Academy Winner - Alice In Wonderland
My Pick - The King's Speech
Commentary - I did love the sets of Alice, but I guess I am old fashioned and prefer the more traditional sets, than the more CGI heavy ones. So I am going with Best Picture winner The King's Speech over Academy Winner Alice. I am going for subtle over flashy.
Best Costume Design
Academy Winner/My Pick - Alice In Wonderland
Commentary - While I am still weary of honor more CGI heavy Art Direction, the Costumes in Alice in Wonderland were definitely the best of the year, and I would have voted for Atwood, even if I'm weary of the double win.
Best Cinematography
Academy Winner - Wally Pfister "Inception"
My Pick - Roger Deakins "True Grit"
Commentary - So, while I feel that Inception had the better cinematography, Roger Deakins deserves an Oscar plain and simple, so I would have voted to give it to him.
Best Film Editing
Academy Winner/My Pick - The Social Network
Commentary - This film zipped by so fast, you wish there was more. It was fast-paced, energetic, and entertaining, and that is due in part to the incredible Editing job. Definitely a worthy winner.
Best Makeup
Academy Winner - The Wolfman
My Pick - Barney's Version
Commentary - Once again, I am choosing subtle over flashy. I thought that while the makeup in Barney's Version was subtle, it was uber important to the story, and did a great job of aging its characters. Plus it is the better movie. To be honest something seems weird about Academy Award winning film The Wolfman.
Academy Winner - Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross "The Social Network"
My Pick - Hans Zimmer "Inception"
Commentary - I was happy with the win for Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, but in my humble opinion, Hans Zimmer's score made Inception. It hit every perfect note, and perfectly captured the intensity of every scene, so he would have gotten my vote.
Best Original Song
Academy Winner/My Pick - Randy Newman "We Belong Together" from "Toy Story 3"
Commentary - I didn't really care for the other songs that much, and I love Randy Newman and think that he has been screwed by the Academy for years, so he would have gotten my vote.
Best Sound Mixing
Commentary - The Academy got this one right, period.

To be true to Me and true to yourself is to love. That's it. It doesn't have to be loud bounding love. It can be a calm state of love, or, We can call it an embracing peace.
"I need to see the dolphin!" I called out to my daughters, Amber and Grace. "Pack your bags, we're going to the beach."
Celebrate! There is great light coming into your planet now. The veils between the heavens and earth are thinner, there is great opportunity for manifestation, healing, and stepping into an even deeper awareness of who you really are.
There's nothing natural about living a life filled with stress and anxiety, having feelings of despair or depression, and needing pills to tranquilize yourself.
Yesterday we were balancing inner and outer activity. Today we begin the month exploring what distracts us from this balance. Martin Luther is famously quoted as saying: 'I'm too busy not to pray', which is akin to the Zen saying 'If you're too busy to meditate for thirty minutes you should meditate for an hour'.
Today Venus enters Scorpio where she remains until 7th October (GMT). As she does so the heavens present two possibilities and it is up to us to choose where we plant our flag.
It has been two months since I did a forecast and I'm not kidding - I can't remember how to do these forecasts! I'm going to get there, don't worry.
This summer I'm falling in love with life. After a very busy year in 2012, I'm enjoying being home more, giving time and attention to the things I say I value, and deepening my relationship with myself by exploring new ways of expressing my essence and creativity.
In the last two years, I have been working intensively in Turkey. In fact, I have spent more time in Turkey than any other country, in what I call my "Middle East Mission", working with Archangel Michael and the Masters of Light in this volatile and crucial region.
For years I've said that the greatest contribution we make to humanity is our commitment to grow and evolve – to raise our level of consciousness. The more conscious we become, the more we care about each other, the planet, all its inhabitants, and ourselves.
You Need To Keep Believing That Peace Comes One Person at a Time, That Light Is Birthed One Thought at a Time, That The Heart Heals One Love at a Time.
It's been quite a week here in the states. My heart goes out to all those affected by the tragedy in Newtown, CT. Whether you've lost a family member or friend, live in the community where the crime occurred, or feel deeply saddened for those who are suffering, it's important to take extra good care of yourself during this time.
In the United States of America we are in the midst of a Presidential election that is modeling to the world the antithesis of our newly birthed Renaissance of Divine Love. The candidates at national, state, and local levels have spent billions of dollars to have the media bombard us 24-hours a day with every conceivable negative thoughtform about their opponent.
Don't put off till tomorrow what you can feel today. Why wait until your lives are serene to feel the peace that resides naturally within you? Why wait until you have that home, that relationship, that job that you are creating before being happy? Why not look in the mirror and love yourselves today, even if you are not yet the person you ultimately desire to be?
The past two weeks have been a powerful period of awakening. In the process you have been instrumental in creating a new template for Divine Love on the planet as well as assisting in bringing an immense download of this love and powerful light to create positive change on the Earth. Because Love will literally bring up all that is unlike itself within you, many are experiencing upheaval in their emotional states. In fact you may be noticing increased turmoil in many areas of your life.

