STOMP it anytime, anywhere.

Submitted by Stomper Anonymous
The extension wing of Plaza Singapura faced a power outage on Sunday (Sep 23) due to an unforeseen delay in restoring back power after a scheduled power shutdown at 10pm the night before.
A Stomper, who is a Business Development Manager of two restaurants in Plaza Singapura, told Stomp that she was informed by her staff of the power outage at the extension wing of the mall when they arrived to work at 10am that Sunday.
She said that business could not run as per usual because the restaurant's exhaust could not work.
"We had to wait for the exhaust to start working and the lights to come back on. We only could start cooking properly in the late afternoon."
According to The Straits Times, this was due to an unforeseen delay in getting the power back up from the night before, where there was a scheduled power shutdown at 10pm on Saturday.
The power was supposed to come back by 8am the next day, however, it only returned gradually from about 2.15pm.
The lights were fully back on by 2.40pm, while the air-conditioning was switched on progressively from 6.40pm and was fully restored at 8.30pm.
Eighty tenants were affected by the blackout, most were unable to continue with business until later in the day.
The Stomper added that: "Tenants were on standby for the entire day, with no exact projections on when everything can resume its normal operations."
Another concern raised by the Stomper was that: "Tenants can expect a massive loss in sales as it is Sunday the busiest day of the week. Tenants also have to pay staff salaries, food spoilage from the non functioning freezers and chillers."
She also shares with us that she does not know if she will receive compensation for the business loss incurred.
(Story continues below video.)
Ms June Ang, General Manager of Plaza Singapura said: "Throughout Sunday, we provided regular updates to our tenants and offered support to those who continued operations. We are continuing to provide assistance to our tenants where required, and remain available for discussions."

Has Recycling Gone Way too Far?
I have been around for quite awhile – since before there was a TV in every home- I grew up on the old Superman black and white series- "faster than a speeding train, leaps tall buildings with a single bound", The Lone Ranger, "Who was that masked man?", Batman- "dadadada- Batman".
This is just a few. The point is every one of these have been made into movies and remade into movies adnauseum – It is as if the writers in the Rhinestone City known as Hollywood has run out of ideas. Which is a shame especially with so many many books by new authors begging for a chance.
To make matters worse those new movies which are being written and thrown up on the silver screen like a wet blanket has the dialogue of a group of small children. The plots are predictable, the acting appears forced and the only thing that carries the movie is the special effects.
The insane part is we pay to go see this junk. We spend thousands of dollars on gas, tickets, popcorn and drinks to sit two hours in a darkened room to watch what used to be a "B" movie.
Why do we do that? Have we become numb to the fact that we accept anything that is thrown our way just to be entertained because we are to lazy or complacent to demand better? Have the young actors in the glitter city become so desperate for parts and recognition that they are willing to sign on the dotted line just to be on the silver screen? Have they sold themselves for 30 pieces of silver just to be a star?
There is no class in Hollywood anymore. No class or pride in the writing of scripts- looking for new screenplays- finding the right people for the right parts and taking pride in creating something that is entertaining and has substance. It has become too easy to just regurgitate the old stuff. Lazy minds make lazy films.
It has been a long long time since I paid money to see a movie- The reason- there is not one out there that I would spend money to watch. Where is the desire to create- the fire in the belly- the excitement of something new- fresh and unpredictable?
I will tell you where- it died out with the Cecil B DeMille's of this world – the Katherine Hepburn's the John Wayne's- the May West's, Vincent Price's and others who were bigger than life on the screen. These people could make a statement just by their body language- their facial expressions, their actions. They didn't need special effects, foul language and other false impressions to make a film jump off the screen and into the brain. They stayed with the viewer long after they left the theatre. They were talked about for days, and weeks after the credits were run.
The oscars are a joke. It stands for nothing. Not creative talent- not creative writing not even creative music scores. This is so sad- the next generations will never see true cinema! They will only see a ghost of what was once something beyond great!

