Canadiens great Patrick Roy's first game at the Bell Centre as an NHL head coach.
Brandon Prust, who left the game late in the first period with an apparent shoulder injury, returned to score a goal and set up one by Travis Moen for Montreal (38-25-7), which won its third game in a row. Vanek got his first goal in six games since he was acquired in an NHL trade deadline deal.
Trailing by two goals, Roy pulled goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere with 2:20 left to play, but Dale Weise scored into the empty net.
Rookie Nathan MacKinnon scored a highlight-reel goal and Max Talbot and Jamie McGinn also scored for the Avalanche (44-20-5), which lost for only the third time in 10 games. The Avs end a three-game road trip Wednesday night in Winnipeg.
Some wondered how the Bell Centre crowd would react to Roy, who won Stanley Cups for the Canadiens in 1986 and 1993 but later demanded a trade and was on the outs with the organization until 2008 when they retired his No. 33 jersey.
It was clear that all was forgiven when the former goaltender got his first long ovation when he was shown on the scoreboard during the national anthems.
Roy's team responded with a strong opening period.
No. 1 overall draft pick MacKinnon put on a show as he ragged the puck in the Montreal zone for most of an entire shift. Then he got the puck alone in front of the net off a strange deflection and deked Carey Price for his 23rd goal of the season at 18:03.
The Canadiens bounced back in the second, as Vanek tapped one into an open goal after David Desharnais lured Giguere out of his net on a rush at 7:44.
Talbot was parked at the doorstep to knock in a Matt Duchene feed at 9:33, but Moen tied the score at 10:21 with his second of the year and his first since Nov. 22. Prust dove to chip the puck into the middle, where Moen caught it, then did a spin-around move to beat Giguere with a backhand.
Giguere took a holding the stick penalty and Vanek made him pay as he converted a Max Pacioretty feed on a power play for the game-winner at 14:45. Montreal was on the power play again when Vanek deflected an Alexei Emelin shot in at 17:40.
Brad Marchand and Jarome Iginla scored in a 59-second span early in the second period and the Boston Bruins beat the New Jersey Devils 4-2 on Tuesday night for their 10th straight win.
Patrice Bergeron and Chris Kelly also scored and Chad Johnson made 20 saves as the Eastern Conference leaders hurt the Devils' post-season hopes by sending them to their third straight loss.
The 10-game winning streak ties Anaheim for the NHL's longest this season. It is the Bruins' longest since a 10-game run in November 2011, and four shy of the franchise record set in 1929-30.
Patrik Elias and Travis Zajac scored for the Devils, who are now in danger of missing the playoffs for the second straight year and third time in four. Martin Brodeur made 27 saves.
OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — Henrik Lundqvist made 35 saves to become the Rangers' winningest goalie and New York used a four-goal second period to cruise past the Ottawa Senators.
Lundqvist, who made 16 of his saves in the second period, has 302 victories — one more than Mike Richter. He is also one shutout shy of 50 for his career.
Derick Brassard, Benoit Pouliot, John Moore and Ryan McDonagh all scored in the second, with the final three coming less than four minutes apart late in the period. Brassard and Rick Nash each finished with two goals.
Mike Hoffman, Mika Zibanejad, Milan Michalek and Bobby Ryan scored for the Senators, who have lost four straight and eight of 10.
UNIONDALE, N.Y. (AP) — Matt Moulson scored twice and had three points in his first game against the Islanders since being traded earlier this season, and Ilya Bryzgalov was solid in making 36 saves as the Minnesota Wild made the most of 22 shots.
Moulson, an impending free agent dealt by the Islanders to Buffalo in October before being shipped to Minnesota at the trade deadline, scored the first of the Wild's two goals in the opening period and their third in the final frame.
Mikko Koivu had three assists to move past Marian Gaborik for the most points in Wild history with 438.
Bryzgalov earned his second shutout of the season and 32nd in the NHL.
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Sidney Crosby scored his 32nd and 33rd goals of the season and picked up an assist and Pittsburgh's top line led the way in a victory over Dallas.
Lee Stempniak added his first goal since being acquired from Calgary two weeks ago and finished with two assists while Chris Kunitz had a goal and an assist in his return from a lower-body injury. Brandon Sutter scored a late short-handed goal and Jeff Zatkoff stopped 32 shots to win for the 11th time in his past 14 games.
