MacBreakZ 5.11 can now be controlled via global keyboard shortcuts - Published on 09/24/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MacBreakZ is an integrated solution designed to address the full range of computer related health problems: typing injuries, neck, shoulder and back pain, tension headaches and eye strain. The break monitors computer usage patterns and suggests rest and "micro" breaks at appropriate times. During these breaks the user is offered a range of tension relieving stretching exercises, as well as useful ergonomic tips. The new version can be controlled using global keyboard shortcuts.

Canach, Luxembourg - publicspace.net today is proud to announce MacBreakZ 5.11. MacBreakZ is an integrated solution designed to address the entire spectrum of computer related health problems, ranging from eyestrain, headaches, neck, wrist, elbow and back pain to more severe Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI), including carpal tunnel syndrome, writer's cramp, tendonitis, etc.

This latest release adds support for controlling the application via global keyboard shortcuts. Users can start, end, delay or disable breaks using fully customizable keyboard shortcuts.

MacBreakZ offers a unique way of acquiring life-enhancing ergonomic skills that can prevent much discomfort and protect its users from serious health and career-threatening injury.

The break reminder component of MacBreakZ features sophisticated keyboard and mouse monitoring (without invading the user's privacy) that allows it to react to individual computer usage patterns. Moreover, MacBreakZ promotes behavior modification by providing users with real-time feedback on the healthfulness of their observed work patterns.

Based on actual keyboard and mouse use and the time spent in front of the screen, MacBreakZ suggests rest and micro breaks at appropriate intervals. MacBreakZ includes a set of 42 fully illustrated stretching exercises that are designed to reduce muscular tension, improve posture and strengthen appropriate muscle groups. It also features dozens of valuable ergonomic tips.

MacBreakZ features a sophisticated setup assistant that ensures that the user starts out with a basic configuration that suits their own individual needs and preferences. These preferences can be further refined by using the comprehensive customization options.

Computer users who take few or no rest breaks during their normal work hours are particularly at risk from severe, career-threatening injuries but typically find it hardest to break out of their health-threatening and unproductive work patterns. MacBreakZ addresses this problem with its unique "adaptation period" feature which can smoothly and gradually move the user from a regime without any breaks to the desired frequency and length of rest breaks over a period of weeks or months.

MacBreakZ is popular for both RSI recovery and prevention.

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.7 Lion or later
* 26.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Single User Licenses for MacBreakZ cost $24.99 (USD) and are available worldwide through the Mac App store in the Health and Fitness category under the alias "BreakZ 5". Small Business, Family, Business and Enterprise licenses are also available from our web store.

The game, originally developed by Funatics GmbH for the PC, is now for the first time available for Intel only Mac users.

Dresden, Germany - Empire Builder "Cultures: 8th Wonder of The World" has been released on the Mac Appstore today. The game, originally developed by Funatics GmbH for the PC, is now for the first time available for Intel only Mac users. The game is the sequel to the very popular Real-Time-Strategy hit game "Cultures: Northland". The game features lovingly animated characters, an eventful campaign, 3 levels of difficulty to choose from and now offers support for wide screen resolutions.

About "Cultures: 8th Wonder of The World"

"Cultures: 8th Wonder of the World" is part of the widely popular RTS game series "Cultures"; and the successor of the well-known and successful "Cultures 2 - The Gates of Asgard" and "Cultures: Northland". This adventure and strategy game will see you assuming the role of a Viking hero charged with saving humanity from the forces of evil.

8TH WONDER OF THE WORLD takes place some years after the end of "Northland". The renowned heroes around the Viking Bjarni retired after their last adventure and enjoyed their daily lives.

But one day the powers of darkness and evil slowly began spreading all over the world. At the beginning, nobody noticed this or paid any attention, but people soon felt that suspicion, hate, war and harm were returning to humanity. More and more parts of the known world were attacked by the evil that nobody could grasp or fight against. When the end seemed close and the world stood on the brink of eternal chaos, the chiefs of all countries gathered in the Council of Nations. In long debates they tried to find a means to fight the evil. But nobody knew what could be done...

The one of the wise men came across some old writings which mentioned a way to fight the evil. A long and dangerous way, because only if the Eight Wonders of the Would were built again could darkness be banished and the evil defeated.
The greatest heroes of the past were summoned. The people addressed our friend Bjarni, who at once set out to save humanity from a fatal fortune again with his wife Cyra and their son Mani...

Their destiny, and with it the destiny of all humanity, now lies in your hands. You must solve the mystery surrounding the Eight Wonder of the World with your heroes and banish darkness from the Earth!

Cardio Diet Tracker v1.1 by Berkeley Test optimized for iOS7 - Published on 09/24/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cardio Diet Tracker, the Nitric Oxide food tracker, has been updated to version 1.1 for iOS7 to record, analyze, and facebook your heart healthy nitric oxide status in context of the plant-based foods you eat. v1.1 is free and Berkeley Test test strips for school lunch programs aimed at increasing your intake of vegetables are discounted. The updated Cardio Diet Tracker will alert you throughout the day to check your nitric oxide status for you to make heart healthy dietary changes.

Berkeley, California - To ensure you are eating adequate nitric oxide-rich vegetables for a heart-healthy diet, Berkeley Test provides an inexpensive and easy-to-use disposable saliva test strip for monitoring nitric oxide levels. In less than a minute, the results from the Berkeley Test strips can be analyzed on any iPhone with the free Cardio Diet Tracker and Nitric Oxide Food Recorder App v1.1 optimized for iOS7. The iPhone App provides immediate and ongoing feedback on foods that elevate your natural nitric oxide levels so those levels can be sustained for you to remain energized and fit.

The USDA recommends 4 to 6 daily servings of vegetables a day. For the vast majority of Americans, 2 cups of vegetables, especially for cardio-protective leafy greens, is often the upper limit of one's daily intake and less than 5 servings per week is typical. Sadly, society has moved away from multiple servings per day of vegetables substituting it with processed box food or supplements to satisfy dietary needs, which are often inadequate in nutritional value and nitric oxide potency.

The one-minute test is typically taken 2 hours after consuming plant-based meals during which time the body transforms the plant-based foods, such as spinach, celery, beet root and other leafy greens, into cardio-protective nitric oxide. It is well established through published clinical evaluations that elevated levels of nitric oxide enhances endurances and athletic performance. Go to Berkeley Test All-Stars to learn more about how Olympian and elite athletes use Berkeley Test.

In 1998, the Nobel Prize for medicine was awarded for discovering the importance of nitric oxide in cardiovascular health and wellness. Balanced whole food meals enriched with leafy greens, such as arugula, bok choy, kale, mustard greens, and spinach, can replenish the body's ability to generate cardiovascular protective and cardiovascular enhancing nitric oxide.

The inexpensive Berkeley Test strip used with the free iPhone app to record and track personal, plant-based diets increases the frequency of consuming leafy greens. The iPhone App analyzes your recordings demonstrating the healthy-heart benefits that these plant-based foods afford us.

Features of the Cardio Diet Tracker & Nitric Oxide Food Recorder app v1.1 for iOS7 by Berkeley Test:
* Records Nitric Oxide status throughout the day
* Shows which natural whole plant-based foods increases Nitric Oxide
* Provides feedback as to amount, frequency and mix of natural whole plant-based foods
* Keeps users on heart-healthy diets, such as Ornish, Mediterranean, TLC, Pritikin & DASH diets
* Tracks your Nitric Oxide status as it rises and falls throughout the day, week, and month, thereby allowing dietary adjustments
* Shares your cardio diet successes with your Facebook community

Results of focus group members using the Berkeley Test Strip and Cardio Diet tracker app found:
* More heart healthy vegetables and leafy greens were incorporated into their diet
* New ways to add vegetables to their plate
* Lower systolic pressure when their saliva Nitric Oxide status was elevated
* Training and race performance enhanced
* Workouts improved when their Nitric Oxide status was at the level of 'Target'
* An increase in the number of vegetable servings

Functions of the cardio diet tracker and Nitric Oxide food recorder app:
* My Nitric Oxide (No) Status - records colorimetric reading from saliva Nitric Oxide Test strip - depleted, low, threshold, target, and high level - at a specific time of the day,

* My Log - summaries NO status in context of the time, type and amount of NO foods eaten during a meal or snack,

* My Day - graphically illustrates your average NO levels for the day, week, and month in context of when tested and in relationship to consumption of a Nitric Oxide potent plant-based food,

* My Stat - graphically shows the average NO potency of the food based on the type of foods in relationship to when the Nitric Oxide-rich foods were consumed. My LOG and My STAT includes 30 common vegetable packed with nutritious bioactives, which are ranked and weighted based on Nitric Oxide potency. This allows the app to calculate the relative potency in context of the food and the amount consumed.

* Alert, Notification, and Sharing - the user will be alerted 2-4 hours after recording their NO status and when a Target-level is achieved, the user will be prompted to share their dietary success with the Facebook friends interested in maintaining a healthy-heart diet.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.1 or later
* 10.2 MB

Newly launched Quizpics heading for the same success as 4 pics 1 word - Published on 09/24/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Quizpics 2.0 is the latest guessing game made by the young team at Quizpics Pty Ltd. Think Logo quiz, 4 pics 1 Word and Icon pop Quiz all rolled in to one. With a fun cartoon theme that's consistent across the whole game, from the clever individually hand drawn illustrations, to the carnival like musical score which plays in the background, Quizpics ensures a frustratingly addictive and fun user experience for those of all ages that love to put their thinking caps on and enjoy a good challenge.

Cupertino, California - With a fun cartoon theme that's consistent across the whole game, from the clever individually hand drawn illustrations, to the carnival like musical score which plays in the background, Quizpics ensures a frustratingly addictive and fun user experience for those of all ages that love to put their thinking caps on and enjoy a good challenge.

Quizpics is a clever combination of the most downloaded and top ranked guessing games to hit the app market, but with a twist. Think Logo quiz, 4 pics 1 Word and Icon pop Quiz all rolled in to one.

The object of the game is to match a popular brand, phrase, musical artist or celebrity (Depending on the category) to a cleverly drawn illustration, and for an added element of angst and fun, the user is pitted against a bonus timer to earn extra points.

The pictures range from easy to hard and draw inspiration from the popular rebus puzzles. "Whilst fun, the limitation with rebus puzzles is that they're restricted to phrases. We love playing these kinds of games but we thought we'd love them more if we could relate to them on another level by including popular brands, celebritities and movies, which are a part of our culture" notes Jason Roses (one of the creators) on how Quizpics came to fruition.

After a 6 month search process looking for the top cartoon illustrators from around the world, they found the perfect one and the results speak for themself. "We've hired one of the most sought after and talented cartoon illustrators in the world to hand draw loads of fun cartoon picture puzzles across a range of popular and addictive categories and this is what seperates Quizpics from the rest of the pack" comments Layton Mills, one of the creators.

Additionally, the app is sensibly functional. It's easy to navigate and gets straight to the point. The gameplay is quick and smooth and there's a pleasant musical score that adds another element to enhance the users experience.

The most interesting added feature is the bonus clock. If the player is able to solve the quizpic before the bonus clock runs out, they are rewarded with more coins. This simple but clever element, adds another dimension to the game that seperates it from other trivia games.

"We wanted to bring the "fun" that we felt was missing from many of the trivia games on the market. Personally we love this category but we felt that there needed to be a combination of fun aswell as challenge. The way we decided to do that, was through the colourful user interface, the musical sound effects and features, the bonsus clock and most importantly the illustrations. Ultimately we think quizpics is a great addition to the trivia/puzzle category and really puts a twist on some old favourites which have become a bit stale"

Quizpics is the newest guessing game to hit the iPhone market but adds a level of quality and likeability to the category that hasn't been seen before. It's a combination of a beautiful user interface, addictive fun, great illustrations and a real trivial challenge for the mind that really gets the brain thinking.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 33.4 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Quizpics 2.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

New International Version of Interactive Graphic Novel The Wagner Files - Published on 09/24/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Award-winning documentary company, gebrueder beetz filmproduktion today announces The Wagner Files HD 1.5, the highly-anticipated new international version of its unique interactive graphic novel app for iPad. The unique interactive iPad graphic novel app seeks to answer the compelling question "Who was Richard Wagner?" through an expansive, museum-quality selection of animated sequences, videos, interactive maps, historical letters, musical scores, photographs, expert interviews and more.

Cupertino, California - The unique interactive iPad graphic novel app seeks to answer the compelling question "Who was Richard Wagner?" through an expansive, museum-quality selection of animated sequences, videos, interactive maps, historical letters, musical scores, photographs, expert interviews and other elements that cast the mystery, genius and controversy of Wagner in a completely new light.

Award-winning documentary company gebrueder beetz filmproduktion has launched the highly-anticipated new international version of its unique interactive graphic novel app The Wagner Files for English, French and Japanese-language users.

Currently available for iPad and iPhone, The Wagner Files seeks to answer the compelling question "Who was Richard Wagner?" through an expansive, museum- quality selection of animated sequences, videos, interactive maps, historical letters, musical scores, photographs, and other elements that cast the mystery, genius and controversy of Wagner in a completely new light.

However, unlike conventional graphic novel apps that offer a passive user experience, The Wagner Files is dynamically interactive, and as such users can decide how they wish to experience the story by either swiping through the pages, or by listening to voiceovers that are brilliantly delivered by renowned actors.

Users can also treat themselves to over 60 minutes of original Wagner music, or explore interviews with leading Wagner experts, such as Katharina Wagner (great- granddaughter and director of the Bayreuth Festival), Simone Young (musical director of the Opera Hamburg), conductor Philippe Jordan, Cosima-biographer Oliver Hilmes, and more.

Plus, users will also enjoy the remarkable "music machine" by American music animator Stephen Malinowski, who transforms the overture of "The Flying Dutchman" note-by- note into animated circles, lines and squares. Malinowski, who has recently worked for Bjork, is a star in the online world and his visualizations of classical music have been viewed over 100 million times.

"Only few people know that Wagner was not only a great composer, but at the same time he was also a maniac, anti-Semite, womanizer and trickster," commented Christian Beetz, CEO of gebrueder beetz filmproduktion. "We wanted to tell all of the facets of Wagner's life story in a compelling way."

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 817 MB

Pricing and Availability:
The new international version of the unique interactive graphic novel, The Wagner Files HD 1.5 is $5.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Books category.