Dealing with Grief
While my newest little jewel is not yet out (soon very soon) I wanted to once again let the public know it is on its way. As I have lived quite a long time. (No, I am not in my 20's, 40's or even 50's) I have experienced death on many levels since I was a small child. My four siblings and I were not spared the experience. We were not shielded from death or funerals. We were brought up in the old South where death and grief were accepted as part of living and giving birth. I thank my parents for that. As children we were expected to attend funeral services, to sit with the family during the wake to accept condolences from others with grace, dignity and good manners. We were allowed to grieve to be hurt but we were not allowed to misbehave. I too raised my children in the same manner.
Now many many years later, I have experienced the deaths of many many family members and friends, some who were taken way too soon. However, that timetable is not always our timetable. It is one of those things which is totally beyond our control.
Pennies From Heaven was a need to express grief – a need to outwardly let the world know that those who have died mattered. It is not just my story- it a story from many contributors. Contributors who have lost children, grandparents, parents, even beloved pets. The reason for this book was twofold, the first to help those who were grieving who had never had the opportunity to express that grief to do so. The second reason was to be able to offer comfort and strength to someone else who has lost someone and wondered if they were grieving "correctly".
There is no right or wrong way to grieve, we all grieve in a different way and at different times. While there are several stages of grief- no one of us goes through them at the same time or the same way. We never "get over" the loss. The hole is always there, the pain is always there. However, if we do grieve- we will heal, the pain will diminish- even though we will always feel the loss the hole in our hearts.
Pennies from Heaven doesn't tell anyone what to do- when to do it or how to do it. It is just stories of loss and grief- Many stories talk about the anger, guilt, denial, shock and acceptance of the death of a loved one. You will also find that one or two even talk about the comfort they found when they saw their loved one just for a brief moment. Yes, I believe we are visited by those who have left us.
If we stay stuck in one of the stages of grief, we not only cease to live- (sure we function on a day to day basis but we don't live) we cheat those who we love who have left us. We cheat their memory. We rob ourselves of the life we enjoyed with them. We become worse than being dead-
If they could tell us one thing they would tell us what my sister told me before she died "Live your life." She meant it. She loved life. She loved her family. She didn't want to die. She fought it for almost two years. But she knew what we all know- death comes to all of us. What we have this moment in time is all we are promised. When we waste it we can never get it back.
If you are grieving- you need to read this book. Immerse yourself in the stories that are shared. Stories that the contributors reached down deep into the deepest darkest parts of their hearts to write so that others could find comfort.
No, not all the stories are faith based. We do not cram "religion" down the throats of our readers. Each story is unique to the writer. The only guideline that I asked for was for them to be honest with themselves. They did not disappoint.
This book is currently at the editors and will soon be released. Add it to your to read list. You will not be sorry. Also add it to your gift list, that person will thank you.

Now the Agents are Running Scared
I find it very amusing that since the Genie has been removed from the bottle and writers no longer have to depend on Agents and Traditional Publishers they now want to push back. Case in point:
The chick that wrote the above article demanded that we as indie authors stop calling ourselves that because we were not indie authors.
"AND STOP CALLING YOURSELVES INDIE. You're not that either. Using "indie" interchangeably with "self" only confuses people who want to self-publish and pisses off actual independent publishers. There is a clear difference between publishing with a small press ("indie") and using a vendor ("self"). Misusing/stealing pre-existing terms doesn't give you credibility; it makes you look unprofessional."
Seriously! Let me just give her the Webster definition of Independent aka Indie- " Not influenced or controlled by others in matters of opinion, conduct, etc. thinking or acting for oneself as in independent thinker. Not subject to another's authority or jurisdiction, autonomous: free as in an independent business man. Not influenced by the thought or action of others. Not dependant , or contingent upon something else for existence, operation, etc. No relying on someone or others for support, working for oneself in a private business.
This is just a few of the definitions that Webster gives. Now from the looks of these definitions I can truly state I am an Indie Author. I am in complete control of all my work, from the publishing to the cover art. No one tells me what I can or cannot write, how to write it, when to write it – how to publish it or when to publish it. I control the cover art, the pricing and the market. Ms. LaPolla it doesn't get much more independent than that. So before you spout off about things you have no clue go back and check Webster.
