The second largest church in Nuremberg with a lot of history. The Northern part of the old town has the Name of this church.
If you know anything about Coventry Cathedral and want to feel some progress in humanity, reconciliation and faith has been made in the world, visit this Gothic beacon.
A beautiful church with nice "bratwursthausel" in the surrounding squares. Some signs in german and english emotionally portray the churches history and there are some fascinating wooden angels inside the church.
I wandered in here to seek cool shelter during last week's heat wave. There is an excellent historic photo display of how the church was damaged during WW II, and its restoration process.
There were also photos of 1930's Nazi's presence & rally in the city, as Hitler felt the city's old architecture made it the "most German" of cities....
This church is worth a look, the architecture is amazing. I visited all of the churches and some of them had pictures of the restoration after World War II-incredible that they were able to save these.
The story of Sebald was shared with us by our walking tour guide. It's quite a tale! The church is massive and impressive, the oldest in the old town. Inside, the simple yet heart-wrenching exhibit of photos of the destruction of the church in 1945 and accompanying poem translated into several languages tells the emotion of the story.
In Nuremberg, they know how to do Gothic. In fact every church in Nuremberg is Gothis, with one exception. The 2 largest of which this is one, spent many years tryinv to outdo one another. Anything added on by one of them was immediately added on by the other. They are quite similar in appearance because of this intense rivalry....
Passing by this historical medieval monument, beautiful building of human architecture and art, one thought was up on my mind. How great is human skill to create, how huge is human urge to destroy, how wonderful is human ability to forgive and rebuild.
Visited while at Christmas market. Amazing church and history. Friendly people working but only speak German. Try and attend a service there
St. Sebaldus Church (Sebalduskirche) is one of the oldest churches in Nuremberg. This medieval church, severely damaged during World War II but since restored, is named for an 8th century hermit and missionary who is the patron saint of Nuremberg. This has been a Lutheran church since the Reformation.

Former deputy charged in cold case homicide
Nearly 15 years after family members discovered the lifeless body of their brother under a large oak tree on Gay Street, Tunica County Sheriff K.C. Hamp announced that a former law enforcement official has been implicated in his death.
At a press conference at the Tunica Museum on March 28, Hamp said Willie "Cat Daddy" Starks has been charged with the murder of James "JuMan" Carter of Tunica. Starks, the former chief deputy of the Tunica County Sheriff's Department, is currently serving a 30 year sentence in the federal prison system on unrelated drug charges. His bond in the Carter case has been set at $1 million. He has also been charged with obstruction of justice.

Apple discontinues iPhone Bluetooth Headset [u]
By Slash Lane
Monday, March 23, 2009, 06:00 am PT (09:00 am ET)
A couple of eagle-eyed readers drew our attention to the accessory's Apple Store product page that has listed the device as "Discontinued" since Saturday. Oddly, however, shoppers could still add the product to their shopping carts as of press time.
The single-button headset was first introduced in June 2007 alongside the original iPhone. It sold for $129 and was bundled with a Bluetooth Travel Cable and a Dual Dock that could charge both the iPhone and headset.
A year later, Apple dropped the price of the headset to $99 to coincide with the release of the iPhone 3G, but also stopped including Dual Dock, which was perminently discontinued to the dismay of some costomers.
The headset has drawn accolades for its easy setup and elegantly slim, lightweight design, but has also been criticized for its limited range, battery life and lack of voice dial controls.
Update: AppleInsider has received a couple of unconfirmed tips that suggest Apple may have recently recalled existing inventory of the iPhone Bluetooth Headset for undisclosed reasons.

introduces new bluetooth-related features.
Still, I'd wager 3.0 was called "major upgrade" in Mar, because there would be nothing bigger in Jun.
WWDC would then possibly be delayed (till Aug?) and would announce "2,1" h/w.
My first reaction is that they are paving the way for a new stereo bluetooth headset in light of the 3.0 announcement. But that doesn't necessarily make sense to only have one or the other. Maybe an updated model is on the way.
Maybe Apple realized people look like fools with devices in their ear walking around talking to themselves, trying to look important.
My first thought was that it just wasn't selling well enough. I prefer my Jawbone earpiece for quality and longevity. I just wish they had an in-ear phone, instead of the ear bud they use, though it's not nearly as uncomfortable as Apple's design.
