To celebrate Europe Day 2016, the Delegation of the European Union (EU) signed agreements for development projects with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
The EU will provide initial funding of 3 million EURO to FAO to implement a project in Darfur. The project will support small-scale rural farmers, pastoralists and internally displaced persons (IDPs) to inclusively and transparently manage their fragile land resources and achieve peaceful and sustainable development. The project will facilitate access to crop land, livestock routes and pastures for rural communities, as well as support the development of practical dispute resolution mechanisms to address competition over natural resources. . FAO will implement the project with support from the Darfur Land Commission (DLC), the Darfur Regional Authority (DRA), the Voluntary Return and Resettlement Commission (VRRC) and state Ministries of Agriculture, Animal Resources and Housing and Public Infrastructure.
The EU is also providing 3.4 million EURO for a project implemented by the United Nations Environment Programme, the Darfur Development and Reconstruction Agency and SOS Sahel in West Kordofan, West and Central Darfur. Youth, women, internally displaced people, local farmers and pastoralists are among those to benefit from reduced incidences of local strife over natural resources. The aim of the project is to better manage natural resources, provide technical assistance and strengthen capacity for dispute resolution.
Ambassador Tomas Ulicny, Head of Delegation of the European Union said: "The new projects reflect the commitment of the European Union to the peaceful future of communities in Sudan. This will be achieved by improving sustainable development through better management of natural resources and access to land. These two projects, which will be implemented over the next three years, will foster policies to prevent disputes over scarce resources, which have been a major source of conflict in Darfur".
Dr. Abdi Adan Jama, FAO Representative to Sudan said: вҖңFAO is extremely pleased to be partnering with the EU and the Government of Sudan to support inclusive, pro-poor agricultural development through responsible land governance in Darfur. Agriculture is the backbone of DarfurвҖҷs economy and is the principal source of livelihoods for local communities. This project is an important step in strengthening sustainable and community-based management of land resources to eradicate hunger and poverty in Darfur. This is a critical component of FAOвҖҷs work to improve the regionвҖҷs food and nutrition security.вҖқ
Mr. Bradley Smith, Head of UNEP Office to Sudan said: WeвҖҷre very pleased that the inception phase of the project has been successfully completed and is well received and supported by local communities, state governments and our implementing partners. Given that the people of Darfur and Kordofan rely heavily on the environment to meet their basic needs, we believe this project will enable communities to resolve disputes over environmental resources through better management of their water, land and trees. We look forward to implementation, in partnership with key state actors, to jointly improve natural resource management and support peace and sustainable development.

Researchers at Cornell University and Purdue University have claim to have found a link between childhood TV watching and autism, confirming what everyone had already surmised.
The study, by Michael Waldman, Sean Nicholson and Nodir Adilov, is based on data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics American Time Use Survey, which indicates, most perceptively, that children in rainy regions watch more TV than ones in sunny regions.
Now, we know what you're thinking: "Maybe it's the gloom of living in a hellhole like Seattle, Washington, and not the TV, that makes children sick in their heads." But the trio have also related rates of autism to the number of cable TV subscribers in other regions, and found the same connection.
According to the research, heavy TV indulgence before the age of three is clearly associated with an increase in autism. The paper suggests that TV could be a trigger for those with a genetic predisposition toward the condition.
The authors concede that there has been a dramatic increase in reports of autism because of recent regulations requiring it to be tracked, and because the criteria for diagnosis have been expanding greatly, much the way that virtually all teenage health complaints were, until rather recently, attributed to masturbation. Autism has become the "in" diagnosis, so to speak.
But they contend that they've allowed for these phenomena, and still find a relation between autistic kids and the evil tube. Their paper is here, for those who wish to evaluate its merits for themselves. ®

Nielsen: 85% of Global Online Respondents Say Rising Food Prices Will Impact Their Grocery Choices
New Study Examines How Consumers Adjust Their Grocery Buying Habits
In Response to Rising Food Prices
NEW YORK – Oct. 8, 2013 – Eighty-five percent of global consumers in an online survey say rising food prices will affect their choice of grocery products, according to a new study by Nielsen, a leading global provider of information and insights into what consumers watch and buy.
