Channeling New Cloud Opportunities
Channel companies must accept that the cloud fundamentally disrupts their traditional business models. They must recognize that meeting their customers' rising expectations requires transforming their go-to-market strategies and services. It changes the skills required, the sales tactics, the value propositions and service delivery methodologies.

The Cloud Channel Manifesto:
Why Cloud Vendors and Channel Companies Must Build Stronger Strategic Alliances to Capitalize on Today's Rapidly Expanding Market Opportunities
An Independent Analysis by THINKstrategies, Inc.
One of the biggest misconceptions in the Cloud Computing market is that today's new web-based services will 'disintermediate' the channel because of their simpler, more user-friendly solutions, and direct sales and delivery business models.
While there is no question that the role of the traditional channel will be significantly impacted by the rapidly evolving Cloud market, we firmly believes there is still plenty of room for innovative channel organizations to operate. There are also plenty of opportunities for new types of channel partners to emerge and succeed in the Cloud.

Asthma is a respiratory disease in which frequent attacks of the lung, it causes difficulty in breathing. Usually, it occurs due to hypersensitivity or an allergic condition persons. Thus narrowing of the lung airways occurs and which may lead to a cough, wheeze, and shortness of breath. Around 180 million people in worldwide get affected by this respiratory disease. Approximately 180,000 persons in globally have lost their life due to this respiratory disease asthma.
Types of Asthma
• Occupational asthma
• Aspirin-induced asthma
• Alcohol-induced asthma
• Non- allergic asthma
• Exercise-induced asthma
• Allergic asthma
• Bronchial asthma
Diagnostic method
• Chest x-ray
• Spirometer
• Peak flow meter
• A single test done for diagnosis doesn't confirm the onset of asthma attacks. The spirometer is the best method in asthma diagnosing.
May have some or all of the following:
1. Previous history
2. Difficulty in breathing
3. Wheezing
4. Difficulty in talking full sentences
5. Increased breathing rate.
Treating in emergency conditions-
• Keep calm and reassure the casualty. Get them to use their inhaler.
• Let them adopt the position they find comfortable. Do not make the casualty lie down.
• Mild attacks should ease within minutes, if not ask the casualty to use their inhaler again.
• Call the ambulance and take the person to the hospital at the earliest if the symptom gets worse.
• If the casualty becomes unresponsive, open the airway and check breathing.
• If the casualty is breathing, place them in the recovery position. Monitor breathing and level of response until help arrives.
• If the casualty is not breathing, begin resuscitation.
• Once the airway is open, check the casualty's breathing.
• Place your cheeks above the casualty's mouth/ nose.
• Listen, look and feel of breathing.
• If asthma worsens the circulatory system, thereby heartbeat gets stopped means try the CPR method to make your heart beat.
• Perform 30 chest compression's using both hands
• Kneel beside casualty.
• Leaning over the casualty, press straight down to five to six centimeter keeping elbows straight.
• Release pressure fully, but do not take hands off the chest.
• Give 30 chest compression's, at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute.
• Ensure the airway is open
• Take a breath; place your mouth over the casualty's mouth, making a good seal.
• Breathe steadily into the casualty's mouth for one second. Watch the chest rise.
• After this process the patient starts to open eye, thus breath pattern becomes normal and ease.
• Using nebulizer beta-agonist medication to be given.
• In severe case try to administer this beta-agonist through injections.
• Beta-agonist medication in the form of either terbutaline or epinephrine should be given.
Thus immediate attention is must in a severe case of asthma condition. This is a respiratory disease after circulation; respiration is essential to survive so both are equally to be considered important function and paid attention to effective treatment methods at the earliest to cure asthmatic conditions.

On the train, a few seats in front of me, I hear a girl ask her father, 'How much do you love me, Daddy?' I didn't hear his reply, but I couldn't help but break into a smile. I then heard her ask, 'Mummy, how far do you love me?', and the reply to that question was hidden from me too, but, again, it was impossible not to smile. As the train stopped, I stared at the window, where the view to the nighttime landscape, pin-pricked with tiny orange squares, had been hijacked by the reflected noise and glare from inside the carriage. In the abducted form of this glass pane turned mirror, I watched the child and her parents get up from their seats and walk towards the exit. 'I love you a million, Daddy, and I love you a million, too, Mummy.'
My smiles were aimed not so much at the child, but at the honesty of such simple questioning, and for the answers she supplied which quantified that same simple logic. For the less one knows of language or the more limited an experience one has with it, the greater the chance that they will speak with a certain kind of precision and efficacy, however naive or whimsical those words might be. As adults, we become obsessed with crafting our speech. In split-second reactions to each word we voice, we can be refining or rerouting the words intended to follow. When I become aware of this deliberate craft in my own speech, four or five excruciatingly manicured words ahead of myself, a very basic kind of shame creeps in and I can no longer continue to give sound to the thoughts in my head.
For the child who opens their mouth and exclaims, 'I feel like tears', I would suggest that that child has described far more powerfully and touched far more deeply the listening adult than the one who correctly says, 'I feel like crying.' Grammar gives words their order, whether spoken or written, but it can also take away their potency and it can occasionally allow description to unravel intent.
As I continued on my journey, I realised such rules and constraints could dim the beauty of a child communicating their love to a parent, or keep, for that second or two longer, the cradling arm of an adult from embracing the child whose need for tears must first travel a grammatical loop past 'crying'.

