- because Whym closed we tried EateryEllenBDined on 9/16/2014Eatery doesn't have the ambience, service or quality of food we enjoyed at Whym. We were disappointed. We will, however, give it a second chance when we go to the theater in the area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bring back the turkey burgertravellingcariVIPDined on 9/13/2014No more turkey burger at dinner is just sad. Otherwise, food delicious and service great. Loved that we were in the back corner booth as it was less loudSpecial Features:
- Energetic place w/good cocktailsOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 9/12/2014My girlfriend and I try to meet up for dinner once a month and always look for somewhere trendy to go to or just to try a new place. We went afterwork and it was not busy at first. The crowd started to come after 7pm. The food was okay. The scene was nice and a good place to hang out with groups. The service was excellent! I would go back and try something different to eat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- YumtravellingcariVIPDined on 9/12/2014The turkey burger was delicious, as always and the waiter happily subbed avocado for cheese. Love the fresh fruit platter, except the water melon wasn't fresh.Special Features:
- Post Show BitesOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 9/7/2014Great experience! We arrived early but were seated and informed that kitchen wasn't open for another 10 min (it was 4:50) and quickly provided menus and placed a drink order while we perused the menu. The food was delicious, great spin and takes on classic food. I had the house burger and it was well cooked and well made with so many great flavors. Spicy fries were awesome. Drinks were made well, definitely try the blackberry gin rickey. My wife and I will definitely visit again in the future.Special Features:
- Perfect1mitDined on 9/7/2014We had a reasonably large party with 5 adults and 4 children. Eatery was very accommodating and not at the least put out by the kids. The service was great! Our waiter was friendly and outgoing, a really nice guy. The food was fabulous, everyone was very happy. We will eat here again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wowahoughjr3Dined on 9/3/2014Amazing house burger and even better ice cream sandwich for dessert. Add great service to that, and my girlfriend and I don't have a bad word to say. We'll be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DiappointedConcertlover2Dined on 8/30/2014We made a reservation, and although walk in we're being seated. We were seated at a table crowded near the next table although there was available seating near the window, which looked much more comfortable . Had coffee with lipstick on the cup, waited too long for it to be replaced, and because we sat so close to the next table it was deposited on their table. We will never return
- Improve hostingArtlyDined on 8/20/2014In a nice corner of Hell's Kitchen with dimmed lights and candles a rather cold reception and glacial Cerberus dog hosting those whom have dared (?) to make a reservation... I asked to be seated on the terrace and a " first arrived first served" was the sharp answer. Then after being seated in a corner table, we had to face to an impossible choice of wines... and a server shaking the bottle of a fine red Malbec before serving ! Food was fair, defenitely overloaded with lipids, impossible to finish the "house burger" so dry and with a huge bread covering the whole with no vegetables or fresh salad... luckily the few muscular customers were nice to stare at. No Eatery for me for long time specially for my birthday !Special Features:
- Review belowredhedgirlVIPDined on 8/18/2014Service was extremely slow; one waiter took our drink order and then never returned; had to hail down another waiter to help. His name was Ron and he was GREAT!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GREAT dinner!essjaebeeVIPDined on 8/17/2014Food was delicious, I had short rib mac&cheese, yum! Staff was wonderful, whole experience ****Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Could be more kid-friendlysharonVIPDined on 8/17/2014I went for brunch with a group of 5, including my 6 year old cousin. They had a regular kids' menu, but nothing on it was brunch or breakfast food, so we struggled to find something the picky eater would want. Additionally, they completely forgot to brink one of our drinks, and it was hard to get someone's attention to remind them, despite the restaurant not being that full. The food was excellent as usual though!Special Features:
- RosieluluDined on 8/10/2014Everything is yummy here! Always busy, but waitstaff great. Great place for brunch!Special Features:
- Love this restaurant!MarilynIzDined on 8/5/2014Every time I come to New York I have to have at least one meal here! Love the food and the bar is great too!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- solid eats at the eateryhungrymanVIPDined on 8/4/2014We had family in from out of town staying at the Hilton. This was a short walk toward restaurant alley and worth the short walk. The waiter was very friendly and helpful with selections. The apps were mixed in my opinion but all tasty. The entrees were all as expected and I would say good eats for the value. The décor is very simple unless you are eating outside (only for smaller groups 2 or 4). The bar looked very small but the drinks we order for the table were excellent. Overall a very solid experience.Special Features:
- Good Brunch spotNopeDined on 8/3/2014We met a friend for brunch and had a really great meal. A panini, a turkey burger, and lemon ricotta pancakes all turned out well. My Maker's Mark Arnold Palmer was delicious as well. Only gripe was that service could have been a bit more attentive, but nothing too awful. Would go back in the future!Special Features:
- Table in the backUWSfoodieDined on 8/2/2014I have been to the Eatery many times, however, I did find it to be very loud. This time, we were offered a table in the rear, which I did not know existed! It was perfect. We had a hamburger, which was wonderful, and salads, which were very good.Special Features:
- Added to my short listBakerTravelsDined on 8/2/2014Joined 2 friends for brunch this weekend upon a recommendation. Service was awesome. I had to wait for two and the bartender came around to offer me water while I waited. Classy touch. Our waiter could answer all questions on the menu and joked about being on the hook if I was disappointed. Food came, we all loved our meal. Try the Ricotta Pancakes, they rock!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Yum!pickykid680Dined on 7/26/2014We had diverse food needs in our group and everyone was accommodated with the yummy and reasonably priced food offered at Eatery. Special requests were handled with no problem. The free rice chips are AMAZING and should be packaged and sold!Special Features:
- Always goodDineyDined on 7/23/2014Love Eatery...the menu is fun...the staff is always professional and fun....one of my favorite go-to lunch places...great break from the work day!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- RNOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/20/2014Food took forever. It was cold when we got it. The waiter was nice but overall not a great experience. I don't foresee ever going back or recommending :/
