New iOS App Chinese Flash Combines Vocab Study, Tone Practice - Published on 01/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Long Weekend today introduces Chinese Flash 1.0 for iOS, their new tool for studying Chinese vocabulary. Chinese Flash combines the concept of a spaced-repetition flash card system along with native pronunciation of each pinyin tone. Preloaded with over 150 study sets, the app lets users focus on relevant vocabulary, such as word lists for the HSK and TOFCL tests. Users can also create their own study sets out of the 100,000+ word built-in Chinese-English dictionary and more.

Tokyo, Japan - Chinese Flash, a new tool for studying Chinese vocabulary, launched January 9th on the Apple App Store. The tool combines the concept of a spaced-repetition (SRS) flash card system along with native pronunciation of each pinyin tone.

Preloaded with over 150 study sets, the app lets users focus on relevant vocabulary, such as word lists for the HSK and TOFCL (Taiwan-based) tests. Users can also create their own study sets out of the 100,000+ word built-in Chinese-English dictionary, which is convenient for quickly adding new words learned "in the wild" to a study list.

Chinese Flash also offers each tone pronounced by a native speaker from the popular Chinese learning site Lingomi.

"Lingomi's philosophy is a balanced approach to Chinese learning; vocabulary, characters, and tones - we couldn't agree more, and are proud to offer their great audio content as part of our product on the iOS platform," said Mark Makdad, a director at Long Weekend, makers of Chinese Flash.

Run by 3 Western expatriates in Asia, Long Weekend also has released Japanese Flash, a top-rated Japanese language study tool for the iOS platform.

"Studying ideograph-based languages, namely Chinese and Japanese, requires a slightly different approach; we try to help native English speakers bridge the gap in learning these languages," Makdad said.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* 21.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Chinese Flash 1.0 is $4.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Learn More About Yourself Than You Ever Thought Possible With an iOS

Learn More About Yourself Than You Ever Thought Possible With an iOS App - Published on 01/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Massachusetts based independent developer James Hollender has updated his Life Inventory apps to ver. 2.0. Using an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, users can learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible, and only at a small fraction the cost of a single office visit to a therapist. Life Inventory is the new name for the Step 4 Moral Inventory apps. Originally designed for 12-steppers it was discovered the inventory would also be of benefit to anyone, which is why the name change.

Revere, Massachusetts - Independent developer James Hollender has updated his Life Inventory apps to ver. 2.0. Using an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, users can learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible, and only at a small fraction the cost of a single office visit to a therapist. Life Inventory is the new name for the Step 4 Moral Inventory apps. Originally designed for 12-steppers it was discovered the inventory would also be of benefit to anyone, which is why the name change.

Note: The terms "Life Inventory" and "Moral Inventory" are interchangeable.

Life Inventories Can Help Anyone:
Although originally designed for persons participating in 12-Step programs, it has since been discovered a Moral Inventory can help anyone analyze their life to learn more about themselves than ever imagined possible ... and at only a small fraction the cost of a single visit to a therapist. Examine your reactions to:

* People
* Institutions and Organizations
* Principles, Ideals and Beliefs
* Sources of Anxiety and Excitement
* Fears
* Sex Relations

Create your own personal Life Inventory using an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. "Life Inventory iPad" is for the iPad, and "Life Inventory" is for the iPhone or iPod touch.

Background:
The Life Inventory apps were created because of the complexity and length of time needed to complete a proper Moral Inventory. When persons working their way through a 12-step program start creating their own moral inventory and discover that some ways of doing a Moral Inventory might require a thousand spreadsheets, the task seems daunting and many never get around to finishing it, thus depriving themselves of the rewards a completed Moral Inventory can provide. This app is an attempt at finding a way to make the task less time consuming, while at the same time helping the user create a valuable asset in their recovery process.

Storage of the Life Inventory data is done using an underlying database which can be backed up and restored as necessary.

Disclaimer - This app is neither officially produced nor approved by Alcoholics Anonymous or any other Addiction Recovery program. From what is known there have been many Moral Inventory spreadsheets circulating unofficially among AA members for at least 50 years in various versions and this app is based on one the developer found to be useful and more comprehensive than most.