Xanthorrhoea quadrangulata – Grass Tree
This species of slow growing and long lived grass tree originates in South Australia, and has a low growing trunk topped with a spray of grassy leaves. It has a spear-like spike of flowers which can reach five metres tall. A very architectural and handsome plant for landscaping work. To successfully grow grass trees, plant in a well drained soil in full sun, as they are prone to root rot. They will also do well in large containers. Tolerate some frost, and dry periods. The red resin that grass trees exude has been used as glue and varnish. Propagation is from seed, which can take a couple of months to germinate.

This and That
This is not to say that I should not remain vigilant. Weighing on Mr. Scale will be a daily occurance for the rest of my life. I will never let pounds "creep" up on me. If there is an extra pound on that scale, I am dayum sure gonna address it! Why did it happen and do whatever needs to be done to correct it!
I now have so much more time to spend thinking and blogging about joys of my life instead of weight battles. Anyone who follows my blog is sure to know that I absolutely LOVE being Grandma. I have worked 32 years of my life and on the verge of retiring so that I can devote more time to my girls. I have always been a working Mom, I missed out on so much pleasure with my own daughter. Spoiling my grandchildren is my idea of fun. They grow up so fast and before I am know it, hanging around Grandparents will no longer be cool. Good thing I have 3 adult children, so I am sure I will have replacements!
My newfound healthy life is affording me so much time to explore new hobbies and interests!
My wish for today is that all banders will find themselves in this same place. Today I realized that I have not counted calories, measured portions or stressed about exercising or dieting in over two months. I don't have to think about it thanks to my band.
Happy Saturday to everyone!
12 comments:
Great post!! And I agree!ReplyDelete
I'm looking forward to reaching that point. Still being realatively new to the band (only 4 months) the issues of weight loss are still a huge focus of my life, but knowing that it is possible to have a life id encouraging. Thanks for bringing this up!ReplyDelete
You are in such a great place in your journey, you're an inspiration...ReplyDelete
Happy Saturday to you too! I totally agree with the life shift and it is soooo much more than I ever thought it would be...life after weightloss. I wish we could share it with others who are trying and failing at the weightloss game...I just don't think words can capture it though.ReplyDelete
I absolutely agree with you!ReplyDelete
Great post and I am very happy for you! Enjoy every minute of it!
I am with you...life is nicer knowing that I am healthier, my clothes fit and I feel great. I also love that food and dieting does not rule my life (although blogging might!!!) and I am just living...what freedom.ReplyDelete
You've got to the freedom part of this weight loss journey. That's what we all strive for.ReplyDelete
Great post, Dee. Enjoy every minute.ReplyDelete
Hi Dee...how do I go about following you? There is no "follow" button!ReplyDelete
I love reading your blog and it would be easier If it would show up in my list of blogs I follow.
You sound very content in your weight loss journey and I live for that day myself. Great post!
I so agree with you! So much more to this than just losing weight.ReplyDelete
Hi Dee...it worked! I am now a proud follower!ReplyDelete
I know exactly how you feel. When I found that I was beginning to blog about things other than the band and weight loss, I started a 2nd blog about my house and crafting - http://sallysburrow.blogspot.com - so as to not mix the two. I still blog on my weight loss blog, as well. Isn't it great to have so many doors open up in life?ReplyDelete

By fostering the art of creative writing, the mission of Inprint is to inspire readers and writers in Houston.
Inprint envisions Houston, Texas, as a city where the literary arts are a defining resource. Inprint serves as a vital wellspring of literary life, both locally and nationally. Thanks in large part to Inprint's activities and support, Houston is a vibrant community of creative writers and readers, rich with workshops, readings, forums, and other kinds of literary activity. Writers from all backgrounds and parts of the world delight in coming to Houston to read, teach, and study creative writing; and thousands of Houstonians, recognizing the value and impact of the written word, join in Inprint programs to write, read, and support the literary arts. The community is enriched by some of the nation's top emerging writers, who study at the University of Houston Creative Writing Program and teach at Inprint and in community centers, schools, universities, and other places throughout the Houston area.

Inprint Readings for Young People, a family-friendly reading series presenting the nation's top middle-grade authors; the Inprint Poetry Buskers, spreading the joy of poetry by writing poems on demand on typewriters at events throughout the city; and collaborations with local and national organizations.

