iPhone Gaming : Apps Prices are too Cheap to be Missed

This is a continuation of an article about the iPhone, and why it is my gaming console preference nowadays. Before it was between the ps3 or pc, based on the history of consoles. But now, practicality and "coolness" says to me that iPhone is the gaming console that can be more practical without sacrificing gaming fun.

Great graphics, cool company, although I am not an affiliate or an advertiser for Apple, I think it is the coolest handheld gaming console I possess so far. From the previous article, I have discussed that there are Sony and Nintendo consoles, which are all great no questions about it, but the iPhone caught my attention a few days after I met it and didn't let go.

There are many apps out there for our own mobile phones, and we enjoy games while on the road or bored. As for me, there were times that games in phones were a burden because first of all, my mobile phone ( I don't want to name names ) didn't have great graphics and a large memory to keep up with the gaming needs. And it made the phone slow and could not function properly anymore.

iPhone apps are great, not only can the hardware back up the great graphics and gameplay of every game, but the apps are cheap! $9.95 or less, I wouldn't have to worry about my conscience having to pirate games ( which is bad by the way) just to enjoy the full versions of the games available.

But I think one of the greatest thing about this is that there are literally a flood of apps out there, and there are many more independent and non-independent developers who make games out of innovation and response to every taste available. All genres that you want to enjoy, from RPG to casual games, apps growing by the minute can be a real delight of choices for every iPhone Gaming aficionado.

iPhone gaming is rising, and timing as it is , the practicality of costs iPhone apps offers will be one of the greatest reasons I have now that will make me a die hard fan of the iPhone.

iPhone Gaming : My Game Engine of Choice

2009-05-14T08:00:00.000-07:00

I used to own many game consoles as I was young. The game boy, the nintendo, and you can go old as you can go, I have it.But when I grew older, I slowly realized that gaming with all those big cartridges may not suit me, so it kept the gamers gaming spirit suppressed inside.

Then born was the PSP's, the Nintendo DS, and other portable gaming consoles that went popular with all those cool graphics and great games of every genre. From racing to RPG, to more casual games when you just want to "kill time" while waiting in line or something like that.

It sure made some high hopes for me, because I can bring my gaming experience anywhere and do it when I choose, but there is another tiny dilemma, working in the corporate world, don't you think its a turn off seeing a grown man working with a PSP in hand? Well, in my opinion at least, I was not comfortable with the thought.

I wanted something discreet, yet it could deliver the gaming experience I always wanted, the great graphics, the gameplay, and the gamer inside of me could be unleashed.

The iPhone, ah, the sheer genius of Macintosh, isn't it? A great company creating a hip phone with all the cool graphics and interface built in a pocket size mobile phone.

The news broke out that iPhone was made, and there was a "sub-world" if I may call it, iPhone gaming. Because of the great hardware Mac created with the iPhone, applications did not only came in calculators or the default games like Snake, but it created a whole new opportunity to enjoy gaming even in a mobile phone such as the iPhone.

Discreet, great graphics and really cool game choices. Ah, yes, the iPhone has become my gaming engine of choice. With also cheap but cool games, I can enjoy a variety of game genres of my liking.

With all the 'seven-geese-a-laying', 'nine-ladies-dancing', and all the 'million gamers gaming', iPhone is the gaming engine of choice for me.

Practical, because of the cheap games but are really cool, compared to the higher cost of other gaming consoles. And with the economy today, I can save money while enjoying great gameplay and cool graphics
Did I mentioned discreet? I can use it as a phone by day, and transform if into a gaming engine by night, or, uhh, err, my spare time.
With all the new games and latest release dates I hear about, I can keep up with all the latest action for me with the iPhone.

I thought I could never enjoy portable gaming anymore like I once used to, but after work, when stressed, or bored, I can just simple get my iPhone and just go into a world where I can relax and have fun and never have to worry about high cost of games, just what game to play next.

And with the independent software producers on the rise, or "fresh blood" as I like to call them, there will be more unique games to come, I'm sure.

With the era of mobile phones rising, So is the approach of developers in making really cool games. There was a time pc games at its roots and now has the competition level at its peak. Independent software developers were in to face large development teams today, making an individual's ideas seldom ignored.

But with the rise of the iPhone, developers see a chance to show off fresh and creative new ideas for another set of top mobile games. Now that is what adaptive software development is all about. Apple's birth to the iPhone and Mac gave "a fertile land to plant on", even surpassing the Desktop Software world.

It is said that iPhone gaming will become popular very very soon because of the practicality it offers compare to the more popular gaming consoles out there. More practical, and less cost for the same bliss in gaming is only of a few reasons why gamers turn their heads on being an iPhone and iTouch fanatic. Games are also growing by the minute, making choices for gaming easy and specific for every taste and age.

Connecting to the Market

With the advertising competition exceeding the roof, Independent Software Developers have opened doors to making a name of themselves, and one of them is through social media, like Facebook and Myspace.
This is their more personal approach to the internet marketing field, which sometimes a more effective strategy.

Gaming updates and a game rising is not a problem with this, because you can always put it up on social media networks and potential customers and gaming aficionados are updated. Creativity and innovation can be transfered in a snap with the power of social media.

The Promise

iPhone will definitely get better in years to come. And that may be the cue for independent software developers to create and pour some fresh blood to respond to the needs of iPhone and iTouch gamers, casual or not.

Game Review for Fifa 09 on the Playstaion 3

2009-04-03T00:12:00.000-07:00

There are now over 250 add improvements to the new FIFA 09 game. FIFA 09 on the Playstation 3 delivers an authentic football simulation that enables you to customize the game to suit your style and ability. New animation technology creates more responsive first-time shooting and passing, faster and more controlled dribbling, and improved trapping.

New player momentum physics, which exploits the power of the next-gen platform engines, delivers realistic player collisions, authentic jostling for the ball, and more variation in tackling. What ever happened to the old football games where you could either slide or just run unto the play..

For the first time, go inside the game engine to customize the strategy and positioning of your teammates to decide exactly how your team will play in any given situation on the footbal pitch. With new Custom Team Tactics you have all the tools to become a first-team coach. Adjust and customize tactical settings so CPU players and your team perform just like the real-world team plays and make strategic decisions to exploit your opponent’s weaknesses, all on-the-fly.

The popular feature innovation of FIFA games of the past was Be A Pro. In FIFA 09 for the PS3 this has been expanded to a career mode called Be A Pro: Seasons, where you can choose or create a professional player and then develop his skills at a single outfield position over four years with the ultimate goal of becoming a national legend. One slight dissapointment is that a real football career would last longer. It would have good to say, have a 20 year career but your physical rating drop - you could then Be A Pro Sheringham style and play into your 40’s…hahaha. The FIFA 09 matchday experience is now true-to-life with a referee and linesmen on the pitch. Plus, crowds, stadium atmosphere and commentary have all been regionalized to the exact detail.

How to use the Memory Stick PSP Downloads

2009-03-17T20:04:00.000-07:00

With the stress in your day to day work, you might be looking for some way to release all the stress and tension in your life. One of the ways to do this would be to use memory stick PSP downloads. PSP handheld devices were part of the revolution that occurred in the gaming industry. The gaming consoles that were developed saw a great transition with the arrivals of these play station portable devices. Ease of use and portability are the two main features of these PSP devices.

Games for these PSP devices indeed proved to be very costly as these need to be converted to the right media. One way in which this problem was resolved by the presence of demo downloads. This was called Memory stick PSP downloads. Every handheld PSP device that was discovered needed a memory stick whose capacity was at least one gigabyte. You could buy the memory stick PSP downloads based on the capacity you require and the budget you have ready.

These memory stick PSP downloads are very helpful and they are easily transferred to your device. There are several websites from where you can download the games for your PSP. For an initial payment of a small amount you will be able to download any amount of the best games. You can download demos of these games and see if you like them before using them on your memory stick PSP downloads.

Once they are downloaded from the internet onto your computer, you only need a USB cable to transfer them as memory stick PSP downloads. All that you need to take care is that your PSP device needs to have the right amount of memory for running these games. When you purchase these memory sticks you need to be careful regarding the quality of the ones you purchase.

The Ultimate Online Abstract Strategy Game – Try It Free

2009-03-17T19:54:00.000-07:00

Total Blockout is an abstract strategy board game for one or more players (currently limited to two players in the computer version). As with many polymino-styled games, this game requires exceptional spatial skills. What makes it unique from other such games is it's need for its players to develop single-move strategies in line with an overall game plan. Furthermore, constraints have been placed in the selection of pieces available during your turn, requiring extraordinary memorization of pieces used in previous moves. There are many solutions to the puzzle. However, you will soon see just how difficult it is to find just one solution given these pattern constraints.

Total Blockout is new to the gaming industry, with a launch date of December 18, 2008. The developer, SKY Games, is actively pursuing quality endorsements and awards from distinctive associations and societies. Examples include, but are not limited to, Mensa Select, Teachers Choice, National Association of Parenting Publications, Parent's Choice, Oppenheim Toy Portfolio, Creative Child magazine and many more.

