Q: EXC_BAD_ACCESS in UITableViewController I'm trying to use a UITableViewController (delegate & dataSource for the view) to display a simple table read from a Plist. The Plist contains a NSDictionary which itself contains several NSDictionary objects that represent objects used in my application.
The rest of the code looks something like this (simplified):
- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    [self loadObjectsFromPlist];
}

- (void)loadObjectsFromPlist {
    NSString *objectPlistFile = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Objects" ofType:@"plist"];
    NSDictionary *objectsDictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:objectsPlistFile];

    objects = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
    NSEnumerator *objectEnumerator = [objectsDictionary objectEnumerator];
    NSDictionary *objectData;
    while(objectData = [objectEnumerator nextObject]) {
        [objects addObject:[MyObject objectFromDictionary:objectData]];
    }
}

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
    return [objects count];
}

As I'm not using any sections I return 1 in numberOfSectionsInTableView of the controller.
The objectFromDictionary method of "MyObject" assigns the data read from the NSDictionary to a new object. I tried retaining, copying etc. too, but that didn't change anything.
I get a EXC_BAD_ACCESS in tableView:numberOfRowsInSection when calling [objects count]. I tried using the Object Allocation Instrument, but I didn't find a problem. My Plist currently contains only data for one object. The Debugger displays "1 objects" in red color for the objects attribute, so I think this is related to the problem.

A: To ensure that data is loaded at the appropriate time, try lazy initialization:
- (NSArray *)objectsFromPlist {
    if (!objects) {
       ... // initialize once here
    }
    return objects;
}

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
    return [[self objectsFromPlist] count];
}

A: If the debugger shows that the EXC_BAD_ACCESS occurs at [servers count], is the (assumed) ivar servers being initialized properly? I didn't find any reference to it in your sample code.

A: What is objects?  Can you show your header file?  It might give me a better understanding.  Also, have you tried putting [super viewDidLoad] after your [self loadObjectsFromPlist]?  It seems like a timing issue, or objects is getting released on accident in one of your methods.

A: My guess is that you may have to post your entire (relevant) code, not a stripped down version. Without knowing what else you may be doing, both in the code and the plist, it's going to be hard to nail this down... we're all just firing blindly here (admittedly not an unusual occurrence on SO ;-)

A: It sounds like it is calling numberOfRowsInSection before loadObjectsFromPlist is being called.
If you are loading your controller programatically, maybe try calling loadObjectsFromPlist from initWithFrame:Style: instead of viewDidLoad.
If I had a mac in front of me i'd do it myself, but you might want to try setting break points and figuring out in what order these methods are being called. NSLog statements all over the palce also work.

A: It's possible that you've deallocated your UITableViewController, meaning that the objects member is no longer valid. Make sure that you're holding a reference to the UITableViewController somewhere. An easy way to check to see if this is the case is to add a [self retain] call in your viewDidLoad method (temporarily!). If that makes the problem go away, then you need to double-check who owns the controller and ensure they haven't released it.
EDIT: I guess a better way to test would be to put a breakpoint in your dealloc method.

A: Put your [self loadObjectsFromPlist] before [super viewDidLoad].
Your "objects" variable is never initialized which is why you get a EXEC_BAD_ACCESS error.

A: Ok, after reading through all your answers and trying to find my error, I almost compeletely rewrote my code.
Finally, I removed debug output I added when the error occured for the first time.
NSLog(@"Object count: %@", [objects count]);

As NSArray's count doesn't return an object but an integer this is obviously wrong and should have been:
NSLog(@"Object count: %u", [objects count]);

Nevertheless the EXC_BAD_ACCESS occured without this line before, but it seems it slowed down my debugging. ;) Sadly, I am not able to reproduce the real problem now.
What I can say: The error was not the result of a timing problem. I double checked this now.


