Most of my work these days is digital and preference is natural light. Almost all of my imagery and art is available as prints, various file formats, under licensing and not all of my work is available here on-line at FAA.

Occasional I get a rush of blood and play with my original art, these get labeled as rendered or rendition. Of course most art can be rendered, modified or customized to your preference including cropping, monotone/color, personal messages, signatures, adding text or textures for personalization.

New Kindle Prices!

New, more affordable paperback editions of RACE AMAZON and BAKER'S DOZEN...the first batch are now available!
I am a huge fan of Kindle, and e-books generally, but I understand that sometimes the feel of a 'real' book in your hands is hard to beat. If you fancy reading these books but have been prevented so far because you prefer to read ink on paper, I hope you will buy a copy...once you have read the FREE samples, of course!
Writing update
In my bio, you will have read about the novels I wrote on my journey to RACE AMAZON. These books came to nothing, or never really got started, other than to teach me how to be a better writer as time went on, which was a vital experience. I have now decided to write one of them into the book that it always needed to be!
So....coming soon....Underworld
As someone who studied screenwriting for a degree, these skills were shelved decades ago. I had a stab at some scriptwriting in my early twenties and there were some positive rumblings but nothing that convinced me to carry on. I have always seen myself as a novelist, and was happy for this to be my writing focus.
As part of my recent review of my body of work, and with the exciting new developments for screenwriters that seem to be emerging at the moment, I have decided to take RACE AMAZON and transcribe it for the big screen. I am very happy with the book and I feel that it could make a great film script, if I get it right!

I have been really busy at work and find myself falling back to my old habit. Generally, I tend to get so absorbed in work that I neglect other areas of my life. The first to go is always fitness and I spend many hours sitting. However, I have finished my all so important work project and decided I wasn't going to let myself go and fall into a long period of inactivity. I was back on my bowflex today and did a 20 minute workout. I have stuck to my diet (mostly) so, hopefully, the next couple of weeks will show some results...fingers crossed.
Just had a tremendously busy week at work. I do a lot of writing on the computer for work, and just became chair logged all week. I got to the point where I actually had a soreness from sitting so long. So today I broke away and did my bowflex biceps and triceps routine and did a lot of extra houswork to get myself moving. I see the light at the end of my horrible work week and hope that now that the weekend looms, I'll be able to pay more attention to my fitness and weight loss goals.
I stuck to my diet all week, but i think that at my age, there is no room for sacrificing any part of my fitness routine. If I don't exercise, I simply don't see any improvement in my weight or body image. It's really hard road in my 50s and I'm still trying to get used to the idea that weight won't just fly off just because I've become serious about it. It is just SO much harder at this point in my life.
Anyhow, will keep on keeping on, because even if it doesn't get a lot better, at least I can keep from getting a lot worse.
I was really bummed out yesterday because I had an emergency project at work that had me bound to my computer most of the day. I didn't log in to Spark people, didn't participate in my challenge entries, didn't log my food intake, nor exercise. Today, I was equally as busy, but I decided I just wasn't going to go off track 2 days in a row. It's just too easy to give everything to work and leave little left behind for me. So I logged in, logged my menu for the day, walked the 20 feet to my bowflex and did a full lower body and abs workout. Now I'm back at my computer but I have the Superbowl on at the same time. I am really inspired by the dedication and heart that these two winning teams have, and it just didn't seem right, if I didn't take some time out to dedicate to my fitness because it really is so important to me.
Happy Superbowl Sunday to all you Spark People!!
Had another great, motivated day today and stayed on track with my diet and water intake. Finally got to try my salsa workout dvd and it was really great...all alone at home and dancing around to rhythmic salsa like a dancing fool. My companion was travelling today, so made dinner alone and really enjoyed being free to cook whatever I wanted. Made some mediterranean rice with mint, feta, tomatoes, and lima beans, and it was delicious. So I'm feeling really relaxed and happy since, with this blog, I have achieved all 9 daily points for February challenge.
I received my copy of The Spark in the mail yesterday and finally got a chance late in the evening to begin reading. I really enjoyed Chris Downie's history, and hadn't really had the chance before to stop and think about why Sparkpeople is working so well for me. It's the sense of community and sharing the ups and downs of what we are all trying to accomplish.
For me, last week was what Chris calls a Spark Streak that started with a high level of motivation. I was concerned that I would not be able to keep it up and tried to think of ways to make myself believe that this time would be different. But then I picked up the book and finally realized why it really is different. I am so motivated to continue my streak right on through the achievement of my goals and beyond. This program definitely has promising consequences for every part of my life, and I look forward to the growing confidence that my little weight loss successes will bring to all parts of my life.
Spark on!!

