About this location
The Puglia region
A beautiful land, a place that conceals different souls: this is Puglia, the "heel" of the boot, an enchanting region, suspended between nature, history, tradition, taste and spirituality, to be visited twelve months a year.
Those who love the sea, here will be spoiled for choice, being able to choose between the cliffs of Otranto and Santa Maria di Leuca, a meeting point between the Ionian and the Adriatic Sea, between Gallipoli or the "Gem of the Salento" and Gargano the "Spur of Italy", stretching into the clear waters of the sea that is home to the beautiful Tremiti Islands.
Nature still leading the National Park of the Murgia and the Gargano with the wild Foresta Umbra, the salt marshes and lakes, the deep ravines of Laterza and large sinkholes of Altamura, which, with their landscapes, characterize the interior of the region .
And for those who want to make a journey through history, Puglia offers a wide range of places that tell the ancient origins of this earth: from prehistory to the Magna Grecia, the imperial age to the Renaissance, the Baroque splendor of Lecce and Salento.
Torre Dell'Orso
Marvellous 'terra salentina' (the area of Lecce is also called 'Salento'9!.... cristalline sea, white beaches, rocks with astonishing panorama.
In the center, the villages still conserve smell and flavour of the farmer's tradition, always very open and welcome to the foreigners who decide every year to take a holiday on this beautiful southern part of Italy.
The climate, which is always mild in the Salento is ideal for walks into the historical center of the villages - on the discovery of baroc churches, castles... or also in the countryside at close contact with the nature still untouched, between olive trees, vine and antique farmhouses..
Travelling further South along the 'litoranea salentina' on the Adria sea, we arrive to San Foca, the first seascape village of Melendugno, with long, white and extraordinarily low cliffs.
Not even 3 kilometres further South there is Torre dell'Orso with a beach of very fine sand confined by a pine forest planted in 1930 and S.Andrea, the last seascape village of Melendugno.
Just afterwards, passing the lakes of Alimini the territory of Otranto starts. The city is situated on the extreme point of the peninsula where it is separated only 70 km from the Albanese coasts. For many years the city has been in contact with the Orient.
After Otranto, still on the litoranea along a high coast very next to the sea and crossing a deep forest of pines, we arrive to Santa Cesarea Terme, famous for its thermal installations.
Between S.Cesarea passing Castro Marina, Tricase Porto, Marina Serra, Novaglie we arrive on the Promontorium Iapigium, and finally to S.Maria di Leuca. This part of coast is intensively rocky, with cristalline water and frequent marine caves (the most famous is 'Zinzulusa').
Left behind Leuca a series of very long seascapes will accompany us till Gallipoli. Going along the Ionian coast towards North we find the city Torre Vado with a seemingly endless beach, the seascapes of Salve, Pescoluse and Torre Pali, the antique Auxentum (Ugento) with its seascapes Lido Marini, Torre Mozza and Torre San Giovanni, here the sea is very low and clear, the extremely long beaches have incredibly white sand.
Going back on the road to Gallipoli, still on the litoranea, we find Torre Suda and Mancaversa with a good access to the rocks. Just afterwards, from Torre Pizzo, passing kilometres of sandy beaches, we arrive to Gallipoli.
Originally, the city was on the little island which is separated by a short track of sea from the mainland on which the new part of the city is situated today. Going further North on the litoranea, passing Rivabella and Lido Conchiglie, Santa Maria al Bagno and Santa Caterina; these places have a rocky coast with short tracks of sandy beaches. From here we arrive to Sant'Isidoro and Porto Cesareo. In these two seascapes of "Salento" the sea isn't deeper than 1 metre and you have enormous sandy beaches.
San Foca is the little centre, where all infrastructures are simple to reach. The locality preserve a look and a usebility at measure of man; so going into the seashore isn't necessary to move with car, moreover the little port puts at useful attack for little boat's disposal.
For the seashore, there are to make a list of delights of the sea: white sandy shore( fre and equipped beach), rockys escapes, unexpected changes of views, between the sparkling of waves and the deep green of olive-tree.

