Coumadin Users - Vitamin K App Help Keep INR In Check Using iOS Devices - Published on 06/05/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Massachusetts based independent developer James Hollender's Vitamin K app, one of 8 iNutrient apps for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. The Vitamin K app allows users to easily find out how much vitamin K there is in over 900 different foods which is critical in helping keep the effectiveness of their blood thinning medications working properly. The foods are rated from Extremely Low to Extremely High in Vitamin K. The new version makes the app Universal with separate screens for iPad.

Revere, Massachusetts - Revere, Massachusetts - Independent developer James Hollender's Vitamin K app, one of 8 iNutrient apps for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. The Vitamin K app allows users to more easily keep their INR in check by finding out how much vitamin K there is in over 900 different foods which is critical in helping keep the effectiveness of their blood thinning medications working properly. The new version makes the app Universal with separate screens for iPad.

Since version 3.0 the app is now designed to take advantage of the full screen when run on the iPad.

New to all 8 iNutrient apps (iCals, iCarbs, iCholesterol, iFiber, iProteins, iSatFat, iSugars and Vitamin K) is the capability to record Custom Serving Sizes from 1 to 500 grams in 0.1 gram increments. Users can easily adjust the amounts while viewing the weight in not only grams, but also kilograms, ounces and pounds. In addition to immediate weight updates as you change the number of grams, the nutrient content and calories get updated also. This makes it easy to record the exact serving size you're looking for based on any of the variables: 9 for Vitamin K, 6 for iCals, and 7 for each of the others.

Startup times for all of the 8 iNutrient apps is now considerably faster than before.

If you take blood thinning medications like Coumadin(R) or Warfarin (also known as Jantoven, Marfarin, Lawarin, Waran and Marevan), then this is an app you will truly make use of on a regular basis. Most lists providing information on the content of vitamin K (K1, K1D & K2) in foods generally contain only a limited number of foods, and often they don't indicate the serving size. It is important to understand that the goal isn't to not eat any foods with vitamin K, but rather to keep relatively constant the amount of vitamin K ingested each day so the amount of Coumadin(R) prescribed can work effectively. This can be different for every person using blood thinning medications, and this is why doctors require occasional blood tests as they indicate if the dosage needs to be adjusted.

All too often we hear that you should stay away from dark green leafy vegetables if you are using Coumadin(R), but there are a host of other foods containing vitamin K. Even the dark green leafy vegetables contain varying amounts of vitamin K. Further, each food has its own characteristics and sometimes whether it is fresh, frozen or canned can make a difference in the vitamin K content. The important thing to understand is you may be inadvertently ingesting something which you think doesn't contain any vitamin K when in fact it does. A good example would be carrots which contain varying amounts of vitamin K. A single baby carrot has only 0.9 mcg (very low) while a cup of canned carrot juice contains 36.6 mcg (high).

The Vitamin K app provides information about foods and how they are rated for Vitamin K content based on preparation and serving sizes. This is provided as a means to assist in deciding which foods to eat if you are using blood thinning medications such as Coumadin(R) or Warfarin. The foods are rated from EXTREMELY LOW to EXTREMELY HIGH in Vitamin K. The following colors help readily identify which is which:

* Black = Rated EXTREMELY HIGH in Vitamin K (700.0 - 1146.6 mcg)
* Dark Red = Rated VERY HIGH in Vitamin K (300.0 - 699.9 mcg)
* Red = Rated HIGH in Vitamin K (25.0 - 299.9 mcg)
* Orange = Rated MODERATELY HIGH in Vitamin K (20.0 - 24.9 mcg)
* Yellow = Rated MODERATE in Vitamin K (15.0 - 19.9 mcg)
* Yellow-Green = Rated MODERATELY LOW in Vitamin K (10.0 - 14.9 mcg)
* Green = Rated LOW in Vitamin K (5.0 - 9.0 mcg)
* Cyan = Rated VERY LOW in Vitamin K (0.1 - 4.9 mcg)
* White = Rated EXTREMELY LOW in Vitamin K (less than 0.1 mcg)

There are eight tables listing foods:
* All Foods
* Fast Foods
* Fruits & Vegetables
* Meat, Fish & Shellfish
* Dairy & Egg
* Cereal Grains & Pasta
* Sweets
* Snacks

The All Foods table includes a search capability to quickly find food servings you are interested in.

