MBO completed at software firm SRO Solutions
Eccles-based software business SRO Solutions has undergone a management buyout. SRO has been taken over by the company's operations manager Andrew Carrie and technical manager and managing director Tony Lackey, while Steve Driver becomes non-executive director.
The new management team says their move is designed to maximise the current growth potential. The MBO was brokered by law firm Berman's and funded by NatWest for an undisclosed sum.
SRO is an accredited IBM Gold partner specialising in enterprise asset management solutions through IBM Maximo and its syster company DXSTRO.
The firm sells and implements IBM Maximo enterprise asset management software including full implementation, support and maintenance, system upgrades, data migrations, training, development and process re-engineering.
SRO was established in 2006 by Driver and Lackey and serves a global customer base of mostly mid to larger corporations across many sectors including oil and gas, nuclear, utilities and facilities management.
Lackey said: "Our aim now is to continue this growth particularly internationally. In 2017 we're opening an office in Atlanta to support our local partners in the US. Currently 25% of our revenue comes from America and we are looking to drive growth."
Jon Davage, a corporate partner in North West law firm Bermans' Manchester office who led the Bermans legal team which included Robin Hastings and Neil Mumford, said: "SRO is a fast-growing business.
"Tony is very experienced and has a great vision for the business and by maintaining Steve as a Non-Executive Director and mentor the business has a clear and bright future."

Leaf Rapids are a couple of Canadians moonlighting from the better known Winnipeg-based band Nathan, who have already released four albums since their debut in 2000. They are essentially a duo comprised of Keri Latimer and husband Devin Latimer. The band seems to exist as a vehicle for Keri to get her haunting and slightly surreal songs out through her own channels.
The songs are dreamy and haunting and drenched in aching pedal steel and several doses of the theramin that certainly give the songs an eerie quality that underlines their other worldliness. The songs are short and sweet and there isn't a singsl surplus word here. The title track, Lucky Stars, is a case to point. It's a song that is just dripping with haunted pedal steel guitar. Keri's aching vocal has a real depth of sadness and the small band of muicians set up a beautifull judged piece that evokes feelings of loss and sadness-all that with just 84 words-take that Leonard Cohen! That's followed by a positively bouncing 'Healing Feeling' that has a superb cutting guitar solo from producer Steve Dawson midway through. It has slightly more words than the title track but still manages to call out for a doctor, a poet, and a preacher. The whole album has a really fresh feeling and it's real melodies shine through.
There are two covers here, a mysterious and dark take of The Handsome Family's 'Don't Be Scared' from their album IN THE AIR that is a superb version of a truly excellent song. The album concludes with a brave cover of David Bowie's 'The Man Who Sold The World.' It's always a risk covering a song that's so well known as it gives anyone ammunition to deride what you do to a beloved tune. Doubly so in this case as Nirvana's own cover is so well loved that some think that Kurt Cobain actually wrote it. Happily the band gives us a beautiful understated version here that has a languid guitar introduction and a really haungint theramin enhancing closing coda and Keri's voice retains enough mystery and fear throughout to make the whole thing work really well.
The album has a really cohesive feel with a genuine flow from the dreamy opening tracks to the mystery contained in later songs like 'Welcome Stranger' and 'Vulture Lullaby.' There's much to admire here from Keri's cute but tough vocals to the virtuosity of the band and especially the fine fret work of the aforementioned producer/guitarist Steve Dawson.
The album is a real homespun affair with credit going out to the Canadian Government for support and Keri acknowledging the inspiration given by living "north of the 56th in Manitoba, Canada." Keri even designed the haunting cover too. An excellent album that repays repeated listening and is well worth searching out.

