The Gold Guide-Wines of Veronelli is probably the most important title of all production of Veronelli. Certainly has historically been the first critical review of quality Italian wines, becoming the reference point for all generations - young and old - producers, distributors and consumers of fine Italian wine, the wine that, thanks to Gino has now made great and famous all over the world.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - A new app is part of the next generation of Quantified Self Technology that helps people keep track of their own bodies. iDry 1.1.3 is a newly released iPhone and iPad app that meets the needs of the 200 million people worldwide suffering from urinary incontinence. It provides them with tools to help them overcome this disorder. It also offers valuable information to physicians to enhance treatment, and provides urology researchers with a comprehensive database of UI activity, interventions and results.

The free iDry App was developed by Jeff Pepper, founder of Three Ten LLC in Oakmont, PA, to help people overcome urinary incontinence by easily logging events, tracking progress, predicting future success, identifying factors that affect UI and sharing progress with their doctor.

"iDry gives you an incredibly easy and discreet way to log your UI events when they occur - just a few seconds every time you change a pad or diaper," says Pepper. "Then, iDry uses your log data and its built-in database of hundreds of pad and diaper brands to show you in detail the progress you are making in overcoming your UI, including the date when, if trends continue, you will be completely dry."

The iDry app is available for free through the iPhone App Store.
iDry also shows exactly how the individual's UI is affected by various interventions such as exercises, behaviors, diets, drugs, devices, and medical procedures. "This app is part of the next generation of quantified self technology helping people keep track of their own bodies, analyzing results and making recommendations," says Pepper.

The free version gives users all the logging, reporting, forecasting and research tools they need. Upgrading to the premium version unlocks iDry's advanced features which allows you to:

* Create your own interventions
* Create your own pad types
* Email charts and log data to your doctor
* Get reminders to do Kegel exercises or anything else you like
* Access to advanced charts including "Pad Changes by Hour," "Progress by Pads Used" and "Weekly Detail"

iDry was developed with the assistance of the National Institute on Aging of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and with input from the Department of Urology at a major university.

Early reviews are encouraging, says Pepper. According to Julie Grifin of HealthTech Zone magazine, "If anything, among the sea of useless apps, iDry is a beacon of purpose."

Traders Get Their First Real App - Published on 12/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Traders get their first real app with Tradeology 1.0 for iOS. Some would say that it has been long overdue. People can get an app for just about anything these days, but there is a small group of overlooked people who more than most need to have information at their fingertips...these are active traders, especially Forex traders. Tradeology group updates the trading community with the latest happenings from around the world that could potentially affect the markets.

Glasgow, United Kingdom - Traders get their first real app with Tradeology 1.0 for iOS. Some would say that it has been long overdue. You can get an App for just about anything these days, but there is a small group of overlooked people who more than most need to have information at their fingertipps...these are active traders, especially Forex traders.

I'm not talking about the kind of trader who owns a few stocks and is mildly interested in what the stock market is doing, or how the main indexes are fairing. I'm talking about professional and part time traders who need to cut through the mountain of information and get to the guts of what's moving the market today. This group of traders can trade all day long and need specific information, not general news.

A young enterprising group of traders have combined under the banner of Tradeology online to bring up-to-date, news, analysis and trading signals for active traders.

Every day, the Tradeology group updates the trading community with the latest happenings from around the world that could potentially affect the markets. Virtually every day, there is some kind of economic release that traders need to know about. And this is where Tradology is slightly different. Not all new is important, not all economic releases are important and not all world events move the markets. Active trades just need to know important information that can help them make decisions.

Perhaps the most interesting information they release every day is the trading signals provided by professional traders. These are guys who live and breathe trading and know exactly what's happening minute to minute. With this new app, not only can you keep up to date with the core market information, you can also learn from the trades the pros make.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 1.9 MB

Totmob Releases Bubblaze - One small bubble in a dangerous maze world - Published on 12/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Totmob today introduces Bubblaze 1.0, its new underwater maze game for iOS and Android. In Bubblaze you have to navigate mazes that get ever more complex while avoiding various dangerous obstacles. Bob the bubble has a happy little face, and changes expression in an amusing way when he bumps into obstacles and edges in the mazes. There are 12 free levels that range from easy to very challenging and 8 paid levels that will provide hours of entertainment.