Unnatural TransformationsPosted by Edward Kmett under Category Theory , Comonads , Haskell , Monads , Uncategorized
1 Comment
Back in the days of HYLO, it was common to write hylomorphisms with an additional natural transformation in them. Well, I was still coding in evil imperative languages back then, but I have it on reliable, er.. well supposition, that this is probably the case, or at least that they liked to do it back in the HYLO papers anyways.
Transcoding the category theory mumbo-jumbo into Haskell, so I can have a larger audience, we get the following 'frat combinator' -- you can blame Jules Bean from #haskell for that.
hyloEta :: Functor f => (g b -> b) -> (forall a. f a -> g a) -> (a -> f a) hyloEta phi eta psi = phi . eta . fmap (hyloEta phi eta psi) . psi
We placed eta in the middle of the argument list because it is evocative of the fact that it occurs between phi and psi, and because that seems to be where everyone else puts it.
Now, clearly, we could roll eta into phi and get the more traditional hylo where f = g. Less obviously we could roll it into psi because it is a natural transformation and so the following diagram commutes:
This 'Hylo Shift' property (mentioned in that same paper) allows us to move the 'eta' term into the phi term or into the psi term as we see fit. Since we can move the eta term around and it adds no value to the combinator, it quietly returned to the void from whence it came. hyloEta offers us no more power than hylo, so out it goes.
So, if its dead, why talk about it?

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

After having owned and operated a large B&B in Northern California for many years I decided to move to Maui. Kihei is the perfect spot for a lifestyle of mixing easy living with spectacular scenery and outdoor activities. The studio is the perfect way for me to offer an affordable vacation to others who appreciate the beauty of Maui. Those who have stayed in the studio through the years have been very pleased. Many have returned again and again and referred their friends to this economical vacation choice.
The Owner purchased this studio in 1988
The Island Surf is in the heart of Maui's vacation paradise. Beautiful world class beaches and parks stretch all along Maui's south shore. Hawaii's climate in Kihei is hard to beat with most days balmy and warm.

Canaccord Financial Inc. continues the revamp of its global investment banking management team with the hiring of a new Asian head with stints in senior roles at Deutsche Bank and HSBC Plc on his resume.
Canaccord named Peter O'Malley chief executive officer of its Asian investment banking operations. Mr. O'Malley had founded his own firm, Kenosis Capital Partners, after working in senior jobs at HSBC and Deutsche, with a focus on natural resources.
He was head of resources and energy banking at HSBC and head of natural resources investment banking at Deutsche in the Asia Pacific region, Canaccord said in announcing his appointment.
The team he built at Kenosis also is coming over to Canaccord, and will work in Hong Kong.
Canaccord, like most investment banking firms, is struggling to turn a profit in slow markets. Still, it has been successful in luring experienced bankers to its growing global operations as Canadian firms have remained more successful and stable than many others around the globe.
Canaccord has named three new regional heads of late. In June, the firm posted Dan Daviau, one of its most successful Toronto-based bankers, to New York to be the new head of operations there. Earlier this month, the company hired Alexis de Rosnay, who had previously worked as a senior banker at Lazard, to run investment banking in the U.K. and Europe.
"Peter's appointment further cements the strength of our platform in Asia and the calibre of our global management team," Canaccord CEO Paul Reynolds said in an internal announcement. "It's another indication of the strong industry talent we're attracting to the Canaccord platform."
In a statement, Mr. O'Malley said that Canaccord's "global platform" will "allow us to better serve our long-standing clients in Asia. Canaccord Genuity's well known expertise in the resource sector and its broad distribution network will be highly beneficial to many of our important clients."

