Technology Guru, Linux, PHP, Mysql, C, TCP/IP
Romania - Last active: 11/14/2014 - Tests: 7 - Portfolio: 1
I have the *top score* on the PHP5 test and I'm in the top 10% on other significant technology tests. I work with technology systems, both large an small, including but not limited to Linux servers (a multitude of distributions), a variety of PHP content management systems, various network setups of most of the popular servers/daemons from mail to files and SQL databases. My particular range of experience allows me to create job specific, performance tuned and profit generating setups for my clients. In the past years I have worked mostly on sql-based backends, from large web crawlers, a bit of text analysis, managing worker threads, seo-related software, integration with content management systems and payment gateways, most of it done with LAMP and LAMP-like setups. Professionally I have led small teams of 2-3 people for programming tasks. Linux distributions that I have experience with: -Debian / Ubuntu and derivatives -Gentoo -RedHat / CentOS and derivatives -Puppy linux and a variety of live low memory distributions for embedded purposes Programming languages: -C (I started with this around 15 years ago, also Pascal if anyone ever uses that anymore). I have not written C code in a while since I've focused on server/web based technologies. -PHP - my language of choice for most things web-side -Python - have used it a bit for linux Desktop apps -Bash for some scripting -a bit of knowledge about all the scripting/configuration languages that you would typically find on a server, from lua to zsh and whatnot -good familiarity with regular expressions and other parsers -extensively used the cURL library I understand OOP, MVC and what development processes are, have used versioning systems including CVS, SVN, GIT, I can adapt to most team workflows regarding this. Databases: -most of what I've used is in the Mysql realm, including advanced server configurations for high loads/high availability, replications, filesystem tunings, stored procedures, caching, for a while mysql design and tuning books were always on top of my desk -have also used sqlite for less intensive tasks and postgresql Regarding frontends, I have read, written, corrected and improved: -HTML of all kinds, versions either plain or within theme engines -JavaScript either plain or with jquery -CSS -GTK 2 and 3 -the old windows graphical api (the C win32 one), although I haven't touched this in years I don't consider myself a 'frontend guy' but I can and will write great, functional, usability oriented ones if need be, but I don't do logo / advanced graphics design (as seen by photoshop gurus), there should be a law against me actually drawing anything on a screen from scratch (however user interfaces and other people's images are no problem). I believe my English is excellent and so are my communication skills - on the projects I choose to work on. I often get asked things like: "-But do you know version x.y.z of some content management system? It's the latest and greatest, just came out and we need someone with 5 years experience in it!" Here's my answer to those kinds of questions: NO I DO NOT KNOW IT! I probably am not familiar with plugin X for Awesome Shopping Cart version 9123 beta using webRTC and the alpha jquery version. BUT I most certainly will be able to write great code for it and integrate it into anything if it's humanly possible. A great programmer is the one who knows, understands the inner workings of software, the 'lower level' functions and has a willingness and a process for learning, adapting, reading and using documentation, reading and understanding the code and extrapolating from previous work. If you need a programmer that has specific experience on one and only one system and disregards everything else, than I am not that guy, nor would I ever wish to be. I understand marketing, both online and offline, I know how businesses work and therefore I value your time and money should you also value mine. If you decide to throw some work my way, here are a few things that I consider important. I believe that real-time communication tools (instant messaging, skype, phone, irc) are inferior to non-real-time tools (email for example) when it comes down to getting things done. We will most likely be in different time zones in different countries. I also have some strange work hours, I sometimes work very late (or very early). Email and messages on Odesk facilitate communication by removing the time constraint and allowing a generally more structured communication to take place. I answer all messages in a timely manner but I hate it when phones and windows popping up interrupt my workflow and thought process. I prefer all real time communication to be scheduled at least one day before - that's not to say that I'm never available for chat or interviews, I just have a strong preference for things that don't interrupt.