Inprint was founded in 1983 by a group of community leaders who sought to address a need in Houston for greater support and appreciation of the literary arts. They envisioned Houston as a city of letters, a place where writers come to study, work, and make a life for themselves, thereby enhancing the city and making the power of the written word vital to its citizens. The founders—Glenn Cambor, Karl Kilian, and Gay Block—soon recruited others to the cause.
The founders knew that supporting the nascent and already distinguished University of Houston Creative Writing Program (UH CWP) was crucial to realizing this vision, and the support of the UH CWP became a raison d'être for Inprint, resulting in a powerful synergy connecting a community nonprofit literary arts organization, students in a university-based creative writing program, and a major American city. Since its inception, Inprint has provided fellowships, prizes, and other support to UH CWP students of more than $2.8 million, enabling the university to recruit some of the country's most talented emerging writers to live and work in Houston. Thanks to Inprint's support, the UH CWP continues to be one of the nation's most renowned creative writing programs, with a growing international reputation; and the students and alumni, in addition to enriching our literary tradition, provide a wellspring of talent from which Inprint and many other Houston-area schools, colleges, and organizations draw writing instructors, teachers, and writers.
As the organization has blossomed, Inprint has nurtured a vibrant literary life in Houston among diverse social, racial, economic, and age groups by launching and developing several essential community literary performance and educational programs. Inprint's flagship performance program is the prestigious Inprint Margarett Root Brown Reading Series, founded by the UH CWP in 1980 as the Houston Reading Series. Now in its 34th season, the Series is a nationally renowned literary showcase that has presented the world's leading writers in Houston—more than 300 since 1980, including winners of seven Nobel Prizes, 56 Pulitzer Prizes, 53 National Book Awards, 44 National Book Critics Circle Awards, and 12 Man Booker Prizes, as well as 17 U. S. Poets Laureate—at the city's top downtown performance venues and at almost no cost to the public.
Another reading series, Cool Brains! Inprint Readings for Young People, which presents the nation's top middle-grade writers in Houston free of charge, was officially added to Inprint programs in 2007. Working closely with school districts and libraries throughout the greater Houston area, Cool Brains! provides a way for young readers and their families and teachers to meet their favorite authors and build a lifelong love of reading and writing. To date, Cool Brains! has presented 24 of the most acclaimed and beloved children's writers, focusing on readers ages eight to 12.
Throughout the 1990s, other Inprint literary performance programs enriched Houston's cultural life. Inprint's Literary Conversations, from 1993 to 2000, presented major writers and other artists speaking on poetry, fiction, playwriting, the personal essay, biography and memoir, science writing, and music and literature, in collaboration with many other Houston arts organizations. From 1995 to 2003, Inprint collaborated with Brazos Bookstore and other arts and cultural groups on a number of marathon readings featuring dozens of community members reading aloud and celebrating such great works as Dante's Inferno, Joyce's Ulysses, Beowulf, Ernest Gaines's A Lesson Before Dying, Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, the poetry of Walt Whitman, and Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey.
In fall 2006, Inprint launched a Studio Series, featuring emerging writers from across the country in public readings and community outreach events. Each of these writers also held conferences with graduate students at the UH CWP, providing valuable mentoring at a time when the faculty was short-handed. Eight writers took part in the Studio Series over two years. The program was discontinued due to the success of faculty hiring at UH.
Inprint's literary educational programs play a key role in developing a community of writers in Houston, today offering more than 35 writing workshops per year that serve the general public, senior citizens, K-12 teachers, at-risk children, and others with intensive writing instruction. Inprint's Writers Workshops, named Houston's "best place for aspiring writers" by the Houston Press, have since 1991 provided local writers with 8-10 week workshops that help them to hone their skills and prepare work for publication, in workshops led by published writers, including many alumni of and students in the UH CWP. Limited to 12, the Inprint Writers Workshops provide an invaluable and intensive workshop experience. In conjunction with the workshops, Inprint also offered The Business of Writing, from 1996 to 2002, a one-day conference presenting several of the nation's leading editors, agents, and writers, designed to provide aspiring writers with an understanding of how to get their work published.
Inprint's After-School Youth Writing Residency Workshop was founded by a UH CWP student in 1995, and has been offered at Project Row Houses, SHAPE Community Center, and Finnigan Park Community Center, providing an invaluable after-school activity free of charge for community schoolchildren.
Since 1996, Inprint Memoir Workshops for Senior Citizens have provided senior citizens from across Houston with an activity that revives memories, preserves family and community histories, and gives seniors a vital sense of accomplishment and self-worth. Offered at senior centers in different parts of the city, from the north side and Fifth Ward to the east end and the southwest side, these year-round workshops led by community writers and UH CWP alumni/students and culminate each year with the publication of an anthology of the participants' work and a community celebration.
Inprint's Teachers-as-Writers Workshops were founded in 1997 to fill a gap in teacher training, providing poetry, fiction, and nonfiction workshops that sharpen the skills of K-12 teachers. These free 8-10 week workshops, which serve 75 teachers per year from throughout the Houston area, are predicated on the idea that better writers make better writing teachers. Teachers learn new techniques for the classroom. The workshops also are personally enriching, which aids in retention and helps teachers to keep their creative juices flowing.
After exploring possible collaborations with the medical community in Houston, Inprint established Life Writing Workshops at Houston Methodist Hospital in spring 2007. These workshops, led by UH CWP graduate students and alumni, serve employees at Houston Methodist at all levels, from doctors to orderlies to the lobby pianist. This program is a model of exceptional, meaningful, and innovative workforce development. The interdisciplinary approach embraced in the workshops, combining healthcare and creative writing, provides uncommon opportunities for professional and personal enrichment.
In 2008, Inprint established the Inprint Poetry Buskers Program, which sends poets with typewriters to various festivals and events throughout the greater Houston area. The buskers write poems-on-demand free of charge on topics chosen by the recipient, taking poetry literally out to the streets and inspiring the public with spontaneous poetic whimsy, creativity, and skill. Buskers are primarily students and alumni of the UH CWP. Look for the Inprint Poetry Buskers at a public event in your area soon.
Inprint's programs, events, and educational activities have achieved recognition in Houston and beyond. According to the late Pulitzer Prize winning novelist John Updike, "The good folks of Houston should be grateful to have such an institution operating in their midst." Edward Hirsch, president of the Guggenheim Foundation, speaks to Inprint's value and uniqueness: "Inprint gives a kind of center to literary life in Houston, with its tentacles going out in different directions. . . . I don't think there is anything like Inprint in the country, and I've been to a lot of cities. Believe me, I'd like to find it." Inprint was twice ranked #1 in the Texas Commission on the Arts competition for literary grants, and received a TCA Star Award for excellence in marketing. For more than a decade, Inprint has received national endorsement in the form of a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. The Inprint Margarett Root Brown Reading Series, Inprint Writers Workshops, and Cool Brains! Inprint Readings for Young People have been voted "Best of Houston" by the Houston Press on several occasions; H-Texas magazine chose Inprint Writers Workshops as the city's "best adult education program," and the Houston Chronicle singled out Cool Brains! for bringing the "superstars of children's and young-adult literature to town, making it a truly cool addition to the literary scene."
Today, Inprint is at the center of Houston's vibrant literary community, serving more than 14,000 people annually and presenting and championing diverse programming for readers and writers throughout the area. For more than three decades, it has enriched the city's intellectual capital and made the literary world accessible to all Houstonians. Click here to learn more.

