Crushing Work Marathons: a 3-Step Productivity Method for Avoiding All-Nighters
This is a guest post by Alistair Clark. He runs worklifefitness.co, a site that helps overworked professionals perform better at work, stay fit and healthy, and improve their work-life balance.
"I need this done for tomorrow morning, but don't spend too much time on it. I don't want you to be here all night."
These ominous words are what I heard before I pulled my first all-nighter.
It happened about four years ago while I was a management consultant. And I still remember how much it sucked. Starbucks coffee cups littered the desk. Takeout containers overflowed from the garbage. The glow of my computer screen lit up the windowless conference room.
I sat there for 12 hours straight, trying to do a week's worth of work before 9:00am.
I survived (barely).
The next day I floated through work in a semi-conscious state, counting down the hours until I could go home and sleep.
At that point in my life, I thought all-nighters were a "badge of honour." My friends in investment banking and management consulting all seemed to brag about how much they worked. I actually felt proud after my first all-nighter.
…I realize now how naive I was. Pulling an all-nighter might be one of the LEAST productive things you can do. Your work quality is crap, it wrecks your body, and it cripples your productivity for days afterwards. Avoid it at all costs.
But sometimes, it feels like working late is unavoidable. Maybe your boss drops a mountain of work on your desk at 5:00pm. Or maybe you've been procrastinating and are now working against a crazy deadline.
Whatever the reason, you've got a mountain of work to do and very little time. It might seem like the only option is to grab a coffee and stay up late.
I'm here to show you a better solution.
In this post I'm going to outline a three-step productivity method that I use for crushing work marathons so that I can avoid late nights and all-nighters completely.
But first, a quick story.
Back when I pulled my first all-nighter, I had no concept of time-management or productivity. My approach to work was to load up on caffeine and sugar and then put my head down and work until I was finished.
Unsurprisingly, this approach produced less than stellar results…I'd start strong, but then I'd lose focus and make silly mistakes. I'd get tired and go down pointless rabbit holes. My energy would spike and crash with each injection of caffeine or sugar. And worst of all, I'd be a wreck for the rest of the week.
A few weeks ago, I pulled another all-nighter. I didn't do this because my boss was breathing down my neck or because I had a pending deadline to hit. You see, I'm self-employed, so I set my hours and avoid working late at all costs.
I pulled an all-nighter so that you don't have to! I turned myself into a "human guinea pig" to test productivity, energy, and motivation hacks for my "All-Nighter Experiment."
I wanted to figure out a better way to crush work marathons so that you and my coaching clients can avoid working late altogether.
1. Begin with the End in Mind
I love diving into work. I love it so much that I'll often dive in without having a solid idea of what I need to do and what I'm trying to achieve.
I know that not having a plan is a productivity killer, but I can't help it sometimes. When faced with a ton of work to get done, everyone feels that pressure to get started as fast as possible and not waste any time.
After all, you're trying to avoid an all-nighter, so shouldn't you get started ASAP?
Over time, I've learned my lesson the hard way: it's worth taking a few minutes to plan before diving in.
While your goal might seem clear in your head when you start working, soon you'll be stuck in the weeds trying to remember what you're trying to actually do. You'll lose sight of the big picture.
The concept of "Begin with the End in Mind" will fix this problem.
It's a principle I've borrowed from Stephen Covey's The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, which sold over 25 million copies.
The short version is this: you need to develop a concrete vision of the exact end goal you are working towards before you do anything. Not just a vague inkling in your mind. A descriptive, written statement of exactly what you are trying to do, why you are trying to do it, and how you are going to do it.
Not only will this help you prioritize work, it will also give you a simple benchmark for determining when you're done.
For example, in writing this post, I know my end goal is a 2,500+ word article that outlines my three-step productivity method. Before I even touched the keyboard, I had already outlined the entire post. All I had to do after that was fill in the blanks.
But how do you figure out your end goal? What if you're at work and you're not exactly sure what your boss is asking for?
Here's the system I use to figure out my end goal:
Step #1 — Understand the Situation
The goal of this step is to turn the jumbled thoughts in your head into something concrete. I do this by asking myself a series of questions:
- What am I trying to do?
- Why am I trying to do this? OR Why did my boss / client ask for this?
- Is there a better way to achieve the same result?
Just as important as the "what" is the "why." Most people are vaguely clear on what they are trying to do (e.g., create a PowerPoint presentation), but few people take the extra step to think of why.
More often than not, you'll realize that there is a better way of achieving the same end result. You can save yourself a huge amount of time by taking five minutes and asking yourself a series of questions before diving into your work.
Step #2 — Clarify Your Understanding
This step applies more if you're in an office environment and doing work for someone else.
After you've got a firm handle on the situation, reiterate it to the person who assigned you the work. Not only does this ensure you aren't missing anything, but it also gives them a second chance to think about what they're asking you to do. They'll probably change their mind on a few things they asked for, which could end up saving you both a lot of time.
Step #3 — Write It Down
The last step is to take everything you've learned and summarize three things: what you're trying to do, why you're doing it, and how you're going to do it.
To do this I literally take out a piece of paper and write these three things down. Later on, if I ever feel like I'm lost or off track, I just stop working and revisit my end goal.
These three steps alone can turn your all-nighter work marathon into just a late night. But that's not good enough since we want to avoid working late altogether. Step #2 takes your plan one step further…
2. Zero-Based Scheduling
Alright. You have your end-goal and the what / why / how of the work, but we're not ready to dive in just yet.
You need a schedule. Why?
Well, two reasons:
- A schedule helps you estimate how long your mountain of work will take. It's much better to know you'll be here for an all-nighter BEFORE you get started so that you can either get some help or push back your deadline and avoid pulling an all-nighter.
- A schedule helps you stay on track and efficient. Without it, it's really easy to let the hours slip away from you and have your work take much longer than it needs to.
The strategy I use is called "zero-based scheduling."
I've borrowed the idea from a concept I learned while consulting called "zero-based budgeting".
Zero-based budgeting is a tool companies use for cost management. Basically, you start with a "zero base" of $0, and then add expenses one-by-one, justifying and analyzing each one as you go. Zero-based budgeting is becoming really popular for its ability to ruthlessly cut unnecessary costs that aren't critical to a company's end goal.
Zero-based scheduling works the same way, except instead of money, we're budgeting time.
Zero-based scheduling is a way to turn your mammoth 12-hour project into a four-hour sprint by stripping away everything that isn't absolutely necessary to your end goal.
