I lost all my data, from my hard drive and my back-up external drive. I sent the external for data recovery to recover deleted file - to "experts". Some said there is nothing usable. Then I downloaded your file recovery software. If only I knew about it, I would have done so as the first step. I recovered files, what seems to be all of it, hassle free, in the format I had it, in perfect health. The speed of, the user-friendliness of, and logical operation is applauded as well.

Tumult, developer of the user-friendly HTML5 web site and animation builder Hype, today announced two major updates to the powerful OS X application.
Hype 3 ($49.99) is a free upgrade for Hype 2 owners, refreshing the app with a new user interface — notably with a Yosemite-matching Light color theme — while making improvements to HTML accessibility, timing functions and timeline adjustments. Using Hype, even amateur designers can create interactive HTML5 web sites that work perfectly on desktop, laptop, tablet, and smartphone screens; no coding is required.
An improved engine for responsive layouts is one of the top features in Hype Professional, which is offered as a $49.99 in-app purchase. The new layout engine lets designers specify breakpoints (such as common screen sizes and orientations) at which the page's design will change, automatically applying the designer's pre-determined adjustments to images and text layout.
A physics engine includes collisions and natural movements with adjustable gravity, bounce, friction, density, and air drag. Hype Pro also adds a Dark Yosemite theme and rearrangeable interface, a grid layout system, templates, and a Symbols system to create reusable elements.
Hype 3 and Hype Professional are both available now from the Mac App Store, as well as Tumult's web site.
For more information about Apps, HTML5, and Tumult continue reading at 9to5Mac.

If you've ever been frustrated by visiting a website on your iPhone or iPad and finding it won't work because it uses Flash, you'll welcome the latest Google initiative: it is now flagging Flash content in its search results, warning that the site may not work on your device.
Starting today, we will indicate to searchers when our algorithms detect pages that may not work on their devices. For example, Adobe Flash is not supported on iOS devices or on Android versions 4.1 and higher, and a page whose contents are mostly Flash may be noted
As Google notes, Android has now also abandoned Flash support due to the same reliability, security and performance concerns that Steve Jobs expressed in his famous open letter to Adobe back in 2010. Adobe has been forced to issue a succession of security updates to Flash, the most recent being two emergency updates earlier this year.
Google says it hopes the move, coupled to Web Fundamentals and Web Starter Kit initiatives for developers will encourage the use of HTML5 in place of Flash.
Check out 9to5Mac for more breaking coverage of iOS Devices, iPhone, and iPad.

Comments Off on Google now flags Flash content in search results on iOS/Android devices, saving clicks
Late Apple cofounder Steve Jobs famously went on a tirade against Flash back in 2010 when he said that the video technology was on borrowed time and would soon be replaced by HTML5. While Flash is very much still with us four years later, Rapt Media CEO Erika Trautman thinks that HTML5's time has finally arrived.
Comments Off on Steve Jobs may finally get his wish: 2014 could be the year HTML5 starts to kill Flash
I've covered App.io a few times in the past. The service, which allows app devs to deploy fully useable HTML5 demo versions of their native iOS apps on the web, first launched under the name "Kickfolio" back in 2012. The goal for the company was originally to let devs bring demos of their apps to promotional webpages and it eventually expanded the platform to include Facebook and other channels. Today, and around 2 million interactive app demos later, the company is announcing that it's bringing those same app demos directly to mobile devices as interactive ads.
The ads go a step beyond the interactive app-like experience that Apple promised, but never quite delivered, with iAd, and allows users to play a demo of the app before deciding to purchase/download or even visit the App Store at all. The ad starts off as a banner or like any other ad but turns into a demo version of a native iOS app that is fully playable for a set period of time before prompting the user to visit the App Store. The company tells me in its initial tests it saw "3-5x higher conversion rates than normal mobile ads."
App.io lets developers simply upload a zipped version of their app (no SDKs, plugins or changing code), and the service spits out a link to a private test page displaying an interactive HTML5 and CSS version of the app controllable by mouse and keyboard in portrait or landscape. The company says the process of bringing the demos to interactive ads on mobile devices will be just as seamless:
Our ads are 100% rich media, so they work on most ad networks out of the box. We require no SDK integrations, so creating an ad unit is as simple as uploading a build of your app. We are 100% MRAID compliant, so we can run on any MRAID ad network. We track the entire ads funnel, from impression, first tap, length of interaction, tap to the App Store, device install, and in the future, day 1/7/30 retention and cohort LTV.
Up until now developers have been using the platform mostly for providing demos of mobile apps on the web for promotional materials and internal testing. App.io is officially announcing its new interactive ads today, but those interested in being part of the initial trials will have to contact the company at firstname.lastname@example.com. Developers can also still sign up to to deploy their apps as HTML5 demos on the web here.

