HTmanning, HTmanning, HTmanning. The estimated battery life is VERY relevant. I don't know where you've been living for the past 3 years but one thing I give Apple credit for is that the stated battery life / meter and the rate in which it goes down is actually quite accurate. I do agree with you, that in the wrong hands or not understood, this number can me irrelevant but I give most people credit for knowing how batteries work. After all battery saving tech has been on phones for years and people are used to understanding it more.
Everyone knows, if you do roughly the same things on the computer over say a 10 or 15 minute period and intend to do approximately the same things for the rest of the stated battery life then actually it's an awesome reflection of what to expect. Years ago, you would have been right but today, even the PC vendors / battery technology has caught up. It's the same with my mobile phone. It's close enough for me to have been relying on it for work
I actually fell for the trap early on in these LION problems because for 3 years as a MAC user I came to rely on the battery indicator in my traveling working life. Then, believing that perhaps you guys know better, actually would sit and work for sometimes literrally the actual hours the battery life would last (as it said it would hours before). So, as I said, give Apple and the battery technology and people some credit, used properly, it's a GOOD number. Of course, recaliberating a battery can effect battery life expectancy per charge, but it's consistent once done so.

Another thing you can do is take a look at CoconutBattery's indication of "Battery Power Usage" (the last item on its window). [You can download CoconutBattery for free at this official website: http://www.coconut-flavour.com/]
My experience is that batteries under Lion go away quickly because, somehow, this power usage is unusually high (this has been discussed in this thread before, somewhere around here). The point is: it should be at around 9 Watts while performing basic functions (that's a guess, an educated one). Mine, for instance, never goes under about 15Watts and it gets north of 25W depending on, say, just how many tabs are open on my browser (on 'good days' I get at most 4h battery life on my 15" MacBook Pro, with no keyboard light and brightness below half, and oh, it even has an SSD).
This is an important measurement because it has nothing to do with CPU usage (or it has little to do in these cases), sometimes my Mac reports 0% CPU usage and 'Battery Power Usage' fluctuates considerably.
Please keep reporting on how it behaves under the new release.
And thanks *a lot* for doing that (taking the plunge and coming back to tell the story!).

Franc_Iphone - The meter number is irrelevant as it relates to poor battery time with Lion. I've read so many messages in this thread from people who say their meter went up after a reset of some kind, logout, removal of auto login items, etc. My meter has gone up too, but what hasn't gone up is the time I can leave my mac on battery. I have two brand spanking new macs, clean install, nothing in the auto login, half brightness, and I use 1 Safari session to browse and can't get beyond 4 hours. Apple advertises 7 hours. The number on the meter is irrelevant in knowing whether or not this issue is solved. The only thing that matters is actual usage time.

Look at my first post on previous page (144):
"P.S. battery power usage 8.4-9.5 Watt, before update it was never lower than 11!"

HTManning. Fair point, I would say, after 2 or 3 reboots, the SMC resets are all cleared and it seems to settle back so I do that (Which is very quick on my SSD for me).

You are welcome) Try to update, anyway it is better than 10.7.2
2 hours of surfing Safari and Mail and still have 6:30 estimate time (73%). Battery power usage from 7.8 to 11. So it looks much better than before.

Some light in the tunnel . I have installed the patch 10.7.3 and the battery life looks encouraging 5-6 hours with watching video VLC , browsing , downloading and max brightness . The only thing i did is install the patch 10.7.3 and reboot - nothing else . As i write still have 1.31 hours left ( interestingly - battery meter is showing red even i still have 20% left but that's by the by)
Will watch it for few days but in general my 5p advise is to install the patch .

