Priest hails world first robotic eye surgery as 'simple'
An associate priest said he felt "completely relaxed" as British surgeons performed revolutionary surgery inside his eye with the aid of a robot.
The patient, Father William Beaver, 70, an associate priest at St Mary the Virgin Church in Oxford, said his eyesight was returning following the operation, having previously experienced distorted vision similar to "looking in a hall of mirrors at a fairground".
The procedure - the world's first robotic operation - was carried out by surgeons at Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital, who welcomed its success and said it could revolutionise the way such conditions are treated.
Father Beaver told BBC Breakfast: "I was completely relaxed and completely comfortable because I could see that all the technology was in place and all the goodwill was in place and all the skills were in place.
"Because, you see, the key is the precision. The pulse... coursing through the hand of the surgeon could have ruined it, could have given me a haemorrhage and this just made it, well, simple."
On completing the operation, Professor Robert MacLaren said: "There is no doubt in my mind that we have just witnessed a vision of eye surgery in the future.
"Current technology with laser scanners and microscopes allows us to monitor retinal diseases at the microscopic level, but the things we see are beyond the physiological limit of what the human hand can operate on.
"With a robotic system, we open up a whole new chapter of eye operations that currently cannot be performed."
The procedure was necessary because the patient had a membrane growing on the surface of his retina, which had contracted and pulled it into an uneven shape. The membrane is about 100th of a millimetre thick and needed to be dissected off the retina without damaging it.
Surgeons normally attempt this by slowing their pulse and timing movements between heart beats, but the robot could make it much easier. Experts said the robot could enable new, high-precision procedures that are currently out of the reach of the human hand.
The surgeons used a joystick and touchscreen outside the eye to control the robot while monitoring its progress through the operating microscope. This gave medics a notable advantage as significant movements of the joystick resulted in tiny movements of the robot.
This is the first time a device has been available that achieves the three-dimensional precision required to operate inside the human eye.
Speaking at his follow-up visit at the Oxford Eye Hospital, Father Beaver said: "My sight is coming back.
"I am delighted that my surgery went so well and I feel honoured to be part of this pioneering research project."
Prof MacLaren said: "This will help to develop novel surgical treatments for blindness, such as gene therapy and stem cells, which need to be inserted under the retina with a high degree of precision."
The current robotic eye surgery trial involves 12 patients undergoing operations with increasing complexity. In the first part of the trial, the robot is used to peel membranes off the delicate retina without damaging it.
If this part is successful, as has been the case so far, the second phase of the trial will assess how the robot can place a fine needle under the retina and inject fluid through it.
Experts said this will lead to use of the robot in retinal gene therapy, a new treatment for blindness which is currently being trialled in a number of centres around the world.

The Oswego State men's ice hockey team begin their 44th season with one lingering question: How do you replace the 13 seniors that graduated during the offseason?
Last year's SUNYAC runners-up have 14 new players on their roster (12 freshmen and two junior transfers) for the upcoming season. In total, the Lakers' roster includes 12 freshmen, seven sophomores, seven juniors and only four seniors.
Head coach Ed Gosek returns to the bench for his seventh season with the team and admits that it has been quite an offseason for him and his staff.
"It's been busy, there's no question," Gosek said. "It was a long process. It's a bigger class than we would like to replace. We keep saying that we would like to get the classes balanced out, which makes our lives easier. But the truth of the matter is we haven't been able to do that."
Oswego State lost almost twice as many seniors as any other team in the SUNYAC. SUNY Geneseo graduated the second most.
The lack of seniors on the team made the decision of who should be the captain and assistant captains easier on the coaching staff. This year's team will be captained by senior defenseman Tyler Lyon, along with assistant captains Brad Dormiedy and Neil Musselwhite, both senior forwards. Lyon, a native of Foxboro, Ontario, has played in 76 games with the Lakers, registering 10 goals and 21 assists for a total of 31 points. Dormiedy, a native of Ajax, Ontario, has played in 72 games with the Lakers, tallying 11 goals and 19 assists for a total of 30 points. Musselwhite, a native of Burlington, Ontario, has appeared in 79 games with the Lakers, netting 21 goals and 19 assists for a total of 40 points.
"It's their time to shine and take the reigns of this team," Gosek said. "They've paid their dues. They're the last three guys that were part of the championship team. All three are pretty soft-spoken. Not a lot of vocal leadership but very good leadership in terms of the classroom, weight room, off-ice habits, doing the right things, being good people and by leading with hard work on the ice. We see those all as positives."
It will be the responsibility of the three captains to ensure that the freshmen are ready to play once the season begins. By NCAA rule, coaches were not allowed to conduct practices until Oct. 15, which means that it was the captains' responsibility to hold practices to build team unity. The NCAA rule also states that the coaching staff is not allowed to observe the captains' practices, completely separating the coaching staff from their team. As a result, the coaching staff has just two days' worth of practice before their exhibition game against Royal Military College on Saturday, Oct. 17. According to Gosek, the exhibition will serve as more of an evaluation than anything else. It will also serve as the first collegiate game for the freshmen, and give the coaching staff an idea of how they can contribute.
"Some of them are going to be able to help us right away," Gosek said of the freshmen. "Some will be ready to help us a lot. Some will be ready to help us a little. Some will be consistent and some will be inconsistent and some won't be ready."
The freshmen aren't the only concern for the Lakers this season; the goaltending position is also filled with question marks. Much like at the beginning of last season, the Lakers go into this season without having chosen a starting goaltender. In the second half of last season, Clarkson transfer Tim Potter filled the void and posted a 10-2 record, with the only losses coming against SUNY Plattsburgh. Prior to Potter's arrival, goalies Chris Hyk and Paul Beckwith went a combined 8-6-1 in the first half of the season. Potter has been dismissed from the team for undisclosed reasons, leaving the Lakers with Beckwith, senior Kyle Gunn-Taylor and freshman Daniel Jones.
"The bottom line is goaltending." Gosek said. "You can have a great team but if you don't have good goaltending, it's going to be a short season. You can have an average team with a great goalie and go a long way. We'll need our goalies to make saves and keep us in games while we develop team unity. We always have a goals against average around two goals per game and we've been pretty consistent with that over the past four years. If we don't have a goalie at the end of the year somewhere in between a 92 and 94 [save percentage], we won't go very far. If we can get good goaltending then I think we can be as good as or better than last year's team."
The goaltending position will need to be solidified early on because there are no easy games on the schedule. The Lakers open the regular season at home against Elmira on Friday, Oct. 23 before going on the road for six consecutive games. Those six road games include Elmira, Buffalo State, SUNY Fredonia, SUNY Potsdam, Plattsburgh and SUNY Cortland. Along with the games against Elmira, Oswego State has a difficult non-conference schedule that includes games against Utica (twice), Hamilton, Hobart, Connecticut College, Milwaukee School of Engineering and Adrian College.
The SUNYAC is entering its 51st year and one could argue that the conference is getting more and more competitive every year. Last season, Plattsburgh, who went 15-0-1 in SUNYAC play, tied Potsdam, who went 6-6-4 in SUNYAC play, while Oswego State tied Morrisville, who went 1-14-1 in SUNYAC play. Seven of the nine conference teams had at least five victories in conference play last season.
"The league in general is better," Gosek said. "All the coaches are working harder and bringing in better players. There is more of a commitment, the players are committed. It's tough trying to stay at the top. Everybody's gunning for you and everybody is working hard to knock you off of where you've been. I think you will see our league this year and in the years to come become a powerhouse league."
Plattsburgh has dominated the SUNYAC since the beginning, winning 19 of the 50 conference titles (38 percent), usually defeating the Lakers in the conference championship game. The frequent championship meetings between Oswego State and Plattsburgh are why it has become one of the greatest rivalries in all of Division III.
"We don't circle that game only because you can't be caught looking ahead," Gosek said. "Of course they're a good team and if you want to win the SUNYAC championship for the regular season, then you're going to at least need to get a split against them. But it's fun. For us as coaches, it's enjoyable."
While defeating Plattsburgh would make players and fans happy, it doesn't accomplish the team's goal for the season. For each season, the Lakers' coaching staff sets a series of goals, which include winning the SUNYAC regular season first, then winning the SUNYAC championship, then getting through the NCAA Tournament one game at a time. The Lakers have not been back to the NCAA Tournament since winning the championship in 2007, but Gosek believes that his team is good enough to make it back there this season.
"We hope not to be outworked by any team, Gosek said. "We pride ourselves on our work ethic and to be the hardest working team in the SUNYAC. We'll be well prepared, we will work extremely hard, I hope we will be disciplined and be one of the least penalized teams in the league. If those things all happen, then we'll be in a position to be considered for a position in the NCAA tournament."
The Lakers will have a new face on the coaching staff as well this season. Former Lakers hockey player Ryan Woodward, a 2007 Oswego State graduate, will join Gosek's staff, hoping to bring his experience to the team. Woodward, a captain in his senior year, played in 114 games for the Lakers, contributing 58 goals and 87 assists for a total of 145 points.
"I think he can be very helpful in helping to guide our freshmen and understanding how to balance academics and athletics," Gosek said. "He can tell the players how to balance the social life with the conditioning part of hockey. He can maybe bridge that gap between players and coaches. We're excited to have the extra help."
The Lakers will open up their fourth season in the Campus Center Ice Arena on Saturday, Oct. 17 in the exhibition game against Royal Military College before opening the regular season on Friday, Oct. 23 against Elmira in a non-conference game.