With a plethora of cloud-based EPOS systems on the market, and new ones appearing every week, it can be incredibly hard to decide which one is the best for your business. This is especially the case when it comes to Restaurant EPOS where there are a lot more moving parts to think about, and the pressure to get it right is even greater as the POS plays a crucial role in operations.
Many systems offer a one size fits all system, where they claim to be able to work in most environments across hospitality & retail. In theory, that's a nice idea & certainly works for a lot of verticals, but in practice, restaurants have totally different needs to a shoe store.
Here, we'll outline how you can steer clear of the pitfalls that many people encounter when implementing a new Restaurant EPOS.
What should you be on the look-out for to ensure your Restaurant can run efficiently?
Lots of the nuances in EPOS for Restaurants are often things people don't consider…at least not until they realise that they aren't possible with the system they've chosen. These little things can make a huge difference to operational efficiency & are certainly worth investing in.
Flexible Table Maps: Many systems allow you to create a basic table map, whereby you can allocate orders to specific tables. The better systems however give you more flexibility in how those maps are laid out, how easy it is to make edits 'on the fly' and how easy it is to move guests & items between the bar & different tables. Think about how often you shift tables around or push them together.
Coursing Management: One of the keys to a successful Restaurant is a well run Kitchen. And one of the keys to a well run kitchen is the management & timely delivery of different courses. Look out for systems that allow you to split courses when sending to the kitchen & allow you to override course defaults (for those times where a customer wants a starter as a main).
Stock control & Ingredients: Keeping an accurate track of all of your stock is key to keeping pricing up to date & your margins where they should be. Lots of basic systems give you the ability to keep a stock count for single units (bottles, cans etc) which works for some products (usually drinks). However, the better Restaurant EPOS systems also enable you to keep a track of individual ingredients. Look for systems that allow you to set up a list of ingredients & then tie those ingredients to recipes for each product. Some systems do that themselves, whereas others integrate with platforms dedicated to inventory & purchasing.
In addition to back-office stock functionality, consider whether you'd like the stock of certain product to be shown on the front end POS. This can be used to show floor-staff how many of certain dishes are remaining to ensure they can only sell what's available. This makes things easier in the kitchen, and reduces the chances of having to disappoint customers in the restaurant.
Printer routing: Not so crucial in smaller restaurants, but important for larger restaurants is the ability to be able to send products do a multitude of different kitchen & bar printers. Do you want all food to go to one printer & all drinks to another? Or do you have multiple prep areas in the kitchen, each responsible for different products on the menu?
Table Transfers: What happens if somebody decides that they want to move to the nice table by the window? Or when a couple bump into their friends and decide to join tables? A true restaurant system gives you the ability to quickly and seamlessly move orders from one table to another, or merge two orders into one.
Bill Splitting: We've all been out for dinner as a group, and paying the bill is almost always a palava. Look for systems that allow you split the bill in a multitude of different ways; by seat, by number of people, by item & by amount.
Detailed reporting: Systems built for restaurants specifically tend to have more in the way of restaurant specific reporting. This is data that can be incredibly valuable if used correctly. Look out for systems that give plenty of information on things such as average spend per head, floor performance, individual table performance, throughput times, user performance.
Day parts: Lots of restaurants are open from breakfast through lunch to dinner, with different pricing and different products on offer throughout the day. This can result in very large menus on your POS which can be confusing for staff. Look for systems that allow you to manage which products appear on the screen by time of day. You should also look for systems that allow you to manage pricing by time of day. Systems that have these features should also allow you to report by day part.
Cash Management: In a restaurant environment where there is a lot of money handling, you need an EPOS that can manage that cash for you. You need to be able to track all transactions in granular detail so that you always know your cash position. Look for systems that allow you to set up and manage multiple cash drawers with start of day floats, petty cash throughout the day & a blind end of day cash up. If you want to give your floor staff pouches to manage their own cash then look for a system that allows you to do this.
It's not often something people think about until something goes wrong, but when it does, you need to know that there's somebody who can help just as well at 11pm on a Saturday as they can at 9am on a Monday. The best restaurant systems have a dedicated support team available 24/7. Make sure that phone support is available for urgent issues…the last thing you want, is to have to wait 2 hours for an email reply when your EPOS is down.
Cloud-based Restaurant EPOS systems aren't necessarily complicated, but they can be complex. Although much of the basic functionality can be figured out quite quickly without assistance, it's important to know that help is available at the start to drill down into the finer details. You should look for systems that offer initial training to get you up and running as quickly as possible. With cloud-based systems, training tends to be a remote screen sharing session which works well and we've found that 2 hours is typically plenty. Onsite training & installation is often available at an additional cost, although it's usually not needed.
Mobile/Roaming EPOS…should you use roaming terminals?
There are a couple of different ways to make use of a EPOS system in a restaurant, particularly when it comes to tablet & cloud-based systems. With many systems, you now have the option of static terminals (fixed in one point) and roaming terminals (typically on iPad mini or similar). You can use just fixed terminals, or you can use a combination of fixed & roaming.
When using fixed terminals, you'll take orders traditionally on pen & paper at the table. After you've taken the order, you can then walk over to your fixed EPOS screen and enter the order to send it to the Kitchen. This tends to be the preferred option for fine dining establishments & traditional restaurateurs who see the taking of the order as a key point of interaction with customers and a major service opportunity. The main criticism of doing things this way is that it can be inefficient at busy times & can mean that you need more wait staff on the floor.
If you use roaming terminals, you can arm your floor staff with tablets that allow them to enter customers orders directly into the EPOS (the interface tends to be the same as the main screens). This, in turn, allows orders to be sent directly from table to kitchen which saves staff having to walk back to the fixed stations. This tends to be the preferred choice for more casual environments where speed is often the key. Staff are able to spend more time on the floor, talking more orders & sending things to the kitchen faster. This means fewer people can serve more customers & turn tables over faster. The main criticism is that if staff aren't properly trained, then the tablets can act as a barrier between them and the customer detracting from the experience of eating in a restaurant. A few companies have found solutions to that issue whereby the tablets become a tool for boosting interaction. They allow you to add large images and descriptions to products that can be used as a digital menu to upsell at the table.
One of the biggest concerns that people have about moving to cloud based systems, is, what happens when the internet cuts out? There are 2 types of cloud based systems on the market, the first, 'pure cloud' requires a constant internet connection to work, if you internet drops out then the software will cease functioning. The second, 'hybrid' gives you the convenience of cloud based systems with the comfort of an offline backup, meaning that you can always run, even without internet. This is typically done using small local servers or Mac mini's and means that the entire system including all hardware will continue to operate. The only difference, is that data won't be sent directly to the cloud for reporting. It'll be stored locally, and will auto-send as soon as the internet connection is re-established.
We always recommend these hybrid software for restaurants where the POS is a crucial operations tool. Without it, customers orders can't be sent to the kitchen and it's extremely difficult to keep track of bills.
Especially important for restaurants that want to run multiple tablets, is understanding how those tablets communicate. You want to make sure that all of them can communicate live in order to show up to date order information. For example, you want to know that if a new table is opened on one tablet, that it also opens on the other.
Some systems do this locally using one tablet as the 'master', all tablets constantly look for the master (think of it like a lighthouse) & use it as a reference point to know what data to show. The downside to this method is that if there are any network interferences or issues with the master device, then the other devices lose their way. Other systems treat all tablets equally and they use the cloud or the offline backup as the reference point. From our experience, this is the most reliable method for running multiple tablets. If there's an issue with one device, the others will continue to run.
Depending on which type of restaurant you are, you may want integrated card payments. Integrated card machines connect to your POS software to allow you to send the amount to be paid directly to the machine without manual entry. This can make transactions faster & can minimise human error. We tend to recommend it if you're planning on taking payments at a counter.
If you're taking payments at the table, integrated machines aren't always the best way to go as you don't always know who's going to pay what amount when you arrive at table. As the card machines are controlled by the POS, you can end up in a situation where you're running back and forth across the restaurant sending each transaction from the POS to the card machine. The only time it makes sense to use integrates devices for tableside payments is if you're using mobile tablets which allow your floor staff to bring both the card machine and the tablet to the table.
It's always a good idea to ask whether a software company has similar businesses to yours using their platform. This does two things, firstly it helps show whether or not the salesperson truly understands your business & secondly it allows you to see if the system is proven in an environment like yours. You don't want to end up a guinea pig.