in response to Cylon-4B
I installed the update, and got an error! After that, Lion did not restart! It only stuck to that grey screen, and I had to recover from Time Machine!
I cant recommend this update, before Apple solves the problem. And I´m not the only one having this problem!
takashid Feb 2, 2012 6:42 AM
in response to mirkofromturku
Just installed the update about an hour ago. I used the combo update downloaded directly from Apple's site. Update installed without a hitch on my 2010 MBP. I ran repair disk permissions right after that. Can't say I notice anything different right now (positively or negatively).
Its almost fully charged however, so I am about to take it off power and work straight off of the battery for the rest of the day. Just to clarifly, I have been seeing the same battery shortage like *almost* everyone else here. Ill report back in a few hours if the update has made any changes. I am skeptical.
arky2007 Feb 2, 2012 7:29 AM
in response to takashid
This is my observation: I installed the new update yesterday. I haven't noticed any improvements, actually, while watching a youtube video using my firefox browser, the fan was loud and the computer got very hot. It seems that I can fry eggs on my new MBP. (Previosuly I had a beta version, and I think it was better).
takashid Feb 2, 2012 11:44 AM
in response to takashid
I have been working from 100% battery down until 90% battery. Running Chrome (no videos or flash) and mail with wifi. Screen only at 3 steps of brightness.
10% of battery has equated to 37 minutes of working.
Not sure if we can extrapulate this, but if we did, I should theoretically get 370 minutes of work, which is 6.16 hours.
Cocunut battery says I am using 10.0 watts and that my battery is at 93% of original capacity after 20 months of usage.
Ill continue to post back if this is useful to anyone on the fence about upgrading to 10.7.3
rmatullo Feb 2, 2012 12:11 PM
in response to mirkofromturku
The University I work for just put out a warning NOT to apply the new 10.7.3 update without a full time machine backup because it is full of glitches, missing icons, and - worst of all - boot errors which are effectively turning people's laptops into carefully machined aluminum doorstops.
Don't upgrade without without a full backup. Just to twist the knife: I never had windows ME or Vista effectively brick a computer.
Also, the note about SMC reset stands: it is a placebo for those of us fretting about battery life and will return to its former state as many of us have discovered.
takashid Feb 2, 2012 12:16 PM
in response to takashid
Now Im down to 80% and it has been 70 minutes.
Carrying this out should give me 350 minutes. 5.83 hours or 20 minutes less than my previous estimate at 90%
FWIW My computer estimate fluctuates between less than 5 hours and over 6 hours remaining. Not sure I trust that though.
takashid Feb 2, 2012 1:05 PM
in response to takashid
70% and not quite 110 minutes. I am on pace for an approximately 6hr battery life. Screen brightness is rather low, but overall I am pretty pleased. Its an hour lower than Apple advertising but my battery is 20 months old.
I should note that I have been using gfxcardstatus to force intel GPU only. I have it on the power source based setting.
Hope Apple still releases a better fix, but I have to say that 10.7.3 (if it installs correctly) does seem to be better for my 2010 MBP 15" than 10.7.2.
FWIW, I still wish I was on SL, but iCloud was too tempting at the time.

We liked everything about Rev. Hary and what he did for us. He was flexible and accommodating to our suggestions and just so helpful from start to finish.
— Marianna & Lenny Dunfie
Rev. Hary did our wedding this past Saturday and he was great! I felt like he understood exactly what we wanted from day one and all went well for our rehearsal and wedding. He puts his heart and soul into everything and took us through every detail and answered every question we had. I definitely recommend him to anyone who is in need of an officiant for their wedding. No doubt about it!
— April & Johnny Bedford
Everything went perfectly for our wedding. Totally stress free. We highly recommend Rev. Hary to all future brides and grooms!
— Dale Appleton
Rev. Hary was caring, on time, and very personable. He did a good job and he was affordable. There was nothing more we could have hoped for in an officiant.
— Kevin & Nicole Jenkins
The words that Rev. Hary used in his ceremony were touching and significant. Not a bunch of blah, blah, blah. He cost much less than any of the other officiants we had contacted. We were lucky to have gotten him.
— Linda & Bill Lawson
Rev. Hary was very accommodating to us. He helped to make sure everything went the way we wanted, and it did. He was excellent. Thanks again, Rev. Hary!
— Angelo & Maria Mazoli
Wonderful ceremony and reasonable fee. The minister is a real one, not an internet ordained pretender from some make believe cyber church. Rev. Hary was willing to come to our house or reception hall, but we got married in his quaint church. It was GREAT!
— Susan & Jack Young
I'm the third one in our family to use Rev. Hary. He's good at what he does and he is a very pleasant guy to be around and talk with. His fee is pretty cheap and easily fit into our wedding budget. I/we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of an officiant for their wedding.
— Robert Stanton
Rev. Hary was well prepared, patient, and we felt blessed to have him. He made us feel relaxed and at ease at both the rehearsal and wedding. No easy task!
— Alex & Tammy Wojokowski
We were pleased with our wedding and the service we got. My family raved about how nice it all was. Rev. Hary was good and his fee was very much less than others we had called.

