Zen Restaurant Review

For a newcomer, finding gate 6 of Za’abeel Park was not the easiest battle to win considering the general lack of directions/ signage in Dubai. After locating gate 6, we then faced round 2 of our confusion; where exactly is Zen? After parking a certain distance away, we walked to the entrance and were informed that Zen was, in fact, right in front of the entrance. We were all smiles considering the appetite we had built up!

As we marched forward towards the restaurant, we noticed the obvious lush green environment and a lake that surrounds the restaurant – a great first impression. After entering Zen, there’s a certain sense of comfort that engulfs you. This could be attributed to the peaceful ambience within the restaurant, although the lack of customers was quite apparent.

To start off, we were recommended iced teas. Both the Thai Iced Tea & the Green Iced Tea with honey were quite satisfying and worth a try. Moving on to the food, we felt that the server was not very knowledgeable and fortunately the owner gave us his personal attention. I was recommended the “Laab Tofu” a salad not on the menu but specially offered to meet my vegetarian taste buds. I was definitely pleased with the suggestion! It was a perfect mix of the right spices, the results being delicious. My friends enjoyed their soups and we all savored the next recommendation from the owner – “Pad Sieu Che.” Although we normally go for the typical Pad Thai, we particularly enjoyed this dish which to summarize I would describe as Thai flat noodles. My friends also tried some Non-Veg dishes, Malays Mee Goreng, Stir Fried Noodle Chicken and Joru Che ; All fantastic dishes, savored to the last morsel!

The only area of slight dissatisfaction was the service. There was possibly only one server that night who was not the most helpful – it was the manager that made the difference.

Come October, the restaurant will offer its outdoor seating overlooking the small lake and I can already see it overflowing with Dubai’s foodies.

Overall, I truly recommend this place especially for Thai food lovers!

To summarize I could say
“A truly ‘hidden’ gem!”

Pricing:

The bill didn’t hurt the pocket too much either and therefore Zen is easily one of those restaurants you would visit frequently.

Average price per person (including drink/starter/main course): AED 80/person.

And even dangerous technologies can be used for the use of nofollow

PageRank and define nofollow

Let us begin by ensuring that all on the same page. Google is due to
The rules, we will start with the Google PageRank formal definition ...
"PageRank relies on the unique democratic nature of the terrain
The use of link structure as an indicator for personal web pages. IN
In essence, Google explained the link on the Web page A point B as a vote
A Web page on B "

In simple words, to connect more of a page, the higher
PageRank will be. Each page of the possible PageRank
Through links to other pages. This process also known as a temporary link
Juice. nofollow attribute role at this stage.

10 pages of external links with any link juice
So that each link to 10% of the page link juice. Add
nofollow attribute to one of the five is twice as high as the amount
Link juice flows through the rest of the band 5, so that they each
About 20% of the juice May be linked

This means that, through carefully selected internal links, you nofollow
After the opening you have the ability to shift from juice contact your page and send important
More juice pages link to a high level.

To understand your goals

Although the nofollow can be very effective, can not use nofollow
Your first choice to optimize the structure of your site PageRank flow.
In the first nofollow on your site, you must determine whether you

And a direct link juice more natural way.

Full debate on the best sites outside the framework of the
This article, but here are some of the criteria ...

Make sure your contact information more profitable your Web page
Most of the PageRank (usually your home page).

Make sure that the links among a number of pages to ensure, 100
They were searched.

You must link to the page text to enshrine
Page Rank.

By customizing your link, you can link to your website
The direction of your main page, you can be an effective
PageRank does not use the nofollow.

However, a number of sites has been a long time, or perhaps
A large number of pages, selective use of nofollow the flow of direct links
Juice May a realistic framework for large-scale site redesign.

If the company PageRank sculpture, the first objective is to increase
Your important pages indexed. The second objective is to influence the flow
Link juice through the Web site to promote your website important
Ranking. These two goals are to achieve PageRank diversion of the road
It is also important from the Web page and an important direction.

Let's take a look at the concept behind each ...