You start with a blank calendar (i.e., $0 budget) and then start adding tasks to the calendar one by one. As with each cost in budgeting, each task is analyzed and justified to make sure it's absolutely necessary to achieve your end goal.
At the end you'll have a schedule that lays out from start to finish exactly what you'll do, in what order, and how long each activity will take. If you do it right, you can cut out a huge amount of unnecessary work before you even get started.
Here are three steps for applying zero-based scheduling the next time you have to get through a mountain of work:
Step #1 — Make a List of Everything That Needs to Get Done
The first step is to break down your monster project into bite-sized chunks. For example, the bite-sized "Import new data file" is better than the vague "Do Excel analysis." Continue breaking down your work until you have a list of the individual tasks required to reach your end goal.
The order of tasks doesn't matter at this point. Just make sure that everything is on there.
Now look at the list. Are there any shortcuts you could take? Does everything need to be finished with the same quality? Can you skip or delegate any steps?
Remember, focus on your end goal and fight to ignore your perfectionist tendencies.
If you want to stay productive and avoid working late, then be ruthless and keep this list as short, simple, and specific as possible.
Step #2 — Estimate How Long Each Task Will Take
Go down your list from top to bottom and estimate how many minutes each task will take.
Set aggressive goals.
Not only will this give you something to work towards, but totaling up the times will give you a rough estimate of when you'll be finished. This is especially useful if you're working against a deadline, since it's much better to know that you'll miss the deadline now instead of when you're halfway through the work and it's too late to do anything about it.
Step #3 — Order the Tasks
Take your list of tasks and put them in the order they need to be completed in. Just write a number from 1 to N next to each item.
Here are a few things to consider:
- Try to put your cognitive heavy lifting first since your mind will be fresh.
- Think about the dependencies — what needs to happen before / after another step?
- Does anyone else need to be involved (e.g., reviews or printing)? If so, make sure you schedule a buffer for other people's time.
- Depending on the complexity of the project, this could start looking like a mini-Gantt chart.
Step #4 — Schedule the Tasks
Here's what you have at this point: an ordered list of tasks, including how long each will take.
The next step is simple: put them on your calendar. I use Google Calendar for this, but you can use anything. Even a piece of paper. Just start from the time you'll be starting to work and schedule each task as a separate item.
If your estimates are accurate, you'll have a pretty good idea of when you'll be finished and also a nice benchmark to measure yourself against.
Finally, if you realize at this point that it will take you until 2:00pm tomorrow to finish your project, then it's time to call in the reinforcements or change the deadline and avoid that all-nighter.
By using these two techniques — Begin with the End in Mind and Zero-Based Scheduling — you'll have a rock-solid plan for getting through your work.
But planning without action is just intention.
It's time to actually get to work!
3. The Pomodoro Technique
The Pomodoro technique turns me into a work-crushing machine. I love it. It's my favourite productivity technique.
I first came across the Pomodoro technique through this post on Asian Efficiency. It's been a staple in my work toolbox ever since.
AE already has a huge amount of great information on the Pomodoro technique, so I won't go into detail on how it works.
But if you've never heard of it, here's an abbreviated summary:
The Pomodoro technique involves doing 25-minute chunks of highly focused work separated by five-minute breaks to refresh and recharge. Following four work cycles, you take a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes. Implementing the Pomodoro technique is simple:
- Choose a task to work on.
- Set your timer to 25 minutes.
- Work on the task until the timer goes off.
- Take a five-minute break.
- For every four Pomodoros take a longer break (15 to 30 minutes).
Here's what a typical Pomodoro cycle looks like:
During my All-Nighter Experiment I completed 20 individual 25-minute Pomodoros between 8PM and 8AM. That's 8h20m of 100% focused and productive work, and I felt fresh and sharp the entire time.
The secret is the breaks. They help you disengage from the work and mentally recharge.
To track my Pomodoros, I used the MarinaraTimer. It keeps track of the history of your Pomodoro cycles, so you have a good measure of how productive you've been. Here's a screenshot of the MarinaraTimer from my All-Nighter Experiment:
Instead of talking more about why I love Pomodoros so much, I'll tell you two little tricks that I use to amplify the effects.
Trick #1 — Use Brain.FM During the Work Blocks
brain.fm is an online music service designed to dramatically improve your focus, relaxation, and sleep. I listen to it whenever I'm working (in fact, I'm listening to it right now). The music isn't really music at all; it's magical rhythmic noise that puts me into a hypnotic work trance.
It's much better than listening to typical music, because I usually get distracted by the lyrics or beats.
I can't vouch for the science behind the idea, but I can say that it works great for me. It's a paid service, but they have a free trial.
Trick #2 — Use Exercise Circuits During the Break Blocks
The biggest mistake people make with Pomodoros is that they don't take a real break. Instead, they'll pull out their phone or open a new tab and scroll through Facebook.
The problem with this approach is that you're not really giving yourself a break at all. You're still staring at a screen and your brain is still processing information.
Instead, my rule for breaks is that I have to get up and leave my desk. Here's what I'll do during the breaks:
- Five-minute break: go to the bathroom, get a drink, stretch, go for a lap around the office, meditate.
- 15-30 minute break: exercise.
I'm going to focus on what I do for the 15-30 minute break. Exercise is the single best way I've found for waking up my mind and staying productive. Way better than coffee and other stimulants I've tried.
Here's what I do: during the 15-30 minute break, I get out of my chair and do something to get my heart pumping. I keep it simple with push ups, bodyweight squats, or jumping jacks. If you're in an office environment, climbing stairs is a good alternative.
Experts agree that it doesn't matter what you do, just move.
The effects of a physical workout on your brain and productivity can't be overstated. In the same way that a quick, 20-minute workout can help your brain directly before an exam, exercise can help boost your brain's ability to learn and retain information, as well as improving creative thinking. We call this trait neuroplasticity.
You don't want to exhaust yourself with a full body workout, of course. However, going for a walk, doing a few pushups or jumping jacks, or something to get your blood flowing will help keep your brain on the right track. This is a basic physiological response to thousands of years of evolution: if prehistoric humans fell asleep while running from danger, chances are they wouldn't live very long. When your body is exerting physical energy, it signals to your brain that now is the time to be alert and focused, not to drift off to dreamland.
That's it. These three techniques can help you crush your work marathons and stay productive by avoiding late-night work.
Getting Started
The next time you have a mountain of work to get through, try these three techniques:
- Begin with the End in Mind
- Zero-Based Scheduling
- The Pomodoro Technique
Make it easy. Take 15 minutes for #1 and #2 and then use Pomdoros until you're finished.