Democrat, Republican matchups highlight Tuesday's 2nd Congressional District primary election
WASHINGTON — Some of the candidates seeking the eastern Oklahoma congressional seat have been in the race for almost a year, jumping in just weeks after Rep. Dan Boren announced he wouldn't run for a fifth term.
They have traveled the 26 counties, made hundreds of speeches, shook thousands of hands, spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and now look to the voters to narrow down the choices.
There are congressional primaries Tuesday in four of Oklahoma's five districts. In three, Republican incumbents are being challenged.
Six Republicans and three Democrats are vying for nominations in the 2nd District, which, as currently drawn, has never been represented by a Republican.
Boren's seat is expected to be a national target for Republicans hoping to hang on to their majority in the House and looking for a pickup in an area where Democrats bear little philosophical resemblance to their national party's leaders.
Turnout critical
Plumbing company owner Markwayne Mullin, a Republican, was the first to file a statement of candidacy with the Federal Election Commission — his came on July 1 — and he has spent the most on the race, nearly $600,000 through June 6.
And though a recent internal poll released by his campaign showed the political newcomer with the lead over the other five GOP hopefuls, the bloc of undecided voters was still the biggest.
With his large cash advantage, Mullin has hired a team of seasoned fundraisers, consultants and pollsters and has been able to keep his television commercials running in a district where candidates must buy time in Tulsa and at stations in Texas, Missouri and Arkansas to reach all of the voters.
State Rep. George Faught, a Muskogee Republican who has been endorsed by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and national conservative groups like the Family Research Council, boasted last week of a strong ground organization in a race where turnout will be crucial.
In 2010, with a Republican gubernatorial primary on the ballot, fewer than 25,000 GOP voters showed up to vote for six other Republican candidates vying for the 2nd District congressional seat.
That primary produced a runoff, and state Republican leaders are expecting another one this year.
The other Republican candidates are former state Rep. Wayne Pettigrew, of McAlester; former Tishomingo Mayor Dustin Rowe; Marine Corps veteran and homeland security expert Dakota Wood, of Claremore; and pastor Dwayne Thompson, of Fort Gibson.
The GOP candidates have avoided public attacks on each other; in their most recent ads, Faught and Mullin seem to be in general election mode already with their criticisms of President Barack Obama.
Democrats at war
The Democratic primary in the 2nd District turned negative last week when Rob Wallace and Wayne Herriman went public with their opposition research — dredged up old business records that both candidates said misrepresented the truth.
Herriman, a seed company owner from Muskogee, is campaigning as a fresh face and using much of his own money to tout the business experience he could take to Washington.
Wallace, a former district attorney and state prosecutor from Fort Gibson, is running on a vow to protect Medicare from Republican budget-cutters and Oklahoma water from out-of-state interests.
The third candidate in the race, Earl E. Everett, a retired teacher from Fort Gibson, has not run a campaign, but depending on the closeness of the race, could force a runoff on the Democratic side if he keeps Wallace or Herriman from getting just over 50 percent of the vote.
Sullivan's challenge
Incumbent Reps. Tom Cole, R-Moore; Frank Lucas, R-Cheyenne; and John Sullivan, R-Tulsa, all face primary challenges on Tuesday, though only Sullivan has an opponent who has mounted a serious campaign.
U.S. Navy Reserve pilot Jim Bridenstine, of Tulsa, has sought to portray Sullivan as ineffective and has accused him of "erratic and aggressive behavior."
Sullivan has aggressively attacked Bridenstine, and has collected tens of thousands of dollars from Washington-based interests in the past week that could overwhelm the newcomer's resources.
Cole is being challenged by Gary D. Caissie, of Norman; while Lucas' opponent is William Craig Stump, of Drumright.
Democratic newcomer Donna Bebo, of Frederick, is running against Bert Smith, of Moore, in the 4th District primary; Smith previously ran in the 5th District, which includes Oklahoma City.
Frankie Robbins, of Medford, who has run previously in the 3rd District, is facing Timothy Ray Murray, of Guthrie, in that district's Democratic primary on Tuesday.

