Cake and Hi :)
I'll just take a min. to introduce myself for those of you who don't know me. I'm Linda, age 42 (it's just a number, really!) -- resident of Massachusetts, lover of Michigan, cats, agates, cooking (particularly Indian cuisine and culture too) and proud and lucky mom to Michael, 18 (almost 19) and Meg (15). I have a food blog at Out Of The Garden.
My kids each have their issues -- Michael has Asperger's (form of autism) and Meg has juvenile (insulin-dependent) diabetes. Rather than go on and on about that, I would rather say they have both found their comfort zone in terms of handling their challenges, and I am extremely proud of them. I think having a disability has made them both better people -- they have more insight into reality than many of the "normal" adults I know ;)
Now having said that, here's a little cross-post about my guilty non-cake years. Lovely to meet you all and thanks for having me!
Following in the footsteps of fabulous cake decorators Shilpa, Archana, Hema and more, I took the plunge into cake-decorating class. Baking was never my strong suit; when my kids were small it made me keenly aware of my Jewish heritage (read: a guilt complex extraordinaire!). Growing up, my little M 'n Ms didn't know the meaning of mik-and-cookies. Cookie was a monster on Sesame Street and milk was a healthy drink that went with breakfast. They suffered through store-bought cookies or cake for class parties, and for birthdays, well -- the few times I tried cakes from mixes, they were a disaster. After a while I did manage to make cupcakes turn out ok (but not like these!) -- those were always panicked affairs iced with store-bought frosting and little finesse. Forget about gooey chocolatey goodness in marshmallow-covered brownies, fancy colored decorations on numberless Christmas cookies, and all that jazz. Yes, my kids were deprived and I feel it to this day. Thank God for their grandparents, or they'd never have had a sweet tooth at all ;) A few weeks ago my colleague decided to join a cake decorating class and asked for my company -- I agreed to go along. I was so thrilled with the outcome of my first project, I thought I'd share it. My daughter nearly fell over when she saw the cake come out of *our* oven. When she learned I was going to a class to decorate it, she asked for her *face* on the cake!!! Well, I am no da Vinci, so instead, she got her name. Not a particularly creative design, but it was conveniently portion-controlled... and I did manage to make a Cookie Monster smile on the sides.
Meg loved this 'cause she's a drama queen -- she loves her name in lights, even on a cake. Wasn't I proud when she wanted to take a piece to school and show it off to her friends -- a kid of her age. That made me smile inside and out -- not at my cake, but at my daughter's great big heart :)
And speaking of great big hearts and names in lights -- don't miss our own dear Trupti's exciting news. Congrats, Trupti! :)

Hey Linda
Welcome to the Club !!! Its so good to see you here at last :)
Wow so you joined a baking class too. Thats great news. So what if the kids didn't have great cakes when they were little, they will have it now and remember for life time

Welcome to DMC Linda!
Looking forward to get tips and advice to deal with pre-teens and drama queens :)
Well, baking is not my cup of tea either. After my son was born (he is 9 now), I became allergic to eggs. So I usually stay away from baking any desserts. Couple of times I tried making eggless cakes which went straight to the garbage can. My problem is I can't even be in contact with eggs, it gives me rash and my eyes are all itchy and red.
Sorry, I got carried away... Enough about me. I just wanted to say Hi and welcome.

Linda, great to have you over here at the Momz Club. It was also nice knowing more about your family. I always imagine you with a smiling face and I am trying to make up your face from Megan's. Hugs to both you and the kids.

Sandeepa, thanks for the warm welcome and cake-encouragement! I used to be glad my kids didn't get many baked goods when they were little -- I thought it would be healthier. So even my guilt complex is a fickle thing ;)
Hi Saheli, and thank you for the warm welcome too :) That must be really difficult, an egg allergy. Are you allergic even to the processed 'whites only' you can get in the dairy section? I know you can make a cake without yolks... not sure how you substitute for the whole egg tho. For drama-queen teens, just ring me up anytime ;)
Hi ISG, it's good to see you over here too! If it's any help, people say Meg looks like me. Of course she is lovely (aren't they always, the kids!) and when I look in the mirror, I see a stray grey hair or two already :)
Hugs to you and yours, ISG :)