After reading yours and ivan.rnn01's posts I wonder if they will release a new model with buttons so you can do voice dialing from the headset. This would certainly make me consider buying Apple's BT headset --assuming my current one was lost, stolen or broken-- if they were the only one to offer this feature.
There will most likely be a new iPhone release in June (not Aug), simply because that's when the first iPhone buyer's two-year contracts are up. These people (who chose not to upgrade to 3G last year), are going to need a newer iPhone than the 3G.
I suspect Apple no longer sees any point in selling a Bluetooth earpiece/mic. They don't run OS X or any variant, it's hard to truly differentiate it from all of the others, and they aren't in that business anyway.
Apple gave up selling their own printers long ago and I see Bluetooth devices as a similar situation.
I agree. I have spent a decent amount of time in Japan the last two years and NOT ONCE did I see a bluetooth headset for a keitai (cell phone). Texting / email is much more common on phones in Japan, but no matter the reason it is wonderful to see people without those incredibly annoying things stuck in their ears all day long. IMO these things are the height of hubris, unless they are used when driving.
Add this to the mix that the headset ROYALLY Sucked!!!! I went through eight replacements and non of them them could keep a connection longer than 5 feet away. I even had one break connection while the phone was in my hand. In every other category the headset was a freakin marvel but it would not stay connected. I have no sympathy that it failed miserably. They should have taken it off the shelves a lot sooner. Currently use the Jawbone 2.0 and it works great. Almost annoyingly so when I am in the bottom of my yard and my headset is upstairs in my office and my audio goes to my headset. Beat that Apple!
The original iPhone was sold without any contract requirement - of course if you were not already an AT&T customer then you likely got some sort of contract when you switched.
I recently replaced a failed Motorola bluetooth headset with a Plantronics 520 (or some such) for about $50. The Apple device did not appeal to me due to the design - I rarely if ever use the ear buds that came with either my iPod or my iPhone since they do not stay in my ears - keep falling out. I have BOSE noise canceling headphone for use with the iPod on airplanes - FM transmitter for iPod in one car - Aux port on radio in the other car for iPod with built in Bluetooth for iPhone in that car. Actually went without any bluetooth for a few months until I found the deal on the plantronics - it gets annoying when going from home office to car to other location and back again on a con call without some sort of headset/bluetooth.
As for "hubris" mentioned in one of the posts - I do not consider using a bluetooth earpiece to be a "look at me and how important I am" kind of thing - but something more along the lines of either "look at me I am tied to my work even when not at my desk - wish I had some free time to just enjoy life" or mostly just for safety reasons - much harder to perform necessary tasks such as operating a motor vehicle with on arm stuck to the side of your head if you do not have a headset. So it is a double edge sword type of deal - it is nice that I have the flexibility to not be tied to my desk all day - but then I have to be available when the customers call.
Time will tell. I have strong impression, they'd be given no more than 3G + OS 3.0 in Jun.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Saudi Arabia says its investigations have shown that members of a spy ring arrested last week were working for Iranian intelligence.
The official Saudi Press Agency quoted an Interior Ministry statement as saying Tuesday that material evidence and detainees' confessions prove that members of the group had received money from the Islamic Republic for information on vital locations in the kingdom.
The ministry said on March 19 that security authorities had arrested an 18-member spy ring, including an Iranian, a Lebanese and 16 Saudis.
Iran denied on Sunday any involvement in espionage in Saudi Arabia. The two countries have a hostile relationship and frequently trade accusations.

Madonna-Directed 'W.E.' Sets December Release Date
The Weinstein Co. film will open Dec. 9 in New York and Los Angeles before expanding to wide release in January.
The Weinstein Co. will release Madonna's W.E. — tracing the fabled romance between Wallis Simpson and King Edward VIII — on Dec. 9 in New York and Los Angeles.
The film will expand to additional markets in December, with a wide release planned for mid-January.
Marking Madonna's narrative feature debut (though she wrote and directed 2008's black comedy Filth and Wisdom), the movie hits theaters during the heart of awards season.
Starring Abbie Cornish, Andrea Riseborough, James D'Arcy and Oscar Isaac, the film tells the story of a young woman who becomes enthralled with the love affair between Wallis Simpson and the British monarch, who famously abdicated the throne for the woman he loved.
Their romance is in stark contrast to the woman's own unhappy marriage — and an example to follow.
"Madonna beautifully interweaves past and present in W.E. It's a very smart film, and a stunning feature directorial debut," TWC co-chair Harvey Weinstein said. "I'm incredibly excited about this movie and I wanted to give it a prominent release date."