"With the global middle class growing by 70 million[i] each year and food prices expected to more than double within 20 years, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies in many markets are preparing for an unprecedented period of rising demand, economic pressures and aspirationally driven buying behavior," said James Russo, senior vice president, Global Consumer Insights, Nielsen. "FMCG companies focusing solely on consumer income as a barometer of spending habits, however, are unlikely to fulfill their business growth expectations because this is not a middle class only trend. Food inflation affects all consumer incomes. By looking instead at consumer diversity, spending flexibility and the consumer demand landscape, FMCG companies can better understand real-world buying potential and more accurately scale goods and services to meet the needs of consumers in both developed and developing markets around the world."
The Nielsen Global Survey of Inflation Impact surveyed more than 29,000 Internet[ii] respondents in 58 countries to understand how respondents around the world of all income ranges adjust to rising food prices.
The Impact of Rising Food Prices on Spending
Nielsen's information shows that in-home food products were not the only areas of spending impacted by rising food prices. Areas where all respondents would change their spending include dining out (64%), buying new clothes (55%), spending on snack food (45%), paying for recreation and entertainment (44%) and traveling for vacation (39%).
When asked about likely spending changes to specific food categories, 14 percent of global respondents indicated they would buy more loose, unpackaged, unbranded cereal (such as rice, wheat and grains). Eleven percent said they would stock up on fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables, and 8 percent said they would buy more canned fruits and vegetables. More than half of global respondents had no plans to change their spending on staple categories like dairy products (68%), meat and poultry (62%), bread and bakery goods (60%), packaged foods (55%) and fish and seafood (52%). Half of all respondents said they would buy fewer products such as candies, cookies and other sweets (59%), chips and other snack foods (58%), carbonated beverages (53%), alcoholic beverages (49%), prepared meals (48%) and convenience foods (45%).
"Traditional trade is still dominant in many countries, and in these markets, commodity purchases are part of consumers' daily lives," said Russo. "The challenge for marketers will be introducing new brands and products when food inflation is suppressing the ability for these consumers to grow their shopping baskets."
The Impact of Rising Food Prices on Private Label Brands
According to Nielsen, private label or store brand products account for approximately 16 percent of global FMCG dollar share. Nielsen's survey shows that in North America, one of the regions where private label is well established, 46 percent of respondents said they would shop more for private label brands when food prices rise, compared with 7 percent that would increase shopping frequency for national brands. In developed European countries, 35 percent said they would shop more for private label brands, compared with 8 percent that would buy more national brands.
"Private label brands have a potential advantage during inflationary times," said Russo. "However, the price must be right and marketing must be effective for private label brands to succeed. Packaging impacts trust and quality perceptions, especially when private labels extend beyond commodity or low-risk product categories."
Impact of Rising Food Prices on Where Consumers Shop
When asked about how rising food prices may affect where they purchase grocery items, one-third (33%) of global respondents indicated they would shop more at discount/dollar stores, 28 percent would shop more at de-stocking/clearance stores and 23 percent would shop more at hypermarkets/mass merchandisers (23%). One-fifth of global respondents would shop more at warehouse club stores (21%), supermarkets (20%), fresh food farmers markets (20%) and outlet stores (20%) as prices rise. Twenty-one percent said they intended to grow more of their own food and 17 percent would shop more at local neighborhood stores.
"When it comes to rising food prices, nearly everyone feels the pain," said Russo. "Determining which product categories have staying power and which are more vulnerable is critical as consumers make trade-offs and tough in-store decisions. Likewise, as consumers continually look for ways to stretch their budgets and find the best value for money, marketers need to identify retailers that will satisfy the unique demands of consumers around the world."
