Dear Boston,I don't know if anyone has told you (probably many), your roads and drivers are insane. First of all, your roads were built for horses, not cars, or bikes, or TRUCKS for that matter. I was born in you (that came out wrong) and I still have trouble comprehending the nature of your pathways and intersections and the nature of the people that drive on them.
SecondlyYou get really freikin cold! It's hard to be around someone who gives you a chilly attitude for six months out of the year. That's all I have to say about that.
ThirdYou have allowed way too many universities to be built upon your not so expansive territory. I mean, this can be a good thing, because you are overflowing with knowledge, research, and resources. However, many of those young students that are living in an American four year fantasy have turned housing across the city and the traffic on September 1st into a nightmare. They have flooded the city, coffee shops, and bars with their immaturity. I don't mind a few universities, but 35?!? Come on, couldn't you have spared the rest of the population (the mature working professionals and families) a little bit from the impact of self-absorbed, unaware, incomprehensible college youth (that I never once was)?
FourthHow did you get your citizenry to be so passionate about sports? I mean, it's as if there is nothing else to do in this place other than to watch sports, talk about sports, drink in sports bars, etc. I'm not talking about sports that I like, I'm talking about the most boring sport in the world – baseball. (Sorry baseball fans). Come on – the fact that you got millions of people to be so into a sport that involves so much waiting, sitting around, more waiting, chewing tobacco, etc. is a true miracle. I think the chewing tobacco is the real sport here!
Despite thisBoston, you are beautiful. You are walk-able and small. You have a bloody and disturbing history. You have both cranky people and very friendly people. I think sometimes visitors misjudge or misunderstand you. You are fun! There are always things going on and even though events may not be as big as Chicago, San Francsico, or New York, you do pretty good. One thing we need to talk about is your "progress" or what people think is "progress". You are becoming increasingly gentrified and expensive. People that used to be able to afford to live close to downtown, no longer can. Projects and Section 8 housing is being relocated from what used to be undesirable locations, but are now becoming the hottest new area in the city to buy and rent real estate.
Take Southie for example.Southie used to be a working class neighborhood and now it is a haven for yuppies and rich wealthy families. There are people that still live there from many years ago, but rents are increasing, prices are increasing. There are more luxury apartment buildings built on what used to be old houses/apartments, open spaces, or older restaurants. I even lived there for a few years before it became too expensive for me and my landlord wanted to raise my rent by $700! First of all, that should be illegal. He was a greedy bastard. I had to move because I couldn't afford anywhere else in the neighborhood.
Rents skyrocketedEven just in the last five years! Another observation is you see more young professionals with a lot of money, nicer cars, nicer clothes (I don't know why you would have a nice car and street parking in Southie, just don't). Instead of affordable clothing shops and restaurants, there have only been luxury boutiques, pricey restaurants, and even STARBUCKS. I just slightly vomited. When they approved the starbucks, I couldn't believe it. It was sickening and that's when I knew what the neighborhood would become and that there wasn't enough of a fight from local residents (because there aren't enough left who care!). An expensive, yuppie, wealthy, hipster heaven. So progress in you, Boston seems to only be primarily for the wealthy, students (Harvard/MIT), or yuppies/hipsters. Which is NOT progress. Progress is when you involve everyone, not leave behind or push out the folks that cannot afford the ridiculously expensive rents and other costs of living OR those that you would rather sweep under the rug and pretend they don't exist. Every city has its issues. But don't think for one second that you, Boston, are a progressive city. From an insider who is not part of the 1%, it is NOT. Get your shit together, Sincerely, Molly
…Anyways, that is a random shpeal about where I come from, and where I live (for now….). Just a river of thoughts as I think about this place. I have a large gallery of photographs since this is where I have spend the most time. Check it out here if you want to see more of Boston on a visual level. 🙂 Click here to see gallery!

I know everyone isn't a CISSP but we're all stuck with dealing with security these days so it really applies!!!
I got an email this morning (Monday): Reminder: SolarWinds User Group in Phoenix is tomorrow!
It confused me because SWUG is Wed. and Thurs. not tomorrow!
Same here.
There was an error in the queuing date for this particular email and subsequently it went out a day early. Event doors will open on Wednesday, February 5th at 7:30am.
Sincere apologies for the mixup.

IATA report on aviation taxes and charges criticised
A report on aviation taxes and charges has been published by the industry lobby group, IATA. Its aim seems to be to head off threats to impose taxes on aviation. The report is highly misleading. The report by IATA (International Air Transport Association) is called, IATA Economics Briefing No 2 – Aviation Taxes And Charges', was published in Nov 05.The document is, as one would expect, a lobbying document. Its aim seems to be to head off threats to impose taxes on aviation."The aviation industry creates substantial economic value. Governments already reap the benefits airlines provide to economies. We are a heavily taxed industry. We must ensure that unjustified new tax proposals do not add to this burden."The upshot of the study is "This report shows that the aviation sector currently pays a significant amount in terms of both taxes and user charges. Indeed, airlines already pay in full – and more – for their associated infrastructure costs. By contrast, rail and urban transit networks are heavily subsidised. Road users do pay a higher total amount of tax, but typically make a lower net contribution than the aviation sector on a per journey basis."There are some fundamental flaws in the report:
- The comparison confuses the issue by adding taxes to charges for the cost of infrastructure.
- The report argues that because aviation "creates substantial economic value", users should pay low taxes and charges. There is no economic justification for this argument.
- The report make great play of the fact that rail travel is highly subsidised. This is already well known and there are well-understood social, economic and environmental reasons for this. Comparison of aviation and rail contributes nothing to the debate.
- The report shows that road transport is taxed much more heavily than air transport. However, IATA spins this to show that taxes and charges are much higher for air than road on a per-trip basis. This is an absurd comparison, since air trips are typically many hundreds of miles while road trips are typically just a few miles.
- There is no attempt to calculate external costs. The report tries to argue that costs should not be charged because the industry is trying hard to reduce environmental impacts and because there are economic benefits from air travel.