Comments Off on TiVo's Roamio Platform Gets Opera SDK Support, Bringing HTML5 Web Apps To TiVo DVRs
TiVo's brand new Roamio platform is about to get a whole lot "appier" thanks to the introduction of Opera's Devices SDK, and the addition of the Opera TV Store, a means through which developers can offer HTML5 web apps to TiVo device owners. The new partnership will also give developers an SDK to build TiVo-specific apps for an app store the over-the-top services provider plans to launch later this year.
TiVo's Roamio platform launched just last week, via a new family of DVR hardware devices that improve considerably on the amount of content that can be recorded, and there's a new feature coming that allows live and recorded content streaming, even out-of-home, thanks to an upcoming feature that's going to be introduced via an update (hence the "roam" pun).
While most of the update was focused around the hardware — adding more tuners and more storage to improve the core DVR experience — TiVo also improved several of the onboard apps, making them faster and more responsive. According to TiVo VP of Product Marketing Jim Denney, some of that improvement comes from switching to the Opera Browser for those apps. The Netflix and YouTube apps in particular, both of which are built on Opera, are a lot faster to open and use.
Already, Roamio devices offer up access to some pre-installed apps including Netflix, Hulu Plus, Pandora, Spotify and more, and it consolidates content from all of the above in addition to cable services when you're searching for shows. The introduction of the Opera TV store, which TiVo is aiming to deploy early next year, will bring a whole catalogue of new HTML5-based apps to the service, broadening the type of app-based content users have access to exponentially.
Opera's TV Store is already available on millions of shipping devices, and the Opera Devices SDK made its way onto over 25 million connected TVs in 2012 alone. That means that TiVo customers will be getting access to a platform that's already mature when the Opera Store goes live on its devices; there won't be any waiting while a new store is set up and curate the way there would be if TiVo had started from scratch.
TiVo also contends that the partnership will help it more quickly introduce new and improved pre-loaded software to its set-top DVRs, since Opera has become a key partner for big brands and service providers that are making the switch to HTML5 in order to gain more presence on connected home entertainment platforms.
Access to Opera TV Store content is a big value-add that should help TiVo's Roamio price tags look more attractive to users who might otherwise feel like a Roku or Apple TV device could fit their needs. And if TiVo and others suspect that Apple is preparing to make a fresh foray into the living room, as has been recently rumored by none other than our own contributor MG Siegler, building as full-featured an offering as possible definitely explains the push to build a software ecosystem.
Comments Off on TiVo's Roamio Platform Gets Opera SDK Support, Bringing HTML5 Web Apps To TiVo DVRs
TiVo is officially taking the wraps of its latest family of DVRs today dubbed "Roamio", which appear to be replacing the company's high-end Premiere offerings. In addition to inking some new deals with cable providers and redesigning its interface, TiVo is adding a ton of features with the new boxes, including a number of streaming options and support for the DIAL protocol (the same one used by Chromecast) for streaming and controlling apps like Netflix from mobile devices. It is also moving to a new HTML5 engine for a smoother native app experience and introducing an "out-of-home" streaming feature that will launch for iPhone and iPad later this year:
Coming very soon, out-of-home streaming will allow subscribers to stream TV and recorded shows to your iPad® or iPhone®. The built-in TiVo Stream feature allows users to connect to their Roamio over Wi-Fi and watch recordings and cable channels almost ANYWHERE… Streaming is restricted to a limited number of devices owned by the TiVo subscriber. Due to content provider restrictions, not all content can be streamed out of home and some content may only be streamed while a mobile device is on the same local network as the subscriber's DVR. Mobile devices sold separately.
The new out-of-home streaming feature will also be coming to TiVo's existing TiVo Stream product. Details on pricing and availability below and more on TiVo's website here.
The TiVo Roamio DVR Series includes three models: TiVo Roamio ($199.99), TiVo Roamio Plus ($399.99) and TiVo Roamio Pro ($599.99). Roamio features four or six tuners and unprecedented storage (ranging from 75 hours to 450 hours of HD content). It ensures subscribers never miss a show again and have plenty of space for recordings. The improved speed and performance of TiVo Roamio also includes integrated wireless and TiVo Stream functionality in certain models… The TiVo Roamio can be purchased today online at TiVo.com, Amazon.com or BestBuy.com and in Best Buy stores in the coming weeks.

