How do I make my mobile development life easier
A reduced performance spread, the pratical side, a growing community are all things that make me use Cordova for my "simple" mobile developement. And my workflow is really making my life easier !
My best pratices
When I first developed stuff with Cordova, I was doing everything inside a single `www` folder. Even if, at the end of the day, only the compiled / concatenated sources were used, the app weight was pretty high. Not even speaking about the node_modules folder, browsed and packaged by Cordova on each build.
Noob error.
`www` folder only contains what is necessary
So, as soon as the project is created with
cordova create myProject
I create a specific folder for my original files. I call it `app` most of the time, but `src` would work fine too 🙂
In this folder, we can find:
- assets (index.html, fonts, images, language files…), copied on build
- styles (.css, .scss, .less, .styl etc.) compiled / concatenated in `www` on build.
- scripts (.js, .coffee etc.) compilés / concaténés dans `www` au build.
- bower_components: all the mess created / managed by bower
- node_modules: all the mess created / managed by npm
- partials / templates (.html, .jade etc) compiled as html in `www` on build
This way, my `www`folder is kept clean. Assets are copied in their own respective folders, stylesheets are compiled (if needed) and minified / concatenated in a `styles` folder (or `css`, it depends), same goes for scripts (`scripts` or `js` folder).
When building, Cordova takes `www` folder, and sort out the rest, taking only what it needs (hooks, plugins, platforms…), producing an app with a pretty reasonnable weight.
Use a task runner
I won't provide support for the task runners "war" here, each one has some pros and cons, and the best is the one that fits your own needs !
Pretty much with Gulp, I started using Brunch , after having taken part into the Open Source project Cozy Cloud, which I recommend by the way 🙂
To me, this one is less verbose than the others and, despite pretty confusing terms / organisation at first, the tool is fast and effective, and fits the needs that result from my above best pratices. I won't go into my configuration details here, but a lot of templates are available.
brunch watch
and I'm not worried about modifications going from `app` to `www`.
Quick testing
In the end, a Cordova app is just a simple, encapsulated Web app. Therefore, it's easily testable in a browser. Most of the time, Google Chrome or Safari give results comparable to the Android / iOS browsers. Multiple tools allow us to test of our app in a 'responsive' mode, getting a glimpse of the obtainable result on a real device.
Already widly used in classic web develomement, life-reloading is a life saver which we can no longer do without. Even if Cordova provides commands for that (serve, for instance), I personnaly use Ionic, using AngularJS for some of my apps. This framework is fast and based on Cordova, so CLI commands are pretty similar (ionic create, ionic serve / run / emulate, etc.) That being said, in my opinion Ionic provides more options, especially since the last updates.
ionic serve -l -c -s
Ionic opens a comparative view of iOS and Android rendering with 2 side-to-side columns, each one having its own independent behaviour.
Browsing back to the main page, most of the time http://localhost:8100, you can use your app, helped by the live reload (-l), console logs (-c) and server logs (-s) display.
The problem with Cordova is that we're quickly limited by what is provided by "web only". We quickly face the need to use device's features, and we start to have testing troubles. Because, of course, browsers can't execute devices actions such as "vibration" or "sound" in a device way. We may then face the well known and utterly distressing repetition of
cordova run android --device
or friends, allowing you to compile and launch your app on the real device / the emulator. Plugins are then working, but the process is slow and repetitive. Even if the build only takes around 10 secs on a good computer, your productivity is slowed down.
Here again, Ionic comes to the rescue. Thanks to
ionic run android -l -c -s
Ionic modifies the `config.xml` file on its own, modifying the tag
<content src="index.html"/>
providing it with the local server address, with live-reload activated. No need to worry, the modification auto reverts at the end of the process. Back to a productivity worthy of the name; every modification on our sources is replicated directly on the device / emulator.
By the way, regarding Android, I highly recommend the use of GenyMotion instead of the regular emulator. The free version is efficient and usually enough for some quick tests.
If, by any chance, the live-reload was not working, make sure that Ionic is using the same IP address as your device / emulator, by typing
ionic address
With Ionic providing you with console and server logs, you already have a pretty good amount of information. But sometimes, you need to go deeper, debugging the app running on the device (css troubles for instance).
That's not a problem: Android and iOS both provide this feature, via their respective browser, Chrome et Safari.
Once USB Debugging is allowed on the device and your app is launched, just open Chrome and type
Your device should appear, with an 'inspect" link. The web inspector behaves just like on a classic page: elements highlight, styles modifications, …
On an iOS device, you have to allow the Web inspector deep into Safari advanced options. Then on the "desktop" one, you need to activate Development Tools display (Prefrences -> Advance-> Show Development menu)
Once the device is connected, it should appear in the "Development" menu. When you launch your app, it appears in the sub-menu.
What about versionning ? It's as important as an efficient workflow. As a lot of us, I don't keep node_modules or bower_components folder, which can be reinstalled using CLI thanks to package.json and bower.json files.
I usually don't keep `www` folder either, as it can be fully compiled / created using `app` folder and brunch.
And, I don't keep Cordova plugins folder. Since I, yet, didn't find a good, package.json-like tool to keep trace of my installed plugins, I took the habit to create a script like `init.sh`and put my `cordova plugin add xxxxxx` stuff. Once my repo is cloned, I just have to execute this file.
We could go further, by ignoring every platform `build` folder too, but I don't go that far.
In a nutshell
When everything works fine, editing a source file into my editor makes Brunch, the task runner, take care of them immediatly. Just after that, Ionic detects a change into the `www` folder, and replicates the modifications in my browser / my emulator / my device.
The splendid ( 😀 ) infography below illustrates the process :
The time saved is considerable. I'm sure that stuff could be modified / improved, so feel free to leave a comment !

