Recent Bonita Springs, East reviews
"Our second stay at this home was as perfect as the first. The home is clean, spacious, and in a quiet gated golf community. The location is central to beaches in Naples, Bonita Springs and Fort Myers, with a grocery store nearby and shopping just down the highway. The large lanai is definitely a great bonus; we spent many hours out there. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this home to others and we look forward to returning again."
"We enjoyed our one month stay at this clean and spacious condo. Since it was only the two of us, we never used the extra bedroom. However, the den was a great office space for my husband to get his work completed. The kitchen was sufficient and there were plenty of items to use for cooking. We had a wonderful vacation and hope to go back to Vasari again in the future!"
"We spent the month of March in this well-equipped and beautifully laid out home. The location is terrific. We were easily able to get to Ft. Myers airport to pick up our children, run into Downtown Naples for dinner or ride bikes to the beach. We found a number of excellent restaurants locally for dinner and several easily accessible places for breakfast but it was so convenient to have the gas grill on the lanai for bar-b-cueing at home. We lived on the lanai. My husband enjoyed watching March Madness from his vantage point in the pool. I enjoyed the shaded areas sitting and reading. The kitchen lacked for nothing we needed. Our adult children visited and loved the privacy of their own rooms and bathroom. While my husband golfed with his sons in laws, my daughters and I found the shopping opportunities nearby which were bountiful. It was so easy to work with Bob and Linda. They responded immediately to our inquiries and our deposit was delivered to the house the same week we arrived home. Our vacation was outstanding. We relaxed, visited with family and enjoyed meeting the people in this development. We could not have asked for anything more....unless maybe more time next year!"

RIM's recent run is ample proof that it has nailed down the wireless email pretty good. Even our friends at Techdirt are eating humble pie. They are mostly right about everything else, so they are entitled to one or two boo-boos. I am not going to hold against their otherwise excellent blog. Which is why it surprises me that companies like Good, Seven, and Visto keep trying. I don't blame them: there are approximately 50 million mobile workers in the United States and nearly 70% of them would want wireless email, according to The Yankee Group. They came up with this 35 million number by combining the percentage of workers considered mobile professionals and field salesforce, according to the Yankee Group 2004 Corporate Wireless Survey. This is a big enough market for anyone to take a crack at – so what if they face a near impossible climb against much revered and equally loved Crackberry. Today Visto announced that it was taking a gander at the wireless email market, with its Visto Mobile 5.0, and I say good luck to them. (I do like the fact that Visto has a more open and clearly better solution – on paper. I hope to try it out soon enough and report on the results!) The problem I have with all these so called competitors is that they are focusing on the enterprise market and are too dependent on the carriers' largesse to promote their products. My gut feeling is that most people fall in love with Crackberry as individuals and then perhaps convince their corporate masters to adopt the technology. That kind of adoption is tough to compete against. With RIM already on a massive licensing binge, it is going to be tough times for rest of the wireless email crowd.

Extra Life Raises $3.6 Million While Fighting off DDoS Attacks
Extra Lifes gaming charity event that took place over the weekend was a huge success despite being plagued by a series of DDoS attacks.
On Saturday, November 2nd, thousands of players sat down to begin a 25 hour gaming marathon as part of the Extra Life charity event. Extra Life is an organized annual event in which players obtain charitable donors to pledge money towards their gaming marathon. The funds from the event are donated to the local ChildrenÂs Miracle Network Hospitals.
As this weekendÂs event began, someone decided to launch DDoS attacks against the Extra Life website not one, two, or three times, but four. Despite the tasteless efforts by some to ruin the charity event, the more than 32,000 gamers taking part still managed to raise over $3.6 million to benefit charity.