|** IF YOU SMELL GAS or suspect that you have a leak in your house or tank, LEAVE THE HOUSE IMMEDIATELY. Shut off the gas at your tank! ** and call our office.
Propane Safety Tips for Your Home
General Tips
To readily recognize a leak, know what propane smells like. Pamphlets are available with a scratch-and-sniff spot so that your entire family can recognize the smell. Propane leak detectors, similar to carbon monoxide detectors, are also available.
If you Smell a Leak
- DO get everyone out of the home and away from nearby areas.
- DO NOT attempt to find the leak.
- DO NOT attempt to repair your appliance or light your pilot light.
- DO NOT turn on or off light switches inside the home.
- DO NOT use a telephone inside the home or in nearby areas.
- DO NOT light matches anywhere inside or near the home.
- DO attempt to shut off the valves at the tank.
- DO call both your propane supplier and the fire department for help from a telephone away from the home and nearby area.
Propane Gas Detectors
Propane gas detectors are available as an extra measure to detect leaks.
Gas detectors are only an aid and are not intended to reduce or eliminate proper safety procedures when a person smells the odor of gas, even when the alarm on the gas detector has not been activated.
It is extremely important to follow manufacturers' instructions when installing a detector.
When selecting a gas detector, you should choose only detectors that are listed with the Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
Be aware of where gas service lines are located, especially when working in your yard.
Water can damage the internal safety mechanism in the gas controls of an appliance. If you suspect that your appliance gas controls may have gotten wet (because of flooding, for example), have one of our trained technicians replace them immediately.
Heating Appliances
All furnaces can collect lint and dirt and should be cleaned regularly. Contact the propane service department on proper cleaning, or follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Water Heaters
Drain your tank periodically (until water runs clean – usually 2 to 3 gallons) to get rid of sediment buildup on the bottom of the tank.
Ranges and Cooktops
Have your unit serviced if the burner flame is not blue. The blue flame indicates complete combustion. A yellow flame means air inlets are clogged or burners need adjustment. Contact the propane service department immediately. Do not cover the oven bottom with foil – it can restrict air circulation.
Never use gas ranges for home heating.
In its natural state, propane is an odorless and colorless gas that is widely used to fuel appliances for heating, cooking and other uses. While propane is used as a gas for fueling appliances, it is transported and stored as a liquid under high pressure in specially designed containers referred to either as tanks or cylinders. When liquid propane changes into a gas vapor, it expands in volume by about 270 times, meaning that propane is very economical to store and transport as a liquid rather than as a gas vapor. However, this characteristic also means that even a small leak of liquid propane can result in a much larger quantity of propane vapor, which can be especially dangerous in a confined space.
Similar to any other flammable gas or flammable liquid, propane is very safe when stored and handled properly. However, if propane is not properly and safely stored and handled, it can cause property damage, injuries, or even death. For this reason, it is important for the safety of the members of your household that they have a thorough understanding of the properties and characteristics of propane, and the hazards and risks associated with its use. Contact the propane service department with questions that you have about propane.

Maintaining Your Propane System
The propane system at your home or business should be installed, maintained and repaired only by qualified personnel.
Contact the propane service department to light or re-light pilot lights on your appliances.
- DO NOT bleed gas lines in enclosed areas.
- DO NOT tamper with gas controls on your appliances
- DO NOT use appliances that have been flooded or have become wet, since the controls can be damaged or become rusty and malfunction, causing the safety feature built into the controls to permit a dangerous leak of propane.
- DO have wet or flooded appliances and controls serviced immediately.
- DO NOT let your propane system run out of propane. If it happens, turn off the gas valve on the tank or cylinder and call your propane dealer.
- DO have your propane system and all appliances periodically checked by a qualified service technician for proper operation and safety.
Carbon Monoxide
- Not maintaining all of your appliances in good repair can result in potentially fatal carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Improperly vented appliances can cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning may include one or more of the following: eye irritation, headaches, dizziness, sleepiness or excessive moisture buildup on the inside of windows.
- If you identify any of the above-noted symptoms, ventilate immediately (i.e., open windows and doors) and call a qualified service technician for help. Never use camping equipment or portable heaters that are not designed for recreational vehicles.
- Consider installing one or more carbon monoxide detectors inside of your home or recreational vehicle, which may sound an alarm to warn you of the presence of carbon monoxide.
Small Cylinder Safety
- Use only DOT-approved cylinders that are in good condition.
- When using a new cylinder for the first time, insist that your propane dealer purges the cylinder to remove air and moisture in the tank.
- Propane will expand and contract depending on the temperature.
- Cylinders should only be filled to 80% of capacity.
- Propane is a flammable gas that has been odorized.
- Know the odor of the gas. The odor is for leak detection.
- Leaking propane may cause fires and explosions.
- Before lighting propane gas appliances, check all connections for tightness using a leak detection solution.
- Be sure to read the manufacturer's instructions before operating gas appliances.
- Never use propane from a cylinder without a regulator.
- Do not use matches or lighter to check for leaks.
- Turn off the valves on the cylinder when not using.
- Never store a cylinder indoors or in an enclosed vehicle.
- When transporting a cylinder, make sure that it is secured and in the upright position, so that the valves are in the vapor space.
- Never smoke or have open flames near propane cylinders.
- When filling cylinders attached to your vehicle, be sure that all sources of ignition are shut off; this includes pilot lights and vehicle engines.
- Contact the propane service department for more cylinder safety information.