Tuck n' Snug
In the early hours of most mornings I could be found crouched in the dark by my three-year-old sons bed, trying to lull him back to sleep. The problem seemed to be his pillow and duvet, which kept falling off. Hed wake up, find it too difficult to wrestle the covers back on and call out for Mummy.I assumed this must be a common problem and went looking for solutions. Strangely I couldnt find anything that worked. Motivated by 1,095 consecutive nights of broken sleep Tuck n Snug was born.I sketched the design, had prototypes made and road tested them on the kids beds. Since then Im delighted to report that Ive never been wrenched from glorious slumber to locate pillows or pull up duvets. As a family, we are now catching up on years of broken sleep.And so, the Tuck n Snug journey began. We would love to hear customer feedback on the product, so please email us.The Tuck n Snug team and their kids wish you all a peaceful night.

Lynn Awarded The Tuck n' Snug 5/5
Great quality, easy step by step instructions to fit the sheets, packaged beautifully and it made me excited to try the product. Very expensive packaging actually thought it would look great as a gift. There was a lot of packaging though which maybewasn'tneeded. I did really like theinstructionsbut atfirst glance they made it look like the bed sheets were harder to fit than they actually were. I did wrestle with it the first time I put it on the bed but by the 2nd time it was easy to fit and made the bed look neater and better presented. The sheets seemed to help her keep cool a lot more easily as she normally kicks the sheets off after a while. I think the material of the sheets helped her sleep more than the actual tuck/flap. It washed really well and just took a little longer than her other sheets to dry but not a problem at all. The quality was I believe the best sheets she has ever had. They were breathable, fresh, high quality anddefiantly long lasting. I don'tbelievethe sheetwill bobble in the wash or lose its softness. I would purchase more and certainly recommend. Has really changed my mind on spending that bit extra for quality bedding to improve quality of sleep. A great product that could improve your Childs sleep. Also the clean white colour with the cute kitten was a nice touch and my daughter adored it!! Lynn Shepherd Frankie 4 Years

Rebecka Awarded The Tuck n' Snug 3/5
It looked complicated. Decent packaging with logo visible. I did not find the instructions easy to follow and I still do not think I am using this correctly. I did not find this easy to put on the bed but might get easier over time. I do not think it has changed sleep pattern. Was very easy to launder. Material used is good quality, feels heavy and durable. Although being in white will show up stains more. If the instructions were easy to follow my view may have been different. Not something for us as found it too complicated to use. Rebecka Bow Caleb 7 Years

Healing herbal soup QinBuLiang (清補涼)
Feeling stressed and tired?
In China there was a popular style of living, called YangShen (養生), meaning to nurture life for health and happiness. Alongside with the concept of peace and harmony, YangShen also promotes a healthy lifestyle which interpreted by many food-loving Cantonese as eating well, fine tea drinking and to enjoy a variety of healing herbal soups.
This herbal soup is called QinBuLiang (清補涼), meaning refreshing, nurturing and cooling. It is often served when a family member is stressed, anxious or with dry coughs.
The QinBuLiang soup base contains pearl barley (YiMi 薏米), lotus seeds (LianZi 蓮子), goji berries (GouQi 枸杞), fox nuts (Qianshi 芡實 ), Chinese yam (HuaiSan 淮山) and Solomon's seal rhizome (YuZu 玉竹), each has commonly recognized healing benefits. The soup is cooked with pork meat and bones to enhance its flavor. I often add a couple tablespoons of dried longan fruit to give it a hint of sweetness to what otherwise quite a bland soup.
Chilled spicy tripe with soy, sesame oil & vinegar (low FODMAP, gluten free)
I often heard from my friends that they did not like tripe. I then asked them if they had tried the Asian style spicy tripe – tastes so good that you would change your perspective.
I cook tripe in two styles – hot with oyster sauce & tomato sauce; or a chilled 'liang ban' version – lightly blanched tripe with soy, sesame oil, vinegar and chilies.
Here is the chilled version for lunch today. It is one of my husband's favorite dish.
Recipe is as follows: Read the rest of this entry »
Green bean noodles (粉皮) with Sichuan chili soybean pork
A couple of years ago a school mun made a green bean sheet dish for the school food festival. It tasted really nice with a wonderful texture. So I said to myself that I would make it one day. It took me two years to get around it – well, better now than never.
Here is my spicy green bean sheet with pork. The pork is minced and stir fried with Sichuan chili soybean paste (豆瓣酱) and sweet soybean paste. The style is 'liang ban' which means the dish is lightly chilled after the cooking is completed.
Simple green banana curry (low FODMAP, gluten free, vegan)
I bought this big bunch of green bananas from the supermarket a week ago – the bananas didn't fully ripe after all these hot weather! Well, we shall not waste them…
This banana curry is quite simple once you have invested in a few spices. If you can find a low FODMAP curry power, great. Otherwise the spice mix I adopted was a few spices laying in cupboard and a few thing from my freezer (tamarind paste, frozen ginger & frozen chili). If you don't have some of these spices (except for turmeric), feel free to skip a few.
What does it taste like? – give it a try.
Method is as follows:
Brown rice congee with salted pork & peanuts (low FODMAP, gluten free)
For a Chinese southerner, what food can be more warm and comforting than a hot bowl of pork congee (粥)? The humble congee is the sort of food kids get when they are sick. It is also a popular street food and you will find it at 'yum cha'. Coogee goes well with fried noodles, Chinese donuts and it is delicious by itself. You can eat it with the thick & bulky Chinese ceramic spoon, or raise the bowl to your lips and slurp it.
If you'd like to have a go at cooking your own congee, a pressure cooker is highly recommended, otherwise it takes hours.
Here is my lunch today, brown rice congee with salted pork and peanuts.