So I would like to start off by saying it is great to be contributing to moviepilot.com and I wanted to have my first article be something interesting but not too mainstream for the moment. Also I was given this movie by my older brother when i asked to borrow something I hadn't seen. He gave this to me and told me that i NEEDED to watch it and that i shouldnt read the back or look up reviews or anything. "JUST WATCH IT, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED!" is what he said. Now to the review...
Warning: SPOILERS AHEAD!
Afflicted opened with average credits and no song playing as they rolled......Then.....FOUND FOOTAGE (i was pissed at first because i feel like even though it can be used correctly the majority of found footage films feel forced or gimmicky). To my surprise i was extremely invested in both main characters very quickly into the movie(6 minutes to be exact). In those first 6 minutes the two main characters are introduced, there is Derek Lee who has a very rare condition that means his brain can basically give out on him at any moment, so he wants to travel the world for a year and live out his dreams but he needs someone to watch his back as well. Cue Clif, Clif is dereks longtime best friend who has always had his back and stuck by his side, he is his companion on this trip and is documenting it for people to see their amazing journey(not too bad of a found footage concept i might add).
So they have a going away party with throwaway characters that mean nothing to the story then they are off to their first destination. Meanwhile dereks family disagrees with the entire idea of the trip fearing he will get injured. When we arrive at their first stop they meet with friends in a band and travel to paris with them. While in Paris they all try getting Derek laid. "Just say i have a brain aneurism wanna have sex?" clif even says jokingly. Finally we see derek with a very attractive girl, so as good friends should(lol) they decide to cockblock him while hes in the room with the woman. When they open the door they find Derek knocked out with cuts and a head wound with no woman in sight. Over the next few hours Derek sleeps most of the day away. When he finally gets out Derek cannot consume food because he pukes it all up for some reason. Clif suggests going to the hospital but Derek declines because he believes the doctors will not let him leave if he goes due to his condition. At lunch Derek acts strange and his skin is also getting very irritated for some wierd reason.
During a fit of rage as Clif tries to convince Derek to go to the hospital Derek punches a huge hole through the wall(pure drywall). They test his newfound "powers"(it gets very Chronicle-esque for a little). As the days go by Derek still cant hold down any food. (at this point my girlfriend thought he might be possessed by the girl from paris but i wasnt convinced, i was still confused but then it all became clear when he craved one thing) BLOOD!!! WHAT?!?!?!?!?! i was watching a vampire movie and i didnt know it until like halfway through. They try old blood, then pigs blood, but they realize it has to be fresh human blood so they try robbing a bloodbank which backfires and gives the authorities all their information. Derek tells Clif if it gets worse to leave so nothing bad happens. Clif cannot leave his bestfriend and eventually suffers the consequences and a cruel death at the hands of his best friend.
Derek shown crying and apologizing to Clif and to everyone. Derek sees only one solution, track down the mysterious woman from Paris because it had to have started with her(he keeps the cameras rolling to honor Clif). after some pretty amazing low-budget special effects and some chase scenes involving interpol, local police, and somehow Dereks brother(used by interpol to draw him out i guess). Derek finally gets to paris and finds his own little batcave while searching for the woman and trying not to feed. Eventually he catches a break and finds her phone and texts every number in it and waits hoping it will lead somewhere. And it leads to an old man that clearly knows the woman and seems to be helping her in someway. Derek tells the man he will stay here until the woman comes or until he cannot hold off on feeding anymore and he eats him.
The woman shows up and tells Derek he was a mistake. They have a pretty good tussle then she says there is no cure and if Derek doesnt feed then he will turn to something much worse. She says you have to kill but you can choose who to kill. Derek then tells his family over the cameras that he cannot come home as he is dangerous and immortal now (nothing kills these vamps not even a wooden stake through the heart). He is shown to only kill bad people as he munches on a child murdere/rapist(isnt made clear).
We see three young people going midnight swimming.....they get half naked...then Clif eats them and is shown to be the "worse thing you can become" if not feeding. END
final review score 9/10
the originality brought to this film and the great use of found footage is what i loved the most. but this movie had great acting, screenwriting, setup, conclusion.
in a world of twilight and vampire diaries its awesome to see a vampire movie so refreshing and original that if you dont read the box and go in blind then you won't even know what its about until the characters figure it out!!! A+

Fire crews take the bull by the horns and rescue Billy from a tree
A bull with his head stuck in a tree has been rescued by fire crews - using a winch and a riot shield.
Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service said a crew equipped with specialist large animal rescue equipment responded to the unusual emergency in a field off Barby Road in Rugby shortly before 11am on Monday.
Another appliance based in Southam also attended and the hapless animal, named Billy by his rescuers, was freed at about 12.15pm.
In a post on its Facebook page, the fire service said: "The crew had to use a winch, strop and riot shield to remove the bull from the tree.
"The bull was released back in to the field and seems none the worse for wear for the ordeal."

