Top 10 Responsive Frameworks for Web Developers
Last modified on by
Today I am going to share some interesting stuffs. I had googled & come up with nice css framesworks that are really useful when its comes to responsive design.
Groundwork CSS
Built from the ground up with Sass, GroundworkCSS is a fully responsive framework that features an incredibly flexible, nest-able fluid grid system with support for any number of columns in any fractional amount, which means it is a framework that works for virtually any modern layout.
MUELLER Grid System
Based on Compass, MUELLER is a modular grid system for responsive/adaptive and non–responsive layouts. It gives you full control over column width, gutter width, baseline grid and media–queries.
Cool Kitten
The Cool Kitten framework, is a lightweight HTML/CSS/JS toolkit for creating a responsive parallax scrolling website. It makes use of Normalize.css, Stellar.js and the jQuery Easing Plugin.
Built using SASS and CSS3 media queries, Centurion is an easy-to-use responsive web framework. It comes packages with custom and and easy to modify scripts for navigation, tables, and tabbed elements (built using CoffeeScript). Even the CSS was built using Sass making it easy to include or exclude any portions of the code you may or may not want
One% CSS Grid
One% CSS Grid is a percentage based 12 column fluid CSS grid system that would work perfectly well for anyone looking to quickly build a responsive base. It has two starting points, one which fits 1280px screens (in full screen view) and another one which fits 1024px screens (in full screen view).
Base Framework
Base is a 12 column 960px grid (max) responsive CSS framework that has everything you need for starting a responsive web project quickly. It comes with a minimal HTML5 template (including jQuery), a stylesheet with basic styles, a default JS file with base enhancements & fallbacks and, a LESS file to easily customize your styleshee
Bourbon Neat
Neat is a semantic grid framework built on top of Sass and Bourbon. It is simple enough to get you up and running in minutes, and powerful enough to handle almost anything you throw at it. Using Sass 3.2 block mixins, this framework makes it extremely easy to build responsive layouts. Using the
breakpoint() mixin, you can change the number of columns in the grid for each media query and store these values in project-wide variables to DRY up your code.
Gumby 2
Gumby 2 is a free, open-source responsive front-end development framework built with SASS. The grid is engineered to be there when you need it, and get out of your way when you don't; it's a powerful fluid-fixed layout defaulting to the popular 960 grid. It includes Google Webfonts, Entypo icons, modular scale typography and a fully customizable UI kit all built into it's extensible codebase.
Foundation 4
Foundation, the popular web framework from ZURB, has recently undergone an intensive updgrade. The codebase has been completely rewritten with the objective of taking a 'mobile-first' approach. All of it's JS plugins have all been rewritten to make them better, stronger and faster. And they've also switched Foundation over to Zepto, which is deemed a much lighter substitute for jQuery.
inuit.css v5.0
inuit.css is now (already!) at v5.0. However, this version doesn't introduce much in the way of new features, it's a lot more about how you use, implement and update the framework.

Can't believe this is my first blog post of 2018! A part of me is excited just to have made it this far; every year I feel like I get so caught up in everything that's going on that I think surely I'm not going to make it to the end.
I know this sounds super cliché but I honestly want this year to be a fresh start for me in many ways. Firstly, I want to start looking after myself better in an emotional sense. This is one area which I feel I end up lacking in, which means I just need to try harder and make more of a commitment to myself to actually actively do it. There has been way too many times when I've let myself fall into this state of sadness and wallowing, where I let everything get to me, including a whole lot of negatively. I know this is easier said than done, as I think many other people struggle with this as well, but I need to remember that I'm here to look after myself and I have to make myself a priority when need be for the sake of my own sanity. This means putting less of a focus on other people and more on myself, as often I have a tendency to put certain people, or certain types of people (most of whom don't deserve it), before myself and it never works out for me, as you can probably guess.
I also want to start planning my future, and spend a decent amount of the year considering and preparing for what I want to achieve and what I want my life to be. I've already started giving it some serious thought, and what age I'd like to be when I focus on that area of my life. As you might know, I'm an extremely thoughtful and organised person so it's very typical of me to plan these things well in advance, no matter how far into the future they actually are. Lots of people say you should just live in the moment and take every day as it comes, etc etc, but what about for people who are planners? This approach is not going to work if that's how you are, at least for me it isn't. I think it makes life a little bit easier to have a plan and to know what you want ahead of time so that you know where you're at and where your focus needs to be.
My third 'new year's resolution', I guess you could call it, is to write more. I know I've been slacking in the last six months or so. Mainly this was because those were some really hard months for me and I was taking some time to tend to myself, but I'd like to leave that in 2017 and keep my writing positive and uplifting, with the exception of a few times when I might like to just write about what's going on and what's bothering me. I would also like to get more confidence with sharing my writing with other people, because despite having this blog (more like an online diary) I consider myself to be quite a private person and I actually keep a lot to myself.
I hope you're having a fab start to the new year as well!

Booking Holdings buys FareHarbor to further digital aspirations
The tours and activities sector is expected to double in gross bookings to $27 billion in 2020; Ctrip, Google and TripAdvisor are also with aspirations in tours and activities.
Booking Holdings appears to be making good on its digital aspirations with its acquisition of tours and activities tech specialist FareHarbor.
The accommodation giant, recently renamed Booking Holdings from Priceline, has made noise recently about further widening its services through ground transportation and in-destination experiences.
In late December, news of Booking.com's strategy to be the world's largest digital platform for experiences emerged.
Denver-based FareHarbor, which is now five years old, offers tours and activities suppliers an online booking solution.
According to a statement, FareHarbor will operate as an independent business with its senior management team reporting into Booking.com's leadership team.

