This stuff is awesome! I first bought it 3 years ago at Target and now it's impossible to find anywhere but ebay. I have extremely thin nails that won't grow because they're so weak and fragile. Peeling is a huge problem as well. Almay 5 Days To Grow is the only thing that has ever made a true difference in my problem nails! These are so portable I use it periodically throughout the day like one would use lip gloss or something. My only complaint is that the roller ball dispenser doesn't work as well as it should. Regardless, I will continue to buy this product as long as I can find it!
Almay Five Days to Grow Conditioning System did NOTHING for me and my nails. To put it simply, it doesn't work. First off, I used Almay Five Days to Grow Conditioning System faithfully for a five day period. When I didn't see results, I used it another five days. I used it in the morning after my shower and at night before I went to sleep. I *never* skipped application, and followed the directions. Almay Five Days to Grow Conditioning System didn't improve the strength of my nails in any way. I broke 3 of them during my 10 day period (pretty average) and my nails peeled away. Just like they always did. Absolutely no difference.
I found Almay Five Days to Grow Conditioning System completely ineffective.

Calendar of upcoming events, rallies and town hall meetings.
In a heated discussion, the House Education Committee dealt another blow to universities' "local control" when it approved a bill and two resolutions that protect religious freedom for some.
Questionable legislative tactics moved HB 4246 through the Legislature and made the bill law today with Gov. Snyder's signature. The Michigan Employment Relations Commission (MERC) was set to meet today to deal with the University of Michigan graduate research assistants' petition to unionize.
The Education section of the Huffington Post is looking for videos from educators detailing the moment they knew they could inspire others--whether it's teacher to student, mentor to mentee or friend to friend.
The latest legislative news provides reasons for supporting the Protect Our Jobs campaign to amend the state constitution and protect our collective bargaining rights.
It's been our message all along—to ensure student success and to turn around struggling schools, the education community has to work together. And right here in Michigan, Romulus Middle Schools is proof of that.
Despite the warnings that Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) scores released publicly last week would be drastically impacted by a new grading scale, state Department of Education (MDE) officials are now saying that Michigan elementary and middle school students showed improvement in their math and reading scores.
This morning, the House Education Committee reported out SB 619-623 and 709-710 with amendments that differ from the original Senate-approved bills.
Next month, the Department of Education (MDE) will submit a waiver request that proposes changes to how adequate yearly progress (AYP) is measured in Michigan.
Valiant efforts by Indiana House Democrats couldn't stop their Republican majority from getting their way with anti-union, economy-killing, right-to-work legislation.
The Senate's so-called education reform package (SB 618-624) is still being debated in the House Education Committee. On Wednesday, the Committee took up SB 621, 622, 709 and 710.

.- With only 33 days to go, Canadian Catholics are geared up for World Youth Day 2005. To date, more than 6,200 Canadian youth have registered for World Youth Day 2005 in Cologne, Germany, up 50 percent from WYD 2000 in Rome, reports the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops.
The largest Canadian delegation is from the Archdiocese of Montreal with more than 900 pilgrims, reports Sr. Francine Guilmette, FMA, co-ordinator of the archdiocesan WYD Office.
Almost 30 Canadian bishops — including the country's three cardinals — are expected to attend the international youth event, Aug. 16-21.
The Canadian Catholic press will also have a strong presence.
Fr. Thomas Rosica, who was national director of WYD 2002 in Toronto and is now CEO of Salt + Light Television, was in Cologne recently to finalize television coverage arrangements for the Canadian Catholic network, EWTN and the French-language arm of the CBC, called Radio-Canada. The three broadcasters will share a platform in Cologne.
Several diocesan papers have also made arrangements to have reporters on site.

Several local residents were among the 450 dental volunteers – including 125 students – at the Virginia Dental Health Foundation's Mission of Mercy project in Wise County, Va., last month.

Over the years, lifelong Chester resident Otha Lee Taylor, 73, has witnessed many changes on a one-mile stretch of road that included his family's 9.3 acres and home, which faced the road known to the locals as "the Pike" or the 301(Jefferson Davis Highway).
The dedicated rail line that will be constructed for high-speed rail will not directly affect Forest and Pamela Fenner's home, but the resulting road construction needed to eliminate at-grade crossings will.
Former Virginia Gov. George Allen held a book signing for his recently published book What Washington Can Learn from the World of Sports as a prelude to Tavern Talk, the Chesterfield Historical Society of Virginia's new fundraising project.
U.S. Rep. J. Randy Forbes will host a job fair with area businesses in Chesterfield County on Wednesday, Aug. 11, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Lloyd C. Bird High School, according to a press release. The job fair is free and open to all constituents who are interested in learning about available jobs with area businesses.
Local artist Marti Fann will be exhibiting at the Chester Library in August. Recent Works, a collection of mixed media paintings, will be on display Aug. 7-31.

