Value Contribution of Processes
Looking Over the Process of a Lean Improvement
During a Lean improvement of a process we dissect a process in detail. While doing so we list the following types of activities:
Value-Added Activities: These are those activities for which the customer is willing to pay for.
Non-Value-Added Activities: These are those activities for which the customer is not willing to pay for. They only add to cost and time. Non-value-added activities are also called "wastes," as delved in the last article. The focus should be to eliminate these non-value-added activities. Examples of non-value-added activities include all the eight wastes of Lean.
Business Value-Added Activities: These are those activities for which the customer is not willing to pay for but needs there for running of processes and the business. These business value-added activities could include work done on audits, control, reduce risk, for regulation or to support value added work.
Remember, both non-value-added and business value-added activities are wastes. However, we need to segregate them to give them a different treatment.
Taichi Ohno called all these non-value-added activities muda ("waste" in Japanese). Business value-added activities are called Type-1 muda while non-value-added activities are called Type-2 muda.
How to Separate Value-Added Activities from Non-Value-Added or Business Value-Added Activities
So, the question before us is how does one go about identifying value-added activities. Dissect a process and ask the following questions:
- Does the activity transform the form, feature, feeling and function that the customer is willing to pay for?
- Is it being done right the first time?
- Is this something the customer expects to pay for?
Remember, when you stop doing the value-added activity, the customers are going to complain, while eliminating a business value-added activity would lead to internal customers or regulators complaining.
What Action to Take Based on Each Activity Type During a Lean Transformation
Having identified and segregated the activities into three types, Table 1 summarizes the action that should have taken place during a Lean transformation:
|Activity Type
|Action During Lean
|Optimized and Standardized
|Business Value-Added
|Question and Reduce
A very effective metrics for measuring the non-value-added content in a process is Process Efficiency.
Process Efficiency (PE) = (Value Added Time X 100) / (Value Added Time + Non Value Added Time + Business Value Added Time)
Value-added time is the time spent on doing the value-added work in the process. While the denominator has lead time, which is the combination of value-added, non-value-added and business value-added time of the process.
This is an excellent metric to unfurl the waste optimization opportunity in a process. After carrying out a Lean improvement, it also tells the quantum of Lean improvement achieved. I have seen service processes have Process Efficiency that has been as low as .5 percent, while best-in-class service processes can be as high as 25 to 30 percent.

Our Donut readers are a canny bunch and they are always sharing their great business tips and advice with us. We have chosen our top three bits of advice from our followers.
Read on to hear what they had to say...
1. 'Asking questions will get you the performance you are after far more than dictating demands.' Tamar Telecom
Rory's comment:
This advice is spot on and is not heard often enough. Clients can give you brilliant insights into the market as a whole and what they really want themselves. Employees can give you insights into every aspect of your business. And suppliers can give you suggestions on how to get better value for money from them. A killer question is always "What would you do differently if you were me/us?"
2. 'Make time to work ON your business as well as working IN your business.' North Somerset Enterprise Agency
Rory's comment:
It is no coincidence that this snappy item of advice is a popular mantra: it is so true. Time and time again one sees businesses that spend the whole day every day lurching from one crisis to another. Plans and systems may sound dull, but they are a vital part of success. Likewise, it pays to make time regularly to go and talk to customers and other people who can give you good advice.
3. 'Don't undersell yourself. You want people to come to you for the best value, not for the best price!' Chris Toshi
Rory's comment:
Yes, people buy from people. The biggest selling point of any small business is usually YOU: your expertise, your enthusiasm, and the care you give to each and every customer. Buyers are prepared to pay the right price if they believe that you are the right person to buy from. If you cannot charge a sensible price, you are probably in the wrong market in the first place.
Thanks to all our Donut followers. We love to hear your brilliant tips and advice on Twitter.

I had the opportunity to become a member of the "Dude family" almost a year ago and today I'm proudly focused on smalls schools as a part of the Marketing team. My job is to educate small schools on the benefits of a work order and facilities usage software solution and on how it will improve the learning environment. I enjoy helping small schools feel confident in their decision to implement SchoolDude.
Small schools and small businesses are the pillars of a community. Both types of organizations have a way of not only bringing people together, but giving back to the community. I think you'll find it interesting to see how much these two organizations have in common and how important they are to your community.
Here are 3 traits small schools and businesses have in common.
Being the hub of community activity and a close knit family-oriented institution is a big obligation. For these reasons, small schools, like small businesses, take this obligation seriously and seem to have a more vested interest in their surroundings. Maybe because they are so close to leadership, or they take pride in owning some of the decisions, or maybe because they feel like they are looking out for family and friends.
Furthermore, small schools are vital to the community just like small businesses are to the economy and the proof is in the pudding.
Small Schools Double Down on Preventive Maintenance
According to our data, small schools do more than double the preventive maintenance work orders of medium and large schools and recover more costs from events that can go back into student programs and facility improvement, despite juggling more responsibility.
What do you think makes a small school more invested in maintaining school facilities? Let us know what you think and make sure to visit our small school resource page for information on how small schools are becoming stewards of their community.

