Hi, I'll try to list my observations as bullet points to make it clearer:
1) The banner at the very top is slightly cluttered and confusing, in particular the grid of icons which don't actually link to anywhere.
2) The blue banner below that is slightly wasted space, IMO - you could easily move your menu items into there
3) Again, lots of wasted white space just below that
1) It'd be nice to have some clear differentiation between apps, even a horizontal rule between apps could be a nice touch
2) The word 'details' under each title is superflous
3) A link to each app would be really useful
4) Maybe include a screenshot of each app?
A final observation would be it'd be nice to have categories maybe for the apps, and maybe also a mobile version since people will be using the site from their phones :)
Has potential though, good luck with the site!
The wireframe is rather boring. Make it at least 3 rows with nice headlines and images and it will look interesting.
Atm all i see is a wall of text generally speaking.
Nice site, easy to read.
A link to apps it is a must, in my opinion.
Good luck with your site!
There only seem to be a few apps listed on the home page, and it's not clear where to go from there.
also, your titles don't stand out much. It would be good to separate each entry visually a little more clearly. The "Created on ..." subtitles stand out too much as well. I'd say make them smaller and perhaps italic ... or remove them altogether, as they don't add much at all.
This is not an easy to navigate site and is lacking on content. A site on the must have android apps I envision to have hundreds of apps and reviews all sub-catogorised in an easy to use navigation bar. As far as I could count there were only 5 apps you suggest and even then the information was lacking on pros/cons and without any general public reviews. Star rating is also a great thing you should integrate here. By here I mean on the front page of where the app is displayed.. I am aware that if you click through to "more" you have more information there but I feel a lot more information needs to go on the directing page.
Good to see that you're updating your blog regular basis. Over all nice website.
Seems like your site is basically just a blog. Maybe it would be a good idea to use a free blog engine like tumblr, which comes with a bunch of pre-built themes that you can tweak, but that look pretty out of the box.

Hi, Connor here.
I've just looked at your website.
I love the colours, they blend well toghether.
There is some great content on your website as well.
The banner is a bit big though, it could be smaller.
There is a lot of HTML5 Validation errors though, just go here: http://validator.w3.org/check?url=mu...droid-apps.net
It is a great website though.
You could add a star-rating system to posts like I have here: http://toytech.netii.net/posts/uncategorized/9_welcome
The website also needs to have easy to use navigation, which it lacks.
It's a great website though.
The banner or header image at the top fo the page is not very good quality and is pixilated and I don't quite understand the point of all the icons, they dont seem to be there for any particular reason.
On the main content section the main text body needs more of a margin / padding in relation to its container, for some reason it seems a little close. The font spacing is a looks a bit confusing, its hard to work out where one item starts and the other ends.
The date attribute on each post looks a little strange while its indented beneath the post title. The social media icons beneath each post are very spread out and they seem very numerous, they also need a bit of padding beneath them.
The newsletter within the sidebar's subscribe button seems to be overflowing its container and needs padding at the bottom.
Hi, I'll try to list my observations as bullet points to make it clearer:
Has potential though, good luck with the site!
I think the site is allright. But the content section seems a bit blah. Nothing stands out, and there is lots of icons. I would want to add some stars or something to show how popular an item is, use some icons and/or images, and break it up a little!
I'd be happy to offer you some feedback giokr.
Her are some general points:
1. The banner looks slightly out of place, and your logo looks unprofessional. It clogs my view of the site, and it's way too large + the "Must have android apps text looks medieval." and more like the work of a WYSIWYG program. I'm not trying to butcher your site, but this is something you will have to change.
2. You need to establish a directory. F.ex, if people are looking for facts about your firm, then they click "about us", if they wish to look at all the app reviews you're offering they should have a place to click so that they can see the list immediately. Like another user said "get yourself an easy to use navigation bar".
3. Make a box, draw lines between the content to clearly indicate a separation of articles. Now it's blurred and mixing up.
4. Be careful placing PPC commercials on a newly started website. Establish your site as a trusted source of information and then you can focus on maximizing profits.
5. The domain name is way too long..People will never write in the entire address, at least not out of memory. You should have a shorter and more catchy name, and it must not necessarily contain all of the words you listed. Through SEO and marketing you can accomplish a lot without having the most indicative name.
Hope this helps.