In time, we hope that Total Blockout will not be just another game, but a true classic, recognized as a household name. You can help SKY Games bring more quality gaming experiences and their related benefits by sharing your positive experience with others. Thank you for visiting our site and hopefully testing your skill with at

How to play:

There are 7 groups of 7 pieces each, with each group representing a value of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7. Thus, 49 pieces total to complete the board.

The player starts with placing a piece with value 1, then 2, then 3,4,5,6 and finally the largest piece with a value = 7. The cycle repeats itself until the player has nowhere to place a piece.

Piece selection does not change, rather the group is reduced each time by the individual selection made, so memory of pieces left to play the successing rounds is key.

Though this game was designed with entertainment in mind, we came to recognize the multiple benefits this game offers to all who play. Firsts and foremost, the game is adaptable to people of all ages. Children can benefit from the development of spatial attributes, configuring sizes and shapes within borders. Teens can develop early logic and strategic abilities, exercising the mind while common video games offer little, if any, mental growth. Adults can take challenge themselves or compete with others across the globe to learn new approaches to strategy. The elderly can also benefit by regular play, prolonging, if not preventing, the deterioration of memory and other cerebral functions.

Unless you're a genius and cannot only complete the algorithms for multiple solutions, but have the memory to make your moves within the controlled sequence, you will be both entertained and smarter from the experience.

The higher the total number of squares filled on the gameboard, the higher your score.

Twelve Step Selection Process For Dropshippers

2009-03-17T19:47:00.000-07:00

Dropshipping has rapidly become one of the easiest ways to sell products on the internet without the need for capital, there are literally thousands of sites out there that pertain to be dropshippers and it can be a minefield for those looking to get into dropshipping in order to make some money. I have been using dropshipping for a number of years now and thought that I would document a few of my thoughts and questions that come to mind when I consider a new dropshipper arrangement.

Some questions you may wish to ask are:

1. Is the dropshipping product list static?

What I mean by this is ‘are the products available going to change', this is important because if a dropshipper sticks to a fixed product list then you have no way of moving with the times and you will be plugging away trying to dropship out of ‘life cycle' products. Ideally the product list should update regularly giving you different products to promote and make money from.

2. What availability guarantees are they claiming and are they proven?

One of the key factors to consider when using a dropshipper is the availability of product, remember you are selling to a customer without having the product at hand so you need to be assured that when you sell that Playstation3 or iPod that the dropshipper will have the product in stock and be able to deliver to your customer. There is nothing worse than selling a product to a customer who thinks you have the product in stock only to find out the dropshipper is out of stock and you have to let them down. I term this Business Critical, as there is no hope of return custom after letting people down. Some of the more advanced dropshippers have online access to their stock lists and you can see what they have in stock and how quickly they go out of stock before you choose to sell a particular product.

3. Previous customer testimonials?

Nothing is better than word of mouth; if a previous customer is willing to praise the dropshipper then they are obviously doing something right.

4. Sales/Copy and images for auctions?

Does the dropshipper provide any sales copy and/or images that you can use on your sales pages? Most of the reputable ones are willing to help you in this area because the more you sell the more they sell. Some dropshippers even provide website templates and complete sites for you to install which can help if you have a limited technical ability.

5. Does the pricing allow you a margin?

When selecting a dropshipper always compare the prices they charge to those that are being commanded in your marketplace, research some offers from your competition and see whether you are comparable or hopefully better. Obviously this is one single product and don't be afraid to use a dropshipper for one product and use another for another product, dropshipping is that easy you can use 10 dropshippers to sell 10 different products.

6. How long does it take before you ship my order?

What are the lead times for the shipping of your orders, obviously your customers are expecting a speedy service and if the dropshipper in question is going to take 2-3 weeks to ship then you are not going to have many happy customers. You will also need this information so that in your sales copy you can inform the customer the expected delivery times. Most reputable dropshippers ship in 3 days maximum, with some delivering next day.

7. Can I place orders 24/7?

This can be important especially if you are using a dropshipper in a different country, the country you are selling in maybe during the day while the one that the dropshipper is in may be the middle of the night and as such may cause added delays if they do not have a system in place. Top line dropshippers have automated systems but other reputable dropshippers still use manual ordering so this is not a factor to put you off but more a bonus if the system is automated.

8. How will my merchandise be shipped?

The simple question here is will the item be shipped under plain packaging? If it isn't then the customer can circumvent you on any subsequent orders, which isn't a business practice that will sustain your own. Again, pretty much all the reputable dropshippers post under plain packaging but there are a few that don't and obviously these are the ones to avoid. It is also wise to review how the dropshipper delivers, ie. With postal service/3 rd party service they are using and the guarantees/information that they provide such as tracking codes etc. Always go with a dropshipping service that doesn't advertise themselves when they ship.

9. Do you ship internationally?

Obviously, you want to sell to the biggest market you can and if your dropshipper will not ship internationally then you will potentially be losing a large chunk of sales. Again this needs to be taken into context with the product you are selling, if it is a country specific product that you are just selling then international shipping is not a factor also if it is a bulky product then the shipping costs would be that large that most international customers would not want to pay the cost and this again negates the need to ship internationally.

10. Are you a middle man or a dropshipper?

When researching a dropshipper you want to make sure that they are actually a true dropshipper and not actually a middle man that is using a dropshipper to dropship for you. This means that you are being overcharged and that with a bit more research you will be able to locate the original dropshipper and make some extra profit per sale.

11. What is the return and refund policy?

What exactly is the policy, most dropshippers accept returns and if they do not then do not use them period. Obviously when selling any product your customer may have a problem with it or feel it is actually unsuitable after all and wish to return it, this is obviously a service you may or may not actually offer to your customer however having a strictly prohibited returns policy will lose you sales so it is something you need to be clear on. What generally happens is you contact the dropshipper and they issue you with a returns authority number (RA) for which you need to use to send the products back, when the product arrives back then they issue a refund which you pass onto the customer. Obviously, this adds time to the return process and in the meantime you may wish to refund the customer as soon as they return the product to you before you send it back to your dropshipper because this will speed the customer refund and increase your customer service.

12. Do you have to reside in the same country to use the dropshipper?

Some dropshippers only allow residents of their own country to use their service and this question needs to be asked so that there is no confusion and problems going forward. Although not a complete list these are the twelve questions that I refer back to when selecting a new dropshipping partner and they have kept me out of trouble so far. You may wish to add to this list yourself but with a few simple questions and a little bit of research you can turn your dropshipping dreams into reality and start earning some money. Dropshipping is here to stay and there are many people that say it doesn't work, well I am not one of them and I am successfully using a number of dropshippers to serve my increasing international customer base both in a timely and customer focused manner.

How to Get Paid to Test Video Games

2009-02-28T20:57:00.000-08:00

The video game industry has exploded in the last decade. Video games are not just for kids and teenagers any more. More adults than ever and even seniors are now playing video games. The video game industry has exploded into a multi billion dollar industry in a very short amount of time and is showing no signs of slowing down.

Even in tough economic times video game sales keep growing. When people are laid off and stuck at home they need something to do. That's just more demand for video games. After playing a game for a while it doesn't take long before people have to have something better and most will find a way to buy the latest release.

This demand is so huge that video game producers are having a difficult time keeping up and hiring enough employees to meet the demand. One of the easiest positions to get into in the video game industry is being a tester for new products. Often times when a game is released the programmers are in such a rush to make the deadline that they are sometimes released with bugs and errors. Because of this there is an increasing demand for people who are willing to get paid to test video games.

Testers who get paid to test video games are sent new releases free so they can play the games just like they would for their own entertainment. Then they log any problems they find and send the list to the company. Different people play games differently so some people may miss an error that another person might catch. And the programmers have had their heads buried in the program for months so they are not very objective and are likely to overlook a lot of things. So what the video game producers need is many testers who will play the game at home just like someone would do in the real world. Testing by average every day users playing at home provides a more real world experience where the errors are more likely to happen and less likely to be overlooked.

For people who love to play video games being a video game tester from home can be an excellent opportunity. Click the link below for more tips and ideas about how to get paid to play video games.

When you sign up to become a member of an online video game rental service, you will need to pay a subscription fee per month as long as you continue with your subscription. Irrespective of the number of games that you rent, you will need to bear no additional cost except this monthly subscription fee. If you feel that your online video game rental service provider falls short of your expectations and can’t provide what was promised, you may even terminate you membership at anytime. No penalty or additional cost will be charged in case you return them all the rented games.

Joining the online rental service provider of your choice is the first step to rent games online . After you join, you have to to pick the video game titles that you want to rent. You can do this by exploring or browsing through the online rental service provider’s site. Once you find the games of your choice, click on them to add to your list. After you confirm your list, the service provider will send you one or more than one titles (based on your payment plan). Once you take delivery of the games, you may keep them as long as you want.

After you have finished playing the games, you can return the titles very easily. As most of these online video game rental services provide free shipping, you have to return the games in a prepaid mailer which would be sent to you. After receiving the returned game titles, they will dispatch the next titles based on your priority list. If the title on top of your preferred list is not available at that time, they will send you the subsequent titles marked on your list. You can include new game titles or modify your choices in the list whenever you like to.