Nielsen's information shows that nearly half of the respondents in Singapore (48%), South Korea (47%) and Ireland (47%) intend to shop at more discount/dollar stores. Destocking/clearance stores were preferred by 45 percent of respondents in Israel and 44 percent in Greece. Forty percent of respondents in Chile and 36 percent in China said they would shop more at hypermarkets/mass merchandisers. Fresh was preferred among 46 percent of New Zealanders and 33 percent of South Africans, who intend to grow more of their own food and increase shopping frequency at fresh food markets, respectively.
"Evaluating the country profile where the greatest percentage of respondents would increase shopping frequency provides a retail landscape roadmap that reflects both opportunity and availability," said Russo.
The Impact of Rising Prices on How Consumers Shop
During times of rising food prices, 41 percent of global consumers surveyed said they would purchase only sale-priced items. Thirty-two percent of respondents said they would look for deals online, and 29 percent said they would purchase larger pack sizes. Other saving strategies varied, based on regionally-motivated shopping patterns. For example, transportation and storage/refrigeration space was not an issue for 50 percent of North American respondents that would stock up while items were on sale, compared with 34 percent of Asia-Pacific respondents.
"Understanding brand position within the category demand landscape allows for a tailored food inflation response that will protect the most profitable shoppers with optimum efficiency," said Russo. "While the strategic response to consumer buying behavior may be consistent across regions, market-by-market tactical variations are essential."

[ii] While an online survey methodology allows for tremendous scale and global reach, it provides a perspective on the habits of existing Internet users, not total populations. In developing markets where online penetration has not reached majority potential, audiences may be younger and more affluent than the general population of that country. Additionally, survey responses are based on claimed behavior, rather than actual metered data.
About the Nielsen Global Survey
The Nielsen Global Survey of Inflation Impact was conducted between February 18 and March 8, 2013, and polled more than 29,000 online consumers in 58 countries throughout Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, and North America. The sample has quotas based on age and sex for each country based on their Internet users, is weighted to be representative of Internet consumers, and has a maximum margin of error of ±0.6%. This Nielsen survey is based on the behavior of respondents with online access only. Internet penetration rates vary by country. Nielsen uses a minimum reporting standard of 60 percent Internet penetration or 10 million online population for survey inclusion. The Nielsen Global Survey, which includes the Global Consumer Confidence Index, was established in 2005.

2 arrests made in double Modesto shooting that killed teen
Third suspect identified by police department
After making a pair of arrests Monday in a shooting that left a teenager dead and a second victim wounded, police are still on the lookout for a third suspect.
Investigators arrested 25-year-old Santos Joseph Garcia and 18-year-old Brian Storment, both from Modesto.
Jeremy Anthony Romero, 28, also of Modesto, is identified as the third suspect and is considered armed and dangerous, police said.
Romero has several distinctive tattoos on his face, which police are hoping may help them in finding him.
Romero's tattoos consist of the word "Cal" tattooed under his left eye, the word "Modesto" tattooed on his right jaw among other marks, police said.
Police were called on reports of a shooting on Oct. 14, and when they arrived they found a wounded teenager in the yard of a home on the 2100 block of Conant Avenue in the northwest area of Modesto.
The victim was taken to an area hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
A second 23-year-old victim was also shot in the incident. He suffered non-life-threatening injuries, police said.
Through their investigation, police learned that the two victims were standing in the front of a home when they were approached by several men, two of whom opened fire.
Garcia and Storment were booked into the Stanislaus County Jail, each for one count of murder and one count of attempted murder.

One of our favorite artists, Joe Alterio, has given us two reasons to rejoice. First, he just released this piece of "concept art" for a graphic novel based on his amazing series of "Robots And Monsters" images. And secondly, he explained how you can get your very own robot/monster artwork — based on topics of your choosing — and support the Electronic Frontier Foundation at the same time. A few of our favorite Alterio images are below.
When it comes to the Robots And Monsters graphic novel, Alterio says he won't give away too many plot details, "but suffice to say, it has a lot of robots and monsters." That's pretty much all he has to say, as far as I'm concerned. Meanwhile, the EFF says Alterio has relaunched his site, Robots And Monsters: A Charitable Menagerie, as a fundraiser for the electronic civil liberties organization. Here's how it works: You give Joe $50 along with three words or phrases to work from, and he creates an original robot/monser illustration for you. He sends you the original piece of art and posts it in his gallery. And the money goes to the EFF to help stop electronic wiretapping and other abuses. Last year, Alterio did something similar for the SF AIDS Foundation, along with other artists, and managed to raise over $10,000. So let's hope his EFF fundraiser is just as successful this year.

