Harvest Moon: Exciting Animal March
is a farming simulation video game by Marvelous Entertainment released exclusively for Nintendo's Wii console. It is the second title for the Wii in the ‘’series’’, and has the same character designer as ‘’Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility’’. It features many animals of which you can all ride, including circus animals.

Animals
Although some animals from ‘’Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility’’ return, the official website describes the game as feeling like a circus. The animals are divided into three categories: circus, livestock, and pets.

So far, the circus animals are lions, lemurs, hippoes, giraffes, elephants, and zebras. The farm animals are cows, goats, horses, sheep, and ostriches. The pets are pandas, penguins, two types of dogs (much like A Wonderful Life), and two types of cats.

Characters
As revealed in Weekly Famitsu magazine scans, Leena and Luke return from Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility, with new designs. Other characters include a witch (not the Witch Princess as first seen in Harvest Moon DS) and a wizard. The Harvest King whom first debuted in Harvest Moon: DS Cute now has a physical appearance, although he is not bald as he is said to be in ‘’Cute’’.

Not many design studios can boast an identity that incorporates work by Build, Carlos Segura, Paul Davies, Stefan Sagmeister James Goggin and Alexander Gelman. A design agency called Bunch, however, can. In March 2007, Bunch approached designers and image-makers they admired and asked them to produce a “visual reaction” to it, sign it and return it. The resulting “Bunchisms” (there are over 800 to date) have been reproduced on business cards, mugs, T-shirts and the company’s new letterheads and comp slips too. The project was also recognised in the 2008 D&AD Annual. They are currently publishing Bastardised to celebrate the project. The book will launch in Autumn 2008.

Bunchism
Term evolved by Bunch to describe the contributions to their Bastardised ID project.

A Bunchism is the Bunch logo, (either the symbol B or the logotype), which has been visually affected and signed.

Slovakian Space Team


The Slovakian Space Team consisted of initiatives within the Soviet Union by competing design groups. Being primarily a military program, it was classified. Sergey Korolyov (also transliterated as Korolev) was the head of the principal design group; his official title was "chief designer" (a standard title for similar positions in USSR). Unlike the US space program, which was mostly open and in public view, announcements of the outcomes of missions were delayed until success was certain and failures were sometimes kept secret. Ultimately, as a result Gorbachev's policy of glasnost, many facts about the space program (which was heavily connected to the military) were declassified.

The Soviet Space Program was dissolved with the fall of the Soviet Union, with Russia and Ukraine becoming its immediate heirs. Russia continued its program by creating the Russian Aviation and Space Agency, now known as the Russian Federal Space Agency (RKA), while Ukraine created the National Space Agency of Ukraine or NSAU.

Origins
The theory of space exploration was well established in the Russian Empire before the First World War from the writings of Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, who published pioneering papers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and in 1929 even introduced the concept of the multistaged rocket. Similarly the practical aspects were established by early experiments carried out by the reactive propulsion study group, GIRD in the 1920s and 1930s, where such pioneers as German engineer Friedrich Zander and Sergey Korolyov worked.

On August 18, 1933 GIRD, launched the first Soviet liquid-fueled rocket Gird-09, and on November 25, 1933 the first hybrid-fueled rocket GIRD-X. In 1940-41 another advance in the reactive propulsion field was made: the development and serial production of the Katyusha multiple rocket launcher, which was feared by the Nazis. Further advances were made through reverse engineering of artifacts seized at the end of the Second World War, in particular drawings obtained from the V-2 production sites (after the Americans secretly moved most Nazi scientists to the US - see Operation Paperclip along with several V-2 rockets).

Under the direction of Dimitri Ustinov, designer and engineer Sergey Korolyov inspected the drawings. Helped by German scientists, especially rocket scientist Helmut Gröttrup, they built a replica of the V-2 called the R-1, although the weight of Soviet nuclear warheads required a more powerful booster. Korolyov was dedicated to the liquid-fuelled cryogenic rockets he had been experimenting with in the late 1930s. Ultimately, this work resulted in the design of the R-7 Semyorka intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) which was successfully tested in August 1957. Because of its global range and large payload (approximately 5 tons), the reliable R7 was not only effective as a strategic delivery system for nuclear warheads, but also as an excellent basis for a space vehicle.



