Persona: When Having Multiple Personalities is a Good Thing - Published on 09/06/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mariner Software releases Persona 1.0 for Mac OS, their latest app for writers, dedicated to developing the characters of a story. Built around the psychological profile of 32 archetypes, Persona reveals a character's behavior, motivation, and potential dialogue. Persona assists the writer who wants to purposely develop compelling, believable, and empathic characters for a story.
Minneapolis, Minnesota - There are many products on the market to help everyone who writes - software to help create story outlines, format screenplays, check the number of cliches used, collect research, correct spelling - the list goes on. However, if a writer wants to be proactive and deliberate in creating a strong and believable character, there are few, if any, choices.
Mariner Software, developers of award-winning Mac and Windows software products, has released Persona 1.0, a character development application for the Mac OS. Persona is based on this concept: by categorizing characters into archetypes, their backgrounds and psychological profiles can be established. Having this information at the writer's disposal, a given character's motivation becomes apparent, and then behavior and dialogue become predictable. Persona assists the writer who wants to purposely develop compelling, believable, and empathic characters for a story.
"We're always searching for opportunities to expand what we offer to writers of all types and genres," said Michael Wray, president of Mariner. "Persona is a definite asset to a writer's toolbox because it focuses exclusively on the development of the characters in a story. We're excited about adding this new app to our product line, which is going to be a great complement to all our other writing products."
Persona contains the profiles for 32 archetypes. Accompanying these profiles is a detailed description of the archetypes' background, behavior, qualities, flaws, and occupations. In addition are explanations of how these archetypes interact with each other and insight into what happens to the hero or heroine when either one becomes corrupt, turning into a villain or villainess.
Other features of Persona 1.0 enables the writer to:
* Explore relationships and interactions between characters
* Create Smart Groups of characters based on attributes like tags, type, sex, or any word or phrase
* Construct ad hoc groups of characters without a defined relationship, in order to explore interactions
* Add a character and shape the details, from eye color to hobbies or occupations
* Use the Names database, containing over 16,000 names, which features a name's origin and meaning
Pricing and Availability:
Persona 1.0 is available for sale and for trial as a download, only from the Mariner Software website, and will sell for $49.95 USD. A boxed copy, a Mac App Store version, and a Windows app, will be available in the near future. Persona 1.0 requires Mac OS 10.7 or higher. This initial version of Persona is in English only; other languages will be added at a later date. Free review copies of Persona 1.0 are available to the press.

Earthquake Buddy 1.0 for iOS - Life Matters - Published on 09/06/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The App Collective Pty Ltd introduces Earthquake Buddy 1.0, a revolutionary new iOS app developed to save 1000s of lives in an earthquake. In the event of an earthquake above 5.5 on the Richter scale, the user's buddies are instantaneously and automatically sent an email, from the cloud, showing a Google map of their location. After 30 minutes, if the user has not heard from his buddies, they can contact emergency services to alert them of their buddies' location.
Sydney, Australia - International natural disaster expert, Professor Ed Blakely, known as the "Global Recovery Tsar", said today that Earthquake Buddy, the new Australian-developed iPhone app, will save thousands of lives in the world's earthquake zones.
Blakely, the expert who led the Hurricane Katrina recovery effort, has independently thrown his weight behind Earthquake Buddy saying, "The Earthquake Buddy app's ingenuity coupled with the harnessing of community engagement makes it a revolutionary and vital new tool to find those missing or trapped after an earthquake."
Over the years, especially in second and third world countries, emergency services are delayed simply because they do not know the whereabouts of people trapped due to an earthquake. Often due to poor building standards, whole towns and cities can be razed, with thousands of people missing and feared dead.
CEO of Earthquake Buddy's developer The App Collective, Adam Wells said, "We were astonished to learn that most rescue services often don't know where to begin their search when trying to find missing victims of large earthquakes. Earthquake Buddy is designed to solve this fundamental problem by ensuring community engagement can act swiftly to find them."
