A good research will help you find the right kind of website for this purpose. Once you find you can get four websites in the beginning and then you can even order for more. If you order you will get at least 14 such money making sites.

The Magic Gang – What Have You Got To Lose
Following their 2018 self-titled debut, The Magic Gang are about to release their sophomore effort. The album. Death Of The Party, is set to be released on 15 May. First single Think was a great Northern soul pastiche with 'Style Council' written all over it. But not wasting any time, the band quickly release single #2, which shows another side of their musical spectrum.
What Have You Got To Lose is a spiky, punchy indie-pop stomper. It finds bassist Gus Taylor delivering stream-of-consciousness lyrics over spiky, dark guitars and a throbbing bassline.

New England Patriots free agency addition JuJu Smith-Schuster has apparently picked his jersey number for the 2023 season. The veteran wide receiver, who signed a three-year deal last month, shared a photo on Instagram on Monday with the caption "coming soon."
The photo shows him wearing a No. 7 Patriots jersey:
A second-round draft pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2017, Smith-Schuster started his NFL career wearing No. 19. He moved to No. 9 — his college number at USC — last season when he joined the Kansas City Chiefs. With that number unavailable in New England (it is currently being worn by linebacker Matthew Judon), he has seemingly opted to add another one to his personal history.
If indeed moving to No. 7, Smith-Schuster will take over a jersey most recently worn by punter Jake Bailey. With him released and now in Miami, however, the jersey was free to be taken.

With five months to go before elections are held in Haiti, its Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) is planning to disenfranchise many voters by refusing to register residents in poorer neighborhoods.
CEP President Max Mathurin announced that the council will not set up voter registration offices in the so-called "popular neighborhoods" through the country — hotbeds of support for the Lavalas Party of deposed President Jean-Bertrand Aristide — where much of the population resides. Mathurin provided no justification for the decision except to say that it will remain in force "until the situation changes." Only 56,000 people have been registered so far out of 4.4 million eligible to vote. The CEP intends to end its voter registration drive July 31.
Brian Concannon Jr. of the Port-au-Prince-based Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti told the World, "The whole point of both the repression [against Lavalas supporters] and the limited registration facilities is to prevent the Lavalas Party from campaigning and its supporters from voting." He added, "It is important to understand that the opposition to Lavalas, in electoral terms, has never existed. There are no parties that have demonstrated an ability to attract any votes or to effectively compete with Lavalas."
A human rights monitor based in Haiti, who asked that her name not be mentioned, agreed with Concannon that the CEP's unwillingness to register voters in poor neighborhoods "should be seen as a deliberate attempt to exclude opponents of the current regime from voting." However, "The question is not simply one of whether voting bureaus will be installed in popular neighborhoods, or of whether on one or two days voting can happen.
"The climate of insecurity and frequent violations of the rights of residents of these areas by the interim authorities makes it impossible for anyone to organize," she said. "Most people are literally struggling to live — death from starvation is on the rise in all of the popular neighborhoods, violence is paralyzing everything, no one can function. Residents of popular neighborhoods, and the population at large, cannot begin to discuss elections given the current situation in the country."
Anthony Fenton, a Canadian-based journalist and analyst, said, "Many of the same organizations that helped engineer the sham elections in Afghanistan and Iraq are hard at work in Haiti. In fact, the very same organizations that helped destabilize the Lavalas government, such as the International Republican Institute, and others who receive U.S. Agency for International Development and Canadian International Development Agency money, are working with other pioneers of U.S.-led 'democracy enhancement' projects to ensure a certain outcome. When you 'enhance' a democracy by destabilizing it, it follows logically that you should oversee 'free and fair' elections by excluding the majority of Haitian voters."
In related news, a Canadian government-funded report by consultant Ron Gould obtained by the World is critical of the CEP's performance. Gould writes, "Overall, there is a fragmented, piecemeal approach to the carrying out the Haitian election process, a process which only functions smoothly if it is an integrated continuum." He concludes, "The CEP is not an electoral management decision-making body, but a group of nine individuals, each with separated areas of responsibility and internal conflicts, which negatively affects effective management and decision making."
Haiti's U.S.-installed government plans to hold local, legislative and presidential elections in November and December, although the CEP stated recently that these dates might be changed. Lavalas, the nation's largest party, refuses to take part in the elections because of the continuing state-led repression directed against it.

Lower Line Careers Programme
Lower Grammar
In Lower Grammar, pupils begin by discussing their future options with their tutors, particularly using the Start Profile site, where they can explore possible careers and begin recording their achievements. Following a series of assemblies, they then work with tutors and the Careers department on choosing their GCSE options. This discernment process includes a Stonyhurst workbook and discussions with teachers and tutors at the LG parents' weekend.
In Grammar, pupils continue to work with the Careers staff and their tutors, using the Start Profile site and other helpful workbooks to explore their plans for the future. There is a focus on identifying their strengths, as well as working on employability skills which will help them in the workplace.
In Summer term, Grammarians complete a CV which is then used during their individual mock interview with an external local employer who is usually a parent or OS. These activities prepare pupils for work experience.
During their Syntax year, pupils undertake the important task of choosing their A Level or IB options. In preparation for this, pupils and their parents first attend the Higher Line Open Evening where they can find out more about the various courses on offer. All Syntaxians then undertake the MyFutureChoice programme, which identifies which types of careers they may be best suited to. This programme is now delivered online.
This comprises the MyCareerChoice and MyAptitude tests, and results in an individual report. Following this, every Syntaxian has a one-to-one interview with a member of the Careers and Higher Line team to discuss their options. They continue to work with tutors, using Start Profile and workbooks, as well as visiting the Careers department for individual support. Syntaxians are encouraged to attend talks relating to specialist options, such as Law, Medicine, apprenticeships, and elite universities.
In addition, Stonyhurst offers a wide range of co-curricular options which nurture interests in a variety of careers, such as Young Enterprise, Faith that Does Justice, Debating, the Changemakers Society, Robotics, and many more.

