One Touch
This game will baffle your mind, for it is not always so easy to draw a shape without lifting the finger and without retracing the same line.
Play this interesting game of drawing, and show if you really take challenges seriously.
All you need to do is move your finger on the shape shown on your mobile screen. But don't forget to follow the rules!
✔ 6 amazing modes of gameplay!
✔ 600 levels to enjoy for hours in run!
✔ Addictive & Mind Baffling Game!
✔ No two shapes are same, each one comes with a unique level of difficulty!
Follow the rules, draw the shapes, have a time of your life!!
● Play six different modes with 600 difficult & addictive levels in the game, but remember each one is as much challenging as the last one.
● Move your finger on the shape shown on your mobile screen. You will learn why elders said that one must not drift away from his path :P
● You must not lift your finger. Lifting the finger will end your game. Just keep moving it along the lines.
These are just the basic rules, you will have to follow different set of rules in each game mode.
1. Warm Up - Play 100 different levels in the 'Warm up' mode. It will be easy just to get you into the groove!
2. Warm Up Timer – It will keep getting interesting with each mode. Rules are same as the previous one, you just need to beat the timer in the 'Warm Up Timer' mode.
3. Dots to Dots – In this mode you may think it is easier as the shape is already shown. But you'd just be fooling yourself if you thought it was easier! ;)
4. Deadly Dots – Finish the shown shape before the time runs out! So in a way 'Deadly Dots' is just like 'Dots to Dots' but DEADLY! You need to finish in time.
5. Double Trouble – Lets get a twist in the game, now you won't be tracing the shape just once. You will have to trace the Red line twice or your game will be over!
Be clever, some paths are worth walking twice. ;)
6. Time Trouble – We all know time is an enemy! Even in the games that we enjoy so much! Although you need to beat the time once again, but stay assured it's going to be even more fun than any of the modes above!
You will need to complete the shape while tracing the red line twice, just don't forget that the time is running out! Be fast or die!
Get down on drawing, but remember it is not so easy to draw in 'One Touch'. It's addictive, challenging, & very much fun to play this game. It will never get old!
NOTE: You can conveniently clear the levels with the help of In-app purchases of the game that allows you to buy hints & stop timer, ranging from $2.99 -$4.99.

Metro cutting cost of popular fare card
- Staff Washington Business Journal
Starting on Oct. 1, Metro will cut the cost of its SmarTrip fare card from $5 to $2, The Washington Post reported.
In a Metro board meeting on Thursday, General Manager Richard Sarles said that the new price will match the surcharge a rider pays for a round-trip using a paper fare card. The $5 fee was well above the cost of making the cards.