Once Earthquake Buddy is downloaded, users are prompted to enter their details and details of four friends or family members to become their 'buddies'. In the event of an earthquake above 5.5 on the Richter scale, the user's buddies are instantaneously and automatically sent an email, from the cloud, showing a Google map of their location. After 30 minutes, if the user has not heard from his buddies, they can go straight to the Google map location (if safe to do so); or contact emergency services to alert them of their buddies' location.
Wells added: "Importantly, the message is designed so it will be received prior to any telecommunications outage and thus does not rely on the iPhone itself to be sent. Buddies can also receive an SMS, a Facebook post and Tweet with the same details."
The new app is designed not only for people living in earthquake zones, but also for tourists and business travellers nervous about travelling to quake prone destinations like New Zealand, Japan, West Coast USA and Asia.
Adam Wells concluded, "We are very proud that Earthquake Buddy has been endorsed by Professor Blakely. As a result we have introduced Earthquake Buddy at ground and App Store level and through world organisations who can implement their duty of care by ensuring all smartphone users can carry this app."
Earthquake Buddy is in English, with Spanish and Japanese versions launching soon and an Android version is due in the near future.
Life Matters!
Device Requirements:
* 3/4Gen iPhone, iPad, or 3/4Gen iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 3.7 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Earthquake Buddy 1.0 is $3.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category.

Choosing one of two guides, users explore the body's levels, including skin, muscles, and bones, while touring the various organs and systems.

Apple's Genius Bar Manual Not a Secret - Published on 09/07/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Daniel Milstein, Founder, President and CEO of Gold Star Mortgage Financial Group, introduces The ABC of Sales for iOS. In this sales coaching book, Milstein shares eight secrets for consistently reaching high sales levels and lays out in clearly understandable language what it takes to be a Sales Superstar. Like Apple's secret sales manual, The Genius Bar Manual, that was revealed this week by Gizmodo, the ABC of Sales helps Mac and iOS developers understand effective sales techniques.
Ann Arbor, Michigan - Daniel Milstein, founder Founder, President and CEO of Gold Star Mortgage Financial Group, is pleased to introduce The ABC of Sales for iOS. In this sales coaching book, Milstein shares eight secrets for consistently reaching high sales levels and lays out in clearly understandable language what it takes to be a Sales Superstar. Like Apple's secret sales manual, The Genius Bar Manual, that was revealed this week by Gizmodo, the ABC of Sales helps Mac and iOS developers understand effective sales techniques.
The unauthorized release this week of Apple Corporation's previously secret sales and employee training manual has created quite a buzz in the business world, especially amongst sales professionals.
The Genius Bar Manual includes sales coaching and top sales secrets that have helped propel Apple Corporation past Microsoft as the number one business in America.
The contents of Apple's secret sales manual was seized and revealed this week by Gizmodo. At the very least it appears to be useful to Mac and iOS developers to help them understand the mindset of Apple management.
"I understand why sales professionals are excited about Apple's secret sales manual and why everyone wants to get their hands on a copy," said Dan Milstein, chief executive officer of Gold Star Mortgage Financial Group in Ann Arbor and author of The ABC of Sales. "While some advice you find there is useful, the bottom line is that you will be on the road to sales stardom when you apply what you learn in The ABC of Sales."
One of the nation's top salesmen, Dan Milstein's sales coaching book contains his top secrets to sales success. Milstein not only shared his techniques with his employees, they're also revealed in The ABC of Sales. His book surpassed the 10,000 mark in sales to become the #1 Sales Book on Amazon and the 31st top seller of all Kindle book sales.
Milstein has been recognized as the #1 mortgage originator in the nation, has been among the top 40 finance professionals in America for 10 years, and has achieved more than $3 billion in personal career mortgage sales.
Among the gems in The ABC of Sales is Milstein's list of secrets: "Be passionate about sales, believe in your product, take care of customers, plan ahead, be available, expand your presence, be a creative marketer, have a positive outlook and take risks. That's what you need to get started and enjoy your first level of success."
"ABC-- Always Be Closing --is one of my favorite phrases," says Milstein. "It is a motto I live by and is one of the prime reasons I have been successful as a sales professional. I never turn off my selling mindset; I'm always ready to engage a friend, colleague, or stranger in conversations that will lead to a sale."