1st That makes you more important pages indexed

On the pages divided by the level of your site. Your house is your
High-level pages. This is almost always at the top of the page
Web site because of the nature of the site in the majority.
Each page of your site link to be treated as half a page.
In the ideal case, at this level is the second most important thing you
The customer or the reader. In many cases, the second class in these pages

In your home, and at the bottom of each page, you can

This is the site of many, or what is wrong. If the link to this expenditure

It is true that nofollow attribute to your costs
Pages from around the world, unless your Sitemap (perhaps your
Page) is a huge advantage. It ensures that the cost for these pages

The PageRank can now be sent to your home, and
Continue to ensure that the links page is still visible overhead
To your users.

2nd Deflection in the second-level page ranking

Nofollow attribute from the link on this page overhead,

This kind of your page, and then flows to your PageRank
Product page. This is the position you have money

In addition, because the site is now clear that they are in a better

PageRank and the dangers that the sculpture

Know your Web site analysis is essential to
PageRank of the sculpture series. You have to believe that you really are
Focus on the right side.

Keyword research is crucial for the use of nofollow to the shape of the PageRank.
For example, an online shoe retailer can research keywords
Dessert traffic and long-term competitiveness of soccer shoes.
You can see that, in spite of the word spin
Low-flow control, and its web site to a series of all

If they start with nofollow, the important thing is search engine

Somewhere else. In the worst case, of course, is that they go after
These two words. To understand the information on your own website in advance
Can you in the best position on the basis of sales you have
The possibility of new distribution channels.

In this sense, follow these steps ...

Article 5 main steps are taken to the surface of the use of nofollow ...

1st Observation of your users interact with your site.

2nd To determine which pages are actually lets you money.

3rd To determine whether you simply change the structure of the site is a better solution.

This is not the case ...
4th To make (and documentation) small changes in the use of nofollow attribute.

5th They observe the changes.

nofollow can access your Web site penalty?

Currently, the debate over whether or not to use nofollow
So you can optimize the site and led to the search engine penalties.
The original role of nofollow a measure to prevent spam
Forum and blog. It allows administrators to say ...

"I want the views and link here, but I will not allow any link juice
Through it, because I do not know enough of the site
On the other side of the band. "

This is the direction to spam. And
To a certain level. In a logical extension of this idea is that
nofollow attribute, a red flag, said here untrusted links. Therefore, you
Must ask ourselves if you internal nofollow links on the page
Its own website, do not tell the search engine you do not believe that you
Their own Web pages?

At a certain time May of the case. But the recent Google
Matekaci has been going on record to say that ...

"Nofollow attribute is just a mechanism for the administrator is able to
Levels of homepage links to alter the flow of grain .... no disgrace to
The use of nofollow, even in your own internal links; nofollowed link to Google
From our link graph; we do not use a connection was found. "
Of course, just because some of Google said that everything is okay now, does not mean
They decided not to punish you later. However, individuals, we must
nofollow in many places and our work is only positive results.

If you are still uncomfortable with the use of nofollow attribute,
A number of other ways to optimize the flow of PageRank on your site.

Remove tinymce from drupal block edit page when format is set to PHP

Small one this to compliment our other article on removing tinymce from select textareas. This enhancement will hide tinymce from the Drupal block edit screen when the input format is set to PHP. This stops the problem of tinymce stripping the PHP tags from the block edit textarea when you edit your block

The following function goes into your template.php file and will solve the problem of tinymce showing up on a block when the format is set to PHP

function phptemplate_tinymce_theme($init, $textarea_name, $theme_name, $is_running) {
print $textarea_name;
switch($textarea_name){
//add text areas to disable tinymce for
case ‘log’:
unset($init);
return $init;
break;

case ‘body’:
if (arg(0)==’admin’ && arg(1)==’build’ && arg(2)==’block’){
$format = db_result(db_query(”
SELECT format
FROM {boxes}
WHERE bid=%d”,$bid
));
if ($format==2){
unset($init);
return $init;
}
}

default:
return theme_tinymce_theme($init, $textarea_name, $theme_name, $is_running);
}
}

PHP Web Developers India

PHP has taken the IT world by storm. Developers have taken a liking for PHP because it is emerging as the most efficient, open-source scripting language. Besides, it’s a well-known fact, that Apache is the most used web server in the world and that PHP is the most used language. The article discusses briefly what makes PHP the cynosure of developer’s eye.
Eager to know who’s the brain behind this big-bang theory in the development world? He’s Rasmus Lerdorf The developer utilized the first version to run his own home page, while his collection of Practical Extraction and Report Language (Perl) code snippets created by him in 1994 were named Personal Home Page (PHP).