Wow, Alistair, your story was almost painful to read, but I guess this is what happens to a lot of people who are self employed. It's only when exhaustion takes its toll you realize you need to work better, not more.
Thank you for sharing your system, your piece was very insightful.

Here is a list of common touch points - points of interaction that your business has with customers - that can take your insight - and service - to the next level.
1. Sales receipts
Yes, believe it or not, this is a way to interact with your customers. I mean, what else are they guaranteed to have in their hand at one point or another? Write a more personal, customized note on sales receipts as opposed to simply slapping your logo onto generic forms. If you can't do that, create stickers or custom post-it notes to add to the receipt by hand (if the sale is in-store). Ask questions, encourage customers to contact you via email or the web; if you collect email addresses (why aren't you collecting email addresses??) encourage them to sign up with a call-to-action on the receipt. And of course, be genuine and thank them for their business.
2. Surveys
Put a survey up on a free service like Survey Monkey and encourage feedback with a prize for completing the survey. Ask questions about your products, the variety, the price points, service, delivery time - these tools are available: USE THEM!!
3. Email
Use any piece of material that gets into your customers hands to drive them to your website or sign up with their email (see sales receipts, for example). You don't need to send them a weekly 10-page newsletter. Quite the opposite. Make it occasional but GOOD! Make the content count. Create interest. Ask questions. Encourage interaction via social media. CROSS PROMOTION of all your touch points is key.
4. Social media
If you are using social media as just another platform to blast information AT your customer and target audience, you need to stop NOW! Balancing information with your sales pitch is essential to have any traction in social media. Think of this platform as a way to share with friends. Encourage conversations, ask questions, comment on things of interest to your area of business. Don't be afraid to contact people directly through replies or shares or comments - that is why those features were created!
Just because you are a business and represent your brand, doesn't mean you can't interact like a human. In fact - that is highly recommended. Once the dialogue starts flowing, you can use social platforms for feedback as well. Show new stock, preview products coming in, create excitement.
Contests, coupons, quizzes are also easy to create and post on social media sites.
5. In person
First and foremost, make sure you are 100% focused on the customer you are serving. Secondly, when they are paying for their purchase, why not have a quick question prepared to ask during the process? Might as well put that chit chat to good use! Ask them if there is anything other product they would like to see stocked. Ask them how often they come into the store. Ask them what they purchase most often. One question asked to each customer can yield some great insight and it isn't much of an intrusion since they are already engaged and in a conversation. Just don't bombard them with an impromptu game of 20 questions; save that for the survey I mentioned above.
The takeaway: These are some simple yet effective ways to take your engagement with your customers to the next level. It really comes down to listening...really listening, and not being afraid of what you might hear. But that's a topic for another post. :-)
Best of luck!
PS - How about signing up with your email on my site? You'll receive notification first about these awesome little posts to help your business grow by connecting better with your customers. :-)

Police have released a video resource on scamming and are encouraging older New Zealanders to take heed in order to protect themselves from losing money.
National Manager Crime Prevention, Superintendent Bruce Bird said older people can be particularly vulnerable to fall victim to fake promises and offers.
"Retirees may have spare capital for investment, they may be travelling more and booking holidays online, they may be new to online dating or buying goods online and this makes them vulnerable to online scams," said Mr Bird.
"Often they have cash on them and are more likely to be home during the day. This also makes them vulnerable to door-to-door scammers."
He encourages younger people to share the video with their relatives to help protect them.
Police have summarised the video into a list of tips:
- The numbers and ways of being scammed is growing and it can seem daunting trying to weed the scams from bona fide offers.
- If something sounds too good to be true it usually is. Don't respond to letters or emails saying you won the lottery - you haven't - it is always a scam.
- If you are offered a deal or you are interested in investing in then you need to spend some time researching it to make sure it is genuine.
- Talk to people you can trust about it, friends and family or if it is an investment opportunity, a qualified financial expert. This may involve a fee, but it is better to have done this than to lose your life-savings.
- Don't get pressured into making a decision. If someone is offering you a bona-fide deal and they are genuine then they will wait for you to check it out - in fact they should encourage you to check it out.
- Remember it is unlikely you will get your money back once you have given it to a scammer.
- If you or someone you know has been scammed you need to report it as soon as possible.
- Go to scamwatch.co.nz to report a scam.
- If you have lost a large amount of money you should report it to Police as well. Unfortunately since many scammers operate from overseas it is unlikely we will be able to recover your money, but we can try and warn others about the scam.

We need your help to complete this project, please read, share and if Possible, Please donate below.
Part 2.
Thursday 23 October… Another milestone reached. This morning, more than 45 metres below ground, we hit Water…
So, The drilling now comes to an end, No more pictures of men below ground throwing out buckets of sand, no spitting and puffing from an old generator and no more listening to the repetitive thud of an old drill forcing open the ground… It really is the most primitive of equipment, it keeps breaking down, it has been mended more times but it's all there is, and they manage to use it successfully… obviously. So now, we have water…
Tomorrow, Friday, is a day of rest… Back at it again on Saturday. Next in line is the submersion of the pump which will then feed the water up to a de-salination /filtration system, which is being constructed as we speak and will arrive to the site over the weekend. Once in place, and the water is tested etc, a distribution stand with taps will be erected and water … Fresh, clean, free, deserved water will flow and flow and flow, Insh;allah…
The children of the village are getting more and more excited each day, the numbers of adults strolling over for a look is growing, and therefore the invitations for more sweet tea and coffee, (which is never turned down) also grows….
But this is all part of life, new life, new friends, solidarity between countries, and hope for the future. Although we are " Irish in Gaza", and very proud to be, We are fortunate to have friends and supporters all over the world.
We still need your help, We still need your donations. Your support will benefit more than 5000 people in this one village alone and hopefully much more in the future … Long term , sustainable support in one of the most vital basic human needs, human rights … Water means life.
Please continue to support the project here: http://wp.me/PsaGo-1by
Remember , You can still order t-shirts also; https://irishingaza.wordpress.com/2014/08/28/irish-in-gaza-t-shirts/
Note to the Irish:, We cordially decline your kind offer to send MR. Tierney or other members of the Irish water board over to help, The Palestinians have enough problems of their own, Thanks… 😉

