To build a mobile site or not to build a mobile site; this is a question at the forefront of many a discussion. There is, however, another option: responsive web design. When, why, and how should you go about designing a responsive website?
There are many options to consider when a client asks for a mobile solution for their website, and the suitability of these options depend on the business requirements and budget; it's also important to consider any existing solutions or sites they already have. Creating a responsive website isn't a complete mobile strategy, and won't answer every brief, but, especially if you are starting a website from scratch, you should consider it as a very serious option.
So why would you decide to create a website this way?
Let's talk through the process of creating a responsive website using a hotel website example. This last September, Equator released the new Macdonald Hotels website. Macdonald Hotels are a UK hotel chain with 47 hotels and resorts across the UK and Spain. We created the new site for them that included a new site structure, extensive hotel content, and a new booking engine. Here are the steps we went through and also some considerations you should think about when designing a responsive website.
Research is always a very important stage in the design process so it's worth putting a little extra consideration into the people who will be using different devices. Understanding how these different users may want to use the website on a variety of devices will help you to decide what the priorities are on the project.
Questions like this are starting to become more redundant. In the past we've assumed that mobile users have been task-driven, e.g. I want to get the hotel's address; I want to book something quickly. But now people on any device are just as likely to leisurely browse the Internet as they are to need to complete a task quickly. It is worth considering though, as thinking about users' goals in this way could help you prioritize content for the site, irrelevant of what device the visitor is using.
The logic behind how the styles should change can be a bit hard to define and the magic of it will really come out in the build of the site, but we need a way to start defining the different width stages of the layout. We choose to look at 3 screen widths, a desktop, iPad and iPhone. We felt these covered what our requirements were, but for your project you should consider what widths are important for you to think about—you may even need to look at bigger screen widths for TV internet usage.
At this point of the project you should already the key templates that you'll need to wireframe, but you shouldn't need wireframes for all these templates in the different widths. The main goal here is to help define the logic behind how the CSS will change the look of the page, so focus on pages that have very different layouts. For us we looked at the home page, all the booking process pages, the hotel pages, offer pages as well as some generic layouts. Each of these covered our different column layouts, content types and key functionality.
As you create each wireframe you'll need to think about the columns and how the components within these will adapt as the page width shrinks&mdashe.g. what happens When you have less space? If you have four columns of content? When you change to a three-column width? There should always be ongoing communication between the designer and the front end developer to answer any issues about what you can do with components visually and in the CSS.
Other header components are aligned right and would just shift along as the page width reduced.
Remember when you are styling the navigation to think how it will work as the screen sizes changes. Certain styles, such as using tabs, may be difficult to get to work and look good as the screen width reduces.
Our footer is pretty simple, just think about what content you want and how it will change as the width changes and the columns reduce—this could be as simple as components wrapping underneath each other.
As soon as you have created your first wireframe test it on the relevant device straight away. It's easy to get the image on a simple web page and take a look at how it looks and feels to scroll down. This will let you know early on if your wireframe is working. Testing in this way gave us clues really early on what was and wasn't working. If you look at this wireframe you should quickly see our first issue.
As the user navigated through the site they would only see these first two page elements&mdashthe navigation and the search panel. This means that the user may be unsure if the page has changed, as well as where they actually are on the site. This was solved simply by putting these items in show/hide panels—letting the user get into the content much faster.
Adding the tablet and mobile versions to your user testing process will give you a lot of useful feedback too. Now that your wireframes are created, tested, amended and approved it's time to make them look good for all your screen widths.
It isn't necessary to create visuals for every wireframe. The main objective is to cover all the styles that will be required to create the HTML and CSS. There will be a little bit of a crossover for wireframes and visuals, some styles that will be required for the mobile where there wasn't a need for an initial wireframe.
Styling the page: Think about keeping your styles simpler for your mobile version—what's great about CSS3 is that you don't need lots of images to get great styled effects, but these still take a bit of time to load.
Thinking about font: Make sure your font sizes are going to be readable on each device. They'll have to be much larger on the mobile device to ensure readability.