Once again we see the double-sided system that has existed in this country for far too long. A system in which one set of laws applies to the masses and a completely different set exists for the powerful and the elites. "Equal justice under the law" is nothing more than a FARCE and MOCKERY!
Senator Conyers and Representative Franken both Democrats appear to have no intention of resigning from their public trust amid allegations of sexual misconduct which once again reflects that our rich and powerful in this nation think they are above the law. Nancy Pelosi and Church Shumer are busy defending both of these men when they SHOULD BE demanding their immediate resignations! What is happening is that the elites in DC are protecting their own. They are protecting their little "club."
We need to DEMAND that both of these men resign as they have now shown they cannot be trusted. Voters in their states need to immediately move to recall them and remove them from office if they don't.

Affirmative Statements of Declaration From the Depths of Creation. By Divinity.
We have received a request from Commander Ashtar to tell all the Lightworkers and Lightwarriors to keep doing the affirmation (below) on a daily basis, if possible more than once a day. This will help to trigger the Event.
Eventually doing mass meditation for the same affirmation will greatly help, you can setup groups for this purpose, timings are not really important, the number of people doing the affirmation at the same time can make the difference.
Love and Light!

2 Ann´s route planning20/02/2013 16:02
When Ann returned from Australia, I went to fetch her from Schiphol airport near Amsterdam. I don´t think I ever in my life was more emotional then the moment I saw her coming through into the arrivals hall.
I took her to a quiet managed campsite near the German border. There I showed her what I had bought and what I had done to the interior. A few days later when the GPS was working again we discussed where to go. We first went to Normandy.
It was going to be a long summer!

Chia seeds were prized by ancient cultures as a source of sustainable energy. In fact, "chia" is the ancient Mayan word for strength.
A tiny nutrition powerhouse, chia is rich in dietary fiber and contains significant amounts of minerals and vitamins. One ounce of chia seeds provides calcium, manganese, magnesium and phosphorus among other micronutrients, very little fat, and just 138 calories.
With a high amount of antioxidants and Omega-3 Fatty Acids, there are many health benefits associated with chia seeds.
Some studies indicate that people who regularly consume chia seeds have a lower risk for diabetes and heart disease.
Chia is considered energizing and hydrating, which is why the seeds are often added to teas, smoothies, kombucha, and sports drinks.
It's simple to add chia seeds to your diet. Since the seeds are bland, you can add them to just about any dish or beverage without changing its flavor.
Mix chia into puréed fruits, soups, oatmeal, pudding, or yogurt, or blend into a smoothie. Here's how to make chia pudding.
Chia seeds can be soaked in coconut water and added to baked goods. Ground chia seeds can be used as an egg replacer in baking, too.
Of course, you can always eat raw seeds, which are great on top of salads or mixed with other nuts and seeds.
If you're new to chia, start with about one tablespoon a day until you get used to the fiber content. A typical serving is 1.5 tablespoon twice a day, or about 20 grams.
Sip-for-delicious-sip, except for the color, you'll hardly notice the spinach in this green smoothie.
Frozen peaches create a slushy-sweet base further enhanced by apple juice. Chia seeds give an energizing boost to this yummy low-cal and nutrient rich beverage.
Perfectly refreshing after a long workout.
1 1/2 c. frozen peaches
1 c. apple juice
1/2 c. water
2 T. chia seeds
1 1/2 c. baby spinach leaves
Combine the peaches, apple juice, water, chia seeds, and spinach leaves in a blender; purée until smooth, about one minute. Serve immediately.
Lower Sugar Adaptations
*To make this recipe lowest in sugar, I recommend a beverage with a natural sweetener alternative. My favorite is this Bai. For a lower sugar alternative, consider using coconut water instead of apple juice.

Each type of licensed professional served by the SSP system has a custom framework that reflects DPS expectations for effective performance in that role. The framework to measure Professional Practice for SSPs contain indicators that are grouped into five expectations that align closely with the five Quality Standards from the Colorado Department of Education SSP system. Together they cover direct services to students and impact on overall school teams. The frameworks were developed in collaboration with a design team of SSPs and DCTA during a pilot of the system during the 2013-14 school year. After rolling out the system across DPS during the 2014-15 school year, the behaviors within each indicator in the frameworks have been extensively revised to ensure clarity and consistency.
Conversation Trackers
SSPs should receive Beginning-of-Year, Mid-Year and End-of-Year conversations throughout the year, in addition to ongoing meaningful feedback conversations based on observation and/or other review of their performance. In the absence of a central online system for tracking these conversations, we have created this conversation tracker to help you keep your notes organized throughout the year. After each conversation please ensure both SSP and evaluator have a copy of the file to refer back to, and to inform the ensuing conversations. At the end of the year, you will provide ratings and comments in Infor HR on the SSP's performance.

Observations in Whetstone Observation Tool
Whetstone is the new, collaborative observation and coaching tool for educators, inclusive of Teachers, Specialized Service Providers and School Leaders. This new tool includes enhanced communication and analytic features that make documentation and sharing simple, while helping educators work together to make progress toward their goals.
Whetstone is available at https://dps.whetstoneeducation.com/
Training resources are found by searching "Whetstone" in Schoology and within Whetstone itself under the "Learn" menu on the top toolbar.
As SSP roles and school building contexts are highly varied, the beginning-of-year conversation should be used to establish the most effective and comprehensive methods and frequency for an evaluator to observe and provide feedback to an SSP. Generally, evaluators of SSPs should expect to observe SSPs two times throughout the school year. Observation and data collection could include:
- Observing the employee while providing services or during meetings with other staff.
- Observing a student that receives direct services.
- Review of documentation.
- Conversations with the employee, staff, students or student's family.
- Other methods as agreed to – for ideas refer to the Sources of Evidence list in the Framework for each indicator.