Tyler Seguin scored his 31st goal for the Stars. Kari Lehtonen made 27 saves, but Dallas slumped again on the road.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Anton Khudobin made a career-high 46 saves and Andrei Loktionov and Patrick Dwyer each had a goal and an assist and the Carolina Hurricanes topped the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Nathan Gerbe also scored, and Jay Harrison added two assists for the Hurricanes, who were criticized by coach Kirk Muller after weekend losses to Boston and Edmonton. Carolina was close to a wild-card spot on Feb. 7, but the team has struggled since. They entered the game having lost nine of 12 and are likely going to miss the post-season for the fifth straight season.
Boone Jenner scored for Columbus, which outshot the Hurricanes 19-0 in the third period.
DETROIT (AP) — Gustav Nyquist had two goals and Jimmy Howard made 31 saves to help the Detroit Red Wings hold on to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Jake Gardiner scored on a power play midway through the third period to pull Toronto within a goal.
The Maple Leafs appeared to tie the game less than two minutes later, but Nazem Kardri's goal was waved off because he made a kicking motion to knock the puck in with the inside of his right skate.
The Red Wings seemed to seal the win with 2:33 left when Daniel Alfredsson's wrist shot from the slot hit the back of the net. Toronto, though, pulled its goaltender to add an extra skater seconds later and James van Riemsdyk scored with 1:13 left.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Claude Giroux scored at 4:55 of overtime to lift the Philadelphia Flyers over the Chicago Blackhawks.
Scott Hartnell scored twice and Ray Emery made 23 saves for Philadelphia.
Andrew Shaw and Duncan Keith scored and Antti Raanta made 34 saves for Chicago.
Skating down the right wing, Giroux beat Raanta with a wrister to give Philadelphia its third straight win.
Flyers forward Vinny Lecavalier was involved in two chances that nearly broke the tie in the third. His breakaway attempt with 7:40 remaining was turned away by Raanta's right pad, and Brayden Schenn's almost-goal just over a minute later was waved off when referees ruled Lecavalier touched the puck with a high stick on its way to the net.
CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — Mike Cammalleri's 20th goal of the season midway through the third period helped the Calgary Flames defeat the Buffalo Sabres.
Calgary's Mikael Backlund beat Matt Ellis on a faceoff in the Sabres' end, drawing the puck back to Chris Butler. From the blue line, Butler's shot toward the net was neatly deflected by Cammalleri past Nathan Lieuwen.
Cammalleri has seven goals in his past nine games. Joe Colborne and Paul Byron also scored for Calgary.
Drew Stafford scored for Buffalo, which has dropped seven games in a row.
EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Jordan Eberle had a pair of goals and an assist as the Edmonton Oilers cruised past the Nashville Predators 5-1.
Sam Gagner, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Taylor Hall also scored for the Oilers, who have won two in a row and are 10-4-3 in their past 17 games.
Gabriel Bourque scored the lone goal for the Predators, who have lost two in a row and are in jeopardy of missing the playoffs for the second year in a row. They are nine points out of the last post-season berth in the Western Conference with just 13 games remaining.
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Brandon Pirri scored one goal and set up another in a 17-second span of the second period and Roberto Luongo made 52 saves to help the Florida Panthers snap San Jose's six-game winning streak.
Quinton Howden knocked in a rebound of Pirri's shot to cap a game-changing shift and Scottie Upshall added a goal in the closing minute of the second period for the Panthers, who had lost seven of their previous eight road games.
Marty Havlat and Brent Burns scored for San Jose and Antti Niemi made 21 saves. The Sharks missed a chance to move past Anaheim for first place in the Pacific Division. The teams are tied with 97 points heading into Thursday's showdown in San Jose, but the Ducks have a game in hand.
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Alex Ovechkin scored the tiebreaking goal early in the third period, and the Washington Capitals kept up their playoff push with a victory over the Anaheim Ducks.
Jaroslav Halak made 43 saves in his sixth consecutive start for the Capitals, who have won their past four games at Honda Center. Joel Ward and Troy Brouwer also scored for the Capitals, who have won three straight to pull into an eighth-place tie with Columbus for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
Ben Lovejoy and Mathieu Perreault scored for the Ducks, who have lost four straight home games while falling out of first place in the overall NHL standings.

