Synopsis for "Night People: Part Three - The Burning Pit"
Upon discovering California's murder, the rest of Cardboard City's inhabitants form an angry mob and threaten to kill Webley in revenge. Batman reluctantly protects Webley in exchange for Kadaver's current location, wagering that the Corrosive Man will be headed there. True to his predictions, the Corrosive Man invades and ransacks Webley's apartment, and finds the same address.
Meanwhile, Kadaver calls a meeting with Phil Hobart, the man who had contracted California's death. After trapping Hobart over a pit of quicklime, Kadaver reveals that he had researched California's background, and discovered the vagrant was actually a fast-food tycoon who'd abandoned his wealth in search of enlightenment. Hobart, the tycoon's closest living relative, stands to reap millions in inheritance from his death - and Kadaver, who had only been paid twenty-five thousand for the murder, demands an equal share.
Faced with a slow, painful death, Hobart agrees to Kadaver's terms, but Kadaver's hideout is quickly invaded by both Batman and the Corrosive Man. The latter inflicts several brutal burns on Kadaver, but is stopped by Batman before he can land a killing blow. Batman then knocks the Corrosive Man into Kadaver's quicklime pit, creating a chemical reaction that completely neutralizes Mitchell's acidic body. With all three criminals helpless, Batman calls the police and leaves for home.
On the way back to Wayne Manor, Batman spots one final twist of fate: the cocaine smuggler Thomas Woolf is dead, struck by a car driven by a cocaine-addicted DJ.

Synopsis for "Bonus Book No. 5: For the Love of Ivy"
While on patrol, Batman comes across Dore Warren, a notorious TV personality, who has just crashed his vehicle against a post lamp on the streets and is suffering from some disease. Upon interrogating Warren, Batman learns that Poison Ivy is somehow responsible and when the man dies from the disease, Batman goes looking for Ivy.
Moments later, Batman finds Ivy at the Clinton District along with Simon Buckley, a criminal called "The Grip", as a result of an experiment that gave him mechanical hands. Batman interrogates Ivy and she reveals that Warren had willingly signed a legal form, giving Ivy all his wealth and fortune. However, Ivy didn't expect Warren to die and she explains she's got nothing to do with his death. Batman leaves, but he promises to keep a close eye on Ivy and Buckley's activities.
Ivy and Buckley get ready to attend an art exhibition organized in the name of the recently deceased millionaire, Ellison Ford, a death Ivy is also partially responsible for. Meanwhile, Batman goes to the prison where Ivy was held before her release on parole and learns from the doctor that Ivy is suffering a highly contagious disease, which will end with her death, as her poison immunity has turned against her.
With the information, Batman goes to the art exhibition, hoping to prevent Ivy from spreading her disease and save her as well. As Ivy continues her attempt to lure millionaires into her traps, Batman has to confront Buckley, who has fallen in love with Ivy. Batman explains the situation to Buckley and they agree to stop fighting in order to save Ivy. When the two of them attempt to tell Ivy the truth about her disease, she doesn't listen and attacks Buckley before making her way to the sewers. Batman gives chase and confronts Ivy in the sewers, where she uses a special bomb, which releases several vines that trap Batman. However, the vines die as soon as they touch the water that has also been in contact with Ivy, forcing her to realize the truth of her disease.
Ivy finally accepts Batman's help and she is hospitalized. As she is taken away in an ambulance, Batman inquires the doctor if Ivy would recover and the doctor tells him that the disease can be eradicated and Ivy would very much return to be the same as always; something that Batman doesn't count on.
- "Night People: Part Three - The Burning Pit" is reprinted in Legends of the Dark Knight: Norm Breyfogle Vol. 1 and in Batman: The Dark Knight Detective Vol. 2.
- "For the Love of Ivy" is the fifth insert story part of the Bonus Books series, which ran through a number of titles from April 1988 to February 1989. These stories showcased various young artists and writers without an increase in the price of the comic book. The inserts also included a text page of short paragraphs with brief bios on the new talents.
- This issue marks the debut of the new design of the Batmobile; which would soon become the best known design in the late 80's and early 90s.

5 factors the iPhone XR will realize success exactly where iPhone 5c hit a brick wall
Study number 500 men larger women without any features apart from colorful covers. Commonly considered - Apple challenged at the time - had not excelled perhaps inspire an upgrade perhaps. So, although Apple is called XR Xc, it goes without saying that business will do well again for 5c. Therefore, Apple is 5 reasons the in perfect condition. CEO Steve has experienced the past year, he had been a security specialist - he is virtually promoted - I usually have a plastic "without any excuse" - at a reduced cost level. P>
The smallest iPod with screen was released on September 7, 2006, and lasted 7 years, until it stopped in 2017. A return on the life of the iPod and of the iPhone that has transformed one of the most important. Throughout Apple's history, their continuous merchandise visual style has generally required slight adjustments over time, interspersed with occasional huge changes. However, the new ipod nano tablet for ipad was exclusive because its style has changed, sometimes drastically, with virtually all new versions. The new ipod and iphone nano ipod have come in many forms over the course of its existence. It had been oblong, then much more square, then once again oblong, in addition to a perfect square, until we finally planned oblong once more. It was usually the least expensive replacement for another iPod product or service, but its work brought new benefits. No matter what it seemed to be, the new ipod nano was suggested most often for its compact size. And for a long time of its existence, it has proven to be the best-selling iPod apple mp3 player nano and the world's best-selling mp3 music player. Previously, the best-selling product was the ipod and iphone small, which came out in 2004 and were updated in 2006. This small iPod has experienced the kind of extraordinary success that could guarantee another activity. Not the Apple company. Several September 2006, the Apple company has organized an exclusive audio event. Steve Jobs suggested achievements such as ipod, iphone and i-tunes up to the time, as well as a new Harry Potter-themed iPod and the appearance of Madonna's entire repertoire on i -money. He then announced the "i-tunes mobile phone", the Motorola ROKR. P>

Raspberry pi, the easily programmable 35 dollar computer, has been hugely successful, and has found its way into everything from smart devices to classrooms. Chip is a smaller cheaper alternative with some impressive specs. Their kickstarter has already crashed through their goal.
The concept for Chip came about a little over a year ago, when Next Thing designed an animated GIF camera built using the open-source Raspberry Pi computer (cost for Raspberry Pi: $35). Customers were enthusiastic about the camera, but Next Thing didn't sell that many. At $249, it was just too expensive. "The most expensive part of the camera that we could change was the computer," says Rauchwek. "A computer that powers products like this needs to be under $10, so we started a project to think about how we could do it."