A little off topic but....
I have a couple of �friends� - although if you spent more than 5 minutes in their company you would question that term � who have known each other for years.
I've known them since I was about 7. Growing up in the country regions of NSW in a town called Broke (yes its true � do a Google:) there weren't many kids around and they both had siblings who were much older so they were both growing up sort of as the only �child� in their family.
James I guess was the more obviously cool kid one � academically gifted and was always into sports � swimming was real passion even when he was 6 or 7 and he had hopes of getting into it competitively later on life.
Michael was also intelligent but was not quite as outgoing and tended to not be as much of a class clown as James so didn't get as much attention. What I DO remember about Michael was that he was just a really caring, kind kid who had his own funny sense of humour and would always be there no matter what you needed.
You could see that Michael idolised James and they were thick as thieves
When it came to going to high school �in town� (in Australia high school starts at 12'ish years old) they were both looking forward to a new adventure. By that age they physically looked much different � Michael's Mum had opened a convenience store in the small town and he spent much of his time working in the store repacking shelves and eating a lot of lollies by the looks of him!
Over the summer before high school started Michael had packed on more weight � I remember him talking about being really nervous about high school and being picked on but he knew his mate James would look out for him � we were all going to the same high school so we assumed there would be safety in numbers.
The first day of high school dawned and as James and Michael got on the bus they just seemed a little weird with each other � James was poking fun at Michael's new weight gain � in good humour � but he just wouldn't leave it alone through the whole first trip to a new high school.
Within just a few minutes of the first lunch time starting, kids started to pick on Michael about his weight. Puberty seems to trigger the mean gene in many kids.
James was straight in there and made sure that Michael was kept out of harms way. It continued like this I guess for quite a few months but the awful thing to see was the change in James.
As those terrible teens hit James still defended Michael in public but I could see that James was starting to get embarrassed about being around Michael and I would hear James harassing Michael about his weight and how he needed to do something.
It got worse over the years � Michael didn't give up on the friendship (I guess they were set to be friends for life and he would often tell James he �wanted to be him when he grew up�) but James always seemed to be at Michael about his weight, his clothes, his hair � there were days when the friendly banter got pretty nasty and I really felt sorry for Michael having to put up with it.
He was publicly bullied every day and then James would be in his ear every morning and night about being fat, about looking awful, sniping and picking at him at every chance.
As they grew older they remained in contact but the bullying just seemed to get nastier and more personal � James was on a mission it seemed � I just couldn't understand their relationship but who knows what defines a friendship I guess.
Michael ended up being quite a loner in his adult life because of his weight � many was the time I would encourage him to go out but he always some excuse or other - but James never allowed the friendship to dwindle or to disintegrate � I mean they were buddies and hung out all the time but the basis of their friendship really became more about James feeling good about putting Michael down.
James did really well for himself - had carved himself out a very successful career and family quite early on � he'd used his academic talents well and had become what society would deem a balanced and successful individual
But his achilles heel seemed to be his friendship with Michael - you could see it - at parties, at dinner � every time I saw them there was a constant barrage of criticism from James and Michael just took it. I just did NOT understand why they remained friends.
The bullying just seemed to get worse over time � I'd heard that at one stage Michael was so depressed � I guess over his weight battle � that he attempted suicide in his early 20's .
Michael didn't actually tell me about this � we were all out one night very drunk and James as usual was picking on Michael about something or other and then I overhead James laugh to himself and quietly tell Michael he was such a loser he couldn't even manage to suicide successfully.
I was devastated and I made it my mission to try and break up this toxic friendship � how could someone who was apparently a best friend be this cruel to his friend who was clearly suffering deeply.
Michael really hit bottom after the suicide attempt � he started to drink heavily and it seemed like every time we spoke he was either hung over or drunk. This went on for years into his 30's and 40's.
Gambling started to take hold as well and whilst he was earning a decent living he threw most of it away .
I never really understood � the Michael I knew was an amazing human being, full of love and compassion for others but he just didn't seem to be able to find any love for himself.
James and he remained in their bizarre friendship throughout this time � James seemed to take some perverse delight in Michael's downward spiral.
In the end I just let it be � it wasn't up to me to try and fix this broken relationship I guess.
Fast forward to today. I was doing some New Year calls to friends and decided to give Michael a ring and see how he was - after quite a few years.
Everytime I spoke to him previously I always managed to include some comment about him ending the friendship with James � move on for Gods sake � enough is enough.
I finally asked him what the deal was � why the hell he and James were still friends after this many years and he told me.
And he told me.
He had no one else that understood him. He had no one else that really understood what he was going through. Because even though James was forever picking on him, bullying him and never left him alone about his weight he was the one person that had stuck with him through thick and thin. Because James was the only person that Michael felt that he could be himself with � while many of us saw the terrible way that James treated him there was an underlying bond that kept them together.
But � thank God - they had parted ways only a few months ago after Michael finally stood up to him and told James that he was not about spend another 50 years being bullyed by someone and they ended their friendship.
I asked Michael what actually happened � what was the thing that made him finally ditch James.
And he told me.
He finally accepted that he could never be James � that he was meant for a different path and no matter how much he tried to be James, emulate James, be the typically normal, succesful human that James was � the standard to which society says we should aspire � it was just wrong.
He was himself � a caring, loving man who had never allowed himself to be just him, a man who had never stopped and seen the good in himself.
A man who was so broken by his weight, his depression, the constant bullying, the inability of others to understand that the comfort of food, the numbness of drinking and the artificial highs of gambling were all better than facing the pain. A man who spent his entire life battling the scars from the abuse and hate that so many had piled upon him because he looked different. A man who never tried to just be with himself, who never stopped to wonder what could be if he simply made peace with who he was � if just allowed himself be himself.
And now he was ready to accept that he was someone who had worth. Some one who, at his core, was a compassionate, caring loving man who only saw the good in people and who trusted to a fault - no matter how many times he was beaten down by others. He could always see that at their essence everyone wants the same thing. To be recognised as beings of worth, to be respected and to be allowed to just be who we are.
He had finally started to seek peace within instead of trying to find comfort from hiding and eating and slowly destroying himself.
He was finally ready to give in and just let himself.... be.