Rio De Janeiro, Brazil - Totmob, a division of Kinetics, has announced the release of its Bubblaze mobile game for iOS and Android. The game, which is available for iOS and Android tablet devices and smart phones, was launched on iTunes and Google Play earlier today. In Bubblaze you have to navigate mazes that get ever more complex while avoiding various dangerous obstacles. There are 12 free levels that range from easy to very challenging and 8 paid levels that will provide hours of entertainment.

"Our team put a lot of effort into realistic bubble behaviour," said Orlando Shorter, Founder of Kinetics and Totmob. "We hope that a fresh take on the traditional maze game will provide casual gamers with some great entertainment."

Visual treatment:
Everything in the game is underwater or bubble themed. The menu options are in the shape of bubbles that pop in a satisfying way when tapped. Bob the bubble has a happy little face, and changes expression in an amusing way when he bumps into obstacles and edges in the mazes. If you happen to pop him, he dissapears in a flush of bubbles that's not overdramatic. The maze has a transparent glassy high gloss feel that's very pleasant and high tech.

Sound effects:
The game has a soundscape that is underwater themed. The sounds range from bubbles to more unusual pops and echos. To complement this soundscape, a theme tune was composed that's a perfect fit. It has an understated melody with quirky sounds that adds to the overall experience.

Gameplay:
Initially the gameplay is simple enough. Bob the Bubble enters the maze, and you have to navigate him all the way to the exit. A little maze map at the bottom right of the screen helps you see where you need to go, as it's not always obvious. As you move beyond the initial maze levels, obstacles start showing up, that will make things dangerous for Bob. Large spikes can pop him; directional barbs will only let him pass one way. Some doors require good timing, in other cases you need to activate the door to open it. Finally there are the bottlenecks, that need to be passed at speed, and for this you need to switch on the turbines that will push you through.

Feature Highlights:
* Casual game
* Simple Gameplay
* 12 free levels, 8 extra levels for $0.99
* Amusing sounds
* Tidy visuals
* Ages 5 and upwards
* For tablets and smartphones

Device Requirements:

* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices

Android:

Cool Fraction Games for Kids: 4 Dice is a Math App for Middle School - Published on 12/11/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Math File Folder Games introduces 4 Dice: Fraction Games 1.0 for iOS. Targeting upper elementary and middle school students, this app lets students solve mathematical problems involving fractions in a fun and engaging way. Using an archery-themed target number, the user is given four dice to drag into spaces in the numerator and denominator of two fractions, for four different types of equations: addition, subtraction, multiplication or division.

Magrath, Canada - Fractions are a learning sore spot for many students. Learning them thoroughly is important for math proficiency from upper-elementary school all the way through college. To that end, a iPad/iPhone app that turns fractions into a fun, engaging experience would be helpful to parents and teachers that want to see progress in their students' math education. 4 Dice: Fraction Games 1.0 is such an application.

About 4 Dice: Fraction Games:
4 Dice uses a "start at the end" approach to help students construct fraction equations. Using an archery-themed target number, the user is given four dice to drag into spaces in the numerator and denominator of two fractions. The type of equation (addition, subtraction, multiplication or division) is determined by the student. When the player is satisfied with the equation they created, an arrow is "shot" at the target to see if it "hits." The program then displays the math steps for performing the equation, such as finding common denominators, and the result.

When a student feels up for a real challenge, 'Challenge Mode' requires the player to select the math symbol used in the equation in addition to the placement of numbers in the formula.

The application also supports multiple users. If one student needs to focus on subtracting fractions, while another is working on multiplying fractions, each student's progress can be separately maintained. The Scores section, accessed from the main screen, tallies each user's "hit and miss" percentage.

A whiteboard feature provides simulated scratch paper to enable the learner to work through the problems. Progress reports are sent to the email address, providing an opportunity to record improvement. Free printable worksheets are available for teachers to present learning to a classroom of students.

This game creates a fun environment to learn or refresh fraction skills. The intuitive interface makes jumping in to play a breeze, and the instructions contain tips if you forget how to perform the math. Th gameplay forces the student to slow down and look at the steps required to attain the correct answer, rather than simply racing to find the answer. This method prepares a learner for what they will encounter as they continue to use fractions throughout their academic process.

Detailed at Math File Folder Games online, "4 Dice: Fraction Games" is the second math app in a series produced by Justin Holladay, a middle school teacher who believes that learning is more effective when it is fun. Math games, be it a file folder game or even an iPhone/iPad app, is an exceptional way to engage students.