Also, be prepared for your visuals to change when it gets translated into the build of the site. There always should still be balance between what looks good on a flat visual and what will work when the site is being developed. The final site isn't too far away from our look and feel visuals, take a look here and you can compare with the live site.
Building the HTML and CSS is a challenge all of its own, so I won't discuss this is much detail, but here are a few things to think about.
It's important to get the client behind the idea of using advanced CSS styles, allowing the site styles to degrade as the browser capability does. This lets you keep site loading times low.
Constant communication is required: The project will always go smoother if the team speak to each other, so from both designer and developer it's good to discuss problems and solutions as soon as they turn up.
It's worth taking a look at our front end developer Jamie Boyd's take on the front end development of the Macdonald Hotels website for responsive design.
If you are thinking about convincing your client to have their new site designed and developed in a responsive way, firstly you should consider if it really is the right solution for them, then you'll need to be able to persuade them of the benefits and communicate that it will add more time to the project. But, I do believe that this is how more sites will be developed in the future.
We've all learned so much on this project about developing a responsive website. We were lucky to have a client who was as keen as us to create something new and innovative and from that we've created a site we're all proud of.

The Free Will Baptist Historical Collection came into possession of a rare booklet titled, A Sermon, Preached at the Funeral of Sally Chase. The sermon was preached by "Elder H.D. Buzzell" and is dated July 26, 1818. This booklet is among the older Randall Free-Will Baptist publications.
It is all the more important because Buzzell was one of the early leaders of the Free Will Baptist movement in New England. Consider that 1818 was not even 40 years after the northern movement of the denomination was founded.
The language of our deceased sister was like unto this.
The parting hand, as she did when she took it at the time of marriage.
O! what consolation this must be to this mourning circle!


Tasks are a key part of asynchronous programming in the .NET world -- this includes .NET Core 2.0 which was released last month. Today we'll take a look at consuming an asynchronous method (one that returns a Task) and see how to perform additional work after it has completed (a continuation), how to deal with exceptions, and also how to handle cancellation.
These projects have the completed code.
I'm using the command-line interface (CLI) in a bash terminal along with Visual Studio Code on macOS. But this will also work on Windows 10 using PowerShell and Visual Studio Code. My environment includes (1) the .NET Core 2.0 SDK, (2) Visual Studio Code, and (3) the C# Extension for Visual Studio Code. You can check the Microsoft .NET Core 2.0 announcement for resources on getting the environment set up.
We'll be expanding on the console application that was described in the previous article. We won't be so focused on the .NET Core environment as much as we'll be looking at how to use Task.
The asynchronous method that we're using is in the task-app-core project (a console application with a couple of class files). We'll start by opening the project folder in Visual Studio Code. This is the "TaskApp" folder that we worked with last time.
The important bit here is that "GetAsync()" returns a Task. A Task represents a concurrent operation. It may or may not happen on a separate thread, but we don't normally need to worry about those details.
In this case, we can treat "Task<List<Person>>" as a promise: at some point in the future, we will have a list of Person objects (List<Person>) that we can do something with.
The parameter is a CancellationToken. This allows us to notify the process that we would like to cancel.
We won't look at the insides of this method here. The only thing that we need to know is that this method has an artificial 3 second delay built in. This is so that we can see the asynchronous nature of the method.
This method gets data from a WebAPI service (person-api-core). We'll make sure that that service is running when we're ready to use it.
All of our work today will be done in the Program.cs file of the console application. The GitHub project has the completed code, but we'll be starting from scratch. If you want to follow along, you can get the GitHub files and then remove everything in the Program.cs file.
This will print something to the console and then wait for us to press "Return" before it exits.
If you see something different than this, it may be because the files are not saved. I'm used to Visual Studio automatically saving files whenever I build, so I've spent a bit of time trying to figure out why my code changes aren't working. It's usually because I forgot to save the files before running the application.
Before going any further, let's fire up the service in another terminal window. To do this, we just need to navigate to the folder that contains the WebAPI project ("PersonAPI" from the prior article).
Now we can find our data at http://localhost:9874/api/people.
Now we'll flip back to the console application (make sure you leave the service terminal window open). Let's consume the asynchronous method that we looked at above.