Israel becomes adjusted to the American withdrawal "but in case Al-Assad does not emerge victorious"
Written by Nasser Kandil,
Dozens of reports and studies issued in Washington and Tel Aviv meet on one result regarding the decision of the American withdrawal; the Syrian President is close to his victory and the reaping of the fruits of his steadfastness. While Israel lives its worst situations since its birth as an entity seventy years ago. Veteran Middle East correspondent Elijah Magnier in Moon of Alabama site the most expanding site summarized the forthcoming scene by saying that "the United States is leaving, and the Arab Gulf states are coming back to Damascus to balance against Turkey. The Kurds will stay with Syria, and Idlib will be liberated". He concluded "Syria has advanced precise missiles that can hit any building in Israel. Assad also has an air defense system he would have never dreamt of before 2011 thanks to Israel's continuous violation of its airspace and its defiance of Russian authority. Hezbollah has constructed bases for its long and medium range precise missiles in the mountains, and has created a bond with Syria that it could never have established if not for the war. Iran has established a strategic brotherhood with Syria thanks to its role in defeating the regime change plan and an exceptional bond between Syria and Iraq has been built". He concluded "The anti-Israel axis has never been stronger than it is today. That is the result of 2011-2018 war imposed on Syria."
The Economist and the American Interest magazines met on reading the results of the American withdrawal. The US journalist Leon Hadar started his article published in the "National Interest magazine" saying "It is possible to understand the almost hysterical reactions among members of the Israeli political establishment and its media outlets to President Donald Trump's decision to evacuate 2,000 American soldiers from Syria. Israel would now be left alone without American protection. The Economist magazine said that it did not take long for America's decision to withdraw from Syria to be felt across the Middle East. The Syrian regime, along with its Russian and Iranian allies, rejoiced. Arab states hurried to make up with Syria's leader, Bashar al-Assad. The Arab League will soon debate his return to the fold. America's Kurdish allies, crying betrayal, urged him to help fend off a looming Turkish invasion. Israel scrambled to contain the damage."
How did Israel react to contain the damage is the fundamental question. The answer is through the dual round of the US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and the US National Security Advisor John Bolton to the region countries. This dual movement has one title "It is important that Al-Assad does not emerge victorious and Israel defeated". Therefore, the race towards Damascus among the Arabs, Kurds, and Turkey should not continue. It is required to coordinate the withdrawal in a way that ensures the smoothness of the successive steps to maintain a kind of Turkish-Kurdish-Arab integration that ensures that Syria will not emerge victorious, thus it averts Israel the bitter defeat.
Pompeo and Bolton suggested that "the Arabs should not return Syria immediately to the Arab League, but to set conditions, that the return must seem as Syria's compliance to Arab conditions". The quick surprising response was from Egypt which hosted the Head of the National Security in Syria the Major General Ali Al Mamlouk few days ago. The speech of the Egyptian Foreign Minister about conditions that must be met by Syria for the acceleration of the course of the political solution is practically a meaningless invitation, because the future of the political process on the parallel axis is governed by Turkey, therefore Egypt and Saudi Arabia's feeling of danger of Turkey's uniqueness in Syria must encourage them to open up to Syria. The only result is to raise doubts about the usefulness to respond to the efforts of openness. The public opinion in Syria refuses every return to the Arab League which was a partner in the conspiracy against Syria. It doubts the usefulness of tolerance and not setting conditions for the return as public apology and the compensation of the devastation resulted from the Arab position against Syria.
On the other hand, the Kurds have to stop giving offers to the Syrian government to avoid a Turkish military action that Washington ensures that it does not happen. While the Turks must stop attacking the areas under the Kurdish control in exchange for Washington's ensuring of their managing the Syrian opposition issue in Geneva path and supporting the groups affiliated to Turkey in Idlib. Bolton succeeded with the Kurdish leaderships, but he lost in Turkey, since Turkey has ensured the issue of the opposition from Moscow. Its groups in Idlib are falling in the face of Al Nusra front; therefore the only compensation is a role on the border areas at the expense of the armed Kurdish groups. Bolton lost because he is dealing with a country in the NATO and it cares of it interests, while Pompeo succeeded because he deals with governments that do not dare to put their interests above the US and the Israeli interests.
Certainly, the outcome will not be as the Israeli's wish. The Arab rulers may lose the opportunity to return to Syria through their League except under Syria's conditions. The Syrian army will enter Idlib and the Eastern of the Euphrates, while the Arab rulers at the Arab League will cry the loss of their role as their ancestors cried the loss of the rule of Andalusia, they are crying as the children for their role which they do not defend it as men.