Death of 'Mr Scunthorpe United'
Posted: December 21, 2009|
Jack Brownsword.
THE man who holds the appearance record for Scunthorpe United has died at the age of 86.
Jack Brownsword was a one-club man, making a record 597 appearances for the Iron between 1950 and 1964.
He also scored 50 goals – 49 of them from the penalty spot, and was widely recognised in his time as one of the best uncapped full-backs in England.
After hanging up his boots, he became trainer for United and was eventually made an honorary vice-president of the club.
Known by many as 'Mr Scunthorpe United', Brownsword was a member of the Iron team that were crowned champions of the old Third Division North in 1958.
He went on to play for them during six golden seasons in the old second division.
He played alongside other star names such as Barrie Thomas, Jackie Marriott, Brian Godfrey and Peter Neale.
Earlier in the Third Division North days. he formed a long-serving full-back partnership with Jack Hubbard.
His last appearance for the Iron was in a 1-1 draw at home to Workington in a third division game in September1964.
Jack lived for most of his life in Burton-upon-Stather and was also a keen golfer in his younger days, being a member at Normanby Park.
Funeral arrangements have still to be announced.

Time for another outfit of the day post. Felt like dressing up a bit (ie: putting on a tie and pocket square), but also wanted to remain casual enough to blend into the city a bit.
Here's my solution:
Coat: Banana Republic | Sunglasses: Oliver Peoples | Pocket Square: John W. Nordstrom
Shirt: Brooks Brothers | Tie: Drake's | Cardigan: Black Fleece
Belt: Perry Ellis | Pants: Ian Velardi | Socks: Merona | Shoes: Paul Smith
So as many of you know, I'm a huge fan of Thom Browne's branding (the red, white, and blue, generally on grosgrain). That's exactly why I'm wearing this Black Fleece cardigan along with a relatively conservative outfit. I think a small, but noticeable pop of color can really put some spice into an otherwise "safe" getup, so this cardigan fit the bill for me. I'll certainly be doing a post about adding pops of color to an outfit shortly.
So until then…

Life on Mars Discovered? David Martines Mars Mystery Video
Mark Whysall+ | Jun 06, 2011 | Comments 1
A mystery has be un-mars'd [Mars version of unearthed?] courtesy of David Martines and his keen observance of an alien/anomaly/dunno know what object on Mars with the help of Google Mars.
The mysterious object can be located at 71 49'19.73″N 29 33'06.53″W using the Google software. If the real mystery to you is that Google has mapped Mars, then that one is easily solved at http://earth.google.com/mars/.
David Martines estimates that the object is 700 feet long. Whatever this might be, Bio Base Alpha, Space Trash, Alien Utopia, or Google glitch or prank, there's definitely something showing on Google Mars at the aforementioned coordinates. In a fun game of what do you see, at 3:18 of the video, do you spot anything odd as David zooms out?

By justin from USA on 2010-02-26 14:42:36Things I liked:the power ,accuracy,weight and cocking force.
Things I would have changed:maybe offer a wood stock of some sort but my plastic stock is holding up fine
What others should know:this gun easily dispatches anything from squirrels to raccoons. i have taken a 32 pound raccoon with this gun with 1 headshot. the plastic stock feels cheap but has held up well with 1000 rounds through it. if you want a cheap but crazy powerful breakbarrel air gun that is super accurate buy this gun you will not be dissapointed

By customer from USA on 2009-02-10 16:25:44Things I liked:it had pretty good power at first and the scope was VERY nice.
Things I would have changed:the plastic stock, the way it shoots with no consistancy at all
What others should know:my experience with this rifle was at first a pretty powerful gun which was what i was looking for but then came to find out it had little to no accuracy at all and the pellets were tumbling in flight and after about 150 shots it started losing power so as you can imagine i was not happy with this product and did send it back to pyramyd and decided to shell out the extra few dollars and get a Benjamin Discovery PCP gun (very good choice i love this gun) but maybe my rifle was just a dud all i know is if your looking a well built powerfull rifle you should probably look into PCP as after i've shot one i wont be buying anything but PCP in the future

