|Engineer, Inventor, Nature photographer
|Known for
Part of the Apple Lisa and the Apple Macintosh development teams; conceived, designed and implemented HyperCard, the first popular hypermedia system.His book, "Within the Stone," published in 2004.
Bill Atkinson (born 1951) is an American computer engineer and photographer. Atkinson worked at Apple Computer from 1978 to 1990.
Atkinson was the principal designer and developer of the GUI of the Apple Lisa and, later, one of the first thirty members of the original Apple Macintosh development team,[1] and was the creator of the ground-breaking MacPaint application, which fulfilled the vision of using the computer as a creative tool. He also designed and implemented QuickDraw, the fundamental toolbox that the Lisa and Macintosh used for graphics. QuickDraw's performance was essential for the success of the Macintosh's graphical user interface. He also was one of the main designers of the Lisa and Macintosh user interfaces. Atkinson also conceived, designed and implemented HyperCard, the first popular hypermedia system. HyperCard put the power of computer programming and database design into the hands of non-programmers. In 1994, Atkinson received the EFF Pioneer Award for his contributions.
He received his undergraduate degree from the University of California, San Diego, where Apple Macintosh developer Jef Raskin was one of his professors. Atkinson continued his studies as a graduate student in neurochemistry at the University of Washington, nearly getting a PhD.[2]
Around 1990, General Magic's founding, with Bill Atkinson as one of the three co-founders, met the following press in Byte magazine:
The obstacles to General Magic's success may appear daunting, but General Magic is not your typical start-up company. Its partners include some of the biggest players in the worlds of computing, communications, and consumer electronics, and it's loaded with top-notch engineers who have been given a clean slate to reinvent traditional approaches to ubiquitous worldwide communications.[3]
In 2007 Atkinson began working as an outside developer with Numenta, a startup working on computer intelligence. On his work there Atkinson said, "what Numenta is doing is more fundamentally important to society than the personal computer and the rise of the Internet."[4]
Currently, Atkinson has combined his passion for computer programming with his love of nature photography to create art images. He takes close-up photographs of stones that have been cut and polished. His works are highly regarded for their resemblance of miniature landscapes which are hidden within the stones. Atkinson's book "Within the Stone" features a collection of his close-up photographs and was published in 2004. The highly intricate and detailed images he creates are made possible by the accuracy and creative control of the digital printing process that he helped create.
Some of Atkinson's noteworthy contributions to the field of computing include:
- Macintosh QuickDraw and Lisa LisaGraf
- Atkinson independently discovered the Midpoint circle algorithm for fast drawing of circles by using the sum of consecutive odd numbers. "[5]
- Marching ants
- The double-click
- Menu bar
- The Selection lasso
- FatBits
- MacPaint
- HyperCard
- Atkinson dithering
- Bill Atkinson PhotoCard
Atkinson now works as a nature photographer. Actor Nelson Franklin portrayed him in the 2013 film, Jobs.