Talking about death is always hard, regardless where you are. So we have Tan Seng Chuan, an active member of the Insurance and Financial Practitioners Association of Singapore (IFPAS), sharing more on legacy and the best ways to handle it especially in an Asian context, where death is a taboo topic.
According to MoneySense, "Estate planning is about how you want your estate—the money and savings you worked hard for—distributed after your death. It is about making sure that the people and causes you care about receive in accordance what you want to give them and in what proportion as well". In this article, below is the "L.E.G.A.C.Y" principles for one to take reference while doing their estate planning, and helping them move from success to significance:
Upon a person's demise, his or her assets will typically be frozen until the letter of probate or letter of administration is obtained for the distribution of the estate. In this case, having liquidity is the first thing in estate planning because expenses and fees such as taxes, probate fees, final expenses are easily paid from the estate. In addition, the distribution process may takes a while depending on the situation, and the family may also need funds to maintain their lifestyle & settle monthly expenses during this difficult period, having liquidity will ensure the above mentioned two situations are taken care of and the family standard of living will also not be too affected.
L also stands for the lasting power of attorney (LPA). According to MoneySense, "An LPA is a legal document that lets you (the donor) appoint one or more people you trust to be your donees" who "will act and make decisions on your behalf should you lose mental capacity one day". This LPA is important in estate planning as well because a person maybe mentally incapacitated before their demise, and their family members may not able to make legal decisions on their behalf. The LPA encompasses two broad areas of personal welfare and property & affairs. There are two type of LPA forms (Form 1 & 2), and one can find out more details and the processing of doing LPA via the Office of Public Guardian (OPG) website.
Apart from LPA, one should also consider Advance Care Planning (ACP) & the Advance Medical Directive (AMD) as well in estate planning, as this happens & kicks in before a person's demise just like LPA. The ACP & AMD allows one to express his or her wishes & preference for healthcare matters, and it will serve as a guide for the family members & medical caregivers to make decisions for the person when one is terminally ill and/or have lost their mental capacity to make end-of-life healthcare decisions.
The next thing that one should take note of in his/her estate planning should be the appointment of suitable candidate for the important roles of being an executor, guardian, deputy or a caregiver. Although it sounds easy, it may not be easy to find suitable & trusted candidates for these roles.
An executor will be responsible for carrying out the distribution wishes of a person according to his/her will after the grant of probate is obtained, and he/she needs to be over 21 years old, not a bankrupt and of sound mind. In a situation where the executor becomes bankrupt, mentally unsound or simply chooses to turn down the role after being nominated, it will be important to ensure that there is a replacement executor being named as a contingency, or even an executor like a law firm or a trust company.
Appointment of guardian is important for those with children below the age of 21, especially testamentary guardian in the event that both parents are no longer around. The guardian will be the one responsible for the custody of their children until the age of 21. The other important roles of a deputy & caregiver need to be considered seriously as well. The appointment of a deputy will be applicable if one has not done a LPA and will be useful for parents with children that have an intellectual disability.
In such a case, these parents may also apply to the court to appoint themselves as deputies for their children and another person as a successor deputy for their children, in case they have lost mental capacity or passed away. When applicable & necessary, the appointment of a caregiver for care giving needs of the care recipients (for children, elderly etc) should be planned for as well.
The third step in this process will be to gather an inventory list of all assets & liabilities, by taking stock of what one owns, one can have a better understanding of how to protect & distribute them. This inventory list will include things like bank account savings, fixed deposits, investment, properties, jewellery/artwork etc. with detail description and their respective values; as well as liabilities that includes loans/debts, credit cards, personal income taxes, mortgages etc. It is also important to note the amount CPF savings, the cash value & sum assured for insurance plans as well.
This is the most important and complicated step in this process, after the above mentioned three pointers, the next step is an assessment of one's situation, deciding on the distribution plan & instruction on using the various tools that are available & applicable. Some of these tools include: will, trust, CPF nomination & insurance nomination. By having a legal document through writing a will, it allows one to indicate his or her distribution plan & instruction of his or her estate much faster and more convenient way, instead of distribution via the Intestate Succession Act which typically takes more time and may not be what the person wants.
For better planning, control, privacy & creditor's protection, one can consider setting up a trust for the distribution to be managed by the trustee. Apart from will & trust, one should also do their CPF & insurance nominations as well. CPF does not fall within the scope of a will or trust, and doing a CPF nomination will allow the distribution of CPF savings to the named beneficiaries. By doing an insurance nomination (either via 49L or 49M nomination), it will bypass the administrative or probate process to speed up the pay out to the beneficiaries as well.
For Muslims, it is important to note that the administration of their estate will be in accordance to the Faraid (or the Muslim inheritance law), which is provided for under the Administration of Muslim Law Act (AMLA) administered by the Syariah Court in Singapore. For an individual with overseas assets, they may want to take note of the various foreign laws and taxation schemes like estate duty which may be applicable as well. One may also want to consider giving to charity in his or her estate planning as well. Depending on each individual's situation, wishes & size of the person's estate, the complexity of the estate planning will differ from person to person. Hence, it will be good to go through this process in detail with a competent & trusted practitioner to map out the estate planning and plan accordingly.
Just like regular reviews for financial planning, it is also important for one to conduct regular reviews of their estate planning & estate plan. In the event that there are changes to an individual's family or life stage like getting married/divorced; having children etc, one should review whether their estate planning are relevant with these changes; and more important in line with their distribution goals & objectives.
In addition, one should take note of estate preservation while conducting their review of their estate planning. This may include ensuring of sufficient risk management in the form of insurance (like health & medical insurance to pay for medical bills, plans to pay off estate duties for overseas property/assets) to minimize leakages in the forms of expense & taxes.
Contrary to the online slang of YOLO which sometimes embrace silly & dangerous behaviours, YOLO here means that we only have one life to live; and we should live our life to the fullest. However by always planning ahead and by working hard & doing proper financial planning, one can still enjoy successes in life and simultaneously achieve financial success, as well as spending quality time with their family & loved ones, and creating experiences & memories.
With proper estate planning, one can than move from success to significance: by passing their gift of love & achieving wealth transfer that transcend generations, and creating a legacy for themselves. By doing so, this is truly YOLO and living life to the fullest.
In conclusion, I hope the above mentioned "L.E.G.A.C.Y" principles are useful for your reference in your estate planning process. However, estate planning is an extensive and broad topic that entails more details that is beyond the scope of this article. Do work with a competent & trusted practitioner to go into details for estate planning, and I hope that you can move from success to significance with estate planning!