Stopping the Tenure Review Clock
The "tenure review clock" may be stopped, at the faculty member's discretion, in the following circumstances:
- For one year upon the birth or adoption of a child
- For up to two years for approved leaves of absence without pay lasting two or more terms
- In other extraordinary circumstances as approved by the Provost or designee.
Faculty must decide whether to opt to stop the tenure review clock at the start of the leave or absence, or the tenure review clock will not be stopped during the leave or absence. Faculty, however, can later opt to restore the period when the clock was stopped and may apply for tenure review at the time the he or she would have become eligible without the stopping of the clock.
Applications to stop the tenure clock must be made to the Provost.

Indiana State handed a 7-3 loss to Indiana on Wednesday, snapping the Hoosiers' five-game winning streak.
Home runs by IU's Craid Dedelow and Luke Miller weren't enough to power the Hoosiers (14-9-1) to their 15th win.
Dedelow's homer tied the score at 1-1 in the first inning. Miller's blast in the ninth cut the deficit to 7-3.
The Sycamores went up 5-1 in the top of the second and they added two more runs in the fourth for a 7-1 edge.
Indiana continues its home-stand with Big Ten play when it hosts a three-game set against Nebraska at 7:05 p.m. ET Friday from Bart Kaufman Field. The game will be televised nationally on the Big Ten Network.

There is some debate as to the best definition of "gamification," and in education, there are some who would prefer not to use the term at all. In its broadest sense, gamification can refer to the application of any elements of games to an activity that would not otherwise be considered a game.
In education, gamification is an umbrella term for applying game mechanics to learning activities. The hope is that these two pursuits will combine to create an experience that takes advantage of the engagement of gaming to improve education. Unfortunately, this can sometimes result in disparate elements being spliced together without a deeper plan for how they are related. This usually produces an experience which is neither engaging nor educational.
For me, the best examples of gamification are those that engage users in such a way that they enjoy tasks that we would otherwise consider boring or unpleasant. In my current project, chemistry class meets the boring/unpleasant threshold for many, if not most of my students. However, if I could turn the class into a game, I hope to turn their learning experience into something fun.
The format that I have chosen to work with is a quest-based role-playing game (RPG). Each player will choose from a set of "classes," which will be related to different riles within the story of the mission (i.e. engineering, environmental, medical, research, command). These classes serve multiple purposes within the game.
First, choosing a class gives students the ability to select a role that seems interesting to them based on their prior knowledge or future goals in science.
Second, the classes allow for the creation of flexible teams for group activities. Some quests will require all of the members of the engineering team to work together. Other quests will involve mixed teams, with each class being represented. Finally, there will be quests in which members of different classes will work toward solving one piece of a larger puzzle. In these quests, the goal will only be achieved once players seek out and collaborate with members of the other classes.
Finally, the classes act as a mechanism for differentiation. There will be some quests that are only available to members of a particular class within the game. These missions will focus on different aspects of chemistry based on the interests of the players in each class. There will also be optional missions that can only be unlocked by the combination of completing prerequisite quests and being a member of a particular class.
Beyond the quest format and classes, the RPG will incorporate two major game mechanics: experience points/leveling and achievements.
Experience points (XP) are a fundamental component of RPGs. Players earn XP by completing specific tasks, and when they earn a sufficient number of XP, they level up. In the chemistry quest, levels will be represented by a combination of scientific and military ranks. Tentatively, there will be a total of 10 ranks that can be attained. In order to earn a passing grade for the first term, players will need to level up at least once. Leveling up a second time earns an "A" for the term, and so on. Each quarter requires a player to level up twice. A player who does not earn the necessary XP in a particular term will need to catch up in the subsequent term in order to earn an "A" for that quarter. The two additional ranks will be earned by completing the midyear and final exam "boss battles."
One of the advantages of the XP model is that it is different from the "traditional" grading system in two key areas. First, it is based exclusively on positive reinforcement. Players never lose XP. They can only gained points. Rather than being subjected to the typical stress that comes from seeing points deducted for each error made, players will have the reward of seeing their XP increase each time they finish a task. Second, the XP/quest model allows students to experience challenges without fear of failure. A quest is only over (and XP awarded) when it has been completed correctly. If a quest is not completed satisfactorily, the player will receive feedback and make another attempt. No points are deducted. The goal is mastery, not perfection. In this way, students can get formative and make iterative changes. This is not only a hallmark of gaming, but it is also a more accurate representation of the scientific research process.
The second major mechanic will be the implementation of achievements. Achievements will take the form of awards and badges. Awards can be earned by accomplishing specific "feats," such as five quests in five days, or completing their first team quest. Awards can also be stacked – the two awards mentioned in the previous sentence could both be earned simultaneously upon the completion of the same quest. Badges represent theme-based accomplishments, such as completing all of the measurement quests in a unit. The criteria for each achievement will be clearly stated from the start of the class, and all of the achievements that are available will be visible in an inline "trophy case." This will allow players to see which achievements they have completed, which ones they are close to earning, and which achievements are still possible. It will also allow players to pick and choose the achievements that they might want to focus on next.
All of these mechanics need to be contained in a system that makes them accessible, easy to track, and wherever possible, to be managed automatically. The system that will be used is the topic of the next entry.

When you are going to rent cheap Linux server hosting to build a website for your business, then you need to know the basic features of web hosting. As a rule, the choice to host Web sites depends on the scripting language that is used in your website. If PHP, MySQL, Perl, then Linux hosting is preferable. But if you have chosen ASP.Net, then Windows hosting fit you the best.
If you need interactive objects, such as chat or in the search database, cheap Linux server hosting may not be the best choice.

Will virtualizing Mac OS X have any use in the Desktop Virtualization space? Apple says no.
Recently it was announced that with the upcoming release of OS X, Lion, Apple will finally allow virtualization of the desktop version of OS X.
Recently it was announced that with the upcoming release of OS X, Lion, Apple will finally allow virtualization of the desktop version of OS X. At first, this seems like great news for the desktop virtualization community, since it adds one more use case to the VDI and client-side virtualization spaces.
Unfortunately, though, there are limitations that pull this newfound awesomeness away from us in desktop virtualization community. Check out the EULA as posted on MacRumors:
(iii) to install, use and run up to two (2) additional copies or instances of the Apple Software within virtual operating system environments on each Mac Computer you own or control that is already running the Apple Software.
This paragraph is laced with disappointments. To start, you can only run two additional copies, which is fine for client-side virtualization, but not for VDI. Imagine virtualizing Mac OS on your servers by the dozen, then deploying OS X to the users that need it. It's not a revolutionary thing, but it is an additional use case for VDI. I guess we'll have to hold our collective breath for "Snow Lion" or something.
Next, it limits those two additional copies to "Mac Computers," which pretty much seals the VDI door shut. Still, though, the client-side virtualization door is cracked. I can still see situations where this can be useful. Maybe we'll finally see XenClient for the Mac, or some other product that…
"…is already running Apple Software." Ugh.
You know what that means? To me, it says that you have to run OS X Lion as the host. Then, and only then, can you use Fusion or Parallels to virtualize the other two instances. That also rules out running Lion on any client hypervisor (XenClient, MokaFive Bare Metal, Virtual Computer NxTop, etc…) because the guest VM's would not be running on "Apple Software."
So way to go, Apple. It's like you had three tools, and you had to use them all:
Nobody really expects Apple to jump into the corporate space and embrace virtualization the way we want them to (it would just be nice). They seem to be content adding a few things with each release that keep the Mac usable in corporate environments, but not so usable that the Mac becomes "corporatized" and uncool. It is the opposite of "motel art," perhaps to a fault. Still, it doesn't appear to be hurting Apple any as I write this from my MacBook Pro, read it on my iPad, and check my email on my iPhone. Man, I must be so cool!
Does your organization have any use cases that go beyond "blogger wants to run one Windows app without needing Fusion?"

Lighter, Longer, Darker

Use With: Apply with an Application Mitt. Use any of our Gradual Tanning Products to prolong your tan.
Step 1 Use the Bondi Sands Exfoliation Mitt to ensure your skin is clean and free from any moisturisers. Before you tan remember to take a before photo for our social pages.
Step 2 Apply Bondi Sands Aero liberally to a Tanning Mitt before using long, sweeping motion to legs, arms and body. Use remaining residue on tanning mitt for face, elbows and knees.
Step 3 Leave on skin for at least 6 hours. Shower with warm water and gently pat skin dry. For the deepest tan re-apply Bondi Sands Aero 30 minutes after application.
Q. What colour will it develop into?
A. Aero will leave the skin with a deep, bronzed glow, similar to the results of our Self Tanning Foam in Dark.
Q. How do I apply this product
A. For an even streak free application use the Bondi Sands Application Mitt. Using the Mitt will also eliminate the chance of ending up with tanned palms. The aerated formula is ultra light weight, allowing for a smooth, even application, a touch dry in seconds result and a deeper, longer lasting tan. Leave on skin for at least 6 hours for a deep, bronzed glow.
Q. What makes the formula fast-drying?
A. Aerosol foams absorb into the skin deeper and quicker for the most controlled and comfortable self tanning experience.

A. The formula contains both Vitamin E and Jojoba. Both these ingredients are known to assist in moisturising the skin, in turn aiding in tan longevity.
Q. How long will my tan last?
A. Aero gives you an amazingly rich, natural and flawless tan that can last up to 7 days. With good preparation and moisturising this could be considerably longer.
Q. Does it have a colour guide?
A. Until washing the tan off you do have to be mindful that the bronzer in the tan (the colour in the formula that helps you apply the tan evenly), may transfer onto items of clothing. It does however dry fast and any transfer will be minimal. Rest assured all ingredients in our products are water soluble and should easily wash out.
All reasonable efforts have been made to ensure that ingredient listings, product images and other information for products displayed on this website are up to date, accurate and complete. However, we still recommend that you please check the ingredient listings on a product before use.

There is nothing wrong with asking for help, and when you realize this, there is so much that you will be able to achieve.
Sample papers are all over the place at the moment. When you come to think about it, there are lots of these that are available, in different niches and subject areas. For this reason therefore you have a very good chance of learning what to do once you get your hands on some of them.
Your teacher will always be a very good source of information for you as long as you are looking for help in this regard. It is important for you to ensure that you get in touch with them whenever you are struggling with one or two issues with regard to your thesis paper. This way you can get the best help ever.

Other Incretin Mimetics
Bydureon is an incretin mimetic. The three other incretin mimetics currently available are exenatide (Byetta®), iraglutide (Victoza®), and dulaglutide (Trulicity™). Exenatide is a short-acting version of Bydureon.
These medications work by acting like the hormone incretin in the body, increasing insulin production and slowing down digestion. One of the most notable differences among the incretin mimetics is that Bydureon and Trulicity are injected once a week, Victoza is usually injected once a day, and Byetta is typically injected twice a day.
Amylin Analogues
There is one amylin analogue available called pramlintide (Symlin®). This medication works like the hormone amylin in the body, increasing insulin production, slowing digestion, decreasing the production of glucose by the liver, and reducing appetite.
Insulin is available in rapid-, short-, long-, or intermediate-acting forms.
Oral Diabetes MedicinesMany different types of oral medications are available to treat type 2 diabetes, including:
- Sulfonylureas
- Biguanides
- Meglitinides
- Thiazolidinediones
- Alpha glucosidase inhibitors
- Dipeptidyl peptidase inhibitors
- Ergot alkaloids
- Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2 inhibitors)
- Bile acid sequestrants
- Combination medications.
Sulfonylureas are medications that force the pancreas to make more insulin. As a result, they are effective at controlling blood sugar, but are also more likely to cause dangerously low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). These medications include:

Yep pulled a noob. I totally forgot how to enter complex dimensions in the dynamic prompt. In my defense there is a lot in my day to day that actually doesn't require scale or precision on that level.
But still I cant let this one slide with out earning noob points.
I had to google how to enter units followed by their fraction. for example if I needed 7 and 3/4 inches I how would I do that. I tried a couple things and failed... this is truly a post of shame.
For the noobs who land here for the same problem, just add a dash.
7 and 3/4 inches is put in like the following:
and with this I go crawl in a corner in total noob self pitty...

Well you have worked hard the past 2 classes and made up for lost time while we were away. We have learnt some easy, nippy and golden oldies this week, check the dances page for details, and it was lovely to see some faces at class last night we haven't seen for a little while. It was a big surprise when I heard someone banging on the door and found Colin outside (he handed the class over to me nearly a year ago), so it was lovely to see him!
I have a couple of special events coming up in the future. These are private functions, but it's nice to know people want to include line dancing in their various celebrations, whether they have done it before or not. If you're planning a party and want some line dancing there, please give me a call, I am sure we can arrange something.
There are socials on this weekend and next, details on Hank's page via the events page here. Unfortunately we can't make this weekend's at JKs but plan to be there next weekend when Andrew has a disco.

Smallest multiple
No. 83
2520 is the smallest number that can be divided by each of the numbers from 2 to 10 without any remainder.
What is the smallest positive number that is evenly divisible by all of the numbers from 1 to 20?
The remainder operator "%"
allows for testing whether a given integer value
Increment an integer candidate in a loop till the desired condition is being fulfilled.
We propose the following solution:
public static void main(String[] args) { final int highestDivisor = 20; // May be adjusted to other limits. int candidate = highestDivisor; // start with highest divisor. boolean atLeastOneRemainder; do { candidate++; // next candidate value. atLeastOneRemainder = false; for (int i = 2; i <= highestDivisor; i++) { if (0 != candidate % i) { // Is there a non-zero remainder? atLeastOneRemainder = true; // Continue outer while. break; // Leave current for loop. } } } while (atLeastOneRemainder); // Increase candidate further? System.out.println(candidate); }
Executing this code results in a value of 232792560 for the smallest desired value.
No. 84
Smallest multiple, purely algebraic solution
Solving the previous exercise by a program is quite a no-brainer (from a software developer's point of view). Provide a different solution purely based on algebraic considerations. In other words: Your solution should work by using paper and pencil exclusively.
Consider the underlying prime factors of all values from [2, 3, ...20].
We decompose each value within [2, 3, ...20] into prime factors:
As expected we find an identical value for the desired smallest integer value of 2*2*2*2*3*3*5*7*11*13*17*19 = 232792560 which is the least common multiple of [2, 3, ...20].

