BraveSmart is the most addictive puzzle game you'll ever play. You'll pick it up in a second – and won't be able to put it down for hours.
• Combine three wood, metal or rock tiles to build a cottage, three cottages for a mansion, right up to majestic castles.
• Outfox the sheep to make the most of your space, and make sure you don't get boxed in behind treacherous rocks.
Play BraveSmart now!
Scotland, the beginning of the Middle Ages. For long years, the Clans have hidden from the Sidhe, the mythical creatures of legend. But now, the dark ages are past and the bright modern Middle Age has set in. Three brave Clans have taken to resettle the deserted Highlands. But, alas, Clan Woodhead, Clan Tinears and Clan Stonehands can't decide on a common course of action and hinder each other's efforts. Also, the sheep are quite enjoying the freedom on the unsettled land and might move against them.
The Clans look for a Hero to unite them. Failing that they'd settle for a man with good organizational skills.
You are that man, called the "BraveSmart" for your brains and willingness to deal with the stubborn Clansmen.
Go forth, resettle the Highlands!
(But watch out for the sheep.)

Triple Town
* Editor's Choice on Google Play!!! :-)
* Runner up, indie game of 2011 - Edge Magazine
* Runner up, social game of 2011 - Gamasutra.com
Triple Town is an original puzzle game in which you try to grow the greatest possible city. The larger the city you build, the more points you score. You build your city by matching three or more game-pieces: combine three grasses to make a bush, three bushes to make a tree... until you've filled the board with houses, cathedrals and castles. Along the way, you'll have to outwit giant bears who will try to block your progress.
How large can you grow your dream city before the board fills and the game ends?
UNLIMITED TURNS: This game is free, but we need to earn a living somehow. So eventually, after playing for a while, you will run out of turns and will need to wait for them to refresh over time, or you can buy more turns with the free coins you earn in the game. OR, if you love the game and would like to support small independent game developers like us, you can purchase unlimited turns *forever* for a one-time fee. If you do, you can use them on *any* compatible Android device you own (that supports Google Play.) Just install the game on your other Android devices and select "restore unlimited turns" in the game's options menu.
Please note that while Triple Town may work with devices that have been modded and are running custom ROMs, we cannot guarantee that it will work. If you have modded your devices, please be aware that you are using Triple Town at your own risk.

"Sprinkle is a solid puzzle game in a similar vein as Crush the Castle or Angry Birds, yet carries gameplay and an identity distinct from either." 4/4 Must have - [Slide To Play]
"Sprinkle makes fighting fire with physics (and water, of course) a heck of a lot of fun" 4.5 / 5 - [148Apps]
"The game quickly made its way to every member of my family" - [ArsTechnica]
Using a water cannon mounted on a crane, players must adjust the height and angle of the cannon to fight fires, move obstacles, spin wheels and activate traps in this challenging water-physics based puzzler! But squirt carefully as you will run out of water and the less water you use, the more drops you earn!
Sprinkle is available for devices running Android 2.3 or greater!
Using some of the most realistic water physics seen on an Android device yet, Sprinkle is a brain-teasing game that will have players straining to figure out each puzzle and obstacle.
Sprinkle features:
Amazing water physics – Some of the most realistic water physics ever seen on an Android device make Sprinkle an exciting and addictive puzzler.
Brain-teasing puzzles – What starts as simply pointing and spraying to quench each fire becomes much more challenging through the 72 levels, as players must overcome the intricacies of each puzzle before time and water run out.
Blocks, boulders, and cogs oh my – Use the power of your water cannon to move blocks of ice and boulders, spin giant cogs, and depress traps inorder to reach and extinguish every last fire.
The inhabitants of Titan, a moon of Saturn, lived out their days peacefully in their straw hut homes – until space tourists from Earth crashed through Saturn's rings, bringing a storm of flaming asteroids crashing down on the Titans. To combat the widespread fires threatening their homes, the Titans have built a massive water cannon. And they need you to man it!