Fees and funding
Information regarding tuition fees is available from the Student Services Centre. If you are unsure which tuition fee you would need to pay please consult the guidance on Home/EU and International Fees and a Tuition Fee Assessment Form is also available if required.
If you need specific assistance concerning the tuition fee due for the course or programme that you intend to apply for, please contact the Student Services Centre on +44(0) 161 275 5000 and speak to the Fees Team directly.
The funding support available for postgraduate studies depends on several factors, including country of normal residence and chosen degree. Some of the principal sources of funding are explained below, along with links to other information sources.
In addition, PhD students may have the opportunity to help in teaching undergraduate examples classes, for which they are paid.
Postgraduate funding
Postgraduate Loan Scheme- UK and EU students
Postgraduate loans (PGL) will be available to eligible applicants starting taught and research master's courses in September 2016. If you're thinking of coming to Manchester this year to begin your postgraduate study, you could qualify for a loan of up to £10,000 from the UK government.
For further information about the postgraduate loan, including eligibility, how to apply and details about repayment, please see the main university website. http://www.manchester.ac.uk/study/masters/funding/uk-eu-student-advice/postgraduate-loans-pgl/
All projects listed on the PhD projects page are eligible for funding via scholarships from the School of Mathematics and/or the University of Manchester. These scholarships are awarded competitively amongst the eligible applicants by School or University postgraduate funding committees.
Members of staff regularly apply for research grants, and may therefore be able to offer funding for specific projects without requiring approval from committees. Such projects are listed on a separate page.
Other sources of funding:
President's Doctoral Scholar Awards 2016
We have launched a further £2.5m investment in PhD training as part of of the President's Doctoral Scholar Awards (PDS Awards). These prestigious awards are open to all nationalities and research areas.
Within the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, PDS Award funding will be allocated to our most outstanding applicants seeking PhD training opportunities starting from September/October 2016. The Faculty aims to award at least 40 scholarships as part of the 2016 PhD recruitment round, which may include a number of collaborating schemes such as:
- 2016 Faculty PhD Studentships (also called Dean's award)
- BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnership Awards
- EPSRC Doctoral Training Awards
- Alumni 'Research Impact' Studentships
For further information please see the EPS faculty website.
UK PhD students
The arrangements for supporting postgraduate study are completely different from those for undergraduates. Typically, finance for grants comes from the Government, via the Engineering and Physical Science Research Council (EPSRC) or via one of the other Research Councils. These grants are called studentships and are not means tested. Each research council studentship covers all course fees and provides a stipend for maintenance of £14,057 per annum (2015/16 figures). Studentships are initially awarded for three and a half years, subject to satisfactory progress.
The financing of EPSRC doctoral training studentships is now administered by the Schools. In order to be awarded such a studentship an applicant will typically need to have a first class honours degree or possibly a good upper second. However applicants are advised to apply early because the School has certain additional funds available which make it possible to make definite offers to strong candidates in some cases prior to July. It is not necessary to make a separate application for these studentships. All UK students who apply for admission to a PhD programme in the School will automatically be considered for such funding. Applicants awarded EPSRC funds are required by EPSRC to satisfy certain formal UK/EU residence criteria.
In addition to the above a few other special studentships are available, usually tied to a particular research project and these are advertised on a separate page. We also have a limited number of School Scholarships available to UK/EU students which cover all course fees and will provide a stipend for maintenance of £14,057 per annum (2015/16 figures). These scholarships are initially awarded for three and a half years, subject to satisfactory progress.
Students who are not offered EPSRC or School funding but who still wish to study here may choose to support themselves. Many students choose to do this and support may be available from a variety of sources, for example by taking out a career development loan.
Alternative funding sources are also available. The University recently renewed its subscription to The Alternative Guide to PG Funding to obtain the 2015-2016 publication. This published guide and online resource provides a comprehensive overview of how to find and apply to alternative sources of funding, particularly charities, that make awards to current and prospective postgraduate students.
EU PhD students
Students who are normally resident in the EU but not in the UK are eligible for EPSRC studentships as above (both PhD and MSc), but the awards in such cases at present only cover the course fees, not maintenance stipends, except where such a student has been residing in the UK for the previous 3 years. Application can be made simply by indicating EPSRC as a potential source of funding on your application for admission to the programme. For exceptionally strong PhD applicants the School may additionally offer a maintenance stipend.
We also have a number of School Scholarships available to UK/EU students which cover all course fees and will provide a stipend for maintenance of £14,057 per annum. These scholarships are initially awarded for three and a half years, subject to satisfactory progress.
International PhD students
We have a number of Overseas School Scholarship Awards. These awards normally constitute the tuition fees and are awarded competitively. These scholarships are initially awarded for three years, subject to satisfactory progress. Please indicate on your application form if you wish to be considered for this funding.
MSc funding
We will be offering up to 10 scholarships of £1500 across our MSc courses for the top students in the 2016/17 academic year
Students who have a 1st class degree from Manchester University will receive a 10% fee discount.
Students on Pure Maths or Applied Maths MSc programmes - those who graduated from Manchester University will receive a further £2000 bursary.
Students from Mexico, Brazil and Chile may be able to apply for funding via CONACyT. Please contact us for further information.
Postgraduate Loans
Postgraduate Loans are also available for UK and EU students depending on certain eligibility criteria. Non means-tested loans of up to a maximum of £10,000 a year will be available to taught and research master's students. Further information is available at Student Finance.
Applications are now open: https://www.gov.uk/postgraduate-loan/overview
MSc Applied Mathematics Funding
We have a number of industrial bursaries to support students worth £3,000. This will also allow the student to work on a project of interest to the industrial sponsor. Successful applicants can apply for one of these bursaries after they have joined the programme in September.
In addition, annually we award two prizes: the NAG prize in numerical analysis and the Thales Underwater Systems prize in applied mathematics (each worth £750) to the student achieving the best performance in the numerical analysis modules and physical applied mathematics modules respectively.

