We would like to once again say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for our divine wedding photos, which we could not have imagined to be more beautiful. We waited for our photos fully excited and when they arrived they were delicately packaged like a precious gift with love and class. You both captured our wedding day in such a relaxed way. Dear Nicole, you were caring and always asked if I needed anything e.g. a drink while getting ready and made sure our wedding rings were nicely arranged for the ceremony. Many things that weren't actually part of your 'job'. At the same time you fought like a lioness to make sure we had enough time for our couples photos to ensure the best possible outcome. This really shows how much you love your job and how wholeheartedly you work. Dear Steven, you are super chilled and charming and I'm sure you guys also had lots of fun together. : ) When looking at our photos we can instantly feel all the emotions of our big day again. So natural authentic and beautiful! We can recommend you to 10000%. If we have the opportunity to do another shoot with you in the future we would be delighted! Warm hugs,
Dear Nicole, dear Steven, thank you so much for having been part of our big day and capturing it for eternity. It is simply wonderful how you managed to not only capture images but also all the emotions. As a result we get happy tears every time we look at our photos and we instantly feel it again… this beautiful warm and fuzzy-in love-being loved- insanely happy-thankful- feeling. Thank you so much for that also for making it feel like you were part of the family. Thanks! Thank you also for gifting us with some vital sugary sweetness, your incredible sensitivity, your intuition for the right moments and your empathy : ) We really hope to see you again soon.
Dear Nicole, dear Steven, thank you so so much for those incredibly gorgeous pictures of our wedding! You were so amazing and it was just so much fun to spend the day with you. We can tell that you put so much love and passion into your work, it's visible in the photos and we noticed it from the very first moment! And when we received our package with the album and the USB with the images – Amazing! We felt all the emotions and fun of the day once more. Thank you for everything! <3 Lots of love,
We are beyond happy! The first impression was so nice already. Such lovely packaging with the small extra prints and the beautiful USB case – just a dream! We've spend the past 3.5 hours in front of our screens looking at all the wonderful images and were able to relive every single moment once more. You two didn't just capture our portraits superbly, but also captured so many amazing details and candid moments. Or simply put: you captured our wedding day in the exact way we wished for. You did an amazing job and we are above all so thrilled that we had you two beautiful people by our sides. It was so relaxing and as if we had known you for so much longer. Maybe there's a chance we can meet again – we'd like that very much. Thank you so much for being so close yet so inconspicuous on this day!
Dear Nicole and dear Steven, from the very beginning it was clear for us that we need the perfect photographer for our wedding. And with you guys we have found just that! You two are so friendly and kind, we felt comfortable from the start. The images are so divine and the photo album is most beautiful of all – created and packaged with such love. Thank you so so much!
Thank you Nicole & Steven for such stunning photography! Filled with love, creativity and attention to detail – your work speaks for itself! Professional online gallery with polished final product – receiving the album was better than birthdays and holidays combined! Not your average photographers, you have gone above and beyond for our surprise wedding. Eternally grateful to you for giving us a beautiful reminder of the best and fastest day of our lives <3 xx
We had the privilege to have our maternity images captured by Nicole last summer. With so much love for detail she achieved to put our baby belly in perfect scene. We felt absolutely comfortable from start to finish and the results, which we didn't have to wait long for, could not be more beautiful. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your fantastic work! We felt so relaxed and were able to enjoy ourselves during our ceremony and the portrait shoot in the heath without "distracting camera flash". That's just how we imaged it and what we wished for! : -) There are so many beautiful pictures and it was just so much fun! We have no problems recommending you! From our first meeting through to your editing, you always listened and respected our thoughts and wishes. Thank you from Sina and Jasper.
Dear Nicole, dear Steven, once again we would like to say thank you for your service before, during and after our wedding day! We felt extremely well taken care of from the very first minute and with it were able to enjoy our photo shoot. The images exceeded all our expectations! Thanks to you we will be able to think back on our wonderful day for a very long time.
How often in life do you meet people that you just like? And how likely is it that these people will photograph your wedding? We were so lucky to have found Nicole and Steven! With their authentic, unagitated and unbelievably friendly way we were able to enjoy our day in the most relaxing way. And when we look at our photos we are certain we made the right decision in booking them. Capturing true moments in the best quality is a real form of art – and Nicole and Steven are true artists. Thanks a million for making our special day unforgettable.
Dear Nicole and Steven, we would like to thank you for not just being a part of our day but making it truly magical. We feel extremely lucky to have found you as our photographer. You both made us feel completely at ease and calmed any nerves we might have been feeling with your relaxed and friendly nature. We had a wonderful time and the pictures are beyond beautiful. We will definitely recommend you to anybody that asks (maybe even some who don't), and the next time we need photos we know who to call.
We found Nicole and Steven through a friend and fell in love with their style. When I first spoke to Nicole she had such a beautiful friendly nature and I knew we were going to get along perfectly. She went above and beyond to make us feel happy and relaxed on the day. Both her and Steven were amazing with directions, and then we got the photos… wow!!! they are just stunning! We love love them soo much!! thank-you Nicole and Steven for making magic. You truly are talented.
It was a very intimate photoshoot after our church ceremony where we could take a break from all the nervousness and excitement and just enjoy each other. Through it we realised how unique this moment was. Your unobtrusive and clear directions made our beautiful wedding photos possible and they will always remind us of our special day.