It is a dystopian and satirical novel set in Oceania, where society is tyrannised by the Republican Party and its totalitarian ideology. The Oceanian province of Airstrip One is a world of perpetual war, omnipresent government surveillance, and public mind control, dictated by a political system euphemistically named Republican under the control of a privileged Inner Party(ALEC) elite that persecutes all individualism and independent thinking as thoughtcrimes Their tyranny is headed by Big Brother, the quasi-divine Party leader who enjoys an intense cult of personality, but who may not even exist. Big Brother and the Party justify their rule in the name of a supposed greater good. The protagonist of the novel, Winston Smith, is a member of the Outer Party who works for the Ministry of Truth (Minitrue), which is responsible for propaganda and historical revisionism. His job is to re-write past newspaper articles so that the historical record always supports the current party line.[3] Smith is a diligent and skillful worker

This invention relates to a document illumination system and more particularly to a pair of reflector elements placed on opposite sides of an optical slit so as to direct illumination towards an object point.
Prior art illumination system for line-by-line scanning of a document have provided a plurality of lamp and reflector combinations. The simplest arrangement consists of an elongated lamp located so as to direct the light emanating through an aperture onto a scan strip. The addition of reflectors either behind, or partially enveloping the lamp to increase illumination of the scanning area is also well known.
Various prior art systems have added further refinements such as introducing a second lamp/reflector combination to the other sides of a scan strip. A typical such system is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,844,653. Alternate versions omit the second lamp but maintain various reflector arrangements on the side of the exposure zone opposite the lamp, e.g. U.S. Pat. No. 3,982,116 and U.S. Pat. No. Re. 29,017.
There are many applications where it is most desirable to obtain a narrow intense illumination band at the illumination plane so as to obtain a narrow well defined exposure at the image plane. Typical of said systems are those wherein documents are imaged onto photosensor arrays or those wherein a linear lens array such as a gradient index SELFOC lens is utilized as the imaging means. Some of the above described illumination arrangements have been utilized in these systems but an optimum arrangement would include an apertured lamp on one side of the scan strip and a reflector on the opposite side of the exposure zone, the reflector configured and positioned relative to the illumination source so as to maximize illumination at the scan area of an object plane. Two low cost, efficient, illumination systems having these characteristics are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,118,119 and 4,190,355, both assigned to the same assignee as the present invention. With both of these systems, however, there still exists the further potential for increasing illumination efficiency by capturing an additional component of the light emanating from the illumination source aperture.
According to the present invention, an apertured light source is located adjacent an object plane to be scanned, a first reflector is located on the opposite side of the scan strip and a second reflector is placed on the same side of the exposure zone as the illumination source and between the source and the object plane. These reflectors effectively capture all of the solid angle of light subtended from the illumination source. In a first embodiment, the reflectors are of the facetted type and are arranged in a platenless continuous velocity transit (CVT) system. In a second embodiment, the reflectors are used in an arrangement wherein the document to be copied is supported on a platen and the two reflectors are modified to effectively extend into the cross-sectional area of the platen.
FIG. 1 is a schematic optical diagram of a scanning illumination system wherein a document is scanned in an object plane.
FIG. 2 is a magnified view of the two reflectors shown in FIG. 1 illustrating the effect of the two reflectors on the imaging cone.
FIG. 3 is a schematic optical diagram of a scanning illumination system wherein the document is placed on a platen.
FIG. 4 is a magnified view of the two reflectors shown in FIG. 3 illustrating the effective extension of the two reflector ends into the platen.
FIG. 1 illustrates a first embodiment of the invention wherein a novel illumination system, indicated generally as 2 illuminates a document 4, moving in an object plane in the indicated direction. This system is commonly referred to as a continuous velocity transport (CVT) system and the absence of a platen permits the close positioning of illumination source and reflectors to the document as described below. An image of each incrementally scanned line is reflected at mirror 6, and projected by lens 10 onto CCD photosensor array 12 located in an imaging plane. The illumination system 2 comprises a linear lamp 14 which can be a fluorescent lamp with a reflective coating 16 on the lamp envelope. The coating is omitted from a portion of the envelope so that a clear longitudinal aperture 18 of approximately 45� is formed. A pair of facetted reflectors 20, 22 are located on either side of exposure zone 24 and serve to optimally direct illumination from lamp 16 into narrow longitudinal exposure zone 24 in a manner discussed in greater detail below. It should be appreciated that elements 14, 20, 22 are shown in end view and that their lengths extend perpendicular to the plane of the page thereby incrementally illuminating lines of information on the document as it passes through the exposure zone.