Selecting an item in any of the tables will display pertinent information about the selected food serving:

* Food Title
* Weight in grams
* Common Measure, e.g., 1/2 cup, etc.
* Vitamin K Content (overall)
* Vitamin K1 Content
* Vitamin K1D Content
* Vitamin K2 Content
* Calories
* USDA Description
* USDA Food Group
* USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference ID

Information is derived from the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference: Vitamin K Content of Selected Foods per Common Measure. There are currently over 930 different foods included, searchable using approximately 2,500 names (some foods are known by different names or how they are prepared, e.g., "Egg, Scrambled" and "Scrambled Egg"). A few of these have as many as six searchable names. The Info page provides additional information about Vitamin K:

* What is Vitamin K? - Describes what vitamin K is and how it affects the clotting of blood; Identifies the differences between vitamins K1, K2 and K3

* Coumadin(R) & Vitamin K - Provides information concerning the interaction between Coumadin(R) and vitamin K; Explains why Coumadin(R) might have been prescribed, how it works and what can help keep your blood INR/PT in the desired range; Illustrates potential interactions of alcoholic beverages, dietary supplements, vitamin E, herbal medications and antibiotics

* Highest Vitamin K Foods - Lists 11 different foods containing the highest amounts of vitamin K

* How to Use this App - Shows detailed information about how to record the user's personal nutrient intake of Vitamin K, how to make changes to what the user has recorded, how to backup and restore the data, and also a list of the foods that include Vitamins K1D and/or K2.

* Access My Records - Provides up to a full year of recorded entries, listed and grouped by date. Users may also view each individual entry in the database.

* Other Important Information - Provides access to a copy of the User Agreement, and links to communicate with the developer about bugs, suggestions or comments.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later

* iProteins - Proteins
* iSatFat - Saturated Fats

Monkey Drum Deluxe 1.0 for iOS - Educational Music App Featured By A

Monkey Drum Deluxe 1.0 for iOS - Educational Music App Featured By Apple - Published on 06/05/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Flippfly announces that Monkey Drum Deluxe 1.0 has been featured by Apple in the "New and Noteworthy" section of the App Store. This exposure for our latest universal iOS app could allow it to compete with larger well-funded studios. The app, which is designed to be a fun way for children to learn about music, allows users to create detailed musical compositions by drawing on a touch screen. Monkey Drum lets users interact with entertaining jungle animals while creating real music.

Redgranite, Wisconsin - Flippfly is proud to announce that Monkey Drum Deluxe 1.0 has been featured by Apple in the "New and Noteworthy" section of the App Store. This exposure for their latest universal iOS app could allow it to compete with larger well-funded studios. With hundreds of apps submitted to Apple's App Store every day, it has become extremely difficult for small developers like Flippfly to garner attention for their releases. While larger studios have the ability to draw attention to their products through expensive advertising campaigns, small independent developers have few options to get their app noticed.

However, an app that earns Apple's coveted "New and Noteworthy" feature can gain attention and exposure that would cost tens of thousands of dollars through traditional online advertising. This is the fortunate placement of Flippfly's latest offering, Monkey Drum Deluxe. The app, which is designed to be a fun way for children to learn about music, allows users to create detailed musical compositions by drawing on a touch screen. After being released in relative obscurity, it has risen to the thirtieth place of the education category on the App Store. The week-long feature has the potential to push the app into the top twenty-five, at which point it would gain even more exposure on the mobile version of the app store.

Monkey Drum has drawn widespread praise from parents and app reviewers like Rebecca Fuller, a music teacher and blogger who said, "It's a really great way to use creativity and rhythm and wrap it into a whole lot of fun."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iPhone OS 4.3 or later
* 16.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Monkey Drum Deluxe 1.0 is only $1.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Spellorama 1.0 for iOS - The Fun Way to Learn to Spell - Published on 06/05/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Melbourne based The App Bakery has announced Spellorama 1.0 for iOS devices. Spellorama is an iOS spelling test game for children based around the idea of adding your own testing words and having the Spellorama robot test you. Play only your words, or have the robot test you from all the words it knows. Your child will love learning to spell with the Spellorama robot. The Spellorama robot will speak each word and keep score, allowing the child to practice until they hit 100% success.

Melbourne, Australia - Announcing that the App Bakery has released its first childrens application, Spellorama, for iPod touch and iPhone. Spellorama is a fun educational application that allows children to learn to spell using words that you control rather than a fixed list.

Most schools provide children with a weekly list of words for them to learn. By adding these words to Spellorama each week you can focus the childs learning to those words. The Spellorama robot will speak each word and keep score, allowing the child to practice until they hit 100% success.

Spellorama keeps a list of all words entered allowing whilst allowing you to select only those that you want to test on. However, sometimes the robot can't always pronounce a word so the option to add in phonetic spellings is available as well as a practice function which allows you to get a word spoken correctly before adding it to the list. If you're still not happy then the word can be sent to the master robot who will work out how to say the word and then add it to Spelloramas built in word list.

During the game children can have the robot speak the word again, speak it slower or faster, as well as display the word for a few seconds to help with the learning process.

