Responsive Web Design: Relying Too Much on Screen Size
As people continue to go online using an ever increasing diversity of devices, responsive Web design has helped teams build amazing sites and apps that adapt their designs to smartphones, desktops, and everything in between. But many of these solutions are relying too much on a single factor to make important design decisions: screen size.
What's Wrong With Screen Size?
It's not that adapting an interface to different screen sizes is a bad thing. Quite the opposite. It's so important that key metrics like conversion and engagement usually increase substantially when Web sites adjust themselves to fit comfortably within available screen space. For proof, just look at how mobile conversion rates increase significantly more in responsive redesigns than PC conversions do.
So if adapting to different screen sizes can have that kind of positive impact for a business, what's the risk? As the kinds of devices people use to get online continue to diversify, relying on screen size alone paints an increasingly incomplete picture of how a Web experience could/should adapt to meet people's needs. Screen size can also lead to bad decision-making when used as a proxy for determining:
If a browser is running on a mobile device or not
If Network connections are good (fast) or bad (slow)
If a device supports touch, call-making, or other capabilities
There's still no relationship between screen size and bandwidth. Instead, we should ensure our work's as light as possible *for everyone*.
— Responsive Design (@RWD) October 28, 2013
None of these can actually be accurately inferred from screen size alone but they are comfortable assumptions that make managing device diversity substantially easier. The harsh truth however, is that output (screen size and resolution) is only one third of the equation -at best. Equally important to determining how to adapt an interface are input capabilities and user posture, which sadly screen size doesn't tell us anything about.
Let me illustrate with a few specific examples.
Screen Size Limits
On tablets, PCS, and TVs, Microsoft's Windows 8 platform allows any app, including the Web browser, to be "snapped" to the side of a screen thereby letting people interact with it while using another application in the primary view. As an example, the Windows 8 calendar application can be snapped alongside the weather app when making your daily plans.
Notice though, that the default view of the calendar application on Windows Phone 8 is quite different than the snapped view of the same app on a tablet, PC, or TV. They are both using the same amount of screen width (in relative pixels), but the mobile interface starts with a daily agenda instead of a small month view by default. The controls are also adjusted to the mobile form factor as you can see in the image below.
We can debate about why these differences exist and if they should or not but the bottom line is there's more than screen size being taken into account in these application designs.
This simple example illustrates the challenge for Web designers. On Windows Phone devices, Internet Explorer uses 320 pixels for its device-width (the width it renders content at). On Windows 8 tablets, PCs, and TVs, snap mode uses the same 320 pixel device-width to lay out Web pages docked alongside other apps.
So with a responsive Web design, people get the same interface on a smartphone that they get in snap mode on a TV screen due to the same device-width (320 pixels). You can see this illustrated in the image below.
But should the interface be the same? A TV is usually viewed from about 10 feet away, while the average smartphone viewing distance is about 12 inches. This has an obvious impact on legibility for things like font and image sizes but it also affects other design elements like contrast. So a user's posture (in this case viewing distance) should be taken into account when designing for different devices.
The input capabilities of a TV (D-pad) can differ wildly from a those of a mobile device (touch) or in some cases be the same (voice). Designing a simple list interface for d-pads requires a different approach than a creating a similar listing for use with touch gestures. So available input types should also be considered in a multi-device design.
When you take user posture and input capabilities into account when designing, an interface can change in big or small ways. For instance, contrast the design below for Windows 8 snap mode on a TV compared to a mobile version of the same feature.
While the screen size (320 pixel device-width) has stayed consistent, the interface has not. Larger fonts, a simplified list view, inverted colors, and a lot more have changed in order to support a different user posture (10 ft away vs. 12 inches), and different input types (d-pad vs. touch). As you can see, screen size doesn't give us a complete picture of what we need to know to design an appropriate interface.
Before you dismiss this as an isolated use case on Windows 8 devices, note that Android smartphones and tablets also offer the ability to interact with multiple applications side by side and Android-powered TVs won't be far behind. In fact, we've already got Android eyepieces like Google Glass that pose similar challenges.
Google Glass allows you to view applications and Web pages using a display that projects information just above your line of sight. The official specs describe the Glass display as a "25 inch HD screen viewed from 8 feet away." So right up front, viewing distance matters.
Like most mobile Web browsers, Glass uses a dynamic viewport to resize Web pages for its screen. On Glass the default viewport size is set to 960 pixels and pages are scaled down accordingly. So if someone is viewing the Yahoo! Finance site, it displays like this in the Glass browser (below). Essentially, it is shrunk down to fit.
The Web browser on Glass also allows pages built responsively to adapt to a more suitable device-width. In this case, 640 pixels. So a Web page designed to work across a wide range of screen sizes would render differently on Glass. Given that 600 pixels is a common device-width for 7 inch tablets, the page you'd see on Glass would look more like the following -adapted for a smaller viewport size.
In addition to the Web browser, Google Glass also includes a number of "glassware" applications built with the same Web technologies used to create Web pages. One of these apps provides access to stock price changes -very similar to what you see displayed prominently on the Yahoo! Finance site. However, the presentation of this information is very different. As you can see in the image below it's been designed as if you are viewing a 25" screen from 8 feet away. This design is much more suited to a wall-sized display than a small tablet screen.
This Glassware interface is also designed to make scrolling through information using the touchpad on the side of Google Glass (which comfortably supports sweeping left/right and up/down gestures) fast and easy.
So again user posture and input capabilities inform how to design for a specific device. Screen size alone doesn't tell us enough.
Supporting Everything
In order for an interface to adapt appropriately to different output, input, and user posture, we need to know what combination of the three we're are dealing with at any given time. On the Web that's been notoriously difficult. We can't tell TVs from smartphones or what devices support touch without relying on some level of user agent detection, which is often looked at dubiously.
Because of this, Web developers and designers have smartly decided to simply embrace all forms of input: touch, mouse, and keyboard for starters. While this approach certainly acknowledges the uncertainty of the Web, I wonder how sustainable it is when voice, 3D gestures, biometrics, device motion, and more are factored in. Can we really support all available input types in a single Web interface?
A similar approach to user posture is increasingly common. That is, an interface can simply ask people if they want a lean-back 10 foot experience, a data dense 2 foot experience, or something more suited for small portable screens. This makes user posture something that is declared by people rather than inferred by device. Once again, this kind of "support everything" thinking embraces the diversity of the Web whole-heartedly. However it puts the burden on each and every user to understand different modes, when they are appropriate, and change things accordingly. (Personally I feel we should be able to provide an optimal experience without requiring people to work for it.)
Ultimately trying to cover all input types and all user postures in a single interface is a daunting challenge. It's hard enough to cover all the screen sizes and resolutions out there. Couple that with the fact that an interface that tries to be all things to all devices might ultimately not do a good job for any situation. So while I embrace supporting the diversity of the Web as much as possible, I worry there's a limit to the practicality of this approach long-term as the amount of possible inputs, outputs, and user postures continues to grow.
Don't Assume Too Much
These examples are intended to convey one important point: don't assume screen adaptation is a complete answer for multi-device Web design. Responsive Web design has given us a powerful toolset for managing a critical part of the multi-device world. But assuming too much based on screen size can ultimately paint you into a corner.
It's not that adapting to screen size doesn't matter, as I pointed out numerous times, it really does. But if you put too much stock in screen size or don't consider other factors, you may end up with incomplete or frankly inappropriate solutions. How people interact with the Web across screens continues to evolve rapidly and our multi-device design methods need to be robust enough to evolve alongside.