Everyone's lovable fat drunk uncle from up north has announced that he's going to rehab after a second video of him smoking crack surfaced.
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford was allegedly videotaped early Saturday morning smoking crack in his sister's basement and talking rudely about his opponent Karen Stintz and his wife Renata.
The video was filmed by his drug dealer, who claims to have three incriminating tapes, and is attempting to sell them as a package for six figures, the Globe and Mail reports. In addition to the tape of Ford smoking crack on Saturday morning, there is another tape of him drunk out of his mind from Monday night. A witness described him as acting "like an ass."
Ford's lawyer Dennis Morris said that despite the rehab stint, he is remaining in the race.
"He has to take a break to re-energize because he realizes he has flaws that have to be addressed," Morris said. "Oh yeah, he'd never in my eyes, think of quitting that race."
Ford released a statement saying, "It's not easy to be vulnerable, and this is one of the most difficult times in my life. … Today, after taking some time to think about my own well-being, how to best serve the people of Toronto and what is in the best interests of my family, I have decided to take a leave from campaigning and from my duties as mayor to seek immediate help."
Unfortunately, Justin Bieber, another Canadian, still exists.

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
A handsome, sharp-featured actor who has played everything from action baddies to charming romantic comedy leads, Australian actor Richard Roxburgh became a familiar face to international audiences thanks to roles in such high-profile Hollywood features as Moulin Rouge and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Born the youngest of six siblings in Albury, Australia, Roxburgh's interest in acting wasn't sparked until he became somewhat disillusioned with studying economics (his father was a successful accountant) at A.N.U. in Canberra. An interest in acting prompted the young Roxburgh to enroll in Sydney's National Institute of Dramatic Arts, though it wasn't a successful film career to which he aspired, but one in the theater. He gained a reputation as a talented actor and stage director capable of both classic and contemporary work, and soon found his star rising in Europe as well. The actor had an early supporting role in the made-for-TV feature The Saint: Fear in Fun Park, which showed the stage-oriented actor possessing remarkable onscreen charisma. Though he continued to work on-stage, Roxburgh also began making appearances in television miniseries, and grew increasingly comfortable in front of the cameras. After more supporting roles in such features as Billy's Holiday (1995) and Children of the Revolution (1996), Roxburgh landed his first feature lead in the country & western-themed road movie Doing Time for Patsy Cline (1997) -- a role that earned the rising star an AFI award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. That same year, he charmed Australian audiences opposite Cate Blanchett in the romantic comedy Thank God He Met Lizzie as a reluctant groom whose fantasies about an ex-girlfriend threaten to sour his wedding day. Though Roxburgh's onscreen exposure, to this point, had been limited mostly to European audiences, all of that changed in the early 2000s. Cast as the villainous henchman in John Woo's high-profile sequel Mission: Impossible II, Roxburgh made quite an impression despite his limited screen time. The following year, he made even more of an impact on international audiences thanks to a role as the sniveling Duke of Worcester in Baz Luhrmann's breakout musical hit Moulin Rouge. Roxburgh's later role as legendary sleuth Sherlock Holmes in 2002's The Hound of the Baskervilles courted controversy by depicting Holmes as a drug addict, and, in 2003, he suited up to fight crime once again in the comic book adaptation The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Roxburgh played another famous character -- Count Dracula -- in the eagerly anticipated horror feature Van Helsing in 2004. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

