Fracking Our Way into Oblivion …. Conclusion
This series has examined hydraulic fracturing or, as it is more commonly known, fracking, and some of the types of harm it is doing to the environment. We didn't even touch on the threat of induced seismicity (increased earthquake activity) that seismologists have associated with the business of fracking; that will have to be a topic for another..

We are so happy with this purchase!
Joanna from New York, NY – Verified Buyer
I bought the chair as a Christmas present for my finicky husband. He'd been in the market for a home office chair for a year but couldn't find anything of quality that he liked within a reasonable price range. When my sister (my elf) found Jesper's Camilla Ergonomic Office Chair online at Wayfair.com, I knew we had found The Chair. My husband's a handyperson, I'm not. But putting this chair together was easy, with simple instructions that are illustrated. I was able to build a strong and sturdy chair in under half an hour, all screws and the tool to put it together are provided. The seat cushion is firm and comfortable and the mesh back supportive. The height is a breeze to adjust, and you can also lock in the chair to prevent it from leaning back. And the chair's wheels roll smoothly. I stuck a huge red bow on the chair, and was my husband surprised by his gift by the tree. And he loves it! Really, really loves it!
Says what it is. Is what it says...
David from nashville, TN – Verified Buyer
...what more could you ask Easy to assemble too. You just screw on the handles and casters. It is kind of brutal to unpack. That's because it is nicely packaged to avoid shipping damage. It's not something that should negatively affect your purchases decision, but is just something you should be prepared for.
Good service
Rich from OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – Verified Buyer
The first package arrived damaged at the corners. Called Wayfair and they said they'll ship me another one and just to keep the damaged one. The next one came in worse shape, with box badly damaged so I refused shipment. Was hesitant to order another one but the lady convinced me to try again and she'll inform the warehouse to check package before shipment. This time the item arrived in pristine condition. The same Fed Ex delivery guy was also very careful in delivering.
Great product and fast shipping.
Jace from Salt Lake City, UT – Verified Buyer
The product arrived quickly and was relatively easy to set up. The only issue I had were some of the holes on the bottom of the filing cabinet were not drilled. Nor were four of the holes to secure the return. Other than that, the product looks and feels amazing. You can tell that the construction is sound and the materials are well made. I would highly recommend this product.
Great ergonomics, easy assembly
Dustin from South Carolina – Verified Buyer
I spent a while looking for a good deal on a quality desk chair, and this is it! This is a very stylish chair, and I love how you can select what color you want the mesh to be! It was pretty straightforward assembly, and it is very comfortable for long-term use. Definitely worth the money!
Cherie from Minneapolis, MN – Verified Buyer
The file cabinet was easy to assemble and looks great. It is sturdy and the spacing is just what I needed. I would recommend it highly.
Great storage!
Mary from Culver City, CA – Verified Buyer
We needed a locking file cabinet for our office that would fit under the desk. This is perfect. Easy to assemble and very sturdy. Would purchase again.
Fit under Jesper desk
Rich from OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – Verified Buyer
The item arrived pre-assembled except for the handles (very easy) and the roller casters (not so easy as some of the pre-drilled holes don't line up quite right). Fit very nicely under the Jesper desk.
The best cabinet i could have purchased!
Ellie from Aliso Viejo, CA
Extremely sturdy and of great quality! Love the locking ability to disallow little hands to reach in :)
Great product, matches the description. Great price.
Julie from Sacramento, CA – Verified Buyer– Top 1000 Reviewer
I bought two of these for my home office. My home office is on the smaller side, and the mesh backs make the chairs not seem as obtrusive. The chairs have not cured by low back issue, but they do not exacerbate it. Sadly, my cat has taken over the second chair. Highly recommend.