We had a very nice family photo shoot with the lovely Nicole. : ) As it was our first photo shoot it was amazing that Nicole helped us with natural poses and suggestions! Though the time was limited we never had the feeling that any of the scenes or poses were rushed and we even got a bit of extra time. All in all we felt very comfortable and can only give praise! : )
Our wish for personal and natural images were fulfilled beautifully. Your sensitive intuition and ability to see and capture true moments at just the right time, which we would not have been able to do ourselves, proves that we made the right decision in choosing you. We can tell that you two put so much joy and love into your work, take time and with it wonderful care for your clients. For that we would like to thank you very much!
Dear Nicole, dear Steven, we are sitting here with huge smiles on our faces combined with tears of joy looking at all our beautiful memories, which you two made possible. Your photos captured all these wonderful and lively memories and looking at them lets us go back in time to both days and feel all these emotions again. How you two were by our side and next to photographing even helped us along the way with advise and care was just perfection. You aren't just incredible photographers but also kind hearted and funny people – we could not have picked anyone better! : )
I was in need of some good and unique portraits for my resume. My colleague recommended Nicole, as she had gotten her picture taken with Nicole before. Contacting her was very easy and quick and she was super friendly. We quickly found a session and in the same week I had my appointment. Luckily the weather didn't disappoint. The photo shoot was very good and the photos fit my resume perfectly. Overall I am very happy with Nicole and I had a lot of fun too. I already know that I will go back to her for my next photo shoot. Thanks again for my beautiful photos Nicole. : )
Dear Nicole, dear Steven, we are more than impressed with our beautiful photos. These memories could not have been more stunning. You guys are not just super photographers but also incredible people. From helping with getting into the dress, or giving us a look filled with love telling us to take deep breaths or having a tissue handy in the perfect moment. You are doing a wonderful job and with it captured our day with so much love. We were able to just be ourselves, without stress. We didn't have to wait long until we received the results. Everything was amazing. We've recommended you to others already and will continue to do so. Thank you so much for the cherry on the top perfection on our magical day. You and your work is superb!
We are incredibly thankful to Nicole and Steven for making the long journey to the coast to capture our small, informal wedding. We could feel how much love and passion both put into their photography business, from the moment we first met. They weren't just extremely valuable to us on our big day, but we are certain no other photographer would have been able to calm our nerves and make us feel relaxed and comfortable and with it were able to capture every moment without us even noticing. Thanks to Nicole, 'Team Bride' even won the garden game. ; ) When our USB finally arrived in our letter box, we just had to take a moment to enjoy the beautiful packaging – although we couldn't wait to see the photos. After all, you don't get such lovely packages every day. Dear Nicole, dear Steven, thank you for your tireless effort, your spontanious and uncomplicated but still serious and professional working process. The images really do speak for themselves! Thank you for having been a part of our wedding day in a way that we can say it was truly the best day of our lives!
We could not have asked for a better photographer team for our wedding! Nicole and Steven travelled from across the country to capture our big day. Through their indescribably kind and professional approach we were able to relax and be ourselves and put the nerves to the side. They were with us from the moment we got up and with it were able to capture many beautiful moments throughout the day. Our photographer couple blended into the background during the ceremony but somehow still managed to capture every moment perfectly. They respected and fulfilled our wishes with so much love making every image unique and special. Our waiting time was made easy as our client gallery gave us beautiful sneak peeks of what was to come. All in all – we felt happy and contented and had so much fun with Nicole and Steven! Thanks a million!
We are very happy about our decision of choosing Nicole & Steven Photography! We felt relaxed from the moment we first met and is was quickly obvious that our ideas and how we imagined our photos to be matched very well. Our wish for natural and candid moments were wonderfully captured and we received great help with the poses. Through the fast editing process we got to see a very convincing result in our first look shortly after the wedding. This quality was later also reflected in the entire photo series. It's a pleasure looking at our photos and although it has only been a short time since our wedding, we always enjoy remembering these little moments which we would've forgotten all about otherwise. We really liked your website and your work reflects it wonderfully. The direct and uncomplicated communication process made everything very easy. On top of that you had no problem with our special requests, which we really want to thank you for! That's why we can recommend you without hesitation. Thank you for being a part of our wedding!
A lovely email from Nicole got me, after almost two years after our wedding, to have a look at Nicole and Stevens beautiful website once again. Seeing that we're still in contact speaks for itself. Nicole and Steven keep their promise in style of their website as well as numerous images: a married couple that next to photographing, treated us as a married couple with so much kindness on our wedding day just as they treated each other. We felt very comfortable in our first meeting as well as on our wedding day. And we're sure both affected the stunning images in a very positive way. We especially enjoyed the way they took photos from different angles. That resulted in beautiful memories, which were very tastefully packaged and personally delivered. Anyone who is planning their wedding and looking for a photographer should be quick and book with Nicole and Steven, before the they're booked out!
I enjoyed my experience with Nicole and Steven a lot. My tension was taken immediately and the atmosphere was very personal and relaxing. It was my first photo shoot and I didn't really know what I was supposed to expect. But through the easy going and natural way of their work I felt welcomed and well taken care of. I can only recommend them! The website is nicely made and has a good structure so that everything can be found easily. There is nothing to improve on. Keep everything the way it is.
I had my first photo shoot with Nicole and Steven almost three years ago. Many more followed. Your work is very professional and I always have lots of fun during the photo shoots. You guys have helped me so much with my modelling and acting career and I cannot thank you enough. I can only recommend you!!