Winter weather leaves hundreds without power
The buildup of ice on power lines left hundreds without power for part of Thursday.
A spokesperson with Carroll Electric said 550 homes were affected by the outages, including homes in Sulphur Springs, Siloam Springs, Eureka Springs and Bella Vista.
Krystal Smith, resident in Sulphur Springs -- where nearly 400 homes were without power -- said Thursday's outage was easy to deal with compared to previous winter storms.
"I wasn't here when the power was out," Smith said. "My mother-in-law said it was for a little bit, but it was nothing like the ice storm about three years ago because it was out for a long time. So they did a good job about getting it turned back on quickly."
Smith said the power was only out for about an hour and a half.
Officials with Carroll Electric said all power has been restored completely.
Power outages were also reported in the River Valley. Greg Davis of Arkansas Valley Electronic Cooperative said he has around 475 customers with power out so far.

A Chicago-based group with ties to Illinois health insurers and Illinois employers is getting $160 million in federal funding to start a new type of health insurer.
The group, Land of Lincoln Health Inc., will be using federal Consumer Operated and Oriented Plan program loans to organize a nonprofit, member-owned mutual health insurer that will sell coverage throughout the state.
Land of Lincoln Health is an arm of the Metropolitan Chicago Healthcare Council (MCHC). The council represents Chicago-area hospitals and hospital-affiliated health care delivery systems. The council's associate members include Humana and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois.
Kevin Scanlan, the president of MCHC, is the chairman of the Land of Lincoln Health formation board.
The Land of Lincoln Health formation board also includes Laura Minzer. Minzer is the executive director of the Illinois Chamber of Commerce Healthcare Council.
"Availability of choice is a very important element to the small group health insurance market," Minzer said in a statement about the CO-OP funding approval announcement. "Consumer oriented and operated plans present the employer community with a great opportunity to address rising health care costs."
The drafters of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA) created the CO-OP program in an effort to increase the level of competition in the health insurance market.
PPACA Section 1322 calls for CO-OP plans to sell coverage through the new PPACA health insurance exchanges, or Web-based health insurance supermarkets, and to get "substantially all" of their business from individuals and small groups.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is administering $3.8 billion in CO-OP startup loan funding.
HHS officials have approved a total of $1.8 billion in CO-OP program funding for CO-OP organizers in 24 states.
For now, at least, Land of Lincoln Health is the only organization with funding to start a CO-OP insurer in Illinois, according to MCHC officials.

The Willowz
Inspired by '70s and early-'80s punk as well as '60s garage rock, blues-rock, and soul, the Anaheim, CA, garage punk trio the Willowz draw from influences roughly twice as old as they are. The group formed in 2002, when singer/guitarist Richie James Follin, bassist/vocalist Jessica Reynoza, and drummer Alex Willow were all in their late teens. Follin taught Reynoza, who is also a painter, how to play bass; while in New York City that summer, he also recorded some songs with producer Paul Kostabi. Follin and Reynoza met Willow at a party soon after. The trio recorded a 7" for the German imprint Wanker, another 7" for Posh Boy, and a self-titled album, which was released in 2004 by Dionysus. The Willowz also gigged prolifically, playing with bands such as the Epoxies, Dance Disaster Movement, the Mutes, the Dirtbombs, and the Weirdos. The rest of 2004 saw the band maintaining their busy schedule by contributing a track to the soundtrack of Michel Gondry's Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; Gondry also directed the video for "Meet Your Demise." The Willowz also did a split 7" with the Distraction and toured the U.K. that summer. In 2005, the band made its Sympathy for the Record Industry debut with Are Coming, which featured re-recorded versions of many of the tracks on The Willowz, and released the much more ambitious Talk in Circles later that year. The DVD Seeinsquares arrived in 2006. Early in 2007, the Willowz returned with Chautauqua, which was issued by Dim Mak. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi

Adobe is encouraging innovation in a whole new way. Meet Kickbox.