Now what? Where Dany Heatley and the Ottawa Senators are concerned, it's a good question.
Heatley did not waive his no-movement clause by 11:59 p.m. eastern time on July 1. The Senators, therefore, are responsible for making a $4 million bonus payment to Heatley and that expenditure cannot be transferred to another club should he be subsequently traded.
So while the Senators had a deal agreed to with the Edmonton Oilers that would have sent Andrew Cogliano, Dustin Penner and Ladislav Smid to Ottawa, that $4 million expenditure is now likely to alter what the Senators expect to give up or get in return for Heatley, who had requested a trade because he wasn't comfortable playing for Ottawa head coach Cory Clouston.
Sources close to the Senators say the decision on how to proceed now will ultimately fall to team owner Eugene Melnyk, who won't be happy having had to invest $4 million in a player who doesn't want to play on his team. Or that Heatley demanded a trade and then when he was offered one, he turned it down.
There are some practical ways to offset the $4 million. For example, if the Oilers were inclined to do it, the Senators could send additional players to Edmonton whose salaries come close to equaling $4 million. Jason Smith and Christoph Schubert, for example, are scheduled to make almost $3.5 million between them this season. If the Senators were inclined to include them and the Oilers were amenable to taking them, there are ways around the thorny financial issue.
But to even get to that point, the Senators would have to want to accommodate Heatley's trade request – that will now be Melnyk's call – and Heatley would still have to be agreeable to waive his no-movement clause and unless Heatley likes the destination, and thus far he hasn't shown a strong affinity for Edmonton, that may not happen either.
In other words, this whole thing is now in uncharted and turbulent waters.
Heatley was wooed by Edmonton Oiler ownership and management in Kelowna just hours before the Senators' self-imposed "deadline" but at the end of the day, literally, he just wasn't comfortable making a commitment at that time.
Might he change his mind about Edmonton in the days ahead? Only he knows that.
All he knows is that he wasn't prepared to work to the Senators' timeline on the trade and felt there may have been other options beyond Edmonton that could be explored as his new home.
The Senators, meanwhile, angrily counter that no other team in the NHL showed the interest that Edmonton did and now that the acquisition price is likely to be higher because of the Sens will feel the need to recoup some or all of the $4 million payout, there's even less of a chance of another team stepping up to the plate.
Both sides in this messy, nasty dispute, which is only going to get more bitter, believe they have some leverage. Maybe the only thing they could agree on at this point is that Heatley playing in Ottawa this season appears to be an untenable situation. The Senators' fans have branded Heatley public enemy No. 1. It would be very difficult for Heatley to go back into the Sens' dressing room and line up alongside his teammates after having demanded a trade. The Sens would suggest it would be beyond uncomfortable for Heatley to return to the team. Heatley could argue the same thing on the flip side, that the Senators could no more tolerate his presence in the lineup than he could.
So the prevailing thought is that, at some point, the Senators will have to cut their losses and perhaps make an inferior deal (to Edmonton's offer) that Heatley would find acceptable, just to rid themselves of their problem. That, though, presumes that the Senators' ownership and management are more concerned about practicality than revenge or making an example of Heatley.
Either way, it's likely to get ugly.
Heatley knows that and knew it when he made his decision and understands he's not going to win any popularity contests.
The Senators know they will likely have the support of the public and much of the hockey community, but that doesn't help them a bit in solving the problem of what to do with Heatley and how to dispose of him in a constructive fashion.
In many respects, this reminds one of the old-fashioned contract holdout battles that used to be commonplace in the pre-lockout NHL, where a player would often sit out a good part or all of one season to back his demands. Heatley, of course, is under contract but the dynamic of the player versus the club in what both now perceive to be a battle of principle – Heatley's right to exercise his no-movement clause as he sees fit versus the club's right to conduct its affairs as it sees fit. In those days, the player almost always won those protracted battles because the individual always seemed to have more willpower and stubbornness to stick to a position than the club.
Whether that proves true here remains to be seen, but one certainly gets the feeling we're going to find out.

Here's you chance to get a sneak peek of Bob Mould 's upcoming concert film, See a Little Light: A Celebration of the Music and Legacy of Bob Mould . The former Hüsker Dü frontman has released a video excerpt online of his performance of " Ice Cold Ice " with Foo Fighters lead singer Dave Grohl .
See a Little Light: A Celebration of the Music and Legacy of Bob Mould documents a tribute concert for Mould that took place on November 21, 2011 at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. It featured a number of artists performing songs from Mould's entire career, including Spoon 's Britt Daniel , Ryan Adams , Jessica Dobson of The Shins and Craig Finn and Tad Kubler of The Hold Steady , among others.
Mould recently launched a fundraising drive on Kickstarter.com , a website on which people can pledge money for creative projects, to raise money so he could release the show on DVD. The singer is currently about $10,000 shy of his proposed $95,000 budget, but it's not too late to help him meet the goal by Saturday's deadline. For a $40 pledge, you'll receive a digital and physical copy of the See a Little Light DVD and a specially-designed light bulb T-shirt. The incentives become greater the more you pledge, right on up to an autographed poster by all the event's performers and a personalized thank-you note from Mould himself.

Today I am traveling to Richmond where my sister and silly dog (pictured) live. My parents are flying in from Nebraska as well. I plan on gorging myself all weekend long because Richmond has good restaurants. I haven't really planned it out much beyond that, which feels great.
Side note, the unfortunate part about going to Richmond is that I have to get on an airplane. flying is bull shit. I guess it would be more accurate to say I hate airlines. The ever-present feeling that I'm about to be screwed over just doesn't vibe well with my general liking of a sense of control.

Originally built as a fort for the War of 1812 Castle Clinton has since served as an opera house (1840-1855), an immigration station (1855-1890) as well as an aquarium (1896-1941). It now serves as the starting point for a journey to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island with ferries departing to both locations from the Battery Park Promenade, just outside the monument. The Castle also features guided tours, an exhibit room displaying dioramas of Castle Clinton during three key periods in its history, the Eastern National Bookstore, and the annual 'Music at Castle Clinton' concert series.

Not too much to tell - I'm an amateur genealogy researcher and don't care to help out others with their research if I can. I'm retired and have some time available to do this. I believe that all burial grounds are sacred, and that each and every grave means something to someone.
I work mostly the western section of Washington County, TN and a bit of southern Unicoi County.
I've basically retired from work on F-A-G. It turned into a fruitless, endless, thankless grind. Way too many errors that I've not seemed to have much luck getting fixed. I continue to work locally and, if asked, I try to assist researchers. I work more on graveyard documenting and restoration. I appreciate those of you who sent thank you messages, I truly do - you account for about 10 percent of the requests that I processed. To the others, please think about your volunteers - they research the locations of the markers, often hike to family cemeteries thru brush and briars, we spend hours and dollars fulfilling requests - It is work and we take it seriously.

