Polly Pry
Leonel Campbell Ross O'Bryan (1857–16 July 1938), known under the pen name Polly Pry, was a controversial reporter for ''The Denver Post'' and later as a freelancer in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. She is best known for her connection to the case of Alfred Packer as an investigative reporter. Early life Pry was born to a wealthy family in 1857. Aged fifteen, she eloped to Mexico with a railroad industrialist named George Anthony. Five years later, Pry left Anthony and moved to New York to become a reporter. While initially being rejected by ''The New York Times'', she succeeded in getting a trial assignment on a recent slum fire. The article she then produced was good enough to earn her a full time job there. In 1898, Pry was hired by Frederick Bonfils for the ''Denver Post'', becoming the paper's first female reporter.

Paul Pry (play)
''Paul Pry'' (1825), a farce in three acts, was the most notable play written by 19th-century English playwright John Poole. It premiered in London on 13 September 1825 at the Haymarket Theatre and ran 114 performances. The play continued to be popular until the early 1870s. Synopsis The storyline is centered on a comical, idle, meddlesome and mischievous fellow consumed with curiosity. Unable to mind his own business, he's an interfering busybody who conveniently leaves behind an umbrella everywhere he goes in order to have an excuse to return and eavesdrop. At the end, however, Pry becomes a hero for rescuing papers from a well that incriminate more serious troublemakers. '' Cherry Ripe'', the 17th-century English folk song to words by the English poet Robert Herrick, is adapted into the play. Analysis Rumors abounded that the Pry character was based on the eccentric Thomas ("Tommy") Hill, editor of the ''Dramatic Mirror'', who took daily walks with Poole at Kensington Garde ...

Pry Bar
A crowbar, also called a wrecking bar, pry bar or prybar, pinch-bar, or occasionally a prise bar or prisebar, colloquially gooseneck, or pig bar, or in Australia a jemmy, is a lever consisting of a metal bar with a single curved end and flattened points, used to force two objects apart or gain mechanical advantage in lifting; often the curved end has a notch for removing nails. The design can be used as any of the three lever classes. The curved end is usually used as a first-class lever, and the flat end as a second-class lever. Designs made from thick flat steel bar are often referred to as utility bars. Materials and construction A common hand tool, the crow bar is typically made of medium-carbon steel, possibly hardened on its ends. Commonly crowbars are forged from long steel stock, either hexagonal or sometimes cylindrical. Alternative designs may be forged with a rounded I-shaped cross-section shaft. Versions using relatively wide flat steel bar are often refer ...

Pry (novel)
''Pry'' is a 2014 interactive digital novella for iPad created by Samantha Gorman and Daniel Cannizzaro, which follows an American ex-soldier named James after he returns home from the first Gulf War. The novella combines text, haptic gestures, audio, and video to convey James's struggles with issues such as PTSD and his worsening eyesight as he works as a demolition expert. ''Pry'' has been influential in the field of electronic literature both because of its mainstream success and its innovative gestural mode of interaction, where readers for example "pry" open a character's eyes by pinching and dragging their fingers on the screen. The work has won several awards, is the subject of several scholarly publications and is taught at several universities. Gestural interface The gestural modes of narrative interaction Gorman launched in the iPad novella ''Pry'', co-authored with Danny Cannizzaro and released by the studio Tender Claws in 2014, have been analysed by scholars ...