Next point this one is my favorite. She says " Because the thing is, most of the traditional publishing world has moved on and we've stopped thinking about you. We'd rather focus on ourselves. Frankly, we think you should go and do your thing if that's what you want to do. More power to you. This town is big enough for the two of us. We promise."
The reason we have taken matters in our own hands is because you never considered us. You all thought we would just go away and never be heard from again. Yes, the world is big enough for all of us. But it appears that the traditional folks are beginning to push back. The question is why? The is answer is simple fear on your part. We don't need you, but apparently you will need us. We forgot about you long before you all forgot about us.
Traditional houses didn't think they would start losing their authors to indie publishing because they felt as if they had them in the palm of their hands. They were wrong Jackie Collins is a prime example. She found out she can make more money doing her own thing.
Moving on to your next point:
" It's true, there is still a stigma. And here's why: The number of writers self-publishing out of impatience outweighs the number of writers who self-pub because they're making it a career. Which means the overall quality of work being produced through self-publishing is too low to have credibility." This was the best argument you could come up with? Lack of credibility! Allow me to enlighten you- I have read books by traditional authors that one I should have never wasted my money on and two they were about as credible as a suspect who is being interrogated. This dog won't hunt. You will have to do better than that.
"So, self-publishing community, for being called "self," you're not very autonomous. If you want to convince traditional publishing you're its equal, stop drawing comparisons and start recognizing yourselves as your own entity. Self-publishing is not an offshoot of traditional publishing, and it's not a gateway to traditional publishing." This was perhaps my favorite quote. We know we are not an off shoot from traditional publishing- never claimed to be, don't want to be and wouldn't have it if you gave it to us. As for me, I am my own entity. Trust and believe. I have been at this game for a long time.
Yes, I am autonomous because I am an Indie author and if you don't believe it go back to the beginning of this blog or better yet check Webster.
Traditional Houses started this "Civil War" as you called it. We just do our thing. We moved on a long time ago.

text: AdFreak Kevin Durant Goes Jet Setting in New 3-Part Series, Offering Personal Tours of NBA Stars' Home Cities Fly By is co-produced by LeBron James' Uninterrupted and Alaska AirlinesBy Doug Zanger|March 20, 2019 Kevin Durant takes on San Francisco in new series.Uninterrupted/Alaska AirlinesShare By Doug Zanger|March 20, 2019 Share Professional athletes are making savvy moves to help ensure that they are building a bright future for themselves.One great example is NBA superstar Kevin Durant, who stars in a new video series called Fly By that launches today in partnership with LeBron James and Maverick Carter's Uninterrupted platform, home of "The Shop," a barbershop-themed show featuring James and other luminaries, and the media arm of Durant's Thirty Five Ventures and Alaska Airlines.The original three-part series is an intimate, personal tour of some of the cities that NBA players call home. In the first episode, Durant and fellow Golden State Warriors teammate Quinn Cook explore their home city of San Francisco, visiting Mister Jiu's restaurant and the legendary Hyde Street Studios in the Tenderloin. While this is only partially a travelogue, what's most interesting in the beautifully shot and edited film is that we are treated to Durant's philosophies, appreciation and empathy of not only the people he encounters but the city in general. Noting the gravity of being in the Hyde Street Studios neighborhood, he said that watching a Janis Joplin documentary revealed a great deal of "culture and history" and that it made him "feel proud to be part of this community." The short is highly-engaging and connects well to the Seattle-based airline, which is making a stronger push into the San Francisco market after the merger between Alaska Airlines and Virgin America. It also extends the relationship between Durant and the airline, which began last year with "Flight 35," a program that flew 46 athletes from Los Angeles and Oakland to the Las Vegas Classic Bigfoot Hoops in a plane adorned with images of the league and NBA Finals MVP. "When we signed