My husband and I had a few too many beers last night because we are cleaning out our house for resale. Lots of painting, pitching, and on my part, panting.
Anyway, while drowning my aches and pains in suds, I said, "You know, instead of moving to North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida for a few months, why don't we just try New Zealand? We LOVE it. Why can't we live it?"
My thinking is that our Golden Years is more likely 1.5 years. My kids are not yet married and do not yet have children. We've never been to Australia, and it would be so nice to be in a place to explore the Pacific. We are active. We cycle. I birdwatch. He golfs. In other words: Let's do while we can.
My husband said, "Anything is better than Florida. If you can find a way to rent for 4-6 months and take the dog (a Westie) you are on."
So I did my preliminary research last night, and I realize I am out of my depth. At 3 a.m. (when all beer consumption comes back to haunt), I realized: "I'll just post my query on Fodors...and then pray."
Just so you know...
We have spent three weeks in NZ. We know the South Island West Coast because every drop of rain fell on us whilst cycling down the coast. We visited Christchurch (loved it, too bad we can't live there because of earthquakes), Auckland, Bay of Islands/Pahia, Wanaka (loved that, too), Queenstown.
So again...
4-6 months base somewhere
Need to take dog (husband is WAYYYY to attached)
Ideas, please.
Thank you ahead of time for being brilliant.
Need substitute for Florida. New Zealand apt for 4 to 6 months?

Maybe the best place to start your research would be NZ Immigration to see if you can stay longer than the standard tourist visa:
Australia and New Zealand both have tough quarantine procedures for pets, so the next practical thing would be to see what's entailed in taking a dog
http://www.customs.govt.nz/ -

Susan--Great start. I sort of went blind reading the www.customs.govt.nz page, but your mention of the topic made me focus on the hurdles bringing the dog in. I found another good web page that's not in "governmentese":
Given the costs entailed, it might make sense to board the pup at his local pet "spa" instead.
Thanks to your other link, I see that we would not need a visa if we are there for three months. And I bet you we could get away with leaving the country and coming back in. But for purposes of renting, I'm thinking that a three-month rental is max then unless I want to bury myself in paper work.
Now I'm wondering if we should not rent for a month in three different areas of NZ. -
Report Abuse
Stormbird--You are right. But now I have proof to show the husband that the pricing for pup's plush boarding is better than trying to bring him, too.
And I'm not being harsh to the pup--the dog LOVES the kennel. He views it as a longterm doggy cocktail party. -

My daughter and I are currently traveling around New Zealand and we really love the beauty of Kaikoura on the South Island and Taupo on the North Island!

The United States Dance Championships are conducted under the rules and regulations governing competitions and championships recognized by the National Dance Council of America, Inc (NDCA).
1. In the "All American" One Dance Competitions, all gentlemen students will be judged separately from the lady students.
2. The U.S. National Pro/Am American Style Championship Divisions are open to all Pro/Am Canadian couples who are trained in, and dancing, an American Style Syllabus recognized by the NDCA.
3. All competitors are expected to conform to the following rules regarding age classification. Entry into the proper division is governed by the age of the amateur competitor on the date of the championships each year:
4. The "All-American" Competitions are Closed Syllabus events, except for those noted as "Open Syllabus". Participants must only use steps from approved syllabi of member organizations of the NDCA as well as the official NDCA Syllabus. Click Here To View The Amended Bronze Level American Style Categories. An Invigilator with knowledge of these syllabi will be engaged to make sure this rule is enforced. If an infraction occurs during preliminary rounds the couple will be given a warning. If the infraction occurs in subsequent rounds or in the final, the couple will be disqualified.
5. Age Classifications in the "All-American" Competitions are determined by the age of the amateur dancer as follows:
6. Students entering the "All-American" one dance competitions may enter at any level of dance and only TWO higher in any one style of dance (American/International). (Example: A Newcomer American style student may also dance in American style Closed Bronze 1 and Closed Bronze 2 but not in Closed Silver 1 or above). The three levels MUST be in consecutive order, you CANNOT skip a level. Students may enter in completely different dance levels in the American between Smooth and Rhythm and in the International between Standard and Latin. A Pro/Am student may dance the Open Bronze, Open Silver and Open Gold levels (all 3 levels) if the student is in fact a true Bronze level dancer. The students level will be determined by the single dances entered (A Bronze level student is one who dances the majority of their single dances in the Bronze Level). A student may only dance up in level, never down.
7. In the "All American" Pro/Am Competitions the Newcomers division is for beginning students with 50 hours or less of private instruction. Additionally, Newcomers are restricted to steps 1-5 of the Bronze syllabus.
8. In the Pro/Am Pre-Teen Championship division the amateur partner may not be over 12 years of age. In the Pro/Am Junior Championship division the amateur partner may not be over 17 years of age. Pro/Am Pre-Teen or Junior competitors who have previously competed as adults are not eligible to enter the Pro/Am Pre-Teen or Junior Championship divisions of this event.
9. The amateur dancer in a Pro/Am partnership who has previously won a first place medallion in four (4) or more dances in the same style in the "All-American" Single Dance Competitions, becomes ineligible to re-enter the "All-American" Competitions in that level in future yesrs, and must advance to the next higher level in any subsequent year. Couples entering the Open Level (Open Syllabus) are exempt.
10. The amateur dancer in a Pro/Am partnership may enter both the "All-American" Dance Competition and the United States Dance Championships provided the eligibility requirements for the "All-American" Dance Competition are met as outlined in rule 9 above.