Senior Developer, PM
Russia - Last active: 3 days ago - Tests: 5 - Portfolio: 2
I have strong background in UNIX/Linux software development, Master's Degree in Computer Science. I worked on Enterprise high-load distributed hosting automation systems as a Team Leader (3.5 years in SWsoft, Inc., now called Parallels). For the last 6 years I'm running my own small software development business in Russia with primary focus on Python/Django apps. Not pure Web but often involving integration with hardware (Proximity Cards, Sensor Screens) or external systems like Payment Processing, SMS Gateways, GABRIEL (Airline Reservation System), etc. I can take an idea and turn it into a working business, through all the intermediate stages. Also I have experience of investing my own funds in my projects, so I feel the difference between "perfect code" in a month and "good enough" code that increases the revenue right now. Nevertheless, my code is very good: no copy-paste, always written with performance, flexibility and security in mind, etc. On oDesk I'm looking for (and actually find :) interesting projects with a sight on long-term fruitful cooperation. I'm also open to smaller activities (e.g., consulting) where my knowledge can be helpful.

To keep housewrap and roofing underlayment from blowing off, we install them with cap staples. Even though we own pneumatic cap staplers, we often use manual models because they require less setup and there's no need to bring out a compressor and hose.
Stinger CH38A Specs
Weight, loaded (by JLC): 3.2 pounds
Tool length: 13 3/8 inches
Cap diameter: 1 inch
Staple length: 3/8 inch
Capacity: 168 caps and staples
Price: $60
Fastener cost: $32 per pack (2,016 caps and staples)
National Nail Corp.
Our first manual cap stapler was the Stinger CH38, which was introduced in late 2007 (see Toolbox, 4/08). A second, more compact version of the tool became available a year later, and we've been using that model ever since. Like its predecessor, the Stinger CH38A takes 3/8-inch staples and 1-inch plastic caps that come 168 to a roll.
With the original Stinger — which is still sold — you have to squeeze a trigger after every blow to manually advance the caps. But the caps in the new model feed automatically, making it a lot easier to use. You can hammer away with the CH38A just as you would with a hammer tacker — though not quite as fast. It's not as fast as a pneumatic cap stapler, either — but I consider that a fair trade-off for not having to handle a hose.
My only complaint about the CH38A is that it's not as well-balanced as the original, probably because the magazine is placed off to the side.

Social protection in an unpredictable economy
How can societies provide some level of security for their workforce while adapting to economic change? Faced with new realities, the support mechanisms on which we have come to rely will have to adjust, say EU-funded researchers. They have identified approaches that can help policymakers to maintain an effective safety net in uncertain times.

Finding the link between language and perception
Language is at the heart of everyday communication. But we don't all understand language in the same way, with prior information, age and cognitive ability playing a key role. An EU-funded network is studying how people in different ability and age groups perceive language. Its projects are developing tools and training software that could help people with disorders like autism communicate better.

Less does more with smart irrigation
Farming consumes around 70% of the world's fresh water. Limiting irrigation to the actual water crops need - and no more - makes farming more sustainable and improves yields. An EU-funded project is developing a user-friendly precision irrigation decision support system for more accessible technology that saves water. A first interface will be available next year.

Clean and efficient CO2 capture
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology has the potential to help the EU significantly cut its greenhouse gas emissions. However, a lack of low-cost and energy-efficient capture technologies is hampering their take-up. EU-funded researchers have developed new CCS technologies to produce efficient and cost-effective electrical power from fossil fuels with near-zero emissions. One solution has been patented, while another is being prepared for market.

Catching waves for renewable energy production
The world's oceans are veritable power houses. If we could harness the forces of their waves and tides on a large scale, they could provide a considerable amount of sustainable electric power. An innovative offshore test facility developed with EU funding and already on the market is taking us one step closer to that goal.

A roadmap to help Africa's cities adapt to climate change
Many of Africa's cities lack the skills and resources to prepare for natural disasters, which scientists expect to become more frequent due to climate change. An EU-funded project has provided practical approaches vulnerable communities could use to plan ahead - and reduce the risk to lives and infrastructure.

Preserving cultural artefacts by preventing corrosion
An EU-funded research project has developed highly-sensitive detectors to monitor corrosive atmospheric pollutants in museums and archives. The detectors warn when preventative action is needed to protect Europe's cultural artefacts - and heritage - before they are damaged by corrosion. Commercial success has followed the project and funded follow-up research on new applications, from vehicle corrosion to the paper industry.

Getting a handle on pharmaceuticals in the environment
Roughly 3 000 pharmaceutical products are used in human healthcare. Since a patient's body does not fully metabolise some of them, they are excreted and can end up in the environment, where they can impact aquatic life, and potentially human beings. EU-funded researchers investigated how much concern is warranted about anticancer drugs and antibiotics.

