High performance Widgets: Optimize your JavaScript
This article is the number three of the series, High performance Widgets, and continues what we started in High Performance Widgets: CSS Sprites and High performance Widgets: Combine your JavaScripts and CSS in external Files .
JavaScript are getting more important every day. They have broken the web barrier and now are used in different platforms, such as our beloved WRT. To supply these new needs, the applications are getting larger, more complex and sophisticated. But if not watched, this sophistication can cost you a slow performance for your app, widget or website.
Like Joseph Smarr said, Performance is something that you need to take seriously from the day one. If you don't, may be too late when you find out.
There are millions of techniques to speed up your JavaScript. The objective of this article is to show some of this tips, that when applied to your Widgets or mobile websites, will help you to make it faster and better for the user experience.
Watch your DOM
Well, DOM interaction is not fast. I know that, and you know that. The Document Object Model can run slowly by different motives. One of the most common things that make your JavaScript slow is when too much things happen inside your DOM, like redrawing or reflows.
Reflow is one of the most expensive functions of a browser. This is a far more significant change. The reflow happens when:
- When you add or remove a DOM node.
- When you apply a inline style.
- When you get a measurement or info that must be calculated, such as accessing offsetWidth, clientHeight, or any computed CSS value (via getComputedStyle() in DOM-compliant browsers or currentStyle in IE), while DOM changes are waiting to be made.
After any of these examples above, the engine must then reflow all the related elements to work out which and where the various parts of it should now be displayed. Its children, Ancestors and all the elements that appear after it in the DOM tree, will alson be reflowed to calculate their new layout, as they may have been moved by the initial reflows. After all this processes, finally, everything is redrawed.
Visualize some Redraw and Reflow
This videos, show how the Redraw and Reflow process works on the web browser.
Gecko Reflow Visualization - mozilla.org
Gecko Reflow Visualization - Wikipedia
Good with them, better off without them.
Reflows and Redraws, affect the whole widget performance, because they affect the whole document. The more it happens, the longer the document will take to make all the changes.
Reflows something, that developers should keep at minimum, as long as they want to make their scripts running fast. But, Though animations, transitions and stuff are all based on reflows, we still want them to make our app prettier.
Notice that some elements have significantly slower reflows than others. Reflowing an element with table display, can take as much as three times as long as reflowing an equivalent element with block display
Apply animations to elements fixed or absolute.
Elements which are positioned as Fixed or absolute don't affect the document or other elements layout, so they will only cause a repaint instead of a total reflow. This is much lighter and better for your widget.
How to get rid of them
Another common source of multiple reflows is making changes to an element's appearance via the Style (CSS in case you're usign jQuery) property. For example:
//Style Changes using jQuery
$('element').css('fontSize', '13px');
This jQuery code has three style changes, what gives us three reflows. Each reflow happens linked to every change in the style of this element. The solution to keep reflows at minimum in this case, is to group all this changes in a new CSS class, and than use the jQuery or JavaScript to change the class.
/*The same changes now are in the CSS*/
.newStyle {
background-color: #CCC;
color: red;
font-size: 13px;
Then you reduce the javaScript to one line.
Changing the class of an element counts allows all of the styles to be applied at once, within a single reflow. This is much more efficient and also more maintainable in the long run.
Trade smoothness for speed
Means that you should choose the best option for your user. As tempting as making a smooth animation transition can be, you should set them to animate the fastest as you can. Instead of seting the transition animation using a 1 pixel(10ms) at a time you shoul try something less smooth, like a 5 pixels (50ms).
It can be neccessary to swallow the developer pride, and trade some of the smoothness of the animation for speed instead. The sophisticated animations, may make your widget look slow, because it will need much more processing power. That is a bad response to the user. I recomend you to use the simple Hide/Show jQuery Solution, which is a less smooth solution, but is the fastest response your user can get on lower powered processors.

Truancy policies, new grading system on Rochester School Board agenda
Thursday, January 3, 2013
ROCHESTER — The Rochester School Board's Policy Committee will meet tonight with a packed agenda, including discussion of the district's revised truancy policies and a new grading system.
The policies on the agenda to update are JED — student absence and excuses — and JEDA — truancy. Pastelis said he doesn't see himself making any major changes, but he could not speak for other committee members. If the policies are approved, they will be sent on to the full board for review next Thursday, Jan. 10.
Additionally, board members clashed recently over the idea of who could hand out diplomas at Rochester high school graduations. A proposed policy said the event should be limited to principals and the superintendent handing out awards, while some argued the procedure should be opened up to other school staff and even Rochester School Board members.

Top Ten Reasons Why Eastern Market is and will remain Detroit's most "True Green" neighborhood
True Green combines economic vitality, environmental sustainability, and social equity
10. Evolving a Public Market on a solid historic foundation
Green is all about using existing assets and Eastern Market takes advantage of one of our greatest assets - rich agricultural diversity that is second only to California in the number of crops grown locally.
9. Passionate revitalization participants
Eastern Market, despite population loss and economic turmoil, remains a place of intense urban activity and commerce. Recent market survey work reveals not only that upwards two million people visit the market each year but that those who come care very deeply about this place.
8. Add new development and leverage existing infrastructure
Leveraging previous public investment in facilities and infrastructure is another key green component. We have a diversified building stock that offers renovation opportunities as well as vacant land to accommodate new facilities.
7. Proximity to other important assets
Eastern Market is close to Midtown, Downtown, Lafayette Park, and the Riverfront. This proximity provides an important and unique building block to creating a viable urban core at the heart of Detroit.
6. Celebration of diverse food cultures
The agricultural diversity of Michigan is only one reason for our rich local food culture. Key ethnic groups including Italians, Arab-Americans, Latinos, and African-Americans and others have contributed their food cultures to the kettle - yielding a mighty tasty and uniquely Detroit gumbo.
5. Full integration of food, housing, and access to work
More than 125 residents live in Eastern Market and our draft Economic Development Strategy indicates room for 600 more residences. Living green means easy access to jobs and food by foot or bike and no neighborhood can do that better than Eastern Market and those neighborhoods which abut.
4. Focus on small, independently owned business
More than 175 vendors sell products under the sheds at Eastern Market while another 125 businesses operate in the Eastern Market District. These vendors and merchants are hard survivors who will endure the current economic stress and come out the other side as significant job generators.
3. Energy efficient operations
Eastern Market provides year-round retailing with only one shed partially heated. It doesn't get much more efficient than that. However, to make the market function better and attract more customers the addition of heat and some cooling is critical. To insure low operating costs it is imperative that systems like geo-thermal, which uses the steady temperature of ground water or methane produced from nearby waste streams, be utilized to provide improved climate control without adding to Eastern Market operating costs.
2. Improving Detroit's public health
The rich diversity of Michigan's agriculture and the strong local food culture does not always translate to healthy eating choices. Eastern Market is an important source for healthy food now, but needs to play a much larger role in expanding both the supply of and demand for healthy food. This can be done by attracting more people to the market, by increasing educational outreach regarding the connection between our diets and our health, and by developing innovate ways to get the healthy food that comes through our wholesale markets into the diets of Detroit residents that cannot get to Eastern Market.
1. Local food system hub
It's estimated that if 25% of our food could be sourced locally it would generate nearly 5,000 jobs, create $20 million in new local taxes, and $125 million in new household income. A more robust local food system built on the strong local food foundation here at Eastern Market can improve our environment while rebuilding our economy.
We already process, distribute, and sell food at Eastern Market. We need to improve and expand how we do those things while we complete a real food system by educating people about how to eat, assisting in the expansion of food production from within the city and the region, and by capturing the nutrients of what we refer to as waste to restore the productivity of our soil.
True Green is not just about one thing like energy efficiency or alternative energy development - it's about thinking more strategically and systematically about the economic vitality, social equity, and environmental sustainability of our city.
A robust local food system not only creates jobs and grows incomes but improves the health of our most vulnerable residents and enhances our natural environment.

The informative marathon that was the opening day of TechSec drew to a close with the inaugural SSN NextGen panel discussion, moderated by yours truly, which showcased the perspectives of four honorees from SSN's latest "20 under 40" class. The discussion revolved around four areas of technology—video verification, cellular networks, mobile apps and interactive services—that the panelists identified as crucial points of focus with respect to the industry's future.
As I mentioned in the introduction, the panel provided a good snapshot of the industry. There were representatives from the systems integration side and the alarm monitoring space, and we also heard from an IT director at a super-regional. Well versed across the spectrum of topics, the speakers were able to weigh in on industry topics that were even a bit outside the scope of their professions.
Joe Parisi, senior account executive at Rapid Response Monitoring, led an in-depth discussion on the value proposition of video verified alarms, and how an awareness of that proposition should guide how a company deploys and sells the offering.
The discussion branched next into the related topics of mobile apps and cellular technology. Johnny Cunningham, IT director at ADS Security, reflected on some of the challenges of the industry's reliance on cellular networks, and Robert Gaulden, VP of sales and marketing at Kratos, discussed the future of NFC technology and clarified some of the demands involved with Kratos' NFC pilot project at Arizona State University.
Jesse Rivest, territory manager at Affiliated Monitoring, spearheaded the portion of the panel devoted to interactive services. He forecast an expanded array of automated functions entering the mainstream, marked by the continued (and unlimited) development of interconnected applications in the home and beyond that have yet to fully crystallize.
After the session, SSN "20 under 40" recipients were honored at the awards ceremony. Below is a list of those honored at TechSec:
-Jesse Rivest, territory manager, Affiliated Monitoring
-Joe Parisi, senior account executive, Rapid Response Monitoring
-Navin Goel, operations manager, Go Safer Security
-Stephanie Wagner, licensing and compliance manager; field operations training and support
-Ronda Meyer, VP/controller, Per Mar Security
-Robert Gaulden, VP of sales and marketing, Kratos
-Johnny Cunningham, IT director, ADS Security
-Michael Campbell, VP of global sales operations, Diebold
Less than a week remains until TechSec Solutions kicks off in the comparatively balmy climes of Delray Beach, Fla. The location itself will be a welcome respite for those of us coping with the deep freeze to the north, but it's the quality of the speakers and panelists that stand to be the biggest draw.
I wanted to use this space to draw attention to a pair of Next Gen Security Series panels slated for the opening day, one of which I'll be moderating. For the panel, titled "Security integrators' perspective: The changing landscape of security integration," I'll be asking four members of SSN's latest "20 under 40" class a range of questions focused on new and emerging technologies, all with an eye toward identifying what implications such developments have for the industry as a whole.
The panelists for my session will be Johnny Cunningham, director of information technology at ADS Security; Robert Gaulden, VP of sales & marketing at Kratos; Jesse Rivest, territory manager at Affiliated Monitoring; and Joe Parisi, senior account executive at Rapid Response Monitoring. Considering the range of professional responsibilities, the panel provides a pretty strong snapshot of the industry.
The other Next Gen panel will include "20 under 40" winners from SSN's sister publication, Security Director News, and that session will be moderated by SDN editor Amy Canfield.
From Delray Beach I'll be following up with more coverage on the Next Gen panels, while covering several other events in the TechSec program. I'm eager to meet some new folks down at the conference, and eager to hear what those at the vanguard think of the industry's direction.
Maybe it's because Aaron Hernandez was so used to being in front of TV cameras as an NFL star that he came to ignore their existence. Recent stories about the former New England Patriots tight end suggest that he was pretty clueless about how surveillance cameras are virtually everywhere we go nowadays—and are making a record of what we do.
Now it appears that surveillance video links him to not only the murder of a good friend last year, but to a 2012 Boston drive-by shooting in which two men died and a third was wounded.
I've blogged here previously about news reports saying that security cameras in Hernandez' Massachusetts home recorded him with a gun both hours before—and minutes after—his friend Odin Lloyd was shot to death last summer.
Hernandez has been charged with murder in the killing of Lloyd, a 27-year-old Boston semi-professional football player whom Hernandez was angry with. Texts from Lloyd's phone indicate he was with Hernandez the night before his body, riddled with bullets, was found June 17 in an industrial park about a mile from Hernandez's home, news reports say. The Patriots released Hernandez after he was arrested shortly after the shooting, and he remains in jail.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to the 2013 murder charge, but authorities also have been looking into his potential involvement in the 2012 shootings one year earlier.
Fox News reported recently that a newly released search warrant says that Hernandez may have pulled the trigger in the Boston drive-by shootings.
Fox reported that a detective wrote: "There is also probable cause to believe that Aaron Hernandez was operating the suspect vehicle used in the shooting homicides of Daniel Abreu and Safiro Furtado, and may have been the shooter."
Witnesses told police at the time of the Boston shooting that a silver or gray Toyota 4Runner or Nissan Pathfinder with Rhode Island plates had opened fire on the vehicle that Abreu and Furtado were in that night, Fox said. But police had little to go on until security cameras helped them, according to Fox.
Here's some of what the Fox report had to say:
The first inkling that Hernandez could have been involved in the 2012 killings came after Lloyd's death. A detective recalled recognizing Hernandez on surveillance footage from a nightclub the victims had visited shortly before they were shot on a highway overpass."
… Then came Lloyd's killing … and the possible connection to Hernandez.
Detectives went back to the video surveillance from the club Abreu and Furtado had been visiting and from other cameras in the area.
They located footage of Hernandez parking in a garage down the street from the club at 12:04 a.m. on July 16, 2012, according to the warrant. He was driving a silver 2006 Toyota 4Runner with Rhode Island license plates. The footage showed Hernandez and a man later identified as Bradley outside Cure Lounge a short time later. The two of them entered the club just after Abreu, Furtado and their three friends.
And although Hernandez and Bradley left nearly an hour before Abreu and Furtado, surveillance cameras captured a vehicle believed to be the 4Runner slowly circling the block as the two men and their friends walked to a parking garage to get their car.
The shootings of Abreu, Furtado and the other man were reported less than 15 minutes later several blocks from the club.

So, I was getting an update from Rob Hile, who is the new director of strategic accounts for SureView Systems, about his plans to drive business for the software provider. His plan is an interesting new take on the sometimes touchy topic of PSIM.
SureView, which has been around for 14 years, is fairly well known for its Immix software platform in the central station world, but Hile's goal is to expand Immix's horizons way beyond the central station world.
In the past two or three years the company "made a few tweaks" and the result is a "mid-market, situational awareness/PSIM solution ... that's cost effective, lighter, faster and cheaper [than other PSIM solutions]," he said. "It's cloud-based and it's dot.net, so it's super easy to install and you don't need to be a rocket scientist to operate it."
While high-end PSIM solutions allow an operator to "fly through buildings using a joy stick ... do you really want your guards in your SOC who are making $8 to $9 an hour flying through your building looking at graphics?" he asked. "No," he told me, answering his own question. What you want is a system that will allow the operator to handle an emergency quickly and efficiently and with the software, backed up by standard operating procedures, he said.
Well, in some applications, ports for example, you might want a joy stick-enabled PSIM and other bells and whistles, but Hile is betting that the majority of applications that could use this solution fall into the middle-market category. Those include "cities and municipalities, higher education, Fortune 500 companies with multiple locations across the country that are doing acquisitions, pharmaceutical companies, retail, banking."
"The central station software has integrations built to 450 devices and about 65 manufacturers. We've got those done and the list is growing. ... and the licensing model is that you buy it and you can put in on as many servers and workstations as you want and we're not going to gouge you for that."
As he develops SureView's channel strategy, Hile will be working with large and mid-sized integrators--several of whom he's worked with or competed with previously. As an example, he'll be working with one large integrator's sales force (which numbers in the hundreds) educating them about SureView and helping them close deals when the time comes.
That sales force will be a "force multiplier" for SureView, Hile said. "If you're looking for a joy stick to fly through buildings, this is not the solution, but if you really want a user-friendly, cost effective solution to solve your challenge. I've got it. ... This is going to change the way PSIM makers go to market," he said.
Time will tell of course, but companies like SureView, that seek to change the PSIM model certainly bear watching.
We wrote this fall about a new smoke/CO detector so smart it can talk to home residents and tell them if there's a fire or dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. Now Google likes that detector—called Nest Protect—and other products made by California-based Nest Labs so much that it is buying the smoke alarm company for $3.2 billion.
The deal, announced this week, is Google's second largest acquisition so far, after its 2012 purchase of Motorola, a mobile phone maker, according to news reports.