Dora Vaught
Charles Young is probably buried in the Pearson-Horton cem. Its called Buffalo Cem on the death cert.
So far I've got nothing on Carolyn Newman.
I do use ancestry.com very much. If you already have the death certs of everyone buried there on excel that would help me.

Native plants provide butterflies with nectar and foliage they need as caterpillars and adults.
Adult butterflies may accidentally mistake a non-native plant for a good egg-laying site, which could prevent the survival of its offspring. Grow you nectar-producing native plants in sunny areas that are protected from strong winds.
The plant type and color are important. Adult butterflies are attracted to red, yellow, orange, pink and purple blooms that are flat-topped or clustered and have short flower tubes. For example, monarchs are attracted to asclepias, which is a family of milkweed — a beautiful, brightly colored plant, and a magnet for butterflies.
Plant your garden for continuous bloom. Butterflies need nectar throughout the adult phase of their lifespan. Try to arrange the garden so that one plant stops blooming as another starts, like spring-blooming ceanothus and summer-blooming plumbago.
Trees can host butterfly larvae, too. Dogwood and flowering crabapple are great for butterfly larvae.
Butterflies also like a place for "puddling." They often congregate on wet sand and mud to partake in puddling, an act of drinking water and extracting minerals.
To create a butterfly puddle, place coarse sand in a shallow pan and then insert the pan in the soil of your habitat. Make sure to keep the sand moist. Step back and watch the magic happen.
As long as you have planted what butterflies love, your yard will be a beauty in motion.

A word from Yankee Pier Lafayette
Yankee Pier, a bustling and vibrant seafood house, offers chef Michael Dunn's ocean-fresh seafood "fresh from coast to coast". Local seafood, sourced in accord with the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch program, which promotes sustainable practices that are healthy for ocean wildlife and the environment, is presented with a nod toward New England. Live Maine lobsters, fresh-shucked oysters, an array of grilled fresh fish, and beer-battered full belly clams are some of the offerings, along with local produce, house-made desserts, a selection of all-American wines and a full bar.Continued

- Definitely a favoriteOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/29/2014Brought guests from out of the country and YP knocked it out of the park again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- EnjoyOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/28/2014We go back to Yankee Pier - Lafayette again and again. The menu is interesting, varied and delicious! The ambience is festive and fun!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Happy HourCT46VIPDined on 9/26/2014I love their happy hour. I've been going regularly for over a year. I have a couple margaritas and the clams/mussels from the Happy Hour menu (3-5pm). Very good and only $5 each. Julie is a great bartender.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Open late in LafayetteluvlafayetteVIPDined on 9/20/2014The food is AVERRAGE. But for $12.50 for calamary & $11 Clam Chowder appetizer soup I thought the place would be better than a Fast food chain...its not. But, it is open late. Servers were nice.Special Features:
- Lobster roll not greatRoseVIPDined on 9/13/2014I feel this place is a bit expensive and used to be a lot better. The clams were chewy and the lobster roll had no taste. I was so disappointed and so were the people I were with. I will try this place one more time and just hope it was a bad night.Special Features:
- I think I'm just not a big BO fanThrillhouseDined on 9/12/2014I've been to several of Bradley Ogden's restaurants. I know he's pretty critically acclaimed but I realize I just am not a big fan of his dishes and repertoire. I've been to Lark Creek Steak in SF, Lark Creek in WC, Parcel 104 and now Yankee Pier and aside from Lark Creek Steak, I haven't enjoyed any of my meals at any of the aforementioned restaurants. At Yankee Pier, it felt like they were going for the New England vibe and they did a good job, it feels like Legal Sea Foods in Boston. But the vibe and ambience is where the comparisons stop. The pasta dish I ordered was bland and really needed quite a bit of salt to even make it palpable. My friends Lobster roll was extremely skimpy with the lobster. The fish in the fish and chips was dry.Special Features:
- Great for a special family dinnerjustareviewDined on 9/6/2014We had a fabulous birthday dinner here with grandma and our thread kids. The menu is incredible. Lots of favorites done with care and great quality. The seafood is fresh and has amazing flavor.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Outstanding Seafood!MickyandMelanieDined on 8/18/2014We were celebrating our 30th anniversary and it could not have been a more perfect evening! From the outstanding clam chowder, to the wild salmon and huge lobster..to the frozen soufflé for dessert... The buttery TestaRosa Chardonnay was not too shabby either! Our server Peggy and the manager were very attentive but not over bearing...all in all I can't wait to return!!Special Features:
- Good Lunch SpotMEdiningVIPDined on 8/18/2014Enjoyable luncheon dining with excellent service. Prompt, friendly and efficient, yet no rush if you wish to linger. Excellent coho salmon!Special Features:
- Our go to place in LafayettednimuraDined on 8/16/2014This is our go to place in Lafayette. Always fresh seafood, perfectly prepared with great service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nov2013Dined on 8/16/2014We have been to Yankee Pier several times and enjoyed the choices, preparation, and staff each time. This time we took guests from out of the state. We sat outside for the first time. The setting was excellent as the sun [early evening] was blocked by the adjacent buildings, and light breeze made the setting delightful. Our wait staff was congenial and attentive, but not overly-so. The selected menu choices were each prepared so that each was memorable....excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/15/2014Very pleasant atmosphere. Attentive service. Good mix of patrons. Food was well prepared and nicely presented.Special Features:
- Awesome soft shell crab!luvfishDined on 8/8/2014We went last week and got a last minute reservation for 2. We got there early, were sat right away, and enjoyed exceptional service and outstanding cuisine!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bithday DisappointmentLocalsDined on 8/8/2014We were seated in the outdoor patio....at a great table. We were welcomed in a friendly manner. We were a party of 5 celebrating a birthday. Service was relaxed. However, the food was marginal. The fish/chips were just okay, french fries were cold, cole slaw was soggy. The blackened fish was like shoe leather....obviously overcooked. Rockfish sandwiches were good and guests were happy with their choices. We had brought cupcakes to celebrate and were told that there was a $15.00 "cake charge". Stunned, we did not make a fuss. (Lark Creek Inn was very gracious when we had cupcakes several months ago.....same parent company, inconsistant policies). This type of extra charge is unreasonable and excessive. I will not be back.Special Features:
- always reliablefarmgirlDined on 8/2/2014I had the salmon sandwich with a glass of rose from the special salmon and rose menu. Both were excellent and so good together.Special Features:
- Great SeafoodEBFoodieVIPDined on 7/30/2014This restaurant has wonderfully prepared seafood.