Cleaning up the marine litter that pollutes our oceans
The sea is an important resource for us all. We rely on it for much of our diet. In many cases, our livelihoods depend on it. Robust marine ecosystems are vital both for a healthy planet and also for general human wellbeing.

Love the smell
goood but overated and didnt do as it said in a margerine
Bought to put away in gift box
I've reviewed this product before. It became my regular body wash the first time I tried it, and the fact that the complementary Body Butter is my ' best ever' is a bonus.
Exactly what I was looking for
Only just started using this product but my husband tells me that my skin looks better already, a lot of the red patches are fading and it feels more supple not tight as before.
pleasant smell
Very fast delivery
Rich lather and fragrance that complements that of the body butter. Together they make an everyday routine very enjoyable.

Illinois Senate primary: Lame and Lamer
GOP cap-and-tax 8'er Mark Kirk won the GOP primary in Illinois for the Senate seat formerly occupied by Barack Obama.
After pandering to enviro-nitwits and casting his vote in favor of the largest energy tax increase in American history based on shoddy science and Al Gore-led fear-morning, Rep. Kirk promised Illinois voters he wouldn't pander the same way if held higher office. He's also a squish on the Second Amendment and life issues, a supporter of the massive tobacco tax increases to pay for Obama's SCHIP expansion/Demcare Trojan Horse, and an expedient new critic of earmarks. John McCormack searches for something good to say about Kirk — it's thin gruel, but here it is.
So: Kirk is Lame.
His Democrat opponent Alexi Giannoulias is Lamer.
The Illinois treasurer and Obama crony declared victory tonight after his primary challenger David Hoffman conceded:
Illinois Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias declared victory tonight in the Democratic primary for President Barack Obama's former U.S. Senate seat….
…While Giannoulias tried to stress his stances on the economy and what he would do to bring more jobs to Illinois, Hoffman tried to run as a reformer and routinely raised questions about Giannoulias' experience and decision-making as senior loan officer at his family-owned Broadway Bank, as well as his handling as state treasurer of $150 million in losses with the Bright Start college savings program.
Hoffman reiterated questions about loans Broadway awarded to a convicted bookmaker and prostitution ring promoter, but the issue came to a head last week when the now-struggling bank, which is still run by one of Giannoulias' brothers, agreed to greater government oversight and was told it had to raise tens of millions of dollars.
Hoffman said Giannoulias had to better explain to voters what role he had in the bank's troubles. Jackson said Giannoulias should drop out of the race. Giannoulias said that only a small percentage of the bank's nonperforming loans were made while he was senior loan officer. On Bright Start, he argued his office noticed the losses, ordered corrections and reached a settlement that allowed investors to get back more than half the money they lost.
Giannoulias rose to statewide prominence in 2006 when he got Obama's endorsement for treasurer. The two have known each other for years and played basketball when Obama was a state senator. But Obama did not endorse Giannoulias in the primary. Indeed, Giannoulias even had to answer questions about why the White House spent last summer trying to get Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan to run. She declined.
The culture of ideological and political corruption runs deep in the veins of both parties in Illinois. We head to the general election with no illusions about the mediocre, uninspiring caliber of these two hack candidates. The measly voter turnout (contrast with the Massachusetts Miracle) tells all.
It's another hold-your-nose-and-vote race.
And the Chicago corruption beat goes on:
A top ethics aide to Mayor Richard Daley has resigned in the face of allegations that he and his boss used poor judgment in the handling of a student intern's sexual harassment complaint.
Mark E. Meaney resigned his $146,940-a-year position as first deputy in the mayor's Office of Compliance. He had joined Anthony Boswell to run the compliance office in 2007, which Daley created to promote a culture of good conduct among city workers.
"It was a privilege to have been part of something that had never been tried before, corporate-style compliance in municipal government," Meaney wrote Tuesday in an email to the Tribune. "Mayor Daley should be applauded in his efforts at true reform. Unfortunately, fear and blame seem to be winning over culture change."
Meaney's comments seemed to be aimed at the Inspector General's Office, which has been criticized in court filings for allegedly creating a "culture of fear" where workers are reluctant to report honest mistakes for fear they will be punished.
Meaney said he was returning to the private sector and had no regrets. His resignation was effective last Friday, said Jennifer Hoyle, spokeswoman for the city's Law Department.
Inspector General Joseph Ferguson last month found that Boswell and Meaney mishandled a 2008 sexual harassment complaint from an intern at the 911 Center. Ferguson's report concluded that the two men repeatedly disregarded city policies and showed favoritism toward the 911 supervisor by trying to find him another city job and a new intern.
Ferguson recommended to Daley that the mayor suspend the men for at least 30 days without pay. He declined to comment about Meaney's resignation.
Rolling my eyes…
WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele released the following statement today:
"After tremendous primary victories, I extend my sincere congratulations to all GOP primary winners tonight. Congressman Mark Kirk is poised to help lead the strongest Republican ticket that Illinois has seen in a generation. The Republican Party is in an excellent position to compete on the issues most important to the people of Illinois. Whether it's the senate seat once held by President Obama, or the governorship, or other seats across the state, voters are clearly tired of the arrogance and corruption in government and are ready to make the change they want. With its unemployment rate among the worst in the nation, Illinois can no longer afford the binge spending and failed leadership of entrenched Democrats. There is no doubt in my mind that many Republican candidates will prevail over their Democrat opponents this fall and provide the representation and leadership Illinoisans have asked for and deserve.
"Over the past year, independent voters in Virginia, New Jersey, and Massachusetts have made their voices heard by sending a clear message that they've had enough of the binge spending and government-growing agenda coming from Washington and it looks like Illinois is eager to follow their lead."

