text: Greetings, I want to know if Arabic "میکائیل", equivalent of "Michael", is a genuine word or it is actually a Hebrew loan which is Arabized (I am not sure perhaps through a "kh" > "k" shift)? Allegedly Michael in Hebrew means "Who is like God" (it is controversially discussed over here: http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=2075060&highlight=michael+etymology), but it does not mention whether "Mikail" is just a cognate of "Michael" or a Hebrew loan. Thanks in advance.

TIRUCHI: In a significant development, `hazardous industries' have extended an olive branch to officialdom towards realising the objective of eradicating child labour in Tiruchi district.
The authorities are hopeful of declaring the district `child-labour free in hazardous industries' before the end of this year, the deadline fixed by the Centre, and `totally child-labour free' by 2007, when non-hazardous industries will also be brought under the purview of the initiative.
Since the start of this year, hazardous industries, particularly tanneries, cigar rolling units and brick kilns, have exercised restraint in employing children. This is in deference to a plea from a high-level committee headed by Collector M. Nanda Kishore to enrol child labourers in schools under Sarva Siksha Abhiyan scheme being implemented by the Education Department.
Voluntary compliance by hazardous units followed sustained intervention by the Anti-Child Labour Committee, surprise raids, implementation of SSA, and commencement of special schools under National Child Labour Project.
High-level committees were constituted in all districts after the State Government issued a diktat to Collectors to identify child labourers employed in hazardous units and enrol them in schools by 2005. The committee comprises officials representing the departments of Police, Labour Welfare, Factories, Education, and Rural Development.
The Deputy Chief Inspector of Factories, who is the Member-Secretary of the Committee, has already recommended to the Collector, the ex-officio Chairman, to declare the district as `child-labour free' in hazardous industries.
To crosscheck data compiled by the committee, a `monitoring panel' has been constituted. This committee, also headed by the Collector, comprises the Superintendent of Police, Chief Educational Officer, and Project Officer of District Rural Development Agency as members.
The monitoring committee is entrusted with the task of making spot visits to registered and unregistered hazardous units.
According to the SSA survey last year, Mannachanallur accounted for the largest number of 145 child labourers in hazardous units, followed by Lalgudi (57), Manikandam (43), Uppliyapuram (23), Thatheingarpet (13), and Thuraiyur (9). Most of these child labourers have since been enrolled.
Intensive raids in hazardous units since May this year led to redemption of 47 more child labourers.

It was the night before New Year's, and all through the fucking projects
Not a handgun was silent, not even a Tec
from GZA (Ft. Inspectah Deck) – Cold World Lyrics on Genius
A ghetto twist on the famous poem The Night Before Christmas which begins:
Twas the night before Christmas when all thro' the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
A Tec-9 is a semi-automatic handgun.
ACCEPTED COMMENT: Tec-9's were very popular among inner city gangs due how cheap they were to get a hold of, and how easily they can be modified into full-auto.