Madonna is represented by CAA and managed by Untitled Entertainment.

BOSTON -- Celtics forward Kevin Garnett sought out Denver Nuggets coach George Karl following Boston's 105-89 triumph Wednesday night at the TD Garden to clarify his use of "cancerous" to describe Detroit Pistons forward Charlie Villanueva earlier this season.
After Boston's early November win in Detroit, Villanueva went on Twitter and accused Garnett of calling him a "cancer patient" during on-court trash talk. Garnett later released a statement saying he was merely calling Villanueva "cancerous to [his] team and the league."
In the aftermath, Karl, a cancer survivor after battling throat and neck cancer last spring, expressed disappointment in Garnett's action, telling the Denver Post: "If Kevin and I were close friends, I'd probably call him up and say, 'I don't think that's right.' But I also believe that competition makes us do things when we don't have our total mental morality in line."
On Wednesday, Garnett didn't give too many specifics about the exchange caught on ESPN's telecast.
"I just went over and, I know there's some speculation [about what Garnett said], and I'm not going to get into it, you all know what I'm talking about," said Garnett. "I went up to him as a man and what I said is that I had nothing personal toward him nor any other cancer patient that is out there struggling and dealing with life situations. I wanted to say that to him, man to man. I was going to do it before the game, when the [shot] clocks and stuff was messed up [delaying the opening tipoff], but I wanted to get the game out of the way, and then approach him."
The exchange was brief and Celtics coach Doc Rivers joined the duo.
"He just came over and we talked, man to man, I appreciated that," Karl said. "I thought it was a classy gesture."
Chris Forsberg covers the Celtics for ESPNBoston.com.

I foreclosed on my house last year and the bank sold it for more than we owed,but say we still owe everything?
Best Answer

Once the lender took title to property you get zero even if they can sell it for more than loan. It was their house at that point. You can bet they sold it after expenses for less than you owed. Their costs to sell the home were far in excess of $12,000. I think legally they can come after you for the differnece, but that is very unusual. They sure cannot come after you for your entire loan balance.

We had perfect credit before my husband lost his job, while I was pregnant. We had to move to a different state for a job and were forced to let the house go into foreclosure. We had to file for bankruptcy in order to keep from paying a "deficiency judgment". I can't imagine being forced to still pay off the loan! Good luck.

Your additional details section is all wrong. But that is not the case here. Maybe you think they sold it for $12K more than you owed, but as has already been pointed out here there are a LOT of expenses involved in processing a foreclosure. What exactly are they saying you owe? Not the amount of the full mortgage, I'm sure.
by HEATHER - 2 hours ago
There are 2 transactions here. 1. the bank foreclosed, which means they became the owner of the house. At this point, almost all the time there is going to be a loss for the bank. They would never take it back for more then you owe. Plus you have late payments, late fees and lawyer fees AND the amount of the loan. This is what you owe the bank. 2. Now the bank is the actual owner of the property. What ever they sell it for, profit or loss doesn't effect you. TALK WITH A LAWYER.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates generally to a liquid supply system utilizing a pump which is especially adapted for use in liquid chromatography applications because of its capability of maintaining a constant liquid pressure.
2. Description of the Prior Art In general, a pump being used for a liquid chromatography system preferably has no pulsation and is capable of maintaining a constant pressure therein. Recently, improvements in the separation columns and detectors of liquid chromatography systems remarkably increased the accuracy and capabilities of the overall systems and measurement of quite small amounts of samples are now possible, and because of such developments, a pump having greater stability has become an even more important factor in determining the success of such systems. The conventional cam type pump provides severe pulsation, because of the principle of its structure, and accordingly, it has been necessary to set a large volume accumulator in the path. Thus, even though space efficiency were disregarded to set the accumulator, a pressure fluctuation still cannot be prevented, when the repeated operation of a check valve is not reproducible. As another system, air-hydropumps have heretofore been employed for moving a piston in an air-cylinder utilizing air-pressure asa driving force. When the air-pressure of the air-cylinder is kept constant, a constant pressure of the liquid supply system is given. However, a severe pressure drop is caused each time the piston is returned. Accordingly, it is necessary to set valves for preventing backward flow in front and back of the separation column, and this has proven to be disadvantageously expensive.