We felt soooo comfortable. Our wedding day was perfectly captured. Nicole listened to our wishes and we felt totally relaxed. The results blew us away and in the end we took more photos than initially agreed on. We could view and choose our images two days after the wedding. What more can you ask for? On top of that was the amazing and most importantly friendly service throughout and the nice evening we had receiving our finished package. A super team, uncomplicated, flexible and and and… highly recommended! The website is beautiful and subtle. Sometimes less is more and in this case 100% true. There is nothing to improve. Simply stay the way you two are!
We booked Nicole & Steven for our wedding and they accompanied us for 2 days. We clicked immediately, they could basically read our minds and we felt very very comfortable during the photo shoot. It was a relaxing ambience and so we could unwind and enjoy every minute of it. We can only recommend them to everyone! The final images which we received were amazing, the album was beautifully made and overall leaving us with a lovely memory of this wonderful time in our lives!
You guys! We had a wonderful day with you two. Your flexibility and openness towards our wishes was super. The great preparation really helped us and we felt as if everything fell into place on its own on the day. The images are outstanding and we love thinking back on our big day – thanks for capturing these memories. We can recommend you without hesitation, you two are such a pleasant couple with a great photographic eye for photos and candid moments.
We felt very comfortable and had so much fun. It was a relaxing, harmonic and fun photo shoot and we're so happy to have had you as our photographer on our big day. Your website is beautiful and subtle, which I personally prefer over an overloaded page. Through it we received a good insight into your work and skills. Is there anything we could improve on? No we don't think so. But we hope you two will continue to have lots of fun with your work and stay as cool, relaxed and alive as you are!
We felt very well taken care of by Nicole. Luckily the weather played along too. Unfortunately our little Mats wasn't in the best mood… But the photos turned out really well regardless. We will definitely choose you again if we want to get our photos taken next year!
Thank you so much for our beautiful photos. It was such a nice afternoon in a relaxed yet professional ambience. We felt super comfortable and had lots of fun! Definitely worth recommending!!! Great website with wonderful inspirations. Stay the way you are!
Dear Steven, I'd like to officially thank you for your commitment for the photo series for THW Celle. Your uncomplicated, but very professional expertise lead to these fantastic photos which we can now use accordingly. Your images were so great, that we will now redecorate our entrance hall and display them as our 'helper's gallery'. With it we can absolutely recommend you and wish you lots of happy clients that are just as satisfied as we are. We look forward to further cooperative work. Than you and kind regards.
– Ralf Welschhoff – Ortsbeauftragter, THW OV Celle
The photoshoot was awesome! Nicole has a great eye for right poses and managed our photoshoot very professionally. She took great care of our baby daughter and our dog as well. The editing process was very extremely fast and we are more than happy with the results. Thank you for the great experience! We will definitely contact you again if we need photos again and will recommend you to others!
We came across the many great and extraordinary images on Nicole and Steven's website and booked them for our wedding. Everything went impeccably from our first meeting to receiving the end results. We got along superbly from the very beginning. On the day of the wedding both were present in various spots in our church resulting in many images from different perspectives. The bridal portrait session afterwards was unforgettable, time just flew by! Nicole then took some beautiful candid photos at the reception, which rounded off the package perfectly. The edited images are absolutely beautiful and many of them are on the walls of our families' homes, making it easy to relive this wonderful day!
I would like to thank Nicole for the amazing photo shoot. She did my hair and make up which looked great. We took photos with various poses and outfits. It was a wonderful afternoon. I had lots of fun and the photos turned out beautifully. Everyone who sees my photos is asking me where I got them done.
We had a wonderful day and thanks to Nicole we had one job only: enjoy. Thank you so much for your super organisation, creative ideas and the magical ambience you created. Very reliable and relaxing work collaboration.

Losers are always in the wrong.

That one will become a king or an outlaw depends on whether he is successful or not. Legitimacy belongs to the victor. This proverb indicates that the winner takes complete control of authority that no one can challenge; the loser finds it hard to vindicate himself.

By Nigel Watson and Alex Graham
Innovation without a purpose is all light and no heat, or for the water industry a decorative fountain fed by a leaky pipe. In this article Nigel Watson, Information Services Director at Northumbrian Water Group and Alex Graham, Principal Consultant at Egremont explain how sustainable innovation works in practice and how to mobilise the workforce behind it.
At its core innovation is creativity that creates value, so in order to be innovative we, the water companies and their partners, need both the creative 'sparks', such as design sprints and data hacks but also the ability to make sure these ideas come to fruition. This comes in the form of change management to ensure ways of working are sustainably altered to affect a systemic change and generate return on investment.
To achieve sustainable innovation, it is helpful to think in three separate time horizons. The first of these are the short-term wins that ensure incremental innovation, the life blood of day to day operations working on a one-year horizon. There is a deep well to be tapped by giving frontline teams the support, data, tools and techniques they need to help them to solve their own problems locally. This will drive incremental continuous improvement and iron out inefficiencies within the current framework. The key to success is to enable the workforce by upskilling them and rewarding managers (not just monetarily) to share the newly identified best practice across the business. Egremont worked with NWG to develop new management information and implement Lean approaches such as Team Performance Hubs for frontline managers, giving them improved KPIs plus a forum and tools to problem solve in each operational depot/site.
NWG are also investigating how to draw on the vast bank of knowledge retained by their retired technicians, by dialling in their knowledge from offsite on very short term contract as 'trouble shooting consultants' when advice is needed. Instead of losing valuable knowledge when technicians leave the business, the relationship is retained to be drawn on in the future.