What Is Exploratory Testing?
Exploratory testing is a technique or a method whose aim is to discover the flaws during the process of software development.
This technique of testing is concerned with the qualitative assurance of the software. It is used to discover the anonymous issues during the process of development of software.
Along with this, it is also used to know the issues after the process of software development has completed.
Apart from discovering the flaws, the technique of exploratory testing is also used to get information about the application. In addition, it is utilized in designing the regression and functional tests, which will be executed in the near future.
How is Exploratory Testing done?
The exploratory test is operated by humans, that is, it is done manually. Moreover, the testing can be open-ended. Open-ended testing requires the person who is testing to know what to test and how to test.
Furthermore, the testers of exploratory tests should be able to think and analyze like the users of an application. Also, they should be able to determine how the users of the application will behave.
Generally, exploratory testing is used when the cycle of development of an application is about to reach its termination. This implies that the testing is generally carried when the application is about to end.
This is to help the testers of the application to obtain a precise view of the working of the application in the production. The exploratory testing is done to find out the working of the software and also, to find how the software will deal with the wide range of cases.
The technique of exploratory testing has achieved fame and focus in the present time.
Exploratory testing has been successful in receiving the attention of professionals from the industrial sectors. Exploratory testing gives authority to the tester. However, the authority is linked with great responsibility.
Furthermore, it provides freedom and varied opportunity to the tester of the application to find out and the different spheres in which quality can be enhanced. The tester has the benefit of the show his skills, experience, and knowledge from a distinct point of view.
It helps to improve the system's quality, which is under test.
Exploratory testing renders several advantages, but a minor one. Some of them have been described below:
- Exploratory testing is beneficial as it does not need much preparation. The bugs can be determined at a good pace. The process of exploratory testing does not demand much documentation. The tester just needs to know the objective of the test being conducted to initiate the experiment. Furthermore, the charter of the test recognizes the fields, which combine additional values in the process of testing. Thus, it saves a lot of time.
- The testers can utilize the strategy of deductive analysis as per the outcome of the previous round of analysis. This acts as a guide for the tests, which are to be conducted in the future.
- The technique of exploratory testing does not require finishing a series of tests before they jump to another target. This feature helps in locating the bugs more efficiently. In addition, it accelerated the process of detecting the bug.
- Along with the process of automated tests being conducted, the testers can also learn simultaneously. The testers can derive adequate knowledge from the feature or document to learn more about the behavior of the system. The testers can understand the causes of failure of a production or a test.
- Exploratory testing is beneficial in the changing environment of the production unit. When the product is in a developing stable, which is not stable, the technique of exploratory testing can be used to test the alternating product.
Exploratory testing helps the tester to identify major loopholes in the software and ensures that the application meets the end-users requirements. This test is an approach rather than a technique. This means the subsequent action to be taken is governed by the current path of action.
Challenges Faced in Exploratory Testing
Several hurdles are experienced during exploratory testing. Some of which are:
- Learning the application or software used
- Knowing the cause of failure
- Determining the requirement of tools
- Determining the best test cases for execution based on the application
- Reporting and documentation of exploratory test results are challenging as it does not have any planned cases to compare the outcomes
- Determining the endpoint for exploratory testing is difficult as test cases can be developed on further thinking for execution.
When Should Exploratory Testing Be Used?
Exploratory testing is performed when the application or individual feature of any application is nearing completion. This will help the tester to achieve a clear understanding of the functioning of the application as used by end-users. Exploratory testing is used in scenarios:
- To identify and recognize old and untested bugs in the application
- To understand the working, functionality of the application and how the interface looks like
- To determine new queries and find solutions to it
- To ensure that the application can function to its full capacity in terms of its development
- When the new tester is involved in the project
- When the application needs to be evaluated
- The knowledge gained from performing the exploratory test can be used for preparing test scripts. This can also help in performing tests in a later stage of application development.
Choosing the right testing technique involves considering a number of factors. These factors are external and internal.
The internal factors include:
- The model used: Models used to develop the application plays roles in governing the technique to be used.
- Testers experience and knowledge: This is another factor that plays an important role. The knowledge the tester has about the system and the technique to be used will have a significant influence on the tests performed on the software or application.
- Analogous defects: Having an understanding of the similar types of faults will help in the quick understanding of the bug problems in the application.
- Documentation: The availability of existing reports and also the reliability of the information (mainly the availability of the latest information) will have an impact on the choice of testing technique. The way the information has been documented will also have an influence on the choice of techniques.
- Test objective: The tester can make use of cases as a sensible approach if the test objective is to analyze whether the test can cope with the basic operational task. A rigorous and detailed technique that has to be used in the test objective requires thorough testing.
External factors that influence the choice of testing techniques are:
- Type of system used
- Risk assessment: The need for thorough and formal testing is higher when the risk is greater.
- Regulatory requirement: This depends on the standards or guidelines laid by some industries and in turn governs the technique to be used.
- Budget and duration of the project. This is a crucial factor. As the time allotted for testing is more, the tester can perform follow an elaborate testing technique to get the best out of the testing. When there is a time constraint, the tester will be forced to cut short the testing process. Along with duration, the budget allotted will also play an important role.
Exploratory testing is a simultaneous process of learning, designing a test, and execution of the test process.
This testing emphasizes the tester's adaptability and learning. Exploratory testing is all about finding, investigating, and learning.
Exploratory testing helps the tester identify major faults in the application quickly. Therefore, it helps in developing the application in such a way to meets the requirements of end-users.
This testing method is cognitively structured and significantly manageable.
How To Do The Test?
The depth of the exploratory test carried out by the tester is very difficult to interpret in words. However, quantification of work done and time spent has to be provided in metrics and progress reports to the team and the managers.
The solution to this is the Session-based testing which manages and tracks the work carried out on a timely basis approach.
There are 5 stages in session-based test management (SBTM) which are:
Create and classify bugs based on Taxonomy
This stage requires the tester to categorize the types of faults (or bugs) found in past projects of the test application. An in-depth analysis of the root cause of the fault has to be carried out. After analyzing, the tester has to find the risks and come up with ideas to test the application.
Test Charter
A test charter should be able to suggest what and how to test the application along with what needs to be looked into. In exploratory testing, the tester will not have pre-scripted test criteria to follow.
These criteria are developed in real-time as the testing is carried out. The tester can note down ideas as these are the starting point of the test. Test charter can help in determining the way the system can be used by the end-user.
In this stage of the session, a pair of testers work together on the application for not less than 90 minutes.
Basically, there should not be any hindrance to time by mails, phone, or messages in those 90 minutes. This session can be extended as well as reduced to 45 minutes.
The aim of this session is to encourage the testers to act to the response from the system on time to get correct outcomes.
Result analysis
In this stage, the tester will be able to provide an evaluation of the defects and analysis of the areas covered. The tester will also be able to produce the learning from the test which can help in future testing.
This stage involves the cross-checking of the results. The output results produced by the tester are compiled and compared with the charter. This also involves checking the need for any further testing.
Points to consider during exploratory test execution:
- The tester should have a clear idea of the mission of testing the application
- All the questions raised during the testing has to be tracked
- Always make notes of what needs to be tested and why it has to be done. Also makes assessments on the quality of products
- For effective testing, it is better to work in pairs
- Make sure to test more as the chances of executing the right test cases are high
The tester should also monitor the following during exploratory testing
- Coverage of test: The tester should take notes on the test case coverage and also ensure the improvement of the software quality
- Risks to be covered: The risks to be assessed in the application have to be noted along with knowing the important ones to be considered.
- Maintain a test execution log: The test execution logs should be recorded for the purpose of future use and documentation.
- Queries: All the issues and queries on the system has to be taken note
Advantages Of Exploratory Testing
A larger area covered
In exploratory testing, the test is conducted all over the area from the starting to the end. Hence it covers a greater amount of area in less time, compared to other kinds of testing.
After testing, test execution is done simultaneously in the same area.
No pre-planning or preparation
No preplanning is needed in case of exploratory testing as there is no specific documentation or instructions to follow. Also, the preparation time is very little or no preparation at all.
That's why it saves more time & is done more efficiently due to fewer preparation requirements.
Less time required
As we already got from the above statements, exploratory testing requires a very little amount of time. It is very much lesser than the scripted testing, which is a more time-consuming process.
The less time of exploratory testing makes it a more efficient process, which results in a better product.
Intellectual development
The exploratory testing is solely done by an individual tester, whose knowledge, and experience is all that needed for the test to be conducted. The success of the testing depends on the degree of on-spot cognitive thinking of the tester.
Therefore, during the test, this boosts the tester's mind to a higher level. Also, he tries his own skills in this platform of software testing, designing & executing.
This develops a person's thinking capabilities, exercises his mind & trains him for the upcoming events. The tester gets better ideas in the field of software, which helps him make better decisions & creative approaches in software applications.
It results in the overall intellectual development of the tester, which further results in the development of future applications.
More bug detection
Unlike scripted testing, exploratory testing works all over the area & watches over every little corner for the mistakes & defects.
The defects are in the form of bugs, which are detected, and analyzed, by the tester. It is followed by thinking of the replacement solution, and execution. The design testing of the software generates an idea in the tester's mind that if the test-area is completely correct or there are any mistakes.
If the tester's mind detects any mistakes or bugs, the correction execution is done simultaneously. In this way, the bigger test area covers the detection & correction of all the parts in a consecutive manner, which is different as well as better than the scripted one.
In scripted testing, due to the patterned structure of study & correction, the tester misses most of the parts, which result in improper final work product.
Hence, in bug finding, the exploratory testing comes in handy and does the work more efficiently, which is one of the main advantages of it.