OCZ Technology Unveils Vertex 2 Pro and Vertex 2 EX Solid State Drives for Enterprise Clients
OCZ Technology Unveils Vertex 2 Pro and Vertex 2 EX Solid State Drives for Enterprise Clients
New OCZ SATA II and SAS SSD Solutions Utilize SandForce SF-1500 SSD Processors for Optimal Performance, Reliability, and Endurance
SAN JOSE, Calif., June 10, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OCZ Technology Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:OCZ), a worldwide leader in innovative, ultra-high performance and high reliability memory and flash-based storage as an alternative to hard disk drives (HDDs), unveils the Vertex 2 Pro and Vertex 2 EX Solid State Drive (SSD) Series, high-performance 2.5 inch storage solutions designed for enterprise applications.
"OCZ is committed to enabling our enterprise clients with the latest solid state drive technology in a variety of interfaces," said Ryan Petersen, CEO of the OCZ Technology Group. "With our new Vertex 2 EX and Pro series SSDs, we are able to deliver robust solutions that address the critical requirements of enterprise applications, including enhanced endurance, write performance, and data protection, with the option of either MLC or SLC NAND. These are truly best-in-class solutions designed for the most rigorous computing environments."
Built with the latest SandForce SF-1500 SSD processors, the Vertex 2 Pro/EX series of SSDs addresses the limitations of NAND flash memory in I/O-intensive environments and maximizes endurance and reliability. As a viable enterprise-grade, Multi-Level Cell (MLC) solution, Vertex 2 Pro features transfer rates up to 285MB/s read, 275MB/s write, and 4KB random writes up to 50,000 Input/Output per second (IOPS). Ideal for rigorous applications and workloads, the Vertex 2 EX uses Single-Level Cell (SLC) memory, which has ten times the program/erase (P/E) cycles with the same enhanced performance as the Pro edition. Additionally, a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) version will be made available to clients making use of the interface in their storage infrastructures.
Vertex 2 Pro/EX SSDs feature several enterprise-specific features not available on the consumer product lines; both series have a built-in supercapacitor that acts as a temporary power backup in the event of sudden power loss, enabling the drive to complete its task ensuring no data loss. Vertex 2 Pro/EX also provides superior ECC protection and unique technology that mimics RAID-like protection and recovery from flash block failures on a single drive.
Furthermore, Vertex 2 Pro/EX increases the longevity of NAND flash memory with intelligent block management and wear-leveling to extend endurance and overall reliability of the device. This feature automatically stores data in an AES-128 encrypted format to prevent data extraction to maintain security of confidential information, a necessity in an enterprise environment.
Combined with greater durability and lower power consumption than traditional mechanical hard drives, the Vertex 2 Pro and Vertex 2 EX deliver the performance needed to take enterprise applications to the next level. Available in 50GB, 100GB, and 200GB capacities, these SSDs feature a 10 million mean time between failures (MTBF) rating and come backed by a 3-year warranty and dedicated technical and engineering support and customization for OEM clients.

Immersion Corporation (NASDAQ: IMMR), the leader in touch feedback technology development and licensing, today announced it entered into a settlement and license agreement with Google, Inc. and Motorola Mobility LLC, resolving the patent infringement litigation brought by Immersion against Motorola. The litigation was initiated based on Motorola's various uses of a simple form of haptic effects in its mobile devices, sometimes referred to as Basic Haptics. Under the settlement and license agreement, Immersion is receiving compensation for prior shipments of Motorola devices containing Basic Haptics technology, the parties have agreed to a license relating to future shipments of Motorola devices with Basic Haptics, and have resolved certain issues with respect to Google-branded smartphones containing Basic Haptics. The agreement does not extend to other manufacturers' handsets that use the Android operating system. As a result of the settlement, Immersion will dismiss all pending litigation between it and Motorola.
"The successful resolution of this case is a critical step in our overall strategy of enforcing and monetizing our intellectual property, including Basic Haptics, and we're pleased to achieve a settlement that is consistent with our business model, which is largely based on per unit running royalties," said Immersion CEO Victor Viegas. "We remain fully committed to enforcing our IP rights while continuing to innovate and create new technology and solutions for the mobile space. While the terms of the settlement will remain confidential and are not anticipated to have a material impact on our financial results for 2012, this settlement is a great step forward in validating the value of our IP portfolio and the investments we have made in the mobile market."

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

Because it's upstairs at Frognerseteren and therefore just above the Holmenkollen ski jump, Finstua is a great spot to take in sweeping mountain views. With chefs well versed in traditional Norwegian fare, this rustic and elegant spot serves salted and smoked fish, game, and more. The apple cake is legendery. Downstairs is the more casual Kafe Seterstua. To get here, take the Holmenkollbanen metro to the end station and then follow the signs downhill to the restaurant.
Holmenkollvn. 200, Oslo, 0791, Norway