Question I have an Evo Samsung, I'm getting a card read of 2 read and 7 write and the card is a class 10 48mbs 64gb in a Galaxy Tab Pro, 2.3ghz quad-core. The internals clocked in at 143mbs read. I'm wondering if my card is fake now.
Wow, this app is great It's an amazing app, thanks. Using it just found out that my Samsung Galaxy Core 2 can only support/take 14MB/s write speed of my microSD Samsung EVO 64GB, which can go up to 22 MB/s. Nice, Samsung, nice, you guys sell microSD EVO cards for smartphones that are so fast (22MB/s), but your phones can only go up to 14MB/s. Sickening...
Tyler Nunya
Great app Found out my Huawei benches better than Samsung.....didn't expect that. But I did see that most Huawei phones generally do.
Fabio Shiota
Good benchmark Good to see how your card performs on your phone. Often the phone's subsystems end up not taking advantage of the latest specs in microSD cards, and this app shows you how it really goes.
Marco K
Slow, not stand alone Results are not displayed after measurement, only along others from Internet history. Does not work without Internet. Maybe measurements are accurate, but it is very slow. App stops measurement when screen is turned off and on again, also happens when app is out of focus. No messages are given. App will measure even when memory is (heavily) used in the background, thus giving wrong measurements. Fix the above, and you receive 5 stars from me.
Peter Stindl
Good. Did not improve my life but showed interesting data. Just don't cheat yourself by selecting the quick test.
Nezih Kanbur
Simple but serious Benchmarks the sd card, internal storage and ram performance. Hide ads for 3 hours option in program settings on the free version shows how the matter is taken seriously. (Ads may slow down the data flow) As an answer to user Heritic below, you can simply take out the card and check the brand and model. It is written on the card. Don't rate programs in an unjust, 'I would rate you five stars if the developer gives me a Thai massage' manner.
Heritic Shmifd
Useless Nice try,but useless without capturing sdxc manufacturer,class and model number............wow that guys card was fast...i want that card in my phone ! too bad we dont know what he was using...! Duh. Useless.
siddharth mulki
Fake card? I just ran the test and it shows a writing speed of 2.77mb/s and reading speed of 2.44mb/s. Mine is Samsung evo 64gb card class 10 and it a speed of 48mb/s so does that mean my card is a fake?
David Stomkin
SD Bench Does exactly what the name suggests. IDs your SD card and puts the card thru its paces on several different levels. A nifty little utility to wring out your card's details and read/write performance.
Anilkumar K.N.
Awesome!!! The benchmarking is time consuming but satisfactory. Feature to compare is another awesome thing. Didn'guaranteeing to reduce a star....

On start It displays about 5 sd cards in phone? Touch the screen during benchmark and it stops test, only one I've found at least working tho cant be sure on its accuracy tho my evo only writing at 4mbs?
Jacek Janiszewski
Not functional on Note 3 File for the 2nd step could not be found. Perhaps media is not ready yet. Benchmark canceled. Target file: storage/extSdCard/SDbench-test-file...tmp Also throws EACCESS error. What can I say, it's broken, 1/5.
Nick Bauer
Great application I use this for all my memory benchmarks. Curently using an samsung S5 with Verizon service.
MKhairul Osman
Great! But, would you adding sort by top score option?
Harry Whitecross
A-1 Dev This new version is very good, giving an interesting look into an under rated phone. Internal speeds are greater than expected given ratings on Amazon. Com. Looking forward to my review. We'll done.
arif malik
BEWARE The test results vary with different tests at different times. Sometimes you would have w/speed of 22mb/sec and sometimes merely 2mb/sec. It differs a lot. This is app is not a reliable tool to check your SD Card. Go for a reliable app. BEWARE of this highly rated-not-so-helpful app.
Ernie V
Makes no sense I could tell it to test and it would take a long time testing then when done it gave no results? Made no sense
Juan Reynoso
Works. The naming for internal and external storage seems confusing on my sm-n910t
Darren Ramhit
Excellent for checking read/write speed on sd cards.
Rohan Mehta
Super app to test SD Speed. This is only app worked for my NOTE 3.
Kostas K
Excellent app for testing the SD read/write Using this app it was intetesting to ser that he same SD achieved different speeds on different devices! It would be nice however, if there was an option to switch between continous and random access test.
Vinicius Thedim
Needs improvements It could store benchmarks history with user notes for easy comparison.
Arinze Egbuniwe
I used this app to kind of authenticate a micro sd card I bought. The card failed every test of the app. I wish had this app before buying it. Welldone!
Eddy Susanto
Good But my v-gen not in list..
Angus Malcolm
Fantastic results with SD-Boost Finally got round to properly testing various cache sizes and got these great results. Int-SD cache=512MB (R/W): Sys 39.90/21.17MB/s; Data 33.35/19.22MB/s; RAM 879.15MB/s. Ext-SD cache=1024MB: 14.70/12.21MB/s. Please note that I have already resized my internal SD card so Sys=6.0GB
Trevor Wuoti
Great Just what I needed to compare sd cards..
Alex Prohaska
Easy to use and understand. Works just as intended. Used on nvidia shield w/ k1 processor and San disk extreme pro mini sd card. Highly recommend.

Great app! Love it!! I am running this equally well on an HTC myTouch running Android 2.3.4, and a Galaxy Note 3 running Android 5.0. How accurate is the memory size statistic? Will this app correctly identify and test counterfeit SD cards that are significantly smaller than their stated size?
Murad Sheshani
Sony Z3 z2 nexus 7 owner Really nice app.. I recommend it to understand memory bottle neck better to everyone interested
Kristijonas Burksa
Superb app Although user experience is a bit clunky, it has a lot of functions. Nonetheless it's hard to justify some design elements strait from fryo or gingerbread times.
Ilham Ramadan Jasmin
Nice I can find which memory to put swap file to add more ram
Jun Cong
Good one! Like the online comparison. Duplicated items confusing.
Chris Bihary
Descent test Not completely accurate my SanDisk Extreme gets 49MBs read and 26 write. Same card on PC Crystal Mark gets 95R & 70W. Samsung EVOs suck on any platform for their write speed. EVO gets 10.5MBs write on USB3.0 using Crystal Mark x64
Michele Dall'Agata
It seems accurate. It is consistent with some test I did with the "dd" Linux command. 4 stars because the reboot option is not very convenient. It may give wrong results if one doesn't wait long enough until all apps are loaded after boot.
TK Wong
Useless app. Submit your scores blah, but can't see my OWN scores anywhere? Most stupid app ever.
peter trevethick
Useful, but even better if.... Handy being able to see others people's results for the same device. My results showed the write speed was only 7.5MB/s on a microsSD class 10 card (spec is minimum write speed 10MB/s). Others had achieved W:46MB/s, so I know what the phone should manage. It is a great pity the app doesn't read the card details and show the make; size; etc. on the results. That would be an ideal way to find the card most compatible with your device.
Stanisław Chlebek
Junk Just a speed tester. No accuracy or condition of partition tests. Basically waste of time
Daniel Gorodowienko
Reasonable As far as tests work, there is not enough settings to inform the application which partition belongs where (internal vs external).
Shyamanta Das
good but UI is dull and results are not accurate Benchmark is decent compared to pc software it shows more speed and sometimes slow read & write speed
Igor Flajsig
Wery goog and useful tool..Absolute user oriented and easy to use..with simple formatter or partition maker will be more useful.. congratulations
Randy Paura
Nifty utility. My external microSD card was suspect, so I installed this app. Answered my questions and gave the benchmark on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.5. Only suggestion for improvement would be a help menu so it could assist on its use.
Chandan Singh
Best app, and users please mention your sd card manufacturer Awesome app to understand your device performance sd card, internal storage and ram..my request to users is please mention your sd card manufacturer so that we can come to know which one is best...
Cezar I.
It's OK Too bad it cancels the benchmark every time you turn your device in portrait or landscape mode.
Luke B
Awesome Really good. 100% works. Lots of test modes for your needs, notifies when it detects a cached read. Good comparison features. And free!
Raphaël Mélotte
Miss results history I don't know about the accuracy but I like this app. I like the different choices to benchmark different cards. I miss a feature to save all the results to a file, or the ability to see my previous results along with performed tests though (without going on the Internet).
Sebastian Pereiro
Good tool but... Auto rotation of screen in during test stopping him. Fix it please.