It starts with a shiny red box. You open it and discover $1,000 USD and everything you need to launch an idea. One of the world's best innovators will teach you how to come up with the idea, test it with real consumers, and make it a reality in a new Adobe product.
It's the Adobe Kickbox program. You don't have to be an engineer or even have an idea to start with. All you need is a willingness to learn and the motivation to see an idea through.
Chief strategist, vice president of creativity • San Jose, California
"We want more disruptive innovation and less planned innovation. To do this, we had to let go. We thought, what if we removed the obstacles that are stopping people from innovating? What if we gave them the resources? There are no rules or constraints. The approach to innovation in Kickbox is giving people the permission to go do it."
When serial start-up entrepreneur Mark Randall joined Adobe, he was asked to use his experience to teach others how to innovate. Initially, he wondered whether it was even possible in a large corporation.
"One of the challenges that large corporations have is trying to drive employee motivation to innovate," Mark says. "Kickbox was an attempt to resolve that by looking at the history of what companies have done and then removing the obstacles that have stood in the way."
Traditionally, he says, companies have asked employees for ideas and then let corporate executives decide an idea's fate in a sudden-death scenario. The problem, he says, is the idea never has a chance to iterate and evolve with feedback.
The Adobe Kickbox program empowers employees to create an idea and take it straight to the consumer for testing. "We say, 'Don't tell us the idea — just go do it.' And that was a radical thought." He adds, "The fact that we give them $1,000 USD on a prepaid credit card to pursue the idea — no receipts, no expense reporting, no questions asked — that's empowering."
A key part of the process is learning through validation whether the customer likes the idea. Then, employees can pitch it to any number of executives, any number of times.
"You can present to hundreds. All you need is to get one to say yes," Mark says. "It can be the 20th one after 19 have said no. An employee can keep going until getting a yes."
Mark says that personal motivation is one of the keys to seeing an idea come to life in Kickbox.
"You can't pay someone to be innovative," he says. "It's like paying someone to fall in love. Innovation is hard — you run up against obstacles — you have to change what you're doing and try again. Because it's hard, you have to do this because you care about it."
Acrobat.com architect • Boston, Massachusetts
Kickbox idea: Bringing paper homework assignments into the digital world.
"It's exciting to go to a big company and propose something that, on the face of it, is a very new direction. The possibility of seeing it through is exciting."
Eddie A. wasn't sure what to expect at the first-ever Kickbox workshop. He knew it was designed to spur innovation, but he didn't expect to generate a new idea that could make a big impact on education.
"We came up with an idea that's pretty out-of-the-box," Eddie says. "We'd like to take the paper system of homework to an all-digital solution. Homework could be created and completed online with a digital history that's accessible to students, teachers, and parents."
Since the workshop, Eddie has gotten support to further the idea by adding a manager and a team. The experience has helped Eddie grow a variety of skills, from building a business case to acquiring backing from executives and creating an effective marketing pitch.
Eddie says Kickbox gave him a fresh perspective on his career. "If Adobe adopts this solution full-scale, and I can go through the company seeding ideas and creating new products, then that sounds pretty awesome."
Senior software development manager • San Jose, California
Kickbox idea: Creating video stories that sync images and music with mood and emotion.
"The idea of creation fuels me. It's like having a little start-up within Adobe. This is something that we can shape in any way we want."
As a new mom, Wennie loves taking pictures of her kids. Through Kickbox, she and a team came up with an idea that would transform personal memories into digital stories. It would sync photos and audio into videos that can be customized with mood and emotion. "My original hope was that this could become a keepsake — a digital journal of someone's life. In the case of my kids, of their lives, with music that captures the feeling of the time."
Wennie said reception to the idea has been fantastic. "I was surprised at how willing upper management was to give us support, even when the product was in its infancy."