Rovers superfan Alan 'Birdy' Birkbeck was one of the night's big winners at the MBNA Northwest Football Awards in Manchester.
Birdy, who has devoted his entire life to the club, was presented with the Unsung Hero award by Rovers' managing director Derek Shaw.
The 65-year-old, who lives just a stone's throw away from Ewood Park, was hoping to go up on stage to collect the Best Club Sponsorship/Marketing & Engagement award for the part he played in the #birdysdate promotional home kit launch video, so was shocked to scoop another accolade.
"I came here hoping to get a different award for the club and this is beyond my wildest dreams," he said. "I never expected this.
"I have followed Rovers all my life and this club is my life. We have had good times and bad times, but I think we are coming back."
Also on the night, former Rovers manager Kenny Dalglish, who guided the club to the Premiership title 20 years ago this season, received the Lifetime Contribution award, whilst former Rovers youngster Joe Garner bagged a brace – winning the Goal of the Year and League One Player of the Year awards.

About New Mexico
With its deserts, canyons, big skies and traditional adobe buildings, New Mexico, deep in the south-west, can feel very different to the rest of the United States. Together with its attractive climate - and summers can be very hot - lack of crowds and friendly relaxed cities, it's not surprising that it has earned the name 'The Land of Enchantment'. When selecting our best places to stay in New Mexico, we've looked for hotels that will give you an authentic taste of this very individual state.
Outdoors-lovers will head to the southern regions. Here you can go hiking or climbing amongst the Organ Mountains, which rise to 9000 feet and are dotted with spectacular waterfalls and volcanoes. They lie to the east of the Rio Grande, famed for its hot springs and modern spas. Here you'll also find the Gila National Forest, a huge wilderness criss-crossed with hiking and cycling trails, and the alien-looking White Sands National Monument. The latter look uncannily like a mass of sand dunes but are, in fact, vast outcrops of gypsum.
Close to the Rio Grande is where the world's first commercial space flight is due to launch. Until then, you can visit the Very Large Array, a mass of radio telescopes constantly searching the universe for alien life. Those interested in extraterrestrials must visit the town of Roswell and you'll discover, amongst other kooky things, a UFO Museum; it was near here that a UFO supposedly landed in 1947. Silver City is another attractive city with a friendly, hip atmosphere and famed for its brewpubs and summer music festivals.
Other cities include Albuquerque with its Indian Pueblo Cultural Centre, and, of course, the capital Santa Fé nestling at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. At 7000 feet, it's the country's highest state capital. Highlights include the traditional adobe buildings - some dating back to the 17th century - Georgia O'Keeffe art museum, and the central Plaza with its food vendors, street musicians and Pueblo Indians selling jewellery and pottery. The city will intoxicate with its laidback atmosphere, mix of cultures and friendliness. Use our guide to the best places to stay in New Mexico to plan a trip around this oft-overlooked state.
The best foodie hotels in New Mexico
- In one of Santa Fé's prime locations, on the city's central plaza, the elegant La Fonda offers romantic al fresco dining as well as cookery lessons at the city's acclaimed School of Cooking. There's an outdoor pool and rooftop bar, too.
- The quirky Los Poblanos Historic Inn & Organic Farm, on the edge of Albuquerque, sits amongst farmland and lavender fields and cooks up tasty farm-to-fork meals.
The best hotels in New Mexico for authentic design
- In the heart of Santa Fé, the 37-room Rosewood Inn of the Anasazi - a former penitentiary - offers beamed rooms, adobe walls and craftsman-made furnishings including bright hand-woven carpets and traditional kiva fireplaces.
- Close to Santa Fé Plaza, The Inn of Five Graces is an exuberantly designed inn with traditional adobe walls, wildly colourful fabrics and richly furnished rooms. Exotic, romantic, fun.
The best hideaway hotels in New Mexico
- With glorious views over New Mexico landscapes from its natural 'mesa' (flat-topped hill), the Hacienda del Cerezo is a romantic hideaway with candle-lit dinners, infinity pool, understatedly luxurious rooms and private terraces. All of this - plus purebred Arabian horses - yet Santa Fé is only 40 minutes' drive.