- Great BrunchNickyTheRoadDined on 7/20/2014I had an omelette with smoked mozzarella and sausage (with sun-dried tomatoes and garlic). Great flavor combination. Wife had lemon ricotta pancakes - also wonderful. We started with the Beignets - Served with Blackberry Compote and Powdered Sugar. Service was great - our waiter Abe was really informative, friendly and just the right amount of attention to our needs.Special Features:
- Best Mac & cheeseMyleneDined on 7/19/2014You HAVE TO get their Mac & Jack (add some bacon), it's the best. I also had the summer salad, which was delicious and fresh. The waiters are so nice, so pleasant.Special Features:
- nice menu, energetic vibecynashVIPDined on 7/19/2014have been here many times and enjoyed. they have a nice broad menu and it's especially good for lunch and brunch. Not the best food ever, but reliable and tasty. this place is super-noisy though so don't go to Eatery for an intimate conversation!Special Features:
- Always Happy at Eaterypicky2Dined on 7/18/2014The Eatery has consistently good food and upbeat and efficient service. Their fish dishes are fresh and beautifully prepared, the Mac and Cheese is great comfort food, and their salads are crisp and flavorful. They will also work to get your meal to you in time for a nearby Broadway show. We've always had a great experience there with wonderful service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always consistentSurprisemeVIPDined on 7/17/2014Thank you for another wonderful dining experience. I've been to the Eatery many times in the past and the food quality and service are always awesome and consistent. Whatever your secret formula is it works like a charm. I tell everyone I know to pay a visit to the Eatery. I booked a reservation for three picky people and they ALL loved my selection. Thanks for making me look good. I'm looking forward to my next visit.Special Features:
- Loved the mac n cheeseOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/11/2014We tried several dishes and fell in love with the mac n cheese. Wine and beer menu was accessible. Kid friendly atmosphere. Quick service.Special Features:
- Love this place!sharonVIPDined on 7/6/2014I love that Eatery has so many options, and want to keep coming back to try something else! The drinks, food, and service at brunch were great, and now we live in the neighborhood, so we'll definitely be back for dinner.Special Features:
- Pre-theatre dinneryummyDined on 7/5/2014Great spot for dinner before theatre! We liked the food , drinks and service!I would recommend this to a friend.
- So disappointedLuvurlife75Dined on 7/4/2014I was greatly anticipating to eat at the Eatery, so much to the fact I had it as one of my restaurants to dine at while visiting NYC. After ordering food for a party of 8 people, my family & I waited over an hour & 10 mins for our food, with the restaurant less than half full of other customers. We spoke with the manager & inquired what was taking so long & he said he didn't realized we had ordered food, apologized, & walked to the kitchen to check on our order. To make matters worse, the manager did in fact know we didn't order because he stood less than 5 ft from our table at the hostess stand. My family finally received their food but my French Toast was missing from the order & finally arrived an hour & 30 mins after I ordered it!Special Features:
- Okay...foodsnobDined on 6/28/2014I chose this spot for a girls' brunch, because it was mid-way for everyone, but it was difficult for us to continue our brunch for too long. The music was so loud that everyone had to speak over each other, and because everyone was speaking over each other, you really had to concentrate on your conversations and repeat ourselves multiple times. We had to leave as soon as we were finished with our brunch because we were just getting a headache. The food was good, but it's nothing special in NYC.Special Features:
- I miss the chicken chilitravellingcariVIPDined on 6/27/2014and the usually decent turkey burger was dried out. Not sure what was up -- the restaurant is usually a winner but it was a let down this time. They were also out of edamame and hummus.Special Features:
- Watermelon Cocktail MadnessInWalkedWayneDined on 6/25/2014Admittedly, I go to and refer others to go to EATERY mostly in the summertime for their Watermelon Martinis and Watermelon Margaritas. They're very refreshing and the place has a good vibe. The servers are always on point, too, and very well-trained.Special Features:
- EateryFoodieDined on 6/22/2014Food and service was very good. Tables are very close together so we had to talk over diners sitting on both sides of us. Luckily the weather was nice because we had to wait outside for our table...there was no place to wait inside without crowding diners already seated.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- How can you screw up an omelette?mangezbienVIPDined on 6/22/2014Food was mediocre - I ordered an omelette with spinach and cheese that was completely tasteless. My friend had poached eggs that were inedible. Not sure how it's possible to make simple egg dishes that are flavorless or inedible, but they were. Lot's of great choices in the neighborhood, so just pass this place by.
- Just Good Pre-Theater Matinee FoodFrequentBruncherVIPDined on 6/21/2014Coming into the city for pre and post-theater dining can get expensive. Rushing through lunches are costlier per minute than dinner. That was till I found the Eatery this past weekend. Our reservation was honored on time, the service was well-paced, the food very good, and the prices reasonable. I almost aLways ask the name of the server, but this time I forgot. I would have wanted to give him a shout-out because he was one of the nicest and best waiters ever. I look forward to going there again.Special Features:
- Poor Food Poor Servicejem2234Dined on 6/20/2014Poor service. Food did not come out right. The chicken was dry and the fish tacos were average at best. I'd give the food one star but one person enjoyed the burger. In general the food was of lackluster quality. All in all I would never return and inform anyone who listens to avoid this place at all costs. Way to many good restaurants in that neighborhood to waste time here. Will be putting up a Yelp review about this as well.
- Pleasant, Nothing Specialjordon50VIPDined on 6/18/2014I live in the neighborhood and have gone a half dozen times, each time hoping that the food and drink might go up a notch. They never do. If you're more interested in a fun, noisy environment than food, this place will do. Brunch drinks need work--when will bartenders learn how to make a real Bloody Mary? P.S. If I have to recommend anything, go for the salads.
- Great findPABLODined on 6/17/2014Loved this neighborhood find. Great food .Great service. The food came very promptly. Many of the dishes could be shared. Would go back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food great service questionableNYVisitorVIPDined on 6/16/2014I have been here many times given closeness to where I live and reliable fare. This last time the service was chaotic, slow and disappointing. It was unclear who was our server and we kept having long delays before getting the next course or the check. This needs to be looked at because this is the kind of restaurant in which you expect pretty seamless service and, if you don't get that, it may just not be worth going back to