Acknowledgement:
Many thanks to "George" and his "Dungeon Prison Complete" spreadsheet which has been used as the outline for this app. This spreadsheet was developed based on years of his own personal research of the AA Big Book, along with help from many others who had already gone through the process of completing their own Moral Inventories. This was done in order to more fully understand the concepts necessary for completing his own Moral Inventory. George's extensive research resulted in the creation of the "Dungeon Prison Complete" spreadsheet, a detailed set of instructions on how to create a Moral Inventory, including several new concepts not directly covered in the AA Big Book: Sources of Anxiety/Excitement as a 4th Category; and a set of Sex Relations exercises. Both of these new elements were discovered to be critical in eventually understanding why we do what we do, the end result of completing your own Moral Inventory.

Anyone, Not Just 12-Steppers, Can Benefit from Completing a Life Inventory:

The process of completing a Life Inventory doesn't directly address addictions specifically, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life. The Life Inventory apps gently assists the user in probing into not only what happened, but also why it happened. The questions asked help the user delve into areas often never considered before like:

* What did I want?
* Why did I want it?
* What am I not admitting?
* What lie did I tell myself? (always present)
* What did I leave out or not say?
* What lie did I tell others?
* Have I ever done the same thing?
* Was it any of my business?
* Were my expectations reasonable?
* What was the real truth?
* What was I not seeing?
* Did I fail to see the facts of the situation?
* What actions did I take to get what I wanted?
* What actions did I omit to get what I wanted?

Sometimes the questions are difficult to answer, but once done, they help provide significant insight into why certain choices were made and, more importantly, determining there are often alternative choices available which will make life so much better in the future.

Tab 1 - Life Inventory

iNMR Changes Look and Changes the Internal Framework too

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

iNMR Changes Look and Changes the Internal Framework too - Published on 01/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nucleomatica today announces iNMR 5.0, a new version of the celebrated software for NMR processing on the Mac. iNMR, the Mac-only software for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, has been recompiled as a 64-bit application and the whole graphic interface has been redrawn. iNMR has been popular among the scientific community for its unique way of working with NMR data. The program is now faster and easier to use, offering many options not yet available.

Molfetta, Italy - Nucleomatica today is pleased to announce the availability of iNMR 5.0, a new version of the celebrated software for NMR processing on the Mac. With this milestone release iNMR becomes a 64-bit application. All the Carbon code has been ported to Cocoa and the interface has been redrawn, with new cursors, new icons and new dialogs.

Current customers will feel comfortable with the changes, because there is nothing new to learn, while many details of the user interface have been simplified. The interaction with the program is more intuitive, immediate and natural. The list of changes is quite long and takes a whole page on the official web site.

Nucleomatica has been trying, for years, to offer the same identical product to the widest range of users. After the introduction of Lion, however, this proposal had become too difficult to fulfill and the time had come to move on and leave somebody behind. Version 5 requires Snow Leopard and a 64-bit Intel CPU. Version 4 and the "iNMR reader", both compiled as universal binary, are still available for older machines, those running Tiger or Leopard. Documents and scripts can be exchanged back and forth between the old and the new versions, meaning that there is no problem if different computers in the same lab have different versions of iNMR installed.

Since its first appearance in 2005, iNMR has been popular among the scientific community for its unique way of working with NMR data, expressed in the motto: "the ultimate NMR experience". Version 5 brings this experience to a new level of pleasure, according to what beta-testers have said. iNMR is also the only NMR software running on a Mac, if cross-platform applications are excluded from the count.

Minimum Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6
* Intel Core 2 Duo

Language Support:
* US English

Pricing and Availability:
iNMR can be freely downloaded with a single click, directly from the iNMR web site. The size of the whole package is less than 3 MB. Licenses are sold on the Mestrelab store. A standard license costs 300 Euro plus VAT, with discounts for multiple copies. A disposable license costs 150 Euro. Students can buy a license at the special price of 39 Euro. The upgrade from v4 to v5 is free for standard academic licenses. The program can also be used without any license, in evaluation mode, for unlimited periods.

Charlottesville, Virginia - Essay Workstation 2.1 is rated a top writing app by teachers, education blogs and Apple. From the step-by-step writing instructions to the built-in writing platform, students learn the critical thinking aspects of writing plus are productive with a write anytime, anywhere iPad and iPhone app. Students and schools are aware of the growing importance of writing skills in the workplace and overall career success, and Essay Workstation 2.1 is an essential part of learning how to write well.

As the new semester begins and students return focus to academics, Essay Workstation 2.1, by Niles Technology Group, is an essential tool for academic success. The comprehensive instructions and the mobility of a write anytime, anywhere platform give students the advantage of being able to complete any writing assignment to the best of their ability. In addition to writing, the app teaches the critical thinking skills of argument development and persuasive paragraph sequencing.