A robbery suspect is dead after exchanging gunfire with D.C. police officers in Southeast Washington Wednesday afternoon.
The incident was reported around 3:30 p.m. at 30th Street and Naylor Road SE.
According to 6th District Commander David Taylor, police officers attempted to stop a man who matched the description of a suspect wanted in a nearby robbery.
Taylor said the alleged suspect, later identified as 33-year-old Gregory Marcus Gray, then brandished a weapon and shot at officers, who returned fire.

An eyewitness, who wanted to remain anonymous, said police fired the first shots.
"A dude ... was running down the street and [the police officers] just stopped right there and jumped out the car and started shooting. I heard about 20, 21 shots," he said.
Gray was transported to a local hospital and later pronounced dead. A weapon was recovered from the scene.
Taylor said "approximately three" police officers were involved in the shooting. They were not injured.
Editor's note: D.C. police had initially identified the suspect as 29-year-old Raymond Robinson.

Gene Davis
Wall Street Journal, 14 September 2013
By PETER PLAGENS "Look at the painting in terms of individual colors," said the Washington painter of vertical stripes, Gene Davis (1920-1985). "In other words, instead of simply glancing at the work, select a specific color such as yellow or a lime green, and take the time to see how it operates across the painting.... And then, you can understand what my painting is all about." Usually—at least with me—it's annoying for an artist to tell viewers how to look at his work. But with Mr. Davis, and this deliciously select show of a half-dozen large paintings from 1961 to 1980, the instructions are entirely tolerable.
First, Mr. Davis wasn't a product of an art school or a university, but of a background as a young reporter. (He was at the White House for the announcement of D-Day and allegedly played poker with Harry Truman.) When he started painting as an adult, he thought being outrageous was the only way to go. In 1958, an edge-to-edge colored-stripe painting qualified.
Second, Mr. Davis's method of perceiving his paintings works, particularly when you alternate it with looking straight ahead at the entire picture. It's then that you notice the colors shifting to duller versions at the peripheries.
Could anybody who's reasonably neat and careful paint such stripe paintings? No. Mr. Davis had a conspicuous talent for picking without planning the colors that were precisely right for what he was about—creating beautiful abstract paintings.

Doctor Who 'attempting to enlist Phoebe Waller-Bridge to reboot show'
By roman johnson On Dec 1, 2022 34 0
Phoebe Waller-Bridge is reportedly going to help to refresh Doctor Who (Picture: Stefania D'Alessandro/WireImage)
The BBC is reportedly trying to enlist Phoebe Waller-Bridge to help reboot Doctor Who, after she was praised for her work on the script for James Bond blockbuster No Time To Die.
It's an exciting time for Doctor Who, with showrunner Russell T Davies returning for a second reign, and the BBC striking a deal with Disney+, which has also resulted in a much higher budget for the beloved sci-fi.
Now, it seems the show is in for a big refresh, with bosses reportedly keen to explore more of what the Whoniverse has to offer and turn it into a 'global superbrand' on par with Marvel and Star Wars. Apparently Phoebe cpuld be a key part of that.
An insider said: 'This is all part of a huge effort to deliver a huge reboot of Doctor Who and turn it into a global superbrand on a par with Star Wars and Marvel.
'But as part of that reinvention they also want writing which will match the investment they're making in the show – and Phoebe is now considered one of the best in the business. '
They added to The Sun: 'It's a question of whether they can come up with a strong enough deal to entice her to Doctor Who given she'll be constantly swamped with offers from around the world'.
She consulted on the script for No Time To Die (Picture: Tim P. Whitby/Getty Images for EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and Universal Pictures)
Fleabag creator Phoebe previously helped to refresh the script on No Time To Die.
She explained of her role: 'They were just looking for tweaks across a few of the characters and a few of the storylines.'
Rather than being brought in to make a woke Bond, Phoebe insisted that she wasn't trying to change the iconic character's personality.