TWC and PlaceIQ Partner on Hyperlocal Ad Sales Partnership Which Can Target Down To A City Block
High-Profile Launch Sponsors include Chevy Silverado, Frito-Lay and Ram Trucks
The Weather Channel Companies (TWCC) announced today it will be the first publisher to partner with hyperlocal data company PlaceIQ to provide advertisers with groundbreaking new hyperlocal audience targeting that can deliver highly contextually relevant ads to consumers at the right place and time. With 30 million monthly* mobile users, The Weather Channel is one of the few publishers with a large enough mobile audience to offer true hyperlocal audience targeting at scale. This targeting is now available on The Weather Channel iPhone App and will be rolling out on The Weather Channel Android App in July and all mobile platforms later this year.
The product is launching with a number of high profile advertisers, including Chevy Silverado,Frito-Lay, and the Ram Truck brand, among others.
"Consumers expect to receive the most accurate local weather news and information when they use The Weather Channel mobile products, which gives us the opportunity - and our advertisers the advantage - to deliver messages highly targeted to their location that will feel completely organic to their user experience," said Patrick McCormack, vice president, mobile sales and strategy, The Weather Channel Companies. "We feel strongly that our premium content and ability to target a specific mobile audience provides an unparalleled ad solution to our advertising clients."
PlaceIQ extracts intelligence from large amounts of place, social and mobile location-based data to create hyperlocal, targetable audience profiles informed by time of day as well as location, giving advertisers the power to connect with consumers at the right place, at the right time, with the right message. These anonymous audience profiles can provide powerful targeting opportunities for advertisers. For example, financial services clients can target ads to mobile phones in areas with a high propensity for business travelers such as airports during peak commuting hours, or in areas with a high concentration of hotels in the morning or evening that score high for business travelers. A QSR can serve an ad on The Weather Channel app during lunch on mobile phones on certain blocks populated with office workers, or serve an ad targeting late-night diners in an area that has a high concentration of nightlife and social activity. To view a video explaining the product, click here: http://wxch.nl/JklbBq.
This new targeting offers several advantages for advertisers. First, a recent Internet2Go study confirmed that, despite claims of ZIP code or latitudinal-longitudinal targeting capabilities, most mobile ad networks can't deliver local impressions more focused than the Designated Market Area (DMA) or city level.** In fact, only about 5% to 10% of mobile display impressions carry a lat-long today.*** By contrast, The Weather Channel Mobile provides advertisers with a 100% hyperlocal inventory.
Another key advantage of PlaceIQ's hyperlocal solution is that it's inherently privacy friendly, as it profiles locations - not users - through analysis of anonymous location data. There is no identification of individual users, or any usage of personally identifiable information. Data is accumulated through place, event and social information, as well as digital behavior associated with each location.
"The combination of PlaceIQ's hyperlocal audience targeting, with The Weather Channel's tremendous reach and ability to transform hyperlocal impressions into specific audiences, is an extremely powerful one. The combination of weather, location and audience creates a set of offerings we think represent true innovation in mobile advertising, and we're extremely excited to partner with The Weather Channel to deliver this to market," said Duncan McCall, CEO and co-founder, PlaceIQ.

Cody medication manufacturer seeks to expand
There's a good opportunity to add scores of jobs to a Cody pharmaceutical manufacturer, but it will take a great amount of support and assistance from the state of Wyoming to make it happen, a local economic development leader says.
Local distributor of designer drugs sent to prison
Based on the variety of things people have said about you, I don't know whether to give you an award or put you in prison," said District Court Judge Robert Skar, mulling over the appropriate sentence for the 27-year-old Cody man before him.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
The only reason I use Outfitter is to be able to switch between gear faster by pressing the slot where I want to change something.
If I for instance press the waist slot all my belts will show up and I just have to press the belt I want to equip instead of searching for it in my bags.
Is there any other addon that also does that?
ItemRack also does that for your char panel, too, I believe. And Zach, switch ItemRack to a minimap icon and save your screen real estate. UR doing it rong. You can even decrease the size of each of the frames to be really small. I've used ItemRack for years, it just takes practice to understand it fully.

My treadmill powers off when it shows an error code
Treadmill Powers Off Without Error Code
Includes Keys, Ironman, Alliance, Milestone, Encore, HealthTrainer, some Smooth models, some CardioZone models, Galyans, and several other brands.
Typically a Keys treadmill will give you an error code if it unexpectedly shuts off. If not, follow the steps below.
a. If the breaker has tripped, let the treadmill sit for 15 minutes then power back up. If it trips again but in a shorter amount of time, you have a belt/deck friction problem.
Check for an overheating console. The console does not run on high voltage so if it is overheating you need to replace the PCB.

Ignoring natural capital could see countries' credit ratings downgraded
See on Scoop.it - Digital Sustainability
See on businessgreen.com
"A report by the UN Environment Programme's Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) says loss of soils, forests, and fisheries, as well as rising resource costs, are likely to become increasingly important to a nation's economic health – and may therefore affect its ability to repay or refinance sovereign debt."
This excellent report makes the link between the world's financial debt crisis and the global ecological debt crisis. The debate on austerity gets a completely different dimension if you look at this double challenge.

When these particles strike the earth's atmosphere, they produce extensive air showers made of billions of secondary particles. While much progress has been made in nearly a century of research in understanding cosmic rays with low to moderate energies, those with extremely high energies remain mysterious.The Pierre Auger Observatory is working on solving these mysteries.

I was worried this was just going to be general tips that are relevant for every class like some of these articles seem to be, but I think you did a very nice job of incorporating specific tips for the two shaman dps specs :)
Thank you for the article...and excuse me while I go take Unleashed Weapons off my casting bar for my ele shaman...
And here I thought that both DPS specs used Unleash Elements whenever they refresh flame shock, but maybe that is just enhancement; I haven't played a lot of ele since ICC.
Speaking of, is there an addon that does a good job of alerting you about Lava Surge procs? When I have played ele, I find it very easy to miss Lava Surge in the amount of combat text that scrolls by in a raid, and I'm looking forward to possibly going back to ele in Mists if the new talent system increases survivability, as I suspect it will. Right now I just can't live without Shamanistic Rage.
Jeff (Not that one ^ ) said...
MiK Scrolling Battle Text used to pop up a raid-warning style alert when Lava Surge procced. I haven't used it in a while though.
You could use Power Auras or Tell Me When to flash a graphic when either Lava Surge procs, or when Lava Burst is off of cooldown and you are in combat.
Electrique said...
The best lava surge addon I have found is Totem Timers, it just works so well, no complex configuration needed, has all cooldowns clesrly visable and the indicator for lava surge is impossible to miss, I think all elemental shaman should use it.

The words of Solomon put the new men in better spirit and there was little complaining after that. They called that speech "The Binkussing of the Recruits." Solomon was the soul of the old guard.
Margaret and her mother returned to England with David Hartley soon after Colonel Irons had left France. The British Commissioner had not been able to move the philosopher. Later, from London, he had sent a letter to Franklin seeking to induce America to desert her new ally. Franklin had answered:
"I would think the destruction of our whole country and the extirpation of our people preferable to the infamy of abandoning our allies. We may lose all but we shall act in good faith."
Here again was a new note in the history of diplomatic intercourse.
Colonel Irons' letter to Margaret Hare, with the greater part of which the reader is familiar, was forwarded by Franklin to his friend Jonathan Shipley, Bishop of St. Asaph, and by him delivered. Another letter, no less vital to the full completion of the task of these pages was found in the faded packet. It is from General Sir Benjamin Hare to his wife in London and is dated at New York, January 10, 1780. This is a part of the letter:

Entryway has the kitchen to the right and a coat closet and laundry room just to your left to keep you organized. The kitchen is fully equipped with an open-air layout to make cooking fun. The dining room table seats 6 or 8 people under a glass chandelier. There is also bar seating for 4 at the kitchen island to squeeze in a few extra guests, a wet bar to keep adults entertained, and ceiling fans to provide a gentle breeze. The main living room has floor-to-ceiling windows, a lovely fireplace, and lets in perfectly-pink light during sunsets. Go ahead, step on out to the front porch and smell that salty sea air.
Upstairs, there is a Nantucket-style bedroom with hand-painted clouds on the ceiling, a queen bed, well-loved furniture collected from near and far, and a private bath. Across the living room is the "Flamingo" bedroom, which features an adorable (private) pink bathroom, fun artwork, and a queen bed on white, fluffy carpet.
The Master Bedroom is a veritable sanctuary with a four-poster king bed, elegant furnishings, a walk-in closet, a jetted bathtub, separate shower, and a private sitting room with a knock-out view. A windowed door goes out to the common balcony from this room.
Downstairs, you will find a huge couch, a big TV, a "fridge nook" with microwave and sink. In the back, there is one bedroom with a queen bed and its own bath; the other bedroom also has its own bath and features two closets. One queen with a twin bunk up top lets you pack in the kids…or three adventuresome adults. A tiled floor down here means easy clean up.
Please note that all bedrooms have TV and their own private bathroom.
Now that you've seen the sleeping accommodations, forget about them. You are guaranteed to spend 100% of your waking hours outside. You won't be able to resist the large pool with a deep end, entry steps, and surrounding fenced deck. Lots of chairs/chaises are available for sunbathers.
After your swim, go on down the long pier that arches over the marsh. Drop in the kayak at the "swim deck" and go for a paddle. Then beat the heat at the end of the pier under the covered boathouse. Take a nap in the hammock as the sea breeze rocks you to sleep. Plop down in the custom-made benches to watch glorious sail boats and power yachts cruise before catching the breath-taking sunset.
Catching fish? The lights under the decking sure bring them up and the boathouse sink makes fish-cleaning easy. Talk about fresh fish. Local porpoises also know where the good fishing is and will probably be spotted by a member of your crew.
Come back up the pier, flick on the pool lights, and turn on some tunes. Throw together some sides to complement your fresh catch--your outdoor barbeque party is about to start.
To work off your food and beverage indulgences, biking/walking trails pervade the island. The island's public tennis courts and children's playground are within easy walking distance, as is the island's boat ramp. For serious fitness buffs, there is an exercise club on the island that has an indoor and an outdoor swimming pool, private tennis and basketball courts, and a formal gym with cardio machines, weight machines, and free weights. See the schedule for offered exercise classes, such as yoga. Access to Ono North Recreational Center can usually be arranged for $50/week. For more information on Ono Island, check out the link below.
For maximum convenience, contact us for airport-to-island transportation and stocking your fridge. With advance notice, we can connect you with an experienced sea captain who will pick you up from the pier for a private fishing charter.
Please contact me directly about availability.

