Hi, guys! I'm Fiona Pearce, currently in the middle of summer before my first year in college. Yes, I managed to snag a spot in New Waulds University. Can you believe that? Well, that's how basically it is. And due to some unfortunate turn of events, with the ever present help of my very own pink unicorn, I'm currently on my way to my favorite cousin's beach resort. I didn't tell him, so don't expect him to be in this story. Sort of. As for him, well, his expertise is making others feel bad about themselves. But he's not all that bad. He can be sweet sometimes. His current location? Not telling. This is the second part of my/our story. As they say, there's really no such thing as goodbye. As for me, I just want some peace and quiet. I'm giving him space for him to realize things. I'm secretly wishing for a teary-eyed reunion—him welcoming me in his arms and we cry for hours. Okay, it'll never happen. And that's why this is happening. A beach. Another riddle to solve. This will be an exciting summer.

There are rhythms of action and response to all human-computer interactions. As we click, swipe, tap and sway to their beats, these rhythms intersect with the rhythms of our everyday lives. Perhaps they synchronize, perhaps they disrupt each other or maybe they dance together. Whatever their impact our experience of these rhythms will colour our experience of an interaction design. In playful interactive applications, rhythm is especially crucial because of the role it performs in building and maintaining the precarious spirit of play. Play involves movement and this movement has a rhythm that drives the experience. But what is the character of these rhythms of play and how can they be used ...
At the crossroads between the past and the present, the tiny township of Mendooran, NSW looks to the bridge over the Castlereagh River for new meaning.
Ross Parsons explores a selection of hotels, their architecture and often forgotten stories. Superbly readable, he draws from the unified relationship between the complex and contradictory hotel licensing laws and the social and cultural history of New South Wales.

Edward FitzGerald's ‘Rubáiyát’, loosely based on verses attributed to the eleventh-century Persian writer, Omar Khayyám, has become one of the most widely known poems in the world, republished virtually every year from 1879 to the present day, and translated into over eighty different languages. And yet it has been largely ignored or at best patronized by the academic establishment. This volume sets out to explore the reasons for both the popularity and the neglect.