'They were already doing that themselves. They're having that conversation with themselves the whole time,' she added to BBC Radio 4's The Today Programme.
'[My involvement] was much more practical. Just, "You're a writer, we need some help with these scenes. And you come up with some dialogue for these characters.'"
Next year, Doctor Who will celebrate its 60th anniversary, with legends David Tennant and Catherine Tate returning for three special episodes.
What we know so far about Doctor Who's 60th anniversary
Three special episodes of Doctor Who will air in November 2023 to celebrate the sci-fi's 60th anniversary.
Showrunner Russell T Davies has returned to helm the show, and we'll see some incredible Doctor Who legends returning.
Russell said of the upcoming episodes: 'If you thought the appearance of David Tennant was a shock, we've got plenty more surprises on the way!
'The path to Ncuti's Fifteenth Doctor is laden with mystery, horror, robots, puppets, danger and fun! And how is it connected to the return of the wonderful Donna Noble? How, what, why? We're giving you a year to speculate, and then all hell lets loose!'
Following the three specials, Ncuti Gatwa will take over as the 15th Doctor in a festive special in 2023.
Those confirmed to be starring in the three special episodes are:
David Tennant's return to Doctor Who was explosive (Picture: PA)
David made his explosive return to Doctor Who in The Power of the Doctor, which also saw Jodie Whittaker step down as the 13th Doctor.
He's not playing the 10th Doctor, but the new 14th Doctor before Ncuti Gatwa takes over.
Catherine Tate

Catherine Tate is returning as fan favourite companion Donna Noble.
How this will happen remains to be seen, as the last time we saw her was in the heartbreaking series four finale, when her memories of the Doctor and their adventures were completely wiped.
It was established that if she ever remembers, her mind would burn and she would die.
Yasmin Finney will play a character named Rose (Picture: David M. Benett/Dave Benett/Getty Images)
Heartstopper star Yasmin Finney is confirmed to be playing a character named Rose (not Billie Piper's Rose Tyler, but there could be some connection there).
It's rumoured that Yasmin's Rose will be Donna's daughter. Yasmin has also confirmed that her character is trans and that her role will 'change the world'.
Neil Patrick Harris
Neil Patrick Harris will make his Doctor Who debut (Picture: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images)
Neil Patrick Harris' role is being kept under wraps, but it's widely rumoured that he'll play the Toymaker, a powerful being who ensnared sentient beings in seemingly childish games.
The Toymaker has previously been played by the late Michael Gough.
Heartstopper star Yasmin Finney and Neil Patrick Harris are also set to appear, with reports suggesting that Miriam Margolyes is the latest star to join the cast.
After the anniversary, Ncuti Gatwa will take over the keys to the Tardis, with Millie Gibson playing the new companion, Ruby Sunday.
Russell said of the new era: 'If you thought the appearance of David Tennant was a shock, we've got plenty more surprises on the way!
'The path to Ncuti's Fifteenth Doctor is laden with mystery, horror, robots, puppets, danger and fun! And how is it connected to the return of the wonderful Donna Noble? How, what, why?
More: Doctor Who
'We're giving you a year to speculate, and then all hell lets loose!'
Exciting things to come!
The BBC declined to comment. Metro.co.uk has contacted reps for Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
Doctor Who returns to BBC One in November 2023.

The 50 most powerful people
Every year, the mainline magazines across the world release their own '50 most powerful' list. Everyone from the global elite to the local state honchos. And every year, this list keeps getting revised with some of the powerful losing their status, the others sliding down and several new 'powers' who are first timers. I did a quick Google search for the '50 most powerful' and it was a joke. Apart from the global list, there were these gems – 50 most powerful people in networking; 50 most powerful people in open source; 50 most powerful physician executives; 50 most powerful minority CEOs; 50 most powerful Gay Men and Women in America – see what I mean?
It's another device to sell more magazines. And puff up the self-importance of a few who would be miles away from a 'global influence' list. A businessman looking to manage growth expectations from shareholders and the public will do all he can to be featured on the 'most powerful' list since it would improve his chances of growing the business. A college looking for students will be desperate to be featured on the top 50 list of a well-circulated magazine. Companies making a beeline for the stock market listing will want to be in the 'Fastest Rising 50'. Or in the list that says '50 technologies to watch out for in 2011′ Want to know what the technologies in 2005 were the ones to watch out for? We're still watching out for most of them in 2011.
To get back to the Most Powerful 50 – Have the most powerful in open source made any difference to software adoption and usage? The 50 most powerful people in entertainment a decade ago are no longer on the list. The most influential businessmen, diplomats, actors, lawyers, real estate tycoons are no longer influential. What happened? Like Voltaire famously remarked ' The future is hidden, even from those who make it'.