, abbreviated as , is a leading private university located in Tokyo. Founded in 1882 as Tokyo Senmon Gakko, the institution was renamed "Waseda University" in 1902. It is known for its liberal climate symbolized by the motto .
Six post-war prime ministers were Waseda alumni: Tanzan Ishibashi (1956–1957), Noboru Takeshita (1987–1989), Toshiki Kaifu (1989–1991), Keizo Obuchi (1998–2000), Yoshiro Mori (2000–2001), and Yasuo Fukuda (2007–2008). Waseda's literature program counts Haruki Murakami and Tawara Machi among its graduates, as well as Shuji Terayama among its drop-outs.[1]
The alumni also include corporate leaders such as Masaru Ibuka, co-founder of Sony; Lee Kun-hee, former chairman of Samsung; Takeo Fukui, CEO of Honda; Atsutoshi Nishida, CEO of Toshiba; Osamu Masuko, CEO of Mitsubishi Motors; Tetsuro Toyoda, CEO of Toyota Industries; Tadashi Yanai, CEO of Uniqlo; and Kenichi Ohmae, founder and former senior partner of McKinsey & Co Japan. Currently, seven of the Fortune Global 2007's CEOs are Waseda graduates. http://www.mines-paristech.fr/Actualites/PR/EMP-ranking.html.
Waseda University is a member of Universitas 21, an international network of 21 universities that have a particular focus on research.
The university was founded by samurai scholar and Meiji-era politician and former prime minister Okuma Shigenobu in 1882, and was designated as a full university in 1902. It started as a college with three departments under the old Japanese system of higher education.
In 1882, the university had the department of political science and economics, law, and physical science. Along with these departments, an English language course was established, where the students of all the departments could learn English.[2]
Three years later, the department of physical science was closed because it had too few applicants.[3] The department of science and engineering was established in 1908.[4]
The department of literature was established in 1890.[5]
The department of education was established in 1903, and the department of commerce, in 1904.[6]
Much of the campus was destroyed in the fire bombings of Tokyo during World War II, but the university was rebuilt and reopened by 1949. It has grown to become a comprehensive university with two senior high schools and school of art and architecture.
Waseda University started its life as on October 21, 1882. Before the name 'Waseda' was selected, it was known variously as or after the location of the founder's villa in Waseda Village and the school's location in Totsuka Village respectively.
It was renamed on September 2, 1902 upon acquiring University status.
Ōkuma had long desired to create an academic cap so distinctive that someone wearing the cap would immediately be identified as a Waseda student. The chief tailor of Takashimaya, Yashichiro, was called upon to design a cap in three days. Each square cap was stamped on the inside with the student's name, his department, the school seal and the legend, "This certifies that the owner is a student of Waseda". Thus, the cap served as a form of identification, and effectively a status symbol. The cap, with its gold-braided badge, is registered as a trademark.
On October 21, 2007, Waseda University celebrated its 125th anniversary. Okuma often talked about the "125 years of life" theory: "The lifespan of a human being can be as long as 125 years. He will be able to live out his natural lifespan as long as he takes proper care of his health", because "physiologists say that every animal has the ability to live five times as long as its growth period. Since a man is said to require about 25 years to become fully mature, it follows that he can live up to 125 years of age." This theory propounded by Okuma was very popular and often referred to in the media of the time.
In commemorative events relating to Waseda University and Okuma, the number 125 is accorded special significance, as it marks an important epoch. The tower of Okuma Auditorium, completed on the university's 45th anniversary, is 125 shaku, or about 38 m high. In 1963, there were also events to mark the 125th anniversary of Okuma's birth.
Okuma, who twice served as prime minister of Japan, organized his second cabinet when he was 77 and passed away when he was 83. He said, "I wish I had understood this '125 years of life' theory 30 years earlier". He did, however, lead a regular life, and lived fairly long compared to other Japanese at the time.
Waseda University's main campus is located in the Nishi-Waseda district of Shinjuku. The nearest station is , although Waseda is generally associated with on the Yamanote Line.
Apart from the main campus in Shinjuku, there are other campuses around the country:
Undergraduate Schools:
Graduate Schools:
The three-story main auditorium seats 1,435, while the secondary auditorium, located underground, can accommodate 382 people. A seven-story high clock tower stands to the left of the auditorium. The height of the tower, at 125 shaku, or about 38 m, represents the theory of "life of 125 years" advocated by Okuma. The bells at the top of the tower were transported through the Panama Canal from the MacLean Company in Baltimore, Maryland. It was the first time that four bells, large and small, had been used in Japan.
Oval-shaped transom windows on the roof represent the sun, moon, and nine planets of our solar system, and symbolize the "harmony of the universe" both inside and outside the auditorium. The auditorium opened on October 20, 1927, about five years behind schedule, after the Great Kanto Earthquake.
In April 1999, the auditorium along with the old library building were officially designated the first and second historical buildings under the newly-passed Tokyo Metropolitan Landscape Regulations, which aim to preserve buildings representative of Tokyo's history and culture.
The auditorium was designated as one of the important cultural assets of Japan by the Ministry of Education in 2007.
The Waseda University Library, designed by Tachu Naitō, Kenji Imai and Kin'ichi Kiriyama, was completed in 1925. This five-story building, with a total area of 1,195 (about 3,944 square meters), was used initially as the University Library. The reading room was housed in a separate two-story building, with a seating capacity of 500. One of the prominent libraries established at the end of the Taishō period, it has been a symbol of Waseda University to this day, along with the Okuma Auditorium and the Theatre Museum.
The Old Library and the administration building were expanded in 1934 and 1955 respectively. The Old Library stopped serving as a main library, after the New Central Library, located where the Abe Stadium used to be, was completed in 1990. It now houses Sanae Takata Memorial Research Library, the University Archives, and Yaichi Aizu Museum. Sanae Takata Memorial Research Library opened in 1994. It is named after former university president Sanae Takata. Historical and cultural materials on Waseda University are exhibited in the University Archives, and the materials related with Shigenobu Ōkuma are exhibited in the Ōkuma Memorial Room at the Archives. Yaichi Aizu Memorial Museum opened in 1998.In the front hall, visitors are greeted by the masterpiece "Meian", which dates back to 1927. It is painted on the world's largest hand-made washi (Japanese paper), which is 4.45 meters in diameter and weighs about 12 kilograms. It was manufactured by Heisaburo Iwano, the founder of the Echizen paper works in Imadachi-cho, Fukui prefecture. The masterpiece was painted free of charge by Taikan Yokoyama and Kanzan Shimomura, two artists who represented the modern Japanese style of painting. President Sanae Takata asked them to paint a picture for the Library.
The library possesses a unique collection which survived the Bombing of Tokyo in World War II unlike many of its counterparts. The collection is an important resource for the study of pre-war Japanese history and literature.
Other museums and libraries on Waseda campuses include:
The rivalry between Waseda and Keiō University is highlighted by the Sōkeisen in the Tokyo Big6 Baseball League. The baseball series is held twice a year in the spring and autumn at Meiji-Jingu Stadium, and it is considered one of the most important competitions of the year by both student bodies. The Waseda University Baseball Club is the most successful team in the Big6 league in terms of winning percentage, but it has 37 league championships, which puts it second behind Hōsei University.
Waseda University football team won the Emperor's Cup, in 1964 and 1967.
Waseda University Rugby Football Club currently is the reigning university rugby union champion in Japan, reaching the university championships 28 times, and winning fourteen times. Its two biggest rivals are Keio University and Meiji University.
The Waseda University karate club is one of the oldest in Japan, formed in 1931 under the direction of Gichin Funakoshi.[7][8] Graduates of the karate club include Shigeru Egami, leader of the Shotokai school, Kazumi Tabata, founder of the North American Karate-do Federation and Tsutomu Ohshima, founder of Shotokan Karate of America.