For solutions that have a longer time horizon, NWG use design thinking - a 'think, make, do, iterate' methodology, to run innovation events off site which draw on a wide pool of knowledge from both inside and outside the company. Over a 3-5 day period NWG staff and invited guests following a defined structure to work through a thorny new problem and workshop different scenarios to create a new way of working.
One such event focused on deep analysis of data from pumping stations to predict which stations were highly likely to fail. The target was to cut pollution events by 80%. The key to implementation success here is a robust end to end job resolution process which Egremont supported NWG to implement with controls / measurement and management practices so that when asset failure was imminent the right crews attended the right jobs at the right time. For the pumping stations this meant ensuring the operators and maintainers were engaged in the project from the start and motivated to act when the data science predicted pump-station failure. All the innovative efforts would have counted for nothing if the frontline failed to fix the asset once the risk had been identified.
For the by-stander this is where innovation thrives – those headline grabbing, blue sky gazing ideas which make a company seem so cutting edge but often never become reality. This is where NWG work on the low probability Moon Shot ideas by scanning the market to see what they can learn from related sectors and the world at large. The biggest project in this area is a collaboration with Newcastle University to build an 'innovation street' with advanced telemetry integrated into every house. The idea is to create a house that changes with the lifestyle of the occupants and can be managed by external agencies to even out demand for key utilities i.e. if the street floods can the outflow of water from the appliances in the house be paused to allow the water to drain?
The best ideas in the world will only work if leaders take seriously both the creativity stage and also developing the conditions to enable a sustainable change to actually create value. This means being prepared to back innovation over the long term, understand that it can take 10 ideas to get one that really works and being brave enough to think well beyond the next financial year or next AMP cycle.
With pressures on cost increasing every year the value realised by innovation, as opposed to how much creativity is generated, often comes down to how the business responds to the changes needed. This is where a motivated workforce is essential, employees should be bought on board early so that they feel part of any new innovations. Only then will these new ideas move from beyond the white board into our everyday work practices and the homes of our customers.

Dear Henry, you need some blood and thats ok
July 10th was the first we had heard of a possible blood transfusion. The doctor said Henry and baby's this size only have about 2 ounces total of blood in their little bodies, and with all of the tests they run, sometimes they need a little help.
Henry needed the help.
So that night Matt and I sat from 10:15pm to 12:15am and watched this syringe with not very much blood go into Henry's little IV in his foot. There are things that can go wrong... but they are few and far between so we tried to focus on all of the good this will do for him, most importantly this added blood will help the oxygen travel throughout his body easier.
We went home and waited, by 2am we hadn't received a phone call, which meant that nothing was wrong, but we wanted to make sure. Matt called, and sure enough Henry was not rejecting the blood and we were in the clear. I was so glad to hear this but I still worried about our little one...The part I just couldn't get off my mind was that the transfusion meant that Henry wouldn't be able to eat for 36 hours. They assured me that he was still getting his nutrients through IV, the thought just made me sad.
The next morning, July 11th, when we went in, it was obvious that the blood was making Henry feel good, his color was good, his heart rate was good, his blood oxygen content was good and he seemed content.
my favorite part of the day was that Matt got to hold Henry again.... but this time was even more special because He left Matt a gift... a little pee stain!
Later that day Henry would be getting a scan on his heart... the next worry is a hole in his heart or un closed valves or a murmur. At this point we didn't know what any of that meant.... but we would find out soon enough...

Need some help with PySide
Presupuesto $10-30 USD
I am trying to setup a socket client/server so that I can send command line arguments to an already running app instance using PySide. In the client example in the attached script, the client checks to see if the exe process [login to view URL] "pyinstaller compiled [login to view URL]" is already running and if not it opens the exe and sends the arguments.
Example usage:
python [login to view URL] --data randomtext
The server takes the entered argument "randomtext" and prints it out to self.label.
The code works with PyQt just fine but with PySide when calling self.server.server_close() during the close event it gives this error:
File "C:\python36\lib\[login to view URL]", line 41, in _fileobj_to_fd
raise ValueError("Invalid file descriptor: {}".format(fd))
ValueError: Invalid file descriptor: -1
I know it has to be something real simple to fix it but I just can't seem to figure it out. I think [login to view URL] in the Qthread is being garbage collected or not passing the value to run correctly or something.
I'd just like this code to work properly and stop the server when the app is exited or for you to create a similar simple app that works like my example and use the built in socket methods that PySide offers "QTcpSocket etc" instead of using socketserver.
Also, if you have a better idea of how to check if the app is already open or not when the client script is ran I'd appreciate seeing what you come up with for that too. It works perfectly fine though so no need to really worry about it.
I am using Python 3.6 and regular PySide, not PySide2.

When I started to this blog, I wanted to give a name that is powerful and can reflect the spirit of whole blog inclusively, therefore I decided on 'From Famagusta' . Because, many of my thoughts and big part of my personality is shaped in this city, where I spent 4 years at my university education.
It is not possible to skip the story of Oza Coffee while living in this city, because everyone drinks Oza specially in the morning. It is known for its dark roasted turkish coffee among the people. The brand is very much associated with Famagusta, in other words it is part of the city culture. It is possible to observe this fact from the market shares of Oza in other cities of Cyprus. This is a unique place where each city has different coffee taste and culture, therefore different brand preferences.
Last spring, I made a project in the international business course with two classmates of mine about Oza Coffee, its market share, company history and structure, a close look to their international operations and how the company is getting affected from Cyprus problem. I remembered this project, when I wanted to talk about the story of Oza in this blog. I was happy to find it on my laptop, and read it once again after one year. It is really influential and really deserves to be shared. But, when I finished my reading, I realised that it is around 4,000 words. definitely a long one!