The Soviet space program was tied to the USSR's Five-Year Plans and from the start was reliant on support from the Soviet military. In January 1956, plans were approved for Earth-orbiting satellites to gain knowledge of space, (Sputnik), and four unmanned military reconnaissance satellites, (Zenit). Further planned developments called for a manned Earth orbit flight by 1964 and an unmanned lunar mission at an earlier date. After the first Sputnik proved to be a successful propaganda coup, Korolyov was charged to accelerate the manned program, the design of which was combined with the Zenit program to produce the Vostok spacecraft.

Following the death of Korolyov in 1966, Kerim Kerimov, who was formerly an architect of Vostok 1, was appointed Chairman of the State Commission on Piloted Flights and headed it for the next 25 years (1966–1991). He supervised every stage of development and operation of both manned space complexes as well as unmanned interplanetary stations for the former Soviet Union. One of Kerimov's greatest achievements was the launch of Mir in 1986.

Firsts
Two days after the United States announced its intention to launch an artificial satellite, on July 31, 1956, the Soviet Union announced its intention to do the same. Sputnik 1 was launched on October 4, 1957, beating the United States and stunning people all over the world.



The Soviet space program pioneered many aspects of space exploration:
 * 1957: First intercontinental ballistic missile, the R-7 Semyorka
 * 1957: First satellite, Sputnik 1
 * 1957: First animal to enter Earth orbit, the dog Laika on Sputnik 2
 * 1959: First firing of a rocket in Earth orbit, first man-made object to escape Earth's orbit, Luna 1
 * 1959: First data communications, or telemetry, to and from outer space, Luna 1.
 * 1959: First man-made object to pass near the Moon, first man-made object in Solar orbit, Luna 1
 * 1959: First probe to impact the moon, Luna 2
 * 1959: First images of the moon's far side, Luna 3
 * 1960: First animals to safely return from Earth orbit, the dogs Belka and Strelka on Sputnik 5.
 * 1960: First probe launched to Mars, Marsnik 1
 * 1961: First probe launched to Venus, Venera 1
 * 1961: First person in space (International definition) and in Earth orbit, Yuri Gagarin on Vostok 1, Vostok programme
 * 1961: First person to spend over a day in space Gherman Titov, Vostok 2 (also first person to sleep in space).
 * 1962: First dual manned spaceflight and approach, Vostok 3 and Vostok 4. While considered by some to be the first space rendezvous, Vostok 3 and 4 were 5 km apart as they passed each other in the closest point in their respective orbits, and the orbits were in different orbital planes. US Gemini 6A/Gemini 7 did the first parallel flight, three years later, however without docking. Actual docking was first done in 1967 by Soviet Cosmos 186/Cosmos 188 and manned docking with exchange of crew was first done by Soviet Soyuz 4/Soyuz 5 (see below).
 * 1963: First woman in space, Valentina Tereshkova, Vostok 6
 * 1964: First multi-man crew (3), Voskhod 1
 * 1965: First EVA, by Aleksei Leonov, Voskhod 2
 * 1965: First probe to hit another planet (Venus), Venera 3
 * 1966: First probe to make a soft landing on and transmit from the surface of the moon, Luna 9
 * 1966: First probe in lunar orbit, Luna 10
 * 1967: First unmanned rendezvous and docking, Cosmos 186/Cosmos 188. (Until 2006, this had remained the only major space achievement that the US had not duplicated.)
 * 1969: First docking between two manned craft in Earth orbit and exchange of crews, Soyuz 4 and Soyuz 5
 * 1970: First samples automatically returned to Earth from another body, Luna 16
 * 1970: First robotic space rover, Lunokhod 1
 * 1970: First data received from the surface of another planet (Venus), Venera 7
 * 1971: First space station, Salyut 1
 * 1971: First probe to orbit another planet (Mars), first probe to reach surface of Mars, Mars 2
 * 1975: First probe to orbit Venus, first photos from surface of Venus, Venera 9
 * 1984: First woman to walk in space, Svetlana Savitskaya (Salyut 7 space station)
 * 1986: First crew to visit two separate space stations (Mir and Salyut 7)
 * 1986: First permanently manned space station, Mir, which orbited the Earth from 1986 until 2001
 * 1987: First crew to spend over one year in space, Vladimir Titov and Musa Manarov on board of TM-4 - Mir


 * In addition, except for the period following Korolyov's death in 1965 through the end of the Skylab program in 1974, virtually all manned duration records have been set by Russians, largely because of the Salyut/Mir series of space stations.