Thanks to Pace London for providing scans of the showcard for Derek Boshier's spring 1965 exhibition at Robert Fraser Gallery in Mayfair's Duke Street.
Back in Duke Street: Derek Boshier at Robert Fraser Gallery 1965 + Whitford Art Gallery 2015
A Strong Sweet Smell Of Incense: Derek Boshier at the Robert Fraser show
Derek Boshier's 1966 work Sam Spade is given prominence in A Strong Sweet Smell Of Incense, the exhibition dedicated to the connoisseurship of the late art dealer Robert Fraser.
Boshier was a client until he foreswore painting for a decade or more in 1968. This was a particularly difficult period for Fraser, who was jailed over the infamous Redlands drug bust at Rolling Stone Keith Richards' house the previous year.
Boshier has recounted how he became so frustrated over Fraser's unwillingness to pass on payments in the 60s that he and his friend, the poet Christopher Logue, once broke into the Duke Street gallery and retrieved works Fraser had refused to release in lieu.
The Return Of The Saint: Cameo by The Saints + directed by Peter Medak at The Marquee…but is that Shinny in Seditionaries?
Currently doing the rounds of the punk groups on various social networking sites is this clip from the cheesy 70s revival of classic 60s British television series The Saint.
Entitled The Arrangement, episode nine of The Return Of The Saint was broadcast on November 5, 1978 and starred such UK TV drama stalwarts as Carolyn Seymour, seen here looking glam in a car in Soho's Wardour Street outside The Marquee where the great Aussie band The Saints are crashing through Swing For The Crime from their Eternally Yours album.

Anita Pallenberg: 1967 and all that
A couple of years back I interviewed Anita Pallenberg – who celebrated her birthday yesterday – for Mojo magazine.
The subject was the scene in and around the King's Road in 1967. Crisp and funny, Pallenberg was just as buzzed about the present; visiting Karl Lagerfeld in Paris the next day, her interests in gardening and photography, the bargains to be found in charity shops and the notion of a collection based on the MA show from her studies at Saint Martins in the 90s.
A few months later, with her friend Anna Sui, Pallenberg participated in a rock & roll event I organised at the Port Eliot LitFest; after the show it was an honour to give her a vintage Vive Le Rock tee,which wore with élan.
Here's a refreshed and re-edited chance to appreciate this bewitching figure whose combination of innate style, fashion-savviness and earthy sexuality brought Continental sophistication to Swinging London and turned it on its head:
Gawky gamins and dolly-birds melted into insignificance in the presence of the impressive 21-year-old who arrived in London in 1965 having already studied graphic design in her native Rome, assisted Vogue photographer Gianni Penati and modelled in Paris.

I have a MySQL (MyISAM) database with different tables. Lets take for example the database "rh955_omf" with the following tables:
- signal (600 MBytes, 17925 entries)
- picture (5'355 MBytes, 17925 entries)
- velocity (680 MBytes, 4979 entries)
Actually I'm just concentrating onto the signal table entries. Therefore I want to describe this table a bit better. It's created as following:
CREATE TABLE rh955_omf.signal(MeasNr TINYINT UNSIGNED, ExperimentNr TINYINT UNSIGNED, Time INT, SequenceNr SMALLINT UNSIGNED, MeanBeatRate SMALLINT UNSIGNED, MedBeatRate SMALLINT UNSIGNED, MeanAmp1 MEDIUMINT UNSIGNED, MeanAmp2 MEDIUMINT UNSIGNED, StdDeviationAmp1 DOUBLE, StdDeviationAmp2 DOUBLE, MeanDeltaAmp MEDIUMINT UNSIGNED, Offset INT UNSIGNED, NrOfPeaks SMALLINT UNSIGNED, `Signal` MEDIUMBLOB, Peakcoord MEDIUMBLOB, Validity BOOL, Comment VARCHAR(255), PRIMARY KEY(MeasNr, ExperimentNr, SequenceNr));
I load the values from this table with the following command:
SELECT MeanBeatRate FROM rh955_omf.signal WHERE MeasNr = 3 AND ExperimentNr = 10 AND SequenceNr BETWEEN 0 AND 407
If I load the whole "MeanBeatRate" row (int 16 values) for the first time, it takes me about 54 seconds (MeasNr = 1..3, ExperimentNr = 1..24, SequenceNr >= min AND <= max). If I load it again, it takes 0.5 seconds (cache).
So what I want to do is speeding up the database. Therefore, I created some new databases, but didn't put all the tables into the different databases:
- rh955_copy_omf: signal table
- rh955_p_copy_omf: signal table, picture table
- rh955_v_p_copy_omf: signal table, picture table, velocity table
I restarted the computer and loaded all the "MeanBeatRate" values from the different tables. That gave me the following time:
- rh955_omf: 54s (as mentioned before)
- rh955_copy_omf: 3.1s
- rh955_p_copy_omf: 12.9s
- rh955_v_p_copy_omf: 10.7s
So it looks like the time to load the data is dependent of the other tables in the database. Is this even possible (because I'm just searching in the "signal" table)? And what is even more confusing: In the table "rh955_v_p_copy_omf" I have all the data I also have in the original table, but the performance is ~5 times better. Any explanation for that behavior? I would be thankful for any help because I'm really stuck at this point and need to increase the database performance...
Additional information: In one case, I stored the data in the table with the command "LOAD DATA INFILE 'D:/Exported MySQL/rh955/signal.omf' INTO table rh955_omf.signal" (that's the case where loading data is slow), in the other cases I stored the data line by line. Maybe that's the case why the performance is different? If yes, what's the workaround to store data from a file?

