Summer Activities for Kids: 10 Non-Electronic Outings - (USA)
Reader Sue asked, “I have a seven year old daughter, can you suggest ways and means to keep her occupied during the summer holidays. I don’t want her to get hooked on to the TV or the hi-tech games.” I think this is a multi-faceted question, because there are many aspects to managing large amounts of free time for kids. In the first article, I covered summer camps , and in the next one I will cover limiting (undesirable) activities. This one will focus on finding activities for kids to do.

Internet Personalities #1 - (USA)
The Internet is a whole different world, separate from the real one that we all live in. It has its own quirks and its own jokes. The memes that have spawned countless nights of laughter and eye gouging have only increased as the years go on. Video games are marketable now and more and more people are talking on forums. The people in these two endeavors, once bunched together as simple social outcasts, have formed their own interpersonal realities that they live and embody here on the Internets.

Soccer And Fitness Some Info To Succeed. - (USA)
Interestingly that just a few decades ago a good football player didn’t know what the fitness is. I’m talking about the fact that in order to be a successful football player one shouldn’t spent hours in a gym. In our time everything has changed, players at the top level - and even some semi-pro soccer players - have strict training regimens, and the physiques to match. It’s true to say that in soccer fitness is now more important than ever.That’s the reason I decided to give you a piece of advic

iPhone TV: Top iPhone Apps for Live Streaming Television - (USA)
Earlier this year, Apple submitted a spec to the IETF for live streaming multimedia content over HTTP, leading some to suspect that a live video protocol would soon be making its way to iPhone and iPod devices. With the new 3.0 version of the iPhone OS, that HTTP live streaming protocol became a reality , and while there were already a handful of live video apps on the iPhone, they’re presumably now a lot better. This list is a round up of some of the live TV options available on the iPhon

The Morning Skate: Wings Get Behind Mule; B’s Behind 8 Ball - (USA)
After watching the two games last night in a local establishment, which was filled with hockey fans — and the local team wasn’t even playing — John Vogl of the Buffalo News writes in his blog this morning, “You just keep figuring the NHL playoffs can’t get any better. Then they do.” The headline reads “Best playoffs ever?” It’s a bit too early to answer that question, but it’s beginning to look that way. Each night, each game in each series is played at a great pace, with a high level of skill.

Guest Article: Deep Silver games for 2009 in NYC - (USA)
Deep Silver brought their impressive 2009 line up of games to New York City on August 5th, and I was lucky enough to be in attendance. The titles included were; Cursed Mountain for the Wii, Risen for the PC/360, Fritz Chess for the DS/PS3/Wii, and Mytran Wars for the PSP. The event was reasonably crowded, with Cursed Mountain and Risen drawing the most attention, and with very good reason. After muscling my way through the crowd of people in awe of Cursed Mountain’s creepy, yet remarkably e

Great Games - (USA)
Over the Christmas holiday’s someone suggested we play a game we use to play in college (Sardines). My first reaction was “we are too old for that and “it will be boring”. I realized that I was displaying the first symptoms of old age. We went ahead and played the game and had a great time. So as a reminder to myself of the importance of having fun, we’ve compiled this list of fun group games. If you have any suggestions, please add them in the comments. 1. Sardines This is kind of

Socialisation? It's difficult.. - (USA)
.. sometimes I have to break off from chatting to my friends to see to the children! No, seriously, I love my children and I socialise with them all the time. We play, eat, live and work together at home, most days of the week. We are certainly, like most home educators, closer than your average family. But when we go out to mingle with other people, you wouldn't necessarily get that impression. Especially if there's some child-oriented activity going on, the children are happy to leave me