NTS-02. On Rayleigh damping coefficients for FE analysis
Note to self. How to compute Rayleigh damping coefficients for given damping ratios $\xi_1$ and $\xi_2$ at frequencies $f_1$ and $f_2$.
This is textbook content, I just need to remind myself too often how this is done and end up re-deriving the equations.
Given the second-order system of differential equations representing the FE model
$$ M \ddot{u} + C \dot{u} + K u = F(t) $$
The damping matrix $C$ can be written as a Rayleigh damping matrix:
$$ C = a_0 M + a_1 K $$
$a_0$ and $a_1$ are Rayleigh damping coefficients found by solving
$$ \left[ \begin{array}{cc} \dfrac{1}{2\pi f_1} & 2 \pi f_1 \ \dfrac{1}{2\pi f_2} & 2 \pi f_2 \end{array} \right] \left[ \begin{array}{c} a_0 \ a_1 \end{array}
NTS (Note-To-Self): Creating dynamically linked libraries
A nice extensive tutorial can be found here.
In a nutshell:
gcc -Wall -fPIC -c \*.c
gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,libctest.so.1 -o libctest.so.1.0 \*.o
mv libctest.so.1.0 /opt/lib
ln -sf /opt/lib/libctest.so.1.0 /opt/lib/libctest.so.1
ln -sf /opt/lib/libctest.so.1.0 /opt/lib/libctest.so
-Wall: include warnings. See man page for warnings specified.
-fPIC: Compiler directive to output position independent code, a characteristic required by shared libraries. Also see "-fpic".
-shared: Produce a shared object which can then be linked with other objects …

There will only ever be one Flash. Barry Allen is the scarlet speedster we all love and he will forever be the fastest man alive. Geoff Johns knew that when he asked for Allen to be revived during the DC event 'Final Crisis'. This brought back the Flash in a big way and brought a lot of attention back onto the series after a waning interest from the readership. Then, for his next trick, Johns wrote Flash Rebirth (in a similar vein to his previous Green Lantern Rebirth series which had been a resounding success) and blew fans away with a great story and origin redesign that is now considered to be the only Flash origin. With a Flash fever gripping readership the corporate higher ups wanted a big Flash event. Johns sat at his desk and then after several minutes began to pen the liquid gold that would be the Flashpoint script.
Alternate Realities
Flash had recently discovered an ability called the 'speed force' which gave him lots of new abilities and so Johns wanted to dig deep into how the character would react to such power. This lead to Barry using the speed force to time travel back to the past in an attempt to save his mother from her death. Barry managed this feat and then returned to the present to find himself in an alternative dimension. However, unlike many weaker alternative dimension storylines, this DCU was packed full of great characters and 'what if?' moments. We were introduced to a Thomas Wayne who had taken up the Bat-mantel I when his son had been killed in front of him and a warring version of Aquaman and Wonder Woman. It was a fun and vibrant universe that then lead to the Flash having to correct himself and allow his mother to die in an emotional climax you could find in few other books. The fallout carved the path for the new 52 and a completely different DC Universe.
A Flash In The Pan
I searched across a lot of websites in preparation for this article and so I can say with absolutely certainty that Flashpoint has never received a one-star or below rating on Amazon and only 1% of readers from Goodreads gave it one-star or below. That's better a better record than industry classics such as Watchmen or the Killing Joke. There are a lot of reasons for this of course, less people have read Flashpoint than either of those greats for example, but I think a main reason is that Johns manages to nail the emotional heart of the situation. In the main book we get all the set up and pay off needed for both the Barry Allen and Thomas Wayne arcs which is a sign of great writing. The sales of the time show Flashpoint selling out and topping the charts at release. This was a success in all directions and it didn't stop there.
The Rise Of The New 52
This book showed that comics can be crazy and play with high concept sci-fi, without resorting to the grim-dark ultra violence of the nineties scene. It heralded a new age over at DC where characters could undergo vast redesigns or backstory shifts, such as Snyder's Swamp Thing or Azzarello's Wonder Woman, as long as the plot was tied to great writing. It created a shift in the industry and left ripples that we are still feeling today with events like Secret Wars and Rebirth. This is a modern classic with a brilliant legacy to leave. Join me next time when I will be looking at The Walking Dead and how Image comics used a zombie apocalypse soap opera to rise from the dead.
…That was this week's Comic History 101!!! Check back on Saturday for a new BearSleuth Spoiler Free Comic Book Bundle!!!

Hello, and welcome back! If you would like to know how I make my tiramisu, I would love to share it with you. Again, I would say that even if you like it the traditional way, just try my way for fun. You really have nothing to loose!
Here are the ingredients you will need, and as far as special equipment, a mixer is a must! I shared this recipe with a dear friend, who was in New Zealand temporarily and did not have a mixer. Let's just say the consistency will not turn out right if you try to mix it by hand. You can whisk it all day, but you will end up with a soupy mess! So if you don't have one, borrow one! You will also want an espresso maker a 9×9 square dish, unless you would like to make individual cups like the one pictured above. (Not my picture, by the way) That is a fun option for a small dinner party!
Espresso freshly brewed in a large espresso maker
6 egg yolks
7 Tbsp. sugar,
500 grams mascarpone (Italian cream cheese, usually found in the specialty cheese section) I use three 8 oz. tubs. Galvani is a good brand, or one that specifically says to use for tiramisu. One other bit of advice…Once I used Whole Food's brand, and while it may be fine for other things, the consistency is all wrong for this dessert. It should be firm and dense, and this brand is much too runny.
@ 1 shot glass of sweet marsala
Unsweetened cocoa powder (qb) is used in Italian that means "as much as is needed." for dusting the top at the end.
Start making your espresso. I use an espresso maker that holds about six small cups. While it is brewing, open the biscuits ( shown on previous blog post), and make two layers. You may have to split the cookies in half for them to fit in the pan.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer with a whisk attachment, beat egg yolks and sugar until combined, and very creamy. (About 5 minutes) Don't rush this step. The mixture should look like a creamy custard. Add the mascarpone, and combine until smooth. Keep an eye on your espresso Once it is done, remove from heat, and allow to cool a bit.
Once the espresso has cooled down some, but not too much, poor over the biscuits until both layers are saturated. Don't pour all of the espresso on the biscuits, as you don't want them to be soggy. As you pour, look for dry spots, and try to avoid leaving areas dry, while not drenching them. It may take a couple practice runs before you get just the right consistency. Pour custard mixture over coffee soaked biscuits, and spread evenly. Cover with saran wrap, and allow to sit overnight. It should be nice and firm, and the flavors have time to blend the longer it is left to sit.
Right before you are ready to serve the tiramisu, dust with unsweetened cocoa powder.
Since there are raw eggs, it is recommended that women who are pregnant and very young children do not eat it. Also, keep the rest of the tiramisu refrigerated.
PS If you do try this recipe, I would love to know your thoughts 🙂