Anna Speer
Hi! I was out at Evergreens Cem in Brooklyn, NY the other day and inquired about your photo request for Anna Mary Speer. They look up locations according to death/burial date and for the one you've listed (3/31/1867), they didn't find an entry for her. The office staff there is very nice and even looked in 1866 & 1868, just in case there had been a typo, but unfortunately still no Anna Speer. Just thought I'd let you know. Sorry about that. If you come up w/ any additional info, let me know (or post in the request) and I'll be glad to give it another shot next time I'm there!

This book contains a systematic presentation of quantum functional analysis, a mathematical subject also known as operator space theory. Created in the 1980s, it nowadays is one of the most prominent areas of functional analysis, both as a field of active research and as a source of numerous important applications.
The approach taken in this book differs significantly from the standard approach used in studying operator space theory. Instead of viewing "quantized coefficients" as matrices in a fixed basis, in this book they are interpreted as finite rank operators in a fixed Hilbert space. This allows the author to replace matrix computations with algebraic techniques of module theory and tensor products, thus achieving a more invariant approach to the subject.
The book can be used by graduate students and research mathematicians interested in functional analysis and related areas of mathematics and mathematical physics. Prerequisites include standard courses in abstract algebra and functional analysis.
Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in functional analysis.
"This book is highly recommended to mathematicians who wish to become acquainted with the research field of operator spaces, operator modules and operator algebras."

I wish to officially reassure everyone that your government as a whole,
and the Parliament in particular, is still in tact despite what this
proclamation states and implies.
It is my educated opinion that within a Constitutional Monarchy such as
ours, the Crown or its King cannot unilaterally dismiss Parliament or
the government as a whole. I have called for an emergency session of
Parliament to address this proclamation and its possible implications in
order to formulate an official response. Once our formal response has
been delivered to HIM Dale, it will be posted in this forum.
Your patience and support during these difficult times is greatly

cold weather paddling
Posted by: ppine on Oct-24-12 1:06 PM (EST)
Good question. Agree with most others. Dress for immersion, bring lots of hearty food, be less ambitious in choosing rapids, and pay more attention to a cozy camp. I like a fire in front of a lean-to like the traditional old-style canoeists. It is cheery compared to 14 hours inside a nylon tent.
I love the lack of crowds. We are headed to the desert in Feb.