To excite you to this, we would remind you, that these things deserve your deligence, that diligence will secure them, and that they cannot be attained without diligence.
First. These things DESERVE YOUR DILIGENCE. 'It is pitiable to see men employing their zeal and consuming their strength upon trifles; but this is the case with regard to the pursuits of thousands. You may ask them as they rush by, "Wherefore do ye "spend your money for that which is not bread, and KC your labour for that which satisfieth not?" None of these things can relieve them in their greatest exigencies, promote their chief interefts, reward them for their toil, or indemnify them for the sacrifices they make. But this cannot be said of spiritual blessings and graces. These are in the sight of God of great price. They are necessary to man. They purify his passions, and tranquilize his conscience. They enrich, they dignify him; they are his perfection. They make him happy in himself, and render him a blessing to all around him. Conceive how striking and how useful a single individual would be if seen, thus adorning the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things; not only a believer, but corageous; not only corageous, but wise; not only wise, but selfdenying, and gentle, and pious; and all this followed by kindness and benevolence! What then would a number of these characters accomplish as they passed along through life? They would look forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners; bearing down reproach, disarming infidelity, putting to silence the ig
norance of foolish men, and constraining beholders to glorify God in the day of visitation.
Secondly. Diligence WILL INFALLIABLY SECURE these things. In the career of worldly good, many run, but few obtain the prize; and the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the ftrong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of underftanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. Fame depends upon a combination of circumstances, which may never return. A despised rival may suddenly rise up, and carry off an acquisition which you had been pursuing incessantly through life. Though the sower soweth in hope, many things may fruftrate his expectations. "But to the righteous there is a sure reward." "He "that goeth forth weeping, bearing precious seed, "shall doubtless return again with rejoicing, bringing "his fheaves with him." "Ask, and it fhall be given "you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall "be opened unto you; for every one that asketh, re"ceiveth and he that seeketh, findeth, and to him. "that knocketh, it shall be opened." In the world men spare no pains, decline no difficulty, fear no hazard, though they have nothing more than probability to excite and encourage them; and shall we be insensible and motionless, who have nothing less than actual certainty?
Thirdly. There is NO ATTAINING THESE THINGS WITHOUT diligence. Diligence is indispensable.
Indispensable, if we appeal to analogy. You must labour even for "the meat that perisheth." Through what a succession of process does your bread pass be-
fore it be prepared for use! The same may be said of raiment; of trade; of science; of every thing valuable and excellent, you do not expect to gain them without diligence; you would not esteem and prize them if you could.
"On earth nought precious is obtain'd,
"By travail, and to travail born,
-Indispensable, if we appeal to the character of a Christian. He is a merchant, a scholar, a husbandman, a traveller, a soldier. The anxiety of the merchant, the application of the scholar, the hardy toil of the husbandman, the wearying progress of the traveller, the painful exercise of the soldier, are images which ill accord with indolence and ease.
-Indispensable, if we appeal to the promises of the Gospel. These all require it, encourage it, produce it. Is God said to work in us to will and to do of his own good pleasure? It is made a motive to induce us to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling. Has he engaged to renew our strength? It is when we are waiting upon him; this is the condition. It is that we may mount up with wings as eagles, that we may run and not be weary, and walk and not faint; this is the design. And if the promises of divine grace do not supersede the necessity of diligence, what else can render it needless?
Awake then, my fellow Christians, and be zealous. Be not satisfied with your present attainments; but forgetting the things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, be ever press
ing towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Others are ambitious, covetous, active. The learned are adding to their intellectual treasures; the honourable are adding to their splendour and distinctions; the rich are adding. house to house, and field to field; and none of them saith, "It is enough." And have you no concern to go from strength to strength, to be changed from glory to glory, to shine more and more unto the perfect day? Will not you add to your faith, virtue; and to virtue, knowledge; and to knowledge, temperance; and to temperance, patience; and to patience, godliand to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, charity?
Here, my Brethren, call forth all your diligence. Here is a prize which is able to reward it, which will assuredly crown it; but which it is impossible to acquire without it. Keep this always in your remembrance, that there is only one way to prosper in relig ion; that your strength is not to sit still; that something more is necessary than airy notions, sleepy wishes, feeble resolutions, wavering and cold endeavours; that temptations are to be resisted, obstacles to be overcome, means to be incessantly used, especially prayer, that divine Grace may be mighty in you, and sufficient for you. "He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack "hand; but the hand of the diligent maketh rich." "The soul of the sluggard desireth and hath noth66 ing; but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat." "And we desire that every one of you do shew the "same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the "end; that ye be not slothful; but followers of them, TT

The consumption of alcohol is known to increase the risk of infection, disease and mortality. Women and children stand a much higher risk, though the dangers impact everyone. In light of Alcohol Awareness Month, we hope you learn to understand the need for alcohol addiction treatment and awareness.
One alcoholic beverage equates to 12 ouches of beer, 8 ounces of malt liquor, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80 proof distilled spirits. Each of these measurements contain the same amount of ethanol, or alcohol. According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, moderate alcohol intake equates to one drink/day for women – two drinks/day for men. Though moderate drinking does provide a number of health benefits, it may still increase the risk of breast cancer in women.
Alcohol Addiction Treatment
Although the consumption of alcohol is widely accepted throughout our society, for alcoholics – roughly 8.5% of the population – social drinking comes equipped with an array of risks and consequences. At our alcohol addiction treatment facility, recovery specialists educate patients on how to avoid temptation while maintaining a healthy and vibrant social life.
Alcohol Treatment Center
According to the Mayo Clinic, alcohol addiction is a frequently progressive and chronic disease that includes issues controlling alcohol intake. Furthermore, they claim that alcoholism is highly influenced by environmental, social and psychological factors. Inherited tendencies or genetics may also play a role in addiction development.
At our alcohol treatment center, recovery is sought through intervention, medication, counseling and long-term strategies for achieving and maintaining long-term sobriety.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently attributed roughly $223.5 billion dollars per year to the cost of alcohol-related health care expenditures, law enforcement, absenteeism and vehicular accidents. Add to this the loss in human capitol – broken homes, domestic abuse, etc. – and you have a full blown epidemic.
Alcohol Awareness Month: Inpatient Rehab In New York
While Alcohol Awareness Month may only be celebrated in April, the need for addiction awareness and addiction treatment programs is year-round.
Need help? Contact our residential treatment program in New York today! As a world-class luxury rehabilitation facility, you can depend on The Dune East Hampton for the quality care, personalized attention and treatments you need to start enjoying the sober, healthy and fulfilling lifestyle you've been dreaming of. Representatives are standing by!

The wiki was down temporarily this week because the ISP installed some sort of antihacking software which broke Tiki. However, after corresponding with them a few times, it's working again.
I've decided to go ahead and bite the bullet and upgrade to the latest version of tiki. I need to document code changes that Dave has made before I move ahead with this, so it may take a few days. The formatting features available in the new version will make user home pages A LOT more useful. And I do mean A LOT.
I'll keep you posted.

Quality Interactions Save the Day
Do you have days when nothing seems to work out? I had one of these days on a recent trip to Picton. I needed an internet source for a three hour zoom meeting.

