HTTP:: Spore Creatures Unlockables II DS
--------
Spore was one of last year's biggest and most hyped-up titles to appear. Being the next big thing from Sims creator Will Wright and promising to let players create their own creature and then guide it through the stages of its evolution, the title became very popular on the PC.But the new franchise has also received a handheld version, in the form of Spore Creatures, which was made through a collaboration between the owner of the rights and the creator of the PC verison, Maxis, and Foundation 9. The title was released on September 5, 2008 in Europe and in North America on September 7, the same year.The title borrows a lot of features from the PC version, as it will allow players to have the same basic experience, which touches on creativity, exploration, sharing and collecting. The unique features of the Nintendo DS are the stylus, the touchscreen setup and the wireless connection that is included. The game focuses more on the creature phase and has its own creator that has!
the same name as the title.As the creatures made by the players evolve, they will be able to explore their planet and, eventually, their galaxy, making friends and enemies along the way. A special feature called the Spore Species Guide will keep track of the animals they encounter along the way, including ...

HTTP:: One Third of Women Choose Children over Career
--------
Previous studies and polls have shown that, when they reach 30, most women also reach a threshold â€" for lack of a better term â€" where they deliberately make a choice between having a family life and having a successful career. Those who go for the latter usually remain single or in a non-committal relationship, it is being said, while the others can even opt to become full-time, stay-at-home moms. The latest study on the topic shows that up to one third of all ladies choose children over their career, as the Daily Mail can confirm. Until recently, Government claims had it that young mothers would be more than happy to put in extra hours for the extra money if a good childcare program was available, therefore all efforts were concentrated on developing it. However, the most recent research shows that one third of women want and are willing to quit their job without the regret of staying at home and raising the children, regardless of the options that are being presente!
d to them (such as extra pay, bonuses or childcare programs). “Once again a survey is telling us that the Government’s got it wrong. Continuing to push for more childcare and getting women to work more and longer hours is just not what women want. It’s neither in the interests of children, nor indeed in the in...

HTTP:: Red Faction Guerrilla Will Get More DLC
--------
Red Faction: Guerrilla has proved to be a plucky game. The action title set on Mars, which pits the player as a freedom fighter confronting the fascist-like EDF forces, managed to sell more than 1 million titles since it was released in June and made a good showing in the June NPD Group numbers, on both the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3. Still, the Chief Executive Officer of THQ believes that a bigger marketing push could have seen the title sell even more copies.Brian Farrell told investors that the marketing effort deserved a B grade but emphasized that “Frankly, I think on the next generation of Red Faction Guerilla we need to do a better job of creating day one demand. That being said, we do like the sales curve that it’s been exhibiting which shows that quality and word of mouth and downloadable content matter.”THQ aims to make the game relevant in the long run by adding more content via digital distribution and by offering a compelling multiplayer experience.

id Software is one of the biggest and most respected development studios in the world, being responsible for cult classics like Wolfenstein, Quake or Doom. That is because it has made a name for itself by pushing the envelope in terms of performance on the platforms for which it developed, particularly for the PC. But for its upcoming post apocalyptic shooter/racer hybrid Rage, the team led by John Carmack hasn't been doing so well in bringing the same amount of performance for all of the three platforms on which it will appear, the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The developer from id Software revealed to Edge magazine that, even though the more powerful PlayStation 3 would benefit from getting the game on a single Blu-ray disc, it would generate a lower frames-per-second rate than the Xbox 360 or PC versions, due to some hardware limitations. Carmack said that while the game, which is running on the company's new Tech 5 engine, would achieve a 60 fps rate on PC and 360!
, the PS3 would only reach “20-30 fps.” He added that: “The PS3 lags a little bit behind in terms of getting the performance out of it. The rasteriser is just a little bit slower - no two ways about that. The RSX is slower than what we have in the 360. The CPU is about the same, but the 360...