How's Everyone??
The forum has been pretty slow lately and in a way, I guess it's a good thing. Hopefully, everyone is doing as good as can be expected and busy doing good things.
DH and I have been babysitting grandchildren today and will again tomorrow. That's definitely a good thing and makes us smile!!
I'm happy to say that Lauren and Keith have been to our two last Compassionate Friends meetings and seem to be gaining something from them. We meet at the cemetery also occassionally since our babies are buried a few feet apart.
What's going on with y'all? Anybody?
Here is a link that might be useful: Christin Cosby Memorial Web Site
Hi Lu and everyone,
Thanks for asking, and yes, I also have noticed things are slow here, but maybe that's good in a way. Seems like it goes from one extreme to the other, slow, then it's buzzing like crazy. I went to a TCF chapter when I lost my son 19 years ago when I lived in Scranton. They were a welcome thing to me, as I thought I was losing my mind. I have yet to attend one where I live now, as I remember much of the support they gave, and it has helped me in the loss of my only other child, Erica, who died this past June. I just noticed last week that her 19th birthday falls on Mother's Day this year. And now I am childless. Oooh, I dread that day. Today is my mother's birthday, she'd have been 76, but celebrates it in Heaven with 4 of her 5 grandchildren. Anyhow, lately just been busy with wanting to start a scrapbook of my 2 angels, but how do you put 18 years into a book? Just got to find the time and ambition. Seems as if there is never enough time for anything! Glad to hear from you.
Emma in PA
Hi Lu, and Hi Emma. Let's just say I made an appointment with my counselor for next week. I haven't seen her in awhile, and it's time for a "tune-up."
Lu, I remember when I first came here you said you'd lost Christin six years before, and I thought that sounded like such a long time. Now here I am approaching the five-year mark myself. Jill died on May 28, 2001.
My husband's last years were long and difficult, but now that he's gone it's so much easier to remember the many good years--and to miss them. Caring for him, even when he was in the nursing home, was a focus for me, too. Now I'm working on the the house and other things, but feeling a little disenfranchised.
I guess it doesn't help that it's winter.
Hi Lulie and freinds,
It's been 11 weeks since our Darren was laid to rest. The Mardi Gras season is upon us and that is/was our family fun time together. I have to continue on for the rest of my children and grandkids. But, my husband can't seem to find any happiness in this event that we shared together for so long.I know that our son would want us to get up and get going but everything is so difficult. Even going to the grocery store.I am "snapping" at my husband for nothing. He cries for everything.We can't remember yesterday. I know all this is normal,but I'm starting to think we need medication to help cope. Ya'll mention earlier that things were quite,well I guess I'm stirring the pot! Can you feel it ready to boil over like I can? Jennifer U. from Golden Age says hello to Lulie. I promised her a copy of the "letter" about Christian. God Bless to All
Thank you for asking. Lulie. Things are OK here...I think we're settling into a pattern of coping daily. The pain of our loss is still sharp, but we look for ways to help each other, and we do find joy in lots of things and events. The joy we feel is always tempered, however, and painful memories continue to poke and sometimes nearly cripple us...and almost always, it happens when we least expect it. We're happy to see spring starting to arrive, but spring brings Mother's day, Millie's birthday (could she possibly have been 9 this May!), and then the horrible anniversary of their deaths on June 17. These are tough, tough days to endure. We see our granddaughter, almost 3, born just 2 weeks before the accident, and she's a great joy. Her mom and dad (our middle son) just suffered a miscarriage a few weeks ago...how we were looking forward to another grandchild. But, they've come to grips with it, and we are trying to also. Blessings to all of you who visit this forum, and I wish you all the best in dealing with your adversities and finding meaning in a life lived after tragedy. I have to admit that Brycesmommy's wonderful news about her Valentine's day twins has brightened my world. She deserves some real happiness.
Lu, I saw this post a month ago but some glitch in GW would not let me sign in. A couple days ago I saw in the S & C forum that there really was a problem with the board and they were fixing it, so I tried again.
It's always good to hear from all of you and learn what you're doing to cope and what you're doing for others. It seems to me that each year brings a better sense of focus and purpose despite the pain that is always there.
It isn't 'better' now, but it is 'different' than when that first overwhelming crush of grief descends upon us.