In the book Milstein shares eight secrets for consistently reaching high sales levels and lays out in clearly understandable language what it takes to be a Sales Superstar. For more information about Gold Star Mortgage Financial Group, vist the ABC of Slaes website.
Says Milstein, "Whether you are selling apps, loans, computers or iPads the basic sales techniques are the same," people want to buy something they want and need from someone they trust. It's your job as a salesperson to fill the need and gain their trust."
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Kids take Storm on a ride and by spotting obstacles while speed increases and scenery changes and by jumping above them, they can improve their hand/eye coordination. As any other game out there, it should be fun. And what's more rewarding than eating your favorite vegetable and earning trophies?
By collecting carrots and ridding further, Storm's speed increases, making it more and more difficult to stay in the game. The hay stacks that are collected along the way are used to improve Storm's riding and jumping skills thus making it easier to stay in the game. Hay stacks are also available as in app purchases to make it easier to improve Storms riding and jumping skills.
Connected to Game Center, you can compare your score to the score of your friends and to other players that ride Storm. Ride & Jump Derby is played in an endless story mode.The game last as long as you ride Storm and avoid the obstacles. We recommend to pay close attention to the nasty eagle that appears from time to time. he tends to do it when you least expect it. You will not be able to put it aside.

Wonderlines from Nevosoft Now Available on App Store for iPhone and iPad - Published on 09/07/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Nevosoft, a top Russian casual game developer, announces the release of Wonderlines 1.1, a match-three game for iPhone and iPad. Players match balls to destroy them over a selection of tiles. The game features 70 unique levels and three challenging game modes: action, puzzle and Zen Designed with relaxing backgrounds, the game features trees and grass swaying gently in the warm sea breeze, water flowing through small streams into picturesque lagoons, and ancient vine-covered ruins.
St. Petersburg, Russian Federation - The first thing you'll notice when you play Wonderlines is the fantastic backgrounds. Trees and grass sway gently in the warm sea breeze, water flows through small streams and into picturesque lagoons, and ancient vine-covered ruins dot the landscape. The designers put so much time and effort into making the beautiful landscapes that they included a game feature that pauses the game just so you can sit and observe the varied sights of the island.
There are three game modes in this magic kingdom: action, puzzle and Zen. All three modes are different and yet equally challenging. In action mode you'll be matching balls to destroy blocks under them, and in the other two modes you'll just be matching whatever you can. You'll rarely be stumped for more than a few seconds because the game generously gives you a number of power-ups to help clear the board, including diamond balls and a hammer. First, the game may seem simple to you, but as you proceed from one level or stage to another you have to devise intricate ways of handling the increasingly challenging situation. Each of the game's 70 levels are original and unique.
The creators of Wonderlines developed an utterly new system of bonuses. Having scored enough points, you can get a miraculous multicolored ball, a dazzling diamond, a hammer, triple or quadruple bombs and other bonuses, which significantly shorten your path to victory. When making a match with a dazzling diamond, for instance, it will destroy all the balls of that particular color on the board. You can use the hammer every so often to destroy a particularly irritating ball that's blocking you. All you have to do is just to match it in a line of any color.
When playing you can choose the time of day: night, day or early morning. The gentle calming music is accompanied by magnificent sceneries of waterfalls, evergreen trees and grandiose mountains. The setting, familiar gameplay, and pleasant music all blend together to create an experience engineered to soothe your nerves and put you in a warm, happy mood.
Feature Highlights:
* Fun and relaxing gameplay
* Superb backgrounds
* Three game modes: puzzle, action, and Zen
* 70 levels and 6 power-ups
* Gentle calming music
Language Support:
English, French, German, Russian
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 3.2 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 17.5 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Wonderlines: match-3 puzzle game 1.1 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

Children will enjoy Lingo Zoo, Tap a Tune, Jellytoons Toddler Skills and Jack and the Beanstalk.
