The trip I don't really enjoy part 2!
They say Dimsum is a must in GuangZhou as it is from China. Without much homework done, I "china google" or baidu the nearest restaurant near our inn and found this.
Pretty nice looking place for Dimsum XD.
Chicken Jack was the one making the orders but some how he…
That's what he said..
and also order too many..
This is only half of the stuffs we ordered, the other half came after that but I didn't manage to take any photo of them.
Jack said Dim Sum is from China, and guaranteed we will like it so much that we finish in no time..
and he was so wrong.. O_O!! OMGG!!
The Dim Sum wasn't that great!! Even in Malaysia itself, you can find bad Malaysian food. The same goes to these dimsum. Only 2-3 dishes was awesome. The rest was bad. We're like forcing ourselves to finish them. @@
Then again, the aunties sitting at the same table with us was complimenting how good the food is. :/ Maybe their taste is different from our Malaysian taste.
We really had a hard time finishing them. The bros thought of a way to settle this.
By having me to eat them =.=
" RAWR!!! I'm not a eating machine!!! "
You know when you're in one group of friends, and there's always one fella that will gonna always picked on by the rest? Well, I'm that person. T_____________________T
After the disappointing breakfast, we took a walk around the place.
I kinda like the streets in Guang Zhou. They are all well cover with trees along the road. So it's very shady and nice to walk.
but there's one culture I don't like, it's their rudeness and Unfriendliness.
We have encountered so many incidents that pissed us so much that we want to flip all the tables in Guang Zhou.
RAWRR!!! Here in Guang Zhou, there is…
They just bump into you like not big deal and not very friendly at all!!
If you asked them for direction, they just pointed to that direction and walked away. =.=
Some how, we managed to find our way to the mall and chilled out.
more like sleep out.. =.=
And we ended up spend the whole evening in the mall. Sorry, no much photos as not in the mood of taking photos.
It was almost dinner time, so we visited another shopping street which has a weird name.
It's kinda like Bei Jing street but more dodgy.
and we got bored very fast, so decided to go to the restaurant at the end of the street.
From the map, it looks kinda far…
and walked
and walked
RAWR!!!! I think their term of "near" is "as long as you can walk and not die".
This is just ridiculous. =.=
Luckily, the dinner wasn't so bad.
We can haz Goose which taste like duck but more tender. XD
There's a saying that good local food usually are found by the road side like how our good food are found at the hawker stalls. And so I suggested…
Seriously!!! I saw this guy scooping stuffs like oil or something I don't know and don't wanna know from the drain to a bucket!! And he's using those scoop that scoop soup!! It is just EWWWWW…
I heard many bad things about street food in China but when you witnessed it, it's another level of ewwness.
Lucky, I did not have an nightmare that night. =.=
to be continued..
Currently I'm in Thailand 🙂 , do follow me up at twitter: @akiraceo and instagram: @akiraceo.
I will post many pictures 😀

Is forceful let-down the problem?
Does your baby do any of these things?
- Gag, choke, strangle, gulp, gasp, cough while nursing as though the milk is coming too fast
- Pull off the breast often while nursing
- Clamp down on the nipple at let-down to slow the flow of milk
- Make a clicking sound when nursing
- Spit up very often and/or tend to be very gassy
- Periodically refuse to nurse
- Dislike comfort nursing in general
If some of this sounds familiar to you, you may have a forceful let-down. This is often associated with too much milk (oversupply). Some mothers notice that the problems with fast letdown or oversupply don't start until 3-6 weeks of age. Forceful let-down runs the gamut from a minor inconvenience to a major problem, depending upon how severe it is and how it affects the nursing relationship.
What can I do about it?
There are essentially two ways you can go about remedying a forceful let-down: (1) help baby deal with the fast flow and (2) take measures to adjust your milk supply down to baby's needs. Since forceful let-down is generally a byproduct of oversupply, most moms will be working on both of these things. It may take a couple of weeks to see results from interventions for oversupply, so try to be patient and keep working on it.