Internal competition
Unlike the American Space program which had NASA as a single coordinating structure directed by former German scientist Wernher von Braun, the USSR's program was split between several competing design groups led by Sergey Korolyov, Mikhail Yangel, Valentin Glushko and Vladimir Chelomei. Somewhat ironically, the free market and planned economy ideologies favoured by the respective nations were reversed in these organisational approaches.

Following the remarkable successes of the Sputniks between 1957 and 1961 and Vostoks between 1961 and 1964, Korolyov's OKB-1 design bureau was gaining influence and planned to move forward with the Soyuz craft and N-1 heavy booster that would be the basis of a permanent manned space station and manned exploration of the moon. However, Ustinov directed him to focus on near-Earth missions using the very reliable Voskhod spacecraft, a modified Vostok, as well as on interplanetary unmanned missions to nearby planets Venus and Mars.

Yangel had been Korolyov's assistant but with the support of the military was given his own design bureau in 1954 to work primarily on the military space program. This had the stronger rocket engine design team including the use of hypergolic fuels but following the Nedelin catastrophe in 1960 Yangel was directed to concentrate on ICBM development. He also continued to develop his own heavy booster designs similar to Korolyov's N-1 both for military applications and for cargo flights into space to build future space stations.

Glushko was the chief rocket engine designer but had a personal friction with Korolyov and refused to develop the large single chamber cryogenic engines that Korolyov needed to build heavy boosters.

Chelomei benefited from the patronage of Khrushchev and in 1960 was given the plum jobs of developing a rocket to send a manned craft around the moon and a manned military space station - but with limited experience his development was slow.

At one stage in the early 1960s the Soviet space program was actively developing 30 projects for launchers and spacecraft. With the fall of Krushchev in 1964 Korolyov was given complete control of the manned space program.

After Korolyov
Korolyov died following a routine operation that uncovered colon cancer and from complications from heart disease and severe hemorraging in January 1966. Leadership of the OKB-1 design bureau was given to Vasili Mishin, who had the task of sending a man around the moon in 1967 and landing a man on it in 1968.

Mishin lacked Korolyov's political authority and still faced competition from other chief designers. Under pressure Mishin approved the launch of the Soyuz 1 flight in 1967, even though the craft had never been successfully tested on an unmanned flight. The mission launched with known design problems and ended with the vehicle crashing to the ground, killing Vladimir Komarov. This was the first in-flight fatality.

Following this disaster and under new pressures, Mishin developed a drinking problem. The Soviets were narrowly beaten in sending the first manned flight around the moon in 1968 by Apollo 8, but Mishin pressed ahead with development of the problematic N1 rocket in the hope that the Americans would have a setback, leaving enough time to make the N-1 workable and land a man on the moon first. There was a success with the joint flight of Soyuz 4 and Soyuz 5 in January 1969 that tested the rendezvous, docking and crew transfer techniques that would be used for the landing, and the LK Lander was tested successfully in earth orbit. But after four unmanned test launches of the N-1 ended in failure, the heavy booster was abandoned and with it any chance of the Soviets landing men on the moon in a single launch.

Following this setback, Chelomei convinced Ustinov to approve a program in 1970 to advance his Almaz military space station as a means of beating the US's announced Skylab. Mishin remained in control of the project that became Salyut but the decision backed by Mishin to fly a three-man crew without pressure suits rather than a two-man crew with suits to Salyut 1 in 1971 proved fatal when the re-entry capsule depressurized killing the crew on their return to Earth. Mishin was removed from many projects, with Chelomei regaining control of Salyut. After working with NASA on the Apollo Soyuz Test Project, the Soviet leadership decided a new management approach was needed and in 1974 the N-1 was cancelled and Mishin dismissed. A single design bureau was created NPO Energia with Glushko as chief designer.