Busch gets a landslide victory in Texas
FORT WORTH, Texas -- After all the laps Kyle Busch has led in the NASCAR Nationwide Series this season, he finally led the only one that ever really matters.
Busch won at Texas Motor Speedway in dominating fashion Saturday, leading 126 of the 200 laps and finishing more than a second ahead of Jeff Burton. With an average speed of 151.708 mph, it was fastest Nationwide race at the 11/2 -mile high-banked track.
"I never won here, and I proved that, I don't know where Victory Lane is," Busch said. "I got lost getting here."
The caution flag came out with 10 laps left after Kyle Krisiloff crashed on the backstretch. Instead of pitting for new tires, Busch kept his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota on the track.
On the restart with seven laps to go, Busch stayed out front and stretched his gap ahead of Burton's Chevrolet. Clint Bowyer, the series points leader, had two fresh tires and gained two spots in the closing laps to finish third in another Chevrolet.
"He was just rolling," Burton said of Busch. "The best car won today."
Burton was heard on the radio during the closing laps expressing regret about not pitting for new tires. But after he admitted afterward that it wouldn't have mattered.
Busch started 31st and worked through the field to lead four times, including the final 43 laps after an earlier stretch of 60 straight laps interrupted only by the last series of green-flag stops.
"When we finally ended up taking the lead, I thought in my head, this is too good to be true," Busch said.
Other races
IndyCar Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg at St. Petersburg, Fla. -- Former IRL champion Tony Kanaan won the pole in IndyCar's new grueling three-session qualifying format, former Champ Car driver Will Power took the outside spot on the front row and Justin Wilson was third, sharing the second row with Helio Castroneves.
"I guess we better get used to this," said longtime IRL IndyCar Series star Castroneves, the two-time defending winner of the St. Pete street race. "These guys are very good road racers. They're not up in front because they're lucky."

Mommy Blogger April B.- I Missed Something Kinda Big This Week
I missed something kinda big this week. It was one of those forehead slapping "doh!" moments for sure.
I missed something kinda big this week. It was one of those forehead slapping "doh!" moments for sure.
Sometimes in the world of advertising companies can get it right and I give a round of applause to Crest on this one, because this video is hilarious. The premise a group of kids in their Halloween costumes are given candy flavored like broccoli, beets, tofu and are told this is new Halloween candy. Get ready to laugh.
Patients and care givers at the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock perform to Katy Perry's 'Roar'. This is a moving powerful video. I guess I should warn you that you should probably grab the Kleenex.
If you have ever had a child who has struggled with a subject you know how frustrating it can be when they cannot pass. Then one day it clicks and they pass with flying colors. That is exactly what happens to this kid, and the reaction his father has when he sees his son has passed it priceless.
Bullies have been around since the beginning of time. However, as the years progress so do the bullies, but it seems more and more people are taking a stand against bully. One aunt in Oregon wasn't OK with the fact that her nephew was being bullied so she turned to facebook for help.
My advice to new parents: decide NOW how you will teach your child about biology and the birds and the bees and allllll that. Don't think, "Oh, I've got a good ten years or so before I that topic comes up
It is Halloween season which means kid's are going to want a cool costume to wear to go trick or treating. However, when is a gruesome costume age appropriate. My son is 6 and some of the costumes available for him are not appropriate.
Well, we are now officially three weeks into a new school year and I've already had to have a conference with my kindergartener's teacher.
Raising boys while being a female is difficult. I just don't understand the way their brains work. I struggle to get in there and make sense of what they are thinking or how they are processing their thoughts. My oldest son, who is my biological and the one I have raised since birth has been the most confusing. For years I have begged him to brush his teeth, take daily showers, wear clean clothes, you know, basic hygiene.
This story is an amazing story in two ways. One is shows you how amazing animals can be, and two it shows you, that sometimes even the people you believe you can trust you cannot.
If I never heard the word "twerk" again I would be happy, but hey it's in the dictionary now so I guess it's here to stay. I had a friend of mine send me a link to a youtube video yesterday. Her exact words were, "you have to watch this, OMG, my daughter just told me that this is going around." Let me just say I watched the video and my jaw dropped. See it for yourself.

Hello again, new question is how to access APN's on the sprint gs4? I go to more networks, mobile networks, not there. I got to more networks, roaming and not there either.
I don't think Sprint gives you access to the APN's. From what I gather you have to call them and request that your phone be unlocked first.