HTTP:: Jon Kate Plus 8 Show Returns on TV This Monday
--------
The public might have believed that Jon and Kate Gosselin announcing they were getting a divorce was the end of their highly popular reality show but, as far as TLC, the network carrying it, is concerned, it’s nothing but a small bump on the road. The reality show returns on small screens across the US this Monday, featuring some minor modifications to include the Gosselin separation, THRFeed confirms. In a statement recently released, TLC President Eileen O’Neill says that fans of the show should not lose hope of seeing the chaotic family return on the small screen. Divorce is a reality in many American families, therefore, just because it happened to the Gosselins too, it does not necessarily have to signify the end of what has been, so far, a very successful run with “Jon & Kate Plus 8.” Consequently, fans should expect some changes, O’Neill adds, but what will stay the same will be the love the two have for their eight adorable children. “Over the las!

Who gets to keep and raise Michael Jackson’s three children has been an issue that garnered much controversy and debate, especially since the only one who openly addressed it with the media was Joe Jackson, Michael’s father, who had not even been included in the will. Katherine Jackson, Michael’s mother, seemed to be the best person to raise the orphans, but Debbie Rowe, the star’s former wife, was also believed to have formulated some demands. An agreement has been reached in the custody case, as E! Online can confirm. Prince Michael, Paris and Prince Michael II (also known as “Blanket”) will be raised by Katherine, and grow up to become Jacksons, the aforementioned publication says. Talks are now over and, surprisingly or not, Debbie Rowe, the natural mother of Prince and Paris, has not made any claims regarding the estate the late King of Pop left behind.

Microsoft seems determined to make a few more changes in its upcoming operating system for mobile phones, Windows Mobile 6.5, which has been rumored to get renamed Windows Phone. The platform should come on handsets on the market as soon as this fall, and, while it has been announced since May to already be complete, it seems that developers are still working on bringing more improvements to it. Only last week we had the chance to learn that the future operating system will come to the market with a wide range of enhancements regarding its use on mobile phones that feature touchscreen displays, and now a few more details on the new changes have emerged. The new Windows Mobile 6.5 build shows more finger friendliness than before, in the form of an oversize toolbar at the bottom. According to the news, the recently leaked builds of the platform, namely 21932 and 2193, hint towards the 6.5.1 flavor of Windows Mobile. The new touch features included within the OS should enha!

According to the latest news on the Web, Motorola’s plans regarding Google's Android operating system also include the launch of an unheard-of-before device, the Motorola Sholes. Not only that it is Android powered, but the phone is also reportedly heading towards Verizon's lineup, though there are not too many details on this. When it comes to the specification list of the Motorola Sholes, it shows a little more functionality than the already spotted Motorola Morrison. While the latter was supposedly heading to the market targeting teenagers, the former seems to come as a device aimed at heavy users, who are not looking mainly for a phone that includes messaging capabilities. The new Motorola Sholes should come to Verizon's offering with a 3.7-inch touchscreen display able to deliver a 480 x 854 pixel resolution, as well as a 5-megapixel photo snapper with auto focus, as well as 512 MB of internal memory, coupled with a microSD/SDHC memory card slot that can support !

Planck's law is one of the most basic in physics, and is widely used to explain what governs the heat transfer between two bodies. The fact that the law breaks down when the objects are very close to each other has been theorized for many years, but no one has been able to demonstrate scientifically that this is possible until now. In a groundbreaking investigation, scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have managed to prove just that, and have learned that the heat transfer can be 1,000 times greater than the law predicts.“Planck was very careful, saying his theory was only valid for large systems. So he kind of anticipated this [breakdown], but most people don't know this,” the MIT Carl Richard Soderberg professor of power engineering Gang Chen says. The expert is also the director of the Pappalardo Micro and Nano Engineering Laboratories. The find could have significant applications in the field of electronics, and especially in hard-drive des!
igns, where the recording heads could be made a lot more effective. Additionally, new methods of harnessing energy from sources that are otherwise lost could also be devised, significantly boosting the planet's overall energy-production abilities. Thus far, building such systems has relied heav...

HTTP:: Spectrobes Beyond the Portals Hints IX DS
--------
The Nintendo DS has seen quite a few franchises flourish on it and give birth to a very successful and profitable series. An example of such a thing is Disney's Spectrobes franchise, which has seen a huge success with the first iteration when it was launched a few years ago.Realizing just what it had on its hands, the company tasked the Jupiter studio with creating a sequel to it. This new project was finalized with Spectrobes: Beyond the Portals, which was released on October 7, 2008 in North America, while Japan received it on December 11, the same year, and Europeans on February 27, 2009.The game boasts some major improvements over the first title, while continuing the story of Rallen and Jeena, two space officers who have saved their native Nanairo system from the evil Krawls. The peace after the conflict is disrupted by the abduction of one of their friends, Aldous, by a Krawl superior officer known as Maja. The fact that mysterios portals are opening around the Nanair!
o system makes the missions even more difficult, but, thanks to new Spectrobes and a new species of Dark Spectrobes, Rallen and Jeena have what it takes to get it done.Here are some of its features:- New, revamped, three-dimensional perspective;- Players can take on the role of either ...

HTTP:: Microsoft Bridges SQL Server 2008 and MapPoint 2009
--------
Microsoft is now offering customers the possibility to bridge MapPoint 2009 and SQL Server 2008 via the MapPoint Add-In for SQL Server. The add-in streamlines the processes of data visualization and manipulation on a MapPoint map. The data needs to of course be stored in an SLQ Server 2008 database. What this means is that users can leverage the MapPoint Add-In for SQL Server in order to have MapPoint 2009 connect to an SQL Server 2008 spatial database, and grab all the information needed from the database fields, and to filter it in order to be visualized in the mapping product, explained Chris Pendleton, the Virtual Earth technical evangelist for Microsoft Corporation. “MapPoint is an offline mapping software product. It installs and runs right there on your nice, private hard drive. SQL Server 2008 Express also runs right on your nice, private hard drive and spatial indexing and support for geography and geometry types are natively included. See where I’m going with!
this? You can have a completely offline scenario for mapping GIS data on laptop using MapPoint 2009, SQL Server 2008 Express and of course the bridge - Microsoft MapPoint Add-In for SQL Server. Yay!

HTTP:: Endeavor Deploys Satellites Prepares to Land Today
--------
On the eve of their planned landing today, scheduled to take place at 10:48 am EDT (1448 GMT) at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC), in Cape Canaveral, Florida, space shuttle Endeavor astronauts deployed yesterday a number of small satellites into orbit. The two sets of observatories were jettisoned from the craft's cargo bay, and their goal is to demonstrate a new technology, and to survey the planet's atmosphere from a low orbit. At the same time, the astronauts received word from Mission Control that their shuttle was fit for reentry, and began to prepare for the complex procedures that would follow. “Well thank you Houston, that's good news. We're looking forward to trying to come back tomorrow,” Endeavor Commander Mark Polansky replied, upon hearing the good news. The seven astronauts were a bit worried about the state of the craft's heat shield, which was hit by excessively high amounts of insulating foam when the shuttle took off from the KSC, on July 15th. Howeve!
r, the first inspection, which was carried out on the same day, revealed no sings of concerns. Pictures taken by ISS astronauts as Endeavor was maneuvering to dock also showed no damage, and a final inspection, carried out yesterday, convinced mission controllers that the dents in the shield posed no threat to the crew and the ship.

HTTP:: Nadya Suleman Filming Reality Show Without Children
--------
Nadya Suleman has long struck a deal with a production company to start work on her own reality show, a series that would border more on documentary and would ultimately serve as some sort of diary for OctoMom than for purely entertainment purposes, as it was said. Eager to get to work, Suleman has applied for work permits for her 14 children, which would allow her to include them in the series, and has already begun to shoot for the show â€" which is currently focusing only on her, an EW report says. The idea behind Suleman’s yet-untitled series is that it would show the world the truth behind the gossip and the bad public image OctoMom has. The only thing that managed, at one point, to get audiences interested was that it would stand as a glimpse inside America’s most mediated family (after the Jolie-Pitt's perhaps), where a single, unemployed mother tries to raise no less than 14 children. With this is mind, it’s not hard to understand why several publications ar!
e already showing a less marked interest in the reality show now that news broke that the children were not even featured in it. Still, this applies only momentarily, in the initial stages of production, EW vouches. “Nadya ‘Octomom’ Suleman, 33, signed a contract in May with production company Ey...