Twisted Nerve/Kill Bill
S01E01 Pilot / S01E05 Halloween pt. 2
As submitted by Anonymous:
I've always noticed multiple references throughout the show as well. One thing that stood out to me was the song Tate was whistling. It was originally used in the 1968 film "Twisted Nerve" (as well as Kill Bill). In the film, the main character Martin has a younger mentally challenged brother, his father passes away, his mother finds a new husband, and he likes this girl and kills anyone who gets in his way. I definitely think Tate's character was modeled after Martin.
As mentioned above, the Twisted Nerve theme (by previously established AHS favorite, Bernard Herrmann) was also featured in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill. The song scores a scene in which Elle Driver calmly walks down a hospital hallway, staring straight forward, preparing to kill an unsuspecting (and unconscious) Bride. While she doesn't like The Bride, Elle remarks that her death is one born of respect.
This is mirrored by Tate's walk down Westfield High's halls before he starts shooting classmates. Both scenes also involve characters who wear a sort of costume (Tate's skeleton makeup and Elle's nurse uniform) to complete their task.
As Kill Bill was released many years after Tate's death, this part of the reference is obviously from the writers' behalf, not from the character himself.

The new and returning cadets were then in-processed with the usual paperwork before conducting a "round robin" of three stations. The first of these stations was a brief familiarization to the Accessions Process by the Battalion Operations Officer, c/MAJ Jason Robinson. Next, the cadets went into the Computer Lab where c/CPT Pavel Potoplyak, the Battalion Personnel Officer, taught a class on the new interactive AROTC website (for a membership request, please contact c/CPT Potoplyak at firstname.lastname@example.com). The final station was a trip to the supply room with c/CPT Morford, the Battalion Supply Officer. Here, contracted cadets received one set of ACUs and one set of BDUs, while non-contracted cadets received a set of BDUs. Everyone received the summer Physical Fitness Uniform and their Military Science textbooks. In preparing them for the upcoming semester this orientation proved to be a great success.

Dragonfly Gets $3Million Angel for HD Video Network
Dragonfly, an Internet video distribution provider, announced it has closed over $3 million in funding to date from a group of strategic individual investors. Dragonfly is using this investment to enhance its world-class multimedia content delivery network. In the coming months, the company will be looking to build out its partner network in an effort to more quickly integrate and monetize high-quality HD video into additional portals and platforms.
Dragonfly's investment comes at a time when the online video market is exploding. With the streaming video market estimated at $1.38 billion in 2007 and growing, bringing affordable, turnkey video solutions to market is a high priority among businesses looking to take advantage of this fast-growing market. Recognizing that higher-quality video content is going to create deeper revenue streams, companies are looking for video solutions that are easy to produce, optimize, manage and monetize.
Additionally, the model for video distribution is changing too as more businesses opt out of using traditional low-res YouTube-like videos and turn to higher-quality videos. With the goal of keeping viewers engaged on Web sites for longer periods of time, these businesses are seeing that the stickiness of better quality keeps viewers engaged longer and thereby increases revenue streams.
Previously, the primary drawback of producing high-quality, long-form video online was the often cost-prohibitive expense of building out a video network to showcase these videos. Using Dragonfly's flagship product, Movie Maker(R), companies can publish, track, monetize and analyze video on their Web sites using Dragonfly's turnkey, low-cost platform. With Dragonfly, businesses don't have to invest in expensive video networks, so they can quickly and affordably bring fresh content to market. Dragonfly is also working with its partner network to create video portals for trade associations looking to bring their membership together on the Web for revenue sharing opportunities.
Guy Nouri, founder and CEO of Dragonfly, as well as an early pioneer in video technology, explained that in this frenzied video environment where content providers are eager to get high-quality video streamed to viewers, video quality, performance, viewer analytics and affordability are "make or break" components in a delivery strategy.
"Not only is the market growing dramatically, but there's a seminal transformation underway today as content providers look to improve the online viewer experience by featuring their content in full screen HD," he said. "With Dragonfly's technology, we are improving video quality on any device and wrapping in advanced analytics and metrics at an affordable price. For the mid-tier business market, this is a significant advancement. Our customers have access to high-quality, full screen, HD video without spending millions of dollars on a video network."
Dragonfly Movie Maker gives companies superior control, tools, management and analytical capabilities to deal with the technical complexities associated with moving large media libraries nto the Internet.
Dragonfly Movie Maker Feature Highlights:
- Easy player configurability
Create players in any size, any shape and with any combination of features such as thumbnails, channel lists and communication trays. The communication tray may be configured to include embed buttons with flexible site messaging enabled.
- Archived content is easily delivered to new audiences
Embed Movie Maker in a Web page as an 'iframe,' as a single line embed or as a standard Flash object, which allows Dragonfly content to be used in most blogs, any Web page, eBay listings and social network pages such as MySpace and Facebook.
- Highly flexible profiles
Multiple profiles can easily be configured to display content created for one Dragonfly site in different configurations and in different places. Through profiles you can feature channels on separate sites when it is appropriate to highlight specific video information. For example, when a magazine's breaking news includes a story regarding a prominent figure, the associated video interview can be offered to enhance the Web viewer experience.
- Full spectrum video including HD
Full spectrum video qualities and resolutions are supported including HD. Dragonfly is able to optimize the quality of the video output by adjusting the resolution and bitrate among other parameters.
- Drag and drop user definable content
Interfaces with fully brandable and embeddable widgets, based upon the Yahoo! widget engine. This allows easy drag and drop creation of Dragonfly sites for user generated content.
- Easily supported channels
Multiple content formats such as slides, video and audio are supported. Multiple videos may be included on a single channel with audio automatically ramping down to allow video audio track to play prominently.
- Comprehensive reporting and analytics
Comprehensive channel and slide analytics using Dragonfly's Vunit(TM) measurement system provide for real-time tracking in 10-second increments.
- Dragonfly Movie Maker is commercially available and shipping.