The social media rumor mills have been abuzz with speculation on a soon-to-be released replacement for the built-in Facebook messenger functionality–namely a full blown email service. This isn't terribly surprising news, is a pretty logical next step for the 6-year old company, and if it launches as expected, it'll automatically give email accounts to 400+ million people worldwide. A move like that and suddenly Facebook is the #1 email provider in the world. I don't know about you, but that seems just a little bit scary.
For one thing, Facebook doesn't exactly have a stellar track record when it comes to privacy protection. Does the word "Beacon" ring a bell with anyone? And how long has it been since Facebook changed it's Terms of Service amidst customer outrage over the fact that it indicated you couldn't remove your personal data from Facebook's servers? Sure, they backpedaled pretty fast on that one and had end-users critique, choose, and proof a new version of the TOS, but the damage was done. Just this year Facebook has already completely revised it's privacy controls with defaults that leave users open to just about anything. Ultimately, while the new control are simpler, they seem to provide less control overall. We'll call this Strike One.
Another area that makes me uneasy is that of reliability and performance. I can't even count the number of times when I've gotten one of those mysterious "An unknown error has occurred" messages while doing something completely innocuous on the site. Just the other day, I was uploading a few photos using the brand new photo uploader plugin. After selecting the photos I wanted and starting the process, I got a message that my photos would upload in the background and that in a few seconds I'd be taken back to the homepage. Sounded okay to me–but after ten minutes of no photos showing up in the album, I decided something went wrong and I needed to try again. The second attempt appeared successful and nothing seemed amiss, but the very next day, I found that all of my uploaded photos had been duplicated within the album. Yet another headache. All of that said and I haven't even mentioned the numerous times that links or buttons don't seem to do anything, do something strange, or have a delayed response of 30 seconds or more. Doesn't seem like the type of application I typically use on a daily basis–especially when my connection runs at 3mbps. Google gets far more traffic than Facebook does each day, yet I never experience any of these types of errors when searching for, say, chicken pot pie recipes. Let's just admit the fact that this is another huge problem and call it Strike Two.
The last point I'll make involves the numerous interface changes that have occurred over the past year. First, we got a new site design that was heavily criticized by users. Next, Facebook deployed a new profile design which would supposedly make things simpler. Users cried foul. Then the homepage and feed interfaces changed to the point where most people sat scratching their heads wondering how in the world it worked. They also undoubtedly spend countless hours trying to determine how the information was updated, how Facebook deemed certain information relevant, and so on. And to top it off, just this past Friday, Facebook changed the global site navigation, notification system, and news feeds all over again. This update hasn't yet been rolled out to all users, so I haven't had the chance to test it. The screenshots look nice, but…again I've been hearing negative comments from users just the same. Now, to be fair, many people just don't appreciate change and become immediately outraged when something becomes unfamiliar to them. But it seems to me like Facebook should do a better job of reassuring the multitudes of their continued dedication to providing an intuitive user experience. I haven't seen any good PR addressing the concerns of users, which, in my ever so humble opinion is a huge mistake. However, because it's hard to say whether or not what we have now is better than what we all used a year ago, I'll call this Strike Two-and-a-half.
So…what about Facebook Email (Or could it perhaps be called "femail")? This really could end up being a Strike Three scenario. I really don't know what's going to become of it and whether users will embrace it or not, but I'd say in order for it to be a truly viable, useful, and helpful service, Facebook will need to address all of the above considerations. It must be secure and free from breaches of privacy (within norms of traditional email). It must be stable and robust, allowing users to check their email without issue 24/7. It must have a good, usable, uncluttered interface. It must be able to be used as a standalone email platform with no proprietary ties to Facebook itself, if that's what the user wants. And finally, it must be open. It needs to support traditional protocols like POP, IMAP, and SMTP. It needs to use SSL. It must support industry standard mail clients. I think that it's fate will ultimately be decided based on consumer satisfaction. That being said, if I were a corporation, I think I would automatically block all email coming from that system without thinking twice. Mixing business and pleasure can be dangerous enough as it is, I can only imagine what might happen if you start mixing business and Facebook. Can anyone spell "disaster?" I think I'll sit this one out and see what happens, but even then I'm in no hurry to leave Gmail's spectacular service for both personal and business accounts.
Well, what do you think? Will Facebook actually roll out an email service? Will it catch on? Will you use it? The comments are open. Post your thoughts!