And yes � Michael and James are ME - James the bitter unfulfilled me that has never been happy and Michael the overweight me who never lived up to my own expectations.
I am the person who continued to believe that James' path was the one I should travel and that Michael's path was the one I would forever be stuck with.
I am the person who allowed James - myself - to bully me to the point where I was almost snuffed out of existence and spent most of my life pretending to others that I was fine.
And I am now the person that is starting to understand that the bully in me is wrong � there is more to me than just the fat that has defined my actions, my relationships and my life for so many years.
I have sometimes questioned why, in my late 40's, I was given an opportunity to work in the middle east. The circumstances that bought me here were odd - working for a small ticketing company in Sydney in a middle mgt position and suddenly here I am in Dubai because they decided to open one other branch halfway across the world and myself and 2 other people were sent to get it going. Huh?
I strongly believe in the fact that everything happens for a reason - and I have sometimes questioned what bought me here and away from home.
And only now am I starting to see the why.
Of all the places in the world, I end up in a place where drinking - while available - does not mean you can pick up a bottle at the pub (a what?) and go home and drown. And where gambling is illegal.
Too coincidental I think - someone out there is looking out for me.
And after 3 years of wondering why I am really here I am starting understand. I have somehow been given a chance to hit the pause button on my old life, stop, take a breath and look at where I am.
And only now, after so long, am I finally able to feel - that's all - just feel. Feel all that pain and anger and hurt. And be ok with it. And be able to accept it and start to move on from it.
The weight of all of those years is starting to lift off my shoulders and finally - at nearly 50 - do I feel I can start to just let myself ... be who I am.
To let myself just...be.
So to any of you who may have stumbled across this blog and seen some of your life in mine � stay true and know that you too have a path to be travelled and you are a person of worth...whether or not you know it yet.
Thanks for reading.
To those of you who told me at the start of my journey that all my excitement and energy and over exercising might just be the honeymoon period and to take it cautiously my sincere apologies.
I do believe I responded in my head with a few �whatevers� and smirked to myself there was no WAY this was a honeymoon period � this was for LIFE!!!!!
OK OK � you were right � the honeymoon lasted about 2 weeks � and I didn't even get to go anywhere exciting like Tahiti OR any of the other benefits of a honeymoon (!).
But � after falling down and feeling low and blue for a few weeks I am readjusting my attitude and am starting to feel much more connected to what I am trying to do.
Yes there is still that whiny annoying little kid in my head who occasionally stamps his foot and wants to know WHY I shouldn't be able to lose 8 kilos a week, living off celery and exercising 3 hours a day but he's starting to get the message.
Through the good fortune (if you can call it that) of having a lot to lose AND being a guy I have managed to lose about 2.5 kilos this week just from willpower and applying myself � that kind of weight loss per week won't last but its nice to get the kick start which means I am almost now 10% of the way to my goal (queue whiny impatient brat complaint along the lines of but that will take FOREVER).
As for exercise � I tried too hard at the start and just sickened myself of walking and huffing and puffing too quickly. Am getting by on a little every other day and I know I will get back into it properly when I am ready.
So � it maybe Day 44 but I am back at the start � in a good way this time � and its actually OK.
Spark on:)
A short blog because it would seem I am actually trying to do more than just sit at the PC! Is it possible that I may actually try to get a life - I have 2 social things setup for today so thats a great start towards my goal of getting more social.
Starting to get that spark back and fighting off the blahs - and it feels good.
I have a lot of weight to lose so I can be very good for a day and lose a kilo - which happened this morning and onto another good looking day - one step at a time as they say.
Right then - off to clean the HUGE living room windows - that will definitely count as my cardio for today.
Have a great day Sparkfriends:)
Taking shortcuts and the easy road has been your thing � if there seems to be an easier, faster, probably riskier, way of doing it you will grab on with both hands. Fad diets, quick fixes � all resulting in eventual weight gain.
There really is no alternative to losing the weight � if you stop now it will just be another battle in a year or 2 when yet again you are over yourself and just need to do something. You may even be heavier than you are now.
And you may fail that time, wait a couple of years and try again.... and again... again
So take a short cut and do it this time- you will save yourself years of being miserable, years of feeling uncomfortable in your own skin, of buying clothes that you hate because they are so big, years of constant self loathing, of looking in the mirror and grimacing at your yourself and your body, years of avoiding small chairs and high stairs, years of hiding away and eating garbage that your body yet again has to deal with.
So really � whats the alternative � THERE ISN'T ONE. You either keep trying or you stay miserable and end up dying unhappy.
Kinda grim but true.
Lose the weight � do what you have to. And if you hit a plateau or feel despondent just keep doing SOMETHING to keep you in the right mindframe � maybe you won't lose for awhile but your head will still be in the game. Fake it if you have to.
You are here for a reason � whether you know it or not � and the right time to take action � ANY action - is now.
And if you don't feel motivated to do it then spend time motivating others � eventually you will get back on track because you will be reinforcing to others exactly you know needs to happen for yourself. And you may even find a truth in there somewhere that you didn't even know you knew.
So � yes � this time � take shortcut and save yourself years and kilos of misery.
Don't give up � don't EVER give up � because everyone deserves to be happy, healthy and being the best they can be � OK?
How my days seem to be rolling lately.
Its about 5:00 a.m., pitch black and I am resigned to not getting back to sleep. By 5:15 the coffee is brewed and its on to Spark.
Pop into to as many friends as possible to say hi and read what going on for them - seems like Bootcamp is the flavour of the month at the moment!
On to the Wii to get some calories burnt - I WAS walking for about 45 minutes a day but - I hate to say this - my thighs were rubbing together so much that I ended up with major thigh burn that would not go away - TMI? - and my feet seemed to be feeling the pain of it so had to find something else to do for awhile.
Breakfast, fiddle around, brush teeth, fiddle around, have shower - right - procrastination washed away for the day.
Onto trading for the day.
Lunch time rolls around and I have been trying to have dinner for lunch and a smaller dinner so I make the time to cook a wholesome and fairly healthy lunch.
Fiddle around, watch some tele, fiddle around - yes I know but I can just procrastinate so well!
The afternoon slump hits hard - I am running on less sleep than I should so try to have a nap which just doesn't work and I am feeling a tad groggy and underwhelmed by about 6:00 p.m. This is generally when my work day should be starting to peak with NY Markets opening so I have to maintain focus which has been hard lately and results in bad decisions being made.
I get bummed about not trading well but....
WOW - even I am bored TYPING this - it must be excruciating to read!
In a nutshell - every day starts well but I seem to fade by late afternoon lately and run out of steam resulting in a highly carbed dinner (hence my recent toast blog:)
But - ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
Starting again today - no more - Bert has been harassing me since NY and its time that he shut the hell up and moved on (Bert - better known as the blanket of fat that accompany's me where ever I go).
Kicking into gear and today will be a good one:)
Have a great day all!

Top notch service. Nice chill out pool, great facilities. Location is not so bad, in fact its better than staying in the tourist districts as you get to see some different parts of the city and getting around is a breeze by tuk tuk and the BTS skytrain. Highly recommended!

The hostel was quite isolated. It would have been ok if the staff could have been helpful with organising tours but they weren't that great. The wifi was pretty poor on the second floor

One of if not thee best hostels I've stayed in. The staff are awesome and happy. Every time I stepped into the lobby they would come to me with free fresh cold water. The bedding is comfortable and changed daily. They make awesome coffee and also a range of breakfast lunch and dinners that use top quality ingredients. The garden is lovely. only thing was there isn't much to do in the area it's definitely a good place to start a trip in Thailand or just to unwind relax. Thanks for my pleasan stay

Refill Now is an oasis in Bangkok. The trade off is the location. If you want a beautiful hostel that's more like a hotel in a quiet neighbourhood than this is the place to stay. But it's not close to the BTS so getting around is a bit difficult. Everything else about this place is awesome though!

Governor Patrick joins Lieutenant Governor Murray, families, advocates and legislators to sign H. 3825, "An Act Requiring Certain Information Relative to Down Syndrome be Provided to Certain Parents and Families" in the Governor's Council Chambers. (Photo credit: Eric Haynes / Governor's Office). View additional photos.
BOSTON – Friday, June 22, 2012 – Governor Deval Patrick today signed H. 3825, "An Act Requiring Certain Information Relative to Down Syndrome be Provided to Certain Parents and Families." The bill requires care providers to provide educational information to parents who receive prenatal and postnatal Down syndrome diagnoses.
"This legislation gives parents additional resources to make informed decisions for their families," said Governor Patrick.
The legislation requires parents who receive a prenatal or postnatal Down syndrome diagnosis be provided with up-to-date, evidence-based, written information. The bill also requires these materials be culturally and linguistically appropriate and include information about educational and support programs.
Governor Patrick was joined by Lieutenant Governor Timothy Murray, legislators and members of the disability community at the signing.
"We strongly support the sharing of useful and timely health information with all patients," said Lieutenant Governor Murray. "This bill will provide expecting families with critical information reviewed by medical experts and also takes an extra step to ensure expecting parents have the appropriate support and resources."
"This bill is about providing the most accurate and up-to-date information about Down syndrome," said Representative Tom Sannicandro, the bill's sponsor. "I am proud to see it signed."
The bill directs the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to make the above-described information available to all persons or facilities that render prenatal and postnatal care or genetic counseling and mandates that the information include physical, developmental, educational and psychosocial outcomes, as well as life expectancy, intellectual and functional development and treatment options.