Pearland ISD uses virtual desktop infrastructure to refresh classroom IT and implement BYOD
Date : 4/1/2014
Replacing all the district's PCs would have cost about $6.4 million. We saved approximately $4 million with the Dell cloud client-computing solution.
Greg Bartay, Director of Technology, Pearland Independent School District, United States
ChallengeWith nearly 10,000 PCs, some 12 years old, Pearland schools desperately needed an affordable and manageable way to deliver updated PC capabilities to students and staff.
SolutionNot only did the district save about $4 million by not buying new PCs, it also centralized system management and enabled BYOD with full remote access, all with Dell cloud client-computing.
Benefits• Drastically improved the learning environment for 20,000+ students
• Saved approximately $4 million by not having to replace 4,500 legacy PCs
• Reduced IT desktop systems management services by 75%
• Enabled a true Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiative
• Reduced classroom disruptions by centrally managing more than 90% of desktop changes
• Provided the ability for students and staff to have full remote access to applications and files when outside the network

Joel Hale Says Christie 'Couldn't Have Been Cooler' After White House Correspondents Dinner Jokes

McHale later told HuffPost Live that he met up with Christie and he "couldn't have been cooler afterwards." Check out the original video from the White House Correspondents Dinner below:
McHale said that no one cared about Bill Clinton jokes anymore, even though he was worried about how the audience would react.

White House Knew Immediately Embassy Attack Was Terrorism According To Jay Sekulow
Jay Sekulow, Chief Counsel of the American Center for Law & Justice (ACLJ) says that President Obama and his administration knew that the US Embassy attack in Benghazi, Libya, was in fact a terrorist event.
Emails reveal: that the Obama Administration knew within about two hours that the attacks on the American consulate in Libya was carried out by terrorists associated with al-Qaeda. The American people deserve the truth about what happened – not a cover-up. President Obama's ever-changing story only underscores the instability of radical governments in the Middle East.
Sign the petition demanding an end to US funding of radical regimes at: http://aclj.org/radical-islam/
Townhall Magazine named: Jay Sekulow: to its "Townhall of Fame" and recognized him as "one of the top lawyers for religious freedom in the United States." Jay Sekulow was named one of "The 90 Greatest Washington Lawyers of the Last 30 Years" by Legal Times and recognized for "fighting to expand liberties and protect civil rights." The Chicago Tribune concluded that the ACLJ has "led the way" in Christian legal advocacy. TIME Magazine named Jay Sekulow one of the "25 Most Influential Evangelicals" in America and called the ACLJ "a powerful counterweight" to the ACLU. Business Week said the ACLJ is "the leading advocacy group for religious freedom."
Jay Sekulow's work on the issue of judicial nominees – including possible vacancies at the Supreme Court – has received extensive news coverage including a front-page story in The Wall Street Journal. In addition, The National Law Journal has twice named Jay Sekulow one of the "100 Most Influential Lawyers" in the United States. He is also among a distinguished group of attorneys known as "The Public Sector 45″ named by The American Lawyer, which said the designation represents "45 young lawyers outside the private sector whose vision and commitment are changing lives."