Maintain your Mojo to be an Effective Leader
Maintaining your mojo means giving yourself time to rest so that you can continue to be the most effective leader for your team. I've met too many executives who continue to work ten-hour days and seven-day weeks. Why is this? Mostly, they don't want to be judged by their boss or peers as weak or not resilient. The thrill of being on top of something new, making rapid decisions and innovating brings rushes of adrenalin. As inevitable complaints and criticisms...Continue Reading >

Beer likes company, so every Thursday from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Cowgirl Creamery sifts through its library of cheese to find a few friends for one lucky beer, offering small tastes of beer and cheese pairings. (They do the same with wine on Fridays.) You can buy your beer there too; Cowgirl is the single reservoir in downtown's dearth of beer stores, stocking sixpacks from the likes of Troegs and Victory and less common singles from Allagash and Green Flash.
I stopped by yesterday when they were sampling the straightforward Lagunitas IPA alongside a handful of cheeses, both from Cowgirl and from other dairies. This IPA was too sharp and one-dimensional to really play well with any of the cheeses, but Cowgirl's Red Hawk, a triple-cream, washed-rind cheese with a healthy amount of stink, stood up to the its bite. And its unctuous fat weighed so pleasantly heavy in my mouth that I left with a ginger ale in hand.
On the other hand, the grainier Pondhopper, a goat cheese from Tumalo Farms, triggered cravings for an acidic, citrusy hefeweizen. The cheese is actually made with beer — Oregon's Deschutes Mirror Pond Pale Ale, according to Cowgirl manager Erica Sanford — to impart some hoppy citrus flavors, so we're not alone in this whole beer-and-cheese idea. In any case, while the IPA wasn't the best starting point, it's free, and I'll be sure to return another Thursday to see what they have lined up.

As U.S. President Donald Trump makes his debut speech at the United Nations General Assembly, business leaders from around the globe are gathering in New York City for Climate Week NYC to discuss ways to mitigate the effects of climate change. Glen Dowell, leading corporate sustainability researcher and associate professor of Management and Organizations at Cornell University, says business leaders have a powerful role to play in addressing climate change.
Bio: https://www.johnson.cornell.edu/Faculty-And-Research/Profile/id/gwd39
Dowell says:
"Business leaders across a variety of sectors are taking the risks of climate change very seriously, and are not going to wait to see what the White House or Congress do.
"Businesses have substantial potential to work toward mitigating climate risks through at least three roles. First, businesses are themselves important customers for technologies like clean energy, and as they adopt these technologies, their scale can drive prices down. Second, they can influence customers' adoption of cleaner technologies. Finally, they work with local and state governments and civil society to set standards even in the absence of federal action."
Cornell University has television, ISDN and dedicated Skype/Google+ Hangout studios available for media interviews.

Niche Partitioning
This video introduces the concept of niche partitioning with examples drawn from the African savanna.
Ecologist Robert Pringle explains the main ways in which large mammalian herbivores that coexist in the African savanna — including giraffes, zebras, and wildebeest — partition their habitat to reduce competition. He provides examples of herbivores partitioning their habitat by space (spatial niche partitioning) and diet (dietary niche partitioning), the latter of which may involve dividing food resources based on time or height.
This clip is from a 2015 Holiday Lecture Series, Patterns and Processes in Ecology.
Key Terms
biodiversity, browser, competition, facilitation, grazer, grazing succession, Serengeti, species coexistence
Primary Literature

1 Start by asking whether the pattern will coincide with itself if you rotate it around some center by a certain angle. For our target pattern, such an angle exists and it is 180° (the rotation center can be any of the black dots). Therefore, you move to the second entry on the left of the diagram.
To the second question, Is there a reflection, the answer is "yes": a vertical reflection axis passes through the center of each Lotus trefoil.
Because there are no mirrors in any another direction, you conclude from the diagram that the symmetry type is Parallel mirrors & glide (pmg).
2 Draw a spiral, the central element of the design, with the pencil, pen, or spiral tool. Make a 1 x 1 tiling of the required symmetry type.
3 Observe that with the default orientation of the control path (highlighted in the preceding picture), the resulting mirrors in the pattern are horizontal, whereas you need vertical ones. Rotate the control path 90° counter clockwise and adjust the position, width, and height of the control path so that the upper-right spiral flows into the lower-left one.
5 Delete the divides between the upper and lower spirals, by opening the tip of the seed spiral with the eraser tool. Increase the tiling size using the SymmetryWorks Options panel and interactively readjust the spiral and/or the control path as necessary. Add the Lotus leaves and other ornamentation details.

NRL Upsets Galore
Panthers and Raiders cause boilovers
The NRL matches last night threw up some amazing results, with the hot to trot Cowboys getting beaten by the Penrith Panthers 22 to 12. The Panthers who have been horribly out of form, were paying an amazing $3.90 with bookies to win in North Queesland. Juicy Juicy odds.
Sadly for the Panthers, they look to have lost Craig Gower to injury and he is in doubt for Origin selection.
In the other match last night the maligned Canberra Raiders grabbed a late try to beat South Sydney Rabbitohs 16-10. The stats read badly for the Bunnies now, having lost 5 of their last 6 games – possibly the missing Kidwell factor is hurting. The other problem Jason Taylor and the Rabbitohs face is their inability to score points – while turning in good defensive efforts, the Bunnies are not crossing the line enough.
The Rabbitohs will glady take the 2 points next week from the bye and will hope to recover in time to face the Titans in Queensland.
The Panthers also get a week off, as do the Raiders. Amazingly the Raiders will move to 10 points, and well away from their suggested Wooden Spoon zone and the forgotten Penrith Panthers will head up to 8 points. Once again showing that a week is a really long time in football and 2 weeks is an eternity.
In further NRL games today, the in form Wests Tigers take on the rookie brigade from St George Illawarra. The cellar dwelling Roosters face the inconsistent Titans in what should be an interesting battle between Cartwright and his old mentor club.
On Monday night its the blockbuster between the high flying Storm and the gritty Bulldogs.
In other NRL news, former Canberra Raiders custodian and captain Clinton Schifcofske has spoken out about his transfer to Rugby Union. The fullback has admitted his change to Union hasn't been a happy one and has desires to return to the greatest game of all. We watch with interest as the likes of Tahu head to ARU land and see if the grass is greener.