Seniors Lead WBB To Win Over Fairfield On Senior Day
March 1, 2013
BALTIMORE - Seniors Katie Sheahin and Alyssa Sutherland led the Loyola University Maryland women's basketball team to a 56-48 win over Fairfield on Senior Night Friday at Reitz Arena.
Sutherland tied a career-high with a season-best 18-points, while Sheahin chipped in her seventh career double-double, and second of the season, with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Sophomore Kara Marshall also reached double-figures in scoring, tallying 11.
Sutherland scored eight of the Greyhounds first ten points, giving Loyola its first lead of the contest. The two teams went back and forth posting points on alternating possessions, before Marshall made back-to-back jumpers to extend the Greyhound lead to four. Sheahin made two uncontested field goals before the Stags would counter with a Katie Cizynski jumper.
Cizynski led Fairfield with 14 points, and 14 rebounds, going 7-11 from the floor.
The Greyhounds held a 12-minute lead before Cizynski gave Fairfield a 21-20 advantage, but two minutes later Sheahin put Loyola back on the board with a three-point field goal from the top of the arc. The Greyhounds entered the locker with a two-point lead, 23-21.
At the half, the two teams were neck and neck, tied in paint and bench points.
Fairfield (17-11, 11-6 MAAC) knotted the score with the first basket of the second half, but a half-court steal by Sheahin led to a Sutherland layup that gave Loyola the final push to retain the remaining lead.
The three seniors sparked an 8-0 run that ultimately led to Loyola's largest lead of the contest, 12 points, off a Sheahin jumper with just over 11 minutes remaining in regulation.
On two separate occasions the Stags made back-to-back three-point field goals to cut away at the deficit, but the Greyhounds contested with following possession points to maintain the lead.
Walker grabbed a season-high five rebounds, while Marshall and Sheahin both helped the team with four assists each.
Sutherland recorded a game-high two steals to end her career in Reitz Arena.
The Greyhounds (11-17, 6-11) will conclude the regular season on Sunday with a game at Saint Peter's. Tip off is set for 2 p.m.

how many times have we seen this, where we pepper a team all period with nothing to show for it, then lose? God I hope we are on the other side of that this time!

not the best 2nd but what's most important is the game is tied. Come out aggressive in the 3rd and good things will happen.

Oh, give it a rest already. Selanne makes one cross check and his legacy is ruined. Can people not just cheer on the Wings without all the BS?

I'll say this before I go to bed. I don't write often but trying to be more vocal on here lately, but i am on here reading it everyday. Anyways regarding the game...We didnt play our best hockey but give kudos to the ducks they defended home ice. Now it's our turn to defend home ice on Friday. I'll be coming to the game from Toronto with a few buddies, and I hope to see the Joe rockin and us giving the team all the support we can. We have a very bright future regardless of what happens this series. We had our chances today, obviously difference maker being that 5 min PP, if you want to call it a PP. On the last goal, anderson needs to tie his man up. Also, maybe just me, but i wasnt impressed with lashoff again. Too many mistakes etc. I would like to see Carlo out there game 6 in Lashoffs spot. I also Think Abby needs to be back in the lineup, and despite sammys coring we need him out and keep bert in. Bert and Nyquist have ben lookin great. Unsure if you want to break lines up but if not this year then next year nyquist needs to be a top 6 forward. Let's stay calm, keep faith, and be loud on Friday and help propell the wings to a win and force game 7. This year is a learning curve with all the young players, we need patience. I think we can pull it off Friday and game 7 anything can happen. We need to play like we did game 4 not game 5. Night boys and girls. Cheers!