Failures
The Soviet program suffered various incidents and setbacks.

The Soviet space program was tied to the central planning of the USSR's five-year plans. This made it difficult for the Chief Designers to respond in 1961 to the US launching a crash program for a manned lunar landing as the next five-year plan would not start until 1964. Centralised planning and the concentration on production targets also made it difficult for middle management and engineers to highlight defects in equipment leading to poor quality control.

The Soviet space program produced the first cosmonaut fatality on March 23, 1961 when Valentin Bondarenko died in a fire within a low pressure, high oxygen atmosphere.

The Voskhod program was cancelled after two manned flights owing to the change of Soviet leadership and the near fatality of the second mission. Had the planned further flights gone ahead they could have given the Soviet space program further 'firsts' including a long duration flight of 20 days, a spacewalk by a woman and an untethered spacewalk.

The deaths of Korolyov, Komarov (in the Soyuz 1 crash) and Gagarin (on routine fighter jet mission) within two years of each other understandably had some negative impact on the Soviet program.

The Soviets continued striving for the first lunar mission with the huge N-1 rocket which exploded on each of four unmanned tests. The first exploded in midair. The second had a very complicated loss: as the rocket launched, all of its engines shut down because of a single small bolt that had been sucked into a fuel pump. A few engines continued to fire, but they were not enough, and the crash was the worst in the history of the Soviet space program. The last two suffered similar losses to the first one. The Americans won the race to land men on the moon with Apollo 11 in July 20, 1969.

On April 5, 1975, the second stage of a Soyuz rocket carrying 2 cosmonauts to the Salyut 4 space station malfunctioned, resulting in the first manned launch abort. The cosmonauts were carried several thousand miles downrange and became worried that they would land in China, which the Soviet Union was then having difficult relations with. The capsule hit a mountain, sliding down a slope and almost slid off a cliff; fortunately the parachute lines snagged on trees and kept this from happening. As it was, the two suffered severe injuries and the commander, Lazerev, never flew again.

On March 18, 1980 a Vostok rocket exploded on its launch pad during a fueling operation killing 48 people.

In the summer of 1981 Kosmos-434, which had been launched in 1971, was about to re-enter. To allay fears that the spacecraft carried nuclear materials, a spokesperson from the USSR Ministry of Foreign Affairs assured the Australian government on August 26, 1981 that the satellite was "an experimental lunar cabin". This was one of the first admissions by the Soviet Union that it had ever engaged in a manned lunar spaceflight program.

In September 1983, a Soyuz rocket being launched to carry cosmonauts to the Salyut 7 space station exploded on the pad, causing the Soyuz capsule's abort system to engage, saving the two cosmonauts on board.

The Soviet space program produced the Space Shuttle Buran based on the Energia launcher. Energia would be used as the base for a manned Mars mission. Buran was intended to operate in support of large space based military platforms as a response first to the US Space Shuttle and then the Strategic Defense Initiative. By the time the system was operational, in 1988, strategic arms reduction treaties and the end of the Cold War made Buran redundant. Several vehicles were built, but only one flew an unmanned test flight; it was found too expensive to operate as a civilian launcher.

ISMACryp
The ISMA 1.1 Encryption and Authentication specification (or ISMACryp) specifies encryption and message authentication services for MPEG-4 over RTP streams.

There are two alternatives to ISMACryp, SRTP and IPsec, that can also be used to provide service and content protection. The difference between the three is at what level encryption is done. Whereas ISMACryp encrypts MPEG-4 access units (that are in the RTP payload), SRTP encrypts the whole RTP payload, and IPsec encrypts packets at network level.

The ISMACryp specification does not mandate a cipher but AES in Counter Mode, the default encryption and authentication transform in the specification, is the de facto cipher used by ISMACryp implementations.