Part of the Kickbox process is to continue to work with customer feedback to shape the idea. "We are given the complete freedom to experiment. If we fail, then we validated that it wasn't a good idea. But continuing to try is the most valuable experience."
Computer scientist • Hamburg, Germany
Kickbox idea: Creating a real-world game in which users participate in creative challenges in locations they discover through global positioning systems (GPS).
"A lot of people said, 'Adobe will never do this,' but in the end, they were wrong. With Kickbox, you get to try out things that you really think are innovative — and you can prove it."
Like a lot of the people in Kickbox, Samy came up with an idea that had nothing to do with his job. "As a computer scientist, my job is about metadata and intelligence creation. But this idea is about creative challenges."
Similar to geocaching, Samy's idea is a real-world adventure in which people participate in creative competitions they find through GPS. In just six months, Samy's idea kicked his career into high gear. It sparked a collaboration with Red Bull and landed him a booth at Adobe's MAX innovation conference. Now he's working on the idea full-time.
"Before this, I hadn't talked with any executives, and now I've talked with lots of them about my idea," Samy says. "To be able to call a vice president directly and skip several levels was a great experience and probably something very unique to Adobe."

http://mmajunkie.com Times are tough right now for Mike Brown, to say the very least.
The former WEC featherweight champion has lost four of his past six fights and two in a row for the first time since 2004. His future is uncertain and remains on unstable ground due to his recent performances.
Couple that with lingering questions regarding the 35-year-old's overall health after nearly a decade in the fight game, and his career officially has been placed in a quandary.
Winless in 2011, his year got off to a rocky start after a split-decision loss to Diego Nunes on New Year's Day on the preliminary card of UFC 125.
In an attempt to right his wrong, Brown (24-8 MMA, 0-3 UFC) jumped right back on the horse and took a fight with Rani Yahya just 21 days later on the preliminary card of the "UFC Fight Night 23: UFC Fights for the Troops 2" event.
He would suffer the same fate, but this time it was unanimous in the eyes of the judges. In the process, he clearly looked like a shell of his former self in the cage.
"That should be a cakewalk fight for me," Brown recently told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). "Rani Yahya has better jiu jitsu than me, no doubt about it, but I'm stronger and have way better wrestling. I hit harder. It just didn't happen."
To make matters worse, his body began to betray him just as the fight unfolded.
"I tore a ligament in my finger, completely snapped it," he said. "My finger was like a rubber finger bending any which way, any time.
"It was in a scramble early. I don't know if I caught it on him or the cage. I went to grab him, and I couldn't grab him very well. I looked, and my finger was bent the wrong way. My hand was not working properly."
Despite his string of setbacks, Brown refuses to make any excuses as he expects results regardless.
"I can't blame the fight on that (the injury)," he said. "There was a lot going on. It was one of the worst performances I've ever had. It just breaks my heart. I can't even tell you how bad it hurts."
To correct his injured hand, Brown recently had surgery, his seventh career fight-related operation, to be exact.
"I'm in a cast for five weeks, and I need four weeks of rehab," he said.
But that's not all. He potentially could have a bigger, much more serious issue to address.
"I am seeing a cardiologist," Brown said. "It's something to do with my heart rate not being right.
"It happened in the middle of camp. We thought we were overtraining because I was peaking hard, and all the sudden, I started getting more and more tired really quickly. It didn't make any sense. I'd be sparring for half a round, and I was getting exhausted. But two weeks before, I was mowing through everyone in camp."
Although he did experience the same sensation against Nunes, it was even more pronounced in the Yahya fight.
"My body shut down," he said. "I had this weird lactic acid buildup real early. It's the most bizarre thing. It just wasn't me."
Currently, the jury is still out on what exactly has been plaguing him.
Likely empathizing with his current situation, UFC officials decided not to sever ties with Brown after his most recent loss.
The fact that he's a former champion and known commodity, has shown a willingness to fight on short notice on multiple occasions, and competes in a division that is still evolving all helped his cause to a certain degree, as well.