Both the Magic Town app for iPad and the website are designed for children aged 2 to 6 years old. Children can read and play either independently or with an adult. There are more than 100 stories, or �Livebooks,� to choose from. And since the app�s June debut, children from more than 180 countries have read hundreds of thousands of Livebooks.
The updated Magic Town app maximizes the iPad�s technical capabilities. When children visit the home page, they can �build� their own version of the town by dragging and dropping the characters� houses on the landscape. Parents will also enjoy the enhanced Bookshop where they can browse all of the Livebooks and watch preview videos.
Mindshapes created the Livebook format in close collaboration with child development experts including Professor Paul Harris at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. The Livebook format is designed to use storytelling to stimulate children�s imagination, reasoning, social skills and language development.
The other Mindshapes apps are also educational. Tap a Tune teaches toddlers music appreciation. Jellytoons focuses on toddler skills like counting and shape and color recognition. Lingo Zoo demonstrates animal names in Spanish and English. And Jack and the Beanstalk is the classic tale with a modern twist.
Chris Michaels, Managing Director, Magic Town: �It�s been so exciting to see children around the world read and play in Magic Town. Magic Town is the perfect way for children to enjoy story time and develop the habit of reading every day. The Magic Town iPad app update comes just in time for the start of the new school year.�

Dejal announces BlogAssist 2.4; handy HTML markup tool - Published on 09/07/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Portland based Dejal Systems, LLC today announces BlogAssist 2.4, an update to its handy tool to help weblog and website editing by making HTML markup easier. BlogAssist can be accessed via a system menu, the Services menu, or a floating window. The app comes with several useful operations, including web and e-mail links, bold/italics/strikethrough/etc, LiveJournal tags, and more. This release includes new Substitutions preferences, Mountain Lion compatibility, and changed system requirements.
Portland, Oregon - Dejal Systems, LLC today is proud to announce the immediate availability of Dejal BlogAssist 2.4, a handy tool to help weblog and website editing by making HTML markup easier. There are three easy ways to use it: you can use whichever one you prefer, or all three as desired.
* The System Menu: BlogAssist adds a small menu to the right-hand side of the menubar in all applications. You can simply select and copy some text into the clipboard, choose a suitable operation from the menu, then paste the result in the desired location. The text will have been transformed like magic. For example, copying hey and choosing Bold will result in hey - the HTML tags for boldface text, wrapped around the original text.
* The Services Menu: BlogAssist also appears in the Services menu, available in most applications. This is really easy to use: just select some text and hit Cmd-< to display a small panel. Simply choose an operation and click OK to drop the marked up text back into your document. The previously copied text also appears in the panel; useful for operations like Web Link that use two values. Copy a URL, select text to use as the link label, hit Cmd-< and choose the operation, then click OK, and you have a web link nicely formatted and inserted.
* The Floating Window: This is similar to the Services menu panel, but can be left open as long as you like. It floats above all other windows, alwaywa available. It can be hidden and shown via the BlogAssist system menu. With the floating window displayed, you simply drag text to one or both of its Value fields, choose an operation from the included pop-up menu, then drag the formatted HTML from the Result field. Like the Services panel, this window includes a convenient preview of how the HTML will be rendered in a web page.
BlogAssist comes with several useful operations, including web and e-mail links, bold/italics/strikethrough/etc, LiveJournal tags, and more. But you aren't limited to those - you can add, change, or remove them via the Operations Preferences.
This release includes new Substitutions preferences that can replace accented or special characters with the corresponding HTML entities, remove your domain from URLs (to use local paths), or other substitutions. It also includes changes for Mountain Lion, including a new approach to starting on login, support for Gatekeeper (Developer ID), and sandboxing, and now requires a minimum of Lion and a 64-bit Mac.
Language Support:
* US English, French and German
Minimum Requirements:
* OS X version 10.7 or later (Mountain Lion-ready)
* 64-bit Intel Mac
* 2 MB disk space
Pricing and Availability:
Dejal BlogAssist 2.4 is normally $9.00 USD, with household and site licenses also available. A full-featured demo is available. This is a free update for licensed BlogAssist users. It is also available on the Mac App Store.