The current leaves the battery at the negative terminal, flows through the bulb, and returns to the positive terminal of the battery. The electrons flow in one direction.
This is known in electronics as DIRECT CURRENT flow because the electrons flow only in one direction. The arrows in the figure show the direction that the current would flow in this circuit. As long as we can follow the current from the negative terminal of the battery throughout the entire circuit, and back to the positive terminal, we have a COMPLETE CIRCUIT PATH.
It is very important to remember that current will ONLY flow if the circuit path is complete. If we were to remove the light bulb from the circuit, the circuit path would not be complete, and while voltage would still exist on the battery, no current would flow through the circuit. In order to have any complete circuit, you are required to have at least 3 parts:
(1) The SOURCE or SUPPLY of Voltage.
(2) The LOAD which uses the source Voltage.
(3) A complete path of connecting wires.
Remember that a resistor is any device which causes electrical friction. In electronics, the resistor can be substituted for any current load. The schematic symbol for a battery can likewise be substituted for any direct current supply voltage. So, in essence, we could theoretically use our battery and resistor to represent our light bulb circuit.
You will notice that the picture on the left is the same one we just looked at. The one on the right actually has two schematic diagrams. The schematic on the left is an exact representation of the picture on the left. The schematic on the right we say is an ELECTRICAL EQUIVILANT circuit for the one on the left.
Any circuit, no matter how complex, can be broken down to being a source and a load. The resistor represents the light bulb, which is the load of the circuit. Anytime you are having a problem figuring out how a circuit works, it can be helpful to break it down to an ELECTRICAL EQUIVILANT circuit.
The SCHEMATIC SYMBOL for the light bulb is pretty self explanatory. The Schematic for the resistor looks like a series of sharp turns. Just remember that on a road, you have to slow down at sharp turns, and electrical flow (current) has to slow down at a resistor.
The battery needs a little explanation. The lines represent the electrodes of a battery. Note that the SHORT line is always the NEGATIVE terminal, and the longer line is always the POSITIVE terminal.

Dressing-up for fes tive occasions is indeed a daunting task. Selecting an outfit, its colour and accessories, everything needs to be considered before you step out to celebrate the festival. However, this task becomes quite simpler during Navratra as each day of the festival represents different colours, thus adding to the excitement of celebration, especially among women. A few weeks before the festival itself, messages on mobiles and social networking sites start doing rounds mentioning the colour code for the nine days of the festival. Several newspapers also join the brigade to spread the word.Hence it is not unusual to see myriad shades of even a single colour on a particular day during this festival. The enthusiasm has grown a lot as in many work places too, small chits are pasted on the doors to indicate the colours of the week.
Colours play an integral part in the Navratra celebration as the nine colours represent the nine facets of Navadurga.Although colours play significant role for diagnostics in psychology, during Navratra, it symbolises shakti or the energy represented by each aspect of the Goddess. Goddess Shailaputri is represented by grey, while Brahmacharini dresses in flaming orange; the peaceful hue of white is donned by Chandrghanta, while the creator of the universe Kushmanda is assigned red. The colour blue signifies the destroyer of evils by the avatar of Skandamata and is worshipped on Lalita Panchami day. Moreover, the shakti avatar of Katyayani dons yellow while green is worn by Kalaratri who gives protection from evil.On Saraswati puja day, Mahagauri wears peacock green almost signifying the vehicle of the goddess of learning. Siddhidatri in purple shows supernatural powers.
In another scripture, orange is associated with courage and Chamunda Devi (who destroyed the demons Chanda and Munda), while parrot green is donned by Amba to express compassion. Purple is worn by Kushmanda to denote new beginnings, while red signifies action by Durga. The variations are perceptions of each incarnation of Durga and are explained in Saptashati, a holy book read during Navratri. Dr Manali Londhe, professor of philosophy explains, "Colours signify different energies. These aspects are related to the feelings about the Goddess.In Sankhya philosophy the triguna is explained as: satva-white, rajas-red and tamas-black. Red is needed for activity but satva represents peace and conscious thinking. Black is the colour of negativity and usually shunned during auspicious times."
Many people also state that the colours indicated for popular use during Navratri are related to the colours of the planets. For instance, they advise yellow on Thursday which is the colour of Jupiter. The dark colours of grey or dark blue allocated to Saturdays rep resent the Saturn. So the shades don't really matter what happens is the tremendous acceptance of this aspect during the annual festival.
Varied cultures show varied preferences and beliefs.Red is usually considered as a bridal colour whereas in Maharashtra, green is considered auspicious for the bride. So taking such differences into account, their importance during this particular festival of Navratra is worth a study.Whatever the reasons for colour dress codes during the nine-day utsav the fact remains that they are the unifying force although shades vary!
The colour represents Goddess Durga the one who is always in action. Universally, red is perceived as warm and positive colour and symbolises action, energy and courage.
ROYAL BLUE The colour represents Goddess Renuka Devi the one who inspires.Generally, royal blue symbolises the quality of wisdom and purity.
YELLOW -The colour represents Goddess Saraswati the one who bestows knowledge.Yellow symbolises happiness, positivity and fun.
GREEN The colour represents Goddess Jagadamba the one who protects nature. Green symbolises prosperity and relates to stability and endurance.
GREY The colour represents Goddess Mahakali or Bhairavi the one who grants wishes.Grey also symbolises the quality of being neutral.
ORANGE The colour represents Goddess Chamunda the one who is courageous.
Orange symbolises emotional strength and optimism.
WHITE The colour represents Goddess Parvati the one who has all the gunas. Commonly, white symbolises peace. It is also the colour of protection and encouragement.
PINK The colour represents Goddess Gauri the one who forgives. Pink generally symbolises love, nurture and understanding.
SKY BLUE The colour represents Goddess Bhuvaneshwari the one who represents illusion. Sky blue hue often symbolises sacrifice, devotion and caring.