The use of a double screw type pump in such applications has also been contemplated. In a detailed description, this involves two pumps for compressing a liquid at a constant speed, by rotating a screw for moving ,a liquid transferring piston by a pulse motor or a servo motor through gears, so that a supply and a suction of the liquid are alternately provided to prevent intervals therebetween. However, this system also requiresvarious techniques and labor for preventing inaccurate timing in the switching process. Thus, even though accurate conformity of the characteristics of the two pumps is provided and accurate simultaneous switching is possible, a pressure fluctuation still results, corresponding to a differential coefficient of a change in the room temperature, when a solvent having a high thermal expansion coefficient is used, as a simple constant speed motor is used.
Accordingly, it is quite difficult to prepare a liquid supply pump which imparts high and constant pressure. Automatic control of the rotary speed of an electric motor for rotating the driving screw by a signal of a pressure detector, when the double screw type pump is employed, has also been considered. However, it has been difficult to obtain a desirable pressure control through a feed-back signal being proportional to a pressure deviation from a predetermined pressure, because the pressure detector usually detects a pressure depending upon the bending of the liquid contact position so that a volume change cannot be prevented. Thus, when the liquid supply system employs a pressure detector wherein pressure is proportional to volume change, and a feed-back circuit for accelerating a piston in proportion to a deviationof the detected pr essure from the predetermined .pressure, thefollowing analytical results are given:
- r P a S wherein P represents the pressure, S represents the flow velocity of the liquid, V represents the volume of a pressure detector, a represents a constant depending upon a load in the system, and b represents a constant depending upon the sensitivity of the pressure detector.
wherein v represents the driving speed of the piston and A represents the cross-sectional area of the piston. When the Equations 1 and 2 are combined with Equation 3, the following equation is given:
When the predetermined pressure is Po, the following equation is given in the condition of the liquid transfer system:
dv/dt k (P0 P),
wherein k represents a constant depending upon the gain of the feedback circuit. The following equation is given by cancelling v from the Equations 4 and 5:
d P/dt +b/a dPldt+kbA (PP0)=0 (6) Accordingly, the following pressure is given when 1 0 and P 0.
P.= P0[l e' cos V 4ka bA b As is clear from the above analysis, the pressure P causes a damped oscillation at a deviation center of the predetermined pressure P0.
In a practical case, even though the sensitivity of the pressure detector is possibly'increased by employing a resistant wire strain gauge, it is difficult to obtain a speedy attenuation and to converge on the predetermined pressure in a practical experiment, because of a breathing motion of the rest of the system outside the pressure detector, the response speed of the electric motor, and of a thermal interaction out of the system.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of this invention to provide a system for supplying a liquid with a pump forcompulsorily converging a knocking of a piston action depending upon a pressure control circuit by automatically controlling the piston driving speed.
The foregoing and other objects of this invention have been attained by providing a system for supplying a liquid by a pump wherein the pressure in a cylinder of the pump structure is detected and the movement of the piston is controlled by an automatic control circuit having a differential amplifier through an electric motor and a feedback signal originating from a tachogenerator connected to the motor is fed back to the differential amplifier.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Various other objects, features and attendant advantages of the present invention will be more fully appreciated as the same becomes better understood from the following detailed description, when considered in connection with the accompanying Drawings, wherein like reference characters designate like or corresponding parts throughout the several views and in which:
FIG. 1 is a partially sectional front view of one embodiment of a novel pump constructed according to this invention;
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an automatic pressure control circuit according to the invention;
FIG. 3a is a graph showing the change in pressure when the output of a tacho-generator is not fed back, wherein the vertical axis designates a liquid supply pressure P and the horizontal axis designates a time t;
FIG. 3b is a graph showing the change in the output of the tacho-generator wherein the vertical axis is for an output level V and the horizontal axis is for a time FIG. 3c is a graph showing the change of pressure at the time of feed-back of the output of the tachogenerator wherein the vertical axis is for a liquid supply pressure P and the horizontal axis is for a time t; and
FIG. 4 is a schematic view of a liquid supply system according to this invention, wherein two pumps are connected to one diaphragm.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring now to the Drawing, and more particularly to FIG. 1, a piston 1 of a pump is reciprocably disposed in a cylinder 2, and a packing gland 3 for maintaining air-tightness is fitted within the cylinder 2 being secured therein by a screw nut 4. A diaphragm 5 having a liquid contacting portion 5a, which is elastically deformable by hydraulic pressure, is air-tightly secured to one end of the cylinder 2 through a suitable gasket 6. Check valves 7 and 8 are respectively placed in a suction or inlet duct 9 and a discharge duct 10 so as to control the supply and discharge of liquid into and out of the cylinder 2.