Reblooming lilacs: The hype and the reality(Read article summary)
Josee and Bloomerang lilacs are sold as rebloomers, which will flower in late summer and fall as well as in spring. How do they really perform in the Midwest?
Courtesy of Betty Earl
Treasured for their gorgeous, lush blooms and incredibly intoxicating fragrance, lilacs are a longtime garden favorite, dating back to the mid-1700s when both Thomas Jefferson and George Washington grew them in their gardens.
A sentimental spring garden favorite of mine, the modestly named common lilac (Syringa vulgaris) has been the one bush I couldnŌĆÖt imagine not growing. Treasured for their big, flamboyant, oh-so-fragrant panicles of trumpet-shaped blossoms, lilacs are fairly carefree plants, often living for decades in the landscapes.
Some of my tried-and-true favorites, plants that enchanted generations of gardeners before me, include ŌĆśCharles JolyŌĆÖ, a very prolific, very fragrant wine-red double flowered beauty; ŌĆśSensationŌĆÖ, dark red-purple blossoms edged in white; and ŌĆśBeauty of MoscowŌĆÖ (Syringa vulgaris ŌĆśKrasavitsa MoskvyŌĆÖ), a stunning beauty with double white flowers.
A newcomer to my garden, primarily because yellow-colored blossoms are an oddity in the lilac family, is the only yellow-flowered lilac (actually more like a very pale almost creamy yellow), ŌĆśPrimroseŌĆÖ.
Finding a lilac blooming in fall
I admit that I fancy the oddities of the plant world. So I canŌĆÖt help but notice when reading current gardening magazines, the numerous ads for the ŌĆ£new reblooming ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ lilacŌĆØ. A reblooming lilac! But as one of my garden club friends put it ŌĆ"ŌĆ£Is there such a thing as a reblooming lilac?ŌĆØ
From my personal experience, I can say: Reblooming? Yes. New? No ŌĆ"and yes!
I acquired my first ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ lilac some 17 or 18 years ago, while visiting a childhood friend in Canada. Plant nuts that we were (and still are), we spent our days traipsing through nurseries, until that fateful day when, without any great expectations, we stopped at a nursery specializing in lilacs. Nosing around, we were instantly attracted by a familiar, heady sweet fragrance that could only be given off by a lilac bush in full bloom.
Yet it was September, so how was this possible? Laughing, we joked that it must be one of our beloved grandmothers, both staunch fans of lilac perfume, who surely had just passed this way.
Following our noses around a corner, we stood ŌĆō amazed and dumb-founded ŌĆō eyeball to lavender-pink blossoms with ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ in full, magnificent bloom.
She was covered top to bottom in hundreds of short trusses of blowsy flowers, that not only delighted our senses but, obviously, those of the myriad of butterflies flitting about, as well. They were as smitten with the plant as we were.
We must have been a sight, standing there, mouths gapping, staring at what seemed to be, for lack of a better explanation, a horticultural miracle.
There is no other way to describe that encounter. It was lust at first sight!
I could hardly wait to get ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ back home to the western suburbs of Chicago, envisioning drinking in the heady fragrance of the bush on hot summer days, and basking in the beauty of vases full of gorgeous lilac blooms in fall. Oh, wasnŌĆÖt I going to be the envy of the neighborhood?
Unfortunately, it hasnŌĆÖt worked out quite that way.
What I expected, what the cultural tag promised me, was a four-to-six-foot bush with tons of big, indispensable sweet-scented blossoms early in the spring on the first flush of bloom, followed by sporadic blooms throughout summer, and one more major flush when the weather cooled.
What I got was a dwarf lilac of fragrant but small, lavender-pink flowers in spring ŌĆō in the nearly two decades that IŌĆÖve enjoyed ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ, only twice has she rewarded me with a truly sizeable flush of fall blossoms.
As for summer ... apparently, she never read the same tag as I did, for sheŌĆÖs never given me more than a few sporadic flowers here and there during our incredibly hot, muggy dog days of summer.
In those first few years, I would call my friend in Canada to compare notes. In July, she described the sweet fragrance of the blossoms as she gardened under the shrub (while I drooled with envy), and in September, she gloated with one-upmanship as she picked enough stems for bouquets.
Was my ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ lacking somehow? I asked myself. She seemed to have settled in, looked healthy, grew several inches each year, so where were the myriad of promised blossoms?
But if truth be told, I should have known better.
Like most lilacs, ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ thrives in cool weather. So in the Pacific Northwest, the Rockies, New England, and Canada (and other locales with reasonably cool summers) she will put on a magnificent show, reblooming three ŌĆō even four times ŌĆō during a growing season.
But here in the Midwest, our muggy, hot days and nights just put her in a funk.
I did eventually purchase another bush, planting it closer to the house where it gets morning sun and afternoon shade. Though I now accept the fact that there will be no strong waftings of that heady scent in summer, I treasure the few sporadic blossoms she puts forth during those rare cool(er) summers.
The new kid on the block
However, there is a ŌĆ£newŌĆØ reblooming lilac on the market these days: ŌĆÖBloomerangŌĆÖ purple lilac (Syringa ŌĆśPendaŌĆÖ) from Proven Winners.
I have only one yearŌĆÖs worth of experience with this still-small plant, but so far, so good.
Unlike ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ, which needs to be pruned after flowering, ŌĆśBloomerangŌĆÖ does not. What blossoms I had last year were bigger and deeper in color than ŌĆśJoseeŌĆÖ and, thankfully, produced more blossoms in late summer, which continued until frost.
So, as ŌĆśBloomerangŌĆÖ matures, maybe I will finally be rewarded with those longed-for armloads full of fragrant, blowsy lilac stems every fall!