The principle reason for Rasmus to develop PHP language was to keep a track of users viewing his on-line resume. To make it more powerful, Rasmus created functions in C to enable programmer connectivity to a database. This helps programmers coding in PHP, develop dynamic web sites.

Besides the PHP code was open for viewing and manipulation purpose, to further check out its practicality. The arrangement reportedly brought about an improvement in PHP’s coding standards.

In 1995, the second version of Personal Home Page was released along with a form interpreter (PHP/FI).

Such was the craze for the new language that by 1997 over 50,000 websites had PHP installed. In the same year PHP/FI 2.0 was developed by an alpha version. However, developers like Zeev Suraski and Andi Gutmans discovered that PHP/FI 2.0 was way behind the mark when it came to development of their eCommerce application.

Consequently the progress towards another version of PHP/FI was stopped and PHP 3.0 got the encouraging push. Within no time, version 3.0 proved to be hit due to its innovative features, which helped the end users develop their applications on many databases, protocols and APIs.

The jump from procedural to object orientated coding led to a change in PHP’s focus. The official version of PHP 3.0 was released in June 1998.

After the release, Andy and Zeev got totally engaged in improvisation of the PHP language for about two months in an attempt to optimize the performance of large websites. The duo were trying to introduce modularity in the language. The “Zend Engine” being the result (A combination of two letters existing in the creators Zeev and Andi names). In 1999 the Zend Engine was released.

In May 2000 PHP 3.0 gave way to PHP 4.0. The new version was bifurcated into three sections – The Zend Engine, Server API and Function Modules.

The Zend Engine is accountable for parsing PHP code, defining the syntax of the programming language.

The Server API enables communication and interfacing with the Web Server. With this API, integration of PHP with other servers is possible.

Function Modules comprises MySQL, XML, etc.

PHP 3.0 and PHP 4.0 utilize objects as containers of properties like associated arrays. An associated array is array with keys which have a value associated. The object had to belong to a class full of properties and functions.

Formerly, PHP objects where being utilized as associative arrays rather than the way they should be used. Values were used to pass objects into functions instead of reference. This challenged the purpose of programming with object, according to Zeev Suraski. According to him ‘Objects and other types of values are not equal; therefore, Objects should be passed around by reference unless stated otherwise.”

So far PHP has struck a right chord with the developers. However, in a bid to make it more object oriented PHP 5.0 was evolved, based on the newest Zend Engine 2.0 release.

The Zend website provides an outline on how to use the Zend 2.0 Engine with the latest PHP 5.0 release. In the Zend 2.0 Engine, Andi Gutmans has treated Object very differently. Objects now will be dealt as object handles, indexed in a global object table.

This stirs up an important fact that should not be confused. That fact that the object handles will be passed by their value in the index table. This does not mean that the objects are being passed by value. The result is quite the opposite. The novel feature means that object handles will be passed by value and objects will be passed by reference.

Now PHP will perform functions like a proper Object Oriented language with this latest release of PHP 5. Objects acting like objects will now be of great advantage to the end users, as the overall functionality of the application gets enhanced. Consequently the application will run faster and the problems with regards to object orientation will reduce considerably. This means that large applications will be become easier to maintain and extend upon.

To facilitate PHP 5.0 with its new OO philosophy, Zend 2.0 has unleashed new offerings, like private member variables and methods, static variables and language level aggregation. PHP will now be able to interact with external component models, such as Java, COM/DCOM, and .Net.

This means that PHP now at a comfort level with Java and .Net environment, since the elements in these languages can be used transparently inside PHP, as if they were PHP components.

PHP 5.0 will use the identical interface for all objects, including native objects, ensuring that all objects in the application (i.e. PHP objects and overloaded objects) behave in a steady manner.

Besides PHP 5.0 will further find favor among the developers with its error handling capabilities so now your application can apprise the user of what the problems are.

PHP 5.0 is consistently evolving as the biggest plus point for web applications. With the use of the Zend Engine 2.0, large scale web applications using PHP 5.0 will perform better, thanks to PHP’s continuous drive towards object orientation.