Eliminate Time Constraints That Hold You Back
Everyone has the same amount of time in a day. How well you manage your time greatly impacts your success. What many professionals don't realize, though, is that it's not enough to simply do the right things with your time. You must also avoid the wrong things. Rather than constantly getting distracted by email, social media, meetings or various other things that crop up in your day, learn to control and focus your attention.
Jason Fell, director of native content for Entrepreneur, learned a four-step process from Nir Eyal, the author of Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products, to eliminate distractions and break free from the time constraints that hold us back. We explore this process in this issue of Promotional Consultant Today.
Master your internal triggers. This is the first step to mastering your time, according to Eyal. We often allow ourselves to get distracted because of uncertainty, fear and frustration instead of thoughtfully doing what we intended. Instead of ignoring these triggers, we should identify the situation or emotion that's prompting us to waste time. When you feel the urge to scroll through social media, recognize the trigger and do something else instead. Make that phone call you've been delaying all week or pick up a book and read a few pages.
Track input in addition to output. Fell learned from Eyal that far too many people use to-do lists without considering the amount of time it takes to complete a task. To-do lists account for things you do, which is your output. Make sure you account for your output as well as your input-in other words, your time. If you don't define what you want to do with your time, then everything is a distraction. Eyal suggests mapping out your entire week down to the minute so you know the difference between action and distraction.
Eliminate external triggers that don't serve you. Those who work in an office know the workplace is full of distractions and interruptions. Eyal asserts that people need time to sit and contemplate away from distraction. He suggests that professionals "hack back" the external triggers that lead to distraction. You could turn off your personal email notifications and shut off notifications from apps such as Facebook and Instagram while you're at work. Designate a specific time during your day to check personal communications and stick to it.
Block out distractions with "pacts." Eyal says that pacts are ways to pre-commit to an outcome when you know you are likely to get distracted. You could work with a friend for a set period of time where you keep each other accountable. For example, when Eyal writes, he uses an app called Forest that prevents him from checking his phone.
By mastering internal triggers, scheduling time for output, hacking back external triggers and blocking distraction with pacts, you can manage your time and maximize your focus and productivity.

I've been with my boyfriend for four months and he's been acting more and more jealous. At first, I found it sweet, but this weekend he snooped through my phone and accused me of talking to other men.
I can tell you with complete honesty that I haven't talked to any other guys… the thought doesn't even cross my mind. I kept telling my boyfriend that I'm only interested in him, but he seems cold and withdrawn now. It's like I'm being punished for a crime I didn't commit.
Is this normal jealousy or is this something beyond? Can you tell me what to do when a guy is jealous?

Painted Bunting Trail
Freezing temperatures overnight, but it turned warm by the time we started a hike along the Painted Bunting Trail. This 2.5 mile hike is a mostly level, easy trail except for a few rocky portions. One walks through juniper, elm, persimmon, and live oak. The area was "cleared" with a prescribed burn a few years ago so the trees are fairly far apart with lots of lovely (dry) grass. We encountered a few people on horses and bikes and one other pair of hikers. A pleasant walk but no wildlife although we heard birds from time to time.