In LightWave 10 Essential Training, author Dan Ablan provides thorough, step-by-step instructions on building 3D models, scenes, and animations in LightWave 10. Beginning with a tour of the interface and LightWave's two main programs, Modeler and Layout, the course covers key concepts such as building models from basic polygonal shapes, assigning textures, and employing lights and 3D cameras to build real world scenes. Also included are tutorials explaining particle animation, dynamics, and bones. Exercise files accompany the course.
If you are not fortunate enough to have an EPS or an Illustrator file to build a text object, it's not a problem. LightWave Modeler has quite a few text controls that you can use to build your own text, fonts, logos, et cetera. So from the Create tab, down under the Text category, and you can see there are five different options to choose from. The make_text button allows you to import a text file. So if you have a long string of text, you wanted to create your own Star Wars-like introduction, you can load that up and it will automatically generate that into fonts for you. But more often or not, you are going to create something with the Logo or the Text tools.
The Logo Maker, just type in anything you want such as 'My Logo'. It's good. Extrusion depth could be 500 mm, and then you can choose a font. Come down and choose Arial. If you click OK, it automatically just makes a quick easy logo for you. Kind of basic, but it works. Now sometimes I like a little more control over things, so I am going to Ctrl+X to get rid of that. The Multi Text is big, massive tool that you can use, and I just put some text in here I took off from Wikipedia, and what this is allows you to come down, again, we'll just choose Arial, something a font everybody has.
Alignment could be Left, Center, or Right. We choose Left. You can load a text file, you have Sharp Corners or Buffered. You can center it out, scale it and so on. Kerning, for in between the letters, and I'll show you that in a little bit. And of course you can have multiple lines of text in here. As soon as you click OK, it generates that. Let me expand this view right here to a long string of text, whatever I put in there. And for the most part this one works pretty well. It does a nice clean job. So, you can use the fonts--and I've done this for quite a few projects-- I used fonts as elements.
They don't always have to be as bold as "here is a logo right in front of you that's the title of a company." It can simply be an element. In fact, a company logo, the majority of the design is a series of different script fonts all blended together. You don't really know what they are until you took a closer look at it. So let's do Ctrl+X to cut that. The next option is Text Layers, and similar to the Multi Text this one will create layers for you. So again, I'll do My Logo, go to Font, and I'll choose Arial again. Easy enough.
Then what you can do, you have Font Spacing, Font Scaling, Extrusion. This one, however, will bevel for you, which saves you a little bit of time, which is very nice. You can jump over to Surfaces and this will create three different surfaces for you, from the size of the fonts to the bevel and to the face, and there's a reason for that. You'll often want to put the reflections on the bevel a lot shinier than perhaps on the side. The side of logo might actually have a smoother surface than the face, where it's going to be flat, and of course, you might even just want different colors.
Then you can have multiple layers. You can set it up per Word, Single, or per Letter. Meaning these layers up in the top right corner, this Text layers command will separate through those layers if you want it to. Finally, you can say where to create this object, and it will build the scene for you that you can load directly in Layout, so it's quite nice. So I am just going to click OK, and I'll press the A key to fit, and this is the only issue that you might have once in a while, depending on your font. Now the font is fine, and this is something that you might see from time to time.
This has to do with the video card display, just OpenGL, and I'll show you how to fix this in a minute. You can see that the logo is built. It actually has a nice bevel to it, and if we jump to the Surface Editor, which we haven't covered yet, you will see that there are actually three surfaces that we can put on there. So, that works out quite well. You'll also notice that we have all the letters separated into different layers, and the reason you would want that is to perhaps you want all these letters to tumble in when you get to Layout. So if you are animating this, you need each one of those letters to be on a separate layer in order to animate.
If you're animating the logo as a whole, you can still parent it to a null object just a information channel, and have that animated as well. Let me show you what happens here to fix this M. Now normally when this happens, and if you look your font in the wireframe is fine, but your OpenGL view, the shade view, doesn't look right. So from the Modify tab there is the Drag tool right there, and all you need to do is just take one of these points and if you just adjust it, often you can fix this font.
See how that changes? And it's these points right here that are causing the issue. So similar to an EPS file where the bevel overshot and crossed over, this is one where these corners just extended too long, and this essentially turn the face inside out. So don't get too alarmed when you see things like that. Just really pay attention to the wireframe and the shape of your model. And in that case, it works out okay. So Ctrl+X to cut that. We don't need that one. Let's do one more. So under the Create tab, choose just the Text tool, and you'll get a little cursor that comes up.
I am going to click right here in the Back view, and the reason I like the Back View is because when I get to Layout this will be facing my camera. My camera will see this font directly in the middle. And I'll type in My Logo. Easy enough, we've been doing that. I am going to press the Numeric button down at the bottom, and here are the Text Tool Numeric controls. I don't like this font at all. And we've been using Arial, but let's go ahead and do something a little bit nicer, like Book Antiqua, and that's a font that's pretty common on PCs and Macs. You can see that before I've even finished this the fonts automatically change right in front of me.
I've got scaling and kerning in here that I can do, and really all I want to do in here is just press 0 for the to Center X, 0 for the Y, and 0 for the Z, and that brings that cursor right to the center zero. Alignment could be Left, Centered, or Right, and that alignment is left, center, or right of the text cursor. I usually do it left. It gives me a little more control. Then the last thing I could do is when I zoom in I can kern, and there is a little tiny line right there on this tool, and if I click and hold my mouse on there, I can actually scale this in or out.
Sometimes you'll need to do this more often than not. Certain fonts just don't line up properly, so you might want to do it manually. For instance the o is little close to the L. The y might not be close enough. That's because each font has its own unique bounding box that the computer understands. It's just kind of an invisible boundary, and that's what it sees when it brings these together. So for instance an A, let me just do this Shift+Backspace, we'll remove that. If you type AV, that's what happens: you get that very big space in between. You should be aware that you should never let a font look like that.
The reason it does that is because if you envision a box around this font and a box around this font, look where they line up, right in between A and the V. So you always want to kern those to get those little bit closer together, okay. So Shift+Backspace will get rid of those. Type in My Logo again, and then let's kern them out. And then if you grab the top handle, you can actually size the full logo itself. Turn off the Text tool, and now you can use just your regular modeling tools.
You can go to Multiply, choose Extrude, click and drag from the top, turn off Extrude, press the A key to fit, and we'll zoom in, and just like that, we've got a very nice font logo that we can work with. Remember, these are all individual polygons. So you can select one, then if you press the bracket key two over from the P key, that will select everything connected to what you just selected, and then you can move that around. Press the T key for instance, and you can move this up like this, and then you can press the Question Mark/Slash key to deselect. Click on this one, press the Right Bracket two over from the P key, T key for Move, and that's just the Modify > Move, and you can move this down.
So, without much effort-- we'll click to turn off the move-- you can create a very unique logo just with some simple fonts. So the text tool in LightWave Modeler quite powerful, quite a few that you can use, whether you want it fully automated or just a manual setup, the choice is yours.

United Aircraft has outlined a project to complement its product line with a new 130- to 150-seat twinjet, drawn from technology developed for the Sukhoi Superjet 100 and Irkut MS-21.
The new project will make use of Irkut MS-21 technology
Speaking at an air transport forum in Ulyanovsk, chief executive Mikhail Pogosyan argued that this approach should help reduce development time and costs.
"The new aircraft type will have a great degree of commonality both with the Superjet and MS-21, and fit in between them in terms of capacity," said Pogosyan.
Pogosyan estimates potential global demand at 4,000-5,000 aircraft, of which Russia's domestic market might absorb up to 400. "There will be two variants, powered either by domestic or Western engines," he says, adding that the type will have composite wings.
Russian industry and trade deputy minister Yuri Slyusar expects the treasury to allocate around Rb900 million ($28 million) to marketing and preliminary design work.

If Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott runs for governor in the Republican primary next year possibly facing incumbent Rick Perry Abbott will have a big head start in campaign cash.
The latest fundraising figures came out on Tuesday. Abbott already had a lead over Perry, but now it's even bigger.
Since they can't accept donations again until June after the 83rd Legislative Session ends, this gives Abbott an advantage.
In fundraising reports due Tuesday, Perry, the state's longest-serving governor, raised about $3.5 million from July to December and has just more than $6 million in the bank.
But Abbott outpaced Perry, raising $4.1 million. He now has a whopping $18 million in cash.
That's a 3-to-1 advantage over Perry for a possible March 2014 primary race. A source who has talked to donors told WFAA last week that's what Abbott said he'll do.
Ross Ramsey, executive editor of the Texas Tribune, has covered state politics for years. "You know, the big advantage is that if you've raised your money, you can spend your time on other things in your campaign," he explained. "You can spend your time on organization, on networking, on telling people what your message is on all of the campaigning stuff, and not on the phone raising money. The other guy has to be raising money, and that eats up the clock."
Ramsey noted that Perry and Abbott share many of the same prominent donors, and the unanswered question is: Who will those donors back if both intend to run?
For now, Perry and Abbott aren't talking politics, with both saying they'll announce their intentions this summer.
"Gov. Perry is proud and appreciative of the broad and generous support from Texans across the state, said Texans for Rick Perry spokeswoman Catherine Frazier. He looks forward to working with lawmakers this session to implement a budget that lives within our means, keeps taxes low, and maintains the policies of fiscal conservatism that have made Texas a national leader in job creation and opportunity. These priorities, along with his commitment to upholding robust infrastructure and education programs, will keep Texas strong in the years to come, providing people the freedom and opportunity to thrive.
Eric Bearse, a spokesman for Abbott's campaign, was similarly noncommital. The Attorney General is focused on protecting taxpayers and enforcing the laws of Texas, and is grateful to all his supporters who have made his service possible, he said.