The Bullet RanchRead MoreThe Range 10-lane indoor range 75-foot lanes Rated for all common handgun, rifle, and shotgun calibers The Rentals Handguns, rifles, and shotguns available for rent Range ammunition required for all rentals At a Glance Steven Garavuso wanted The Bullet Ranch to be different from other ranges. After a 17-year career in law enforcement, the NRA-certified pistol instructor sought to create a welcoming and inviting facility where visitors could feel comfortable and—most importantly—safe as they learned, practiced, and purchased new equipment. This dedication to a condescension-free environment permeates the center's classes, which include safety courses for various firearms as well as concealed-carry weapon training. Firearms, apparel, accessories are all available for sale, and the onsite gunsmiths lend their services by performing maintenance inspections and detailed cleanings. The Bullet Ranch also features an outdoor archery range with 10 90-foot lanes and movable targets.12425 Broad Street SouthwestPataskala, OH US
All Tails R WagginRead MoreThere's no question pets are in good hands when they're at All Tails' R' Waggin'. That's because the owner, who founded the business in 1999, not only works at her own business daily, but also lives on site. This means an experienced pet care pro is always on hand to oversee the company's boarding service, which places pets in a spacious 4' x 14' run regardless of their size. All Tails' R' Waggin' also offers positive-reinforcement training as well as professional and self-serve grooming.12591 Worthington Rd SWPataskala, OH US
Royal Pet Supplies PlusRead MoreSince 1988, Pet Supplies Plus has welcomed millions of furry critters of every stripe—from llamas and monkeys to potbellied pigs—into their animal-friendly stores. The shop is designed so that both pets and their owners can easily navigate the inventory of more than 10,000 items. Wide aisles give leashed pups enough room to roam, colorful signage keeps shoppers moving in the right direction, and low shelves allow dogs to sniff out their preferred brand of rawhide chew. A self-serve dog wash enables guests to scrub their canine companions' coats to a youthful, puppy-like shine, whereas grooming services enlist professionals to tackle tougher jobs, such as brushing out matted fur or convincing dalmatians to stop mixing white and black after Labor Day.8170 E Broad StReynoldsburg, OH US
Mattress MartRead MoreMattress Mart's slumber experts stock their stores with major-brand sleep surfaces?such as Serta, iComfort, and Simmons Beauty Rest?in twin, full, queen, and king sizes. Customers can rest their backs on the firm billows of a Factory Select twin set or support larger-scale lumbar regions with a soft, flippable Newport Flush set.2783 Taylor Rd.Reynoldsburg, OH US
Rainbow Station DaycareRead MoreIn 1984, Bonnie Strother was working as a nurse, and she decided to place her two young children in the most trustworthy care center she could find. However, her search seemed fruitless, with no center meeting her exacting criteria. Rather than give up, she followed her entrepreneurial spirit and founded her own daycare to make a difference in her community. Rainbow Station continues this mission today, providing a quality care option for the community with a curriculum based on molding youth into good citizens. Rainbow Station's daily activities draw from the Creative Curriculum school of thought, which emphasizes building on children's natural development through an understanding of theory and a mix of playful activities. On any given day, the children may skip and gallop together, play math games, or design arts and crafts based on their favorite vice presidents. In addition to stimulating budding intellects, the lessons teach youth in the infant and toddler, preschool, and school-aged programs how to interact with one another in a respectful and caring way.:m]]2010 Officeview PlReynoldsburg, OH US
Top Shelf MixologistRead MoreTop Shelf Mixologist dispatches licensed and certified bartenders to serve guests at private parties, weddings, and other events. These bartenders draw upon decades of experience as they mix together a variety of cocktails and beverages from customer-provided liquor, creating classic drinks or working around a theme.1972 Haverton DrReynoldsburg, OH US
