VIENNA, Va., Nov. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The President & CEO of MicroTech Tony Jimenez has been appointed to the Harvard Journal of Hispanic Policy (HJHP) Executive Advisory Board. Jimenez was selected for his business success, leadership and continued dedication to the Hispanic Community.
According to their website, the Harvard Journal of Hispanic Policy (HJHP), published by the John F. Kennedy School of Government (Harvard Kennedy School) at Harvard University, was founded in 1985 and is an annual graduate student-run, non-partisan review that publishes interdisciplinary works on politics and policy-making as these topics affect the Latino community in the United States of America.
"It is an honor to be appointed and I look forward to being a part of the HJHP as it carries out its mission to address issues related to the U.S. Latino community's political, social and economic development," said Jimenez.
The largest Hispanic-Owned IT Integrator in the U.S., MicroTech provides Technology Services, Network Systems Integration, Product Solutions, Cloud Computing, Unified Communications & Collaboration, Cyber Security, Mobility, and Social Media Solutions as well as leadership/management skills courses, business simulations and vital industry certifications as part of MicroTech University to commercial enterprises, along with the public sector — managing more than half-a-million technology users daily. A prime contractor of over 100 Federal projects and more-than-25 procurement vehicles, MicroTech offers access to 2500 vendors and a million technology products and services across the government.
Other appointees announced this month include Ms. Alejandra Campoverdi, Senior Advisor, Innovation and Communications Strategy for Univision Network News, Hon. Grace Flores-Hughes, the first woman to serve as the Director/Assistant Attorney General of the Community Relations Office at the Department of Justice, and Ms. Alma Guajardo-Crossley, Director for Diversity Initiatives at General Motors.
"I have always had a great admiration for the people and policy perspectives of the Harvard Journal of Hispanic Policy," said Ms. Campoverdi. "As former Senior Editor for Interviews at HJHP, it is a special privilege to serve on the Board. I look forward to working with Hon. Grace Flores-Hughes, Mr. Jimenez, Ms. Guajardo-Crossley, and the other Executive Advisory Board members to advance the mission of HJHP."
Jimenez serves on many other boards including the U.S. Department of Commerce National Advisory Council on Minority Business Enterprise, the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, the U.S. - Mexico Chamber of Commerce, and the Latino Donor Collaborative. He has also recently been recognized with the PODER Entrepreneurship Award.

[Column] Elder Scrolls Online: The XP Boost Potion
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
I have never had a problem with anything a company sells that speeds things up. Some people either don't have or don't like to spend the time on portions of a game.
Items sold that make your character more powerful in competitive situations, and can't be earned with time are the only things I believe are pay2win.
Cosmetics and anything sold to speed things up are great. I am glad most games have gotten away from the direct pay2win items and can still make money.

I have been playing since open beta, so off and on for about 1 year. One of the things that I really enjoyed up to now is the open world feel. Most games today seem to go with what I call the "quest hub" feel.

I wasn't sure after first weekend, but the other two weekends just drew me in more and more.

LFG tools are great. Most dungeons today are not. Dungeons in Asheron's Call were fun. With todays open tagging and everyone getting their own loot they would be great.
I miss non instanced dungeons. Not every dungeon had a boss. They were places to hunt and explore. There were more than just a few. It was fun finding people trapped because they were in over their head. You could help out or not.
Would like to see more open dungeons that feel like part of the world. With open tagging and loot the way it works today, I think it is time to return to that.

