New Release of Visual Similarity Duplicate Image Finder 6.2.0. ...

Save disk space - find and delete similar and duplicate images easily.

MindGems Inc. - a well known vendor of duplicate finders and PC optimization tools has released version 6.2.0.1 of its popular duplicate photo finder tool - Visual Similarity Duplicate Image Finder (VSDIF).

VSDIF has gained enormous popularity among professional photographers and everyday users as it goes beyond the functionality provided by the standard duplicate finders available on the market. While MindGems even provides a standard duplicate file finder for free the dedicated VSDIF tool includes the so called "Visual Comparison" feature. This feature makes the tool capable of finding similar photos stored in any image file format which is impossible using even the most advanced duplicate finders available on the market. What makes VSDIF even stronger is the huge amount of image types that it supports. The supported popular image formats are well over one hundred while the RAW support includes more than three hundred file types.

A free demo of the new release can be downloaded here: Duplicate Photo Finder


The list of new features and improvements in this release is not very long as the tool is quite polished for its more than ten years presence on the market. It already includes all the features that one could expect from such tool -  filtering options, auto-selection, folder comparison, EXIF support, sidecar files support, advanced move/delete options that can recreate a source folder structure in the target location, various sort options based on all the available image properties like sizes, dates, dimensions, names and so on, options to search for similar images based on a pre-loaded sample and many more.

More prominent additions to 6.2.0.1 include a context menu in the folders list that makes it easy to disable/enable "self scan", include/exclude a folder form "auto-check" and remove from list multiple folders together. The first option tells the tool not to compare the items within a folder with each other - compare them only with items in other folders. The second and third one are quite clear - excluding a folder from "auto-check" will not mark the items from that folder when using the automatic duplicate selection feature which by default selects the oldest images with the lowest quality and image size for deleting. Speaking of auto-check this release also includes and option to automatically mark "Images with longer file names". This comes handy if one wants to get rid of the "Copy (X) of....JPG" named copies of the same file.

The results list provides two extra features that are useful when working with large image databases in order to remove the already cleaned and sorted groups - "Remove from list" which works on images and "Remove group from list" which removes entire groups.


MindGems Inc. provides market-leading freeware and commercial products for home and business use since year 2001. End user disk management and maintenance tools like Duplicate File Finder and Folder Size are available along with  corporate solutions like Visual Similarity Duplicate Image finder that are used by stock photography websites and healthcare applications.

MindGems' tools are used by more than ten million users around the globe and are reviewed and published on all major software websites and magazines including ZDNet, CNet, PCWorld and PCMagazine. The company’s products come pre-installed on several brands of desktop and laptop computers.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Feb. 12, 2015

Dr. Philip Goglia, touted as one of the top nutritionists in the nation, has launched an innovative, automated, health-minded and personalized weight management program known as G-Plans, to be launched in February 2016. After more than 30 years of transforming the bodies of celebrities and professional athletes, Dr. Goglia has designed a plan to reach a wider audience so that everyone can say goodbye to fly-by-night fads, starvation diets and risky diet pills!

G-Plans - a radical shift from traditional weight management & Nutrition plans

What makes this Web-based program salient is the customized approach that takes into account an individual's unique metabolic efficiency level. Unlike cookie cutter weight loss programs, this system administers a survey that uncovers how each person's body processes food for energy. This information is then used to tailor weekly meal plans on a rotational cycle specific to body type and metabolism. The program encompasses full body tracking and measurements to track results, exercise routines specific to metabolic type, and meal records to stay updated and in line. A built-in food exchange system allows for the flexibility to substitute recommended foods and still stay on track. Dr. Goglia and his team ensure that plans are created for each individual rather than en masse.

Nutritional meal planning system for people on the move

As a certified nutritionist with a Ph.D. in Nutrition Science, and founder of Performance Fitness Concepts in Santa Monica, Dr. Goglia's perspective is health first. Healthy eating rather than calorie deprivation has drawn the attention of Kim Kardashian, Kanye West and Chris Pratt, just a few of the clients the doctor has helped to manage weight and elevate energy. Dr. Goglia is passionate about his quest to educate and empower people who grapple with weight issues or who simply yearn for a healthful balance between disciplined and joyful eating. G-Plans is available across desktop and mobile devices, enabling people to tap into this powerful metabolic system from the comfort and privacy of their own home and unlock their fat burning power!