About This Book
Emily Dickinson is one of America's most famous poets. The "Belle of Amherst" produced her famous poems in the seclusion of her home, then tied them in bundles with twine and left them under her bed when she died, all unpublished. Dickinson's best-loved masterpieces, including "I'm Nobody. Who Are You?" and "I Started Early, Took My Dog," are all collected in this gorgeously illustrated book. A four-page introduction helps explain Dickinson's eccentric lifestyle and her creative process, and beautiful watercolor illustrations enhance over 35 of her finest poems.
"Bolin's four-page introduction describes and explains Emily Dickinson's odd lifestyle and creative productivity...prettily colored watercolors." — School Library Journal.

MIPS Technologies' Board of Directors Determines CEVA's Acquisition Proposal is Superior to Acquisition Agreement with Imagination
SUNNYVALE, Calif., December 12, 2012 - MIPS Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: MIPS), a leading provider of industry-standard processor architectures and cores for home entertainment, networking, mobile and embedded applications, today announced that the MIPS Board of Directors has unanimously determined that a new proposal from CEVA, Inc. (Nasdaq: CEVA) to acquire the Company (the "CEVA Proposal"), constitutes a "Superior Proposal" to the merger agreement with Imagination Technologies Group plc., originally announced on November 5, 2012, including all amendments thereto (the "Merger Agreement").
CEVA proposes to acquire for $90 million (U.S.) in cash all of the outstanding MIPS shares, plus the breakup fee for the Imagination Merger Agreement, following the consummation of the previously announced proposed patent sale transaction with Bridge Crossing, LLC and proposed recapitalization. The CEVA Proposal has been unanimously approved by CEVA's Board of Directors.
MIPS has notified Imagination Technologies that the MIPS Board of Directors intends to effect an adverse recommendation change or terminate the Merger Agreement, but is prepared to continue negotiations if Imagination chooses to adjust the terms of the Merger Agreement. MIPS is obliged to negotiate with Imagination in good faith until the end of the business day on December 14, 2012 to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, such that the CEVA Proposal no longer constitutes a "Superior Proposal."
There is no assurance that the transactions proposed with either CEVA or Imagination Technologies will be completed.
J.P. Morgan is acting as exclusive financial advisor to MIPS and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP is acting as legal advisor.

Let A and B be two non-defective matrices since both the matrices are non-defective and are of order p so there are p linearly independent eigenvectors of both.
So, and where and contains eigenvalues of A and B respectively as the diagonal entries.
Let us suppose A is similar to B. Then, is similar to
Thus, is similar to , which are both diagonal matrices.
Hence, A and B have the same set of eigenvalues and thus the same characteristic
Conversely, let A and B have the same characteristic polynomial.
This implies A and B have the same set of eigenvalues.
Now, A is similar to and is similar to B thus by transitivity A is similar to B.