Help baby deal with the fast milk flow
- Position baby so that she is nursing "uphill" in relation to mom's breast, where gravity is working against the flow of milk. The most effective positions are those where baby's head and throat are above the level of your nipple. Some nursing positions to try:
- Cradle hold, but with mom leaning back (a recliner or lots of pillows helps)
- Football hold, but with mom leaning back
- Baby sitting up and facing mom to nurse instead of lying down (good for nursing in public).
- Side lying position – this allows baby to dribble the extra milk out of her mouth when it's coming too fast
- Laid back positioning- in this position, mom is reclining comfortably and baby is on top (facing down), tummy to tummy with mom.
- Burp baby frequently if she is swallowing a lot of air.
- Nurse more frequently. This will reduce the amount of milk that accumulates between feedings, so feedings are more manageable for baby.
- Nurse when baby is sleepy and relaxed. Baby will suck more gently at this time, and the milk flow will be slower.
- Wait until let-down occurs, then take baby off the breast while at the same time catching the milk in a towel or cloth diaper. Once the flow slows, you can put your baby back to the breast.
- Pump or hand express until the flow of milk slows down, and then put baby to the breast. Use this only if nothing else is working, as it stimulates additional milk production. If you do this, try to express a little less milk each time until you are no longer expressing before nursing.
Adjust your supply to better match baby's needs
- Avoid trying to reduce milk supply during the first 4-6 weeks. This is a time period when your milk supply should be increasing rapidly, and it's not unusual for a small baby to have temporary issues with even a normal supply or letdown in the early weeks.
- If baby is gaining weight more quickly than average, then having baby nurse from only one breast per feeding may be helpful. If baby is not gaining weight well, then it's not a good idea to reduce milk supply before consulting experienced help.
- One method for decreasing milk supply without limiting baby's feeds is called block feeding.
- If baby finishes nursing on the first side and wants to continue breastfeeding, just put baby back onto the first side.
- If the unused side becomes uncomfortable, express a little milk until you're more comfortable and then use cool compresses – aim for expressing less milk each time until you are comfortable without expressing milk.
- Between feedings, try applying cool compresses to the breast (on for 30 minutes, off for at least an hour). This can discourage blood flow and milk production, and soothe discomfort.
- If block feeding is not working after a week, it may be helpful to get experienced help. There is a real possibility of decreasing milk supply too much by using block feeding, so you need to be cautious when using this.
- Do not restrict breastfeeding at all, but any time that baby needs to nurse simply keep putting baby back to the same side during that time period.
- See also: Block Feeding Dos and Don'ts by Nancy Mohrbacher, IBCLC, FILCA.
- Another method that has worked for some is switching sides more frequently during a feed. See this link for more information.
- A third method to consider is full drainage and block feeding (FDBF), where the breasts are first drained as much as possible (usually with a double electric breast pump), then block feeding is commenced, starting with around 3 hours per side. See this link for more information.
- Any time you are breastfeeding less frequently, keep a close eye out for plugged ducts and mastitis.
- Avoid extra breast stimulation, for example, unnecessary pumping, running the shower on your breasts for a long time or wearing breast shells.
- Additional measures that should only be used for extreme cases of oversupply include cabbage leaf compresses and herbs.
Even if these measures do not completely solve the problem, many moms find that their abundant supply and fast let-down will subside, at least to some extent, by about 12 weeks (give or take a bit). At this point, hormonal changes occur that make milk supply more stable and more in line with the amount of milk that baby needs.
Sometimes babies of moms with oversupply or fast let-down get very used to the fast flow and object when it normally slows somewhere between 3 weeks to 3 months. Even though your let-down may not be truly slow, it can still seem that way to baby. See Let-down Reflex: Too Slow? for tips.

A simple use-case:
1. Unhappy customer publishes Tweet containing negative sentiment.
2. Correlate Tweeter with frequent flyer membership.
3. Eight hours later, Tweeter receives feedback offer from vendor.
Is this automated marketing reaction, or is it just a coincidence?
If the former, it's a simple example of Event Processing – a single event detected, classified (sentiment), correlated with standing data and a response dispatched.

New Year's Resolutions for Small Businesses
Running your own business brings with it a lot of pride and the ability to set your own course – but it also brings a lot of stress and anxiety. Your own financial well-being and that of your employees is on your shoulders at all times. As we head into the new year, here are three New Year's resolutions you can make to help your small business grow and succeed in the new year.