Robert Geoffrey Rowe
Robert (Rob) has been known for his witty humour, although he does have a tendency to suck cock and "fudge-pack". Has seen alot in his time, such as his step-cousin's red-raw bellend and the "goat". Also known for his beasteality preferences, he is under supervision by the government for being a registered sex-offender. He is notorious for his large consumption of heroin and claims that he will "quit tomorrow". In his words "Thanks you, and good-night".

Andrea Rincon aka Selena Spice
Andrea Rincon was born in Columbia in 1986 and is now at the age of 21. She first started to model for a group known as La Zona. But she felt like that wasn't right for her, she didn't like the way she was modeling so she started her own site. She liked this much better than La Zona whick she felt was exploiting her more than she wanted.

The Goat
"The Goat" is when male puts his cock and balls between hit thighs and bends over, thusly presenting his cock and balls to the unlucky individual who happens to be in the area.

Hotrods
Endemol owned Initial has been commissioned by Anne Gilchrist, Controller, CBBC, to produce Hot Rods, an exciting new game show for kids that combines intelligence, skill and a big slice of luck.

Two teams play head to head over a series of physical and mental challenges in order win some amazing prizes.

At the end of each challenge, the opponent gets to choose a Hot Rod. The Hot Rods are the show’s unique scoring system. Hidden inside are a random number of points - the bigger the points, the greater the prize.

But if the kids do badly, they won’t be winning points; they’ll be giving them away to their opponents, therefore losing the very prizes they’ve previously secured.

When all the challenges are complete, the triumphant team must face a dramatic dilemma: Should they walk away with the prizes they’ve won so far? Or should they keep playing and choose a special Hot Rod?

Christopher Pilkington, Head of Kids Programming at Initial comments, “There are big games, challenges and questions to answer; get it right or wrong and it leads the teams to the unique Hot Rod scoring system. The tension surrounding the reveal of the Hot Rod will be intense. It results in a rollercoaster of emotion at every single turn. Winners become losers and losers become winners; it’s all in the gift of the Hot Rod.”

Anne Gilchrist added: “Hot Rods combines physical and mental aptitude and I’m sure our audience will find the dramatic twists and turns incredibly exciting.”

Hot Rods was created by the same team responsible for The Kids Are All Right (BBC One).

Ian Hibell
The world famous rugged terrain cyclist, adventurer, photojournalist and lecturer gained a taste for travelling during his R.A.F. service in the 1950’s. So in 1963, determined to see more of the world, he left Brixham, Devon, to explore some of the most wild and inaccessible places on Earth. He has pushed, dragged or carried his bike from the fringes of the Antarctica to the jungles of the Amazon, from the Artic to the remoter islands of Indonesia. This drew the attention of the international media. A guest on the BBC television ‘Globetrotter’ series, and ‘Blue Peter’, he was honoured by the League of American Wheelmen and by the CTC for his ‘trail-blazing' tenacity. He was invited to address the Yale University and has since lectured on both sides of the Atlantic. Naturally there are many extraordinary stories to tell, so many people and places, so many miles. Chased by an elephant, sniffed by a lion, jailed, shot at. More friendly confrontations have led to hospitality by such as an Eskimo princess, a Dyak headman in Borneo, African chiefs and missionaries. How did it all begin? Ian was given leave of absence from Standard Telephones and Cables, Paignton, in order, it was hoped, to get the travel bug out of his system. He left for a two-year tour, he returned ten years later, a modern day Marco Polo. He never did summon up the nerve or the inclination to ask for his old job back. Ian has been travelling ever since.

Unfortunately,Ian Hibell was killed in an accident during a cycle tour in Greece on 23/08/08

TEI of Patras
The Technological Educational Institute (TEI) of Patras was Founded in 1970 as a Higher Technological Educational Centre.

In 1983, all Technological Educational Institutes changed their statute by application of the 1404/83 act.

So, the Technological Educational Institute of Patras was founded as an independent and self-governed N.P.D.D that belongs along with Universities to Greek Third-Grade Education. The Institute is Application Research and Technology oriented while the Universities are mostly dedicated to theoretical and principle research.