You are a young Prince, sent by your father to learn magic at Bogsmarts, a boarding school for the spoilt and untalented aristocrat youth.
When you return after two years with a B.A. in Petty Magic, all has changed in your father's land:
Your father has died and your ugly aunts and uncles have carved up the Kingdom among them. You throw a tantrum, but to no avail: your relatives suggest you go back to school and leave politics to the grown-ups.
But you are a man now! You sell your jeweled teddy bear, collect a few trusty soldiers and set out to KICK THE GREEDY BUSTARDS out of their castles.
Which are rightfully YOUR castles, damn it!

Daniel Bice, the Journal Sentinel's watchdog columnist, holds politicians and the powerful accountable
Sheriff David Clarke set to speak at a second Republican fundraiser
Milwaukee County Sheriff David A. Clarke Jr., who runs as a Democrat, must have really enjoyed the publicity he got for his gig as a keynote speaker at Republican fundraiser last month.
Because Clarke is doing another one.
The Milwaukee County Republican Party is raising campaign cash with a special dinner it has dubbed "Celebrate Our Community" set for Oct. 11 at the Italian Community Center. Clarke shares top billing for the event with a Republican legislative leader and a conservative talk-show host.
"Our emcee will be Vicki McKenna of WISN Radio," the invite says. "Confirmed speakers are Sheriff David A. Clarke and Rep. Robin Vos, Speaker of the State Assembly."
Tickets purchased in advance of the dinner cost $45 per person. They are $55 each at the door. An online invitation also offers Republican Party membership at levels ranging from $18 to $1,000.
Many other top Republicans -- including Gov. Scott Walker and U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson -- have been invited to attend the popular event.
Told of the upcoming GOP soiree, Milwaukee County Democratic Party Chairman Sachin Chheda renewed his call for Clarke to run as a Republican in his 2014 re-election bid -- knowing it would be nearly impossible for a Republican to win that race in the heavily Democratic county.
Chheda is also running the campaign for Clarke opponent Chris Moews, a Democrat.
"If (Clarke) wants to raise money for Republicans, that's reasonable because he is a right-wing Republican," Chheda said. "And since he's a Republican, he should run as one."
The campaign team for Clarke declined to comment on the speaking engagement. The sheriff has been busy finishing his master's degree in "security studies" at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, Calif.
On Sept. 14, Clarke defended speaking at a fundraiser for the Republican Party of Wisconsin - 4th Congressional District by saying he had a First Amendment right to talk and meet with any group. He also argued that the sheriff's race should be nonpartisan.
"I go where I want to go," Clarke said at Joe's K Ranch in Cudahy. "I associate with who I want to associate with."
So has the Milwaukee County Democratic Party ever considered asking Clarke to headline one of their money-raising efforts?
Chheda said the sheriff spoke at a monthly meeting of the local Democrats several years ago but refused to take questions. Clarke's behavior was "immature," Chheda said, and said he has never been invited back.
"As for who we have at fundraisers, we prefer speakers who treat people with respect and offer interesting, illuminating perspectives," Chheda said in a final swipe.
The county chapter of the state Democratic Party has endorsed Clarke's Democratic primary challenger in the past two races -- but to no avail. Clarke, who has been elected three times, calls himself an "independent Democrat."

Capitalizing on Google's forecast that annual online display ad investment will reach US$200 billion globally by 2020, the media trading provider aims to offer advanced tech solutions to advertisers.
With more display ad tech players - the DSPs, agency trading desks, and exchanges - launching in Asia Pacific, mediaQuark, a media trading tech provider, aims to offer these players a competitive advantage through its advanced trading solutions for the region.
"Targeting and bidding algorithms play an important role in programmatic, yet most buyers use the exact same targeting methods and bidding algos. Even the really big buyers," notes Mikko Kotila, CEO for mediaQuark.
The former founder and CEO for STATSIT says they're seeing a surprising lack of sophistication in the way both publishers and advertisers approach media trading.
It wants buy-side players to approach automated media trading from a more macro perspective.