our deal with Kevin Durant, we were feeling great about it because both parties didn't want a typical endorsement deal," said Natalie Bowman, Alaska Airlines' managing director of marketing and advertising. "We knew going into this deal that we were going to look for unique ways to work together."More than an athlete and natural-born storytellerDurant, like James, is at the height of his career and is making the most of his opportunities. His Thirty Five Ventures platform is a compelling mix of investments, media and his foundation. Durant, along with his partner and co-founder Rich Kleiman, has stakes in prominent technology companies like Postmates, Lime, Coinbase and Propel, software created for low-income Americans that are often overlooked by traditional tech innovation. "We've also admired what [Rich, LeBron and Kevin] have built," noted Carter. "They decided to take on the world and their business in a way where they are interested in building something special."But its Durant's natural curiosity combined with the power of Uninterrupted's outstanding ability to tell stories that shows his varied interests."In talking to Kevin and Rich, we learned that Kevin's insight was the fact that, though he plays in the Bay Area and is on the road most of the time, he didn't get enough time to learn about these cities," said Carter. "This was a way to show and tell a story about an athlete who is more than just an athlete, who is interested in the world and curious, with Kevin at the center." This isn't the first time that Durant and James have collaborated on projects together. James, along with journalist Cari Champion took part in a show on Uninterrupted sponsored by Uber. And James has guest starred on Durant's lauded ESPN series The Boardroom."I knew that I wanted to work Maverick and find ways to work together. It's clear that we've wanted to do more together," said Kleiman.

|" Ahhh, I'm tired out! I really need to get some...Zzzz.... "
—Blue Bomber, Super Bomberman R
Blue Bomberman (officially known as Blue Bomber) is a recurring character in the Bomberman series. He mainly appears as an alternate skin to allow for more players in multiplayer mode.
Notable appearances
Blue Bomber appears in Bomberman (TG-16) and Bomberman '93 as part of Black Bomberman's gang. Along with Red, Green, and Yellow Bombers, he helped Black Bomberman in his evil ways until they were defeated by White Bomberman. In later appearances, he is a supporting good character.
Bomberman (TG-16)
Blue Bomber moves quickly and randomly. If he lines up horizontally or vertically with Bomberman, he will speed up and move in his direction as long as Bomberman is in his sight. He cannot place bombs, but he will harm Bomberman on collision.
Periodically, Blue Bomber will stop moving and transform into a ball of fire, shooting one or two fireballs in random directions, which will harm Bomberman and detonate bombs on collision. While on fire, he is invincible, and will detonate bombs on contact. After some time, he will stop and revert to his ordinary form.
Blue Bomber takes two hits to defeat and is worth 1000 points.
Bomberman '93Motorbomber. He moves quickly and randomly, charging at Bomberman on sight and harming him on collision. Occasionally, he will place a Land Mine Bomb, which has a Fire range of one. He takes two hits to defeat and is worth 2000 points.
Super Bomberman 4
Blue Bomber is sucked into the black hole along with his friends in Super Bomberman 4. He is captured by Hammer Bomber and can be freed from his Cage to help the player. He will drop bombs to help destroy Soft Blocks and monsters.
Super Bomberman R
In Super Bomberman R, Blue Bomber is a playable character. He is the laziest of his siblings; he is extremely lethargic at all times and often asks for just "5 more minutes..." However, underneath all of that lethargy secretly lies a skilled technological hacker. Blue Bomber demonstrates this hidden ability on Planet Brainwave by deactivating the encrypted code pad and saving the planet from collapsing into cyberspace, at least after being sufficiently motivated by Green Bomber. In Story Mode, Battle Mode and Grand Prix, Blue Bomber can be seen sleeping with a pillow, used as an idle animation. If he waits too long, he falls asleep a little.
In Bomberman B-Daman Bakugaiden and Bomberman B-Daman Bakugaiden Victory, Blue Bomber appears as one of the protagonists.
In the Bomberman Land series and related games, Blue Bomber makes an appearance alongside Green Bomber. Together, they idolize Gold Bomber. While his name is unchanged in Japanese versions, English localizations refer to him as Kid Blue.