"The gentle advice and classic images make for an evergreen pairing."--Publishers Weekly
Don Freeman was born in San Diego, California, in 1908. At an early age, he received a trumpet as a gift from his father. He practiced obsessively and eventually joined a California dance band. After graduating from high school, he ventured to New York City to study art under the tutelage of Joan Sloan and Harry Wickey at the Art Students' League. He managed to support himself throughout his schooling by playing his trumpet evenings, in nightclubs and at weddings.
Gradually, he eased into making a living sketching impressions of Broadway shows for The New York Times and The Herald Tribune. This shift was helped along, in no small part, by a rather heartbreaking incident: he lost his trumpet. One evening, he was so engrossed in sketching people on the subway, he simply forgot it was sitting on the seat beside him. This new career turned out to be a near-perfect fit for Don, though, as he had always loved the theater.
He was introduced to the world of children's literature when William Saroyan asked him to illustrate several books. Soon after, he began to write and illustrate his own books, a career he settled into comfortably and happily. Through his writing, he was able to create his own theater: "I love the flow of turning the pages, the suspense of what's next. Ideas just come at me and after me. It's all so natural. I work all the time, long into the night, and it's such a pleasure. I don't know when the time ends. I've never been happier in my life!"
Don died in 1978, after a long and successful career. He created many beloved characters in his lifetime, perhaps the most beloved among them a stuffed, overall-wearing bear named Corduroy.
Don Freeman was the author and illustrator of many popular books for children, including Corduroy, A Pocket for Corduroy, and the Caldecott Honor Book Fly High, Fly Low. --This text refers to the hardcover edition.

In October 1926 the Great Northern Railway opened its first greenhouse in Monroe on the west side of North Lewis Street just north of the Great Northern mainline, which is now the site of Del's Farm Supply. The greenhouses were designed and built by Englishman George Dishmaker, who settled in Monroe and built the elegant house and grounds that still stands on the southwest corner of Main and Kelsey Streets. By 1949 there were six greenhouses on the site, and before they were closed and dismantled in 1962, after the merging of the Great Northern, Burlington, and Northern Pacific Railroads, there were ten greenhouses and six acres for growing shrubs.
The greenhouses were built to provide flowers for all Great Northern passenger trains and shrubs for the landscaping of all Great Northern Depots. Every spring a crew from Monroe would travel the line to landscape the grounds along the way. At their peak, some 70,000 geraniums alone were grown annually to beautify Great Northern property during the summer months.
Some of the first flowers grown in the Monroe greenhouses went to decorate two special Pullman cars used by Queen Marie of Romania and her party when she visited the United States in the Fall of 1926. Hundreds of little bouquets and other cut flowers were shipped daily from the greenhouses to decorate the dining, club and dome cars. At Christmas, 2,000 special corsages were made and shipped so that each lady bordering the train on Christmas Day could have one.

SEOUL -- Hyundai Rotem, a train-making subsidiary of South Korea's Hyundai auto group, has clinched a $239 million order to provide 70 diesel-electric locomotives for Bangladesh Railway, the state-owned rail transport agency which operates the country's entire railway network.
Hyundai Rotem said Thursday in a statement that 70 diesel-electric locomotives would be delivered by 2023. The order came five months after the company won a 41 billion won ($36 million) order in May to build 10 diesel-electric locomotives for Bangladesh Railway.
Hyundai Rotem's locomotives with a top speed of 110 km per hour will be designed to operate freely on narrow and broad gauge railroads. With its new deal, the company has become a key contractor in Bangladesh's railway project.

Our esteemed clients Not only do they tell us how they feel but they are also telling their friends and associates of their experience with us. Here you can find some testionials from some of our customers who used our services for their special day or as the need arises from time to time.


On Thursday, August 6th, HCEG presented and HTMS?sponsored a Virtual Panel??From Concept to Reality: Practical Considerations of Implementing Alternative Reimbursement Models.?? Below is a summary of the call.
To those of us who have been in the healthcare industry for more than a few years it seems we?re always talking about alternatives to fee-for-service reimbursement.? Lots and lots of talk, and only bits of action?as an industry we?re a bit stuck in the gap between theory and practice.
To help us develop practical reimbursement innovation we were fortunate to have panelists today who are not only expert thinkers, they?re expert doers.? The panelists generously shared their practical experience in value-based reimbursement from both payer and provider perspectives.
Following Dr. DiLoreto, Dan Tuteur, Chief Strategy Officer at Colorado HealthOP shared the pros and cons of being in a startup health plan trying to bring reimbursement and benefit innovation to a well-established marketplace. Benefiting from a blank slate and no historical friction with providers, but handicapped by the inability to promise any patient volume, Colorado HealthOP was successful in finding providers who were already on the path from volume-to-value and capitalize on their interest and experience.? Interestingly, Colorado HealthOP is able to use their benefit agreements to drive change among their members and support from providers.? Members, who complete a health survey, have a basic lab panel done, and select primary care providers are rewarded with richer outpatient mental health and primary care benefits.? Happily, this dynamic has been popular with providers.? Dan predicts Colorado HealthOP will consider capitation for primary care and some limited bundled payments for orthopedics and physical therapy, but significant innovation won?t be implemented until 2017 and thereafter.
David DiLoreto, MD, CEO at Presence Health Partners, opened the discussion by walking us through how his ACO, which represents the continuum of providers, has leveraged its significant experience with government programs into the commercial arena.
Moving from volume to value is a team effort; including physicians from the get-go is crucial.
Don?t look to compensation redesign to fix everything. Peer pressure alone works very well in driving certain desirable changes regardless of reimbursement structures.
Design a balanced mix of incentives. For example, individual physician production is still important, so don?t build compensation formulae that hurt production unnecessarily.
Build a multi-tiered structure including global, departmental, and physician level components. Patient satisfaction and productivity should be evaluated for individual physicians, while quality and access are more meaningfully measured at the departmental level.
Measure at the outset for two reasons?to understand baseline performance, and to benefit from the phenomenon that measurement alone tends to drive behavior changes.
Offer alternatives. Physicians need multiple ?points of entry? depending on the nature of their specialty and their patients.
Size matters?incentives, thresholds, have to be big enough to get the attention of providers and make them change in the desirable direction.
Remember to keep hurdles low enough that providers have confidence they can get over them.
Prepare to change based on evidence and experience.
Q: When thinking about both impact and level of interest, what are the thresholds in terms of percent of revenue, percent of patients, or other levels do you think apply when trying to move to value-based reimbursement?? How much of a provider?s business must apply for them to be willing to make the investment in changes in practice to participate in an alternative reimbursement scheme?
A: Dr. DiLoreto shared that in his experience, 10% of a provider?s patients falling under value-based reimbursement is sufficient to get the provider?s attention; for a health system, 20-30% of total revenue is the threshold.
A: Dr. Samitt added that once a practice or patient population yields 30-40% of total revenue from value-based payments, the ROI for the provider is enough to drive the entire practice to a population health approach.? Dr. Samitt volunteered that in talking to physicians, he found using percentages was much less compelling than absolute dollars.? 5% seems small; $5,000 seems ?worth the hassle? of making the necessary changes.
A: Dan Tuteur explained that as a start up, they have no opportunity to drive these kinds of numbers, so instead of focusing on the volume of patients or revenue impact, they gravitated to physician who were already on the road to accepting alternative reimbursement.
Q: Can you comment on whether and how you used both benefits and provider contracts to change provider practices?
A: Dan Tuteur opened the discussion by explaining how they began by encouraging shopping for best prices and developing ways to make price transparency an advantage for members.? Colorado HealthOP hired an outside firm to manage this with members, but they found that providers? contract restrictions (with competing plans) made it difficult, in particular the way some contracts defined tiers.? They were helped by the benefit approach of offering better outpatient mental health and primary care coverage if patients participated in the wellness programs summarized above.
A: Dr. DiLoreto talked about the prevalent under-use of wellness benefits by members.? To offset member reluctance, they incorporated encouraging use of wellness benefits in provider contracts, which in turn gets more patients to their primary care physicians.? This has a secondary advantage for the provider and health plans by generating more primary care claims, which is crucial to member attribution to an ACO.
Q: Do you see a future where fee-for-service is the exception?
A: Dan Tuteur explained that as a start up their challenge in moving beyond vanilla fee-for-service is lack of historical data about their rapidly growing membership, where patterns of utilization were very different in year one than in year two.? With an accumulation of data, he believes it will be possible to estimate how quickly such a change could come.
A: Dr. Samitt wrapped up the conversation by stating that it depends on what we mean by fee-for-service?plain old payments without quality measures will become the exception within the next few years, but fee-for-service with quality incentives can and should persist.

Q: Elasticsearch.net IndexAsync returns success but no document is indexed I have a C# app that writes an Elasticsearch document to an existing index using the low level client from the Elasticsearch.net library.  In lower environments it works fine.  I've deployed to a new environment and validated the connectionstring, user and password to the Elasticsearch connection used in the intended environment.
The call's returned StringResponse.Success value equals true but no document is written.  I've tested writing the same document pointing my connection to a lower environment and that works fine.
Code:
StringResponse upsertResponse = await _lowLevelClient.IndexAsync<StringResponse>(_lowLevelSearchEngine.DefaultIndex, request.MemberId, PostData.String(request.MessageBody));

if (!upsertResponse.Success)
{
    // Never hits this point
    success = false;
}
else
{
    // Always comes here
    _logger.LogInformation("It worked!");
}

Any suggestions as to either:

*

*Why it reports success yet writes no document, or

*How to better verify success in the code

are appreciated.

The Times of Northeast Benton County is a weekly newspaper with a 1,300–1,400 circulation located in Pea Ridge, Arkansas, located in the northeast corner of Benton County. In addition to the city of Pea Ridge, the newspaper covers the communities of Little Flock to the south, Avoca and Brightwater to the southeast, Garfield, Lost Bridge and Gateway to the east, and historically — though intermittently in recent years — Jacket and Mountain to the north in Missouri.
Annette Beard, a resident of the area for more than 30 years, is the current managing editor of the newspaper.