Unlike pre-scripted testing, exploratory testing requires the person to read, think, report and learn the testing application effectively and rigorously.
Lesser steps
Another advantage is that in this kind of testing, hardly two to three steps are there, namely a tester, test ideas & the final product.
It decreases time as well as increases the efficiency of the work. Lesser steps mean lesser confusion, a decreased chance of being tangled in steps and making mistakes or skipping some parts.
If we compare the exploratory testing with the scripted one, we can easily notice the advantages in the time management & less confusing fields.
The involvement of several steps in scripted testing reduces to a few in the exploratory which makes it relevant in the software testing field.
No limitations & restrictions
There is no documentation or pre-planned script provided in case of exploratory testing. Therefore, there is no certain restriction or limitation about sticking to the script or to a planned way. The tester works freely on the application and uses his own knowledge and skills fully to achieve the goal. It helps to get the work done in an easier & better way.
Disadvantages of Exploratory Testing
Difficulty to find mistakes
The exploratory testing does not have any specific standard for the correction of the mistakes. It solely depends on the professionalism & experience of the tester itself.
This kind of situation results in difficulty to find mistakes & bugs in the software application, because the tester may not get all the mistakes perfectly at once.
Sometimes some mistakes get skipped by the tester further resulting in a bugged product.
Chances of mistake
Due to some improper skills of a tester, a correct thing can seem incorrect to him. In this situation, the tester tries to correct or modify the already corrected parts of the application.
This kind of mistakes totally depends on the knowledge of the tester if what he has learned is right or wrong.
Needs in-depth application knowledge
Ignorance of the tester causes failure of exploratory testing as it needs skillful testers to get conducted properly. Therefore, a very professional & skillful writer is the one who can be perfect for this job.
To make the most out of it, an exploratory tester needs to have in-depth knowledge about the software application he is working on, or else there are higher chances of finding mistakes in the final product.
So even if this testing is considered less hardworking & less time-consuming, the drawback is that it takes more time for a tester to get the in-depth knowledge prior to the test.
No prior review or standards
One of the main drawbacks of exploratory testing is that there is no prior review or any standards, which can help to review the application. It makes the task more difficult for the tester in this way that he has to view, then review using his own knowledge completely.
This does not provide any documentation or script by which the tester can know if he is going the right way or not. No provision of proper script or instruction makes the tester doubt his knowledge & decisions, which results in mistakes in the final product.
Unavailability of test-cases
Other than the unavailability of certain documentation, scripts, or instructions, there is also no availability of past test-cases. Every project in exploratory testing is different from each other. They come with different bugs and different software designs, which is all-new for the tester.
This is one of the main disadvantages of exploratory testing, that the tester needs to do it all alone only by the knowledge he has, without any test cases for reference.
In addition, one perfectly done exploratory case cannot be used as a future reference too.
Difficulties in time-management
It is also one of the disadvantages, which one can stick to a particularly problematic area of an application for so long, that other area does not get that much of time to get analyzed.
Exploratory testing is mainly done where there is not enough time or there is a certain time limit for completion of the task.
In those cases, time-management can be very difficult at times which results in an improperly analyzed final product.
Role Of Exploratory Testing In Agile Projects
Exploratory testing is concerned about the discovery, study, and learning about the bugs in the process of software development.
This technique does not limit the tester to the given set of commands. Exploratory testing is a crucial happening in the agile atmosphere. It helps the testers to cope with the rapid speed of development of the projects of agile software.
First, let us get comfortable with the methodology of agile before diving into the process.
The methodology of agile focuses on proper planning, quick delivery, and progressive developments. The methodology aims at delivering rapid responses to changes. As the demand for updates in the software has increased, the need for rapid development and quick delivery has also increased.
In the methodology of agile, the software is dispatched in small units. Each individual unit goes through a process of planning, estimation, development, integration, testing, and release.
Due to the continued dispatching, the automation of the test becomes mandatory because the developers require a quick response to the well-being of the application. These checks act as tests for regression and make sure that the software does not regress.
The exploratory testing goes hand-in-hand with the automation of the test. While the automated tests check for the issues in regression, the exploratory testing lays emphasis on new characters, which are developed.
Exploratory testing allows the testers to make themselves familiar with the application and domain in an agile surrounding. The testing helps the tester to check each unit separately. Thus, the understanding of the software improves and the testers become more proficient.
The testing consists of two major spheres. On one side, the programming is supported, whereas, the other side evaluates the product. On the former side, writing of the units of code is performed. Furthermore, on the other side, the final product is checked and evaluated.
The skilled exploratory testers who work on the agile projects utilize the strategy of exploratory testing to inform the team about the flaws in the product. The testing can be conducted without a structure and freestyle.
The exploratory testing in agile environments helps the tester to locate the areas, which have high risks. The exploratory testing and agile methodology can be combined as an excellent approach for testing.
Exploratory Testing Technique
Exploratory testing is described as finding, investigating and studying. The testing is concerned about the liberty and responsibility of the person who is testing to judge the system while it is being executed.
The cases for testing are not built beforehand. The technique of exploratory testing is made to fulfill the requirements and they render the need for exploration during the course of testing.
The technique of exploratory testing includes investigation and improves the design.. The process of the exploratory technique is structured and continuous.
The technique of exploratory testing demands less amount of planning. The technique is based more on execution. The process of exploratory testing does the base work and makes a path for the automation of the test.
In the process, the testers of the application are required to work on the application and explore the bugs within the system. The planning of the technique requires the advancement of the charter of the test.
It defines and decides the objective of the approach. Along with the execution of the test, documentation of the main elements in the process of the test is also done.
As the technique of exploratory testing is a rapid and process which is quick in adapting the changes within the environment, it is used in agile environments. Along with this, the testers gain the freedom and flexibility to determine the bugs.
Types Of Exploratory Testing
Exploratory testing can be done in several ways. Scenario-based exploratory testing, Strategy based exploratory testing, and Freestyle exploratory testing are some of the types of exploratory testing.
Scenario-based exploratory testing
The scenario testing is a method of testing the software, which takes into consideration the scenarios for performing the tests.
The scenarios can be hypothetical stories or situations, which assist the tester to fix a challenging situation. The tester can understand and evaluate the scenario in order to work on the system of the test.
In an ideal situation, the test is a challenging, complex, and credible story whose solution is easy to comprehend. The cases of tests differ from that of scenario-based cases of the test. The test cases have a single case under consideration; whereas, the scenario-based test cases cover a vast range of tests.
In scenario-based exploratory testing, the scenarios can be the actual scenario of the user, scenarios of the test or that end-to-end. After the primary testing has been performed, the testers can insert the modifications based on their observations and learning.
Strategy based exploratory testing
In the strategy based exploratory testing, the approach of the test is focused. This kind of testing lays emphasis on the objective of the cycle of development of the software.
The strategy based exploratory testing is built to throw light on the major issues, which are involved in the process of testing. This kind of testing focuses on the objectives and tactics of testing advanced functions.
The estimated time and resources which are needed for the project and the environment of testing is also given importance. The tactics of the test manifest the mitigation of the risks from the stakeholders to the levels of the test. In addition, it describes the kinds of tests, which are needed to be performed, and the criteria of their exit and entry.
The design of the development documents forms the basis of the strategy for these tests. Primarily the design of documents of the system is used and the design based on the concept can be utilized occasionally.
The design of the documents demonstrates the software's functionality to be utilized in the latest release. For all the stages of design's development, a related strategy of the test has to be built in order to test the latest features of the sets.
Freestyle exploratory testing
The freestyle kind of exploratory testing does not follow any rules or regulations. They do not hold themselves accountable for the purpose of any kind of coverage.
Moreover, freestyle kind of exploratory testing is beneficial when the user needs to get familiar with the application at a good pace.
When the user needs to evaluate the work done by the testers, freestyle exploratory testing is used. Furthermore, the user can investigate the flaws and conduct a quick survey with the help of freestyle testing.
Exploratory Testing Tools
Exploratory testing tools are utilized for storing information and data. This stored information determines the process of testing and plans and the activities during the process of testing.
The tools of exploratory testing render the idea of shaping the process of testing and enable the analysis of data at a good speed.
The tools of testing allow the user to communicate across several projects of the team. The testing tool consists of everything which is needed to perform the task and eliminates the extra efforts required to install several applications.
Session tester
Session tester is an exploratory testing tool for managing and recording Session-Based Testing.
Session tester helps the users to have a command over the management and metrics of the process within the test.
Session tester forms the structure for the basic major improvements in the sphere of detection of error and productivity.
Session testers prove themselves beneficial when the formal needs are dynamic in nature or else when there is an absence of formal needs.
Test studio
Test studio makes the process of exploratory testing effortless and less time-consuming. Along with this, Test studio increases the efficiency in the exploratory testing procedure.
Test studio is an in-browser kind of extension, which is very easy to be used. The extension makes it possible for the user to send his ideas and respond to the members of the team. The user can report about the bugs and flaws of the system directly from the application, can also attach annotations and screenshots of the issues.
Furthermore, the user can share his opinions through electronic mail. Also, the user can send a word documented or PDF containing the description of issues within the system. Test studio supports all the main browsers.
Qtest explorer
qTest Explorer records the interaction of the user with the application. Then, the explorer utilizes the recorded information to create the documents automatically. These documents consist of details about the communication amidst the application and the user.
qTest Explorer supports a variety of technologies and applications on the web and the apps of the desktop.
qTest Explorer tracks all the steps during the process of execution of the test. The tools enable the users to prepare notes and capture the screen while the test is being carried.
Along with this, helps the users to prepare and submit the documents containing the records of defects in a detailed and precise manner to the tools, which detect the defects.
qTest Explorer creates session reports, which fulfill the requirements of the testing based on the session. and records the tests for their analysis.