Heads up! We're working hard to be accurate – but these are unusual times, so please always check before heading out.
The best Downtown Los Angeles bars for perfect cocktails and quality dives
Downtown's become one of the city's biggest and best drinking destinations, with dozens of bars to choose from
By now, even the most Downtown-averse Angelenos have figured out that the neighborhood is one of the most exciting in L.A.—especially when it comes to drinking. As skyscrapers and loft apartments have shot up, an increase in outstanding restaurants, coffee shops, art galleries and museums have furthered the development of DTLA, making it a veritable destination, no matter how much you hate the traffic. With all of that innovation came a whole lot of watering holes, from perfectly dark dive bars, to upscale cocktail establishments and beer bars. There's a welcoming place to imbibe on almost every corner, and we found the very best of them for prime drinking—now, who's thirsty?
RECOMMENDED: See more in our guide to Downtown Los Angeles
The 19 best bars in Downtown L.A.
1. The NoMad
When the hospitality juggernaut landed in L.A., it had to live up to its world-class New York City counterpart. To our amazement, it did. We're thinking the awesomeness has something to do with the rigorously trained team, a massive yet expertly curated 40-drink menu and, oh yeah, one of the sexiest, moodiest interiors in all of Downtown. But the cocktails don't stop in the lobby: There's also a cheeky beverage program on the roof, where tiki-leaning cocktails and blended drinks arrive in plastic pineapples, and a coffee-cocktail program in the café once the sun sets. No matter the NoMad bar you visit, local, seasonal ingredients and house-made yogurt, tinctures and tonics brighten rare liquors for drinks so good you'll have to convince yourself to try something new each visit. (Even if they are around $20 a pop, they're worth the splurge.)
2. The Varnish
The Varnish—tucked inside Cole's and marked solely by the etching of a cocktail on the door—has managed to become not only influential in Downtown, but the bastion of this city's drinking culture. The space is small, so there's usually a wait, but you can bide your time by noshing on a Cole's French dip sandwich. Amidst the hushed jazz ditties and dim lighting, the Varnish's bartenders carefully craft vintage tipples with names like Bobby Burns, Paper Plane and Baker's Buck. Drinks are strong but well-balanced, the mood is sultry, and you can almost feel the history in every inch of Cole's.
3. Everson Royce Bar
The concrete exterior of this Arts District haunt seems intentionally nondescript. A neon sign above the door reads "BAR"—while the small plaque beside it, "everson royce bar, est. 2015," verifies the spot's identity. Inside, E.R.B. is bustling and bright, and a spacious patio out back offers ample seating for drinking, dining and stargazing. There's a lengthy spirits list, but we always prefer E.R.B.'s spirits mixed into concoctions like the Boss Bitch, made with vodka, ginger, lemon, honey, tumeric and cinnamon-coconut foam). If you're feeling peckish, you're in luck: E.R.B. whips up some of the city's best bar bites, such as the legendary, deceptively-simple Single Burger, and the flaky, craveable, perfectly salty buttermilk biscuits that would impress even the most Southern of grandmas.
4. Rudolph's Bar & Tea
Think tea time, but for adults: Located in the Freehand Hotel's gorgeous Arts and Crafts-inspired lobby, Rudolph's Bar & Tea offers a menu built around tea-infused cocktails—often internationally inspired—plus full tea service, if you're old-school, and light bites if you're hungry or simply looking for a way to sample some of the Exchange's Middle Eastern menu. Go solo with the daily punch or something from the list of for-one cocktails (we love the Tea N' Biscuits, with rooibos-infused gin, Grand Marnier, Carpano Antica and house-made bitters, served with delicate lemon cookies) or order for your group with large-format cocktails served from ornate teapots.
5. The Wolves
Stepping off of Spring Street and into this whimsical, ornate cocktail bar is like a trip to Paris—or maybe it's Victorian England. It's intentionally hard to pinpoint the exact locale, but regardless, the setting is transportive: Antique lamps, sconces and scultpures dot the space, while the show-stopping arches of stained-glass form the ceiling that hangs over you. Of course the cocktails—made almost entirely with in-house ingredients—are also like nothing else in Los Angeles. Beverage director Kevin Lee hand-batches the bar's vermouths, tinctures, bitters, amari and iqueurs, often always made with hyper-seasonal ingredients. This means that your new favorite cocktail—maybe the Korean Pear with Apple, made of rum, mezcal, sweet vermouth, apple liqueur, fresh Korean pear, mint, lime, cranberry bitters and bamboo fragrance—will only be around for a few short weeks. Better make the most of it.
6. Bar Clacson
Bar Clacson is what happens when the team behind 213 Hospitality opens a French- and Italian-classics cocktail hideaway in a city very much having a European moment. The nightlife heavyweight brought in an extensive amari collection, not to mention the bar group's usual preference for zero pretention, creating a laid-back spot where you're just as likely to sidle up to the bar and hunch over a strong negroni as you are to show up with a group for spritzes and a round of pétanque (think: bocce). The $5 aperitivo hour is one of DTLA's best happy hours, and if you change your mind and want a location that's a little flashier, there's always the Slipper Clutch, Bar Clacson's highball-focused hidden pinball bar.
7. Resident
Don't be alarmed to spot throngs of cool kids standing outside the old auto repair shop on Hewitt. They're probably here for some of the best live shows in the Arts District, or one of the best patios in the neighborhood. That, or the fantastic, funky drinks. Or maybe the chile verde potatoes served from a cart in the courtyard. Whatever the case, there's a lot to love about Resident, which feels almost like you've been plucked from L.A.'s now-chic warehouse district and into the heart of Austin.
8. Seven Grand
Arguably the city's premier destination for whiskey lovers, Seven Grand's atmosphere is of another era—one where hard-drinking businessmen escaped the doldrums of suburban existence and hung up their hats to drink, smoke and play pool. From the fox hunt wallpaper to an abundance of taxidermy, Seven Grand's sultry interior is crammed with all the character of a midcentury gentleman's club. If you're thinking an old-fashioned would complete the experience, you're correct, but you'll have to choose one first. The old-fashioned menu alone runs eight items deep and features only a fraction of Seven Grand's staggering selection. For Japanese whiskey fans, Bar Jackalope (a hidden cocktail lounge in back of Seven Grand) is equally as impressive—the Tokyo Highball made with Suntory Hakushu 12-year is a top pick.
9. Bar Franca
This European-inspired bar is casual, cute and, most importantly, full of great cocktails. Plants hang over shelves of imported amari, ingredients like salted-peach Campari make their way into drinks, and the service is always stellar. The space is soft—light pink walls, fresh flowers in vases, line sketches of women—and the drinks are some of the most complex in the neighborhood, flipping the bird to anyone who thinks femininity is boring.
10. In Sheep's Clothing
Walk through the nondescript door to the right after entering Lupetti Pizzeria and you'll find yourself in one of the coolest bars in the Arts District. Modeled after Japanese kissaten, audio-focused lounges and coffee shops, Lupetti's hidden gem In Sheep's Clothing is part listening lounge, part cocktail bar and part coffee concept. During the daytime, stop by for local pastries, single-origin pour overs and light, ambient records on rotation; in the evening, the all-vinyl playlist incorporates more active-listening albums to liven the space—and all music is curated by Zach Cowie, the music supervisor behind Master of None. Don't overlook the thoughtful cocktails, sakes, mescals and natural wines as you listen.
11. The Little Easy
At the Little Easy, where live jazz plays in a charming indoor courtyard dappled with chandelier light, you just might forget where you are—which, by the way, is inside the basement of Downtown's century-old Alexandria Hotel. Like in a scene straight out of NOLA's Garden District, authentic Cajun fare and expertly crafted libations give this place some real down-South cred. The Little Easy makes one of the best Ssazeracs in town; if you've never had one, you're in for a treat. Another classic to add to your tab is the Ramos gin fizz—here, that classic goes down all too easy.
12. Bernadette's
Bernadette's is the party bar Downtown needed. With palm-frond wallpaper, vintage kitsch and brightly-hued boozie slushies brimming to the top of branded glasses, it's a retro-inspired near-dive that's just plain fun. Bernadette's doesn't get snobby—it's all about beer and wine here, even when it comes to the cocktails, which are creative and wine- and beer-based—nor does it judge. Signs and practices around the bar make it known that this is an inclusive space for genderqueer and non-conforming guests, which is A-OK in our book.
13. La Cita
One of a handful of old-school Mexican watering holes Downtown, La Cita serves as a bar, restaurant and club, complete with a dance floor and an outdoor patio. Edgy dance-punks and celebrated DJs have called the red-velvet–adorned venue home, but you can still find diehard regulars sipping Modelos at happy hour—which happens to be every weekday from 4 to 9pm with themes like punk, cumbia, and yacht rock. Check their website for daily themed events and music lineup.
14. Wolf & Crane
If you're sick and tired of waiting 15 minutes for a craft cocktail, get yourself over to Wolf & Crane for a quick, uncomplicated drink tucked into Little Tokyo. You won't get sneered at for ordering a Johnnie Red and soda because there are other highballs on the menu just like it, not to mention inventive-but-comforting cocktails like the Mt. Fuji, made with rye, cognac, rosemary and apple and lemon. It's a casual, no-frills kind of place with communal tables, comic-book wallpaper and classic oldies bellowing from the sound system—perfect for when you've already had ramen from Shin-Sen-Gumi around the corner and are looking for a nightcap.
15. Rick's
No, you're not at a poolside retreat in the Spanish Riviera—you're in the heart of Downtown, sitting just a block from the Staples Center, but you'd never know it at Rick's. Hotel Figueroa is home to a handful of bars, all with their own unique menus, but it's the stylish poolside bar that we always gravitate toward. With frozen cocktails, plus micheladas, tiki-leaning concoctions and Cuban-style beers—perfect for sipping on the tiled patio overlooking the whole pool scene—it's like a mini getaway right under your nose.
16. Hank's Bar
We almost hate to put this spot on our list, for fear of blowing up the best DTLA dive there is. The streets around Hank's are constantly being rebuilt, but the old residential hotel that houses this dark saloon remains unchanged. The same can be said Hanks: divey yet approachable, unpredictable and charismatic, it's a little piece of the past in a neighborhood that's mostly anxious to press on towards the future. Old-timey photographs of black-and-white L.A. hang on the walls, while large leather booths in dark corners provide perfect cover when you want a quiet or more private night. Like we said, we hate that we're blowing up our spot right now.
17. Barcito
Tucked at the bottom of a towering condominium just blocks from Staples Center, this cozily modern Argentine bar-café merges Downtown sleek with old-world charm. An easy-going staff, house-made empanadas and sangria on tap succeed in transporting visitors to a corner café on a cobblestone street off the tourist beat. Perfect for a post-work nosh or pre-game tipple, the libations are fairly cheap—drinks run $6 to $14. Try the stone fruit sangria, which contains rosé wine and sits for two hours before being served, or the Yerba Brava, a refresher of lemon, honey and yerba-mate–infused vodka.
18. The Edison
This 11,000-square-foot power-plant-turned-Downtown hot spot deftly melds industrial architecture and Art Deco chic. Restored artifacts are casually displayed; silent video montages, projected on the wall, revisit the early work of film legends; bartenders handcraft classic cocktails. But nothing's stuffy here—it's a scene almost every night of the week, with party lounges, costumed events, and cocktails like the Mistress, made with amaro, prosecco, vodka, pomegranate and lemon. There's even regular programming—burlesque, famously, as well as DJs—in case you ever get bored with the space or the drinks (not that that'll happen).
19. Tony's Saloon
Located next to Pizzanista, Tony's Saloon is a no-frills favorite for Arts District denizens who come to play a few rounds of pool, down a couple well-crafted drinks and indulge in cheesy slices from the pizzeria next door. For those looking to challenge their drinking buddy to some friendly competition, there are darts and table tennis in addition to pool. And if you're hungry? Pair your Peroni with a piece of pizza—there's no food served in the bar, but you can order Pizzanista and bring into Tony's, then head to the back patio for some fresh air under twinkling lights.