Brachydactyly is a general term that refers to disproportionately short fingers and toes. Brachydactyly can occur as an isolated finding, or be associated with a pattern of medical findings, called a syndrome. To date, many different forms of brachydactyly have been identified. As a group, they include shortened tubular bones in the hands and feet. Some forms may also result in short stature or affect joint function. Many types of isolated brachydactyly are inherited. X-rays can help physicians differentiate between different types of brachydactyly.
Symphalangism refers to a failure to form normal finger joints. Synosostes refer to fusions involving joints in other parts of the body.
Clinical examination and X-rays are helpful in diagnosing symphalangism and synostoses. In older children and adults, X-rays reveal bony fusions across joints. Other imaging strategies may be needed to look for altered joint formation in young children.
We found that mutations in the gene GDF5 (also called CDMP1) are one cause of brachydactyly type C. Other investigators have now identified other gene mutations that can cause brachydactyly type C. We found that mutations in the gene NOG are one cause of symphalangism and synostoses. Other investigators have now identified other gene mutations that can cause these disorders.
We are still interested in understanding how joints form and how the bones in our hands and feet are patterned. We are happy to speak with families who may be affected with brachydactyly, symphalangism, or synostoses and who are interested in helping us to identify new genes that are involved in this process.
Among the questions we want to answer are:

Sarah Jane Morris Welcomes a Daughter Named…

WHAT IT MEANS: Beautiful
WHERE IT ORIGINATED: A commonly used word in the French language (and therefore not used in French speaking countries as a given name), Beau has been used in the U.S. since the late 19th century.

KNOW THIS: Beau is traditionally used for boys. It gained traction when appeared in Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind as the name of Ashley and Melanie's son.
POP CULTURE CONNECTION: A famous female bearer of the name is actress and model Bo Derek, who was born Mary Cathleen Collins.

Interesting choice. It's the male version of "beautiful" in French, isn't it? (From what I remember from high school French.) I think I like the Bo spelling better, but it's kind of cute. Love that she has a classic middle name to go with it.

A word from Rosa Mexicano - Lincoln Center
Our highly anticipated second Rosa Mexicano location opened in July 2000. Just steps away from Lincoln Center, this impressive David Rockwell-designed space features a 30-foot iridescent blue tile water wall that spans both levels of the restaurant and is adorned with 240 miniature cliff divers. Here you'll also find a dramatic "floating" staircase made of orange and red terrazzo slabs and backlit panels behind the bar embedded with rose petals. Awarded "Best Restaurant 2000" by Interiors Magazine, this unique, contemporary look ushered in a new era for us at Rosa Mexicano.Continued

- Very enjoyableTime2eatDined on 9/17/2014We decided to go to Rosa Mexicano near Lincoln Center because we had tickets for the NY Philharmonic... We were able to eat outdoors since the weather was perfect for mid-September in NYC. The guacamole was terrific, as was the Sangria, and our entrees...two of us had salmon, two of us enjoyed the braised beef. My husband does not like spicy food but he was able to have the spicy sauce on the side, do he was very happy. Service was very good. All in all, we had a most enjoyable dinner.MJSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Bland FoodCanadaPalmSpringsDined on 9/9/2014The ambiance and service was good but the food was bland. We had guacamole, queso fundido, fish tacos and carnitas tacos. Everything was okay but not much flavor. There is much better mexican food in the city for a lot less money.Special Features:
- Too Noisy!!!golightly66Dined on 9/8/2014The food is good but overpriced. The guacamole was very good but the portion too small for two people. About 5% of the tables are in a section of the restaurant that that be called reasonably quiet.