The Wall Street Journal reported this week that "Nest has the lion's share of the nascent market for 'smart' thermostats and recently began selling smart smoke detectors."
The WSJ also says, "Analysts and executives see Nest as a beachhead for Google to expand its place in the home." Nest will retain its brand, according to news sources. It will be interesting to see what it and Google will do in the home automation space with Google's big bucks behind the effort.
Here's more of what Nest had to say about its new detector back in the fall when it was released:
The Nest Protect detector speaks and gives users a vocal "heads up," telling them what it detects before emitting an alarm. It can be silenced with the wave of a hand and will send messages to integrated mobile devices to ask for new batteries.
"We've all experienced the smoke alarm going off while we're cooking or searched for the source of that incessant low-battery chirp in the middle of the night," said Tony Fadell, founder and CEO of Nest. Fadell, a former Apple executive, said those annoyances lead people to trust their alarms less, or turn them off to stop the noise.
The company says studies have shown children sleep through beeps, but wake up to the sound of voices, so Nest Protect features a female voice alarm to help wake sleeping children.
Nest Protect senses heat, carbon monoxide and smoke levels as they rise to offer early warnings. The device shows its sensors and batteries are working with a green glow when lights are turned off. Multiple devices in a single home connect, sending alarms throughout the house when problems are detected.

Ken Lochiatto is the new COO and president of Convergint Technologies, the Illinois-based systems integrator announced today. Lochiatto comes to Convergint from WMS Industries, an Illinois-based electronic gaming and amusement company, where he was EVP and COO, and for the past 18 months was been president of WMS Gaming, a main subsidiary of WMS Industries. While Locchiatto's background is not security-specific, he's certainly familiar with the casino vertical. WMS Gaming is a "$700 million supplier to the global gaming business."
I had a quick chat with Convergint CEO Dan Moceri who said that Locchiato fills an open position created when Jim Botwell stepped down for medical reasons.
At WMS, Lochiatto is credited with driving improvements "in the company's processes to be more customer-centric, while nearly doubling WMS' revenues, operating margins and competitive positioning." Before joining WMS, he was with GE for 22 years. Most recently he served as Business Leader—Advanced Communications Systems, "a system integrator for the transit industry within the GE Transportation segment." Lochiatto has a BA in mechanical engineering from Rensselaeer Polytechnic Institute and an MA in industrial administration, from Carnegie Mellon University.
"Ken has a strong engineering background, [which is important] since we're a highly technical company, but the key reason we hired him is his excellent leadership skills," Moceri said. "He'll support and grow our culture, which he fits very well."
With Locciatto looking after Convergint in North America, Moceri will be able to "focus on strategy and acquisitions and continuing to build out a world wide or a global platform."
In August, Convergint brought on a new capital partner [KRG]. "The result is that we have the opportunity to add an acquisition strategy to supplement our organic growth … which has been 21 percent per year organically," Moceri said.
After the recent acquisitions of ICD, a company Moceri describes as the "Convergint of China," and FSC in Canada, "the next thing we're going to do is go to Europe."
Yes. Moceri is looking now for "the Convergint of Europe" to acquire and he says he's got some target companies.
The idea, he says is to "do all the things we do for our customers—Boeing, Capital One, Amazon, Dell—in their facilities all over the world. What we do in North America … we will be doing around the world," he said.
2014 is looking to be a busy year for Convergint, Moceri said.
Several organizations recently joined PPVAR's growing membership roster, but two of the new additions are particularly striking. Digital Life, a home management platform from AT&T, is now on board, according to Keith Jentoft, an industry liaison for PPVAR. This comes about seven months after Digital Life earned CSAA Five Diamond certification.
Investment bank Imperial Capital also joined the organization. This is doubtless an interesting development as well, with Imperial being the organization's first member from the private investment side. In a certain sense, an investment bank showing interest in video verified monitoring seems unsurprising, given signs of the technology's more mainstream direction, plus the technology's ability to drive higher average revenue returns per customer. Additionally, when a private investment bank allies itself with a best-practices organization, it suggests their interest in the value proposition runs fairly deep.
The group also added The Illinois Alarm Association and the Michigan Association of Police Chiefs as members—both organizations the likes of which we've become more accustomed to seeing engage with PPVAR, an organization focused on pooling knowledge from members in both public and private sectors.
As PPVAR forges ahead toward its goal of written standards for video verification, I'll be keen to see what kind of bearings its new members have on the organization's direction. Will the addition of Digital Life compel other cablecos and telecoms to join? And with respect to Imperial Capital, I'm curious to see what kind of role they play in promoting PPVAR's cause. Will their membership generate further interest in video verification from other private investment groups?
The organization is convening in the coming days, Jentoft said. After they do, I hope to get a clearer picture of where the organization is at this stage of the process.
ADT announced at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week that it is partnering with Ford Motor Company in 2014 to enable drivers to do such things as open garage doors or control their thermostats from a car.
The company also is partnering with Internet security provider McAfee this year to offer customers a plan that not only protects their homes but their digital devices and data. Additionally, ADT is partnering with health solutions provider Ideal Life to support its ADT Health platform "with real-time health management services."
ADT also announced it has added enhancements to ADT Pulse—such as remote garage door control.
The announcements all have one thing in common: expanding ADT's security reach beyond the customer's home.
"As a pioneer in the home security and automation space, ADT is focused on evolving the security industry by developing new ways for consumers to integrate our products seamlessly into their everyday lives," said Arthur Orduña, senior vice president and chief innovation officer for ADT, in a prepared statement. ADT, which became an independent company in the fall of 2012 after splitting from Tyco International, had a booth this week at the CES show for the second year in a row.
Here's more from ADT on the new PULSE enhancements, which will be available this spring:
ADT PulseVoice App: ADT Pulse Voice app offers the hands-free convenience of using voice commands to control nearly all areas of the home in the Pulse ecosystem, including lights, thermostats, door locks, small appliances and security systems. ADT Pulse Voice also responds to user's vocal commands and provides auditory feedback on system status and confirmation of actions.ADT Pulse Wireless Platform: The ADT Pulse Wireless Platform features an innovative and sleek design with an intuitive, touch-friendly user interface. The wireless control panel securely and safely manages all ADT Pulse controlled devices such as lights, thermostats, locks, and small appliances. Created with the user in mind, the ADT Pulse Wireless Platform is designed to deliver a non-invasive and seamless installation experience for homeowners, reducing installation time by half and avoiding any in-wall wiring.ADT Pulse Remote Garage Door Control: To help ensure security and control at all access points of the home, ADT Pulse will feature remote garage door controls by incorporating leading technology developed by Linear LLC. This new feature will enable users to secure and control their garage door via the ADT Pulse smartphone app from around the corner or around the world.Canopy App: Building on the trusted expertise of ADT home security services, the Canopy mobile application for iOS and Android provides users added personal protection and networking while on the go. Canopy enables users to identify the whereabouts of and communicate with friends and family members in a designated virtual circle. Additionally, the integrated ADT Chaperone feature provides a direct line to trusted ADT monitoring centers anytime and anywhere. ADT Chaperone is a subscription-based feature within the Canopy app that provides added protection and peace of mind in situations such as entering a dark parking garage or walking alone across campus at night.
Alarm.com's new Wellness solution, unveiled recently at CES, may perform some of the same functions as a traditional PERS unit, but the solution has the unmistakable stamp of an Alarm.com offering.
The solution combines mobile notifications and sensors with the company's home automation platform, a medley of functionalities that make it a unique contribution to the independent living product realm, which is fast becoming a widespread RMR-generating fixture in the industry.
That's not to say Wellness doesn't feature some of the typical trappings of more traditional PERS technology. The solution includes panic buttons, for instance. But how the offering differs from traditional PERS units in some ways parallels how Alarm.com initially distinguished itself as a company in the residential security space—through its automation functions. Through a network of sensors, the solution can automatically detect unusual information and send mobile notifications to caregivers.
Since Wellness is fully integrated with the company's home automation, energy management and security services, the offering essentially slots in as another component of the broader ecosystem of a connected home. Another neat wrinkle to the offering, and one that maybe shouldn't be surprising given the overarching design of the solution, is that it enables caregivers to adjust household devices like thermostats remotely.
It's hard to think of a product perfectly analogous to this elsewhere in the industry, though that doesn't mean there's not one, or at least something similar in scope and breadth. In the coming days, once CES is in the rearview mirror, I plan to speak to Alison Slavin, VP of product management at Alarm.com, to find out more about how this product puts a new spin on the PERS space, as well as what the future holds for the company in that market.
Will Securadyne be the next Convergint?
That's a possibility, according to Bill Bozeman, CEO of PSA Security. Bozeman has experience building a systems integration firm and knows both of the players in the Securadyne/Intelligent Access Systems deal that was announced yesterday.
In case you missed it, Securadyne, a start-up integrator founded by Carey Boethel and Pamlico Capital in early 2012, yesterday announced that it has acquired Ron Oetjen's company, Intelligent Access Systems, one of the most successful and fastest growing regional integrators in the country. Here's the a link to the story.
I talked to Bozeman today about the deal. He offered his opinion of the union and also discussed the stages of growth for integration companies—and the new challenges that come along with those different stages.
"I know both guys [Carey and Ron] well very well. They're both PSA Security equity partners and owners. The consolidation, from our perspective, appears to be a good solid one. Carey is building a hell of a company with Securadyne; it looks to be the next Convergint, [and] congratulations to him [for that]," Bozeman said. Convergint is not a member of the PSA Security flock, but Bozeman praised [Convergint Technologies' CEO Dan Moceri] for building a very solid company.
Bozeman identified three growth-stage milestones for integration companies and the specific challenges that arise when companies grow past a certain stage. Those milestones occur when a company reaches: A.) $3 to $5 million in revenue; B.) $10 - $15 million in revenue, and C.) $50 million in revenue.
To get to $3 to $5 million in revenues you need to be a strong, entrepreneurial company, but to become a larger company, "You can no longer do everything yourself. You have to have a management team to help you with sales, technical and finance decisions," he said. "This is a stage that a lot of companies can't or don't want to get past," he said. The reason? They may be happy making a nice living and being the entrepreneur in charge, Bozeman said.
The next stage of growth hits when a company is doing $10 to $15 million in revenue. "They normally have more than one office and they need infrastructure. To get to the next level you need to hire well paid management people, and that can put a strain on profits of a company unless they're well financed, which is unusual for most integration companies, or if they have a solid RMR model," Bozeman explained. He also noted that Ron Oetjen had already successfully moved IAS past this stage.
The third stage of growth is at around $50 million. "That's when you really start to need a CEO and a senior management team made up of VPs that are experienced and are well paid," Bozeman said.
"Carey has already been president of Netversant and Siemens. He's the ideal guy [to shepherd this company along] because he already knows what it's like to run a company that's $70 to $100 million or $200 million and beyond [in revenues]," Bozeman said.
"Carey's a polished, senior level business guy who's experienced on the large corporate side as well as on the entrepreneurial side. … And with Ron he's got a super field general [who brings with him] a strong middle-management team. Put that with Carey's existing team and you have a nice equation for further success."
Bozeman said it's very important that Securadyne has a financial partner that knows the security business. "That's an advantage," he said. Pamlico Capital is a $2 billion Charlotte, N.C.-based middle-market private equity group. Pamlico was an investor in Sonitrol, but exited when that company was sold to Stanley Works in 2008.Not all capital partners understand the security integration business, Bozeman noted.
Of course, Bozeman said, growing a national integration company is not an easy thing to do. "The proof will be in the pudding."

Standards at Adobe: Alignment of Adobe-Approved Trust List (AATL) and EU Trust List (EUTL)
Within Europe and indeed elsewhere, digital signature technology is a valuable tool for conducting secure transactions via electronic documents. For years now, Adobe has invested in making such technology readily available to all citizens through the free Adobe Reader and Acrobat. This includes working with the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) to develop the technical specification for PDF Advanced Electronic Signature (PAdES) – that was incorporated into Adobe Reader and Acrobat in 2009 – and developing the Adobe-Approved Trust List (AATL). The AATL that is also part of the hundreds of millions of instances of Adobe Reader and Acrobat out there today helps ensure qualified certificates issued by Certification Service Providers can validate digital signatures without having to always manually import and manage certificates (although that option is still possible).
The Standards team at Adobe see the next logical step of this technology to be the integration of the EU Trust List into Adobe Acrobat and Reader software. To help explain this to our customers and followers, and what ETSI's June 19 announcement of Trusted Lists means, check out this article written by Adobe's Steve Gottwals, Group Product Manager and John Jolliffe, Senior Manager for European Government Affairs.
As always, if you have any comments or questions, please let us know.

Hard-Wired Real-Time GPS Vehicle Tracker; for long term tracking with one (1) second updates
The new GPS Mini Wired Tracker is ideal for fixed long term tracking and best suited towards vehicles or other valuable assets where power to the tracker is attained by hard-wiring to the vehicles main battery. Once hard-wired, the tracker will provide fantastic real-time updates every second when moving thus providing
the perfect solution to combat anti-theft, recovery, and general tracking under harsh conditions.
The GPS mini wired tracker offers the same tracking capabilities as our ReX8 and ReX9 trackers - but with a faster acquisition and instant updates every single second! Simply connect the tracker to your existing 12 volt
power supply and you are ready to secure your valuable asset and monitor user activity in real-time.
The GPS wired tracker is IP66 compliant for a sealed enclosure against dusty conditions, snow and rain which also makes it best suited for operational use where alternative rapid deployment trackers may not suffice.
Unlimited tracking
Unlike magnetic vehicle trackers, hard-wired trackers perform best with a managed SIM card. Included with the first year of your purchase is UNLIMITED tracking throughout Mainland UK. After the
initial 12 months, a renewable fee of £80 + VAT is applicable - that works out less than £7.00 per month!
Unlimited tracking will keep the SIM card inside the tracker 'always active' PLUS the tracking performance will be slightly more responsive as unlimited SIM cards are placed on a private network as opposed to a P-A-Y-G network.
Secure online console
Each wired tracker is provided with a secure console login to your purchase. Only YOU can access the login console. You may make any changes within your tracking console and view street level accurate tracking as the ReX8 moves around the country.
The console offers amazing additional tracking features including Geo-fencing so you get a message when the ReX8 moves in or out of a specified area anywhere in the country - from a single street to a large city, you will know if it enters or leaves it.
Receive easy-to-read start to end reports detailing each street by street turn and full analysis of each journey. Play-back journey routes so you can visually see each turn by turn.
You can even print off and email tracking data for evidential purposes.
Login to the tracking console from any computer / mobile phone web browser!
- Type
into your computer web browser (no need to type the www. part)
- Type
into your mobile phone web browser (no need to type the www. part)
- Type in your secure User ID & Password
This is a great solution for customers who prefer a fixed / hard-wired tracking unit for long-term security, 'always active' tracking for employee mileage, or simply as an aid to lowering insurance premiums.

How big is the tracker?
It will fit in the palm of your hand although once fitted inside your vehicle it will remain out of sight.
How accurate is the tracking?
With a decent GPS signal/s the live movements will show with pinpoint accuracy - you will be able to see the trackers real-time street level movements live every second.

After year one (1), a fee of £80 plus VAT will be applicable for continued use of the tracking console login. This fee helps contribute towards security and extensive server use, ongoing maintenance and free upgrades. A fee of £80 plus VAT will also be applicable for unlimited tracking use. A total amount of £160 will be renewable.
How long does the battery last?
The tracker is wired to the vehicle's battery (by the auto electrician) therefore, it always receives constant power.

Yes. You have the option to input your mobile number and / or email address in your secure login area so when the vehicle moves off, you will receive an alert.
I only want to know when the car goes into an area I am concerned?
You can set an 'invisible fence' commonly referred to as a Geo-Fence from within your console login. When the vehicle moves into, or out of that pre-defined area - a text message or email (or both) will automatically be sent to you.
Do I have to pay for the text messages?
Each tracker is assigned 100 texts for FREE. Emails are sent FREE and are unlimited.

9. Spinning (Arwen, Galadriel)
On the distaff the knot of storm-grey fibers thinned as on the spindle the skein of silky thread fattened.
The color of his eyes.
The slow rhythm of her hands and fingers, forming the fine strands, filled her days.
Too many days.
The change had crept up on her.
Too many years.
But not even a quarter of a yéni had in truth passed.
His heartbeat hovered at the horizon of her thought; she knew that the treacheries of mortality had not claimed him.
But yet he does not come. What changes have the years wrought? Has another won his love?
The leaves had gilded, fallen, bloomed again, and yet again. Still he did not come.
Is this how it will be? she wondered. Will that other part of my Elven blood count the days, the months, the year? Will I too change like the leaves in the seasons?
Impossibly long ago, when they had met under the trees in Rivendell, she had refused him. He had sworn he would seek her again, would again ask for her love. Now she dreamed of him at night. Her laughter fell silent.
Day after day, at the loom in her grandmother's workroom, she wove the thread she had spun, passing the shuttle back and forth, her feet pressing the peddles to shift the warp. The silver-grey cloth lengthened. Again the leaves turned gold, fell, bloomed. He had not come.
A movement at the edge of her sight distracted her as the warden entered, seeking the Lady. "A Man is asking admittance to the Wood, my lady. He says he is lord of the Dúnedain, and he bears your brother's ring."
"He is a friend, warden. Bring him to me."
Her blood surging, Arwen knew that nothing would ever again be the same.

Pet Society Full Review
By Ange Perdu
Pet Society is a social virtual pet simulation game where players enter a world filled with cuddly creatures. Create your own virtual pet. Customize their look with different fur patterns, eyes, mouths, ears, face shapes, and colors. Each player starts out with a small home that they can later expand as they level up. Purchase appliances and furniture to spruce up the ole' homestead. Similar to Facebook games like PetVille and Happy Pets players earn coins for shopping by taking care of their pet. Pet Society goes beyond the traditional rituals of washing, feeding, and visiting neighbors to incorporate a variety of special features. Players can cook meals and sell them. Start a garden. Go fishing in the local pond or dig for treasure. The mini-games and unique virtual pet system allows players to care for multiple pets while playing with friends.
Life in Pet Society, the Gameplay
In Pet Society it's all about being active. Players are in charge of caring for their pet and keeping them happy. Like most virtual pet games feeding, washing, and play is essential. Buy sandwiches, snacks, fruit, or veggies to feed your pal by clicking and dropping the item in front of them. Food can also be grown in the garden. When pets are filthy flies swarm. Simply drag a bar of soap back and forth over them until clean. The two basic games players can indulge in with their furry pal are Ball and Frisbee. The main objective of playing ball is to go as long as possible passing the ball without dropping it. The speed of the ball quickens as time passes. Trophies are rewarded for high scores. Frisbee is played the same way but it's slightly more challenging due to the faster pace.
Pet Society also has a cooking feature. Armed with a toaster oven and a cookbook players start out as novices and work their way up to Pet Society's Next Top Chef by cooking various meals. The recipe selection isn't that great and cooking times are too long. Make simple to odd dishes like vegetable soup, pineapple fried rice, bone soup, mega pancakes, Snowman Sundae, steak, or a giant hotdog. Most of the items take 8 to 18 hours to cook. Leveling up unlocks new recipes. All meals can be sold for profit or eaten. Similar to PetVille players visit neighbors. Interaction is limited to kisses, hugs, jokes, dancing, or a quick fight to earn coins. There is also a Café where players can socialize and grab an Espresso to go. Each day users are allowed to hang out at the local Café and make new friends. Random players will appear that are not neighbors. Clicking on them will transport you to their house for a visit. An icon lets users to mingle, view their profile, and become neighbors. Although it's a nice feature players are restricted to only nine social interactions at the Café per day.
Hurdle O' Games
The diverse array of games in Pet Society is impressive. Players can race, fish, and go treasure hunting in Ancient Egypt. In the Stadium pets compete against neighbors in an Olympics style hurdle race. The hard to jump hurdles and slippery banana peels makes it challenging. Winners earn coins. Options allow users to perform a practice run, race, bet on other friends' races, and compete in a Pro Race. Special Playfish Cash shorts are required to participate in Pro Races limiting player access. Clicking on the local fishing pond lets users fish. Clicking the pet and holding down the mouse reels in the catch. The pond has more than bug eyed flounders and ghost knife fish in the water. Useless junk like broken pots are floating in the pond too. This increases the odds of catching trash instead of fish. If you're lucky enough to catch some fish they can be displayed in an aquarium at home or sold. Clicking on a treasure map will prompt a treasure hunting game. Search in the town forest, enchanted forest, or Ancient Egypt for collectibles and rare furniture. Players have to use their five digs strategically or pay for extra turns.
Meet the Petlings
Pets can have their own virtual pet in the form of Petlings. There are different types of Petlings available. Buy a puppy, kitten, coyote, or lion. Feed them their favorite food to grow. These lovable creatures enjoy an exotic diet consisting of sushi, steak, strawberry milk, and bones. Players have to feed and care for them until they reach adulthood. Each player is allowed to own up to ten Petlings of their choice. Only one can be raised at a time. Petlings definitely enhance the virtual pet experience. They are very playful simulating a real puppy or kitten. Watch them run around, jump off of shelves, conduct flips, and take naps. Unfortunately the customization for these cute critters is restricted. Players who want a pink, purple, blue, or more colorful Petling have to use real money to buy Playfish Cash to get special biscuits that change their color.