Celery salad with black fungus and peanuts (Liang Ban 涼拌) (vegan)
Here is another cool Asian salad for a hot Sydney day – lightly blanched celery, cooked salted peanuts, crunchy black fungus and green bean vermicelli. Great for lunch, dinner, or as a side dish.

2-Time Winner
IT Concepts, Inc.
Pinakin Patel
President and CEO
IT Concepts, Inc. (ITC) provides IT engineering and business consulting services focused on federal agencies. "As a small-business systems integrator, we view effective programs from two perspectives: the quality of our team and the quality of our processes," says Pinakin Patel, president and CEO of ITC. "The hallmark of a client's partnership with ITC is collaboration, teamwork and effective communication. … We are big-picture thinkers who pay great attention to every little detail." Another differentiator for ITC is its "fearless innovation," he says. "It's why we've become the ultimate go-to for federal government sectors. We believe in bringing ideas to life."
Quick Tip: "We believe that our success is measured only by the success of our clients."
From the beginning, Patel envisioned ITC growing quickly. "I realized I wouldn't be able to accomplish everything by myself," he says. "We built a key management team based on trust, diverse skillsets and similar work ethics. Our roles and responsibilities were easily identified and adopted immediately. Having each executive member focused on key areas of the business has allowed us to focus purely on growth, while being able to share the operational needs of the company and supporting our employees." Over the next five years, ITC plans to triple in size, and the company has hired a dedicated business-development specialist to help accomplish this goal.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Limited Brands Inc.'s quarterly profit fell 15%, and the specialty apparel retailer cut its forecast for February same-store sales, citing bad weather that hurt results at Victoria's Secret.
The company also said its profitability initiatives, such as shutting unproductive stores, expanding Express stores to include both genders, and increasing the size of Victoria's Secret stores, will not bear fruit until 2008.
"It's important to understand that we are not anticipating a positive impact on profitability in 2007 from these initiatives," Chief Financial Officer Martyn Redgrave said on a Thursday analyst call that was Webcast. "We do expect that this activity will begin contributing to profitability in 2008."
The company said the plan includes increasing the square footage of the average Victoria's Secret store by about 50% per store, and in 2007, it plans to open 35 new stores and remodel another 105 stores to the new larger store size. At Bath & Body Works, Limited plans to open roughly 55 new stores in 2007, resulting in square footage increase of about 3%.
Columbus, Ohio-based Limited LTD, +0.84% the parent of Victoria's Secret, Express and Bath & Body Works stores, late Wednesday posted net earnings of $439.8 million, or $1.08 a share, for the period ended Feb. 3, compared with $519.2 million, or $1.28 a share, in the year-ago quarter. The year-ago results included 29 cents a share in favorable one-time items -- 25 cents a share for the resolution of certain tax matters and 4 cents a share related to the recognition of gift card breakage.
Sales rose 13.6% to $4.02 billion in the latest quarter from $3.54 billion last year. Excluding the fourteenth week in the most recent quarter and the gift card breakage adjustment from last year, the sales increase from the comparable thirteen-week period last year was 10%, Limited said.
Analysts, on average, expected it to earn $1.08 a share on revenue of $4.01 billion, according to Thomson Financial.
Shares were down 2.4% at $38.59.
"We have several concerns entering the new year including open management slots in the apparel brands, increased competition in intimate apparel and high inventory levels across the enterprise at fiscal year end," Key Banc analyst Jeffrey Stein wrote in a note to clients.
Same-store sales, or sales at stores open at least one year, rose 8%.
Citing, in part, weather conditions that negatively impacted Valentine's Day sales at Victoria's Secret, and, to a lesser extent, Bath & Body Works, Limited said it expects February same-store sales to rise in the low to mid-single-digit range vs. its prior forecast for a high single-digit rise.
It forecast first-quarter per-share earnings of 25 cents to 28 cents vs. analysts' average 29-cent per-share outlook.
"Unfortunately, the quarter has gotten off to a slower start than we had initially forecasted, due in part to weather conditions that negatively impacted Valentine's Day sales at Victoria's Secret and to a lesser extent Bath & Body Works," Redgrave said on the conference call,
For 2007, Limited said it sees 2007 per-share earnings of $1.75 to $1.90. Analysts are currently looking for $1.90 a share.
The company recently saw a shakeup in its upper management ranks. Last month, Limited named Lori Greenly chief executive of its Victoria's Secret stores, and named Denise Landman as the president of its Pink division within Victoria's Secret.
The moves came on the heels of the departures of the CEO of its Victoria's Secret Direct division, the head of the Limited Stores chain, and the exit of two co-presidents at its casual clothing chain Express.