All of our entrees looked beautiful and tasted even better. Our server answered all our questions. He offered entree suggestions for two of our guests, and they were more than satisfied with their meals. I highly recommend any of the house specialties, but the chicken kabob dish was wonderful!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and really great serviceElKayDined on 8/31/2014Took a friend and her two teenage friends to the restaurant and while the great food was to be expected, we had such great service. Very friendly and attentive (I judge attentiveness by how often the waiter stops by and he checked in A LOT). This place has been a favorite of ours for a long time, and remains a great Lincoln Center meeting place. Don't miss the table-made guacamole, carne asada tacos, and pomegranate margaritas. All three our crowd favorites for a reason.Special Features:

- A Lincoln Center WinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2002VIPDined on 8/29/2014Of all of the NYC outposts of the venerable Rosa Mexicano empire, the Lincoln Center branch is my personal favorite for its spaciousness, which renders it, even at its busiest and most frenetic, still conducive to conversation -- something difficult at the more cacophonous Union Square and cramped East Side locations. Also, the food and service is much more consistent at Lincoln Center than the other two. Guacamole prepared table side has become something of a cliche, but I've yet to find a restaurant that makes it taste quite as good as RM LC. And while entrees in the past have been hit or miss, lately everything coming out of the kitchen -- even the sides -- has been tasting fresher, and somehow both lighter AND more savory. Excelente!Special Features:
- Creative Food and DrinksOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 8/23/2014The guacamole is the best in NY, and the enchiladas are superb. The choice of drinks is also impressive. One of the best places to dine before attending an event at Lincoln Center.Special Features:
- chiquitaDined on 8/23/2014As always, the food was excellent, and the service was especially above and beyond.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I think they've slipped a littleHappyeaterVIPDined on 8/22/2014This used to be one of my very favorite restaurants but they've made some changes to their menu and now it is quite overpriced (they charge extra now for things that used to be included). The food is still tasty, but I'm not sure its worth it as there are more upscale restaurants to dine in at this price point. It's also too noisy - they should try to work on the acoustics.
- Great pomergrante martiniangieDined on 8/22/2014Food service and food was good as usual. The steak taco was good. I will try the grilled chicken next cause I tried my friends and it was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great special occasion diningeatoutwstyleDined on 8/22/2014Atmosphere was beautiful . Service and food excellent. Great drinks. Did not rush us. Would definitely return.sSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Winning guacamoleSpangleNYCVIPDined on 8/20/2014We very much enjoyed dining here with friends: the noise level was acceptable and the food very tasty and basically reasonably priced. One can alter the spice level of the guacamole as desired with hot sauces on the side, important with 4 of us ranging from wanting it mild to very spicy. After many evenings of Italian and Chinese and seafood, it was an interesting and delicious change of pace to have Mexican which was beautifully presented and tasty. There is an increased sense of fun here too, because of the variety and range of dishes, with something for every taste.Special Features:
- We eat here every time we visit NYCkendraDined on 8/19/2014Eating at Rosa Mexicano has become routine for my coworkers and I. We are in NYC twice a year for the International NYNow gift fair (August and Jan/Feb) and we make a point of eating at Rosa every time we're in town (sometimes more than once per trip!). The menu was new and different this visit and I loved it. I ordered a trio of enchiladas and loved all of them. As always, the pomegranate margaritas were superb. I opted for dessert at this meal and was VERY happy with my choice! The chocolate and salted caramel icecreams I enjoyed were AMAZINGLY fantastic!! Yum!Special Features:

Fried fish sandwiches are SO incredibly good. But typically, they are dripping with grease and loaded with extra and unnecessary fat and calories. So when I found this Weight Watchers Fish Sandwich Recipe for the Momentum Plan, I was really excited to give it a try! I made a few alterations to it, knocked a whole Point off the original recipe and added more fiber. And it turned out really, really GOOD!!! It's technically not "fried" – it's a baked fish sandwich recipe. But it delivers a very similar (if not, better) taste and has a LOT less fat and calories. Plus the fact that it packs in so much protein and fiber makes it an excellent Momentum Recipe to incorporate into your Weight Watchers New Year's Diet Plan! Serve it up with some tasty 1 Point Butternut Squash French Fries, and you've got yourself one AMAZINGLY yummy low Weight Watchers Points meal!
Weight Watchers Momentum Plan "Fried" Fish Sandwich Recipe
- 1 spray olive oil cooking spray, or enough to coat pan and fish
- 1/2 cup Fiber One cereal, ground to a powder like consistency
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 /12 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 1/4 pound cod fillet, (four 5 oz pieces)
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 4 medium sized mixed-grain hamburger rolls
- 8 pieces lettuce
- 4 slices onion
- 1 small tomato, sliced
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
Combine Fiber One crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Coat both sides of each cod fillet with mustard and then turn fish in Fiber One crumbs mixture to coat. Arrange fillets on baking sheet and spray surface with cooking spray. Bake until fish is fork-tender and coating is golden brown, about 20 minutes.
Place fish on rolls and top each with 2 lettuce leaves and 1/4 of tomato and onion slices.
** I also topped each sandwich with a tablespoon of McCormick's Fat Free Tarter Sauce (this did not increase Points value)
Serving size is 1 Sandwich
Each Serving = 5 Weight Watchers Points

Roman Polanski's adap of Hardy's Tess Of The D'Urbervilles was shot in Brittany and Normandy, as the director couldn't risk extradition by visiting Britain.
But it's visually lovely, even if the fake Stonehenge built for the climactic scene irresistibly recalls This Is Spinal Tap.
In fact, the visual lushness does become a bit cloying and, in the title role, 18-year-old Nastassja Kinski never convinces as a simple peasant girl.
Tess picked up three Oscars, including a joint one for DoPs Geoffrey Unsworth (who died mid-shoot) and Ghislain Cloquet, but from the maker of Rosemary's Baby and Repulsion it all feels oddly bland.