Meet Rehema Nsanyiwa
Posted on November 21, 2015 at 10:57 pm by amuse / Uncategorized
MEET THE MUSES: Rehema Nsanyiwa interviewed by Else Kerkmann ~ friends, activists, artists, mothers.
How do you know each other?
Rehema: Else is my sister. She sheltered me, fed me and loved me during the time I spent in
Bend, Oregon where I had been invited by World Muse, a super awesome program.
Else: I very briefly met Rehema on a trip to Uganda. At the time, she was the top girl breakdancer in the country.
What do you have in common?
Rehema: For women who want to be. We are both mothers and lovers of change.
Else: We both love to help lift people up, but both need time to reboot. I think we are both
learning to invest a little more time in ourselves.
What do you admire in each other?
Rehema: I admire her tenacity and comprehensiveness.
Else: Her courage and her capacity for love of others.
What two words would describe your friendship?
Rehema: Empathy and curiosity.
Else: Trust and laughter.
About you, Rehema:
What makes you leap out of bed?
Dissatisfaction, emptiness, and celebration.
What did you dream about when you were 8?
At 8, I dreamed of being like Samuel. The child talked about in the Bible who became a key figure in restoring the Israelites religious heritage after his mother Hannah had suffered not having had a child in a society where having a child brought approval and acceptance (1 Samuel1). I had just lost my mother and I really had no idea how I was going to turn out to be, even when I had a vision. I stayed within incredibly dysfunctional families where I was extremely discriminated upon. I spent more time on the streets looking for a place to call home. In relation to Hannah who later birthed Samuel after countless times of prayer and dedication to the point that the priest Eli in the temple misunderstood her for being drunk; that was the point in my life when I discovered that I would get whatever I wanted If I knew what it was, worked and prayed towards getting it. I remember praying, "Please Lord, make me an adult now. My promise is to work hard and achieve my goal. I don't have anyone to sacrifice me to you like Samuel but I can sacrifice myself to serve you."
What do you dream about now?
I always envisioned myself being talked about in a magazine, particularly from South Africa. I don't think I have a dream now. I think I only dreamed once. I just envision things now.
What matters most to you?
I hate giving halves or quarters of myself. Being whole matters most to me.
What do you tell young people to do?
To reach a point where they are most themselves. That's where the magic happens.
What is your most marked characteristic?
My most marked characteristic is playful independence.
What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Having reached a point that best describes the idea of who I am and supporting others to attain theirs.
What do you want to be remembered for?
Caring for those that don't have.
What is your motto?
Inside is the source.
Tell us about your work:
What are you working on now?
I am the Director and founder of Girlbe; a grassroots initiative that empowers young
women and girls from local communities through creative means of learning. At Girlbe, we do creative workshops (both awareness and ability) in capacity building and entrepreneurship among young women aged 17-23 years old and regular artistic, domestic, and literacy support for girls aged 8-16. We create a platform for learning by sharing skills, experience, knowledge and space for young women and girls to build self-esteem, entrepreneurial skills, literacy, leadership, intra and inter personal skills to create employment opportunities for young women from deprived backgrounds. We connect girls and young women with raw creativity and fresh ideas to well established professional artists. We are currently working on establishing the Girlbe academy which will be a three months intensive creative residential program for sexually abused young women in Uganda.
After running Girlbe for four consecutive years, I realized the need to address issues related to sex abuse among girls and young women from local communities. When a girl lacks the most basic requirements of life like food, love and shelter, she is at a higher risk of being taken advantage of by those that seem to have the resources. It's essential to cultivate a new awareness in them about self, supplemented with practical skills and material resources that can earn them a decent living. The worst decision is that made out of despair; we want to minimize that.
What should people know about your work?
People should know that my work is life. It's not about pamphlets and research documents – even when they are also needed especially in resource finding and documentation - it's simply walking for only a fraction of a second in a young woman's life undergoing any form of social injustice.
How can we support you and your work?
First of all, you are already supporting me and I appreciate. However, to answer your question, you can support me by sharing both mentor and material resources within your reach.
How do you balance work and play?
The only part of what I do that would require play is 'management' not leadership.
(Doing something right and doing the right thing respectively as Peter Drucker stated). Honestly, my work is the most natural thing I do. It's creative, and thus I get to express myself. I dance, I write, I sing and play instruments. That for me is play.
Share your inspiration with us:
When and where are you most inspired?
My inspiration is from daily life experiences. Since my childhood, I always wanted to be. I couldn't tell exactly what I wanted to be so I tried out a variety of things. Starting with sports that crowned me sports prefect or student leader in sports at my primary school to leadership where I held countless roles to being Head girl even when I was the child that was always sent back home for school fees to studies where I also topped my class a number of times to dance and now to just creative means of learning. So, it's difficult to grasp who I really am. I think I would be anything. Doctor, engineer, lawyer, political leader, you name it. It's just not found inside of me. It's like self discovery is the ideal abstract art piece I can present when it comes to what inspires me most. It's such a concept!
If you could inspire one change in yourself, what would it be?
I find radical inspiration at the edge of things both positive and negative even when most times it's too exhausting and painful respectively.
If you could inspire one change in the world, what would it be?
The understanding of money and meaning.
Where do you look for inspiration in your daily life?
Doing things to the point that it couldn't get any better from an honest place. I can choose to take a rest to recollect my thoughts and heal my body but not in search for inspiration. Deliberate search for inspiration is one way of cutting it short. I just live my life and that's enough.
Who inspires you?
Everybody can be a source of inspiration from various perspectives. However,
personally specifically and consistently I find Sunoj D a contemporary visual artist
from India Banglore whose life, simple, fulfilling, empathetic but also competent and
my 4 year old son Hayagi Anand Kerkmann who gets me to just wonder.
Who are your social change muses?
My social change muses are Bill Kahirimbanyi Bekunda of Foundation for Advancing Healthy Lifestyle Options, Faisal Kiwewa of Bayimba, Abramz Tekya of Breakdance Project Uganda, Melissa Michaels of Golden Bridge and Amanda Stuermer of World Muse.
Want to share a quote or a poem or a song lyric that inspires you?
I will share something from the Bible even though I am not religious. (1 Samuel 1:12-14)
As she kept on praying to the Lord, Eli the priest observed her mouth. Hannah was praying in her heart, and her lips were moving but her voice was not heard. She was mumbling. Eli thought she was drunk and said to her, "How long will you keep on
getting drunk? Get rid of your wine."
Now, let's dive deep:
What is holding you back from living the life you want?
Nothing is holding me back. My life is perfect the way itis. Everything I am now is a result of yesterday's experience and decisions and I am aware of it. However, I embrace uncertainties.
What is your greatest fear?
My greatest fear is the loss of my sense of self.
Learning to be as independent as possible.
What breaks your heart for others?
When they can't understand things like being honest, speaking from the heart and feeling for others.
How do you break your own heart?
Self criticism and condemnation
If you had the world stage for one moment, what would your message be?
My message to the whole world would be simple. Find a way to help someone else.
Let's talk about motherhood:
What two words best describe you as a mother?
Vulnerability, Indigenous.
What do you love best about motherhood?
Interaction, relationship, experiencing each other's life, and trust that my son and I are heading
What do you find most challenging about motherhood?
Keeping up being the mother. Sometimes I want to be the child.
As a mother, what is your greatest fear?
Failure to provide for my son physically, spiritually and mentally.
What has been your greatest lesson from motherhood?
Showing vulnerability.
What two words best describe your mother?
Diligence, versatility.
Finish this sentence: What I remember most about my mother is…
That she took good care of her stepchildren.
What story did you inherit from your mother?
Diligence, aggressiveness, versatility, and modesty.
What story do you hope to pass down to your children?
That divorce is due to uniting two people into one.
Thank you both for the inspiration. xo, muse

I remember reading that though the St. Chamond turned out to perform poorly while trying to cross trenches, when it was on flatter ground this tank type did fine. Was that the case?
Quite so. Took heavy losses, but did good service.
"Sometimes things that are not true are included in Wikipedia. While at first glance that may appear like a very great problem for Wikipedia, in reality is it not. In fact, it's a good thing." - Wikipedia.
James H wrote:Quite so. Took heavy losses, but did good service.
Thanks. I wanted to show the tank actually do something, such as maybe squishing a defensive position. Any suggestions?
I have the tank kit now, ready for building. Seems that the camouflage varied quite a bit, even if the 4 colors stayed the same. So I can do basically what I feel like?
I thought of it crushing a German machine gun position BTW. I assume they existed outside of the (pill)box even late in the game.