I don't really have a lot to say this morning... :(
But I read from Ree, The Pioneer Woman that you should blog daily.
Even if you don't have much to say...
So... here goes... I had a Super Relaxing weekend with my family.
I think I clocked close to 10 hours of tv and movies (which never happens).
But it was needed, I was tired.
Now I am refreshed and ready to take on 2011 like never before.
Bring it on New Year! I am ready for you!

11 Sep 2004A Factory connection
As the Prefects the band played with Joy Division on the Last Night Of The Electric Circus, later a 10" album on Virgin. Joy Division (Warsaw), John Cooper-Clarke and The Fall amongst others were included on the album but inexplicably the Prefects were left off the final cut.
Lyricist and vocalist Rob Lloyd had previously been asked at an earlier Prefects gig in Manchester if he fancied being the vocalist in a new band 'Warsaw'. If he had taken up the offer then history may have been rather different!
The Nightingales appeared from the ashes of The Prefects, who in retrospect were well ahead of their time. The 'Gales had a hatful of hits in the eighties and played countless Peel sessions.
Two new singles are currently out and the band have lost nothing of their edge; Lloyd once being described as an English Captain Beefheart.
The Nightingales are playing Alan McGhees Death Disco night in December-and both Prefects and Nightingales reissue material will appear in the next couple of months.

In the grey days of late 1970s post-punk Manchester, youth culture was a serious affair: every musical performance was measured mostly by the conviction of its delivery. The term 'New Wave' opened up free vistas where acquired skills could once again be exercised after punk's monochrome blur. It could be applied to anything from a James 'Blood' Ulmer record to the latest Throbbing Gristle release, Magazine to Swell Maps. Move outside that terrain into Sun Ra, Parliament, Frank Sinatra and Martin Denny, and your options were suddenly without limit...
Then came Tony Wilson's Factory Club (at the Russell Club in Hulme) offering an open invitation to experiment that was taken up when Ken Hollings, Howard Walmsley, Eddie Sherwood and a few others decided to make some noise to accompany their 16mm silent epic Biting Tongues. A further performance followed a few weeks later, when Colin Seddon and Graham Massey disbanded their Post Natals project and joined up. The film itself, a flashing series of negative images, became a memory; the name remained.