Professors who are also Waseda alumni are listed in italics.
Waseda University has had numerous benefactors, including:
Super Free was a registered Waseda University school club organized by Shinichirō Wada, a student at Waseda University. The club would organized parties in order to rape unsuspecting women. The appeal of the these parties was the chance to associate with Waseda University students. After Wada's arrest, the club was disbanded. [16]

Today isn't even half over yet and it's proving to be hilarious. First my stupid dog ran out the front door as I was leaving for my karate class. He's a jack russell shelti mix and is quite a bit faster than I am. With the help of my husband (in a car) and my neighbor's son we caught him.
Luckily I wasn't late for class, because I am insane about being early so I had plenty of time, but pulled my calf muscle chasing the dog...(in my head I'm still cursing A LOT). I am proud of myself one for running as fast as I did, didn't know I had it in me, and two for still going to class. It would have been an real easy out to skip it and use the situation as an excuse, but I didn't.
That leads to the next part of this epic day, class... So it's pretty normal, we warm up even though I was in pain I still did everything with the class. Small group of people so I get paired with a Sempi (2nd degree black belt). Awesome, a 17 year old girl who has been at this for 10 years. She was really nice but didn't hold back in her kicks one bit.
I survived more than half the class, my leg is screaming in pain but I'm just blocking it out. Then Deshi thinks for a minute and gives us options for the last half. Sparring or dive rolls - i've not done either, but before I know what's happening the class votes for dive rolls. Since I was the only white belt my opinion didn't really count anyway either way it was going to new to me.
I learned at a young age that I am not the "rolling" type, even when I was fit I didn't do any gymnastic type activity. The first one was pretty much a somersault but over your shoulder. Then after failing at each attempt of those I had to figure out how to do a reverse roll. Deshi comes down to my side of the mat and shows me, "you know just sit down, throw your feet up to the ceiling, then rotate your hips so your feet go back behind you and let your body follow." I just stare at him for a few seconds and ask "what makes you think that I can do that." He assures me and tells me to just try. So I do, pretty much landing on my side, my arm, and of course my face. Luckily my glasses didn't break. Overall a fun class, now I have something new to practice at home.
So I got my TAA letter today (trade adjustment act). I was recently laid off at the end of June and since my job was outsourced I may be eligible for some extra benefits. The one I'm most excited about is education options. I won't know much more until closer to the end of the month, so I have to keep myself busy until then.
I haven't done monthly goals in quite a while, seeing others set up their goals has motivated me. I'm feeling really good I'm down about 10lbs since starting cage fitness and about 5lbs since karate classes have begun. I'm pretty sure I've converted some fat to muscle so I'm not too upset about the low numbers. Goals below :
Karate classes 3 times a week
Complete class "warm ups" daily (without passing out/crying/whining)
Cage Fitness 2 times a week
Practice Karate at home 5 times a week (with and without kids)
Complete the 5k track walk/jog/run (crawl if need be) 1-2 times per week
Do at home workouts with my kids 3 times a week (plyo, strength, cardio, etc)
the kids pretty much just sing and dance while I actually work out, i don't trust a 6 and 4 year old with weights or bands
Stay within calorie goals per day 5 times a week
Drink 8-10 glasses of water per day
Steal husband's bike and re-learn how to not fall off of it
Isabel Green Belt graduation end of month
TAA meeting 8/22
Prepare for back to school for Isabel (woot 1st grade!)
I've already started to measure hips, waist, thigh, upper arm weekly - i will continue to do that - goal to get another 2 inches off hips/waist and 1 inch off rest by end of month
UPDATED change from monthly to bi-weekly based on today's results inches are flying off
Tomorrow I'm going to assess how many sit-ups/push-ups/jumping jacks I can do in a minute time frame for each exercise and set up some goals around increasing my amounts.
August will be busy, but I'm motivated and have the time - might as well make the most of it.
Wow today was my first Karate class and it was AWESOME! My husband came too and he had a fantastic time as well.
We started with "warm ups" - I'm going to list them below for my benefit so I can start practicing them. So I was ready to crash after the warm-up, but others appeared to have some trouble with the push-ups making me feel a little better about myself. I however was beat red and having trouble catching my breath.
I was partnered with an orange belt teenager, luckily she attends the cage fitness class that I go to and she knew it was my first class. She helped me a lot and was very encouraging. I did okay the class was all different belt levels so it was hard to not get distracted by what the Deshi was teaching the other students cause it was sooo cool.
The end of class we had some extra time so the class elected to practice their nunchuck technique. My daughter is an orange belt in the kids class but hasn't used hers much so I was not very familiar, I'm just happy I didn't hit myself in the head. Deshi said we did a great job, especially since it was our first class :)
Tomorrow cage fitness, Saturday class number 2!
20 (3 count) jumping jacks
10 Toe Touches (toe, belt, overhead)
10 windmills
various stretching (lunge, leg, neck etc)
plank (3 sets one normal, and one on each side (those sucked!)
30 push-ups (2 sets of 15)
45 sit-ups (3 sets of various types and reps - NOT A FAN)
10 rising kicks
10 high knees
10 inside/outside knee lifts
10 butt kickers
5 jumping knee tuck
there may be more but I possibly blacked out at this point :)
So it's been forever since I've logged in, but I'm feeling motivated once again.
My kids are a bit older now and it is getting easier to exercise with them, instead of waiting for time after they go to sleep.
I've been going to Cage Fitness classes at my kids Karate school and I love it! It's 5, 5 minute rounds with small breaks between. It's all different exercises based on mixed martial arts. Last week my husband and I decided to sign up for the adult martial arts classes. Our first class is tomorrow.
So much has changed this last year, but all for the better and I'm ready for a fresh start.
This last month or so has gone by so quickly. I feel a bit overwhelmed from life. Husband working a new schedule and an upcoming change come January is weighing on my mind. My schedule changes in December but I don't know yet what it will be. My oldest is loving kindergarten, but the additional routine changes is really hard. The good news i've only fluxuated about 5 lbs or so so I haven't failed, just not on track. Excercising is impossible lately, but working on finding a solution. Just bought a juicer since I can't seem to get 10 minutes during a 12 hour work day to eat and when i do it's whatever is around. I'm optimistic, but feel very challenged.