Uncovered Metaphysical Properties – The Ancient Secret of Gold
Metaphysical properties of gold
Gold is revered for centuries and until recently we never knew why. Today, the research confirms that advanced understanding of monoatomic elements in gold, which already knew cultures like the Egyptians thousands of years ago.
Ancient texts have shown that the Pharaohs were monatomic gold, when they were considered the spiritual enlightenment worthy fed. It was assumed that it was too important to feed 'ordinary' people so, as it claims to give awareness and increased service life.
Old priestly scientists knew about the improvements of monoatomic element for the body and therefore for the DNA. For the elect it meant to transcend the mind into a higher state of evolution.
From the Sumerians was narrated that the gods or Anunnaki, came down from heaven and humanity by sowing and only a select few people have been identified as "representatives" of the gods to govern.
The "ancient" were in the knowledge that we have a physical body and spiritual or etheric body, and so they recognized the importance in the diet of both. They enjoyed a healthy diet because of their farming methods and mineral-rich year flood, which fed their physical body, and thereby also consuming monatomic elements (due to floods), which fed their subtle body, helping in their spiritual growth and awareness development.
Are there any advantages of gold?
• Increased spiritual consciousness and psychic phenomenon *
• Enables the Kundalini in the body *
• The activation of the light "ka" body *
• Accelerated manifestation of goals *
• Supports mental development *
• Increased production of neurotransmitters. *
• Increased clarity dream *
• Increased synchronicity in life *
• Clearer mental focus *
• Increased metabolic rate and cell renewal *
• DNA Awakening & Healing *

Froggy is definitely having eye deviations again. It's nap time, but she couldn't fall asleep, because everytime she'd start to close her eyes, they'd roll up into her head, and it would wake her up.
I'm so discouraged. I've called and emailed the neurologist. Now I'm just waiting to find out about yet a new medication. She's on two so far. So we'll introduce a third, I guess. I know our lives will never be perfect, but it would be nice to have a few less obstacles. If only to catch our breath.

Nothing makes a generator look more tempting than a days-long power outage in a 100-degree heat wave.
Arnold Friedlander's Winn Electric Contracting in Timonium was so flooded with calls early this month that staffers are still working their way through the backlog of requests for estimates and installations.
Selling and setting up home-standby generators — the nonportable kind — is a regular but usually small slice of the company's work, which ranges from lighting to computer wiring. Then the damaging derecho storm blew through the region June 29, leaving about 675,000 in the Baltimore area without power, some for up to nine days.
Friedlander, 48, co-founded the company 26 years ago. The master electrician got his start at age 11 working at an uncle's hardware store, learning about sales and the names of all the specialized products he would later need to use.
The Reisterstown resident and father of two talked with The Baltimore Sun recently about the storm's effect on his 16-person business, who's asking for generators and how to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
What happened to business after the derecho storm hit?
After the storm, the phones started ringing.
A lot of people out of power for five to eight days were calling for estimates on generators. Some of them were calling because their generators ran for a few hours or a few days and then quit.
In a four-day outage, all of a sudden a generator may turn off because it's low on oil. … You don't want to overfill it; some people did that, and therefore the generator didn't restart. So we would come out, check it, drain some oil or whatever it needed — help people out.
We're giving a lot of quotes on units, giving people all the facts. Some people just have no clue what's involved with doing a generator. Some people, it's more than they want to spend, and that's it.
How many calls do you normally get in a week from people thinking of buying a generator?
Maybe half a dozen or a dozen a week [from] people who want to get estimates on a generator. After a storm like this, we were getting 50 to 75 a day.
After [Hurricane Irene], the storm of August to September, we were probably getting maybe 30, 40 calls a day. … Now that [a bad] storm hit again, all the people that were undecided are saying, "I want an estimate."
What were people saying? Did they want a generator just because of this long outage?
Pretty much. They all are just fed up.
When is — and isn't — a generator a good idea for a customer?
What it comes down to is what you want to spend. … You can do something for as low as under $4,000, and then you have people spending $6,000 to $8,000 to do the average house, and then you get some people that have all-electric heat that have no choice, they need to pick up the whole entire house, and they may need to spend anywhere from $25,000 to $50,000.
It's not whether someone has the money or not, it's whether their power goes out enough that they can justify spending that $6,000, $8,000, $10,000 for a generator. I have customers who call me up every time the power goes out, wishing they [had] a generator. They have the money, but [they ultimately decide], "I'll go to a hotel if the power goes out." Well, this time the power was out so long, people couldn't find a hotel.
[Also], if you're on a well, if you have no electric you have no water.
Do you have a generator for your home?
Nope. My power never goes out. [The last] 17 years, I lost power only two times, for like 10 minutes. Because everything's pretty much underground from the substation out to where I live.
What are the safety implications of having a generator? What does an owner need to do to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, for instance?
The generator has to be five feet away from a window, and it cannot be under a deck. So they have to have clearance around them.
If you have gas in the house or any gas appliances, you should have a carbon monoxide sensor on each floor of the house, regardless of whether you have a generator or not.
What generators do you sell?
Generac generators and Kohler generators. … We sell 100 Generacs for one Kohler. Now we're working with Kohler to sell more of their units, and we've got the pricing down to be very similar.
What work do you do when you're not installing generators?
We're the guy, after you buy that new house, you call us to come out and hang your fixtures and your chandeliers. … We're a general practitioner. We do everything.
The generator business is a nice part of what we do, but it's only probably 10 percent.
Outside of power-outage periods, when people are just fed up, what sort of customers are coming to you for generators?
Pretty much everybody. We're getting calls from people that are in modest neighborhoods [and] the people in multimillion-dollar homes.
You can't do a generator for a townhouse; most of them, they're too close together. … Some neighborhoods, you have to get authorization from the neighborhood association before you can do it. They want to make sure the noise levels will be proper.
When the power goes out, do you think, "Oh boy, generator sales!"?
I think, "Oh my God."
This storm and the last storm, they both happened on a weekend. … Nobody had full manpower. I brought guys in Saturday, but … I didn't have full crews back until Monday.
Here's a problem nobody thinks about: You lose power and you call somebody in the middle of the night … [but] a lot of roads are blocked by trees and power lines, and we can't even get out to help you.
These last two storms, the damage was so bad and so many roads were closed, to go someplace that should be a 10-minute ride was taking an hour.
If [you own a generator], you know a big storm's coming and you haven't had any real outages [for months], I would test the generator to make sure it's working before the storm. If you're not capable, put in a service call so somebody can test it for you.
You need to change that battery before you break down. … We had every one of our trucks carrying oil and batteries.