I tried a bit to cut it, or restructure it in a shorter way. In the end, I decided that the story will make sense fully, only if I share the whole 4,000 words. Those words are not only talking about the company, but also talking about the history of coffee, a bit of politics and the unique situation of northern part of Cyprus. So take the warning, it is long. But if this introduction lines mobilized your curiosity inside your heart, just follow it, take your time and enjoy the story !
Nowadays, the coffee drinking habit is an important part of turkish culture. Of course it is not only popular with Turks, but widely being used in every corner in the world. We hear a lot of comments like ' I didn't drink my coffee yet, i cannot be productive' . There is a Turkish saying very common which is ' bir kahvenin kırk yıllık hatrı vardır' which means one cup of coffee brings 40 years of respect to each other. An American novelist Gerturd Stein says that " Coffee is a lot more than just a drink; it's something which is happening. Not as in hip, but like an event, a place to be, but not like a location, but like somewhere within yourself. It gives you time, but not actual hours or minutes, but a chance to be yourself, and have a second cup." (Arata, 2014, pp:1)
Nowadays, it is a very important element of culture that is a reason for addiction, new friendships, having a good conversation, waking up in the morning or just enjoying your moment. In every aspect, we believe that it is important. In this essay, we will have a close look at coffee from Oza Kahve operations in Famagusta, Northern Cyprus. We are going to analyze the company, their marketing activities, exports/imports, the strategies they are using to keep the market share, challenges and advantages that they are facing from their environment.
We interviewed Umut (second generation) and Ergun Oza (third generation), a second and third generation family members for this essay to get an insider view to the company. Furthermore, we used some resources from some articles on the internet as well. In the main discussion part, we will explain the company with a special focus on their international business activities that includes export and import from Northern Cyprus. According to companies website, they started to export their products to England in 1995 and recently to Turkey. At this point, I would like to point out that it is very important and a great success that Oza is doing International business that successful in very special conditions of Northern Cyprus. We will also talk about their future plans, how government policy affects them, how they are competing with their rivals in the North Cyprus market, and many more details. In the last part, we will conclude our essay with the suggestions for the future of Oza, the coffee sector in North Cyprus and world.
Before going into the background of Oza Company, I would like to give some background information about coffee. The history of coffee goes at least as far back as the 10th century, with a number of reports and legends surrounding its first use. The native (undomesticated) origin of coffee is thought to have been Ethiopia. The earliest substantiate evidence of either coffee drinking or knowledge of the coffee tree is from the 15th century, in the Sufi monasteries of Yemen. By the 16th century, it had reached the rest of the Middle East, Persia, Turkey, Horn of Africa, and Northern Africa. Coffee then spread to the Balkans, Italy and to the rest of Europe, to Indonesia and then to America.
The coffee plant, which was discovered in Ethiopia in the 11th Century, has a white blossom that smells like jasmine and a red, cherry-like fruit. Back then, the leaves of the so-called "magical fruit" were boiled in water and the resulting concoction was thought to have medicinal properties.
Coffee spread quickly through the Arabian Peninsula, and for 300 years was drunk following the recipe first used in Ethiopia. In the 14th century, a new method of drinking coffee was discovered: the beans were roasted over a fire, ground and then boiled in water.
In the mid 15th century, coffee cultivation reached Yemen. Yemen's climate and fertile soil offered the ideal conditions for cultivating rich coffee harvests. With its new brewing method and aroma, coffee's renosounce spread even further a field.
When coffee reached to the Ottoman Empire, it became that much more popular to an extend to affect the social life with the newly opened coffeehouses. In 1623, An attempt to ban coffee happened, because the Padisah (Sultan) thought that the opposition gained strength in coffee houses. ".After Murad IV claimed the Ottoman throne in 1623, he quickly forbid coffee and set up a system of reasonable penalties. The punishment for a first offense was a beating. Anyone caught with coffee a second time was sewn into a leather bag and thrown into the waters of the Bosporus.." (Blotnick,2013) .
Coffee is a popular beverage and an important commodity. Tens of millions of small producers in developing countries make their living growing coffee. Over 2.25 billion cups of coffee are consumed in the world everyday. Over 90% of coffee production takes place in developing countries, while consumption happens mainly in the industrialized economies. The top three producers of coffee are Brazil, Vietnam and Columbia.
Coffee is worth over $100 billionworldwide. Arabica and Robusta are the two main commercially grown and sold coffee beans. Arabica is the more common type of bean grown (70 percent of coffee is Arabica), and it's considered more flavorful. Robusta is hardier and cheaper, most commonly seen in instant coffee jars.
Arabica is the more common type of bean grown (70 percent of coffee is Arabica), and it's considered more flavorful. Robusta is hardier and cheaper, most commonly seen in instant coffee jars.
Coffee is a popular drink among Cypriots as well since many long years. Coffeehouses were the only centers of socialization for people in many villages. Unlike today, The production of Coffee had more simple technic, without a brand name and a mass production with machines.
Oza Coffee is operating in Business to Business Market. According to Oza Kahve official website information, The company was founded on March 28, 1984 by Ergun OZA. OZA Coffee's first workshop was an area of 15 square meters in the year of establishment. One coffee roster machine that was freehand and one coffee grinder existed in this workshop. Paper bags were being used. Oza Coffee was producing its product and serving people under hard conditions.