For now, I'll use "var result" to grab the return from the method. We'll give this a better name in just a bit. But before that, let's take a look at the parameter.
The "GetAsync" method needs a CancellationToken parameter, but we don't really care about cancellation at the moment. Rather than passing in a "null" or create a token that we won't use, we can use the static property "CancellationToken.None". This is designed so that we can just ignore cancellation.
But when we type this into our code file, we see that "CancellationToken" does not resolve. In the .NET Core world, we create new class files that are empty; they don't have any "using" statements at the top. So we get to add them ourselves. But the C# Extension in Visual Studio Code will help us out a bit.
The option "using System.Threading" will add the appropriate "using" statement to the top of our file. Since we're mostly starting with empty files, I find myself using this feature quite a bit.
I don't like using "var" to capture the return in this scenario because the return type isn't clear by just looking at the code. We can always hover our mouse over the "var" keyword to see the actual type, but I like the code to be readable without needing the extra assistance. So we'll change this to be more explicit with "Task<List<Person>>" and also by renaming "result" to "peopleTask".
This gives us a better idea of what is going on just by looking at the code.
We can run the application now, but we'll get the same result that we had earlier. We're calling the "GetAsync" method, but we aren't doing anything to get the results out of it.
Task has a "Result" property, and it's really tempting to use it directly. The problem with using it directly is that it may not be populated yet. If we try to access the "Result" property before it is populated, then the current thread will be blocked until it is populated.
How do we get the result without blocking the current thread? We set up a continuation.
"Action" represents a delegate that returns "void". In this case, the delegate takes one parameter of type "Task<List<Person>>". (For more information on Delegates, check out Get Func<>-y: Delegates in .NET.
This method returns "void" and takes "Task<List<Person>>" as a parameter.
"Result" is "List<Person>" in this case. I'm putting it into an explicit variable of that type to help with readability. After we have that, we just loop through the items and output them to the console. The "Person" class has a good "ToString()" method, so we don't have to do any custom formatting for basic output.
Then we just need to use "PrintNames" as the parameter for the "ContinueWith" call.
This is enough to show our "success" path. To run the application, we'll go back to the command line (the one in the "TaskApp" folder).
This console will display "One Moment Please..." and then after 3 seconds, it will list out the names that came from the service.
Just hit "Return" to exit the console application.
The parameter is the exit code. "0" denotes no error, while other values are generally used to show that something went wrong.
The other thing I'd like to do is change the named delegate into a lambda expression. I've talked about lambda expressions many times, so I'll let you refer to those resources. In this case, the lambda expression is more-or-less an inline delegate.
Instead of using "PrintNames" as the parameter for "ContinueWith", we can use a lambda expression. The first part, "task", is the parameter for the delegate. This is the same parameter from "PrintNames", so it is a "Task<List<Person>>" (the compiler knows that so we don't need to type it explicitly). Then we have the lambda operator =>. And after that is the body of our lambda expression.
In this case, we can use the separate delegate or the in-lined lambda expression and get the same results. There are a few advantages to lambdas that are helpful with Task (such as captured variables). The main reason I encourage people to learn how to use lambdas here is because that's what you'll see in the wild when looking at code.
What we have now works -- as long as nothing goes wrong. Once we have something unexpected happen, things go a bit wonky.
We can dig right into the middle and see that the error is "Couldn't connect to server". That makes sense since the server is no longer running.
But notice where we got this error. We actually get this error when we try to access the "Result" property on the Task. When an exception occurs inside Task code, the Task goes into a "faulted" state. When a Task is "faulted", then the "Result" property is invalid. So if we try to look at "Result" on a faulted Task, we'll get the exception instead.
Notice that the exception is an "AggregateException". This is a special exception that can hold other exceptions. If you'd like further details, you can take a look at this article: Task and Await: Basic Exception Handling.
"TaskContinuationsOptions" is an enum. The "OnlyOnRanToCompletion" value means that this continuation will only run if the Task completes successfully. That takes care of our initial problem.
And if we use the debugger in Visual Studio Code, we don't see the exception since we're not doing anything to look for it.