There are so many reasons I love photographing newborns in their homes. In Samuel's case, the wood wall that dad built in Samuel's nursery provided a gorgeous backdrop for this family's first professional photos together. Those knotted wood planks just pop in black and white. They make sweet family snuggles even more of an impact.
We used the rug in his room for the basket photos and a little birdie from his mobile (made for mom's baby shower) in his bear photo. So many personal touches that came from doing his newborn session at home.
As with a lot of newborn sessions, Samuel wasn't quite sure he was ready to settle down for his photos. But I worked with him awhile, mom fed him and within no time, he passed out in contented bliss. I love all the details of Samuel's little self! That hair, those cute little ears, nose, eyelashes and baby feet!

Travel Theme Spooky
Some members of my family turn spooky at this time of year!!

Some members of my family turn spooky at this time of year!!
For more thrills, check out Ailsa's spooky post here 🙂
I love Halloween!
Happy Halloween to the whole family 😀
in my country we don't take it that "seriously" ih ih ih ih
but I admit your kids looks fantastic
have a lot of fun (and sweeties)
There's a lot of beauty under there!
looks like halloween is a fun time over there
In Denmark the Halloween are a mighty growing business these years… 😉
Lovely spooky shots… 😉
Great, start counting all the policians worldwide we so easily can live without… 'hahaha'
We are getting a cabinet reshuffle tomorrow. As if that makes any difference 🙂
The political world and the real world are 2 parallel societies, without any larger interface – so it is in many places in Europe and maybe in Asia too – and the policians think we don't know it… 🙂
That is what I find incredible.
They do take us for idiots. But we vote them back too for lack of a better option, so perhaps we really are 😦 I have decided not to vote, or at the least cast a null vote, next election. Unless a knight in shining armour comes along. Most knights thus far have turned out to be villains after all.
Wow, these are fantastic Halloween costumes. 😀
Love the little ghost most of all, Madhu!
I restrict my spookiness to watching "Strictly Come Dancing does Halloween", Madhu, but the youngsters certainly love it.
Spooky costumes indeed…. tey weill have a fun night on Halloween.
Wonderful costumes !
That gold skull mask is pretty neat.
Cute photos, Madhu. I was surprised to see Halloween in India too….but then when we were in Puerto Vallarta a couple of years ago, kids were out trick or treating there too, and that surprised me. It's a plague 🙂
Great spooky costumes!
Love it! Thanks for sharing.
Why am I not surprised? And they're such wonderful renditions of ghoulish devilry Madhu – fabulous 🙂
Those are some great costumes!
Very spooky!
Love it. Halloween is all about reinventing, being creative, just seting seriousness aside and having fun. You got them all here!

The welfare approach
The welfare approach is an extension of the decision-making approaches, which considers the effects of decision making on social welfare. Basically, decision-making approaches limit the field of interest to the private use of accounting information. If accounting information had a relevance limited to private interests, the decision-making approaches would provide a sufficient analysis of information needs. It is because of the external social effects of decisions made on the basis of accounting information that there is imputed a social welfare dimension to accounting theory.
The theoretical objective of the welfare approach is the maximization of social welfare, which is defined as the benefits accruing to all members of society from decisions made by individuals about the use of resources under their control. In this respect, a disadvantage of the classical individual decision-making approach which hitherto has been reflected in the debate about accounting policies is that it does not provide a basis for developing accounting policies which would maximize social welfare. In this respect, the Trueblood Report took the view that the appropriate policy for accounting was the provision of information for making economic decisions (A.I.C.P.A., Study Group on Financial Objectives, 2003). Implicit in this view is that accounting should provide information for decision making by individuals, without any consideration of social welfare effects. As May and Sundem pointed out, such a delineation of what accounting policy makers should be concerned with precludes the possibility of making comparison among alternative policies having different social welfare effects (May and Sundem, 2006).
The welfare effects which are associated with the use of financial state-ments may be discussed from various standpoints.
(1) The effects of financial information on the welfare of individual decision makers may be deemed to be one important standpoint. Since investment decisions imply the comparison of alternative investments, external users of financial information require as much consistency and comparability as is practicable between the financial statements of enterprises generally. We shall discuss this point further in Part 4, but it may be mentioned at this stage that it was the lack of comparability between the financial statements of enterprises which lay at the root of much criticism of the accounting profession in the 2000s, and led to the setting up in the United Kingdom of the Accounting Standards Committee in 2000. The Press took the view that the accounting profession had a duty to increase the quality of reported financial information to give better protection to shareholders and other interested users of company financial reports.
(2) The effects of financial information on social welfare may also be seen from the standpoint of the distortion arising from the possession of superior knowledge by one segment of a particular group of users, which would have consequential changes in the distribution of wealth within the group. For example, if an investor has access to inside information about an enterprise, and this information is not freely available to other investors, he would be able to make decisions which may improve his welfare at the expense of other investors.
(3) The effects of financial information may also be viewed from the standpoint of the allocation of resources in the economy. The importance of accounting information as regards the allocation of scarce resources was discussed earlier. Financial statements provide the investors with data which assist in establishing the market price of company shares. There is research evidence to show that accounting data have an important effect on share prices. Ideally, financial reports should contain data which make it possible for investors to evaluate investment opportunities, if the allocation of resources throughout the economy is to maximize social welfare in accordance with classical economic theory.
(4) The approaches to accounting theory which have been mentioned so far assume that information is a free commodity, and therefore that no costs are incurred in producing information. Clearly, from a social welfare viewpoint, costs are significant in considering the level of information to be made available, given that resources are scarce and could be employed in other activities. The costs of collecting and processing data and distributing information should be taken into account in considering the level of information provided to users. The difficulty which stands in the way of developing this analysis further lies in the problem of defining and measuring the benefits associated with the use of information, for the optimum level of information output ought also to be seen from the perspective of the payoffs associated with costs. As we shall see below, some attempts have been made to define the payoffs which may be associated with information costs.
(5) The effects of financial information on welfare may be viewed from the standpoint of the vested interests of groups within an organization. It is evident that the alteration of accounting policies in favour of one group and away from another group will affect the distribution of income and wealth within society. In this respect, the movement towards disclosing information to employees and the concept of social responsibility accounting, are clearly causing such a change.
The normative specific approach
Unlike empirical research, which concentrates on how users of accounting information apply this information in decision making, the normative specific approach to theory construction is concerned with specifying the manner in which decisions ought to be made as a pre-condition to considering the information requirement.
The normative specific approach focuses on the decision models which should be used by decision makers seeking to make rational decisions. This focus is seen as providing insights on the information needs of decision makers, as... see: The Normative Specific Approach

