Relax Apps

It is nearing the end of final exam week...and perhaps it is time for you to take a much needed break before hitting the next stack of study notes.

For this well deserved break, I offer a short list of free iOS apps that will hopefully assist with the relaxation process.

If you are looking for a series of relaxing sound apps, try Naturespace or Sleep Bug. Naturespace has a limited selection of nature sounds in holographic audio (use your headphones) ranging from songbirds to rain.  Other sounds are available for purchase, but the selection they have is rather nice.

The Sleep Bug app (for iOS/Windows Phone 7) offers the ability to customize your relaxation experience.  Simply click on the scene you wish to enter, then apply any of the various sounds and/or instruments available in that scene. 

Alternately, Fluid Monkey (for iOS and Android) provides a visual and interactive approach to relaxation.  This app essentially allows the user to play with liquid and paint in a variety of fun ways.  

If you are looking for a way to unwind and relax, try one of these apps or search for a different relaxation app in the app store.

Campus Announcement -- New SU Site

IT'S LAUNCH TIME! UNIVERSITY WEBSITE UNVEILS NEW LOOK THIS WEEKEND

 

The Office of Marketing and Communications (OMC) is proud to announce that the new and improved www.su.edu will launch this Saturday, Nov. 10. The website features updated navigation, more interactive pages and new images and videos.

As a reminder, content entry will close at 5 p.m. today, Nov. 7, and will reopen Sunday, Nov. 11.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM IC

Have you received an email from a @su.edu account with an empty body and just a .pdf attached to it?  

These are virus PDFs. The From: field is spoofed so they are not coming from a Shenandoah University e-mail account.

Our Information Security Officer has adjusted our filter to block these e-mails, empty body with a PDF attachment.

If you opened the PDF please check what version of Acrobat you are using. The virus exploits "Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.x before 8.2.1 and 9.x before 9.3.1". If you are running one of the vulnerable versions of Adobe please let the Help Desk know and we will have your system scanned.

The best practice is to NOT open attachments from unexpected/unsolicited e-mails. Macs using "Preview" to open the PDF are not vulnerable to this attack.