Linux.conf.au - Day Four
Day four of the conference opened with a keynote entitiled "Hackers at the End of the World" by Glyn Moody. Glyn explored the history of sharing in science and art as inspired by the open source movement, and contrasted this with the anti-sharing 'my gain is your loss' culture of the global financial community. Glyn postulated that the sharing and indeed sharing of sharing that characterises the FOSS community held a tantalising glimpse of a solution to the global financial and environmental crisis.
Jeremy Allison brought forward an extremely provocative look at Microsoft's overtures to the open source community with "The Elephant in the Room - Microsoft and Free Software". Jeremy took the audience through Microsoft's duality in recent times in attempting to reconsile with the open source community at the same time working against them in the political and regulartory arena.
Jonathan Oxer delighted attendees with a talk on "Tux on the Moon", showcasing the Lunar Numbat project and it's efforts to partner with the Google Lunar X-Prize team White Label Space to "... put a Linux powered robotic Australian marsupial on the moon".
The day was concluded by a Professional Delegates Networking Session at the Wellington Opera House. The final day of the conference will open with a short keynote by Nat Torkington and a series of lightning talks, with the conference Penguin dinner closing the evening activities.

Beach paradise villa in Buzios, Rio de Janeiro
From $216 / night
Description from the owner
Description from the owner
Bedrooms: 3/
Bathrooms: 3/
Sleeps: 10/
Type: Villa
A rustic style and romantic villa right on the tranquil Rasa beach in Buzios. Beautiful and very private location with amazing, unblocked sea views. Excellent holiday option for a family with children, a group of friends or an artist soul looking for a quiet hideaway. The villa is furnished with antique, old and Buzian style furniture and a lot of artifacts and paintings around the world.
The ocean is just five meters away from our garden gate. Spacious tropical garden with flowers, fruit trees and a herbal garden. Two decks, hammocks, sauna and a basic grill. (If you like to use the sauna, please inform the villa caretaker an hour before to prepare it for you).
Two suites (with AC), one quest bedroom with a ceiling fan. TV-room (with Sky cable/CNN, movie and sport channels etc), living-dining room and a fireplace room. Kitchen is fully equipped. Bed-linen and towels (but not for beach use) are provided. Bed-linen are not changed and washed unless quest opts for maid service (washing machine is available). Two LED/LCD-TVs, stereos (pen-drive or radio only), DVD (in the bedroom).
A caretaker couple lives at the compound (24hrs) in their own building and opens and closes the gate for quests, cleans the garden etc.
Maid service (cooking, cleaning, washing) is available for modest extra cost. Payment is done directly to the maid. Our maid speaks only Portuguese. Contract and scope of work, supervision, compensation is discussed between the renter and the maid, and salary is paid as a "diarista" /day worker at the end of each day.
If requested well in advance, we can provide an USB internet modem. The strength of the signal varies. The renter needs to bring his/her own laptop (w USB port). The villa has normally 3/4-G signal, but the strength varies.
Rasa center is 2 minutes by car (supermarkets, pharmacy, bakery and internet cafes) and Búzios historical center and Geriba beach is 15-20 minutes away by car.