"The programmatic market is essentially about investing in media, but you don't hear much talk about investor psychology, market conditions, or risk modeling. The kind of things an investor would typically be thinking about," Kotila adds.
In Asia, most of the buzz around programmatic buying is in Australia, Japan, Singapore, China, and India.
However, each of these markets is at varying levels of growth and some may not have established specialized firms focusing on media planning and attribution or verification/privacy within the ecosystems, for instance, compared to more matured markets in the West.
MediaQuark noticed that the biggest gap in Southeast Asia was around the use of data and algorithms particularly with data reduction, processing efficiency, and computational intelligence.
Its goal is to reach out to trading desks, DSPs, DMPs, exchanges, or even a brand that is serious about building competitive technology capabilities for programmatic media trading.
The privately funded start-up currently has eight employees, mostly scientists and programmers, based in Singapore to service clients in the country.
MediaQuark is eyeing Sydney, Australia next.
In terms of product development, the media trading tech provider will focus on supporting English language capabilities and other regional languages.

Pre-Release Champion Atlas $18.99
This is the Atlas you have been waiting for. Each of these flight plates are high in clarity and tinted with ice colors. All of these discs are 178-180 grams, have a stiff feel, and are quite flat on top.
These discs will soon enter mass production and be released to our dealers, but you can test them here first.
The Atlas features a new two-part molding process that allows the combination of two different plastics in the rim and the flight plate. The Atlas allows for a better grip where it counts while still maintaining its firmness and stiffness for maximum control. The two color design not only looks good, but adds better visibility as well. As for flight, this is a very straight flyer with a slight but smooth fade.

Will my bulbs bloom again?
Two years ago I bought a bunch of amaryllis bulbs and planted them in containers. It was late summer, but they set leaves and flowered right away.
After the flowers dried, I expected the bulbs to go dormant, but they just went into cycles of producing new leaves over and over again.
Last summer was incredibly dry and hot, so 25 months later they finally went dormant for the first time. I dug them up and they look really healthy and HUGE - I'd say bigger than a handball.
Their natural cycle here in Brazil is to flower in september and then the leaves die by late march. Is it possible that they didn't bloom these past 2 years because they were adjusting, since during the 1st year they were completely off their natural cycle? Or could it be something else?
Also, should I leave them in their containers or is it better to keep them completely dry?
Thank you!
Hi! When you buy bulbs they have usually been stored in such a manner so that when the customer gets them in their hands, they're ready to bloom. This is what happened with yours! Many people on this list grow their bulbs as evergreen, and don't force a dormancy.
Typically, the bulbs will go dormant during the cold part of the year. During this time, they don't need water, and it's okay to leave them in the pots as long as they stay dry. Otherwise, they may rot. If you feel more comfortable taking them out of the soil during the dormancy, that should be okay too. I leave mine in pots in Texas so I don't have to continually repot and disturb the roots. I have pretty good luck getting them to bloom again. In their natural cycle, after they've been dormant, you'll see them start to green up again. Typically they will send up a bloom scape, but some may send up a few leaves first. Once you see green, you can start watering again.
Good luck!!!
Hi, I purchased an Amaryllis back in December of 2011. It bloomed beautifully as you can see in the next picture.
Since then I've never been lucky enough to have it bloom again. That's over 2 years without blooms. It always has leaves on it. I never fertilized it and just kept watering it. It lived on the sill of a south facing window. I never knew if it had gone dormant, which I doubt, because it always had green leaves on it. I never took it out of the pot nor did I place it in a cool dark basement.
Last August, I moved from New York City where I lived and purchased the plant. I cut off the leaves and pulled the bulb off the pot and packed it in a plastic bag.
I now live in Panama City, Panama in Central America. It is hot and humid here most of the year. The night time temperature does not go below 72 here in the city. I planted the bulb after it spent about 4 months in a plastic bag. It has tons of leaves now as you can see in the next picture.
I noticed that the leaves are not as firm looking and green as they were a couple of months ago. Does that mean that they are going to turn brown and fall off? I don't see any new leaves sprouting out. It's never had 7 on it at the same time either. I just started fertilizing it in the last two weeks with miracle gro all purpose plant food 24-8-16. I am watering it every other day very lightly, trying to keep it moist and not wet. It's in a balcony so it doesn't get rained on.
Keeping in mind that I now live in the tropics where the temperature is high all the time. My questions are:
1. Do I need to force it into dormancy? How is that done?
2. What can be done to make it bloom again?
3. I've read elsewhere that people put the whole pot with the bulb inside their refrigerator. If I choose to do this, when should I do it and what is exactly the procedure to follow? Do I cut off all leaves or wait for them to drop naturally? Do I make a straight cut across to have a cleancut? how far down? Can I put it inside a plastic bag before I place it in the fridge? How long should I keep it there? and what do I do when I bring it out?
Bottom line, will it ever bloom again?

ATLANTA — Pinch-runner Jeff Baker scored the go-ahead run in the eighth inning when reliever Ryan Mattheus hit Andrelton Simmons' uniform with a bases-loaded pitch that helped the Atlanta Braves beat the Washington Nationals 5-4 on Saturday.
Jason Heyward and Freddie Freeman homered for the Braves, who have won the first two games in the series and nine of 13.
Atlanta moved within 6½ games of first-place Washington in the NL East. The Braves began the game with a seven-game lead over third-place Los Angeles in the NL wild-card race.
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — As a defensive coordinator and head coach, Mike Nolan has just one victory in seven tries against quarterback Peyton Manning.
Nolan, in his first season as coordinator of the Atlanta Falcons, hopes to change his luck when Manning and the Denver Broncos visit the Georgia Dome on Monday night.
To beat Manning, Nolan knows the Falcons can't afford too many mistakes. If they do, the four-time NFL MVP will pick Atlanta apart.
FLOWERY BRANCH — With former Pro Bowl cornerback Brent Grimes out for the season, the Atlanta Falcons are counting on four career backups to fill the void.
Losing Grimes to a torn Achilles tendon means the Falcons must face Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos on Monday night without their best cornerback.
Christopher Owens and Dominique Franks have struggled in the past for Atlanta, but the team is counting on both players to take plenty of snaps.
ATLANTA — Mike Minor held Colorado hitless for six innings, Craig Kimbrel earned a four-out save and the Atlanta Braves beat the Rockies 1-0 on Wednesday night.
Minor (8-10) lost a no-hit bid in the seventh when Jordan Pacheco led off with a single. Pacheco stole second, but was stranded when Minor struck out Ramon Hernandez swinging, Chris Nelson on a foul tip and Andrew Brown looking.
Minor allowed one hit, four walks and struck out seven. The left-hander threw 63 of 108 pitches for strikes. He left the game when Tyler Pastornicky pinch-hit for him in the seventh.
FLOWERY BRANCH — Entering his eighth NFL season, Roddy White believes this Atlanta Falcons team is the best he's seen.
"I think this is probably the most talented group we've had up to this point," White said Monday. "We can all run. I think our team's fast. I think we play fast. I think it can be special,"
When the Falcons visit Kansas City on Sunday, they will take the field with as many as nine returning starters on both offense and defense.
FLOWERY BRANCH — John Abraham usually doesn't mind publicly critiquing his teammates on the Atlanta Falcons' defensive line.
Abraham made an exception last year. while Ray Edwards battled injuries during their first season as teammates, Abraham kept quiet.
Edwards is healthy and Abraham is talking.
"I think he was ready last year, but a lot of times your physical being can slow you down," Abraham said Monday. "I think mentally he is prepared and everyone else is mentally prepared to have a good year."
Akeem Dent says he is ready to step in at middle linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons.
Dent, a third-round draft pick from Georgia last year, overcame concussion symptoms to take 28 snaps in Thursday's preseason win at Miami. It was his longest work in a game situation as Atlanta's starting middle linebacker.
ATLANTA — Coach Paul Johnson said Georgia Tech has so much depth that he's yet to decide on starters at several positions.