I thought I would make a quick "How-to" on setting wheel alignment since I was flipping my tie rod ends and I was going to have to re-align the wheels anyways.
Here's some of the tools you will need...
1.) Start with the ATV on a smooth and level surface, like a cement garage floor or driveway.
2.)Center up (Eyeball It) the handle bars and lock them into place with 2 ratchet straps, one on each side of handle bars. This of course prevents them from moving when your adjusting the tie-rods.
3.) Place two Jack Stands approximately 2 feet in front of the atv even with the outside edge of the two front wheels.
4.) Wrap a length of string all the way around the ATV and Jack Stands, Start and end at the rear hitch. Make sure the string is the same height from the ground on all 4 wheels. I like to attach a few elastic bands to both ends of the string before attaching the string to the hitch. This makes it easier to adjust the strings when moving the Jack Stands.
4.) Break lose the inner and outer tie-rod nuts. NOTE! Make sure you use 2 wrenches, one on the nut and one on the ball joint. Damage can occur by only using one wrench.
5.) Adjust the string by moving the Jack Stands in or out untill the string just touches both of the side surfaces of the rear tires on each side of the ATV. This will take some time to get it right but it needs to be done!
Check manufacturers wheel alignment specifications on your specific make and model before you adjust any components.
For this wheel alignment I'm using the Polaris Specs which seems to be a common setting.
Polaris - The recommended toe alignment is 1/8″ to 1/4″ toe out. This is a total amount, not per wheel.
6.) On the front rim, measure the distance from the string to the rim at the front and rear edges of the rim. The rear measurement should be 1/16″ - 1/8″ (.2 to .3 cm) more than the front measurement.

I was going to introduce this track with a couple of super strong reference artists - but screw that - 'cos while - if I said those names - you'd immediately go "Oh yes" and forever on associate Heddwen with them - that's doing these artists a disservice.
This is a cool track - perfect for the Grieve to list - the combination of melancholy music with a slightly ambiguous lyric but a hook that just says it all - allows it to burrow into your subconsciousness - a few listens and you'll be hooked.
Tracks like these have to be driven by a killer vocal performance - if you're going to set up a simple song structure it's gotta be all about how you deliver the story and here it's done beautifully. Blended harmonies allow the perfectly positioned vocal to make the case - and while it takes a few listens to wrap you head round what they're saying - the whole mood of the track leaves you in doubt that there's something shady going on.
And while as Katie from Heddwen says "I'd love to let people interpret the song however they want to. What I love about music it how people experience it so differently-- what I intended may be completely different than what someone hears when they listen." - If you've ever been in a disingenuous relationship - this one's going to resonate hard with you.
You can learn more about Heddwen here:
About the Curator - Andrew McCluskey
The first visual memory I have is that of the white upright piano in Singapore, Hell and the dark forces lived at the bottom, Heaven and the Angels at the top. They would play battles through my fingers and I was hooked.
Although I've always played, I haven't always been a musician. Most of my twenties were spent working with people, buying and selling and learning how the world works. It was in my thirties that I came to America and focused on music and began to develop music2work2.

- 1 pound tiny yellow new potatoes, each about 1-inch in diameter
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided
- 3 ears corn, cut into 1-inch rounds (about 6 rounds per ear)
- 1 cup arugula
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon white wine vinegar
- 1 pound top sirloin steak, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1-inch cubes
Return the pot of water to a boil and add corn. Cook for 1 minute until bright yellow and then drain and set aside to cool.
In a food processor, combine arugula, parsley, oil, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Process until the mixture resembles a smooth pesto; set aside. (Makes about 1 cup steak sauce.)
Alternate potatoes, corn and steak on skewers. (If using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes before assembling.) Season kabobs with remaining salt.
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat cooking. Arrange kabobs on the grill and cook, turning occasionally until steak is cooked to your liking, about 6 minutes for medium-rare.
Alternatively, preheat the broiler and place the oven rack 6 inches below the heating element. Arrange kabobs on a baking sheet and broil for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Serve kabobs alongside steak sauce.