Oct. 24 (Bloomberg) -- Returns for oil tankers hauling 2 million-barrel cargoes of crude on the industry's benchmark route climbed for a seventh session as a glut of the vessels shrank.
Daily earnings for very large crude carriers, or VLCCs, on the Saudi Arabia-to-Japan voyage advanced 33 percent to $4,866, according to the London-based Baltic Exchange. That's the highest level since June 29, according to the exchange, which calculates income without adjusting for potential speed cuts to save on fuel costs.
Returns "continued to inch higher on the back of healthy activity and a tighter position list," Norwegian investment bank Pareto Securities AS wrote in an e-mail today.
Income for VLCCs on the benchmark journey turned positive Oct. 20 after almost eight weeks of negative returns stemming from a glut of ships that overwhelmed demand. There were 90 of the ships available to load oil in the Persian Gulf over the next 30 days as of Oct. 21, down from 103 the week before, according to Pareto.
VLCC charter rates on the route increased for a 10th session, gaining 2.6 percent to 52.24 Worldscale points, according to the exchange. That was the highest level since June 27.
Port Tariffs
Worldscale points are a percentage of a nominal rate, or flat rate, for more than 320,000 specific routes. Flat rates for every voyage, quoted in U.S. dollars a ton, are revised annually by the Worldscale Association in London to reflect changing fuel costs, port tariffs and exchange rates.
The price of ship fuel, or bunkers, climbed 30 percent from the start of the year to $661.54 a metric ton, data compiled by Bloomberg from 25 ports worldwide showed.
Earnings for aframax tankers, each able to haul 1 million barrels of crude, in the Mediterranean Sea slid 6.2 percent to $52,815 a day. The drop was the second in a row after returns reached a 2011 high on Oct. 20 because of delays in navigating Turkey's Bosporus strait that curbed vessel availability.
The Baltic Dirty Tanker Index, a measure of shipping crude that includes vessels smaller than VLCCs, dropped 1.1 percent to 840, the exchange said.

So, what's your minimum "good shift" standard? - page 3
I'm a pretty new RN, had to float to another unit for nightshift last night (our census was low on the home turf). So, after reporting off, finishing up, know that everyone was breathing and that a nurse had spot checked them... Read More
- 1Feb 6, '12 by nguyency77As a CNA, I would say my shift is good if:
1) The shift I happened to be working isn't right after certain messy coworkers.
2) I finish half an hour before my shift is supposed to end-- every patient is in bed, content, clean, and full.
3) All of my ADL charts are finished. Sometimes my coworkers chart their stuff on the wrong shift column (charting ADL for that morning but writing in the "Evening" boxes) and it drives me nuts.
4) Trash has been emptied.
5) No call lights.
6) Showers are completed and charted.
7) Vital signs all done.

What are Shirataki Noodles?
Shirataki noodles come from the root of the Konjac plant grown in Japan and China. They are thin, low carb, translucent traditional Japanese noodles that are composed of a dietary fiber called glucomannan. They contain very few calories and carbohydrates. Best of all, the Shirataki noodles take on the flavor of any sauce or spice that you combine them with and are a great addition to your meals.
Benefits of Eating Shirataki Noodles
Shirataki noodles slow digestion and prolong the sensation of fullness and are an essential part of any weight loss program. Replacing one meal per day with our noodles will dramatically lower your total calorie consumption.
Suggested Use
Drain the package and rinse thoroughly in a strainer or colander for about 1 minute. Lightly boil or microwave for 1 minute. Use as you would regular cooked noodles. Starting in the Attack phase, you can combine Shirataki noodles with any Dukan Diet approved foods to make a stir-fry, soup or to mix with a sauce of your choice.
Refrigerate after opening.