Keselowski helps Penske check off goals
Alan Cavanna talks with Brad Keselowski in Victory Lane after Keselowski claims his seventh NASCAR Nationwide Series victory of the season.
edward: Anyone remember Bill Clinton, the draft dodger, the guy that went to Russia to study Communism for a year, the ex-president that was impeached and disbarred for lying under oath, the president that could have prevented 9/11 if he'd have taken Osama prisoner when it was offered, the guy along with his wife, stole hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of White House furniture, art work, dishes, silverware when then left, the president that had sex with an intern in the oval office. Do you really want this man back representing us, the American people, again in the White House? I surely don't.

GCC Faster with Automatic Parallelization
The upcoming GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) version 4.4 will combine the existing Graphite loop optimization with autopar automatic parallelization support.
Soon-to-be-released GCC 4.4 will include the Graphite framework that should optimize high-level loops in multi-core systems, even though it has required specific compiler configuration.
IBM's Razya Ladelsky has since proposed plans in GCC mail for automating this optimization. The Graphite framework will integrate with autopar, the automatic parallelization code generator, so that upcoming versions of GCC will identify next to simple loops also more complex structures for better performance on multi-core systems.

Dallas ISD Audit Says District Ignored Hiring Rules; District Says, Hey, That Audit's Private!
Plotting a new course for Dallas ISD was never going to be a quick or easy thing. It's a huge bureaucracy and one that's laden with problems, some that are common to all large, diverse urban school districts, some that are DISD-specific, a legacy of administrations passed. So Superintendent MIke MIles deserved -- and still deserves -- some slack. His cabinet-level salaries have raised eyebrows, and he got off on a shaky foot with teachers, but if his decisions ultimately lead to an improvement in student performance, as he claims, then those are just growing pains.
Still, you know the administration has stepped in it big time when DISD sends out a late-night press release promising a full response to an internal audit and taking pains to point out that the audit really wasn't supposed to be released quite yet.
The press release became clearer when the Morning News published this story last night, which breaks down the audit report.
Some of the findings are picayune. Certain high-level positions were never publicly posted in violation of district procedures, and 14 of 18 employees did not follow the district's clock-in procedures. What gives greater cause for concern is the apparent disregard with which "senior management" -- the audit, per the News, does not identify who this might be -- treats established financial rules.

Two employees weren't offered moving expenses but were given a combined $8,131 anyways. Others were reimbursed for house-hunting trips, temporary lodging after the date of hire, and a questionable car rental. One $4,082 invoice for moving expenses was apparently fraudulent.
The district's main defense at this point is that the release of the audit was premature. Trustee Eric Cowan, who chairs the board's audit committee, said in the press release that it's a draft and that its release now "violates standard audit procedures."
"A cursory review indicates that there were no serious infractions," Miles is quoted in the release as saying. "If any errors were made during the process of hiring senior staff during the summer, I take full responsibility as they were made out of a sense of urgency to get ready for the school year."
That may be so, but basic financial controls may get in the way of swift, decisive action, but they are there for a reason. (Insert reference to disgraced former superintendent Yvonne Gonzalez here.) And it's not as if Miles didn't know the rules. According to the audit, he was reminded of them frequently by district staff and, according to the News, by former chief of staff Alan King.