Angle RNLI lifeboat tows yacht to safety
Angle RNLI's all weather lifeboat was launched on Sunday evening (June 5) to go to the aid of a 12 metre yacht, which had engine failure and was becalmed off Freshwater West, on the South Pembrokeshire coast.
The Tamar class lifeboat Mark Mason was launched at 6.42pm and reached the yacht in 13 minutes.
Once on scene, lifeboat volunteers rigged a tow and the yacht was taken to the entrance of Milford Docks, where she was put into an alongside tow and berthed on the Mackerel Stage pontoon.
With no further assistance required, the lifeboat was released to return to her station, where she was rehoused at 8.21pm.

Not that long ago, people were encouraged to eat three square meals a day, at specific times (with some wiggle room) for optimal health. In recent years, however, such a notion has been turned on its head, and one of the things that has contributed to this change in thinking is intermittent fasting.
Intermittent fasting is a general term for various eating plans that cycle between fasting and non-fasting, and involves limiting your food intake to a certain window of time. Joseph Mercola notes that our ancestors practiced intermittent fasting as a way of life since they didn't have the ready access to food we enjoy today.
Ways to approach intermittent fasting
One of the more popular intermittent fasting techniques involves eating during a six to eight hour window of time each day; for example from noon until 6 or 8 PM. During that period, you would eat the same amount of calories you normally would if you spread your meals out during the day. A variation of this approach is to reduce caloric intake if weight loss is your goal.
How you choose to practice intermittent fasting is up to you. If restricting your eating to a small window of time each day (sometimes called the 16/8 method) doesn't work for you, you might prefer another approach, such as:
- Fasting for 24 hours once or twice a week
- Fasting every other day
- Refraining from most food for two days a week (eating only 500 to 600 calories on those days)
- Trying the warrior diet: fasting all day and eating a large meal at night
Read more about juice fasting Be sure to stay adequately hydrated. Water, coffee, and herbal tea can be consumed at will throughout the day. Intermittent fasting should never feel like a punishment: if you feel weak or light headed, you should re-evaluate your fasting approach and find something that works for you. Intermittent fasting has several important health benefits, and you want to be sure to enjoy them!
If you switch to a six to eight hour intermittent fasting plan, begin gradually, starting with one or two days per week. Give your body time to adjust to the changes in eating habits.
Intermittent fasting works best if you follow a natural, whole-foods diet and eliminate processed foods. Focus on healthy fats (e.g., avocado, olive oil, coconut oil, raw nuts), plant protein, fresh fruits and vegetables, and whole grains.
Benefits of intermittent fasting
The first benefit that comes to mind when people think about intermittent fasting is weight loss. It's true that it can help drop pounds, especially if you add exercise to the program. Fasting allows the body to switch from carbohydrate burning to fat burning.
When you add exercise to the picture, the physical activity boosts fat burning as well as counteracts muscle wasting and aging. Another way intermittent fasting helps with weight loss is its stabilizing effect on ghrelin, a hormone that regulates hunger.
However, there are other health advantages to consider. For example, intermittent fasting has been shown to boost brain health, at least in animals. More research into how fasting approach can help brain function is underway.
Other health benefits include helping promote insulin sensitivity, boosting production of human growth hormone (which plays an important role in fitness and slowing aging), reducing triglyceride levels, battling free radical damage, helping with detox, and suppressing inflammation (which has a role in many chronic diseases such as heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, arthritis, and cancer).
Read more about chronic inflammation and what it really means
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, underweight, have or had an eating disorder, and if you are hypoglycemic or diabetic, please consult with your doctor before starting any intermittent fasting program.
Intermittent fasting can help you maximize your energy, ability to burn fat, drop excess pounds, and maintain overall health. To decide if intermittent fasting is right for you, the best place to start is with a trusted healthcare provider.

F10 Alarm System - Keeps going off
CuppaT posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Hi, First introduction to the board but hoping someone can help. I've recently purchased a 65 plate 520d and am struggling with the alarm...just setting itself of randomly. It's just returned from the garage after having the passenger door lock mechanism changed as this was throwing error codes and also showing as opening on diagnostics when locked and the alarm sounding...problem solved, so I hoped. Returned home and it's still doing the same...but not all the time. Returned to garage but no new error codes and typically didn't go off whilst I waited. Been parked up at home for 2 hours also without issue but just returned from a trip and it's back at it again. Anyone had anything similar or possible pointers? This is coupled with the battery discharging when stationary warning too. Many thanks Geoff
Spider in rear light
uas66 posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Hi all, Yeterday I noticed a spider in the taillight. It was sitting in there, dead. I removed the light and tried to get the spider out but it was impossible. So I tried to blow air into the holes from the bulbs, but nothing. The spider didn't even move. I even made it worse, because the air has ensured that other dirt such as cobwebs can now also be seen. How can I make my taillight 'clean' again or do I need to replace the light? Thanks in advance!
Audio upgrade F10 - A different approach
Alexhad posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Hi guys, just wanted to share my recent audio upgrade completed today. I bought an F10, 520D recently and as we all know the OEM speakers are not the best. I start searching for compatible speakers and found the usual suspects, Focal IFBMW, MTX, Bavsound stage one, Match, ESX, Harman Kardon etc. I am very price conscious and usually search for days until I am settling for something and in this case, I focused my attention towards the Focal range as I like the brand and had 135VR's and 165VR's in one of my previous BMW E46 coupe. It was out of discussion paying £5 - 600 for the IFBMW and as I wanted to have high-quality sound for the best price I started to look for 4" Focal speakers. I found quite a few and the interesting thing is they are not advertised as compatible with BMW, I am sure they will put the price up if they will.... I bought a pair of these for the back https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Focal-AUDITOR-R-100C-4-10cm-2-Way-Car-Coaxial-Van-Door-Dash-Speakers-240W/262351114177?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 And a pair of these for the front https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Focal-Integration-ISC100-4-10cm-2-Way-Coaxial-Car-Speakers-200W-Total-Power/401093581124?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 As well 2 pairs of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10cm-4-Front-Rear-Door-Speaker-Adaptor-For-BMW-X3-2007-Onwards/351735857820?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 As well you will need 4 x 61138373583 and 8 x 61130006664 from BMW for a neat setup. The result is, to say the least, impressive with very clear midrange and crystal clear highs. The Integration speakers in the front have a rotary tweeter which you can adjust to face the driver and raise the soundstage and you really have the impression that the sound is coming from the pillars. All in all, for £160 all in I find it very hard to believe that there is a better solution to upgrade your sound system to match this setup and wanted to share with you all, and believe me you will not regret it!