Call to Participate:
As in all programs at St. Anne's, our children and youth program depends upon the support of parents and the entire parish. If you have a call to participate in these incredibly vibrant and growing ministries please contact Tabi Tobiassen (can we make my name a link to my email?). It takes a whole community to raise children and that is what we are seeking to do.
Episcopal Youth Community (EYC)
EYC is a community of teens 6th-12th grade seeking to find their way in the world by walking in the footsteps of Christ. We believe in building our community together and making sure everyone feels welcomed and loved. EYC provides a time when youth can talk about real issues and show their true selves without judgement or criticism. We meet Sunday nights downstairs in the youth center:
Middle School: 5pm-6pm
Community Dinner: 6pm-6:30pm
High School: 6:30pm-7:30pm
Why is Building Community Important?
Building Community within the church is so important for youth. With stress from school, peer pressure, and the effects of social media, youth need a safe space and a community to lean on. Our activities are designed to help teens grow deeper in their faith and strengthen their relationship with Christ and with others in their lives.
Link to the Diocesan Episcopal Youth Community: eycdioatl.org
Youth Formation:
During our program year (September-May) youth in grades 6-12 are invited to join downstairs in the youth center from 9:15 am-10:15 am for Youth Formation.
Middle School Youth Formation
During this time your youth will explore the Bible through the lens of the real world using current events and the lectionary. This is where we begin teaching our youth how to debunk bible myths, how read the bible responsibly and begin exploring the sacramental rite of confirmation.
An important chapter in Christian formation, Confirmation is a sacrament and a rite of passage that occurs at the end of 8th grade. At St. Anne's, youth candidates for Confirmation are required to meet regularly with clergy and lay teachers on Sunday mornings from Mid-August until January of the following year.
In these classes, students explore and prepare for adult life in the church, learning about church history, the Bible, Episcopal liturgy, the modern church, and their own personal Christian ministries. In addition, they participate in service opportunities within our community and a weekend retreat.
As classes conclude, students decide, with the help of parents, clergy, and mentors, whether to be confirmed at the Confirmation Eucharist.
High School Youth Formation:
In High School your youth will have the opportunity to dive into some more difficult issues they may be facing and give a theological refection of the modern world. We want youth in this class to leave with the skills to have civil discussions on what can be some polarizing topics. We want our high school youth to be ready for whatever the world is going to throw at them. We also want our high school youth to feel like empowered members of the church with the power to make change.

How To Create an Inexpensive Website in Hours
Does your business need a website in 2015? After all, social media websites offer businesses a quick and easy online presence for communicating their message. Isn't it enough to be listed on business directories and Yelp?
It's really pretty simple; YES, you need a website. But not just because I create them. If your goal is to grow a business and and reach more people, you need to have a foundation for establishing trust, communicating value, and developing your brand. You need to have a centralized destination for all your other online marketing efforts.
However, you don't need to hire a web design agency to get started with a website. If you have time and a little elbow grease, you can create a great* website yourself. If you have only a few hours, you can still create a good looking online business card where you can funnel strangers on their journey to becoming your customers.
Get Started at WordPress.com
WordPress is an open source Content Management System (CMS) that powers a large percentage of the web. It has gained popularity in large part because it is simple to setup and deploy, and it maintains backwards compatibility.
It has a huge repository of Plugins that allow you to extend its capabilities, and you can use Themes to quickly change the look and feel of your site.
WordPress.com is essentially a large multisite installation. Without getting too technical, it allows you to have an awesome website for free…with some limitations on functionality, as well as the occasional advertisement shown on your site.
There are options for installing premium themes and designs, but you can get by without in many cases.
Step 1: Choose your website name
Your site will be a subdomain of wordpress.com, but you can add your own domain later…for a small fee.
Step 2: Setup your account
This is simply your email, a username you create, and your password. Please don't use password123.
Step 3: Optional: Choose a custom domain
Using a custom domain is recommended, especially if you are creating a business website. Customers are expecting a business to have their own domain, and it looks unprofessional otherwise.
You can get them cheaper on other registrars, however, such as name.com. There are lots more top level domains (TLDs) available now as well, such as .rocks, .ninja, .properties, so if the .com you want is not available, you can still find a snappy domain name.
Step 4: Must not be important
I don't have a screenshot of this step, so it must be a pretty lame step. You'll figure it out, I believe in you.
Step 5: Choose Your Plan
You can stick with the free plan, or bump yourself up to one of the paid plans. If you are a business, I recommend using a paid plan, after all, you want to look like a business.
Customize Your Website
Now that you've created your site on WordPress, you can begin the fun part of building your content and customizing your site. The tendency is to begin with the look and feel, and trying to make everything look nice. STOP!
You should start with a clear understanding of the message you want to relay to your visitor. If you don't understand the goal of the website, then you cannot define the content. And if you don't have the content of your website, then you really cannot create an effective design.
Goals > Content > Design
The key to creating an effective website is for you to have a clear understanding of what you want your visitors to do. Should they fill out a contact form? Should they click on an Ad and generate revenue? Should they buy a product from your website? Should they subscribe to your blog?
You can have several goals, but keep in mind that every page a visitor goes to should be oriented around those goals. Make it clear what the visitor should do on that page.
You now have a website to centralize your business marketing message. Continue to improve your website by analyzing how visitors interact with your site. Over time you will have a website that converts visitors into customers and delights those customers. To get a much more in-depth look at how to design your website, checkout our 25 Must Haves below.
* Great is being used liberally.

Dominic Fike: Come Here
The attention-grabbing opener to recording artist Dominic Fike's debut album, What Could Possibly Go Wrong?, "Come Here" proves brief but big. Over screeching guitars, Fike's muffled vocals and deep drums provide plenty of rock edge. What Could Possibly Go Wrong? merits a full listen; it showcases the Florida-born musician's progress as an artist, and "Come Here" is quite the introduction.