About Spellorama:
Spellorama helps children learn to spell using only those words which they need to learn.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* Required iOS 5.1 or later
* 8.6MB

Pricing and Availability:
Spellorama 1.0 is only $0.99 (USD) and is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category. Promo codes are available for qualified reviews. Please specify the website or blog you represent when making your request.

ADT's Get Plain Text and MenuMate - Now Localized for 11 Languages

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

ADT's Get Plain Text and MenuMate - Now Localized for 11 Languages - Published on 06/05/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Premier Macintosh development company, Alice Dev Team has announced the availability of additional 11 languages versions of Get Plain Text and MenuMate, the company's popular products. Get Plain Text released for Mac OS, is designed to rid users of the hassle presented with copying formatted text. The app allows users to convert text to plain text. MenuMate is designed to help users get access of an app's menu bar item whenever it is necessary.

Novosibirsk, Russian Federation - The new versions of Get Plain Text and MenuMate also includes improved stability and few minor bug fixes.

Get Plain Text released for Mac OS, is designed to rid users of the hassle presented with copying formatted text. Get Plain Text provides a simple solution for users who want to copy formatted text - the app allows users to convert text to plain text.

"If you use the copy/paste functions in Mac OS, then you know how big of a pain it can be to manually convert formatted text," says Stanislav Kuptsov, CEO of Alice Dev Team. "We developed Get Plain Text to provide a solution to this everyday frustration, and think anyone who needs to convert text to plain text will appreciate how valuable Get Plain Text is. This app will lower your stress level and save you tons of time."

Get Plain Text is a practical utility program offered as a solution to the frustrations faced in converting formatted text on Mac OS. The program converts copied text into plain text without any hassle. It instantly removes all unneeded formatting, including: colors, typeface size, style (boldface, italics, etc.), hyperlinks, images, and anything else that is not plain text.

"Now you can put plain text in your letters and documents using copy/paste functions, without having to clean it up manually," says Kuptsov. "Get Plain Text will convert any bit of text into plain text, no matter where you copied it from (a website, PDF document or elsewhere). You can activate the feature manually, or check "Automatically remove formatting" to make the app take care of it every time you copy something, allowing it to convert text to plain text."

System Requirements:
Get Plain Text v.1.1 requires an Intel based Macintosh, Mac OS X 10.6 or greater and 0.3MB of hard disk space.

Pricing and Availability:
Get Plain Text v.1.1 is $2.99 (USD) and available worldwide through the Mac App Store in the Utilities category. Review copies are available upon request.

MenuMate, released for Mac OS, is designed to help users get access of an app's menu bar item whenever it is necessary. MenuMate provides a simple solution for users who tired of straining their wrist from mousing back to the menu bar all the time, especially if a user has a big screen, twin screens or a tablet screen combo.

"All you need to do is assign a hotkey or mouse button (other than left or right) to it. If you have a Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad, you can use Magic Prefs (free) to create a virtual centre button for them. To access MenuMate's preferences, just click on the octopus icon in the menu bar", says Stanislav Kuptsov, CEO of Alice Dev Team. "Waste less time... get more work done!"

Anyone who switches from other systems to the Mac has a problem: the menu for the applications is not longer located where it was, but rather all the way at the top of the desktop. This means that the mouse has to travel a long way, since the important commands are not always immediately accessible. Understandably many people that switched are irritated by that.

The app MenuMate will remedy the problem. It will ensure, that the menu of active apps opens exactly where the cursor is located. Something that's easy to get used to, especially since the tool shows its advantage instantly: all important software functions are immediately available without having to memorize hotkeys or do extensive navigating with the mouse.

MenuMate hooks itself right into the Mac's menu bar. The icon has to be accessed only once, in order to configure the app. The right and left mouse button may not be assigned to the tool. This, naturally, leaves only the other mouse button - the middle one. Once the tool has been assigned, "MenuMate" may be used immediately.

System Requirements:
MenuMate v.1.1 requires an Intel based Macintosh, Mac OS X 10.6 or greater and 0.5MB of hard disk space.

Pricing and Availability:
MenuMate v.1.1 is $4.99 (USD) and available worldwide through the Mac App Store in the Utilities category. Review copies are available upon request.

Ten Monsters Come to Call - New Storybook App Teaches Counting Skills - Published on 06/05/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

To help young children learn about numbers and counting, wryIP, LLC today introduces Ten Monsters Come to Call, its latest educational mobile app and interactive storybook featuring an original story, classical music, and lovable characters. Available for the iPad, Kindle, Android tablets, Nook Color, and Nook Tablet, the app shares the story of ten adorable monsters dropping by to help children learn their numbers and counting from one to ten.