- Attractive seafood restaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/19/2014The mussels in a tasty broth were very good. The ceviche was good as were the fish tacos. The butterscotch pudding was the best we've ever had. The oudoor dining area was attractive an pleasant. Our waitress was very attentive and personal. We'll definitely be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BondVIPDined on 7/18/2014I always come out feeling that it costs too much for what you get.
- I think of Yankee Pier for Seafoodluvflavor2Dined on 7/17/2014I think of Yankee Pier when I think of seafood and am always delighted with the choices available. The choices are authentic, yet current in flavor. Thank you! for your attention to detail.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- You will love this place.HorsePowerDined on 7/15/2014If there were more stars to give Yankee Pier, I'd do it. This is a perfect restaurant. Everyone who works there treats you like friends and family. Service is impeccable. The food is superb. The drinks are creative and delicious. The nautical-theme decor (including charts on the table tops) is fun and entertaining. My friend and I had dinner there a couple of nights ago; we go there whenever she's in town, usually two-three times a year. Our server was Sean, and he was exceptional: seamlessly friendly, efficient, and helpful. The fish & chips is one of their signature dishes, and it's the best you'll ever taste. I had the bay scallops this time, and they were fantastic.Special Features:
- Always a Great ChoiceTravelgurudanvilleVIPDined on 7/12/2014With so many options, it's always a hard choice as to where to catch up with a friend over lunch. Yankee Pier always meets my requirements. Great seafood choices, notice level conducive to having a conversation without straining to hear, great service, fair pricing, and no rushing us to leave after we finish. A winner every time!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lucation - lunch vacationMy2centsDined on 7/11/2014The service was fantastic with good recommendations when requested. I was greeted by a friendly host who seated me quickly. Lunch felt like a little vacation.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 7/11/2014Good choices on menu--variety of choice, not just seafoodSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 7/6/2014When the weather is nice - outdoor dining is great! And half off wine in July is a treat!
- UnfriendlyOpenTable Diner Since 2004Dined on 7/4/2014We have dined here on a number of occasions and have concluded the hostess caters to certain patrons. Each visit, when there have been many seating options, the hostess has tried to seat us adjacent to the service areas or with the "lively" young family. We aren't sure of her reasoning, but due to the lack of a pleasant hello and consideration for everyone's dining experience, we'll be looking for a new seafood option.
- Excellent!BonbonDined on 6/29/2014Yankee Pier was outstanding! I'm disappointed with Open Table because I made a 1,000 points reservation and was awarded 100. I would like a refund of points.Special Features:
- BostongalDined on 6/27/2014We have eaten at YP many times and have never been disappointed. The food and service are always excellent. As a New Englander, we love the lobster rolls and clams.Special Features:
- Great spot!PaddyVIPDined on 6/26/2014We've eaten at Yankee Pier several times and it seems to get better every time. Great food and excellent service in a casual but elegant setting.Special Features:
- KandKDined on 6/26/2014Though we were running late due to traffic accident causing backup that day, hostess was very welcoming and accommodating. Server likewise was friendly and made our meal enjoyable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CelebratingClarkieDined on 6/24/2014We love coming to the Yankee Pier because their seafood is ALWAYS fresh and well prepared. Their raw bar is fantastic...we loved their Kumamoto And Fanny Bay oysters. My sole was fresh, tasty and simply prepared with a great sauce on the side...our friends had the fish Tacos and ate every bite.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just okayYellowroseVIPDined on 6/23/2014Not much that was outstanding and expensive for what you get.

KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- Governor Rick Snyder told a crowd at Kalamazoo Senior Services yesterday that Detroit's bankruptcy may be daunting and dealing with the legislature on Healthy Michigan has been difficult, but the toughest challenge he has faced in life was helping his aging parents deal with their last few years.
He had a dad who didn't want help, even if he needed it, and a mom who wanted to stay in her home but couldn't maintain the place on her own.
He made the comments as he saluted Senior Services on their 50th Anniversary. He says many of the challenges he faced are addressed by the services they provide.
They held a big celebration with tents and food, music and speeches at their facility on Jasper Street Wednesday afternoon.