Saul Landau - reporter, author of 14 books, filmmaker (45 of them), poet, college professor, and determined foe of U.S. assaults on Cuba - died Sept. 9 in Alameda, Calif., at the age of 77.
Landau served as senior fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies in Washington. At one time or another, he taught at California Polytechnic University in Pomona, the University of California-Santa Cruz, and American University in Washington. But his main vocation was that of agitator and political educator.
That bent emerged in Madison, Wis., where, as a student, Landau organized a "Joe Must Go" group aimed at the red-baiting Wisconsin senator, Joseph McCarthy. Later, Landau was a researcher for anti-imperialist sociologist C. Wright Mills and helped found Ramparts and Mother Jones magazines in San Francisco. He was a public television reporter there and also joined a mime troupe.
The breadth of Saul Landau's interests shows in themes he pursued in books and especially films. Often in collaboration with others, he wrote about "The New Radicals" (1966), "National Security and U.S. Foreign Policy" (1988), guerrilla insurgencies in Central America (1993), George W. Bush's "Preemptive Empire (2003), and U.S. culture ("Bush and the Botox World" - 2007).
Landau's documentary films explored Syria (2004), Iraq (2002), the U.S.-Mexican border (1999), Zapatistas in Chiapas, Mexico (1966), Iraq (1999), Nicaragua (1983), Beirut, Lebanon (1982), Jamaican President Michael Manley in 1976 and 1980 - and much more. Landau's highly regarded film "Paul Jacobs and the Nuclear Gang" (1980) documented the cover-up of terrible health effects from U.S. atomic bomb testing in the 1950s.
Notably, Landau produced films covering the rise of Chilean President Salvador Allende, later overthrown in the U.S.-assisted military coup in 1973. Orlando Letelier, foreign minister in the Allende government, was one of thousands who ended up being tortured and incarcerated. Landau helped spearhead a worldwide campaign for his release. Yet Chilean agents killed Letelier in 1976 in Washington. Landau and co-author John Dinges' book on the case, "Assassination on Embassy Row," alleged FBI involvement. Declassified U.S. intelligence material subsequently released by Washington's National Security Archives provided confirmation.
Ultimately, Saul Landau's signal contribution may have been that he told the truth about Cuba and 50 years of U.S. siege. He made six Cuba-related films. The most remarkable were "Fidel," a report of Landau's week-long jeep trip across the island with the Cuban leader in 1968, and his 2012 film "Will Real Terrorist Please Stand Up." There, Landau documented the falsehoods and violence marking the notorious anti-Cuban terror campaign emanating from the United States. He showed how the Cubans Gerardo Hernandez, Ramon Labañino, Antonio Guerrero, René Gonzalez, and Fernando Gonzalez came to Florida to defend against the terror and why four of them remain in U.S. prisons after 15 years. Through that film and in other ways Saul Landau contributed mightily to the cause of the Cuban Five.
During the last three years of Saul Landau's life, he and actor Danny Glover visited and became friends with prisoner Gerardo Hernandez, who is serving two life terms. Landau issued down-to-earth, intimate reports after each visit. They circulated widely.
A month before Landau's expected death, Hernandez wrote him: "It is just a journey, Saul, the other is not true ... How could it be true, with so many people who admire you and love you? A trip where? ...You'll be here whenever Danny visits me, and in Cuba when the Five are reunited." In August, Saul Landau received Cuba's Medal of Friendship, issued by the Cuban Council of State.

Dry up, Amarillo
We feel like we're beating a dead horse here with what seems like a daily warning to Amarillo residents about water use.
However, the numbers don't lie — there is a reason for concern.
As of May 9, Amarillo had not had a day this month without residents exceeding the daily water usage goal — and the alarming part is it is not even close.
In the first nine days of May, Amarillo went past 70 million gallons in daily water use six times, including more than
80 million gallons May 6.
We are still more than a month away from the official start of summer, and Amarillo residents are using water in what can only be described as distressing fashion. We are concerned with Amarillo's water use and fear what might happen when the dog days of summer kick in — because let's face it, we haven't felt the heat yet, but it is coming.
Is mandatory water rationing coming? Mayor Paul Harpole has said more than once this will not be necessary, and voluntary water restrictions have worked in the past. If needed, we hope voluntary water restrictions will work, because residents have shown little sign so far of getting the message.
Charles in charge
Syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer nailed it as far as how to conduct a congressional hearing on Benghazi (Krauthammer: How to do the Benghazi hearings right, May 9, amarillo.com).
Those who do not consider the deaths of multiple Americans — and how it happened — something for Congress (or more specifically, the U.S. House of Representatives) to investigate might disagree with the need for a hearing, but Krauthammer laid out how the hearing should be conducted.
"He (U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy) needs to keep the hearings clean and strictly fact-oriented. Questions only, no speechifying. Every sentence by every GOP committee member must end with a question mark. Should any committee Republican instead make a statement ending in a period, the chairman should immediately, by button, deliver an electric shock through the violator's seat," Krauthammer wrote.
Oh, if only electric shocks could be administered in Congress.
Republicans have the opportunity to show they are motivated by a search for the truth and responsibility, and we suggest they follow Krauthammer's lead.
Give Monica a break
For some reason, Monica Lewinsky is back in the news.
The woman partly responsible for the near downfall of President Clinton (he was impeached) is back for a few more minutes of fame (Lewinsky has had far more than her 15-minute share). She recently penned an essay for a magazine, which had her trending on Twitter and back in the public spotlight.
Speaking of essays/articles, we tend to agree with Mel Robbins, who recently wrote "Stop judging Monica Lewinsky" on www.cnn.com.
It is past time for America to stop piling on Monica.
According to Lewinsky, she has had problems finding gainful employment the past 20 years, with at least one potential employer concerned about what might happen if Hillary Clinton ever became president and Lewinsky was an employee.
It is interesting how in the past two decades the former president has been more or less forgiven for his misdeeds, including his problems defining the word "is," while Lewinsky — now in her 40s — is still the villain.