Student Reviews
Many of my students have been with me for over a year who started as beginners and are now learning advanced sewing projects.
Here are what a few of my students have said about their learning experience.
Vanessa is an amazing teacher. She's patient, kind, and oh-so-knowledgable. I first went to one of the short sessions she had for a group, and, in the first twenty minutes, demystified several issues I'd run into trying to figure out how to sew on my own (which made me pretty much throw up my hands). She knows how to sequence the information so it's available when you're ready for it, and how to provide it in a way that is never anything but helpful. If you have any interest in starting to sew, or in improving on where you are, you can't go wrong in having Vanessa as your guide.— Jodi M.
I had such a great time in my sewing class with Vanessa. I can't believe how much I learned even though I've been sewing since I was a girl. What a great refresher and inspiration, plus I walked away with an adorable bag! Highly recommend for new and advanced student!— Katha S.
Vanessa is such a wonderful, patient, knowledgeable teacher. She's been teaching my daughter sewing for the past few months and now my daughter is motivated and capable of making her own projects. Doing online lessons helped my daughter become more confident on our home machine, so she's now able to sew on her own at home. Even though I know how to sew and tried to teach my daughter myself, Vanessa's lessons are much more inspiring than mine!— Lindsey H.
I took the intro to sewing class pack and to sum it up in one word... amazing! Vanessa took to time to tailor the private lessons to things I wanted to learn about while giving me a great base of knowledge. She is patient, encouraging, generous, and an expert at what she does. I had so much fun learning how to use my machine and enjoyed the small projects along the way (I still use my bag for the grocery store a year later). I highly recommend working with Ronkita Custom Sewing and Design!— Jordan R.
Whether you are about to begin your journey into sewing or are experienced and ready to learn new skills, Ronkita Custom Sewing and Design is there for you. Learning to sew with RCS&D, Vanessa, has been such a joy from the very beginning. She has helped me grow from making simple drawstring bags to sewing my own clothing! Always patient and very knowledgeable of the sewing process. Vanessa can explain your project clearly with helpful hints and navigate you towards successful completion.— P. Villarreal
My daughter has been taking sewing lessons with Ronkita for over a year, and we are really happy with the results. She is really enjoying her lessons and making great progress. Thanks to her lessons with Ronkita, she was able to enter several outfits into a local fashion show. Since we have been under quarantine, Ronkita has successfully continued these sewing lessons virtually, which is impressive!— Jane S.
Vanessa was awesome. She was clear in her direction, thorough in her explanations, and super patient. I also love that she has the technical background in how sewing machines work given that she repairs them. In 1.5 hours, she taught me to make a cute clutch. She rocks!— Val B.
Had a super fun time learning the basics of sewing from Vanessa! She explained a lot of the "why" behind what we did, plus some machine mechanics which made sewing seem much less difficult than I thought it was! Vanessa is smart, kind and obviously passionate about her work. I really enjoyed the two hours I spent with her! I also now feel confident that I can thread a sewing machine and do some basic sewing work on my own. Excellent experience all around!— Anna W.
Vanessa was the best sewing teacher I have ever had! She was so easy and nice to get along with and taught me step by step so efficiently! I really enjoyed how simple she made the whole process but how proud I was of my work afterward. Thanks again Vanessa!— Jordyn S.

The Dumping Grounds of Asia
On 11th March 2011, the 9.1 Richter Tōhoku Earthquake hit the city of Sendai in Miyagi prefecture, followed by tsunami waves that reached heights of up to 40.5 meters in Miyako in Tōhoku's Iwate Prefecture. The damage from the tsunami had dire impacts on the reactors. The cooling system of the first three Fukushima Daiichi reactors broke down, and by 14th March, their cores had largely melted. The radioactive release over the next 4 to 5 days tallied up to approximately 940 PBq (Petabecquerel), marking the beginning of the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster.
Three weeks into the nuclear disaster, removal of contaminated water accumulated due to the tsunami inundation and leakage from the reactors was underway by TEPCO ( Tokyo Electric Power Company). About one thousand storage tanks were set up, each having a holding capacity of 1200 cubic meters. It was found that the Unit 2 reactor and the turbine were the main source of highly contaminated water. In order to free up storage for this, 10,400 cubic meter of slightly contaminated water (0.15 TBq) was released into the ocean, with government approval and subsequent oversight by the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) to ensure that the released water didn't increase the radioactivity of the sea beyond the approved safety limits.
Early in 2013, TEPCO started to test and commission the Advanced Liquid Processing System (ALPS), a new wastewater treatment facility built to treat the contaminated water. ALPS-treated water is currently stored in tanks onsite, which are estimated to reach full capacity by the summer of 2022.
Contemplating Crossroads
After intensive water treatment, the contaminated water would show only traces of tritium. This isotope is harmful only when digested in large quantities. In November 2019, the Trade and Industry Ministry of Japan released a report stating that the microsieverts released by disposal of this water in the atmosphere will be higher than the levels when disposed of in sea. Thus TEPCO released a report stating the disposal methods that are viable in this case.
On 13 February 2021, the Japanese government officiated a decision and announced it globally. TEPCO plans on releasing the water offshore, starting 2023. The water will be further filtered and diluted until then.
After the Declaration
Japan's decision faced severe criticism from two countries. China and South Korea are against the release of the treated water in the Pacific Ocean. The pivotal point of their argument is the fact that they were not consulted for this decision. Furthermore, South Korea voiced concerns over the impact of this release in the South Korean fishing grounds.
The Japanese Fishing Authority is also against this decision, with concerns over how the importers of their produce will respond to this decision. After the 2011 tsunami and the consequent nuclear disaster, Japan's global seafood trade took a massive hit. Numerous bans were imposed on seafood imports from Japan, and 15 out of 54 countries continue these food restrictions till date. For Fukushima's fishermen, this decision spells bad news. These fishermen were on the cusp of restarting full fledged coastal fishing off the coast of Fukushima Prefecture. It took them a decade to regain trust amongst the local consumers. With new safety regulations, ascertaining the future of Fukushima fishing grounds is next to impossible, with producer and consumer distrust running rampant.
Verifying Authenticity Of Concerns
The Japanese government took steps to ensure that they met all international safety guidelines while releasing the water. Their claim for Tritium levels is backed by the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency).
Furthermore, a group of atomic experts from South Korea declared that the concerns expressed by the South Korean government had no scientific precedent. They found that South Korea would receive 1/300,000,000 of maximum radiation levels that the human body can be exposed to even if Japan had not followed the safety process that ensures this disposal process takes 30-40 years.
China stands by their argument, and have publicly expressed this via twitter.
While some of these concerns are understandable, it must be noted that Japan has complied with all international standards and been completely transparent about this process. It is also worth noting that this is not a novel approach to nuclear waste water disposal. These international standards are adhered to by multiple countries, including the USA, UK, South Korea and even China themselves. However, when questioned about the dumping of tritium laced water from Daya Bay, Chinese officials simply claimed a comparison between that and Fukushima plant's water cannot be drawn.
Economic Implications Of Fukushima Decision:
- Predictable Externalities:
- Trade Reduction- The most observable impact of this decision is on the export of seafood. The Japanese Government imposed numerous restrictions on fishing activities in Fukushima. Certain species were eventually allowed to be fished based on the amount of Cesium their bodies accumulated.
The local fishing communities came to a long halt. A study shows that both local and international consumers of the sea produce were wary of it. Even the agricultural produce grown here had to be sold at discounted rates to attract buyers.
It is safe to assume that there will be a perceived reduction in trust of the quality of seafood cultivated from these regions. Both international and local prices may plummet. Regardless of what Japan claims, fear and precaution will trump facts, inspired from the reaction of multiple nations after the nuclear disaster and a lack of trust of the Japanese people in their officials.
- Disincentive for fishing- In spite of TEPCO's multiple initiatives post the Fukushima nuclear disaster, it took the fishing industry a decade to instill confidence in consumers. The new decision puts a major hurdle in their path of recovery, and the local fishermen were completely against this decision. If the Fukushima authority goes through with their decision, they risk a major fallout between the local fishermen and TEPCO. This would further disincentivize people from taking this profession.
- International Relations- In a global context, the Japanese decision of releasing the water was met with criticism by 2 major Asian countries. While the governments of these countries were called out as being politically or emotionally led and not scientifically driven, this will have a significant impact on Japan's international relations. The United Nations also raised concerns regarding the safety measures and credibility of Japan, which might hamper the relations between major UN members and Japan.
- The Cost Of Wavering
TEPCO cannot afford to keep the water in the tanks any longer. They will reach full capacity in 2022, and their structural integrity will only reduce over the years. New tank construction is not feasible, and even if it were, they would simply be postponing a decision that must be made eventually.
Moreover, nuclear energy has been a leading alternative to conventional energy sources. Despite being a forerunner of green energy, Japan had to increase its fossil fuel consumption over the last 10 years. If the water storage units are cleared up, then the generators can be operated at full capacity, reducing Japan's dependence on fossil fuel. This decision is thus economically more viable, and according to various international organisations, completely safe. The cost of not carrying out the decision would cause both heavy environmental degradation and extensive underutilisation of resources.
As of now, the Japanese government is standing by its decisions. A global turmoil is brewing. And between sparks of ethical debates and political agendas lie the livelihoods of those who struggled and survived through the calamity that ravaged Fukushima all those years ago.