Now we have a continuation that's marked "OnlyOnFaulted". This will only run if the Task is in a faulted state. We can check the "Exception" property of the Task for details, but we'll just print out a "something went wrong" message here. For details on getting into the exception, check the Basic Exception Handling article mentioned above.
Another thing to note is that we're using an exit code of "1". We haven't defined what the different exit codes mean, but as noted, anything other than "0" denotes that something went wrong.
It's hard to tell whether this code is really asynchronous. We saw above that if we pressed "Return" before the data returns that our application would exit. That shows us that things are still processing. But let's add a bit of code to see things more clearly.
This is a bit of a simple demonstration, but it shows that our application is still running and processing input while the asynchronous method is running.
The last thing we want to look at today is how to deal with cancellation. Our asynchronous method is already set up to handle cancellation -- that's what the CancellationToken parameter is for. On the consumer side, we need to be able to request cancellation and also deal with the results.
It's really tempting to simply new up a "CancellationToken" and pass it as a parameter to our method. But that will not work the way we want it to. That's because once we create a CancellationToken manually, there is no way for us to change the state. That's not very useful.
But we can use a "CancellationTokenSource" instead. This is an object manages a cancellation token.
At the top of our "Main" method, we create a new "CancellationTokenSource" object. Then when we call the "GetAsync" method, instead of passing in "CancellationToken.None", we'll pass in the "Token" property of our token source.
This gets the cancellation token to our asynchronous method. Now we need to set the token to a cancelled state.
For our console application, we'll give our user a chance to cancel the operation with the "X" key. We'll look for an "X" with the "ReadKey" method. This won't operate exactly how we would like, but we will clean that up in a little bit.
If someone presses "X" (and it doesn't matter if it is upper case or lower case), then we call the "Cancel()" method on the CancellationTokenSource. This will put the cancellation token into a "cancellation requested" state. From there, it's up to the asynchronous method to figure out how it wants to handle that request.
When a Task is canceled, it is put into a "canceled" state. This is different from the "faulted" state and the "ran to completion" state. With our current code, this means that we need another continuation to deal with cancellation.
This is marked to run "OnlyOnCanceled", and we'll print a message to the output.
With the pieces in place, we can run the application and try out cancellation. After "One Moment Please..." appears, press the "X" key. There will still be a 3 second pause because the asynchronous method doesn't check for cancellation until after the 3 second delay.
This lets us see that cancellation is working, but we can't really get to our "Waiting..." logic anymore. We'll have to do some modification for that.
This replaces the previous "if (ReadKey..)" and "ReadLine"/"WriteLine" code. The endless loop lets us press "X" to cancel, "Q" to quit, and "Return" to get a "Waiting..." message. It's still a bit odd, but it handles the bulk of this application's needs.
And if we do nothing, we'll still get the same results that we saw earlier.
We've implemented quite a bit of functionality here. We're consuming a method asynchronously; we're processing results when it completes, we're dealing with exceptions, and we can cancel the operation before it completes.
You can also look at this code on GitHub: Program.cs. The online code is a little different because I extracted out some separate methods for readability.
As an alternate, we can also create a single continuation and have code that branches based on the state of the Task (success, faulted, canceled). For more information, you can take a look at "Checking IsFaulted, IsCompleted, and TaskStatus".
The good news is that using Task with .NET Core 2.0 is not much different from using it with the full .NET framework. The main challenges with porting over the full-framework code (available here: GitHub: jeremybytes/using-task) have to do with the UI demonstration. It's a bit easier to show some features when we have a desktop UI application, but we can still see the features in a console application.
Showing "await" with a console application is a bit more of a challenge. "Await" works just fine (with C# 7.1 which allows us to have an "async Main()" method), but since the code looks like blocking code, it makes it harder to show the asynchronous interactions. I'm still working on a demonstration for that.
If you want more information on Task and Await, be sure to check out my materials online: I'll Get Back to You: Task, Await, and Asynchronous Methods. This includes articles, code, videos, and much more. And also be on the lookout for my live presentations on the topic. I'm also available for workshops where we spend a full day on the topic of asynchronous programming.
I'm still exploring in the .NET Core 2.0 world. And I'm sure that there will be much more fun to come.