Fans of the preeminent dating/hookup simulator, Leisure Suit Larry have had the opportunity to be disappointed twice in the last few months. Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded was supposed to arrive in the Play Store wrapped in cheesy suede back in May. Then it was pushed to late June, but missed that deadline too. Now at long last the hunt is on – Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded has been released on Android.
There are three parts to any good Pac-Man game: a maze, some ghosts, and a little yellow dude eating dots and going "wakka wakka." That's it. Despite this seemingly simple formula, Namco has tried to make Pac-Man a mascot for the ages a la Mario, putting him in everything from platformers to kart racers to freaking Tekken. The latest indignity is Pac-Man Dash, in which the little yellow guy jumps on the endless runner bandwagon.
Joss Whedon fans, you might want to go grab some duct tape. Got it? Now roll about eight feet of it around your head, just in case it explodes with shiny rainbows at this next bit of news: there's an official Firefly game coming to Android. Not a fan project. Not some promotional minigame. A real title based on the cult classic sci-fi TV show and movie. That sound you're hearing now is a million Browncoats shouting with unrestrained glee.
Welcome to the roundup of the best new Android applications, games, and live wallpapers that went live in the Play Store or were spotted by us in the previous 2 weeks or so.
This is the app roundup. The game roundup from this week can be found here.
If you're wondering if the new Play Store is acting a little weird for everyone or just you – it's everyone. A large number of developer pages are missing apps all their apps. They're just empty wastelands of calming gray.
Not all pages are affected, but some big developers are included in the problems. Rovio Stars, Netflix, Dropbox, the NBA, Sony Online, Wacom, Tesla Motors, and YouTube are among those with blank developer pages.
Say what you will about Rovio – those folks know what pays the bills. The developer has announced its new game, and it's another Angry Birds title. This time we're turning to the Star Wars universe with Angry Birds Star Wars II. The new game will incorporate characters and locations from the prequel films. Yes, those ones.
This looks like an evolution of the previous Angry Birds Star Wars game, which was actually kind of enjoyable.
How about a little boost on this Monday morning? Picking up some new apps and games at drastically reduced prices might provide just the kick you need to attack the day like an unstoppable nuclear-powered robot tiger that shoots lightning from its eyes. Or something less outlandish... but these apps are still on sale either way.
Welcome to the roundup of the best new Android applications, games, and live wallpapers that went live in the Play Store or were spotted by us in the previous 2 weeks or so.
This edition focuses only on new games. The app roundup is coming up soon.

Stoners Unite! Three States with MMJ on the Ballot this November
Stoners have an insidious stigma of being unmotivated, lazy slackers. This is disputed by the millions of toking Americans who work productive jobs, take care of their families and get shit done every day in this country. But that doesn't change the label that the media continues to reinforce.
Thankfully despite the barrage of attacks on character, each year cannabis connoisseurs are out in full force politicking and pushing for the legalization of weed at all levels of government. There have been some highly-publicized successes recently in Colorado and Washington, and some equally prominent failures in places like California and Oregon.
This November, there are three states with ballot initiatives to legalize medical marijuana that will be decided by the voters. Those states are Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
If you live in one of those states, it is imperative that you ensure you are registered and informed on how, where and what to vote on. Registration dates are closing in fast, so don't get caught slipping and forget to have your opinion voiced! You must be registered 30 days before the election, which means prior to Oct. 5th.