A medical device company funded in part by Indiana University Health's venture capital arm CHV Capital has been acquired for $75 million. California-based MindFrame Inc. makes blood clot removal instruments and was recently purchased by Massachusetts-based Covidien (NYSE: COV).
August 13, 2012
News Release
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. � A medical device company of CHV Capital, Indiana University Health's venture capital arm, was recently acquired by a larger entity due in part to a network of Indiana-based partnerships and investments in the life sciences.
MindFrame Inc., a California-based company that specializes in developing medical devices designed to optimize rapid perfusion and clot removal in the treatment of patients suffering from ischemic stroke, was recently acquired for $75 million in cash by Covidien, a leading global provider of healthcare products and a recognized innovator in medical devices. The acquisition is expected to broaden Covidien�s product offerings for stroke treatments.
MindFrame's investor group included CHV Capital and SV Life Sciences, a global venture capital fund supported, in part, by Indiana investors through the BioCrossroads INext Fund � a $58 million venture capital fund of funds which includes investments from Eli Lilly and Company, the Indiana State Teachers Retirement Fund (TRF), Indiana University, Purdue University, University of Notre Dame and the Richard M. Fairbanks Foundation.
"While the financial outcome of this transaction is pleasing, it has been even more gratifying to connect such a broad set of local partners with a world class technology and team," said Kyle Salyers, managing director of CHV Capital and board advisor to MindFrame.
"Neuroscience is a strategic priority for IU Health and for our region, which is why we continue to invest in innovative and effective therapies designed to treat patients with serious neurological disorders. The acquisition of MindFrame is a great example of how strong local collaboration can connect to innovation from anywhere and create shared clinical, educational and economic value."
SV Life Sciences, headquartered in Boston, initially established local market connections through its relationship with the INext Fund, which is also a capital pool that invests in venture capital funds focused on the life sciences, thus encouraging and facilitating direct investment in Indiana life sciences opportunities. "Our relationship with CHV Capital and IU Health became an important element of creating value in the business and was a natural extension of our fund of fund relationship with BioCrossroads and INext," said David Milne, managing director, SV Life Sciences. "We are pleased to deliver a nice return to our Indiana investors and to have engaged Indiana talent and resources in the process."
In addition to local capital sources, students from Rose Hulman Institute of Technology, via Rose Hulman Ventures, assisted MindFrame with engineering improvements to the manufacturing of its core device which allows physicians to treat patients who develop blood clots in the vascular system of the brain. "Engaging Rose-Hulman students directly with CHV Capital and the leadership at MindFrame provided great educational and professional development opportunities, and it is now very gratifying to know that the student�s efforts have been impactful for the company�s commercial and clinical success,� said Mitch Landess, manager of client programs at Rose-Hulman Ventures.
Also, leaders from the Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (Indiana CTSI), based in Indianapolis, consulted with MindFrame on its clinical and regulatory strategy.
"MindFrame's technology provides material enhancements within a class of mechanical embolectomy solutions that allow for greater neurovascular access, an expanded treatment window and the prospect to significantly improve neurological outcomes for patients who suffer strokes," said Anantha Shekhar, MD, PhD, director of the Indiana CTSI and associate dean for translational research at Indiana University. "Upon U.S. approval we look forward to IU Health's nationally ranked neuroscience program being an early adopter of this therapy and growing future research partnerships with market leading companies like Covidien."
MindFrame's focus has always been to commercialize the best therapy for patients, according to its CEO, Ken Charhut. �Our Indiana relationships with CHV Capital, IU Health, Indiana CTSI and Rose Hulman Ventures only further enhanced our focus as a patient-centered company and helped shape our thinking about the intricacies of the continuum of care needed to serve these patients,� said Charhut.
Covidien is a medical equipment and supply company, incorporated in Dublin, Ireland, with corporate offices located in Mansfield, Massachusetts.