≫Successful Implementation & Integration Of Siebel Software for Electronic Appliance Industry
Landscape of Electronic Home & Industrial Appliances Industry
The electronic home & industrial appliances industry has registered a sustained growth in the past few years. However, consumer expectation and need of more energy saving certified products have also increased manifold. A better customer service is the need of the hour to retain consumers. In this respect, the necessary developmental changes in the Siebel software, as well as the CTI tool and its successful integration with ERP by Cubastion team of developers, proves beneficial as it results in a seamless interaction between customers, technicians and customer care agents.
This case study explores how Cubastion has rolled out a successful integration of Siebel 18.104.22.168 to CTI and SAP within a record time of just 120 days.
Client Background
The company is one of the largest electronics appliances brands of India with a vast network of over 1 lac Indian cities. It is also one of the premier brands, which is actively engaged in providing innovative engineering solutions. The brand is a trusted name in textile machinery, mining, and construction equipment.
Need of Siebel software implementation
The implementation of Siebel software was necessary to streamline business processes of the home and industry appliances company as well as to ensure an enhanced customer service. Cubastion is a Gold partner of Oracle Siebel and successfully integrated CTI and SAP with its Siebel version 220.127.116.11.
Some of the key objectives of the client behind this major move were better communication with its existing dealers and customers across the country along with empowering its skilled technicians with mobile apps to meet their needs of mobility. The client was also interested in offering its customers an excellent customer service in a hassle-free manner. Earlier, its call center agents rendered the entire customer service without having a centralized data, which makes the customer experience non-satisfactory. Moreover, business processes between the client company and its franchisees were all manual, leaving ample scope for human errors and increase in operational cost.
Approach for Siebel Software Implementation
As soon as the UBPG Department of the reputed home and industry appliances company contacted Cubastion for its Siebel Software implementation, a skilled team of professionals quickly sprung into action. The team of professionals not only deployed Seibel software of version 220.127.116.11, but also integrated the CRM with CTI tool and client's existing backend application SAP ECC 6.
Key Highlights of Siebel CRM Implementation by Cubastion
The entire service processes within the company get automated with the successful implementation of Siebel CRM with CTI and ERP. Apart from automation, the processes thus became more user-friendly and speedy, which was impossible without the able expertise of the good Cubastion team. Siebel CRM implementation encompassed several key highlights, which are listed as below:
CTI- There was a successful integration of Siebel CRM with Siebel CTI (Computer Telephony Integration).The middleware enables Siebel CRM to establish a robust connection with phone system of the client company.
ERP integration – Another major highlight was an integration of Siebel 126.96.36.199 with the client's back-end application SAP.
Mobile app for Technician – There was a development of a reliable mobile app for technicians to check the allocated service request, updated request, inventory management, providing service request receipt to the customer.
OBIEE Tool – Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) was incorporated into Siebel CRM software with SAP and CTI across the franchise network of the client to generate the required reports. The dedication of the Cubastion team brilliantly enhances reporting, which proves to become a great help for managers.
Benefits of the implemented CRM and Integration
- Our CRM implementation service facilitates effortless resolution of customer queries by pan- India franchisees of the client.
- With the integration of Siebel CRM with CTI, agents can now send or receive voice calls as well as other communication functionalities right from their CRM software.
- With CTI handling the call routing, there will be minimal call lag while resolving customer queries, which results in happier customers and an enhanced brand image.
- The implementation and integration also allow CTI hoteling, a state-of-the-art concept in which some agents can log in to the CTI system if required.
- The mobile app integrated by the Cubastion professionals with the CRM empowers technicians to check any allocated service request, update a service request or check the inventory from anywhere. The mobile app also allows them to produce a service request receipt to hand over the customer making the service request.
- The implementation also enables the client's pan India franchisees to generate consumer bills, thus increasing their billing efficiency.
- The implemented CRM with SAP integration streamlined the end-to-end payment processing within the company and its franchisees.
- The incorporated reporting tool named OBIEE makes query analysis, reporting, and many other tasks easier by leveraging the power of business intelligence.
Lastly, through this entire project, Cubastion emerged out as a company that can deliver any complex project within a requisite timeframe by overcoming all the project hurdles via its experienced team and enthusiasm to serve its clients.

Through the agreement my employer has with Microsoft, I am eligible to get Office at a discount through the Home Use Program.
Having downloaded and installed Office 2013 on Windows 7, I found that I could not register/activate the software. All the MS help pages just say unhelpful things along the line of "You don't need to activate Office 2013, it will do it automatically". But it just didn't work giving a typically useful MS error message "Something went wrong".
Anyway, long story short, you have to either deactivate User Account Control or run the software as an administrator to make this work. This is the case even if you are logged on as an account with administrator privileges already.
I chose to run as administrator:
In the Start menu, right click any office application and choose Run as administrator:
Choose yes on the pop up box that asks if you want excel to make changes to your computer.
Activation then worked automatically as MS said it would.
Apparently turning off UAC will also work but I did not try this.

I think that educational games and videos can easily get students attention at school. When a student is not interested in a topic, electronics can pull their attention back to learning. Also phones are very versitile. A student can have a calculator, translator, dictionary, thesaurus, etc. on their desk in a single mobile device. Since I am a math major I am interested in how mobile devices can aid in teaching mathematical concepts. There are many math games and apps on mobile devices that are educational for students. Like I said, students who do not like math might enjoy playing a multiplication game on their device.
I am very interested in the use of mobile devices in the classroom to keep students interested in the material, and to promote learning and research. I also see disadvantages of mobile devices. I think it is important for our students to learn how to communicate without a screen in front of their face. I personally would not use mobile devices for discussions for this reason. I think that it takes away from face-to-face communication. I also know that students can become easily distracted when they have a mobile device on their desks. Teachers would have to set limits for times that students could use devices and also prohibit games and messaging that would distract the students from learning. Lastly, I do not like to read ebooks because they hurt my eyes. I wonder if that would also be a problem for students.

|Not my photo- stole it off google images.
I try to avoid shopping at the black hole that is WalMart- but I do get my candles there. They are cheap (under $6 for a huge 20 oz. jar) and smell just as strong and great as Yankee or Gold Canyon. My favorites are Mainstay's brand Mulled Spices (perfect for Christmas time) and Pumpkin Spice. Most recently BH&G True Fall Splendor (that name! lol).
Where do you find cheap, good smelling candles?
*This post is in NO way sponsored. I don't even like WalMart- just their candles and people watching.