For all of paddlekind. 0
Being that the calendar for July comprises of such hotly anticipated storewide releases as "Starcraft 2" and "jack all else", I figure that now is a good time to redirect my attention to the downloadable market. I had originally felt like I was missing out on some unique experiences and concepts, but aside from some business involving flowers and cats shooting yetis, not really. The same kind of marketing one-upmanship that Sony and Microsoft continually engages in happens on the online realm to...4 out of 4 found this review helpful.
Shatter Review 0
One thing that I have noticed in this console generation is the trend of reinventing arcade classics. Much like what Geometry Wars and, well, every Tower Defence game that came out a year ago did for those genres, Shatter adds to this by changing up the old ball breaker formula. While it doesn't entirely revolutionize itself, it does enough to separate it from the rest. Shatter plays a lot like the old Breakout and Arkanoid games. Meaning, you control a paddle and must break blocks with a ball...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.
IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT THE KILLER SOUNDTRACK YOU KNOW!In 1986 Japanese developers Taito introduced Arkanoid to the gaming world, quickly becoming the much treasured and loved classic that it is today. Based upon Atari'sBreakout series of the 1970s, it tasked the player with using a small round ball to break colourful blocks in an attempt to achieve the highest scores. Since then developers around the world have reiterated this much adored gameplay formula, adding their own unique mechanics to help i...10 out of 11 found this review helpful.
Short game experience but worth replaying. 0
It's a good game at a good price, go buy it. Thanks for reading the review. Seriously though, Shatter is what I consider the evolution of a traditional brick-breaker game. You control a ship that has a shield that works as a paddle and ammo in the form of ricochet cannon balls. You move through a variety of levels, each with multiple sub-stages and a boss fight at the end of each level. What makes this game unique are its suck and blow mechanic, electric shield, and power-up weapon. The suc...2 out of 3 found this review helpful.
Perfect for 15-30 minute chunks 0
Trying to explain how shatter works is not easy. The best thing I can say about shatter is that it constantly changes things up. First off, the music is superb. The music alone is worth $8 bucks in my mind. The game has you play vertically, then horizontally, and then in a circle for which you move in the bottom third. Every world has a boss battle which are really enjoyable and a bonus level. I think I was looking forward to the bonus level every world because the balls start moving really fas...2 out of 3 found this review helpful.
possibly the best psn game 0
This game is a must buy! 8 bucks is a steal for this game. There are 10 worlds with about 5 stages per world. The bosses are very cool since they are very different from each other some may be an octopus blocking the ball with its legs or it might be a clock that rebuilds it self. It is very addictive game that any ps3 owner should buy....0 out of 2 found this review helpful.
Meh - sorry can't think of better title 0
The developer behind Shatter is New Zealand based Sidhe Interactive. Sidhe's most notable game is the multiplatform game GripShift. Which was an original puzzle racer platformer game. round != fun Shatter in other hands lends a lot from Pong, Breakout or Arkanoid. Which should be in some form familiar to any gamer. This is of course a basic block-breaking action. Shatter comes with some new additions and updated graphics. Platform for my Shatter experience was PC and more specifically the Steam...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
Shatter Review 0
Shatter is a block breaking game on the PlayStation Network that brings back fits of nostalgia that then surpasses those thoughts. You'll have to go through several different levels destroying all the bricks as well as facing off against bosses. You'll have to collect the falling fragments to power yourself up as well as collect the power ups to power up your ball.Graphically the backgrounds look amazing. The bricks all have a very unique look to them. I do have to say that there are some backgr...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
A (brick) smashing good time 0
Shatter is, at a glance, just another Arkanoid clone with excellent production values. But to say that would be like saying Geometry Wars is just another Robotron clone with those same values. The point is, that's selling the game short. What Shatter really is is a brilliant new take on the Arkanoid formula. A strong competitive component, cool new gameplay mechanics, and great production values are what make up this gorgeous brick-shattering good time, and they all come tog...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
This Download Will Shatter Your Expectations 0
Have you ever played Breakout or Arkanoid? Don't worry, I haven't either. Most reviews of Shatter have compared it to brick-breaking games of the past, but I've decided to judge it on its own merits. This PSN download definitely draws from games like Pong, Breakout, and Arkanoid for inspiration, but it's so much more. Instead of simply hitting a ball back and forth to break blocks, you'll find yourself using the effects of gravity. You control a small ship that can reflect balls back ...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
Come for the soundtrack, stay for the everything else. 0
Let's not dance around the obvious. Shatter is part of the Arkanoid/ Breakout family tree. However I must say it is the best and most modernized Arkanoid-esque game I've ever played.What sets this game apart? Well it's the fact that you can suck and blow (I'll explain). Your paddle you play as can shoot out a ball to break up bricks but can also suck and blow air to manipulate the trajectory of the ball. However blocks are often loosely floating around and the sucking and blowing mechanic does w...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
A very short review of Shatter 0
Did you enjoy playing Arkanoid of one of it's many clones ? Do you like electronic music ? Will spending 8$ on a game prevent you from eating tomorrow ? those are the only questions you should ask yourself before purchasing this great downloadable game that take a new spin on the arkanoid formula. The closest comparison is what Geometry Wars did with the classic "twin stick shooter" games. Unfortunately there is no multiplayer modes in this game and it does no have a demo available. 5/5...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
Shatter - Review 0
Review from http://bngames.basicallynothing.comShatter is a Playstation Network exclusive downloadable game, that is very much the Pong of the future, only lacking holograms. For $7.99 you are certainly getting your moneys worth out of this brick breaker. Story: Your a sci-fi super futuristic….paddle….shield..thing……with a super laser needle gun Presentation: Shatter reminds me alot of Geometry Wars on the Xbox 360. It has a similar aesthetic, but not as plain. You bounce a glowing yellow "...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
Sucking and blowing in a Breakout clone, huh? 0
Shatter is a critically-aclaimed Breakout-styled game, with some extra little additions, released by Sidhe on the PlayStation Store. The idea of the game is quite simple. You've got a stage, add some bricks, essence of paddle, and a pinch of balls, and you have the basic premise of Breakout-style games. However what sepeates Shatter from the other brick-breaking games is that there are some additions here which can change the gameplay immensely. Firstly, you've got a "suck" and "blow" mech...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
Breaking through the bricks 0
Reviving old and forgotten genres of games seems to be the new thing as of late. We have Geometry Wars reviving the duel-stick shooter genre, Braid and Trine bringing back 2D platformers and well… whatever other old lost genre. Shatter is the newest attempt at this, with Sidhe Interactive attempting to bring back the long forgotten and dormant brick-breaking genre. Some of you may remember past games like Breakout and Arkanoid being major games in this genre. So how does Shatter hold up? Sh...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.