People associate me with lots of things: fashion, blogging, fashion, pornstar martinis, fashion, an endless stream of Twitter drivel, fashion, Mexican food, fashion, an unhealthy obsession with G.Nev, fashion....
But I don't think anybody would ever associate me with open water swimming.
I've had a rough few years of health, but after a year of consistent wellness I was discharged from hospital at the beginning of April this year. I'm 26 and this is the first time in my adult life that I haven't been under the watchful eye of a maxilliofacial department. It's an amazing feeling to be free.
Now that I'm privileged enough to be the owner of a healthy, functioning body, I want to put it to good use. And I want to raise money for a good cause.
So what did I do?
I put myself forward for three open water swimming challenges. Of course!
I've never swum in a lake. I've never worn a wetsuit. I've never trained for anything. Ever. I mean bloody hell, I've truly never been physically fit in my entire life.
But I've joined a pool. I've got a swimming coach. I have permanent goggle marks on my face. And no matter how hard it is I'm going to RUDDY WELL DO THIS.
Let it be known now that I'm not going to enjoy this 'summer of swimming'. Physical activity does not come naturally to me. Illness was a convenient excuse for the last few years, but I wasn't exactly god's gift to PE when I was younger. The fat girl that drops the baton and ruins the relay for everyone? That's me. One sports day my official role was "ringing the bell". So yeah, sports challenges aren't 'my thing'.
My swims will gradually get harder and the first one is frighteningly soon. I haven't really thought about this. Oh god.
These are when they are:
Eton Dorney - 27th May - 1.5k
Lake Windermere - 16th June - 1 mile.
River Thames - 21st July - 2.25 MILES
Open water swimming isn't like swimming in a pool. Or at least that's what people keep telling me, I've never done it so I have no idea except for the recurrent nightmare that I'm already having where I simultaneously get kicked in the face by a fellow swimmer whilst having an asthma attack whilst getting my foot caught in weeds and drowning. (SCARY SCARY SCARY).
It will be cold. It will be dirty. There'll be currents. There'll be waves. There'll be twenty billion other swimmers front crawling all over me. Almost certainly an eel electrocuting me. I probably won't even be there tbh as I won't have been able to get my wetsuit on without help from my mum.
I've chosen to raise money for Barnardo's - the UK's largest children's charity.
As these events are by different organisers, I'm not taking a Barnardo's place at each one, I've entered each race privately and I'm asking (begging!) for lovely sexy gorgeous people like you to sponsor me for the whole thing as one 'challenge'.
Why Barnardo's?
The work Barnardo's does is exceptionally important. They speak up for and support the UK's most vulnerable children and young people.
Child poverty in the UK is something that people often fail to appreciate exists. It's remarkable to think that there is so much injustice and inequality in this great, developed nation. But Banardo's believe in all children – and if it wasn't for them many young people wouldn't stand a chance.
Barnardo's run over 800 vital services across the UK and they help to transform the lives of more than 190,000 children, young people and their families every single year. It's terrible that they have to, but vital that they do.
My mother has worked in child protection for as long as I can remember and my boyfriend's mother has volunteered at Barnardo's for over 30 years, so I know exactly how important their services are. Thousands of young people rely on Barnardo's every day.
The work Barnardo's does is extensive, they work with people across many groups including children in care and on the child protection register.
These are just some of the issues that children being helped by Barnardo's in the past year have faced: child sexual exploitation, child poverty, caring for an ill member of the family, not being in education, employment or training, disability, struggling at school because of home circumstances, being in care, adoption or fostering.
And for every £1 raised by Barnardo's, 95p is spent on charitable expenditure. (A stat that isn't easily rivalled by many other charities).
So please help!
I didn't know how much to set as a target but my uncle thinks I should be aiming for £1000 per event, so £3000 in total. This number terrifies me. Thanks Tim!
But hey, I may as well try, right?
Thanks for reading, I don't know why I wrote so much.
Actually, I do know why I wrote so much, it's because I'm putting off going to the pool to train. There's a good start!
So yeah, sponsor me?