Adulting is truly overwhelming.
A few years ago, what I have been stressing about are just school stuff (e.g. Did I accomplish all the requirements? I have not reviewed for the exam yet!). Back then I thought that it is the biggest stress I will ever encounter but oh, I was wrong. Adulting came in and it punched me on the face. Suddenly, my tasks escalated from two priorities (school work and house chores) to seemingly endless responsibilities (work assignments, house chores, graduate school requirements, budgeting, girlfriend duties, spirituality, leisure, side-hustle, passion projects and making an impact to others). Adults have so many things to attend to and it gets very overwhelming.
However as responsible adults, we need to find out ways on how to manage everything while maintaining our sanity and fight feelings of overwhelm. In this blog post, we will discuss all about overwhelm and some of the ways to handle it.
What is Overwhelm?
Overwhelm is the feeling of being affected by a lot of things very strongly to the extent of not knowing how to deal with all of it.
It could be a manifestation of anxiety or stress. There are a lot of factors that cause overwhelm. It could be due to an endless list of to-do or an emotional event such as getting married, starting a new job, pregnancy or death.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, you may be experiencing the following:
- Procrastination
- Fatigue
- Difficulty concentrating
- Difficulty sleeping
- Difficulty remembering things
- Withdrawal from people and previously enjoyable tasks
- Desire to quit (sometimes preoccupation with death)
Our feelings of overwhelm brings in our tendency to fight or to flight. Fighting the stressors means rolling up your sleeve and facing your concerns. Flight means escaping away from it. We use one of these tendencies when we encounter problems.
There are times we need to fight and there are times we need to walk away from the problem. It actually depends on your concern. This is why it is also important to assess the situation or the task first so that you will know what action to take.
How to overcome overwhelm caused by adulting?
1. Get organized
Get it out of your head and write it all down in a piece of paper. This is my ultimate solution to feelings of overwhelm.
Most of the times, we get anxious because there are a lot of things running in our minds. We cannot identify which needs to be done first and what actions should we take in each thought.
Do a brain dump.
List all your thoughts in a notebook or in an app like Evernote, Notes or Excel. Then, identify which should be prioritized and which can be done later. I like Eisenhower's matrix because it helps me with my prioritization. I was not aware of this matrix before but I realized that I have been doing this all along.Afterwards, sit down and generate solutions for each concern. Personally, what I like to do is to write down an outline of actions steps I need to do in each item. I get really specific of what tasks I need to do. Here is an example:
THINGS TO DO (June 6, 2019)
- Clean the house
- Sweep the floor
- Mop the floor
- Change beddings
- Do the laundry
- Write a blog post
- Outline the important points to discuss
- Research about overwhelm (definition, causes, symptoms)
- List down personal ways to manage overwhelm
- Create the worksheet
- Film a short video discussing overwhelm
This way, I will not feel as if I am facing a huge stone that I cannot overcome. By breaking it down to small and specific steps, it will feel less intimidating.
Moreover, it is also important to keep your space organized.
Clutter may add to your stress. It can also delay you from doing more important tasks. I like to de-clutter my room and organize my desk first before I start working. I like what Gretchen Rubin said in her books:
2. Manage your finances well
Setting a budget or accounting your expenses is a must when you are already an adult.
Learn how to do these two tasks and establish the habit of doing it as early as you can. Not managing my own finances well in my early 20's is my greatest regret. This is the major reason for the overwhelm I am feeling at this point in my life.
The stress of not having enough resources to finance all my needs and wants would have been avoided if I were able to save consistently and invested to things that matter in the long run instead of submitting to short-term desires.
If you are on the same page as I am, do not lose hope. We can still do something. That overwhelm you are feeling may be a message for you to start being more mindful of where you are spending your money. You should be the one to tell your money where to go instead of the other way around.
Another important thing is to save for an emergency fund so that you will be confident that you have a back-up resource when the time comes that you need a huge amount of money (e.g. when you get laid off from your job, when you or a loved one get sick, etc.)
Get an insurance because you will surely need this in the future.
I am not an agent of any insurance companies but I realized how important it is now that I am experiencing some health concerns. I am overwhelmed with huge hospital bills which take almost half of my bi-monthly salary. Whereas if I have availed of an insurance which covers my hospital bills, I would have saved a lot of money or even have access to free check-ups.
As much as possible stay away from debt.
If you need to you can start a side-hustle while working in a 9-5 job so that you can earn more and save more too. This is only advisable for people who are ready to experience the pros and cons of a side-hustle. If you are only pressured to do this because you see it in other people, don't do it. It will only add to your feelings of overwhelm. Start only when you feel ready.
3. Establish helpful routines
Being indecisive about things also contributes to feelings of overwhelm. It is stressful to be thinking of something that you do not know what to do about. It is difficult when you are torn between options.
Gretchen Rubin in her book Better Than Before shared what she found out to be a helpful tool to battle indecision as well as the stress the behavior entails and that is to build habits.
By building habits, you are making the decision an automated one. Instead of stressing over your indecision to work out or not, you are making it automatic if you will build a habit of it. Decide which option you will do and do it consistently until it becomes a lifestyle.
Personally, I like building routines because it lessens the overwhelm I feel with all the things I am thinking about. I can focus my energy in my tasks at work instead of using all my fuel into thinking whether or not I should take a shower. I believe that routines help us feel less overwhelmed.
Take it from Gretchen's words:
4. Practice self-care
I am a huge fan of self-care. If you would be looking in my IG feed or my FB timeline, most of the things I share are about self-care. I am an advocate of balance when it comes to work and leisure. Adulting is life but I believe that self-care is lifer (if there is such word as 'lifer', hahaha).
I shared the things I did to manage the overwhelm I felt this week in my latest IG post. Self-care is about taking a break from your responsibilities and taking the time to care of your greatest resource: yourself.
Practicing mindfulness may be my ultimate tool against overwhelm.
Often, the things I am stressed about are all "what ifs." My mind makes it seem like these thoughts are real and are all emergency. I then become stuck with overwhelm. To bring myself out of the rut, I pull my attention from the future to the present. I like to tell myself that my stressors have not happened yet and that its occurrence is uncertain. I remind myself where I am presently at in life.
Setting boundaries is another way to practice self-care.
We get overwhelmed because we make our tasks overlap. We do not have a set limit and this makes us feel that our responsibilities are endless. Although we cannot really get away from our responsibilities, we can surely take a break away from it so that we return to it feeling more pumped up.
What you can do now?
I created a pretty one-page infographic of all the things I mentioned above. Feel free to download it to serve as a reminder or a guide as you build your Anti-Overwhelm Plan. You can click the button below to download it.

I will be launching my IGTV channel very soon which will focus also on mental health and the language that I will be using is Filipino so that I can relate more with my kababayan audiences.