Renting video games online has its own benefits as compared to purchasing video games or getting the titles on rent from local stores. Firstly, local stores have limited editions of video games whereas you can access thousands of video game titles by becoming the subscriber of an online video game rental service. Moreover, as no late fee or due dates are there, you can keep the games till you have played them the umpteenth time. It often happens that you want to hang onto a great game to finish the different levels and it may take a week or more. A local store won’t allow you to keep the rented games for so long. In addition to this, if you rent games online, you won’t have to face the hassle of reaching the local store, getting stuck in the traffic, standing in the lines, etc.

Renting video games online as a substitute of purchasing them is a cost-effective method. You can change a title immediately if you detest it and get a substitute in return. However, the majority of “brick and mortar” stores do not permit you to return any opened software. So, in case you dislike a game, you can do nothing but regret on having paid for it. That’s why it is wise to rent games online and enjoy playing them without paying a fortune.

The Ultimate Online Abstract Strategy Game – Try It Free

2009-02-28T20:37:00.000-08:00

Total Blockout is an abstract strategy board game for one or more players (currently limited to two players in the computer version). As with many polymino-styled games, this game requires exceptional spatial skills. What makes it unique from other such games is it's need for its players to develop single-move strategies in line with an overall game plan. Furthermore, constraints have been placed in the selection of pieces available during your turn, requiring extraordinary memorization of pieces used in previous moves. There are many solutions to the puzzle. However, you will soon see just how difficult it is to find just one solution given these pattern constraints.

Total Blockout is new to the gaming industry, with a launch date of December 18, 2008. The developer, SKY Games, is actively pursuing quality endorsements and awards from distinctive associations and societies. Examples include, but are not limited to, Mensa Select, Teachers Choice, National Association of Parenting Publications, Parent's Choice, Oppenheim Toy Portfolio, Creative Child magazine and many more.

In time, we hope that Total Blockout will not be just another game, but a true classic, recognized as a household name. You can help SKY Games bring more quality gaming experiences and their related benefits by sharing your positive experience with others. Thank you for visiting our site and hopefully testing your skill with at http://www.totalblockout.com

How to play:

There are 7 groups of 7 pieces each, with each group representing a value of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7. Thus, 49 pieces total to complete the board.

The player starts with placing a piece with value 1, then 2, then 3,4,5,6 and finally the largest piece with a value = 7. The cycle repeats itself until the player has nowhere to place a piece.

Piece selection does not change, rather the group is reduced each time by the individual selection made, so memory of pieces left to play the successing rounds is key.

Though this game was designed with entertainment in mind, we came to recognize the multiple benefits this game offers to all who play. Firsts and foremost, the game is adaptable to people of all ages. Children can benefit from the development of spatial attributes, configuring sizes and shapes within borders. Teens can develop early logic and strategic abilities, exercising the mind while common video games offer little, if any, mental growth. Adults can take challenge themselves or compete with others across the globe to learn new approaches to strategy. The elderly can also benefit by regular play, prolonging, if not preventing, the deterioration of memory and other cerebral functions.

A Prelude To Comprehending Tarot Cards

2009-02-24T15:05:00.000-08:00

Tarot cards consist of 21 cards for every suit. A lot of parts of Europe use the deck to play games, but this is less favored in English speaking countries where the deck is commonly used for divination. Tarot cards pinpoint their past events back in the 14th century. Speculation denotes that they were founded in Islamic countries, but the fundamental ancient news of them is when they were banned in the dominantly Christian area of Bern, Switzerland. Early tarot decks, howbeit, highlighted only sixteen trump cards, as compared to the twenty one that are displayed in up-to-date decks. The concurrent tarot deck is separated into what is commonly christened the major arcana or trump cards and minor arcane or suits of cards. The trump cards or major arcana consist of twenty two cards, every one of without suits. These include the fool, the Magician, the Empress, Justice, the Wheel of Fortune and others. The minor arcana is made up of of four suits of cards; swords, staves, cups and coins. Nowadays, staves are frequently called wands, but rods or batons are seen as well. Coins might be christened disks or pentacles in some tarot decks. Tarot card meanings are generally changing - and they have also changed drastically through time. In the leading-edge era, anyhow, there are common interpretations for cards. Minor arcana cards, for example, carry with them a widely astrological meaning that varies depending on the time of year. The court cards, on the alternative hand, talk of unlike folk. Their nature most often talks about the physical and emotional features of these populace. To go into specific cards, their meanings are determined by the following things: Card Number, decisive Number, Rulership (Astrology), Hebrew Letter, Translation, and Numerical Value. The meaning is also determined by the position of the card, whether it is upright or Ill-exalted/Reversed. Death (Arcana), for example, means change. For all that, an upright Death means change that brings about 'new life,' whilst a reversed Death means 'tender and abrupt change.' Along with the advancing interpretations to the meaning of tarot cards come new methods for card readers to express the message to the average Joe. Present, face-to-face card readings are being replaced by phone and online readings. Despite, for stocked impact and experience, face-to-face card readings still trump more methods. Face-to-face tarot readings allow the individual to select his face-down card, giving him a semblance of control to his fortunes. Face-to-face readings are common in community fairs, parties, and in the highways. 21 cardsThe price of a tarot card studying varies depending on the popularity of the reader and how much detail the person wants to know about his future. Phone readings are available on the Internet for approximately £5.00 per reading. Perhaps it is significantly cheaper than face to face readings due to the lack of mystique and personal/visual connection with the reader himself. While the old lang syne presented interested parties with the option of calling a phone line, the Internet now offers international calls for the same price, and if one is interested, one can acquire a translating through credit card of PayPal. The well-known repute of phone readings is that the impersonal nature of the transaction weakens the link, although this could also be attributed to the absence of mystique from the service. Although tarot is known as something that is as accurate as astrology, there is still a growing tarot service market that is ever increasing through new mediums. Withal, purists still think that a face to face tarot reading is important. It is also important to note that tarot cards are not purely divinatory devices. They are also used in many countries as cards used for playing. This alone should encourage tarot card users to keep a level head.21 cards

Why Does the U.S. Tend to Punish Rather Than Rehabilitate?

2009-02-24T14:59:00.000-08:00

Over-crowded prisons are a serious problem in the U.S. This country has a higher percentage of its population behind bars than any other developed nation. Is this an indication of increased crime? Not necessarily. It reflects a years-long crackdown on sentencing for drug-related crime. To address the issue, many states have implemented drug courts that give non-violent drug offenders, whose crimes are often committed to get the drugs they crave, the opportunity to get off drugs through addiction treatment programs instead of going to prison. Drug courts have saved taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars but, nevertheless, drug court funding is frequently near the top of the list for budget cuts when money is tight.

In addition to reducing the number of people on drugs and the number of prisoners incarcerated for non-violent drug-related offenses, drug courts also successfully reduce recidivism (committing another crime after release and going back to prison) and the number of people going to prison, or back to prison, because they violated probation. In some states, recidivism and probation violation account for the majority of prison system costs.

Drug courts get people off drugs, reduce crime, insurance claims and health costs, make our neighborhoods safer, and lower the potential of our own kids being introduced to drugs because there are fewer druggies around. They also turn drug addicts into productive members of society.

All told, this also saves the government, and taxpayers, a considerable amount of money. The reduction in incarceration costs alone is significant - sending someone to prison costs about $26,000; getting them through drug rehab costs less than $7,000.

A study conducted on New York’s drug courts estimated that diverting 18,000 non-violent drug offenders saved the state $254 million in incarceration costs.

Similar studies in California showed over $43 million in costs saved over a two-year period.

Washington State realized $1.74 in benefits for every dollar invested in drug courts.

A study in Multnomah County, Oregon, found that every dollar spent on drug courts saved $10 for taxpayers. This small county with a population of about 660,000 saved more than $1.5 million in 30 months.

So why are drug courts and similar alternatives on the list of things to go when the money’s tight? Anyone who can count their change when they buy a quart of milk can see it doesn’t add up.

Whatever the reasons, they certainly haven’t been forthcoming. Start-up costs, initial investment, have been mentioned. But California solved that problem long ago: about 60% of the drug court funding came from the corrections budget.

Other than that, we get double-speak platitudes like "In tough economic times, you have to make decisions that aren't easy or pleasant." Thanks to Del. Chris Jones, R-Suffolk, Virginia for that one. Where, by the way, housing an adult prisoner costs about $23,000 year, a juvenile costs more than $100,000, and the average amount spent on drug court, per participant, is $2,190.

You’d think it would be a no-brainer. Obviously, there’s something going on we don’t know about, and we might never know. But drug courts have proven time and time again that addiction treatment works and with enough pressure from the general public – who pay through the nose for the justice and prison systems and still have to live with high crime rates, much of which is drug-related – we may be able to save these programs.

Drug Abuse

2009-02-24T14:54:00.000-08:00

You may have heard that alcohol damages the brain. It is true? Not only is it true, it doesn’t even take much alcohol to start the process. One night of drinking impairs critical thinking for a month; you can well imagine what frequent drinking can do. If you’re expecting the young adults in your family to be able to make correct decisions, you could be out of luck. To make real change, you may need to take the lead and get them into an addiction treatment center. Drug Abuse

What does alcohol do to a person’s brain? The first part of the brain to be affected by alcohol is the frontal lobe. It’s located at the front of the brain, and is responsible for such things as long-term memory, drive and motivation, the ability to plan, make decisions, and control impulses.