Oza Coffee enlarged its workshop area to 30 square meters from 15 square meters with self-denying works. One more coffee grinder was bought so two coffee grinders existed and instead of paper bag. OZA Coffee had continued to work with this system for three years, and after that the building's area was enlarged to 70 square meters.
In addition to this new building, it was going on to serve the domestic market with a factory conveyor system, four coffee grinders and coffee roster machine, wich has a 30 kg. capacity. OZA Coffee started to serve with a fully automated packaging system which was more modern and more practical in 1992.
As a result, supply and demand started to exceed company's expectations, they started to reap the rewards by starting to export to the LONDON (UK) market.
Manufacturing plant was enlarged because of the increasing demand for OZA Coffee and the rising level of work. In 1995 OZA Coffee laid the foundation of factory, that is serving now, after 11 years of the beginning of production.
Commenced a building on the facility, which was laid on the foundation, as 1300 square meters covered area on the 2000 square meters land. Front offices, board rooms and dining hall, which are the antacid and antibacterial apoxy seam filling, which are the requirements of ISO 9001:2008-ISO22000:2005. Production and stock facilities consists of 1000 standards. Which enabiling us to a daily capacity (8 hours) of 3500 kg. per day.
OZA Coffee manufactures its products and serves people under hygienic conditions and automation system which are acceptable to EU standards, in this facility. Additionally, I would like to point out that all these operations are happening only with 12 people who is working for the company.
According to the information that is written in the official website of the company their products are as followed;

Currently, dark roasted coffees are packaged in 100 gr aluminium packets, 250gr tin cans, and 1000gr& 500gr packets in zip locked special packets.
Main Discussion
North Cyprus Market
Oza Kahve Company has 42,5% share in the coffee market of Northern Cyprus. They have a promotion policy to protect their market share. For example, they are offering their customers free carton cups and one kilogram free for each 10 kilogram purchase. Additionally like Coca-cola, they are providing free nameplate, umbrellas with Oza logo and small repair supports to their customers. These actions are implementing to market as part of their differentiation strategy. Because there is no other coffee company that is providing the same things. This enables the company to keep and increase its market share in North Cyprus.
According to Ergun oza, some of their rivals are also selling carob products and dried-fruits. In other words their operations are split to different products. This puts them to a disadvantage for not focusing on coffee and increasing their market share and the quality of the product that they are providing. However, Oza Kahve is only operating in the coffee sector. This means they are able to focus on their coffee products and ensure that they are providing the best quality of their product in the best possible conditions. This is an obvious advantage for the Oza Company.
Umut Oza informed us about a very first move from a Cypriot coffee company that is happening which is the exciting news about , Oza coffee-house that will be opened in Ankara and Girne. Both will be operated as franchise. Girne will open in 10 days, Ankara will be after 1 month. The Coffee house that is going to be opened in Ankara will create several positive effects to company. For example, this will contribute to brand awareness and to their market share since consumers will have the opportunity to taste all products from the store. Additionally, the company will be able to Access the market more directly. This will give a chance and opportunity to increase exports to Turkey. Moreover, the company used customization strategy when designing these two stores. They found out that, the coffee shops in Turkey are usually in a restaurant-cafe concept, which has food as well. So, they adapted their store accordingly. But in North Cyprus, the coffee house will have a self-service concept with only coffee varieties.
Also, we can say that Girne branch will affect Oza Kahve's market share positively in North Cyprus. Since its less-known in Girne, this move will enable them to increase sales in the Girne region.
According to Ergun Oza, a third generation member of Oza family, the company became Lacimbali (a company who sells coffee machines) distributor in North Cyprus, and selling of these machines will start very soon in North Cyprus. Also he shared his dream about opening "Oza Barista School", an initiative that will train people to become barista. Because during the efforts for opening the coffee-house in Girne, he noticed that there is a shortage of barista's in the labour market of North Cyprus.
Cyprus Problem
We got classified information from the second generation director of Company, Umut Oza. Unlike the general belief, ' there is no embargo for TRNC' he stated. He added that the embargo is in our minds. North Cyprus has a unique economic and political condition. It's a country that is only recognized by Turkey. Therefore, all flights and trade is taking place via Turkey, in other words Trade is indirect with the rest of the world and this is creating extra costs to companies who wanted to involve in export-import business. This is the external factor that is affecting the companies about exporting and importing. The internal, and may be the most influential factor is the fact that companies in cyprus is not giving enough attention to their packaging and rules and regulations of other countries including Turkey.
Oza Kahve is exporting its products to Turkey, United Kingdom and to Lebanon. Additionally the coffee beans that they use in their productions are coming from Brazil according to the information that we received from company officials. Umut Oza said that, a ship from Brazil to Turkey comes for 1200 dollar and from Mersin Port to Famagusta he is paying 1000 dollar more for his purchase. It is obvious that this creates extra cost to company and causes expensive prices for North Cyprus Market. On the other hand, because Turkey is in the customs union with EU, it creates extra complications about exports, because we are not part of this single Europe Market as North Cyprus. He gives another example as well to this from his Business Negotiations for further export to Germany. The company is facing specific duty a tariff barrier because of the rules of German government. Mr. Oza stated that there is a 2,19 Euro tax for Turkish Coffee and 4,78 Euro tax for Instant coffee per kilogram, for the companies producing outside of EU market. This kills its ability to compete, and without being a EU member or a member of Custom Union it is not really possible to enter to Germany Market.