A great deal more information is now emerging about the struggles between former Kansas City U.S. Attorney Tom Graves and main Justice, all of which leaves one puzzling about which side of the law enforcement divide is occupied by main Justice. It seems Graves had constant difficulties with the Civil Rights Division–Graves wanted to prosecute a cross-burning case (exactly the sort of thing that the Civil Rights Division was involved in, back in the old days when its concern was protecting, instead of suppressing, civil rights), but main Justice objected. Kansas City's KMBC TV reports:
Graves told Mahoney that things got particularly bad after a cross-burning case. From the Graves interview and draft provided to Mahoney: "Graves wrote this memo after an angry phone call with the "acting head of the civil rights division, Alex Acosta." Graves said he hung up on Acosta and 2 days later wrote him this memo:
"I am unwilling to negotiate (within Dept. of Justice) to eviscerate and weaken this agreement". Graves said that friends in the department warned him at the time that kind of action could hurt his career. Graves said he also had trouble over Robert Courtney, a local pharmacist who was convicted diluting Cancer drugs. Graves said he wanted to sieze $10 million dollars from Courtney and give it to the victims. And when Washington balked, he said "I got angry." Telling them, "I am not the US Attorney for Washington, I am the US Attorney for western Missouri."
So main Justice intervened to stop civil rights enforcement actions, to support a medicare fraudster and to pressure Graves to bring a fraudulent voter fraud action – which he ultimately refused to sign. And after all this friction, Graves was dismissed and Acosta's deputy, Bradley Schlozman, was sent to Kansas City in his place. This provides much more grist for the hearing with Mr. Schlozman, scheduled for May 15. Or at least it was . . .
Former Kansas City U.S. Attorney Bradley Schlozman writes to advise the Senate Judiciary Committee that he can't appear at the hearing scheduled for May 15 because he will be on vacation. The obstruction continues.

The White House is launching an effort to recruit mentors for disadvantaged black and Latino boys and young men, one early recommendation from President Barack Obama's My Brother's Keeper program.
Mr. Obama in February announced the program, which is designed to provide economic and educational opportunities to young men and boys of color through commitments from foundations, business leaders and public officials. At the time, he directed a task force to report back within 90 days.
"One of the report's key recommendations is ensuring that the public and private sector increase the number of effective and sustained mentors available for these boys and young men," said Broderick Johnson, White House cabinet secretary and chairman of the task force.

Mr. Obama will call on his administration and other adults to mentor or tutor a young person in their communities. There will be a sign-up at http://www.whitehouse.gov/my-brothers-keeper that allows people to pledge and get connected to mentoring programs, Mr. Johnson said.
Additional recommendations include improving data collection and transparency, eliminating suspensions and expulsions in preschool, a new public and private initiative to increase reading time outside of school, increasing high school graduation rates, and expanding job opportunities.
Mr. Obama, stymied in Congress, this year has used the power of his office on several initiatives, including new commitments from businesses to hire the long-term unemployed, work with college presidents to find ways to make higher education more affordable, and this week an effort for deeper research into sports-related concussions.

Football: Defeat fails to silence Pompey fans
Portsmouth 1 Leeds United 5
Monday 25 January 1999
But while the scoreline might scare off the sort of rich and kindly benefactor Pompey fans hope will rescue them from Martin Gregory's ownership, any putative investors actually present at Fratton Park should have formed a more positive view.
While the team were outclassed by a Leeds team rich in promise, the supporters were not. It was no surprise to hear the Pompey Chimes ringing out from the club's biggest crowd in just under five years at kick-off, nor after Luke Nightingale had put them ahead after eight minutes. But to hear them still being belted out eight minutes from the end, after Leeds had scored their fifth was remarkable.
Alan Ball, whose name was lustily and approvingly chanted long after his team had folded, described them as "fabulous" and David O'Leary, the Leeds boss, called them "a credit to the club".
Literally so. With the club's estimated pounds 4m-plus debt increasing by pounds 40,000 every week, the ground still in need of major refurbishment and most of the better players already sold, the supporters may be Portsmouth's only credit on the balance sheet.
They are, however, a very real asset. As Newcastle and Sunderland have shown, a large and dedicated supporter base can provide the financial and emotional drive to transform clubs. But first the foundations must be in place and all that passion will go to waste at Portsmouth unless it is matched in the boardroom.
Having fought off one winding-up order in midweek Portsmouth face another one, issued by the Inland Revenue, on 3 February. There are suggestions that Gregory may offload his 97 per cent stake in the club before then but Ball did not seem optimistic. Nor are the fans who held up banners calling for Gregory to sell. They fear Gregory is planning to build houses on Fratton Park - it is thought the clause preventing this happening until the club has been relocated lapses in July.