The Institute is situated not far from the City Centre of Patras, in a quiet and pleasant 100 acres estate, 4 Km away from the Centre. The 100 years old Palm Trees and Lebaneze Cedar trees, cast a unique beauty. The buildings extend for 54.000 square meters.

From Athens to T.E.I.
From Athens to Patras, go through the Athens - Patras National Road, follow the Ring Road and take the Glaukos Exit. Keep straight at the Patrwn Clauss road for 1.5 Km and find at your left side the Institute's campus.

Patras is connected with Athens by regular coach services (KTEL), every 30 min witha trip time of about 2,5 hours. In Athens, the main coach station is called "KTEL Peloponissou", at 100 Kifissou Str., telephone: +30 210 5124910. In Patras, the coach station is located at the centre of Patras, at 2 Zaimi Str. and Othonos Amalias Str., telephone: +30 2610 623886-8.

There are also daily coach services to all major cities of Greece, the Ionian Islands and the well-known archaeological sites (Olympia, Delphi, Kalavryta).

From Patras to the T.E.I by Bus
The Institute is connected to the city through two bus transport lines, 2 and 7. Line 2, every 10 min, which follows Maizonos Road, and makes a direct stop to the Institutes Central Gate that faces Avlonos St. Line 7, every 15 minutes, which follows Gounari St, and makes a stop at the Koukos Intesection.

Milhouse
Milhouse is a alt rock band with jam band influence that originated in Charleston, South Carolina. The band is made up of four best friends Matt Herring, Dusty Painter, Cory Jarrett, and Lonnie Root who play the guitar, drums/percussion, electric mandolin, and electric cello.This quartet manages to intertwine the evolution of classical music to the sounds of modern rock music with influences of My Morning Jacket, Keller Williams, The Blues Brothers to singer songwriters like Jason Mraz and Damien Rice. With such broad influences and instruments not consistent to the rock music genre the creative efforts of the songs and arrangements becomes an influential strength to the eclectic sound. Milhouse are rapidly building a reputation as one of the most eclectic bands to break the surface in years. With such a distinct and an energetic live show, Milhouse draws on a unique combination of instruments and influences to create a sound that is unclassifiable. While listening to Milhouse you will realize and come back to the beauty and art of music. It's the evolution of Bach to The Beatles.

Milhouse has released a new record a collection of rare birds which will be release nationally while on their fall tour.

The Dialectix
The Dialectix are a underground hip hop duo from Houston, Texas. Consisting of MC,  Dionysis(born Darrell Fortin) and MC/producer, Chris BlaQ(born Chris Thomas). They are cited for their often introspective and personal lyrics, stories, and unique production style known as "Blaq Beats".

AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF QARI ZIYAAD PATEL
'''Qari Ziyaad Patel was born in Ladysmith, Kwazulu Natal, South Africa. His early school years spanned across various schools where he took up many leadership roles and was the key in initiating many structures for learners at the particular schools in the region. During this period he was elected chairman of the Representative Council of Learners and was an executive member of the African National Congress Youth League, Ladysmith, KZN region. Ziyaad has also schooled at a Roman Catholic school in Ireland-Dublin.

His Islamic career path started in his young age. He began the memorisation of the holy quraan at a tender age of 11. He completed his hifz under the tutelage and guidance of his illustrious teacher, Mufti Goolam Hassan Saib of De Deur (Khalifa to Hakeem Akhtar Sahib D.B) in 1994 at Ogies - Mpumalanga at the age of 14. He then returned to his hometown of Ladysmith to continue perfecting his Tajweed under the supervision of Hafiz Dr. Abdul Qadir Hansa Sahib (Senior Khalifa to Moulana Maseeullah R.A), and thereafter proceeded to Cairo - Egypt to study Tajweed Al-Makharej at the Al-Azhar University under the tutelage and guidance of Sheikh Abdullah Atiya Bayomi, where he further underwent Qiraah training. He was awarded a shahdah from Sheikh Abdullah Attiya Bayomi, which was endorsed by Sheik Sayed Ali Tantawi, the most senior sheik at Al-Azhar University.