Umut Oza said that his company made export to Lebanon possible by recording products as Turkey Origin. That created advantage and easiness for entering into the Lebanon Market.
The government policy in North Cyprus is not fully protecting local producers against foreigners. Also, slowness of bureaucracy affects negatively the companies in general and Oza specifically. Additionally, it is very well-known fact that, our government is mostly focusing on salary payment of civil servants. They are too busy to satisfy their own group of people which is called corruption. Therefore, unfortunately there is no policy towards companies, economy and to the international trade in general that we can talk about. Umut Oza said that ' I wanted to express my complaints about how the government lack of control and audit the activities of companies. He said that he want government officials to come and check what they are doing, and if he is doing something wrong, they should shut them down. He added that we are doing everything according to European standards, but those who do not have standards and who do not have hygienic work, production factories are continuing to operate as well and that is creating an unfair situation.
There is a very famous saying in our culture which is "bir kahvenin kirk yillik hatri vardir", which means that a cup of coffee creates respect to each other for forty years.
Oza Kahve started its operations in Famagusta in 1984. Therefore, people of Famagusta have a strong habit of drinking double roasted Oza turkish coffee, which means they are not preferring other coffee brands at all. This gives great market share in Famagusta to the company which is more than 90 percent according to the company director. But in the capital city, Nicosia people mostly prefer lighter coffee with single roasted. They are mostly preferring Sultan, Con and Ozerlat. Kyrenia, are the same as Nicosia, they prefer single roasted coffee but Con is the more popular one there.
EXPORTS AND IMPORTS OF OZA- Doing International Business in North Cyprus
Oza company process 360,000 kg coffee beans for local market use and 28,000 coffee beans to foreigner markets.
Oza kahve is exporting its products to England since 1995. In 2015, The company started to export to Turkey and Lebanon. According to 2015 data figures that we received from the company during our interview,last year 10,221 kilogram processed coffee exported to Turkey, Lebanon and England. Interestingly, Lebanon had the biggest part in this figure with 6000kg coffee.The rest 4221 kg is exported to Turkey and England in the same year.
Oza coffee company is working with a foreign trade representative, an export agent in Turkey for this export operations, their main cooperation is about finding new markets in middle east, which partly achieved by Lebanon export. We learned in our MGMT308 course that, these types of exports are called Indirect exports .
Also, Oza Kahve is negotiating right now with companies from Slovenia, Germany and Macedonia, for further export of their products.
Mr. Oza also stated that the corruption and slowness in the bureaucracy of Mersin port creates problems for their exports. But he is lobbying and explaining these things to the Turkey officials during their visits.
Umut Oza told us that, Every country has their own different food quato and different standards, rules and conditions for the products that will enter into the country. He stated that, it is very important to understand this facts for making a successful international trade operation. Oza company started to adapt their standards and packaging accordingly to be able to continue to sell their products. For example, as we stated in the Cyprus Problem part, because of the specific duty for companies that are based outside of EU, it is not competitive to enter to Germany market for Oza. Fortunately, they were able to get Turkeys origin permission which enabled them to enter into the Lebanon market.
Oza company attends to many fair organisations for presenting and promoting their products to different nations and cultures. These fair organizations are:
- Iraq Agrofood 2013 (IRAQ)
- Istanbul Worldfood Exhibition 2013(TURKEY)
- Tüyap Adana Gıda Fuarı 2013(TURKEY)
- International Career Opportunities Forum and Cyprus Turkish Products Exhibition(TRNC)
- Vakantie Beurs Vakdag Holland 2013(NETHERLANDS)
- Iraq Agrofood 2012(IRAQ)
- Esidef 4 İş Geliştirme Platformu(TURKEY)
- ITB Berlin 2012(GERMANY)
Human Resources, Marketing And Social Media.
Oza Kahve is strong in the city that they born. In Famagusta, more than 90 percent of the market is dominated by Oza Coffee according to Umut Oza.
' Word of Mouth Marketing (WOMM). Isn't this really the original social media platform? I grew up with the famous Faberge commercial that showed a woman who "told 2 friends" about the product and how "they told 2 friends… and so on…and so on". Hasn't WOM always been a powerful way to influence business results? ' (Whitler, 2014, p:1). As we can see from a forbes article, word of mouth marketing is always the most effective one especially in the case of Cyprus. We can say that this is a strong reason about their dominance in Famagusta and lack of market share in the other parts of Cyprus. Because, their influence area with informal family and friend network is limited to Famagusta.
Also partly because of word of mouth and their wrong advertising, there is a strong perception in North Cyprus that, Oza company is only producing dark roasted coffee, and nothing at all. This creates a decrease in demands for Oza Products. In fact, they have single roasted turkish coffee and 3in1 varieties aswell.
Although they started to produce 3in1 instant coffee varieties for 2 years, it is not possible at all to find these products in Nicosia and Kyrenia. Umut Oza answered this question with the problems in their organizational structure. He stated that, one person cannot do everything properly, and it is a need to organize better marketing activities with young talented university graduates. For this reorganization he is waiting for his son to finish his education while training him inside of the activities of the company. This situation is a very common problem of the companies in Northern part of Cyprus. Because most of them started as family companies, they dont have proper management structure, therefore they are not able to use their capacity fully. Mr Oza said that, this is a big weakness to our company that is preventing a growth in our market share in the island.
Additionally, they are employing 12 people in the company. Mr. Oza said that 'we are doing the best to ensure that our employees are feeling themselves part of a big family, here we apply participatory decision-making by asking the opinions of other members of company as well
In this part you will find the SWOT analysis of Oza company, that we found out after our research about the company.