Managed antivirus solutions
Considering that more than 60 percent of small businesses that have been hacked or the victims of viruses go out of business within six months, topping your list of New Year's resolutions for your small business should be protecting your computers and servers from viruses and malicious activity that can seriously impact your ability to do business.
An agile and reliable antivirus program can protect your business from intrusions, alerting you to potential threats, and preventing your computers and network from receiving malicious software, viruses, malware, and ransomware. Unlike unmanaged software-based antivirus programs, a managed solution makes sure that your system is free from risks.
Instead of leaving the vital protection of your network to a random staff member, our IT security professionals are able to focus on keeping your business secure. Computer Service Now provides industry-leading virus and malware protection, making sure that your antivirus solutions are active and that your subscriptions remain current.
Make education a priority
Staying up to date with the latest industry knowledge and trends is key to remaining on top of your game. Take advantage of online educational opportunities, conferences, and seminars to help keep yourself and your team competitive. No matter your industry, a quick Google search is sure to return a plethora of training and educational events across the country.
Want to conduct a company-wide training off-site? Rentacomputer.com's experts can help you with all of your computer, tablet, iPad, and other business meeting needs. No matter where your event is, Rentacomputer.com can help. Get a quote for all your equipment needs today!
Install or upgrade your security cameras
Security cameras can help you identify everyday lapses in protocols that undermine the integrity of your safety program. Catching these slips allows you to prevent injuries and helps remind employees that safety is a priority for your company. Additionally, security cameras can help you identify areas where additional precautions are needed or specific groups of employees that could benefit from additional safety training. Not only will you be more compliant with OSHA and industry regulatory standards, but you'll also be able to minimize injuries to employees that can lead to lost productivity for your company.
Camera Security Now is a leader in the workplace security camera industry and can provide long-term storage for all of your workplace security video for reference, training, and compliance purposes.

The World Classical Tamil Conference that was held in Coimbatore last month attracted lakhs of people, according to reports. The International Association of Tamil Research (IATR), which is an older academic organisation of international scholars and of which I am President, kept its independence from this Conference. I will explain here the reasons for this and also contemplate the future of the IATR and Tamil studies in general.
Circumstances that led to the formation of the World Classical Tamil Conference
In September 2009, I was informed that the Tamil Nadu government had decided to hold the 9th session of the IATR conference in January 2010 in Coimbatore. I was greatly surprised as I had not been consulted on this matter. For accepting the government's kind offer to sponsor our 9th Conference, I put forth the following as conditions.
1) A period of at least one year to organise the conference, as I felt it was impossible to organise any big international academic conference within four months. The earliest possible date of the Conference, I said, could be December 2010 or January 2011.
2) The clear demarcation of the academic sessions of the IATR conference from the political events and programmes associated with it.
3) The release for distribution by the Government of the five-volume Proceedings of the 8th IATR Conference held in 1995 in Thanjavur sponsored by the then State Government. These had been ready for distribution in 2005, but had been kept in the Tamil University despite repeated requests for their release to the present Government.
In response, the State Government postponed the Conference from January 2010 to June 2010, and accepted my second and third points. I was strongly urged to accept this offer, as the Government could not put off the date later than June 2010 in view of the expected State Assembly election. I however held to the position that the conference should not be held earlier than December 2010. Incidentally, in the case of the 14th World Sanskrit Conference that was successfully held in Japan in September 2009, the first circular was issued two years before the conference.
Having consulted many internationally reputed scholars in various countries on this matter and having secured their support, I sent my final answer to the Government in the negative — with a statement, however, that the Government could hold any Tamil Conference of its own, if it did not involve IATR. Accordingly, the Government decided to hold its own conference, the World Classical Tamil Conference, in June 2010 in Coimbatore.
History of the IATR and past conferences
The IATR was established by some eminent scholars who were deeply concerned about the development of Tamil studies on the occasion of the 26th International Congress of Orientalists held in New Delhi in 1964. The first IATR Conference was held in Kuala Lumpur in 1966, and the second in 1968 in Madras. The 1960s witnessed the culmination and triumph of the Dravidian Movement, and the government headed by C.N. Annadurai of the DMK was voted to power in 1967 — just before the IATR conference in Madras.