Nice post, sir! I appreciate it!

Wadsworth named publisher of USA Today, 2nd woman in role
published on April 5, 2018 - 12:55 PM
Written by Associated Press
(AP) — Maribel Perez Wadsworth has been named publisher of USA Today, becoming the second woman to hold the post.
Wadsworth is taking up the role immediately following the retirement of John Zidich, USA Today said Thursday.
Wadsworth, 45, is also president of the USA Today Network, which has 109 local media properties. She will remain in that role, where the company said she has driven "investments in emerging technologies to create groundbreaking storytelling, such as the launch of the first weekly news program in virtual reality."
"Maribel's passion for creating great experiences for our audiences as well as her commitment to constant innovation make her the ideal leader for USA Today," said Robert Dickey, president and CEO of Gannett Co., which owns USA Today.
A Cuban-American born in Miami, Wadsworth joined the corporate team of Gannett Co. in 2009, leading digital strategy for the company's local newsrooms. In 2015, she became Gannett's first chief strategy officer.
"I could not be more excited to work with this incredibly talented team," Wadsworth said.
Wadsworth first joined Gannett as an agricultural beat reporter for the Rockford Register Star, where she was the Illinois newspaper's only Spanish-speaking reporter, according to a story in USA Today. She covered the city's migrant worker community and Spanish-speaking entrepreneurs.
"I remember thinking that is part of why I need to be doing what I'm doing, because I can help to bring out some of those important stories that maybe are going uncovered otherwise," Wadsworth said.

Recalling a great movie actor
By HOPE YEN AP Business Writer
TOM MORROW
Back in 1969 when I was a staff writer for The Associated Pressin Phoenix, I was sent out to do a feature story on a movie set inApache Junction, where Jason Robards was filming "The Ballad ofCable Hogue."
That movie has long been forgotten, but not my encounter withthe two-time Oscar-winning actor, who died last week at the age of77.
"I don't give interviews," the gruff-voiced actor snorted whileshaking hands.
So I put away my notebook. He smiled, then invited me to walkaround with him before shooting began. During our stroll, I startedasking questions and he fired back his answers. Along the way, Itold him how I admired his work, and that I especially liked hismost recent film, "Hour of the Gun," where he played Doc Holiday toJames Garner's Wyatt Earp.
"Never saw that one," he replied. "Don't see many movies. Don'thave time."
At the time, he was married to Lauren Bacall. I always wasstruck by how much he resembled her late husband, Humphrey Bogart.Of course, good manners dictated that I not go there during ourconversation.
"He's been asked that before," the movie's publicist later toldme. "You were wise not to bring it up."
We had a grand time chatting away for about an hour during ournon-interview. He bid me farewell as he went onto the set, and Ireturned to the AP Bureau in Phoenix, where I wrote a 20-inchfeature that went out on the national wire. A few weeks later Ireceived a note from the actor.
"Best damned interview I never gave!" was the scrawled message."Good luck, kid. (signed) Jason Robards."
We'll miss his talent. His best work? Anything he was in -- hewas the consummate professional.

The majority of our existing customers expect us to perform some degree of Test and Inspection to their assembled PCBs, sub-assemblies or completed products. Normally this takes the form of a 'Functional Test', i.e. checking the operation of the assembly.
We are happy to accept your propriety test equipment or replicate this as required. Equally well if you wish to provide us with a test specification we can have a customized test kit built for you.
We can also work with you to develop your test strategy Test and Inspection .
In certain situations functional test may not be feasible at the contract manufacturer. For example the assembly may be only one small part of a 'System Integration'.
In these circumstances, 'Flying Probe Test' may be an option. This piece of equipment allows us to probe all connection nodes on the assembled board checking for any component or manufacturing defects.
This may be an attractive solution particularly where products are to be deployed in field locations from which they cannot be recovered.
All our bare printed circuit boards are ATE tested for continuity.


Prakshi: My jewellery making journey began as an 'accidental love' that instantly grew into a compelling passion. I have spent two years in New York City following my dream where I was trained by the best in the industry.