Being able to assess the consequences of your actions, to choose between right and wrong or determine which direction is best, to respond and react to life in a socially acceptable manner are all ‘life skills’ related to the health of the frontal lobe.

The frontal lobe matures slowly compared to other parts of the brain: it’s not fully matured until age 25. So every bit of drinking kids do before they reach that age not only impairs their thinking on a day to day basis, it could impair them for life. Drug Abuse

Can the brain damage from alcohol be reversed?

Unfortunately, nobody really knows. Once the person quits drinking, there are a number of factors at play: how much the person drank and how frequently, how long they drank and how old they were when they started, whether there was exposure to alcohol prior to birth, their genetic background, and their general health status all combine to determine the extent of the damage done and the possibility of reversing it.

The good news is that after a year of not drinking, most brains at least start to show improvement. And we can grow new brain cells.

But even with full recovery, there’s a lot of wasted years.

Do you want to help? Get them into alcohol rehab as quickly as possible. The sooner the process is started, the greater the chances of recovery and a good life. Drug Abuse

Liverpool vs Man City Football Betting Premiership

2009-02-24T14:51:00.000-08:00

Liverpool are hanging on by a thread as Manchester United keep on winning and looking at the rest of the schedule, the Man U squad doesn’t look like they are ready to slow down.

So this matchup for Liverpool vs. Manchester City is an important one, as the Reds need every point they can win, including the maximum number in this Sunday contest. Liverpool haven’t played a game since February 7th, which we feel will help them, as they needed to get re-energized and focused on the road ahead.

Rafa Benitez will need to remind his side that this is a critical match and not to take it lightly. With a Champions League battle looming vs. Real Madrid and a huge match at Old Trafford vs. Manchester United on deck; it is entirely possible the City match doesn’t get the necessary attention.

But man City does not usually put up too tough a test when they are the visitor, having failed to record a victory in 10 Premier League away games.

Liverpool have won their last five straight as a host to Man City, but it is worth noting all five of those results produced wins by a single goal. The most recent three all ended 1-0 for the Reds.

When looking at a bet on this one, look for Liverpool to stay focused and get all three points. They are clearly the better side, playing at home and they should be motivated.

How to Write a Massive Battle for your Epic Fantasy Novel

2009-02-24T14:45:00.000-08:00

If you are writing an epic fantasy novel you are no doubt thinking in big broad strokes. This is of course the point of fantasy that is epic. And one of the key components of this kind of novel is the big battle where forces of good and evil typically meet, often at the climax of the story. This article will give you tips on how to write these scenes well and will give you some pointers on the pitfalls to avoid.

The real task when writing a large scale battle scene is to take a lot of visual information and clearly describe it in writing. This can be a challenge but here are some ways that will help you do it in a way that it is understandable and enjoyable by your reader.

Draw Yourself a Map

This is the most important thing you can do. You have to sketch out a map for your own use. It is very important for you to be able to clearly visualize the battlefield, the location of combatants, and the various landmarks. Ask yourself some questions when drawing out the map. Where are the hills, mountains, streams and rivers? Are there any unusual terrain features that you should note? Are there unusual terrain features that are specific to the fantasy world you have created? Are there any bridges over waterways? Are there buildings, castles, or other structures? You should draw these structures right on the map. And if a castle or a keep is a central figure in the battle you should draw it with as much detail as possible. These things are all important because they are military positions, the terrain, structures, bridges and other things all have a bearing on how combat is fought.

Dealing with the fluidity of the Battlefield

A very large battle is not a static thing or a single event entity. There are many things going on over the course of time which could be hours, days, or even weeks. This fluidity and all the changing variables can cause information overload or confusion in your reader. What you can do to help yourself to better describe what is happening over a period of time is to make yourself a small table top simulation of the battlefield. You can draw the terrain on it and then add objects that represent buildings, landmarks, and troops. This is exactly what all generals do and it is something you can do to keep things straight and accurate.

Changing Point of View

Your novel may be written in first person or third person omnipresent and you may want to stick with whatever scheme you are using but in a big battle it is often a good idea to switch between these two views. This switching can add suspense and paint a rich picture for your readers. The first person view can jump from person to person or across enemy lines between “bad” and “good” guys. This will lend emotional impact to the battle. Using a third person view of the battle will lend a sense of grandeur to the battle and make it more epic. You can do this simply as third person omnipresent or you can even do it from the first person perspective of a bird or dragon flying overhead. The third person view can also be a great tool for building suspense in the battle. The reader will feel anxious and worried if from the bird’s eye view he knows there is a secret attack coming from behind that he can see but the warriors on the battlefield cannot see. Handling the Logistics and Mechanics of Battle

Epic Fantasy

One of the most important things you have to consider when it comes to a large battle is the logistics of everything. Every general in the real world worries about the logistics of getting things to where they need to be. Troops have to be moved and this takes time. And those troops need food, water, and all kinds of other things like weapons, clothing, first aid -and the list goes on and on. They also need large places to camp and to sleep. Remember these things and plan accordingly. Shortages of materials can also make for very intense plot points. Real wars and battles have been won or lost based strictly on availability of supplies. Make use of this.

Magic, Elves, Dwarves, and other unusual things in your Novel and in your Battle,

Epic Fantasy You are writing a fantasy novel so chances are good that you have all sorts of fantasy things in it. Things like magic, elves, dwarves, dragons, and whatever else your imagination stirs up. And all of these things may be a critical part of your battle scene but you have to be careful. Even though it is a fantasy world you have created, it still has to follow rules that make sense. What good is it if a wizard can cast a spell that kills all the enemies? Or if you have creatures that are so well armored they are practically invincible? Everything should have limitations and everything should have consequences. If the wizard casts that terrible spell would he also die? That would be an interesting twist. And what if the invincibly armored creatures moved at a snail’s pace and are very susceptible to fire. See what I mean? Set limitations and rules that add to the story and the drama.

Epic Fantasy And your various creatures may have specific logistical needs. Elves may need to sleep twenty hours a day or dwarves may be useless in daylight and Dragons may need very special food that is hard to come by. In summary, a fantasy battle on a large scale is a complex organism that moves in a lot of different ways and you, as the author, need to keep all the information straight in your mind so you can convey it clearly to your reader. And you have to do it in a way that makes sense.

Motorcycle Racing Games

2009-02-21T22:53:00.001-08:00

These are some of the most fun racing games to play online because the best races are automatically recorded and you can play against the previous high scores to improve your own performance. An Internet search for available racing game downloads will reveal kids motor cycle games like Daredevil and Motor Bike Game. The Motor Bike Game is just like a real motor cycle race with pit stops and laps and the goal is to always finish first in order to ascend to the next level of difficulty.

One of the first motorcycle racing games ever created is not one of the racing games to play online as it is a video game dating back to 1991. Developed by Electronic Arts the game called Road Rash throws the player in the middle of illegal violent street motorcycle races. It was probably the first game in the history of motorcycle racing games that combined combat and motorcycle racing, and probably the first game that allowed weapons (clubs, crowbars, cattle prods or police batons).

The game has several levels of increasing difficulty and the player needs to finish each race on one of the first three places if he is to advance to the next race. For every victory the player receives a certain amount of money which can be used upgrade the motorcycle, buy a new motorcycle or pay the police fine when being arrested. Since it is a game of illegal street races the police can pop up at any time and mess with your score.

Other more modern racing games to play online are Motor Bike Game, Daredevil, Test Drive Unlimited, Grand Theft Auto or MX vs. ATV Unleashed; although they are not all actual motorcycle racing games and some of them just combine motorcycle racing with car racing or boat racing, etc.

One of the most original motorcycle racing games is the MX vs. ATV Unleashed which takes trophy trucks, monster trucks and motorcycles and makes them race together on one single track to offer you a race like you’ve never raced before. car racing

The Test Drive Unlimited is a combination of cars and motorcycles together in an off road and on road race across one thousand miles of Hawaiian territory. Last but not least Daredevil is a kid’s motorcycle racing game that lets you perform some of the most spectacular motorcycle stunts ever seen on the internet.car racing

Improve Reading Skills with Computer and Video Games

2009-02-19T04:48:00.000-08:00

Advances in technology have greatly increased the tools we can choose from to assist with the improvement of reading skills. I am going to focus on computer learning software for kids. This is of particular interest to me because while the child is increasing his or her attentional capacity by playing a video game he is also fine tuning reading specific skills such as comprehension and vocabulary.

In ‘Action Video Game Modifies Visual Selection Attention’ published in April 2003 by Shawn Green & Daphne Bavelier a study was conducted to analyze the effects of video game playing on visual attention resources. Green and Bavelier did find that video-game players do indeed have a greater attentional capacity than non video-game players. Thus, we can assume that video games do in fact improve reading skills by increasing the attentional capacity.

Children who have difficulty reading are more likely to drop out of high school and less likely to attend college. Therefore, focusing on and solidifying reading skills at a young age is incredibly important to an individuals overall success. Reading can be very difficult skill to motivate a young person to practice. However, once an agreed upon method or methods are found it is an easy skill to improve and you will see progress quickly.

I conducted a search for games that would enhance specific reading skills while incorporating the above mentioned increase in attentional capacity and offer the following reviews.