"I was thinking after I lost it was maybe 50-50 (shot of getting released)," he said. "Who knows what they were going to do? I've seen great guys get dropped before. I've had a bad year. I wouldn't have been totally shocked if they dumped me, but I thank them for not.
"(Matchmaker) Sean Shelby and those guys – they like me, and they know something was up. They said, 'Don't worry, Mike. You've got a job. Get yourself together and we'll have you back.'"

I found my thermostat not working. After googling for a solution, I found that I may need to check my emergency cut-off.
I know of a pipe that if tripped will turn-off the A/C, so I took the pipe cleaner did some plunging and attempted to clear it out. After doing so, the thermostat turned back on and my system started working again.
Did I do the right thing? What kind of maintenance could I do at home to avoid this cut-off?
I'm a novice at HVAC, I can identify only the heat pump and thermostat!
Included photo of pipe in question.

With summer finally upon us, the sunshine's (sort of) beating down. The weather's getting (a bit) hotter, and so are the gadgets. Here's our top nine products announces in Japan this month.
This month in we've seen a number of classy gizmos emerge from the Far East: from the HTC Touch Pro smartphone — the business-oriented sister handset of the Touch Diamond — to Asus' Wii-like motion-sensitive control. There's even a few TVs for good measure.
Hands-on with HTC's Touch Pro
The strongest impression I took away from HTC's Touch Pro was of the bright, crisp screen on the Windows Mobile 6.1 handset.
From the front the HTC Touch Pro looks much like the Touch Diamond that was launched last month but with the two in my hand it was obvious that the Touch Pro is thicker. The reason is a slide-out Qwerty keyboard that appears from the back of the phone and makes for much easier typing. Each of the keys is beveled so that there's an obvious distinction between each one — a handy feature on a keypad that's relatively small.
In spite of its small size, the well-contoured keyboard and predictive text input system meant that the first sentence I typed on the Touch Pro came out perfectly, something that can't be said for every smartphone I've tried.
The keyboard has been improved from previous models with a fifth row of number keys above the main keyboard. Personally, I hate having to hold down a shift or function key to tap out numbers on smartphones, so the number row is a welcome addition.
The phone felt solid and well-made and the phone's body slid smoothly when the keyboard was pulled out. It wasn't so heavy that it weighed on my hands when typing, another occasional problem on smartphones that restricts use. HTC said it weighs 165g. The 2.8in LCD screen was a pleasure to look at. It has VGA resolution (640 pixels by 480 pixels) so the images appear very sharp and text looks superb. Strong colours enhanced the screen image.
The HTC Touch Pro should be available from August in major markets worldwide. No price was announced.
Samsung slow-mo HMX20 video camera
Samsung has launched a high-def video camera that can also snap high-resolution digital photos and take smooth slow-motion video.
The Samsung HMX20, which was shown as a prototype at CES in Las Vegas in January, can manage 1080p full HD (1,920 by 1,080 pixels) video and 8MP images. It's also capable of snapping pictures while video is being recorded, a feature that is becoming popular on cameras but is still not standard.
A special feature is the 300 frames per second (fps) shooting mode for slow-motion video. Video is usually recorded at 30fps and becomes jumpy when slowed down, but by recording at 300fps it can be slowed down by as much as 10 times and still appear smooth. Data is recorded on to the internal 8GB of memory or SD or MMC memory cards. Priced at around £428, the camera will initially be available in South Korea.
Launch details for other markets have not been set.
Asus Eee Stick
Taiwan's Asus is bringing Ninetendo Wii-like wireless gaming to the PC.
Eee Sticks are a pair of motion-sensitive controllers that gamers can use to bowl, slash swords and play other games on a PC.
Initially, Asustek plans to bundle the controllers with its popular Eee PC low-cost laptops, and the desktop Eee Box that will be available in mid-August.
Next year, the Eee Sticks will be sold in packs with five to eight games for around £33 to £41. So far, Asustek has only inked licensing agreements with a handful of game companies for their games can be used with Eee Stick.
The company plans to talk with more game developers, including Electronic Arts, to expand its offerings.