I was exposed to international design aesthetics and sensibilities, and I recognised the need and the market for contemporary, fine jewellery in India. My education and upbringing exposed me to both Indian and Western cultures, which magnificently come through in each of my masterpieces. I am a nature lover and want to discover the beauty embedded in it. Jewellery designing is my passion and I harmonise my love with my passion.
I have always been passionate about jewellery. One day, I decided to channelise this passion into my profession. I managed to create an empire that spreads beauty and joy through exquisite jewellery. It has also been my honour to be awarded the prestigious Best Bridal Jewellery Design award by industry leader Carolee; it was also displayed at the Bloomingdales.
Prakshi: The collection gracefully amalgamates glamour with contemporary style. It comprises stunning rings, neckpieces and earrings; the range embraces the elegant unison of gleaming diamonds and graceful sapphires. The simple and light formats are pleasing to the eye. Blue sapphires enliven the designs and add splendour to each piece.
Prakshi: Jewellery is a part of my life. Therefore I always want to come up with new ideas, inspirations and designs. Also, creativity! I love to challenge my own artistic ability to get better and better with each jewel that I produce.
Describe the ideal woman who you see wearing your designs.
Prakshi: An independent woman! They would have to be women, who want something different and have their own style statement.
What kind of precious stones do you work with the most?
Prakshi: I love diamonds in every form. From uncut, sliced, shallow cut, rose cut or brilliant cut – I just love the refractive properties of diamonds.
Prakshi: I think Sonam Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Rihanna have great style.
Most prized jewellery in your personal wardrobe?
Prakshi: Sometimes people match the colour too much. I feel a bit of contrast helps to break the monotony.
Upcoming trends in jewellery design?
Prakshi: Shoulder dust earrings and big hoops are the next big thing!
Prakshi: Trends come and go and styles evolve. It's important to have pieces of jewellery that are timeless and look chic despite ever-changing fashion.

Victoria Oil & Gas plc: Honestly, We'll Get There Soon
Victoria Oil & Gas is using its producing Cameroon gas field, Logbaba, to create a gas supply network for industry in the Doula region of Cameroon, bypassing the country's unreliable power grid and cutting customer costs (image copyright Victoria Oil & Gas)
Yesterday's final results from Victoria Oil & Gas plc (LON:VOG) didn't really contain any new information that wasn't included in the firm's trading update at the start of October, but I'll recap the details, in case you missed the earlier update (which I failed to cover).
In essence, things are going well, but much, much more slowly than anticipated. The firm has hired several new in-country staff in Cameroon, to try and accelerate its pipeline roll-out and customer hookups, and the statistics suggest it might be succeeding, albeit still slowly.
This remains a big opportunity
I still agree with Victoria's Chairman and interim-CEO Kevin Foo: the opportunity to become an incumbent gas-and-power supplier to many of Cameroon's largest companies (some of which are global names, like SABMiller) is a valuable one. The question is whether the company can pull it off.
On the basis that its plans have recently become far more concrete, detailed and convincing, and should lead to the firm becoming operating cash flow positive in November, I'm going to keep the faith and hold my shares. The balance sheet shows £13m in cash and cash equivalents to fund ongoing capex, which suggests that Foo's claim of an operational burn rate of $1.1m per month is plausible, given this year's heavy capex and February's £23m fundraising.
There's also the faint promise that Victoria's West Medvezhye asset in Siberia may come to something, although it's slightly disappointing that the sale process for West Med, which started in February, has come to nothing as yet (Victoria says that several companies are still working with the West Med data).
One final point of interest is that the forthcoming judgement in the legal dispute with RSM Corporation is due by 31st October. RSM claims a 38% share of Logbaba, but according to Victoria, even if RSM is successful (unlikely) it would have to stump up the equivalent of $85m in costs and outstanding cash costs before it could see any profit from Logbaba.
As any experienced engineer will tell you, it's not surprising that being the first mover in a business like this is turning out to be slower and more expensive than expected.
Victoria's target of selling 12mmscf of gas per day by the end of this year has proved massively optimistic, but the firm does seem to be doing the right things and building an infrastructure which could become highly cash generative.
I remain bullish on VOG, but I wouldn't bet the farm on it.
