Learn how to define between OSS and custom web development

2010-06-04T06:31:00.000-07:00

Luckily there are many resources in the internet with the information on the topic, for example, I started with the article ‘Custom website development’ at Oxagile site and made up my mind that custom web development is the best choice for small and medium businesses .

Headphones with a torch or an iPhone with a pedometer

2010-05-31T06:33:00.000-07:00

So many strange combinations of devices can be found on the market. Some of them are interesting, others seem stupid or useless. For example, what do you think about headphones with a built-in torch or a pedometer for iPod?

The first ‘innovation seems stupid, at least, for me. I can’t imagine myself how I can need at one time a torch and headphones. But a friend of mine said that this device can be useful for miners – they’ll be happy to dig the coal, light the way and listen to the music.

The second idea I liked more - All-In Fitness Pedometer can be useful when you want to monitor the distance you have passed. I will definitely buy this app from the online store (the price is really low) and install in my iPhones.

Juice laptop batteries?

2010-05-25T04:38:00.000-07:00

Somewhere on the net I found the information about laptop batteries that work on fruit juice. I couldn’t believe it but then I visited the official website of SONY and find some profs that it is really so. What is more interesting, such batteries for laptops have already appeared in the market. That’s not myth! That’s reality.

But I wouldn’t like to have one like that. I prefer traditional replacement laptop batteries that I’m familiar with. But who knows? Maybe SONY will prove that this type of batteries is much better than the traditional one but I guess they are less effective and productive.

But still it’s cool!

Agile development

Agile methodology isn’t something new but it is worth taking into consideration and applying in software development. This methodology is the best for small and medium businesses but can be applied for large ones as well.

The customer is always right and the task of software developers is to create what he wants even if the customer doesn’t know what he wants. He can change his requirements and web developers have to change the process of development in response. It is possible only with Agile.

Commercial property in the US and the world’s crisis

2010-05-10T03:59:00.000-07:00

Property in the USA has been affected by the consequences of the world’s crisis. Commercial property in the US turned out to be more stable in the pricing policy in comparison with the housing property. But it doesn’t mean that it remains stable.

The only place where commercial property as well as housing property is worth investing money is Florida, especially houses in Hallandale Beach where the number of tourists and residents hasn’t reduced and the prices have decreased only a little. Moreover, some people prefer buying Hollywood Beach condos for sale to be closer to their favourite stars and other celebrities.

Success of an IT project depends on the leader

Buying from heirs

2010-04-15T01:46:00.000-07:00

My cousin’s dad passed away several years ago and she inherited a house about 7 hours away from her present place of residence. It's the Miami property for sale, a very good place if you are young and have no family. What concerns my cousin, she is in her late 30s and she has four children. She prefers quiet neighborhood and completely satisfied with her present house and the area.

Yesterday I talked to her when she returned from one of her numerous trips to / back from Miami Beach. She wasn’t happy about this situation as she has no money to look after the house and to pay all the taxes imposed on her after becoming an owner. She wanted to sell a house as soon as possible. She said that if a buyer offers her a reasonable price, she’d happy to give it away.

So I guess there’s one more type of real estate property in Bal Harbour for sale on the market - inherited houses. Before it was a gift, now it can be a burden, which homeowners would like to get rid of.

At present realtors say that FortLauderdale apartments for sale as well as Hollywood Beach houses will only increase in prices and can be a good way of investing money.

Wedding in Las Vegas

2010-04-09T03:53:00.000-07:00

From the very beginning of its history, Nevada has been known as the state where gambling, prostitution, quick divorce and marriage are allowed.

The Strip, a well-known Las Vegas Boulevard, is full of numerous wedding chapels as the number of couples is growing from year to year. But North Las Vegas is loosing its position as the place for quick no-fault divorces as some other states have also allowed quick-and-easy marriages.

I was surprised to know that all the biggest casinos have special wedding rooms. Moreover, the City marriage office works 7/24 so if you want to marry your second half, for example, at 3 am on Wednesday morning, you’ll have no problems. Go to Las Vegas and here you are.

One more interesting remark, at present people who want to have a holiday all the year round start buying homes for sale in North Las Vegas and the number of foreclosures has decreased considerably.

About two years ago I started working with symfony and found out many new better ways of rapid website development which are much easier and faster. New Symfony 2 has now many new useful options and features. It is faster, more flexible and easy to study and use. It helps website developers to maintain websites with PHP with fewer efforts.