[Column] General: The Trouble With Instances
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
Asheron's Call did not have instances. It was usually good to run into people in the dungeons. The only time it was a pain was when you needed a specific mob. Todays everyone one gets their own loot/exp pretty much fixes that.
Of course a lot of Asheron's Call dungeons were just different areas. No big boss, just another area to explore.
[Column] General: The Impact of Loot
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
Asheron's Call has best loot system that I have played. Half of it is because there are multiple damage types and armor had individual protects to those types on each piece of armor. What makes it great is that you can be hit in the hand and only your gloves matter.
Now knowing that and loot is randomized. All stats on loot is random, other than quest rewards.
Almost all loot is useful because of tinkering (crafting). Loot made from different materials. You could have 5 staffs but all are different materials. If they are useless to you can sell, trade or break them down into crafting materials.
In the end the randomized loot in general is great. Similar to Diablo style loot on the random side.
[Column] General: Forgetting the Multiplayer Bit
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
I forge alone a lot. I enjoy the solo aspect of MMOs. Sorry but most non MMOs don't have the world size or complexity of the MMO.
What I miss is the good old days of being able to solo, but finding areas that would be much more fun with my friends. I started my MMO experience with Asheron's Call. A lot of it could be soloed, but was much more fun and quicker to bring friends along.
A lot of the soloing I do today is because my buds are busy with life away from games. That is just how it goes, especially as we age. I am still waiting on a new MMO where I can tell them they MUST play this.
Never have a been a huge fan of forced grouping, but some isn't bad. I like "suggested" grouping content so I can test my soloing prowess.
Firefall: PvP 'Shut Off' for the Time Being
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
I got into Firefall about 2 months ago. Love the PvE game. Not sure how long it will last, but it is still a lot of fun. I do enjoy playing all the different frames though. The thought of other parts of the world opening up sounds great.
I don't care about the PvP at all. Loved BGs in WoW and I enjoy Planetside 2 a lot too, but have no need for it in Firefall.
If they do add PvP back I hope has something to do with the world and not arenas. I picture something akin to early Alterac Valley in WoW. Capturing towers and bases and your faction's npcs gaurd it and such. Of course also still fighting against NPC factions.
Although I am fine with how PvE is now.
[Column] General: The MMO Sequel
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
I do feel for the EQ players a little bit. I was in Asheron's Call for 4+ years. When they did what they did with AC 2 I thought it was horrible. I did play the game for a bit and even enjoyed it a little. The only thing wrong was that it is was not Asheron's Call 2 to me.
With that in mind I will completely understand any EQ loyalist's hate of this game. I did play a decent amount of EQ 2, but not enough to care if they change it up a bit.
With they way MMOs have handled sequels vs most other games, changing everything but setting, I don't expect true sequels anymore.
A lot of what has been released about EQNext is what I have imagined an great MMO, well Asheron's Call 3, would be. For me it would be if the AI acts how I imagine it when they said what they did. It will really make for a lot of different gameplay, and to an explorer like myself that is good news.
I also hope the worlds get back to being a bit more on the larger side. Coming from Asheron's Call I do miss a large world.

Like everything about the game so far, especially the crafting! In almost every other game I avoided crafting. I don't want to spend my time watching bars go by. Firefall crafting is my cup of tea. I am not making 500 of something to advance crafting. You have limited spots to refine, build and research. Those can take a long time, there by locking that spot for that amount of time. The great thing is I don't have to sit there and watch it. I can go out and play the game while my manufacturing que is full.
I certainly do not thump all the time, but it can be quite fun. It can be a fun challenge, especially solo. I have lost quite a few thumpers already trying to test my solo chops on em.
Firefall is the first MMO in a long time that I can't wait to get back to. There are just a lot of little things that make it all come together.
There are other things as well but you get the picture. I also feel they have really been tweaking/fixing the game since open beta. Seems as they are starting to add more difficulty to some missions with mini bosses or that is what I call them at least. I was quite surprised to get down deep in a cave only to see a large creature spiting out little ones. Those lil bastards were constantly webbing me, slowing me down and covering some of my screen with webs. This was surprising because I had played quite a bit the week previous and never run across one. I have seen a few variations on the "mini bosses" since.

News & Features Discussion « General Discussion
Lost, confused and intrigued for the first few days. It has been so long since I have played an MMO that I had to learn. I was following Firefall and Planetside 2 when they were first annouced. Planetside 2 came out and I mostly forgot about Firefall.
Open beta hit and I didn't really care, but decided I should at least give it a go. I am so happy I did. Love the game thus far. It has probably been since Asheron's Call that I felt "lost" in the world and liked it.
Reading a few of the posts here and learning that there are other zones makes it that much better. I see the potential with the melding and everything. I have put quite a few hours in and just unlocked my first advanced frame with pilot tokens.
As I say with most games, don't listen too much to others opinions and just play the game. You may be pleasantly surprised as I was.