Has Beyoncé gone into labour? Twitter seems to think so
Beyoncé fans have sent Twitter into meltdown amid rumours that the heavily pregnant singer may have gone into labour.
The 35-year-old is due to give birth to twins any day now and an increased security presence at a Los Angeles hospital has led many to believe that the process has already begun.
According to Hollywood Life, an insider said, 'Beyonce's security was seen leaving her Beverly Hills home this morning carrying two baby seats to a hospital in West LA
'Beyonce's due date was yesterday and she has been seeing her OB/GYN on a regular basis at a different location. This trip to this hospital is unique.'
Fans have taken to Twitter to express their excitement about the speculation.

It was previously reported that the singer has converted part of her house so she could deliver her twins form the comfort of her own home, however, latest reports suggest that she will in fact be giving birth in hospital.
In February, Beyonce's husband, Jay Z, announced that the couple were expecting twins.
The rapper said: 'We would like to share our love and happiness. "We have been blessed two times over."
"We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. – The Carters."
The couple, who married in 2008, are already parents to their five-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy.

Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris are the ultimate power couple
They may have only confirmed their relationship status with subtle shout outs and PDA filled snaps on social media but Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris are officially the music industry's most powerful couple.
Queen B and her husband Jay-Z have officially been dethroned.
According to Forbes the talented duo are number one in the ranking of highest paid celebrity couples ranking. The world's highest paid DJ and his Bad Blood singing bae brought in an impressive €130 million last year.
Mr and Mrs Carter meanwhile racked up just under €100 million. No slacking off in that household.
While Beyoncé and Jay's On The Run collaboration tour was hugely successful, and also incredibly stylish, Taylor's endorsement deals and multiple contracts for Harris mean they managed to kick the Carters off the top spot.
No hard feelings, we're sure.
Taylor has deals with Sony and Keds while DJ Calvin maintains contracts with Giorgio Armani and Sol Republic.
The magazine teased the news as part of their Celebrity 100 issue, and in the ranking of celebrity earners only three couples made the list. Aside from Taylor, Calvin and the Carters, country music stars Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton made the list.
Not that these stars aren't sharing the love. Taylor has been in the news recently for her generous donations to a family from Texas who were severely injured in a car accident. There's also her latest trend of giving credit to her fans when reposting their photos from her concerts.
Both Tay and her new BF have careers that seem to be getting bigger and bigger, so as long as they stay together, they could end up being a serious celebrity power couple.
Jay-Z's romantic plans for Beyoncé's birthday revealed!
After what seemed like a very shaky year for Bey and husband Jay-Z, we were hoping he had something amazing up his sleeve for her birthday celebrations… and he didn't disappoint!
The couple, along with baby Blue Ivy, were spotted arriving by private jet at the Bastia-Poretta airport in Corsica, and it's expected they'll now enjoy a relaxing holiday in the South of France.
A source told E! that the couple are looking forward to some family time. "They've had their problems but they're still solid. Going away for Beyoncé's birthday in September is a tradition they have. It's a chance to get some quality time together and relax far from worries about their crazy work schedules."
With the couple playing in Paris next week as part of their On The Run tour, the holiday fits in well with their hectic calendar.
There's be no camping or caravans for the glam couple though – apparently the Carters have rented a luxury yacht for the duration of their stay, with a price tag of around $800,000 per week. Wow!
With all the excitement surrounding Bey's birthday, we feel it should be a national holiday… and it seems like we're not the only ones! This fan took a stand earlier today and emailed her professor to say she couldn't attend classes as it was the "the Goddess that is Queen Beyoncé Knowles-Carter's birthday."
Eh… could we get a copy of that letter? Might come in handy next September 4th!

DUSTEX wanted a more modern-looking website, and better search engine rankings. After a thorough keyword research exercise, I re-wrote the whole website from ground up to incorporate SEO copywriting techniques – as well as making the information more customer centric.
The website design was created by Quokka Creative, with me project managing the process, so that DUSTEX could focus on their core business.

Just launched: a brand new website for Peninsula Marine Services – made by me (www.WebsitesByCornelia.co.nz). If you're in Auckland and you need new dock lines, superyacht mooring lines, winch servicing or any kind of marine project management, give Kevin a call.
Details of my website design, copywriting and photography service are here.
These websites were actually launched last year, but as I haven't mentioned them here before, here they are now!
Both websites have complex functionality in terms of the directory listings system, and the subscription system (both of which are e-commerce enabled). The websites are fully responsive and were created by the talented Trisha Cupra at Quokka Creative.
Scoping the requirements of the new website.
Ensuring that existing content from the legacy websites were transferred over.
Scope and set up the SEO of the new websites.
Develop and implement online advertising options, and creating an online media kit with ad specifications etc.
Launch the websites internally, including training staff on how it all works. This included face-to-face training; writing training notes; and creating video screencasts.
Launch the websites to my client's customers via email, informing them of the new features and functions.
Ensuring the sites were delivered on time and to budget.
The new websites have proven to be very profitable for my client; the new sites paid for themselves within a few months of launching.