COVINGTON — The Marathon gas station at the intersection of Ga. Highway 11 and U.S. Highway 278 was robbed Wednesday night, according to the Newton County Sheriff's Office.
NCSO Public Information Officer Deputy Cortney Morrison said the clerk and her boyfriend were at the store around 10:45 p.m., preparing to close when the armed robber entered the store.
"He jumped on the counter, brandishing a gun and told them to give all the money to him," Morrison said. "They emptied the register and once he got the money, he jumped off the counter and ran."
Morrison said the robber is described as a black male, approximately 5 feet, 10 inches tall, weighing about 160 pounds, wearing a long-sleeved black shirt, a black ski mask and gloves.
The clerk said he left on foot, but could provide no direction of travel. Morrison said a K-9 Unit from the Covington Police Department was called to the scene, but the track did not reveal any evidence.
There were no customers in the store at the time of the robbery.
Morrison asks that anyone with any information regarding this incident call the NCSO at 678-625-1400 or go to their website at www.newtonsheriffga.org and click on anonymous tips to leave information. All information will be treated confidentially.

That's a mighty big jump!!!! On top of that counter???? Come on.........
John 1 year, 1 month ago
Strange report from here - no one could indicate which way this robber went after taking all the cash - maybe all the out side & inside lights were turned off and the windows were fogged up on the inside from all this humidity we have had recently. Secondly, me thinks the canine from the K-9 unit must have a bad sniffer and needs to be retired from duty - the dog couldn't even pick up a sent trail from the store counter to the exit door - had a little female blue tick beagle like that once, she caught distemper & couldn't pick up a rabbit sent from 4" away - made a great house pet after that.

The bad news is that the Playstation 4 does not support external hard drives. The good news is that, like with the PS3, the internal hard drive is easily user-upgradeable. The really good news is that, like with the PS3, you can throw a solid state drive inside your Playstation 4.
As console gamers, we don't get many chances to upgrade our own hardware, which stings even more when we get robbed blind paying for proprietary Playstation Vita Memory Cards or Xbox 360 Hard Drives. We of course don't have hard numbers on what kind of performance increase we'll see by putting an SSD inside a PS4, but logic dictates that it can only help given the huge installs games are going to have, along with the quieter, cooler, more reliable performance only an SSD can provide.
Recommending a solid state drive is easy, because Samsung's only real competition is Samsung. You're choosing between the 840 Pro Series and the 840 EVO series, and while the Pro does beat out the EVO in some specs at some capacities, for the Playstation 4 I'm going to stick with the EVO and save some money. I did however spring for the 256GB 840 Pro for the rig I'm building. Update: Thanks to several commenters who pointed out the minimum HDD size for the PS4 is 160GB, so the 120GB EVO is not an option.
- Samsung 840 EVO 250GB | $175
- Samsung 840 EVO 500GB | $340
- Samsung 840 EVO 1TB | $596
If you want to spend as little money as possible, but are certain you really want 1TB of storage on your next Sony console, grab the 1TB Seagate Momentus Hybrid Drive for just a little over 100 bucks. SSD-like performance on a budget.

Date of News Release: 06/07/10
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- Preliminary statistics* indicate that eleven people died in nine separate crashes on Kentucky roadways from Tuesday, June 1, through Sunday, June 6, 2010.
Seven of the crashes involved motor vehicles and one victim was not wearing a seat belt. Single-fatality crashes occurred in Boone, Estill, Jefferson, Scott, Shelby and Woodford counties.

One pedestrian involved fatal crash occurred in Whitley County and involved the suspected use of alcohol.
Through June 6 preliminary statistics* indicate that 267 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2010. This is 68 less fatalities than reported for the same time period in 2009. There were 220 motor vehicle fatalities and 113 of those victims were not wearing seat belts. Thirty-four of those crashes involved a commercial motor vehicle. Twenty-five fatal crashes involved a pedestrian and 1 involved a scooter. Sixteen crashes involved a motorcycle and seven of those victims were not wearing helmets. Four crashes involved an ATV and three victims were not wearing helmets. A total of 64 fatalities have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas. Crash data for this report is generated from the Kentucky Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS).

An 80-year-old bridge in Orange County was given a safety upgrade a year after a fatal crash.
Merrill Davis died Oct. 14, 2012 when his car veered off a steep embankment beside the bridge on N.C. 751 in Duke Forest.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation installed guardrails leading up to the bridge in October.
"Once the Board of Transportation signed off on it at its
October meeting, it was decided to go ahead with it as soon as we had the
guardrails and a crew could be scheduled," DOT Spokesman Steve Abbott said.
Merrill Davis' mother, Tamela Davis, said guardrails might have stopped his
car from going over the bank, even though the level of alcohol in Davis' system was twice the legal limit, according to the North Carolina Highway Patrol.
"While none
of the improvements will bring my son back to me, it is my hope and prayer that
NCDOT will spare another family the unbelievable pain of another fatality by
replacing the 751 bridge," Tamela Davis said.
The DOT said the money will not be available to replace the bridge for at least 10 years.

