Galaxy Bowl includes:
One of the most popular bowling games in the world today. Score strikes, spares, and turkeys.
Practice challenging spares. Clear stages to unlock new balls.
Knock down as many pins as you can in 5 throws at a rack of 100 pins!
Invented in 1880. Candlepin bowling offers a great challenge. Candlepins are thin skittles that bounce and spin unpredictably when struck. Pins aren't cleared between rounds allowing you to knock them into still upright pins.
Invented in 1904 in Canada. In 5 pin, each pin is worth different point values. Spares are strategic attempts to hit the most valuable pins. A perfect game is 450 points!
Invented in medieval Germany, 9 pin is what most later bowling games are based on. Nine pins are arranged in a diamond shape with a "kingpin" in the middle. Knocking all the pins over earns 9 points. Knocking all the pins over but the kingpin earns 12!
Knock over pins by throwing a barrel-shaped 'cheese'! To score points, you first have to knock over the kingpin. It's tricky to master when the ball bounces unpredictably!
Invented in 1904 in New England. Duck pin uses the nearly the same rules as 10 pin, but allows 3 rounds to knock over all the pins. The ball and pins are smaller making precision very important to score well!
Iron pin is the same as normal bowling but one random pin is much heavier than the others. Careful consideration has to be made on how to knock over the heavy pin while also clearing the normal ones.
Bowling on a shuffleboard table! Knock over the pins with a weighted puck.
Traditional skittles game that has been played in British pubs for centuries.
Galaxy Bowling has an option to purchase Candlepin, Duck Pin, Five Pin, Nine Pin, 100 pin, and Iron Pin variants. Ten pin, and spares mode are included.

Longbow - Archery 3D Lite
Adjust your aim, draw your arrow, and strike distant targets to score big!
Shoot for the bullseye in the village, knock over targets on the castle wall, or destroy barrels from horseback along the 4 mile stretch of mountainous terrain. Longbow's three distinct stages are easy to learn but challenging to master. You'll need to consider the wind, distance, and even your trusty steed's speed to consistently score high! Can you shoot an apple off someone's head? Turn a scarecrow into a pin cushion? These challenges and more await!
→ Use your fingers to aim and draw your bow.
→ Three difficulty levels for each game mode. (Try expert mode for an extra challenge!)
→ On-line leaderboards!
→ Detailed 3D graphics and sound!
→ Looks great on phones and tablets!
Can you master the bow and become a true archer?
Slide one finger across the screen to aim.
Press the arrow icon in the corner to draw your bow.
Release the button to fire.
In village mode:
Check the wind speed and direction in the top left corner of the screen.
At the highest difficulty level, the swaying trees, sound of the wind, and dust kicked up by gusts will be your only clues.
Expert mode removes the bow cross-hairs and wind speed from the screen. You'll need to use experience and intuition to score big!
You can earn an extra 10 points if you manage to strike the apple (...not the Adam's apple) in the bonus round.
In castle mode:
Each round is 90 seconds long.
Shoot all targets in a set quickly to score big!
Striking the scarecrow awards bonus points at the end of a round depending where the arrows hit.
Accuracy is important!
In horse archery mode:
Shoot the targets along the highland circuit.
The further away you are when the arrow hits a target, the more bonus points are awarded.
Keep striking targets to maximize the bonus awarded.
Higher difficulty levels increase the horse's speed.

Farm in Thunderstorm Free
I think thunder storms are fascinating and I've only been in a few like this in my lifetime. I wanted to capture the wonder of watching a storm roll in from a rural farmhouse. I would have loved to add the sound of rain hitting the roof and distant rolling thunder, but I figured sounds on a wallpaper might be impractical (let me know if you think otherwise!)