- Blue Bomberman and White Bomberman are the only members of the Bomberman Bros. to have the same squared buckles on their belts in the game.
- Blue's technological genius in Super Bomberman R could be a nod to the B-Daman series where Blue Bomber is also a technological genius there.
- In previous Bomberman games, Blue Bomberman's belt was colored pink, but this was changed to a red color in newer games. The character model in Bomberman Generation shows Blue using his pink belt, while Black Bomberman and Red Bomberman share their purple belts.

Through December, my perfumes will constantly change. I want to be finishing off my perfumes at this stage. In the hopes that I can re-purchase the ones I have liked through the year as well trying any that I get at Christmas.
I have had 2 signature perfumes this year that I am getting towards the end of. The first one being the Diesel Loverdose perfume, this has a cinnamon sweet scent to it. Making it a perfect Autumn scent as it has that spice and sweet side to it. This is the perfect day perfume for me.
The second favorite was a luxury perfume for me, it is the My Burberry perfume. I have always been a lover of Burberry, seeing as I can only dream for now about that £800 coat that is calling my name from their stores. The perfume is a very close second. With quite an elegant powerful scent to it, I prefer to wear this mainly for special occasions as I don't want to just be wasting it.
These are just some of the scents I have been loving through Winter. If there are any accents that you have been loving feel free to comment them down below.
Until next time, Chloe!

Health and Fitness – Meditation For Newbies
Not too long ago, as much more people today in the West are turning out
Not too long ago, as much more people today in the West are turning out to be informed of the worth of health and fitness, they are working towards Eastern traditions like Yoga and Tai Chi, which emphasize meditation. Once they find out how to meditate they are getting the outstanding health and fitness added benefits meditation provides.
The health and fitness added benefits of meditation include:
* Strength alignment of the complete body
* Inner cleansing of the body
* Improvement in wellbeing of key organs
* Fewer worry / panic
* Clear mind
* Much more oxygen to the cells
* Much more vitality
* Positive mood
The most crucial rationale to meditate is since it just would make you sense much better. And if you do not recognize what feeling excellent will do for you, you have skipped the issue of existence.
Enlighten you
Outside of the health and fitness added benefits of meditation the real rationale for meditating is to enlighten you. You do this by mixing with your soul.
You do not have to call it a "soul" if you do not like that phrase, call it no matter what you want. All that is crucial is that you notice there is an vitality power that is separate from your body that keeps you alive in your body.
This vitality source is a much higher, and broader section of you than you can start off to comprehend conceptually, but it is only crucial to acknowledge that it exists. You can get in contact with it by meditation.
Meditation, by breathing methods, will instruct you how to quiet your imagining mind and focus your attention on your inner-becoming. When you are capable to do so (as with everything this usually takes regular exercise) you will sense the wonderful added benefits of meditation. I can not really explain the peaceful, beneficial feeling of meditation in words and phrases, you really have to working experience it for you.
How To Understand The Procedures
There are unlimited meditation instruction textbooks, CD's and videos available on the online to instruct you how to meditate. Amazon has some excellent materials if you just style in the search phrase phrase "meditation."
You tube also has lots of cost-free tutorial videos to instruct you lots of diverse meditation methods as well as Yoga and Tai Chi. You can also enroll in Yoga, Tai Chi, or meditation lessons in your neighborhood space.
Other Factors to Assistance You
The environment you are in can be a very important aspect of your meditation. When you get excellent at meditating you can do it any where whenever, but when you start off, and for perfect situations, it is excellent to have a extremely comforting location to be.
Quite a few people today even make there own meditation space or place in their house. Some others always meditate out in character. Do no matter what you need to have to do to find a location where by you can rest.
Then it is from time to time best to use possibly a CD or DVD of guided meditation with a person instructing you, or to choose out music that relaxes you. It is extremely useful to be capable to meditate in silence, but lots of find it much much more tricky than with music or an instructor.

Iran's Ridiculously Cheap Electricity Attracting Bitcoin Miners
Iran is attracting a growing number of bitcoin miners due to its cheap electricity, which has been said sometimes to reach lows of $0.0006 per kilowatt-hour.