Annatto - What is it?
Annatto is native to tropical regions in Mexico, Central America, South America and the Caribbean. It was used by ancient Mayans as a body paint, and by Aztecs to deepen the color of their chocolate drink, according to the Handbook of Spices, Seasonings and Flavorings by Susheela Raghavan.
What does it taste like?
I chewed on a whole seed, which had a mild flavor that I could best describe as claylike. Others say it's slightly sweet and peppery, musky, or has a flowery scent. In Mexican Everyday, Chicago chef Rick Bayless calls achiote paste (a mixture of annatto seeds and other spices) "a flavor that tastes as though it's been unchanged since pre-Columbian times."
So, what the heck do I do with it?
First off, let me tell you what not to do with it: don't buy whole annatto seeds unless you have a diamond cutter, or at least a high-powered spice grinder. I was intending to make Bayless's recipe for Grilled Fish in Tangy Yucatecan Achiote with Green Beans and Roasted Tomato Salsa. I somehow didn't read the part where he recommends buying pre-ground achiote from a Latino grocer or website because the seeds are so hard to grind. I had a packet of whole seeds, which the label instructed could be ground with a mortar and pestle. Ha! After a few minutes of pestling the seeds with all my might (which, admittedly, is not formidable), they were frustratingly intact save for a red-orange stain in the bowl. I enlisted my spouse's physical-labor-enhanced forearms, but his result wasn't much better. I don't have a spice grinder, so I tried my mini–food processor; the seeds just ricocheted around like pebbles in a vacuum cleaner. I tried soaking them in hot water for two hours, on a suggestion I found online. All I had to show for it was a stained mini-processor and some moistened but otherwise unperturbed seeds. Finally, I just left the seeds in oil overnight (by this time I had given up and made something else for dinner), then blended the infused oil with the other ingredients in the recipe the next evening. The dish came out well, though I don't know if it would have tasted any different without the tinted oil.
Learn from my tribulations and buy pre-ground achiote. Then make cochinita pibil, a spicy pulled pork from the Yucatán. Or look for the Goya brand spice blend called Sazon con culantro y achiote to make classic Puerto Rican arroz con pollo.
Or try Filipino-style tamales—the Tagalog word for annatto is atsuete—made with rice instead of corn."
Wiki Info
Annatto (/əˈnætoʊ/ or /əˈnɑːtoʊ/) is an orange-red condiment and food coloring derived from the seeds of the achiote tree (Bixa orellana) native to tropical regions from Mexico to Brazil.[1] It is often used to impart a yellow or orange color to foods, but sometimes also for its flavor and aroma. Its scent is described as "slightly peppery with a hint of nutmeg" and flavor as "slightly nutty, sweet and peppery".[2]
The color of annatto comes from various carotenoid pigments, mainly bixin and norbixin, found in the reddish waxy coating of the seeds. The condiment is typically prepared by grinding the seeds to a powder or paste. Similar effects can be obtained by extracting some of the color and flavor principles from the seeds with hot water, oil, or lard, which are then added to the food.[3]
Annatto and its extracts are now widely used in an artisanal or industrial scale as a coloring agent in many processed food products, such as cheeses, dairy spreads, butter and margarine, custards, cakes and other baked goods, potatoes, snack foods, breakfast cereals, smoked fish, sausages, and more. In these uses, annatto is a natural alternative to synthetic food coloring compounds, but it has been linked to rare cases of food-related allergies.[4] Annatto is of particular commercial value in the United States because the Food and Drug Administration considers colorants derived from it to be "exempt of certification".
The annatto tree B. orellana is believed to originate in tropical regions from Mexico to Brazil.[1][5] It was probably not initially used as a food additive, but for other purposes such as ritual and decorative body painting (still an important tradition in many Brazilian native tribes, such as the Wari'), sunscreen, and insect repellent, and for medical purposes.[6][7][8] It was used for Mexican manuscript painting in the 16th century.[9]
Annatto has been traditionally used as both a coloring and flavoring agent in Latin America, the Caribbean, the Philippines, and other countries where it was taken home by Spanish and Portuguese explorers in the 16th century.[1] It has various local names according to region.[1] Its use has spread in historic times to other parts of the world, and it was incorporated in local culinary traditions of many countries outside the Americas.[10]
Culinary uses
Traditional cuisine
Ground annatto seeds, often mixed with other seeds or spices, are used in the form of paste or powder for culinary use, especially in Latin American, Jamaican, Belizean, Chamorro, Vietnamese, and Filipino cuisines. In Mexican and Belizean cuisines, it is used to make the spice recado rojo. In Venezuela, annatto is used in the preparation of hallacas, huevos pericos, and other traditional dishes. Pasteles and sazón in Puerto Rico also contain annatto. Annatto paste is an important ingredient of cochinita pibil, the spicy pork dish popular in Mexico. It is also a key ingredient in the drink tascalate from Chiapas, Mexico. In the Philippines, it is used for the sauce of pancit.
Industrial food coloring
Annatto is used currently to impart a yellow or orange color to many industrialized and semi-industrialized foods. In the European Union, it is identified by the E number E160b.
Annatto has been a traditional colorant for Gloucester cheese since the 16th century. During the summer, the high levels of carotene in the grass would have given the milk an orange tint which was carried through into the cheese. This orange hue came to be regarded as an indicator of the best cheese, spurring producers of inferior cheese to use annatto to replicate it. The custom of adding annatto then spread to other parts of the UK, for cheeses such as Cheshire and Red Leicester, as well as colored Cheddar made in Scotland.[11][12] Many cheddars are produced in both white and red (orange) varieties, with the latter being more popular despite the only difference between the two being the presence of annatto as a coloring.[13] That practice has extended to many modern processed cheese products, such as American cheese and Velveeta.

Having numerous, red, protuberant, small and the bumps that itch over the skin is a very frequent skin problem, and as such it can be associated with a lot of the possible causes and can figure as very general and common indicator of some underlying health problem. However, it can be emphasized that the appearing of these blemishes is most commonly due to the rashes of the skin or to some allergic response.
The most common causes
In the latter mentioned cases, the symptom of the little red formations that cover the skin is as frequent and prominent as the sneezing and it is the result of the auto-immune reaction of the body to some environmental provoker (e.g. pollen or the domestic dust). Nevertheless, there are a lot of the cases when the allergic response is triggered by the sting or the bite from some insect, and, besides the itchy bumps, some more severe, aggravated and life-threatening symptoms appear. But, even when this is not the case, along with the sting, the insects inject some toxins that trigger the irritation and the response of the organism that usually results in the described bumps, besides the other following symptoms.
However, considering the bumps as the indicators of some disease, their most important role is in reaching the diagnosis in the case of the measles. This condition is caused by the virus, and it is rather acute and progressive disease, especially when the bumps themselves are observed. The really itchy protuberant spots quickly extend from the facial skin over the rest of the body. Also, by carefully inspecting the bumps, it could be determined whether there is the case of the chicken pox or not. In the first stages, they resemble the blemishes from the insect stings, but, in the advanced stages, the crusts cover them.
Also, the bumps can be the indicator of the rash caused by a virus (which is the case of the condition called Shingles), or of the permanent condition of the skin, called Dermatitis herpetiformis (in that case, the bumps contain the pus).
When it comes to the treatment, the most efficient is the one that is focused on dealing the problem by treating precisely the provoker and not only the consequence of it, which would be the treatment of the underlying the disease itself and not the one only focused on providing the relief from the itch felt over the skin. Of course, it is important to maintain the god hygiene, so that the bumps couldn't even appear at the first place or thus they could be significantly alleviated at the very beginning of the outbreak.