Vag Magazine Teaser 1 from Vag Magazine on Vimeo.
I spend a lot of time blogging complaints. Not enough women, too many but too insubstantial, why do they only talk to each other about men, etc., etc. This is a complaint commonly made about bloggers, and, hell, feminists, that they are too critical and don't ever seem to see any good in anything.
But today I've something positive for you. The other night I was watching the Colbert Report and a small, good thing happened. Colbert was interviewing Aaron Sorkin, who, if you've been living in media blackout for the last six weeks, has out a new movie about Facebook called The Social Network. The movie being essentially about a tech startup, not a form of human organization known for its devotion to vagina-ocracy, there aren't exactly strong female roles in it. This is not something I expect to be a common observation about the film, because at least as regards the gender of the main movers and shakers, the film is merely reporting the facts: they were men. So imagine my surprise when the one major issue Colbert stated about the movie was that its portrayal of women seemed flat. "The other ladies in the movie don't have as much to say because they're high or drunk or [beep]ing guys in the bathroom. Why are there no other women of any substance in the movie?" And then when Sorkin admits this is a fair question and terms the women "prizes," Colbert asks, "Are women at Harvard like that? I'm trying to figure out if I missed out on the college experience."

Officials at the State Department of Education are notifying officials in 11 cities and towns that they are in violation of state law setting minimum spending requirements for education and that they must increase their school appropriations for the current fiscal year."If they don't comply soon then we will have to figure out what the next step is," said Brian Mahoney, the longtime chief financial officer for the SDE.
In order to receive state education funding grants, the law requires school districts to spend at least as much each year than they did the previous year. For the first time a significant number of districts have submitted budget figures to the state that do not comply with the minimum spending requirement.
"This is unprecedented. This has never happened before," said Mahoney. He said in the nearly 30 years of the state imposing minimum spending or appropriations requirements for districts, fewer then 10 incidents have occurred of districts failing to meet the requirement.
This year 11 districts have adopted budgets that spend less than the required amount, according to SDE figures. They are Bristol, Columbia, Derby, East Windsor, Franklin, Hartford, Lisbon, Mansfield, Preston, Salem and Winchester.
"It must be the recession that's catching up with their budgets," said Allan B. Taylor, chairman of the State Board of Education.
Taylor and Mahoney said the state will be forced to take action against the non-complying districts if they don't increase their school budgets. Possible options include legal action or withholding state funding.
Mahoney has told districts that they have until Thursday to let the department know what their plans are. He said he expects there will be some districts that respond that they cannot resolve the issue locally and need the state to step in.
One of those districts is likely to be Winchester, where town and school officials are in a dispute over a $1.4 million gap in the education budget.
"I must report that I do not expect that the Town will provide funding at this required level," Superintendent Thomas M. Danehy wrote Mahoney last week. Danehy accused the board of selectmen are offering "fictitious savings" to justify not allocating more money for the schools.
Selectwoman Lisa Smith said the board if not going to budge on the issue.
"I just don't understand how giving them millions and millions of more dollars is going to solve the problems facing education," she said. "I am not willing to go back to the taxpayers and ask for more money... It's a very frustrating position we are in."

text: One of my resolutions was to learn my camera and take better pictures. I found this online "tutorial" so-to-speak that has a lesson each week for 12 weeks. This week, the first week, I explored the aperture. The "assignment" this week was to play around with the aperture settings and take three pictures of the same things using three different settings and look at the difference. At first, looking at them on the LCD screen, I didn't see much of a difference; now, I do. So, I did learn more about aperture than I thought. The higher the f/stop means more of the picture is in focus. I'm excited for the weeks to come!

KENDALLVILLE ŌĆö Columbia CityŌĆÖs girls track team won the East Noble Relays for the sixth year in a row on Saturday.
The Lady Eagles won the invitational by a close 15 points.

The team was led by Kalisha Goree, who was named the John Reed Relays MVP.
Goree won the long jump and 100-meter hurdles, and placed fourth in the high jump, behind teammate Carlee Hearld who won the event.
PONETO ŌĆö WhitkoŌĆÖs baseball team took two lopsided wins over Southern Wells Saturday.
The Wildcats won the first game 13-3, and the second 15-4.
In game one, Hunter Sroufe batted 3-for-3, scored four runs, including a home run, and had two RBIs.

COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö The Columbia City Lady Eagle softball team played host on Saturday to a very athletic Bishop Dwenger Lady Saints team on a day that boasted the best weather in weeks.
The Lady Eagles dropped both ends of a doubleheader, playing the first game close before falling 5-1, and cleared the bench for the second contest in a 10-0 loss.
In game one the Saints got on the scoreboard in the top of the first inning, as the second SaintsŌĆÖ batter, Amanda Miller was hit by Columbia City pitcher Krystin Van Houten.

Columbia CityŌĆÖs Tyler Green finished on par with 36 strokes. Fellow Eagle Spencer Klimek also finished under 40, with a 39. Green rebounded from a 41 the night before, a prediction of Head Coach Andrew ThompsonŌĆÖs that held true.

COLUMBIA CITY ŌĆö They survived.
More than once Columbia CityŌĆÖs Lady EaglesŌĆÖ softball team had a big inning against Churubusco, only to have the visitors respond. Columbia City emerged victorious though Friday with a 9-8 win.
The winning run came on a wild pitch. Hannah Schnorr of Columbia City was on third waiting and raced across the plate in the bottom of the sixth for the deciding score.
ŌĆ£I told Schnorr be ready, weŌĆÖve got to score,ŌĆØ said Columbia City Softball Head Coach Steve Cox.

It was a busy Friday evening at a local, casual-dining restaurant,about five minutes away from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Patrons were chatting while enjoying meals -- such as a pork chop platter with garlic mashed potatoes -- at Malone's Steak and Seafood restaurant. Malone's has been serving the airport and surrounding communities for about 30 years, said Harvey Glass, general manager of the restaurant. It is located at 1258 Virginia Ave., East Point. Glass said that every day, the restaurant serves employees of Atlanta's airport and various airlines. He said airport and airline employees get a 15 percent discount at Malone's if they show their ID badges. "Forty percent of our customers are airline people during lunch," said the general manager, who has been overseeing the restaurant for seven years. Glass added that Malone's Steak and Seafood restaurant serves mostly business travelers during dinner. The restaurant is open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m., to midnight; Saturdays from 11 a.m., to 1 a.m.; and Sundays from 11 a.m., to 11 p.m., he said. Tonya Cole, a patron who was dining with a friend, said she has lived in the area for 15 years and it was her first time at the restaurant. "We tried the steak and the service was great," she said with a smile. Peter Mango, of North Carolina, who came to metro Atlanta for a video game tournament, was eating dinner with friends. He said he and his friends decided to eat at Malone's Steak and Seafood restaurant because of its close proximity to the hotel where they were staying. "It's been great," said Mango of his experience. General Manager Glass said the restaurant offers American cuisine, though it also may satisfy appetites of those craving a Cajun meal. He said the restaurant is known for its pork chops, though it offers various platters, including shrimp and sausage jambalaya, and a 14- ounce ribeye steak with a choice of a side, such as a baked potato. The restaurant also offers various pastas and salads, as well as a full beverage bar, he said. Glass said the bar is currently featuring beer from Jailhouse Brewing Company, of Hampton. Glass said the two-floor restaurant seats a total of 325 people. The second floor includes a dining area, a bar and a patio that seats 50 patrons. The first floor includes several dining areas and a bar, he said. The restaurant's location has helped its longevity, Glass said. It is located near the world's busiest airport and surrounded various hotels, he explained. He said the restaurant's sales aren't what they used to be, but it has survived the troublesome economy. "The relationships with the community, the hotels, the great food quality and the great location — it is your 'Cheers' from this side of town," said Glass.

The official YouTube app was updated today and it was quite the update to say the least. Google has detailed this update on the official YouTube blog and shared an interesting statistic as well, apparently more than 25 percent of YouTube watching happens on a mobile device. This number should continue to increase as more and more people begin to go mobile.
Back to the update, the YouTube app has now been designed to look amazing on the iPad and iPhone 5. Furthermore, it includes enhanced AirPlay support, faster video playback and improved accessibility with VoiceOver.
If you remember correctly, the YouTube app was first released in September, after Apple introduced the iOS 6 firmware generation. Previous to the iOS 6 firmware generation, Apple included YouTube as one of its stock applications. With its licensing agreement over however, Apple decided to drop YouTube as a stock application and force Google to develop its own. Sure enough, Google took to the challenge and has produced a final product that is much better than the previous stock YouTube app in almost every way imaginable.
You can download the update YouTube app for iOS from the Apple App Store using on of the links below. Be sure to let us know what you think of this update in the comments section below when you have had a chance to try it out.