Wanted to try this to change the taste of tap water, around here, tap isnt so tasty.. I think it changes the water to a crisp taste. I used oranges and honey dew mellon, altho when i tasted it, thought it needed more citris. maybe make a little orange juice, syrup, and give it more of a taste of orangelemon aid.
This is wonderful! What I can add is that the cucumber flavors the water more strongly than does the lemon. So, I usually put about half the amount of cucumber as lemon to balance out the flavors. This is a great way to get yourself to drink more of that healthy water!!!
This was so very refreshing. I am now keeping a pitcher of it in my fridge at the studio for my customers to enjoy and they all rave about the WildWays Water! LOL I use limes or oranges with the cukes and have found any citrus to be grand! Thank you so much for posting this!
I do this often. For dinner, we almost always have water with our meal. This makes it especially nice when we have guests. Someone always comments on the cucumber. Refreshing, clean and doesn't overpower your meal.
I first had this water at Esperanza's Spa in Cabo (Mexico), but they used lime instead of lemon. We love it! They serve it at room temperature which is also wonderful. I love the smell of the cucumber in the water!
Hey, this is really good! I was a little skeptical, but I do love cucumber, so I thought it might turn out well. It sure did.
Wonderful and refreshing! This is making it a lot easier to get my glasses of water in each day. This will be a constant in my fridge. The funny thing is a day after I made this water at home, I went to my salon and they had it there too!
I live in Kansas City, where the heat index has been well over 100 degrees for a week, and it is NOT a dry heat. This stuff is a perfect antidote. It starts off with the lemon flavor, and then finishes with the cucumber. I've already gotten my mom hooked on this, and my DH chose this over bourbon. We keep a pitcher in the fridge and top it off when we get a glass; this is day three and the flavor is only slightly starting to fade. LOVE THIS STUFF!!!
this was good i have a terrible sweet tooth but bcos im on a diet no sugary drinks for me this was nice n refreshing the pitcher looked so cute with the lemon n cucumber slices floating on the top !!! this is healthy too as cucumber is known to reduce blaoting and water retention it did help for me !! thanks
I'm surprised how good this is! Nice to have a simple drink that is without sugar, taste this refreshing. Thanks for sharing!

The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (original 1986; edition 2002)
by Douglas Adams, Neil Gaiman (Introduction)
Work details
The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide by Douglas Adams (1986)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
My friends gave me high expectations of this book but it wasn't for me. I enjoyed the beginning (the only part I managed to get through) where it was set in England and the characters were still believable. I enjoy fantasy but this was too fantastic for me.
Its a very nice series, but a pain to get back into if you put it away for too long
An excellent absurdist science fiction novel. A little heavy on the "oh the whole meaning of existence is meaningless" stuff, but Adams seems to know what he's doing.
Best in audio version narrated by Stephan Fry. He does the voices perfectly.
I don't usually listen to audio books, but this was written for radio and is amazing in that format.
The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide a collection of all 5 books in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. The first three of these, which were originally a trilogy, are clever and hilarious and these alone make the collection worthwhile. The final two titles, added later, unfortunately do not live up to the quality of the original trilogy. In fact, I'd rather refuse to even accept the last title as canon. Still, I highly recommend this collection simply for the first three. They're probably my favorite trilogy I've ever read.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0345453743, Paperback)It's safe to say that The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is one of the funniest science fiction novels ever written. Adams spoofs many core science fiction tropes: space travel, aliens, interstellar war--stripping away all sense of wonder and repainting them as commonplace, even silly.
This omnibus edition begins with The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, in which Arthur Dent is introduced to the galaxy at large when he is rescued by an alien friend seconds before Earth's destruction. Then in The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Arthur and his new friends travel to the end of time and discover the true reason for Earth's existence. In Life, the Universe, and Everything, the gang goes on a mission to save the entire universe. So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish recounts how Arthur finds true love and "God's Final Message to His Creation." Finally, Mostly Harmless is the story of Arthur's continuing search for home, in which he instead encounters his estranged daughter, who is on her own quest. There's also a bonus short story, "Young Zaphod Plays It Safe," more of a vignette than a full story, which wraps up this completist's package of the Don't Panic chronicles. As the series progresses, its wackier elements diminish, but the satire of human life and foibles is ever present. --Brooks Peck