At the 'National Convention on Less Cash India', a summit organized by Confederation of All India Traders ( CAIT) at Constitution Club, New Delhi between December 2-3, 2016, unanimously resolved to intensify adoption of digital payments in their existing business format. It is a step forward in the direction of GST taxation system. A digital payment system/ electronic payment is one of the core fundamental of GST regime-said CAIT.
More than 300 trade leaders from 26 States of the Country attended the two days Summit. The CAIT has also released a White Paper on adoption of Digital Payments.While addressing the Summit, Mr. Ramesh Abhishek, Secretary, DIPP emphasized that merchants and traders are at the forefront of demonetization effort and called for meaningful engagement and incentives to aid businesses in digital adoption, "The Government has been on the forefront of enabling a less cash economy. The move to incentivize cashless transactions and drive acceptance through installation of point of sale (POS) machines, low cost acceptance infrastructure, and rationalization of merchant discount rate will enable the movement further."
Speaking at the Summit,CAIT Secretary General Mr. Praveen Khandelwal said, "We are well aware that India is traditionally a cash-based economy, with the value of physical currency in circulation estimated to be over 11 per cent of GDP, highest in 16 years and within BRICS nations. China has seen a steady decrease in the ratio over the last 16 years (now at roughly 9 per cent), with Russia to be at 9 per cent and Brazil to be at 3 per cent. Before we embarked on this campaign with our partner global technology solutions leader Mastercard, we did some research and found that India stood at just 10 per cent of population doing cashless transactions with specific reference to Sweden (97 per cent), Belgium (93 per cent), France (92 per cent), Canada (90 per cent), UK 89 (per cent)."
CAIT National President Mr. B.C.Bhartia said that India has one of the lowest card swiping machine numbers per capita, worldwide. Data indicates it has some 690-odd terminals per ten lakh people. Even among emerging economies this is very low, with China having some 4,000 terminals per ten lakh people and Brazil having almost 33,000 terminals per ten lakh population. Most of these 690-odd terminals, over 70 per cent, are located across 14-15 cities in the country. Hence, over 75 per cent of cashless transactions are reported from these 15-odd cities. All this helped CAIT realise that similar to how digital payments evolved in other parts of the world, it was surely bound to create the same effect if promoted in a holistic way-said Mr. Bhartia.
Now with over 150 seminars, conferences, round-tables and workshops in over 30 cities across different states reaching out to over 20 lakh traders to promote the adoption of electronic payments by the trading community, CAIT is committed to work with each and every constituent of its fraternity in navigating through the transition to "Less Cash India.The CAIT has already launched a Less Cash Roadmap making it the second most credible document after RBI's Vision 2018 document for promoting digital payments in India. Over the course of 2 years now and more recently, CAIT has seen success of its recommendations made to various stakeholders within the government which are largely a part of our Less Cash Manifesto launched last week.

There are many websites are running on WordPress. As you know that WordPress is the most powerful content management system (CMS), there are high chances that hackers can attack on the websites which are running on the WordPress. So if you are having website on WordPress platform then you must be worried about its security. Due to the popularity of the WordPress platform, some hacker tries to attack on this platform. So you need to take some steps by which you can prevent from this attacks. The most common type of attack is brute force attack. In this attack, the hacker will apply random combination of username and password on your login page unless and until he gets desired result. WordPress comes with default login URL. So by changing this default login URL with custom login URL, we can save our website from any attack.
During the process of WordPress installation, WordPress creates two default URLs for login. These URLs are
- wp-admin.php
- wp-login.php
I am sure that you must be using one from the above-mentioned URLs. So every person who has knowledge on WordPress must know that what the login URL is. So there are chances that hackers can attack on your website using this URL. But if you change this default URL to custom login URL then only you know the login URL. So it may happen that attacker do not know the login URL and by this way you can make his work tough.
Why you need Custom Login URL?
1. Prevent against brute force attack
Brute force attack is very common type of security attack. In this attack, the attackers try to crack your security via login page. The main aim of this type of attack is to take control over the admin area of the website. To do this hacker needs the below mention things:
- Login URL: This is the URL by which he can enter into WordPress dashboard. You can create custom login URL to prevent from attack.
- Username: You should not choose the username as admin, administrator or root because it is very easy to guess.
- Password: You must set very difficult password for login.
2. To hide the use of WordPress
By creating custom login URL, you can hide the use of WordPress. Attackers cannot easily know the backend of your website. But this is not that much accurate. There are many tools and methods available by which anyone can check the backend of any website. But by creating custom login URL, you are creating more problems for attackers.
Read More: How to check whether the website is built with WordPress?
So now you should have basic understanding on why should you change default login URL. So let's see how you can change the default login URL and how you can create your custom login URL in WordPress.
How to create custom login URL?
There are many plugins available in WordPress which will reduce our work. To create custom login URL, we also can use many plugins. We will see one such plugin in this post. I will explain each and every step by which you can configure this plugin. You can use any of the plugin.
WPS Hide Login Plugin: This is very lightweight plugin which allows you to create custom login URL. This plugin will not delete default URL. It just makes them inaccessible so all the users will access the admin area via new URL. If you want to use the default login URL then you need to delete this plugin.
To activate this plugin go to plugins–>Add New–>Search for WPS Hide Login. This will be the first plugin when you search for it. Install this plugin and then activate this plugin.
Once you hit activate button you are not able to access the default login URL. This plugin will block default login URL which are wp-login.php and wp-admin.php. The default URL by this plugin is www.domainname.com/login. So if you locked out then you can use this URL to access login area. Once you change this default URL and create your custom login URL, you need to remember it. If you forgot it then you cannot be able to access your dashboard. So once you changed your login URL, write down the new URL somewhere. So if you forgot URL, you can see it from your note.
Now to create desired URL, you need to go to settings–>general. In general setting, go to the end of the screen. At this place you must be able to see WPS hide login section. In the blank field of that section, write your desired URL and then hit the save changes button.
So now, you have changed the default login URL to custom login URL. Now logout from your admin area and try to access the new URL. Hopefully, now you will be able to login with new URL. If you try to access old URLs then they will show page not found error (404).
So by this way, you are able to change the default login URL. Now, remember this new custom login URL and use it to access your admin area.
Over to You
There are many ways by which you can hide the default URL and use of WordPress. By these ways, we cannot prevent from attacks 100%. We only can make these attacks tough for any hackers. To prevent from any attacks totally, we need to use some paid tools and services. Along with those tools, you should use secure and reliable hosting. The above-mentioned method is very easy and it takes 2 to 3 minutes to configure the plugin. So do apply this method and see the result.
If you like this post then shares it with your friends and helps them to create custom login URL and prevent from any attacks. I would like to hear your views on this new URL. So feel free to comment.

Record-shattering 5,000 megawatt & 2,500 megawatt solar projects get green light in Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir
The largest solar power plant in the world is a California project 550 megawatts (MW) in size. Dwarfing that, the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir has just given the green light to a 5,000 MW solar project and a 2,500 MW solar project. Granted, these projects will likely be composed of many separate solar power plants. Nonetheless, 7,500 MW is about three-fourths of the entire solar power capacity in the United States at the end of the 3rd quarter of 2013.
These solar projects totaling 7,500 MW add on to a 4,000 MW solar "ultra mega" project that recently received a memorandum of understanding in another Indian state, Rajasthan. Again, a little simple math shows that these three projects together would have a power capacity surpassing all the solar power installed in the US. Staggering.
Nonetheless, this doesn't come as a great surprise. India is looking to provide electricity to hundreds of millions of people currently without it in the coming years, and solar is already cheaper than diesel power there. Trying to avoid the construction of inflexible, dirty, expensive, centralized power plants (nuclear & coal power plants), India is jumping right into the clean energy age. As I discussed in an interview for CNBC and Harvard Business Review's "Energy Opportunities" series a few years ago, just as people in developing nations leapfrogged past landlines into the cellular age, they will leapfrog past 20th-century power plants into the wind and solar age.
In a meeting of senior officials, a memorandum of understanding was signed for the Jammu and Kashmir solar projects. The 5,000 MW project is planned for Ladakh, while the 2,500 MW one is planned for Kargil.
Located in the Himalayas, MNRE Union minister Farooq Abdullah said at the meeting that Ladakh could easily host 30,000 MW of solar power capacity! So, 5,000 is just an appetizer.
I imagine this solar power leadership would make the locals happy... as if little Ladakh girls like this one need anything else to make them smile:

A recent commentary in the Mercury is critical of the concept of putting a civic museum in a building the city does not own. The writer compares it to building a swimming pool in your neighbours backyard. Personally, that sounds like a great deal.
The business case for adaptive re-use of the convent for a museum is quite brilliant. To use the swimming pool analogy: if I was planning to build a pool anyway, and my neighbour was not using his backyard, and he offered me full and exclusive use of his yard for three generations of my family, at a token $1 year cost, I would take up the offer in a millisecond. I would keep my own yard open for a garden and greenspace, and in effect, double my useable yard space with my neighbours blessing and support.
The convent is an empty building. The financial and environmental cost to demolish is significant (up to 1/3 of Ontario landfills contain demolition waste). The Diocese has no future planned use for the site and has offered it to the City for use as a civic museum for a nominal cost. They were not strong-armed – they fully understand the beneficial synergies that would come from this partnership. The current museum is bursting at the seams and will be moving forward to secure a new site at some point within the next five years. To buy or lease a new building at market value would be costly. A long-term lease with the Diocese (ie.50-100) years removes this expense.
If Council failed to act to secure the Convent site, the cost to relocate the museum will not disappear, it would just be deferred into the future. Past councils have done this with a number of capital projects which had led to a huge backlog of community needs – main branch library, south end firehall, civic administration centre, etc.
Losing the Convent would mean the City would have to relocate the museum by purchasing or leasing another building at market value. In order to meet the museums future needs, they will need a building twice the size of the current facility, at an estimated cost of $1,000,000. Leasing the convent for an estimated $2 per year means that million dollars can be spent on other things or invested.
I share the concerns expressed about the number of capital projects on the horizon. Guelph cannot lose its AA financial rating. But we cannot continue to defer capital projects in perpetuity. Our city as a whole suffers when we fail to act on identified needs. We must prioritize our projects carefully in order to finance them effectively – and we will do this.
If you haven't been to visit our Civic Museum lately, I encourage you to drop by the facility on the corner of Dublin and Waterloo and experience this community gem.
Please add your comments.

A tenant of the Christian faith is that Jesus will return to earth to usher in the next age, where the earth in its current state will be destroyed an re-created as a new earth. A well-known text in both Christian theology and popular culture is Revelation 21:1, "I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away."
Some Christians believe that because of the end of the world is near, there is no need for conservation. It is permissible, in their minds, to rob the earth of natural resources without any thought to the preservation the environment for future generations.
However, this paradigm is not supported by the Bible. I believe the Bible lays out a clear case for why we need to conserve resources, even if the world ends soon. Below are four principles which advocate for an environmentally friendly, conservation approach to taking care of our home, the earth.
Principle 1: The Earth is the Lord's
Numerous texts state the true ownership of the earth: it belongs to God.
- Psalm 24:1 The earth is the Lord's, with its fullness; the world, and those who dwell therein.
- Colossians 1:16-17 For by him all things were created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
- Leviticus 25:23 The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and live as foreigners with me.
Principle 2: We are God's Stewards/Caretakers
Logical follows that if the earth and everything in it belongs to God, our position is to care for what has been entrusted to us.
- Genesis 2:15 The Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.
- Genesis 1:26 God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
- Jeremiah 2:7 I brought you into a plentiful land, to eat its fruit and its goodness; but when you entered, you defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.
Principle 3: Learn From Nature
Several verses specifically call on us to learn from nature. How can we learn from the natural world if it is destroyed?
- Job 12:7-10 But ask the animals, now, and they shall teach you; the birds of the sky, and they shall tell you. Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach you. The fish of the sea shall declare to you. Who doesn't know that in all these, the Lord's hand has done this, in whose hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind?
- 1 Chronicles 16:33 Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth.
- Matthew 6:26, 28 See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they? Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin.
Principle 4: Use Only What You Need
Perhaps a more controversial principle, do not use resources to excess. In the mid nineteenth century, the buffalo was almost hunted to extinction in the United States. Thousand of pelts were shipped to the eastern, more industrialized part of the United States for use as belts in machinery, clothes, and decoration.
- Numbers 35:33-34 So you shall not pollute the land in which you are; for blood pollutes the land. No atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, but by the blood of him who shed it. You shall not defile the land which you inhabit, in the middle of which I dwell; for I, the Lord, dwell in the middle of the children of Israel.
- Ezekiel 34:18 Does it seem a small thing to you to have fed on the good pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture? and to have drunk of the clear waters, but you must foul the residue with your feet?
- Deuteronomy 20:19 When you shall besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, you shall not destroy its trees by wielding an ax against them; for you may eat of them. You shall not cut them down; for is the tree of the field man, that it should be besieged by you?

Reading and Writing
So a deadline sailed past me and I'm riding pretty high on the terror curve. I'm ostensibly coauthoring a chapter with my doctoral supervisor, but my imposter syndrome and procrastination monkey are ganging up on me.
I'm confident about my cognitive abilities; I know I can read and write well. It's the doing it, or not, that is doing me in. It's something I have to address, and soon. With a full-time job and a family that I want to be present for, I need to build some more sustainable habits.
It's not all doom and gloom, however, as I've been pretty good on this side of the ledger. I had a good workout on the weekend:
- Barbell squats: 72.5kg, 5/5/8
- Bench press: 47.5kg, 5/5/12
- Seated cable rows: a bunch
- Close-grip bench press: 40kg, 12/12/10
- Face pulls: a bunch
I've also been enjoying riding my new bike. The single speed can be hard work sometimes but somehow it's a lot more fun than a geared bike. I got a pair of clipless pedals and some snazzy shoes to go with them, which has made my pedaling a little more efficient.

Upcoming - Youkobo Art Space Tokyo - Artist in Residence
Over a year ago I applied for an Artist in Residence at Youkobo Art Space, Tokyo and was accepted for the month of March 2017. So now it's getting close to travel time - exciting!
I'm also thrilled to find out my recent RADF grant application to City of Gold Coast Council has been successful with support for residency at Youkobo Art Space Tokyo. With sincere thanks to Arts Queensland and City of Gold Coast for support through the RADF Germinate Program for Professional Development.
During the residency I'll be researching the '10 year project for Green Tokyo'. Tokyo has been increasing its urban tree canopy cover in the lead up to the 2020 Olympics. With greenery in urban areas assuming increasingly important roles - countering heat island effect, safeguarding against urban disasters and improving the liveability and sense of well-being for communities; the metropolis of Tokyo is an ideal location to share in discussion on this local/global issue.
You can read more about my residency plans on the Youkobo Art Space website.
If you would like to follow my travels around Tokyo and in the residence studio, I'll be posting images on my Instagram page.
The Regional Arts Development Fund is a partnership between the Queensland Government and the City of Gold Coast Council to support local arts and culture in regional Queensland.

Trees are the answer
It's taken me a couple of weeks to post an image of this Hoop Pine (Araucaria cunninghamii) tree, which I've observed on a neighbouring property since moving to our residence over a decade ago. Sadly the tree no longer stands after being cut down in a matter of ten minutes and crashing to the ground in an area of protected vegetation. The irony.
I don't understand.......because trees are the answer.

We have also begun operations as a third-party logistics (3PL)* business in China, using experience gained in Japan as a base. With the continuing globalization of production, in countries that are within a one-hour time-zone difference from Japan such as China, Taiwan and South Korea, Sagawa Global Logistics aims to provide general logistics support for the development of seamless international business for customers.

Thanks for joining me!
Almost 35, a husband, a daughter, a chronic condition that changed my life but it's not going to run my show.
It's time to stop, take a deep breath and take back my life. I'm giving myself the best gift you could ever get, Time to Heal. This is only possible because of my amazing husband that always supports my decisions and picks me up when I fall. My husband that actually taught me it's ok to fail but it's not ok to not try. My husband that has been with me in the ups and downs, from the very beginning. So I dedicate this new project (sharing my life in this blog) to him because he inspires me everyday to improve myself and fights for my right to be happy.
I'm also a mum of a 2 year old beautiful soul that can just about make few sentences (in loop all day long) but has been my rock since she was born or even since she was in my belly because I knew |I would never be alone again. I share a special connection with my baby that all my family always recognise. Just by looking into my eyes she gives me everyday the strenght to keep going, even when it's hard.
Of course I'm also a woman that likes clothes, make up , skin care but with an eye open for eco conscious choices. I'm trying my best to get better with my everyday decisions that affect my health and the enviroment. I'm very far from being perfect but Hey I'm trying.
Love cooking, travelling and talking to strangers.
So I guess this is what I will write about on this blog, my life. I hope I can get to meet other people that share the same interests that I do and learn from each other.
Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. — Izaak Walton

Propel's Winter '18 release is coming soon, and in addition to the new Training Records features I mentioned in my last blog post, I'm also very excited to announce our new Specification Management & Compliance capabilities. Propel's Specification Management & Compliance allows companies to keep track of product compliance to environmental specifications (such as RoHS, REACH, JEDEC, China RoHS, and conflict minerals) and other regulatory specifications.
Tracking compliance can be very time consuming and error prone, especially when the compliance to those specifications is dependent on hundreds or thousands of parts that make up a product. To ensure your products stay in compliance to regulations around the world, compliance managers and engineers need to quickly understand the impact of part changes on products in production. You also need to provide auditors with accurate and transparent data to reduce business interruption risk, as well as keep product and operational costs low. Best practices companies also have engineers review compliance information during the design phase, so that they can develop more compliant products at a lower cost.
Key Capabilities of Propel's Specification Management & Compliance
- Track compliance status to any specification on a manufacturer part or directly on an item
- Roll-up compliance statuses on a bill of materials (BOM). You can use worst case scenario when dealing with multiple manufacturer parts, or declare compliance status on a parent part to override the roll-up
- Apply specifications to Propel's item categories for even easier administration
- Declare compliance status through a declaration process, which allows multiple stakeholders to review compliance
- Keep records of status changes
- Apply specific exemptions to specifications
Just like Training Records, all Propel customers get these capabilities as part of their standard Propel license. Contact Propel Customer Success at firstname.lastname@example.com to get even more info and register for a customer-only webinar on October 25.