Employers consistently cite writing as a weak point in their applicant pools' skill set and are screening potential hires more vigorously for writing ability. Writing is really about communicating ideas; and, the workplace is all about good communication. Often, perfect grammar and composition are mistaken for excellent writing. Grammar and composition are only parts of writing; the primary focus of writing is communication of an idea in a way that others clearly understand. Therefore, critical thinking and argument development come first. A perfectly written sentence is only perfect if it conveys its intended meaning. The motto at Niles Technology Group is "Think First, Write Second".

"Niles Technology's education line of apps are first and foremost critical thinking platforms," explains Michael A. Niles, president of Technology Group. "Student confidence is directly linked to how comfortable they feel about themselves and their ideas. If the instructional content does not get a student to think reflexively and to truly understand and be comfortable with what he or she thinks, then the final product reflects this indecisiveness. Essay Workstation 2.1 is an app that does both things well - it gives students the confidence that their ideas do matter and also teaches the critical thinking skills to best develop and express those ideas. We think that there is no better "education" gift to give students."

Schools and teachers have discovered the efficacy of Niles Technology apps. Each month the volume purchase of the apps increase, which indicates that the use of mobile apps in schools is becoming more commonplace. Parents have also caught on because Essay Workstation is the No. 1 gifted app in the Niles inventory. For the lower grades, Middle School Writing has become a solid No. 2 bestseller, with both parents and schools purchasing the app. The Niles app catalog can be seen in the App Store by simply entering "Niles" in the iTunes search.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad

Apple Approves first Free Bluetooth Smart (BLE) App for CES 2012

Apple Approves first Free Bluetooth Smart (BLE) App for CES 2012 - Published on 01/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BlueFire EKG is the first free App approved by Apple that lets iPhone 4S users try the latest Bluetooth Smart devices at CES 2012 and ISPO 2012. Check out how Bluetooth Smart will allow your iPhone to seemlessly capture heart rate info. Apple has again screamed past the competition with the inclusion of Bluetooth Smart in the iPhone 4S, download BlueFire EKG and attend CES 2012 to see the future.

Ottawa, Canada - BlueFire EKG the first free Bluetooth Smart Heart Rate Monitor App has been approved by Apple. BlueFire EKG has been created especially for CES 2012 and ISPO 2012 so that attendees can try out the latest Bluetooth Smart (BLE) Heart Rate Monitors. Bluetooth Smart Heart Rate Monitors are at the forefront of a large group of new health innovations being delivered by all the major health and electronics leaders.

The App showcases the combined power of iOS and Bluetooth Smart. An early implementer of the latest iOS 5 particle emitter system results in a fire like EKG signal that changes color and rhythm based on your heart beat. As your heart beats faster the color will change from blue to red. The audible feedback will also pulse to the same rhythm as your heart using a standard EKG audible signal.

To link with BLE devices you will need an iPhone 4S as other iOS devices do not have the required hardware. You can still use BlueFire EKG on iOS devices other than an iPhone 4S but the App will only run in Demo Mode on those devices. This version includes a refined device selector based on received signal strength indication (RSSI). The devices will be listed in order with those closest to you (strongest RSSI) at the top of the list if multiple devices are found.

Less than a month ago CardioMapper became the first iOS App approved by Apple for the two newest wireless heart rate monitoring technologies. CardioMapper is capable of connecting and reading data from both Bluetooth 4.0 (also called Bluetooth Smart and BLE) and the SmartHRM WiFi. For advanced heart rate recording functions checkout CardioMapper.

Have fun playing with the latest Bluetooth Smart BLE Heart Rate Monitoring devices at CES 2012 and ISPO 2012 and get ready for a healthier future.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later

This avoids inaccurate time logs and the risk of forgetting to start or stop a timer is eliminated. A lite version (limited to todays' and yesterdays' data) is now available for a free trial prior to the purchase.

The application is targeted at Mac users who are curious about how they spend time using their computer. Timing will give a detailed overview on how much time is lost playing games and browsing websites like Facebook and Twitter. Using these data, users can adapt their behavior in order to increase their productivity.

Freelancers and other professional computer workers can leverage Timing to obtain an overview which projects consume most of their time, allowing them to bill their work hours more accurately.