A corporate client liked the initial website audit I did so much, that they ordered 2 more for their other websites!
All 3 website audits contained a Website Effectiveness Report (where I look at SEO and conversion factors), as well as a Statistics Summary Report (a plain English review of what's happening in Google Analytics).
I work on lots of email newsletters each month, here's one of the nicest looking ones I've done recently. I wrote the content, created the graphics, created the layout, and set it up for sending.

In short: Google has changed the number of characters it displays for your Page Title and Meta Description in your search results.
Introducing new (shorter) Google character limits for Page Title and Meta Description tags.
70 characters for Page Title tag, and 150 characters for Meta Description.
50 to 55 characters for Page Title tag, and 115 characters for the Meta Description.
Why worry about these new limits?
If you don't shorten your meta data, your search engine listings risk looking incomplete – or worst case scenario, looking like complete gibberish. This is very likely to hurt the click-through rate to your website.
Eh?! "Words By Cornelia is all about helping you dot-dot-dot"? That doesn't make much sense! An important part of my message (helping you sell more) has been rudely cut off!
And that's not all – the Meta Description is getting truncated too – especially on mobile devices.
But why did Google make this change to character limits? And when?
Google most likely made the change to provide a better experience for people using their phones for search. After all, people are increasingly accessing the internet from smart phones.
This change started appearing around May 2014 , so even if your website went live or got updated quite recently, you will be affected by this change.
If beforehand you had a nice, catchy headline showing, it won't be so catchy if there's a bunch of dot-dot-dots!
Are these new Google character limits set in stone?
Nope, nothing with Google is permanent or set in stone.
And as you can see, there are variations from the desktop search experience to what you see on your smart phone – even with these changes.
But I definitely think it's wise to embrace these shorter character limits. Any website copy I write for new clients will include meta data with these shorter character limits (and I'm contact existing clients to let them know if these changes to see what they'd like to do).
After all, website useage on mobile devices is on the rise all over the world, and it's best practice to give users the best possible online experience.
You need to review your existing meta data and make sure it's working as hard for you as possible. After all, a bunch of dot-dot-dots isn't going to compel Google users to click through to your site. Your meta data needs to be short, keyworded and punchy.
Also, make sure that any new pages (and also blog articles) stick to the new character limits.
Here are some helpful articles on this topic: New Title Tag and Meta Description Character Lengths and New Title Tag Guidelines & Preview Tool from The Moz Blog.

Home Education Despite limited resources, Kashmir University's School of Law contributes highly to education
Despite limited resources, Kashmir University's School of Law contributes highly to education
SRINAGAR: The contribution of the School of Law, University of Kashmir is paralleled in the educational sphere of Jammu and Kashmir.
For decades the students from the different parts of the union territory have been coming to this seat of learning, which has proved itself as the centre of educational excellence, whose alumni are spread all across J&K and other parts of the country.
School of Law, University of Kashmir holds an excellent academic record, which has the credit of producing scores of politicians, professors, lawyers, civil servants, and Justices. Some of whom have been elevated to the position of Chief Justices of the different High Courts of the country.
Notably, recently appointed chief justice of J&K and Ladakh High Court, Justice Ali Mohammad Magray was an alumnus of the School of Law, University of Kashmir. Mehbooba Mufti, former Chief Minister of J&K also was an alumnus of the Law Department, University of Kashmir.
Other prominent politicians produced by the Department include Peerzada Mohd Syed, Ali Mohammad Sagar, Main Altaf, Mir Saifullah, Abdul Haq Khan, Late Mushtaq Ahmad. All of them served as Ministers to the Government of Jammu and Kashmir. Justice Hussain Masoodi, MP from Anantnag constituency, and legislators, namely Shamima Firdous, Saif-ud-din Bhat, Bashir Ahmad Dar also have studied at the school of law.
This department of the University of Kashmir is very significant for its teaching, research and contributions to society. Established in 1973 with the continuous efforts of Prof. A.A. Wani and Prof. Riyaz Punjabi, the department started functioning in the Gandhi Bhawan, an Auditorium situated inside the University of Kashmir close to Zabarwan Guest House. Subsequently, it was shifted to the wooden barracks at Naseem Bagh.
From a small department in University of Kashmir, which initially even had not its own building, it has now progressed and grown into a prestigious Institute of legal studies. It has developed leaps and bounds in terms of infrastructure, academic domain, and other aspects and is presently the largest department of Kashmir university in terms of student intake in the University.
Head and Dean, School of law, Prof. Beauty Banday said, "As a premier Institute of legal education in J&K, School of Law, University of Kashmir has proved a stairway to the growth and development of thousands of students. It has for a long time now been able to accommodate demands of students who are interested in pursuing law as a career. The law school has a state of art infrastructure and which as of now facilitates legal education for as many as 1500 students and scholars at a time."
The School of Law is significant for its historic legacies and for proving its ability to adapt to the modern globalised world. The department constructed its new and second building in 2018. The new building has been built on the modern design, which is exquisite and aesthetic. The building design has a large glass front and all academic and faculty facilities are planned around a central atrium. The building is naturally ventilated and the UPVC fenestration system allows the building to be used in cold weather also, without being air-conditioned.
"The Department started its Masters Programme (LL.M.) in the year 1982 and B.A.LL.B. (5 year) integrated course in 2007. The Department, at present, has two buildings. One comprises classrooms and chambers for the faculty besides the offices of the Head/Dean. Moreover, the building was within it a Computer Lab, Library, Moot Court, examination Hall and Conference Room. The building also has a spacious library with modern facilities," Prof. Beauty Banday.
The quirky location of the School of Law provides an intellectually stimulating and tranquil environment for productive learning. It is flanked by the world famous Dal Lake on its eastern side and Nigeen Lake on the western side. The famous Hazratbal Shrine popularly called Dargah Sharif ('the Holy Shrine'), which contains a relic, 'Moi-e-Muqqadas', which is widely believed to be the hair of the Islamic prophet Muhammad (PBUH), is just a stone's throw from Law Department.
Many students from law department have won prestigious scholarships like Chevening Scholarship, Wong family Scholarship, etc. Hasnain Khawja, a Chevening scholar and Advocate at Delhi High court says, "Five Years spent in Law Department,University of Kashmir were the most enriching years of my life. Not only have I learnt academically there, but I learnt the real meaning of life."
"Despite very limited resources at their disposal, the law school over the years has emerged as the best law school in North India. Extra-Curricular activities were taking place every next day which gave students ample opportunities to hone their skills. Today, I find our alumni all across J&K and other parts of the country, holding very important positions and all of whom give credit to the School of Law, KU for their success," he added.