It was quite natural that the Madras conference turned out to be a massive political celebration of the victory of the Dravidian Movement, though the conference showed its strength academically too. Therefore, the political statement made by this academic conference was understandable and probably permissible, although politics cast a shadow over the following conferences held in Tamil Nadu. The 5th Conference held again in Tamil Nadu in 1981 in Madurai, under the sponsorship of the AIADMK Government, became a political show again as the government made it a platform for the forthcoming elections. The 6th Conference, which was held in Kuala Lumpur in 1987, was equally affected by regional politics, as it was attended by a large group of Tamil Nadu politicians.
Although I was absent from the 7th Conference held in Moka in Mauritius in 1989, I was elected President of IATR on that occasion. I therefore organised the 8th Conference held in Thanjavur in 1995 with the sponsorship offered by the Tamil Nadu Government. Although I tried my best to separate the academic session from the political programme, two lakh persons attended the closing ceremony held in the stadium. Moreover, the conference was spoiled by the deportation of some Sri Lankan scholars. Though I sent a letter of protest to the then Chief Minister asking for an explanation, I did not receive a reply.
Historical role of IATR
The Dravidian Movement, or the Non-Brahmin movement as it was called, arose in the 1910s spearheaded by the Justice Party. Language became the focus of the movement by the late 1930s, and great emphasis was placed on the economic and political struggle by the South (Dravidian) power against the North (Aryan) power. The movement demanded the overturning of the North/Aryan 'oppression' of the South/Dravidian.
From the 1970s, however, the situation changed in accordance with the changes in caste society and the gradual economic growth of the South. The Dravidian Movement could be said to have fulfilled its historical role to a certain extent. From the 1980s, we see a shift in the aims of the movement. The political mobilisations by the DMK and AIADMK, and their appeals to the regional sentiments of the Tamil people, were primarily aimed at the expansion of their political vote base.
The Proceedings volumes of the 8th IATR Conference held in Thanjavur in 1995 still remain in Tamil University without distribution. The World Classical Tamil Conference was the best opportunity for their distribution. In the Preface (of the Proceedings), I have suggested that IATR should change its structure, free its conferences from politics, and respond to new academic trends.
It is true that IATR had not been able to conduct the 9th Conference since 1995. However, it is important to note that IATR originally planned to hold the 8th Conference in London in 1992, but as that did not materialise, it recommended in Thanjavur in 1995 the U.K., U.S.A. or South Africa as the venue for the 9th Conference. However, none of the IATR national units of these countries came forward to invite IATR to hold the conference; they were daunted perhaps by the inevitable political overtones that enter the conferences.
As for new trends in research, the "Tamil Studies Conference" organised by the University of Toronto has held its fifth conference, although on a much smaller scale, in May 2010. Some workshops and seminars on specific areas have been held in various places in the last ten years. I do not deny the advantages of large conferences, provided they are free from politics. However, the time has come now for small-scale workshops and seminars for comparative studies with other fields, instead of big conferences covering all aspects of Tamil studies.
Renaissance for Tamil Studies?
The time has come for the IATR to assume a new avatar. It has completed its historical role by making people realise the importance of Tamil studies, just as the Dravidian Movement did in respect of its original objectives. A new IATR must now be created to function as a real academic body.
My only satisfaction as President of IATR and a lover of the Tamil people and culture who has devoted his life to Tamil studies is the conviction that IATR has defended its academic freedom by keeping its independence from the government-organised and politically oriented conference held last month in Coimbatore.
However, IATR must be resurrected in a new way. Its renaissance rests on the shoulders of young and sincere scholars of Tamil studies.

Make Your Own Marshmallow Peeps, Whether It's Easter or Not
Easter features some of the tastiest treats of all times like Cadbury Creme Eggs and Heavenly Hash. (But not Mini Eggs. Whoever invented those chalky chocolate tablets clearly didn't get Easter candy as a kid and is trying to punish the rest of us.)
Marshmallow Peeps may also be a traditional Easter candy, but they are still good on every other day on the calendar.

We advise against stocking up on Hairprint. Hairprint True Color Restorer is a natural product without chemical preservatives so it is best used when fresh.
