Love the idea but the execution is a joke. So you download the app and get exactly one crappy game, Pong, and you have to wade through dozens of other games just to find it and play it.
Then if you want to get one of the good classics you get is in a "4-pack" that includes 3 games you don't care about. So if you really want all the classics you are essentially forced to buy all 100 games for $20.
Soooo, how many games did you get originally for $20? What a lame gripe!
Personally, I couldn't stand to listen to the primitive sound effects for the whole length of the attached video... my ears! my ears!

How do you define a criminal act?
Criminal: a person who has committed a crime
Crime: an action or omission that constitutes an offense that may be prosecuted by the state and is punishable by law; illegal activities
1. Are the terrorists captured during firefights with US soldiers criminals or soldiers, and why?
2. If North Korea launched a missile against the USA tomorrow, is that a criminal act or an act of war, and why?
3. If Al Qaeda launched a missile against the USA tomorrow, is that a criminal act or an act of war, and why?
4. When the USA dropped nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in WW2, was that a criminal act or an act of war, and why?
5. When the Allied forces raised Dresden to the ground in WW2, was that a criminal act or an act of war, and why?
I don't really see your point here. But...
1. Saying a terrorist is a criminal or a soldiers is quite irrelevant. A terrorist in the USA who is trying to explode a bomb is a criminal. Also, being a soldier doesn't means you can't be a criminal.
2. Again, an act of war can be at the same time a criminal act. Suppose country X and Y are both countries in Europe, and X attacks Y because they felt like doing it, that is an act of war AND a criminal act. If Y attacks back, that is also an act of war, but not a criminal act, because they are defending themselves.
3. Same as #2. The only thing that could change is your perception of an "act of war". Is it only considered act of war when it happens between two countries? Or a group not related to any government attacking a country is also an act of war?
4. It depends. Was the USA defending themselves, or were they just doing it without any reason behind? This is a completely new topic, but if it helps for anything, Japan was the one who attacked first, without any real reason behind.
5. Same as #4.
If you justify torture to prevent death of innocent people, where do you draw the line? 1,000 people, 100 people, 1 person?
If it were up to me, one person would be enough. The line is not in the amount of people being saved, but in the fact that the person (criminal) who is behind this attack plans, has become a treat to the security of your people.
What if the person you are torturing is innocent?
I did said that I wouldn't support torturing innocent people.
What if your torture helps the terrorists recruit more terrorists and the result is more, not less, bloodshed?
What if not doing so (torture) means that the terrorist group achieves their objective, and continue doing the same again and again?
So lets do medical testing on criminals, thats ok right?
No, because what the criminals did has nothing to do with medical diseases. In the other hand, they did made something against the law in formulating or being part of a terrorist plan, of which they have knowledge. And that knowledge might lead you to prevent this terrorist act to be executed.

I tried stamping that pole out thats in front of the car but after comparing the photos it didn't look right to me. So I just left it. Screw it. I also tried that radial gradient tool to get that kind of sun flare effect. I don't think I'm doing it right.

That was the point of my initial posts, hindsight is 20:20, and learning off others experience/failures can be a good thing.
Considering it was one of the largest web advertising companies in the Southern Hemisphere, hardly a player you'd expect to take a fall and be out of business within 6months of contracting there.... It had massive backing, a large list of clients, and employed well over 750 staff in Australia alone.
Then the only thing to learn from this story, like I wrote, is be ready to explain yourself.
Though I understand where you're coming from, you also have to credit the fact there's an expectation of newbies to take every single job coming just because it pays rather than taking a strategic look instead of the day-to-day tactical vision.
Yes, that expectation is correct, and this is because early on one can't be anything BUT tactical. Your AUS story verifies that you should take a portion of payment up front, regardless, and stand tall for decisions you make. Period.
The kind of learning you are suggesting the OP acquire through reading and osmosis is, in fact, only attainable through direct experience. Rather, "newbies" should, instead of prematurely declining jobs on principle, take real steps to reduce the negative impact of numerous INEVITABLE failures through a few basic must-dos when taking on a job. 1) Get up front money, especially from an ostensibly capable client, 2) pay your own bills, 3) do two things at the same time if you're truly worried about "holes" in your CV, 4) don't worry about holes in your CV (see #3), because you need to learn how to EXPLAIN your failures, 5) do some real design.

It's funny how there's things in a University that are what I would only refer to as assume knowledge. Pricing, billings, building a cv and building a professional network are very much skimped over IMHO.
It wasn't until I started working in house as a creative I really got a good understanding of these processes, what I would suggest though is to buy this book. (http://www.amazon.com/Graphic-Designer-without-Losing-Expanded/dp/1568989830/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1300700008&sr=8-1-spell)
Pricing, I cannot repeat this enough charge how you think you should be paid. 3 hours for a web site mock-up for $75 wouldn't get me out of bed, your undercutting yourself and making yourself marketable to the low ballers.
Whatever your charging divide by 4, as a freelance that is your REAL hourly wages. So if you're charging $25 per hour you're real hourly wage is $6.25, workers are Burger King earn more.
Charging more will bracket yourself to a better class of client IMHO.
Hi. Thanks. I think your right. The solution may be for me to send the "hourly" thing the way of the dodo. Set prices will help protect me from chiselers who claim they can only afford so many hours.

I will say something about SPRINT. First off, that article is WRONG!
Baltimore, Maryland is the 1st SPRINT test market for 4G, but it's not even mentioned in that article! I know so because SPRINT is actively advertising it and it's been in other press reports. So how many other test markets did they miss in their alleged comparison of 4G vs. 3G I wonder?
Um, all of them, I guess. That test was carried out locally, since the local city, at that time, provided "4G" from the 3 tested providers. I'm not sure why that would be a problem for you. The only issue I have with it is that Tmob is not tested to cover all 4 national providers, perhaps that wasn't up and running in Detroit at the time. Maybe you'll like this?: http://www.rootmetrics.com/pr/reports/2011/20110320_Seattle_4G_Study.pdf
So, what magical speed does Sprint offer in Baltimore? Considering that they only claim maximum 6Mbps speed for their "4G" network, and that was achieved in the test, you shouldn't have any problem with it.
"4G" is the problem. As marketed:
Sprint (http://shop2.sprint.com/en/shop/why_sprint/4g/evo_plan_details.html): up to 6Mbps
AT&T (http://www.wireless.att.com/answer-center/main.jsp?t=solutionTab&ft=&ps=solutionPanels&locale=en_US&_dyncharset=UTF-8&solutionId=KB115947): up to 6Mbps
Tmob (http://t-mobile-coverage.t-mobile.com/4g-wireless-technology): up to 21Mbps (however, I never see test reports breaking 8Mbps)
VZW (http://network4g.verizonwireless.com/#/whatis4g): up to 12Mbps (but test reports show higher speeds)
Do you see anything amiss in the use of the same word for all that?

nope -- its GIVING users choice. why? remember, w/ iOS subscriptions, YOU get to decide who you opt-in to. you, the CUSTOMER.
And what is the innovation in this? You always had the option to decide (remember those checkboxes). I really don't see how Apple's solution is really different from the current situation.