While Portsmouth's future is uncertain, Leeds' appears very bright. Even with eight leading players unavailable they looked a slick outfit, brimming with pace and movement. They lined up for kick off with seven players on the half-way line and maintained that commitment to attack throughout.
"It suits our style to go forward," said David Hopkin, who was an outstanding captain in midfield. "We have a lot of young attacking players with a lot of pace and a lot of talent. Everybody wants the ball, they are all comfortable with it."
O'Leary added: "I believe the players are enjoying it, this is an extension of what we do in training. Anyone who has seen us over the last few months would think: `This is a side which gives you a go'.
"They want to work for you. With the kids we are young together. They know deep down they are safe in my hands. I'm their friend and they come and see me, they trust me. They know I got in as a kid and think: `Maybe he knows what he's talking about'.
"It wasn't a gamble to play them. When I was the coach I kept asking George [Graham] to play them, once I became manager I was picking the team myself so I thought I'd pick them. They've not surprised me, I have been working with them for two years and knew their quality. But we have got to add a bit, a few quick fixes. I've spent hardly any money and I've had to flog them a bit too much. The difference between us and Manchester United when their crop came through is that they had real quality senior players and could bring people in and leave them out when they needed to."
Not that Leeds were all fresh from kindergarten, they finished with three teenagers but started with just one, Jonathon Woodgate, and had a vein of experience running through the side from Nigel Martyn and David Wetherall, to Gunnar Halle, Hopkins and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, all 26 or over.
Instead it was Portsmouth who had the youngest player on the pitch, Nightingale, who had been at school during the week. He put Pompey ahead, following good work by Jeff Peron and Steve Claridge, but it was to prove a brief glimpse of glory.
Two minutes later Leeds levelled with a bad goal to concede. No defender noticed Harte stealing up for a short corner routine, and none picked up Wetherall as he headed the subsequent cross in. Harte scored from a free-kick foolishly conceded by Sammy Igoe six minutes later and, though Pompey played some good football at this stage, with Claridge often involved, that was it.
The third goal, clinically finished by Harry Kewell, knocked the heart out of Portsmouth, who, said Ball angrily, "capitulated". Bruno Ribeiro added a cruel fourth after his shot was massively deflected off Adrian Whitbread and Clyde Wijnhard completed the rout with a classy fifth from Kewell's cross.
There could, and should, have been more with Hasselbaink notably profligate, but Portsmouth might also had had consolation as Martyn produced two exceptional saves to deny Michalis Vlachos and Claridge.
"I said to David O'Leary he's got a fabulous future," said Ball. "You can see the excitement, there's ability throughout the side and the kids are tremendous. It's all there for him."
One questioner asked: "Are you envious?" Ball, whose sponsored Mercedes was recently repossessed, replied: "I'm happy here, but it's a massive job at the moment."
Goals: Nightingale (8) 1-0; Wetherall (10) 1-1; Harte (16) 1-2; Kewell (50) 1-3; Ribeiro (70) 1-4; Wijnhard (82) 1-5.

We propose you a very healthy breakfast: whole grain oats porridge. It is a good complement for good macrobiotic breakfast, besides being ideal for a cold winter morning.

Jennifer Garner headed out to a meeting yesterday morning, but she was with her daughters, Violet and Seraphina, by the afternoon to take in a magic show in Santa Monica. The girls are home again in LA after leaving NYC earlier this week, and Jennifer made sure that Seraphina stayed busy during their journey. Jen had been in the Big Apple working on Arthur with her frequently shirtless costar Russell Brand. She and Russell were together to ride a horse on set and even shoot a hilarious wedding scene before Jen jetted out of town.

Pep talk: Muhyiddin talking to Wanita Umno members after visiting the election machinery at Taman Mesra in Kajang.
KAJANG: The people should not allow the Opposition to simply create a situation that calls for an election to be held.
"Can we live in a situation where election is held one after another? Is that fair?
"If this happens, when will we have time to do work and serve the people?" asked Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
He added that if the Opposition planned to have other kinds of movements similar to the "Kajang move", the voters should punish them.
Earlier, PKR's strategic director Rafizi Ramli had said that PKR might organise other initiatives like the "Kajang move", which resulted in the by-election in this constituency.