Help needed to identify this noise
Kevin_r posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Dear Experts, I am new this forum and need your advise to understand this strange noise coming from my BMW 520d F10, 2011 and from the engine bay. Not sure from where it's exactly coming from engine bay, but highest noise I see from driver side engine front. When car is idle it sounds perfectly alright, however if I go above 1000rpm it starts making weared noise. I've recorded and attached video link of it. I do appreciate members to please share your experiences and view on it. I've visited BMW specialist but he spent less than 10 seconds for investigation and said it's timing chain and estimated for £2000, already ring BMW and as usual they don't have any appointments for next 3 weeks to investigate this. I really really appreciate your help and opinion. BMW 520d noise from engine (YouTube) above link of youtube video I've captured for noise. Thanks.
Wheels and Tyres for Winter in F10
CS10 posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Hi everyone. Thinking of getting separate wheels for winter for my 520d. Ive currently got the staggered 18 inch tyre set up (245/40/18 front and 275/45/18 rear). Am I correct in thinking that I could get 18 inch wheels with 245/40 all around, and if I wanted to drop down to 17, I could do this and have 225/55 all round? I could be tempted to drop down a size just because of cost really. My car has TPMS so I understand that I need to buy wheels with this sensor on there, or I can get them fitted? The car also has rear integral active steering, but I don't think this will be affected by dropping down to 17 or even changing from the staggered 18 will it?
EGR Valve removal and cleaning
DoctorD posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Has anyone come across an online guide for removing the EGR valve on a F10/F11 (N47n engined) 520d? All the guides I've found (use a completely different layout and unit). Mine is the BMW Part No. 11717810871 (made by Wahler). There's a load of gubbins that would have to be removed to reach the EGR and I'd rather not be a pioneer when surely another DIYer must have done this job before.
F10 Remote key battery
Sarjoo posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Dear all, I seen a message pop up recently claiming my key remote battery is low. I am sure this is a DIY job and not an extortionately priced dealer job Does anyone know if doing so risks the key losing its synch with the car? Are there any gotchas basically. Does anyone know exactly what battery I should buy? Is this it --> https://www.amazon.co.uk/Duracell-CR2450-Lithium-Battery-Blister/dp/B0042KL882/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1522325477&sr=8-1&keywords=duracell+2450 While I am at it am tempted to change the other case also, the BMW logo button is completely knackered by other keys and it just a silvery mess now. Am sure there must be some OEM cases on ebay! Thanks again!
M Sport suspension
Greenninja posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Hi all, this should be a fairly straight forward one to answer (most likely Mr Ashton) but can anyone tell me do cars with M-sport suspension fitted have airbags at the rear??? I suspect not but i`m almost certain that when i got in the car this morning to move it I felt the rear rise up, and my daughter has commented before whilst standing outside the car that the rear looked low.... I cannot see anything obvious when I look into the wheel arch just the usual strut but no obvious spring either.. It was dark this morning so figured guys in the know on here could tell me (or girls to be politically correct) I`m sure they don`t have airbags just on the rear but you never know with the way BMW spec individual cars.. Thanks in advance
BMW's being Broken into and interior items stolen!!
andy_ran posted a topic in General DiscussionHi Guys Haven't been on for a while but thought I should share this. Very good friend of mine has (had) a Lovely F10 M5 and last night on his drive it got broken in too and had almost all the electronics stolen from it along with interior items It wasn't a have a go hero, it was clearly organised and according to the police they hit 3 F10s last night in his area (Kent) but its a widening issue. First, they covered the movement sensor on the floodlights, then the CCTV camera! Cut a hole in the front bumper and filled the alarm siren with expanding foam, along with cutting the wires to it. They also filled a compartment behind the rear wheel with expanding foam, then drilled into the driver's door and gained access. Once inside they stole all the electronics, screens and M Interior bits. This was done on his driveway, in a built-up neighborhood Forensics where on site within 20 mins as they were taking samples from another car locally.

BMW F10 Style 328 18 inch Wheels and Winter Tyres. PRICE DROP.
f10kamal posted a topic in Wheels & TyresI have here 4 x BMW Style 328 wheels for sale. I used these as my winter set on my 5 series which I no longer have. The wheels have Nokian W3s on them: 245/45 R18 100V XL. They have about 6-7mm tread left on them all round. They are non-run flats and really made the car drive smoothly and quietly. I would like to point out that one of the alloys has a small crack in it. This developed in the 1st year I had them and resulted in some air loss at the time. I had it welded (see photo) and there have been no further issues subsequently eg air leaking. I am aware that some people prefer not to run a welded alloy, but I just want to be as open about this as possible. There are also some minimal scuffs on one of the wheels and the BMW hub caps have some signs of weathering. I actually didn't use those ones, opting to use the ones that were on my lease car instead as they were brand new. I am based near Uxbridge, London. I don't really want to get involved with getting such large items couriered so these are for collection only please I am looking for £750.00 £700.00 £575.00 ono NOW £500.00 Any questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks, Kamal
Immobiliser Problem
Owain posted a topic in Hello I'm NewHi everyone, hope someone can help with advice. I have recently bought a BMW 525D F10 2010 reg. it came with a key fob (see photos) recently, I have been having issues with the car starting up. You press the start/stop button and nothing happens with the engine and only turns the electrics on or off. Sometimes even the alarm goes off. Inside the cubby box under the steering wheel(see photos) is some light with a button on it. I think the key fob with the button on it is for this. Whenever I have this problem the light flashes. Not sure if this is a 2nd immobiliser? Has anyone come across this before? Is this a after marker immobiliser? Can I remove it? Can I disable the alarm? I spend about 5/10 minutes pressing the button on the key fob, eventually the red light stops flashing and allows me to start my car. On the display is says 'ignition on' sometimes when this problem occurs. No faults on the car showing. any advice would be greatly welcomed and thanks for reading my post, Owain

f10 BMW F10 Style 328 18 inch Wheels and Winter Tyres.
Pepi1677 posted a topic in Wheels & TyresI have a set of wheels with winter tyres that I have used for two winters for a couple of months each time. They have a set of 245/45 R18 Pirreli Sottozero. They have depths of around 2* 5mm and 2 * 4mm approximately. There are no scuff marks on the wheels. There are however slight signs of wear that can be seen in the pictures. I have had a repair done to 2 wheels that were on the near side, this was due to pot hole damage, this work was completed by Prestine wheels, Woburn Sands, these are the authorised BMW wheel repair centre. I have the invoice available. This did not involve any welding. I do not want to get involved in posting such a large item so ideally collection only, I am based near Milton Keynes. Any questions please ask. £600.00 the set.
integral active steering Integral Active Steering alignment for 535d
F10wolf posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017Hi guys, Hope your all enjoying the snow lately here in the U.k.. I drove over a pot hole not too long ago, which had cut my front passenger RFT tyre and left a slight buckle to my alloy which wasn't visible juntil the tyre was fitted. Anyway I had the tyre replaced and new genuine alloy fitted but noticed that my car had lost the tight steering feeling it had prior to this, and the car seems to wander alot as well as require some over steer when turning around roundabout etc. I had a 4 wheel alignment done to the car by BMW on KDS but this didnt solve the problem and i have just hated driving my car for a few months on long and short journeys, however I have only just realised that one of the features in my car is "Integral Active steering" which i understand is what provide precise turns and less steering input which I used to have before the damage to my tyre and alloy. I have checked through my wheel alignment sheet provided by BMW and noticed that under vehicle spec is states: BMW 5 series F10 2010 - Rear wheel Drive model: without AFS (Active Front Steering) Sport suspension with lower height ride. I cannot understand why the technician has stated without Active Front Steering and there is no mention about Integral Active Steering? I have done some research on Active Front steering and Integral Active Steering which seem to be very similar and the characteristics are exactly what I had with my car where I had full control of my car on fast and low speeds, didn't turn the steering much when doing turns etc. I have now noticed that my rear tyres have wear on the inside and besides the car wandering and pulling left, my steering has to be kept towards the right to keep the car straight yet i find my self constantly having to correct the car when driving straight. Did the technician carry out a wrong wheel alignment on my car at the time and missed out anything such as active steering calibration which other forums have stated? Many thanks for your help in advance.
What Bulbs?? and more to the point what lights!!
Greenninja posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017OK, this may seem like a fairly sraightforward question but one ive yet to find a very clear answer, My 5 series has the following 2 options (522 and 524) Xenon lights and adaptive headlights, but I cant find exactly what Bulb I need to replace the slightly pink and bound to fail soon one I have in the drivers side lamp. I keep seeing that it is DS1 Xenon, but are they all the same as far as wattage etc is concerned?? and should I chose to go for a different kelvin rating does this cause any issues?? im thinking 6000K?? Also can someone explain to me how to tell if i just have Xenon or Bi-Xenon?? I have noticed that my cornering lights in one of the lamps is halogen and looks very orange compared to the other bulb so assume i just have Xenon? Thanks in advance. Mr Ashton im sure you have this covered off somewhere in that knowledge base of yours

Adding Nav?
MarkJ posted a topic in F07/F10/F11 2010-2017I would have expected this to have been covered, but I can't seem to find anything. I have the chance of a well-priced 520d (Sept 2010) SE, but without Nav. Is it an easy retrofit? I believe the previous model was a change of screen and adding a module in the boot? TIA

James is a social butterfly and in my dreams (while wearing those PJs) I was as well. I seemed to see almost every one of my friends last night while dreaming. I woke up trying to remember everyone who starred in my dreams. Old friends I haven't thought of in years, dead friends. It was fun.

While there are a number of careers related to immigration law, we'll focus on just three: lawyers, paralegals and legal assistants and law professors. Each of these professions faces unique challenges and can be rewarding in their right.
Essential Information
There are a variety of occupational options available to students interested in immigration law. The obvious career path is to become an immigration lawyer. However, students interested in careers in this branch of law may also go on to become paralegals or law school professors. Immigration lawyers must have a law degree and pass the bar exam. Paralegals must have at least an associate's degree and it is helpful to have a certificate in paralegal studies. Law school professors are usually required to have a doctoral degree in law.

Immigration Lawyers
Immigration lawyers offer their services in a number of different legal settings, such as private practice, small and large firms, corporations and legal rights organizations. These professionals represent clients involved in the immigration process, including illegal and legal citizens who want to stay in the country, as well as refugees.
In corporate settings, they might represent clients who are trying to gain work visas to obtain employment. Immigration law issues are also present in a variety of other branches of law. For example, labor lawyers representing illegal citizens must have a strong knowledge of immigration law to preserve their clients' rights.
Aspiring immigration lawyers must complete three years of law school in addition to undergraduate study. During the first year of law school, students learn legal basics, such as civil procedure, torts, constitutional law and legal writing. The remaining years consist of electives specific to students' interests.
Those interested in becoming immigration lawyers might take electives in international litigation, civil rights, labor law and immigration law. After earning their Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree, graduates must pass the bar exam and any other state-specific exams to obtain licensure.
Salary and Outlook Information
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that all lawyers earned a median salary of $120,910 per year in May 2018 (www.bls.gov). BLS also reported that job opportunities for lawyers were projected to increase 6% between 2018 and 2028, an effect of population growth and increasing commerce.
Immigration law paralegals assist immigration lawyers in resolving legal issues. Their duties are generally restricted to research and organization of information related to cases, and they typically cannot present cases in court or advise clients.
An immigration law paralegal might, for example, investigate and analyze the Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 and prepare the findings for use in a trial. Paralegals may also compose contracts, court agreements and other documents.
These professionals generally hold an associate's degree for paralegals, though many also enter the profession with a bachelor's degree in unrelated majors coupled with a certificate in paralegal studies. Paralegals who wish to advance in the field may complete a bachelor's or master's degree program in paralegal studies, though these programs are rare. While not mandatory, certification may enhance paralegals' chances of gaining employment.
Salary and Outlook Information
In May 2018, paralegals and legal assistants earned a median salary of $50,940, according to the BLS. The BLS reported that employment of these professionals was expected to increase 12% from 2018-2028. However, the job market is still expected to be competitive due to the high desirability of the career.
Law Professor
Some immigration law professionals dedicate their careers to teaching rather than practicing law. They instruct students and stimulate thinking regarding issues in immigration policy. Along with giving lectures, this job entails preparing course materials, administering exams and evaluating students' performances.
They typically work in law schools, though some work in departments of universities, colleges and junior colleges. Some law school professors conduct research in addition to teaching.
While requirements vary by academic institution, most law professors are required to hold a doctoral degree in law. These degree programs can entail up to six years of full-time, graduate-level study. Many schools also offer combined J.D.-Ph.D. programs, which also take six years to complete and culminate in dissertation projects.
Salary and Outlook Information
The BLS reported that law teachers at the post-secondary level earned a median salary of $111,140 in May 2018. BLS reported that jobs for post-secondary law professors were expected to increase 11% from 2018-2028. This projected growth is an effect of increased enrollment among colleges and universities in the coming years. Professors who hold a Ph.D. are expected to see the greatest job prospects.
While becoming a lawyer is the most common career path chosen by people interested in immigration law, becoming a law professor or a paralegal are also viable career options. By learning about the basics of each of these careers--including education requirements and salary information--you'll be able to make an informed decision about whether or not immigration law is right for you.

