We have written several posts about PCI Compliance on this blog, but it is definitely not our strong suit - yet. Therefore, when I run across any good content on the subject I like to point it out to you our readers.  So here is an article I just came across on an American Express [...]

Compliant Zardari is doing it! by Moin Ansari | RUPEE NEWS | August 20th, 2008 | Moin Ansari | معین آنصآرّی | After trying to totally reformat the Pakistan Army from one that defends the borders of Pakistan to one that is built to fight counter insurgencies, the US in no uncertain terms has dictated that the ISI be pretty much shut down

A very creditable 1-1 draw against a strong Sevilla side gave us a 'trophy' of sorts yesterday, amazingly the starting eleven was not even as strong as our full reserve side. Injuries to Nasri and Diaby resulted in the squad appearing more thread bare than it actually is, having said that if we are to fight for silverware on several fronts we will have to bring in at least one more player. The

When compliant with 508, web content also becomes more available to all users including those using mobile devices, laptops, voice browsers etc. Therefore, while 508 compliance is something [...]

Internet Explorer 8 is set to be Microsoft’s most standards compliant browser ever. After originally stating that IE8 would default to the same noncompliant behavior exhibited by IE7, Microsoft relented and plumped for standard-by-default. The first beta of IE8 was released in March and it did indeed default to standards compliance. Web developers have been [...]

Exclusive sources close to the Internet Explorer development team are reporting that latest internal builds of IE8 have deactivated the new 'super standards compliant' mode. Worse still, this change is likely to be permanent if hushed proposals at the software giant are to approved.

On the face of it, Bub is a stubborn boy. "He doesn't like it when people tell him to stop doing something," I observed blandly to another parent yesterday at the Little Gym as Pie and I peered worriedly through the window. Bub stood there with his trademark stricken expression, his face an outline of pure despair because he had been gently asked to sit down in the circle. "Too bad the

How can a manufacturer design a legally-compliant trade program that rewards those retailers that deliver the best profit per trade dollar? That's a question that Daniel Kotchen, a contributor to this site, addressed in an article he recently wrote for Forum magazine. Specifically, he addressed the legality of:Conditioning trade funds on minimum retail price points consistent with the resale price maintenance standards of Leegin Creative Leather Products v. PSKS; andAwarding trade funds on the basis of profitability consistent with the Robinson-Patman Act. The full article is available here.

GNU GPC is such a compiler. It will take switches that configure it for either ISO 7185 use or Borland use. Note that several of the differences between the languages are compatible between the languages without the need for an option. Here is a list of ISO 7185 to Delphi differences, and whether they require a configuration option, and why. See the section "Differences between the languages", for details on each difference. 1. Procedure and function parameters. Requires a configuration option: No Reason: In delphi mode, the keyword procedure or function in a procedure or function header is an error. In ISO 7185 Pascal, it introduces a procedure or function parameter. This makes it essentially an extension to Delphi. 2. Interprocedural gotos. Requires a configuration option: No Reas

Is your firm compliance ready according to Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX)? Do you have proper documentation to support any lawsuits or fines?  More and more firms are moving towards this compliance method, since they don't want to be slapped on the wrist by clients and other authorities, such as the Canada Revenue Agency. Keeping proper electronic and paper based files are very important.    Make sure that you keep at least 10 years worth of data of your business, which includes any data files, e-mails, etc. Keeping hard copies of information is also suggested, since back up systems can fail or viruses can hit your company's system and destroy everything, if you don't have it backed up one way or another.  I would suggest for small businesses to back up their information on a weekly basis at most, but daily would be preferred. Medium to large businesses should back up their information on a daily basis.  You should also keep a fe

Whether you prefer a Toyota, a Honda or even the high-end luxury cars such as Mercedes Benz, green standard compliant cars would normally have less impact on any potential buyer. Reason for such is usually due to the fact that they are too bent on checking out the features such as power features and of course bonuses installed if and when they purchase cars. In these cases, green standards are usually taking a backseat. Pollution control due to greenhouse gas emissions are almost a given when you purchase a new car. Maintenance is another thing but if you are buying a new car, chances are, these issues will only set in after 5 years and up. Just think of it. Why would anyone buy a car that would be a smoke-belching vehicle. It is like buying a second-hand car for nothing special.

I was just re-reading Joel Comm’s Monthly Templates for copywriting tips when I begin to have this funny feeling that some elements of his sales page are ‘bugging’ me, and I can’t tell exactly what they are. Guess what? Today, a mail from another marketer was trumpeting more loudly this one aspect of Monthly Templates. If you read through Monthly Templates, Joel emphasize that his templates are designed using W3C-compliant XHTML, whatever that means to you Las Vegas“.) Thus the principle is: the more obvious a “call to action” is, the simpler the site must be. It must simply scream, “DO THIS.” And when a site is made simply, I presume it cannot veer too far from W3C specifications. Look at Microsoft.com. Did you think it’s W3C-compliant or bloated with excess code? It’s a chicken-and-egg problem for the webmasters at Microsoft if they are pressed for time (so as a result, do not pay careful attention to making their site

While I was home for Christmas, my parents surprised me by showing me a room that sat above our garage that they had recently remodeled. It looked great, but much different from when I was a kid in junior high. While I was up checking out the new look, I was reminded of many warm summer afternoons spent with a group of about 10 junior high guys playing poker in that room. Though the stakes were pretty low (I'll see your 20 M&Ms and I'll raise you 15 Red Skittles), we still had a great time. A month or two before that, I was on a men's retreat and one of the guys brought along a very nice poker table and we sat down for a few nights of Texas Hold "em, a game I had just started playing again recently. There are a few bars here in Atlanta who run games of Texas Hold "em throughout the week, so I've had a chance to play on some nice tables with real chips and everything. Cardroom Supply looks like a great place to get set up with the premium set-up, whether you want to

seperti dicatet Google Blogoscoped. dari empat search engine utama, Google, Yahoo, MSN, dan Ask. Hanya MSN yang memenuhi standar web W3C dan lolos uji validasi markup dengan sukses. berikut ini adalah hasil validasinya. MSN ada di peringkat pertama soalnya sukses mendapatkan yang ijo-ijo. MSN - Valid Yahoo - Gagal validasi, 21 error Google - Gagal validasi, 27 error Ask - Gagal validasi, 64 error makanya lucu kan. Microsoft, pembuat Internet Explorer 6, browser yang jelas paling nggak standards-compliant. tapi justru bisa membuat satu-satunya search engine yang lolos validasi.