The most important element of a rifle is the accuracy of its sight. Very often it is advisable to buy a less expensive rifle and invest more money in the scope. The range is enormous and is a minefield of options; there is also the terminology, which can be very confusing to anyone that does not have an extensive knowledge of such things.
A scope needs to suit:
- the job it is to do
- the rifle it is sitting on.
The buyer needs to focus on understanding:
- what quarry he needs the scope for
- the conditions in which he or she will be using the rifle
- the calibre of the rifle
- broadly the range or distance of target.
Once these questions are answered then the options narrow. Probably the most important element of the buying choice is budget. The most expensive scope can be totally wasted for certain situations and a much simpler and often cheaper alternative may be a better tool for the job.
Before looking at the specifics then it is as well to acquaint oneself with the various technical aspects of a riflescope, particularly the different elements of the scope. The terminology is often confusing so here are some basics:
Eye Piece
This is the fitting closest to the eye and holds the ocular lens. It is the point at which the eye meets the scope when you take aim
Ocular lens
This is the front lens that is closest to the eye.
Eye Relief
This is the distance between the end of the scope and your eye. With big rifles it is important that this is not too short as the recoil from the rifle can bring the scope edge into the eye and cause serious pain.
Eye Bell
This is the housing around the eyepiece that holds the lens into the tube of the scope.
Power Ring
A variable power riflescope will have a ring that allows the operator to adjust the magnification of the scope. Adjusting this will alter the amount of light getting into the scope and therefore the light refracted.
Wind Adjustment
When 'zeroing' the scope, this is the horizontal adjustor. It generally works to a quarter of an inch adjustment per click at 100 yards. Be careful to keep the cap for this as if lost it can be very hard to replace and will mean that the adjustment dial is left exposed to the elements.
Elevation Adjustment
Again, when 'zeroing', this is the vertical adjustor. The ratio of click to distance changed is the same as on the horizontal. Some manufacturers actually have the elevation dial calibrated to a specific calibre of rifle.
This is the casing for the lens and workings of the scope. The scope is really just a tube within a tube. The internal tube holds the lenses that refract the light and the outer casing binding this all together protects the vital internal workings. Tube sizes in the US tend to be smaller that Japan and Europe.
Objective Bell
This is the housing for the objective lens and attachment for the main tube.
Objective Lens
This is the lens at the front of the scope that gathers all the light. Generally the higher the magnification of the scope the bigger the objective lens needs to be. Bigger scopes with large objective lenses tend to be used for conditions where the light is at its worst.
There is some general terminology relating to scopes. Knowing what it means will help you make the right choice.
All scopes offer a degree of magnification. In other words, the image through the scope will be increased to a certain level. Some scopes have fixed magnification, which means that they cannot be adjusted to increase the size of the image through the scope. In this case a 4x scope will increase the size of the image by four times.
There are also variable power scopes where the scope can be adjusted to increase the size of the image when distance and light requires it. This does have its dangers as any movement by the handler will increase in impact as the size is increased. Variable power scopes tend to be more expensive than fixed and the variation is not something that is always required. They also tend to lose their 'zero' more easily than fixed scopes as the shooter is constantly changing the parameters in the scope. Good quality variable scopes do work very well and are particularly useful in changing conditions and situations. Variable Power scopes will have descriptions such as 3-9 x 50mm. This means that the image can be increased from 3 times the size, which is the default setting, to 9 times at its greatest setting. 50mm refers to the size of the objective lens. A variable scope allows the hunter to work ground in the morning that may be really thick and dense. Then he or she can hunt over wider, bigger spaces with a greater magnification requirement in the same day with the same scope.
In general the magnification of a scope should be chosen as follows:
4x -Small Quarry
Squirrels, rabbits and rats at short range in close surroundings
1.5- 4 x
Larger game in dense or wooded surroundings
3-9 x
Larger game in fairly open country
4-12 x or 6-18 x
Larger game in big, wide, open spaces
This refers to the centre of view or aim point through the scope. In the olden days it was called the cross hairs and was simply that. Nowadays there are many different types of reticule including the Duplex and the Dot and Post. There are even specially lit reticles, which are designed to give the hunter an even better level of accuracy particularly in low light conditions.
Reticle choice is as much about your personal preference as it is about science but be sure not to over-complicate the process.
This is a fundamental term in scope choice. Too much resolution and the range of the scope will be limited. With too little resolution the image will appear grainy and be particularly difficult to make out in bad light conditions.
Be wary of manufacturers' claims on resolution as there is no certified measure. Suffice to say that the further the range of the image and the less light that comes into the scope, the worse the resolution becomes.
Lens Coatings
All scopes are coated in various different materials to protect against scratches or improve resolution. Always buy coated lenses as this does protect and improve them.
Make sure the choice of scope is well-sealed and will not allow water into it. Water damage takes a great toll in scopes and affects the ability to see and accuracy will be impeded.
General Rules of Buying a Scope
Providing the right scope is chosen for the right rifle, quarry and conditions, the buyer will get what they pay for. Where the choice can prove expensive and unsatisfactory is when an over magnified scope with too many extras is bought and really the job that needs to be done doesn't require such huge magnification.
- Consult a local expert on what is required, what rifle is being used and what the conditions generally are. From there make a measured evaluation of the options available and the budget.
- Buy the best scope within budget
- Make sure the mounts are strong; be prepared to spend a little more to obtain a well-mounted scope.
- Get expert help, if unsure, on zeroing and getting the scope adjusted correctly. Even the most expensive scope with great magnification and resolution is a waste of time if it isn't shooting straight.
- Look out for good, reliable brands. The very best and most expensive are Swarovski, Zeiss, Leica, and Schmidt and Bender. They have a huge range of scopes for all conditions and quarry. On a more accessible price level are the Japanese brands like Nikon and others such as Bushnell and Leupold. Do not buy super-cheap it will not be a good investment in the long term.

Oh I've been hearing good things about The Fire Horse Girl too. I can't wait to see what you think of it. Rootless is a book I haven't heard much about actually, but I hope you enjoy it. Congrats on winning all those wonderful goodies! 🙂
Thanks, Sam!
Omg that is some awesome swag Kara! Signed books <3 Heard some interesting things about Rootless so I hope you enjoy it + all the other books too ^^
Great win, Kara!! Love the T-shirt. I still need to read Rootless, and The Fire Horse Girl looks interesting.
The Archived is somewhere in transit, can not wait to get my hands on it and I'm uber-jealous The Fire Horse Girl. I didn't get approval but really looking forward to hear what you think.
I hope it gets there soon, Luna!
I really need to figure out why Disney claims they're not accepting requests for books like The Archive which I want! At least I can live through your review of the book! Yay! Thanks for stopping by my blog! Have a great weekend!
Disney IS accepting blogger requests again. I have seen Disney books in book hauls the last month at least. So if there is a Disney book you want, you should try to send one in!
jelly . enjoy
What an awesome haul!! I have heard that The Archived is great, but it takes a little bit to get into. OMG Sky on Fire!! I requested it, but never heard back so I'm assuming that's a no lol!! I liked the first one, but I really want to read the second one. I think it's going to be better since they are out and about. Rootless sounds really good too. Awesome prize pack!
I can be patient if the writing is good. I've heard wonderful things about that book. I can't wait!
Thanks, Amy!
You know, I've been looking at The Fire Horse Girl for some time and then decided not to request it (mind you, if it's Scholastic they don't approve any requests outside US anyway) but I saw this book with a different cover and it just sounded so different! I'll be waiting for your review, Kara. The same goes for Rootless – really want to read this book!
Enjoy all!
They just approved me too. I guess they realized they didn't create enough buzz the first time around or something. My February slate is light so I'm starting to read it.
Good point. I think I'm going to fit it in after these next couple of books. I've already downloaded it to my kindle so I have it permanently now.
Eep The Archived! I can't wait to see what you think of that. I hope it's as good as it sounds!
The Archived was very good. Fire Horse Girl is new to me. That Rootless package is definitely awesome indeed.
Oooh good to know! Thanks, Grace!
I've heard really good things about Rootless, I need to read it soon! I also got The Archived, I can't wait to get started:) Great haul!