I stopped saying my prayers a while ago.
Rather, I stopped believing that I should believe in them anymore. This could be just another early-twenties phase, who knows.
This may be the longest break I've ever taken from the church in my life, I haven't been in over a year, purposely, with the last time being at Joel Olsteen's Lakewood mega-church in Houston.
I can attribute many things to my upbringing in the church. I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for that and I am thankful for that. But quite frankly, it had never been my choice until now. Most of us did not have that decision to chose Christianity, it was just a thing that has been instilled and practiced since birth. This would be the most effective method to create a devoted follower, by planting the seed during the naive years of youth, when ones thoughts mirrors that of their parents. I was baptized at around 11 months old, obviously without much say on my part. This goes to say that yes, after 21 years, I finally have my own perspective and views on religion and religious practices.
What about other religions outside of Christianity?
One of the main things that has led to my waning beliefs in the church, is that their are hundreds of other religions, and billions of other people that believe in them. There are more people that know nothing about the teachings of the bible than those that do. Are they wrong, because they don't adhere to or acknowledge the beliefs that I was brought up with? How ignorant and arrogant of me would it be to even think that. Historically speaking, this idea of 'religious superiority' has been the case for many Christian believers. Nations have been conquered and destroyed on the basis of Christianity, as has been the case with many other religions. The teachings of Jesus and his followers have been well documented and kept for thousands of years, and people have vehemently followed them. Sometimes using the teachings and understanding of the bible as a means to claim superiority. But what makes the bible any more "right" than the Quran, the Torah, the Vedas, or the Animistic views of some of the Native Americans? Why have we claimed others ignorance in favor of our own superiority?
Yes, I believe that the bible is an excellent moral compass on how to lead one's life, and it does a great job of that, as it has done in mine. But I also believe that is not unflawed. The writers of the bible were human, just like me and were simply conveying a story from their own perspective. To me, this means that to have a differing opinion on its interpretation, or to disagree with the concept in general, should be okay. The moral teachings of the bible are relatable to all, but to believe them all and take them quite literally is almost ridiculous to me at this stage of my life. I believe that some of the writers engaged in extreme hyperbole, as many great writers have, to further instill the message to an audience that just wasn't as informed about the world as we are today. I've always said to myself that if the bible was written and distributed in the 1900s rather than a thousand years ago, people certainly wouldn't accept and believe the extreme levels of hyperbole, but be more astounded by it's moral teachings. I understand why it was hard for conquering 'missionaries' to assimilate the indigenous people by spreading the teachings of the bible, just because it's simply too unbelievable to be believed by anyone outside of a person that was brought up to believe just that.
Another issue I have with the Bible and Christianity in general, is the unbelievable expectations to uphold a life without sin. It's unnatural, as humans we make mistakes, we feel different ways about different things, because simply put: we are all different. I understand that the bible states that God loves all and will forgive the sins of anyone who repents to him, but this statement is all too paradoxical to me. We are taught by the bible that no sin outweighs the other and that almost all sins can be forgiven, but what happens after we ask for forgiveness, repent, and sin again? It's an unavoidable circumstance. Does God not love us all after we sin? Is this why most of us are condemned to 'hell'? Am I going to hell for thinking this? It's as if Christianity and the bible were constructed to be used as a scare tactic.
I also believe that religions (in my case Christianity), are used to provide protections to our mental state of fear, of the uncertainty of death. This is valid reason and a particularly appealing one, as to why many follow the teachings of the church, for fear of the uncertainty in after life, if there is an after life. We are all afraid to die, but this is one thing in life that we cannot avoid. I know personally that I don't want to die and just end forever, but my mind has been pondering on wether or not that is just a silly thought to think otherwise. No one alive has experienced being dead or ever intimately interacted with a dead person to answer this question of uncertainty, and this could go for either side of the argument.
None of this is to say that I don't believe in a God, but rather it's to say that I'm done with accepting the ignorance that has become the church to me, basking in the belief of unspoken "christianity superiority", rather than the equality and acceptance of all people under a God and practice that none of us can deem to be the right nor wrong one. I've reached the point where I can no longer allow myself to support the church or any religion that uses it's answer to the fear of death, as the basis for their being right about seemingly everything.
I may very well be wrong to you, but who are you to tell me that? God?

The Eureka! Programme will once again offer great opportunities during 2018 for students and their teachers to show their passion for and understanding of the value science and technology can deliver for New Zealand and the world.
We are making great changes this coming year to help Junior Eureka! students develop their inquiring minds, their reading, writing and analysis skills as well as their ability to explain what they have learned about how science and tech is applied in their community - look out for useful teacher resources and new ways student efforts will be recognised.
The Eureka! Video Awards will take a major step up and, with great support from our sponsors, we are looking for opportunities to showcase the best videos students produce.
The Sir Paul Callaghan Eureka! Awards will be our pinnacle event featuring cash prizes up to $10,000.
Our Scholarships will again be on offer to all students participating in the Sir Paul Callaghan Eureka Awards. We are looking for a number of new Scholarship sponsors
Unlike many other Scholarships ours can be applied in any year of tertiary study and are not limited to payment of fees - for instance, they can be used for purchase of laptops and other necessary tools as well as living and travel costs - we know our recipients will spend the money on things they need to succeed.
We are also looking widely for internships for our students to get access to summer holiday work experience and expect to have some good news on that front later in the year.
For 2018 we are initiating a two-step entry process.
The first part is an Expression of Interest registration - this will enable us to provide support and guidance to teachers and students focused on the elements of the Eureka! Programme they are interested in. Fill it in now to help us prepare for 2018.