Reader Rabbit 1 Software by The Learning Company builds early reading skills and is geared for ages 4-7. Features include match up, sorter, labeler and word train. Educational benefits include increasing vocabulary by associating pictures with their names, increasing the understanding of letter-sound correspondences with the use of lifelike speech throughout the program and allowing parents to customize their child's learning experience using graduated levels of difficulty. Reading Comprehension Booster by Merit Software allows students to receive practice in using basic reading improvement strategies and is geared for grades 3 through 5. Students work with interactive exercises to determine main idea, make inferences, and draw conclusions. Assessments place students in appropriate units of instruction. Students advance as they demonstrate readiness. They receive immediate instructional feedback throughout. The Jump Start Series by Knowledge Adventure pack extreme fun and exciting adventure into learning. The game takes you through an adventure for example, solving a mystery while using various skills to navigate through a number of different settings. Skills include Parts of Speech, Spelling and Vocabulary, Addition and Subtraction, Multiplication and Division, Prime Numbers, Fractions, Decimals, Estimation, Science, Geography, Music, The Arts and History. Jump Start series is available from Kindergarten through 6th grade!

How Do I Become A Game Tester? Find Out Here

2009-02-19T04:43:00.000-08:00

1. Prepare yourself: you need to prepare yourself in a professional manner. How do you prepare yourself? By getting acquitted with the responsibilities of a video game tester. The main role of a video game tester is to detect bugs and report it to the developer that assigned you the testing job. First and foremost, you need to learn how to detect bugs. If you already a game player, one that does it for fun, it will be easier for you to learn how to detect glitches in game. You can get this knowledge by testing small games for the web. That way, you will get the experience required to test games for developers. Another way to learn how to test games and find bugs is to play buggy games. Through these ways, you could develop the knowledge and experience required to taken on a bigger testing job.

2. Get yourself a resume: a resume is necessary for you to land a testing job. It’s through your resume companies will be able to know your capabilities before they offer you the job. When building your resume, do not forget to include games you own, the games you’ve play and anything about video games that can thrill your employer. If there is any time you’ve discovered a bug while playing games, also include it in your resume. It will also interest you to know that video game testing is normally assigned to people that are 18 years and above, though people that are below 18 years also get this job but it is very rare. Let that not derail your dreams, its necessary you try first. After you’ve built a resume, review it over and over again to make sure its accurate and no mistakes.

3. Getting Your First Testing Job: After you’ve built your resume, your next step should be to forward it to developers and testing firms. Whether they are hiring or not, just send it to them. That way, you will be on a reserve list if they are not hiring at the moment. It’s not necessary to make direct contact with developers, and let them know about your interest. Convince them and give them many reasons to make them believe you are going to make a thorough testing if you are given one. Getting a video game testing job depends on the amount of effort you put into it. You can’t get a testing job by sitting at home all day, playing games and praying to get one, one day. The more effort you put into it, the more you increase your chances of landing this job. The opportunities are there to be exploited. Video games are produced weekly and monthly, so there are ample of chances for testers. Prepare yourself well, in a professional manner; remember that your first impression counts. When you’ve gotten the testing job and you receive your first testing, read the manual that came with the testing assignment very well. Test the games over and over again, write down your report as you test. When you are through with testing, proofread your report and send it back to the company that assigned you the job. Hopefully, you will get your first check in no time after you’ve submitted your first testing and also don’t let that tie you down in your next assignment.

Gamer Testing Ground is a site which provides you with all the step-by-step guide to become a video game tester and companies hiring video game testers.

Games to Play at Wedding Receptions - Some Entertaining Wedding Shower

2009-02-19T04:35:00.000-08:00

There are so many forms of entertainment that you can come up with when organizing a nuptial shower. While some of such games may sound childish, others will look mature. But you should not be worried about this because your final aim should be providing the guests with some entertainment.

You can organize a game which will include either the spouses-to-be to have some additional understanding of each other. Before the shower, you can meet the groom and come up with as many questions as possible which will have to do with some personal aspects in his life. At the shower, you can bring to the bride to the lime light be letting her give answers to these questions. Just observe the responses and see the number of correct response. You should be sure that most of the responses are going to be accurate. At the end of the exercise, make sure a prize is allocated to her.

A very fashionable game is to devise a game which will involve making dresses using toilet papers. You are going to create teams of between two to five members. Each team is going to make use of these materials to design a wedding outfit. Some costume and jewelries will be used to adorn the dresses. Also remember that there should be a time limit for making these dresses. In most cases, five minutes should be enough. As soon as the teams are through with what they have designed, the bride will have to determine which of the dresses is best. A prize should also be given to the team that came up with the best designing.

One additional amusing activity is something that will involve the bride to dress up under the cover of darkness or with her vision totally impaired. You can let her have the impression that she is on one of her most respected occasions with the groom and there is no light. Compel her to dress up from an assortment of outfits that will also be selected in the dark. Give her a time limit to put up her dress. To make the game more interesting, add some funny items to the set of outfits. At the end of this game, you can take some pictures of her as she comes out of the dark. Keep in mind that this is more than instant fun to actually having some memorable pictures.

You can further decide to bring up something extra which will concentrate more on the guests than the bride. There is a game in which almost all the purses of the guests will be positioned at the center of the room. An inventory of things which can commonly be found in the purses should be catalogued. This should be done the same with items which cannot easily be found in the purses. For items which seem rare, they should be ranked higher than what can be usually found in the purses. Start scanning through all the purses and see which of the purse registers the highest number of points. The person with this purse should also be given a trophy.

There are so many other activities that can be done at the bridal shower. You can go in for a bingo game or another form of game. A very popular activity that originated from bachelorette parties is one in which a stripper is used. Before the part and just about half an hour, pieces of papers should be given to the interested guests who will put down anything they notice about the bride's dressing. In fact, include a listing of everything concerning her appearance. This should be done when she is out of the room. She will then be brought into the room and the guest who has the most perfect observations is given a prize.

Recognizing, Preventing, And Handling Dog Aggression

2009-02-18T01:42:00.000-08:00

A dog is an instinctively aggressive creature. In the wild, aggression came in very handy: dogs needed aggression to hunt, to defend themselves from other creatures, and to defend resources such as food, a place to sleep, and a mate. Selective breeding over the centuries has minimized and refined this trait significantly, but there’s just no getting around it: dogs are physically capable of inflicting serious harm (just look at those teeth!) because that’s how they’ve survived and evolved. And Mother Nature is pretty wily – it’s hard to counteract the power of instinct!

But that doesn’t mean that we, as dog lovers and owners, are entirely helpless when it comes to handling our dogs. There’s a lot that we can do to prevent aggression from rearing its ugly head in the first place – and even if prevention hasn’t been possible (for whatever reason), there are still steps that we can take to recognize and deal with it efficiently.

- Different aggression types -

There are several different types of canine aggression. The two most common ones are:

- Aggression towards strangers

- Aggression towards family members

You may be wondering why we’re bothering categorizing this stuff: after all, aggression is aggression, and we want to turf it out NOW, not waste time with the details – right?

Well … not quite. These two different types of aggression stem from very different causes, and require different types of treatment.

- Aggression towards strangers -

What is it?

It’s pretty easy to tell when a dog’s nervy around strange people. He’s jumpy and on the alert: either he can’t sit still and is constantly fidgeting, leaping at the smallest sound, and pacing around barking and whining; or he’s veerrrry still indeed, sitting rock-steady in one place, staring hard at the object of his suspicions (a visitor, the mailman, someone approaching him on the street while he’s tied up outside a store.)

Why does it happen?

There’s one major reason why a dog doesn’t like strange people: he’s never had the chance to get used to them. Remember, your dog relies 100% on you to broaden his horizons for him: without being taken on lots of outings to see the world and realize for himself, through consistent and positive experiences, that the unknown doesn’t necessarily equal bad news for him, how can he realistically be expected to relax in an unfamiliar situation?

What can I do about it?

The process of accustoming your dog to the world and all the strange people (and animals) that it contains is called socialization. This is an incredibly important aspect of your dog’s upbringing: in fact, it’s pretty hard to overemphasize just how important it is. Socializing your dog means exposing him from a young age (generally speaking, as soon as he’s had his vaccinations) to a wide variety of new experiences, new people, and new animals.

How does socialization prevent stranger aggression?

When you socialize your dog, you’re getting him to learn through experience that new sights and sounds are fun, not scary.

It’s not enough to expose an adult dog to a crowd of unfamiliar people and tell him to “Settle down, Roxy, it’s OK” – he has to learn that it’s OK for himself. And he needs to do it from puppyhood for the lesson to sink in.

The more types of people and animals he meets (babies, toddlers, teenagers, old people, men, women, people wearing uniforms, people wearing motorcycle helmets, people carrying umbrellas, etc) in a fun and relaxed context, the more at ease and happy – and safe around strangers - he’ll be in general.

How can I socialize my dog so that he doesn’t develop a fear of strangers?

Socializing your dog is pretty easy to do – it’s more of a general effort than a specific training regimen.

First of all, you should take him to puppy preschool. This is a generic term for a series of easy group-training classes for puppies (often performed at the vet clinic, which has the additional benefit of teaching your dog positive associations with the vet!).