If you look really closely, I think you can see the halo. [video below]
Best of MLB: Hyun Soo Kim's pinch HR gives Orioles win
Best of MLB: Hyun Soo Kim's pinch HR gives Orioles win
TORONTO -- Hyun Soo Kim hit a pinch-hit, two-run homer in the ninth inning off Roberto Osuna, and the Baltimore Orioles beat Toronto 3-2 on Wednesday night to move within one game of the AL wild card-leading Blue Jays.
With Toronto ahead 2-1, Jonathan Schoop singled with one out, pinch-runner Michael Bourn stole second and Kim homered on a 3-2 pitch into the visiting bullpen in right, causing the Orioles relievers to jump in celebration.
Osuna (3-3) has five blown save chances, including two in his last three appearances.
Mark Trumbo hit his major league-leading 46th home run, a solo drive off Jason Grilli in the eighth.
Brian Duensing (1-0) got one out, and Zach Britton finished for his 47th save in as many tries (see full recap).
Mets win to keep grip on wild-card spot
MIAMI -- The Marlins walked half a block alongside a hearse carrying their ace away from Marlins Park at the start of a funeral motorcade Wednesday, and then peeled away with watery eyes to go back inside and play a game.
Drained by four days of grieving, they didn't have much left for the New York Mets.
Jay Bruce hit his 32nd home run, James Loney also homered and the Mets helped their NL wild-card chances by beating Miami 5-2.
New York began the night leading the Giants by half a game and the Cardinals by 1 1/2 games in the race for the two wild-card spots. The Mets conclude the regular season with three games at Philadelphia starting Friday.
The Marlins' loss in their home finale eliminated them from playoff contention. Despite high hopes this year, they still haven't been to the postseason since 2003.
Set Lugo (5-2) went 5 1/3 innings and allowed two runs.
Jose Urena (4-9) allowed five runs in five innings (see full recap).
Cano's HR boosts Mariners' playoff hopes
HOUSTON -- Robinson Cano hit a three-run homer in the first inning, and the Seattle Mariners beat the Houston Astros 12-4 Wednesday to keep pressure on the other AL wild-card contenders.
Kyle Seager added another three-run drive in the eighth, his 30th home run this season, as Seattle pulled within 1 games of Baltimore for the second AL wild card. Houston dropped three games back as its magic number for elimination was cut to two. The Orioles were at Toronto on Wednesday night.
Cano's career-best 36th home run, a drive off Doug Fister (12-13), landed in the first row of the Crawford Boxes in left field. Cano has nine homers and 25 RBIs in 19 games against Houston this season (see full recap).
Instant Replay: Braves 12, Phillies 2
Instant Replay: Braves 12, Phillies 2
ATLANTA – The Phillies continued to stumble toward the season's finish line on Wednesday night. They were hammered, 12-2, by the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field.
Adam Morgan was bruised for 10 hits and nine runs in five innings.
The Phils have lost five of their last six games. They have given up 63 runs over that span.
The Phils have lost six straight to the Braves and are 16-35 in their last 51 games against the NL East.
With four games to play, the Phils are 70-88.
Starting pitching report
Morgan was hit hard early but had to give the Phils some innings as the bullpen has carried a heavy load lately. He finished the season 2-11 with a 6.04 ERA in 23 games, 21 of which were starts.
Atlanta's Mike Foltynewicz picked up the win. He gave up just one run over five innings.
At the plate
The Phillies had just four hits. They have scored 599 runs this season. They are the only team in the majors not to reach 600.
The Braves had 13 hits, including six for extra bases. They were 5 for 11 with runners in scoring position.
Matt Kemp doubled and homered for the Braves.
Atlanta's Freddie Freeman extended his hitting streak to 30 games. He has reached base safely in 46 straight games, tying Washington's Jayson Werth for most this season.
Like Pete Mackanin, GM Matt Klentak sees a need for offense, but he remains committed to the team's rebuild (see story).
Health check
Roman Quinn is likely done for the season. Aaron Nola is throwing in Florida (see story).
Up next
The series concludes on Thursday night. Jeremy Hellickson (12-10, 3.78) will make his final start of the season (and likely his final with the Phillies) against Atlanta right-hander Josh Collmenter (3-0, 4.19).
It will be the Phillies' final appearance in Turner Field. The Braves move into a new park next season.