PC Mall Reports Third Quarter 2012 Results
PC Mall, Inc. (NASDAQ:MALL), a leading technology solutions provider, today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2012. Consolidated net sales for Q3 2012 were $364.6 million, a decrease of $2.9 million from $367.5 million in Q3 2011, and was impacted by a $6.3 million decrease in sales to promotional companies under a vendor program change in Q4 2011 by a large vendor. Excluding the effect of this program change, our sales grew $3.4 million, or 1% compared to Q3 2011. Consolidated gross profit for Q3 2012 decreased $1.8 million to $48.4 million from $50.2 million in Q3 2011. Consolidated gross profit margin was 13.3% in Q3 2012 compared to 13.7% in Q3 2011. EBITDA (as defined below), which includes $0.7 million of severance and restructuring related costs for Q3 2012, increased $0.7 million to $7.1 million from $6.4 million in Q3 2011. Consolidated operating profit for Q3 2012, which includes $1.0 million of severance and restructuring related costs, increased $0.1 million to $4.0 million compared to $3.9 million for Q3 2011. Consolidated net income, which includes $0.6 million, net of tax, of severance and restructuring related costs, remained flat at $1.8 million for Q3 2012 compared to Q3 2011. Diluted EPS for Q3 2012 was $0.15 compared to diluted EPS of $0.14 for Q3 2011. Excluding severance and restructuring related costs, adjusted EPS was $0.20.
Commenting on the Company's third quarter results, Frank Khulusi, Chairman, President and CEO of PC Mall, Inc. said, "I am pleased that despite a demand environment that was not as robust as expected, we were able to grow our sales over last year, net of the impact a vendor program change had on our results. Continuing economic uncertainties led customers to defer or scale back their spending on IT, but our teams did a tremendous job being attentive to our customers' needs, and continued to focus on our growing services and solutions business while building long term relationships with customers by helping them to optimize their IT environments. Our services revenues grew 11% year over year, a reflection of customers increasingly embracing outsourcing and our own success in bringing these solutions to our customers. While we do not think this slow-down in IT spending is permanent, we do expect that it will continue for at least the next two quarters, and have continued reducing our fixed cost structure. In the third quarter, we took actions we expect will result in $3.9 million of annualized cost savings, bringing the total actions we have taken this year to $7.3 million of expected annualized cost savings. We currently expect to take further actions in the fourth quarter that will result in at least $1.3 million of additional expected annualized cost savings. We also believe that our cost structure will benefit from the unification of our commercial brands, which is discussed below. Our EBITDA, net of restructuring costs, was $7.8 million in Q3, and for the 9 months ended September 30 our EBITDA net of restructuring costs totaled approximately $18.8 million. We intend to continue to reduce our overall cost structure, while we make selective investments in our services capabilities, people and technologies."

Man made climate change does not exist
We are lil humans. We aren't having an impact on the Earth's temperature. To hear flaming Liberals talk, you'd think every time someone fires up their car, they're taking off a year of the life of the Planet. I love listening to them talk though. They drone on and on about how every little thing we do affects the temp, rain, the sea, hurricanes, tornadoes, etc. God Damnit I love it. The fact is, scientists have ways of telling the Earth's temperature from 10's of thousands of years ago. Have you ever seen how they do this? They go to the arctic and they basically drill way down in to the Earth. They retrieve ice that's been under there forever. What comes up is this thin cylinder of ice, and with that they can study it to determine the temperature from any time in history. It's been hot, and it's been cold. It goes in cycles. The elitist Liberals want everyone to believe that the Planet is heating up quicker than it ever has due to human interaction. Untrue. No it isn't.
As the East Coast grapples with the fallout of Hurricane Sandy, Democrats are sounding the alarm over climate change, suggesting that carbon pollution played a role in bringing about the deadly storm.
Hurricane Sandy is exactly the type of extreme weather event that climate scientists have said will become more frequent and more severe if we fail to reduce our carbon pollution, Democratic Reps. Henry Waxman of California and Bobby Rush of Illinois wrote in a letter Wednesday to Rep. Fred Upton, chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
Waxman and Rush called on Upton to convene a lame-duck congressional hearing on the matter, accusing Republicans of ignoring the issue.
For two years, the House of Representatives has pretended that climate change is not happening and that the consequences can be dismissed without concern, they wrote.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo cited climate change in a press briefing earlier this week, arguing that, Anyone who says there's not a dramatic change in weather patterns, I think, is denying reality.
But scientists say the evidence is far less concrete than the politicians appear to believe.
Martin Hoerling, a meteorologist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, said Sandy wasnt boosted by global warming -- the storm merely revealed natural forces at work.
Great events can have little causes, he told the New York Times. In this case, the immediate cause is most likely little more that the coincidental alignment of a tropical storm with an extratropical storm.
The climate change debate has been absent from the campaign trail this year as economic recovery and foreign policy have dominated the headlines. But with Sandys unprecedented devastation leaving New York City subways flooded and ravaging coastal towns throughout New Jersey activists are hoping to yet again spotlight the issue.
The office of Senate Energy Committee Chairman Jeff Bingaman sent a note to reporters reminding them of a previous hearing on the threat of rising sea levels to domestic infrastructure.
When sea levels rise, the storm surge associated with extreme storms gets even worse, Bingaman, a New Mexico Democrat, said at the April hearing. These impacts are not theoretical and they are not disputed and they are not in the distant future.
As for Sandy, Andrew Weaver, a climate scientist with Canadas University of Victoria, said climate change didn't make an ordinary storm extraordinary.
"The ingredients of this storm seem a little bit cooked by climate change, but the overall storm is difficult to attribute to global warming," Weaver told the Associated Press.
But the science is anything but clear cut. Michael Mann, a Penn State University scientist who has been studying the climate for decades, said that ocean waters were about 1 degree warmer thanks to manmade climate change, one factor that clearly caused Sandy to swell.
Does climate change exist? Yes. It does, but it has little to do with anything we're doing. It's goes up and down on it's own. It makes me laugh that now, every time there's a storm, people point to man made climate change. And the better part is to hear them talk about it.