In a puppy preschool class, about ten or so puppy owners get together with a qualified trainer (often there’ll be at least two trainers present – the more there are, the better, since it means you get more one-on-one time with a professional) and start teaching their puppies the basic obedience commands: sit, stay, and so on.

Even though the obedience work is very helpful and is a great way to start your puppy on the road to being a trustworthy adult dog, really the best part of puppy preschool is the play sessions: several times throughout the class, the puppies are encouraged to run around off-leash and play amongst themselves.

This is an ideal environment for them to learn good social skills: there’s a whole bunch of unfamiliar dogs present (which teaches them how to interact with strange dogs), there’s a whole bunch of unfamiliar people present (which teaches them that new faces are nothing to be afraid of), and the environment is safe and controlled (there’s at least one certified trainer present to make sure that things don’t get out of hand).

Socialization doesn’t just stop with puppy preschool, though. It’s an ongoing effort throughout the life of your puppy and dog: he needs to be taken to a whole bunch of new places and environments.

Remember not to overwhelm him: start off slow, and build up his tolerance gradually.

- Aggression towards family members -

There are two common reasons why a dog is aggressive towards members of his own human family:

- He’s trying to defend something he thinks of as his from a perceived threat (you).

This is known as resource guarding, and though it may sound innocuous, there’s actually a lot more going on here than your dog simply trying to keep his kibble to himself.

- He’s not comfortable with the treatment/handling he’s getting from you or other members of the family.

What’s resource guarding?

Resource guarding is pretty common among dogs. The term refers to overly-possessive behavior on behalf of your dog: for instance, snarling at you if you approach him when he’s eating, or giving you “the eye” (a flinty-eyed, direct stare) if you reach your hand out to take a toy away from him.

All dogs can be possessive from time to time – it’s in their natures. Sometimes they’re possessive over things with no conceivable value: inedible trash, balled up pieces of paper or tissue, old socks. More frequently, however, resource-guarding becomes an issue over items with a very real and understandable value: food and toys.

Why does it happen?

It all boils down to the issue of dominance. Let me take a moment to explain this concept: dogs are pack animals. This means that they’re used to a very structured environment: in a dog-pack, each individual animal is ranked in a hierarchy of position and power (or “dominance”) in relation to every other animal. Each animal is aware of the rank of every other animal, which means he knows specifically how to act in any given situation (whether to back down, whether to push the issue, whether to muscle in or not on somebody else’s turf, etc etc).

To your dog, the family environment is no different to the dog-pack environment. Your dog has ranked each member of the family, and has his own perception of where he ranks in that environment as well.

This is where it gets interesting: if your dog perceives himself as higher up on the social totem-pole than other family members, he’s going to get cheeky. If he’s really got an overinflated sense of his own importance, he’ll start to act aggressively.

Why? Because dominance and aggression are the exclusive rights of a superior-ranked animal. No underdog would ever show aggression or act dominantly to a higher-ranked animal (the consequences would be dire, and he knows it!)

Resource guarding is a classic example of dominant behavior: only a higher-ranked dog (a “dominant” dog) would act aggressively in defence of resources.

To put it plainly: if it was clear to your dog that he is not, in fact, the leader of the family, he’d never even dream of trying to prevent you from taking his food or toys – because a lower-ranking dog (him) will always go along with what the higher-ranking dogs (you and your family) say.

So what can I do about it? The best treatment for dominant, aggressive behavior is consistent, frequent obedience work, which will underline your authority over your dog. Just two fifteen-minute sessions a day will make it perfectly clear to your dog that you’re the boss, and that it pays to do what you say.

You can make this fact clear to him by rewarding him (with treats and lavish praise) for obeying a command, and isolating him (putting him in “time-out”, either outside the house or in a room by himself) for misbehaviour.

- If you’re not entirely confident doing this yourself, you may wish to consider enlisting the assistance of a qualified dog-trainer.

- Brush up on your understanding of canine psychology and communication, so that you understand what he’s trying to say – this will help you to nip any dominant behaviors in the bud, and to communicate your own authority more effectively

- Train regularly: keep obedience sessions short and productive (no more than fifteen minutes – maybe two or three of these per day).

Why doesn’t my dog like to be handled?

All dogs have different handling thresholds. Some dogs like lots of cuddles, and are perfectly content to be hugged, kissed, and have arms slung over their shoulders (this is the ultimate “I’m the boss” gesture to a dog, which is why a lot of them won’t tolerate it.) Others – usually the ones not accustomed to a great deal of physical contact from a very young age – aren’t comfortable with too much full-body contact and will get nervy and agitated if someone persists in trying to hug them.

Another common cause of handling-induced aggression is a bad grooming experience: nail-clipping and bathing are the two common culprits.

When you clip a dog’s nails, it’s very easy to “quick” him – that is, cut the blood vessel that runs inside the nail. This is extremely painful to a dog, and is a sure-fire way to cause a long-lasting aversion to those clippers.

Being washed is something that a great many dogs have difficulty dealing with – a lot of owners, when confronted with a wild-eyed, half-washed, upset dog, feel that in order to complete the wash they have to forcibly restrain him. This only adds to the dog’s sense of panic, and reinforces his impression of a wash as something to be avoided at all costs – if necessary, to defend himself from it with a display of teeth and hackles.

Can I “retrain” him to enjoy being handled and groomed?

In a word: yes. It’s a lot easier if you start from a young age – handle your puppy a lot, get him used to being touched and rubbed all over. Young dogs generally enjoy being handled – it’s only older ones who haven’t had a lot of physical contact throughout their lives that sometimes find physical affection difficult to accept.

Practice picking up his paws and touching them with the clipper; practice taking him into the bath (or outside, under the faucet – whatever works for you, but warm water is much more pleasant for a dog than a freezing spray of ice-water!), and augment the process throughout with lots of praise and the occasional small treat.

For an older dog that may already have had several unpleasant handling/grooming experiences, things are a little more difficult. You need to undo the damage already caused by those bad experiences, which you can do by taking things very slowly – with an emphasis on keeping your dog calm.

The instant he starts to show signs of stress, stop immediately and let him relax. Try to make the whole thing into a game: give him lots of praise, pats, and treats.

Take things slowly. Don’t push it too far: if you get nervous, stop.

Dogs show aggression for a reason: they’re warning you to back off, or else! If your dog just can’t seem to accept being groomed, no matter how much practice you put in, it’s best to hand the job over to the professionals.

Your vet will clip his nails for you (make sure you tell him first that he gets aggressive when the clippers come out, so your vet can take the necessary precautions!). As far as washing and brushing goes, the dog-grooming business is a flourishing industry: for a small fee, you can get your dog washed, clipped, brushed, and whatever else you require by experienced professionals (again, make sure you tell them about your dog’s reaction to the experience first!)

Game designers are in demand. The gaming industry is growing faster than colleges and schools can churn out students. The hours are long, and the work is addictive – but if you can learn to program as well as you play, a game designer career could become a reality for you.

game designers
are passionate self-learners with addictive personalities. They are addicted to games, and they must be in order to be a game designer. Game designers are under pressure to meet deadlines, but deadlines crush creativity. They are in a constant battle on the screen, and within themselves. When passionate gaming mixes with creativity, programming, endurance and addiction, a game designer is born.

Gaming isn’t child’s play anymore, it’s big business. In 2008 the US pulled in a hefty 22 billion dollars from the gaming industry, despite economic woes. Globally, the gaming industry was a winner in 2007 with over 41 billion dollars worth of gaming hardware and software filling the living rooms of gamers everywhere. There are job titles that future game designers aren’t even aware exist. Of course there’s a chief technical officer, a senior programmer, and an art director – but now the entertainment and media want ads are looking for lead scenario designers, battle designers, combat designers and level designers. There are game designer careers within game designer jobs. Some other titles for game designer careers are scenario designer, concept author, conceptual designer, level planner and camera designer. Then of course there’s the textual artist, background modeler, environment designer and character designer. But it all starts with a computer and an education – and lots of game playing.

A game designer education needs to include courses in programming, graphic design, media, art, communication, marketing, algebra and geometry. Self-learning, by taking advantage of game creating software (game engine tools) and 3D modeling tools can give you a head start. Going back to play some of the historical games and reviewing the history of video games can also put you a level over the competition. If you are addicted enough and have the perseverance to pursue your career, getting a college education is the fastest and easiest way to get your foot in the door. Your portfolio should include courses in digital media, communication, graphic design and computer programming at the minimum. Try to get courses in animation, cinematics, creative writing or storytelling. The majority of game designers have a degree, and common majors are computer science, art and English.

game designer positions will be growing with technology. Your talent and on-the-job experience in game designing will carry you up the levels in your career, but your college education will get you in the door. Investing in an education in game designing will give you the career potential to make well over $50,000 and do something you love. Design a plan for your future, and take the path to your game design career. A game designer that loves to game will always win.

It's a Knockout Game Show - Made My Sides Ache

2009-02-17T07:02:00.000-08:00

Does anybody remember 'It's A Knockout' on the good old BBC in the 70's? What a treat that was for the whole family. It's A Knockout was compulsive viewing in our house. The whole family would get real comfy around telly and delight at the stupid games, water fights and of course those hilarious Giant characters nodding about with stupid expressions on their faces.