October 4
This morning we woke up at 5:30am to get ready to go back to the festival. Because the tents get so crowded we knew we needed to go early enough to get on the front of the line. Last night, we made arrangements with our friend Kathleen from home to meet at the Ferris wheel at 6:30am before going to the tent, and so we did just that. When we woke up, we assumed nothing would be open for ...
Day 34: Munich
I woke up with a real sense of anticipation this morning. I was going to Oktoberfest again. Not only that, but I was going to remember having pork knuckle today. There was no way it could be anything but an amazing day! I know you're all jealous already! Once again I made a strategic decision to skip breakfast - some might think that's a bit foolish, but when faced with going to a festival absolutely full of native food and heaps of other choices, or a general continental (I think ...
... amazeballs) and contemplated going on the rides. Of course being the first night it was super busy, so we thought we'd save that for Monday when we come back.We made our way back to our area and stopped for dinner at the same restaurant as last night. Then we had a nice early night ready for tomorrow to explore Munich...also we are having dinner with the couple we met at the Hostel in Lisbon...so that will be good.
NightAndrea and ...
Day 11 - Arrive in Munich
... for dinner. We found our meeting point for our tour tomorrow at the train station, chose our breakfast cafe for tomorrow and then had thai for dinner. Afterwards we browsed the cbd, had delicious waffles and ice cream for sweets and walked back to the hotel.
Tomorrow we are going on a half day tour of Dachau Concentration Camp and a half day tour of the Third Reich in Munich. Tomorrow will be an emotionally fatiguing day. We need an early night.
The most northern city in Italy
I arrived in Munich on Wednesday 23 July and met friends Helen and Millie, we landed within about 10 minutes of each other which was ideal, and we then made our way into town to go to our hotel - a nice treat after the Barcelona hostel and I was so happy to see the girls. We were all very excitable, and stayed that way all day, possibly all week! We stayed in an Ibis hotel (Munich south) and once we'd quickly checked in we set about exploring. First stop was a beer garden! ...

A new survey suggests that a considerable majority of Serbian citizens, however reluctantly, accept that Kosovo is now an independent country.
A new poll shows that about 63 per cent of Serbian citizens accept that Kosovo is in practice an independent state - and that Serbia can only fight now to secure the best position for the Serbs still in Kosovo.
About one third of citizens, 32 per cent, say Kosovo is not independent while 5 per cent do not have an answer.
The survey of 1,003 people was conducted by B92 TV and by the agency Ipsos Strategic Marketing.
Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in 2008, which Belgrade opposes. At the same time, normalisation of relations with Kosovo is the EU's main precondition for Serbia as it continues to pursue EU membership.
Serbia obtained EU candidate status in March 2012 and is hoping to obtain a start date for accession talks in June.
While most Serbs acccept the status quo in Kosovo, the survey shows that most Serbians would still rather see Kosovo as part of Serbia, than Serbia as a part of the EU.
Given a choice, some 65 per cent of those surveyed said the priority for Serbia was Kosovo, while the EU was a priority for 28 per cent of people and 7 per cent were indecisive.
EU-mediated talks between Kosovo and Serbia started in March 2011 under Edita Tahiri from Kosovo and Borislav Stefanovic from Serbia.
The dialogue was raised to a higher level in October 2012, when the EU foreign affairs chief, Catherine Ashton, brought together the Kosovo and Serbian prime ministers, Hashim Tachi and Ivica Dacic.
Since October, Ashton, Tachi and Dacic have met six times. Since 2011, the two sides have reached agreements on border management as well as deals on Kosovo's representation at regional meetings, university diplomas and trade.
There is considerable disagreement on the extent to which the deals have been implemented.
According to the survey, 61 per cent of citizens believe Dacic did a good job in representing Serbian interests during the talks, while 21 per cent believed Dacic's performance was poor.
While mostly praising the role of Dacic in the talks, a large majority of Serbs were critical of the EU's role in the dialogue.
About 78 per cent of those surveyed said the EU was not neutral during the talks, while 16 per cent think it was.
In a new report, Kosovo Minister Edita Tahiri says Belgrade is to blame for the slow pace of implementation of the Brussels Agreement in almost all fields except justice.
Kosovo Serb MPs will hold talks with the Serbian government before deciding whether to leave both the Kosovo government and the parliament.
After a prolonged halt to their talks, Kosovo and Serbia in Brussels have signed an agreement on integrating the courts in Serb-run nothern Kosovo into the Kosovo judicial system and agreeing on their ethnic structure.
Top officials from Serbia and Kosovo are meeting in Brussels as the dialogue on normalising relations between Belgrade and Pristina resumes after ten months of standstill.
A report by a Belgrade think tank says the Serbian government needs to be more transparent about the process of implementing the 2013 Brussels agreement - which is also proceeding too slowly.
Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic will meet local Serbian political representatives this week on his first visit to Kosovo since taking up the premier's post last year.
A heavy police presence is being deployed across Serbian municipalities in Kosovo, as local Serbs prepare for Orthodox Christmas and visits from Belgrade officials.
In a sign of growing tension between him and the government, Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic on Sunday declared that any major decisions made on Kosovo must go to a referendum.
With no agreement yet on mail cooperation between Kosovo and Serbia, sending a simple letter from one to the other remains a hassle.
After months of delay, Kosovo and Serbia are willing to continue the EU-mediated dialogue early next year in Brussels.
Brussels agreement has left Serbs in north Kosovo uncertain about what the future holds - and whether they should remain at all.