RICHMOND, Va. — The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is studying whether or not to put lights on the Huguenot Bridge after several users of the bridge raised questions about why there are no lights on the bridge.
VDOT Spokeswoman Lindsay LeGrand said the department is not required to put lights on the bridge, and the lack of lights is not a safety hazard.
Still, they opted to study the issue after receiving several questions asking "Why isn't there lighting on the bridge?"
Ellen Davenport's family lives in the neighborhood of the bridge, and when she returns home from college she frequently runs near the bridge.
She said the view of the Huguenot and the James make the workout bearable.
But, when the sun sets, Davenport admitted things can get a little dark on the bridge.
"I have gotten stuck up there when it's raining, and it's a little sketchy sometimes," Davenport said.
Davenport said some type of lighting on the bridge could help.
"I don't think there's any harm in adding light," Davenport said.
CBS 6 learned that is something VDOT is studying
Twenty-five thousand cars travel over the bridge each day, which means 175,000 cross this part of the James every week.
CBS 6 wanted to know if other bridges in the area have lighting.
We found the Wiley Bridge does as well as the Powhite Parkway Bridge.
People who live near the Huguenot, like Bryan Bostic, said it's a completely different type of bridge.
"This is a neighborhood, it's not an interstate, and we want to keep it that way," Bostic said, pointing out that the Powhite Parkway Bridge serves drivers on Interstate 95.
Bostic's home overlooks the bridge.
"It's a very private neighborhood," Bostic said.
He said when the new Huguenot bridge was built, several trees were torn down exposing his home to a lot of light, and he does not want more.
"Light pollution is something we took notice of," Bostic said.
Still, both Bostic and Davenport believe a compromise can be reached to keep everyone happy.
"We did speak to VDOT about ground level lighting," Bostic said.
"I am rarely opposed to things that make me more comfortable driving," Davenport said.
LeGrand said she expects the lighting study to be completed at the end of the month.

Video: The freaky deaky Chilean LG ad prank

To cleanse the palate, via Gizmodo. It's natural to be skeptical that the reactions here are legit, but check out the bearded guy at around 1:48. He seems pissed, genuinely. And rightly so.
Is this a popular genre of comedy in South America, by the way? Normally I wouldn't think twice about it, but after the Brazilian elevator pranks went viral online last year, I wonder. Personally, I think scaring people witless is something only the truly insane find entertaining. By which, of course, I mean the Japanese.

But while Sony's wand-based PlayStation Move and Microsoft's controller-free Kinect promise a more user-friendly control system than traditional gamepads, they may, both literally and figuratively, rub audiences and game makers alike the wrong way.
Launching Sept. 17, the PlayStation Move, a wand-like remote tipped with a glowing ball, offers strikingly accurate on-screen precision when mimicking actions such as swiping swords or swinging bats.
Debuting on Nov. 4, the Kinect does it one better, eliminating handheld components entirely, using a gesture-tracking 3D camera to track natural movements, effectively making your body the controller.
Each provides a surprisingly satisfying hands-on experience. Each will launch with an array of simple, casual amusements ranging from virtual pets whose fur you pretend to stroke to motion-powered mini-game collections and sports simulations.
Unfortunately, each will also run you roughly $300-$400 (the cost of the individual accessories plus a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 system) to enjoy, and the last I checked, there's nothing casual or nonchalant about that.
Likely to sell to existing PS3 and Xbox 360 owners more than newcomers, it's surprising that there isn't more traditional game software for these devices that's aimed at diehard enthusiasts.
Sony hopes to lead the charge with support for hardcore titles like military blaster SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy Seals, platform-hopper cum game creation toolkit LittleBigPlanet 2 and trigger-mashing gunfight Killzone 3.
For now, Microsoft is leaving the battle to third party publishers such as UbiSoft and Konami with psychedelic shooter Child of Eden and arcade snowboarding challenge Adrenalin Misfits, respectively.
But while novelty value, brand loyalty and the thrill of being an early adopter can carry sales of the gadgets for a time, it's hard to see the fit between current customers and the present software selection. Sales may quickly taper off after an initial holiday run as a result.
While these add-ons will potentially help expand each system's audience, without any killer apps or must-have game offerings shipping immediately, it's hard to see the incentive for fans to upgrade en masse.
Present uses for these technologies are primitive, merely hinting at their potential, and with no existing user base, there's little financial incentive for game makers to double down on it or push the envelope.
Even if they didn't have to be concerned with already supporting dozens of platforms from the iPad to social networks, or building bigger games more akin to services than products, developers also face several fundamental challenges when working with these units.
Presently, few game designers know just what feats such hardware is capable of. Fewer still know how to take best advantage of it, as creating games designed for play in a 3D space is a completely different art than that of designing for 2D systems.