Moreover, now developers can apply agile development principles and concentrate on applicative logic and won’t waste time on writing endless XML configuration files. I guess that’s the biggest advantage of Symfony.

Professionals are very careful about home prices

2010-03-22T11:37:00.000-07:00

The country is full of optimism, but some experts are still very cautious about the future home prices. About 30 % of agents think that the prices are going to fall giving more opportunities to buy a house. At the same time about 50 % claim that the price will remain the same for half a year. And only about 20% consider that the prices will go up. The survey has been conducted to find out the experts opinion about the existing situation with Sunny Isles Beach real estate property for sale. While going the survey the realtors were offered to consider some factors which are likely to influence the price in the country. They are interest rates, the end of the tax credit, unemployment, the number of foreclosures. But in general the experts in Fort Lauderdale apartments are positive today than they were a year ago. But the median home price along the country has changed at all. The survey shows that the disconnect between what buyers and sellers think about the value of the houses. Many buyers think that the house are over-priced and require lowering the price when they want to look for Hollywood Beach condos.

Experts say that the price will never decline in Florida and if you want to get big profit in some years, invest in Miami Beach real estate.

What is special about Symfony 2?

2010-02-19T02:37:00.000-08:00

For the last two years the Symfony community has grown considerably. This framework has won many supporters all over the world. February was marked by a great social event in its history - the Symfony community gathered at the 2nd Symfony Live conference that was held in Paris on February 16-17, 2010.

Developers from more than 30 countries took part in it. Many interesting and innovative issues were raised during the event, the appearance of the Symfony 2 framework being the most remarkable.

What is special about Symfony 2? First of all, the Logger and Cache system were replaced by the equivalents from the Zend Framework. Symfony 2 (as well as Symfony 1) is used for rapid website development and has become very popular. Symfony 2.0 needs no configuration and it is really fast.

The low level architecture of Symfony 2 is the biggest innovation as well as flexibility and speed as the result of the Symfony Dependency Injection Container component, which was largely spoken about at the conference.

Some tips for those who want to invest in real estate

2010-02-19T02:28:00.000-08:00

Firstly, don’t start with big investments. Don’t risk. There are lots of TV programs showing how investors risk big money buying and selling HollywoodBeach real estate for sale and it brings then huge profits in no time. That’s not the case. If you are only starting this business, start with small. Buy inexpensive houses that are sold below the market value. After some time living in it, sell it with a profit.

You can also buy Miami Beachreal estate property for sale and rent it to people for some time. Of course, low-risk investments look not so effective but they give you little headache and stable passive income and no million-dollar debts.

Secondly, you have to examine all homes properly and not once before purchasing – state of the house, prices in the area, neighborhood, etc. Search Sunny Isles Beach real estate investing opportunities in the area. Make yourself familiar with local laws and contracts. The more you know, the better.

15-acre Site in Alabama to House Military Reserve Center

2010-01-15T07:41:00.000-08:00

Considerable quantity of undeveloped land in Alabama leaves plenty of opportunities how to use it with profit. Recently the U.S. Department of Defense has bought a 15.22-acre tract of undeveloped land on Alabama Highway 69 South for a new Armed Forces Reserve Center. This land is situated near Shelton State Community College.

The new building will unite administrative and educational facilities, a library and a learning center, and also physical fitness areas for Army Reserve and National Guard units. What concerning a proprietor of the new center, it will be the Guard.

Some realtors predict that this can result in raising price for real estate in Alabama in general - all public real estate, property for rent and private homes too. If you want to find a good home before this happens - try FSBO, it really works.

Anobody willing to buy stocks of boat selling conmpanies?

I thought that boat selling business is going down Just think about gasoline prices. Merritt estimates it now costs an average $200 for fuel for a day on the water. That includes ''the fuel that it takes to get the boat to the body of water.''

But I found a new start up in that sphere called MrBoating (http://www.mrboating.com). They are growing fast and investing a lot. So, maybe we will one more boats.com? Or maybe better one? Who knows...

NEW ISSUES AND RED HERRING :)

2006-12-26T03:03:00.000-08:00

In a typical new offering, the final prospectus isn't ready until the day the securities are offered. But before that date you can get a "preliminary prospectus" or "red herring"—so named because it carries red lettering warning that the prospectus hasn't yet been cleared by the SEC as meeting disclosure requirements

The red herring will not contain the offering price or the final underwriting arrangements But it will give you a description of the company's business, and financial statements showing just what the company's growth and profitability have been over the last several years It will also tell you something about the management. If the management group is taking the occasion to sell any large percentage of its stock to the public, be particularly wary.