Nearby (5 minutes by car) is a 18-hole golf course. Buzios offers also excellent facilities for water sports and fishing. Minivans and buses pass by the villa (300 meters). Taxis are available (some 40 reais to the center).
Rasa beach is good for swimming, kite-surfing and also for fishing. Turtles are commonly spotted at the end of Rasa beach. The beach can be windy at times, but also calm.
Distance to Rio de Janeiro is roughly 2 - 2,5 hours by car (by bus some 3 hours). Rental of a car is recommended as Búzios has 22 amazing beaches to visit and distances from on to another are long. Car rental companies are located in the center.
The villa owners keep pets (dogs) inside, while staying at the villa and it is rented out as a pet friendly property.
The villa is rented on self-catering basis. We try to provide some items for the first day (drinking water, soap, toilet paper etc). After that it is the responsibility of the renter to cover all above mentioned costs. ...Read more

"Excellent Escape!"
My girlfriend and I stayed at this house along with another couple and it was perfect for what we were looking for our of our Buzios vacation. The house was very well kept and decorated in a very warm & inviting way. We loved being able to walk out the back right onto the beach and also being 10 minutes from the center of all the nightlife & shopping.
Seppo the owner was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was very responsive to our questions before, during and even after our stay!
I recommend this property if you are looking for a great balance between tranquility and accessibility. Close enough to city center to let loose but far enough to enjoy the comfort of a large space and beachfront sunsets....
Seppo also has a amazing Dalmation dog who won all of us over!

"Such a great place to spend a holiday"
This beautiful villa on the tranquil Rasa beach was a perfect place for a relaxing holiday. I enjoyed so much the nice garden and walking on the beach. The caretaker, Olivia, took such a good care of us and I will miss the caipirinhas and barbecue dinners she prepared for us. This is a quality villa with all the elements I value when spending a good holiday. Thank you, Seppo and thanks also to Olivia!

"great holiday hideaway at Rasa beach"
Most relaxing ambience, great villa decor, peaceful and tranquil location right on the Rasa beach just few meters from the ocean. Still conveniently located just couple of minutes from Rasa supermarkets and services and some 15 minutes from Buzios historical centre. Excellent and warm villa caretaker service, which made our holidays. We enjoyed both her cooking and caipirinhas. Felt like a real home, not like a rental property.

"Hermosa casa, sobre la playa, enorme y cómoda"
Fuimos con parte de mi familia, éramos mi mujer, mis 2 hijos, mi madre y mi hermana. Aún así la casa nos quedaba grande... súper cómoda! 3 habitaciones grandes, todas con un baño, un living / comedor / sala de estar gigante! galería y jardín y abriendo una puerta de madera la playa!!
el lugar está excelentemente decorado, con objetos de distintos lugares del mundo.
el lugar es alejado del ruido, ideal para familias que buscan tranquilidad pero estar cerca del centro de Buzios. Tiene a 2 minutos de auto mercados, farmacias, etc.
Un párrafo aparte para Olivia y Sebastián, los caseros. La atención y la hospitalidad son formidables! Atentos a todas las necesidades que tuviéramos, buenas recomendaciones.
Unas excelentes vacaciones!

