2011 Subaru Forester S Edition in Automotive

An exciting Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive Subaru Forester concept with some strong clues pointing to a new variant next year has been unveiled at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney. The Subaru Forester S-Edition concept, making its worldwide debut in Sydney, builds on the turbocharged following of the existing Forester XT.

Subaru Forester S-Edition’s turbocharged 2.5 liter 193 Kilowatt engine is 24 kW more powerful than the XT and produces 347 Newtonmetres of torque, up 27 Nm.

Other significant additions include:

- Paddleshift five-speed automatic gearbox

- Revised sports suspension

Variable Torque Distribution (VTD) All-Wheel Drive

- Exclusive styling accents

- STI 17-inch high lustre alloy wheels

- Alcantara seat trim with S-Edition logos

- Drilled alloy pedals

- Luminescent instruments with centre design unique to the model

- Subaru Forester S-Edition badging

    Nick Senior, Managing Director, Subaru Australia, said: “We’re delighted and honoured that Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI) have chosen Sydney for the worldwide unveil of this Forester concept.

“It points towards an exciting development in our Forester range early next year.

“Forester is firmly established as Australia’s best selling compact sports utility vehicle, with the most recent addition to the range being the diesel variants that are proving a sales winner for our All-Wheel Drive brand.

“There’s no denying Forester’s appeal to Australians in both urban and rural environments, so we think this concept will only add to the huge interest,” added Mr Senior.

Today’s unveil follows FHI’s recent announcement of its first all-new new engine in 21 years, which will debut on normally aspirated Foresters in Australia in early 2011.

The third-generation four cylinder horizontally opposed Boxer engine will launch as a 2.5 litre in Australia.

It features a longer stroke, compact combustion chamber and lighter moving parts.

Forester remains Australia’s best-selling compact sports utility vehicle year-to-date, with recently launched diesel variants drawing even more customers to the multi-award-winning model.

Since going on the market in June, diesel variants have represented 29 per cent of Forester sales.

Along with every vehicle in the Subaru range, Forester has an independent five-star rating for occupant safety from the respected Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP) and is protected by DataDot security

Game Reviews: Assassin"s Creed 2 in Game

Assassin’s Creed is undeniably one of the best games today. The concept, game play, and graphics made the first installment of this game stand out. However, there are a few weak points in Assassin’s Creed, and this is why the developers of the game released Assassin’s Creed 2. This game is definitely something that will glue you on your seats for weeks.

The story of Assassin’s Creed 2 takes place in 2012. Desmond Miles plays the role of the main character and with Lucy Stillman, they escaped from Abstergo Industries. Along the way, Desmond encounters Animus, a machine with the ability to recall lost memories. There Desmond finds that he is training to be one of the best assassins in the world.

In order to finish the game, you need to execute both attack and stealth abilities. The stealth has been explained in all aspects on the game, and it will be impossible for you to finish Assassin’s Creed 2 without the stealth.

The first installment is a great game, but all the weaknesses were fixed in this installment, making Assassin’s Creed 2 an almost perfect game. The stages of the game may be a bit tougher for most players, but this game offers a feature that will allow you to practice all the skills that you need in order to finish the game. Some of the skills that you need are picking pockets, hiding, assassinate, and fighting.

The only problem about this game is it can only be played with Xbox 360. I would give this game, 4.8 out of 5 stars for the graphics and audio and 5 out of 5 for the game play because it fixes all the loopholes in the first installment. Overall, I would give this game, 4.9 out of 5 stars. This is a game that I would definitely suggest to all hardcore gamers and Assassin’s Creed fans.

Halo My Mood, iPad App, Introduces a New Tactic for Self-help and Mental Power

Launched by J. Qadan, Halo my Mood is a new type of app that uses NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) techniques: Association, Disassociation and Swish. Available now for iPad, this app uses a unique approach to manage emotions with mood mapping & NLP powered hypnosis.

The concept of Halo my Mood is revolutionary, simply this app helps users control emotions and organize emotional thoughts. The user is required to create circles as thoughts; these thoughts are then coupled with emotions depending on the color chosen, which maps the users conscious thoughts into the tab screen. The real effort is focusing to attach a particular emotion to a circle. The app helps the user focus on emotions and thought by using voice instructions within alpha wave frequency. Alpha waves are one type of brain wave that put the user in relaxed mental state while still focused on instructions and imagination.

In addition to mapping thoughts into the screen to help users understand their state of mind, Halo my Mood also relies on NLP practical exercises. For example, using the NLP Swish technique, the user can take negative emotions into virtual prison cells to diffuse their power. For a successful practice, there is a long introduction to understand the concept and the steps. Mapping mood and emotional concepts is not new and different approaches to this idea have been around for some time; however the idea of controlling these emotions using finger tips on the screen is where Halo my Mood seeks to break new ground.

Halo my Mood is free to install and costs only to use the 3 sensory Swish techniques or the Prison Cells. The app is also loaded with great instrumental music as part of the NLP exercises as well as stunning photos to help someone stressed out escape the emotional trap.

This app helps the user to improve their concentration by stimulating the root of the sub-conscious mind; the iPad owner can develop enhanced control over their mind and increase motivation to reach their goals and objectives.

Probably NLP specialists can review the effectiveness of this app as it utilizes well- known NLP theories and practical exercises.

Halo my Mood, is available now for iOS devices in the App Store at:
