Health and Beauty are two sides of the same coin. You cannot possess either in isolation. Indeed a healthy person is naturally beautiful and the reverse is true. It is a fact that health and beauty go hand in hand. Health is the metabolic efficiency in all people and beauty, alas, brings joy to the beholder!Since the dawn of time, men have always been fascinated by beauty. It can be the cause of his greatest joy or failure. Poets and singers have sung paeans about man’s fascination with beauty. Even the ancient civilizations commemorated beautiful things. This is similar to the beauty contests that brings together the most beautiful women in the world at least once a year.We fear aging because of both the prospect of a general decline in physical beauty and the onset of death. In today’s society, looking good has become an obsession. There is no doubt that women and beauty are timeless. Everywhere we look, we will see women displaying their beauty, as reflected in their hairstyles, make-up, fashions and accessories.So how do we make our self beautiful? In reality, it always starts with two simple things; the first being our body and second, our mindset. If these two basic things are not right, then it does not matter how much touching up we do around the outside, the fundamentals would not have changed.First tip; our body. This has to be our starting point. We are seeing a lot more emphasis on health as an important part of beauty. Being healthy equates to having a beautiful body. Oh, I am not talking about the supermodel or Mr and Ms Universe body shapes. Nor am I referring to the athletic, muscular female physique; one with defined bicep muscles and shapely hamstrings and calves that you can die for! Hmm… no, I mean that WILL be nice but we are all not that lucky (or hardworking), sigh…Ask our self; Does my body feel good? Does it have the right connection to pleasure the heart and soul of joy? Does it have the sense of happiness?We need a beautiful body that will make us feel good about our self and make others feel good about us. Lets put it in more blunt terms; what is the point in having beauty treatment for our face if we have a gut the size of a whale? A body that even we cannot bear to look.To attain admiration, women use many different and even radical products and services that enhance and maintain personal beauty. However, no amount of expensive beauty products or services can hide the fatigue, stress, unresolved drama and suppressed anger that resides in our body and is manifested onto our face.Look in the mirror, declare that “I am worthy of uninterrupted time, to nurture my body, mind & soul”. Do some exercise, go on a weight loss but with a non-diet solution and invest in self-care. Create dates for relaxing facials, get the perfect pedicures, soak yourself in serene baths, go for exciting makeovers and enjoy those tranquil massages.The second tip; we have to feel good about our self! It starts from within. Even if people were to put us down, we still have to keep on believing in our self. Granted, this feeling of self-worth can only come about when we have a healthy self-esteem. It really takes a high dose of self-confidence to be able to truly believe in our self. That is why as long as we feel that we are beautiful inside, then we are on the right track to either staying beautiful or starting to become gorgeous.Remember, there is nothing wrong with making an effort to look good, stay in shape and keep our physical and emotional well-being nice. When we take care of our self, it does not mean that we are shallow and vain. We have to care for both our inner beauty and physical appearance in order to be beautiful, inside and out.Get our body to feel beautiful and stay beautiful in our mind.
Top 7 Software Testing Myths
Nowadays, the user experience delivered by a software application determines its popularity and profitability. The user experience delivered by an application depends on its accessibility, functionality, performance, usability, and security across various devices and platforms. Hence, it becomes essential for enterprises to focus on the quality and user experience of their applications throughout the software development lifecycle.Many enterprises nowadays implement formal software testing strategy to launch a high quality software application. Also, many businesses nowadays test the software continuously and under real user conditions. But several entrepreneurs still do not realize the importance of testing in the software development lifecycle, and the benefits of testing the software early and continuously. They are still sceptical about the benefits of software testing and believe several software testing myths.Decoding 7 Common Myths about Software Testing 1) Testing Increases a Software Application’s Time to MarketWhile developing a new software application, enterprises explore ways to beat completion by reducing its time to market. The QA professionals have to invest both time and effort to evaluate the software’s quality under varying conditions and according to predefined requirements. That is why; many businesses believe that the software testing process increases the product’s time to market. But each enterprise has several options to get its software tested elaborately without increasing its time to market. A business can easily reduce testing time by automating various testing activities. Also, it can implement agile methodology to unify the coding and testing process seamlessly.2) Testing Increases Software Development CostAn enterprise has to deploy skilled testers and invest in robust test automation tools to evaluate the quality of the software comprehensively. That is why; many entrepreneurs believe that software testing increases software development cost significantly. But an enterprise can reduce software testing cost in a number of ways. It can opt for open source and free test automation tools to reduce both testing time and cost. Also, the software testing results will help the business to generate more revenue by launching a high quality software application, in addition to avoiding maintenance and correction cost.3) Test Automation Makes Manual Testing ObsoleteThe test automation tools help QA professionals to execute and repeat a variety of tests without putting extra time and effort. Hence, many enterprises explore ways to automate all testing activities. The entrepreneurs often ignore the shortcomings of various test automation tools. They forget the simple fact that test automation tools lack the capability to imagine and make decisions. Unlike human testers, the test automation tools cannot assess an application’s usability and user experience precisely. Nowadays, a software application must deliver optimal user experience to become popular and profitable. Hence, an enterprise must combine human testers and test automation tools to assess the quality of its software more precisely.4) Elaborate Testing Makes an Application FlawlessWhile testing a software application, testers perform a variety of tests to evaluate its accessibility, functionality, performance, usability, security, and user experience. They even identify and repair all defects and performance issues in the software before its release. The test results also help enterprises to decide if the software meets all predefined requirements. But the user experience delivered by an application may differ according to user conditions and environments. The testers cannot identify all bugs or defects in an application despite performing and repeating many tests. Hence, the business must be prepared to get the bugs or issues found in the application after its release.5) Developers are not required to Test the SoftwareAn enterprise must deploy skilled QA professionals to get the quality of its software assesses thoroughly and effectively. But it can always accelerate the software testing process by making the programmers and testers work together. The developers can further assess the quality of application code by performing unit testing and integration testing throughout the coding process. Likewise, they must perform sanity testing to ensure that the software is functioning according to predefined requirements. Agile methodology further requires enterprises to unify software development and testing activities to deliver high quality software applications. The project management approach requires businesses to test the software continuously by a team consisting both programmers and testers.6) Testing Process Commences after Software Development ProcessThe conventional waterfall model allows business to start the software testing process after completing the software development process. But the conventional software testing model does not meet the requirements of complex and cross-platform software applications. A steady increase is being noted in the number of enterprises switching from waterfall models to agile methodology and DevOps. As mentioned earlier, agile methodology required businesses to test the software continuously, along with making the programmers and testers work as a single team. Likewise, DevOps requires businesses to unify software development, testing, and deployment processes. Hence, the testers nowadays start testing an application from the initial phase of the software development lifecycle.7) No Need to Deploy Skilled Software TestersMany entrepreneurs still believe that the only task of a testing professional is to find bugs or defects in an application. The even do not consider software testing requires skill and creativity. The misconception often makes businesses get their software tested by random people. An enterprise can involve real users in the software testing process to assess the application’s usability and user experience more effectively. But it must deploy skilled testers to get the software evaluated under varying user conditions and environments. The skilled testers understand how to identify the defects and performance issues in the software by creating many test scenarios. The even produce elaborate test results to facilitate the decision making process.Most enterprises nowadays want to generate more revenue by launching software applications that deliver optimal user experience. Hence, they implement formal software QA testing strategy to launch an application without any critical defects or performance issues. Likewise, many enterprises even implement agile methodology or DevOps to evaluate the application throughout the software development lifecycle. An entrepreneur can always gather information and quantitative data from various sources to verify these common software testing myths and misconceptions.
The Growth in People Powered 24 News and Breaking News Internet Websites
There have been similar websites / concepts but these were based on earlier technologies, typically the mobile phone using MMS, they could never provide the comprehensive service now offered by the newer technology Internet news sites.Mobile Phone TechnologyWhilst mobile phones were successful for sending news and pictures, for example the Tsunami in Thailand, the mobile phone network often cannot cope with the volume of traffic during such an event. Networks were overwhelmed with people trying to phone friends or relatives to see if they were safe.Within a very time of the London Bombings, mobile phone networks were unable to cope and the situation was made worse by people continually pressing re-dial.Phone networks expect a certain volume of traffic based on the number of people who have subscribed to that network; the internet works on a different principle and so does not cease to function efficiently during a time of increased communication.Breaking NewsThe speed at which breaking news hits the internet cannot be bettered as it only takes few a minutes for a user / reporter to send news in 3 easy steps:-1. Click to write & report news2. Add videos, photos & tags3. Login or register to submitCoverage of a UK based Internet News Website is typically:-
London and the Southwest
N Ireland

European and World Coverage.
There may also be other tabs for Travel news, entertainment, sport, business, politics, technology. New websites using Content Management Systems like Drupal (used by the White House) can easily cope with vast amounts of information.News from any country in the world can be put on the website as easily and quickly as regional news, and the user can read the news they are interested in at the click of a button.This contrasts to 24 hour news on the Television, where the viewer has to see news that may not be relevant to them while they wait for the news item that they are interested in. If they tune in to the same 24 hour news channel 30 minutes later, they may notice that some of the news is on a sort of loop, and they have to watch the same story again, even though they were disinterested in it the first time around.24 hours news, the Ipad and mobile Internet DevicesThe internet is now the best medium for breaking 24 hour news because of the increasingly widespread use of mobile internet devices. Examples are the Ipad, tablet pc’s, notebooks and the latest generation of mobile phone with fast and efficient internet access.Today’s young professional increasingly use internet news sites at home and work. They can quickly zoom in on items of news, business or travel and then move on to the next item in their busy schedule.ConclusionWhen large numbers of consumers bought and used mobile phones either in addition to their fixed lines or as an alternative to having a fixed phone line, it affected the way we communicate. It is expected that as large numbers of consumers buy and use mobile internet devices in addition to, or as an alternative to their ‘fixed line’ (broadband or network at work / University), there will be increased use of highly successful people powered 24 hour breaking news internet sites.