The interest and great laughter came from the cleverly inventive Knockout games such as: Elastic Bungee runs, Greasy Poles, Water Fights, Water Slides, Slippery Turntables, Giants in Costumes and more. All of course with some good old BBC Gunge thrown in. Loved it!

Of course we had the local regional heats first, traipsing across merry old UK in the winter weather in some forsaken farmer's field maybe! It's a knockout would then go on to the European version for summer viewing (a much better idea), which I think as called "Jeux Sans Frontières", which if my French serves me well means something like "Games Without Borders"... all in the interests of better Euro-relations. But we still wanted to stuff the rest didn't we !!

A friend told me that It's A Knockout actually started in the late 1960s in black & white but became a top show in the early 70's. The main compere I remember was Stuart 'Mad as a Hatter' Hall, running around like a demented pixie and laughing hysterically at the contestants antics. He would 'interview' contestants before and after a silly game; confirm the 'Joker' had been played; try to hold the show together with commentary and of course check the scores with the dolly bird scorer, whom usually wore very tight hot-pants, the must have 70s fashion item for any self respecting dumb-blond.

Of course there are now companies that have revived the It's A Knockout concept for team-building, private parties and family fun-days, I guess to cater for our nostalgia.

There was a 'Marathon' game that I think was ongoing between each other individual Knockout game. I can't remember quite how this one worked but I think it was the BIG game that was spun out over the show to build a bit of tension to the scoring. The Joker of course could be played for a very confident team to double their points but was often squandered!

And who was the Knock-out's 'Dip-Stick'? He used to carry a very long stick to measure water collected from some precarious collection game? Was it Arthur someone or Eddie Waring ?? Or was he the Knockout referee with the whistle? He couldn't talk that's for sure!!

Whatever. I remember it fondly and in the pre-digital, reality TV age with only 3 channels to choose from then it was good family viewing... I don't suppose It's A Knock-out would last the test of time now? (unless it was called "I'm a celebrity, get me on the new knockout show cos I haven't been picked for anything else show").

Burning XBOX Games Made Easy - Here's How!

It makes sense for Xbox owners to want to have a copy of their own games. Some have tried to use the same program for burning CDs but such a program is not going to work when it comes to copying games.

Now we will try to clarify the procedures involved in copying your games. But one important thing is needed to be cleared before we discuss the procedures.

This article is not written for the benefit of those people who do game copying for illegal purposes. We are discussing this topic only to explain how to create a backup copy of your own Xbox games.

The procedure is simple and you can easily understand the instructions because the steps required are not complicated.

You are most probably asking the same question as we raised at the start - why won't software for CD music burning work for copying Xbox games.

The program for game copying is developed with advanced technology that works specifically for games unlike the ordinary program for CD or DVD burning.

Burning XBOX Games Made Easy - Here's How!
All of the discs of Xbox are copyright protected. To make it possible for your computer to make a copy it's essential that you have a special program installed that bypasses these protections. This program is essential for your computer to be able to read and copy the data the Xbox game contains.

Only a few companies develop software programs that can make backup copies of Xbox and other games. This program, once installed in your computer, will enable your computer to read and copy games whenever you want.

Copying Xbox games with this program installed is a simple process. The computer can do it without you having any special technical knowledge. With the help of the installed software, the copying is done by simply putting the Xbox CD in, waiting for a copy to be made on your hard drive, insert a blank CD, and wait for the transfer of the copied data to the blank CD.
Burning XBOX Games Made Easy - Here's How!

It is really that simple and uncomplicated. Sure doesn't take an expert!

Although the steps are simple, you should still be aware that some programs are offered at too high of a price. Don't get fooled by the colorful words of some distributors. The software can be purchased at around $30 to $40 so please don't pay more than that. You will still get the same product even though you won't have to shell out as much dough!

There you have it! Get a game copying program installed and you're all set.

Here's the Best Way to Find Nintendo Wii Game Downloads

2009-01-12T20:13:00.000-08:00

Nintendo Wii Game

With the booming sales of the Nintendo Wii, we decided it would be a good idea to create a guide for learning how to download Wii games. As you likely know, it can get pricey to buy brand new games at the store. Downloading games for your Wii can save you a bundle of money. As an added bonus, you'll always have access to any new game you'd like to try.

Downloading Wii games is a pretty recent development. Most Wii owners have no idea how simple it can be to download games for a Wii system. We asked our followers about this, and discovered that while almost everyone knew about downloading games and music, they didn't know that full versions of games can be downloaded from the internet. Our readers seemed to think that only outdated or partial games were available online.

The exciting news is that full game versions for even the newest and most popular games are available for download from the internet. The available selection is stunning, and we ought to let you know ahead of time - it's habit forming!
Nintendo Wii Game

Now, let's get going! Here are instructions for how to download Wii games:

Let's start by warning you about sites that promote "free" downloadable Wii games. A few of these sites are around, and should generally be avoided.

You're likely to discover that these sites involve game file sharing from a random pool of users. Anyone can upload whatever file they choose, with little checking or monitoring. This causes all kinds of issues, including viruses, spyware, and other harmful computer infections. You might also find that when you open a file, it's not the game you were looking for, or the file ends up being corrupted in some way.

Save yourself a lot of time and trouble and avoid these sites.
Nintendo Wii Game

The best way to download Wii games is to join a membership only site. Specialized web sites allow you unlimited game downloads once you sign on and register for a membership.

The advantage to these sites is that their owners have a stake in keeping customers happy, so they ensure that games work, download fast, and are clean and free of viruses and other infections.

Nintendo Wii Game
While the cost for a membership can vary from site to site, you'll probably be charged about $50. But, this is a charge that you pay only once, and then you have full lifetime access to the members-only area. You will be able to download an unlimited number of games as often as you like.

One small warning: some websites charge you for each game downloaded. The main reason I advise against joining these sites is because you can get the same services by paying just one time for a full lifetime membership elsewhere.

In case you're concerned about not knowing how to use your games once you've downloaded them from the internet, rest assured that these membership websites will provide a detailed tutorial for making the games work on your Wii. You will receive the specialized software necessary for putting the games on your system.
Nintendo Wii Game

The best membership websites will offer a money back guarantee - you can try the service and see how it works for you without fear of losing your money. But, like we said, downloading Wii games is extremely habit forming. You might not be able to stop!

How to Copy XBOX Games The Easy Way
copy xbox games

Kids and adults who are xbox fans are looking for ways to copy their own games. The same question has been frequently raised since this popular game system was released.

This article will discuss the topic of how Xbox games can be copied for back up. But There is something that needs to be cleared before discussing it though.

This article is written to help people with an Xbox to know how to copy their games for protection purposes in case the original CDs get damaged or stolen. This is not to encourage them to make copies for illegal purposes.

To begin with the instructions, first, let me tell you that this is extremely simple. You don't have to research all sorts of technical jargon to be able to understand it. You can easily follow the simple instructions.
copy xbox games

Perhaps you are one of those who have asked why the software used for CD burning is not working with the computer for copying games.

The reason is that the program for copying Xbox games needs to have an advanced technology behind it.

All games are encrypted with protection which the computer cannot read on its own. You have to install a program to enable the computer to read it and copy it afterwards.

Some computers have built-in programs that can read and burn other CDs but these won't work for Xbox games. After installing a software program intended for copying the games, it will enable the computer to get past the protection and read the game discs which makes copying possible.

The software is easy and comfortable to use. Just install it in your computer, put in the game, copy it in your hard drive, insert a blank CD or DVD, and wait for several minutes as the computer automatically transfers the data of the game onto your backup disc.
copy xbox games

I may sound exaggerated with its simplicity but this is all that you have to do to make it work! Even kids can do it on their own without adult supervision.

You only have to be aware of the possibility that some suppliers will overcharge you for this software - I've seen it priced as high as $119. Trust me - Having a higher price does not mean it's a more advanced program! The top game copying software is a fraction of this cost (around $35-40).

To fully enjoy your Xbox games, install this program and get a back up copy of your games so you ensure that you won't lose or damage your disc.

XBox 360
Purchased for my 13 yo twin boys. They love it and have played endless amount of hours on it already!!

Xbox 360 a big hit!
We've had this unit for one month now and so far so good! The Xbox 360 shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition. It's not exactly plug and play to set up- it is a somewhat lengthy process which may take up to 2 hours if you download the "updates" that are needed right out of the box when you join Xbox live. Joining Xbox live is the complex part of the process, but once you get that together, it's pretty impressive how well the system has integrated a gaming platform with computer access to the internet. My son is 10. He loves that it is so easy to interact with other kids. The headset that comes with the unit works well and doesn't need to be upgraded- unless you just want to. I was concerned about the red ring of death problem that others with older versions of the Xbox have had, but I've been assured that with the addition of the latest chip set, the overheating problem has been resolved.Xbox 360 Pro Holiday We'll see. I got the 2 yr. warranty just in case. Hopefully we won't need to use it.

Gears of War 2 Limited Edition

Yeah, it makes the cut... no pun intended.
If you've played the first one and liked it, you'll love this one. It's got pretty much the same controls, so no learning curve which is great. It does have lots more cutting, gutting and blasting than the first though, so you've got plenty to look forward to.