As the Vice-Chair for Disaster Preparedness, DILG Region 10 has prepared the Northern Mindanao barangays for disasters in a recently concluded workshop on L!sto si Kap and Listong Pamilyang Pilipino at Dynasty Court Hotel, Cagayan de Oro City.
"With typhoons usually visiting Mindanao during the fourth quarter of the year, we need to intensify our effort in preparing our barangays," Local Government Capability Development Division (LGCDD) Chief Hazel L. Occena said.
Occena added that barangays need to review their Barangay Disaster and Risk Reduction Management (BDRRM) Plan to ensure preparedness, significantly that they are the first responders and the primary source of information during calamities.
The three-day activity was conducted in two batches. The first batch catered participants coming from Sumilao, Cagayan de Oro City, Talakag, Libona, Malaybalay City and Baungon while the second batch included LGUs from Claveria, Impasugong, Manolo Fortich, Villanueva, Tagoloan, and Malitbog.
Participants composed of the Disaster and Risk Reduction Management Officer (DRRMO), Punong Barangay, Sangguniang Barangay (SB) on Environment, SB on Women and Children, SK Chairperson, and Barangay Secretary crafted and presented Hazard Identification, Early Warning System, and Existing Protocols on Peacetime, Upon Alert, During, and After Disaster.
During the event, key barangay stakeholders also learned DRRM concepts and legal basis; identified roles and function of the barangay before, during and after disaster; discussed the L!stong Pamilyang Pilipino (Family Preparedness); and formulated their respective action plans for their respective areas.
"All must be proactive before, during, and after disaster," L!STO Focal Person/Local Government Operations Officer (LGOO) V Nasif D. Mangotara said.
On the other hand, Social Welfare Officer (SWO) III Michelle L. Tan of DSWD 10 shared that disaster preparedness must start with the family through the Family Emergency/Disaster Plan and "Emergency Go Kit."
Tan encouraged the participants to double their warning efforts especially that numerous people are still hesitant to relocate.
Moreover, LGOO V Jacillo D. Orongan shared that planting trees and disposing our garbage properly, no matter how small it may seem, will go a long way in our global effort in response to climate change.
He further emphasized the need of handheld radios to areas with bad cellular signal, as prompt information dissemination saves lives.

This is not only a problem for those leaving the service with an honorable discharge but more so for those coming out of prison.
Often I hear women about to come out of prison say I am going to such state to live with an aunt while I go to college. Then I hear that when they get to the aunts house that the cost of college even with loans is out of sight and they did not go to college.
Then there are those that go on a two or three year drug binge as a teenager and end up in prison. They have no proof that they were ever a resident of the state because they have never paid a utility bill, had a rental contract or any of the other 10,000 documents needed to prove residence.
Vets that have an honorable discharge and end up in prison often face the worst of all worlds because they have no real residence that they can claim. Especially if they want to get into school as soon as possible from prison. In theory, the VA has an outreach program to help them but the outreach program is only as good as the vets ability to make his presence known to the VA. Vets face confusion using GI Bill at state schools