Individual metabolism versus one-size-fits-all

The premise of G-plans is that everyone is metabolically unique and that the one-size-fits-all approach undermines weight loss efforts regardless of a person's resolve. Candid information is shared to address gaps in the area of smart eating, nutritious snacking and planning for weak moments. It can be an auroral awakening to learn why dieting does not work and that foods marketed as healthy may be junk food in disguise.

"I have dedicated my entire life to the education and science behind weight loss and nutrition and have helped thousands of celebrities and professional athletes achieve their weight, health and wellness goals. I am now embarking on a journey to extend that support to the mainstream. As a cancer survivor who personally struggled with childhood obesity, I am committed to helping people reach their goals through this nutrition-based, individualized and affordable program," says Goglia.

SEO Agency Singapore drives local results from Google’s expanding Asian presence

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

February 12, 2016 – As Google continues to expand their presence in the Asia-Pacific region, aiming to increase its global offering by 1 billion users, Singapore’s SEO Agency is leveraging the search engine giant to bring unparalleled results to the local region.

SEO Agency is bringing outstanding search engine optimisation and web development results to Singaporean businesses, leveraging complex data and search engine algorithms to modify their clients’ websites for increased conversions, improved user experience and findability on search engine results pages.

General Manager of SEO Agency, Daphanie Burnham, says that SEO Agency is in a prime position to create immense value for Singaporean businesses. Highly attuned to the diverse local market, the agency provides innovative results that speak directly to the local audience and their needs. 

SEO Agency’s centralised location in this thriving business hub means it is well positioned to take advantage of the strong technical talent pool and out of the box thinking that is emerging in the island nation.

“Singaporeans are creating businesses that tap into local demand – and because they are so focused on the local area, they display impressive innovation and scaling. With everything from grocery delivery to on-demand taxis, our SEO services greatly help local businesses expand, improve their ROI and fast-track their leads and revenue growth,” says Burnham.

As the number of mobile internet users in the rest of the world has stagnated, Asian countries have experienced a huge uptake, with 895 million users now connected – a number that is growing exponentially.

“We see a massive potential in Singapore – the enormous creative talent here means strong technological innovation and, as Google continues to expand across the region, we will only see more growth. And, as mobile browsing increases rapidly, this is where we will focus our efforts. We’re excited to help more internet users connect using their hand-held devices,” Burnham says.

Google has signalled its interest in the region by establishing an engineering branch in Singapore’s city centre, to join its other Asian location in Hyderabad. The announcement of new employment opportunities has prompted a flurry of applications from emerging developers from Singapore’s engineers.

“Internet browsing in the region will only continue to grow as Google paves the way for Asian countries to flourish in the digital landscape. We will be there in every step to assist local businesses, giving them an opportunity to connect with an agency in their own country, rather than outsourcing work overseas,” says Burnham.

Fly and Buy Tampa Program Offers Potential Home Buyers Complimentary Flights

$

0

Tampa, February, 12 2016 This month, an independently owned real estate agency in Tampa, Florida is launching a new "Fly and Buy" program where potential home buyers can take advantage of a complimentary flight to Tampa for the purpose of purchasing a home.

The program allows buyers to fly to Tampa, look at homes in areas that have been pre-determined based on information exchanged between the buyer and Lightning Realty and then get reimbursed for their travel expenses up to $1,000 when they close escrow.

Warm weather, sun, beaches and quality of life seem to be the main draw to Tampa for retirees. But the tropical climate isn't the only draw. Florida’s cost of living is low, the average home price is $211,000, and there is no state income tax. Retirees often scour news articles looking for the best places in the country to retire and Tampa comes up quite often. It's been ranked the 3rd most recession-proof city in the country.

The idea for Fly and Buy came from a program that home builders had successfully offered in the past. They would fly potential home buyers to their retirement communities to purchase homes. However, not all retirees want to live in a retirement community. Many are choosing to live among the general population.

Large real estate franchises haven’t been able to offer Fly and Buy programs often due to restrictions in their franchise agreements. Lightning Realty is independently owned and has no such restrictions. The broker, Margaret Hassani says "We saw a need and we're filling it. More than 600,000 New Yorkers alone moved to Florida between 2000-2010 and many have come to Tampa. We want to make it as easy as possible for a home buyer to take advantage of a new lifestyle in a warmer climate no matter where they are from.”