Next monday is talk like a pirate day. The Monday after that Four Tet is doing a show, and the Monday after that the Mates of State are playing. (Both shows are at the Triple Rock.)
If anyone would like to acompany me to either show, please let me know. At this point I'm planning on going all by my lonesome.
What else has happened in my absense of titillating blog updates? Well, the biggest thing for those of you who have not already heard (and if you have not, please forgive me, I have not exactly wanted to talk about this), is that Laura and I broke up last Monday. It has now officially been a week, although I suppose technically it happened much later in the day.
She had been home for a little over a week at that point from her month in switzerland, and claims she just didn't miss me as much as she'd expected to while she was away. She did not treat "us" with much enthusiasm or respect in that week, and I knew pretty early that something was up. There were some unfortunate events which led up to the breakup itself that I have not decided whether or not to relay here. Let it suffice to say that she is obviously not having any problems "moving on", and clearly didn't find our four-year relationship (coupled with my birthday, for that matter) nearly as important as someone she'd only just met upon her return. Maybe someday I'll attempt to write a bit about how I feel our open relationship failed in that last week, but I'd rather just call it a lack of communication… something common in most floundering relationships, I'm sure. (Especially when one party is no doubt trying to decide whether they want it to be over.)
So anyway, lets hope the coming Mondays are better than last week's. And do let me know if you can make either of those shows.