In a break from our usual Q&A format, Chef Anthony Bourdain talks about Gabrielle Hamilton and reviews her memoir Blood, Bones & Butter.
The Best There Is by Anthony Bourdain
Very quickly after meeting Gabrielle Hamilton, I understood why she was a terrific and
much admired chef. I knew that her restaurant, Prune, was groundbreaking, that she
seemed to have come out of nowhere, instead of being a product of the "system" (she'd
emerged from the invisible subculture of catering), to open one of the most quirky, totally
uncompromising, and quickly embraced restaurants in New York City. Her purportedly
(but not really) Franco-phobic menus were intensely, notoriously personal, her early
embrace of the nose to tail attitude was way, way ahead the times, and chefs - all chefs - seemed to like and respect her. Almost as quickly, it became apparent that this chef could write.
Short pieces appeared here and there over the years and they were sharp, funny, incisive, unsparing of both author and subjects - straight to the point and pretense-free, like Hamilton herself. She could write really well. And she had, from all accounts, a story to tell. So when it was announced that Blood, ...

Botox Injections | Treatment | Before & After Photos | Cost & Prices
Botox Prices
Botox prices vary widely in Los Angeles. In some cases, the price is based on a Botox "unit" and sometimes it's based on the area (between the eyes, crow's feet, etc.).
To make sure you are comparing apples to apples, it's best to find out what the practice sells a unit of Botox for. In Los Angeles, the price of one unit of Botox can range from $8.00 to $20.00, with the average between $11.00 – $13.00. Price per area typically varies between $200 – $300.
So, why is there such a wide range of prices for Botox? When you pay for Botox injections, you are paying for the cost of the product, but more importantly, you are paying for the expertise and skill of the injector. While most consumers believe that Botox injected at one practice is the same as Botox injected at another, what varies is HOW the product is injected. How Botox is injected will determine the result you have and how satisfied you are with that result. Generally speaking, more advanced and experienced injectors can charge more for their treatments.
Avoiding side effects like lid droopiness and at the same time creating the proper effect is where the skill of your Botox practitioner will come in. Whether affordable or expensive, ask yourself if you are getting the right results with your Botox.

Deanne Matney wears many hats.
She honed her childhood gifts into careers, from artist to psychotherapist.
She now works primarily as an artist.
The Amarillo resident, who publishes poetry under the name Deanne Conner Romero and paints under the name Deanne Conner, said she started painting at the age of 10 when her teacher stuck her in the back of the room with a set of oil paints and a canvas.
"The reason why was so I would leave the other kids alone," Matney said.
Besides her artistic talents, Matney also has a knack for helping people with their problems, she said.
She is a psychotherapist focused in the area of drug and alcohol addiction.
"Ever since I was a little kid everyone came to me with their problems. If I'm in the grocery store, the person in line behind me will tell me the most intimate details of their life, and I don't even know them," Matney said.

Who: Works of Deanne Matney
When: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday; 10 a.m. to 1 a.m., Tuesday through Saturday; through July
Where: Book and Bean, 3808 W. Sixth Ave.
Although she tried to give up her private practice several years ago, her clients didn't let her, she said.
"I am supposedly retired, but people keep coming to me, so I still see clients here at home," Matney said.
Matney also has a passion for politics and is actively involved in many political organizations.
"I really wish people would become more informed about candidates so they could make informed decisions at the polls," Matney said.
In all her hobbies and occupations, painting is a continual passion.
"I've evolved from the very realistic into impressionism then into expressionism and now into abstractism," Matney said.
Her more recent art is abstract, reflecting what she feels rather than what she sees, she said.
"A lot of people ask why I do abstract art when I can do realism.
"I say it is because most of my life I painted what was on the outside.
"Now I choose to paint what is on the inside, my emotions, which is much more difficult because I don't have anything to look at," Matney said.

Effingham was created on February 5, 1777 from the colonial parishes of St. Matthew and St. Phillip. The county was named after Lord Effingtham, an English champion of colonial rights. Its first settlers were from Austria who had suffered religious persecution under the Catholic Church and was given two weeks to remove themselves from the country. They spent two or three years trying to obtain passage from England to America and succeeded when General Oglethorpe heard of their plight and had them brought to the colony of Georgia. Many of the original records at the Effingham County Court House remain intact. When tracing families in this county please refer to the Colonial Records of Georgia by Candler as well as the Saltzburgher books found in most regional libraties.