[UPDATE: Ian McKellen will reprise his role as Gandalf in The Hobbit]
Bringing back Andy Serkis to once again play the dual-minded, shriveled creature known as Gollum in Peter Jackson's new venture to Middle-Earth, The Hobbit, has been a no-brainer since the project was initially announced some 50 years ago (kidding, of course, but all the delays have certainly made it feel like half a century has passed).
Serkis has reportedly closed a deal to provide the facial expressions and physical movement for the motion-capture creation that is Gollum in both Hobbit movies, which will be financed and theatrically distributed worldwide by Warner Bros.
While Serkis' reps have yet to officially confirm his involvement with The Hobbit, Deadline says it's a done deal - and given the universal praise surrounding Serkis' performance as the "precious" obsessed Gollum, there is little reason to doubt that claim. Ian McKellen is still working on a deal to return as Gandalf the Grey, but that too seems like a matter of time as the actor's turn as the wise but aged wizard was beloved by moviegoers of all creeds - and there's never been any bad history reported between the X-Men star and Jackson's camp.
UPDATE: Heat Vision is reporting that Ian McKellen has officially signed on to reprise his role as Gandalf in both Hobbit films, which will begin shooting in New Zealand on February 14th, 2011.
J.R.R. Tolkein's The Hobbit focuses around the experiences of a young Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) as he, a band of 13 dwarves, and Gandalf set out on a quest to reclaim the Lonely Mountain from the treasure-guarding dragon Smaug. According to Lord of the Rings canon, Bilbo recorded his grand adventure many years later in the book "The Hobbit or There and Back Again," which - in Jackson's films - will be read by Frodo (Elijah Wood) in the present (presumably, before his departure to the Grey Havens in Return of the King).
The flashback structure of Jackson's Hobbit films also accounts for why Ian Holms is currently in talks to reprise his turn as the older version of Bilbo. Tolkien's additional text about the history of Middle-Earth will also partially be covered in both Hobbit movies, which explains why the less dense novel is being recounted in two, rather than one film like each chapter in the Lord of the Rings series. This also accounts for why cast members such as Christopher Lee, Cate Blanchett, and Orlando Bloom are likely to return as the wizard Saruman, the Lady Galadriel, and the elf Legolas, respectively, in both movies - despite their characters not being in the original Hobbit novel.
The Hobbit: Part 1 is scheduled to reach regular, 3D, and IMAX 3D theaters on December 19th, 2012. Part 2 will arrive a year later in December of 2013.

Congratulations on your excellent report on the long-standing problem of the blocked footpath at the Eagle at Barrow.
I understand the county council's contractor should have completed their task of removing the barriers and reopening the path by Friday, March 13th, and I look forward to being able to walk this route very soon.
We all owe an enormous debt to Norman Thorpe, not only for this achievement at the grand age of 90, but also for the many other battles he has fought over the years on behalf of the Ramblers to reopen or reroute blocked public footpaths.
We are particularly grateful to him for the advice and support he has given us in West Bradford, leading to the reopening of three closed footpaths in this area.

This week the Internet of Things Cybersecurity Improvement Act of 2017 was introduced by a bipartisan group of U.S. senators. The rules sets minimum conditions and requirements for the security of Internet-connected devices purchased by the U.S. government. It also provides legal protections to security researchers.
(1) Devices which are connected to the internet should be patchable
(2) Industry standard protocols should be implemented
(3) Hard-coded passwords that can't be changed should be leveraged
(4) Security vulnerabilities should not be present
It also asked the Office of Management and Budget to create alternative security conditions for devices with limited data processing and software functionality.
As per the bill, the definition of an Internet-connected device "is capable of connecting to and is in regular connection with the Internet," and "has computer processing capabilities that can collect, send, or receive data."
"While I'm tremendously excited about the innovation and productivity that Internet of Things devices will unleash, I have long been concerned that too many Internet-connected devices are being sold without appropriate safeguards and protections in place," Sen. Mark Warner said in a statement.
"This legislation would establish thorough, yet flexible, guidelines for Federal Government procurements of connected devices," Warner added. "My hope is that this legislation will remedy the obvious market failure that has occurred and encourage device manufacturers to compete on the security of their products."
Arxan Technologies VP EMEA Mark Noctor hopes that other government will also follow "While there has been useful work in the area from bodies such as ENISA in Europe, it appears that an act of law is the best way to get vendors to ensure security," he said.
"While the focus on basic measures such as password management is a good starting point, we'd also like to see future legislation build on this to require more advanced security measures, such as using code hardening to protect a connected device's software from being broken into and reverse engineered for malicious purposes," Doctor said.
Security research is also provided legal protections.
"I've long been making the case for reforms to the outdated and overly broad Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act," Sen. Ron Wyden said in a statement.
"This bill is a bipartisan, common-sense step in the right direction."
"This bill is designed to let researchers look for critical vulnerabilities in devices purchased by the government without fear of prosecution or being dragged to court by an irritated company," Wyden added. "Enacting this bill would also help stop botnets that take advantage of Internet-connected devices that are currently ludicrously easy prey for criminals."

You can't hide the tall! But talls are people, too. I write about my life and work and I worry about my posture.

To put it simply: Yoga. It really works toward better posture and overall muscle strength.
Better Posture 101 is a pretty in-depth piece about posture and yoga, and the links give you photos to the different poses!

Posture is very important to me and I have some mirrors at home to remind me. I have been told that yoga helps, but I really hate doing it. You might try asking your physician or talking to a physical therapist for exercises. I've seen a lot online, but don't know how to rate them.
Let me give a big thumbs up to the AWP boards. My friend Colleen has the first prototype and it made food preparation painless for her. You don't give up counter space because you can store things underneath it. Most counters, even raised ones, aren't high even for anyone over six feet and this lets you fine tune what you need. it is money very well spent. I use one for doing other things just so I am standing up with good posture. They are really beautiful. Colleen's is very wide and she uses it as a countertop so she isn't constantly bending over for things. But you can get them in different sizes. I think it is good not to think about them as expensive cutting boards, but rather as very inexpensive raised countertops. Here is her webpage with some videos http://www.6footsix.com/colleenify/.. if you order tell them her name for special treatment.

I started going to yoga classes at the Y a few weeks ago and it's been great! It'll probably take me awhile to get good at it, but it's been really nice and relaxing at the end of the day. I just deleted like 25 comments from spammers! Gross.

Like they've said, yoga really helps (I really enjoy it!), as will anything that works on keeping your core (abs) strong.