SABnzbd Client
It is possible to have different profiles and to switch between them
The last Binnewz indexed files are available through RSS stream. The application now manages android "shares", which enables to interact with other applications like a RSS reader with a stream on binsearch may send the NZB link to SABnzbd application and be downloaded directly :)
You can also search NZB files on some indexing sites or on some newsgroups search engines. You can find your files on usenet.
Once this file has been found on an engine (Binnewz, SearchBin, Nzb index, yabsearch, mysterbin, nzb club ...), or an RSS stream, the nzb is directly sent to the SABnzbd+ server. (It is not downloaded through the phone, which avoids the use of too much bandwith ).
SABnzbd client can also upload a local NZB to your SABnzbd server (you can save nzb when your server is down and upload them all when your server is up again)
This application is not a client for the newsgroups ! It works on 1.5 to 4.2 devices
We do not index newsgroup, so we can not check the search results.
However, if a file that does not respect the laws was returned by the search, you can contact us to filter it.
!!! We are not responsible for the use to be made with this application ??and disclaim any liability. Make sure you are allowed to download those files before doing so !!!
If a nzb search engine is missing, feel free to send us a mail with the URL of the NZB search engine.
Support for https !
If you have any issues, please contact us instead of writing a comment on the application, so we can help you (and fix the issue if there is one)

This was my first experience with bnb and it was a perfect introduction. My husband and I are on our honeymoon from FL and road-tripping down the coast staying at various secluded places on the way. Terry was an absolutely wonderful host from the introduction, tour, information provided was very concise so there really were not any questions throughout our stay. We only were able to stay for an evening and left early but after our experience, wished we were able to stay longer because it was just so pleasant. Our favorite part was the fire that was built upon our arrival down by the creek and the fireplace in the cabin; then the following morning running into 2 baby deer on the property on my walk to the creek. The neighborhood was great and the property is your own private area really. I also loved the personal touches included with the home grown apples and fresh flowers included in our kitchen-both fantastic. Very responsive and available prior and during the stay via text and phone and was very helpful in providing suggestions for dinner.
My wife and I had a wonderful time spending three nights in this cozy cabin, tucked away in ten acres of forest, streams, ponds and apple orchards. Our host was extremely welcoming, warm and attentive. We rediscovered the quiet of a cozy cabin and walks in the forest. Perfect!
Terry was an excellent host. We had some logistical challenges getting to the cabin and he was graciously helpful. He toured us around his 10 acre site and the cabin and shared some beautiful fresh Dahlia's with us. He was easy, responsive and friendly.
The cabin is as advertised: a cozy cabin in the forest. As good a surround and view as you could ask for. A private path down to a secluded river where Terry has prepared a fire for evening cozy. A great iron wood stove that is easy to use and keeps the place so warm we opened several windows.
There is a microwave and a little refrigerator, but no oven/stove. A nice shower - although as Terry mentioned it requires some nuance to get the hot/cold water dialed in.
We used the cabin as a base of operations into Olympia and to the Peninsula (the Hoh). Its pretty much perfect for that and I'd love to do it again.
Sean and I had an amazing time at Terry's cozy cabin in the forest! His property is beyond beautiful, he had a fireplace next to the creek, great trails to hike around on his property, the Atv ride was so much fun, the place was super clean and comfortable and terry was really nice and had organic apples from his apple trees picked for us, he also told us that we could pick apples if we wanted to, he was a wonderful host and was very helpful to answering any questions we had. We can't wait to visit again!
This cabin is beautiful! The setting makes you feel like you are in the forest-yet you are only 10 minutes to downtown olympia. Terry was so attentive and accommodating. I would stay here again for sure! The cabin was as described- maybe better! I loved it. I wish we had more time to explore the property but my schedule did not allow- though Terry was completely available to us. Highly recommend this cabin.
Thank you Terry!
This was a much needed perfect, quiet weekend away. The photos did not do justice to this beautiful, secluded cabin. The ATV ride was a real treat (especially since we arrived at 7:30am, got confirmation we were awake!) and the property and cabin were great. We bought food at BBQed, walked the trails, lit a fire down by the stream and made sure to take advantage of the full experience. We couldn't have been happier. Definitely will be returning.
Nice place! Very quiet and secluded. Perfect for our weekend getaway. Terry was a very conscientious host - had a fire ready to go in the wood stove, nice tour of the premises on his ATV. Lovely location by the creek in the woods.

I have been working at Koch Business Solutions full-time (more than 5 years)
Private company means not driven towards quarterly earnings. Company principles actually impact the way things are done. Lots of smart people and most that are trying to do the right thing.
More focus on value to company, minimal concern over employee job satisfaction and fulfillment. Small company-attitude yet supporting one of largest private companies in the US. A few leaders still in leadership roles that make you wonder why they are still there.
Get out of the command and control mentality and delegate some decision rights.