Marlou, the most famous member of Hasht5, confirmed on Twitter that he already left the group to pursue a solo career.
Hasht5 member Marlou Arizala rumored plan of having a solo career has been materialized. He purportedly accepted an offer after realizing the huge benefits that he can get from a major proposal. Arizala made the official announcement through his own Twitter account and stated that he is no longer part of Hasht5.
"Hindi na ako Hasht5!"
Marlou shot to fame as a member of Hasht5 who initially released funny videos on Facebook. Though he doesn't possess some good-looking physical attributes, Marlou captured the attention of the netizens due to his immense self-confidence and on how he crack jokes.
Watch Marlou(Justin Bieber ng Pinas) in the video below and tell us if it made you laugh using the comment box.
Previously he vowed not to leave the group and he told his followers on social media, "Sabi ko mahal ko yung Hasht5 --diyan ako nanggaling kaya hindi ko iiwan yung grupo ko. Hindi po ako aalis pangako ko po." Unfortunately, this promise was broken when Marlou decided to split from the group after evaluating a certain offer to him. The remaining four members of Hasht5 mentioned on social media that they will continue to entertain their fans despite the departure of Arizala.
Meanwhile, on social media, this talented kid is now compared to Zayn Malik who quit from the famous boy group "One Direction" to pursue solo projects. The similarity of their actions towards their careers could be moving in the "same direction" or maybe to some certain aspects! LOL

I was recently in Sarasota visiting my Mom and we went to one of her favorite restaurants, Eat Here, which features a wide variety of small plates to share. We ordered bruschetta followed by a beautiful platter of roasted vegetables. The bruschetta was good, but the roasted vegetables were spectacular: carrots, beets, potatoes, onions and green beans. We ate every bite, fighting over the last onion. I realized later that except for the green beans, they were all root vegetables. While root vegetables are typically seen as the unglamorous workhorses of the produce department, when you roast them they transform into jewels with a completely different flavor- a sweet, caramelized taste and an apple pie aroma.
It is amazing to me that you can roast carrots and parsnips, puree them with vegetable broth, and end up with a creamy soup that tastes and feels like a rich cream bisque. Add some fresh ginger and a few spices and you have a wonderful, warm winter soup.
Speaking of ginger, I must digress for a minute. When I sat down to read the January issue of Self magazine, one of the headlines on the front cover grabbed my attention. It said, "Miracle Ingredient, It keeps you healthy, pretty, thinner, too." Of course I rushed immediately to that page to see what this miracle ingredient could be and where I could buy it. Turns out it's ginger root. The article said ginger offers four important health benefits: cancer protection, cold relief, hangover help (queasy stomach), and muscle pain relief. All great benefits, yes, but nowhere in the article was an explanation of how ginger makes you prettier or thinner. And I read it four times. I will continue to use ginger in recipes because I like the flavor it adds, and if by chance a miracle happens to take place, I'll let you know.
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups chopped yellow onion
- 2½ cups coarsely chopped carrot (about 1 pound)
- 3 cups coarsely chopped parsnip (about 1 pound, plus one more parsnip to use for topping)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger root, minced or grated
- 3 cups water
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 2 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ cup (1/8-inch-thick) slices parsnip (optional)
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel and chop the carrots and parsnips into large pieces. Spread out on large roasting pan and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Roast for 15-20 minutes or until vegetables start to blister and can easily be pierced with a fork. Remove from oven.
- If you want parsnip chips for a topping, slice a parsnip into ⅛ inch slices, toss with olive oil and salt, and put them in the oven for about 15 minutes, or until they start to brown and curl at the edges.
- Heat the other 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large soup pot. Saute the onions, garlic and ginger until soft and fragrant.
- Add the water and the broth to the pot. Add the roasted vegetables and spices. Bring to a boil and then simmer gently for about 5 minutes.
- Puree with a stick blender or in your blender or food processor. Add more salt if needed.
- Top with parsnip chips and serve.

Yarlington House weddings | Lucy and Mark
What a difference a day makes – when I met up with Lucy and Mark the afternoon before their wedding, the weather wasn't looking promising. Grey and wet. September has from experience been the best month of the year to get married in as the weather tends to be settled and warm. Friday before wasn't looking good. Even more so as Lucy and Mark are based in the Caribbean, having left the UK weather behind long ago. But we needn't have worried, when the weather is good in the UK, it is spectacular, one of the most beautiful countries to be in. Beautiful late afternoon autumnal light in one of the most beautiful counties just cant be beaten. Yarlington House weddings doesn't get much better than this (do I sound like one of the judges on MasterChef!) Beautiful couple so obviously in love, fantastic family and friends and the stunning back drop of Yarlington House. To be honest, working as a wedding photographer doesn't get much better than this!