The trailer of Superstar Rajinikanth-starrer Tamil period-drama "Kochadaiyaan", which was supposed to be unveiled at the ongoing Cannes film festival, was called off at the last minute because the team is still working on the final output of the trailer.
"(The) trailer (is) shaping out well. (I'm) working on more surprises. All efforts are going in to release it as soon as possible," posted the film's director Soundarya Ashwin on her Twitter page.
According to a source from the film's unit: "We were all set to go to the festival, but our director was not happy with the final output of the trailer. She didn't want an unsatisfactory trailer to be released at the festival and, therefore, opted out of the festival".
Rajinikanth, who was supposed to attend the festival to promote his film, also cancelled his plans.
"Kochadaiyaan" is touted to be India's first motion-capture feature film made along the lines of Hollywood films "Tin Tin" and "Avatar".
It also features Deepika Padukone, Aadi Pinisetty, R. Sarath Kumar, Jackie Shroff and Shobana in important role. Muisc is by Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman.
The film is being jointly produced by Eros International and Media One Global Entertainment.

"The things that make me different are the things that make me." - A. A. Milne
"These images are part of an ongoing series of portraits of Drag Queens in half drag." Leland Bobbe says about his latest project, which capture both sides of some of New York's drag queens. "With this series my intention is to capture both the male and the alter-ego female side of these subjects in one image. Through the power of hair and makeup these men are able to completely transform themselves and find their female side while simultaneously showing their male side. These are composed in camera and are not two separate images joined together." [via thaeger]
On the hottest day of the summer, I find myself drawn into these wonderful winter images by Zoltan Bekefy. [via Faith is Torment]
Call Parade is an ongoing public art project which is, shockingly, being sponsored by a phone company. Brazilian telecommunications firm, Vivo, gave 100 different artists 100 different phone booths around the country letting them create whatever they could come up with. [via This is Colossal]
Stephen Wiltshire is an amazing artist. Born mute and diagnosed with autism, he lived in his own world until he began to communicate through his drawings. Gradually, with the help of his teachers, he did learn to speak, but he did not stop drawing. He has an incredible ability to look at a subject once (sometimes for just a few minutes) and reproduce it with detailed accuracy. [via Wave Avenue]
To prepare you for your weekend and help you forget the stresses of your week, I suggest you head on over to look at Vassilis Tangoulis' portfolio. It will take you to another place. [via inspire first]

Jason from Boston, MA– Verified Buyer– Top 500 Reviewer
Looks nice, heavy duty. Sleek and modern. The hardware is a bit annoying to deal with. Has tiny screw that are easy to misplace. The installation instructions were unclear.

towel rack
Ellen from Palo Alto, CA– Verified Buyer

Clean lines, solid design
MK from Jacksonville, FL– Verified Buyer
Easy to install and looks great!
Good product, overpriced
Capt Dave from Chicago, IL
The piece is unusual and has good lines. It is well made with quality materials, but it is WAY overpriced. Since I am not a decorating nut, it was an indulgence that I was willing to pay for. The instructions are lost in translation and the company is all but unreachable. Most of the retailers that sell this see themselves as upper crust, enlightened, but mostly they are just jerks. I was fortunate enough to find two retailers that finally help me make sense out of the mounting question I had. Since the template is in mm, it would not have taken alot of thought to make the mounting holes a distance that could have been converted to a usable standard measurement. Had to measure several times and eyeball it as 18.267716535433070866141732283465 inches is a meaningless number.