This is the PLUS version of the True Color Restorer, which compared to the regular kit includes an extra Restore set (Restore powder + Restore liquid).
Permanent hair dyes were invented in 1907 and have barely changed since then. They were created at a time when there was less awareness of the harmful effects of the toxins, endocrine disruptors, coal tar dyes, carcinogens, and other chemicals that cause continual damage to the hair and scalp.
TO ENSURE OPTIMAL OUTCOME: Hairprint works when it has unobstructed access to the hair. To learn more about ingredients that may negatively impact your treatment please read our article on Residue-free Hair.
To help remove synthetic residues, oils and hard water minerals please use our Chelating Shampoo leading up to your Hairprint True Color Restorer Treatment. The Chelating Shampoo will act as a clarifying shampoo and will also remove calcification, lime, iron and other minerals that adhere to the cuticle of the hair and follicles of the scalp.
Most commercial and quite a few "natural" hair care products contain quaternary ammonium compounds (quats)*, proteins, and/or silicones, and some shampoos contain soap that can leave a residual build up on the hair. We created a complete line of shampoos and conditioners to remove the buildup and gunk, and ensure healthy, soft, clean hair and optimal results from Hairprint.
We created our Amla, Bamboo, and Kelp shampoos and conditioners for regular use. They are for both color-treated and virgin hair. Each formula is free of synthetic residues. They rinse away leaving healthy, soft, clean hair.
*What are quats? These are bromine or chlorine salts of ammonia that act as anti-static agents, disinfectants, and algaecides. Many natural hair care companies justify quats because they may be made from rapeseed or turnip oil. Quats can defrizz the hair and make it feel softer. However, it is the MSG of hair care: addictive and unnecessary. Quats are toxic to the fish that end up swimming in them when you wash it down the drain. What something is made from does not matter. What it ends up as does matter. Quats coat the hair and may gum up the follicle. They include cetrimonium chloride, behentrimonium chloride, and guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride. Healthy hair does not need synthetics. What is toxic to fish is not good for you either.
Here is the list of Hairprint's food-grade ingredients:1. Aqua (purified and deionized water).2. Bicarbonate of soda is what we use at home for baking and cleaning.3. Mucuna pruriens extract is made from velvet beans.4. Sodium carbonate is made from salt and limestone.5. Ferrous and manganese gluconate are both food supplements used in multi-vitamins.6. Hydrogen peroxide is made of oxygen and water and naturally occurs in the hair follicle.*7. Diatomaceous earth is a naturally occurring sedimentary rock made from ancient deposits of hard-shelled algae.8. Carbomer is an inert thickener used in shampoos and pharmaceutical products. Prepare Ingredients: Aqua, lauryl glucosides, sodium cocoamphoacetate, sodium carbonate, sodium citrate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, phenethyl alcohol. *The concentrations of hydrogen peroxide we use are between 1% and 1.5%, a fraction of what one gets in drugstore peroxide. In conventional hair dyes, peroxide is used to break open the hair, and can be up to a 12-15% concentration. When Hairprint is applied to your hair, the peroxide is gone in two minutes.
The purpose of a Transition is to protect chemically treated hair— whether highlighted, bleached or dyed—from getting into contact with Hairprint. We want to avoid treating it because chemically treated hair is damaged. The internal genetic template inside the cortex, what we call your hairprint, is missing due to the impact of the chemicals. Hairprint infuses the hair with its original pigment, eumelanin. The hair arranges the pigment using this internal structure. That structure determines how light refracts, and the way light refracts determines how we see color. Damaged hair cannot do this. When Hairprint is applied to damaged hair, your hair may turn darker or you may experience more dryness or brittleness due to pre-existing damage.
We recommend starting the transition when you have at least 1-2" of new growth that has not been dyed/chemically treated.
Directions: After thoroughly washing with the Pretreatment, cover all of the dyed/ chemically treated/damaged hair with a coating that will not come off during the application. We highly recommend shea butter. Do not use oils.Apply Hairprint as instructed to the uncoated areas. You may need to reapply this coating between steps of the application process. Take care to avoid getting coatings onto the hair you are applying Hairprint to. For those with longer hair, you may need assistance from a hair coloring professional or a highly skilled family member/friend to transition to Hairprint. If you make a transition now, your hair will be much healthier long into your life.