One of the main concerns, when projecting the NFL draft, is the uncertainty of where a player is going to land. It is an educated guess, and everyone has one.
One projection that everyone seems to be on the same page with is of the destiny of Texas A&M offensive tackle, Luke Joeckel.
According to NFL.com "Luke is a technician with an athletic build, Joeckel excels as a pass protector for the Aggies and displays enough of a temper in the run game to be one of the top picks in this draft class, and a long-time NFL starter at left tackle, especially as he continues to add bulk in an NFL strength and conditioning program." Looking at the NFL Mock Draft Database, 87% have Luke Joeckel going to the Kansas City Chiefs overall.... Read more

Food asphyxiation in hospitalized patients. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 577229 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
During a five-year period, food asphyxiation caused 1.3% of all deaths of patients who came to autopsy at a hospital for chronic diseases. Patients died suddendly, during or shortly after meals. Acute myocardial infarction was mistakenly diagnosed in eight of the 14 patients until autopsy was performed. Sedation, old age, and poor dentition predisposed to aspiration. Food asphyxiation is a common problem whenever and wherever people eat. To minimize its occurrence in hospitalized patients, sedatives should be prescribed judiciously, and diets ordered appropriately. Physicians should learn the simple methods of extracting inhaled food. |

24/7 Customer Support
For GE Suspension_spring (Part Number: AP3884118)
Matt for Model Number wcvh6800j1ww
Answer Hello Matt. Check and see if the damper shocks WH01X10425 are bad. If they are good, then check the bearings in the unit.
Was this helpful?
1 Answer
James for Model Number LG WCVH6600HWW
Answer Hello James. You need to check for a loose motor or bad bearings. Either will cause an out of balance issue with the unit.
Clark W for Model Number WCVH6260HWW
Answer Clark, The upper tub suspension springs (2) are replaced from or through the top of the washer :" To remove the top panel: Remove the 3 Phillips-head screws that attach the top cover, then pull the cover rearward. Note: It may be helpful to place a putty knife along the top seam between the cover and control panel, then tap lightly rearward. Remove the 3 (7-mm) hex-head screws that attach the rear of the top panel to the cabinet." You'll find the springs attached to the cabinet top flange seated in a "plastic" insert, and attached to the outer tub assembly. Thanks and Good Luck
Ray for Model Number GE WCVH6600H front loader
Answer Hello Ray. The best way to raise the tub high enough to hook the springs, is to stack a few 4x4's or 2x4's under the tub and let them support the weight of the tub. You will need someone to help you do this, but as you lift the tub, they can place the board under it and support the weight. This way you do not need to remove the counter weights off the unit. If one spring broke, it would be best to replace both springs WH05X10009 at the same time. Hope this helps.

Sighting Details
I was sitting in my car around 7:54 12/17/13 when my friend said look at all those aliens. then i looked and seen a whole swarm of what looked like 45- 60 stars at first then they stopped and stated flickering and clustered together then spread out and paused for about 10 minutes. After the helicopters came out clouds started forming in front of these space crafts then they shot of into space. I knew these were craft from else where stars and meteors dont move like these did. |

I've had the same tube of this stuff for about a year and there's a good reason behind that: it does absolutely nothing for me. It makes my skin feel somewhat tight for the first five minutes after application, but it does not mattify or control oil whatsoever. I've had MUCH better luck with Bioderma's Pore Refiner in all aspects. Glad that some people like this, but it was a miss for me. If you do end up trying this: you must warm it up between your fingers before patting it on or else it will be patchy and very hard to spread.

When I first bought this product I loved this primer! After a while I found the primer got very thick and was not only hard to apply on the skin but also hard to squeeze out of the tube. Then the primer began to crack when it dried on my face, it also did not make my makeup last any longer than usual. I would not suggest this product to anyone.

This is far too drying for my combo skin, I am very shiny but also sometimes flaky in my t zone, and this exacerbated flakes, big time.

It's a good product if you know how to use it properly. I warm up a very small size of the product on my finger tips and just dab it on the most problematic parts of my face eg. T-zone and cheeks. However, I do use it AFTER I apply makeup to really help it set. It definitely does keep my oily-ness at bay during the day (around 4-5 hours without having to blot). I've noticed that if I don't use it after my makeup it becomes crazy gross so this product has really helped out.
TL;DR Super expensive but lasts for a long time because you don't need to use a lot. Keeps oily-ness at bay for more than 4 hours but better to dab it onto problem/most oily areas than the whole face.