Audi A4 Lease Questions
dl7265 Posts: 1,381
You;re very welcome, Max. Changing the mileage allowance from 12,000 to 15,000 miles per year would not have any impact upon your car's money factor, but its residual value would be 2% lower.
It definitely wouldn't hurt to shop around a little bit. By doing so, you are more likely to get the best possible deal on the car that you want.
Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
Hey Dude :shades: . If you were to lease a 2006 Audi A4 3.0 Cabriolet through Audi Financial Services right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00235 and 60%, respectively.
Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
Hi 5510xi. The numbers that I provided you with are correct for a lease through Audi Financial Services for a consumer who pays a security deposit and AFS' $575 acquisition fee. AFS will waive the security deposit waived in exchange for a .00015 money factor increase and the acquisition fee for a .00050 money factor increase. If you are being asked to pay both of these items at lease signing, the dealer that you are working with is most likely marking your car's money factor up to add additional back-end profit to your deal. You should be able to get them to lease you this car using the base money factor if you confront them with AFS' factor.
Most banks that lease luxury vehicles give lessees the option to make multiple security deposits on vehicles. These banks hold onto your additional deposits for the duration of your lease. They do not pay you interest on your deposit, but instead they reduce the money factor that is used to calculate the interest portion of your lease payment by a certain amount for each additional deposit.

You're very welcome, skenterprises. The main difference between Audi Financial Services' lease and balloon note programs, other than the differences that I mentioned earlier, is that it uses money factors to calculate the interest portion of lease payments and interest rates to calculate the interest portion of balloon note payments. Your option to purchase your leased vehicle should be about the same, regardless of whether you lease or get a balloon note on it. I don't believe that multiple security deposits are available on balloon notes, but I am not positive that this is the case. You will have to ask your dealer to find out for certain.

edwardsf Posts: 188Thanks, you da (Car)man. Regarding AFS's current deals:
1) 24 month. You cited the AFS MF (.00080) and the Residual (69% - CVT or 70% - Quattro). So given that the dealer can mess with anything but the residual, does this mean that they can move the MF up or down and then add a down payment on to that?
2) Regarding the down payment (e.g. $999 for the 36 month lease), can I tell them that I will gladly pay a MSD of $999, instead of a down payment? My understanding is both will reduce the monthly payment but I actually get back the MSD at then end of the lease!
Hi Car man,
I spoke with the car salesman today! He told me the car will be here in February. When i signed for the car it was $36,987(buying price) A4 white,sunroof pckg Quattro,tiptronic,tech + bluetooth and nav. Out of pocket $2200 put down in order to get monthly payment down to $433 incl 7% tax (FL.)At the time the MF was 1.39,residual 75%, 12,000 miles per year but thinking about doing it on 15,000 per year, 2 yr lease. Is this right? Also if i do it on 15,000 miles per year how much would the monthly payment be please? I have an Audi A4 1999 White Quattro,tiptronic,52,500 miles,one previous owner,transferable warranty,leather ,tape + 10 disc CD. Full maintenance history,done by Audi and new turbo done by Audi too,new tyres too. I have really looked after this car. I put it in Auto trader for $11,500 but if it comes down to trading it in, how nmuch do you think i should get for it, please Car man? I know this is a lot of info to ask for and you are very very busy but help me out please Car man. :confuse:
ledname Posts: 23I'm in interested in a 2.0T Quattro 6-Speed Manual with a 1 year lease (or 2 year if I can't get a 1 year). I'm looking for something like 18K Miles per year. If anyone knows details for this kind of lease, please post. Not sure if it matters but I would add Navi, Premium, Cold, Technology (w/ BT), Aduio (Sirius), and Parktronic.
Thanks in advance.
kupe15 Posts: 736 month lease on A4 2.0T w/sunroof package. Sticker $33,600, Agreed price of $32,250, 56% residual value, .0008mf, 15K miles w/no down payment. Final Lease payment including tax/interest = $438.86. There is a $375 security deposit, 1st mo payment and $575 acquisition fee payable at signing for a total of $1338.86 due at signing. Can't get them to move any more. What do you think??
I went to the dealer today and he said the money factor is .00125 and residual is 55 on an Audi A4 2.0 CVT with 15k miles per year and 36 months
are those fair numbers?
the car sticker was $32035 with a selling price of $31235
1537.97 due at signing and a monthly payment of $448 including tax
is this a fair deal?