Milly Witkop
|Milly Witkop
Milly Witkop (front row, first from left to right) with Rudolph Rocker (behind her) and other London anarchists in 1912
March 3, 1877
Zlatopol, Russian Empire (now Ukraine)
|November 23, 1955
(aged 78)
Crompond, New York, United States
|Known for
|Anarcho-syndicalist writings and activism
|Rudolf Rocker
Milly Witkop(-Rocker) (March 3, 1877 – November 23, 1955) was a Ukrainian-born Jewish anarcho-syndicalist and feminist writer and activist. She was the common-law wife of the better-known Rudolf Rocker. The couple's son, Fermin Rocker, was an artist.
Early life and period in London
Witkop was born Vitkopski in the Ukrainian shtetl of Zlatopol to a Jewish Ukrainian-Russian family as the oldest of four sisters. The youngest of the four, Rose, also became a well-known anarchist. In 1894, Witkop left the Ukraine for London. In the decades following the 1881 assassination of Czar Alexander II, many Jews left Russia as a result of anti-Jewish pogroms throughout the Empire. Most went to the United Kingdom or the United States.[1]
In London, she worked in a tailoring sweatshop and saved enough money to finance her parents' and sisters' passage to England. The hard conditions she worked under led her to question her faith. Her involvement in a bakers' strike led her to become involved with the group around the Jewish anarchist newspaper Arbayter Fraynd. She became influenced by the works of the anarchist theorist Peter Kropotkin. In 1895, she first met Rudolf Rocker in the course of her political work. In May 1898, Rocker invited her to accompany him to New York, where he hoped to find employment. The two were, however, not admitted to the country, because they refused to get married legally and were returned to the United Kingdom with the same ship on which they had reached the United States. The matter received some newspaper coverage in the United States at the time, attacking the couple's love without marriage.[2]
From October 1898, Rocker and Witkop co-edited the Arbeyter Fraynd. In March 1900, the two also started publishing the newspaper Germinal, which was more focused on cultural topics. In 1907, the couple's son, Fermin, was born. Rocker and Witkop were opposed to World War I after it broke out in 1914, unlike many other anarchists such as Kropotkin, who supported the Allied cause. To ease the poverty and deprivation caused by the joblessness that accompanied the war, Witkop and her husband opened a soup kitchen. In December 1914, however, Rocker like many Germans and Austrians in the UK, was interned as an enemy alien. Witkop continued her anti-war activities until she was also arrested in 1916. She remained imprisoned until the autumn of 1918. She then left the United Kingdom to join her husband and son in the Netherlands.[1]
At first, the couple welcomed the February and October Revolutions in Russia, but after the Bolshevik coup they started criticizing the etatism and totalitarianism of what would become the Soviet Union. In November 1918, they moved to Berlin; Rocker had been invited by Free Association of German Trade Unions (FVdG) chairman Fritz Kater to join him in building up what would become the Free Workers' Union of Germany (FAUD), an anarcho-syndicalist trade union.[3] Both Rocker and Witkop became members of the FAUD.[1]
After its founding in early 1919, a discussion about the role of girls and women in the union started. The male-dominated organization had at first ignored gender issues, but soon women started founding their own unions, which were organized parallel to the regular unions, but still formed part of the FAUD. Witkop was one of the leading founders of the Women's Union in Berlin in 1920. On October 15, 1921, the women's unions held a national congress in Düsseldorf and the Syndicalist Women's Union (SFB) was founded on a national level. Shortly thereafter, Witkop drafted Was will der Syndikalistische Frauenbund? (What Does the Syndicalist Women's Union Want?) as a platform for the SFB. From 1921, the Frauenbund was published as a supplement to the FAUD organ Der Syndikalist, Witkop was one of its primary writers.[1]
Witkop reasoned that proletarian women were exploited not only by capitalism like male workers, but also by their male counterparts. She contended therefore that women must actively fight for their rights, much like workers must fight capitalism for theirs. She also insisted on the necessity of women taking part in class struggle. Housewives could use boycotts to support this struggle. From this, she concluded the necessity of an autonomous women's organization in the FAUD. Witkop also held that domestic work should be deemed equally valuable to wage labor.[4]
United States
She was not only active in the syndicalist and feminist movement, but also worked to fight racism and anti-Semitism. She was often frustrated by what she considered an unwillingness to fight anti-Semitism in the labor movement. The rise of the Nazi Party in Germany in the late 1920s greatly troubled Witkop. After the Reichstag fire in February 1933, Witkop and Rocker fled Germany for the United States via Switzerland, France, and the UK. In the US, the couple continued to give lectures and write about anarchist topics. During the Spanish Civil War from 1936 to 1939, they started an awareness campaign to educate Americans about the events in Spain. In Fall 1937, the two moved to the Mohegan Commune near Lake Mohegan in Crompond. After World War II broke out, Witkop, like her husband and other anarchists such as Max Nettlau and Diego Abad de Santillán, supported the Allies because she felt Nazism could not be defeated with pacifist means.[1]
After World War II, Witkop had some sympathy for the Zionist movement, but was skeptical as to whether a nation state could solve the "Jewish question". She favored the idea of bi-nationality developed by Martin Buber and Ahad Ha'am. The Mohegan commune, especially Witkop, was active in sending material support to German anarchists. They sent several hundred packages to Germany.[1]
Witkop died on November 23, 1955. She had been suffering from difficulties of breathing for months.[1]

I'm so honored to be part of Sofilantjes' Anniversary Tour! I'm fairly new to Sofilantjes Patterns, but I've made the Gemini Skirts and Otium Sweater and love the attention to detail and how neatly the patterns come together.
Today we have the very first pattern Anne released - the Summer Surprise! (Two of them, actually!) When I make something for one girl, I usually end up making one for the other, but I try to never make them exactly the same.
|"A surprise? Where?"
Natalie's top is an upcycled t-shirt that formerly hung in my closet. After a few years of wear, it still had some life in it, but not for me. I gave it a facelift with some bright orange and white polka dots - I like how they add a punch to the rust of the main fabric.
Fabrics used: The Cottage Garden (knit) Pink Main - Riley Blake
Rust knit t-shirt - upcycled from personal closet
I love the easiness of this pattern - it's perfect for summer playtime, with a little whimsy and no fuss. The bow is ridiculously easy, yet looks like you spent a ton of time on detail!
Through May 30th, you can get your copy of the Summer Surprise (individual) for 25% off, using code anniversary on the website. The pattern is a re-release; Anne has updated the Summer Surprise to be a layered pattern, great for saving ink! If you already have the pattern, you can download the update from your account. If you purchased on Etsy, won, or tested the pattern, and would like the layers update, email firstname.lastname@example.com with "summer surprise" in the subject line. Include your receipt, or a copy of the email the pattern was sent to you in.
**Note: The pattern itself has NOT changed, just the format!**
|"There's a bow back there!" "Ohhh. I guess you're right, Mom!"
Also, make sure you enter the amazing giveaway-a-day! So many sponsors have come together for this anniversary celebration, and I'm so glad I got to be a part of it! Today's winners will receive one (1) pattern of their choice from EACH of the following:
Gracious Threads
Striped Swallow Designs
FABulous Home Sewn
MCM Designs
A Sparkly Baby
a Rafflecopter giveaway