"Wonderful Vacations"
we stayed in this wonderful villa on September 2012. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. It is a spacious, well decorated beautiful house. Just on rasa beach (you open a small gate on the garden and you are stepping on the sand!) Located in a quiet neighborhood. With a nice garden, barbecue, and sauna!
You also have the chance of hiring the service for cooking and cleaning of the nicest lady we met in Brazil (Olivia)
I totally recommend this house.

"Didn't want to leave!"
My parents and I stayed at this house for 4 days and we fell in love with it!
The house is decorated with bits and pieces from around the world so we felt right at home :)
It's spacious, great garden friendly housekeeper, sweet guard dog, and right on the beach! We wished we could have taken more advantage of the house and spent more time in it, it's garden and it's practically private beach, but there are so many beautiful beaches in Buzios that we could not resist going to as many as possible.
What we did not enjoy were the mosquitoes and all the bugs (bring products!), some nets on the windows would be nice so we could enjoy the lovely night temperatures without unexpected visitors, at least in the rooms, but I guess it's part of the local fauna.
Also we terribly missed having internet access!

Response from the owner, seppo - 04/17/2012
Hi Raquel
I am glad to hear you had a good stay and we truly hope you will come back one day!
All rooms are provided with mosquito screens, which quests need to put in place, if they open the windows. Also as we are in the middle of the nature, we have small bugs, like tiny ants. That´s why we encourage quests never to leave food on the table, kitchen etc, and use the maid service.
The villa is rented on self catering basis, and mosquito sprays are available in all supermarkets (we usually keep some first aid stock),
Best regards, Seppo

"Hanging out at the Villa on the ocean in Buzios"
The Villa was perfect for Brazil. It was a beautifully furnished home with a helpful caretaker. The sauna was nice to hang out and the interior of the villa was like a art museum. I cooked every night and had fresh fish and produce from the locals. It only took a few days to get the routine of hanging out at the beaches and local shops during the day and the villa in the evening.

"Perfect place to relax"
This lovely villa is a perfect place to spend a relaxing holiday. The spacious house is decorated with taste and the Rasa beach just in front of the house is great for swimming and walking. We also enjoyed playing golf at the nearby Buzios Golf Club; it was not at all crowded on weekdays. The housekeeper took such a good care of us and made our staying easy and comfortable. I highly recommend this villa to anyone who wants to spend a relaxing and pleasant holiday in beautiful Buzios.

"Perfect beach house"
This villa is a great, peacefull retreat. It's right on Rassa Beach, with a gate that opens right onto the beach. It's a little outside of centro, which can be a great thing on busy weekends when traffic gets crazy. The modern house has comfortable bedrooms , nice bathrooms, and a full kitchen. It's also a gated compound, with a nice housekeeper who helps with anything you want; from laundry to cooking.
You can sleep all night listening to the waves of the ocean breaking on the beach outside of the bedrooms. The owner is very helpfull, and every process of the rental was amazingingly simple. Popular Geriba beach is about a 5 minute drive away. We really enjoyed this villa, and would reccomend it highly.

"Glorious beach house in quiet but convenient location"
We booked this lovely villa on line after a lengthy search for suitable properties that could accommodate 3 young children and offer space, access to beaches and shops, and a family-friendly relaxing atmosphere.
The owner was extremely helpful in giving advice, checking that we had all we needed, and ensuring that the housekeeper kept us watered and fed (she was an absolute star and we all loved her).
We would highly recommend this beautiful house. It is tastefully decorated, has all the necessary amenities to make it a 'home from home', easy access to beaches and shops, and - the children's favourite - animals to keep us company.
We had a wonderful holiday, thank you Seppo & Olivia & co.