This is the 2008 C-Class wagon caught in Scandinavia during cold weather testing. After we seen the 2008 Mercedes Benz C-Class sedan we won't expect to see a daring design for the wagon model either. This prototype wears little camouflage but there's is nothing to hide.
Even its extended rear end is covered, is easy to imagine how it should look. The tail-lights are camouflaged but you can observe that they are not so big, so the back door will have no part of that. The wagon will normally use the engines from the sedan, it will weight more but those engines have plenty of power.
The car will be optional available with Mercedes four-wheel drive called 4matic.The official presentation will be made latter this year with the commercialization at the beginning of the 2008.

I've been bad about writing. Sorry. A lot has been going on, is going on, and will be going on.
All animals are alive and well. We may be moving yet again. I feel bad. My dog seems to really hate moving. I'm also probably entering that annoying phase where I'll be moving every year for a while. Or maybe not. I'm going to have to be extra nice to my dog when we move.
My knees are okay. Still walking. Having troubles again but trying to work it out. Thinking about (finally) committing to taking two or three yoga classes a week to stretch out my muscles and hopefully build new ones. No hot yoga, just regular gentle yoga. I've seen two places that look promising, one in Harlem and one right by Dykeman. Since I may very well be moving to one of those neighborhoods it will work out well.
I'll be living with at least one roommate. Not sure yet. They want to live in Manhattan with some interest in Queens or Brooklyn. I was specifically told "not The Bronx!!" so I'll refrain from looking at all the listings for big, beautiful, cheap apartments up here.
It will be nice to be free. Interesting to be a city gal again. I love The Bronx and wouldn't mind living in my old neighborhood (I'd love it actually) but at the same time I love the city. West side, uptown, love it. I'd enjoy living in Inwood and have my eye on an awesome apartment up there.
We're also looking at one of those modern marble kitchen counter apartments in Harlem. Right next to the train station, which is important. All we insist upon is an elevator building (or possibly first or second floor apartment) and being close to the train. I don't ever want to be more than two blocks from the train. And this apartment is one short block from the train.
I still have my two jobs and am looking for another one. Ideally one where I'm not as mobile so my knees can rest. I've been applying to a lot of different jobs and once I get my new Manhattan address I have a good shot at a permanent position in the city that would pay well enough for me.
My birthday is coming up. A big birthday for me. Low key celebration though because money is super tight. Thinking of having a friend of mine show me how to make Korean oxtail. I love oxtail and she says she wants me to try her Korean oxtail to see if I like it as well. I am quite confident that I will because it will be a meal made out of the tail of an ox.
All my time has been taken up with work, physical therapy, fighting with insurance companies, looking for another job, and looking for an apartment. Sleep too, very important. Haven't been super social but in my own way I am, which is to hang out with one person at a time. My dog and I are the same, we don't do well in large groups. Once I move I'll be much more social though since my roommate(s) are going to be going out and I suppose I will as well.
My best friend is getting married this year. Best friend duties require me to be maid of honor. Which means I have to wear a stupid dress and get my stupid hair done and wear stupid makeup. None of which I EVER do. I've worn makeup once in my life. I suppose we all must make sacrifices. I already went with her (she dragged me screaming and crying) to try on dresses and we picked one out. A cute little-but-not-too-little light green dress that makes me feel like a Greek goddess. Going to have to get pictures of me in grown up clothes! This is the type of thing that will only occur when my friends get married and make me dress up for it.
Time to go check Avian Avenue and see if any Sidewalk Sales are coming up soon.

(BEIJING, CHINA) -- Authorities in southern China's Guangdong Province have seized 5.2 million pirated pornographic movie discs from two vessels, the official Xinhua News Agency said Friday, identifying it as the biggest haul ever confiscated in a single outing.
A police launch was dispatched Monday night after a tip that two vessels loaded with pirated discs were unloading at a port in the city of Huizhou that night.
Police spotted one vessel at sea but found the smugglers had already fled, Xinhua said. Aboard, authorities found about 2.2 million pornographic discs in 2,200 boxes.
Another vessel, found at about the same time off the coast of Huizhou, was carrying over 3 million porn discs, Xinhua said.
It was unclear whether the movies were DVDs or cheaper, less-sophisticated VCDs, which are also very popular in the Chinese market. Xinhua also did not give details on what kind of sexually explicit material the discs contained.
Earlier this month, customs officers in Shantou, another city in Guangdong, seized more than 3 million pirated discs from a smuggling vessel.
China, newly admitted to the World Trade Organization, is in the midst of what it calls a nationwide battle against counterfeit and pirated products, and movies - as intellectual property - are a prime target. The government also takes a strict stance against any kind of pornography.
Regional authorities, especially in southern China, often hold public destructions of pirated discs, enlisting steam rollers and wood chippers to turn the movie and music discs into millions of plastic shards.