High Cliffs at Vesta's South Pole
November 6, 2012
September 16, 2011 - PASADENA, Calif. -- The south pole of the giant asteroid Vesta reveals cliffs that are several miles or kilometers high, deep grooves, and craters. How this wild scenery formed is not yet clear to the scientists of the Dawn mission – collisions with other asteroids may have played a role as well as internal processes that occurred during the asteroid's early phases. This oblique view has been derived from a digital elevation model based on stereo images obtained with the framing camera instrument aboard NASA's Dawn spacecraft from an altitude of about 1,700 miles (2,700 kilometers) above Vesta's surface. The images recorded during Dawn's survey orbit have a resolution of 260 meters per pixel. The Dawn mission to Vesta and Ceres is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. UCLA is responsible for overall Dawn mission science. The Dawn framing cameras were developed and built under the leadership of the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Katlenburg-Lindau, Germany, with significant contributions by DLR German Aerospace Center, Institute of Planetary Research, Berlin, and in coordination with the Institute of Computer and Communication Network Engineering, Braunschweig. The Framing Camera project is funded by the Max Planck Society, DLR, and NASA/JPL. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA

My Story: 14 Ways We Save Money
- Even though our two sons had long flown the coop, I still cooked as if there were four adults at home. By utilizing portion control, I was able to reduce our grocery bill along with our waistlines.
- Experiment with using less detergent as suggested on the package. Our dishes and clothing are just as clean.
- I found that if I washed my hair every other day, the color lasted longer.
- Ditch the paper napkins and paper towels. A family of four can save up to $44/year using cloth versus paper napkins. Use sponges, microfiber towels, or kitchen towels instead of paper towels.
- I steam most of our vegetables. The leftover water in the steamer, packed with nutrients, is used to water indoor and outdoor plants.
- Plastic grocery bags are used for packaging gifts for mailing.
- Two liter soda bottles are great toys for dogs; just remove the label, top, and plastic ring.
- The last few drops of shampoo, conditioner, face wash, or toner are poured into travel sized bottles.
- Old blankets and sheets are used for dog bedding. Bath towels, wash cloths, socks, and t-shirts are used for house cleaning rags.
- Broken jewelry can be made into other pieces of jewelry or art. Or if gold or sterling silver, they can be sold for cash.
- Consign clothing that is no longer worn.
- Crystal ashtrays became coasters. Crystal bowls are filled with potpourri or seasonal decorations. A pair of brown slacks was altered for walking shorts.
- This is especially important with high-ticket items that may only be used a couple of times. What do I have that I could substitute? Can I borrow this item from someone? Is this a need or a want? Do have I to buy "new" or can I find it used?
- Recently I needed a black evening jacket, rather than buy one, I borrowed one from a friend. Another friend needed a power washer and borrowed ours.
- Be smart and sensitive about regifting. However, if it is new and it is something you can't or won't use, give it to someone who will. Or donate it to Goodwill, Salvation Army, or another charity.
- Gather up those items from the back of the closet and under the bed and return them. Each store has a different policy on returns. However, it is better to have a store credit/gift card to use for something you need than to have things you don't need taking up space in your home.
- Can't return or don't want to regift? Sell on Craigslist, Amazon, eBay, consignment, or at a yard sale. Over the past few months, I've netted almost $850 from Amazon sales.

The ACTA executive has been investigating ways to help clubs increase membership and to help boost the sport. Whilst membership has not fallen it has remained static. A number of initiatives are being looked at to help boost membership. The first initiative is outlined below. It is proposed to offer an incentive to members to become pro-active in signing up new members. The initiative is based on the policy of one year's free membership to a member who signs up two new members, that is, if a member introduces and signs up two new members of similar or higher level, they will receive the next year's membership free. Some criteria as follows: This initiative is open to any current member who introduces two new members at their level or a higher level. The form on the ACTA website must be completed and provided to the club when renewing your membership. The form must be signed by the clubs secretary, include the names of the two new members and be sent to the ACTA office. IF one of the new members joins a different club the form must indicate the club of both new members. This incentive provides a direct benefit for members who are pro-active in building their club and it will help to improve the sport.
The first major national clay target final held under the new rules laid down for the 31st Olympiad. The ACTA knew there would be challenges in adopting the new format but the first attempt, while a learning exercise for all, proved Australia can make it work.

