10 GREAT TIPS FOR WIVES

1) Let him know you believe in him. This will empower him to achieve his dreams. You made him feel that he was more special than anyone or anything else, before marrying. Work to help him see that again.

2) Accept your husband for the man he is, instead of wishing you could change this or that. (Stop concentrating on your spouse’s faults (this makes them look even bigger than real life). Instead, work on your own. Take the“log” out of your own eye, as the Bible says to do in Matthew 7:5.)


3) Help him be a hero to his kids. Speak well of him and the good things that he does. (You are God's choice for being your husband's cheerleader, when it comes to your husband. (And the same goes for him.)

4) Appreciate the things he does —like making repairs around the house. (Even if he doesn't do them well —at least he's making the effort —which is more than a lot of husbands will do.)

5) Let him spend time with the guys doing “guy” things (unless those "guy" things compromise the integrity of your marital relationship).

6) Respect his right to need some space sometimes. It doesn't mean he doesn't love you.

7) Stop asking him to throw out his torn, faded jeans. What you hate about them is what he loves about them. [Learn to choose your battles —concentrate on things that really ARE important.]

8) Stop criticizing his mother or father. This may be difficult to do when his family makes life difficult for you. "Speak the truth in love" and —motivated by love, when it concerns his family. If this doesn't help, ask the Lord to show you how to handle the situation in the godliest, most peaceable way possible.

9) Be patient with him. Make him feel special —he’s still someone who craves your approval.

10) Keep looking your best — for him … and for yourself.

Making money with the falling rand: Lessons from Zimbabwe

It is no secret that the rand is falling like there is no tomorrow. This year alone it has fallen by over 18%. And if you look closely, at the last 3 years- it has fallen by 35%! This is not neglecting the economic setup where the slightest thing leads to ‘ toi toi. ' This trend of continuous striking and pay rate increase bargains has created such a vicious cycle. Prices rise, people strike, economy starts going through stuff. And we back at square one. We all know for sure that this cycle is bad. Zimbabwe and South Africa might not be different soon, only difference being that Zimbabwe chased the farmers, South Africa is chasing stabilisation. (Maybe the paradox of thrift  (prompted by the large population) will save them! Hope so.) In Zimbabwe 2008, a lot of people made a lot of money from ‘burning money’. This was whereby people took advantage of the bank rate versus the ‘streets’ rate of forex. The streets rate for forex was lower than the bank rate. Problem wa...

Artificial Neural Networks - Intro for beginners

The perceptron Single node perceptron Perceptrons form the basis for ANNs. Perceptron takes input and produces output as below: Input ➡️ Activation Function ➡️ Output Input If the weight is 0- input remains unaltered coming into the perceptron. Below is what happens to the input ∑ w i z i  ≽ t then y = 1. Else y = 0.  i t is the threshold which is set by the outgoing part. So the key to output is based on the weighted sum and the threshold. Activation function This is the processing part of the neuron and this determines output. So most commonly the ones used are the Sigmoid function and the hyperbolic tangent. QUESTION: Which activation function should I use? I am going to talk of three key activation functions a) Sigmoid The Sigmoid returns 0 or 1 and in code can be written as return 1.0/(1.0+Math.exp(-x) A Sigmoid is a mathematical curve having the characteristic S shape. DISADVANTAGE: Descending Gradient b) Tanh DISAD...

Gentlest introduction : The Cloud

How it began To me the concept of cloud started when people began virtualizing their systems using the like of Virtual-box and VMware. What bough this a;long was the evolution/advent of technology which made it possible for software so simulate hardware. Originally software could not simulate hardware drivers but the moment that became possible- virtualization was born. A few years after- companies started offering this virtualization at a much grander scale and Infrastructure as a service was born. Lets get down to the three cloud components namely: Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS) This outsourced hardware meaning that one noways noes not need to setup servers, air-con and the like of access control but could 'rent' from someone and one of the great things about this was that a backup not only meant software but also meant hardware (as software could now simulate hardware) so recovery in case of disaster became easier. Platform as a Service (PAAS) This is ...