Home Based Businesses
May I have a business in my home?
Under certain conditions you may operate a home based business on your residentially zoned property.
What sort of conditions do I need to meet?
The most important condition is that your business doesn't impair the residential character of your property. Your business must be conducted in such a way that a neighbor or passer-by wouldn't be able to tell that you're conducting a business there.
What other restrictions will there be on my business?
If you have a minor home based business, you must live in the house where the business is located and you can't have more than one non-resident employed on the premises. The area devoted to the business can't exceed 30% of the area of the main dwelling. The use and storage of any equipment, hazardous materials or production of noise or electrical interference can't be beyond what is normal for a single family home. More than routine mail or package delivery is also not allowed.
If you have trailer associated with the business, it must be stored in a side or rear yard, observing the setback requirements of your zoning districts and generally not be visible from the street. You can park one commercial vehicle with a gross vehicle weight of up to 14,000 pounds on the property. A sign of up to two square feet is also permitted.
Minor home businesses are permitted by right do not require a zoning permit.
A major home based business requires the approval of a special permit by the Planning and Zoning Commission. In addition to the requirements for a minor home based business can have no more than three non-residents on the premises. The business must be in a conforming structure on a conforming lot. The site plan must show parking, loading and landscaped areas and evidence of adequate sewer and water service must be shown. No more than one commercial vehicle may be parked on any R1 or R2 zoned lot.
Can I operate a bed and breakfast?
A bed and breakfast is considered a major home based business and requires approval of a special permit by the Zoning Commission. The owner of the lot and the business must live on the premises. All rented rooms must be accessed from the interior of the house and there can be no cooking facilities in any of the rented rooms. The structure must meet the minimum area and dimensional requirements of the zoning district in which it is located.
Can I have day care in my home?
A family day care home (up to 6 clients) operated by the resident must be licensed under the provisions of the Connecticut General Statutes.
A group day care home (more than 6 clients) licensed by the General Statutes requires a zoning permit issued by staff. There must be at least 10,000 contiguous square feet of land area available on the lot. No recreation areas or playground equipment can be located within the required setbacks for the lot and a buffer has to be provided between the recreation area and adjacent residential properties. You must also provide one parking space for every four clients and one space per employee or caregiver.
What happens after I submit my application for a major home occupation?
Your application will be placed on the Zoning Commission's monthly agenda and a public hearing will be scheduled. If the Commission approves the special permit, it may place reasonable restrictions concerning lighting, hours of operation and other conditions that would lessen the business' impact on surrounding properties. This process may take about two months.