Great..!! Great app. I just used my new samsund evo+ 32gb card in my asus zenfone 2. It's amazing, i got 22 mbps writing speed. Which is more than the card says.
Davidson De Ocampo
App does what it should but... My memory card and internal are shown multiple times... Dont know why...
Emily Allen
Used to test cheapo Chinese sd cards We bought 4 SD cards and 3 of them failed within a few days this software confirmed the failure but did not predict the failure.
Confusing Just wanted an easy reading. I ended up being in afrikkin social news feed for sd cards. Still couldn't find my results in the results tab. Uninstalling thanks
Mr Interested
Asked me to rate app in middle of test. This app asked me to rate it while it was in the middle of a long benchmark. Upon doing so it stopped the benchmark thus wasting my time.
zack gudal
Test sd not working It saids when i test my sd card that due to the madia not being ready the file for the second step could not be found.....yet the other type of test work fine. Why is that?
Gargantua Blargg
Ran test and afterwards told me I needed an internet connection to see results. Ran another test and it canceled because I tapped somewhere on the screen (didn't hit any cancel button). Went into settings to run quicker test and it didn't show the result. I went into results and it showed results from everyone, so I had to go through to find what I think was my phone (but no clear indication that it's my result). Text in results was very small. Very meh app.
Bear BearBear
it's okay won't benchMark in the backround if it did I'd give 4 stars
Ara Tidwell
5 star for free program! Tests RAM also. Small ad-band slightly detracts Program is great for testing new setups and Android tweaks with apps like L speed. I was able to properly evaluate my new and old microsd cards with this app as well as built in storage. RAM test feature proved great for evaluating Android kernel tweaks.
Artūrs Pupausis
A lot to improve! OK it test speed of my storage - give 3 stars. In my i9100 with 5.1 omni ROM I got SD cards other way - around internal SD card is Sandisk 64GB, but external is a partition in eMMC. 1. To improve correct issues like above. 2. Don't know is it even possible. Show actual chip name to see witch SD card is tested.

Good storage benchmarker, if not the best. Very good app for benchmarking the storage or memory of your device. My Nexus 7 2013 achieved 12mb/s write and 54mb/s read on its internal storage, which ain't bad considering its three years old. The only disappointment I have with the app is that there are ads. Other than that I highly recommend this app.
Mark Holtkamp
Very nice bench! Gives me the data I want to know across my devices and cards. Keep in mind people, not all devices are capable of the speeds your SD card suports!
Siddiqua A
Helped expose fake microsd Invaluable if you are thinking of buying sd cards that claim to be fast. Great way to check them. Bonus is all the other info about every bit if storage on your phone.
AAATech Lin
Great App for memory Test all SDs. Only suggestion is to create a stop button rather than jump out halfway if screen was touched bu accident and start over again...
John Morris
Simple and useful Does what it says. Plus, only small ads (another app had obnoxious full-screen ads that covered up results :P) that can even be temporarily disabled. Thank you! It would be nice if it identified the SD card model, like SD Insight, and compared to online database. Minor detail.
Filip Stoev
Problem with Note 4 Note 4 (N910F) EACESS denied, unable to test SD Card (32GB Verbatim UHS III). Error says that the file is not yet ready. I'll gladly fix the rating to five stars if the problem is resolved. Android version 5.1.1 (most likely OS limitation issue).
Julian Riva
Ran tests and clearly identified issues with what should have been a pro card but obviously was not. This and SD Insight are must haves in identifying fakes.
Harry Whitecross
A-1 Dev This new version is very good, giving an interesting look into an under rated phone. Internal speeds are greater than expected given ratings on Amazon. Com. Looking forward to my review. We'll done. Worthy of a donation! Cheers!! The insistence upon /sd2/ path is erronious because the internal, undemountable flash for media is capable of testing, sorry, no longer useful. Uninstalled.
Raiden Dot
Asked me to rate You want me to rate? Here have -1- star for spamming. I'll rate when I feel like it. Also not okay with dumb ads on the bottom of the application.
Alien Family
Used to test cheapo Chinese sd cards one continues to work with the actual addressing. Tested some which were left in a phone during a factory reset and were destroyed. We bought 4 SD cards and 3 of them failed within a few days this software confirmed the failure but did not predict the failure.
Sukrit Gupta
Quite good The best thing is apart from testing speed of internal memory or memory card, it can also do tests for OTG pen drives & RAM.
Calvin Phillips III
People need to realize devices aren't equal... My 3 stars is for the lack of USB support. I have 4, and none will register they all fail on step two.
Rashid Mahatma
Excellent app! Easy to use, has options for fine tuning such as manufacturers name, type etc. Seems accurate and pretty much matches the results done with a pc.

Some begonias are grown for their uniquely shape leaves; others for flowers. Many work well as container plants and if you're looking for pretty border plants, for a formal flowerbed, begonia is a great choice. So, with all this versatility it's easy to understand why the National Garden Bureau named the Begonia the Flowering Annual for 2016.