Shopping in Pet Town
Players can explore the virtual world in Pet Society. Browse the Market, Boutique, Furniture, Clothing, or Grocery Stores for various items. Most items can be purchased with gold coins making it easy to customize your pet's environment. There's a large assortment of detailed items available for purchase like paintings, sofas, rugs, pillows, beds, chairs, clocks, radios, TVs, stuffed animals, patterned wallpaper, carpet, tiled floors, curtains, staircases, bathtubs, ceiling fans, chandeliers, cabinets, kitchenette sets, counters, dishes, stainless steel cooking utensils, glass panel doors, and windows with scenery. Change the appearance of your virtual pet with costumes and wigs as well. Dress them up as a pirate, princess, or in everyday attire. There is no shortage of cute little outfits to buy. Mystery boxes with a surprise items inside are also available for the shopper who likes to live life on the edge. The special items that require Playfish Cash give players an extra advantage in customization and gameplay possibilities. This makes it difficult for players who do not wish to spend real money to perform certain actions or changes in the game.
Final Verdict: Great
Pet Society is a great game for virtual pet lovers. Players can customize their own pet, raise Petlings, decorate their humble abode, and play a variety of mini-games. This game surpasses other virtual pet based simulations like PetVille or Happy Pets by incorporating creative features like cooking, gardening, fishing, racing, treasure hunting, and endless shopping. Own multiple virtual pets ranging from kittens to coyotes and design a cool environment for them to thrive in. Pet Society is a fun pet simulation game that is slightly better than the rest.

Bus Chick, Transit Authority
Carla Saulter has been living without a car—and using public transit as her primary form of transportation—since March of 2003. Though she gave up driving because of concerns about the detrimental effects of car culture (pollution, traffic, sprawl), the decision has profoundly and positively changed her life. Some of these positive changes include: enforced exercise, time to read, reduced expenses, and contact with her community on a level that would never have been possible in the isolated bubble of a single-occupancy vehicle.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I just got my save the dates in the mail, and they are so gorgeous! I am impressed with the quality of it all. I got them in the pink and black color, with the shimmer paper and shimmer white envelopes, and i love how they came out. I also asked if i could have my wedding website added to the back of the card, which was done and it looks lovely. I am very pleased, and look forward to ordering my invitations!"
"I really loved the design of this card; it was simple, yet elegant and I liked being able to personalize with my wedding color - blush. I chose blush on the back as well; the designer even added my wedding website to the back! I chose the basic, standard paper and it is a nice matte finish that does not feel cheap at all. Quality of the photo could have been a little better, but I love the look of the card so much that it doesn't even seem to matter! Also, I recommend the rounded edges - just a little more classically elegant than the cut shown in the display photo."

Waiting months for results is not only irritating, it's downright depressing. That's why Lipovox is formulated to help you lose weight faster than with just diet and exercise.
Getting results faster will help you look and feel better.Don't just take our word for it. There are countless customers who are thrilled with their life-changing results. So why do Lipovox users get such great results when other diet pills leave their customers disappointed and deceived?
When we formulated Lipovox, we agreed to use the highest quality, most effective ingredients. Most importantly, we made Lipovox extremely safe. In addition to weight loss ingredients, Lipovox contains SuperFoods and Anti-oxidants support general health.
Green Tea
Green tea has been used as medicine in China and India for nearly 5,000 years. Research shows that Green Tea boosts your metabolism and increases fat oxidation (break down of fat).
Cayenne Pepper
Cayenne peppers are a member of the plant genus "capsicum" (cap-sih-kum), a term that comes from the Greek word kapto, which means "to bite". All peppers contain compounds called capsaicinoids. Cayenne is also great for supercharging your metabolic rate helping you reduce body fat.
Alpha Lipoic Acid
ALA is a potent anti-oxidant and anti inflammatory found in the mitochondria. ALA increases your ability to metabolize food into energy. Alpha lipoic acid also neutralizes potentially harmful chemicals called free radicals.
DMAE contains powerful anti-inflammatory properties. DMAE helps the production of neurotransmitters, which may help cognitive function, increase muscle tone and firm skin. It also enhances the effects of other antioxidants in Lipovox.
Although we believe there is science supporting the beneficial nutritional effects of the individual ingredients of Lipovox, you should know that no randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trials have been conducted on the efficacy of the particular combinations and dosages of those ingredients as found in Lipovox.
Testimonials should be considered anecdotal, consumers may not experience the same results as set forth in these testimonials.
"I was amazed when I tried Lipovox, I usally do not believe in Diet pills but I lost every day 1 lbs. Great product. Best part is, that it is not chemical. i do not get the heart raising or light headed feeling. Love the product."
- Nadja Coln
"I didn't change my eating habits, nor did I exercise... it made my skin look great, even co-workers kept telling how great I looked, gives a more youthful look."
- Loretta Bustillos
"If you are looking for a miracle weightloss pill without the work then this product is NOT for you... i have also found that it does surpresses the appatite just enough to give me controll, but to loose weight you still have to exercise and eat in moderation. If you are looking for the magic pill to pop and do nothing else to loose weight, good luck it does not exist...."
- Kat Joyce
"With proper eating habits and exercise you can lose weight with this product. I started an exercise program February 1 and after 2 months did not see any results. I started counting calories and did not see any results. I started taking Lipovox and lost 11 pounds in one month. It really does work. "
Does it Really Work?
You will never hear us making any bogus claims about this product. All we can do is tell you our personal results. And you can also read customer feedback to see how customers like you feel about it. Some Don't like it. More than 98% do. The other 1.5-2% get their 90 day money back guarantee.
What's the recommended dose?
We recommend taking one capsule, twice daily.
Do I have to exercise to see results?
Lipovox was designed to be taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. That is the best way to lose weight. Some users lose weight without changing their diets or exercising, but exercise and healthy eating are recommended for optimal results.