This self-build project in Wakefield consisted of a 102m2 ground floor foot print which was designed to meet very high environmental standards to and needed to be as thermally efficient as possible.
The client elected to use 170mm deep thermal insulation to underlay a standard warm water underfloor heating using a sustainable geothermal heat source. Gypsol Classic Screed was selected as a cost effective and practical alternative to traditional sand cement screed initially specified. Gypsol Classic was selected as it can be laid relatively thin allowing coupled with the high thermal conductivity of the material, makes it significantly more thermally responsive, requiring lower flow temperatures making it perfect for use with this type of underfloor heating system. In this project the screed was laid at just 55mm deep.
The choice to use Gypsol Classic screed was also influenced by the sustainability criteria associated with its manufacture. Gypsol binder contains 98% recycled material and when incorporated into a floor screed offers savings on carbon emissions of up to 95% compared to sand cement screed.
Additionally, as Gypsol Classic screed is free flowing, self- compacting and installation is ergonomically advantageous the impact on health and safety of the installing contractors was significantly lower than would have been the case had traditional screed been used.
The Gypsol Classic screed was poured once the building was weather tight and once dried was subsequently overlaid with a variety of floor coverings including carpet, tiles and engineered wood.

text: Could anybody identify what's gone wrong here please? I inherited this from someone, didn't really know what it was supposed to be like, sold it on, and now the guy's complaining that its broken... well, obviously it's not BROKEN as such, but I suppose I see what he means - the top case doesnt look like other ones I've since seen - it has these funny slits in it! Anybody know why? Is it from a different model? Can I just replace it with the correct top case? Thanks!

Dermefface Fx7 Review Clear Your Acne With This Advice
If you find yourself plagued by blackheads and unsightly breakouts of pimples, this article is for you. Teens and adults alike have to tackle acne. It is possible to find ways to control outbreaks and enjoy healthier skin on your face.
The first thing that you need to plan out is what type of food you are going to put in your body. When you eat a lot of junk food it will hurt your immunity. One of the best things you can do for your body is to consume plenty of fruits and vegetables. Be sure to eat only portions of meat that are lean and try to eliminate sugar from your diet. If you do this, your body will be sure to be healthy.
Make sure your body stays healthy and hydrated by drinking lots of water. Sodas and sweet drinks do not help with hydration. If you are not a fan of water, try making your own fresh juice with a juicer. Fresh juice is much healthier than those you can find in stores, and it is much better for your skin, as well.
Think about trying out Maca. The health supplement, which has no bad side effects, is thought to help reduce stress levels and restore balance in your body. When you purchase the supplement, be sure to follow the directions that are included.
Some cleaners are harsh and not meant for the skin on your face, so be sure to avoid them and use the proper cleansers. Harsh chemicals can make your skin dry, which in turn causes worse skin problems. If your skin is dry, it naturally produces more oil, which can be the opposite of what you're attempting to do. Instead of purchasing a harsh cleanser, try to find a soap with gentler ingredients, such as tea tree oil. Then, to protect your skin from drying out after washing, be sure to follow up with a light facial moisturizer.
Garlic is another home treatment that is effective in fighting against acne that is caused by bacterial infections. To treat acne with dermefface fx7 review garlic, use a press to mash several cloves. Rub the crushed garlic on your skin where it needs treatment. This method may sting, but it will quickly clear the acne. Wash the area after a few minutes. This garlic treatment is inappropriate for the delicate skin around the eyes.
You can tighten your pores with a mask made of clay. These clays work to remove excess oil from the skin. Be sure that you completely rinse your face when you take off the clay mask to avoid any irritation.
Being stressed could cause you to have unhealthy skin. Stress makes your skin dirty because it messes with your skin's natural hormonal process. Ensure you properly manage daily stress in order to keep your skin looking its radiant best.
If you include these ideas in your daily routine, your skin will begin to clear up over time. The key to maintaining the vitality of your skin is to make sure you look after it regularly. Wash it twice a day and use a mask, and a garlic treatment, once a week for skin that is clean and healthy.