The first domino has fallen for the eighth episode in the Star Wars franchise, as LucasFilm begins the year-long roll out for the upcoming blockbuster. Little is known about the follow up to The Force Awakens, aside from a beefed up role for Luke Skywalker, after his cameo appearance in the last installment. Director Rian Johnson (Looper) is at the helm of the much anticipated sequel and today the doors have begun to swing open indicating that Episode VIII is open for business.
There has always been a sense of mythological wonder in the titles to Star Wars films. As well as a fair share of behind-the-scenes stories about how they changed before the creators ultimately settled on the final names. Well, we are about to enter into a new chapter of Lucasfilm's history. Take a looksie…
It's official. STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI is the next chapter of the Skywalker saga. This December. #TheLastJedi https://t.co/ySkVwQcMTP pic.twitter.com/eHrPgbsRJq
— Star Wars (@starwars) January 23, 2017
Fans will have to wait no more, as Lucasfilm took to Twitter this morning and revealed the new title for the next movie. Star Wars: The Last Jedi is the title to this year's December release and it should immediately get fans' imaginations spinning.
While it seems like a simple title, it's laden with nuance and potential hidden meaning. The red font boldly stands out and is a telling color within Star Wars lore, most notably as the color of Darth Vader, Darth Maul, and Kylo Ren's lightsabers. It is undeniably, the color of the Sith and evil. This is a clear sign that this will be a darker chapter in the Star Wars saga.
The actual subtitle could refer to several different characters or story beats that may or may not be revealed this December. So let's dig into the different possibilities.
The Last Jedi is Luke Skywalker
This is the conclusion that the end of The Force Awakens points to, with the final scene revealing the saga's most legendary Jedi, Luke Skywalker. Mark Hamill's role has been beefed up in the sequel, with multiple reports claiming that the actor participates in action sequences in the movie.
Skywalker's absence cast a shadow over the plot of The Force Awakens, beginning with his disappearance being the first piece of information provided in the opening crawl. Clearly at least a sub-plot will explore his recent history, as well as his new potential position as Rey's teacher (and possibly father).
He was the titular "Jedi" in the Return of the Jedi, so it would make sense that this would be a continuation of his journey. The title also has precedent in film history, with flicks such as The Last Samurai, which would indicate that Luke is the last swordsman, before a new era is ushered in.
The Last Jedi is Rey
There are multiple theories behind Rey's lineage and most of them will be addressed in the upcoming sequel. However, whether her father is Luke or her grandfather is Obi-Wan Kenobi, it's clear that she will be training in the ways of The Force in the movie.
However, if she is truly the last Jedi, something has to happen to the second to last Jedi after Luke trains her. This would keep up with the theme established in A New Hope of the master training his padawan before becoming one with The Force in combat. However, with the death of Han Solo and the real-world passing of Carrie Fisher, it's unseen if the this will truly be the last movie for the trio of original trilogy characters. If so, what a bummer that would be.
Additionally, Lucasfilm made a point to introduce the title as "the next chapter in the Skywalker saga." Is that a giveaway of Rey's destiny and what's to come? We will find out soon.
The Last Jedi is Kylo Ren
Plot twist! (Which is a familiar notion to the Star Wars franchise.)
If you look at the history that was explained in The Force Awakens, Han and Leia's son Kylo Ren trained with Luke in his Jedi Academy. Then something sent Ren over the edge, which led him to corrupt – and/or possibly kill – Luke's students, before Luke went into hiding and Ren onto his path to the Dark Side.
The Star Wars universe stands on a foundation of legendary plot twists and character turns. Whether its Lando double crossing Han, or Anakin Skywalker's last heroic act, it wouldn't be Star Wars without those bold plot decisions.
In The Force Awakens, Ren was seen being conflicted by the good still in him. Kylo Ren is the most iconic Lucasfilm villain since Darth Maul, however an actor of Adam Driver's caliber isn't there for simple window dressing. Could there be a major change of heart in the next episode? Imagine how shocking it would be if Rey ended up on the Dark Side by the film's final act, with Kylo fighting to bring her back.
The Last Jedi(s)
Jedi is both a singular and plural word. The title could be hinting that Rey and Luke will join The Resistance and will fight side by side. Alternately, The Last Jedi could be in reference to a resurgence or hidden Jedi that will step into the light. Perhaps the duo will be joined by other Force sensitive characters that may or may not have already been revealed. (Maz Kanata? Finn? Ezra?) This could also leave the door open to introduce characters from other pockets of Star Wars fiction, such as Star Wars Rebels or the novelizations, who could potentially be Force sensitive.
Ultimately, we have eleven months until the meaning behind the catchy title is revealed. However, it's the official beginning of the marketing campaign that may result in stills from the production, or even a teaser trailer in the coming weeks. If you are a Star Wars fanatic, it's now your time. Get ready for the coverage of The Last Jedi to kick into warp speed!
Star Wars: The Last Jedi opens on December 15th, 2017.

Check out this month's live performance of original ditty "Melancholy" — a duet featuring Marling, with whom they've toured alongside — above.

The first time I found out I was pregnant was September 10, 2011. I was on a business trip to Toronto for work and I bought a charming digital French pregnancy test that pronounced me both pregnant and "enceinte." My husband and I were simultaneously excited and terrified. We told our parents and our siblings but nobody else.
I worried. I felt pretty much fine, a little more tired than usual. Weeks passed until finally I was 10 weeks and change, and the midwives I saw said they'd be able to hear the heartbeat on the Doppler.
They tried. They couldn't. They sent me downstairs for an ultrasound with a cold, unsympathetic technician who refused to tell me anything that was going on. I became increasingly more panicked because hello, there was no kicking, squirming, heart-beating little jellybean on the screen. Everything was still.
I went back upstairs and they told me the baby was gone. Or, more accurately — that there never really was a baby. I had what was called a blighted ovum — my body basically grew an empty sac.
I grieved. I took the week off work and waited for the inevitable to happen. On Halloween night, it did. And it was horrific. I landed in the ER, admitted to the hospital and had to have a D&C. Needless to say, it was pretty terrible.
I am four years removed from that experience now. I have two wonderful children. It still stings. And when I try to put my finger on the why, it's because I was not allowed to grieve.
Look, when a family member or a friend dies — the community rallies around you. People bring you casseroles, and flowers, and treat you gently for awhile. Expectations are lowered. You are loved on and comforted.
But when you have a miscarriage, in hushed tones, people remark, "well, good thing nobody knew about it, so you don't have to un-tell people!" and expect you to jump back into life, pretending everything is fine. I went back to work shortly after that traumatic experience and told concerned co-workers I'd had to have "a procedure." Most people had no idea what I was going through. And that right there was what made having a miscarriage so hard.
So here I am, shouting from the rooftops: I had a miscarriage. It wasn't my fault, and it's not your fault, either. There's nothing to be ashamed of, and you deserve peace and to be treated kindly.
Break the silence. You are not alone.
On this Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day, we acknowledge the grief, often silent, that so many of us mamas have lived through. As mothers, we want to help memorialize these precious children that, though their time was short, still touched our lives and forever changed our hearts. We invite you to add your baby's name to our "Forever Loved" remembrance wall as a reminder that his or her life mattered and that you are supported in your grief by a community of moms who understand.

What is in This Collection?
This collection includes digital images of probate records created by local courts throughout New Zealand for the years 1843-1998. The records were filmed at the New Zealand Archives, and images are being published as they become available. Although the index will contain entries up through 1998, the images for probates issued during the past 50 years are unavailable for viewing.
Wills and probate records were kept by each state in Australia, beginning in the 1800s. Anyone of legal age and sound mind, who owned property (real or personal) in New Zealand, had the right to leave a will. An individual who left a will is said to have died "testate." Someone who did not leave a will, or a valid will, died "intestate."
Probate records are court records that describe the distribution of a person's estate after he or she dies. The probate process began with a testator executing a will, followed by witnesses attesting and subscribing the will. After the death of a testator, the will was probated by the executor, usually at the court nearest the deceased's place of residence. Since a will was the only record necessary for the transfer of property and belongings to family and close friends, disagreements often occurred. To solve such disagreements, all those involved instigated a probate. The records in this collection represent the eventual conclusions of those probate hearings. Even though probate records were not created for every person who died, they are very helpful for research because civil authorities began recording probate actions earlier than they recorded birth and death records.
To learn more about the probate records, the article New Zealand Probate Records has an expanded description of the records.