Actor Gerard Depardieu backs Donald Trump as he's 'not am imbecile' like Bush
FRENCH actor Gerard Depardieu has backed Donald Trump saying the new President-elect will "teach politicians a lesson", after they broke "the trust of millions".
Actor Gerard Depardieu has shown his support for Donald Trump to be a good President
Pro-Putin Mr Depardieu, who has starred in 170 films including Life of Pi and The Man in the Iron Mask, told French weekly the Journal du Dimanche that he was "pleased" to hear that Mr Trump had won the US election and had defeated Hillary Clinton, because his stunning victory would teach elitist politicians a "harsh lesson".
He said: "Mr Trump's shock win will teach politicians – who stopped acting like politicians a long time ago – a lesson.
Liberal governments around the world have broken the trust of millions – citizens want their voices to be heard, they want to take their country back from the powerful elite."
Mr Depardieu, who famously went into self-imposed 'tax exile' following François Hollande's election win in 2012, also said unlike former US president George W. Bush, Mr Trump was a "smart" man.
The actor says the new President-elect will 'teach politicians a lesson'
He said: "Unlike Mr Bush, Mr Trump is far from being an imbecile. He is unafraid to cross the line, and doesn't hesitate to speak his mind."
Unlike Mr Bush, Mr Trump is far from being an imbecile.
The controversial actor added "no one" knew whether Mr Trump was capable of governing America, but that because the real estate behemoth was the "exact opposite" of Mr Bush and outgoing president Barack Obama, his policies would be too.
Mr Depardieu added that the US election's unexpected outcome was the symptom of the general malaise felt by millions of everyday, middle-class Americans and Europeans, who are fed up with the status quo and are feeling left behind.
But, while Brexit was the first rebellion of the everyday man, the controversial actor lashed out at Britons.
Depardieu branded former President George W. Bush an 'imbecile'
He said: "The British were the first to voice their discontent via the Brexit 'leave' vote.
"But sooner or later, they will pay for their cowardice.
The controversial actor added 'no one' knew whether Mr Trump was capable of governing America
"I don't like their mentality. But, luckily, they have incredible football players, and Ken Loach."
The French movie star also said that the Brexit vote could not be compared to the rise of the extreme-right in France, and that that Marine Le Pen, the leader of the eurosceptic, nationalist National Front party, was "not a threat to France".

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) said it will reject claims dated Oct. 1 or later that don't contain a valid code from the 10th edition of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, better known as ICD-10. This includes codes from ICD-9, or a mix of codes from ICD-9 and ICD-10, the agency said. Offices that aren't able to use the ICD-10 codes by Oct. 1 may be able to work with their billing service on devising a solution, or ask insurance companies if they have a customer portal that accommodates the new codes as a short-term fix. At the same time, state workers' compensation divisions are taking various approaches to handling the new diagnostic codes, including mandated new forms and requirements. State workers' compensation programs aren't required to transition to ICD-10, but industry experts indicate the move is advisable to avoid having two sets of codes in use. In 13 states — Arizona, Arkansas, Hawaii, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont and Virginia — the regulations employed by workers' compensation divisions don't use the diagnostic codes and thus haven't addressed the ICD-10 transition.