Buffalo, NY (Sports Network) - Thomas Vanek had two goals and three assists to help the Buffalo Sabres open their season with a 5-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Sunday.
Jason Pominville also had three assists, while Steve Ott, Cody Hodgson and Tyler Myers all scored for the Sabres, who missed the playoffs for the third time in the past five seasons after an 89-point performance in 2011-12. Ryan Miller stopped 27-of-29 shots.
"It definitely feels good to start the season with a win, especially since it's going to be a quick season," said Myers. "The fans have been pretty restless here the last few months so it was nice to get this for them, too."
Sean Couturier and Claude Giroux each lit the lamp for the Flyers, who opened the season on Saturday with a home loss to the Penguins. Ilya Bryzgalov gave up four goals on 40 shots in the loss.
"It's frustrating and not where we want to be right now," said Giroux. "We just have to be patient and stay focused. We'll get things together here soon enough."
Skating on the power play with the score tied at 2-2 in the third, Tyler Ennis had the puck in the high slot and sent it over to the left point for Myers, who took a stride down before snapping a shot on net that found its way past Bryzgalov with 5:03 to play.
Just over a minute later, the Sabres gave themselves some breathing space as Vanek came in on a breakaway and was stopped, but the rebound sat in the crease and Hodgson jammed it in.
Vanek sealed the win in the final minute with an empty-net goal.
Buffalo struck first at the 11:07 mark of the first period on the power play. With Nik Grossman in the box for tripping, Pominville sent a pass from the deep left boards to the slot where Ott, making his debut with the team after being acquired in a trade with Dallas this past off-season, one-timed the puck from one knee for 1-0 lead.
Philly nearly got on the board with 4:16 left in the first period when a right point shot from Luke Schenn eventually found its way past Miller, but the goal was waived off as Ruslan Fedotenko was ruled to have interfered with the goaltender.
The Flyers, though, did tie the game just 2:23 into the middle period when a slap shot by Kurtis Foster in the high slot was re-directed in by Couturier at the right side of the net.
Philly then took the lead on the power play 2:34 later. With Robyn Regehr in the box for tripping, Giroux let fly with a big shot from the left circle that found its way into the net for a 2-1 lead.
Buffalo, though, tied the game with a power-play goal of its own with 4:06 left in the second. The goal came shortly after a 5-on-3 expired as Drew Stafford took the puck into the Philly end off a long pass and from the left point dished the puck over to the slot for Vanek, who was behind the defense and snuck a low forehand past the left pad of Bryzgalov with 4:06 to play.
Buffalo forward Ville Leino missed the game with a lower body injury ...
Philadelphia center Zac Rinaldo left the game in the first period with a lower
body injury and did not return ... The Flyers won all four games against the
Sabres last season ... Buffalo plays at Toronto on Monday ... The Flyers play
in New Jersey on Tuesday ... Buffalo was 3-for-6 on the power play, while
Philly went 1-for-4.

Surface and Destroy: The Submarine Gun War in the Pacific Released 8/31
Now available in paperback, Surface and Destroy: The Submarine Gun War in the Pacific by Michael Sturma examines this underappreciated aspect of submarine warfare during World War II, delving into the techniques and dangers of a surface attack. Though first hailed as the "most intricate and perfect engine of destruction which scientific military design is yet to produce," the American torpedo often failed in action, exploding too early, too late, or not at all. The unreliable performances of these torpedoes prompted the increased use of surface guns. Undoubtedly, such situations presented sailors with some of the most harrowing moments of their wartime experience, as close-up encounters with the enemies often magnified the cruelty of battle. These surface actions also extended the potential for mercy, as face-to-face combat highlighted the shared humanity present in both sides.
By shifting the focus from torpedo attacks to surface gun actions, Surface and Destroy raises new questions about submarine warfare, illuminating not only its military significance but also the mindsets of the individual submariners as they dealt with both enemies and civilians. Sturma's focus on the war in the Pacific highlights an aspect of World War II that is often ignored in general discussion. Scholars and history buffs alike will be fascinated by his descriptive narrative of these maritime conflicts.
Michael Sturma is chair of the history program at Murdoch University in Australia. He is the author of several books on maritime history, including The USS Flier: Death and Survival on a World War II Submarine, Death at a Distance: The Loss of the Legendary USS Harder, and South Sea Maidens: Western Fantasy and Sexual Politics in the South Pacific.