At the 2012 Guild Association Annual Meeting and Luncheon Celebration, Peggy Habegger received the Anna Clise Award for Individual Achievement in honor of her tremendous leadership and volunteerism on behalf of Seattle Children's. During her acceptance speech, Habegger drew cheers from the crowd as she proudly stated, "My name is Peggy Habegger and I am Seattle Children's."
"Serving Children's is in my DNA," she says today. Her grandmother, Jane Joy, was a longtime guild member and friends with many of the hospital's founding trustees. Her mother, Gertrude Joy, also a guild member, helped establish the Children's calendar project.
As a young woman, Habegger was an active junior guild member. Through the years she has served as president of the Seattle Children's Hospital Board of Trustees, chaired the first Children's Miracle Network telethon, founded the Marion Blethen Mesdag Guild and even hosted Queen Elizabeth's 1983 visit to Children's.
Habegger and her late husband, Bob, also financially supported the hospital's Journey Program, which helps children and families as they grieve the loss of a loved one. When her husband retired from his career as a life insurance agent, they decided to donate their unneeded life insurance policies (originally intended as income-replacement policies) to the Journey Program.
"Over the years, I have seen so many families benefit from the support of the Journey Program and its director, Jackie Kite," says Habegger. "Having lost our daughter Ann at a young age, my husband and I appreciated the services of this program and decided to support it during our lifetime. We also made it a beneficiary of our estate."
The Habegger Family Journey Program Endowment will generate an ongoing source of income for the program, for an enduring, positive impact on families.
"Giving to the Journey Program was the perfect way to use our insurance policies," says Habegger. "Though I still feel the loss of my husband, it consoles me to know that the proceeds from his insurance policies are helping families in need of support."
For information on charitable bequests and life insurance gifts benefiting Children's, please call Lorraine del Prado at 206-987-4977 or Christina Lui at 206-987-6812.