Tell, Don't Ask is an object oriented programming principle saying we should just tell objects what to do, without asking them unnecessary questions.
Asking is when we're writing conditionals solely based on one object's internals. Either we're checking a property or a method returning a result, if we're doing it to tell the object to do something else, we're breaking the Tell, Don't Ask principle.
Here are two examples:
// bad
if ($order->subtotal() > 10000) {
$order->shipping_price = 0;
// better
// bad: we're asking the user object if it's enrolled to $course
// if not, then we're telling the user to enroll to the $course
if (!$user->isEnrolled($course)) {
// better: the enroll method is responsible to check wether the user should be enrolled or not
When you can ignore TDA?
TDA violations are fixed by moving the decision inside the object. But doing so, the object gains new responsibilities. Pushing too many responsibilities inside one object is also bad as the object will end up "doing too much".
The get out of jail free card for breaking Tell, Don't Ask is when you find new objects to host that new responsibility.
Ben's example of the SubscriptionCharger fits this bill. A user has a subscription, and you can charge that subscription. But instead of doing it in some controller, or moving it inside the user object, stuffing even more responsibility into it (following TDA), you move it to a dedicated class representing the concept of charging.
class SubscriptionCharger
private $subscription;
public function __construct(Subscription $subscription)
$this->subscription = $subscription;
public function __invoke()
if ($this-subscription->isActive()) {
} else {
TDA is just a reminder that in object oriented programming data and the behaviour operating on that data should go together.

BBC Music Festival to Replace Glastonbury for Gap Year
Everybody needs to take a rest and recuperate now and again, especially when they've just spent an entire year organising the biggest festival in the UK. Glastonbury is no exception, as the Eavises need to sleep too, you know! Not only that, but their site needs time to recover from the rigours of so many attendees trampling across the fields, as it is a working farm.
This is why 2018 sees the organisers of the festival taking a break to recharge the batteries. It is also why you'll see that the BBC has stepped in and taken up the mantle, putting on four shows in four cities around the UK, one in each of its four countries.
The BBC Biggest Weekend takes place during the second bank holiday weekend in May (from 25th-28th May 2018). There will be in excess of 175,000 tickets up for grabs and the BBC has promised that they will be bringing some of the world's biggest and best artists to the four locations over the course of the four days.
No lineup announcements have been made as of the time of writing, but organisers are promising top artists from the global stage heading to the locations over which the festival is to be held.
As you might expect, the BBC plans to televise the events in much the same way as they televise Glastonbury, so if there is an artist you would like to see, but they aren't at your location, then you can check them out at on iPlayer. BBC Radio 1, 2, 3, and 6 Music will also be airing various live sets from the event.
We will have more news, including lineup announcements and festival locations, as and when it comes in, so keep your eyes peeled on Nextfest for all the info relating to the BBC Biggest Weekend.

Regardless of whether you are new to commercial real estate or already have a significant level of experience, there are always times when the business becomes stressful and overwhelming. This article gives details about how you can lower the overall stress level associated with investing in commercial properties.
Be sure to negotiate on the fact of what you are, the seller or buyer. Make your voice heard and strive for fair market value pricing.
As you look for opportunities on the commercial real estate market, you should always be patient and rational. Do not rush into making quick real estate decisions. You might regret it if that property is not right for you. Be patient, as it could take as long as a year for just the right investment property to turn up.
When selling a piece of commercial property, it is wise to ensure that you ask a realistic price. Market conditions can vary greatly; therefore, an appraisal may not be the best indicator of true market value.
Keep your rental commercial properties occupied. If there is still open space, it will be incumbent upon you to pay for maintenance. If you have multiple properties open, figure out why, and try to correct the issue that could be causing a loss of tenants.
You should carefully consider the neighborhood in which you purchase commercial real estate. Expensive, luxury-oriented businesses will thrive in more affluent neighborhoods. However, if your services are more frequently utilized by people of lower socioeconomic brackets, be sure to find a neighborhood that suits it.
Advertise your property for sale locally and outside your region. Do not assume that only local investors will be interested. There are many investors who are interested in financing properties which are outside their area as long as they are a great deal.
A letter of intent should be kept simple by focusing on larger issues and leaving smaller issues to negotiate later. This will make negotiations less tense and make gaining agreement on the smaller issues easier to complete.
Before you begin your search for the perfect commercial property, have a clear picture of your needs. Make a list of the property features most important for you, such as square footage, number of offices, conference rooms, and restrooms.
Before being occupied, your new purchase my need some improvements or remodeling. It could be something simple, such as paining walls, rearranging appliances or furniture or hanging things. Many times, changes include reconfiguring the floor plan by moving walls. You should pre-negotiate the cost of these alterations with the landlord, and try to get them to contribute towards at least part of them.
Read the fine print about your real estate agent. Determine if there is a possibility that he will be working as a dual agent. Dual agency means the real estate company is representing both the seller and the buyer in a property transaction. In the case of a rental situation, the agency represents the landlord and the tenant. If there is a dual agency, everyone should be honest about it and find an agreement.
Even the most advanced commercial property hunter can be challenged when looking for a new investment. For that reason articles like this exist to make it a bit easier when thinking about buying commercial property.