This has become HG status for me, a pretty low-maintenance girl with very. Oily. Skin. I'm not the kind of girl who wears foundation every day, and I take the minimalist route of wearing blush and draw in my eyebrows about 5-6 days a week.
But now, every morning after my daily moisturizer, I put on a thin layer of the Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector. I've been using this primer for about a month now. I use it under foundation, under my CC cream, or just by itself. Usually my face turns into an oilfield within 2 hours, but with the PPP I can go about 5 hours before I see some shine. I still have to blot, but only once a day instead of 2-3 times now. And unlike when I wear foundation, I don't need to make two passes and do my "thorough makeup removal" with a Ponds wipe and a Clarisonic face scrubbing; just the Ponds wipe seems to work and doesn't make me break out! (The other primer I tried, the Monistat Chafing Relief gel, made me break out unless I deep-cleaned my pores every time after I wear it.) They're both made of silicones, so the Becca primer must be made of some silicones that go gentler on my skin. Whatever it is, I'm digging it. This is the only primer I've ever used that I would repurchase.

I bought this product in search of a primer that would blur my pores (which are fairly medium sized) and keep my skin matte in my t-zone. Hence the name, I expected my pores to appear smooth and perfect, and my skin to stay matte. Unfortunately, both of these things did not happen. This product did a great job of making my pores disappear right when I applied it, but while the day continued it did not stay this way (even with a setting spray over top). It also did not keep my skin matte looking, I powdered in my t-zone area and it still became oily after a 6 hour period of time. Applying the product was a little difficult, as it is very rock hard and it comes out like an hard-like gel. I do not think I would buy this product again because it did not fit my needs, yet I am sure it could fit someone else's!

Worst primer I have EVER used, and I've used a lot. Even following the multitude of instructions this stuff feels like spreading almost dry Elmer's glue on your face. Does not mattify anything. My cheap NYX primer minimizes pores better. Not to mention the greasy, gluey crap has clogged up my pores so badly that my 40 year-old face is broken out like a teenager's.

I am an oily, acne prone so I had high hopes for this product after all the raves it received. I tried various methods,it was hard to learn to use because of its very thick consistency. I tried it under makeup, over makeup alone on bare face, mixing it with other primers, lotions, bb and cc creams. It needs to be applied correctly otherwise it will make your foundation blotchy. After all my experiments all had the same results. It does keep you matte, but to me not worth all the work to apply. The time it keep my face matte is about 3-4 hours and then still need to blot. Once the oil appeared it seems to be more than the norm. returned for refund. My benefit porefessional seems to work better for me.

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! This primer instantly smooths my pores & lines. It controls my oily complexion and makes my make up last all day long. BEST PRIMER EVER! Pros: It's amazing... nothing else to say Cons: Pricey (But worth every penny!) Dries super fast... gotta be quick when applying

I had high hopes for this primer but sadly feel quite disappointed. I stay matte for a couple of hours after applying this primer in the winter but was hoping it would last much longer. It goes on thick and feels like a paste on. It takes a lot of work to blend in but does look natural once make up is on. All in all an ok purchase but not an amazing one. Would not buy again.

Earlier this week, ActiveState announced the launch of the Stackato Partner Program. This program connects Stackato's private PaaS technology with leading infrastructure technologies and service providers.
Recently, we've had a number of prospects and customers ask us about adding their own services to Stackato.
I recently came across a post on ZDNet Cloud Watch by Jack Clark highlighting the new Python 3 support in Heroku.
One of the deep-rooted myths behind the use of open source technologies to build a Platform as a Service (PaaS) is that it is a more cost-effective choice compared to purchasing commercial software. Contrary to popular belief, free software is not a free ride, and there are costs to consider. Now is the time to debunk the myth and help managers make the right decision for their business.
This month, we celebrate twelve Stackato ActiveState developers who share thoughts about the product, little known facts about them, and what they want for Christmas.
Oh holiday joy! While most of you were tucked away with visions of sugarplums in your head, others were scrambling to restore sites, services and back-ends that were left hanging on AWS due to an outage. Some of you may have read my blog post on developing & deploying a geolocation node.js mobile app using FeedHenry and Stackato, which I chose to deploy on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Check out ActiveState CEO, Bart Copeland, in this TV interview with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan at Cloud Expo Santa Clara 2012.
"It's all about Stackato, our enterprise private PaaS solution. It's all about making it really easy for enterprises to deploy and manage their own Platform as a Service."
Click here to see the whole interview!
Hot on the heels of Stackato 2.6.6, we're excited to make Stackato 2.6.7 available today. As usual, the forum announcement and release notes have the change list.
Twitter recently and publicly announced that by swapping out Ruby for Java and JVM-based Scala, they were able to survive the US election.

