Blackbar review: a text-based adventure that is missing the text

Posted: 31 Aug 2013 09:00 AM PDT

Blackbar 3

You type, "Get ye flask." The game responds, "You cannot get ye flask." Sound familiar? Then you know a little something about old school text-based adventures. It was always so difficult to figure out the correct way to type an action.

Blackbar is a text-based story that requires a similar activity. Only, instead of trying to command the character to perform an action, you must find the correct word to fill in the blank…(...)

Galileo is a multipurpose remote motion stand for iPhone

Posted: 31 Aug 2013 08:30 AM PDT

Motrr Galileo + Sphere 3A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a review of the photography app Sphere (formerly TourWrist). After reading the review, the app's developer sent me Motrr's new photography mount, Galileo, which is a perfect accessory to the 360-photography app.

Motrr's new spherical recording device made the front pages when its Kickstarter campaign went supernova and made seven times its original goal. The Galileo is currently shipping to Kickstarter pledgers and Motrr is taking preorders for the device for a mid-October launch.

In addition to being a spherical recording device that fits perfectly with Sphere, Motrr's Galileo is an iOS-controlled remote motion stand for the iPhone and iPod touch. The device features 360-degree spherical rotation capability and lets users take pictures or view streaming video using pan-and-tilt speeds of up to 200 degrees per second. Set up your iPhone with Galileo and use another iOS device to control it by swiping your finger on the screen to move the angle in any direction you like. This multipurpose stand lets you use your iPhone for video conferencing, baby monitoring, and more…(...)

I have an older Canon Digital Rebel SLR EOS 300D. Really, hardly out of diapers, but my iMac doesn't think so. In fact, the chip for the Rebel won't fit into the iMac slot.
Is there anything I can do to get photos?
Thanks,
Carol

Digital camera are "out of diapers" by about 3-4 months. This model is 10 years old, and even (most) people are out of diapers by then.

And in 2003, Compact Flash cards were quite common in cameras.

Get a USB compact flash card reader.

Sure - get a card reader with multiple inputs.

Here's an Amazon page with a few: <http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_17?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=digital+card+reader&sprefix=digital+card+read%2Caps%2C274>

Here's one of them, specifically, because it's likely to read your card, and the price is right. <http://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Pocket-Memory-Reader-GFR209/dp/B001AW8W7A/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1377909056&sr=1-3&keywords=digital+card+reader>

Others have suggested a card reader, since no iMac has ever come with a CF card slot.

How about some free possibilites?

Have you tried the USB cable that comes with the camera?
Or the manual?

I bought a Transcend M3 a few years ago. Very compact, fast, reads
anything, inexpensive, and uses a detachable USB cable that also fits my
Ixus camera. This one looks like the current equivalent.

Notorious Pirates Unite in Pursuit of Dreams and Passions - Published on 08/30/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Toivon Studio's today announces the upcoming release of Kingdom of Pirates, an update to its iOS MMORPG that hit the App Store this month. Kingdom of Pirates is a multiplayer iOS game that offers tons of crazy fun activities for players to partake in when they are out of rum. The biggest of these activities, Open Waters, contains a shipload of sword-swingin&#39; excitement. The mobile game release brings the world's most notorious pirates to life. It is a spin on the story of Sir Francis Drake.

Shanghai, China - The excitement is arousing in anticipation of Toivon Studio's upcoming update of Kingdom of Pirates - an iOS MMORPG that hit the App Store this month. So soon after the release of version 1.1, another immediate update will be available in the near future. Kingdom of Pirates offers an intriguing storyline, exciting gameplay and innovative ways of multiplayer interaction. The core of the story is the pursuit of Captain Drake's lost treasures. This legendary captain has vanished without a trace, and the world's most notorious pirates have united for an adventurous journey to recover his riches.

Bold notorious pirates have sailed off to seek their dreams - infamy, glory, vengeance, and adventure. The stories of those infamous pirates have become legends. Locke the Caster longs to be notorious. Players start off with him as the first member of their crew. He is a brave adventurer, who used to be Captain Drake's most loyal hand. He feels obliged to recover the Captain's lost treasures. Tate the Furious is looking for glory. When he was young, Vikings worshiped him for his courage. As time went on, everyone forgot about him. He longs to enter a battle and retain his former glory.

Cameron the Vengeful yearns for revenge. He was picked up alongside a river by an Indian chief when he was a kid. After training for many years, he finally became a chief himself. He swore he would protect his home forever, but Spanish explorers had destroyed his home and also kidnapped his wife. The strong desire for revenge makes him determined. Mary the Fiery is the first woman to join the crew. She lived an ordinary life as the wife of a naval officer, but constantly yearned for adventure. One day, she snuck off and joined the crew. Mary is extremely beautiful. In order to get her to join the group, players need to gamble in the Tavern.

For some other pirates, however, misfortune is the one who brought them to the pursuit of Captain Drake's lost treasure. One-Eye the Slasher, for example, was a well-known pirate and has stolen much treasure over the course of his life. Unfortunately, he upset other pirates so much that he was forced to flee to a mysterious island. Evans the Summoner used to be the most famous pirate in the Caribbean. He has a habit of getting himself into trouble frequently. He lost his ship after being betrayed by his friends and was forced to join the group.

Pirates are free men who love adventure. Many pursue their dreams with passion. In Kingdom of Pirates, Ruffins the Bomber; is a merchant who loves to study new technology. He aims to make the most powerful weapon in the world. He joined the group to seek out a blueprint that is rumored to be hidden in Captain Drake's treasure.

All this is only one part of the exciting storyline of Kingdom of Pirates. Not to mention the wonderfully animated battles and treasure maps, and the different innovative ways of multiplayer interaction, such as the Pirate Tourney, the guilds system or the PVP option for pillaging other players.

Moscow, Russia - Five Star Games, an emerging mobile application and games developer, is excited today to announce the launch of Perfect Hit! onto the App Store and Google Play. Universally compatible across iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and Android devices, this wildly dynamic 3D "aim & flick" romp challenges gamers to bust objects - set up in various clever formations - from tabletops using as little balls as they can level after level!

The game setup is eloquently simple as a whole, a lot like bowling in theory but with an added dimension or two, and exploding balls, and dynamite among other things. The less balls players use to beat each level the higher their score ends up being, and with an engaging "3 Pineapple" scoring system gamers are motivated to not just beat every level, but completely demolish it! With two hundred levels spread across five wildly different in-game worlds that translates to hours and hours of intense gameplay. Combined with dozens of unlockable achievements for gamers to strive towards it's easy to see exactly how vast and immersive Perfect Hit! is as a mobile gaming experience.

Boasting a powerful 3D physics engine and eye-popping graphics, Perfect Hit! takes advantage of what's under the hood to throw players endless physics driven twists from balls that split in mid-flight to splintering fruits and more!

Award-winning Peterson App 90% Off For Labor Day Weekend - Published on 08/30/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Celebrate Labor Day Weekend with a 90% Off sale on Appweavers recently refreshed award-winning app for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, Peterson Birds - A Field Guide to Birds of North America. The app gives users details on over 800 North American birds, from the best-selling Peterson Field Guide to Birds of North America book, with illustrations, maps, details, bird songs, lists, search and more. Designed for ease of use and accessibility.

San Francisco, California - Appweavers Inc., developer of the Peterson field guide series of mobile apps for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, is celebrating the Labor Day Weekend with a $0.99 sale on their recently updated flagship app, Peterson Birds - A Field Guide to Birds of North America. The award-winning Peterson Birds app is based on the best-selling book, Peterson Field Guide to Birds of North America, and features Roger Tory Peterson's breathtakingly beautiful illustrations, along with maps, details, and birdsongs. The 99 sale represents a 90 percent discount on the $14.99 full retail price of the app.

"Labor Day Weekend traditionally marks the end of summer," said Nigel Hall, founder of Appweavers. "But it also heralds the beginning of fall migration, a time when hundreds of migratory species of birds from all across North America head south for the winter. What better time to download the best-selling Peterson app and discover birds you wouldn't normally see visiting your neighborhood."

Designed for ease of use and accessibility, Peterson field guides have introduced generations to the beauty of the North American natural environment. The Peterson Birds app is modelled on these guides and features detailed information from eight Peterson field guide books.

The Peterson Birds app is designed to help you quickly identify birds. Similar looking species are displayed side by side, for fast visual comparison. A tap on the screen shows range maps for the similar species, so you can see if a bird is likely to be found in your neighborhood. And a tap on each species illustration plays its song, letting you compare how different birds sound.

In addition to the conventional information found in a field guide book, the Peterson app lets you mark birds you've seen off a checklist, record sightings with notes, add your own photos, and reorganize the way the guide looks to truly make it your own. The app provides indexes for quick reference, search functions for filtering the 800 plus birds included in the app, and a wealth of additional detailed information.

The Peterson Birds app $0.99 USD Labor Day Weekend sale begins on Saturday August, 31, 2013 and ends Tuesday September 3rd, 2013. Peterson Birds runs on Apple's iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad devices and is optimized for retina displays and the larger screen of the iPhone 5.

Peterson Birds of North America, Peterson Birds Pocket Edition, and the free Peterson Backyard Birds of North America are developed by Appweavers, Inc. in California, using content licensed from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, publishers of the Peterson field guide series of books.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* This app is optimized for iPhone 5
* 1.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