In operation, document 4 is moved through exposure zone 24. Each incremental line of the document is successively illuminated by a narrow pencil of light generated by illumination system 2. As shown in more detail in FIG. 2, reflectors 20 and 22 each comprise a rigidly connected set of plane mirrors (facets) 20a, 20b, 20c, 22a, 22b, 22c. The reflectors 2 may be constructed as described in the aforementioned U.S. Pat. No. 4,190,355, whose contents are hereby incorporated by reference. Each facet 20a, 20b, 20c of reflector 20 is set at an angle and is of such a length that the entire aperture 18 of lamp 14 is visible from exposure strip 24. A similar procedure is followed for reflector 22. From FIG. 2, with the two reflectors in the indicated position, an observer at zone 24 would see multiple images filling the entire semicircle below the exposure slit except for the area of imaging cone 26, represented by angle θ. The light reflected from the illuminated strip is directed along optical path, the light bundles being contained within cone 26. Mirror 6 is positioned relative to exposure strip 24 so as to reflect a linear image of each scanned line into lens 10. This image is focused by lens 16 onto array 12. As known in the art, the photosensor elements comprising the array produce an electrical signal representative of the irradiance of the portion of the image incident thereon. These electrical signals, when combined, form an electrical representative of the scanned line. These signals can then be stored and/or transmitted to remote locations and utilized as desired.
The above described system is thus seen to maximize the illumination from the relatively low radiance fluorescent source. In the absence of any reflectors, the radiometric efficiency of the scanner would be extremely poor. If a first reflector 20 is added, the gain is increased by about 1.9x, the gain being defined as the ratio of the irradiance at the exposure slit produced by the lamp and reflector, to the irradiance at the exposure slit produced by a lamp only, of the same diameter, at the same distance from the exposure slit and at the lamps optimum aperture orientation angle and aperture size. With the addition of reflector 22, the gain increases to 2.6. Because of the symmetrical arrangement of the two reflectors, there is also a good light "balance" in the left/right input. This balance helps to minimize paste up shadows.
While the facetted reflectors shown in FIG. 1 may be preferred for some systems, other reflector configurations may be used for one or both reflectors. For example, either or both reflectors may have a curved surface. The reflectors would still be positioned relative to the aperture so that their surfaces capture the light escaping the light source aperture.
Referring now to FIG. 3, the present invention is shown modified for use in a system wherein document 4 is moved across the surface of a platen 40. As in the system shown in FIG. 1, a fluorescent lamp 42, in conjunction with facetted reflectors 44, 46, direct light towards exposure zone 48. Since the platen has a finite thickness, however, the reflectors are separated from the documents by the thickness of the platen, typically 1/4 to 1/2 inch. This arrangement, although acceptable for some systems, would result in somewhat less radiometric efficiency of the CCD array since some light from the lamp would be let through the areas of the platen above and to the sides of the reflector. However, and as shown in greater detail in FIG. 4, reflectors 44, 46 have been effectively extended by inserting additional reflective elements 44a, 46a into the body of the platen. These elements, in a preferred embodiment, form a trapezoidal cross-section ABCD and are so arranged that each point along the surface is totally internally reflecting light from lamp onto the exposure strip. Although in a preferred embodiment, the elements 44a, 46 a are flat, they can also be curved, as can portion BC of the platen. These curved embodiments add additional power to the configuration and increase efficiency even further. Also, for a simpler system, one of the elements 44a, 46a may be omitted thereby incurring some loss of efficiency. For some systems, the economical tradeoff may be acceptable.
The presence of a platen in the FIG. 3 embodiment imposes tighter constraints on the size of reflector 46 than its counterpart in the FIG. 1 arrangement. For certain applications, reflector 46 may be eliminated and reflector 46a relied upon to maximize illumination.
Although the embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 3 show images being projected onto a CCD array, other imaging surfaces may be used. For example, the reflected images may be projected onto a photoreceptor in either drum or belt form as is known in the art. Another exemplary application of the disclosed illumination system is in conjunction with the use of a linear lens such as a SELFOC lens array comprising a plurality of gradient index optical fibers. The operations of these lens arrays in a copier environment require an intense narrow band illumination of the document to be copied and the disclosed lamp/reflectors provide this type of illumination.
In conclusion, it may be seen that there has been disclosed an improved illumination system. The exemplary embodiment described herein is presently preferred, however, it is contemplated that further variations and modifications within the purview of those skilled in the art can be made herein. The following claims are intended to cover all such variations and modifications as fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.