How To Build Cloud-Based Mobile Applications
In these latter days, the creation of backend of mobile applications using services like BaaS (Backend As a Service, sometimes MBaaS is used - Mobile Backend As a Service) become more and more popular. In such circumstances, there is a reasonable question. What are the tasks of such kind of mobile back-end development and why it is becoming the hottest trend.
To find the reasons, we'll try to unscramble this phenomenon. Today, we will investigate several issues with you. What is Baas? How does the process of it's creation happen? What are the pros and cons of this type of development? What services will help to complete this task? What is a cloud hosting?
After reading this article, you will understand how to develop a cloud application, whether you need it, and what are the risks of using the cloud-based application development with BaaS. And, as a bonus, it will be easier to choose a hosting service for your application.
Do you want to have an eye for cloud computing programming? Ok, let it roll!
What is BaaS and what is the cloud app?
Today, most of the mobile applications require a backend, which is able to carry on the maximum number of tasks but with the use of the minimum number of services. BaaS stands for Backend as a Service. It is created in order to reduce the time of working with the backend of applications. Typically, using such services, you have a set of ready-made APIs and SDKs. BaaS providers are divided into two categories:
- consumer BaaS;
- enterprise BaaS.
The first one is focused on mobile applications such as games and branded products. The second one, in turn, is generally made for 'heavyweights'.
The set of basic back-end functions includes the following:
- push-notifications;
- cloud storage;
- integration with social networks;
- analytics;
- server-side code;
- user administration;
- SDK for popular platforms;
- background tasks;
- errors analytics.
Each of them has it's own API, which should be implemented into an application. Building cloud applications greatly simplifies the process.
Top BaaS providers
What do we need to develop an application with the backend in the cloud? The first step is to choose the service with which we'll implement our idea.
In that case, we have two options.
- To choose a service that will host the ready-made backend on the cloud. Among such services, there are Amazon Web Services, Heroku, and others. In this case, the server code is created by a developer and hosted by one of the cloud services.
- To use BaaS type services. With the use of such services, developers have a set of tools with which they create a backend. Precisely this way, the time to develop applications is reduced.
Each of these services offers quite a multifarious set of tools for the back-end building.
In this part, we propose to consider some providers with the use of which development is carried out directly in the cloud. We have identified the most popular ones for you.
It is a cloud app platform that enables the fastest speed to complete the task. It appeared one of the first and at the moment is one of the most popular and most developed. In the free version, you have the ability to serve up to 200 active users. To increase this number, you will need to purchase the paid version. This is one of that platforms, which is aimed at enterprise applications.
The services of this cloud development platform includes:
- push notification;
- analytics;
- geo-location;
- monetization.
One of the cloud application development services that provides the fastest kind of development for a small price. The maximum focus is on IoT (Internet of Things) development.
This platform has an online designer for:
- back-end code;
- mobile app code;
- mobile API code.
This is one of those cloud application development platforms, which minimally restrict the developer and allow him to create applications more easily. So the cost is most controlled by the developer. AnyPresence is enterprise focused.
Appcelerator has some frameworks on the client side and some API types for the cloud. It is aimed at enterprise clients. It can run Node modules. Appcelerator is also aimed at cross-platform solutions. With the help of this resource, it is simple to scale your application. And also, in the case of problems with the server, it is easy to move the application to another one.
It is the of the most popular services. Here is just a huge set of tools and capabilities for the developer. After the closure of the Parse it was one of those services that a large number of Parse users are migrating to.
It is good for both consumer and enterprise BaaS. It has a friendly interface and is easy for the developer. Kumulos supports the development of:
- Android;
- iOS;
Built.io is also oriented for enterprise applications. This cloud-based platform allows customers to deploy mobile apps in:
- private cloud environments;
- public cloud environments;
- hybrid cloud environments.
This service provides a large set of tools for developing HTML5 applications. Free trial version allows you to serve up to 10 active users per month. You'll have to pay for every subsequent one.
FeedHenry is a platform based on Node.js. It has a wide array of integrations, both online and offline development options, collaborative app building, and a drag-and-drop form builder. It has more than 50 Node.js plug-ins and is perfect for big applications.
Pros and cons of the cloud-based app development with BaaS services
- The data storage control panel. Due to that panel, it's possible to create, edit and view elements.
- Price for use. Many cloud services provide the trial period service or basic set of functionality for free. For example, you may have a limited amount of memory on the server or other limitations. When you purchase a paid account, you get the access to more advanced features.
- Price for development. You will be agreeably surprised to find out the final cost of your application. This is because the use of BaaS promotes the significant reduction of development costs. It happens due to the fact that this kind of mobile cloud development requires less time. And, as we know it is the time spent on the development of the application is converted to it's cost.
See also: How much does it cost to create an app?
At this point, still worth mentioning that in some cases the free version is enough. It is true for small applications with a small number of features and users. But if your application has a claim to be a flagship, you should consider purchasing the paid version.
- High speed. Applications created in this way have a higher speed to develop. This is due to the development of cloud services, providing the VPS (Virtual Private Service) for a song.
- Simplicity. Learning how to work with cloud development environment is quite simple. They are easy to learn and intelligible to use.
- Easy to scale. Projects created using cloud computing development is much easier to scale.
+/- No need to write server-side code. Everything is done by the SDK requests in an application. The disadvantage is that in order to change the behavior of the server side it is necessary to update the application, which can be a difficulty in the case of cross-platform applications.
- The risk of code damaging. The fact that the main tasks are shifted to the client side is unsafe itself. There is a risk that one attacker can catch away your API-key. This is real if the data is not bounded to the account. But services provide functions that can protect your product from such risks in some way.
- Restrictions. Some BaaS services imply a certain number of restrictions for cloud app development. Using some services developer feels like Mowgli, boxed in a small apartment. Experienced coders are heroically trying to circumvent these limits, but it is not always possible.
- The risk of data loss. Just as in the case of cloud application hosting, there is a small, but very real possibility that something can happen with a server you have chosen. From the crash failure to complete closure or destruction. In the first case, it will lead to a limited functioning for a while. But in the second case, it could cause the complete loss of an application.
Just a little time ago, it happened to one of the most popular BaaS services Parse.com. In late January, Facebook announced the closure in a year. By the by, at that moment, there were about 500 000 applications on the server. But in the case of Parse.com, it's not all that bad. The owners have been given enough time and tools to move the backend to other services.
BTW, if you have an application developed on Parse, and you still haven't decided what to do with it, our developers have the answer. Thus, to migrate your application to another service safely, please contact us. We know what to do.
- Difficulties in testing. Since the server-side code is not in simple access, the developers may have difficulties with testing of a mobile cloud application. When you have the source code it is much simpler. But if, in order to get to it, you need to go through a bunch of labyrinths, everything is not so rosy.
-It is not suitable for big projects. The best solution, in this case, is to use services like AWS (Amazon Web Services) or Microsoft Azure, for example.
And if I don't want to use these services, you may ask? There is an alternative. And not even one.
Alternative # 1
The first one is to use the server-side technology, and thus, create your own backend and store it on your own server. But there is one thing.
If your application is ready to be the next Facebook or Instagram, spending on the maintenance of your own server will be enormous in comparison to cloud apps development. They just do not in the same league.
Even if your application is quite small and doesn't have a lot of features, there is a reason to think about. Whether you have the opportunity to create your own server? It should be understood that the creation is not the whole story. It will be necessary to contain and maintain it. And it runs into expenditures.
Besides, mBaaS services are ideal for creating MVP (Minimum Viable Product). So you have an opportunity to implement and test the original idea without much cost.
And then, if you find your account in that app, you can hire a know-all team and scale and change it as you wish.
Alternative # 2
The second option is to create your own backend and use cloud application hosting. This option is more time consuming. But instead, it eliminates some risks with the BaaS development. Such applications easier to test and there are fewer restrictions for the developer.
In this case, the development costs can be higher, but the quality is much better.
So what to choose?
After considering alternatives, it can be concluded that in most cases the best advice is not to choose whether to use cloud services or not, but to choose which one will suit you best.
Choosing the best service for your application is a rather difficult task. Usually, the choice of developers are guided by the following principles:
- ease of development;
- scalability;
- application tasks;
- personal preferences.
Anyway, a silver bullet for all problems with a choice is to resort to the real professionals, who take to that option like a duck to water. Therefore, if you have any further questions, feel free to contact our managers.
They will find a solution for your specific situation and take into account all your needs. It will save you from wandering in the darkness. Our staff will help you to finish the preparation phase in a record time and set about the application development.
With us, you don't need to bother with such issues. Be sure, we'll find a solution for you.