The best thing about Koch Business Solutions is that you can use the company to get into another company at Koch Industries.Cons
Middle and upper management preach the traditional MBM tactics and culture, but do not practice it themselves. There is no clear direction for employees. My political views are much the same as the Koch Brothers, but I do not feel my employer should force them on me. When you ask and encourage employees on ways to make the company better, utilize the ideas, and also reward the employee for the idea.Advice to ManagementAdvice

After 14 months bleeding again.....
I am 41 (42 in December) - knew I was starting perimenopause at 35. I had so many symptoms - starting getting migraines, my periods changed to shorter cycles. Eventually started skipping some for 3 months and then it would come back. Had hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms. Doctors kept saying, no...you're too young, even though my blood levels said otherwise. I had my last "official" period in August 2010. I had some spotting in January 2011 for about 5 days and about 2 days of spotting in March 2011. Nothing since. Then about 2 weeks ago my breasts felt full and tender - this lasted for 2 weeks. Then 4 days ago I started bleeding again - it started out watery and rust colored. Now it's been bright red and kind of heavy at times. Prior to all this I had been having pretty constant watery vaginal discharge for many months - no odor, itching, irritation. One doctor said it was due to vaginal atrophy. I have been to many different doctors in the last year - my original doctor left my insurance and I haven't been able to find someone I like. Everyone kept wanting me to take birth control pills - I did not want to. I tend to try and take a more natural approach to things - I believe in a combination of alternative and conventional medicine. In the March and April of this year though I had an ultrasound, MRI and blood work done. None of them showed anything of concern - no endometrial thickening, masses, etc. My MRI did say I had what was called a 6mm follicle on my left ovary in April. Not sure what that meant. My blood work was consistent with menopausal levels - high FSH, lower estrogen.
Anyway, this bleeding has me nervous. I've been having cramping too and when I would stand up from laying down there would be quite a bit, maybe that's normal though, but also some clots on the paper and in the toilet. I've been reading up on it and it seems there can be so many reasons for this from this being a period again (which I wonder about since I am still on the young side for menopause), to vaginal atrophy, to hormonal imbalance to cancer. Both my parents died of cancer young (brain and kidney) so I just get scared of that word. I am seeing a gyn tomorrow. I think the bleeding is slowing down somewhat - today is the 4th day. But I'm just curious if anyone else has been through something similar either being around my age and going into menopause only to have bleeding again over a year later or going over a year without a period and then bleeding and what the bleeding turned out to be. I just moved to a new area so have to see another new gyn and when I called the office and spoke to a nurse she just said that I was probably just having some post-menopausal bleeding like it was no big thing. I just didn't think any bleeding after what was considered menopause was normal. Also, I wasn't sure if I counted from last August when I had my last official period or from March of this year when I had 2 days of spotting.
Any shared experiences would be really appreciated! Thanks :)
Do you know that perimanopause starts around mid 30's? I suffered from migraines for years, since mid 20's. Now I am doing much better by using the followings,
Organic yam base progesterone cream
Vitamin B complex with Co Q10
Iron supplement (during and after periods)
Lady's Mantle herbal tea (brewed from dried herb)
Fruit smoothies (for better circulation)
I hope the above suggestions will help you, especially stop your bleeding. When I had my periods for 6 weeks, Lady's mantle tea mixed with a little Shepard's Purse was my lifesaver. My ultrasound results were also normal at the time.
There are many books you can find online relating to women's health and perimenopause. If you want to know more about natural progesterone, you can start with books written by Dr. John Lee and Dr. Virginia Hopkins.
Good luck to you.