Many people choose Tampa because it is centrally located in the state, having easy access to Orlando, Miami, and most of the other tourist destinations in Florida. Tampa is a city large enough to have sports teams, performing arts centers and major employers, without having the traffic problems of the other major cities.

Lightning Realty is a locally owned Tampa real estate agency specializing in relocating out-of-state buyers since 2009.  The Fly and Buy program is a limited time incentive for buyers wishing to travel between February 15th and August 15th, 2016.

                                                           Natural Mosquito Repellent Woven Bracelet Introduced by OUTXPRO™

                                                                      A Cool Looking and DEET Free Natural Insect Repellent

Wilmington, Delaware. Feb. 11, 2016. OUTXPRO™ introduced its new Natural Mosquito Repellent Woven Bracelet today at a special press release meeting. An effective and great looking mosquito repellent, it keeps a variety of flying and biting bugs away with natural plant oil. The mosquito repellent leather bracelet looks like the real thing and can be worn on the wrists or ankles.

This natural mosquito repellent is waterproof and can be used at work, play, camping, fishing, hiking or at sporting events—basically it can be used anywhere indoors or out. The powerful mosquito repellent effect from this beautiful bracelet comes from natural citronella and other plant oils which produce a powerful yet sweet and aromatic scent that cause insects to scatter, a natural and pleasant alternative to dangerous sprays and lotions.

The natural mosquito repellent bracelet is rated at 15 days optimal protection and full potency. Product testers at OUTXPRO™  have determined though that this bracelet will actually last much longer when placed in a zip lock bag overnight and between weekends, making this particular natural mosquito and insect repellent one of the most cost efficient available.

It is absolutely safe and natural for children, pets and babies (attach it to a baby carriage or kid carrier to keep insects off your infant or child).

Perhaps one of the best features of the OUTXPRO™  Natural Mosquito Repellent Bracelet (like all of the other natural OUTXPRO™ natural mosquito repellent products) is that it’s a safe alternative to sprays and lotions that can have negative health effects including skin rashes and exposure to toxic chemicals. This is especially advantageous to parents who want to protect their children from mosquitos and biting bugs without having them exposed to chemicals.

There has been an increase in mosquito species in the U.S., most notably the Tiger Mosquito, a very aggressive species that attacks during the day as well as night and carries at least 20 different diseases that infect humans. It should be understood that mosquitoes are not just annoying pests, they carry a number of dangerous diseases. Some of these are fairly common and others are rare, but the best way to prevent these diseases can sometimes be a simple device such as the Natural Mosquito Repellent Bracelet. Malaria, Dengue fever and West Nile Virus are some of the more deadly and common diseases carried by mosquitoes but there are many more that can be transmitted to humans.  

At the press release meeting today for the Natural Mosquito Repellent Bracelet, founder of  OUTXPRO™Rainer Diehl spoke about the new product and the importance of mosquito repellent devices:

“Most people are looking for protection from mosquito and fly species and biting insects but are more and more becoming leery of the immediate and after effects of dangerous chemical insect sprays and lotions. Our customers that have children are especially concerned with the health problems associated with chemical insect repellent products, those with DEET. That’s why at OUTXPRO™ we have become quite diligent in our efforts to research and discover safer and effective products like this beautiful woven bracelet. ”

Mr. Diehl went on to talk about the Natural Mosquito Repellent Bracelet’s visual appeal:

“Our customers love the safe and effective natural mosquito repellent effect of our products but also like their fashion appeal—and the faux woven leather repellant bracelet is one of the most striking and absolutely hip bracelets we offer. This will sure to be a big hit with teens, tweens and younger customers, and of course those who are young at heart!”

Here’s a recap of the features and benefits of the Woven Leather Natural Mosquito Repellent Bracelet:

-No dangerous chemicals and no DEET
-Repells annoying and dangerous mosquito and insect species
-Safe and natural for kids and pets
-Effective natural repellent for a variety of flying, biting bugs
-Repellent effect lasts at least 15 days
-Stylish woven leather design

Miami, Fla. (February 12, 2016) – To thrive in an industry saturated with competition, a growing number of accounting firms have begun to broaden their resources and capabilities beyond conventional CPA services to deliver greater value to clients. In fact, a 2010 industry report from CEG Worldwide showed that more than 50 percent of the nation’s largest accounting firms believe that providing a wide range of planning services is an important factor for future success.