Import Friendly - Demon's Souls, Dragon Ball Tenkaichi Daibouken, Armored Core 3

give us some birth by sleep action!!!!!!!!!!
Rizer all you have to do is put the game in...the great thing bout Wii and PS3 bro is that there is no lock on them systems....so you can play what ever you want
I don' get it....does Demon's Souls have online or something?
I've never imported before. Do you have to have some sort of special program downloaded on to your PS3 to do it?
[This message was deleted at the request of a moderator or administrator]
You guys will love MHtri. its awesome!!
Wow I really hope that in the next monster we could fight against humanoids of some sort (besides Felynes) but then Demons Souls and Monster Hunter will basically be the same game.
Getting a Wii just for monster hunter tri.
@Vasot : They are two completely different games. That's like comparing Diablo with a LOTR rpg. I'm sure Dragon Age will be awesome, its BioWare. But Demon's Souls is not like anything any system has. If you even slightly like RPGs you should be getting both and not be acting so childish comparing.
Also, @4:46 Lol it does look like Naruto...or more like Kakashi in Naruto's clothes. I'm not sure which armor set that is but that's definitely a Gravios gun!
Monster Hunterrrrrrrrrr!!! (I thought it was cancelled for good. I'm glad Capcom re-decided to release a US version!)
NoLifeGamin its actually not that expensive getting import on ebay, I got mine for $79AUD incl postage. Normal new release in Aus are between $79-$119
Wow! "Import Friendly" is like the best show you guys produce (coming from somebody who works in television production)! Keep up the good work! Can't wait for MH3! 2010 can't come quickly enough!
.....i'll wait for demon souls, don't wanna spend extra bucks for an import :D (im a cheapskate)
Does the screen has to be any bigger its soo much lagy
Support this game people! Only really tough and atmospheric games like this can satisfy the hard-core gamer. Down with casual play! Power to the hard-core!
Dragon Age: Origins >>> Demon's Souls
@Takeshi-GS the episodes are brilliant thanks alot i have a favor to ask can you import the new persona 3 portable game (p3p) pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
demons souls looks fun and gorgeous , cant wait to get it
this is the kind of monster hunting game i like its fits my format of game playing it als o look kool i a think i saw naruto to lol
Nice games, can't wait.
ok it's harder (that boss killed him with a blow lol O_O)
deamon souls seems somuch better than what i expected but the question is,is it harder than ninja gaiden if not then there's no prob.
Hey everybody. Glad to hear you're enjoying the new episode. Here's how the show works. I show great games available overseas that you all might be interested in. Despite the name of the show, I don't only show games that are import friendly but also show games that might not be the most easy games for your typical non-Japanese speaking gamer to get into but still might be interesting or fun, or it could be a game that might be plain odd or strange that would be interesting for western audiences. The last part of the show introduces you to cool new import releases to keep you aware of what's going on outside of the country. All in the hopes that if it's a games you like, you can import the game and try to play it yourself or create enough interest and buzz around the game to make the devs consider releasing it in other regions. Or it could just be an early look at a game while we're all waiting patiently for a release over here. All in all, it's all meant to be entertaining. So keep on watching. Keep on commenting. And if there's any games you'd like to see, make sure to let me know in the comments. With Tokyo Game Show right around the corner, we'll be up to our gills to bring you the best event coverage you've come to expect from GameSpot. We'll be taking a little break but have no fear, we'll be right back on the job in no time to satisfy your import needs. Thanks for watching!