It is a very different case when an established public company is selling additional stock to raise new capital. Here the company and the stock have track records that you can study, and it's not so difficult to make an estimate of what might be a reasonable price for the stock. The offering price has to be close to the current market price, and the underwriters' profit margin will generally be smaller But you still need to be careful. While the SEC has strict rules against promoting any new offering, the securities industry often manages to create an aura of enthusiasm about a company (espacially in software development) when an offering is on the way On the other hand, the knowledge that a large offering is coming may depress the market price of a stock, and there are times when the offering price turns out to have been a bargain

New bond offerings are a different animal altogether. The bond markets are highly professional, and there is nothing glamorous about a new bond offering. Everyone knows that a new A-rated corporate bond will be very similar to all the old A-rated bonds. In fact, to sell the new issue effectively, it is usually priced at a slightly higher "effective yield" than the current market for comparable older bonds—either at a slightly higher interest rate, or a slightly lower dollar price, or both. So for a bond buyer, new issues often offer a slight price advantage.

What is true of corporate bonds applies also to U.S. government and municipal issues. When the Treasury comes to market with a new issue of bonds or notes (a very frequent occurrence), the new issue is priced very close to the market for outstanding (existing) Treasury securities, but the new issue usually carries a slight price concession that makes it a good buy. The same is true of bonds and notes brought to market by state and local governments; if you are a buyer of municipals, these new offerings may provide you with modest price concessions. If the quality is what you want, there's no reason you shouldn't buy them—even if your broker makes a little extra money on the deal.

NEW ISSUE. WHAT FOR?

2006-12-26T03:02:00.000-08:00

To my mind, the new issue process is critical for the economy. It’s important that both old and new companies have the ability to raise additional capital to meet expanding business needs. For you, the individual investor, the area may be a dangerous one. If a privately owned company is “going public” for the fist time by offering securities in the public market, it is usually does so at a time when its earnings have been rising and everything looks particularly rosy. The offering also may come at a time when the general market is optimistic and prices are relatively high. Even experienced investors can have great difficulty in assessing the real value of a new offering under these conditions.

Also, it may be hard for your broker to give you impartial advice. If the brokerage firm is in the underwriting group, or in the “selling group” of dealers that supplements the underwriting group, it has a vested interest in seeing the securities sold. Also, the commissions are likely to be substantially higher than on an ordinary stock. On the other hand, if the stock is a “hot issue” in great demand, it may be sold only through small individual allocations to favored customers (who will benefit if the stock then trades in the open market at a price well above the fixed offering price).

If you are considering buying a new issue, one protective step you can take is to read the prospectus. The prospectus is a legal document describing the company and offering the securities to the public. Unless the offering is a very small one, it can't be made without passing through a registration process with the SEC. The SEC can't vouch for the value of the offering, but it does act to make sure that essential facts about the company and the offering are disclosed in the prospectus.

This requirement of full disclosure was part of the securities laws of the 1930s and has been a great boon to investors and to the securities markets. It works because both the underwriters and the offering companies know that if any material information is omitted or misstated in the prospectus, the way is open to lawsuits from investors who have bought the securities.

NEW ISSUE. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

2006-12-26T03:01:00.000-08:00

When you buy shares of stock on one of the exchanges, you are not buying a “new issue”. In the case of an old established company, the stock may have been issued decades ago, and the company has no direct interest in your trade today, except to register the change in ownership on its books. You have taken over the investment from another investor, and you know that when you are ready to sell, another investor will buy it from you at some price.

New issues are different. You have probably noticed the advertisements in the newspaper financial pages for new issues of stocks or bonds–large advertising which, because of the very tight restrictions on advertising new issues, state virtually nothing except the name of the security, the quantity being offered, and the names of the firms which are “underwriting” the security or bringing it to market.

Sometimes there is only a single underwriter; more often, especially if the offering is a large one, many firms participate in the underwriting group. The underwriters plan and manage the offering. They negotiate with the offering company to arrive at a price arrangement which will be high enough to satisfy the company but low enough to bring in buyers. In the case of untested companies, the underwriters may work for a prearranged fee. In the case of established companies, the underwriters usually take on a risk function by actually buying the securities from the company at a certain price and reoffering them to the public at a slightly higher price; the difference, which is usually between 1% and 7%, is the underwriters’ profit. Usually the underwriters have very carefully sounded out the demand is disappointing–or if the general market takes a turn for the worse while the offering is under way–the underwriters may be left with securities that can’t be sold at the scheduled offering price. In this case the underwriting “syndicate” is dissolved and the underwriters sell the securities for whatever they can get, occasionally at a substantial loss.