Muhyiddin said since it was Rafizi who raised the idea, he should volunteer to step down to allow others to contest in his Pandan parliamentary seat.
"The idea reflects their political greed. I don't think the people will buy this plan of theirs.
"I am sure voters will be tired of being made to go to the ballot boxes without any good and valid reason," he added.
On the Kajang by-election, the Barisan deputy chairman said there has been significant improvement in voters' acceptance of Barisan compared to the last general election.
Heartened by the improvement, Muhyiddin has asked all the 16 district voting centres to intensify their campaign activities and reach out to as many voters possible.
"The campaign period is still a long way and we do not want to be over confident.
"As the underdog, we realise that we need to work harder to secure a victory for our candidate Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun and this is what we will be doing," he said after visiting four voting district centres here.s

Recent Lewis Smith Lake reviews
"The "herding of the cats" to select a place and time is always difficult. But this year it was a HOMERUN with Treetops lake house. The place was incredible, and perfect for our group of high school girlfriends. The house was a perfect size and fit for us. Once we arrived we did not leave as the water, the dock, the porches, the kitchen, the living spaces were comfortable and our weekend oasis. We had planned to go see parts of Cullman or to do dinner out, but once you arrive you cannot bare to leave. The communication with owners was easy, and we found them to be very open, welcoming, and ready for us to enjoy their home as much as they do! Thank you for sharing your home!"
"The house was just what we expected, everything we needed good beds, beautiful view. We traveled from Budapest for a 3 week stay and wanted a nice place for Family to come together for the Holidays and Waterville was perfect. Thanks again for sharing your lovely lake home and we would love to rent again in the future"

Free online games for young children & Big Kids to play on Learn4Good.com. We believe that we have put some of the best kids' games in one playing area. From classic to newest, from easy-to-play to the more challenging. Have fun online with your friends and family!
Ho! Ho! Ho! Get ready for a brain-teasing yuletide drawing adventure where you have to skillfully sketch lines of snow to help Santa Claus recover a bunch of lost gifts (nicely wrapped presents) in each level. Snow Line is a challenging physics-based skill game for kids where you have to carefully guide Santa's sleigh across obstacles and ravines up to the summit of the mountain using a special Snow Crayon. In each tricky level, you have to carefully direct Santa toward the finish line by creating pathways and bridges of snow, ensuring he picks up all of the gift-wrapped boxes along the way. This is no time to be singing along to "Jingle Bells", Santa needs your help!
This fun, Christmas-themed puzzle should be ideal for kids who like to exercise their creative engineering abilities, as you have to methodically create channels, paths and bridges to guide Santa to his goal. There's plenty of potential trial and error required before you find a suitable solution in each level, so keep drawing those lines of snow. Your creative abilities are thoroughly tested as you attempt to engineer a smooth journey for Santa through the treacherous mountainous terrain. There's still plenty of time to be good and to practice helping others, so let's reach our "peak" for the Holiday Season. Good luck, and happy path building!
Online Maths Workout 2 Game is both an easy-to-play yet challenging game for young math enthusiasts looking to improve their skills. Your aim is to answer as many mathematical problems correctly as you can. However, it is not as easy as it may seem, since all the problems have to be answered in 60 seconds! Enter your name (or nickname) and choose the level of difficulty (easy, normal, hard) or the type of math you would like to practice (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division). Try to beat other highscores and see how high you can get in the leader boards. If you are good enough, your name and score will be entered in the highscores tables.
Tip / Advice on large number multiplication!
You can achieve great results if you follow these simple guidelines. We will show you how visualize the problem and to multiply 24 and 25 in this example.
First, break down both numbers to the power of ten. Now you have 20+4 multiplied by 20+5.
Multiply each number by every other, and memorize each result: 20x20=400, 20x5=100, 4x20=80, 4x5=20.
Then you carefully add up those numbers; 400+100+80+20 gives 600. Was that difficult? Hopefully this will inspire you to math greatness.
43 Seconds is an interactive numbers game for young kids, teens, adults and seniors that requires quick-reaction skills and super-fast mouse-clicking action. You have to click on 5 numbers in the correct sequence (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) in order to make the numbers disappear before you run out of time. This fun online game can quickly turn into a numerical eye-spinner if you are not up to speed, and provides non-stop brain tingling excitement and frustration! Anyone can play it.