When my son was born it was the happiest moment of my life. He was a little early, but healthy and BEAUTIFUL. I felt, the first moment I laid eyes on him, that my life was complete. He was (and still is)Āperfect!! I suspected something was a little different about him- mainly through the eyes, but at my two week check-up my Dr said everything was fine and all his "genetic test" came back fine. Little did I know, Down Syndrome was not a required test. So for the next 5, almost 6months, I thought everything was fine. Little Gavin (10.13.10) was meeting EVERY milestone! I was so happy- it was kind of bittersweet- Glad he was meeting these, but sad that he was growing entirely to fast. he was getting to be a big boy!!
One day, I brought Gavin in for a check up because he was not sucking his bottle well and that was not like him- he LOVES to eat. Gavin's Dr did an ear exam and discovered an ear infection where the pressure built up so much the ear drum burst :( I was devastated! I felt like I failed as a mother. The next day, our Doctor called and told us we needed to talk face to face. Well he told us there was a posibility of DS. All I could do was cry. I was lost. Confused. I thought this only happened to women who had babies late in life. I am 21, actually I had him at 20. I knew very little about Down Syndrome and knew nothing about other types of Down Syndrome. All I could do is ask "What did I do to deserve this?"
I did everything thing by the books. Never was a smoker- nor a big drinker, only on occasion before I got pregnant. I took pre-natal vitamins religiously (even though they made me ill). I worked and stayed active. I went to several doctor appointments for check ups. It was like I was obsessed with my pregnancy- it was no longer about Suzi, It was all about this new addition to my family. I dreampt of this PERFECT baby, perfect family! Mommy, daddy, and baby- no worries!
The test came back positive- but for Mosaic Down Syndrome. I researched it and found this wonderful, supportive, informative group! I want to thank each and everyone of you. The ones who have spoken directly to me, and the ones who have posted their success stories! I have heard one extreme to another from people around me! People show their true ignorance when it comes to something as scary as a genetic or any other problem with a child.I've heard " I'm so proud of you because most people would give a baby like that up for adoption!" I cannot fathom how someone can say something that AWFUL to a mother grieving over her childs diagnosis that will effect their lives forever. Everyone else's life goes on. We are the ones who have to fear the future and the unknown.
Where I am at today is a totally different place than the beginning. I could not look at Gavin without thinking of his diagnosis! When I ask myself now, "What did I do to deserve this?" it is meant in a different aspect! What did I do to deserve something so precious, MDS or not? Why did God find me worthy enough to be able to care and love a child slightly different from what I dreampt of? What is so special about me that Gavin just cannot seemed to get enough of? The love I see reflecting in his eyes is purer than the purest diamond. Sweeter than the sweetest fruit. Love that is 100% unconditional. It took a while to get to this point in my life- though it is still fresh, I get better step by step, and day by day! I am there for him EVERY step of the way. And he may need me for the rest of his life, but who says that is a bad thing? He will never understand how much I truly need him- is it wayyyy more than he needs me!
I know this was maybe a little too much, but I hope I can touch someone else's life as you all have mine! I needed to read something like this to get where I am today (: I look forward to reading more from all of you guys!
<3 Suzi