Japan's earthquake and nuclear crisis – The business impact
Channel NewsAsia Business Tonight
Synopsis of television interview with Spire's Chief Executive Officer, Leon Perera
Channel NewsAsia – Business Tonight
Channel NewsAsia: With manufacturers in Japan forced to suspend production, supply chains are clearly at a standstill. That in turn is disrupting supplies to manufacturers across the globe, and expert says this has exposed crucial weaknesses in a number of businesses ranging from the electronics to auto sectors. Japan as we know is a key supplier to the global auto and tech sector. For now, some manufacturers say they can cope as they still have some inventories. But how long can that last?
Spire: Well I think the inventories that they have in stock may be 30 days or 45 days or longer. These are the typical value of inventories that are kept in stock within these supply chains. But I think the more important factor is really to look at the planning processes that these companies have put in place. The impact of this disaster may not completely disrupt and knock out supply chains for an extended period of time, if you look at similar earthquakes and similar disasters and their effect on Japanese output in the past. Let's bear in mind that these are companies that are in an earthquake prone region and they have processes in place to plan for this. So I think probably the greater danger is not so much that there will be huge prolonged disruptions that will stop production of products going to the end consumer, but more so the price effect. For example, NAND semi-conductors have seen a price hike in the double digits because of this disruption.
Channel NewsAsia: We saw the disaster hitting transport networks and causing power outages. Do you see that as a bigger problem for companies in the coming weeks?
Spire: I would actually say that it's a bigger problem. I think you're quite right to point that out. Essentially there is a shortage of electricity that will be going to the manufacturing sector. There will be the prospect of rolling blackouts affecting both consumers as well as manufacturing. Basically the Tokyo Electric Power company is under tremendous strain as a lot of its capacity is coming offline because of what's going on with the nuclear reactors. The volume of production would most probably be affected because of this. Once again, that is going to feed more into the prices of these components rather than these supply chains being completely knocked out.
Channel NewsAsia: Some experts warned that the just-in-time delivery systems which are often used in the tech and car sectors are vulnerable to unexpected supply shocks like what we're seeing right now. What lessons do you think we can draw from these series of events?
Spire: Well I don't think that manufacturers are going to react to this by necessarily increasing the amount of inventory of key parts and components, or of finished goods. The thinking behind just-in-time is certainly still valid. I think what this argues for is more global diversification or geographic diversification of production and inventory, rather than just increasing the value of the inventory as such. And in particular, I think, this incident is going to prompt companies to re-look at their supply chains and look at areas that are prone to earthquakes, close to fault lines and close to the coastline, and, in particular, close to nuclear reactors. I think this could really be a game changer in terms of the business and global attitudes to nuclear power and also a game changer in terms of manufacturers locating facilities close to nuclear reactors. Probably the diversification and location of the inventories are going to be the thing that manufacturers rethink more rather than just increasing inventory and rethinking just-in-time as such.