Timing tracks the path of the currently edited document and the domain of visited websites. It also supports grouping activities into projects for easier aggregation of data. Thanks to this concept, users are able to check what activities they spent time on. Populating projects with data is as easy as drag-and-drop.

Even though it collects sensitive data like the currently used documents, Timing will not compromise the privacy of its users. Recorded data stays safe on the users' computer and a customizable blacklist makes it easy to prevent selected activities from being tracked. In addition, any entry can be erased retroactively.

Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later
* 10 MB disk space

Pricing and Availability:
Timing 1.1.5 is available on the Mac App Store for the limited-time introductory price of $9.99 (USD). For more detailed information, please have a look at the Timing homepage. Qualified reviewers are welcome to ask for a free promo code. Should you find Timing worth a note, we'd be more than happy to receive a short reference via email. The application icon, screenshots and more press material are available from the application's website.

Charades 1.0 for iOS - Game Center Enabled Version of Classic Party

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Tue Jan 10, 2012 2:00 am (PST)



Charades 1.0 for iOS - Game Center Enabled Version of Classic Party Game - Published on 01/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Appogeum today introduces Charades 1.0 free for iOS, their Game Center enabled version of the classic party game for 2-4 online players. Localized for five different languages, a saying, word, or phrase is given to one player. They attempt to draw a picture that will allow any other player to correctly guess the puzzle. Players can see each other's guesses and chat with each other all through the game. Players' scores are based on how quickly they guess/draw correctly.

Lodz, Poland - Appogeum today is pleased to introduce Charades 1.0 free for iOS, their Game Center enabled version of the classic party game for 2-4 online players. Localized for five different languages, a saying, word, or phrase is given to one player from the app's built in library. That player attempts to draw a picture that will allow any other player to correctly guess the puzzle. Players can see each other's guesses and chat with each other all through the game. Players' scores are based on how quickly they guess/draw correctly. Fully drawing capabilities are built in to the app, and a practice mode allows players an opportunity to hone their skills.

Charades is a multi-player game and challenges the players' knowledge, speed, richness of associations, and manual skills. Invite 1, 2, or 3 friends and acquaintances from all over the world to play via Game Center. Each player takes turns to draw a randomly selected phrase on the screen, while the remaining players hurry to be the first person to guess that phrase. The players are able to see one another�s guesses. The sooner the correct phrase is guessed, the more points go to the accounts of the successful guesser and the player drawing.

The application is fully translated into English, Spanish, French, German, and Polish. Each language version contains a few thousand ideally selected phrases: single words, phrases, sayings, and proverbs. The game remains interesting through regular updating and improving of the phrase database. Each user can also submit his or her own proposals and suggestions! The language of the phrase dictionary can be changed at any moment so that players can try their strength in other languages. The language interface is automatically set based on the device's user settings.

The game ends after 500 points have been reached � at that moment in the archive, players will find a few tens of pictures, drawn during the course of the game. The pictures can be marked as favorites, sent by e-mail to acquaintances, or published on Facebook.

After a short while we arrive at the conclusion that the greatest source of satisfaction in the game is not winning it. Scoring points becomes merely additional motivation once the players realize that the greatest fun is in the guessing. The win is announced discreetly as a piece of systemic information as the points are zeroed out. It is deciphering your competitors� pictures and drawing your own images that is the chief source of pleasure, laughs, and amusement which make every player feel like a winner.

There is also a special, optional Training mode. Whenever a user wishes to polish their skills, they can do so without the pressure of timing and points, by simply selecting that option from the menu and practicing drawing of suggested phrases for as long as they like. Players can erase and redraw the pictures until they are fully satisfied with the results. Those pictures will also be saved in the archive, so users can return to them and share them at any time.

Feature Highlights:
* Classic party game adapted for 2, 3, or 4 online players
* Gameplay is accomplished through the Apple Game Center
* Invite friends to play, or be matched with another player in the same language
* Group play anytime, anywhere through advanced iOS Game Center capabilities
* Convey a word, phrase, or saying with just one or more drawings
* Game Center Achievements and Leaderboards

Charades is distributed free so users can make sure they are satisfied with the game before they pay for it. The free version has no time or functional limitations and it does not require regular payments later on. Occasionally, before the starting of the game (not during the match) an advertising banner will be displayed on the screen � that is all. Players who pay to enable the premium version will immediately receive: a special achievement, 40% more points than non-premium players, no more advertising banners, and every day during the starting of the application, users will receive phrase database updates.