This trend has driven many accounting firms to join forces with financial advisors to provide better integration between services and help ensure a more seamless experience for clients. It’s a topic that Roger Hewins, president of Hewins Financial | Wipfli Hewins, a national, CPA-based financial advisor, explored in-depth as a featured speaker for a seminar hosted by the Estate Planning Council of Greater Miami. The event, which took place on Thursday, January 21, at the Hyatt Regency Miami, drew more than 40 financial and estate planning professionals and also featured presentations by Mark Scott, principal at Kaufman Rossin, and Barry Flagg, president and founder of Veralytic, Inc.

During his presentation, Hewins explored industry trends, discussed the center of influence (COI) model and shared case studies that demonstrated how a truly integrated service offering could benefit clients. Overall, Hewins attributes the success of his nearly $3.8 billion advisory firm to its CPA-based relationships.

The firm has been at the forefront of the CPA-based wealth management space since 1999, when it partnered with Wipfli LLP, one of the Midwest’s leading accounting firms, to establish its integrated service approach. More recently, the firm has expanded its service model and national footprint through strategic partnerships with other accounting firms, including DZH Phillips LLP and Fuoco Group.

 “We believe our clients deserve more than a one-size-fits-all financial plan,” says Hewins. “As a CPA-based advisor, we can connect multiple aspects of a client’s financial picture and provide them with a more consistent, streamlined experience, all in one place. The days of giving out three names are over.”

After Manny Pacquiao's recent retirement announcement, after the impending fight with Timothy "Desert Storm" Bradley in April, fans of the PacMan are buzzing with excitement to see their favorite fighter go out on top in his last match. Expression Tees - a brand of apparel, based in the USA has also chosen to side with Pacquiao by launching a Pac-Man Beats TB Boxing Fight 2016 Mens T-shirt, which is now available for sale on their Amazon store: http://www.amazon.com/Mens-Eats-T-Shirt-Large-Black/dp/B00U5N7JSS. The decision to sell the new tee through Amazon.com was taken by the company after considering the larger market size and various benefits offered by Amazon.com to both buyers and sellers.

The upcoming fight between Pacman and the Desert Storm would not be the first of their career, the two have come face-to-face in 2  previous matches and as the fans of Manny know, Pacman has always reigned supreme even in their first fight in 2012; when Pacman lost as a result of a controversial decision. Manny is the favorite to win in the forthcoming match and fans are gearing up to show their support.

The Expression Tees PacMan Beats TB Boxing Fight 2016 Tee has been launched in keeping  with the trend Manny Pacquiao started himself last year, when he sent a clear message to his opponent Floyd Mayweather by wearing a t-shirt depicting Pac-Man, Pacquiao’s nickname, about to devour a dollar sign, a reference to Mayweather’s “Money” nickname. However this time, around PacMan is about to masticate ‘TB’, Timothy "Desert Storm" Bradley’s initials. The tee is available in 5 standard sizes ranging from small to XX-Large, is available in a choice of 9 different colors.

Expression Tees spokesperson said: “Time, to determine who the real champion is. No more decisions, this fight will end with the Pac-Man destroying his opponent early on. Go PaqMan! Expression Tees brings you yet another amazing design - Pac-Man Beats TB Boxing Fight 2016. All of our designs are printed in the U.S. on high-quality garments. Just wait until you slip on one of these super-soft tops... you'll never want to take it off. Expression Tees has everything in stock and ready to ship. Most orders ship same day or the next day, and are delivered within 2-3 business days (on average).”

Expressions Tee has decided to set the price of the PacMan Beats TB Tee at $9.99 USD which is highly competitive considering the prices offered on other similar products, the company appreciates that there is a large Pac-Man fan base who wants nothing more than to show their support for their favorite. According to the company their tee sits at the top of its range examples, because it has been designed to make the intentions of the Pac-Man, Pacquiao’s Fandom – to win the fight and retain the top spot, clear to everyone.