PITAS: Kg Kobon, in Pitas District is an idyllic village. The clusters of houses are nestled among gigantic trees and shrubberies that grow lushly around. The canopy of the trees keeps the harsh sun light away and lends the village a tranquil setting usually sought by city dwellers.
Some of the quaint rustic houses are made of split bamboo and wood. Some have zinc roofs while others are made from palm fronds. Around the houses are gardens of flowers and vegetables as well as pens for livestock such as pigs and chicken.
The meandering paths to the houses are under the shades of gigantic fruits trees like langsat (Lansium domesticum) and Tarap (Artocarpus odoratissimus) among others. The paths are just walk ways through the weeds.
Adding to the feeling of timelessness are the warbles of birds and sounds of insects.
Kg Kobon is indeed a tranquil village.
However, the 400 strong villagers, mostly sustenance farmers are far from happy with their situation. They want development and basic infrastructures on par with their more developed counterparts in the State.
This idyllic village has no electricity supply, no clean treated water and the six kilometer road from the asphalted thoroughfare is horrendous.
Juni Andigang, 35, who was born and grew up in that village, said the village is about 30 kilometers from Pitas Township, with the last six kilometers being a dirt road.
"The six kilometers of dirt road was built in 2009 by a company who harvested the acacia trees for their saw mill in Mempakad. The villagers were very happy at that time because they could then go to Pitas Township quite easily," he shared.
"However, it is a dirt road after all and when it rains it's almost impossible to travel on. It can only be travelled on during sunny weather but only by a four wheel drive."
According to him, they maintained the road through 'gotong royong' to make sure that the road is not reclaimed by nature.
Juni said the people are stuck in their impoverished state by circumstances. The people cannot send their farm produce to town to sell as the road is so bad that only four wheel drives can travel on it.
Determination is their only strength, where they carry their produce for three kilometres to the jetty and then transport the produce on a boat, to a vehicle in Pandan and then the goods will reach town.
"We have coconuts, bananas and other fruits but we cannot send them out to sell due to lack of accessibility," he stated, adding that this impacted the elderly, pregnant women and the sick as well.
"We have to carry them physically to the nearest clinic in Dandun which is two kilometers away and if necessary to Pitas Hospital," he said.
The children are not spared the hardship for they have to travel three kilometres to school, travelling on a boat at river on the way. They have to wake up very early to start their day.
Adrianna Jupirin, 11, shared that she is used to the early morning walk and the trek home afterwards. Her village mate, Jeremy, 10, who goes to the same school. SK Pandan Mandamai, echoed her, saying he is used to the travel. However both agreed that travelling in a school bus is much better.
Jeremy's mother Fauziah Indod, 31, a housewife is very sad that her children have to travel so far to school and hopes that something can be done to make their life easier.
"Road and electricity are very important to us. We need the road to enable us to travel to town when we need to attend to important matters there and the electricity for our needs and for our children to study in comfort," she said.
Another villager Modumis Masiau, 53, who owns a boat, in his own way helps his fellow villagers as he collects the produce from them to sell in town.
"I usually go to town twice a month to sell the village produce. But it is hard work. Sometimes when the water is shallow, I have to pull my boat. Its better when its high tide as I can use the boat engine," he shared.
He is very keen to see a road into the village as he can do better with his business if there is transportation.
Pastor Sitimin Majanim agreed that the road should be prioritized by the relevant authorities. He said they had to use church funds amounting to RM9800 to pay for an excavator to maintain the road recently.
Another villager, Kalawis Kundihol, 66, only hopes for a proper house. The elderly man who looks quite frail shares that his house is no longer fit to dwell in but he has no choice as he has no means of making another one.
"I have six children. They all live here but four of them are married now and have their own family. Two of my sons are still under my care. Unfortunately one of them is disabled due to a mishap a few years ago. Now he is being cared of by his mother in her parents' house. They can't live with me as my house is in terrible shape," he shared.
This man was born in the village, of parents who were settlers there. He is a sustenance farmer who plants tapioca and bananas. Those are his source of food. He once planted paddy but they were always destroyed by pests so he gave up.
He stressed that he had applied for a Poverty Eradication Programme House (PPRT) but he has yet to see plank or nail of it, except for a huge water tank donated by some NGO.
Juni reiterated that all they want is a good road and electricity so that their village can start its development.
"There are other important facilities that we don't have such as a clinic and treated water, but for the moment all we want is a good road and electricity as I believe these amenities can contribute to a better life for us," he stressed.
Kg Kobon may be an idyll village but the villagers want it to be an ideal village, with provision for all-round development of the people. –ce/BNN

Just a question, is the end result very sweet or just moist?
Mar 4, 2019
Made this for Easter last year and it was amazing! Will be making again this year!
Apr 1, 2018
I am not a ham fan, but this was AWESOME! I don't know what went wrong with the girl who said this was dry, because this is the most tender, juiciest ham I have ever had. Hands down. The. Best. What I did different was 1) the ham -- I shopped late and my choices were limited so I ended up with a 7 pound, cured and fully cooked semi-boneless; 2) what I thought was pineapple slices in my pantry turned out to be pineapple chunks -- still delicious; 3) I had a 17 ounce jar of marmalade and while I did not use 17 ounces, I may have used a bit more than 12. My sides were homemade scalloped potatoes, Italian green beans, devilled eggs, salad, and fresh garlic bread. Best Easter meal I have ever made! :)

When they say cook in half, does it mean long wise or down the middle.
Apr 1, 2017
What is meant by "top with the ham pieces?" What ham pieces.
Mar 23, 2016
Wonderful, old-fashioned recipe! BobbiMinko: it means you cut the ham in half and cook BOTH pieces, presumably to help it cook a bit faster in the crockpot. Hope you enjoy it!
Mar 22, 2016
Excellent taste.
Mar 22, 2016
It says ham (halved) are you only supposed to cook half of the ham?
Dec 24, 2015
The ham was excellent. Didn't care for the fruit after it was baked on the ham.
Nov 26, 2015
I first made this recipe about 8 years ago. It has consistently been a hit with everyone I have served it to. Best yet the leftover ham is terrific for soup, casseroles, or sandwiches! This happens every holiday at our house by family request.