HTTP:: Nintendo Doesn 039 t Know Why Hardcore Games Aren 039 t Selling on the Wii
--------
The Nintendo Wii is a hugely successful console, but not because it appeals to every gamer out there, but because it mostly attracts people who haven't been introduced to gaming. That is why a lot of the titles made for it are designed with the “casual” market in mind, meaning that they are easy to pick up, entertain a wide variety of people, but don't really have the stopping power of titles like Gears of War or Halo. But when hardcore games are launched on the Wii, like MadWorld or The Conduit, they still don't manage to sell as much as, for example, Wii Fit or Mario Kart Wii. Asked why such high-quality titles usually go unnoticed by gamers, Nintendo's Denise Kaigler said that we needed to keep in mind the different sales curve that Wii titles enjoyed. “You know, I don't know. It's hard to say. It could be titles have the same type of sales curve that a lot of Nintendo titles have. A lot of Nintendo titles don't follow that traditional sales curve where they laun!

Pingie: HTTP:: Researchers Drill One Mile Beneath Active Earthquake Zone

HTTP:: Researchers Drill One Mile Beneath Active Earthquake Zone
--------
Using advanced equipment aboard the Chikyu (which translates into 'Planet Earth') drilling vessel, Japanese scientists have managed to drill a hole more than one mile deep into the ocean floor in the Nankai Trough earthquake zone, one of the most active in the world today. Located about 36 miles Southeast of the coasts of Japan, the region was breached using a revolutionary technology known as riser drilling, which allowed scientists to collect rock samples and install long-term monitoring equipment. The instruments will hopefully be able to provide seismologists with early warnings of when an earthquake is about to happen, and allow for enough time to alert the civilian population in the areas estimated to be affected. Other than the shock waves of the tremor, the people living in those areas could also avoid the effects of the ensuing tsunami waves, which are usually generated in the case of an earthquake taking place in the open seas. In the case of the Nankai region!
, what makes it so active is the fact that it's situated right at the point where the Philippines tectonic plate collides with the Japanese one. Scientists hope that the newly installed equipment will give them a better clue as to how energy builds up in the collision, which is the main trigger of earthquakes. As the plates s...

Pingie: HTTP:: Laos Reveals Bald Bird Species

HTTP:: Laos Reveals Bald Bird Species
--------
In a new study they have conducted in the central regions of Laos, scientists have discovered a rare species of songbirds, which appears to be completely bald. Its head is completely feather-free, and the bird represents, according to researchers, the only type of bald songbird in Asia, and the first one to be reported in the past 100 years. Its unusual head has brought it the name of “bare-faced bulbul,” which is somewhat appropriate when you look at it. Naturalists are in awe as to how this peculiar bird has managed to escape detection for so long, as very little is known about it. One possible explanation, they say, could be the fact that the creature prefers living in areas with little to no human presence, such as central Laos, where the landscape is dominated by rocky, limestone hills and mountains. Very few individuals venture in the wilderness, but the region is home to a variety of weird animals, including new species of rabbits and rats, discovered within th!
e last decade. The first hints of the new creature were noted in 1995, when Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) biologist Robert J. Timmins first saw what appeared to be a bald bird. Despite writing about it in his notebook, the expert did not publish an account of it as, at the time, the idea of a bald bulbul seemed too far-fetched, Wired re...

Pingie: HTTP:: UM Researchers Learn to Manipulate Light with Nanofilms

HTTP:: UM Researchers Learn to Manipulate Light with Nanofilms
--------
Scientists at the University of Minnesota have recently been able to devise cheap ways of manipulating light in peculiar manners, when they have established new techniques to produce very smooth, patterned, thin nanofilms. According to Technology Review, their work could lead to significant improvements in the fields of optical imaging, as well as in the emerging field of optical computing. More efficient solar cells could also become available, the researchers believe. The main achievement that took place at the UM was the fact that the scientists were able to create metal films that were incredibly smooth. This is an absolute requirement when working with plasmons, which are surface waves of light that can do what regular light cannot. Plasmons can only be produced and controlled by shining light on specially patterned nanofilms, which have to be extra-smooth in order to guide the waves. Otherwise, they scatter, and the researchers cannot use films to manipulate them an!
ymore. “People have shown useful effects with plasmons, but the problem is doing it on a substrate you could cheaply and reproducibly make,” UM chemistry professor David Norris explains. He adds that, until now, experts have used high-energy ions or electrons to carve out various types of patterns with...