NM Nonprofit Seeks to Mitigate Poverty's Effect on Area Schoolchildren
Shafaq Hasan
September 15, 2014; Santa Fe New Mexican
A nonprofit in New Mexico is working with students in nine schools to mitigate the debilitating effects that poverty has had on students in the Santa Fe Public School District and elsewhere in the area.
Communities in Schools New Mexico is a nonprofit grassroots organization that is a part of a number of other local groups coming together to aid students coming from homes struggling financially. Founded in 1998, the organization was originally called the Salazar Partnership and was created to provide academic, medical, and extracurricular support for students at Salazar Elementary in Santa Fe. As the nonprofit began helping more schools in different cities across New Mexico, it changed its name and was eventually incorporated into the larger national nonprofit, Communities in Schools.
The services the nonprofit provides range from working with teachers and nurses at the schools to helping one student work through his issues with algebra. However, in addition to providing the requisite academic support, Communities in Schools New Mexico also recognizes how complementary emotional help often is to solving academic problems.
"What happens outside in a student's day-to-day life is not separate from what goes on in school," said Julia Bergen, the state director of Communities in Schools New Mexico. "They are connected."
Currently, 70 percent of the Santa Fe school district lives below the poverty line. At Salazar Elementary, the school first serviced by the nonprofit when it started, 100 percent of the almost 400 students are on a free or reduced lunch plan. Last year, 80 students at Salazar were continuously monitored by and received sustained services from the nonprofit.
"Poverty is complex," as Andrea Slatopolsky, program director for the group, puts it. "It causes many symptoms. And it takes many, many people to alleviate those symptoms." This complexity may explain why nearly half of Santa Fe's public schools received a "D" or lower this year in their annual assessment by the state's Public Education Department. This assessment is based on the students' academic performance and growth at these schools.
The assessment's results show that the grades that schools receive often correlate to the poverty level of their district. Two public schools this year that received "A's" in the assessment have among the lowest poverty rates in their school district, while the two schools that received "F's" have poverty rates in the range of 80 to 100 percent. However, this correlation is not perfect; Turquoise Trail Charter Elementary School, which has a 69 percent poverty rate, also received an "A."
Recognizing the need to understand poverty's impact on education, Communities for Schools New Mexico has started to track its progress. Last year, their program included 4,000 students across the state, and of those students, 320 received continuous services and support.—Shafaq Hasan

First of all, please excuse the unexpected as you travel around the B4UBUILD.COM Web site; we're in the middle of the largest remodeling project in our 20-plus-year history — and NO, we do not have an estimated date of completion.
B4UBUILD.COM has been designed for use by anyone involved with residential construction. First time home buyers will find homebuilding books, a sample construction schedule, information about construction contracts, and a complete overview of the home building process. Move up buyers might find a new idea or a different house style in our photo album. Custom home builders will find a large directory of links to other home building resources and trade associations, as well as, a list of some of our pet peeves, which just might help them avoid conflicts with their clients.
Should you be searching for plans for your next construction project, be sure to look in our Plan Center, where you will find more than 11,500 house plans, home plan books, and blueprints for sheds, garages, log cabins, playhouses, and treehouses. If you are looking for tools or hardware, we have found links to dozens of tool companies and hardware manufacturers. You can involve your children in the construction process and enjoy some quality time together by helping them build a bird house or bat house and surf through our building & construction links 4 kids – be sure to read our short construction story to see who can identify the master builders first. And, just in case you are looking for information that we have yet to provide, you are welcome to look in our Lost & Found for links to other sources of information and some helpful search tips.
We are also exploring the relationships that form between the many people who need to work together to design and build the "perfect home". Homeowners, home buyers, architects, builders, designers, subcontractors, suppliers, lenders, lawyers, building inspectors, and tax collectors (well, maybe not tax collectors), should all be able to learn something new from someone else who is involved in a different aspect of residential construction. By listening to the viewpoints of others, we hope that our visitors might be able to see the home building process from a different perspective.

Shake Milton has been fantastic for Sixers to begin training camp
September 29, 2021 7:44 pm ET
The Philadelphia 76ers are looking for their next ballhandler given Ben Simmons continues his holdout to force a trade.
The Sixers have turned to Tyrese Maxey to initiate their offense with the first unit in training camp, but they have another option, fourth-year guard Shake Milton.
Milton was Philadelphia's starting point guard for parts of the 2019-20 season when Simmons was hurt. He was their point guard in the 2020 playoffs as well. A few days into training camp for the 2021-22 season he has caught the attention of coach Doc Rivers.
"Shake had a great day today (Wednesday) leading the second team," said Rivers. "You can tell he's put a lot of work in at that position where last year, honestly, he came into the year and had no idea he'd be a point guard. So, he's been fantastic for us. The first group today kind of showed up. It's good to see them. They played great."
Milton averaged 13.0 points off the bench in the 2020-21 season, and he looks to handle more responsibilities with Simmons essentially out the door. He is also learning how to be a leader for the second unit and handle everything. The good thing for him is he's on a team with respected veterans.
"Definitely a work in progress," said Milton. "It's not like it's a finished thing. I'm constantly learning every day. I try to take a little bit from everybody that I see. How Joel (Embiid) commands the team, how Tobias (Harris) uses his voice as a leader, and try to incorporate it into my own thing. It's been fun."
For the Sixers to have the success they plan on moving forward, they will need somebody like Milton to step up and provide more production. The first few days of training camp have given him a bit of a boost.