Augmented Reality
Augment Your Reality with the Horrible Hauntings Collection of Ghosts and Ghouls
When something cool and different lands in our inbox, we can't wait to share it with our readers, and today we have some info on Goosebottom Books' augmented reality book Horrible Hauntings, wherein legendary characters come to life right before your eyes in interactive 3D.
Lionsgate Unveils Gamer's Augmented Reality Poster
Show of hands -- Who here knows what Augmented Reality is? And did you think you'd ever see it used for a movie poster? Well, thanks to Lionsgate, the answer to that second question is a resounding "Yes!"
Capture Ghosts on Your Phone and Nintendo DSI
I'm one of many iPhone addicts. I love the damned thing. It never leaves my side. Sometimes I forget it's a phone too. People who love the Blackberry and all the other similar devices out there feel the same way. The main reason why is that these portables do all sorts of cool shit, and things are about to get a lot cooler for people who use their phones for more than just communication.
Augmented Reality Brings Zombies to Life
Here at Dread Central we love two things in particular: video games and zombies (titties and booze was a close second). When you combine those two things, magic can happen (if you can combine all four, then we're really talking)! Still, I don't think we've ever seen anything as magical as what we're about to show you!

This is not a drill... the biggest band of the 80s is BACK...
Yes, you read that right. Culture Club are back, and they'll be touring the UK at the end of the year.
The Grammy Award-winners fronted by the legendary Boy George have sold in excess of 100 million singles and more than 50 million albums, making them one of the biggest pop bands of the 90s. They were the first group since The Beatles to have three top ten hits in the US from a debut album – how's that for a statistic?
The original line up of Mikey Craig on bass guitar, Roy Hay on guitar and keyboards, Jon Moss on drums and, of course, Boy George, will embark on an 11-day jaunt around the UK from 1 December, including dates in Leeds, Manchester, Brighton and London.
They'll also be going into the studio to record new material, too, for an album to be released in early 2015.
If that wasn't enough, they'll be joined on the tour by special guest Alison Moyet – a renowned musical icon in her own right who's sold more than 20 million records both as a solo star and as half of the influential Yazoo.
Check out a full list of dates below...
Monday 1 December Glasgow The SSE Hydro
Tuesday 2 December Newcastle Metro Radio Arena
Thursday 4 December Leeds First Direct Arena
Friday 5 December Manchester Phones 4U Arena
Saturday 6 December Nottingham Capital FM Arena
Monday 8 December Liverpool Echo Arena
Tuesday 9 December London London The O2
Thursday 11 December Brighton Brighton Centre
Friday 12 December Birmingham National Indoor Arena
Sunday 14 December Cardiff Motorpoint Arena
Monday 15 December Bournemouth Bournemouth International Centre
And, while we're at it, let's have a fond listen of perhaps the band's biggest hit...
Tickets are available from £38.50 and £48.50, except in London where they'll cost £37.50, £42.50 or £55. They'll be available from 9am on Friday 23 May at livenation.co.uk or ticketmaster.co.uk.

RE: Charles B Barnes
Hi Diane, I think your best source of info would be the Seneca Library, they have a lot of info, cemetery books, death & marriage lists, microfilm records, etc. The courthouse is also in Seneca & a good source, I'm not sure if they'd have anything the library doesn't. I think the historical info is at the library also. Good luck with your research, it can be a challenge, but what fun! Luella

Hi Diane, I'm not related, was just adding names to old cemeteries for family to find them. The libraries have the lists of ones buried there, not sure how they get them, I'm sure there can be errors. I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you, sure would be nice to have the family all linked, there are a lot of Barnes buried here. Luella

Edna Elizabeth Taylor Finley
Hello, Cousin!
How have you been?! :-)
Thought you might like to know that I just discovered graves for Edna Elizabeth Taylor Finley and her husband A. Lincoln Finley at Mountain View Cemetery in San Bernardino. I made memorials for them in case you might like to check them out. Do you have any idea what the 'A' stands for? I have seen both 'Adam' and 'Abraham' - but have no real proof of either!
If you have any information or photos for either memorial, would you care to share?
Anything new and exciting on the genealogy, family or rodeo front?
Love 'n hugs,

RE: Cunnie Perdew
Hi Cousin,
Thank you for the photos of Cunnie's and Frank's markers... and also thank you for the cute newspaper excerpt regarding the birth of Frank's child. I cannot imagine how 'Cunnie' could be derived from Grover Cleveland - and am wondering if there was another child who died young that we don't have recorded?
I added this excerpt to the bottom of Frank Perdew's memorial - crediting you. Is that good?
Love, Chloe

A wide-eyed group of 25 boys from Georgetown Cub Scout Pack 384 and Boy Scout Troop 300 took to the sky recently, seeing Georgetown in a whole new way and getting a taste of what it takes to fly a plane. The flights, held at the Georgetown Airport, were run and sponsored by the Young Eagles program, a group of pilots who provide free introductory flights for kids 8 to 18.
Flying was extraordinary, said Cub Scout Ben Richards. Seeing all the parts of Georgetown County and Myrtle Beach was really cool. You could see the SkyWheel in Myrtle Beach and some of those houses in DeBordieu Colony were huge. The pilot was really nice and we had a great discussion. I would love to fly again soon.
The flights were part of the Boy Scouts work toward earning an Aviation Merit Badge. Pack Leader Jeff Pelham added that the flights were part of a bigger picture in scouting.
Like most scout activities, this is a chance for kids to get out of the house to see that theres more to the world than video games and television, Pelham said. There are so many fun and interesting things to do out there!
All the scouts received a certificate of achievement and their flight was logged into the Young Eagles digital log book. The older scouts also earned a personal flight log book, with instructions on how to take free online ground school flying lessons. Once completed, the scouts can take the FAA written flight exam and when they pass, the Young Eagles will pay them back for the test and give them a voucher toward their first hour of actual flight instruction and plane rental.
If one of these boys really takes an interest in flying, this was a great way to get them off the ground, Pelham, a former pilot, said. They save money and meet the folks who really know their stuff.

Let me get this straight. You are saying that Blacks and Hispanics are incapable of restraining their baser instincts. You are a racist. I serve with many Blacks and Hispanics with whom I have served many rotations in combat and I am proud to have them cover my back and they know that I have theirs. I guess "Whites Only" for gun ownership is your idea what America needs. If that young lady had been armed herself maybe both she and Belcher would still be alive.

Is this really the most disastrous Governor in the Bank of England's history?
Everyone is entitled to their opinion I suppose, but Tim Congdon's latest diatribe in Standpoint magazine against Sir Mervyn King as "the most disastrous governor in the Bank's history" is, even for Tim, a trifle over the top.
For starters, King certainly has quite a lot of competition. What about Montagu Norman, whose momentous and disastrous decisions, he once confessed, were guided entirely by instinct? Or how about Gordon Richardson, who seemed to see it as his duty to undermine the Government, or for that matter Lord Cunliffe, who by most accounts was a complete buffoon and whose only lasting contribution to the Bank of England was to stipulate a dress code for women after being pained by some of the costumes he encountered?
In any case, this is a somewhat curious article, because it's mainly about King's supposed conversion to monetarist economics, which as a leading monetarist himself, you would have thought Professor Congdon would approve of. True enough, King didn't start out that way, but you might have thought that in the spirit of the sinner who repents, Congdon would have been quite pleased about bagging another convert, particularly one as eminent as this.
Not a bit of it. King is condemned as pretty much a complete fool for not having realised the eternal truths of monetarism at a much earlier stage. This all seems to go back to the letter King helped pen in the early 1980s condemning the Thatcher government's economic policies, and by implication, the monetary targeting Thatcher advocated. Congdon, it hardly needs saying, was a keen supporter of these policies.
But his real gripe is that King knows nothing about banking, and in Congdon's view has greatly exacerbated the contraction in money with his constant calls for more capital and more write-offs. "It is almost beyond imagination", Congdon writes, "that someone in King's position could, with a straight face, ask the banks both to write off a big chunk of their existing assets (so that they inevitably have less capital) and almost immediately to raise huge amounts of new equity capital (so that they have enough capital to expand their risk assets). But that is what King has been doing in the last few months!"
As Congdon argues, there is obviously a contradiction here, and I would certainly tend to agree that King's very vocal obsession with capital has not helped in calming the banking crisis. No investor is going to provide more capital if he's being constantly told that banks are still essentially insolvent and need much more of it.
Whether this justifies being labelled the most disastrous Governor ever is another matter. Still, only six months to go, and then there's a new man in the job. Poor Mark Carney. He's been so built up, both by the Government and the press, that he can only disappoint.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