Google Glass can now display captions for hard-of-hearing users
Georgia Institute of Technology researchers have created a speech-to-text Android app for Google Glass that displays captions for hard-of-hearing persons when someone is talking to them in person.
"This system allows wearers like me to focus on the speaker's lips and facial gestures, "said School of Interactive Computing Professor Jim Foley.
"If hard-of-hearing people understand the speech, the conversation can continue immediately without waiting for the caption. However, if I miss a word, I can glance at the transcription, get the word or two I need and get back into the conversation."
Captioning on Glass display captions for the hard-of-hearing (credit: Georgia Tech)
The "Captioning on Glass" app is now available to install from MyGlass. More information here.
Foley and the students are working with the Association of Late Deafened Adults in Atlanta to improve the program. An iPhone app is planned.

The effects of augmented visual feedback during balance training in Parkinson's disease - trial protocol
The effects of augmented visual feedback during balance training in Parkinson's disease: study design of a randomized clinical trial.
BMC Neurol. 2013;13:137
Authors: van den Heuvel MR, van Wegen EE, de Goede CJ, Burgers-Bots IA, Beek PJ, Daffertshofer A, Kwakkel G
Abstract. BACKGROUND: Patients with Parkinson's disease often suffer from reduced mobility due to impaired postural control. Balance exercises form an integral part of rehabilitative therapy but the effectiveness of existing interventions is limited. Recent technological advances allow for providing enhanced visual feedback in the context of computer games, which provide an attractive alternative to conventional therapy. The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to investigate whether a training program capitalizing on virtual-reality-based visual feedback is more effective than an equally-dosed conventional training in improving standing balance performance in patients with Parkinson's disease.
METHODS/DESIGN: Patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease will participate in a five-week balance training program comprising ten treatment sessions of 60 minutes each. Participants will be randomly allocated to (1) an experimental group that will receive balance training using augmented visual feedback, or (2) a control group that will receive balance training in accordance with current physical therapy guidelines for Parkinson's disease patients. Training sessions consist of task-specific exercises that are organized as a series of workstations. Assessments will take place before training, at six weeks, and at twelve weeks follow-up. The functional reach test will serve as the primary outcome measure supplemented by comprehensive assessments of functional balance, posturography, and electroencephalography. DISCUSSION: We hypothesize that balance training based on visual feedback will show greater improvements on standing balance performance than conventional balance training. In addition, we expect that learning new control strategies will be visible in the co-registered posturographic recordings but also through changes in functional connectivity.

OutRun: Augmented Reality Driving Video Game
Garnet Hertz's video game concept car combines a car-shaped arcade game cabinet with a real world electric vehicle to produce a video game system that actually drives. OutRun offers a unique mixed reality simulation as one physically drives through an 8-bit video game. The windshield of the system features custom software that transforms the real world into an 8-bit video game, enabling the user to have limitless gameplay opportunities while driving. Hertz has designed OutRun to de-simulate the driving component of a video game: where game simulations strive to be increasingly realistic (usually focused on graphics), this system pursues "real" driving through the game. Additionally, playing off the game-like experience one can have driving with an automobile navigation system, OutRun explores the consequences of using only a computer model of the world as a navigation tool for driving.