10 Reasons to Stop Being a Jerk and Drink a Fruit Beer
Alcohol by volume: 8.85%
If it's made with pressed grapes, it must be wine, right? Not in Portland, it doesn't. The Northwest-style sour ale produced by this pub-and-barrel-house brewer blends blonde and wheat ales that were barrel aged for nearly a year before aging the mix on fresh-pressed white grape must for another three months. What does that make? A beer ridiculously flavorful enough to be drunk out of wine glasses. It's not as dry as all this wine talk would suggest, nor does it have the same bite as what you'll find coming out of nearby Willamette Valley vineyards. For lack of a better description, it's like a white grape wheat beer or, perhaps more fittingly, grape cider. While the slight sour flavor keeps it from being cider sweet, it's still surprisingly refreshing for a beer of its heft and is a great warm-weather treat out of a chilled bottle.

- 1Dec 9, '13 by t_tkimbroughQuote from schnookimzi wouldnt say that work is taken away. if anything where i work its more. due to the fact that everything is in the computer now its till not 100% most times doctors request appointments for days they are not even in clinics then we have to call around and try to find out what days the doctors are actually there to set the apointments for the doctors. when it comes to other others its pretty much the same. everyone seems to think going computerized solves everything but it really dont. we have been live for 3 years now and its never been fully up and running. seems its more COMPUTER downtime then ever.It seems that it's literally the only job in the hospital where work is being taken away from them due to the use of computers and doctors entering their own orders, while everyone else constantly has to do more and more and more with the same number of hours in the day.
- 4Dec 9, '13 by imintroubleI love/love/love our unit secretaries. Before we went EMR, I was amazed at what they could do. The organization. The detail. Juggling 4-5 admits all at once. My head would have exploded.
Since we went EMR, I'm just as amazed at what they can do. I don't know about any other hospital, but where I work they're invaluable.

Since we went EMR, I'm just as amazed at what they can do. I don't know about any other hospital, but where I work they're invaluable.
i think i speak for all unit secretaries...........thank you for believing in us. we work hard.
- 0Dec 9, '13 by brandy1017It seems the hospitals are cutting unit secretaries and making them function as CNA's. They are needed and indispensible, but frankly they barely make a living wage. I honestly don't know how so many workers are able to pay the bills and keep a roof over their head! Why do the CEO's get millions, but the workers get peanuts! It's a sad state of affairs in America!
- 0Dec 9, '13 by mostdesired3My first healthcare job was as a unit secretary. I LOVED my job and its the reason why I wanted to become a nurse.
- 2Dec 9, '13 by PD82Im a pct AND unit secretary in my unit with 17 beds. Vital signs-and charting them, blood sugars, showers, bathroom assistance, admits, discharges, break down and set up of rooms, transfers, charting orders, answering pt call lights and telephone, etc etc etc.....
My position was new, so when I started I was thrown into the tigers den and had to create my own routine. Ive been at it almost a year, and not to sound cocky but I am good at my job and can juggle multiple tasks at an given time. I love the nurses I work with and I think they are an amazing team.
I feel sorry for those who see US's as lazy or dispensable, that just makes the rest of us look bad. A hard working US/PCT can be a lifesaver.
- 1Dec 9, '13 by taydianI love having a unit secretary. I used to work evening shift at my previous job so there was no need for a secretary. But now I work day shift at a new job. Last Friday, we had so many call-outs campus-wide, including our unit secretary. I'm still pretty new there and I haven't fully learned every little thing at the job. I was charge nurse and the phones kept ringing and I had to make a lot of phone calls as well. It sucked. It was good in that I need to experience things like that to learn, but holy hell it wasn't fun.
- 1Dec 10, '13 by Glycerine82, CNAQuote from schnookimzYeah, thats insane! I'm cross-trained to work both and got 1.00 more because of it. The nurses used to love it when I would work because I could jump up and help or sit down and put orders in. They eventually made it so that all CNAs had to learn to do the job, although many did everything they could to get out of it. I found it really stressful, and the attitude I would get when I would call someone to tell them about something a pt. needed was just awful! I think a lot of the time the person on the other end would forget that I work the floor too, so I knew what was a reasonable reason for saying "can't do it, call the nurse" and what wasn't!Our unit secretary's were paid 5-6 dollars an hour more than the nurses aides. They were even paid more than the LPNs. If the nurses aides cross trained to work as a unit secretary they only got an extra 1 dollar per hour. Due to this experience, I feel like we can do without this unskilled labor while the nurses aides are bending over backward to be overworked and abused.
- 1Dec 10, '13 by Glycerine82, CNAQuote from babygirl0124I do both but never at the same time. I would either be scheduled to work secretary or to work Aide. This way they could pull me for either position in the event of a call out. I know both jobs inside and out and often had whoever is working secretary call me to ask questions. I love it too. It can be really under appreciated, in my opinion but I think the nurses on this forum are talking about the secretarys who sit at the computer printing coupons all night or are on facebook. Some of us do our jobs, but at least where I work there were a few who didn't.Well Well Well Im a unit secetary have been for 8 years now. I love my job and the nurse, cna's and doctors i work with. Although sometime it gets very hetic. Due to the fact i work the busiest shift (3pm to 11pm) we deal with a lot. On one of the post that was made it referenced cross training the cna to do a clerk job. honestly in the hospital i work in that will never work. Most times the clerks are the go to person for the floor. True enough we are covering some time 2 to 3 units in a shift. Yet We still are able to know whats going on. If im working the whole floor which is 3 different units holding 80 patients. there is never a time when anyone comes to me asking if the patient went for a test or is off the floor. Most times the nurses are so busy with their patients that they rely on us so much if we were not that i just wonder what will happen.
when it comes to the cna's they are over worked to to add more work to them for just $1 more doesnt make sense to me. But again who am i. I know my job and i do it will. I really hate for people to bash clerks i feel until you are placed in our position you have no room to talk. Im a mother, full time student and a full time worker and i make it do what it do. I love it.
- 1Dec 10, '13 by SparklesMedicI've was a unit secretary years ago in a dialysis unit. I was also a pt tech. As a pt tech I had a max of 6 patients to attend to at any given time. I truly enjoyed the interaction and did my job well. As a US I had 160 pts including all shifts. It was before computers and I did all the ordering for everything from supplies to lab work, all the chart maintenance, keeping nurse schedules, patient schedules, arranging pt transportation, finding pts who didnt show up, sending or taking patients to the hospital if needed, taking labwork to the lab, taking Dr's notes when asked, holding wound sites and a myriad of other responsibilities. All on $5.10 at the time. It was hectic, it was too much and I loved every minute. I took pride in keeping that unit running smoothly. I have much respect for US who work their tails off and make it work!