KITCHENER — An animal rights group has released undercover video showing alleged abuse of chicks before they're euthanized at a Maple Leaf Foods hatchery.
Maple Leaf says a third-party veterinarian concluded there is little on the video that constitutes abuse.
The video from Mercy For Animals Canada comes six weeks after the group released video shot at a turkey farm in Bright owned by Kitchener-based Hybrid Turkeys.
The latest video, taken at the Horizon Poultry hatchery in Hanover owned by Maple Leaf, shows "shocking abuse" of sick or injured birds, Anna Pippus, director of legal advocacy for Mercy For Animals, said in an interview Tuesday.
"We documented chicks flung by their wings and slammed into metal dividers, live chicks sent through a hot washing machine to be scalded alive and drowned, chicks shoved into overloaded maceration machines and ground up alive, and sick and injured animals, deprived of proper veterinary care, being discarded like trash."
When the undercover Mercy For Animals worker asks how chicks die in a hot tray-washing machine, an employee chuckles and says: "They boil! I have no sympathy for them anymore."
That employee has been suspended without pay, Maple Leaf spokesperson Dave Bauer said Tuesday. The company has launched a full investigation.
"We have a zero-tolerance policy for animal abuse," Bauer said.
He said an independent veterinarian, with a master's degree from the University of Guelph, viewed the video and found "no significant" animal rights abuses. The main concerns were the callous remarks from the employee and the fact live birds went through the tray washer.
"We have taken corrective actions" to fix the washer issue, Bauer said. "We are open to continuous improvement always."
Ben Brooks, general manager of Maple Leaf poultry operations, said in a statement on the company's website: "Animal welfare guides all of our operating procedures and is a central facet of training in any facility that has animals under its care.
"All our operations are required to undergo comprehensive annual third-party animal welfare audits, conducted by certified PAACO auditors (Professional Animal Auditors Certification Organization). These third-party auditors have open access to our facilities and the freedom to interview any of our employees as part of the audit process.
"To our knowledge, there are few other hatcheries in Canada that do this."
The Hanover video was shot over six weeks by a Mercy For Animals staffer who got a job at Horizon.
The hatchery is one of four owned by Toronto-based Maple Leaf, Pippus said. One is in New Hamburg.
Maple Leaf owns the sprawling former Schneiders meat processing plant on Courtland Avenue in Kitchener. The plant is slated to close later this year.
Pippus said the Hanover hatchery deals with tens of thousands of chicks a day. Some of them get injured from machines that break open the eggs, the commentator on the video says.
"These chicks are born into an industrial hatchery, which causes stress, fear and pain," Pippus said, adding they should be "raised under the nurturing and protective watch of their mothers. Instead, these chicks are being thrown, dropped, scalded in hot water, drowned and ground up alive.
"And, shockingly, grinding chicks alive is standard and acceptable in the poultry industry."
Pippus said the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is investigating the Hanover video. The OSCPA and the Ontario Provincial Police are also investigating the Hybrid Turkeys video, which shows workers trying to euthanize birds by clubbing, kicking and swinging a shovel at them.
Pippus said her group has not asked the OPP to probe the Hanover video.
"Much of it is simply standard practice," she said of what the video shows. "There may be regulatory breaches, but sadly this type of treatment doesn't rise to the level of criminal cruelty."
Some parts of the video do show illegal practices, Pippus said.
"We documented chicks being roughly tumbled into the macerator, overloaded and crushed before being ground up alive," she said. "In addition, it is a violation of the law to send live animals through industrial washing machines to be scalded alive and drowned and to fling chicks and slam them into metal dividers."
Maple Leaf said it's hard to be perfect.
"All the training, documentation, scrutiny, auditing and verification we have in place is to establish a culture and supporting practices that uphold high standards of animal welfare," Brooks said in the statement.
"But no workplace environment is 100 per cent risk-free and we value learning that allows us to constantly improve. We are reviewing all of our protocols at this facility with our people and will take immediate action to ensure we follow the best possible standard of animal care."
Maple Leaf's decision to suspend an employee without pay is "too little, too late," Pippus said.
Pippus wants food producers to live-stream video to the internet.
"If the industry has nothing to hide, they should show the public that they're taking care of their animals," she said. "The public has a right to see how their food is being produced."
Live-steaming to the internet has been endorsed by the American Veterinary Medical Association, Pippus said.
She said Mercy For Animals, based in Toronto, plans to release video from other facilities later this year.

Pre-release negative publicity for Tamil superstar Rajnikanth's mega-budget film Kochadaiiyaan appears to have dampened the enthusiasm of thousands of his fans in the metropolis. Every time a Rajni flick is released, his fans gather at the iconic single-screen cinema hall, Aurora, at Matunga and perform pooja for the success of the movie. Not only the theatre, but its neighbourhood is also gaily decorated.
When Enthiran was released in 2010, a huge cut-out of the legendary actor was put up at the entrance of the theatre and an 'abhishekam' was performed with hundreds of litres of milk by his fans. But, this time around there is not even a fraction of the earlier enthusiasm. Said Nambi Rajan, a prominent Tamil film distributor who manages Aurora, "There will be none of the earlier fanfare. There will be no abhishekam. The initial reports emanating from Chennai appears to have upset Rajni's countless number of fans here."
One of the principal reason for the lack of enthusiasm is apparently the fact that it is an animated film. Rajni fans will not get to see him in flesh and blood in the same way that they used to see in his earlier films. "I am finding it difficult to accept my hero as an animated character," Venkateshwar Ram, a fan observed.
"In any case, people are always sceptical about experimental films," he added. However, Tamil film industry-watchers have stated that in the past also some of Rajni's films had received negative publicity, but subsequently they did rake in the moolah at the cash counters. Kochadaiiyaan is directed by the actor's daughter Soundarya and it has story by KS Ravikumar. The movie, which uses the motion-capture technology for the first time in India, has been made simultaneously in Tamil, Hindi and Telugu and is reported to be released in 3,000 screens across India on Friday. It also slated to be released in Japan, where Rajni's earlier film Muthu was a big hit.
"The superstar is known for his larger-than-life kind of roles and even though Kochadaiiyaan showcases the valour of Rajinikanth's characters in the movie. It is believed that the roles have failed to connect with the audience," according to an online review.

Excess heeling was never an issue. I was spilling enough wind from the main by sheeting out that the rail never came close to the water. If I had to name one thing as the source of most of my problems, it would be that I didn't have the main reefed. The last time I was out in wind like that I had two reefs in the main and a little Yankee-cut jib, and she sailed great.
It also would have been nice to have had a tiller tamer, so that I could have let go for a few seconds and trimmed sail without her coming instantly right up into the wind. Before things got real crazy and I was on my broad reach, I did let go of the tiller and she sailed in a straight line for thirty seconds or so before beginning a slow, easy turn up into the wind. Once it started gusting 20+ though, she just wanted to put her face into it.