Armed To The Feet
Greetings troopers of the 82nd Trendliest Infantry division! General Trendkopf here demanding you put down those pistols, beat your swords into plowshares and replace those revolvers with roses. All of those sophisticated modes of weaponry are decidedly out of date. The friendly, trendy new way to get your battle on and your point across is not to gear up with guns, but to unlace your loafers and let 'em fly.
Ever since the events of this past week, when Iraqi journalist Muntadhar al-Zeidi attempted the first Presidential shoe-sassination, military defense contractors at Halliburton have been hard at work with the economically-minded pump producers at Payless, developing the ultimate surface-to-groin missile that will surely put the United States ahead in the foot race.
The United States isn't the only national superpower anxious to dub itself a Shoe-per power. China and India are right up there with over a billion pairs of shoes each aimed in the general direction of almost every country in the world. The United States' standing as a world leader is secure though, thanks in large part to a fleet female fighting force each brandishing on average up to 14 pairs of the trendly new weapon in a variety of different styles and colors that are designed to compliment a variety of different regulation fatigues and battle situations.
The fact that President Bush avoided being struck by both of al-Zeidi's size 10's is a big reason for World War III not breaking out. Also, the Italian economy has seen quite a boost from the event as the world's governments have sought out the finest in Italian leather footwear from likes of Salvatore Ferragamo and Prada to equip their armies.
While the World may not yet be embroiled in a melee of moccasins, the irate Iraqi has inspired a few "Shoe d'etats" in 3rd world countries like Sri Lanka and The Island of Cuervo Nation. The new method of warfare has also prompted constitutional enthusiast Ron Paul to lobby for a change in the 2nd amendment to include the right to bear dock-siders.
The dramatic shift in tensions has created a new world order that foreign relations experts predict could result in increased violence. On the upside, the death toll is likely to reduce 85%, but there might still be a lot of black and blue marks and scuffed up wing tips. We'll take that over a high death toll any day. So the next time you want to take your guns to town, take a look down and realize that you're armed to the feet and let the friendly, trendy battle begin.
The Accidental Terrorist
Odds are if you're checking out this here site you're on the hunt for something utterly friendly and trendy. You may also be wondering if there are trends you might have the good fortune to discover on your own. It would be easy for us to say no so that you might continue being absolutely dependant on us for finding out just what in the world is hop and hot, but the truth is there are some hot new fads you can stumble upon all by your self…the latest of which is being accidentally and irresponsibly labeled a "terrorist."
While being accidentally labeled a terrorist goes as far back as the 1996 Olympics when Richard Jewell "bombed" a perfectly good Olympic venue all in the name of drawing the attention away from the fact that a Bulgarian, not an American participant captured three gold medals in weighlifting…the resurgence in the trend can be credited to the heinous attacks of September 11th. Since the government's irresponsible handling of the events leading to an actual terrorist attack, they've stepped up efforts to compensate for the fact that they're not doing enough for homeland security by making sure all bars have Toby Keith albums on their jukebox. Additionaly, the government has made efforts to raise public paranoia levels with the "if you see a brown person doing something, say something" slogan and their special hotline for reporting talkative cab drivers.
Rachael Ray Threatens Freedom With A Dynamite Coolatta
However, it's not only poor brown people who've had the fortune of participating in this latest trend; Celebrities are also at the forefront of this fad. America's Sweetest Pitchperson Rachael Ray was sent to Abu Ghraib after dressing up like Yasser Arafat in a Dunkin' Donuts ad where she was then subject to the trendly practice of waterboarding. Even Presidential frontrunner Barack Obama and his wife aren't immune to trendliness. The two were placed under heavy scrutiny after engaging in the "Al Qaeda Fist Bump" after a lively speech about overthrowing the current Republican regime.
The Friction from Said Fist Bump Usually Creates Explosions of Epic Proportions
Don't be trend-orists…If the two most popular people in the greatest nation in the world are getting their accidental terrorism on…what are you waiting for? Shouldn't you be arousing suspicion by leaving a suspicious package on the train that just so happens to look like your pocket book or maybe letting your oven burner run a bit before lighting a match to create a huge gas explosion in your house? Either of those would be da bomb, and totally trendly ways to arouse suspicion that you are in fact a terrorist.