Reports have surfaced of miners shutting shop or dumping their mining rigs (particularly in China) due to the unreasonably high costs of mining and a decline in BTC prices- ostensibly meaning that most miners operate at a loss or cannot recover their capex.
In one report, the Scandinavian countries are seen as one of the best destinations due to their cheap electricity and crypto-friendly environments; even though Norway recently scrapped electricity tax subsidies for miners raising power costs from $0.00056 per kilowatt-hour to $0.019.
As it turns out then, at $0.0006, Iran could offer the cheap power miners need, though setting shop in the country remains the most significant hurdle a potential miner would need to navigate.
According to local miner accounts, investors from Spain, France, Ukraine, and Armenia have visited mining farms in Iran with the aim of exploiting the cheap energy on offer.
Tehran-based blockchain researcher Nima Dehqan further disclosed that a local startup Areatak recently signed an agreement with a Spanish investor looking to set up mining farms in the country.
Dehqan said that although electricity costs in Iran have tended to be very low, the devaluation of the country's rial, mostly due to the impact of U.S sanctions, means that the available opportunities have become even more alluring.
The Chinese connection
Chinese miners were said to have dumped thousands of mining equipment on the streets- now sold as secondhand rigs- in the wake of considerable losses.
Now evidence shows that a good number of these "battered miners" are likely to end in Iran. China, which according to a Coinshares report controls 60 percent of mining, offers cheap renewable energy.
However, it can be a bit higher compared to what is on offer in Iran. Reportedly, hydropower stations in Sichuan province provide electricity at the cost of 0.15 yuan ($0.02) per kilowatt-hour, which can rise to $0.04 during winter months.
That can explain the move by a local Chinese startup to deploy 2,000 miners in Iran. The firm has stated that Iran's "vast natural gas resources" has helped keep electricity costs low.
However, a problem arises in the sense that there is no bitcoin mining hardware maker in Iran, which means investors have to import miners. The availability of cheap secondhand miners from China makes investing in Iran reasonable.
"With electricity that cheap, you can generate profits in one to two months."
According to a local crypto miner in Iran, miners in the country mostly rely on imported hardware, with a few intermediary companies setting shop in the country to import the machines.
Even then, those who do the importation are people with "a lot of power and money," but they carry out most of their business in secret.
The secrecy is due to stringent regulations and the fear of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps that can detain or confiscate machines at border points.
But the potential to access cheap power hasn't gone unnoticed, with Chinese bitcoin millionaire Chandler Hongcai Guo posting a video on Weibo in October in which he notes that Iran offers an excellent opportunity for miners.
He asks those interested to visit the country and carry out some due diligence as it is "suitable for hosting secondhand miners that are on the edge of shutting down in China."
He also added that one could get profitable within a month or two.
U.S. led sanctions keeping out large-scale miners
While getting mining machines into Iran and establishing partnerships with locals is a big challenge, the issue gets even more complicated for multinational mining firms and wealthy individuals who would wish to do business there.
The main concern is the U.S led sanctions on Iran, which stipulates stiffer penalties for companies and individuals with U.S ties.
Guo, who has property in California, reportedly hasn't tried to visit Iran as a result of the economic sanctions. And the same applies to large mining companies and hardware makers who are hesitant despite the apparent attraction Iran's cheap power offers.
Most of those making their way to Iran are therefore individuals or farms at a "much smaller scale."
Despite the appeal the country offers, the cryptocurrency mining industry in the country still operates in a regulatory grey area.
Things are about to change though, with parliament expected to ratify an earlier announcement that the government recognizes the mining industry as legal.

Any remodeling of your home can turn into a huge operation, especially replacing windows. New windows can give your whole house a fresh new look and also greatly improve energy efficiency. Before starting your window replacement project, however, it's good to keep some principles in mind. The following information will allow you to make the right choices when choosing the best way to replace your windows. When you choose energy-efficient windows to replace your old windows, the cost of the job will be offset by savings on your heat bills. It is nice to be able to save money on the heating costs, but being comfortable during the year is what makes it all worthwhile.