New Gamma-O V2
The Safest and Most Effective Natural Testosterone Booster - Now Stronger and More Potent than Ever Before!
Introduced in 2004, the original Gamma-O instantly became an underground phenomenon. So much so that despite being 100% non-hormonal, friends, family, and fellow gym members couldn't help but question the "natural status" of Gamma-O users. And now, it's even STRONGER.
Introducing Gamma-O Version 2.0. Founded on the same breakthrough pro-testosterone technology, it's now loaded with even more potent, scientifically researched ingredients to achieve what was only a dream a few years ago - that is, massive testosterone production and superior hormonal optimization for greater strength and size.
Maximum Hormonal Optimization
Modulate estrogen, increase testosterone activators, and give your body the building blocks it needs to flood your veins with raw, unadulterated levels of bio-active testosterone. +
Build ROCK HARD Mass & Gripping POWER
Elevated testosterone helps improve recruitment of force generating motor units inside muscles, which can lead to greater strength and muscular hypertrophy. +
Annihilate FAT - Not Muscle
Fat burning stimulants can eat through muscle like there's no tomorrow. Now you can protect your hard earned muscle and safely peel off the layers - without the stims - using New Gamma-O V2 Natural Testosterone Booster. +
Hidden deep inside the molecular structure of Japanese rice bran is an extract called Gamma Oryzanol.
Rich in physiologically potent plant sterols and Ferulic Acid, Gamma Oryzanol is an all natural, non-hormonal compound with profound pro-testosterone capabilities. And when Gamma Oryzanol enters the blood stream, something incredible happens...
It significantly increases testosterone production by increasing the body's key testosterone activator - Luteinizing Hormone. But there's a catch. Powdered Gamma Oryzanol is not easily absorbed by the human body. It must first be transformed into a rich liquid emulsion which is accomplished only by using state-of-the-art Liquid Emulsion Technology™. And near perfect absorption rate is achieved!
Meet Version 2.0!
True Innovation brings it ALL Together
The original Gamma-O changed the underground bodybuilding landscape forever. Yet when new breakthroughs in testosterone and hormonal optimization are discovered...breakthroughs that can help increase size, power, and performance...then it's time revolutionize all over again! Take a look at the exciting new ingredients found inside NEW Gamma-O Version 2.0!
Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C): Despite popular belief, estrogen isn't "evil." Yes, too much can lower testosterone, increase body fat, and lower sex drive. Yet men need estrogen to help build muscle and maintain a strong sexual drive. The key therefore isn't to obliterate estrogen, but to strategically modulate estrogen metabolism in your body.
You see, estrogen is metabolized through two pathways. One results in the formation 2-hydroxyestrone; the "good estrogen" due to its weak and low biological activity. The other creates 16-alpha-hydroxyestrone. This is the "bad," or rather..."nasty"...estrogen, as its biological activity is very strong.
That's why the new Gamma-O V2 contains Indole-3-Carbinol. As a potent modulator of estrogen metabolism, it can help improve body composition by altering the ratio in your favor. +
Vitamin D3 (as Cholecalciferol):Did you know researchers following 2,299 men discovered those with more Vitamin D3 in their blood had higher testosterone levels? Likewise, they found that men with less D3 had less testosterone1.
This is important because most men are deficient in Vitamin D3, which is largely obtained by exposure to the sun. That's why NEW Gamma-O V2 further supplies 3,000 anabolic IU's of pure Vitamin D3 every day to help support optimal testosterone production in the body. +
Maca Root Powder: Maca is renowned for it's adaptogenic benefits, which help the body better resist stress. Maca in particular is known to help balance and regulate the hormonal system, while simultaneously improving energy, endurance and sexual performance. This makes Maca a "must have" for anyone looking to pack on more size and power! +
Your Health & Safety is our #1 Concern
At Gamma Labs, we believe taking your size, strength and performance to the next level shouldn't require you to compromise health.
That's why Gamma-O V2 is a natural testosterone booster and contains clinically researched ingredients that help promote a healthy heart and maintain cholesterol already within normal range. In addition, it contains powerful antioxidants to help protect your cells from the damaging effects of free radicals. Last, Gamma-O V2 helps reduce body fat without the use of stimulants.
But our commitment to your health and safety goes beyond formulation. It extends into the lab, too. That's why every capsule of Gamma-O V2 is manufactured under strict cGMP guidelines in a NSF certified facility, guaranteeing unsurpassed quality control in every capsule.
Customer Satisfaction
From day one, customer satisfaction has been our top priority.
And because of that, we offer a 100% unconditional money back guarantee. If our customers don't believe the Gamma Labs product they are using are the most effective supplements they've ever taken, we refund their money - no questions asked. And we're proud to report that nearly every Gamma Labs customer has become a long time, loyal fan of Gamma Labs. Because at the end of the day, we understand it's not about us. It's about you, the athlete, the bodybuilder, the extreme sports enthusiast, the gamer.
F.A.Q. - Gamma-O
The Most Frequently Asked Questions for Gamma-O V2
Q: How often should I take Gamma-O V2?
A: Take 2 Liqui-Caps twice a day. Ideally you should take it the same time every day. For best results, take with food.
Q: When should I expect to see results?
A: Most people see results by the end of the first month. You will continue to feel added effects the longer you take it. All of our case studies had noticeable increases after 30, 60, and 90 days. After several months your body will have established a new base level.
Q: Because Gamma-O V2 increases testosterone, does it also cause "roid-rage"?
A: No, Gamma-O V2 increases your body's natural testosterone production. It is not synthetic testosterone, which can increase androgen levels thousands of times higher.
Q: If I stop taking Gamma-O V2, will I have the same negative effects as if I came off steroids?
A: No. Gamma-O V2 helps your body produce more of its own natural testosterone. Steroids are a synthetic substitute that cause your body to shut down testosterone production. When you stop using steroids, it takes some time for your body to start producing its own testosterone again. During this lapse, your hormone levels drop substantially. When you discontinue Gamma-O V2, your testosterone levels will slowly return to normal baseline values. Because this process is suggested to take anywhere from 2-3 weeks, there is no crash due to a sudden loss of androgens.
Q: I have seen Gamma Oryzanol in a powdered pill form. What is the difference between powdered Gamma Oryzanol and liquid emulsion Gamma Oryzanol?
A: This is a very good question because you will find many reports of powdered Gamma Oryzanol not working. Here's why, and it's a very important distinction to understand. Gamma Oryzanol in a dry powder form has a very low absorption rate. If the body cannot absorb the molecule, it simply won't work. And in powdered form, it doesn't work. However, our breakthrough Liquid Emulsion Technology™ has enabled us to develop a unique process of transforming the powder extract into a liquid emulsion. The liquid has over 200 times more surface area, allowing the Gamma Oryzanol to quickly and effectively enter the bloodstream. This enables users to experience the tremendous beneficial effects of enhanced natural testosterone production.
Q: Will Gamma-O V2 help boost my red blood cells?
A: None of our case studies specifically monitored RBC's. We do however believe your RBC's will increase because of the direct correlation between testosterone and RBC's. Additionally, our athletes noticed an increased pump during and after training, which suggests there is an increase in blood volume.
Q: I am currently taking other supplements and vitamins. Can I continue to use these supplements while taking Gamma-O V2?
A: Yes. Gamma-O V2 has no known adverse reactions when taken in conjunction with other supplements.
Q: Are there any side effects of Gamma-O V2 Natural Testosterone Booster?
A: No. Gamma-O has been proven safe and non-toxic. It is a rice bran extract that has been around for centuries.
Q: Do you guarantee your product?
A: Absolutely! This company was founded by athletes seeking a natural alternative to steroids and andro products. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied, we offer a money back guarantee.
Q: Does your product increase the bio-available testosterone or just the overall testosterone?
A: Both.
Q: Can you take Gamma O V2 on an empty stomach?
A: You can take Gamma O V2 on an empty stomach or with a meal. Studies show it is more effective when taken with food. You should try to take it at the same time every day (hence every 24 hours)
Q: How much does shipping cost in the United States?
A: We use standard USPS shipping rates for all our domestic and international packages. Most domestic packages shipped via USPS Standard Post mail cost between $6.00 and $9.99. We also offer FREE domestic shipping on all orders over $70! For exact pricing (based on your location), please enter your shipping information at step 1 of 2 during the checkout process and click "continue to next step".
Q: Do you ship internationally?
A: Yes we do! We are able to ship to all countries except for Norway and Germany. We offer one of the LOWEST INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING RATES out there. Our Standard International shipping costs $6.99 per lb and takes about a week to ten days for your package to arrive. We also offer $15 flat rate shipping on all international orders over $70!
*Please note, ALL postal items entering the UK (and any other European country) from outside EU may be assessed by Customs and incur a charge. Any package liable for import duty/and or tax, will incur a Royal Mail handling fee of £8 (or more).

Q: How come I can't track my international package?
A: We apologize for the inconvenience, but unfortunately we cannot provide international orders with any kind of tracking information. Gamma Labs has just recently switched shipping services from USPS to DHL and does not have the ability to get you this information at this time. All international orders will make it to their destinations no later than 7-14 business days after the time of pick up from our facilities.

Packages may be delayed when passing through a countries customs authority, based on local laws & taxes. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
Q: What is your return policy?
A: We accept returns on all unopened product. If the package is opened, the tub/box must contain at least 75% of the original product in order for us to refund your money. For a complete refund, please ship your package back to: Gamma Labs - 134 Bell Street, West Babylon NY 11704.
Please note: We cannot refund the original shipping costs of your package.