Sweeny Song Lyrics[Verse 1]
Nine out of ten of these rap niggas is Play-Doh®
I saw "go", niggas'll spray your whip like Mako®
Ya got that yayo for the low, you'd swear that Kanye was here
The way they say "where did 'Ye go?"
My flow strong like it's on that Shake 'N Sako
I don't eat rappers, I box them up like take-home
Get straight dome from a bi bitch
I don't know her name, but told her girlfriend to switch
And the lyrics coalesce, I'll rip the labyrinths
Hazardous material that's oh so immaculate
Accurate position, when I spit this shit, it's calculus
Hard, nigga...
And that was bars, nigga...

Justin Jannetti didn't think it was a big deal. He grabbed his glove, pulled down his cap, and trotted onto the baseball field for the start of another inning.
He's done the same thing hundreds of times in his life.
But a lot of other people at Hank Greenberg Field in Audubon on Sunday knew this was different.
His mother and father fought back tears.
Folks in the stands yelled and clapped when the public-address announcer noted that Jannetti was playing second base for Audubon High School.
Even Audubon coach Rich Horan, who has led the Green Wave to seven state titles, including the last two with Jannetti as a starter, sensed the significance of the moment.

While I continue to mooch off other people's property (that being another computer), I have relized that I was once again limited to my actions in a different kind of way. The Photoshop this computer has won't allow me to make animated Gifs. That being the banner is lame as hell. Nonetheless, I have returned to my position of shit-talking and decided to once again make another installment of 'Review Quickies.' (hence the Part 2 on top) Expect more of the same on this blog as the last one I wrote, where I re-review 5 games and make short distance with them. I will also link my original reviews on top of the new reviews that I make of the games, so if this is too miniscule for your taste them by all means check the original. Also, if you happend to missed Part 1, you can click here to check out what you missed. (Note: Links on this blog will take you to a new window.)
Naruto Saikyou Ninja Daikesshuu 3:
After seeing this picture, and of course playing the game, one thing was clear: THIS GAME STINKS! There were other games that I could've played, and I have now learned not to trust another Naruto handheld game unless it's for the PSP. This is one of the Naruto games not yet released in the U.S., even though they just released the fourth version about a year ago (which I still don't understand). You play as Naruto and the gang and you beat up some random ______(s)(add Ninja, dog, snake, crow, wall), in order to stop Orochimaru and has gang. The result of this West Side Story is very boring and frustrating and just plain ugly, and to quote the 'Angry Nintendo Nerd,' "I'd rather have a buffalo take a diarrea dump in my ear." If I had to give credit to the developers about the game then it have to be that the game can be beat in about a day and gameplay is simplistic. And I say that even after being pushed off a ledge and then waiting 15 seconds for my character to fall into a bottomless pit.
Pokemon Puzzle Challenge:
One of the classic game for the GBC that I still play, and one of the best IMO. Based off the original Tetris Attack (Panel de Pon), Pokemon Puzzle Challenge takes place in the Johto region of the Pokemon-universe, and you are pitted against serveral Gym Leaders only to face the Elite Four and the Champion at the end. Although the game literally looks like a ripped-off version of the SNES version of Tetris Attack, it's not necessarily exactly all alike. When facing a CPU opponent, you have to widdle they're HP down to zero by throwing all the garbage you can at him/her (Like the last Tetris Attack before this one for the GameBoy, and it works with the Pokemon theme.). As always, the Puzzling aspect is as addicting as ever (has it not?), and although it make take some getting used to for beginners, training mode is always there to help. with a plethora of modes, this game was great at it's time, so it should tell you that Planet Puzzle League is by all means better. If there was any criticism about the game that I can give, then it would have to be it's lack of players and it's akward difficulty curve (Easy thorugh Super Hard is a cakewalk but Intense mode is a WTF! in my face.).