Fruit Farm Free
By Kevin Grandt
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
It has been my dream to have my own fruit farm ever since my parents took me apple picking so many years ago. Sadly, fate has not taken me down that path. I am still excited about fruit, however, and now I can share that passion with you! I have created the Fruit Farm game!
Fruit Farm is an exciting puzzle game in which you must think quickly to create groups of matching fruit. Pairs of different fruit fall into the play field, and if you run out of room to put them the game is over. By creating groups of matching fruit you can make room for more fruit.
* Four ways to play!
* Endless: The basic game. It's slow paced and relaxing; a good place to sharpen your skills before tackling the other, more difficult modes!
* Time Attack: Keep making matching groups of fruit to delay the timer from counting down to zero. If the timer reaches zero some random fruit will fall down without your control, and the timer will reset! You have to be on your toes because the timer will go faster as you match more and more fruit!
* 50 Fruit: The game starts about half full of random fruit. How fast can you match 50 fruit?
* 100 Fruit: A more difficult version of 50 Fruit, 100 Fruit starts almost completely full of fruit! Match 100 fruit as quickly as you can!
* Compete against your best scores! Game Center integration keeps track of your best scores for each mode!
* Share your scores with your friends via Heyzap!
* Beautiful hand-painted water color graphics that look great on iPad and Retina Display!
* Comprehensive instructions built right into the game!
* Interrupted by a phone call, or need to jot down a quick note? Don't worry, next time you play Fruit Farm you can pick up exactly where you left off!
What's New in Version 1.2
Heyzap check-in.

I love this game
It is similar to Tetris, but in a more natural and less hectic setting. A lot of fun, not one of those apps where they are only fun for 10 minutes.
Nice game for free
Time attack is my favorite. It starts out kinda slow but really picks up the pace pretty quickly!

ALTA - Matt Reimers rushed for 207 yards and two touchdowns, and Schaller-Crestland's defense held Alta to just 49 yards rushing in the game as it went on to post a 28-6 victory in the season finale Friday night.
Schaller-Crestland got on the scoreboard first when Reimers busted loose for a 38-yard TD run. Kelly Rydberg ran in the two-point conversion.
It stayed that way until the 8:40 mark of the second quarter when Rydberg scored from 6 yards out. The two-point conversion failed, making it 14-0 Wildcats.
Reimers, who had 17 carries, scored again in the third quarter on a 7-yard run to make it 22-0.
"We really battled ourselves the whole first half," Alta coach Kevin Hammer said. "We had too many penalties, and that put us in poor field position. They took advantage of it and scored two touchdowns."
"I think our defensive tackles did a fantastic job of staying low," Schaller-Crestland coach Dale Tokheim said. "Our linebackers read well and flowed to the ball hard. Our offensive line executed again and Matt Reimers had an outstanding game."
Alta scored on a 61-yard pass from Josh Droegmiller to halfback Jon Nielsen. Nielsen was held to 47 yards rushing.
Nate Wiese had 16 tackles for Alta, which finished 4-5 overall. Nielsen had 12 and Ryan Schultze 11.