dlz Posts: 4I just got the following lease deal on the A4 Cabriolet 3.0L Quattro, with Premium package, Bose audio w/XM radio, heated rear seats, in Light Silver metallic:
MSRP $49,735 (as configured)
Capitalized cost $45,770, plus $1,741 sales tax (NY 7.375%)
10,000 miles per year, .00235 money factor, 61% residual
Monthly payment: $660 including tax
1st month ($660)
Security deposit ($675)
Dealer fee ($399)
Bank fee ($575)
Title/registration, etc. ($130)
Seems like a a good deal...any thoughts?
ca_man Posts: 23Hi Car_Man or kyfdx,
I am considering getting my next Audi ...
I didn't realize that you could pay MSD's with Audi just like BMW ... How much does paying the MSD's affect the MF ?
Is there a limit to the amount you can pay as MSD ?
Also, can the MSD be combined with the promotional lease factors like the ones that exist on the 2.0T quattro?
Thanks for your all your help !
Received this quote today, after casually looking at an A4 Avant 2.0T (Dakar Beige, Premium and Sunroof Packages). The car was a Dec. delivery car so no $600 price increase for ones shipped after Jan. 1. Based on a $35,660 price (dealer took $1000 off $36,660 MSRP) - Again I did not start the negotiation process, this was given to me as probably what they'd tell anybody:
36 months
12,000 miles/year
Residual 58%
Down Payment $0
Acquisition Fee $575.00
Fees & Insurance $394.00 ($239 documentation fee / $155 new plates fee)
Upfront taxes: $58.14
Base Monthly Payment: $465.38/month
Monthly Payment w/ state tax (6%): $493.30
First Payment Due upfron: $493.30
Total Upfront: $1520.44 ($493.30+575+394+58.14)
For 15,000 miles per year, monthly fee is $514 including tax.
Any thoughts on how this looks, and whether vehicle price can be negotiated down?
You're welcome, edwardsf. Yes, dealers often have the authority to "mark-up" vehicle's lease money factors to add additional hidden back-end profit to deals. Now that you know what this car's buy rate lease money factor is, you should be able to avoid this.
Many banks allow lessees to make multiple security deposits on leased vehicles, with each additional deposit buying down the money factor by a certain amount. The nice thing about making multiple security deposits is that assuming your vehicle is in good shape and you do not exceed your mileage allowance you actually get it back and the end of your lease. I am not sure what Audi Financial Services' exact policy on MSDs is. You need to check with your dealer to find out if it accepts them and if so how they impact your lease payment.

Hi ledname. Audi Financial Services is one of the few captive finance companies that has a decent one year lease program. Having said that, with any twelve month lease you are going to have a pretty high monthly payment because you will have to pay for a TON of depreciation. If you were to lease a 2006 Audi A4 2.0T with quattro through AFS right now for 12 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00080 and 72%, respectively. 15,000 miles per year is the highest mileage allowance that AFS publishes residual values for. If you need to drive more than this, you will have to purchase additional miles on a per-mile basis. It is less expensive to do so at lease signing than it is to wait until lease-end and have to pay an excess mileage penalty.

That depends upon what this car's selling price is. Always remember dude that the selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. I'd be happy to estimate what this car's lease payment should be like right now for you if you provide me with an estimated selling price for the exact model that you are considering. You may be able to get an idea of how much you will have to pay for it right now by visiting the following discussion: "Audi A4: Prices Paid & Buying Experience".

Greetings Luke. If you were to lease a 2006 Audi A4 2.0T Sedan with quattro through Audi Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00080 and 56%, respectively.

Hello slaughter5111. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2006 Audi A4 2.0T without quattro with an MSRP of $31,560 and a selling price of $30,200 through Audi Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $393.

The most anticipated wedding of the year is upon us — no, not Lois and Clark's on Smallville — but that of Prince William and Kate Middleton. Buckingham Palace has slowly released nearly every detail about the big day — from the floral arrangements to where Middleton will spend her final night of singlehood. But do you know where to watch the April 29 ceremony? Here's a breakdown of the coverage:
- ABC's Good Morning America will air a special edition starting at 4 a.m./ET. Robin Roberts will begin the coverage live from Westminster Abbey, before handing off to Diane Sawyer and Barbara Walters, who will anchor the wedding. - CBS' Katie Couric will anchor live from London starting at 5 a.m./ET. - CNN will be live beginning at 4 a.m./ET with commentators Piers Morgan, Anderson Cooper, Richard Quest and Cat Deeley.- All four of NBC's Today anchors will broadcast live from London beginning at 4 a.m./ET.- YouTube will have a live-stream here beginning at 5 a.m./ET.
Yes, it's the royal event of the decade!
Yes, I admit I'm a little curious.
No, I'll be fast asleep/at work/unconscious in a gutter.
Who are William and Kate?