HOW DOES THE STOCK EXCHANGE WORK?

2006-12-15T02:08:00.002-08:00

The Exchange is a non-for-profit corporation run by a board of directors. Its member firms are subject to a strict and detailed self-regulatory code. Self-regulation is a matter of self-interest for stock exchange members. It has built public confidence in the L Exchange. It is also required by law. The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) administers the federal securities laws and supervises all securities exchanges in the country. Whenever self regulation doesn't do the job, the SEC is likely to step in directly. The Exchange doesn't buy, sell or own any securities nor does it set stock prices. The Exchange merely is the marketplace where the public, acting through member brokers, can buy and sell at prices set by supply and demand.

It costs money to become an Exchange member. There are about 650 memberships or "seats" on the NYSE, owned by large and small and firms and in some cases by individuals. These seats can be bought and sold; in 1986 the price of a seat averaged around $600,000. Today the price of a seat is more than a million! Before you are permitted to buy a seat you must pass a test that strictly scrutinizes your knowledge of the securities industry as well as a check of experience and character.

Apart from the NYSE and the AMEX there are also "regional" exchanges in the US, of which the best known are the Pacific, Midwest, Boston and Philadelphia exchanges.

There is one more market place in which the volume of common stock trading begins to approach that of the NYSE. It is trading of common stock "over-the-counter" or "OTC" - that is not on any organized exchange. Most securities other than common stocks are traded over-the-counter. For example, the vast market in US Government securities is an over-the-counter market. So is the money market - the market in which all sorts of short-term debt obligations are traded daily in tremendous quantities. Like-wise the market for long- and short-term borrowings by state and local governments. And the bulk of trading in corporate bonds also is accomplished over-the-counter.

While most of the common stocks traded over-the-counter are those of smaller companies, many sizable corporations continue to be found on the "OTC" list, including a large number of banks and insurance companies.

As there is no physical trading floor, over-the-counter trading is accomplished through vast telephone and other electronic networks that link traders as closely as if they were seated in the same room. With the help of computers, price quotations from dealers in Seattle, San Diego, Atlanta and Philadelphia can be flashed on a single screen. Dedicated telephone lines link the more active traders.

Confirmations are delivered electronically. Dealers thousands of miles apart who are complete strangers execute trades in the thousands or even millions of dollars based on thirty seconds of telephone conversation and the knowledge that each is a securities dealer registered with the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), the industry self-regulatory organization that supervises OTC trading. No matter which way market prices move subsequently, each knows that the trade will be honored.

THE STOCK MARKET: IS IT A REAL PUZZLE FOR YOU?

2006-12-15T02:08:00.001-08:00

The stock market. To some, it's a puzzle. To others, it's a source of profit and endless fascination. The stock market is the financial nerve centre of any country. It reflects any change in the economy. It is sensitive to interest rates, inflation and political events. In a very real sense, it has its fingers on the pulse of the entire world.

Taken in its broadest sense, the stock market is also a control centre. It is the market place where businesses and governments come to raise money so that they can continue and expand their operations. It is the market place where giant businesses and institutions come to make and change their financial commitments. The stock market is also a place of individual opportunity.

The phrase "the stock market" means many things. In the narrowest sense, a stock market is a place where stocks are traded - that is bought and sold. The phrase "the stock market" is often used to refer to the biggest an most Important stock market in the world, the New York Stock Exchange, which is as well the oldest in the US. It was founded in 1792. NYSE is located at 11 Wall Street in New York City. It is also known as the Big Board and the Exchange. In the mid-1980s NYSE-listed shares made up approximately 60% of the total shares traded on organized national exchanges in the United States.

AMEX stands for the American Stock Exchange. It has the second biggest volume of trading in the US. Located at 86 Trinity Place in downtown Manhattan, the AMEX was known until 1921 as the Curb Exchange, and it is still referred to as the Crub today. Early traders gathered near Wall Street. Nothing could stop those outdoor brokers. Even in the snow and rain they put up lists of stocks for sale. The gathering place became known as the outdoor curb market, hence the name the Curb. In 1921 the Curb finally moved indoors. For the most part, the stocks and bonds traded on the AMEX are those of small to medium-size companies, as contrasted with the huge companies whose shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