Former employees and contractors who worked at nuclear weapons facilities in Colorado, California and Washington could qualify for benefits after the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services moved to include three sites in a special class of locations where workers were exposed to cancer risks.
The National Safety Council is calling on employers to develop workplace policies for opioid prescription painkillers after reviewing research and court cases detailing the negative impacts of these medicines on worker safety and workers' compensation costs. Many workers who have taken opioid painkillers following on-the-job injuries have become addicted, suffered additional injuries or have fatally overdosed. As a result, courts have ordered employers and worker's compensation insurance carriers to pay for detoxification, medication-assisted treatment and death benefits to surviving family members.
The American Medical Association (AMA) is requesting more doctors use prescription drug-monitoring databases (PDMD). Currently, prescribers in about half the states aren't required to check a PDMP before writing a prescription. Data suggests when prescribers aren't required to check the database, they usually don't. In Kentucky, university researchers found only 27.5% of prescribers in the state were even registered with PDMP in 2009 when checking the database wasn't mandatory. According to WorkCompCentral, Kentucky saw usage by 650% when the state began requiring physicians to use the database in 2012.
A National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) proposal would require insurers to audit TPAs. As the insurance industry continues to outsource functions like specialty underwriting and claim adjusting, NAIC is calling on states to keep a closer eye on third-party vendors. NAIC's Financial Analysis Working Group, part of its Financial Condition Committee, discussed a proposal to essentially mandate insurer audits of TPAs. The group recommended NAIC study costs and benefits of tweaking Model Guideline 1090, which covers third-party administrator regulations, to extend mandatory audits to workers' comp.
With the Social Security Trust Fund teetering on insolvency, the federal government is looking to squeeze whatever savings it can out of the program, according to a report issued by the Government Accountability Office. Social Security disability benefits are meant to replace claimants' wages lost due to disability, and the SSA is charged to reduce benefits for people who are also receiving workers' compensation indemnity benefits. However, according to the report which several Congressional committees requested the GAO conduct, these actions rarely happen.
The state's Industrial Commission adopted a revised Physician Fee Schedule that will increase reimbursements by an average of 4.5%. The change became effective Oct. 1. The National Council on Compensation Insurance estimates the changes will result in an overall increase in system costs of 1.1%.
In July, the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) and its Division of Workers' Compensation (DWC) posted a new progress report on implementing Gov. Brown's workers' compensation reforms. The report details increased payments to injured workers and significant cost-saving benefits for employers.
Also, the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) has approved DWC's final version of the Qualified Medical Evaluator (QME) regulations. The effective date of the new regulations was Sept. 1 .The new QME regulations establish a mandatory online QME panel request process for claims where the injured worker is represented by an attorney. Effective Oct. 1, all represented initial panel requests must be submitted through the DWC website.
In other state news, the California Workers' Compensation Institute (CWCI) recently reported average medical and indemnity payments during the initial stages of a claim declined in accident year 2014, which that Senate Bill 863 is having an impact.
WATCHLIST: California. AB 1124, a workers' compensation formulary bill, is pending governor signature. The bill would establish a prescription drug formulary in California's workers' compensation system and result in millions in cost savings, according to the bill's authors. The initiative is designed to ensure injured workers get the necessary level of care to help them return to work.
The state Division of Workers' Compensation has adopted two rule changes regarding record maintenance and stop-work orders. The rules became effective Sept. 16. A change to Rule 69-L-6.015 reduces the business record retention period requirements for employers to two, rather than three, years of employment activity. Division officials said the new rule will decrease the administrative burden on employers and therefore decrease costs. A change to Rule 69L-6.025 modifies the terms and conditions under which the Division of Workers' Compensation is authorized to release employers from stop-work orders. The change allows employers to resume work if they pay a minimum penalty of $1,000 as a down payment and make periodic payments on the remaining penalty amount. The rule also creates a new form, DFS-F4-1602 Agreed Order of Conditional Release, to lay out the terms when employers ask to pay penalties in installments.
WATCHLIST: HB205 was introduced in March and relates to workers' compensation treatment disputes. This bill provides dispute and appeals procedure for determining the workers' compensation medical director's decision.
WATCHLIST: Injured workers in New Mexico would be reimbursed up to $10,904 a year for purchasing up to two pounds of marijuana under the nation's first set of fee schedule rates and maximum quantities regulations for medical marijuana in a state workers' compensation system. On Oct. 2, the Workers' Compensation Administration proposed revisions to its fee schedule that would set the maximum reimbursement for marijuana at $12.02 per gram. Carriers would be required to reimburse the injured worker for up to 8 ounces of medical marijuana – 226.8 grams (a half-pound) – every three months.
The state's Workforce Safety & Insurance department has placed its initial medical treatment guidelines on its website. Used in workers' compensation utilization review and claim management, the guidelines were developed primarily from the Work Loss Data Institute's Official Disability Guidelines. These listed procedures are designed to ensure the use of latest available medical evidence to facilitate optimal treatment decisions for injured workers, according to the notice.
With the adoption of HB 97, North Carolina has moved a step closer to starting a workers' compensation drug formulary aimed at reducing prescription drug costs for injured workers — a measure implemented in several other states. The governor signed the Formulary Study Bill into Law Sept. 16. HB 97 directs the state Industrial Commission to conduct a study of a drug formulary implementation in workers' compensation claims with an expectation of a report due April 1, 2016, outlining the findings. Click here for more information and refer to section 15.13a (A).
FYI Drug Formulary Note: North Carolina is the latest state to eye a prescription drug formulary as a workers' compensation claim cost-reduction strategy. Texas was the trailblazer in workers' compensation formularies, adopting its own in 2011. Oklahoma, Ohio and Washington have followed suit. In California, a bill that would create a drug formulary is awaiting Gov. Jerry Brown's signature. Regulators in Louisiana, Nebraska, and South Carolina have also said they're considering formularies. While officials in Arkansas had been interested in a formulary, they have since backed off the idea.
Oregon's Workers' Compensation Division (WCD) adopted revisions to its medical rules that went into effect Oct. 1. The revised rules clarify that disputes under Oregon Revised Statutes Sections 656.260 or 262.327 must include certification in the record packet of whether there is a question of compensability on the underlying claim or condition. Revised rules also only allow carriers to deny payment to ancillary service providers for services rendered before submitting a treatment plan. The rules also require a carrier to respond in writing to a provider's request for pre-authorization within 14 days. The regulations also encourage providers to adhere to opioid guidelines approved by the Medical Advisory Committee.
The WCD also revised a notification form for injured workers on the need to perform invasive procedures during independent medical examinations as well as an elective surgery recommendation form for physicians. Doctors performing independent medical exams can ask an injured worker to submit to an invasive procedure as part of the evaluation. Before doing so, the provider must have the injured worker sign Form 3227 affirming the risks of the procedure were discussed. The WCD changes clarify the definition of "invasive procedures." At the same time, the division revised Form 3228, used for correspondence between carriers and providers about elective surgery. After the provider recommends elective surgery, the carrier must use Form 3228 to indicate whether it will seek an independent consultation or approve the request. If the carrier disagrees with the need for surgery, the provider can use the form to inform the injured worker that an agreement can't be reached. Both revised forms became effective Oct. 1.
A bill (HB 1621) that requires utilization review agents to provide notice of an adverse determination for a concurrent health care services review was signed into law and became effective Sept. 1. Under HB 1621, agents are required to provide notice no later than the 30th day before the health care services discontinuation date.
Another bill (SB 978) signed by the governor June 1 extends Government Code Chapter 552, which allows regulators to keep proprietary information and trade secrets confidential, to workers' compensation rate filings. The law, which went into effect Sept. 1, also requires the Insurance Department to disclose information concerning the department's general process and methodology for rate review, including factors that contribute to the disapproval of a rate.