The Top 125 Political Websites On The Net Version 3.0
Once again, I've decided it's time to rank the most popular political websites using: Alexa.com…
Do keep in mind that…
1) While I think this is a fairly comprehensive list, I'm sure some pages were probably left out. That wasn't intentional, it's just something that is going to happen when you try to take on an undertaking as massive as this one.
2) For a variety of reasons, I did not include websites run by either the Republican or Democratic party, newspapers, or pages run by the networks. Also, it goes without saying that sometimes I had to make judgement calls about whether certain pages that don't necessarily exclusively cover politics were going to make the list.
3) Alexa can't properly read all the: Blog*spot: pages so they all receive the same rank. Because of that, none of them could be included.
4) Last but not least, Alexa sometimes cannot distinguish between the main page and secondary page of a website. For example, Alexa gives: Eric Alterman's blog: the same ranking as: MSNBC: which meant I had to leave out a few blogs of interest that were hosted on much larger pages.
All 125 websites are listed with their Alexa rank following their link. So for example, a "1" would mean the page was the most popular website on the net. A "50,000" would mean the 50,000th most popular page on the net. With that being said, let's go ahead and take a look at the rankings.

Le personnel étaient plus qu'attentionné avec notre fille. Toujours souriant à toute heure du jour et toujours dévoué. Le pourquoi que je ne mets pas 5 étoiles c'est que ce n'est pas un hôtel cinq étoiles. Je le recommande à tous.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
The staff are friendly. And the pool is too good and the breakfast food was not bad
but, Lizards in the room appear too surprised
The staffs are said to symbolize good luck in Bali
every morning Yoga was a very good experience
i spend good times.

Medals, Service And Political Ads
Published: August 20, 2004
To the Editor:
Re ''Politics as Usual'' (editorial, Aug. 19):
The so-called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth are open to criticism on more than one level.
By making accusations of fraud in the matter of John Kerry's medals for valor, particularly during the presidential campaign, not to mention so many decades after the Vietnam conflict, the former military officers making up this organization have opened their motivations to question.
This charge calls into question every medal for valor awarded in Vietnam, perhaps every medal awarded for valor from the Revolutionary War to the present.
By making such ill-timed and specious charges against Senator Kerry, these former Navy officers have sullied George W. Bush's presidency as well. Many will mistakenly believe that President Bush is somehow making this awful slur against Senator Kerry's character by proxy.

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
In this succinct course, author, speaker, and marketing expert Lorrie Thomas Ross provides an overview of the basics of branding your business or yourself through consistency, communication, and effective collateral. The course shows how images, messaging, and market positioning can help you build visibility and credibility among customers. It includes real examples of successful brands and how aspects such as color, logos, and fonts, not to mention a strong web presence, contribute to their success.
Brands can be controlled if there is a clearly defined promise and that promise is consistently delivered. We start our brand's storytelling from a place of promise: brand promise. Take some time to define what your brand promise is about. FedEx's promise is that packages get there overnight, guaranteed. Nationwide Insurance promises that Nationwide is on your side. My company, Web Marketing Therapy, has a promise of healthy marketing advice and support. A brand promise can tap emotions, be a deliverable, or focus on experience.
Here's the three things you need to address for a compelling brand promise. One, it must be credible. This means it must come from a place of heart, of authenticity. Make sure your brand promise is aligned with why you are in business. Two, the brand promise must have value or benefit to the people you want to serve. Third, and most importantly, promises are only good if they're kept. Your organization's storytelling becomes powerful story selling when the brand has a clearly defined and delivered promise.
A cool logo won't do us any good if the experience doesn't match the promise. Some companies publicly share their brand promise or some choose to make it an internal company mantra. No matter how old or new your organization is, it is healthy to go back and look at your brand promise to see if there is one. If not, then there is a clear step to taking your brand-building process. Take time to be clear on how you or your organization want to be defined but also be open to receiving feedback. Customer surveys can be a great way to capture honest feedback.
Listen and understand what the marketplace says about your brand, to ensure that there is no identity crisis that needs to be addressed. Once you're clear on your brand promise, you're ready to start communicating it.

This shirt is so cute with glitter in the numbers - makes it "girly". But... it is sized SO small (I usually take an XL/1X and I had to get a 3X)!! Then when I washed it, I didn't dry it for fear of shrinkage, it stretched all out. Very poor quality material - after wearing only once, it has holes along the seams in a few places.