What Do I Do Next?
I Found the Person I Was Looking For, What Now?
- Make sure to fully transcribe and cite the record entry for future reference. See below for assistance in citing this collection. Save or print a copy of the image if possible
- Identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives mentioned in the record. While family members often appear in probate records, these records may omit the names of deceased family members or those who have previously received an inheritance. Also remember that the spouse mentioned in a will may not be the parent of the children mentioned, or relationships noted in the will may not have the same meaning as they do today
- Use the residence to search for other records in that location
- Use the death date and estimated age to approximate a birth date
I Can't Find the Person I'm Looking For, What Now?
- When looking for a person with a common name, look at all the entries for the name before deciding which individual is correct. Use other information, such as place of birth, age, occupation, or names of family members, to determine which candidate is the correct person. If listed, a personal title may be a clue to property ownership or occupation, either of which might be noted in other records
- Check for variants of given names, surnames, and place names. Transcription errors could occur in any handwritten record; also, it was not uncommon for an individual be listed under a nickname or an abbreviation of their name, especially in church records. See Abbreviations Found in Genealogy Records for examples of common abbreviations. Note that some women reverted to their maiden name when their husband died, and therefore could have probate records under their maiden name
- Vary the search terms. For example, search by either the given name or surname to return broader list of possible candidates which can then be examined for matches
- Look at the actual image of the record to verify the information found in the online description, if possible

We about to bring this from the A-T-L to the S-T-L baby (Beatsta music)
{Ay Jibbs, watch this! Watch this shorty!} What up Fabo~!
Cause she do it with no hands, do it with no hands
[Chorus: Fabo]
Girl smile, take a picture if you can (OHH!)
Girl smile, take a picture if you can (OHH!)
Girl smile, take a picture if you can (OHH!)
Girl smile, take a picture if you can (OHH! OHH! OHH!)
Oh snap she done posed for me
That flash run off and she did it on her toes for me
Put on a whole show for me
Like boom boom snap, boom boom snap
To my boom boom clap, boom boom (OHH!)
Fabo told her shake that "Laffy Taffy" and she did exactly
What they do in Georgia, so I brought her across the border
Cause she say she never saw that ARCH befo'
So I showed her how to pose with that six point oh
Yeah that's that new dance
That new dance, that'll make your whole crew dance
And the funny thing about it, she don't even have to move jam
Just jump left, jump right, show that moment
When you boom boom snap in that Kodak moment
[Chorus] - 2X
She got a smile like a bowlin ball; go crazy when she see that flash
Lights camera action I hear Mystikal when she "Shake it Fast"
I've seen things I ain't never seen with her
I'm Richie Rich, Professor Keenbean gave me her
Violent thoughts in my mind, I'm losin control
She from heaven I'm from Bankhead, OHH! God's blessed me
First time I seen her she was dancin off a Nelly song
Smiled at me right then, I was in the zone
Go up in my station, I'll show you big dipper
Stop, two dollar stop, Fabo show her big zipper OHH!
Girl smile, take a picture if you can

[Chorus] - 2X
Aiyyo.. I was chillin wit my boy Fabo

Jump to the left, jump to the, jump to jump to
Jump to the right, jump to the, jump to jump to
Take a picture turn around, bump your shoulders up and down
Girl get up in that stance, you can do it with no hands
Pose like a model cause you're so so cute
Then make your body move like you in a photo shoot
[Chorus] - 2X
AY! {*repeat to fade*}

For a long time, the Flash comic was famous for covers/stories like this, very meta sort of stuff. It was a big influence on a lot of today's comic book creators, and it definitely lodged in my brain as a kid. And warped me appropriately.
Imagine you're looking at this on a newsstand. How could you not buy it?
I think what I like most is the challenge to the reader to face "the terrible secret of this book."