The meteoric rise in mobile esports has seen several device manufacturers like ASUS and Razer get into the smartphone game to cater to budding esports professionals. Now on its third iteration, we're taking a look at the Red Magic 3 from Nubia, one of the more budget-oriented gaming phones, to see what it offers to the most dedicated PUBG Mobile players.
The Red Magic 3 follows the design trend of gaming devices more like the ASUS ROG Phone as opposed to the more sleek and sexy Razer Phone. Looking like something Vulture would have churned out with the scraps of Stark metal he used to build his suit, the Red Magic 3 is like the Iron Man of the gaming smartphone market. It's big, it's bold, it's bulky, and the embedded RGB strip on the back will certainly get someone's attention. It's not my personal preference, but anyone who thinks a "gaming" product should scream "gaming" should be happy here.
Under the hood is a top of the line Snapdragon 855 eight-core processor containing the very capable Adreno 640 graphics chip and between 8-12GB of RAM depending on your storage choice, and both a USB-C port and standard 3.5mm headphone jack, front-firing stereo speakers, and even dual SIM. It retails for $479 on the low end and $599 for the upper tier. Aside from custom backgrounds and some odd robotic sound effects, it's far closer to the stock Android experience than most other phones out there, so software bloat shouldn't be a concern.
Nubia sent us the 128 GB version, meaning we had 8GB of RAM to work with. What that allows for is seamless multitasking, assuring games don't need to reboot when switching between tasks. We managed to have four games open, YouTube, five tabs in Chrome, and a bunch of other assorted apps running in the background, and had no issue getting straight back into the action. An eye-opening result given my Google Pixel 2 XL usually needs to reload a game after taking a photo. Great news for anyone hoping to play a round of PUBG Mobile while farming away on an MMORPG.
As for battery life, we only managed to drain through around 50% of the whopping 5000mAh battery in an eight-hour general use benchmark, so you should be able to game through your average work shift without having to worry about juicing up between matches: which can do rapidly thanks to 18W Quick Charge 4+ capabilities.
Now onto the less exciting news: the 6.65-inch AMOLED display. The large panel helps keep your thumbs from covering up too much of the action, but ultimately lends itself to blurry text compared to older flagships due to the low 338 pixels-per-inch brought on by its 1080 x 2360 resolution. Its odd aspect ratio and rounded corners can slightly cover UI elements, too.
What you do gain, however, is a 90Hz refresh rate. It's not quite the 120Hz you'd get from a Razer Phone, but it's still a noticeable improvement over your standard 60Hz affair. Smoother menu animations and scrolling makes for a snappier feeling phone, but therein lines another problem – PUBG Mobile's highest setting caps the framerate at 60 FPS, meaning the silky smooth panel is a moot point for Tencent's popular Battle Royale title. Something the phone manufacturers always fail to mention.
Thankfully, the Adreno 640 is more than capable of playing PUBG Mobile at a rock-solid 60 FPS – even on maximum settings. And unlike other phones, we observed virtually no drop in performance over time, nor any sudden FPS spikes through both the training mode and a 20 minute War match. Safe to say you won't be needing to run PUBG Mobile Lite on this thing.
The Red Magic 3 settled in at around 40c on your average British summer day, staying clear of any thermal throttling thresholds. The device did get warm enough for palm sweat to become an issue, but it's unlikely to be a dealbreaker for many. We also didn't observe any real change in temperature with the internal fan going full bore.
What we need to talk about, then, is the Red Magic 3's true "gaming" perks. Tossing the 90Hz panel aside – which won't get much use outside of menu scrolling due to 60FPS limits in most games – we have the Game Center software and the touch-sensitive shoulder/trigger buttons. Nubia also makes a couple of different attachments for the Red Magic 3; from a desktop dock with an integrated ethernet port, to a full Nintendo Switch-style controller grip. Sadly, neither of these were included (nor mentioned) when we requested the review unit, so their practicality and uselessness can't be tested here. Nor would they be included in the retail price.
Game Boost and its features are hardware activated by flicking the slider on the side of the phone. Once enabled, you lose usual Android navigation functionality, locking you into your game until you turn it off. Instead, your side-swipe opens the Game Boost tray, giving you access to system stats and temp info, and a button to enable the internal fan for cooling, 4D Rumble, and the aforementioned shoulder triggers to name a few.
With trigger functionality enabled, it's just a case of sliding the floating L and R button icons to the areas of the screen you'll like the hardware triggers to activate. In a game like PUBG Mobile setting these to ADS and Fire awards you functionality similar to a gamepad on a console. I certainly performed better in my matches with the shoulder buttons activated, but they weren't completely without issue, and those already familiar with PUBG Mobile touch controls might need to adjust.
The large footprint of the phone paired with the very specific grip needed to reach the buttons never really felt comfortable or natural. With the buttons being touch-sensitive rather than physical buttons, you can't rest your finger on them like you would a controller without accidentally unloading your clip, meaning hand cramp is a real possibility. I had to actively rewire decades of muscle memory to avoid resting my fingers on the buttons and letting nearby enemies know my exact position through a misfire. There's clearly still a place for those stick-on triggers you can buy from Amazon. And a grip case wouldn't go amiss to stop your palms from mashing on-screen buttons as you reach for the triggers.
4D Rumble, on the other hand, was the most pleasantly surprising feature. I didn't like it at first. It sounded like a piece of plastic snapping. But get past that and you have a feature that adds an extra layer to things like gunshots whizzing by your head. PUBG Mobile doesn't have the best 3D sound positioning, but having the phone deliver a tactile crack to my hand when a bullet hit my cover did help fear for my life that little bit faster.
But that's about where the Red Magic 3 stops being a gaming-grade device. Its 48 MP camera, while very impressive on paper, isn't really something you'll put to much use. Heck, it's not even enabled by default. A 48 MP sensor allows the phone to take high-resolution images, which can be great for reframing in post, but detail quickly takes a nosedive as you zoom in, creating a noisy almost watercolor effect on faraway objects. It attempts to flaunt the ability to record 8K footage, too, but at a 15 FPS cap and with no image stabilization to speak of, there's very little point in actually doing so.
I'm not really qualified to dunk on camera quality, but I know enough to say a 48 MP sensor doesn't really mean much on its own these days. The Red Magic 3 doesn't have all the fancy photographic algorithms things like Samsung or Google Pixel devices use to spruce up their images, Nor should you expect it to for the price. Though the front 16 MP camera may have its uses for those who stream or record gameplay straight from their device.
All in all, the Red Magic 3 is a very capable device and technically one of the most powerful phones on the market now. But to keep the cost of premium gaming down, it takes a hit in other luxury phone areas. Its massive battery will get you through a full series of just about any show on Netflix, but it won't look its best. Likewise, the camera won't really hold a candle to the bigger names in the game. It's a true case of "you get what you pay for" – a killer gaming phone, but not one that's exceptional in any other field. Just know the triggers aren't quite as risk-free as you might think.