whatever I may be , in whatever situation, I manage to think high of myself. I wonder how??
Monthly Archives: October 2007
some beans are out
Today i spilled out some of my beans to a friend who i thought would not be judgmental. Who would not think "haw! haw! she did that, she is like that"..mainly that haw factor. It was comfortable talking to her. She understood me pretty well because she has been through the same. She said things which i understood because I am going through the same. Although its a little late for both of us but we have realized finally and I promised her that I will start working. That I would prioritize my life and think about myself and my future. I needed that poke. She shook me. Well, she lend me an ear at least. I freed a bit and it feels light and right.
I wish I had woken up before but better late than never. Or so we say to console ourselves. Let's see what will happen. In the meanwhile, I am ok .
love and faith
The day!
Its one of those days ! You know, when one makes pledges and sets a target to achieve and then works relentlessly for it after realizing that a major change is needed. Today is that day!
I have thought of something. I have made a pledge, a solemn decision and from the heart and mind combined. 22/10/2007, Monday – marks the beginning and end of something. It will happen. I will do it. It took so long to hit this hard but it has now and now the action will have a reaction.
I will keep the chronicles of how the things changed because this is very very crucial for me. More than life at this point of time .
Just f**k it! why the hell ? what the hell? damn it! its all crap!
yeah well ..thats some sort of a relief..
Nobels 2007
And the Nobel goes to …….
1. Albert Fert and Peter Grünberg "for the discovery of Giant Magnetoresistance" in Physics.
2. Gerhard Ertl "for his studies of chemical processes on solid surfaces" in Chemistry.
3. Mario R. Capecchi, Sir Martin J. Evans and Oliver Smithies "for their discoveries of principles for introducing specific gene modifications in mice by the use of embryonic stem cells" in Biology.
4. Doris Lessing "that epicist of the female experience, who with scepticism, fire and visionary power has subjected a divided civilisation to scrutiny" in Literature.
5. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and Albert Arnold (Al) Gore Jr. "for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change" in Peace category.
6. Leonid Hurwicz, Eric S. Maskin and Roger B. Myerson "for having laid the foundations of mechanism design theory" in Economics.
Well, actually there is no nobel prize in biology. It is either in Physiology or Medicine and not biology as a whole. And well sadl, there is none for mathematicians. There are many interesting theories behind all this. But the one I found most interesting was this, as wiki states :
Myth has it that Nobel refused to endow a mathematics prize after his wife (or mistress, depending on the story) had an affair with the mathematician Mittag-Leffler. This story is unlikely, as Alfred Nobel never actually married.[16]
For other stories see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobel_Prize
To the hotness that is Kunal Kapoor !
I died the day I saw him in RDB. Oh my god!! He makes me go crazy. He made me understand what madness was. He is so damn good looking! He is the GOD of good looks, cuteness and hotness.
I love him. I am an AC of him. If I ever meet him , I am sure my heart will stop functioning. "Laga chunari mein daag" again gave me the pleasure of watching "his hotness".
wooooooooooooooooooof! I love u man. Kunal Kapoor u rock! Looking forward to seeing "Aaja nachley" . Waiting to be slaughtered again [:D]

High Places by Nina M Osier
Did you design the cover?
Did your publisher design the cover?
Did you get to give any input about the cover design?
Yes; the artist (who was also my editor for this book) asked for my ideas, and she used them to good advantage.
Is there an interesting story behind the cover design? If so, please share the details.
The book is science fiction, and its setting is a mountaintop on an alien world where two ships have crashed many years apart. I asked for a cover that would attract readers who want to read such a story. That's why the mountain and the starship! The green background is from the color of the planet's sky as Humans perceive it from the ground.
Who is the cover artist?
Shelley Rodgerson
Are you happy with the cover?
Yes, very happy.
If not, what would you change and why?
Not a thing. She took my complicated ideas and made them simple and elegant.
Tell us what you think is the best part of the cover.
The two moons in the green sky. Another detail that adds so much to the "otherness" a science fiction cover ought to have.
Is there anything else about your cover that we need to know? Feel free to share.
It's typical of the covers provided by my publisher, Write Words. It appears on both editions, eBook (in all the usual digital formats) and trade paperback, and it works equally well in both places. That's not always true of cover art.
Please provide your website link.
What is the link to buy your book?
http://www.writewordsinc.com/high-places-p.html (paperback) and http://www.writewordsinc.com/high-places.html (eBook)

Fight Spam With SPF?
It's so easy to forge the "From" address of email, so spammers place any address in the "From" field. Sometimes, they place your address, so you end up getting a lot of these bounced error messages. Aaaargh! Perhaps SPF can help?
SPF is a system that allows the delivery of email if there is proof that the address which appears in the "From" field really sent that email out.
I got excited when I read about what the Sender Policy Framework does.
After a few minutes, though, I couldn't shake that it's too good to be true feeling, so I did a search on SPF and found...
Jonathan de Boyne Pollard's SPF is harmful. Adopt it.
A person may own an entire domain and wish to submit mail, using mailbox names in his/her own domain as the envelope senders, directly from a system with a dynamically-assigned IP address (such as, for example, a portable system that connects via multiple ISPs).
Yikes. That may be a problem for mobile people who would like to send email no matter where they are. Thankfully, Jonathan presents an alternative in his article.
I'm beginning to move away from email, as far as this web site is concerned. Perhaps I'll just post a kind of comment board where people can post their questions. When that day comes, I'll probably get rid of the comment box below, because it tends to just fill up my Inbox with messages that I end up simply deleting.
Anyway, we'll see.
What about you? Is there still hope for email?