How Warsaw is moving from tech support to start-up central
A long-time favourite for back office operations, Warsaw is now putting itself on the map with its start-up credentials
Many of the entrepreneurs fueling Warsaw's growing start-up scene know a thing or two about big corporate culture.
The Polish capital owes much of its success in creating a skilled tech workforce to the presence of global corporates from Google and Samsung R&D, who have long based their back-end operations in the city, to more recent arrivals such as Goldman Sachs or JP Morgan Sachs who based their IT and technology centers in Warsaw.
Now, after learning the ropes as part of global tech teams, they're moving over to the start-up side to develop their own ideas.
"The experience and knowledge are there among young professionals who, by working for these firms, have had access to both global ideas and global tech," explains Tomasz Trzoslo, managing director JLL Poland and Central & Eastern Europe.
"This means that as Warsaw aims to build its own momentum, there's a solid base of skilled and talented people to tap into from across Poland."
Fintech leads the way
Their skills are in high demand among the city's diverse array of start-ups, ranging from online healthcare booking platform DocPlanner, preschool resource Frugoton and robot maker Robotics Inventions to its crowd of fintech firms catering for both business and consumer audiences.
Founded in 2016, Kredytmarket is an app-based lending platform offering shorter-term loans to entrepreneurs and small businesses, while ZenCard turns existing payment cards into loyalty and rewards cards.
On the consumer side, MAM's app tracks grocery purchases and allows consumers to collect credits to then use on their utility bills.
"There's a vibrant, fintech start-up community – which then goes full circle by becoming another magnet for corporates to move here," says Trzoslo. "Digital solutions are constantly under innovation and with much of it being fintech, it's an attractive place to be for multinationals."
Fintech start-ups are also catching the eye of investors. Take GIVT, which obtains compensation for customers for delayed or cancelled flights. Founded in 2017, the company has raised EUR 2.8 million since inception to develop a forecasting and flight scoring system.
"Capital to pursue new ideas is forthcoming and ranges from so-called angels to private equity to venture capital," he explains, pointing to funds such as Giza Polish Ventures and IdeaBox Capital. Experior Venture Funds and HardGamma are also active in providing capital to Warsaw's start-ups.
Looking for suitable workspace
Unlike other European cities, Warsaw's office market is yet to feel the impact of its growing start-up culture.
While coworking spaces and accelerators like AIP Warsaw and GammaRebels have set up in prime areas, Trzoslo says Warsaw is yet to see similar start-ups congregate and take over one area of the city.
Plus, with multinational firms historically favouring office campus locations around the city, it could hinder potential collaboration and interaction.
"Again, scale may help expediate this," Trzoslo says. "When we see a growing number of firms reach good sizes, then they will become meaningful in terms of office take-up.
"There's no reason why Warsaw cannot rise to that challenge in the coming years."
Keeping hold of local talent
One substantial challenge facing the city is, however, retaining its top talent. Warsaw – and Poland in general – has seen many of its young professionals move to other big European cities for better pay and opportunities.
A recently announced initiative by the Polish government to cut income tax from next year to zero for those aged under 26 could however mark a turning point.
"That should go some way to holding onto talent with advantages for Warsaw employers, particularly entrepreneurial start-ups who take on graduates," Trzoslo says. "Salaries may not need to be as competitive as they have been and, as well as the obvious advantages for under 26-year-olds, this could also significantly aide firms in their infancy."
The government is equally looking at boosting support for tech start-ups by pulling in global capital. The Polish Development Fund is to put 2.2 billion zloty (EUR 656 million) in joint ventures with private equity and venture capital firms, and a further 600 million zloty (EUR 138 million) in funds investing in midsize companies. While the plans are nationwide, it should have benefits for Warsaw's fledgling firms and mark the next stage of the city's start-up development, Trozslo says.
"It's fair to say that Warsaw now needs to prove that it's able to both welcome start-ups from abroad and foster the upscaling of its promising Polish startups," he concludes. "It's already one of Poland's two top start-up cities, alongside Kraków, but competition from the likes of Berlin means ongoing investment is essential."