According to Krzysztof Rutkowski of Appogeum, "Charades for iOS offers fabulous entertainment for you and your friends, for free and with no hidden costs! Forget tokens, berries, and other virtual currencies � download the game now, totally for free, and start having great fun!"

Language support:

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S, iPod touch (3rd/4th generation), and iPad 1/2

Sumoku 1.0 Free for iOS - Unique Crossword-Style Game with Numbers - Published on 01/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Beaverton, Oregon - Blue Orange Games and HagerApps introduce Sumoku 1.0 for iOS 5. Tiles numbered 1 to 9 in six colors are played on a crossword-style board. The goal is to play tiles in a vertical and horizontal arrangement, so the newly created line is a multiple of a randomly chosen key number (3, 4 or 5). For example, if the key number were 5, the new line could add up to 5, 10, 15, etc. The game is not only fun to play, it also helps master and retain math skills.

Beaverton, Oregon - Blue Orange Games and HagerApps are pleased to introduce Sumoku 1.0 free for iOS 5, their new version of the popular addition Game played with 96 tiles and 1 die. Tiles are numbered from 1 to 9 and each is one of six colors. At the start of play, a key number is chosen randomly, which can be 3, 4, or 5. Players have 8 tiles each, and they try to achieve the maximum score each turn, placing tiles that must be played in a crossword style vertical and horizontal arrangement, so that the newly created row or column is a multiple of the key number. For example, if the key number were 5, the tiles played could add up to 5, 10, 15, 20, etc. Making the game particularly challenging, is the rule that two tiles of the same color cannot be used in a single vertical or horizontal line.

Pronounced soo-moh-koo', the term refers to pattern created by the tiles on the board. As in Scrabble-like games, winning requires careful thought and a bit of luck. Frequently, playing just one or two tiles that adds on to a previous row or column may be a player's best play. As a Bonus, each time a player creates or completes a line of all six different colors, they play again. Players resupply to the full complement of 8 tiles after each turn. Packed with endless challenges and perfect for sharpening math and problem-solving skills, Sumoku is proof that learning is fun.

Joe Monkey Escapes - Can be found in App Store - Published on 01/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Colorado based Metal Sole Studio today introduces Joe Monkey Escapes 1.0, its new platform-puzzler for iPad. Joe Monkey and his friends are held captive by the evil Dr. Serious Lee. Players use Joe and his friends to solve over 50 levels of puzzles. Nothing is out-of-bounds: monkeys standing on one another, tossing monkeys to their death, parachutes, elevators. Joe and his friends must cooperate to solve the ever-more-difficult puzzles on their way to the exit, and escape.

Colorado Springs, Colorado - Metal Sole Studio, the newest independent game studio on the block, today is thrilled to announce the release and immediate availability of "Joe Monkey Escapes" for the iPad. A Platform-Puzzler, Joe Monkey Escapes uses a platform-based world to tell the story of Joe Monkey and his friends held captive by the evil Dr. Serious Lee. Dr. Lee has recently invented a new planet-melting device and needs Joe's help to get the device working. (Okay, he actually bought it online).

Players use Joe and his friends to solve over 50 levels of puzzles. Nothing is out-of-bounds: monkeys stand on one another, fly around the level, fall and jump to their deaths, use parachutes, spring-shoes, Magna-Helmets, elevators, and most impressive of all: JoeBot Pants. Joe and his friends must cooperate to solve the ever-more-difficult puzzles on their way to the exit, and escape.

Breaking from the standard platform mold, Joe Monkey Escapes is also a full "talkie" - voice acted throughout. Follow the characters as they claw over one another to get out of the lab and, perhaps, save the planet.

Features:
* Over 50 Levels
* Entirely voice-acted storyline
* Over 25 silly achievements

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad

Joe Monkey was conceived, designed, drawn, acted, and programmed by one person and after a year of being locked in the basement he is ready to tell his story. Matt Maher has been a developer and architect of enterprise systems for 20 years for fortune 25 companies. Imagining himself to truly be an artist with a flair for humor, he finally decided to scratch that itch with Joe Monkey�s help. Of course, this scratching took over a year and lots of bananas. With no background in art nor game development, Matt took on the challenge of self-education and discovery. After 3 months of intensive sketching on his iPad, Joe and his band of friends were ready to start monkeying around with one another. Joe Monkey Escapes is simply their playground.