When a potentially difficult subject, like fractions, can be made into a game, children (and adults) are more likely to invest themselves into learning the material. Whether adding fractions is new, or a refresher on dividing fractions is needed, 4 Dice: Fraction Games effectively makes solving fraction problems fun and challenging.

4 Dice: Fraction Games is an app that lets students solve mathematical problems involving fractions in a fun and engaging way. Targeting upper elementary and middle school students, the app is available for iPad/iPhone devices.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 3.0 or later
* 5.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
4 Dice: Fraction Games 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Chord Dictionary 1.0 for iOS - Reverse Chord Lookup from the Fretboard - Published on 12/11/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ipSoft today introduces Chord Dictionary 1.0, an iOS version of its Mac OS X app that provides reverse chord lookup from a guitar fretboard. Unlike most chord dictionaries, which provide the correct fingering for a chord, the app allows users to create their own chord and then look up its name. Ideal for musicians of any level of expertise, Chord Dictionary can figure out chord names just from notes and intervals, covers all 22 frets, and features audio playback of the note or chord selected.

Reykjavik, Iceland - ipSoft today is pleased to introduce Chord Dictionary 1.0, an iOS version of its innovative, Mac OS X, music app that provides instant reverse chord lookup from a guitar fretboard. Unlike most chord dictionaries, which allow the user to select a chord and then view the correct fingering on the fretboard, the app allows users to create their own chord and then lookup its name. An ideal reference tool for musicians of any level of expertise, Chord Dictionary can figure out chord names just from notes and intervals, and it will identify every conceivable chord on all 22 frets of the guitar and every possible note over the guitar's almost 4-octave range. The app can also be used as an interactive teaching tool, allowing musicians to learn new chords by discovering what happens when they alter a basic chord they already know. Now portable on mobile devices, the app includes audio playback of the note or chord selected, an advanced touch interface, and saving
fretboard diagrams to the Photo Library.

Feature Highlights:
* Reverse chord lookup from a guitar fretboard
* Covers all 22 frets, plus chords that are physically impossible to play
* Provides the exact name of the chord produced by any fingering
* Hear the notes and chords selected on the guitar neck
* Convenient touch interface
* Scroll to moves up or down the fretboard, while maintaining the fingering
* Save complete, titled chord diagrams to the Photo Library
* An ideal reference for musicians of every level of experience and education
* NEW iOS version makes chord lookup easy anytime, anywhere

Using Chord Dictionary is extremely simple, with black frets and fingerings on a white background. The screen displays five frets vertically and six strings horizontally in the standard representation. On the far left are the fret numbers aligned in a column next to the diagram. Users can scroll up or down one fret at a time with the vertical drag gesture. The default display is of frets 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Guitarists can move up the neck, one fret at a time, until frets 18, 19, 20, 21, and 22 are displayed. The components of the chord (root, third, fifth, seventh, etc.) are aligned horizontally at the bottom below each string. Three buttons are located at the bottom of the screen, Clear, Play, and Save. Lastly, the complete name of the chord is displayed in bold above the diagram.

With Chord Dictionary set to display frets 1 - 5, the user simply touches a string to produce a large black dot or fingering (e.g., 1st string, 3rd fret; 5th string, 2nd fret; 6th string, 3rd fret for G Major). Each touch changes the name of the chord and the components of the new chord (it is also possible to eliminate a string from the fingering). Since many chords can be played using a variety of fingerings (inversions and voicings), musicians can quickly determine if they are playing such a variant. In fact, Chord Dictionary will name every conceivable chord on the guitar neck, including those that are physically impossible to play. That means that the app knows music harmony and can figure out chord names just from notes and intervals. This capability is invaluable for students of music theory, jazz guitarists, composers, transcriptionists, and midi-programmers.

The Mac OS X version of Chord Dictionary has been a great success with musicians since it was released in May 2012. After the initial release, the app was updated, giving it the capability of actually playing the chord aloud in addition to identifying it. Having created a fingering, the Play button allows the user to hear single notes or complete chords. To include the sound of an open string in a chord, the musician can touch above the string, creating a large white dot (no fingering). Playback reproduces the sound of every string with a white or black dot, strummed downward. The professionally recorded library of individual notes, played on a classical guitar, supplies all the notes to create the selected chord. The Clear button removes all fingerings and the Save button exports the diagram to the Camera Roll.

