Our online password generator located at https://horvathsoftware.com/OnlinePasswordGenerator.aspx has been updated with an improved user interface.  Unchanged in that passwords generated on this page are not stored anywhere on our web server.  You may control the behavior of the password generator by entering your desired parameters in the Online Password Generator web form.

Here's the list of input controls:

1. minPasswordLen - the minimum password length and when equal to the maxPasswordLen this sets the fixed password length.  When less than maxPasswordLen a random password length is generated between the two length settings.
2. maxPasswordLen - the maximum password length.
3. excludedSymbols - for passwords with symbols in them this controls what symbols are excluded unless the Allowed Instead checkbox is checked.  When Allowed Instead is checked then only the symbols in the text box are used when a symbol is added to the password.
4. AllowedInstead - this checkbox controls the behavior of the excludedSymbols text box.
5. PasswordCharacterSelections - this drop down list allows you to select your desired picks for each character of the password.  The settings on this control are self explanatory.

Also included are these buttons:

1. Generate Password - will generate a new password using the settings displayed in the input controls
2. Copy to clipboard - will copy the password textbox to your clipboard
3. Export to PRESS - will create an export file that is compatible with PRESS's import feature that will allow you to save any password to your password vault

As a way of mitigating possible false negative results in searching for foods in our food allergy checker, we have added a service of researching foods that are reported to not have any of your allergens. When you search and find a food that does not appear to have your allergens an email is sent to me that lets me know to research to see if none of your allergens are present in the food. A new table has been added to the database to track our research results and improve our messaging for foods that have been checked.

We want to help people with food allergies in their research of foods to find if a food is safe for them. Any ideas for improvements to the food allergy checker would be welcome comments. Currently as a start up we are not experiencing high volume of usage of the food allergy checker so some of the features like the Report tab of the checker really are not quite yet helping as much as they could if the crowd sourcing concept took off. (The idea behind the Report tab is that if a food is known to contain an allergen that is not listed in the ingredients on the labelling of the food our customers can add the allergen. This would make fewer false negatives by including the research our customers as a group are doing in their daily usage of the checker.)

As always thanks for reading our post and may your day be blessed!

Dear friends, this is the second letter I’m writing to you. In both letters I’m trying to refresh your memory.  I want you to remember the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and what the Lord and Savior commanded you through your apostles.  First, you must understand this: In the last days people who follow their own desires will appear. These disrespectful people will ridicule [God’s promise]  by saying, “What’s happened to his promise to return? Ever since our ancestors died, everything continues as it did from the beginning of the world.”  They are deliberately ignoring one fact: Because of God’s word, heaven and earth existed a long time ago. The earth [appeared] out of water and was kept alive by water.  Water also flooded and destroyed that world.  By God’s word, the present heaven and earth are designated to be burned. They are being kept until the day ungodly people will be judged and destroyed.  Dear friends, don’t ignore this fact: One day with the Lord is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day.  The Lord isn’t slow to do what he promised, as some people think. Rather, he is patient for your sake. He doesn’t want to destroy anyone but wants all people to have an opportunity to turn to him and change the way they think and act.  The day of the Lord will come like a thief. On that day heaven will pass away with a roaring sound. Everything that makes up the universe will burn and be destroyed. The earth and everything that people have done on it will be exposed.  All these things will be destroyed in this way. So think of the kind of holy and godly lives you must live as you look forward to the day of God and eagerly wait for it to come. When that day comes, heaven will be on fire and will be destroyed. Everything that makes up the universe will burn and melt. But we look forward to what God has promised—a new heaven and a new earth—a place where everything that has God’s approval lives. Therefore, dear friends, with this to look forward to, make every effort to have him find you at peace, without [spiritual] stains or blemishes.  Think of our Lord’s patience as an opportunity [for us] to be saved. This is what our dear brother Paul wrote to you about, using the wisdom God gave him. He talks about this subject in all his letters. Some things in his letters are hard to understand. Ignorant people and people who aren’t sure of what they believe distort what Paul says in his letters the same way they distort the rest of the Scriptures. These people will be destroyed. Dear friends, you already know these things. So be on your guard not to be carried away by the deception of people who have no principles. Then you won’t fall from your firm position. But grow in the good will and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Glory belongs to him now and for that eternal day! Amen.

Nicodemus was a Pharisee and a member of the Jewish council. He came to Jesus one night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that God has sent you as a teacher. No one can perform the miracles you perform unless God is with him.” Jesus replied to Nicodemus, “I can guarantee this truth: No one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.” Nicodemus asked him, “How can anyone be born when he’s an old man? He can’t go back inside his mother a second time to be born, can he?” Jesus answered Nicodemus, “I can guarantee this truth: No one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit. Flesh and blood give birth to flesh and blood, but the Spirit gives birth to things that are spiritual. Don’t be surprised when I tell you that all of you must be born from above. The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you don’t know where the wind comes from or where it’s going. That’s the way it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” Nicodemus replied, “How can that be?” Jesus told Nicodemus, “You’re a well-known teacher of Israel. Can’t you understand this? I can guarantee this truth: We know what we’re talking about, and we confirm what we’ve seen. Yet, you don’t accept our message. If you don’t believe me when I tell you about things on earth, how will you believe me when I tell you about things in heaven? No one has gone to heaven except the Son of Man, who came from heaven. “As Moses lifted up the snake [on a pole] in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up. Then everyone who believes in him will have eternal life.” God loved the world this way: He gave his only Son so that everyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but to save the world. Those who believe in him won’t be condemned. But those who don’t believe are already condemned because they don’t believe in God’s only Son. This is why people are condemned: The light came into the world. Yet, people loved the dark rather than the light because their actions were evil. People who do what is wrong hate the light and don’t come to the light. They don’t want their actions to be exposed. But people who do what is true come to the light so that the things they do for God may be clearly seen.