Reliable mesh communications in dense wireless ad hoc networks require the creation of both self organizing mesh structures and mesh routing protocols to accomplish efficient and reliable communications with the added infrastructure redundancy. To date, much of the research in the area has focused on communication protocol design. The investigations often are based on a mesh network structure already fully formed and some times fixed to the underlying physical node topology. Therefore, there is a need for a platform to build mesh networks with structural flexibility and to provide management functions to networkand application-level protocols. In this paper, we propose the distributed diffusion-based mesh (DDM) algorithm for distributed mesh construction that instructs distributed nodes on how to make the desired connections with their neighbors.We accomplish this by introducing the concept of connection rule, which defines allowed connections at each mesh node, combined with a token signal that initiates and controls the structure and boundaries of the resulting mesh. We argue that slight changes in mesh network structure greatly affect network performance and show how the combined use of rule and token signal offers control over the resulting mesh structure. This methodology can be used for cross-layer optimization to achieve a network topology suitable for different network applications. As compared with existing protocols, our algorithm also provides a large reduction in communication overhead.

As the sun sets on the Jon Stewart era in the land of Comedy Central, the network's president, Michele Ganeless, is looking forward to a new sunrise. That sunrise should have come in the form of young comedian Trevor Noah who was slated to take over The Daily Show this September. Unfortunately, after many attempts at negotiations, the contract with Noah fell through and he has declined the coveted position stating, "I'm tired of working for all these damn white people."
"We honestly thought the mix of Larry and Trevor would be a great hook for Stewart loyalists as well as the younger demographic the network's been aiming for," Ganeless mentioned during our call, "I mean with all the instant streaming and YouTube videos and the Viners; it's hard for a network to compete."
"So what do you plan to do," I ask in my most keen reporter voice.
"I never thought I'd say this, but . . .we need Trump."
That's right. Michele Ganeless is in talks with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump to fill one of comedy's most important seats. A seat we have reason to believe that will eventually be plated with gold.
"He's actually not completely opposed to the idea," she said after a few incredulous statements on my end. The Donald has been stating that if he doesn't win the GOP nomination for the 2016 presidential race that he would run as an independent candidate which, according to Ganeless, is a "far off option" as opposed to a realistic move. Trump is still fielding options for what to do if becoming President does not work out, and while moving to Canada to avoid another Clinton administration is somewhere near the top of his list Ganeless let us know, "He loves America too much to leave. He also feels Canada is just a few years away from becoming the new China."
Ganeless believes that Trump is "America's truth unfiltered" and no one was more pro-truth than Jon Stewart so the choice to her seems logical. Also on board the Trump train is Daily Show executive producer, Steve Bodow who believes that while Washington is not ready for Donald, the rest of America is not only ready but waiting. Both Bodow and Ganeless have admitted to holding several secret meetings with Trump and his people both on and off the campaign trail. They admit it was difficult at first to get the Donald to agree to sit down. "He's very mistrusting of both women and Jews so that was the first obstacle to work around," remembers Bodow. But after much valiant effort the Donald met with the execs at an undisclosed location.
"Okay but what about his war against women? Won't that chase viewers away?"
"Are you familiar with social media? Women love having something to be angry about. Donald could be the fuel for millions of tweets, thesis papers, and blog posts. All that translates to higher viewership and more income for the network."
Initially I thought this was a terrible idea but when I really listened to what Ganeless had to say, the whole thing makes perfect sense. Donald Trump is the embodiment of what it means to be a successful, honest American. He's white, he's got money, he owns his own home, he uses words like 'luxurious' when referring to his own brand, and he's not afraid to say what every homegrown racist is already thinking.
Why shouldn't he be the one to take over The Daily Show? It's the most trusted news source amongst millennials and millennials already know that they can trust Trump because he clearly takes no advice from public relations people or special interest groups. We know everything he says comes from that brilliant mind of his. In fact, his downright truthiness is a concern for some writers on the Daily Show who wonder if they'll still have jobs if Donald does in fact accept the offer. Bodow was quick to quiet these kinds of rumors.
But that doesn't mean Trump doesn't stand for change. In fact, Ganeless informed me, that in one of her last meetings with Trump he suggested formatting the show without commercials to mimic the style of John Oliver's show currently running on the HBO Network. When she tried to remind him that the show cannot survive without the investment of advertisers Trump simply responded, "Put it on my tab."
"Mr. Trump wants to take the show in a whole new direction that he thinks people will find funny," Bodow adds, "his big idea is a giant gold wall around the news desk with a very small door in it so that all the guests have to approach him on their knees. I kinda like it."
Admittedly, I kinda like it too. And while I don't think I'll be putting a Trump 2016 bumper sticker on my rental any time soon I am thoroughly excited to put Trump's luxurious brand of news reading on my television.