On December 9, 2015, I attended the annual Christmas display at the Estate. See my previous blog for more photos. I tried not to repeat pictures. On a personal note, I think the 2015 display was much more beautiful, I think because of the use of flowers.
|Front entrance to the Crane Estate at Castle Hill, Ipswich, MA.
Photo taken in the summer.
From Wikipedia, "Castle Hill refers to either a 165-acre (67 ha) drumlin surrounded by sea and salt marsh or to the mansion that sits on the hill. Both are part of the 2,100-acre (850 ha) Crane Estate located on Argilla Road in Ipswich, Massachusetts. The former summer home of Mr. and Mrs. Richard T. Crane, Jr., the estate includes a historic mansion, 21 outbuildings, and designed landscapes overlooking Ipswich Bay, on the seacoast off Route 1, north of Boston. Its name derives from a promontory in Ipswich, Suffolk, England, whence many early Massachusetts Bay Colony settlers immigrated, and predates the Crane mansion."
Kitchen, a nice place to visit when you are treated to cider and cookies.
I patiently waited, and they all left the dining room.
Second floor is shown above.
The gallery, the long hall room, is where you register as you enter the house.

This week, the children were hunting for woodland colours. They were fabulous at this! They matched up their colour swatches to natural objects as we walked through the woods to our log circle, then later they worked together in teams to fill an egg box with a range of different greens or browns, yellows, oranges or reds.
We were also busy this week making creations with ropes and learning to use the bow saw to cut small wood cookies…we're hoping to use these soon to make something for our families.

Here's a quick look at all 5 covers available for THE CAPE MINISERIES #1. Art by Nelson Daniel, Zach Howard, and Gabriel Rodriguez.
July 26, 2011
I swear to god. Says it right there, doesn't it? (sorry about the crap picture, I took it with my phone in a dimly lit comic book shop)
The first issue of THE CAPE miniseries hits shelves tomorrow. I know a lot of people have been waiting for this (myself included) for a long time. I appreciate you giving it a try, and I'd love to hear what you think about it.
I'd like to congratulate IDW Publishing for being the big winner at the Eisner Awards last Friday night. These guys care a ton about comics and are always looking for ways to forward the medium. While I didn't end up winning for best single issue, there's a certain satisfaction in being able to tell my peers that I lost to Mike Mignola and Richard Corben…and to people I know who don't read comics, I can always just say "The guy who created Hellboy, and the guy who drew the cover for Meatloaf's BAT OUT OF HELL."
Also, I'm sure if you're reading THE CAPE you're probably also reading LOCKE & KEY, so I don't need to tell you how deserving Joe Hill is of his Best Writer Eisner. I can count on one hand the guys in comics who I consider to be master storytellers, and Joe would come in somewhere between my thumb and middle finger.
As I write this, there's a lot of work being done on the next 3 issues of THE CAPE. Every day I'm seeing new pages from Zach and Nelson that are just stunning, and I'm busy tying up the final issue of the series. It feels great to be part of a team that you know has your back, and is giving this project everything they have. I think that passion shows in every panel. I think you will, too.
Holiday Road
July 5, 2011
My holiday weekend ended today 4:45 AM when I reluctantly dragged myself out of bed in Newport and started my long and arduous journey back to Brockton. I hope none of you lost fingers in alcohol/fireworks related accidents yesterday. If you did, well, I hope it wasn't on your "special" hand…I hear that kind of adjustment can be difficult. (Not to mention turning the pages of a comic with your feet or nose would probably suck.)
Speaking of comic books: The first issue of THE CAPE miniseries is just a few weeks away. I can't wait for everyone to get their hopefully-five-fingered hands on this, and to read reactions to Eric's continuing naughtiness. If you haven't seen it, here's the cover for issue 1:
And here's a picture I took of a seagull corpse baking in the sun on a beach in southern Rhode Island. You're welcome.
Happy 4th of July.

Fortunately, we do have information about some specific ingredients that are used in the Blood Balance Formula. Let's discuss some of these below:
– Juniper Berry Extract – This fruit extract is a substance that contains antioxidants. It has many functions including the detoxification of the body, protection from free radicals, dealing with hypertension, improving heart health, etc.
– Vitamin E – This is another ingredient that has antioxidant, which can help in reducing inflammation, radical damage, and several other problems.
– Biotin – Along with improving our hair, skin, and nails, this ingredient can help in the healing process for nerves, which leads to reduced chronic pain in the joints and other areas. Incidentally, it also helps to reduce blood sugar levels, hence helping us out with diabetes.
– Magnesium – This is a necessary nutrient for everyday health, as it helps in enhancing energy levels and heart health.
– Chromium – This facilitates fat burning and hence can help out with obesity issues. It does this by regulating glucose levels in our blood and increasing our energy in order to help us burn more calories.
Zinc – This is yet another important nutrient that we should have in our everyday diet. This is because zinc enhances protein synthesis, which leads to proper tissue repair and other healing processes.
– Vanadium – This is a mineral that can help to lower insulin levels in our body. This would hopefully clear up any insulin resistance issues, which are usually the main cause of diabetes.

Managing safety
Managing safety is the best way to prevent injuries in your workplace.
It involves talking with your workers to make your workplace and work practices both safe and efficient. You need to look for situations that have the potential to cause harm or damage – and do something to prevent incidents from happening.
Over the past four years more than 400,000 workers were injured in NSW workplaces. More than 13,500 were permanently disabled and 312 died.
This short video explains the difference between hazards and risks in the workplace.
Must do's
There are specific laws about managing the risks to the health and safety of everyone in the workplace. Here we summarise those laws and give you some practical tips.
Identify safety risks
Ask your workers about problems they may have encountered, like near misses, aches and pains, and anything else which may concern them about their safety.
Some ways to identify any potential safety problems include:
- taking regular walks around the workplace
- looking how plant and equipment are used
- finding out what chemicals are around and what they are used for
- looking out for unsafe work practices
- examining the general state of housekeeping.
You should also:
- analyse incident reports, worker complaints, reasons for sick leave and the like
- get safety data sheets and instruction manuals from manufacturers and suppliers
- get information from industry associations, unions and us.
Get rid of the problems
The best way to have an injury-free workplace is to get rid of potential safety problems, ideally at the design or planning stage.
If you can't eliminate the problem completely, you need to minimise the risk to your staff.
Limit the impact of the problem
Do the best you can to do one or more of the following:
- Substitute the problem with something safer – eg replace solvent-based paints with water-based ones.
- Isolate the problem from people – eg install a guard to prevent access to moving parts on a machine.
- Use engineering controls – eg use springs to self-close gates.
Minimise any remaining risk with administrative controls - eg install warning signs.
If a risk still remains, use personal protective equipment – eg ear muffs, face masks, hard hats.
A combination of controls often works well.
Review and revise controls
You must review your risk control measures:
- when the control measure is not working
- before workplace layout or practices are changed
- if a new problem is found
- if consultation shows a review is necessary
- if a health and safety representative requests it.
More information
For the specific laws about managing safety, see clauses 32 - 38 of the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2017.
There are also general work health and safety laws that will apply to you in any situation, including when managing safety.
For general information about managing risks and keeping records, see the code of practice on how to manage work health and safety risks. It includes a sample risk register suitable for any workplace, and some interesting case studies.