The Yellow Jackets still have more than two weeks before the season begins Sept. 3 at Virginia Tech, but with two more Atlantic Coast Conference games on the calendar next month, Johnson wants the jobs filled soon.
"I think we've got good depth, probably the most we've had there, too," he said. "In my mind, we're at least two deep at every position. It all works on staying healthy. You lose two guys at the same position and that depth goes like that."
FLOWERY BRANCH — Roddy White doesn't shy away from the diva tendencies of many successful receivers.
He's still confident and outspoken, but White has taken on a different role for the Atlanta Falcons this season.
For the first time in his eight-year career, White is no longer the Falcons' undisputed best player at his position, not with Julio Jones entering his second season.
If White's numbers are down this year, so be it.
FLOWERY BRANCH — As he prepares for his fifth season as starting quarterback of the Atlanta Falcons, Matt Ryan is grateful for all the rest he can get.
The Falcons' coaching staff films each pass Ryan throws in practice before and during the season to give the team an exact number of the wear and tear on his right arm.
It's an approach Atlanta started in 2008 when general manager Thomas Dimitroff and coach Mike Smith were hired and Ryan was drafted with the NFL's third overall pick.

Impressive New Eruption Started at Tavurvur in the Rabaul Caldera, Papua New Guinea
If the eruption in Iceland isn't enough, a new eruption started today at the Tavurvur cone within the Rabaul Caldera. The images from the eruption show an impressive lava fountain and ash plume from the cone producing ash that could disrupt flights across the region. Ash has fallen across much of the area, destroying crops and vegetation as well, but the Rabaul Volcano Observatory reports the eruption is beginning to subside.
UPDATE: Here's a gallery of images from today's eruption.

Wasps, Yellow Jackets and Bees
My veggie garden appears to be having an invasion of stinging insects. Red and black wasps, yellow jackets, and some huge bumblebees. I have not seen any honeybees. This just started yesterday. I currently have okra, chinese long beans, watermelon, and some tomatoes growning, the bugs seem to like them all equally. I would like to go plant some more items, but the very air around my garden beds is humming there are so many insects, this deters me. Is this happening to anyone else? I don't want to risk killing the bees, but the hornets I can do without. I have checked around the eaves of my house for nests, but no luck. Any suggestions?
Wasps will do some polinating as well as the bees, plus they feed on caterpillars and aphids that might be on your plants so they are doing good. They don't sting when foraging. They sting in defense of their nests, not when bumped while foraging so just go among them and do what you want.
I have a problem with the yellow jackets, but the others have never offered to sting and when I see a red wasp with a grasshopper, I want to protect all of them. Roselee is right about their being great pollinators as well as eating bugs, etc. I never bother them (with the exception of the yellow jacket which I am allergic to).
Yes, if you bump a paper wasp nest, or rattle a shrub that they are nesting in, you'll probably get stung, but if you bump a wasp or a bee while they are foraging out in the garden they just move on. Of course, if you step on one in the grass while barefooted you'll probably know it. But for all the good they do I try to let them live as much as is possible.
I got stung by a paper wasp recently when I reached in a bougainvillea plant to dig a hole for a fertilizer pellet and didn't know a nest was in there. I didn't hold it against them. I'd sting too if something was knocking my house around so I'll just leave the nest alone until it's time to put the plant in the greenhouse for the winter. Later when I got pretty close while peering in among the branches to see what got me they didn't do anything.
BTW, if you splash alchohol or hydrogen peroxide on the spot it helps to neutralize the sting.
It's my understanding that it takes several stings over time before you develop an allergy.
My experience is similar to Roselee's. I got stung by a wasp when I dumped all of the ice from the icemaker on top of the (hidden) nest. I really can't blame them for that! This past week, I disturbed a wasp that was flying around/in my black-eyed pea vines, I was looking for pea pods to harvest. It flew away from me. I still need to get out there with a long stick and gingerly look among the leaves/stems to make sure there isn't a nest.