Pokemon: Diamond and Pearl:
It's a give-in that if you're playing a Pokemon game, you're gonna want to catch them all. There's really nothing I can say about Pokemon's storyline other than 'Good Guy+Pokemon=P0k3m@n MahstAh Lolz!,' and that is what your achieving for. Plus if you bought Pokemon for it's story, touch screen gameplay, and awesome side-quests, then it is certainly not the game for you. Pokemon is one of those RPGs where community and multiplayer really make the game (like Halo), and I still play it to this day because of it (400 hours so far). The gameplay has been upped a notch, but the changes are very subtle. Moves are now specified whether they are physical, special, or status affecting, and this can really help or hurt the person playing. There are also a lot more moves created in order to add varity to certain Pokemons. You can also transfer older Pokemon from the GBA sagas and can catch specific Pokemon when you have a certain Pokemon GBA cartridge inserted. In the end though, it's the same old Pokemon we have known to love. Just don't play when your on a train, you may observe drowziness and wind-up in Boston or somewhere.
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption:
The Metroid Prime series has finally come to an end, or so we all think at least. Being for the Wii, you expect the game to be a kick ass contender against all other FPS (rather FPA) games. And it is. Unlike how I've presented the game in my original review, I actually loved the FPS action and it's Wii graphics, and I was having that 'I Heart Game' moment. But have to be honest, I felt like I was playing Metroid Prime 2.5, because there really wasn't anything different with the game as a whole, and it seemed to step away from the Metroid norm even more than MP2 did. Also, I half-expected MP3 to have a multiplayer mode even when the first time they did it it sucked. But for a game like this it really could've worked, and it now just seems like a bad decision on the devolopers part. Also the games other options and extras sucked ass too as well as the Wifi options and voice acting, so the only thing that this game has going for it is it's story mode. If you were thinking of buying a Wii game, then I may consider renting at least this one first.
Game & Watch Gallery:
Based off of the Game & Watch games of yesteryear, Game & Watch Gallery was one of the first G&W games to come onto the GameBoy. Only 4 games was presented in this version, the being Fire, Manhole, Octopus, and Oil Panic, and all of them are a lot of fun. It'll take some time to the get the game's difficulty up (and it is a bit tedious when you have to score 1000 or more on Hard mode), but working for it is still exciting enough. Kinda like having an arcade in the palm of your hands, you're always trying your best to beat your own score. The gameplay for each G&W game played well, although I believe that Oil Panic is still annoying. My only concern is that it just wasn't enough for me, having only 4 games in one carteridge while watching a CPU play other G&W classics in the Gallery menu. But it's only a minor gripe really. Considering on getting a good ol' GBA game? Good, get this version or it's GBA bretheren.
Well that's all for now. Expect Part 3 to come....oh what the hell? Like I know when I'll do the next one.