History
The Times of Northeast Benton County is not the first newspaper to serve the Pea Ridge area, though it is the most successful and only existing one. The first recorded newspaper in Pea Ridge was The Advertiser, which was started by I.H. Baxter in 1905 and stayed in business nearly one year. The next newspaper was The Pea Ridge Pod, which was founded by an English immigrant named William Beck (1877–1948) in 1913. This newspaper was noted for its name and excerpts from it were used for the "Pickled Pods" column in the New York Times. For the first two years this paper operated out of Pea Ridge, but was moved to Siloam Springs in its third year and then folded.

The newspaper that would become the Times was first published on January 6, 1966 by James (Jim) and Margie Edgmon as the Pea Ridge Graphic out of their home in Springdale, Arkansas. The newspaper was purchased from the Edgmons in 1967 by Earle and Billie Jines. In 1972, the Jines merged the newspaper with the Cave Springs Scene, which they had started in nearby Cave Springs, Arkansas in 1970, and created the Pea Ridge Graphic-Scene, with the first issue carrying the new name appearing on December 7, 1972. By 1980, the Jines had sold the newspaper to Jack and Mary-Lou Beisner, who renamed it the Pea Ridge Country Times, to better reflect the coverage the newspaper gave to surrounding communities. The Beisners again changed the name of the newspaper, starting with the February 3, 1982 issue, to the Times of Pea Ridge Country.  Even after divesting her ownership in the newspaper, Billie Jines continued to contribute articles and columns to it and was largely seen as the preeminent local historian until her death in 2003.

By the late 1980s, Mike and Barbara Freeman had purchased the newspaper and operated it through most of the 1990s before selling it to Stephens Media LLC, which in 2009 merged its northwest Arkansas papers with those of Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Inc. to form Northwest Arkansas Newspapers LLC, the current owner of the Times of Northeast Benton County. It was under the ownership of Stephens Media LLC that the paper acquired its current name.

Rural Correspondents
For the first 30 years of its existence the newspaper depended heavily on rural correspondents from the local communities to fill its pages. Typically not having any formal journalistic training, these correspondents provided folksy weekly columns on the events and people of their communities. Because of these slice-of-life essays, it was often common knowledge who had bought a new vehicle, moved, went on vacation or had a baby. For years, former Pea Ridge Mayor Mary Rogers Durand wrote on the comings and goings of Pea Ridge proper, while Pearl Patterson covered the details of country living in the Mountain and Jacket community and others did the same for the Little Flock, Garfield and Brightwater communities. By the late 1990s these columns had started to become scarcer and scarcer in the newspaper, dwindling to just a few in its current incarnation.

There are many systems used in gambling, and in a large number of cases, roulette provides the perfect platform for the system. One such system is the Labouchere Betting System, which also known as the Cancellation system or the Split Martingale.
In this article I examine every aspect of the Labouchere betting system. I start with an explanation of the system itself. Then I take a look at the advantages of the system before moving onto the disadvantages and the dangers. I finish with an overview of the system.
Before you start playing at the table you'll first consider how much you actually want to win. You'll then break down this down into betting units.
For example, you might want to win $50 by betting in $5 units. This means that you will aim to win 10 units. You'll then write a line of numbers which add up to the total amount of units. This line will usually be a series of ones. However, you can use a mix of numbers.
If the bet loses however, you'll add a number to the right hand side of the line equal to the size of the last bet. This is how the line would look if the first bet lost.
You'll then repeat the action over and over again, striking the numbers at either end if the bet wins and adding a number to the right hand side if it loses (this number being the size of the losing bet).
Important: Your aim is to clear all the numbers, and when this happens you'll have won the original amount you had aimed to win.
The biggest advantage of the Labouchere betting system is the fact that you'll actually achieve your aim the majority of the time.
Consider that every time you win the line will reduce in length by 2, and every time you lose the line will increase by only one. This means that you'll only have to win a third of the time to maintain the line. In reality, you'll expect to win much more than a third of the time, so the line will eventually shrink to nothing, meaning you've met your aim.
So far, it's all sounded positive and virtually guaranteed, so where is the catch? The catch is that after a losing run some of these numbers can become big, possibly too big for your bankroll to handle.
At this point you are still only four or five spins away from winning, but your next bet size is $285 (based upon the $5 unit stake), and if it loses it will increase again. If the bet sizes become too big, you might have to quit, having made a much bigger loss than the amount you wanted to gain.
There is one fact that should be evident to all when playing roulette: You will not beat the house edge.
As such, any system will fall down in the long run. Having said that, if we avoided all long term losing situations when playing roulette, we'd never actually play the game at all. Using a system can be a fun way to spend your time at the table, and the Labouchere system is most definitely an interesting one.
Added to this, you'll have many occasions where you will indeed achieve your aim. However, the bad runs can be very harmful, so I'd suggest setting yourself a limit, where you'll only wager a certain amount before giving up, otherwise the amounts could get out of hand.

Rep. Keith Franke's statement on passage of premium relief, continued care
January 19, 2017 - Posted by SD54GOP Website Admin Tony Horton
On a bipartisan vote of 73-54, the Minnesota House approved the 2017 Health Care Emergency Aid and Access bill (Senate File 1) which provides direct premium relief and preserves access to life-saving and end-of-life care. While lawmakers work toward long-term state and federal health insurance reforms, this legislation institutes immediate consumer-driven improvements that stand alone and will not be impacted by those future changes.
"When I talk to folks in my district, one of the top things I hear is a need for healthcare reform," said Rep. Keith Franke, R-St. Paul Park, who co-authored the legislation. "The House was able to quickly deliver on its promise to pass this bill which includes needed reforms and premium relief for hardworking Minnesotans."
House Republicans' plan offers a 25 percent premium reduction for those Minnesotans who need it most — individuals who earn between $35,640 & $95,040 and families of four who earn between $72,900 & $194,400 who live in Minnesota qualify. In addition, it allows for patients with serious illnesses or those receiving end-of-life care to continue seeing their doctor. Lastly, the plan increases affordable options through timely reforms that stand independent of impending federal action.
"House Republicans have moved swiftly to provide relief and preserve care for Minnesotans," said Rep. Joe Hoppe, R-Chaska, the chief author of the bill. "I look forward to working with our Senate colleagues and the governor to see this bill signed into law as soon as possible."
The bill is expected to enter conference committee where differences between the Senate and House versions will be reconciled.

Q: Handlebars not rendering I have this code in my service:
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
const fs = require('fs-extra');
const hbs = require('handlebars');
const path = require('path');

const compile = async (fileName, data) => {

  const filePath = path.join(process.cwd(), 'src/templates', `${fileName}.hbs`);
  const html = await fs.readFile(filePath, 'utf-8');
  return await hbs.compile(html)(data);
}

exports.folhaPonto = async () => {
  try {
    const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
    const page = await browser.newPage();

    var d = {
      "mes": "julho",
      "author": "Felipe Paz"
    }

    let content = await compile('folha_ponto', d);
    console.log(content);

    await page.setContent(content);
    await page.emulateMedia('screen');
    await page.pdf({
      path: 'dist/pdf/teste.pdf',
      format: 'A4',
      printBackground: true
    })

    console.log('done');
    await browser.close();

  } catch (error) {
    console.log('Errors => ', error);
  }
};

And inside my controller I call this:
servicconst folhaPonto = const folhaPonto = require('../../../services/folha_ponto');

exports.folhaPonto = async (req, res, next) => {
  let d = await folhaPonto.folhaPonto();
  res.status(200).send('gerada folha ponto');
}

but my hbs file is rendering nothing. I can create the PDF file but only with static HTML. Does anybody here could show me where it's error?


Hi!! We are Soma and Rahul- The married duo behind Mommy Cuddle.
Growing up we followed the trend and enrolled in Engineering. Rahul followed the herd further with an MBA and both of us were comfortable working with MNCs till the entrepreneurial bug bit Rahul.
He had an experience in the Healthcare domain and decide to curate innovative products which improves the Quality of lives for fellow Indians. Be it inlicensed products, distributorship or Private Label products- he ventured into all territories possible with mixed success rate.
With Mommy Cuddle, it took us a lot of effort to get the fabric and design right. It was very important to have the strength as well as the flexibility so that the baby and mother are comfortable. Mommy cuddle has been extensively tested before being launched in the market and we are sure that mothers will love it.
We know that new born babies need to be held close and mothers spend a lot of time doing it. Either of the 2 things happen- either the mother doesn't have time for her own and ends up with a sore hand or the baby doesn't get the required bonding time with the mother. Babywearing has immense benefits but Indians are yet to get used to that and moreover when we searched the market for a babywear for a new born there was absolutely nothing. So a baby carrier is not there when you need it the most- the initial 3-4 months when the baby is born and no big company is focusing on that because it is not a big market for them. All these challenges did not daunt us and we wanted to make an actual difference in the lives of new parents by making their life a whole lot easier.
There was one particular instance which we will not forget- A one month old baby was continuously crying and being a first time mother, it was getting extremely difficult for her to handle the baby. Soma immediately handed her a Mommy Cuddle and as soon as the baby went inside the pouch it went into the most comfortable slumber ever. That was our first customer and we knew instantly that Mommy Cuddle is going to make the lives of many mothers easy and will make their baby time cherishable.
We have had so many parents call us back to inform us how Mommy Cuddle has touched their lives. Mommy Cuddle is not just a business- it is about making a substantial difference and that is the reason we have collaborated with Sankalp India foundation to donate 2% of whatever you give us for the betterment of lives of kids suffering from Thalasemmia. Read more about that here.
It would mean a lot to us if you share your experience of Mommy Cuddle with us. We wish you a happy baby time :) Feel free to connect to us and discuss about this whenever you like. We are here for you.

Naseer feels Vidya enjoys enviable position in filmdom
Naseeruddin Shah, who worked with Vidya Balan in two films -- Ishqiya and The Dirty Picture, believes that his co-star now holds an enviable position in the Hindi film industry.
bollywood Updated: Dec 29, 2011 18:10 IST
"She is a marvellous actress. She has been very brave, not just worked very hard but she is courageous in her choice of work... It is a testimony to her courage that she is in a position that most of our leading ladies would envy her today," the 61-year-old said at the music launch of his forthcoming film Chaalis Chauraasi.
Naseer further believes that Vidya is the only actress around whom a woman-centric script can be woven and added: "It's a wonderful thing. So hats off to the girl."
If he is highly impressed with Vidya, Naseer also admired Abhinay Deo's Delhi Belly, which was scripted by Akshat Verma.
"Delhi Belly! It was a very funny film. There is no compromise in the film except in the climax. It is not easy to make and script such a film. And the most important thing that the film, in which the audience's finer sensibilities were completely ignored, was allowed to be made," said Naseer who started his career with an off-beat film Nishant in 1975 before venturing into mainstream cinema with Hum Paanch in 1980.
In 2011, he was also seen in 7 Khoon Maaf, That Girl In Yellow Boots and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.
His Chaalis Chauraasi is releasing Jan 13 next year and he also has The Blueberry Hunt.

Но́ра Джонс (, полное имя Гитали Нора Джонс Шанкар (Geethali Norah Jones Shankar); род. 30 марта 1979, Нью-Йорк) — американская джазовая певица и пианистка, автор и исполнитель собственных песен, актриса. Дочь Рави Шанкара. Её единокровная сестра — Анушка Шанкар.

Биография и творчество
В 2002 г. выпустила дебютный альбом «Come Away With Me», который был реализован тиражом свыше 20 млн экземпляров и побил все рекорды, получив пять премий «Грэмми», в том числе в таких престижных номинациях, как «альбом года», «запись года» и «открытие года». Следующий альбом — «Feels Like Home» (2004) — был почти столь же успешным и принёс в её копилку «Грэмми» за «лучшее женское исполнение популярной музыки», «лучшее исполнение популярной музыки в дуэте» и «запись года» (за «Here We Go Again», дуэт с Рэем Чарльзом).

В 2007 выпустила третий альбом «Not Too Late» и стала одним из наиболее успешных музыкантов десятилетия, продав более 16 миллионов записей в США и 39 миллионов по всему миру. Тембр голоса Джонс и её эмоциональный диапазон нередко сравнивают с Билли Холидей.

В 2007 году Нора Джонс исполнила (в паре с Джудом Лоу) главную роль в фильме «Мои черничные ночи» — первой англоязычной работе гонконгского режиссёра Вонга Карвая. Отзывы на фильм и актёрскую игру Джонс были различными. Так, газета «New York Post» без обиняков заявила: «Скажем прямо — госпожа Джонс не умеет играть». Вместе с этим, голливудский продюсер Харви Вайнштейн заявил, что был впечатлён дебютом Норы и подыскивает для неё мюзикл.

В феврале 2014 года Нора родила своего первенца-сына, а в июле 2016 года — второго ребёнка.

2020 SALE Shun Classic Kitchen Knives
Shun Classic 6" Chef's Knife
SKU: SKDM0723
The Shun Classic 6-inch Chef's Knife is a lightweight, very maneuverable kitchen tool. This 6" knife is a nimble blade that's a nice alternative to the traditional 8" Chef's for smaller tasks. The most versatile knife in any block, the Chef's knife is an all-purpose blade that's the perfect length for slicing, dicing, chopping and mincing small and medium-sized foods - from strawberries to onions and eggplants. The rounded belly of this knife can be gently rocked through garlic and fresh herbs to produce a very fine mince. The wide blade keeps knuckles off the cutting board, and makes it easy to transfer ingredients from the board to the cooking pan.
The Shun Classic Chef's Knife boasts a thinner blade, which makes this knife lighter and less tiring than its European-style Chef's knife counterparts.
In the tradition of Japan's ancient sword smiths, each Damascus-clad Shun Classic knife is handcrafted in Seki City, Japan with a 100-step process. The blade is forged with 34 micro-layers metal on each side of a VG-MAX* cutting core. There are alternating layers of 431 and 410 stainless steel, plus one additional layer of nickel on each side of the cutting core. Forged into one single, strong piece of metal, these layers, which provide the beautiful, swirled pattern of the blade, support the core, add stain and corrosion resistance, and help the food slide from the blade. The durable, edge-retaining, easy to sharpen core of VG-MAX stainless steel is exposed at the critical point - the blade's cutting edge. The blade of each Shun Classic knife is sharpened to a cutting angle of 16-degrees on each side.
The beautiful Shun Classic handle is an iconic, ergonomic D-shape. It is made of ebony PakkaWood, a resin-impregnated natural hardwood that is durable and moisture resistant and does not harbor bacteria.
Features of the Shun Classic 6" Chef's Knife:
VG-MAX stainless steel cutting core
33 micro-layers of SUS410/SUS430 stainless steel on each side of the cutting core
1 layer of nickel on each side of the cutting core
16-degree cutting angle on each side, flat ground
Bead blasted and acid etched to provide texture, reduce drag and enhance beauty
D-shaped ebony PakkaWood handle
Full composite tang
Blade Length: 6 inches
Engraving: Up to 10 characters can be laser engraved on this chef's knife.
*What Is VG-MAX Steel?
VG-MAX is the newest in the line of VG super steels, building on the highly successful VG10 formula. VG-MAX contains more carbon, which provides strength and durability to a knife blade. Added chromium provides wear and corrosion resistance. Higher cobalt content enhances the strength of the blade, and increased tungsten allows the steel to be very fine-grained so the edge can be extremely fine and sharp. Molybdenum contributes to corrosion resistance and strength, while vanadium improves impact resistance and allows the steel to form vanadium carbides, which enhance cutting performance. Shun sharpens VG-MAX in its knife blades to 60-61 on the Rockwell Hardness Scale.
A Bit About Shun
Shun kitchen knives are made by KAI Corporation, which has been handcrafting blades in the spirit of the legendary sword smiths of Seki City, Japan for over 100 years. Every Shun knife is handmade by a team of highly skilled specialists and requires at least 100 handcrafted steps. This tradition of Japanese sword-making excellence in Seki City is combined with technology and advanced materials in each Shun knife.
Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan • Limited Lifetime Warranty

Kylie Jenner's Cosmetics Company Is Basically Worth More Than Gold
Gabrielle Dyer August 10, 2017 3:31 pm
Help us, we're poor.
It's not exactly news to anyone that Kylie Jenner is raking in the dollar. A member of one of the most famous families in the world, at 20 years old she owns a mansion, an insane car collection and a wardrobe we would chop off our right arm for.
A post shared by Kylie (@kyliejenner) on Jun 16, 2017 at 8:59pm PDT
But alongside the family fortune she's got her fingers in a lot of pies – her ever growing cosmetics company which started off as lip kits now has highlighters, eye shadows and everything in between.
Shoutout to these ladies for the beautiful swatches of some of my makeup 😍 always so pretty.. @kyliecosmetics KylieCosmetics.com

We kind of assumed business was booming, but we could never have imagined just how much money her line has been making. According to WWD, Kylie Cosmetics has brought home 420 million dollars in the last 18 months and her recent birthday collection took home $10 million in just one day.

Yep. Lets all keep in mind that currently, the star hasn't opened any shops and doesn't have her products stocked in any stores, so these figures reflect sales made solely online and at her occasional pop up's around America.
Apparently Kylie has plans to start selling her products at big beauty stores like Sephora, although she hasn't yet figured out how or when. Looks like the only way is up. BRB while we decided whether or not we can afford an M&S sandwich.


Toronto, Canada: February 22, 2017 – Redwing Institute, known for its Culture & Nature Discovery Walk, focused on exploring traditional Indigenous culture & teachings through a positive psychology lens, is honoured to present it's first program at an Individual Podium Presentation at the International Positive Psychology Association (IPPA) Fifth World Congress being held in Montreal, Canada this coming July. The presentation explores the key findings around the intersection between scientific research and practical application of positive psychology principles and models in an outdoor experiential learning environment.
Recognizing the rising rates of mental illness worldwide, Gervais developed the program with the goal of re-connecting urban dwellers with the natural world and to traditional teachings which positive psychologists have recently recognized that promote human flourishing, well-being and success.
The Culture & Nature Discovery Walk explores the connection between Canadian Indigenous Teachings and Martin Seligman and Chris Peterson's recent body of work on the Values In Action Character Strengths and Virtues. Their research demonstrates that when we recognize and utilize our individual key character strengths, in our work life and play life, we have greater life meaning, are happier, have greater resources to pull from in times of difficulty to keep us resilient and are more successful in life.
"We received a record number of proposals this year, many of which were outstanding. This high-caliber bodes well for a strong World Congress On Positive Psychology Program in Montreal" said Barbara Fredrickson, Ph.D., IPPA President and 5th World Congress Chair.
Awarded the 2016 "Unique Experience of the Year" for Toronto, by the Luxury Travel Guide Global Awards for the Culture & Nature Discovery Walk, Redwing Institute is an experiential learning organization, based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The programs are grounded in the science and practical application of positive psychology, the scientific study of human flourishing, well-being and strengths, which enable individuals and institutions to thrive. Learn more by visiting redwinginstitute.com. Connect with us on Facebook and Twitter.
The 5th World Congress promises to be the premier event to build collaborations and share progress in the science of positive psychology and its evidence-based practices. The Congress will be held in Montreal, Canada from July 13th to 16th, 2017 at the Palais des Congrès de Montréal. For more information about the Congress visit http://www.ippanetwork.org/wcpp2017.
The International Positive Psychology Association's missions are to promote the science of positive psychology and its research-based applications, facilitate collaboration among researchers, teachers, students and practitioners of positive psychology around the world and across academic disciplines and to share the findings of positive psychology with the broadest possible audience. The Association comprises of thousands of members across 70 countries worldwide. Learn more about the Association by visiting http://www.ippanetwork.org.

As we ring in the New Year, let's take a brief look back 100 years ago to 1919, as a means to truly appreciate the extraordinary world we live in today.
World War I ended in 1919 with a total casualty count of 37 million.
The Spanish Flu finally ended as well, with a sum total of 500 million people infected (33% of Earth's population!) and 50 million estimated deaths.
Proportional to the Earth's population today, this would be the equivalent of a death-toll ranging between 200 - 350 million people. Absolutely devastating, and a reminder of how lucky we truly are today in the twenty-first century.
Women's rights! The U.S. Congress approves the 19th Amendment.
The first passenger air service was offered between Paris and London.
UPS was founded as a company.
The U.S. Army completed its "first transcontinental motor Convoy expedition driving across the United States." It took them 60 days!
The NC-4 Aircraft completed the 1st multi-stop flight across the Atlantic (19 days).
Raymond Orteig offered $25,000 for the first nonstop flight between New York and Paris.
The Toaster (yup, that's all I found on meaningful inventions).
In comparison (at least technologically) we have more achievements per hour today, than 1919 had in the entire year. We are truly living during the most extraordinary time ever.
So, how much difference can 100 years of progress make? A LOT.
AND, as we march toward the Singularity, it's important to realize that the speed of change is accelerating… and every aspect of how we live our lives will change in the next decade.
In the next 10 years, those surfing on the tsunami of change (rather than getting crushed by it) will create more wealth than was created in the past century.
Every industry will be transformed… and how we raise our kids, run our companies and lead our nations will change as well.
You can be fearful of change, or you can realize it is happening and harness it.
For those prepared, exponential change will help us digitize, dematerialize, demonetize and democratize access to energy, transportation, education, health, knowledge and communications.
Technology will turn that which was once scare into abundance, over and over again.
P.S. -- One reason I committed to running my CEO Mastermind, Abundance 360for a 25-year span, is that it takes us thru 2038, effectively a Countdown to the Singularity.
My 2019 membership is almost completely full, but we're saving a few seats for entrepreneurs who are making progress on their world-transforming Moonshots. Start the membership process by telling us about yourself here.

I'm trying to enter a slime mould - Enteridium lycoperdon but cannot.
Is it missing from the database or have I misspelled it?
Also trying to enter Scorpion fly but can only do so using its scientific name Panorpa communis. When I do this, the vernacular name appears but appears to be not found by typing it in.
Thanks Rimo - that explains it fully. I will make the necessary changes to my input.


Mazar Strain won 2nd place in the 1999 High Times Cup and High Life Cup 2002. With very high levels of THC (on par with White Widow), it produces a very nice up high stone. The plant is highly consistent and has a great taste. Its unobtrusive scent makes it easy to conceal and easy on the throat. Mazar can also be grown outdoors in warmer climates. Mazar is one of our favourites.


The PediX post foot is a post bearer that meets the requirements for constructive timber protection. It can be mounted on the end grain of the post using fully threaded screws with no need for joinery work or pilot-drilling. An EPDM gasket between the post foot and post provides additional protection for the wood against penetrating moisture. After assembly, the height of the post foot can still be adjusted by up to 50, 100 or 150 mm (except PediX B500). Thanks to the height adjustment, manufacturing tolerances relating to the structure and subsequent settlement in the individual foundations can be balanced out. The post foot has high tensile and compressive load capacities. The foot's durability is ensured through hot-dip galvanisation in accordance with DIN EN ISO 12944-2 (C3).
* PediX B500+50 is not regulated according to an ETA.

Trump Slams Recount: "Nothing Will Change", Bernie Sanders Agrees
The escalating scandal over Jill Stein's recount effort continued this morning, when President-elect Donald Trump early Sunday predicted on Twitter that a recount effort in three states will not change the results of the election. "Hillary Clinton conceded the election when she called me just prior to the victory speech and after the results were in. Nothing will change," he tweeted.
Hillary Clinton conceded the election when she called me just prior to the victory speech and after the results were in. Nothing will change
Incidentally the same sentiment was shared by Bernie Sanders on CNN who said that "no one expects there to be profound change" from the recount:
Sen. Bernie Sanders: "No one expects there to be profound change" from the recount https://t.co/6OZtrfIwim #CNNSOTU https://t.co/QIA3KFbvlF
— CNN Politics (@CNNPolitics) November 27, 2016
As reported previously, on Friday Green Party candidate Jill Stein filed for a recount in Wisconsin, and is concurrently raising the funds needed for similar efforts in Michigan and Pennsylvania, all battleground states won by Donald Trump. Stein on Saturday defended her push after Trump called it a "scam" to fill Green Party coffers.
"The point to drive home here is that having a secure elections process benefits us all," Stein said during an appearance on CNN's "Newsroom."
Making matters more complicated, on Saturday an attorney for Hillary Clinton's campaign said on Saturday it will participate in the Wisconsin recount. What was surprising is that Marc Elias, the campaign's general counsel, effectively admitted there was no grounds for a recount when he emphasized that analysts employed by the campaign have largely found no evidence to conclude that the election was sabotaged.
"The campaign is grateful to all those who have expended time and effort to investigate various claims of abnormalities and irregularities," Elias wrote in a Medium post. "While that effort has not, in our view, resulted in evidence of manipulation of results, now that a recount is underway, we believe we have an obligation to the more than 64 million Americans who cast ballots for Hillary Clinton to participate in ongoing proceedings to ensure that an accurate vote count will be reported."
Trump later blasted the participation of "badly defeated & demoralized Dems," saying they initially asked for "election night tabulation" to be accepted.
The Clinton flip-flopping on the issue was not lost on Trump, however, who also on Sunday pointed to Hillary Clinton's remarks after he suggested during the final presidential debate that he might not accept the election's results.
"It was horrifying what he said," Clinton told reporters.
Hillary's debate answer on delay: "That is horrifying. That is not the way our democracy works. Been around for 240 years. We've had free --
and fair elections. We've accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them, and that is what must be expected of anyone standing on a -
during a general election. I, for one, am appalled that somebody that is the nominee of one of our two major parties would take that kind --
of position." Then, separately she stated, "He said something truly horrifying ... he refused to say that he would respect the results of --
this election. That is a direct threat to our democracy." She then said, "We have to accept the results and look to the future, Donald --
Trump is going to be our President. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead." So much time and money will be spent - same result! Sad
As Politico adds, Kellyanne Conway, a top Trump aide, picked up where Trump left off, calling the recount "ridiculously fantastical" and accusing Democrats of being unwilling to accept the election results.
Conway, during a Sunday interview on ABC's "This Week," hit back at Stein, saying the number of votes she won in Wisconsin is "like the number of people who tailgate at a Packers game. It is not a serious effort."
We expect the "recount" issue to dominate the news cycle until Stein either succeeds in challenging Michigan and Pennsylvania, or her effort is aborted by local authorities.

Seriously Misleading UCC Searches
By Andy Nicoll on July 31, 2015
Determining whether a security interest is properly perfected by using a state's online lien search may be leading you astray.
Perfecting a security interest in collateral establishes the priority of the secured party's claim to such collateral, providing the perfected secured party with an interest in such collateral superior to the rights held by most subsequently perfected security creditors or judicial lien creditors. For most types of collateral owned by an entity, a security interest may be perfected by filing a financing statement describing the security interest with the secretary of state's office in the state where such entity is formed. A financing statement is a form of public notice intended to inform others dealing with such borrower (referred to as a "debtor") that the debtor has granted a security interest in its assets.
The Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC") dictates that a financing statement covering property owned by an entity debtor (as opposed to an individual) must identify the debtor by its exact legal name. Nonetheless, to alleviate the otherwise disastrous consequences of harmless errors or omissions in a financing statement, the law provides that financing statements are effective (even with errors) so long as they are not "seriously misleading."…

Perfecting Security Interests in Assets of Ohio Gas and Pipeline Companies
By Porter Wright on March 22, 2013
With the recent boom in Ohio's oil and gas industry, secured creditors in Ohio should be sensitive to special statutory requirements for perfecting security interests granted in assets of gas and pipeline companies.
Although security interests in personal property and fixtures are most frequently perfected by filing financing statements under the UCC, there are several types of security interests which require perfection through other channels. In Ohio, pursuant to Section 1701.66 of the Revised Code, security interests in property of "public utilities" are among the interests that must be perfected by other means. "Public utility" is defined by the Ohio Revised Code Sections 4905.02 and 4905.03 to include, among others and with certain exceptions, (i) gas companies and natural gas companies, when engaged in the business of supplying artificial or natural gas, as applicable, for lighting, power, or heating purposes to consumers within Ohio and (ii) pipe-line companies, "when engaged in the business of transporting natural gas, oil or coal or its derivatives through pipes or tubing, either wholly or partly within [Ohio], but not when engaged in the business of the transport associated with gathering lines, raw natural gas liquids, or finished product natural gas liquids." (Emphasis added). Additional …
Update – UCC Search Logic: Can Secured Creditors Be Too Careful?
By Porter Wright on October 22, 2010
Last year (October 23, 2009) we posted on the topic of UCC search logic in light of the bankruptcy case of In re EDM Corporation 2009 Westlaw 367773 (Bankr.D.Neb.). In the bankruptcy court, the first-filing lender lost its priority because it had filed a UCC-1 financing statement with the debtor name listed as "EDM Corporation d/b/a EDM Equipment," which was not located by the two later-filing lenders when doing a search on "EDM Corporation," which was the debtor's true legal name. The bankruptcy court held that the financing statement was "seriously misleading" and rearranged the priority accordingly.
Under Revised 9-506(a), errors or omissions in a filed financing statement are of no consequence unless they render the financing statement "seriously misleading." Revised 9-506(c) provides that if a search in the filing office using the filing office's standard search logic would disclose the financing statement, then it is not "seriously misleading," even if it fails to provide the precise name of the debtor as required under Revised 9-503(a).
This case was recently taken up on appeal to 8th Circuit Bankruptcy Appellate Panel (In re EDM Corporation, 2010 WL 1929772 (8th Cir. BAP May 14, 2010)). The appellate panel noted that …