A d.c. electric motor 11 is directly connected with a reduction gear12 having a suitable reduction ratio and is interlocked with gears 13 and 14 for increasing the strength of the structure. A screw rod 15 is directly connected with the reduction gear 14 and one end of the screw rod is inserteclinto a hollow end of the piston l. A driving nut 16 is fixedly mounted on the piston l on the hollow end thereof and is reciprocable along a guide rod 17, which projects through an arm portion thereof to permit relative sliding motion of the driving nut therewith while preventing rotation of the driving nut, such sliding motion being attained through a threaded engagement of the driving nut 16 and the screw rod 15. Reciprocation of the piston l of course is dependent upon reciprocating motion of the nut 16 along the guide rod 17. Micro-switches l8 and 19 are respectively positioned on the guide rod 17 at both an initial point and an end point of the path of motion of the driving nut 16 and are connected to control the rotary direction of the screw rod 15 through the turning of the motor 11.
Thus, when the driving nut 16 contacts the microswitch 18, the motor 11 is driven so as to turn the screw rod 15 to move the driving nut 16 and the piston l fixed thereto in the direction indicated by arrow A. When the driven nut l6contacts the micro-switch 19, the motor is then driven so as to move the driving nut 16 and the piston l affixed thereto in the direction designated by arrow B.
The reference numeral 20 designates a base frame for the apparatus, and a plate 21 is provided for fitting the electric motor 11 and the reduction gear 12, to the base frame 20. A spacer 22 separates the plate 21 and the frame 20. A resistant wire type strain gauge 23 which converts a pressure change to a signal change is positioned on the side of the diaphragm 5 opposite the liquid contacting side 5a thereof. A tacho-generator 24 is directly connected to the electric motor 11 so as to generate a voltage proportional to the rotary speed of the motor 11.
A pressure detective circuit 25 for detecting deviation of the resistant wire type strain gauge 23 fitted to the diaphragm 5 is shown in FIG. 2 and will transmit a signal of electrical fluctuation corresponding to the pressure fluctuation, through a pre-amplifier 26 to an indicator 27. A differential amplifier 28 transmits the output of a reference voltage generator 29 and the output of the pressure detective circuit 25 being transmitted through the pre-amplifier 26. A synchronous rectifier 30 receives the output of the tacho-generator 24 and is connected to a first input 31a of another differential amplifier 31, which also receives the output of the differential amplifier 28 at a second input 31b. The reference numeral 32 designates a rotary speed control circuit of the motor 11, and a reference numeral 33 designates a load duct connected to the discharge duct 10, which corresponds to a separation column in a liquid chromatograph.
Now operation of the embodiment of the invention herein described will be illustrated.
When the pressure automatic control circuit in FIG. 2 is alerted from a standstill condition having hydraulic pressure of zero, the diaphragm 5 does not receive any deformation stress because the hydraulic pressure is zero. Accordingly, the resistant wire type strain gauge 23 is not receiving any strain, so that the output signal of the pressure detective circuit 25 is zero. Accordingly, the output of the pre-amplifier 26 is zero and the indicator 27 also reflects a zero reading.
When the output of the reference voltage generator 29 is zero, the output of the differential amplifier 28 is zero and the output of the differential amplifier 31 also is zero so that the electric motor 11 is not alerted by the rotary speed control circuit 32. When the reference voltage generator 29 is actuated to originate a certain value of output signal, the differential amplifier 28 originates a differential output depending upon the input to cause operation of the next differential amplifier 31.
Accordingly, the rotary speed control circuit 32 alerts the electric motor 11 so as to rotate the screw rod through the reduction gears l2, l3 and 14, move the piston l in the direction of arrow line A through the driving nut 16. At this time, the rotation of the electric motor 11 results in acceleration which is substantially in proportion to the output of the differential amplifier 31. When there is no feed-back signal from the synchronous rectifier 30, rotation of the electric motor 11, is not supplied to thedifferential the movement of the electric motor 11 to cause the piston 1 to move in the direction of the arrow A causes a fluctuation of pressure as shown in the equation 7 and in FIG. 3a.