The numbers are scattered all over the screen and sometimes hidden beneath each other. You have 43 seconds and 15 levels to get through. You need to keep your eyes open, think fast and click super-fast, to get the job done! If you don't clear the numbers in this time, it's game over! Have a go at this unique and simple brain, hand and eye coordination teaser, and see how fast you are! Good luck.
What's up Doc? Well, it's foot racing time, that's what's up! Bugs & Cecil: Mad Dash is a light-hearted athletic racing game for young kids where you have to guide Bugs Bunny over a set amount of hurdles – and win – each increasingly challenging race against Cecil Turtle. The cheeky rabbit is so confident of victory, he has set himself the tricky task of leaping over Olympic-style hurdles in each race, and you have to time each jump perfectly as well as carefully position Bugs on the track. However, you shouldn't be fooled by Cecil's wizened appearance; he's a crafty runner, and is ready to capitalize on any mistakes by Bugs.
Based on characters from the beloved Looney Tunes cartoon series, this is a straight-forward keyboard tapping skill game suitable for kids of all ages. The simple premise and easy-to-learn controls means this could be perhaps used a fun activity for little children to help exercise and develop motor skills. Good hand-eye coordination, expert timing, and fast reflexes are all tested on the 'mad dash' for the finish line. It's time to lace up those running shoes – on your marks… get set…GO!
Sushi Cat: The Honeymoon is a wacky, arcade game for little kids where you have to drop a determined and bouncy little cat into a pinball-style grid filled with pieces of delicious sushi! The hungry feline pings around the various ledges and obstacles, gobbling up as many pieces of delicious raw fish as possible before happily falling into a bin at the bottom of the grid. To add a little background detail to this eccentric game, Sushi Cat is on a honeymoon cruise with his beloved pink teddy when the ship runs aground. Our hero kitty instinctively knows that he urgently needs to bulk up in order to save the ship from sinking – and what better way to increase his mass than by feasting on his favorite food; sushi! However, he needs your help to carefully drop him into precise areas on the grid in order to maximize his chances of consuming enough fish to complete each level.
This further game in the Sushi Cat game series features cute animations, quirky characters, and simple mouse-clicking controls suitable for younger kids who enjoy fun, colorful online arcade activities. Luck plays a big part in that you cannot affect the movement of the kitty once he enters the grid, but your expert eye, initial positioning, and the timing of your drop can be crucial toward the success or failure of the fish-loving feline. OK, it's time to drop kitty, and enjoy watching him grow to multiple times his original size! Happy cat feeding!
Color The Void Game is a fun online game that requires good reactions and speed. Choose between 'normal', 'hard' or 'insane' difficulty levels and begin playing. Blow up all of your enemies to move on to the next level or blow up several enemies at once to score combos. Pick up white balls to increase the score multiplier. You will encounter new enemies with various different powers as you progress through the levels.
Big Boss is waiting for you on level 25! Note that the red enemies are more dangerous, so be careful not to touch against them, as you may easily lose your lives. Your remaining lives are shown at the bottom of the game screen. Whatever happens, remember that you are cute, colorful and dangerous! So good luck and react quickly!
Pharaoh Phobia is a funny online platform game for kids (that you need Adobe Shockwave Player to play) where you have to guide Courage, the Cowardly Dog, through an ancient Egyptian pyramid in order to rescue his owners who are trapped at the top. The only problem is that Courage gets scared by absolutely everything! He is the most cowardly dog in the world, so you have to make sure you keep him calm as you navigate through the creepy pyramid.
Avoid skeletons, mummies and other scary stuff to keep Courage calm enough to survive and rescue his owners so they can all get out of there! This cute and hilarious cartoon adventure will have you laughing all the way. It's pretty tricky though, as Courage is difficult to control – probably owing to the fact he is almost paralyzed with fear! Test your quick reactions as you maneuver him through each challenging pyramid level. Think you can help this petrified little pet escape? Good luck!
Old-school "join the dots" has been played for decades on paper and boards in classrooms and homes around the world – Now you have the fun opportunity to play online! Flash Dots is a cool mouse-clicking version of this classic notebook / copybook-based connect-the-dots game where you must score points by creating the fourth wall of a box.