4:46 is that naruto in monster hunter 3? lol
love import friendly
@Kleeyook I guess you dont watch this segment to much, but they just announce great games only available over seas and the Wii can be modded or you could own an imported Wii itself.
I couldn't wait either for Demon's Souls. Its an amazing game. GET.IT.NOW.
Demon souls is gonna be GREAT! :D
Umm. How could DB TD and MH3 be import friendly? They are all on Wii. And Wii games are region lock unlike PS3 and PSP. :(
New Dragonball looks like great fun. Look forward to it.
Im glad Kevin Mentioned the Kings Field series, he's the first guy ive actually heard mention it when talking about Demon Souls, no wonder i like him so much.
yes it is hexo123 its supposed to be a brilliant exclusive for the ps3
is demon souls only for ps3????
I already imported and finished Demons Souls, brilliant, brilliant game.
when the game comes out the differculty will be lowered drastically. if it was hard at all. therefore its gonna be a pass
Demons Souls doesn't look so good....The other games are ok,but i thought that demon souls would be very good and it doesn't,the gameplay :S !!God of War is so much better...c'mon...
Demons souls looks awesome, finally an rpg, with a challenge, can't wait to get stuck into that. Does anyone know if Monster hunter will be going onto the PS3?
i want monster hunter 3 NOW! unless it turns out 2 have crappy motion controls, which it better not have!
wow nice game...and a new aspect which shows other users last moment's great!!and check out that weird-three-eyes boss. and man armored core 3 rocks!!!!
daaaiaboooken............kaamehamehaahahaaaa... lol its funny the way he screams!!
@Gelugon_baat Nice one pointing that out xD Demon's Soul Look Awesome, Its difficulty will be challenging will I adore in games... so I won't finish the game like in a week =] Demon's soul appeal to be more cost-effective ... But, I will wait till comes out
Demon's souls looked interesting.
demon souls looks coolz
cant wait for Demons Souls to come out in the US....its going to be awesome!!!

From Bandon to Windsor and Santa Rosa!
... flavorful. All in all a great meal. Great value, too! We would go back in a heartbeat!
And, just down the street was Tex Wasabi's, a Guy Fieri restaurant, the guy who does Diners, Driveins, and Dives on the Food Network. Of course, wanted to go in for a drink. With its name, should have guessed that it was BBQ and sushi! Interesting menu! Just had beers and not all of it either. We were way too full from dinner! Oh yeah, Gray's manager and ...
You know I've seen rain...well,
... a shower, you take another shower.
Don't get me wrong. I wash when I camp. I have two roll up sinks, I heat water, I have soap. I have microfiber quick dry towels. I have baby wipes. I even take showers in campgrounds when they are decent. But, camping is a sooty, dirty, gritty life. Particularly when you make campfires from sappy pine wood.
I know campfires. Once when I was about 15, my scout ...
Packing our bags!
... I just dont like Mexico, no offense, I have good reason.
I not going to narrate my whole trip schedule I will do it on a daily basis when I get there, because frankly we dont have an itenerary. I dont believe in reservations or package tours of any kind. Though if I ever want to completely travel like a ^%&*&^$ ummm I wont get into that.....anyways, I go with the flow when I travel. That doesnt mean I dont plan though. I become an expert ...
The grand totals and some final thoughts
... Noooo. Instead we would shell out the extra $15 per night to stay on the beach and get the full experience. Because of this way of thinking we returned home a little in the hole but with far fewer regrets.
Not so much down time
We quickly realized that we had taken on one helluva task trying to make it across the country and back in ...
Return to home
... return from a vacation. We are just moving our home….back home, I guess you could say. Kind of weird actually. It's not like we get to pull up to our house and start unpacking. Go inside and flip on the big screen TV, check our messages on the answering machine, inspect the garden and/or fruit trees, grab a beer out of a full size fridge or take a (real) shower in a full size bathroom. How about doing a load of laundry in your own washer ...