Learning about chords from books is somewhat difficult, but Chord Dictionary offers an alternative. For example, from the G Major chord it is possible to create a large number of other G chords, such as G maj7, maj9, maj11, maj13, maj9#11, maj13#11, 6, add9, 6add9, maj7b5, maj7#5, m7, m9, m11, m13, m6, madd9, m6add9, mmaj7, mmaj9, m7b5, m7#5, 7, 9, 11, 13 7sus4, 7b5, 7#5, 7b9, 7#9, 7, aug, dim, dim7, sus4, sus2, etc. From the basic, three-finger, G Major chord (1st string/3rd fret, 5th/2nd, 6th/3rd), the musician can learn interactively the result of adding the 4th string: 1st fret (Gaug5); 2nd fret (G6); 3rd fret (G7); 4th fret (Gmaj7); 5th fret (Gmaj), etc.

"How many times have you played a chord but weren't quite sure exactly what chord it was?" asked Sigthor Hrafnsson of ipSoft. "Now with Chord Dictionary, the reverse lookup, you can be certain of the name of every chord. And this iOS version includes all the features and capabilities of the full OS X application."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad
* iOS 6 or later
* 10.2 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Chord Dictionary 1.0 for iOS is $1.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Reference category. Review copies are available on request. The Mac OS X version of Chord Dictionary is $1.99 and available through the Mac App Store.

Announcing Picnic in the Park Version 1.1 with Reduced Price Point - Published on 12/11/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Picnic in the Park brings board game enjoyment and peripheral learning to the iPad, iPhone & iPod. Players travel through a delightfully graphic park in an attempt to arrive first at the picnic grounds with a full basket of food and drink. Options allow you to customize the number of players and the game also features play versus iPad players so that it can be played solo. Great replay value, with no in-game purchasing, Picnic in the Park is the perfect game for preschoolers & younger children.

Leechburg, Pennsylvania - TJ Publsihing Company has announced the release of a new version of Picnic in the Park 1.1, their delightful and educational application for the iPad, iPhone and iPod. Aimed specifically at the pre-school/early adolescent market, the easy-to-play Picnic in the Park boasts a number of changes to improve the amount of interaction for the players, adjusts the "game board" to allow for fewer send-backs, adds much-improved Help and changes the die from pips to numerals at the suggestion of users.

For those unfamiliar with Picnic in the Park, the game allows from one to four players to compete in a race through a graphically-enhanced park, collecting food and drinks for their picnic basket and advancing to the picnic grounds in an effort to be the first to arrive!

Adding to the fun are special "Star" squares along the park's path. Land on a Star and a card is revealed, displaying something that might hinder your efforts or help them. Cards like "Rain" or "Bees" or "Hungry Bear" might make the player lose a turn or worse, one of the food or drinks he or she's collected, forcing the player to go back and replace what is lost. However, cards like "Sunshine" or "Insect Spray" or "Park Ranger" - if drawn and saved - can be used to counter bad cards and let the player skip along the path without delay!

The newly enhanced strategy feature is designed to appeal to slightly older players (ages 5-8) who want to do more than move through the park, collecting items for their picnic baskets. The new "Re-Roll" option allows each human player to use, when they choose, up FIVE re-rolls in an effort to improve their chance to win. Players can now re-roll a bad roll, re-roll in an effort to score a needed item for their picnic basket, or even save all their re-rolls for a mad dash to the picnic grounds and a win!

Notable Features Of Picnic in the Park 1.1:
* Enhanced for Retina display
* No in-game selling
* Solo or multiple player modes
* Incredible age-appropriate graphics
* Appropriate children's music that can be toggled on and off
* Lively sound effects
* Simple game play for even very young children
* New strategy option to engage older children
* Friendly game play; children cannot directly hinder other players
* Word and simple sentence recognition
* Basic 1 through 6 counting
* Auto-save play at any point in the game

Other changes include a more comprehensive HELP/Documentation section to better explain how the game plays and the many options available. The music can now be toggled on or off, while still leaving the great sound effects intact. And number recognition, one of the subtle educational perks of the game, has been enhanced by changing the pips on the die to numerals.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3/4/5 gen) and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 44.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Picnic in the Park 1.1 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.