Gears 2, also has better content controls. You can turn the strong language off, without having to get rid of all the gore and glory that comes with cutting down a locust with your chainsaw. This game deserves every bit of its M rating. It's also a better shooter than any of the Halo games, and I love Halo... just thought I'd add that.

INCREDIBLE!
GOW2 took everything that was good about the first one and made it great. The campaign has an awesome story that grabs a hold and doesn't let go. The action in this game is intense and unyielding. I will say that after you beet the campaign, make sure you sit through the credits, there is a little thing at the very end that may set up a 3rd game, it is a great twist. The inclusion of the new multi-player mode Hoard is alot of fun to play, and at times may seam simply impossible to get past wave after wave. The only problem I have ever had is that the multi-player sometimes takes a long time to find people to play and then will occasionally drop a game in the middle because of networking problems. this is only occasionally though. Overall a must have game and contender for Game of the Year.

Gears of War 2 Limited Edition

Pretty sweet.
It's like the original. Pretty fun, really brutal. Not recommended for kids.

The limited edition version is awesome, with a nice metal case and a picture book. I haven't watched the DVD yet but it's probably pretty cool.
The picture of Dom and his wife (or girlfriend?) is a nice touch.

A MUST PLAY
Whatever you do don't listen to these long-winded baby gamers who have no idea what a real game is. Fable 2 is an awesome game! Now thats not to say that there aren't some flaws, every game has them. I do think that the storyline could have been developed more, but there are so many secrets in this game it's impossible to find them all the first time around. I've beat the game 3 times and i've found new things each time. Also after you have beat the game and the credits have run completely through the gameplay continues and some quest only appear after you beat the game. This game is BIGGER than you know. So for all these wannabe whiner babies complaining about this game sell your 360 go buy a v-tech and leave the real gaming to the BIG KIDS!
FABLE 2 is GREAT! I totally reccomend it.

PlayStation 3 80GB

WARNING READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY
After talking to people, reading reviews, and having my PS2 breakdown I decided to get the PS3. After plugging it in and connecting to my wireless router i received a message to download an update. After doing so i could not reconnect to my router. After over an hour and a half on the phone with their tech support i gave up and figured it out on my own. I had to manually enter the IP and all the DSN addresses as well as my WEP security in order to get back on line and sign up for their network. IT is mind boggling to me that Sony stopped making these reverse compatible with PS2 games. First you needed better than the 40gb version to play ps2. Now even with the 80gb, you still CAN NOT PLAY your PS2 games however you can play PS1. ??? Are you kidding? This is clearly a move by playstation to get even more money from loyal customers. Had this been clear to me....I would have picked up a used PS2 and gotten a Wii and all kinds of games and accessories for the price i paid for the PS3. As for the other features, Blue Ray is nice but additional cables for 30 or more dollars are needed to get that quality to the TV. All all i am not that crazy about plunking down all this money for a system that can't play any of the dozens of ps2 games not to mention Guitar Hero World Tour accessories that are not compatible even if the software was.

PlayStation 3 80GB

Very Robust!!!
First I have to admit that I am new to the Sony consoles. So with that, you will understand that this review will not contain complaints of backward compatibility (or lack thereof). While I do understand those complaints, I just do not have them because I never owned a Sony game unit.

Okay, that out the way...What my family enjoys most about this is how the Playstation Network is soooo fun to play. You can play bowling, pool, and countless other games all with folks you don't even know. Just "walk up to them," (how'd ya like to join me in a game o' pool?) and go for what you know (pretty cool).

Graphics-Graphics-Graphics. Sometimes my wife and I wonder if we are looking at a digital photo or a video game (see Gran Turismo 5). If you have a television with HDMI ports AND you love video games, then this is the gaming console for you!

PlayStation 3 80GB

We purchased the BD remote for Blu-Ray Disc playback functionality, and fell with love with this thing even more.

All gaming systems (pc, wii, and 360) have their pluses and minuses, but out of all of them the Playstation to me stands out because it is a gaming console, but has so much more you can do than JUST play video games with it.

The price is high (both for the console & some games/accessories), but for all it does and can accomplish for you, I have to say it is worth it in the end.

3 week Review
Not sure if I can add something which others have not stated already. I got my item in the time frame they mentioned. It was in good condition although I was a bit underwhelmed by the packaging(i.e. the retail , not speaking about amazon box) The console is heavier than it looks and is fairly wide at its highest curve.
I could not fix it in my pretty thin slot cabinet. Works perfectly well as of now, have been using it mostly for watching Blu-Ray movies, though did buy Heavenly Sword and Uncharted Drakes Fortune games(exclusive to PS3). I also own a 360 which gets most of my gaming time(gamerscore is the reason I go to it,almost exclusively). You also get Home with it(requires an Internet connection to download and use), though I am not a big fan tbh.

PlayStation 3 80GB

Since it uses bluetooth to connect to its controller and pretty much anything else(includes keyboard and mouse)your normal universal remotes wont work with it which is its biggest con I guess. Also, the on screen menu for watching movies is really bad(tiny icons & text describing them is not with the icon itself).

Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2009

very frustrating and disappointing
I LOVE Jillian Michaels and was so excited to purchase this. I should have done more research and read the reviews. I am very dissapointed. I thought it was more of a Fitness workout, but it more like a game. I work out five times a week and this didn't even get my heart rate up on the running part. I also had the same problem that others had with the game not recognizing my motions. At one point in the log roll, the avatar just moved by itself. I also did not like how few customizable options there are for avatars. I get a better workout from my 4 year old's "Outdoor Challenge" game (which is a blast by the way!!).

Horrible, so disappointed.
I was so excited about this game, I pre-ordered it. I haven't a chance to work with it until today. Oh God, this makes Wii Fitness look like genius. I gave this thing a half hour and I give up. It wins.

There are no instructions. You don't need them on a well-designed game. After poking randomly trying to get it to advance, I finally did some of the "training." The response is so ridiculously slow, you don't know if it's registering anything. Some of the exercises tell you to extend your hands and arms completely apart while holding the controller and nunchuk. Yeah,m aybe if you're under 4 feet tall. The cord's not long enough!

I gave up in total frustration with the grenade throwing exercise. I never got a single response out of the controller when attempting to throw the grenade. All the while, Jillian Michaels is telling me how wonderfully I'm doing.

What a shame. She should invest time in a decent game and give us all a free one for shelling out money for this piece of crap.

Very Bad!
I do not recommend this game at all; bought it on a whim and I agree with others. Graphics, versatility, and exercises are all very poor.

Fallout 3 games

Fallout 3 games

great role playing game
I watched my 18 year old son play this game and didn't care for the drab colors and depressing topic. Then I started my own game. It is a great game. I have never been disappointed with bethesdas games. I think it will take me a year of playing to do it all. It has lot and lots of side stories. The bad guys I shoot bleed. I don't like having people bleed when I shoot them. In some games you can change that setting. I don't think you can in this game. but it isn't too gross. There is more swearing than I want to hear. But since I can turn off the sound, I don't have to hear it. This game is intended for older kids, like 18 or older. Wouldn't it be nice if they had a Teen version of the game. I would enjoy that more. My sons would be just as happy with it.

Fallout 3 games

Great Game...
I love this game. It is like Oblivion yes, but with guns. I love the fact that my follower from Underworld doesn't need constant protecting. With any game this huge there will be some glitching, but it is a great buy and very fun. The game is deep and worth the money. Try it out.

Well worth the price!
I'll start by saying that I wasn't a fan of the game Morrowind, which is the only one I played from that series. I like some RPG's, but don't really care for all the running around, looking here and there, and making mistakes in leveling up a character.
This Fallout 3 was quite a surprise. I rented it first to see how it would be. It started out pretty slow and I had my doubts through the initial part of the game. I kept trying to decide if this would be a game I could really get into, and six hours later, after straight playing, I decided to take the game straight back to the rental place and by a copy.
This is the deepest, most involved game I've ever played. The best part is after exhausting playing as a good character, I can replay the whole thing as an evil sort and the quests will turn out differently. Fallout 3 games
Most of the quests are cool, the main story line is good and the weapons are great.
There are not many mistakes that can be made leveling up, nothing that cannot be fixed later. Sure there are better choices that would have made it easier, but nothing to the point of having to restart to be able to get out of the first level alive.
As with these types of games, you can save anywhere you feel the need, which is handy after walking a great distance. Once you discover a certain new area, you'll be able to fast travel to and from there.
Like I said, I've never played a game so involved with this much action. As long as you don't completely finish the main quest, you'll be able to go around doing all sorts of things, many miscellaneous quests to get into. Well worth the full new price, and I cannot say that about many 360 games today.
One of my favorite things is being able to switch from third to first person easily. I prefer 3rd person viewing for the most part, but during some battles first person is nice. It's just nice to have the option. In that vein, the VATS system is pretty cool.
This place is huge, and you can go just about anywhere you want, save mountainous piles of rubble. Fallout 3 games
You can kill anything and anyone, with the exception of children. This seems to be the only morality forced on you in this game. I've been playing a good character, but occasionally I'll save and kill off a few key characters just to see what happens, then reload.
Like some other reviewers, this game really pulled me in and time will just slip away thinking I'll just go a little farther, just a little more, like a junkie.