The first settlement after Savannah was Ebenezer, a village founded by Saltzburgers who came to America to escape persecution by the Catholic Church. Mr. Van Zant from Switzerland was the founder of the first site of the village which proved to be unsuitable; the site later removed further north. Effingham County was created in 1777 from the parishes of St. Matthew and St. Philip which were established in 1758. Effingham County was named after Lord Effingham who resigned his position of Colonel. in the British Army to serve in America. Earliest Settlers: David Ambrose, Henry Cook, Samuel Dasher, William Downs, Emanuel Dugger, John W. Exley, Micajah Futrell,John K. Heidt, Joshua Glover, Jesse Hurst, John Ihly, Christopher Bailey, Thomas Blitch, and others.
Origins of Some of the Early Settlers to Effingham County
By Jeannette Holland Austin
Thomas Wylly was born in Tortola in 1762, an island located in the British Virgin Islands. This is the small island which was noticed by Christopher Columbus when he was in the Virgin Islands in behalf of Spain. The Spanish made several attempts to settle the islands, but pirates such as Blackbeard and Captain Kidd were actually the first permanent residents. During the 16th century when the Dutch lost control of the area, the British established a permanent plantation colony on Tortola and the surrounding islands. Settlers then developed large plantations for the sugar cane industry.
Tortola Island in the Virgin Islands
His parents died and he was transported to the Georgia colony while still a young boy by his uncle. This explains his rank promotions during the Revolutionary War. He joined the 4th Georgia Battalion and was appointed Second Lieutenant. Later was made Deputy Quarter Master under his uncle Richard Wylly who raised him. He fought in the Battles of Medway as Church and Briar Creek and was on the outskirts when the British seiged Savannah. He saw General Screven of the Georgia Militia killed and Captain Strouder as well. He acted as a spy for General Moultrie. Ironically, after the Revolutionary War, Tortola was a destination for Loyalists who escaped from being hanged. Passenger Lists of other emigrants to Ebenezer are available to members of Georgia Pioneers

The SPT 2400 series was designed in collaboration with top professional trainers around the world with a focus on rugged reliability, ease of use, and training features such as the Jump and Rise training aids: The Jump Stimulation* is a great feature for training methods that involve ?jumping? frequently between two different stimulation levels. As before, you can set a level of intensity to the Nick or Continuous Stimulation buttons that is appropriate for training your dog. The Jump Stimulation button allows you to set a second, self-programmed stimulation level higher or lower than your normal intensity level setting. Applying a correction at the right intensity level quickly and timely is paramount in dog training with e-collars. With the Jump Stimulation feature, you won?t have to have to fumble around with the stimulation setting at the time that the correction is needed, so the chances of applying a stimulation too late or at the wrong intensity level are virtually eliminated. The Jump Stimulation is also useful in emergency or dangerous situations when your dog is excited and not responding to the normal stimulation level. If you do not have time to increase the intensity level in these situations, the Jump Stimulation is a fast and convenient way to get your dog's attention before the situation gets out of hand. Another great feature is Rise Stimulation*. The Rise Stimulation button continuously increases the stimulation level until the button is released. This allows you to hold the Rise button until you notice a response from the dog, essentially allowing the dog to choose the appropriate level of stimulation. Prior to the Rise Stimulation, dog trainers had to guess at the correct stimulation level for individual dogs. With Rise Stimulation, the dog responds to a level that matches his temperament. All SPT 2400 series have completely waterproof and rechargeable (Ni-MH batteries) transmitter and collar units, an easy-to-read LCD screen with a low battery indicator, and a 2400 yard (1.3 mile) range. Also included on all SPT 2400 series are the Jump, Rise, Nick, and Continuous Stimulations, as well as Vibration. The SPT 2430 and 2432 (2-dog system) add a beeper/trainer to the already feature-loaded SPT 2400 series: Features: 2400 Yard (1.3 Mile) Range. 50 Levels of Intensity adjusted from the Transmitter. LCD Screen on Transmitter. Digital Technology to Maximize Power. Maxx-Range Internal Collar Antenna System. Gentle Touch System Extra Mild Stimulation. Built-In Safety Shut-Off. Rechargeable Ni-MH Battery System. Completely Waterproof Transmitters and Collars. Positive Vibration, Jump, and Rise Stimulations on all models. Beeper/Locator available. 2 dog system.

Jeremy Johnson's Mello Yello
I like this bike. In nature and as is often the case with motorcycles there's a beauty in clean simplicity. Don't get me wrong, I love the over-the-top stuff as much as anyone: choppers with so much rake in the forks they're almost horizontal, elaborate and highly detailed paint schemes depicting everything from the end of the world to your grandmother's kidney operation, exhaust pipes that spit flames and killer bees and killer flaming bees when you hit the throttle. All that stuff is fun, but what we're really after is something self-expressive, something that reflects who we are by what we ride. . .Page 8

From February the 22nd to the 24th 2008, about one hundred women farmers from 16 countries from all over the world took part to the seminar organized by ÖBV-Via Campesina Austria on Food and Power (« Macht Essen », litteraly « Power Eat »).
In Austria, where farms are relatively small, women are very often responsible of the farm while the men work outside. It is the case in Johanna's farm that we visited on Friday. Johanna has about thirty dairy cows, as well as some pigs and hens, mainly for her own family consumption. She also has a small garden for vegetables. Her farm is organic, like 38% of all farms in the region, which makes it a very special place in Europe.