Pingie: HTTP:: Startup Shows New Method of Obtaining Nuclear Fusion

HTTP:: Startup Shows New Method of Obtaining Nuclear Fusion
--------
The Vancouver, Canada-based start-up General Fusion has recently announced that it will begin work on a new type of nuclear fusion reactor as soon as it can pull enough funds together to do so. Experts from the company believe that they could have a working prototype within the next ten years, and that the entire project could cost less than $1 billion to complete. Thus far, General Fusion has managed to secure $13.5 million from both public and private sources, and hopes are high that work will soon begin at the new reactor. Other facilities designed to trigger sustainable nuclear fusion, such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), in France, have costs running up to $14 billion, though there are no guarantees that their method of obtaining the elusive reaction are any better than others. According to representatives in the industry, the method employed by General Fusion can best be described as magnetized target fusion. Despite being, in the sc!
ientists' own words, quite a long shot, the method is feasible, and it could work. The new reactor project does not incorporate tokamaks â€" the large, expensive, superconducting magnets that ITER relies on â€", nor does it make use of extremely powerful lasers, such as the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Live...

The Halo franchise is one of the biggest in the gaming industry, boasting a huge number of fans all around the world. That is why Microsoft and reputed director and producer Peter Jackson were planning a movie and a new game as early as 2006. Sadly, the years passed and nothing was heard about the projects, which made Halo fans quite eager to see just what the Lord of the Rings director would make of their beloved franchise. But, as we saw a few days ago during the San Diego Comic-Con, the project was left without a director, as Neill Blomkamp revealed that he wouldn't be at the helm of the Halo movie. Now, Peter Jackson talks about the projects and reveals that financial complications made the movie and the game come to a standstill. He says that the game “sort of collapsed when the movie didn't end up happening.” This fact is now backed up by a statement released by Microsoft, which says that Peter Jackson's Halo game isn't a top priority right now and that other t!

The title was released on September 5, 2008 in Europe and in North America on September 7, the same year.The title borrows a lot of features from the PC version, as it will allow players to have the same basic experience, which touches on creativity, exploration, sharing and collecting.

The wedding day is reportedly the happiest day of a man or woman’s life, marking the end of one period of life and the beginning of another, said to be even more beautiful and fulfilling than the former. As recent studies indicate, this second stage in life also comes with more pounds, as couples start packing extra weight shortly after saying their “I Do’s,” presumably because they simply let themselves go, ABC News informs. It has often been said that both men and women show a clear tendency of neglecting their diet and most details pertaining to their appearance once they are settled in a long-term relationship or they get married. As ABC News puts it, there is “mounting evidence” that this is not just a myth, as most couples start packing pounds shortly after the wedding ceremony. The explanation for that would be that both partners, once officially spouses, become content with how they look and what they have and simply let themselves go. “We found tha!

Killzone 2 was one of the biggest PlayStation 3 exclusives this year, finally managing to deliver the great experience that the team at Guerrilla Games had promised to fans for quite some time. While the single player mode was pretty interesting, a lot of fans found comfort in the top-notch multiplayer mode, which received a lot of praise. It also received, courtesy of the team at Guerrilla, three map packs, which introduced a lot of variety into the normal online gameplay of Killzone 2. Now though, it seems that we won't see any new DLC for the title in the near future, as the producer of the game, Seb Downie, revealed on the European PlayStation blog that the studio would “take a step back” from the title, as the work had been non-stop since its release. “Right now we’re going to take a step back from Killzone 2,” Downie said. “We’ve been working non-stop since the disc version was released on patches, DLC and http://www.killzone.com updates, so [we] need !