Top UK Judge: Sharia Law Should Be Used in Britain
The most senior judge in England yesterday gave his blessing to the use of sharia law to resolve disputes among Muslims. Lord Chief Justice Lord Phillips said that Islamic legal principles could be employed to deal with family and marital arguments and to regulate finance. He declared: 'Those entering into a contractual agreement can agree that the agreement shall be governed by a law other than English law.' In his speech at an East … [Read more...]
Smile! More and more, you're on camera
After the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, local governments across the country set aside concerns over privacy and installed surveillance cameras in public streets and plazas. Now — even after a damning report by the head of London's extensive surveillance network and with little evidence that the systems work — police in many cities are trying to add thousands more cameras to their networks. "'Cameras Everywhere' continues to be the … [Read more...]
Britain: Christianity 'could die out within a century'
More than half of Britons think Christianity is likely to have disappeared from the country within a century, according to a survey. Research by the Orthodox Jewish organisation Aish found that just over a third of people thought religions like Christianity and Judaism would still be practiced in Britain in 100 years' time. Although four in 10 people said they would choose to be a member of the Christian religion, almost the same number … [Read more...]

I Woke Up This Morning with My Mind...
"I woke up this morning with my mind, and it was,
stayed on Jesus.
I woke up this morning with my mind, and it was
stayed on the Lord.
Prayin and prayin with my mind, and it was
stayed on Jesus
Hallelu, Hallelu, Hallelujah"
I have been thinking about the old Black church songs that I grew up listening to - the songs that my dad would sing bright and early on weekend mornings, alerting us all to the fact that it was time to wake up, wash our faces, brush our teeth and head to the kitchen for our Saturday spread of grits and eggs. I miss those songs. If I'm home for any period of time, my dad will still break out into one of them. For these songs, I'm grateful.
And then I think about the children I may have one day, who may very well be biracial and who may very well grow up in a majority white or multiethnic church. I can't help but wonder if they'll know those songs. I suppose that they will if I sing them. And oh, I'll sing them. But what about their children? And their children's children? Will these beautiful pieces of their heritage be lost forever? Is that just the way time works?
I've been knee-deep in a class on cross-cultural leadership development and I've learned a great deal. This week, one of the lectures focused on multiethnic churches. My professor, in conversation with many other articles from various ministry leaders, outlined the steps necessary to build a multiethnic church. It felt good to see it all thought out and organized. I'm a girl who loves a good strategy! However, much of the feedback regarding churches that go on journeys towards multiethnicity states that while predominately-white churches may bolster diverse representation through their efforts towards multiethnicity, they are still largely "white" in their cultural practices. This manifests itself in a variety of ways, namely how small-groups are facilitated and in predominate worship styles. This manifests itself in the food that's chosen for events and in the time-oriented nature of services. White culture is the norm, the water we're all swimming in.
This isn't surprising to me. Assimilation, the process by which minority cultures fold into majority cultures, is much easier than cultural pluralism, the process by which two cultures exchange aspects of themselves in order to build a unified multicultural group. True cross-cultural exchange takes time and great deal of intentionality at every level of a church or organization's structure. This is hard work. But my dream is that we'd move away from assimilation in our cross-cultural ministry efforts and that we'd move towards cross-cultural exchange, if for no other reason than for my sweet little kids one day. I don't want them to have to choose.
A girl can dream.

Apple's Cool Matrix-Style App Wall (TechCrunch) -- a huge collection of icons for many of the apps available in the App Store, arranged by color. Apparently, when someone purchased one, that app's icon would pulsate. An App Store version of Google's search globe.