Gravity Sheep FREE(Physics 2d)
50,000 - 100,000 downloads
- Better than it seems, challenging
- Really fun
- Free, no ads
- Could include more levels
+ By Overflow Studio
"Rolling with the sheep"
Reviewed by Anna Grace / Jan 16, 2013
Get the sheep to the mushroom no matter what the obstacles are
Gravity Sheep is a seemingly simple physics game in which the goal is to make the sheep get to the mushroom in every level. As simple as that. If you're wondering how to play: Fling the sheep to move it towards your desired direction, being the final objective that it eats the mushroom
As the game advances, new features like drawing lines that need to stand by themselves are also added so the game gets more complex and challenging, as the sheep and the mushroom are placed further every time and seems impossible to connect them both. You need to take into account that the lines drawn are heavy and so the solution will require you to concentrate.
Overflow Studio is the developer of Gravity Sheep free with 45 levels and the premium version. The game appears to be really easy at first sight but as you keep playing, you will realize it's harder than it seems. The graphics are simple but adequate and overall it's a fun entertainment worth your time.
The aim of the game is simple. Roll the sheep to eat the mushrooms.
Each challenging level will test your ability to problem solve and overcome obstacles.
Draw physical lines to allow the sheep to roll and reach the mushrooms. Bear in mind that the longer the line, the heavier it will be. Each level requires logic, skill, and determination!
@playandroid.com : "It does deliver long-term motivation through the fact that the levels seem easy, while actually requires some effort and make you really want to solve the objective"
@androidizen.com : "It's very smooth to play on the Android phone and a great little pick-up-and-play title. We love it!"
@appszoom.com : "The game appears to be really easy at first sight but as you keep playing, you will realize it's harder than it seems"
Rated game of the week on android-apps.com
The full version of the game includes a total of 45 challenging levels

If you have finished the game, keep it installed on your device as secret levels are coming soon.
The game does not contains any sound for the moment, it will come shortly

-Level 3-3 adjusted weight threshold
-Adjusted some display problems
-Added Back button on World 3 in the Main Menu
-Authorized World 2 avoiding to do World 1 another time

I really liked the game, innovative and gets the brain to work a little :p But I have been experiencing no sound. Please solve this :)
I enjoy this game. It makes me think outside the box and makes me laugh when I fail the level.
Worth a download if you enjoy physics games. Scoring based on time and weight of objects drawn was a nice touch.
Its seems to be a very good application of physics and its worth playing
Nice little game
Great workout for the brain
Good game

I think that whatever compromises are made in the segment of 36-38 sailing yachts one can never get a decent home with good sailing capabilities. If I had the time to cruise in the Med like Paulo does (6-7 months) I would certainly have chosen a boat with bigger space to live above and under deck (certainly Luffe 3.6 than Oceanis 38). For the time being I will be sailing weekends only and/or certain weeks. I am not a marina dweller, neither an anchorage one, therefore I do not need that kind of charter boat like the Oceanis 38. In my opinion modern hulls have evolved because of two major trends: (a) better speed downwind (because upwind there are limitations) and (b) bigger living space. They are neither more seaworthy, nor sea kindly. And the Luffe 37 is not an old hull because of narrow beam, reverse stern and traditional bow. I think she would be more efficient both in light and strong winds and she will behave certainly better in waves, especially upwind.
yes, the Oceanis 380 will have a better speed downwind (specially with strong wind), much more interior space, standing height, much less heel but above all will be a more stable platform and an easier to sail boat solo or with a short crew, specially downwind. No, talking in general terms these type of boats are not more seaworthy, nor less (it all depends on each particular design) but they have for the same weight a much bigger overall stability (that's why they are a more stable platform) and they are not more sea kindly, quite the opposite but they are not charter boats.
They are used as charter boats more than boats like Luffe because they are less expensive (and therefore more profitable) and because most sailors prefer to sail in them. Some years ago there was at least a Luffe used as charter boat that does not make Luffes or any other type of boat charter boats.
Don't take me wrong, I love Luffe sailboats and some years back I was seriously considering the Luffe 43ds (I was hopping Oluf would make a new model with a more modern hull, like the one on the 45) but what you say about the Oceanis 38 is just not fair nor true.
The Oceanis 38 has a sailing performance different from the one of the Luffe 37.09 but I bet that its racing rating will be very close if not superior and that means in absolute terms that in overall performance the boats will be very close.
Regarding a boat with 37/38ft not making a good "home" with good sailing performance, if you consider the performance of the Luffe 37.09 good, than you are wrong and the Oceanis 38 is prove of that.
Other boats like the Salona 38 or the Dehler 38 have also a good cruising interior, standing height, lots of storage and a good galley and they will provide a far better performance. They will provide a good second "home", at least if we are talking about a family of four (two children).

The marvel ones?
Are the only Bakugan you don't have access to the Marvel superhero ones?
I could probably help you get some if you'd like. (Just a thought)Computer Bug (talk) 04:44, November 3, 2014 (UTC)
- Matt123hops was promoted. It was not instantly due to the fact I was leaving the country in a few days, and was not keeping track of every message I got, but he was promoted. He also became inactive, and I demoted him. I am perfectly happy with giving him the rights back if he becomes active again.
- I know who you are. I do not remember exactly what happened two or three years ago, perhaps we made some mistakes, at this point in time, it does not matter. If you are willing to look at this Wiki with a clean slate, we can discuss improving it.
- "I heard that you were planning to translate BakuTech Cards but could not find the OCR for it as the images are small. In my case, for as long as I have the physical copy of the card in my hands, I can translate it fair and easy." I don't recall saying that, but if you'll willing to help, that'd be great.
- Do you want admin rights? Sure, if you're willing to be active. If you're active and you ask, I'll probably give whoever it is rights at this point.
My replies. Not necessarily in order, but I hope they're to your liking. Abce2|Talk "Other" 04:49, November 3, 2014 (UTC)
- I understand that. So, am I correct in saying we can put all that behind us, look forward to making this Wiki great, and get you rights? Abce2|Talk "Other" 05:00, November 3, 2014 (UTC)