Multiple sources reported last Wednesday that City were preparing a bid of around £19m for Borussia Dortmund sensation Julian Weigl.
The 20-year-old has been one of the Bundesliga's breakout young players this season after joining Dortmund from 2. Bundesliga side 1860 Munich last summer.
Stylistically, he is perfect for a Pep Guardiola side and so the City links make sense if – as most of the world expects – Guardiola takes over next summer and looks to build a squad capable of playing his way.
And yet Weigl himself doesn't appear too flattered by the links. Speaking to Bild, the midfielder said:
"I'm really not going to leave Borussia. This is not an issue for me."
"I can only emphasis that until 2019 I am under contract at BVB and still have some time [left]."
Weigl's comments all but confirm that he will be going nowhere this month, but do not rule out a summer move. Sporting director Michael Zorc said Weigl will play for a "long time" at Dortmund, but he is unlikely to say anything different at this point.
A January move to City for a player developing so quickly may not be a wise move anyway, but don't be surprised if this link emerges again next summer. Money talks and if Guardiola does take the reigns, players will be queueing up to join his new team.
Want to learn more about Weigl? Check out our Q&A with Dortmund fan Luca Gierl.

Selena Gomez revealed in a new interview that she's "so beyond done" talking about her relationship with Justin Bieber. And she most especially does not want to discuss the Instagram video of him serenading her inside a Beverly Hills hotel before the American Music Awards.
Justin Bieber sang "My Girl" to Gomez in front of a crowd at the bar inside the Montage Hotel in November. The moment was captured on video, fueling rumors that the exes had rekindled their romance.
But as Gossip Cop also noted, on Sunday night, Bieber posted an Instagram photo of himself making out with Hailey Baldwin in St. Barts, seemingly confirming that those two are hooking up.
In a discussion with Rolling Stone, which was obviously conducted before the Bieber and Baldwin kissing photo emerged, Gomez was asked to explain the video of Bieber singing to her. "What is it like to have the world see that?" the interviewer asked, to which the singer answered, "Well, I am sorry, first of all. And honestly, what I would love to be printed is that I am so beyond done with talking about that, and him."
The reporter, however, did press the issue a bit further, asking if the leak of the video made the situation at the AMAs "harder." Gomez explained, "Not at all. I don't alter my life because of what people are going to talk about." She added, "If I go and have a great time, I live my life and nothing is going to dictate how I feel unless I let it."

Jose Antonio Jarimba observation of our imperfect physic 23 years ago, led him to The Human Mold, prevention from origin. Most people suffer physical pain, like back pain, head, shoulder, neck and emotional, and they, in most cases do not know the causes of it. Thirteen years ago, Mr. Jarimba made is second observation, and that is when he dedicated his life to finding out why we are physically misaligned.
Jarimba observed the following in us: By looking close to our physical threats he observed that most people had the following: From the head down to our toes he found that starting with our hair, he noticed that if one has short hair he or she will likely have spike hair on the affected said of the head, if he or she has long hair the hair will likely tangle when combing, going down the head he also noticed that the ear on that same side will likely be pinned towards the back of the head, the eye on the same side might have limited vision, the lines that come from the side of our mouth (symmetry lines) on the affected side the line will likely be stretched towards the back of the head, the shoulder might also be lower, then down to our knee, the knee also may be a little misaligned, and going down to the foot on the same side, the foot may be pronated or supinated, and the toes on the affected side may be curved from the outside inwards to a certain degree.
On the same side one can find that most of us have a long arm, and short leg. Looking from the top of the head down to our foot, it looks like we have a curve, and this causes our physic to be misaligned.
So Mr. Jarimba went on to research the reason that we are like that, and found out that the physical misalignment likely takes place in the womb while the mother to be rests predominantly on the same side during the pregnancy term. To make sure that his theory was correct, he went on to interview hundreds of mothers to be. And found out that the degree of physical misalignment depends on how many hours a mother sleeps during the pregnancy term on the same side. And not satisfied by finding good results, he goes on to ask some women that had just gotten pregnant to alternate resting time every night and day until the baby is born, so that he could confirm his theory. One year later five babies were born, and we compared with other children that these mothers had had before, and the result was amazing, they were almost 100% symmetric compared with their brothers and sisters born before them.
After this experiment and amazing results, Mr. Jarimba found out that for future mothers to have a more symmetric and Healthy baby, a mother to be must alternate resting time while pregnant. After Mr. Jarimba discovered the possible origin of our physical (visible) and structural (invisible) misalignment, he went on to the charts and started looking for a solution how to align a Human structure that was deformed from fetal origin. He found out that the major problem lies on the hips. If both hips are not properly aligned from fetal origin, the rest of the physical structure will not function normal and this will result in physical pain, (chronic) and discomfort.
Mr. Jarimba successfully found a solution to the above problems and you can read more about it in his Book. THE HUMAN MOLD, prevention from origin.

This is absolutely for real—I checked it on Target.com myself.
This Mossimo Womens Kimono Maxi Dress available online online at Target.com is available in the following arbitrary sizes and colors:
- Regular sizes (X-Small to XX Large) comes in Dark Heather Gray.
- Plus sizes (1 to 4) comes in Manatee Gray.
All of the other colors are named the same no matter the size, yet when it comes to getting your arbitrarily numbered plus-size maxi dress, you can get it in Manatee Gray.
I just wish I could get a purple plus-size maxi dress in Grimace Purple.
What the. Plus sized women get "Manatee Grey" while standard sizes are "Dark Heather Grey." @target #notbuyingit twitter.com/suZen/status/3…
— Susan Clemens (@suZen) April 3, 2013
At least Target has admitted their wrongdoing and has replied to @suZen saying they're fixing it ASAP. Yet, at this time, 10:00pm EST, nearly 24 hours after it came to their attention, the Manatee Gray color is still available for purchase.