Phoenix, Arizona - To help young children learn about numbers and counting, wryIP, LLC today introduces Ten Monsters Come to Call, its latest educational mobile app and interactive storybook featuring an original story, classical music, and lovable characters. Available for the iPad, Kindle, Android tablets, Nook Color, and Nook Tablet, the app shares the story of ten adorable monsters dropping by to help children learn their numbers and counting from one to ten.

An original musical score and interactive surprises bring the story to life and encourage children to explore. As the story unfolds, the monster count increases one by one - each monster brings some fun-loving mischief.

Numbers are shown in both written and numeric form, and the app can even read out loud to the child. Throughout the screen there are interactive surprises to discover including what each monster does when tapped.

"As parents of young children ourselves, we designed Ten Monsters Come to Call as a fun and interactive way to learn number and reading skills," said Daniel Milowski, CEO of wryIP, LLC, which created the app. "Children will love the cute characters and parents will appreciate the stimulating educational environment."

In Ten Monsters Come to Call, children build number recognition and basic counting skills. The storyline and numbers shown on each monster character are synchronized so that children learn to associate the word "One" with the symbol "1" and the concept of the number one. This aids in developing strong foundational math skills.

To support reading, each page of the story features a "Read It To Me" speaker button that speaks the written words out loud. As children become familiar with the words and the story, they begin to develop letter, word, and sentence recognition skills essential to reading.

The original musical score played throughout the story is a classically inspired piece that stimulates the child's brain with complex musical patterns. Scientific studies have shown music to be an effective aid in priming the brain for learning.

The Ten Monsters Come to Call app is full of interactive exploration possibilities in each screen. Touching an object can reveal another hidden object, play a sound, or trigger an animation. High interactivity stimulates learning engagement and helps develop hand eye coordination and motor skills in young children.

Features of the Ten Monsters Come to Call app include:
* Interactive storybook: Discover what happens when ten mischief-making monsters drop by
* Educational activities: Children build number recognition and basic counting skills by advancing through and interacting with the game
* Original story and characters: Ten adorable monsters have come to play and encourage learning
* Stimulating music: The classically inspired music is an original score designed to engage and stimulate the child's mind

Device requirements:
* iPad, Kindle, Android tablets, Nook Color, or Nook Tablet
* Requires at least iOS 4.3 or Android 2.2
* 5.2 MB (iPad), 8.2 MB (Android), 16 MB (Nook)

Vitamin-R 1.80 displays calendar events - Published on 06/05/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

publicspace has announced Vitamin-R 1.80, an update to its productivity tool for doers not planners. Vitamin-R breaks down large, vaguely defined tasks into a series of short time slices of between 10 and 30 minutes, each with specific, easily reachable and actionable objectives - helping to improve focus and overcome procrastination. Version 1.80 now displays calendar events above the durations slider and makes a range of other improvements to how durations can be set.

Luxembourg City, Luxembourg - publicspace has announced version 1.80 of Vitamin-R, its productivity tool designed for doers not planners. Vitamin-R uses the latest insights from neuroscience to overcome procrastination, retain focus and maintain motivation.

Vitamin-R creates a brain-friendly environment with short bursts of distraction-free, highly focused activity alternating with opportunities for renewal, reflection and intuition. The built-in task logging and statistics features create a positive momentum towards productivity by providing visible feedback on your progress and achievements.

Version 1.80 now shows calendar events above the duration slider, allows durations to be set via the keyboard, by clicking on the quarter hour indicators and much more.

Vitamin-R breaks down large, vaguely defined tasks into a series of short "time slices" of between 10 and 30 minutes, each with specific, easily reachable and actionable objectives. The objective, time frame, concentration level and completion status of each time slice is logged automatically to the user log. Furthermore, the Vitamin-R Log Book also maintain hyperlinks to tasks in Cultured Code's Things and OmniGroup's OmniFocus to do list managers.

During a time slice Vitamin-R keeps you focused on accomplishing only this one objective and provides you with mechanisms for dealing with interruptions, poor concentration, etc.

Vitamin-R concentrates on getting started which allows you to break through the resistance of procrastination and creates a positive feedback loop of small achievements that get you closer to your ultimate aims. This greatly reduces the stress caused by looming deadlines and a lack of a clear direction, thus enabling you to enjoy guilt-free breaks in which you can pursue other interests.

Vitamin-R provides you with the "Now & Later Board", complete with FastType magic, to give you a place to quickly dump all those things that go through your head and allows to get back to the task at hand. While Vitamin-R assists you in getting on with your work, it also keeps a customizable record of your progress that can help you detect positive, os well as negative work patterns thus allowing you find the way that suits you best.

Vitamin-R plugs into your life rather than trying to take it over. You can use it occasionally to overcome procrastination or mental blocks or re-organize your entire working life around the concepts that it embodies. It integrates with rather than trying to replace traditional to-do list managers, such as Things or OmniFocus.

System Requirements:
