There's more to publishing external APIs than choosing an API management vendor
Publishing a public API involves many considerations, from billing and metering through to documentation and on-boarding. These are likely to be addressed through a collection of solutions rather than a single all-singing, all-dancing API management platform.

Does "code quality" matter? Using SonarQube with legacy code bases

Don't Panic is a configurable "boss key", a simple tool which reduces the chance of others catching you playing games, browsing YouTube, or doing anything else you really shouldn't on your PC.
The program can instantly close or minimise up to three applications, launch other applications to take their place, delete shortcuts from the Recent Files folder, empty the Recycle Bin, even clear your Internet Explorer history.
None of this happens by default, and there's no wizard to talk you through the setup process. Instead you must click Tools > Options, explore the various tabs, and set them up as you require.
Still, this isn't difficult - it just means you might spend an extra 10 minutes adapting the program to suit your needs.
When it's all set up, clicking the Don't Panic button at any time (or using a hotkey) closes your game/ browser/ anything else, opens Word/ Excel/ whatever makes it look like you're actually working, and no-one will be any the wiser (hopefully).
Version 3.1.0 brings:
- Option for restricting the application to a single instance! (user request)
- Migrated manual to HelpNDoc and updated its content to match current functionality
- A little code cleanup
Don't Panic is fun, and surprisingly configurable, but don't rely on it too much. The program should make it harder for a family member to see which windows are open on your computer, but if you're misusing a work PC, and your boss gets someone technical to inspect it, they'll find out the truth with no problem at all.

Quench Your Thirst: Justin Bieber, Maluma & More Dare To Bare
This weekend, Justin Bieber and a group of fellow male pop stars posted thirst traps on Instagram. Colombian powerhouse Maluma kicked things off with a sweet but alluring photo alongside his dogs Bonnie and Clyde. The trio deliver smoldering good looks as they pose on an oversized bed. Unfortunately, the "Felices Los 4" crooner seems to have misplaced his shirt. Meanwhile, Liam Payne celebrated the end of a workout with a shirtless selfie. After all, exercise doesn't count if nobody knows you did it. The "Strip That Down" hitmaker amusing captioned his photo "#legday," despite the fact that his pins are nowhere to be seen.
Justin Bieber continued the sporty theme with his latest thirst trap. While Liam stripped it down after the gym, the "Despacito" singer took us right into the action — sharing a moment from a soccer match. While physical activity is always a valid excuse for minimal clothing, so is relaxation. Jason Derulo celebrated the first day of summer by cooling off in his pool and the "Swalla" hitmaker's abs were on full display.
Not to be outdone, Diplo shared a shirtless pic from the Glastonbury festival. "When they tell me the catering is still open," the producer wrote, obviously drooling at the thought of one more pass at the buffet line. Rounding out the list is DJ Khaled, who posed for a sweet pic alongside his adorable son Asahd Tuck Khaled. The "Wild Thoughts" hitmaker wished his followers Eid Mubarak in honor of the Muslim holiday. Check out all of the snaps.
Who laid the best thirst trap? Let us know below, or by hitting us up on Facebook and Twitter!

The media play a central role in most people's lives today. Public and private opinion depend far more on images now than ever before. Film in particular is a medium that makes possible communication on emotional and "perceptual" levels, thus encouraging people to reflect and change their views. To this end, ECOMOVE seeks to present films to a broad audience that are outstanding as regards content and aesthetics. At a time when images increasingly determine our daily lives, ECOMOVE endeavours to distribute artistically and politically sophisticated films and support filmmakers. The work of ECOMOVE is directed toward making as many viewers as possible aware of environmental and social issues, thereby promoting the process essential for societal change.
ECOMOVE pursues the following goals:
- improving the quality and quantity of environmental audio-visual productions; promoting the free, world-wide distribution of environmental media
- opening up new markets for environmental media productions; increasing the demand for environmental films and new productions
- promoting the use of environmental audio-visual productions in education and training
- emphasizing solutions for environmental problems rather than dwelling on pessimistic prognoses
ECOMOVE focuses on ecology / environmental policy. The term "environment" is broadly understood to include economical and socio-cultural aspects as well as global justice issues. ECOMOVE is therefore committed to sustainable development.

Tarot spread: 4 Quadrant spread
1 | 2
3 | 4
Integral theory's quadrants model readily lends itself to tarot. A lot has been written about the quadrants, so this will be a very brief overview.
What are the 4 Quadrants?
The quadrants are a way of looking at any person, event, or situation in terms of four key aspects:
• Individual & Collective — everything is both an individual and part of a group
• Interior & Exterior — everything has an inner, subjective aspect and an outer, objective aspect.
Putting these four together allows us to look at a comprehensive snapshot of any subject of a tarot reading:
That's great, but how do I interpret the cards?
Here's one way to describe the quadrants, in terms of reading this spread for a person:
- Upper Left: Individual Interior
Keyword: Awareness
The person's subjective experience and development, including awareness, sense of self, consciousness, and psychological and spiritual development. How does this person feel? What does she value? What is he aware of?
- Upper Right: Individual Exterior
Keyword: Behavior
The person's objective physicality and behavior. Anything that can be measured, cut open and observed, and seen by others directly. What does this person look like? How healthy is he? What is she doing, how does she behave?
- Lower Left: Collective Interior
Keyword: Culture
The person's cultural situation, including interpersonal life, relationships in terms of group dynamics, shared values and meaning, conflicts. What culture does this person come from? How are his values shaped by those around him? What are the power dynamics?
- Lower Right: Collective Exterior
Keyword: Systems/Environment
The person's social and environmental situation, including home, neighborhood, job, pollution, economy, etc. Where does this person live? In what type of society? Does he have a a suburban home or a grass hut? Does he drive a car on paved roads or ride pack animals on dirt roads? What is the government like that she lives under? What kinds of institutions does his society have?
Four aspects of one thing
All of these four aspects arise together and impact one another. Some examples:
- Relationship trouble in the lower left (interior collective) might show up as unhappines in the upper left (my individual feelings), aggressiveness or withdrawal in the upper right (my behavior), and fights with my spouse in the lower right (my social reality).
- A person undergoing psychotherapy and seeing positive results could be reflected as both forward movement in the upper left (my individual psychology) and smarter behavior in the upper right (what I do differently as a result of my upper left development).
- Conflicts between two or more quadrants: if I'm an arrogant donkey, my upper left may look very positive (the way I see myself) but my lower left may look the opposite (others see me negatively and so my relationships are a mess).
What about subjects that aren't people?
It can be tricky when learning the quadrants to apply them to subjects other than people. For example, we're not used to thinking of objects as having an interior.
- Upper left: from a shamanic or psychic perspective, the object's "spirit" or "identity". In aesthetics, the aspect of beauty that is "in" the object rather than culturally constructed.
- Upper right: the object's physical construction and condition. What is it made out of? What are its properties (physical, chemical, etc)? How old is it? Is it well kept or in disrepair?
- Lower left: what the object means in culture, either its culture of origin or the culture it's in now. Is it a sacred item? Was it a sacred item in the past, but now it's simply a cultural or scientific curiosity? Does it have sentimental value?
- Lower right: how and where the object is actually being used or disused. Where is the object? Who and what is around it? How is it used or not used? Is the environment or use appropriate to this object?
In the case of a stolen car, the right hand quadrants might be more helpful: upper right corresponds to the car's current condition, lower right corresponds to the car's environment and where it is right now.
- Upper left: what's the feel of the event (the "vibe" or energy of the occasion)? Full of positive feelings and life like a party? Serious and focused like a good business meeting? Chaotic and unproductive like a bad business meeting? Dour and emotional like a funeral?
- Upper right: what happened or is happening? If a scientist observed the event, what would she be able to see, detect, measure, or describe? Who is there? What do they do and not do?
- Lower left: what is the meaning of this event? How do the people, organizations, and events in relationship to this event feel about it? For example, while the upper left aspect of a political event might be very conservative, serious, and straightforward, the lower left might include controversy, protest, and some chaos.
- Lower right: what is the context of this event? Where does it occur? How does it fit into the social systems around it? What is its environment and how does it relate to its environment? If anthropologists from another planet observed this event what could they say about it in terms of the big picture of society?
What would you like to know now?
Thanks for reading! I know from my own experience learning the four quadrants model (and I'm still learning!) that it's not always easy. But this is a valuable spread, and worth the effort.
What questions are you left with? What parts of this post could be more clear? Please tell me below in the comments!
Did you try this spread? How did it work for you? When you try this spread, I would love to hear about it. Please feel free to post experiences/readings below as well.

>I guess what I'm looking for is --- is there a good, positive

I have a colleague who uses WHERE 1 = 1 all the time.
I asked him why some years ago.
It was because as he tuned or modified statements, he got tired of re-arranging the WHERE and AND clauses all the time. By starting off with WHERE 1 = 1, all the clauses that he would be re-arranging started with AND, so it saves him some bother.
Best reason I've heard so far.

The Haiti-Maine Diocesan Committee is appointed by the Bishop for the purpose of overseeing the partnership between Maine and Haiti. The Committee has a small Steering Committee which is responsible for partnership giving, non-partnership giving, and administrative duties. These committee members keep in touch with their counterparts in Haiti both on Bishop Duracin's staff and in the field. Both the Steering Committee and the General membership meet 3 or 4 times yearly. All interested persons are welcome to attend our general meetings.
For more information contact Karin Draper at or . Or Sarah Danser at .
History of the Maine-Haiti connection
At a time when the bonds that unite the Anglican communion are being tested, the phenomena of Companion Diocese Relationships is a way to remind us that ultimately our community is one of persons, more than institutions. What the Companion Diocese Program seeks to do is to foster enthusiasm for ministry and sharing between linked dioceses. Although we are often tempted to think of the relationship as merely a financial partnership, but it is really broader than that. Companionship goes beyond mere cultural exchange to remind us that we are one body of Christ.
The connection between Maine and Haiti began with conversations between our Bishop, Chilton Knudsen and the Bishop of Haiti, the Rt. Rev. Jean-Zache Duracin. In bringing us together both bishops responded to several unlikely similarities between our two dioceses We are both predominantly rural areas, dependent on agronomy and sustainable use of natural resources for survival. We are both places in which the French language and culture have a part. And although on somewhat different scales, we are communities in which people struggle to find work and to feed, house and clothe themselves and their families.
Haiti remains the least-developed country in the Western Hemisphere. About 80% of the population lives in abject poverty, making it the second poorest country in the world. Environmental issues such as deforestation and soil erosion are at crisis levels. Only 47% of the population has access to potable drinking water. At least 50 % of Haitians are illiterate. 2/3 the population cannot be described as having any sort of regular employment. Infant mortality rates in Haiti are the highest in the hemisphere. Approximately 60% the population does not have access to primary health care, more than half do not have access to medication, 76% of all births occur without medical attention, and only one child out of two is completely vaccinated. 24,000 people a year die of AIDS in this country of 8 million. Tuberculosis and intestinal diseases are major cause of mortality. The average life span is 52, keeping in mind that the average age in Haiti is 18. Millions of children live on the streets or in institutions, orphaned or abandoned by families who cannot care for them.
Sources for Statistics:
What is the Haiti-Maine Committee?
- Parish Partnerships matching individual parishes to form long-term relationships
- Outreach and Education Members of the Haiti-Maine Committee will speak to your parish, small group or outreach committee about opportunites to get involved. For more information contact Peter Jenks or Sarah Danser,
- Travel to Haiti to help with medical missions, teaching English, support for building projects, hospitals, orphanages, feeding programs, summer Bible camps, health education and more.
- Visits from Haitians to share music, culture and ministry; for continuing education, to educate Americans about Haiti and raise funds for ministry.
- Presence at Diocesan Events such as Convention and Convocations.
- Haitian Art Sales that support indigenous artists and raise money for partnerships and projects.
- Participation in Haiti Connection conferences that bring together Haitian lay people and clergy with Episcopalians from all over the United States who are active in ministry with Haitians.
Sending Money to Haiti
Please fill out the form linked below, save a copy for your records, and mail with your check to the Diocese at 143 State St., Portland, ME 04101.
To insure that monies arrive safely and are distributed correctly, it is essential that we have certain information on file. Please be sure that you complete a Haiti Donation Form for each transaction that the Diocesan Finance Office is processing for you.
The Partnership Program of the Diocese of Haiti is funded by a tithe of all donations received through the program. This tithe is the only source of support for this critical program. Therefore, even if you are transferring your Partnership donation through other approved secure means, it is necessary that you submit the tithe, with Donation Form, to our Finance Office.
The mission of the Haiti-Maine Committee is:
- prayer
- mutual understanding
- sharing of spiritual and material resources
- and the companionship of visiting one another
and to promote an awareness of and solidarity with the Episcopal Church in Haiti by providing information an educational materials to congregations in Maine.
Maine churches partnered with Haiti churches now number 14
Three more churches have been formally partnered with churches in the Diocese of Haiti, bringing the total of such partnerships within the Diocese of Maine to 14. The three new partnered churches are Christ Church, Gardiner; St. Margaret's, Belfast; and St. Mark's, Waterville. They are respectively linked with St. James Church, Morne Rosette; St. Stephen's Church and School, Limonade; and Christ King Church and School, Terrier Rouge. Christ Church will help with nutrition programs and scholarships for the children at the school in Port-de- Paix.
St Margaret's, Belfast, also hopes to help its new partner with scholarships. St Mark's has revised its weekly prayers of the people to include Christ King and Fr. Bernier, and awaits word from him as to the church and school's most urgent needs. All three Maine churches rejoice in the spiritual enrichment that will come from walking together over time with the people they will come to know in their partner churches and regions.

Social Workers and Historical Knowledge of Addictions
This content was COPIED from BrainMass.com - View the original, and get the already-completed solution here!
The historical perspective of addiction is often not considered when providing treatment. For this discussion:
- Briefly provide a historical overview of the way addiction has been approached in the past.
- How do you think a therapist might best use this historical perspective to serve the needs of clients presenting with addictive and compulsive behavior?
- What do you see as a key factor or reason to impart such knowledge of history?
Solution Preview
This discussion will examine addiction issues, beginning with a historical account of this topic, and then working towards a social worker's therapeutic relationship with a client living with addiction. We are asked to consider the following:
How might a therapist incorporate a historical knowledge of addiction into their practice?
Will a social worker possessing this historical framework be able to assist their client with addictive and compulsive behaviors?
What are the key reasons for imparting this historical knowledge, if any?
I believe there is merit in breaking down questions into more manageable and digestible segments. This topic can be further broken down and organized in the subsequent manner:
• Brief History of Drug use
• History-- different beliefs, societal value and judgment of drug use
• Treatment then and now
• How might a therapist use the historical knowledge to assist?
• Key factors or reason to utilize this knowledge.
Brief History of Drug Use
People have tried and used medicinal drugs in one form or another for thousands of years. Wines were consumed be the early Egyptians; narcotics from 4000 B.C.E.; and the therapeutic introduction of marijuana from around 2737 B.C.E. in Asian countries.
In the last two centuries, we have witnessed the active chemical substances in medicines being identified and removed. From there we see many of these substances—for example cocaine—unregulated and liberally supplied liberally by medical professionals for a wide selection of conditions.
History of different beliefs, societal value and judgment of drug use
The word 'addiction' has a centuries-old history. An addict is a person having the need to act out with any ...
Solution Summary
The solution addresses the idea of whether or not a social worker, with a historical knowledge of addictions, can and should incorporate this knowledge into their practice. A brief overview of the treatment and stigma addicts have faced over time is provided. From there the question of how and why a social worker may use this information is posted.

Suits star and soon-to-be-royalty Meghan Markle (okay, so that may be a tad presumptuous) is what you'd call a "natural beauty." Gorgeous features, classic style, and never too too made up, the 35-year-old actor's usual look is characterized by glowing skin, prominent freckles, and sultry eye makeup in earthy tones.
Her makeup artist Min Min Ma recently gave the world a glimpse into the process, as well as the collection of products she uses to achieve the look on Prince Harry's flame.
"Meghan has naturally gorgeous skin, so I do very light skin makeup to ensure her freckles remain visible and [use] a bit of under-eye concealing," Ma told E!. "Also, I try to use as little face powder as [possible] to ensure her skin is looking glowy at all times."
So that's the strategy, less is more for Markel. Here are the products Ma uses:
First she preps the star's eyes with some soothing oil serum from Decleor.
Then it's a pair of G.M Collin's Instant Radiance Eye Patches, which she uses to "catch shadow fallout" before using any eye or skin makeup.
On Markle's body — including her incredible legs — Ma uses a nourishing body cream "for a moisturizing and glowy effect."
To enhance her complexion, it's a tiny bit of Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua, which, truth be told, is already a staple in our makeup bag. Markle's shade is #50, but it's up to each woman to find what suits her skin tone.
That's touched up with an Yves Saint Laurent radiance boosting pen.
And, finally, Ma enhances Markle's naturally sun-kissed, radiant complexion by artfully applying some Jane Iredale bronzer in peaches and cream. Again, this may not be the shade for you, but it sure works on Markle.
All in all, it's a relatively simple process that creates a stunning effect on the actress. Maybe it'll work on you too. There's really only one way to find out.

To check if your aircraft is properly registered for operation in the National Airspace System as stated in the Federal Register on December 9, 2005, FR Doc. O5-23852:
Look up the aircraft's N-number.
- Review the aircraft description to make sure that it matches your aircraft.
- Review the name of the Registered Owner(s) and the registration address shown.
- Find the field labeled Status and note the status given for your aircraft.
- If the status shown is Valid, the name of the registered owner is correct, and the registration address is current, then the aircraft is properly registered.
- If the status shown is Valid but the address is not current, then you must update the address.
- If the status shown is In Question and the name of owner line lists Sale Reported, then the seller's registration is terminated. The aircraft may not be flown until the current owner makes application for registration.
- If the status shown is In Question and the name of owner line lists Registration Pending then the seller's registration is terminated, and an application has been made for registration. Registration is pending on the resolution of one or more outstanding requirements. The aircraft is eligible for operation in U.S. airspace during the 90 day temporary authority pending registration and any extension of this period, provided a copy of the filed application and any extensions are carried in the aircraft. Address outstanding registration requirements as expeditiously as possible.
You can also check the Document Index to see if recently mailed registration documents have arrived at the Aircraft Registration Branch. Arrival of registration documents in the Registry enables confirmation that application for registration has been made and temporary (pink-copy) operating authority is in effect. Processing registration documents related to a change in aircraft ownership averages 16 working days after their receipt.
If a question remains regarding the registration status of your aircraft, you may contact the Aircraft Registration Branch by e-mail or by telephone toll free at 1-866-762-9434.

In addition to giving $70,000 to support a family through their full stay at The Gatehouse, Dr. Angela Bowers and the Southlake Dermatology staff have committed to becoming Gatehouse Friends, walking along side the family as they journey through the Independent Life Program. Dr. Bowers and the staff will also offer all Gatehouse women & children free courses on skin care and make-up application, as well as provide select skin treatments.
Click "play button" in middle to watch.
KLIF-AM Groundbreaking report
"An organization in Tarrant County will soon be offering some long-term housing to women trying to flee abusive relationships. Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price says The Gatehouse will offer counseling and education other shelters lack. "Often times they are bumped into a home of their own or an apartment of their own and their children are tossed into school and left to go on their own resources and that doesn't work," Price said. The facility will cover 61 acres of land on the northwest corner of DFW airport and should be open next fall. Residents there will have the ability to stay for up to two and a half years."
KXAS (NBC) Groundbreaking report
Today, construction crews will start building a new shelter for women and children in Grapevine. The Gatehouse will offer a supportive home for families in crisis. The community includes a free independent life program to get women on their feet. It will open on Stone Meyer Parkway.

Sweetwater Cafe
Do you know about the hidden gem inside the Ho-Chunk Center? A place that can cater to all your caffeine and hunger needs? Located on the second floor of the Ho-Chunk Center, Sweetwater Cafe is here to help! We got a chance to sit down and talked with Kim Davis about her views on running a business in Downtown Sioux City.
If you were to explain your business in two sentences or less, what would you want to say?
"We are a coffee shop located on the second floor of the Ho-Chunk Center who cater to Downtown Businesses, and also has skywalk availability."
What makes your business unique?
"Our most unique feature is the skywalk availability, as well as how close we are to the Sioux City Academy. This allows us the opportunity to meet people of all ages and all business professions."
How did you get started in this business? What keeps you around?
"I used to own Meet Virginia on 4th Street a number of years ago. Then I moved out of Sioux City, which was until I got a call from Ho-Chunk asking if I would be interested in managing the coffee shop inside their building. I stay for the business and the people. I always loved a job where I got to interact with people every day as well as running a profession that I love and get to be creative with."
Tell us one fun fact about yourself that people Downtown might not already know!
"If you see someone running on the North side, it's probably me."
What is your favorite part about being in Downtown Sioux City?
"I would have to say watching the growth of Downtown! I have been around the business world in Siouxland for a number of years and watching the continuous growth, especially more recently, is inspiring and exciting."
If you could run Downtown Sioux City for a day, what would be your first order of business?
"I would find a way to lower leasing payments or give incentives to bring businesses downtown. I find rent to be over priced at times."Tags: Small Business Spotlights

In the previous parts, I told about how my direct selling journey had started in 1991 and also how the first network marketing company was established in Turkey. This week's part will cover the start of sales.
When we moved to our newly-renovated office, the first big event was the first opportunity meeting. Even though the products were at the customs, we still could not get hold of them. Despite this, we decided to hold the first meeting. Oriflame's highest strategical priority at that time was to expand before Avon did, not only in Turkey but also in all of Eastern Europe.
I have had clients who were just entering the direct selling industry. Almost in all cases, the question they ask me is, "Tell me, how did you find the first members?" Well, we all know the contact list that we have been preaching to the newcomers on the field. I followed the same route! The only difference was that since I was the General Manager, this list should not have composed of who had close ties to myself. And in time, I have witnessed many cases where the corporate managers do the opposite and each case have proved I was right in doing that.
I invited two of my wife's officemates, my assistant's aunt, our accountant's older sister, two people from the Swedish Trade Center in Istanbul. On a Saturday afternoon in April 1992, we held our first opportunity meeting with 18 attendees. For about one and a half hour, I told about the company, the concept and the products. They all were hearing about network marketing for the first time in their lives. At the end of the meeting, these network marketing pioneers of Turkey were offered to get their starter kits for free. I personally entered their application forms to the system one by one and archived their forms. These 18 people would be 100,000 in three years time!
Few days after our first opportunity meeting we received the products from the customs. We were ready to start selling ten weeks after I was hired. We phoned our founding members and told they could now start earning. The same day at noon time, one of our first distributors came to the office with her orders. I and the warehouse supervisor put together her products and I personally handed her parcel to her. That was Oriflame's first sale in Turkey.
The following weeks and months were all full of success. Towards the end of the summer of 1992, I met with Jonas af Jochnick, one of the founders of Oriflame. He put his hand on my shoulder and said, "We did it!" I was surely the happiest person on earth!

Time to do a double take!
Katie Holmes shared a photo of daughter Suri hanging out with Holmes' nephews on Instagram Sunday, and the 10-year-old is a spitting image of the actress.
"Love these sweethearts who inspire me with all of their accomplishments and beautiful hearts and for bringing so much light to all of our lives!" the The Kennedys – After Camelot star captioned a photo of the trio on a road overlooking Los Angeles.
They have been spending a ton of family time together recently. Just last month, Holmes posted photos of Suri and her cousins at a beachside carnival using hashtags such as #family, #love and #blessed.
Holmes recently uploaded a throwback photo of her 17-year-old self to Instagram, and, at first glance, the then-rookie actress looked nearly identical to her little girl.
In a 2014 interview said that the All We Had actress admitted that she learns a lot as little Suri gets older.
"My patience has grown, but between 4 and 6 p.m. I mean, wow," she said. "Between tickle fights and glitter art, I try to throw in some manners along the way."
The Kennedys – After Camelot premieres on April 2 at 9 p.m. ET on Reelz.

BSS Industrial has recognised Exeter as its 2013 'Branch of the Year'.
The four regional Branch of the Year awards were presented at the BSS Industrial annual conferences. Along with Exeter, the Wirral, Norwich, and Wandsworth branches each scooped the top award within their region.
All of BSS Industrial's 64 branches were judged by the senior team on various financial and customer service-based assessments.
Geoff Dove, BSS Exeter branch manager, said: "Winning the 2013 Branch of the Year award is a fantastic accolade for the whole team. They've worked exceedingly hard over the past 12 months to ensure customers are happy and regularly coming through the doors. I am extremely proud of the whole team and this award is a reflection of all their hard work and effort."
Chris Hufflett, managing director of BSS Industrial, added: "We take this award very seriously within BSS Industrial and given we now have well over 60 branches, this year's awards were probably the most competitive on record. The Exeter branch performed outstandingly well during 2013 and while it was a close call between the finalists, they emerged as worthy winners. I'd like to take this opportunity to congratulate Geoff and the rest of the Exeter team for all of their hard work over the last 12 months."
During its annual conferences, BSS Industrial also announced its regional building services and industrial salespeople of the year, with Mark Nicholson and Pete Tinston picking up the respective awards in the Central region; Drew Huntington and Simon Ockenden in the London and South East region; Phil Smith and Mick Adlam in the South and South West region; and Tony Burt and Dean Fairclough in the Scotland, Ireland and North region.

For the few of you out there who have followed my blog from the very beginning you may recall my second post titled "What do you want to be when you grow up?" in that post I wrote about having to go back to a traditional 8-5 job after nearly 4 years of being on my own and consulting. I wrote about how grateful I was just to be working at a time when so many were not.
Well 1 week ago today I did something that many people would consider crazy at a time like this and voluntarily left gainful employment to go back to the world of freelance and consulting. I made the very best out of the 4 month opportunity I was so very fortunate to have, but knew all along in my heart and mind that it was temporary. I did all that I could to wake up every morning with excitement and optimism. I would get into my car and use a combination of good music along with a short commute as wind to push my sails, only to have that wind completely die off as soon as I walked through the front door of my office building. Certain places are designed to be tolerable day in and day out, while others can only be endured in doses. This company was definitely the latter. One can only live in blind hope for so long, before you forget what you are even hoping for.
Lining up some additional work, procuring other clients and having a couple loyal clients who stayed with me was enough to give my highly anticipated two-week notice. Two weeks that was filled with relief, doubt and anxiety, none of which could negate the fact that this was something I simply had to do. I revisited avenues in my personal life that can be downsized even further and redefined "sacrifice" in other areas and will continue to do so. I would do whatever I had to do, to rediscover joy in what I did.
Within my first week of being back on my own, my flexible schedule allowed me to have friends over for dinner that I have not seen in ages, with music, cooking and conversation in the background that served as a reminder of what life is all about. I find myself smiling at the idea of having to meet a client on a Sunday evening at a Starbucks knowing that Harley, the most beautiful German Shepherd there is can ride shotgun during most of my commutes once again. For those of you out there who have given me guidance and support during this time of my life, I cannot thank you enough! To my dear friends who also happen to be clients, thank you for your patience, loyalty and understanding! As I sit here in my home office, which at the moment is chock full of banker's boxes and file folders full of work, I realize that no amount of money or false sense of security can ever buy you more time.

It's better to do what makes you feel alive than to work somewhere and die slowly.ReplyDelete
Well said brother, well said...ReplyDelete
Totally agree. Nothing better than freelance and a flexible schedule. You get to hit the road, see and meet your favorite bands at the most obscure places. Good job sir!ReplyDelete
Thank you sir! Few things beat the experience of seeing a good band in an obscure place. We shall see what plans I can come up with to make God laugh... yet again!ReplyDelete
I'm definitely thankful for your more flexible schedule. You should move your laptop to your patio this morning. It's beautiful today! Well done. :)ReplyDelete
Thank you Jen for your consistent and encouraging comments, your continued support means the world to me!ReplyDelete

If you have celiac disease, a gluten intolerance or a wheat allergy, you need to avoid a wide variety of foods that contain gluten or foods that may be contaminated with gluten. While it can be challenging to remain on a gluten-free diet, it will get easier with time and knowledge. Use this list of foods with wheat or gluten to avoid problem foods and help you to make smart food choices.
Cooking your own food is the best way to avoid gluten and wheat, but you will need to avoid or replace some ingredients. Whole wheat, pumpernickel, rye, semolina and white flours all contain wheat or gluten. Most pasta, including egg noodles, are made with wheat flour. Bulgur, barley and couscous all contain wheat and wheat gluten. Oats, unless specifically labeled gluten-free, should be avoided due to contamination. Bran and breadcrumbs are also wheat based. Bouillon cubes, self basting meats and deli meats should be checked carefully for possible gluten, according to Celiac.com.
Prepared Foods
Choose prepared foods labeled gluten-free or check the manufacturer's website if you are unsure. Keep in mind that many prepared foods, such as soups, may contain traces of gluten. Pre-shredded cheese, frozen french fries, teriyaki sauce, salad dressings and soy sauce may all contain wheat or gluten, according to the Food Allergy Gourmet. Yogurt, sour cream, dips and even canned vegetables, including baked beans and tomatoes, are other possible culprits. Chips and cereals may contain gluten or may be gluten free.
Food Additives
Choose foods labeled wheat- or gluten-free to avoid potential food additives. Food colorings, preservatives and starches can all contain wheat or gluten. Avoid artificial coloring, caramel coloring and caramel flavoring, recommends Celiac.com. Read labels for hydrolyzed vegetable protein, food starch, maltose, vegetable starch or seasonings. Less processed foods typically have fewer additives and may be a better choice when you need to stick to a wheat- or gluten-free diet. These terms can all indicate a wheat based product. If you have questions about a specific product, many manufacturers can provide information via a toll-free number.

NSoft is a leading software solutions provider hailing from Bosnia & Herzegovina, with its core business in entertainment, but recently we have also expanded our portfolio to security and health. We pride ourselves for being one of the few truly multi-vertical omni-channel solution providers with a wide range of products, such as Platform, Sportsbook, Virtual and Draw based games, Casino but also in-house terminal/ssbt production.
The year 2019 was a crucial year for NSoft. You had planned global expansion as the main mission for the year? Looking back, how did it go?
Prior to 2019 we knew we had the right products and services, but in 2019 we decided to go more aggressively on advocating our portfolio to a much wider audience. The campaign included heavy digital marketing efforts, but also increasing our business team in Africa, Asia and Latin America. This resulted in significant revenue growth and new market penetrations, however, the best is yet to come as the onboarding process has passed and the team is pressing on.
You have recently signed a big deal in Haiti. Could you tell us more about your progress in Haiti?
The reception of our solutions in Haiti was beyond our expectations. The punters really love the products, especially the virtuals, and the partners are enjoying steady business growth. Nevertheless, the whole Latin America is really interesting for us and as I mentioned before we do have our representatives in the region now. It is really important to understand the needs of this market and we're doing our best to understand and adapt to customer needs. I can only see more success for NSoft in this area, especially now since Brazil is opening its doors.
NSoft started offering Betradar's Virtual Football League to Fortuna Romania's customers in December. How has been the customers' response towards the game so far?
That's an interesting trifecta you mentioned: Romania, Betradar and Fortuna Group.
Romania is one of our key markets, Betradar is our partner of choice while Fortuna Group is one of our largest and most renowned partners. Doing business in Romania, partnering with Betradar and Fortuna have brought us much success so it's no wonder that introducing a new product with the three ingredients combined was a complete success.
NSoft now has offices in Croatia, Asia, and Costa Rica, apart from headquarters in Bosnia and Herzegovina. What are your expansion plans?
We do not plan to stop there. Africa is actually the continent we're investing the most, and where we have expanded our team the most. The opportunities there are vast, and the development of the industry is as exciting as it was in Europe 10 years ago. Apart from that, we've just established our Business Development Department with a goal to tackle untapped opportunities with a bit different approach. The synergy between our gaming solutions and our security solutions will bring even more USP's – but we'll talk about when time is due.
The US gaming industry is undergoing tremendous changes. Tell us more about your US-specific products. How different is the US gaming sector from Europe's?
Currently we are not so much focused on the US, but it, definitely, is on our roadmap. I believe that retail will be strong in the US, and I don't think there is a better solutions provider for retail in the world thanus. We did see a growing interest for our SSBT's in this market and I think STARK terminals will open many doors for us there. We need to be careful though, and we need to meet the needs of the markets we just expanded to. Losing focus and understanding of customer's needs might backfire – so we're taking one step at a time.
Now we can about some of your products. What set apart your betting platform, Seven, from the competition?
The Seven platform was built from code line 1 for the cloud, no legacy code. It is both horizontally and vertically scalable and built on modern technologies. This means that the needs for any size of operator could be met – and scalability is really something operators struggle nowadays. When you add to that its omnichannel capabilities, seamless product and payment methods integrations combined with clean UI you do have a winner. Our extensive device management makes us second to none when it comes to retail, you can install and operate thousands of devices from a single point and that is really remarkable and very much needed in the fast moving world where you don't have the time to sit in the car and go to the shop to install a device.
Could you tell us about your upcoming products and games?
During ICE 2020 we will be displaying our two new virtuals: Virtual Drag Races and Virtual Penalty Shootout. I wouldn't want to spoil it now, but both games are very much unique, and I'm eager to see the reception during the expo. Apart from that, we will be displaying our brand new T-800 terminal which is a bit more robust version of the ultra slim and popular T-1000 terminal. Also, something we're really proud of are the synergies of our products so you'll be able to see Vision AI surveillance system integrated on our terminals or even on Seven platform. Later, during the year we will be presenting our new Casino vertical products, but also products that belong to the health industry.
Now on to the final question. It is perhaps more cultural than technological. NSoft grew from a city that is not too well known for its software products. How difficult is it for a company from a Balkan or Eastern European country to scale new heights in the global technological front?
I think the hardest part is behind us, we have conquered the region we came from and we already see the good results in the new markets. Having the best company culture and the best team does help. When you add to that the variety and maturity of product portfolio, how could we go wrong?
No matter where we do business, or where we onboard new colleagues, the reception of NSoft is amazing and we are humbled and thankful for this. The best is yet to come.

MasterChef tantalisingly close to the magic million
MasterChef Australia enjoyed another Thursday night ratings bump as reality fanatics turned to Ten for their fix.
MasterChef was the fifth most watched program of the night and was tantalisingly close to the magic million mark with 987,000 viewers.
The jump elevated Ten's total share of all free-to-air viewers to 21.1% with 14.7% going to its primary channel.
Seven lost Thursday night's ratings race as its news programs and extended episode of Home and Away failed to win the network the majority of FTA viewers on its House Rules-free night.
Nine won Thursday night overall with a total 28.8% of all FTA viewers with 20.9% choosing the network's primary channel, according to OzTam's preliminary metro ratings.
Seven sat in second place on 25.8% with 17.5% going to tis main channel.
Seven did have Thursday night's most watched show with Seven News (1.149 million). But it had only two other top 10 programs with Seven News/Today Tonight (1.039 million) and Home and Away (860,000) compared to Nine's 5 top 10 shows.
Nine's most watched show was Nine News (1.136 million).
The ABC sat on total 18.3% last night with 13.2% for ABC1.
SBS won a total 5.9% with 4.7% going to SBS ONE.

Most of the action on my site is now in my blog and my tumblelog. I invite you to visit!
Welcome to my philosophy page! Here is where I share philosophical thoughts that interest me. As always, I'm happy to receive comments and inquiries on my pages.
"Atheism brings me up to zero, and then things like humanism or feminism or social issues give me a purpose in life to go on and make this world a better place." --Dan Barker, former evangelical minister
Having been raised in Christianity, and once having believed in "God", no one could feel more surprise than I as I now find myself disbelieving all the theology I once learned. However, in retrospect I find my shift logical, and remain deeply in love with life, and committed to my friends and family, tolerance towards those who believe differently, and the human ability to perceive rational truth. If you would like to find out more about modern atheism, The Atheism Web provides a thoughtful introduction. Also, before writing to me to argue about (or even just inform me of) the existence of a deity, you would do well to familiarize yourself with the arguments on this page and this page.
An essential tool in anyone's brain is logic. Common errors in logic are known as fallacies. To raise the quality of debate on the Internet, the Atheism Web provides a tutorial on essential logic and fallacies.
In 1997 I wrote a review E. Calvin Beisner's book Answers for Atheists. Mine is the oldest one, dated May 17, 1997. Originally it had my name on it, but Amazon.com appears to have lost it. The Secular Web has also archived my review.
Here is my account of my philosophical journey into atheism.
Here is my blog wherein I provide non-believers who grew up in my childhood religion, the Worldwide Church of God, a safe space to recount their stories.
If you've also lost your faith, but still have that "metaphysical urge", you might want to check into The Church of the Subgenius, The Principia Discordia, and Worship Wonko. Note: For their own safety, the easily-offended or humor-impaired should not enter these sites unless wearing a sensory deprivation tank. Read 'em anyway and feel offended? So sorry, but you should know a few things about satire, parody, and freedom of speech.
The mission of the Reverend Jim Huber's web site: "Produce and maintain a web site which results in an average of one email a day telling me how cool I am, and one a week telling me I'm going to hell." Don't miss his insightful parable, Kissing Hank's Ass.
On a more serious note, for those who have lost their faith (and also for those who never had one in the first place!) one of the most serious problems is the absence of a community of support within the church environment. In fact, some studies have linked church attendance with a better and longer life due to that social support system. In the past, nonbelivers have suffered in relative isolation. However, a trend just beginning offers hope: The Church of Freethought offers a "filet of religion", including community activities, discussion groups, freethought "sermons", and a community of friendly folks, without the "trappings" of theism. The North Texas Church of Freethought seems to have started the trend, and it looks like they're on to something. Look for other freethought churches to spring up as time goes on!
The Secular Web has archived an article on atheism I wrote: McNally's Challenge. I have also updated it: McNally's Challenge, 10th Anniversary Edition.
One of the best religion sites I have found on the Web is The Ontario Consultants on Religious Tolerance. They have factual essays on a huge number of religions (and even the non-religion of atheism,) and balanced presentations of many hot religious topics.
I strongly recommend Carl Sagan's book The Demon Haunted World. It is a valuable reality check for anyone who believes there is a reality. Truly one of the most important books of the 20th and 21st centuries.
I have come to believe that authoritarian structures (such as the church or state) will never do a better job of taking care of individuals than they themselves can once they learn to affirm their personal sovereignty, take responsibility for their lives, share common resources, and avoid the use of force except in self-defense. Is there more to politics than the two party system? You bet! Take the World's Smallest Political Quiz and find out where you really stand.