THE AGE Newspaper Article of Monday April 10th 2006
Question: I heard a new reporting system is being introduced with the old PABCD grades. Will it be clearer or will we end up comparing our child's learning?
It is true that a new reporting system is being introduced to schools and that letters are being included.
Despite statistics, data and outcomes attempting to provide a guide to what standards or expectations we should reach in our lives, personality, culture, individual rates of development and learning styles mean that no one child will be ready to do the same thing at the same time in exactly the same way. They will not be at a particular level at a particular time simply because it is written in a particular document.
Expectations vary between states and countries. There is no magic standard across the world and standards do not equate to happiness and success in life or learning. They are indicators set by a particular government in particular parts of the world. For example, in some countries, children are not expected to learn formal reading until age seven, whereas in Victoria, it is expected that children will be reading at certain levels earlier.
Reports, therefore, can be misleading and often cause anxiety for parents and children. Reporting often locks everyone into attempting to categorise children into preset standards and expectations rather than providing regular information. This shared information should not just include subject areas but critical life skills such as problem solving, socialisation, expression of emotions, articulation of needs and views.
The designers of the new report have attempted to provide useful information to parents, but a report given twice a year cannot do justice to the processes of learning, the changes within children and the individual nature of learning. Reports tend to have a letter, standard or number that does not necessarily provide meaningful information about the individual gains of a child. For example, one child may receive a D for a subject, which in relation to state averages may look concerning. However, the child may have been unwell, missed school, had a trauma at home, experienced a particular learning difficulty in that area and in fact made greater gains in that subject than someone who received an A. That is significant learning and an achievement for that child, who may not yet have reached a "standard", but their actual learning has been purposeful and is heading in a positive direction.
Any report that indicates where one child is in relation to the supposed average needs to be regarded carefully by parents and not taken as the main indicator of their child's learning. The best type of reporting is the ongoing sharing of information between parents, children and teachers that doesn't just occur halfway and at the end of the year.
From years past, the ABCD system caused great angst and did not ever provide in-depth information or support. You felt great because you received an A or terrible because you didn't. Learning is not about being great or not great. It is a personal journey, which sometimes has its great achievements and its times of struggle.
The very best reporting between children, teachers and parents attempts to capture on a regular basis the essence of a child's likes, dislikes, strengths, challenges, and most importantly provides an ongoing picture of who the child is as a learner, not just what standard they reached. Reporting involves reflection for children, parents and teachers that is based on conversation and examples of learning throughout the year. Successful learning is not about reaching standards, it is about reaching for goals, attaining skills and having each child's strengths and challenges extended and supported.
The best questions a parent can ask in relation to a meaningful report are: "What do you know of my child, what are her interests, her strengths and the things that challenge her? What can we all do to help her to move along her own learning pathway and to maximise her sense of self worth and eagerness to learn?"
With the new reporting system, parents must avoid falling into the trap of seeing a letter or grade and then locking the child into either being good a, not quite good enough. Life and learning is much more complex than an assigned letter given to a child twice a year.