November 27 at 2:00 AM
While I was writing the post below, Kulas suddenly became agitated and then nilugapa and now naghihingalo. I have to wake up my mom, mom said he will not survive the morning. I woke up my brother. My sister at work, Papa at the province. I called Titus to come back to our house.
Luoy kaayo ron ga hingalo. I wish if mamatay na sya, diritso na not this suffering.
We've asked him to go na, I wish he will go now.
Post ready for posting 1:30ish AM but was not published as kulas condition worsen and we have to attend to him.
For quite some time now, I really feel that my birthday this year will be awesome and that something wonderful, something special will happen since well its triple 12 for this year, only a few can claim their birthday fall on auspicious date.
I think 12/12/12 is auspicious, I maybe the only person who thinks that way. Lol.
Months before my birthday, great things have been happening for me and for Penfires and I am so Thankful for all the blessings and for all persons who have made the road to my birthday so special.
From my Christmas post last year I quote "2012 will also be extra special for me as my birthday will fall on triple 12 – I feel the date hold so much promise for me –"
Yesterday, I just realized what will make my birthday the most special it can be. It's to see our family dog Kulas get well.
It's really painful for everyone in our household to see Kulas suffering much, and having that uncontrolled excessive drooling not to mention the twitching of his face and left hind leg. It's heartbreaking.
He is three years old and a little spoiled, senorito na dog, bading, autistic, clingy, demanding, special and more. Kenneth and Nicko take pics of kulas every now and then, that's how my camera Spunky got busted I think – from all the clicking there and clicking here. Between my siblings and me, we probably got close to 1 GB of images of our pet dog, which is not to count all the pics I've already deleted to save space heh. This prompted my good friend Doi to suggest I make a blog or at least a facebook page for our dear kulas.
Now if you think kulas is one of those expensive breed dogs with complete papers and all, you are wrong. Kulas is an askal, asong kalye, a Pinoy aspen, a street dog, a normal ordinary dog, but there is probably an ounce of Labrador blood in him which makes him tower over the regular askal. Those who don't know him, usually stay away from him because he is big. But he does no harm except he loves smelling/checking behinds of anything, male, female, dogs etc for some reasons.
Titus said kulas has all of us trained to do his bidding, not the other way around. I highly suspect Titus is right. He also calls him kid lightning because our dog can really ran fast like a flash. He needs to because for all his bravado, he is a bit of a coward. He only "shows" fighting form when someone put him on his leash and has his back so to say. If he is alone on the street, he will stay away from the other 'siga' dogs. But if someone is with him, expect him to loudly bark and snarl and tries to get free. But the moment you act like you would rather head home than watch him fight and he sees you doing it, he will beat you to the door. He will run home.
Our previous dog Kenji, who died at 9 years old, was not allowed inside the house. But kulas is a mainstay in our sala. Almost every time I go to bed, he follows me, put his head between my bed and the table and then turns around, sits down, he wants his regular massage. He won't go out of the room until you massage him. And his water? Mineral water, and it must be cold straight from the refrigerator otherwise he will not touch the stale water on his water bowl. He will wait for you to get some cold water. His saving grace is his exuberant greeting whenever Kenneth or anyone arrives, he welcomes joyfully.
But he also demands 'tax' without fail. If he sees any of us eat chips, biscuits or whathaveyous, more than likely he will also ask for some, and of course he gets what he wants. With all of us giving him a share, he probably has the biggest chunk of whatever it is that we eat. Probably half of what he asks for is not good for a dog like him but still he eats what we eat most of the time. And darn he can really eat fast! Before you are finish with your oreo, he is demanding his second biscuit. He likes cheese, chicken, anything Jollibee and more.
He doesn't know any trick except "eat" and "lie down". He is asleep 22 hours of everyday. That's a bit of exaggeration there hehe but he sleeps a lot when we are just at our house. He is a character, no doubt. He is also a narcissa per my sister, they always have pictorials and he knows how to project for that awesome pose.
Hoping for improvement
I am looking at him right now, him trying to sleep but can't because of all the twitching and drooling every now and then. He looks tired and worn out. 🙁 But the good news is yesterday and today he ate, he was not eating at all for almost 2 weeks and have already lose so much weight even though mom bought and cooked his favorite foods. But thank goodness his appetite is better today. I just hope he drinks more water now too as he needs to be hydrated at all times.
Yesterday was tough, we noticed his excessive drooling and when before it was only his hind leg that twitches, his face now twitches. We called the vet who injects him but was not right away available and all of us were really worried that I've decided to bring him to a different vet.
He is fighting what the vet suspects as canine distemper. His CBC turned out normal, he also does not appear to have cough nor cold. But all his symptoms speak of this illness. The sad thing is that there is no 'correct meds' for what he have, what the vet can prescribed are only supportive medicines as the illness is caused by a virus.
I have researched on this highly infectious disease among canines and the info is discouraging. Dogs infected with this virus have a 50 – 50 chance of making it. And even if the dog survives this bout, the twitching may remain for the rest of his life. I'll take that rather than what the vet said in worst case scenario. The doctors advised that if the condition worsens, a good option to consider is euthanasia.
That is not an option.
Protect your pet
During the day, kulas stays in the house. At night he can freely roam in the neighborhood. I think I am partly at fault with what happened to him, my father doesn't want kulas roaming around but I always stand my ground and argues to free kulas. I can't stand him on a leash; it's like prison, constricting and all that.
Today my uncle dropped by our house to give something to kulas. Our dog is a favorite of everybody until he makes a mess of something which is often. Anyhow, he saw the condition kulas was in. He said several days ago, someone from out of our neighborhood threw a dead dog in one of the vacant lot nearby. Two of the neighborhood dogs are now dead. Those dogs were friends of kulas and we think our dog caught the virus from those two.
The owner of the dead dog should have disposed of the dog properly by calling authorities or at least bury the dog. I have no doubt in my mind that that dog died because of sickness. Because of that irresponsible jerk, our neighborhood dogs are now under threat of this highly fatal disease.
The lesson here is to keep your dog at your house or on a leash especially if the other dogs are not vaccinated. Canine distemper is on the rise and has become an all year round disease, according to the vet.
Let this be and may this be my birthday gift
Seeing kulas so down and so different from his usual jolly self, it tugs at the heart. We all love kulas faults and all. We wish he will live for many years still. He can't die because of this disease.
This afternoon my aunt came by and saw kulas and she said that their pet hanover shows the same symptoms that kulas is now showing. After getting supportive meds, hanover is now okay, lively again but there is still the twitching even though more than 6 months have passed since hanover battled it out with the virus.
We are doing what we can, giving him tender loving care. We are trying our best to help alleviate his pain no matter how little the effect of 'our help' is to what he is feeling and battling now.
I hope kulasisi will be able to survive this. I know he will. He will be well; this is the special birthday gift that I hope and pray for.
Before I could published the post, all of a sudden, kulas was taken over by the disease. I am ending this post hearing his labored breathing, his cries of pain. I have no strength, we are all devastated. I wish for him to go now. God take him now please. God please take him now. Please, please please.
November 27 at 7 AM
Kulas breathing has become shallow, but this is better than his agonizing pain. I have asked mom to call the vet to bring meds for pain and meds to take him down. He was still suffering. While waiting for the vet, I went to my room to try to sleep, Titus has been urging me to catch some sleep since 3 AM but I can't. I took out my journal and wrote the words below, accepting his faith and urging him to let go. After a minute of closing my journal, I heard Titus called out for mom to check since kulas is no longer breathing. I went out of our room and saw him there lifeless, but not in pain. It is better, it is for the best.
As much as we want to hold on to you kulas,
We have to let you go and say goodbye.
You don't have to suffer anymore.
Be well wherever you are going.
Godspeed Kulasisi our one of a kind dog.
I wish we can save you but seeing you so much in pain is no good.
You have to go now. Let go now.
We love you our dear kulas.
Hugsss a million times.

Are you in a legal jam? Find a Lawyer, Bail Bondsman or Private Investigator on JammedUp.
Authorities in New York have arrested two men, who were busted using a labrador retriever as a drug mule to smuggle over a million dollars of heroin at JFK Airport.
Law enforcement officials say 35-year-old Bronx native, Samuel Seabrooks, and 27-year-old Carlos Betancourt-Morales, of Carmel, NY, have been charged with drug possession and conspiracy after over 22 pounds of heroin were discovered hidden on the bottom of a dog crate, which had an Avi Labrador that had been sent from Puerto Rico to New York.
Investigators said that the drugs had an estimated street value of more than $1 million, ABC7 reported.
"That man's best friend was used to smuggle drugs into the city, but police work led to the seizure of more than 10 kilograms of heroin concealed within the crate," Queens District Attorney Richard Brown stated. "The defendants are alleged to have conspired to bring drugs to New York City and elsewhere."
The charges indicated that Seabrooks and Betancourt-Morales met at a Bronx IHOP restaurant at approximately 6 p.m. last week and then drove in separate cars to the American Airlines Priority Parcel Services at JFK.
After they had arrived at the airport at roughly 7:00 p.m., it is believed that Betancourt-Morales got out of his car and went up to Seabrook's vehicle, and the two men had a short conversation. Soon after, Betancourt-Morales entered the building and signed an American Airlines cargo air receipt that gave him the authorization to take a crate containing an Avi Labrador dog which weighed 86 pounds.
Betancourt-Morales was stopped by authorities as he was pushing the crate on a rolling cart.
A court-authorized search warrant was carried out on the box, and police found ten packages in brick form wrapped in dark and clear plastic wrap.