MLB Franchise Notes: Rays To Maintain Payroll If Still In Race
Published July 13, 2009
|Rays Owner Sternberg Proud Team Ranks
As "Most Affordable" In ESPN Study
NEEDED BOOST: In Phoenix, Nick Piecoro notes more than halfway through the D'Backs' home schedule, "attendance and revenues are down," but team execs said that "action by the club's ownership group earlier this year will prevent the losses from negatively affecting major-league payroll in coming years." D'Backs Managing General Partner Ken Kendrick said that the club raised $50M "in a cash call to team investors earlier this year, a move that he said was designed as a safeguard against the slow economy." The team through Friday was averaging 25,437 fans per game at Chase Field, down 14.8% from the same period last season. D'Backs President & CEO Derrick Hall said that the club's loss in projected revenues this year "could be about equal to" the $10M raised for '09, but it "appears the cash infusion might have helped prevent ownership from asking General Manager Josh Byrnes to slash payroll" (ARIZONA REPUBLIC, 7/13).

MAKING FANS BLUE: SI.com's Jon Heyman reported the Blue Jays "could still wind up keeping" P Roy Halladay, who has been mentioned in trade rumors. Blue Jays officials have suggested to other teams that they are "concerned about the fan backlash in Toronto, which apparently has been significant enough for them to take note" (SI.com, 7/10).

The Texan Army 1835-46
By Stuart Reid; Richard Hook (Illustrator)
(Osprey Publishing, Paperback, 9781841765938, 48pp.)
Publication Date: October 22, 2003
Shop Local
Enter your zip code below to find indies closest to you.
The volunteer army that fought the Mexican dictator Santa Anna from 1835 to 1836 was immortalized in the epic battle of the Alamo. Taking arms initially to fight for the restoration of the liberal Mexican constitution of 1824, the volunteers were eventually fighting for outright Texan independence. This book describes and illustrates the group of men who, despite the diversity of their origins, equipment, weaponry and dress, were united in a common cause that reached its culmination in the victory of San Jacinto. The turbulent decade (1836–46) of Texan independence is also covered, and the little-studied army and navy of the Republic of Texas examined.
Stuart Reid was born in Aberdeen in 1954. His lifelong interest in military history has led to a longstanding involvement in historical re-enactment, which has broadened into work as a military advisor-cum-troop-instructor for film companies. His previous titles for Osprey include a three-volume work in the Men-at-Arms series on King George's Army 1740-1793 and Warrior 21: 'Highland Clansman 1689-1746'.

Last week we saw a few interesting announcements from some of the cloud providers. Also, there were some 'must read' posts published by Microsoft, Amazon and Kinvey. In addition, there were some announcements on new release from Hortonworks and MongoHQ. Yet another important news was the key changes to the leadership team that took place at VMware and HP Cloud.
Here's the summary of the happenings from the cloud world during the last week.
Beginning with the popular PaaS player, Windows Azure has provided guidance on the optimal approach to handle restarts correctly by using 'OnStop' Method. This method would eventually help in avoiding data loss, data corruption, quick shutdowns, restarts and handles new requests efficiently. In addition, they have also published a new tutorial series and a sample application that shows how to work with Windows Azure Storage tables, queues, and blobs in a multi-tier application that uses ASP.NET MVC 4 and ASP.NET Web API. Towards the later part of the week they have published the postmortem report of the Azure storage disruption that took place on December 28th, 2012.
Dominant cloud player Amazon, has brought a new feature for changing the name and endpoint of an existing Amazon RDS database instance via the AWS Management Console, the Amazon RDS API, or the Amazon RDS Command Line toolkit. This makes it simple to handle changes made to the RDS instances. They have also compiled a useful post with the list of AWS technical whitepapers, articles and videos that were generated in 2012.
Somewhere in the midst of last week, a couple of key transitions happened in the industry. VMWare's CTO Steve Herrod stepped down to venture into the VC world as a managing director at General Catalyst. Followed by this was the news that the head of HP Converged Cloud initiative, Zorawar "Biri" Singh has s moved out of the company. These two changes will have significant impact on the industry.
Hortonworks, the Big Data platform provider has released Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP) 1.2, which includes the latest version of Apache Ambari for comprehensive management, monitoring and provisioning of Apache Hadoop clusters. MongoHQ, the provider of NoSQL-as-a-Service has announced the updates coming with the MongoDB 2.4 release. The improvements include Full-text search, change in the internal JavaScript engine and hashed indexes. Kinvey, a BaaS provider, shared useful information on the basics of IaaS and the key factors to consider before adopting IaaS. Also, Kinvey has updated the popular Backend as a Service Ecosystem Map which is in its third version now.
Stay tuned for more news and analysis!

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...