It seems that all of the attention has turn to the blossoming CBD market and the potential growth of this industry. The CBD market continues to exceed the expectations of even the industry's biggest critics. Between mid 2017 and mid 2018, the U.S. hemp-derived market practically doubled in size. Now that President Donald Trump has signed the Farm Bill 2018 into law, expectations are that the market will dramatically increase in size over the next five years.
Why is the Farm Bill so important?
The massive $867 million Farm Bill contains a wide variety of far reaching legislative measures to include expanded farm subsidies, SNAP provisions and permanent funding for farmers markets. Most importantly, the bill legalizes production and sale of hemp at a federal level. Industrial hemp is used to manufacture cannabidiol, more commonly referred to as CBD. Until today, the legality of CBD was ambiguous at best. The passage of the Farm Bill essentially removes hemp-derived CBD from the DEA's list of controlled substances and provides the states with the power and the authority to decide how CBD will be sold. States now have the ability to individually write legislation to include not allowing CBD sales at all.
Due to the amount of attention that surrounds the CBD market and the financial gains that each state will potentially benefit from, it is hard to imagine that a state would chose to pass on this opportunity. However, each state will now need to decide the level of regulation that will be applied to the sale of CBD or chose to prohibit sales altogether.
CBD is responsible for almost all of the current $800 million U.S. hemp market with projections suggesting that the market will sit just under $3 billion in sales by 2021. The legalization of American hemp production could result in tripling domestic cultivation in less than a year. In addition to opening up a vast new market that is expected to do wonders for the economy, CBD continues to show promise with the potential to provide millions of Americans the relief that they are so desperately looking for.

Around 40 Labour Party activists attended Southampton Momentum's weekend school from 19-21 May.
The event included plenary discussions on perspectives for Momentum and Labour, as well as sessions focused on planning local activity.
Four external speakers led workshops, on the history of the Labour Party; socialist-feminism and building a working-class women's movement; understanding and combating antisemitism on the left; and housing struggles.
Attendees included a diverse range of comrades, from veteran activists with long histories on the far left through to new, young activists recently mobilised into Labour and Momentum by the Corbyn surge.
The event took place in a hotel in the nearby city of Bournemouth, and had a sociable and family atmosphere.
Many members brought their children, and there were social activities in the evenings.
Southampton Momentum shows how Momentum groups can combine local campaigning, organising in local Labour Parties, and social events with a real commitment to political education and a serious attitude to discussing big ideas and labour-movement history.
Their school can be a model for other Momentum groups around the country.

Many people plan a scuba trip to Thailand because Diving in Thailand is a absolutely awesome. A question often asked is "where is the best diving in thailand?" Every dive site is different and the array of marine life is impressive!
There are also hundreds of dive centres just waiting to help you explore the underwater world, but with so many locations to choose from, how do you know which will be best for you. We have traveled and dived in Thailand and we think the best diving in Thailand starts at the 3 main Islands of Koh Phangan, Khao Lak and Phuket.
Dive Koh Phangan
Home to the world renowned, Full Moon Party, Koh Phangan is a great place to spend a scuba diving vacation in Thailand. After all, what could be more fun than scuba diving the crystal clear waters during the day time, and partying with buckets of vodka redbull during the night time?! Okay so diving and drinking isn't recommended but you get the point.
Almost all of the dive centres on Koh Phangan will take you to the nearby island of Koh Tao. Around 30 minutes away by boat, Koh Tao offers the best diving in thailand for beginners.

That doesn't mean it's no good for experts either but the beginner sites make for a great first experience. Scuba divers opting to travel to Koh Phangan can expect fantastic visibility almost all year round (avoid Nov-Jan if you can) and a variety of marine life including rays, barracuda, moray eels… and sometimes the elusive whale shark may even make an appearance.
Dive: Khao Lak
Aaah Khao Lak This is the ideal place to take a scuba diving holiday as it is the gateway to the Similan Islands which are some of the most exquisite islands in the whole of Thailand. The Similan islands offer, in my opinion the best diving in thailand as there is literally so much to see and so many different sites that you will never, ever get bored!

Both day trips and liveaboard dive boats depart from Khao Lak on a daily basis, and with so many dive sites in the area, you will never find it too crowded. Sharks, turtles, rays, octopuses, eels, seahorses… the list goes on! And with stunning coral reefs, wrecks and caves, could you think of a better location to spend a week diving.
Dive: Phuket
Phuket is a very popular scuba dive destination in Thailand, and the numerous direct flights to the island from Europe have only helped to contribute to this. Both day dives and liveaboard adventures are available from Phuket, and the fantastic dive conditions have led to it being listed in this guide as one of the best spots for diving in thailand

If you want to mix up your dive holiday with a variety of different sites, this is the location for you as Phuket is home to not only stunning coral reefs but some awesome wrecks too! And, let's not forget that the Phi Phi islands (known for their part in the James Bond film) are not far away.
Phuket is ideal for both beginners and advanced divers and with dozens of dive sites, there is something for everyone to enjoy! Watch the crowds in the high season though!
Whichever island you choose to travel to, one thing is for sure… you will never, ever forget the awesome experience that awaits you! So if somebody would ask you where to find the best diving in Thailand, you now know what to answer them.
Where can you find the best diving in Thailand according to you?

You'd have had to have your head in the sand to have missed the complete outrage griping the country over the cuts the Government are making at the moment. The arts sector is being particularly hard hit – with the Film Council cut, the Arts Council budget being sliced by £100M and even local councils cutting their arts funding by 100%, it's not a great time to be an artist.
Our work is rarely understood or valued and the fact that for every £1 the Government invests in the arts, the UK economy gets £2 in return seems to have been missed by those in charge.
There is a lot going on at the moment and a lot of people are voicing their concerns. Over 100 of Britain's leading artists lent their names to an open letter to the Guardian warning that government cuts risk destroying the country's "remarkable and fertile landscape of culture and creativity".
If you want to show how you feel about the cuts to the arts, or anything else that is affecting you in the Spending Review, then come along to the TUC backed March for the Alternative on the 26th March in London. The march will gather on Victoria Embankment and form up between Waterloo and Blackfriars Bridges from 11am.
If you can't make it, feel free to email firstname.lastname@example.com and she'll march in your name. Witty ideas for placards gratefully recieved! There's lots you can do if you can't come. Spread the word and sign up to other anti-cuts petitions.
Thanks, and I hope to see you there.