In my home studio, I have the luxury of having 53″ wide seamless paper mounted to my ceiling which is great for your standard headshot or portrait. But what happens when you want to take something with a lot more color? I don't have the luxury of ARRI fresnel constant lights which would set me back a couple grand. I could gel a couple speedlites, barn-door them, and aim them at the seamless but there's the high chance one of three speedlites would misfire (oh, the joys of balling on a budget). I could also just go buy another roll of seamless in a variety of colors at $50 a pop, but I'm not shooting portraits on a hot-pink or orange background every day so that's a waste of space and money for me.
So, I head over to the local art supply store, Artist & Craftsman Supply, on Metropolitan Ave here in Brooklyn and pick up a handful of different pieces of 16×20 construction paper for a couple dollars each. Once they're back in my apartment I clamp them onto a Impact Telescopic Collapsible Reflector Holder, attached to an Avenger baby boom arm, on an Avenger stand. Easy enough.
For the lights and camera I'm using a single Yongnuo 560-IV speedlite remotely controlled from my camera with their YN-560TX trigger. That's also mounted on another Avenger stand with a boom arm, and the speedlite is inside a 26″ Westcott Rapidbox Octa with an egg-crate on the front. I'm bouncing the light with a little 5-in-1 round reflector to open up the shadows a bit just using the white-bounce. All of this shot on a Fujifilm 56mm attached to my Fujifilm XT-2, which I have an unnatural love for. The light is positioned up and to the right of the frame to get a good Rembrandt triangle on the opposing cheek.
On this particular night I had @kimiedaly and a couple friends over, we were drinking wine, carrying on, so I cranked the lights up to full power so I didn't have to turn off the lights upstairs. So I think (remember, wine) the camera was at ISO 200, F8, 1/250th, and the light was at full power 1/1. Our friend @cirstyscloset stopped in and hooked @luxxlily up with killer hair & makeup for the bright backdrops. Results below.
This is all roughly straight out of the camera with some mild color grading applied. If any of you happen to be a retoucher skilled in beauty shots, holler at me. I'm way more of a photographer than a retoucher.
So, this is far from perfect, but for a Saturday on a whim with some construction paper, a couple friends, some pizza from Big Ragu, a couple bottles of wine and a single speedlite in an hour and a half, I think we did alright.

"There are mysterious agencies of the human mind which, like roving gases, travel the world, causing pain and mutilation, without their owners having full awareness, or even any awareness at all, of the strength and the whereabouts of those exhalations. Possibly a saint might be known by the utter absence of such gaseous tentacles, but the ordinary person is naturally endowed with them, just as he is endowed with the ghostly power of appearing in other people's dreams. So it is that we can be terrors to each other, and people in lonely rooms suffer humiliation and even damage bacause of others in whose consciousness perhaps they scarcely figure at all."

"Of course, I am born again, I found Christ in 2006, I have always believed in Christ. But I must tell you I am not still perfect, he told the reporter.
"Being born again, means accepting Christ as your Lord and personal saviour. He didn't come to the world for the righteous, Christ came for the imperfect ones like me and you. I genuinely want to change, Christ is right there soliciting and interceding for me, because he is the way, the truth and the life. People fail to see that it is we, the imperfect, that Christ came for. I am extremely imperfect. I am not the stereotypical type of born again, I am the type that is aware of the love and grace" he explained.
When asked what he meant by being imperfect, he said; "Personally, I would not want to have sex before marriage but sometimes you fall and when you fall, you repent and beg God for forgiveness; it's not easy.