OpenGlass Project Makes Google Glass Useful for the Visually Impaired
Re-blogged from Medgadget
Google Glass may have been developed to transform the way people see the world around them, but thanks to Dapper Vision's OpenGlass Project, one doesn't even need to be able to see to experience the Silicon Valley tech giant's new spectacles.
Harnessing the power of Google Glass' built-in camera, the cloud, and the "hive-mind", visually impaired users will be able to know what's in front of them. The system consists of two components: Question-Answer sends pictures taken by the user and uploads them to Amazon's Mechanical Turk and Twitter for the public to help identify, and Memento takes video from Glass and uses image matching to identify objects from a database created with the help of seeing users. Information about what the Glass wearer "sees" is read aloud to the user via bone conduction speakers.
Here's a video that explains more about how it all works:

Hive-mind solves tasks using Google Glass ant game
Re-blogged from New Scientist
Glass could soon be used for more than just snapping pics of your lunchtime sandwich. A new game will connect Glass wearers to a virtual ant colony vying for prizes by solving real-world problems that vex traditional crowdsourcing efforts.
Crowdsourcing is most famous for collaborative projects like Wikipedia and "games with a purpose" like FoldIt, which turns the calculations involved in protein folding into an online game. All require users to log in to a specific website on their PC.
Now Daniel Estrada of the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign and Jonathan Lawhead of Columbia University in New York are seeking to bring crowdsourcing to Google's wearable computer, Glass.
The pair have designed a game called Swarm! that puts a Glass wearer in the role of an ant in a colony. Similar to the pheromone trails laid down by ants, players leave virtual trails on a map as they move about. These behave like real ant trails, fading away with time unless reinforced by other people travelling the same route. Such augmented reality games already exist – Google's Ingress, for one – but in Swarm! the tasks have real-world applications.
Swarm! players seek out virtual resources to benefit their colony, such as food, and must avoid crossing the trails of other colony members. They can also monopolise a resource pool by taking photos of its real-world location.
To gain further resources for their colony, players can carry out real-world tasks. For example, if the developers wanted to create a map of the locations of every power outlet in an airport, they could reward players with virtual food for every photo of a socket they took. The photos and location data recorded by Glass could then be used to generate a map that anyone could use. Such problems can only be solved by people out in the physical world, yet the economic incentives aren't strong enough for, say, the airport owner to provide such a map.
Estrada and Lawhead hope that by turning tasks such as these into games, Swarm! will capture the group intelligence ant colonies exhibit when they find the most efficient paths between food sources and the home nest.

Hyper(reality) - The Last Tuesday Society
Project's description: Embodying the concept theorized by hyperrealism theories, the helmet provides a digital experience, immersing the user in an alternative version of reality seen through the helmet. Instead of having a static point of view, the user becomes able to navigate through the 3D environment enabling new behaviours specific to the hyperreal world while still having to physically interact with the real environment. Thus it creates an odd interface between these two states.
Hyper(reality) - The Last Tuesday Society from Maxence
The suit is composed of an helmet with high definition video glasses, an arduino glove with force sensors controlling the 3D view and a harness for the kinect. Each user experience is recorded and analysed, portraiting user behaviours during the experience. Immersed into this dream-like virtual space, the user gradually discovers the collection of curiosities. Behaviours are being modified, the notion of scale is being distorted, all this pushing the boundaries of the physical space. Venitian masks, stuffed animals and old scultpures start floating in the air around the user creating a new sensorial experience.

Augmented City
Keiichi Matsuda did it again. After the success of Domestic Robocop, the architecture graduate and filmaker got the nomination for the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Silver Medal award, for his new video "Augmented City". As in his previous work, in this new video Matsuda describes a future world overlaid with digital information, whose built environment can be manipulated by the individual. In this way, the objective physical world is transformed in a subjective virtual space.
In Matsuda's own words:
Augmented City explores the social and spatial implications of an AR-supported future. 'Users' of the city can browse through channels of the augmented city, creating aggregated customised environments. Identity is constructed and broadcast, while local records and coupons litter the streets. The augmented city is an architectural construct modulated by the user, a liquid city of stratified layers that perceptually exists in the space between the self and the built environment. This subjective space allows us to re-evaluate current trends, and examine our future occupation of the augmented city.

Augmented (hyper)Reality
Via Leandeer
This great video by Keiichi Matsuda shows how augmented reality "may recontextualise the functions of consumerism and architecture, and change in the way in which we operate within it". The scenario is also interesting because it suggests how AR may be (ab)used by commercial companies. On the other hand, it is difficult to imagine how AR could go mainstream without them... of course any suggestion is welcome.