Critics and fans of the opponent side believe that although Manny may be the favorite to win, his long break away from the ring since his fight with Mayweather last year may dull his game, a speculation which the people who side with Manny have simply rejected. Nonetheless, the excitement of watching the PacMan vs. TB match prevails supreme amongst boxing fans.

Expressions Tee has ensured that the Pac-Man fans will enjoy the best standard of quality when they select their tee, the Men's T-shirts are 6 oz. preshrunk 100% cotton jersey knit, with taped neck and shoulders, double-needle sleeve and bottom hems. Each tee has been printed with a large yellow graphic in the U.S.

Matthew C., a diehard fan of Manny Pacquiao and a satisfied buyer of the tee, wrote in his review: “Wasn't sure if I was getting a one-time use junky quality shirt. This is actually a pretty nice shirt as I'm very picky when it comes down to how a t-shirt should fit. This is what I was hoping for, quality and very fast service guys, thank a bunch. I will be buying more as the weeks go on! Go Pacman!!”

Another fan, Andy wrote: “Love it!! I and my friends are ready for the fight!! Let's go PacMan!!”

Buying the novelty t-shirt from Amazon.com will give buyers a chance to read other customer reviews and feedback. Generally, many buyers choose to buy from Amazon.com due to the wide variety of each product available from different sellers on one platform allows them to compare and select the one that matches their needs. Expression Tees Company is confident that their superior quality will urge the customer to choose their tees over others due to their comfort and style.

Author Bradley Wind And Kindle Press Announce The Release Of The New Literary Fiction Novel A Whole Lot


Author Bradley Wind and Kindle Press are pleased to announce the release of their new literary fiction novel, A Whole Lot. 

Abel Velasco calculates many things. Things like the arc of falling sycamore leaves, the duration of a dog sneeze, or the number of times his aunt might hit him. He can’t help it – he’s a savant.

It is 1982. Abel has left foster care to live with his newly found relatives. His typical teenage struggles are compounded by the complication of his savant talents. Searching for a challenge, Abel becomes obsessed with the mysterious architecture of an abandoned mansion and strangely numbered Bible, launching his journey from suburban New Jersey to Berkeley, California and beyond.

Dr. Darold A. Treffert, author of "Extraordinary People," consultant for the movie "Rainman" and expert on savant syndrome wrote to Bradley: "Savant syndrome typically is present from birth as a part of some developmental disorder, including autism. But there are also cases of what I call "acquired savant" syndrome following head injury. The Acquired Savant raises interesting questions about the little Rain Man that might reside, perhaps, within us all."

A Whole Lot is available in both print and ebook formats.

Author Marci Boudreaux Releases Fourth Book In Her Stonehill Romance Series, Jessica’s Wish


Author Marci Boudreaux is pleased to announce the release of the fourth book in her Stonehill Romance series, Jessica's Wish. Book one, The Road Leads Back (ISBN: 978-0986120800) was released in April 2015, book two, Friends Without Benefits (ISBN: 978-0986120817) was released in July 2015, and book three, The Forgotten Path (ISBN: 978-0986120824) was released in October 2015. All four books are stand alone books in the series. 

There is nothing Jessica wants more than to be like everyone else, but between her Down Syndrome and her colorful family, “average” isn’t part of her vocabulary. This year when she blows out eleven candles on her homemade vegan cake she makes the same wish she’s made for as many birthdays as she can remember: she wants a mother.

Jessica’s father Phil has worked his entire life to create a more stable childhood for his daughter than he had. But a supportive mother, a recently returned father, rainbow pancakes, and princesses can’t heal the dark void left in Phil’s heart which he won’t even admit is there.

When Mallory's mother’s life unexpectedly turns upside down, Mallory realizes her dreams come second to her heart, and she leaves her dream job in a big city to return home set on helping her fiercely independent mother recover. After forming a unique bond with Jessica—and a friendship with Jessica’s hot father—Mallory finds that in coming back to Stonehill she might just have found a way to make all of her dreams come true.

But as their families start pushing Phil and Mallory together, old insecurities and Phil’s worst fears threaten to break up the happy trio and catch Jessica in the emotional crossfire.

All four books in the Stonehill Romance series are available in both print and ebook formats.