NASHVILLE (AP) - Oh, deer!
The Tennessee Highway Patrol is advising motorists to watch out for deer entering roads during mating and hunting season.
The THP says an increase in deer-related crashes is likely from October through December. Deer are more likely to be on the move during mating season, especially during daybreak and dusk.
Statistics from the highway patrol show that there were 5,644 deer-related crashes in 2011, including 285 that involved injuries and two that were fatal.
Since 2007, deer-related crashes in Tennessee have increased 5.9%.
Motorists are advised to avoid swerving in efforts to miss approaching deer, because swerving could cause the vehicle to flip or veer into oncoming traffic.

"The Real Deal" Bryan Power remains HOT heading into Sunday on a 27-10 ALL Sports Run that includes a 13-3 mark w/ 10* plays!

1* San Francisco (4:05 ET): Though I played against the 49ers last week (won w/ Bears outright Sunday night!), there have been two situations they have consistently excelled in under HC Jim Harbaugh. The first, which they obviously fall into here, is off a SU loss. The second is laying points on the road. I'm not a normal advocate for road chalk, but given the circumstances I'll make an exception here w/ San Francisco visiting Arizona.
Off a loss in the Harbaugh era, the Niners are 9-2 straight up and 7-3-1 against the spread. Anyone who watched last Sunday night knows that they seemed to be in complete control of the game against Chicago, at one point leading 20-7. They then allowed three fourth quarter touchdowns in the loss and the key statistic was a -4 turnover differential. Arizona is a team they should bounce back against as the Cardinals are lucky to be 2-0, needing fourth quarter rallies to win both of their games. San Francisco has gone 5-1 in this NFC West rivalry the last three years and won both games last year. Cards QB Carson Palmer will not play here.
Also, Harbaugh is 11-4-1 ATS in the road favorite role. The margin here is so slim that you'd have to think the SU win would equal a cover as well and seeing as how I can't see the Niners dropping B2B games, they are the recommendation here. 1* San Francisco.

The Crimson had claimed an automatic bid by winning the Ivy League regular-season title. Still, a palpable sense of anxiety filled the room when the brackets for the Midwest, South, and East regions were revealed and Harvard's name had yet to be called.

Valiant Capital Likes Apple and Google
Meena is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
In late October Christopher Hansen's Valiant Capital filed its 13F for the third quarter of 2012, which disclosed many of the fund's long equity positions as of the end of September. Hansen had previously been a managing director at Blue Ridge Capital, which is managed by Tiger Cub John Griffin. Even though the fund was founded in March 2008- not long ago, and also a poor time in the business cycle to launch a new fund- it has $2.7 billion under management. Read on for our quick take on the largest positions that the fund reported and compare them to previous filings.
The largest position by market value in Valiant's 13F portfolio was its roughly 220,000 shares of Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL). Apple was the most popular stock among hedge funds in the second quarter of 2012 according to our database of filings (see the full rankings) and from what we have seen so far it may very well continue its reign in our third quarter rankings. Apple currently trades at 14 times trailing earnings; even if it does not meet the targets for next year set by Wall Street (the forward P/E is only 10), that is very low for such an economy-defining company. Its earnings were up 24% in its most recent quarter compared to a year earlier, and we'd expect some growth to continue in the next few years.
Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) was right behind Apple in our second quarter hedge fund rankings, and it's right behind that company in Valiant's portfolio with the fund reporting about 120,000 shares at the end of September. Google's earnings dropped 20% in the third quarter from what the company had done in the third quarter of 2011, and when we looked at the company we thought that part of the reason had been a failure to make the Motorola Mobility Holdings acquisition pay off for shareholders. Read our recent article on Google, in which we advised investors to wait to see if it can do better at meting analyst expectations. Google trades at 15 times forward earnings estimates, so it would be a good value if it can do so.
Hansen and his team also liked Liberty Global (NASDAQ: LBTYA), a $16 billion market cap Internet, TV, and phone services company; Valiant owned 1.4 million shares at the end of the quarter. Liberty Global is unprofitable on a trailing basis, but broke into the black in the second quarter of the year and is expected to earn $1.72 per share in 2012 (which would place it at a forward P/E of 35). Sell-side analysts anticipate strong growth and so the five-year PEG ratio is only 0.5. We think that it could be a good stock to investigate further, as the company could fall short of analyst projections and still be a good value at the current price.
Internet registry services company Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN) was another of Valiant's favorites as the fund reported owning 1.6 million shares. Verisign's stock price dropped recently after the company announced that its .com registry agreement is being subjected to further review by the Department of Commerce with regards to the company's prices. Verisign's business has been experiencing good growth recently, and its earnings multiples aren't particularly high, but we'd still avoid the stock as we are concerned that it might struggle to continue its growth if it is forced to renegotiate its registry agreement.
In general, the fund didn't increase the previous four positions by much and they'd been among its top five picks at the end of the second quarter as well. Valiant did, however, increase its stake in Priceline.com (NASDAQ: PCLN) from about 70,000 shares at the beginning of July to about 90,000 at the end of September. Priceline has kept on growing, even as its market cap nears $30 billion: in the second quarter, its revenue and earnings were both up at least 20% from Q2 2011. It trades at 24 times trailing earnings, but expectations of continued strong growth place it at a forward P/E of 16 and a five-year PEG ratio of 0.9. We think that it's a good "growth at a reasonable price" pick.