The Children's TLC Groundhog Run, the agency's largest and longest annual fundraiser, was founded in 1982 by Van Cooper, a long-time volunteer and Board member. Since his death in 1991, a memorial trophy has been given in his name to the first place 10K team. A 5K event was added in 1998 and the first place team received a memorial trophy honoring Martha Steadman, volunteer, friend and former Board member of Children's TLC.
The Children's TLC Groundhog Run is believed to be one of the only 5K/10K race in the nation that is totally underground. With a consistent temperature of 65 to 68 degrees, the Hunt Midwest SubTropolis is the ideal venue for the 3,500 runners to compete in this annual winter event! The races are sanctioned by the Mid America Running Association. This year's run will be on Sunday, January 30, 2011.

Australia has created a new prize for Indonesian doctorate students studying in Australia, Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr announced on Wednesday during a visit to Jakarta.
Carr said the Hadi Soesastro Prize is named after a late Indonesian professor and will be awarded annually to two Australia Awards Scholarship recipients from Indonesia who are pursuing doctorate degrees in Australia.
"Professor Hadi Soesastro fostered warm relations between Australians and Indonesians," Carr said in an official statement from the Australian embassy in Jakarta.
He added that Hadi made major contributions in several fields including economics, Asia-Pacific cooperation and development in Indonesia and East Timor.
"Professor Soesastro was a founder of Indonesia's Center for Strategic and International Studies, which he led for over a decade as executive director," Carr said. "He had close personal, intellectual and policy connections with Australia and was an adjunct professor at the Australian National University which also awarded him an honorary doctorate."
Applicants will be required to submit a proposal on how they will use the prize to honor Soesastro's legacy.
An entitlement of up to Aus$25,000 will be awarded to Australia Awards Hadi Soesastro Prize scholars for further study, field work, conference attendance, research or community projects.
There are 831 Indonesian Australia Award scholars currently studying in Australia.

A consortium of UAE banks have closed a $175 million Islamic structured facility for SriLankan Airlines.
Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, Al Hilal Bank, Mashreq Al Islami, Noor Islamic Bank and United Bank acted as mandated lead arrangers and bookrunners of the four-year loan. Mashreq Al Islami acted as the co-ordinating bank.
The facility, which is Shariah compliant, was subscribed in US dollars and UAE dirhams.
The transaction marks SriLankan Airlines's debut in the international syndicated loan market.
Mashreq's head of international banking group John Iossifidis says: "Sri Lanka is a key strategic market for Mashreq and we are committed to working alongside our core relationship clients, to explore different forms of capital raising."

The Road
Cormac McCarthy's The Road is a rough ride. His prize-winning novel is set after an unspecified disaster leaves Planet Earth a big hunk of charcoal. The crazed survivors are left looking for meat—usually of the human variety. Across this blasted landscape, a man and his son head south, dodging cannibals and savoring simple pleasures like a found can of Coke. Where McCarthy took a dismal view of the future, the filmmakers choose to emphasize how their bond represents undying virtues in a dying planet. As the Man, Viggo Mortensen expertly displays humanity hidden beneath a tough shell. The Road may lack the crowd-pleasing stunts of post-apocalyptic fare like I Am Legend, but it's elemental celebration of what makes us good will stick with audiences a lot longer. A great soundtrack by Nick Cave, too.
Extras: Commentary from director John Hillcoat (The Proposition), deleted/extended scenes, making of featurette.