Take turns with your tricky computer-controlled opponent to join the dots on a large grid by drawing horizontal and vertical lines. Whichever player draws the fourth line to complete a box is awarded that box, and the player with the higher number of boxes created at the end of the game is the winner!
This challenging, interactive puzzle & analytical thinking skills activity for kids, teens and grownups requires good observation and concentration levels, smart strategy and quick thinking skills when under pressure, and the vision to spot areas of the game grid to exploit. Courage and determination are key attributes of a winner. Always remember that your opponent has to place a line somewhere on the grid – so cornering your rival into making a THIRD line of a box is definitely a good play.
Here's your chance to become a modern-day Mary Poppins by taking care of a whole bunch of boisterous little kids! Kids Play Park is a fun child care management simulation game where you have to take over the running of a busy playground. You play the role of Lucy – a friendly child minder who has to assist kids by helping them enjoy their favorite playground activities such as swings, slides, and see-saws. Make sure to keep each young child happy, and score points for making sure each little youngster has a great day out!
This colorful RPG game combines fast reaction skills with business management as you have to reach a target number of points in each level by enhancing each child's enjoyment. This certainly isn't a walk in the park – you have an extremely responsible job taking care of these cute kids, and they don't like to be kept waiting! If you don't give theses kids what they want fast, there could very well be tears galore! As the game progresses, your important job becomes increasingly tricky as more and more kids arrive to play in this popular playground in the local park. You need quick reactions in later levels, as there is a whole bunch of energetic little guys that all want your attention! Have you got the cool head and management skills it takes to make your play area the most popular in town? It's time to open the gates, and find out!
Stalk The Frog is a fun, simple yet addicting and challenging puzzle game with a quirky little character that will drive you nuts! Look at his indifferent expression - those uncaring eyes - that air of superiority. He's just laughing at you. Ask yourself; can mankind outwit a frog?
Boing boing! He likes to hop around but make sure he doesn't hop off into the water because then you lose the game. The object of this puzzle game is to stop the frog from entering the water - so try and block him (if you can).
Unleash your creative painting skills with this fun online coloring game! Car Painting is an easy-to-play, interactive, mouse-clicking "color fill-in" game for little kids where you have the opportunity to design your own color scheme for a cool sports car! Featuring a palette of over 200 different colors, you can make your vehicle as wacky or as realistic looking as you want! There are even some cute cartoon animal buddies to color in also!
This creative point-and-click game could be used as a good fun activity for young children developing their color coordination skills, or who simply love coloring-in activities on computer. Happy car painting!
Free Animal Coloring Activity for Kids: On the right side you have a color palette to choose from. Select the color with your mouse and then click on the picture. The part of the picture or any element of it you click on will be colored in the color you have selected. Be creative. After you have colored the picture click the PRINT button at the bottom right corner and you can print out the picture.
Also see our online Christmas coloring pages, Tom and Jerry coloring sheet, Painting Activity and 5 in 1 coloring page. Alphabet color - in worksheets - teach your child the alphabet with these fun images.
Online Magic-pen-2 Game is an educational, physics-based drawing game that teaches how to overcome barriers using your logic and knowledge. Draw shapes and use the laws of physics to reach the target. Your goal is to collect the flags with the little red ball to complete a level. The shapes that you draw are affected by gravity, friction and inertia. Use these physical properties to your advantage. The red ball (or red square in some levels), is the object that collects the flags. Therefore draw the objects in such a way that they push the ball in the desired direction. Make clever use of the laws of physics to collect all flags on each level!
300 Miles to Pigsland is an addicting skill and puzzle-based platform game for kids where you have to play the role of a good guardian, and guide a bunch of cute little pigs home to their newly constructed den. They've been separated from their owner for too long - now they are embarking on an epic journey home, and they need your help! The 300 mile journey is fraught with danger – there are wolves, bears and other animals out to get them. There's also difficult terrain to negotiate – they have to run through creepy dark tunnels and leap over water.
