News/release from flav1994
As the game becomes addictive, has good graphics and it should be emphasized that it is well structured. Our aim will be to dodge rocks that will appear to go far to make progress, we will have to circumvent and win points when we get to 300 points above the game. Do not go thinking that they are only 300 points is easy to achieve, in contrast, the rocks will increasingly have to be quicker and faster than them not to destroy us.

It has a nice menu with three options and only two available, we hope that its author will bring improvements in this little game.Download and Give Feedback Via Comments

After three very long months my project is finally complete. For my senior seminar class I chose to make a game for the game boy advance. After going through a few excellent tutorials I was well on my way to making a great game. Gravity Ball Advance is a game where you fight gravity and avoid objects such as walls. There are a total of 9 levels with different environments such as reverse gravity, space, fans, and switches and three difficulty levels to choose from. At the end of every third level there is a boss you must defeat.
Controls:
Up/A - Move up
Down/B - Move down
Start - Pause game
Left/Right - Move left/rightDownload and Give Feedback Via Comments

I worked on this for the last two days and have it at least in a playable fashion. If you don't know what Khet is, here is a description.

It's the game that combines lasers with classic strategy. Players alternate turns moving Egyptian-themed pieces having two, one or no mirrored surfaces. All four types of pieces (pharaoh, obelisk, pyramid and djed column) can either move one square forward, back, left, right, or diagonal, or can stay in the same square and rotate by a quarter twist. Each turn ends by firing one of the lasers built into the board. The laser beam bounces from mirror to mirror; if the beam strikes a non-mirrored surface on any piece, it is immediately removed from play. The ultimate goal is to illuminate your opponent's pharaoh, while shielding yours from harm!

(The red laser shoots out the top left, from the circle there, the grey one from the bottom right. red pieces can't go on the grey squares and grey pieces can't go on the red squares)

This game is being released to get feedback, etc. I will be updating it with more features. As of now, it is only 2 player on the same DS. I hope to add Wifi and computer AI soon. I will also be adding different configurations to play with. There are 3 main ones in Khet but I am also going to make it that players can make their own. I am also looking at redoing the graphics, possibly 3D.

As for now, enjoy the game! This is my FIRST DS game and also my first C/C++ program so please let me know what you think!

v1.02 - 03 Dec 08
---------------------------------------
Added in the 3 basic layouts. These are the ones that are in the rules. The way it works is:

* Classic: Use this setup if this is your first time to play Khet. Good for learning the game
* Imhotep: A variation on CLASSIC that opens up new defensive possibilities.
* Dynasty: A setup with an immediate balance of offense and defense that develops quickly.



v1.01 - 03 Dec 08
---------------------------------------
* Added the ability to deselect an item, to do this just click any where off the game board
* Added a highlight so you can see which piece you have selected
* Added a version number on the Rules screen so you can see what version you have.
* (Updated link)


v1.00 - 03 Dec 08
--------------------------------------
*Game added

New puzzle game for the Gamecube from Scognito released:


Wiicross is a picture logic puzzles in which cells in a grid have to be colored or left blank according to numbers given at the side of the grid to reveal a hidden picture.
In this puzzle type, the numbers measure how many unbroken lines of filled-in squares there are in any given row or column.
For example, a clue of "4 8 3" would mean there are sets of four, eight, and three filled squares, in that order, with at least one blank square between successive groups.
It's easier playing with game directly than understand the rules at first :)

Features:


More than 50 levels, all drawn by users!
Two game modes: Normal mode, Free mode
Themed game: 6 themes available
Custom themes! You can create your own themes!
Custom music! You can add your own custom music (only wii version)

iBreast cancer research and treatment (8 May 2008)/ibr /br /Aberrant DNA hypermethylation of gene promoter regions has been increasingly recognized as a common molecular alteration in carcinogenesis. We evaluated the association between major clinicopathological features and hypermethylation of genes in tumors among 803 incidence breast cancer cases from a large population-based case-control study conducted in Western New York State. DNA samples were isolated from archive paraffin embedded tumor tissue and were analyzed for hypermethylation status of the E-cadherin, p16, and RAR-beta ( 2 ) genes using real time methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction. The frequencies of hypermethylation were 20.0% for E-cadherin, 25.9% for p16, and 27.5% for RAR-beta ( 2 ) genes. For postmenopausal women, hypermethylation of E-cadherin tended to be more likely in progesterone receptor (PR) negative than in PR-positive tumors (odds ratio (OR), 1.41; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.91-2.18). Hypermethylation of p16 tended to be more frequent among estrogen receptor (ER) negative cases than ER-positive cases (OR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.01-2.32). Hypermethylation of RAR-beta ( 2 ) gene was inversely associated with histological and nuclear grade of breast cancer.br /iMeng Tao, Peter Shields, Jing Nie, Amy Millen, Christine Ambrosone, Stephen Edge, Shiva Krishnan, Catalin Marian, Bin Xie, Janet Winston, Dominica Vito, Maurizio Trevisan, Jo Freudenheim/i

1) what do you guys think is an good deal?

2) does any one know how well the Dell Screen performs with the macbooks? (i heard there are alot of flickering problems with alot of different screens (does this seem to have it?)

3) how often do users use this monitor? is it worth the spending extra $360 CND (300 USD)?

4) the only reason for the upgrade on external monitor (besides the wow-cool-awsome factor) is the blacklevel difference between the new MB vs MBP... are they really that bad? (would i really care/notice if/unless i have the two side by side for constant comparision?)

4) is it necessary to do 4 GB upgrade? i mean i was using a laptop with 512 ram for over 2 years before i decided to upgrade it to 2gb ... n i think its a good strategy to make ur computer feel faster (i.e. wait for a while before upgrading just so that u feel (psychologically) that ur computer has been "Re-amped" and that its not slugging behind the latest laptops...

5) portability is not that big of an issue but still how bad is MBP in competition with MB (im a uni student (barely take my laptop to classes thou)) - the only time i need portability is when im taking my laptop to the library (which is usually during exam time)

lastly, an i mentioned before, im a student

things i do with my laptop:
downloading, unzipping rar files (regularly), looking but not sure whether or not ill follow up with video editing (perhaps youtubing), movie/tv watching, microsoft word