I just stayed a couple of nights recently in Broadbeach. The apartment I stayed at was perfectly equipped. Internet was working flawlessly. The kitchen was well designed and easy to use for my basic cooking skills. Room size was excellent. The high point for me was the view. From the 29th floor, I could see the beach, the waves, sunrise and of course, the rain at this time of the year.
Looking down from the balcony, I could also see the outdoor pool. A good 25min to the Gold Coast airport, it was worth staying there. Easy parking at the underground parking. I will definitely go back.

On Monday, the Arcade Fire released two music videos for a new single, "Reflektor," their first off the forthcoming album of the same name. One was a straightforward YouTube spot, directed by Anton Corbijn and featuring the band members wearing bobble-head masks.The other, more headline-grabbing one, was billed as a "short film" and "virtual projection" and made in collaboration between the band, filmmaker Vincent Morisset, and a team from Google helmed by Aaron Koblin.
The song is great: The toe-wiggling influence of the record's producer, LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy, is nicely evident, and the production's stunning. But there's an uneasy, fascinating, and probably intentional contradiction bound up in the Google-affiliated interactive clip for the tune. With it, the Arcade Fire has dramatized the central tradeoff of the Web as we know it.
You've got to use Google's browser, Chrome, to view the video—and to get the full experience, you must click "Allow" to let Chrome turn on your webcam. You're also urged to tether a smartphone or tablet to your computer with a cable and provided passcode. For those willing and able to jump through these hoops, it works something like this: The video begins to play, and the little green light of your web cam clicks on. Wave your phone around to control the contours of the screen, adjusting shadow, focus, and reflections with your movements. As interactivity goes, the experience is not all that thrilling—we play with light and filters across a static surface. But the music video has long been a fairly stagnant form, unchanged in its essentials since The Beatles' first experiments with A Hard Day's Night and "Rain," so it's cool to see the Arcade Fire offer (not for the first time) a responsive and dynamic take on the genre.
What's strange about this high-tech, high-art visual experiment, though, is its Luddite soundtrack. "Reflektor" is a song about getting off the Internet. "We're so connected, but are we even friends?" Win Butler sings, puncturing the notion that social media sites like Facebook bring us together. Though Mark Zuckerberg and his Silicon Valley friends preach the power of machines to promote kinship and closeness, it's not a notion of intimacy the band is buying. Butler's lyric "We fell in love at 19, and I was staring at a screen" sounds like a lament, expressing skepticism at the notion that two people in separate rooms, typing or Skyping, can be a worthwhile kind of love.
The anti-tech bent of the lyrics are furthered by Morisset's filmic interpretation. For the clip's protagonist, a female Haitian dancer played by Axelle Munezero, the Internet exerts a kind of control: She dances like a marionette while we tweak the way her body refracts light. When dozens of points of light pour from bright holes in her face—like a thousand little screens all wired to a single point of origin, and to one another—her face wears the screen gazer's blank expression. There's a simple magic here, and the permutations of the bright overlay we direct is a little like the old experience of watching shapes flare and disappear inside a bonfire.
But these points of connection—between the light points and her features, between her movements and ours—become sinister. A brigade of darkly clad men, their black suits reflecting constellations of a million little screens, swarm and surround her, beaming her with the same energy we played with moments before. All that connectedness becomes a tool for control, coercion, subjugation. And then comes the film's least subtle critique. A shiny tablet is held out to Munezero, and she smashes it. On my tethered iPad, the words "BREAK FREE" appeared, and the touchscreen went all spiderwebbed with cracks. And after that, the tethered phone does nothing anymore—only hangs there on its string, a dead appendage, connection broken.
BREAK FREE. It's an apt slogan for the Arcade Fire, whose successive records celebrate different aspects of the power of refusal. Funeral enacts a walking away from the crimes and failings of one's parents; Neon Bible fused the slick tinctures of megachurch teachings with the militant declamations of the hawkish Right, and skewered both; The Suburbs rejected consumerism, scouring the strip-mall horizon for a peaceful place beyond the sprawl. Reflektor, then, may well turn out to be a record that derives energy from its attempt to break the digital manacle—a call to turn off, tune out, and drop off the Google Map.