This super-fun animal adventure will give you hours of endless entertainment. Guide the piggies all the way home and make them the happiest little guys on the world! You'll need quick reactions and a steady hand as there are so many fast-approaching obstacles to avoid along the way. Your strategic planning abilities will also be tested, as you have to choose which upgrades give your pigs the best chance of success. No one can stop them – not by the hair on their chinny-chin-chins! Ok Piggy Protector – let's go for it!
7 Moves - A great tile puzzle game for young kids to middle school age children that you should find very easy to play (or at least so it seems at first), and involves some basic math (addition and subtraction). Deep down in the Hidden Cave lie treasures of untold riches! Your mission as a treasure hunter is find and collect all treasures in each cave. But you need to make exactly 7 moves (tile steps) in order to reach each treasure chest.
Tony the Turtle (and The Island Adventures) is a "Super Mario-style" online kids' game (that requires Adobe Shockwave Player to play) where you have to collect as many blue hoops as possible in order to reach the next level. It is suitable for small kids and Big Kids who like to have some silly fun! Tony's in trouble and only you can help! Get him to the next level or it's game over! Run and jump, collect the hoops and watch out for the nasty pirates and crafty crabs! This game requires the skill and dexterity of a determined Ninja Turtle. Could that be you?
How accurate are you at firing a plunger at a moving target? Hook's Dart Camp is a fun dart shooting game for both younger kids and Big Kids (who love a good old laugh!) where you have to hit moving targets under pressure (while the targets sway to and fro on a rocking ship, home to by Peter Pan-based villians – including Captain Hook himself!). You play the role of an unfortunate captive, and have to win your freedom by passing a series of dart firing tasks!
This light-hearted, mouse-only activity is not straight-forward however, and clinical accuracy is the order of the day. A high level of concentration, steady mouse control combined with good hand-eye coordination, and great patience are all essential skills of the virtual master marksman, and it is no different here amid the chaos of a raucous pirate ship filled with taunting roughies, and difficult moving targets. Arrrrrr you ready for action? Let's show these silly pirates what you are made of. We certainly don't want to end up having to walk the plank! Enjoy the challenge!
Star Island is a whimsical, colorful and light-hearted, skill-based arcade game for elementary school age children where you have to guide a courageous, wheel-shaped smiley-face character through a series of tricky platform challenges. Set in a bright, cartoonish landscape full of vivid trees and luminous ledges, you play the role of the smiling circular hero, and must spin and jump to collect 5 star clusters in each level (to open the door to the next task). The catch is that the levels are filled with difficult jumping challenges, powerful wind gusts, bad guy squirrels, exploding springs, and more wacky obstacles!
This easy-to-play, interactive platform adventure game exercises your hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills, and requires quick keyboard tapping and good concentration. You also play under pressure against the clock, so let's get spinning into action!
Want to play a fun "Hit the Target" game with an unusual choice of projectile? Sheep Toss is a wacky mouse-clicking, skill-based game for kids of all ages, and is designed to put a smile on your face, and maybe an odd frown when you repeatedly miss a target. Scrappy the Sheepdog is a laid-back but innovative & eccentric character who doesn't fancy running all over a vast 3D farm all day to round up and direct the wandering sheep from one area to another. Instead, Scrappy the Sheepdog fancies himself as a bit of an inventor and pioneer, and has invented a custom-made, sling-shot contraption from a simple elasticated hammock in order to catapult the sheep through the air into highlighted "penned" areas and farm buildings. If this works, Scrappy can launch the sheep into their pen (a fenced grazing area or farmyard barn) without breaking sweat. However, he needs your unique sheep-slinging expertise to make sure the sheep fly through the air with the correct direction and distance!
Now, we don't want to pull the wool over your eyes and give the impression that this game is simply a breeze; Sheep tossing in fact can be a really challenging test of your accuracy and mouse-clicking skills. This highly enjoyable online target-hitting activity (that shares some parallels with golf) requires a very deft hand, good judgement, gentle patience, dogged determination, and a lot of initial trial and error as it takes a while to get your swing (or should we say "sling") just right. You also have to take any wind speed and sheep "bounciness" on landing into consideration as you try to carefully gauge the correct power, direction, and trajectory of each sheep toss. Good luck, and enjoy a good laugh with your friends and family!