Schiano Throws Freeman Under The Bus For Missing Team Photo
On Thursday, Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano admitted that Josh Freeman missed the team photo, explaining that the quarterback overslept.
?That was dealt with by me internally,? Schiano said.
Schiano added that Freeman has been late for things. But so have other players.
?He wouldn?t be the only one who has been late for something,? Schiano said, adding that he still trusts Josh Freeman.
Regardless, it?s clear that there?s a problem.
?Any time that as a coach you?re trying to instill winning habits in your entire football team, in your organization, really. The way we cook the food, the way we practice, the way we clean the building. We want everything to be an elite level,? Schiano said. ?So when you have mishaps, you have things where guys don?t do things they?re supposed to do when they?re supposed to do it, does it concern me? Sure it does.?

Moving a 50-foot-wide, 15-ton electromagnet from New York to Illinois is no easy task. Over the course of more than a month, the giant particle storage ring traveled by barge down the East Coast, around the tip of Florida, across the Gulf of Mexico and up the Mississippi. It arrived at its new home at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in the suburbs of Chicago in the wee hours of July 26, 2013.
The storage ring was built in Long Island's Brookhaven National Laboratory. But now it's needed at Fermilab for the Muon g-2 experiment, an investigation into muons, subatomic particles that exist for just 2.2 millionths of a second. Compared with Brookhaven, Fermilab can generate more intense and pure beam of muons. Officials have said it costs about 10 times less to move the magnet halfway across the country than it would to build a new one at Fermilab.
A truck had to be carefully designed to transport the Muon g-2 ring and its red stabilizing apparatus during the land legs at the beginning and end its journey — from Brookhaven to a barge and from the barge to Fermilab.
Crane operators carefully move the ring from the specially adapted truck onto a barge at the Smith Point Marina on Long Island on June 24, 2013. The entire apparatus weighed about 50 tons.
Workers from Emmert International secure the Muon g-2 ring to the barge on June 24, 2013.
The Muon g-2 (gee-minus-two) physics experiment will start in 2016 and will involve 26 institutions around the world.
After making it safely down the Atlantic coast and across the Gulf of Mexico, the heavy machinery entered the interior United States. In this photo, a tugboat named Trident pulls the Muon g-2 barge into the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway north of Mobile, Alabama.
In front of St. Louis' Gateway Arch, a tugboat pushes a barge carrying the electromagnet up the Mississippi River.
From the Mississippi River, the electromagnet made its way up the Des Plaines River toward a port in Lemont, Ill. This picture shows the heavy load passing through Joliet, Ill.
A truck hauls the strange cargo in the early morning on Wednesday, July 24, 2013, through the suburbs of Chicago.
The particle storage ring rolls up I-355, outside of Chicago, nearing the end of its slow drive to Fermilab.

Thank you for your patronage!
I learned to knit when I was about 6 or 7 years old. It soon became a passion that I have honed over the years by knitting for myself, my husband and our 8 children as well as many other friends and family members. Our first grandchild is drowning in knits!
I taught most of our children how to knit and have taught others through my LYS over the past several years. I love sharing my passion with other knitters! My latest projects have often included lace and Norwegian designs that look more difficult than they really are, Honest!
I started designing patterns to use in the classes I was teaching. Because of that many of my patterns are for basics. The knitting muse has been taking me to new things lately though! I hope you enjoy seeing what I am doing.
Thanks for your interest in my work. Happy knitting!
I knit a lot of hats for charities which are looking for a hat that will really keep the ears warm. I have tried a lot of patterns but just hadn't found one that met this criteria AND was easy to memorize but could be varied for interest and best use of scrap yarn. Oh, and I also didn't want to have to keep track of how many stitches to cast on for different sizes. Asking a lot, wasn't I?
This stretchy hat knits up quickly. It fits a wide range of sizes from kindergarteners to adults. The longer length and wide turned-back garter stitch cuff keeps the ears cozy in even the coldest weather. Leave it plain or add some stripes to use up your scraps. Best of all it is a very simple, easy to remember pattern! So, won't you join me in making some Warm My Ears Hats for your favorite charity?