I think the main thing is to be slow and gentle and calm, and when you see them flying around, talk quietly to them, tell them that you're not trying to hurt them. I know it sounds funny, but it allowed my mother to paint around the nests attached to the eaves of the house. She didn't get stung, even though she painted around a number of nests.
Tx Ag, I've had the same experience as your mother in painting right up to the stem of the nest under the eaves. They just got real still and watched. When they start flicking their wings you're getting a little too close for their comfort.
Patty, there's lots of different kinds of wasps that build their nest from wood fibers and saliva making a kind of paper, but the ones pictured on this link look like the more gentle paper wasps that we're talking about.
I have a photo taken when the camera was practically on top of them and they did not object.
Here is a link that might be useful: Paper wasp - Wikipedia ....
Some of these built a nest in the driver's side wing mirror of my truck. I had not driven it in a few weeks because I needed a new battery. When Triple A sent a truck out, I popped the hood. When I got out and shut the door I was stung 3 times. One stung me twice under my right ear. I had to pull it off my face. It made the lymph node swell for about 4 days. Very unpleasant!
Here is a link that might be useful: Red wasps
Ouch! Red wasps are a whole 'nuther' animal. They build their paper nests inside something like a bird house, a hole under the eaves where they can get into the attic, or like inside your wing mirror; and they are more agressive in defending their nests. I've never been stung by them, but Bob has and he said they hurt more than paper wasps.
But the point to the original poster is that even the larger and more agressive red wasps do not sting when they are foraging around plants in the garden either polinating or eating the bad bugs including grasshoppers as Carrie has seen them doing.
I have heard that these insects are great around the garden because they consume aphids, worm eggs as well as the worms, and they do not harm your plants. I have not noticed any web worms this year and i attribute this to these beneficial insects.
Just keep your distance and let them enjoy their meals.
Mud dubbers are the nice ones, paper wasp-hornets make their home out of plant fibers and hang like a globe they do not like to be bothered. Large bumble bees are usually ground bees and you just do not want to disturb their homes-hole-in-the-ground either but do not seem to be much of a problem either. We just have to learn how to live with these bees-wasps-hornets as they provide a lot of help when it comes to keeping down critters we do not need in our gardens. As for mud dobbers I wait until they are not home to move their nest off the house. If they want to live anywhere else I do not mind.
I actually haven't seen hardly any wasps or bees around this year. Kind of unusual, we usually have plenty of red wasps floating around the yard.
I noticed a new flying bug that I can't quite get a good look at, that I've never seen before. It definitely has 2 sets of wings, but it does not have a dragon/damselfly shaped body... It has a body shaped more like a wasp (fat/short rather than skinny and long) except it's probably twice as big as the average red wasp. It never lands and darts around too fast to get a good look at.
No idea if this mystery bug is chasing off the wasps/bees or if it's just taking advantage of the lack of wasps/bees..
Being large, wasp like, and darting around sounds like it might be a 'Cicada killer'. They are interesting creatures and pose no harm, unless you are a cicada.
From the link below: "Solitary wasps (such as the eastern cicada killer) are very different in their behavior from the social wasps such as hornets, yellowjackets, and paper wasps. Cicada killer females use their sting to paralyze their prey (cicadas) rather than to defend their nests; unlike most social wasps and bees, they do not attempt to sting unless handled roughly. Adults feed on flower nectar and other plant sap exudates."
Here is a link that might be useful: About 'cicada killer' on Wikipedia ....
Yeah that's almost definitely them.. A part I left out is the reddish color I see from their wings. I can't tell if they do have 2 sets of wings, but I can see how the shape of them would lead me to believe they have 2 sets..
I'll take a closer look next time I see them, and if they fit it'll put me at ease.. I usually see them while mowing the yard, they seem to like to hover directly over the freshly cut grass which puts me in very close proximity to them. Honey bees don't really bother me, their stings don't even phase me.. But Yellow Jackets, Red wasps and the like do, and that fear only grows as their size does.. As you can imagine, I've been quite nervous while mowing the yard, it seems to draw 5-10 of these things in.