A memory skills / picture puzzle game for younger kids: Ice Cream Memory is a fun tile matching game for where you must match-up identical pairs of delicious-looking ice cream (gelato) pictures against the clock. Armed with just your computer mouse, a high concentration level, your masterful memory skills, and great determination, you embark on a colorful pair-hunting challenge; the further you progress, the more pairs you have to match. Happy ice cream matching!

As the country endeavors to become more and more energy independent, new techniques for extracting oil and gas from beneath the landscape are greatly expanding the footprint of energy exploration in the country. These efforts have greatly increased the production of oil and natural gas in the United States, and they also are creating problems when the drilling operations turn up on the doorsteps of national parks.

OpenStack is an Infrastructure as a Service offering. (see my prior post for an explanation of IaaS).
OpenStack is an OpenSource project, founded by RackSpace, NASA and others.
OpenStack can be deployed as a public or private cloud.
The OpenStack projects are: CINDER, GLANCE, KEYSTONE, NOVA, QUANTUM, SWIFT.
OpenStack Compute: (NOVA)
Project NOVA, or OpenStack Compute, provisions and manages on-demand virtual machines and associated resources: CPU, Memory, Disk and Network.
Virtual machines can be started, stopped, suspended, created and deleted, while network options for a virtual machine are static, DHCP, or IPv6.
The virtual machines run on hypervisors such as XEN or KVM, but others are supported too - even VMware ESXi!
Users and administrators use the GUI to request virtual machines, while developers may typically use an API.
Security? Of course there are security groups, similar to AWS, to control access to virtual machines and RBAC to govern user access by role and project.
Object Storage (project SWIFT)
Object Storage is a distributed storage system for static data such as files (graphics, movies) and virtual machine images. Objects and files are written to multiple disk drives, while OpenStack is responsible for ensuring data replication and integrity. Storage scales horizontally by adding new servers. If a server or hard drive fails, OpenStack replicates its content from other active servers to new servers in the cluster. Since OpenStack uses software to ensure data replication and distribution across servers, inexpensive servers can be used rather than expensive storage hardware.
Block storage (project CINDER)
Block storage is essentially volumes used by OpenStack virtual machines. Snapshots back up data stored on block storage volumes. Snapshots can be restored or used to create a new block storage volume.
Network (project QUANTUM)
OpenStack provides networking models to accomodate different applications or users. Standard network models include flat networks or VLANs to separate servers and network traffic. OpenStack Networking manages IP addresses, to allocate static or DHCP addresses. Floating IP addresses allow traffic to be dynamically rerouted to any compute resource, for example to redirect traffic during maintenance or in the case of a failure. OpenStack Networking has an extension framework to add intrusion detection systems (IDS), load balancing, firewalls and virtual private networks (VPN) .
Shared Services
Identity services (project KEYSTONE)
OpenStack Identity provides a central repository of users mapped to the OpenStack services they can access. OpenStack identity is a common authentication system and integrates with existing backend directory services such as LDAP. It supports several forms of authentication including username and password, tokens and AWS-type logins. The identity service also provides a queryable list of services deployed in the OpenStack cloud and users can programmatically determine their level of access.
OpenStack Administrators can:
- Configure centralized policies across users and systems
- Create users and tenants and define permissions for compute, storage and networking resources using role-based access control (RBAC)
- Integrate with an existing directory like LDAP, allowing for a single source of identity authentication across the cloud.
Image services (Project GLANCE)
The OpenStack Image Service provides discovery, registration and delivery services for disk and server images. Saved images can be used as a template to get new virtual servers up and running (especially useful for multiple servers of the same type and configuration). It can also be used to store and catalog an umlimited number of backups.
The image service stores private and public images in a variety of formats:
- qcow2 (Qemu/KVM)
- OVF (Open Virtualization Format)
- VDI (VirtualBox)
- VHD (Hyper-V)
- VMDK (VMWare)

(The views expressed in this blog are entirely mine and do not represent my employer - Jonathan).
Security is one the more prominent of the application service categories, likely due to its high profile impact. After all, if security fails, we all hear about it. The entire Internet. Forever.
So when one conducts a survey on the state of application delivery (which is implemented using application services) you kinda have to include security.
Which of course, we did. Apr. 27, 2015 11:30 AM EDT Reads: 2,029 |