In the Know: New flea market opening soon ... again
Q: Several months ago, there was an article about a new flea market coming on U.S. 41, east of 951. I have not heard anything else about it. Opening was approximately March to April. What happened to it?
- Loretta Morvay, Marco Island
Q: My question is regarding the flea market that is being built on the East Trail, east of 951. We had a number of opening dates and now we hear nothing. Will the flea market be opening this year or is it a dead issue?
- C. Custer, Naples
A: "We're Almost Done! Opening Date Announced Soon!"
That's a headline on bigcypressmarketplace.com, the Web site for the Big Cypress Market Place. That's "done" as in completed, not dead. "Soon" is June.
"Our goal is June," said Clare Ulik, director of marketing and public relations for Basik Development, builder, owner and operator of the Market Place.
I know what you are saying. Keep in mind that June is just a goal, the latest target.
Late February or early March was the goal reported in my January column, early December was the planned date mentioned in an October column, and the expected opening date was November in my column last July.
In a story published in August 2006, the business was slated to open in September 2007.
Construction delays, especially permitting setbacks, have kept the Big Cypress Market Place from opening as planned.
"We just got our final permit a couple of weeks ago," Ulik said.
The Market Place, located off U.S. 41 East four miles east of Collier Boulevard, offers air-conditioned shopping from hundreds of vendors, including a fresh produce market, winery and entertainment area. The flea market area is 75 percent to 80 percent leased, and the produce market and restaurant space are filled, Ulik said.
"Erase preconceived ideas you've ever had of flea markets," she said. "We're going to be new, exciting and completely unique."
The upscale flea market will be open year-round 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Fridays through Sundays.
I know what you are saying: "Just open already!"
Q: What is going in the former building of Rooms To Go on U.S. 41 North? There are workers there daily rehabbing the interior of the building.
- Anne, Naples
A: OfficeMax is creating a new store in the shell of the former Rooms To Go building at 3770 U.S. 41 N. The target date for opening is in mid-July, according to Alan Cooper, the new store's manager.
In late 2006, Rooms To Go opened a new Naples store about two blocks down the road at 3520 U.S. 41 N. that nearly doubled its space. The new location was the former site of Hodges Funeral Chapel.
The new Rooms To Go store spans 28,000 square feet, while the old store — the new OfficeMax — is slightly more than 15,000 square feet.

Six-month ordeal of schoolboy, 15, accused of assault for 'throwing snowball at teen girl'
- Mother demands apology from Crown Prosecution Service
'Treated like a criminal': The mother of a 15-year-old boy (not pictured) has demanded an apology from prosecutors after he was put on trial for throwing a snowball at a teenage girl
A mother has demanded an apology from the Crown Prosecution Service after her 15-year-old son was put on trial for throwing a snowball in the face of a teenage girl.
The teenager was charged with assault by beating and has been dragged to court five times since the February incident.
His ordeal until only ended on Thursday when magistrates ruled there was no case to answer and threw the case out.
Yesterday, the boy's mother said she was furious at prosecutors for ever bringing the case and denied her son had even thrown the snowball.
The woman, who cannot be identified to protect the anonymity of her son, said: 'The past six months have been a nightmare for my son, with this ridiculous prosecution hanging over him.
'We were so relieved when the magistrates said there was no case to answer but we are angry it ever came to this.
'God only knows how much this prosecution has cost the taxpayer. We've been told it's many thousands of pounds. What a waste of money.
'My son has been treated like a criminal and for what? A snowball that may or may not have been thrown, may or may not have hit a person and in any case was not thrown by him.'
The maximum sentence for an adult convicted of assault by beating is six months in custody, and the Ministry of Justice said the penalty remains the same for youth offenders - although magistrates would be more likely to take account of a defendant's young age and mitigation when sentencing at a youth court.
The teenager was arrested at his home the morning after a teenage girl complained he had thrown a snowball at her at a local recreation area.
The boy's mother, who lives with her family in a village near Leicester, added: 'He's only a young boy and was frightened. He was kept in a cell all day and all night.'
She said her 'jaw dropped' when he was charged with assault by beating and appeared in court the following day.
What cost to the taxpayer? The boy's six-month ordeal finally came to an end this week when magistrates at Leicester Youth Court (above) threw the case out. A spokesman for the CPS (headquarters above) said the prosecution was justified
The court imposed bail conditions which included a 7pm to 7am curfew.
The family attended court sessions on five occasions, including a trial at Loughborough, in March, when the case was adjourned.
At Thursday's Leicester Youth Court hearing, the teenage complainant and two other witnesses gave evidence.
But none could be sure the boy, who had been having a snowball fight with a friend, had targeted the complainant. After listening to the prosecution case, magistrates ruled there was no case to answer.
His mother added: 'The whole thing has been totally stupid.The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) should have never sanctioned this prosecution.'
She said she wanted an apology from the CPS.
Speaking after the case, the boy said: 'I just want to put all this behind me now and get on with things. The past six months have been horrible.'
A CPS spokesman said there had been 'clear evidence the complainant had been deliberately targeted and that this was more than just a youthful snowball fight.'
He added: 'The evidence, including two witness statements, pointed to the fact the defendant had made and thrown the snowball and made comments of a hostile nature afterwards.
'This, coupled with the fact that the complainant was recovering from a serious eye injury, meant a court should be asked to judge the case.
'If, however, during a hearing, evidence by witnesses appears to fluctuate from the statements provided, a court can determine there is no case to answer .'
Guidance issued by the Sentencing Council says custodial sentences for juveniles should only be imposed in the most serious cases.
A spokesman for Leicestershire Police said: 'The incident was fully investigated and the evidence put before the CPS to decide if charges should be brought.'