In this embodiment of the invention, the feed-back signal from the tacho-generator 24 is supplied to the differential amplifier 31, and accordingly, the electric motor 11 is positively damped based on the increase of its rotary speed, whereby excess acceleration of the piston 1 caused by delay in the increase of the hydraulic pressure resulting from the breathing action of the diaphragm 5 and the rest of the liquid transfer system, and the oscillation mode, or hunting, of a constant pressure level can be easily caused to disappear, as shown in FIG. 30.
The hunting phenomenon is thus eliminated and a constant pressure is maintained. The time for reaching the pressure equilibrium is dependent upon the manner for providing the gains of the two feed-back circuits. However, a critical damping can be easily determined, and even though a leakage or a blockage occurs in the load duct 33, the check valves 7 and 8, the packing 3, and the like, it is possible to transfer the liquid under a constant pressure.
When the liquid transferring pump is applied to a liquid chromatography system, it is necessary to supply liquid for a long time. Accordingly, two of the same type pumps can be used, if desired, so that the suction and discharging steps are alternately repeated by each, as shown in H0. 4.
In this case, the micro-switches l8 and 19 are used not only for switching the circuit for positive and reverse rotation of the electric motor 11, but also for maintaining a constant pressure without mechanical adjustment of the stroke of the piston. The switches also serve to operate without fluctuation of the pressure at the time of switching, the respective pumps when a level difference is given to the output of the reference voltage generator 29 of the liquid transferring pump and the output level is alternately switched.
In the above embodiment, a d.c. electric motor is employed. However, a corresponding circuit may easily be designed by replacing it with a synchronous motor or a pulse motor. In order to form a compact size apparatus, a pressure detector may be placed on the cylinder and the tacho-generator may be directly connected to the motor. The fitting place is not limited, but can be changed to another suitable place.
In accordance with the invention, a liquid can be transferred at a constant pressure in stable condition and a predetermined pressure can be automatically maintained without causing a fluctuation of pressure in or out of the system. When the system is applied to liquid chromatography which requires a stable constant liquid transfer for a long period of time, therefore, the results being obtained can be remarkably improved.
Obviously many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is to be understood therefore that within the scope of the appended claims theinven tion may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described herein.

Win Champions League tickets with Heineken StarPlayer
Heineken has unleashed "a groundbreaking dual screen" iPhone and Facebook app - that lets you play a brilliant Champions League based football game live, whilst the action unfolds.
And to celebrate it is giving Pocket-lint readers the chance to join in - and possibly even win a couple of Champions League tickets.
To take part, simply visit http://apps.facebook.com/heinekenstarplayer/?l+pnoma6kqko and join the league called POCKET-LINT. The league code is pnoma6kqko.
You can also sign up from within the iOS app itself, which is available in the App Store now.
The first 24 readers to sign up will play to win tickets to any UK UEFA Champions League group stage match next season. (Spurs fans can choose to go and watch Arsenal or Chelsea if they don't want to travel too far).
The league began last week for the 1st leg of the El Clásico match but continues tonight (3 May) for the 2nd leg and will carry on for two more matches - the Manchester United semi-final 2nd-leg and the final on 28 May.
Don't worry if you didn't sign up last week, or haven't got time to watch all the other matches - the player with the highest score from one of the four possible matches (27 April, 3 May, 4 May, and 28 May) will take the prize, it's not an aggregate figure.
As for the app itself, it's great fun. Pocket-lint was invited along for a trial which took place during the Schalke versus Manchester United match and we have to admit that it all got very competitive.
Basically, you score points by predicting the outcomes of various events such as corners and free-kicks. You've also got eight goal predictions, whereby you'd score points if a goal is scored within 30 seconds (tip: the earlier you predict the more points you get - we only scored 200 out of a possible 2000 for tapping just as Ryan Giggs took his shot).
There's also some trivia questions thrown in for bonus points and some Who Wants to Be a Millionaire style lifelines.
It's all operated by a human (we imagine sat in a cold fridge at the Heineken factory), so it's spot on for time and you can adjust your app if your TV transmission is a little out.
Floris Cobelens, global head of digital at Heineken, said: "StarPlayer will really change the way in which football fans interact with the UEFA Champions League, creating a more social experience around watching and enjoying the matches.
"For Heineken to be able to bring the excitement and competition of these premium matches to the actual fingertips of the fans through the cutting edge 'dual screen' technology of Star Player really showcases our
commitment to providing extraordinary innovative and engaging experiences for fans."