Liam Neeson Takes The Graveyard Shift
Based on Lawrence Block's bestselling series of mystery novels, A Walk among the Tombstones stars Liam Neeson as Matt Scudder, an ex-NYPD cop who now works as an unlicensed private investigator operating just outside the law. When Scudder reluctantly agrees to help a heroin trafficker (Dan Stevens) hunt down the men who kidnapped and then brutally murdered his wife, the PI learns that this is not the first time these men have committed this sort of twisted crime…nor will it be the last. Blurring the lines between right and wrong, Scudder races to track the deviants through the backstreets of New York City before they kill again.
Heed Says:
A masterfully woven tapestry of thriller, mystery, action and drama. The casting of A Walk Among The Tombstones was as much a work of art as the cinematography. The director ensured that the story was told from each and every element that comprises the making of a impactful film.
Written and directed by Scott Frank (The Lookout), A Walk among the Tombstones is produced by Jersey Films' Danny DeVito, Double Feature Films' Michael Shamberg and Stacey Sher, Exclusive Media's Tobin Armbrust and Cross Creek Pictures' Brian Oliver. Universal will distribute the film in North America.Genre: Thriller Cast: Liam Neeson, Dan Stevens, David Harbour, Boyd Holbrook Written for the Screen and Directed by: Scott Frank Based on the Novel by: Lawrence Block Produced by: Danny DeVito, Michael Shamberg, Stacey Sher,Tobin Armbrust, Brian Oliver Executive Producers: Kerry Orent, Adi Shankar, Tracy Krohn, John Hyde, Nigel Sinclair, Guy East

The 11 Chicest Horror Movies of All Time
There is no shortage of inspired sartorial moments in horror. From The Birds to Carrie, A Clockwork Orange to An American Werewolf in London, villains and femme fatales alike abound, routinely festooned in the most iconic of costumes. There is Gregory Peck's restrained elegance in the 1976 classic The Omen; the Overlook Hotel's Gatsby-era partygoers in The Shining; Bette Davis and Joan Crawford's dilapidated glamour in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?; the entire library of 1960s Italian gore... With so many contenders to choose from, which fright films are topping our bill for most enviable sense of style? Keep scrolling to find out.
Grace Kelly breezes into Jimmy Stewart's bachelor pad just after he's described her as, "too perfect, too beautiful, too talented, too sophisticated, too everything but what I want." She lives up to the hype and then some, christening her arrival with takeout from fictional upscale New York eatery 21. Wine bucket and waiter in tow, she holes up for a night in with photographer boyfriend, L.B. Jeffries (Stewart), to discover he's entirely preoccupied with spying on his neighbors. The underlying arc of the film follows Stewart's character's paranoia as he comes to grips with his own fear of commitment—set against the backdrop of a voyeuristic murder, of course.
Rear Window (Blu-ray) ($10)

The neo-noir mystery written and directed by David Lynch may not fall squarely into the category of horror, but it's eerie enough to make our cut. Porcelain-skinned bombshell Isabella Rosellini smolders, crooning at nightclubs, and getting mixed up with all the wrong thugs. Laura Dern's youthful naïveté serves as foil to the femme fatale. All angora sweaters and breezy pastels, her feminine charm steals the show with its sleek and dewey romanticism.
Blue Velvet (Blu-ray) ($15)
Blue Velvet (Blu-ray) ($15)
Directed by Tony Scott and starring David Bowie, Catherine Deneuve, and Susan Sarandon, this erotic triller follows a love triangle between a doctor specializing in aging research and a modern vampire couple. Bowie and Deneuve as immortal lovers—need we go on? As a vampire companion bent on securing eternal youth alongside his immortality, Bowie is a natural. His chiseled cheekbones and androgynous sex appeal feel sublime and otherworldly in any age.
The Hunger (Blu-ray) ($18)
The Hunger (Blu-ray) ($18)
Mia Farrow's iconic pixie cut shall live on in the annals of horror-fashion lore for eternity. As an unassuming New Yorker who unwittingly gives birth to what may or may not be the anti-Christ, Farrow's waifish allure and mod wardrobe remain fantastically in vogue through even the most unsettling of encounters with the occult. The film itself is equally stylish and masterfully paced.
Ah, Tilda. She can do no wrong. Jim Jarmusch's vampire love story casts Swinton and the babe-ly Tom Hiddleston as vampire lovers in this timely modern romance. What occurs therein is the paradigm of horror chic. A depressed musician reunited with his immortal beloved, Hiddleston sizzles next to Swinton. It's the rare breed of grandiose melancholia that will make you want to read Proust in a smoking jacket for centuries on end. They might be the most wildly cool dangerous liaisons of any lifetime.
Well before Pharrell was decked out in Vivienne Westwood millinery, Kurt Russell was ensconced in an ice palace with fantastically covetable accessories. John Carpenter's The Thing is a slow burn, building to a Hitchcockian crescendo of a finale after one tense ride. As far as sci-fi horror goes, it doesn't get any better than a remote arctic tundra setting wherein Russell saves the day. In fact, we're here to suggest he may just best Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween for the title of most ultimate horror movie babe ever.
The Thing (Blu-ray) ($7)
The Thing (Blu-ray) ($7)
Written and directed by Ana Lily Amirpour, this cool-as-hell flick follows a lonesome female vampire as she navigates the streets of the fictional Iranian ghost town, Bad City. Romantic, thoroughly modern, and culturally resonant, it is a deeply sophisticated debut from a promising female filmmaker. Amirpour's directorial prowess has a spaghetti western influence: The drama unfolds in a stark town as eerie and shrouded in mystery as the story's heroine.
Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, Bram Stroker's Dracula gives us the gift of Gary Oldman in head-to-toe gray monochrome. The 1992 adaptation of the literary classic is delightfully dripping in macabre costumery. We also get Winona Ryder as the object of his misguided immortal affection, in a parade of Victorian taffeta and tiny hats. With Coppola's sweeping cinematography, we're loving this one for background ambience at our next party.
Bret Easton Ellis's sardonic novel takes a bite out of Wall Street culture, trailing in its wake all the yuppie greed of late-eighties New York. The film adaptation sees Christian Bale, Chloë Sevigny, Jared Leto, and Reese Witherspoon decked to the gills in pristine and polished ensembles. Sevigny slays in blonde-on-blonde muted tones, cementing her it-girl status in our hearts both on and off screen. A Manhattan businessman moonlighting as a serial killer, Bale's Patrick Bateman is chiseled, hunky, and unhinged, whether making reservations at Dorsia, powering through a formidable morning skin routine, or casually yielding a chainsaw.
Crimson Peak, the latest offering from masterful filmmaker Guillermo del Toro, is a gothic Victorian romp through a haunted mansion filled with things that go bump in the night—and killer clothes. Ethereal beauties Jessica Chastain and Mia Wasikowska traverse the spooky halls with billowy sleeves and drapery worthy of a couture catwalk. Del Toro's 2006 fantasy, Pan's Labyrinth, is equally stylized and brilliant. As a world-builder, the Mexican screenwriter, producer, and novelist certainly ranks among the most refined visual storytellers of our time.
A bouffant buoyed by electricity, white satin full-length gloves, and a cape dress deserving of Tom Ford's dreams are just a few trappings of this classic horror mainstay. Every fashion girl worth her salt will gleefully rally behind a fellow risk-taker who's not afraid of a signature look. Frankenstein's betrothed is living it up in head-to-toe alabaster in a dim and musty castle. What could possibly be more chic than eschewing practicality for a bit of high-drama style?
It's not technically horror. We know. Nevertheless, A Perfect Murder, the 1998 remake of Alfred Hitchcock's classic Dial M for Murder, is irresistible. Gwyneth Paltrow's Chanel vamp pout sees the quintessential '90s glamour girl through multiple bleach-blonde haircuts as the discontented New York socialite wife of Michael Douglas's character. Clad in the deep-crimson hue so signature and beloved at the time, Paltrow reprises Grace Kelly's staring role. Whether she's lending ingenue sex appeal to cable-knit sweaters or rolling around in the sheets with a young Viggo Mortensen, the always immaculate GP is a sight to behold.