For ex-army captain and founder of Green Man Gaming, Paul Sulyok, planning the future flotation of his video game trading platform has been a military operation two years in the making.
According to the serial entrepreneur, taking his third business public was always the next level, despite a global sell-off of technology shares last week that was triggered by fears of a dotcom bubble.
"It has never been in question that we wouldn't go through an initial public offering (IPO) – it's a milestone that opens up more opportunities and allows for aggressive growth," says Sulyok, who sees the recent fall in e-commerce stock values as a mere blip in the growing global dominance of digital businesses.
"Feedback from our friends and relations in the market confirms there's a readjustment happening but the fundamentals are still there," he says. "For me an IPO is just the transition stage before really starting to aggressively grow the company."
Green Man Gaming (GMG), now the UK's biggest multi-platform retailer, disrupted the traditional distribution model of video games when it first appeared on the market in 2010.
Rather than buying a physical game to load on a console, it enabled serious players to buy online, download, enjoy for an unlimited amount of time and then trade back in on the platform.
The gamer acquires virtual credits when he does this, the publisher makes royalties on the resell, and GMG profits on a product it has already sold.
Last year the GMG website sold 7,500 games per member of staff, which rocketed to 41,000 per employee in the first quarter of 2014, as users bought Wildstar, Lego the Hobbit and Goat Simulator – in which players can control a 3D goat, whether it's headbutting people or eating washing.
With an IPO on the medium- term horizon, Sulyok intends to continue this efficiency drive. In fact, among its accolades the e-tailer has been named one of the top 50 hottest companies that the Government intends to support to IPO.
He is already making inroads, spending more time in an old territory – the City. After serving in Northern Ireland and Bosnia, Sulyok worked for Citibank, before becoming a management consultant on trading systems, and then founding two other start-ups that merged video games with betting.
As chief executive of GMG he is now building the company's profile with investors and attending IPO workshops. The company already has funding from venture capital firm Eden Ventures.
As a technology start-up the most "arduous process" in the early days was protecting GMG's unique IP. Achieving four patents via the US system took four years.
In 2012 Sulyok acquired Playfire, a social network for core gamers, and merged it with GMG. This allowed more traction with the customer but also helped him collate a data bank informing price points and showing analysts how gamers were progressing.
"Through this data we can get very, very targeted," he says. "We know how long it takes how many gamers to finish a level, we know when someone is ready for a new game, or if we need to build a new map. We can sell an extra level, virtual food bag or more weapons. It's not about a great big cannon spraying people with offers and tools, more a sniper rifle."
Social media presence drove traffic up tenfold in just two years, demonstrating the importance of constant dialogue with the customer, whose alternative to digital downloads is to order a game off Amazon or trade an old one in at a physical store.
Playfire, which allows gamers to track their performance against friends on platforms such as the Xbox Live or Steam, enabled Suylok to build a referral system, helping players offset the cost of the next product, unleashing the power of the consumer to recommend the site.
When it launched four years ago in May, the Bloomsbury-based company had 12 publishers signed up and sold just 100 games in one month. Four years later it works with 300 publishers and sells hundreds of thousands of games a month in 185 countries.
And as the global gaming industry expands, so does Green Man Gaming, which generated £17m revenues in 2013 – 90pc of which came from overseas markets.
The sector, deemed to be the number one entertainment industry, will be worth $87bn (£52bn) by 2017, according to accountancy firm PwC. "To give it some context Hollywood is worth around £12.5bn," adds Sulyok (pictured below.)
It isn't just the popularity of gaming that is enveloping the world, futuristic technology is bringing what was once perceived as an anti-social hobby for teenage boys to a wider audience, meeting both entertainment and education needs.
3D reality glasses are changing game-playing, allowing enthusiasts to immerse themselves in a Middle Earth battlefield or Grand Theft Auto car chase.
The start-up, which began life in a pokey office at Euston in London, has professionalised to keep pace with Sulyok's expansion ambitions, with his management board comprising talent from HMV and Tweetdeck.
Further acquisition is always on the table. "Acquisitions should only be made if they directly help the growth of a company and are of benefit to shareholders," he says. "We always do a significant amount of due dilligence and work out if this [a target company or piece of technology] is a missing part of the jigsaw for us."
For Sulyok, running an e-commerce business affords him time to plan his long term expansion.
"There is a desire for companies that can deliver on a global stage," he said. "E-commerce is different from normal bricks and mortar companies where 97pc of my energy would go into running shops, managing overheads, encouraging footfall.