My official due date is the 26th, so my hospital will schedule the operation for anywhere from the 19th to the 26th. I was thinking of scheduling it for the 20th because my son was born on the 20th; my brother and I were both born on the 17th, so it would be neat to keep that going.
Was looking up horoscope signs and the beginning of January up until the 19th is Capricorn (my moms sign) and the 20th onward is Aquarius (my sign). I know I'm just rambling at this point, but am I the only one thinking this far in advance?! Lol 😂

Whilst we don't ever want to think about things going wrong, unfortunately accidents do happen and often when we least expect them. Whether it happens to you, someone you're with or you happen to be a bystander, it's an unpleasant and often upsetting experience. Here are some reasons why everyone should receive first aid training:
- If an accident happened while you were at work, you would not have to be a helpless bystander. Not taking immediate action can make a situation worse, so it's vital to know even the basics of first aid to help out until an ambulance arrives.
- First aid consists of the first help a victim of injury or illness receives and only includes simple techniques that can be carried out by anyone until professional medical help arrives.
- A knowledge of first aid helps to provide able people with the power to assist initially in emergency situations. For example, if someone swallows a harmful substance, has a heart attack or is knocked over, a first aid becomes more than a witness or bystander but can take immediate action.
- First aid techniques ensure that correct methods of help are given straight away. Did you know that it only takes 6 minutes for the brain to die from lack of oxygen? Those first few minutes are absolutely crucial to a person in need of medical assistance. This is why many events and venues hire trained medical response personnel when large numbers of people will be attending to supply Event Medical Cover. If you need outdoor medical cover contact us OMS
- Knowing basic first aid also benefits the first aider individually. They will have more confidence and greater knowledge in how to help others as well as themselves in the event of an emergency.
- Whilst all members of the public should receive such training, certain people have a greater necessity for such training. Those who look after or supervise children should know how to administer first aid. Those who work in nurseries, playgroups and as au pairs or nannies should be able to immediately assist a child or baby in medical need. Life guards will find this a mandatory part of training.
- A variety of businesses will require that their staff have some basic emergency first aid training, depending on the manner of work and job specifics. High-risk environments, such as factories and industrial sites should be given training.
- Sadly, accidents will always occur and it's for this reason that as many people as possible should be provided with the knowledge to act right and act quickly in the event of such an occurrence. Without this fast response, a simple injury could turn into something worse. Unfortunately, too many people are still dying due to a lack of immediate medical assistance. First aid does so much more than aid recovery, it is crucial to saving many lives every year.

Robyn Hood: The Curse #2
Written by: Chuck Dixon
Art by: Julius Abrera and Robby Bevard
Published by: Zenescope Entertainment
Reviewed by: Ryan McLelland
After the brilliant first issue of The Curse, issue two was almost a letdown. I think this is because The Curse came so out of left field for me. I was expecting just another Robyn Hood adventure and then Chuck Dixon comes along to make The Curse a full fledged horror book complete with tons of violence, blood, and gore. I was completely floored by the first issue. I couldn't wait to see where the book would take me.
Issue 2 has Robyn Hood in California looking for her friend's missing girlfriend. She got hit by some super cosmic magic beam that turned her into some ruthless killer or something. Robyn drives around on her kickass motorcycle looking for the friend but finds herself having to save some rich dude named German from killer assassins with super cool gas masks (seriously – I wish I had those when I was in the Army).
After Robyn saves German he seems to start putting the mack daddy moves on Robyn who really isn't having it. Guess suave, debonair rich jerkoffs aren't really her type. But the story also follows the cops interrogating one of the assassins who really turns out not to be who or what he seems. That is because German may not be exactly who he seems to be either. I'm thinking the only person we can really trust is Robyn herself.
Intrigue! Violence! Action! This issue had it all but the blood and gore were far less. There is still some blood and gore but it truly didn't live up to the horror from the first issue. My expectations were pretty damn high after reading The Curse #1 so maybe I just shouldn't have set them that high. GIVE ME THE GORE!
Overall issue 2 was a great read though it was much more of the plot. I wanted the action! The guts ripped out! The eyeball removed from the socket! Who wants plot, Chuck?!?!?!? I'm just kidding. Get some exposition out of the way so I can get with the gore in issue 3. I can't believe I'm saying that Robyn Hood: The Curse is one of the best horror comics I've read in years, but that's the damn truth. The Curse is Zenescope's first must read of 2018 and it really flexes its muscle here in issue 2.

Facebook's Libra Forked into Permissionless OpenLibra
- Facebook's libra has been forked into a permissionless project called OpenLibra.
- OpenLibra will be pegged to the value of libra and be compatible with Facebook's digital currency platform.
Facebook's yet to be released digital currency libra has been forked into a decentralized project called OpenLibra.
First announced at the Ethereum Foundation's DevCon 5 conference in Osaka Japan, on Oct. 9, the OpenLibra project is being billed as an "open platform for financial inclusion" with an emphasis on the currency being "Not run by Facebook."
Seeing #openlibra publicly announced for the first time is sending shivers down my spine. I am so excited about this initiative to "lock the door open" for libra tech. @geiger_lucas on the main stage at #devcon5 https://t.co/EdLqKm75K3 pic.twitter.com/9DAH8aPl2S— Lane Rettig (@lrettig) October 9, 2019
OpenLibra is a technical hard fork of the social media platform's forthcoming currency that will function as a permissionless, decentralized cryptocurrency. The developers behind the project claim that OpenLibra will be compatible with its Facebook counterpart, meaning there can be an overlap in application usage between the two networks. OpenLibra's value will also be pegged to that of libra, which is reportedly a stablecoin based upon multiple fiat currencies.
Wow, I guess this was bound to happen, @Libra_ is being forked into OpenLibra, a permissionless version of Facebook's blockchain, @geiger_lucas just announced at Devcon 🤯— Camila Russo (@CamiRusso) October 9, 2019
Some members of the crypto community have already referred to the OpenLibra project as "hacking" Facebook or otherwise subverting the social media platform's foray into digital currencies.
great presentation by @geiger_lucas on the open libra initiative — a. k. a. hacking facebook. pic.twitter.com/TFrqry9o5a— santi 👹 (@santisiri) October 9, 2019
However, Lucas Geiger, co-founder of crypto startup Wireline who first announced the project, says that OpenLibra will have less regulatory exposure than Facebook's project and is being built with an emphasis on decentralization.