Location: Montreal
Current Temperature: 2 c
Christmas Outlook: It's gonna be a GREEN Christmas
THIS is what Montreal should look like about NOW !
BUT, noooooo … Global Warming
Maybe El Nino …
Mother Nature …
We are getting a real fuck you Christmas this year. No Snow !!!
And next week we will see days, DAYS worth of rain instead.
The weather has been shitty damp and cold. Whatever snow we would have gotten recently, fell in the form of rain. And that rain has been falling for days, where all points East, North and Across the Maritimes, the snow is piling up.
Last night I went to visit Baby Mama and the baby, and it was pissing rain, enough to warrant carrying an umbrella, but not really needing it, but my clothes got sodden wet anyways.
Mama flew home to Newfoundland this morning bright and early for a couple of weeks. We are hoping she completes her trip in full and not come home early because of assholes and attitudes and dysfunctional family … Let Us Pray !
This week trading was rough. The loonie sank to an all time low for the first time in years. Cross Border shopping was terribly painful to say the least. My bank account took a massive hit with the exchange.
I did shop with sellers I buy from regularly, so I am getting what I paid for indeed. Even if it cost me substantially more than usual.
I am home alone right now, and I thought to go do some Christmas shopping on my own, but before I set out, I checked my sellers for in store stock, so I did not have to make a wasted trip in case stock was out. AND it was OUT. Indigo is local, so shopping online was the way to go, and that's what I did.
I kill for good books to read. Tonight I bought Reza Aslan and his book, "Zealot … The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth" and Pope Francis … "Untying the Knots" by Paul Vallely. This is an updated version of the original book with additional chapters, which is an ongoing report of the Pontiff.
Speaking of books, I am reading an incredible book written by Donna Tartt, "The Goldfinch." This book won the Pulitzer Prize.
A couple of weeks ago, I went book shopping, And I picked this book up cold, off the shelf, just on its blurb on the back and decided to buy it along with another book, "Why Men Lie" by Linden Macintyre, which is the second book in a series I started reading some time ago.
The Goldfinch is a BIG Book. And it is fantastically written. It is the story of a young boy, who along with his mother, visit a famed New York Museum to see some art, to get out of a rain storm.
A bomb explodes, mom is killed, and what happens next is the adventure I will let you go read for yourself.
Many of our men are gone for the holidays, so meetings are going to be sparse until the beginning of January. It is a week till Christmas and there is not a FLAKE of SNOW anywhere. Which is a total pisser.
What good is Winter, if you ain't got no snow ???
It spoils the whole mood of the holidays with bare sidewalks and pissy rainy weather every night…
There is more to come, Sunday I take my 14th anniversary cake at the Sunday Evening Meeting. That's when I will write my year end review for you. Life is progressing nicely so I don't want to write prematurely while the roller coaster is still in motion.
And soon after Christmas we will each get our Word Press Year in Review report for 2015. I am looking forward to reading all the stats over the last year, you will see it when it is released.
Stay tuned …

Is your confidence knocked by stained, chipped or misshapen teeth? These problems can all have a major impact on our self-esteem, but did you know they can be corrected in one very simple, minimally invasive procedure? At City Dental, we are proud to provide dental bonding, a quick, convenient treatment that will have you smiling with confidence in just one appointment!
We use dental bonding to treat a vast range of dental imperfections. Our clients are often amazed at how instant the results are when they visit us with the following issues:
If you've experienced gum recession and root exposure as a result, we can also use dental bonding to stop your teeth from feeling sensitive to hot and cold temperatures.
This gentleman came to us as he was unhappy with the gaps between his front four teeth. He also didn't like the uneven edges and colour of the teeth. A course of home whitening was done before using composite bonding to close the spaces and straighten the edges of the teeth. This was done in a single visit without the removal of any tooth structure.
One of the best things about dental bonding is we can do it in a single appointment, so you don't need to wait long to smile confidently again!
Before we begin the bonding procedure, we'll have to roughen the tooth's surface so that the resin can bond to it easily. Once this is done, we'll use a special layering technique apply a tooth-coloured resin to restore, reshape or build up the damaged tooth, moulding it for a perfect fit.
As soon as you're happy with the position of the resin, we will harden it using a curing light. Then all that's left to do is sculpt and polish your tooth to give it a smooth, even finish. The best part is, you'll be able to see the stunning results right away!
Dental bonding can be used in a variety of cases and some of its fantastic benefits include:
If your confidence is suffering because you don't have the smile you'd like, dental bonding could be the treatment for you. Call City Dental today to book a consultation.

The idea for this poem came from a prompt from Brazen Snake Books. If you're looking for inspiration, you really should check them out. There are new prompts, both poetry and prose, each Monday. And if you don't see one you like off the bat, scroll down for heaven's sake! There's sure to be one in an earlier post.
This one was from October 9 and said: Write a poem from the perspective of a squirrel gathering nuts for the winter. How cute is that? I just couldn't resist. :-D
* ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ *
Here's a nut, there's a nut,
what's under this big leaf?
Watch out it might be a trap -
it's not, to my relief.
I'll put it here, I'll put it there
then look around for more.
Winter's coming - hurry, hurry
build up the winter store.
Run and pause, run and pause,
nose twitching in the breeze -
chitter at the cat below -
he's such fun to tease.
Careful, careful, have a care
upon the wire high -
a better way to cross the street
if you're brave enough to try.
A trap, a trap, look out a trap!
In that garden there -
that human's out to get you
though there's plenty there to share.
Scurry, hurry, careful now
to the feeder just in reach
I see it's filled with seeds today
oh, won't those blue jays screech!
Jump and climb, climb and jump
move from tree to tree -
race through leaves and branches,
chirp out loud in glee.
Home again, home again
my nuts are safe inside
the hollow tree I call my home -
this stash a source of pride.

Juventus have revived their interest in Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes, reports Mundo Deportivo.
The Bianconeri wanted the Portugal international during the summer but neither Barca nor the player were willing to listen to offers.
However, Juve are keen on Andre Gomes again as they are unlikely to land another midfield target, Leon Goretzka – Bayern Munich and Barca are leading the chase to sign him from Schalke.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Juve have sounded out Gomes' camp and are aware that Mauricio Pochettino wants the 24-year-old to bolster Tottenham's midfield options.
It is believed that Spurs have spoken with Gomes' representative Jorge Mendes, while Juve want to sign him on permanent basis in January or on loan with an option to buy.
Gomes told his agent Mendes not to listen to offers for him during the summer as he wanted to stay at Barca and he will decide his own future again in January.