text: Mobile Adobe targets tablet users with Photoshop Touch and a family of new apps October 3, 2011 1:01 PM Devindra Hardawar 0 If you're not reaching, engaging, and monetizing customers on mobile, you're likely losing them to someone else. Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. Adobe doubled-down on tablets today with the announcement of six Touch mobile applications for the iPad and Android tablets, including the long-awaited Photoshop Touch app, at the Adobe Max developer's conference in Los Angeles. The Adobe Touch Apps bring elements of the company's high-end Creative Suite software to touch-enabled tablets for general consumers at just $9.99 each. They also serve as a way for Adobe to promote its new Creative Cloud service, which lets you store, collaborate and share your creative efforts from Adobe's mobile apps and other software. There's little surprising about Photoshop Touch: It's a tablet image editor with support for layers and plenty of effects. It also packs in a feature exclusive to tablets, the Scribble Selection Tool, which lets you easily extract objects by scribbling on the screen with your fingers. The other apps serve specific purposes: Adobe Collage makes it easy to wrangle together images and text to create gorgeous collages. Ideas is a vector-based drawing app, Kuler helps you create color themes for your projects, and Proto lets you jot down wireframes for websites and mobile apps. You can show off all of your work to friends and clients with the Debut app. All of the new Touch apps will be available on Android tablets in November, and Adobe expects to announce iOS availability early next year (the Ideas app has already been released for the iPad). The company says the $9.99 pricing will be introductory, so don't be surprised if that price jumps after the apps' initial release. VB's research team is studying mobile user acquisition... Chime in here, and we'll share the results.

Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
The minivan Tour with Diana's guide gives us a overall pictures of paris & sufficient information for us to plan our remaining tour. Diana is a wonderful & talented tour guide! the experience at Eiffel Tour & cruise along Seine River was great even though it is a bit "hot" due to the sun.
Joanne P
The guide was absolutely fantastic. While driving he supplied many details of Paris and surrounding sites. Would recommend this tour. Having lunch at the Eiffel Tower gives you immediate access without waiting in line.
Joseph M
Pleasant cruise good sights friendly boat operator.
Kwok W
We had a very knowledgeable & helpful drivertour guide name Jose and this is a MUST if you have limited time in Paris and want to see the essential sites and get a overall history of Paris. You will be dropped off at the major sites and given 20-40 mins to walk around and take pictures Thanks again Jose!!!
Peter T
We loved it. In a short period of one day you get to know and see a little about a lot of Paris. The lunch at the Eiffel Tower was beautiful. The meal excellent. The guide "Fred " made you feel comfortable
Daisy V
Puerto Rico
The tour was excellent. The driver was very friendly and knew the information given very well. The only complaint that I have is the minivan. This car does not acomodate 8 persons, only 7. Two persons in the front seat with the driver is just not confortable enough for two adults. We were able to change the front seat with 2 other persons that agreed to the change. If no person would had agreed to change the seat with us, the only other posibility would had been returning to our hotel and cancel the tour.
Lisa B
Having been to Paris many times I booked this tour strictly for my mother's benefit as this was her first trip. I did not expect to enjoy and learn so much for myself. We had a great guide and see the city from the advantage of the mini van and the Seine was an extra plus. The biggest surprise was the food at the Eiffel lunch was fantastic! Well worth the booking!
Having so little time in Paris this was the perfect experience to see the sites of the city. When seeing the crowds at the Eiffel Tower our driver managed to get us straight through to the front of the waiting crowds and we enjoyed lunch with a view of Paris from the tower. Excellent.
SueAnn A
For a first time visitor to Paris, this tour covered all of the highlights, and helped us determine where to revisit the following day. The tour guide was very informative and helpful.
Angela S
As a solo traveler, this was a great way to see the city and meet fellow travelers. Our guide was very informative and pleasure to travel with. Not having to wait in line at the Eiffel Tower was a huge plus. As we moved quickly into the tower, we saw the very long line of people waiting. It was too cool to eat lunch in the Eiffel Tower and look out upon the city. It was just a great day. I thought it was a great way to get your bearing and decide what you wanted to in more detail. I knew that I wanted to see the Arc de Triomphe, but I did not need to walk to it. We circled it and I got great pictures. This tour allowed me to experience Paris in a compact period of time. This is a great tour if you want to avoid Eiffel Tower lines, have a limited amount of time in Paris, or simply want to get your bearing.
Edward M
We were very happy!
Catherine D
Even in light rain Paris is beautiful! Lunch was excellent at Altitude 95.
Caitlin M
I purchased this tour for my daughter who was overseas, and doing this was easy and very efficient. She had no trouble with the vouchers or contacting the tour, and she really enjoyed the tour. I have since purchased more tours in other countries for her with no problems. I would recommend this as a great way to book tours. Thank you for making it so easy and smooth.
Dieter R
A great tour with enough time to explore the major features. Very competent tour guide. I would highly recommend it.
James T
The tour guide was very interesting. The tour covered a lot of sights. The lunch at the Eiffel Tower was very good.
Josephine W
United Kingdom
Loved it but for the price would have expected a glass of wine or champagne to be included in the lunch, that's my only fault! Had a wonderful driver and a wonderful day, thank you so very much.
Given as a gift to my son traveling with my sister. Both loved the tour and the great guide who combined a tremendous amount of information with humor. No waiting in lines and perhaps the best comment from my sister who has been all over the world she would not hesitate to sign up for another tour from this company and she has pretty high standards.
Ann O
I loved the tour; the guide was knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor. I would never ever recommend lunch at the Eiffel Tower - the waitstaff were completely unfriendly, and the food was terrible. Besides that, it was a great tour. Thank you.
Sharon P
If you are short on time, or even if you have sufficient time, this tour covers all the highlights of Paris that you will want to see. I highly recommend this tour. We had six people in the van, along with the tour guide, so it was a much more relaxed and informative tour than we would have had with a larger tour.
Jason H
Excellent! Much more than what I expected.
The food is good and the minivan is nice.
Very good, friendly, and well-versed tour guide. A good day.
I enjoyed the tour. Our guide was accommodating and knowledgable.
I enjoyed this skip the line experience. Some more specific commentary on places would have been more helpful. I was disappointed that we did not get to walk through Montmartre, as I thought this was included.
Thus tour was comprehensive and the guide was well organized.

Now playing view for an iPhone music player app. I've been quite unhappy with the design/functionality of the new Music app in iOS 6, so at some point I'll implement this as a replacement.
In this view, the idea is that the app will determine the 'average' color of the current album art, and then massage it a bit to make sure it fits within acceptable hue/brightness thresholds. Then that color will be used as the background color of the bottom part of the view, fading into the album art. This creates a seamless UI that adapts to the current album cover.
Playback is controlled primarily with gestures (as is the entire app)- swipe left and right for prev/next, single-tap to play/pause, double-tap to show the queue, drag the 'handle' at the top up/down to switch between the now playing/library views.
Stay tuned for more views.