- Traditional Turkish hospitable
- Turkish Brand
- Family company
- Workers feel like family members in company
- Participatory decision making
- First company in Cyprus that produce 3in1 coffees
- Pure nature products
- Using of Social Media
- Marketing problems in all Cyprus
- Problem in Organization schemes
- People know Oza coffe produce only dark roasted coffees
- Importance of advertising
- Increasing of coffe culture in Cyprus
- Large coffe consumption
- Reach the potential people whose priority is tea
- Increasing of young population who likes coffee
- Decreasing cost with high technology
- Boycot of foreigner brands for some reasons.
- Importing foreign coffe products
- Increasing Coffe raw materials prices and it's cause increasing of cost of products in coffe
- Competitors offers new products
- Tending to healthy nutrition and demand for caffeine-free products
- Global economic crisis
In conclusion; Oza Kahve that began its operations in 1984 is a success story that is happening in Famagusta. It is a brand that is well-known in its home city and exporting its products to three country right now. Additionally they are the first who produce instant coffee in Northern Cyprus and first Turkish Cypriot company that enters to the coffee-house sector. However, they have the same characteristics with most of other companies in the island in terms of weaknesses about organizational structure, and this is something that prevents them from growing more. What we can say as a suggestion is, Oza Kahve will grow immediately, if they redesign their organizational structure.

It has been almost exactly half a century since the first synthesis of stishovite in shock experiments on quartz was reported, but its formation conditions during shock is still under debate. Here, we present direct transmission electron microscopic observation of stishovite within material recovered from high-explosive shock experiments on porous sandstone shocked at 7.5 and 12.5 GPa. Our observations allow for new conclusions on the genesis of stishovite in a close-to-nature environment. The formation of stishovite in short-time shock experiments proves that its crystallization is ultrafast <!–(<1 μs). Crystals were found only embedded in amorphous veins indicating homogeneous nucleation. Crystallization from melt rather than from glass can be concluded from the observation of roundish, defect-free crystals up to 150 nm in diameter embedded in nondensified glass. The formation of stishovite at 7.5 GPa is in accordance with the phase diagram of silica, if rapid undercooling is present that becomes only possible by the existence of small hot spots in an otherwise cold material, which is supported by transient heat calculation. The absence of coesite at 7.5 GPa suggests kinetic hindrance of its crystallization from melt and, thus, smaller critical cooling rates compared to stishovite where critical cooling rates are estimated to be as large as 1011 K s−1. While the amorphous veins containing stishovite represent unambiguously hot spots, no associated pressure amplification could be verified within these veins. The rapid liquidus crystallization of stishovite only in hot spots generated in porous material is an alternative formation mechanism to the widely accepted theory of solid–solid transition from quartz to stishovite and might represent the more general mechanism occurring in nature for low shock pressure events.

Term-limited Florida Governor Rick Scott continues his attack on Democratic Senator Bill Nelson with a new ad that hits Nelson as a 'party line voter." In the 30 second advertisement titled "Party Line", several people are interviewed, and one person details that Senator Nelson is "what's wrong with our broken Congress. Everybody is a party line voter and Bill Nelson is one of those."
Another person explains that "I think Nancy Pelosi is a huge influence on the Democratic party and Bill Nelson."
So far, the incumbent Senator has not taken to tv in what is surely the most expensive and closely watched race leading up to the midterm elections. In addition, the race is important because it's going to test the trust that the sunshine state has on the work that President Trump has done while in office. Florida is also a state that President Trump won in the 2016 Presidential election.
Governor Scott has recently broken with part lines on gun issues and on oil drilling, and the Governor has also attacked Senator Nelson on his negative impact on the economy and on being a "career politician."
Recent polls even show that political experts don't think that Senator Nelson will not win the race.
The advertisement can be seen below:

This is a guest post from Sheryl in Ontario, who is 40 years old with a grown daughter, and is trying to rebuild her retirement dream just 20 years too late for early retirement.
My full time job is in the admin department of a new car dealership. Part of my daily tasks is to process the paperwork after a customer has purchased and taken delivery of a vehicle. The difference in the amount of paperwork between a cash deal, and one that has been financed is substantial.
For a cash deal, the only paperwork needed is a bill of sale, 2 internal flow sheets (to make sure all the steps are taken properly to prepare the car for the customer), a copy of the ownership, proof of insurance, proof of payment, and any extended warranties (or waivers of purchase for warranties).
If the customer has financed,there is all of the above, plus the additional paperwork includes credit applications, proof of identity forms, loan contracts, copies of communications from the bank if the bank needs more than the standard data, proof of income forms, as well as either registration forms or additional waiver forms for payment protection or life and disability insurance.
Most dealerships I've had experience with, after you have agreed to purchase the vehicle, you are then taken to see the "Business Manager" , which is just a fancy title for another salesperson that sells financing, accessories, rust proofing, extended warranties and insurances. When paying cash, the time spent with this second person can be reduced significantly, as you have removed most of the items they would use to upsell you. A cash deal, there would mainly be accessories, extended warranties on the tires or mechanical components, or rust, fabric and paint protection. No payment protection, no life insurance, no using the extended warranty as a lure to make sure you have coverage for the term of your payments.
If you are anything like me, the less time I spend with a salesperson, the better; and if I can reduce the need / opportunity for them to spend time with me, I'll find a way to do it.
Save money on interest, save time and hassle, reduce paper usage by just paying cash.