"It's just a disappointing loss," coach Troy Greenlee stated after the game. "I was really proud of how our kids didn't give up."
The Tiger Cubs came out of halftime leading 33-31 and proceeded to execute their gameplan. Brennen Burks set up down low and began his domination of the second half. Burks scored 16 of his team-high 24 points in the second half, including two three-pointers.
Throughout the third quarter, Greencastle held the lead with scoring coming from Burks, Erick Burgeson, Drew Evens and Austin Miller.
Greencastle saw its lead fade as Owen Valley's Jared Maners hit a two to make the score, 42-40, in favor of the Patriots. Zac Remsburg connected on a three-pointer with three minutes to go in the third quarter to tie the game at 50-all. The Tiger Cubs' fate seemed foreshadowed as Michael Richardson drove to an empty basket and watched as the ball spun out of the hoop.
Remsburg proved to be king of the long ball, collecting four bombs and scoring 14 points on the night. The Tiger Cubs stayed close at the end of the third quarter as Miller scored on two inside shots and brought Greencastle within four points at 58-54.
The fourth quarter saw Owen Valley make a run that the Tiger Cubs were unable to rebound from.
The Patriots quickly ran their lead to 10 points on the strength of Maners, Andrew Mullins and Antonio Marshall. But as quickly as Owen Valley jumped out, Greencastle came roaring back.
Remsburg hit a three-pointer as Burks followed with at two to close the lead to six. Evens stole the inbounds pass and scored with 2:22 remaining on the clock. After a Patriot miss, Burgeson scored on a drive and Remsburg hit two free throws to bring the Tiger Cubs within one at 71-70 with 25 seconds remaining.
The Patriots Maners hit two free throws to ice the game, 73-70. Greencastle had two attempts to tie as the clock ticked away but both fell short and Owen Valley slid by 73-70.
Greencastle owned the first minutes of the game, jumping out to an 8-0 lead. The Patriots got within one twice but Greencastle answered the call. Michael Richardson and Remsburg hit back-to-back buckets and the Tiger Cubs held a 15-13 lead at the end of the first.
The teams spent most of the second quarter tied or with a slight lead. Owen Valley tied the game at 31 with 34 second remaining but Greencastle's Miller hit a shot at the buzzer to give the Tiger Cubs the lead at 33-31 at the half.
Greenlee focused on a single factor he felt was key to Greencastle's first-round loss.
"The difference was second-chance points," he said. "They're such a good offensive team, even if they do miss, you have to get the rebound."
Owen Valley will play West Vigo Friday at 6 p.m. Greencastle ended the year at 10-11.

We stayed here because I ran the myrtle beach half marathon. The location to the finish line and boardwalk were incredible! We hated to leave. The shuffle board and corn hole games were our favorites! Also, we stopped by the Starbucks at least once a day! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back again next... More

nice but pretty hard since strong enemies appear too earlier, it's better to start with easier sequence for players to adapt the gameplay. Overall I believe with addition of furthermore polishing will turn it to a great game, anyway it's quite hard to recognize the difference between own balls with enemy's bullets, please fix it. And the last thing, I see the game pretty lag while played for long period of time (and become worse at later), is that of Stencyl matter?
There is indeed a learning curve for learning starting techniques. On the flipside, if you can get off to an early start with getting powerups, it seems like you can last forever... the one aspect of development I still suck at is the balance issue. If you have ideas for making the bullets look different, please let me know; that was another issue I have struggled with. As for the lag, a lot of my coding was centered around making it as lag-less as possible, but unfortunately Stencyl (or at least my knowledge of Stencyl) is limited in that area :(
Jan. 25, 2012
That's why I feel very familiar with this kind of game, since I noticed both the graphic style and hte bullet patterns almost similar to Parsec47, then I checked about the author's link (it's Kenta Cho!)....... I wonder if he will remake ChoRenSha in flash version?

much like Tales series, well.... if only I know how to switch to other characters, and request for trade items among friends, and also request for every own character sprites.... I sometimes confused with the clones
In this game you can't switch to other characters, they're automatically controlled by the computer... but that's a really nice idea - I'll look up the Tales series you mentioned. I would have loved to have a unique face for every character but the game is already 7.5MB - would you wait for a 15MB download if I did that for a sequel? (genuine question, I've been told that most flash players won't but I'm not sure it's true!)