Brent Simmons has a series of posts about Reactive vs "Traditional" which sound a lot like the arguments we're having internally as a team lately. I've gotten into RxSwift in the past months and believe it's a great solution to a number of problems, but it is indeed a big dependency and has a steep learning curve.
I find RxSwift declarative style much easier to read and follow than the imperative counterparts, but it took a while to get there. I remember struggling for months learning to think in terms of streams, and I was really motivated to learn it.
But I thought I'd take some time to take the example in Comparing Reactive and Traditional, as I don't think it's a fair comparison (and not in the way you might expect). You can download all the steps in a playground: Traditional to Reactive.playground.
My first "refactor" was just to clean up the code enough to compiled without errors, so I can put it on a playground.
Then I addressed what I found most confusing about the traditional implementation, which is all that throttling logic scattered around the view controller. There's no need to go reactive there, we just need to contain all that logic and state in one place:
Throttle. This is a generic class that takes a
timeout and a
callback, and you can send new values or
cancel. It will call
callback after
timeout seconds since the last
input unless a new
input happens. Note that this class is generic and doesn't need to know anything about the values. It is also easily testable.
This file contains bidirectional Unicode text that may be interpreted or compiled differently than what appears below. To review, open the file in an editor that reveals hidden Unicode characters.

|class Throttle<T>: NSObject {
|let timeout: Double
|let callback: T -> Void
|var timer: NSTimer? = nil
|var buffer: T? = nil
|init(timeout: Double, callback: T -> Void) {
|self.timeout = timeout
|self.callback = callback
|deinit {
|func input(value: T) {
|buffer = value
|func cancel() {
|if let timer = self.timer where timer.valid {
|timer = nil
|buffer = nil
|private func resetTimer() {
|timer = NSTimer(timeInterval: timeout, target: self, selector: #selector(fetchTimerDidFire(_:)), userInfo: nil, repeats: false)
|func fetchTimerDidFire(sender: AnyObject) {
|guard let value = buffer else {
This leaves us with a simpler view controller, but we still have some logic in there that's not really specific and could be extracted: keeping only the last request and canceling the previous one. I've called this
SwitchToLatest, and it couldn't be simpler: it just has a
switchTo method that keeps a reference to the task, and calls
cancel on it whenever there's a new one. It uses a new
Cancelable protocol since we don't really care about what the task is, we just need to know that we can
cancel it. Also really easy to test.

|class SwitchToLatest {
|var latest: Cancelable?
|func switchTo(next: Cancelable) {
|if let latest = self.latest {
|latest = next
|deinit {

ViewController looks:

|class ViewController: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate {
|private weak var tableView: UITableView!
|private weak var textField: UITextField!
|private lazy var throttle: Throttle<String> = Throttle(timeout: 0.3) { (query) in
|private let switcher = SwitchToLatest()
|private var results = [String]() {
|didSet {
|private var currentText = "" {
|didSet {
|if currentText.characters.count < 4 {
|else {
|override func viewDidLoad() {
|textField.delegate = self
|func textDidChange(sender: AnyObject) {
|if currentText != textField.text {
|currentText = textField.text!
|private func runFetch(query: String) {
|let fetcher = Fetcher(query: query) { result, error in
|if let error = error {
|//Handle it.
|print("Error \(error)")
|else if let result = result {
|self.results = result.map { oneResult in return oneResult.text }
|@IBAction func refresh(sender: AnyObject) {
Here's where I think the fair comparison starts. The traditional version has all the behaviors we want in units with a single responsibility, and the view controller takes these building blocks to do what it needs.
What RxSwift brings to the table is the ability to compose these units and a common pattern for cancellation. What you can't do here is take
Throttle and pipe its output into
SwitchToLatest. But in this case, that's fine.
The live search example is typically a nice example of reactive code as it showcases all of it's features: streams of values, composition of operators, side effects on subscription, and disposables/cancellation. But as we've seen, it doesn't work as a way for reactive code to prove its value, as the traditional counterpart is simple enough.
Compare this to the thing I was trying to write in RxSwift.
- We have some data that needs to be loaded from the API. That data might be used by a few different view controllers.
- When a request fails because of network conditions, it should be automatically retried a few times before we give up.
- We want to poll for new data every minute, counting since the last successful refresh.
- If a request is taking more than a few seconds, the UI should display a message indicating that "this is taking longer than expected".
- If the request fails because an "unrecoverable" error or we give up on retrying, the UI should display an error and we shouldn't try to poll for data until the user manually refreshes again.
- The UI should show a message when it detects it's offline, and stop any polling attempts. When we detect we're online we should resume polling. (I later learned that Apple doesn't recommend using Reachability to prevent network requests unless they've already failed).
- If a second VC wants the same data, there should not be a second request going out. Not just caching, but reusing in-progress requests.
When written in RxSwift it was already a complex logic to follow, and I even had to write a couple of custom operators (
pausable and
retryIf). There's no silver bullet, and that's also true for RxSwift, but I believe it can help. I can't imagine reasoning about all the possible states in a more traditional design.
I also would argue (although someone might disagree) that any time you use
NSFetchedResultsController, or KVO, you are already doing some sort of reactive programming, just not in a declarative way.

Data Management Assessment and Planning ToolsPart of Book
It has become increasingly accepted that important digital data must be retained and shared in order to preserve and promote knowledge, advance research in and across all disciplines of scholarly endeavor, and maximize the return on investment of public funds.
To meet this challenge, colleges and universities are adding data services to existing infrastructures by drawing on the expertise of information professionals who are already involved in the acquisition, management and preservation of data in their daily jobs. Data services include planning and implementing good data management practices, thereby increasing researchers' ability to compete for grant funding and ensuring that data collections with continuing value are preserved for reuse.
This volume provides a framework to guide information professionals in academic libraries, presses, and data centers through the process of managing research data from the planning stages through the life of a grant project and beyond. It illustrates principles of good practice with use-case examples and illuminates promising data service models through case studies of innovative, successful projects and collaborations.