Our trade
I can actually barely remember what the items are. Let me see what we actually trade for later.--Rhivana|I don't know, but I love Darkus now. 10:57, November 16, 2014 (UTC)
I think I have to only reconsider Denise and Roxtor. But I just don't know what you get/can get now. Can you give me a list?
And Yasha Tagaras is probably the last release of Bakugan not Ikki Tosen according to Bakugan Family.--Rhivana|I don't know, but I love Darkus now. 03:17, November 18, 2014 (UTC)
And are you able to get any Mobile Assault? I can get BakuTech in pretty cheap price now.--Rhivana|I don't know, but I love Darkus now. 18:08, November 18, 2014 (UTC)
...Would you give me money if I can't think of any other stuff?--Rhivana|I don't know, but I love Darkus now. 17:34, November 21, 2014 (UTC)
Sorry, I think there's some misunderstanding. I mean I want Bakugan other than Denise and Roxtor. For Denise, I'm actually not sure to get it or not still, but I got like 2 CamoSurge Roxtor already.--Rhivana|I don't know, but I love Darkus now. 06:00, November 23, 2014 (UTC)
Nope, I don't mean that. I mean among Denise, Tripod Theta Mk2, Gold Gigarth, Gold Barias Gear and Pyrus BakuCamo Surge Roxtor, I want things other than Denise and Roxtor, in other words Tripod Theta Mk2, Gigarth and Barias Gear. For Denise and Roxtor, I want some money instead.--Rhivana|I don't know, but I love Darkus now. 05:34, November 25, 2014 (UTC)
Can you get Ikki Tosen for me? I wanna trade for that in replace of Denise, Tripod Theta Mk2 and Roxtor.
I think you've done a good job on editing the Bakugan Armors page especially the Armor System part...except that I don't think Sole part determines the name by anyways, which is especially obvious for Koppa Kudaku. And in my sense, Bind System doesn't change Attribute of the Bakugan if the front part is switched, as it just changes the species at the very first place.
And hey, I don't think so many photos of different Bind combinations are needed. Just like Battle Gear and BakuNano, we don't need photo of every Battle Gear/BakuNano equipped on every compatible Bakugan, on Gallery of every Battle Gear/BakuNano/Bakugan involved. Instead, you may make a list of them similar to the official one and post it in the BakuTech page Bind section.--Rhivana|I don't know, but I love Darkus now. 12:39, November 26, 2014 (UTC)

Geez, that's pretty amazing! I can't wait to see them together!Computer Bug (talk) 19:18, November 16, 2014 (UTC)
23:55, November 21, 2014 (UTC)23:55, November 21, 2014 (UTC)YuSoniChica123 (talk) 23:55, November 21, 2014 (UTC) Hi! Thanks for the "nice" welcome party! I came Here just to remember when I was a Bakugan fan. I'll try to follow the rules!
A bit late, but congrats on admin. When the sun goes down, the stars come out, like the ghosts of yesterday 18:32, November 27, 2014 (UTC)
Please, please calm down...I just didn't know my message would yield such a response.
Its not possible for me to get another Ikki Tosen and if I do, it will more than suffice for the entire thing already.
Okay, then just pay me US$32 in replace of Denise, Tripod Theta Mk2 and Roxtor. Or else, what can I give you in order to get Ikki Tosen?
Where is an official reference stating that the Bind System does not change the attribute once the Front Hemisphere is changed...or were you trying to say that "The Front Hemisphere does not determine the attribute of any Bind System combination?"
To me, the front head at the center of the Bakugan represents an individual and characteristics such as species and Attribute are just associated with that individual. If the Bakugan is actually a different individual at the very first place, it's another Bakugan, so the Attribute of course can be different. Yup you are right, this theory has no official support.
In rhetorical sense, if pictures stolen from Japanese Blog sites are not (and was NEVER) considered Spam or unnecessary pictures /then/ why are pictures uploaded by the very person who bought them with their own money and had painstakenly photographed each them with their own camera ARE?
The appropriateness of pictures added is not determined by their sources, but their necessities and quality. Or do you think some pics stolen from the Japanese Blog sites are unnecessary or are of low quality?
If you think your very own pic is better than the stolen pic, you can just use the 'Upload a new version of this file' option. For example, you can replace this pic with your own photographed Zeta Munikis pic.
The purpose of showing every single combination in the appropriate galleries is to make the Wiki a full resource of any relevant information which anyone might seek at any point in time.
Appropriate galleries are probably not every page of the respective Bind Bakugan. It's so easy to think that Bakugan with the same system, which allow their parts to be switched, have their switchable parts compatible with each other. Why we don't need to show a Bakugan with their switchable parts actually switched is that their original switchable parts is already self-explaining. What can be done within the Bakugan's own page to show it can Bind is to state it can do so, explain what is Bind briefly and link to a page with detailed explanation.
I know, probably someone would like to see how the Bind system works by seeing the Bakugan's one side of sphere actually connected to another Bakugan's another side of sphere. This is how your newly-made page can work. Link the individual Bind Bakugan main page with BakuTech Bind System page.
If it is necessary to move (or remove) the images from the individual Bakugan galleries into the main BakuTech Bind System Image Gallery; duly inform me and I will do it myself.
Just do it.
Do not expect an article to be perfect the first time it is created. Kindly edit in your own discretion and inclination if necessary and without making any unnecessary remarks in my talk page.
The only reason why I do such a 'unnecessary' thing is that I wanna inform you about the reason of my edit to what you typed, for example the trivia of Ikki Tosen of being the very last Bakugan, so that you won't feel it's unreasonable.

The inactivity thing is only in cases where you don't say anything about it. If you just up and disappear for two months, I just assume you've lost interest.

text: All My Sons is the 1986 TV adaptation of Arthur Miller's 1947 Broadway play (a film version, starring Edward G. Robinson and Burt Lancaster, was produced in 1948). James Whitmore stars as Joe Keller, a bullying industrialist who'd been accused of selling defective weapon parts to the government during World War II. He was acquitted when the court decided that it was his business partner who was responsible. Keller and his family desperately await the post-war return of son Larry, who was officially listed as missing in action. Larry's fiance Ann (Joan Allen), the daughter of Keller's imprisoned business partner, is attracted to Larry's brother Chris (Aidan Quinn), but she has vowed to remain faithful to her missing fiance. The play's third act reveals that it was indeed Joe Keller, and not his partner, who was responsible for the defective material -- and that his penny-pinching carelessness ended up costing the life of his own son Larry. Michael Learned co-stars as Keller's wife, who like her husband vainly tries to lock out the truth. First telecast January 19, 1987, All My Sons was the sixth-season opener of PBS's American Playhouse. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

After years of delays, Amsterdam RAI is getting its own hotel and with its 650 rooms, Nhow RAI will win the title of largest hotel in the Netherlands. The design of the building was chosen from eleven candidates and is designed by Rem Koolhaas from well-known Rotterdam architecture firm OMA. [...] Among the features will be a virtual 3D holographic meeting space for having "in person" meetings with the holographs of people in another location.

In times when the rest of the city is rapidly becoming extremely expensive, Amsterdam's ugly light gray and pink-yellow housing blocks are staying affordable, with rents contingent on income. Their continued presence in the city is becoming a memorial for a once-existing Amsterdam, in which almost all space in the city was equally distributed.

Until now the Amsterdam museum has usually presented its Van Goghs in a simple chronological sequence, set against white walls. This display originally seemed appropriate for the building's architecture, a series of stark white galleries designed by Gerrit Rietveld, the leading Modernist architect of the De Stijl movement. The white-cube spaces have now been transformed by coloured walls, varying according to the artist's different periods [...].

Dubbed "Dementia Village" by CNN, Hogewey is a cutting-edge elderly-care facility—roughly the size of 10 football fields—where residents are given the chance to live seemingly normal lives. With only 152 inhabitants, it's run like a more benevolent version of The Truman Show [...] Last year, CNN reported that residents at Hogewey require fewer medications, eat better, live longer, and appear more joyful than those in standard elderly-care facilities.

Adapting to an unprecedented aging population means adjusting elder-care expectations and forms. So-called "Silver" architecture aims to address this growing population, but what about an urbanism of the elderly? Knowing that active social bonds can actually have long-term health benefits, why not "silver" urbanism?

"Recently we have witnessed the mounting of very large development projects in European and American cities. There is a striking physical similarity among the schemes and also a convergence embodied in private-sector involvement and market orientation."

 European urbanist Lea Olsson and Jan Loerakker gets to the bottom of recent urban development ventures in Europe and set up a pattern repeated in many other places in the World.

 "This essay doesn't try to blame the public-private model for certain urban failures, but rather tries to make clear what factors are determining a positive or negative outcome. Looking at the role that, for instance, architectural firm BIG played in the Ørestad development, this leaves us with the question how we should position ourselves as architects and urban planners in this contemporary power structure. Should we work in close affiliation with private investors who give us room to express ourselves – or will this limit our social role? Will the state only allow us to build the mediocre – or do we need public influence to add meaningful and long-lasting buildings and spaces to the city? In the precarious balance of public-private partnerships the answer of our discipline to those questions will be c...

An overscaled monument flagrantly aloof from its surroundings, the addition is a laggard symbol of an era when the Netherlands, like this country, was awash in capital for boldly sculptural new projects. As such it's a reminder of how slow architecture can be. The $159-million extension is the architectural personification of boom-time thinking.

University of Kentucky College of Design Assistant Professor Kyle Miller led an eight-week design program in Amsterdam for twelve undergraduate students. The students participated in two courses: a six-credit design studio and a three-credit seminar that comprised a series of intensive design workshops. The primary objective of the design studio was to prototype design and program solutions for large, recently abandoned buildings in Amsterdam.

 Wiel Arets Architects have shared with us a recently completed renovation/restoration of a former wine storage warehouse located on the edge of Amsterdam's 17th century UNESCO canal ring.

 De Nieuwe Liefde ('The New Love') is a theatre and community centre located in a monumental white building on Amsterdam's Da Costakade that was originally constructed in 1904 as storage space for a local wine company. After falling into disrepair, and in accordance with the last tenants leaving the property in 2007, the De Liefde was completely rebuilt by Wiel Arets Architects and renamed De Nieuwe Liefde. The reconstruction transformed the existing building into a series of new spaces composed of a main hall with seating for 230, a conference room with space for 60, a choir space for 50, a library, a separate restaurant-café and a grand foyer that decompresses into a central circulation void.

 Prior to the renovation the building retained many of its original Neo-Renaissance and Art N...

How many times have you faced eye infection problems? Have you ever wondered how important is our sight for us? Eye care is a serious concern that is often neglected by people who lack health insurance.
Our vision is one of those wonderful gifts most of us take for granted. The only time we even have caused to think about our vision as such is when we think about a blind person who has no vision at all, or our own vision begins to fail us. Being aware of the importance of protecting your vision can help you to avoid problems with it in the future.
Eye care is essential to maintaining the health of our eyes. People with eye diseases that greatly affect their vision face many problems. They are physically hampered by impaired vision. They are not able to perform daily activities like driving or working. Some are barely able to see or have lost their vision entirely. They are also faced with emotional stress. People with dramatic eye problems face many issues that can lead to solitude and depression. This strain also affects friends and families.
Pimples around the eye area or on the eyes are simply showing that the eyes are infected with germs and you do not wash and clean your eyes properly. For eye care it is important that you wash your eyes with mildly cold water properly.
Eye problems can also be very costly to individuals. They are not able to enjoy everyday moments or special events. The need for eye wear, eye surgeries, and other needs can greatly affect a person or a family is income. Some people are not even able to work because of their eye problems. There are several steps everyone can take to help prevent eye diseases and the problems related to them. It starts with knowledge of keeping the eye healthy and following good guidelines for maintaining good eye health.
Those who are outside most of the day should use protective sunglasses or eyeglasses to prevent heavy exposure to ultraviolet light. People who smoke or take certain medications should ask their doctor if they are more likely to have eye diseases because of family background. These little measures can help your eyes healthy and keep all the emotional, physical, and financial problems that come with eye problems away.

Portugal 2 Ghana 1: Highlights, key battles and what the result means
Published on Jun 27, 2014 2:38 AM
On any other day, Cristiano Ronaldo would have walked away with five goals and Portugal would be enjoying an extended run at the World Cup.
Instead, the world's best footballer was struck by a rare case of profligacy in front of goal, even as his late winner earned his country a 2-1 win over Ghana. It was three goals too little for the Real Madrid superstar, whose side lost out on second spot in Group G by goal difference to the United States.
Shots that sailed inches wide of the goal and saves that drew gasps from the crowd meant the Portuguese crashed out at the group phase for the first time since 2002.
- Ronaldo could easily have had a hat-trick in the first half alone. In an apparent attempt at the tournament's best goal award, his audacious effort from deep on the right flank struck the crossbar, followed by a header from six yards that drew a stunning reflex stop from Ghana goalkeeper Fatau Dauda.
- CR7's trademark rasping free-kick was later parried away by Dauda again, before two flicks on the back of incisive runs each creeped agonisingly past the post.
- Ghana's No. 1 was beaten by his own man when defender John Boye inexplicably sliced Miguel Veloso's cross into his own goal.
- Captain Asamoah Gyan responded for the Black Stars as he knew best, nodding home Kwadwo Asamoah's cheeky outside-of-the-foot pass.
- Ronaldo's only souvenir from a traumatic Brazil trip was picked up in the 80th minute. With perhaps his only mistake of the game, Dauda punched an innocuous looping cross right into the path of the FIFA World Player of the Year. Already angered by his earlier misses, the 29-year-old powered home with his left foot and turned to dash back to the centre-circle without a hint of celebration.
Key battle
Cristiano Ronaldo vs Ghana defence
It takes more than one man to stop the Portugal phenomenon. In this case, even the joint efforts of Harrison Afful, John Mensah and Boye could not deter Ronaldo from carving out scoring opportunities with ease.
Luckily for them, this was a rare night off for the Madrid machine. It speaks volumes of the standards he has set when being the match-winner in a World Cup fixture will be viewed as an average performance.
Man of the Match
Joao Moutinho
While the headlines - classy and controversial alike - will surround Ronaldo, Portugal playmaker Moutinho quietly put on a midfield masterclass. Closely stalked by three Ghanaians, the Monaco player had the poise and vision to stroke a defence-splitting pass for Veloso that led to the opening goal.
The 27-year-old also deserves credit for continuing to find ways to work with Nani, whose crossing was yet again as poor as his haircut. Moutinho's true potential will come to the fore when he is surrounded by more high-calibre players.
What the result means
Simple: the summer holidays have begun for both teams. Ghana's campaign ended in a farce as key midfielders Sulley Muntari and Kevin-Prince Boateng were kicked out of the squad for indiscipline. The players had also reportedly refused to train until their appearance money - totalling US$3 million - was flown in by private jet by the Ghanaian government.
Ronaldo has perhaps wasted his last good shot at football's biggest prize. As he himself noted, Portugal's supporting cast has not been good enough, lacking the talent, depth and conviction to back up one of the greatest players to have ever played the game.

MONDAY, May 13 (HealthDay News) -- Close to half of U.S high school students text while driving, a habit that dramatically increases their risk of getting into a potentially fatal car crash, a new study shows.
Teens who reported texting while driving were more likely to engage in other risky driving behaviors such as driving under the influence of alcohol or not wearing a seat belt, the study also found.
The research was published online May 13 and in the June print issue of the journal Pediatrics.
Researchers used responses from more than 8,500 high school students 16 and older who were asked if they had texted while driving during the past month, as part of a 2011 national survey on risky youth behavior. Overall, 44.5 percent of teens said they had done so on one or more days. One in four texted while driving on a daily basis, the study showed. The older the students, the more likely they were to text and drive. Male high school students texted while driving more often than female students.
"The numbers are fairly concerning," said study author Emily O'Malley Olsen, a health statistician in the department of adolescent and school health at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "It just takes a second of looking away from the road to get into trouble."
Some of the onus falls on parents and pediatricians to counsel teens on the dangers of texting while behind the wheel, she suggested.
"Teens are pretty new drivers and less able to recognize hazardous driving situations and they tend to perceive risk a little bit differently than adults," Olsen said. "Parents should monitor their kids and have frequent discussions about things that can come up while driving such as texting, playing with the radio or playing around with their buddies."
Other experts stressed the importance of making sure teens get the message that texting while drivin

Tottenham fullback Kyle Walker has hailed the England form of teammate Andros Townsend.
Walker reckons he will be giving defenders nightmares at the World Cup if England can book their finals place by beating Poland tomorrow night.
The Spurs defender said: "He's really confident, as you saw against Montenegro. He's not the nervous type. He just wants to get at players.
"As a full-back you don't want a right midfielder who is left footed running at you. It's a dreadful thing.
"He can go both sides and he's quite confident, as you saw with his goal, to go with either foot. I actually told him at half-time he was going to score. I just sensed something.
"He was on fire and getting at people. I just didn't think it was going to be such a goal – and with his right foot as well!
"I just hope it's a stepping stone for him to go on and showcase his talent. I'm made up for him. When I found out he was starting I think I was more excited than he was.
"It's just because I know what he can do, I play at club level with him. I train with him and he's a nightmare. We've had some good wingers at Tottenham – Gareth Bale, Aaron Lennon. We just seem to breed wingers.
"Andros sleeps, eats and breathes football and I pray to God that this is just a stepping block for him to go on and do big things.
"He's got tough competition in the team. He's not just walked into the team and has had to bide his time.
"But I hope he keeps putting in performances like that and we get to where we want to be in the summer."
