Where’s My Car? Most people are all too familiar with forgetting where they parked their car. Whether or not you’re one of these people, read on to learn about writing a location-aware Windows Phone app that can map, route, take pictures, and save state between invocations. Working with mobile phones gives you access to a completely different form factor, as well as a completely different set of functionality compared to web and desktop development environments.

Introduction
Logic Programming 1 - Computer Science 61A Fall 2007
Logic Programming 1. From CS 61A The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs - Fall 2007. Introduction to programming and computer science. This course exposes students to techniques of abstraction at several levels: (a) within a programming language, using higher-order functions, manifest types, data-directed programming, and message-passing; (b) between programming languages, using functional and rule-based languages as examples. It also relates these techniques to the practical prob

Reading Scientific Images: The Iconography of Evolution
In the Life Sciences, images are not mere illustrative supplements to written text,s but are indispensable for communicating complex ideas and concepts; and, if visual literacy doesn't develop naturall,y many will battle to grasp the full meaning of scientific images. Section 1 - Visual Literacy: What is visual literacy and why should we study it? How are scientific images created? Types of scientific images? Section 2 - Evolutionary Iconography: Amoebatoman, The Tree of Life, The Double Helix -