Triple pane windows will give you the best insulating value, but their initial costs will also be more. How much you want to invest in energy-efficient windows will also depend to some degree on where you live. If you live in a mild climate, you may not have to worry too much about this so you can focus more on the appearance and durability of the windows. If you're going to have a contractor or window replacement company do the job for you, it's a good idea to get several estimates before making your choice. Remember that you'll be looking at, or through your windows for years to come, so pick ones you like. While windows serve the practical function of keeping your home insulated, they're also part of the decor of your home, so make sure they fit well with your furniture and overall look of your house. For example, you can get old fashioned windows that will go well with an older, antique-y type home. If your home is contemporary, though, you'd obviously be better off with modern style windows. When your windows and everything else goes well together, this will also make your home more attractive to buyers if you ever want to put it up for sale.
To add value to your house, you can remove your old windows, and install some new, energy-efficient windows. If you want to change the appearance of your home, then give it a new paint job, and change out all of the windows. In these times of escalating fuel bills, it can also reduce your heating costs, which is one of the best reasons to do it. With the right information you will be able to make the best choice when it comes to window replacements.

The most important thing for a product manager, is to be right. If you're not right over 80% of the time, you're just not cutting it. If you use all the right tools, but are still wrong, it doesn't matter. And if you're right and don't use any tools, it doesn't matter. But of course, using the right tools can help you be right more often, so let's take a look at some of the tools that help you do that.
Getting Started
There's always the classic SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats). It's a simple tool that helps you get the lay of the land, so to speak. In a startup, you likely already know the answers, but sometimes writing things down helps crystalize things, or at least communicate things to other people that haven't thought about it as much. I don't use it much personally, but if you're new to this, it's a great place to start.
"SWOT en" by Xhienne - SWOT pt.svg. Licensed under CC BY-SA 2.5 via Wikimedia Commons.
In an early stage startup, you've got to have a great vision for where you're going (and a mission and shared values), but that doesn't mean having a rigid 3 year roadmap. Your world changes too quickly and you're learning new things about your business every day. But that also doesn't mean you don't need planning at all. You have to make sure you're doing the most valuable work at any given time. Just focus on one quarter at a time. Specifically, answer the question, what would be stupid for us not to do in the next 90 days? Make sure to include your customers' perspective in the planning, but don't forget to ask engineering as well. They're close to the problem and have great ideas that customers may never ask for, yet truly need.
Put all the ideas up on a board, with a small description for each. Pandora used a single presentation slide for each idea. Marty Cagan pitches a Product Opportunity Assessment with 10 key questions. Lately I just use a Trello card with 4 simple questions (and links to any relevant links to prior art, proof of concepts, or supporting documents):
- What's the problem being solved?
- Why is now the time to solve it?
- Roughly how much effort is involved and from which teams?
- How is this going to help us achieved our business objectives?
Then filter the ideas down to the most important big ideas. Get the exec team together and vote on them. Remember, focus means saying "no" to a thousand good ideas.
Ship Small and Iterate
When working on a project, don't get caught up in defining everything up front, even if you're only looking at 3 months or less. The sooner you get things out of your head and into customers hands, the faster you'll learn. I'm a big fan of product discovery popularized by The Lean Startup movement. Ship small and iterate.
Aligned Empowerment
Your team will grow too large to do the above planning all together. And really, at some point your company will be capable of delivering more than one person can organize. You'll need to hire more product managers, and divide up the product space. Resist the temptation to keep central control over everything. Empowering small teams, each with a product manager, to make decisions about what they work on is incredibly powerful. The people closest to the work should be trusted to know what to tackle next. And teams work best when they've been working together for a while so durable feature teams are your friend. But don't let it devolve into anarchy. Your teams need to be aligned to common goals. A compelling and well-articulated vision is key here.
Eventually, as your startup grows, you're going to need a roadmap. Especially for enterprise customers, they're not just buying your product, they're buying the future version of you. But rather than submit to their demands, create an agile roadmap that understands that you can only see clearly for so far and your vision gets blurry past 6 months.
Start with your product vision, brainstorm ideas, separate the big "boulders" from the "pebbles", then categories the boulders by level of commitment. Don't be too concerned about making sure everything is committed with a timeline. Some projects can be worth committing to even if you don't have a clear idea how long they'll take to finish. Then of course there's those projects you can't completely commit to, but will likely deliver at some point. And then there's the big visionary stuff; the ideas that might not show up in a year, or even five years, but these aspirational goals help define you. Lastly, it's just as important to write down what you won't do. Once you've got all that, you can cluster things down into a sharable roadmap.
Also consider the "problem roadmap" rather than the "product roadmap".
Lean canvas
Yeah, you can try out the Lean Canvas, especially if you're still pre-funding. I haven't used it myself, and I find the format rather dry, but it seems to be gathering momentum.
Well, that's all I've got time to cover today, and I feel like I've left out a lot of great pieces like balancing customer requests, metric-moving improvements, and visionary features. And the Think Big, Think Small exercise. Maybe I'll cover those another day.

- Object 4 – To develop, by precept and example, a more intelligent, aggressive, and serviceable citizenship.
- Object 5 – To provide, through Kiwanis clubs, a practical means to form enduring friendships, to render altruistic service, and to build better communities.
- Object 6 – To cooperate in creating and maintaining that sound public opinion and high idealism which make possible the increase of righteousness, justice, patriotism, and goodwill.

32 golden rules for the photographer and photo model
And although photography is a creative matter, there are some unwritten rules here. Most often they are written in a joking calm. How – you read below …
Photographer's rules
Select the plot to be shot.
Establish contact with the model or make it so that she does not see you at all. Continue reading
How not to be ashamed of the camera
Many of us, being in front of the camera, feel embarrassed, do not know what to do, where to look, what to occupy hands and what to do with our legs. How to be?
An unsure person depends on the assessment of others, on generally accepted patterns of behavior, familiar ideas. It is limited only to the nearest, visible goals, without using the opportunities available to it as much as possible. Continue reading
Dictionary for the photographer and model
I have already told in one of the previous articles what TFP and TFCD are. But I realized that this is clearly not enough. Exclusive Buyou, Langery, Editorial … Girls who come across a model or near-business business for the first time, who decide to make a portfolio for themselves or just shoot for themselves, as a rule, do not understand these and many other professional terms used in the environment of photographers and models. Therefore, I want to make a small (but replenishable) dictionary on this topic. The material is based on open information from the Internet. Continue reading

The Religious Portions of the Shih King/Part I/Odes of Shang/Ode 4
Profoundly wise were Shang, And long had there appeared the omens.
When the waters of the deluge spread vast abroad, Yû arranged and divided the regions of the land, And assigned to the exterior great states their boundaries, With their borders extending all over. Then the chief of Sung was beginning to be great, And God raised up the son , and founded Shang .
The dark king exercised an effective sway . Charged with a small state, he commanded success: Charged with a large state, he commanded success . He followed his rules of conduct without error; Wherever he inspected , they responded.
The favour of God did not leave , And in Thang was found the fit object for its display. Thang was not born too late, And his wisdom and reverence daily advanced: Brilliant was the influence of his character for long. God he revered, And God appointed him to be the model for the nine regions.
He received the rank-tokens of the states, small and large, Which depended on him like the pendants of a banner:--So did he receive the blessing of Heaven. He was neither violent nor remiss, Neither hard nor soft. Gently he spread his instructions abroad, And all dignities and riches were concentrated in him.
He received the tribute of the states, small and large, And he supported them as a strong steed : So did he receive the favour of Heaven. He displayed everywhere his valour, Unshaken, unmoved, Unterrified, unscared: All dignities were united in him.
The martial king displayed his banner, And with reverence grasped his axe. It was like a blazing fire which no one can repress. The root, with its three shoots, Could make no progress, no growth . The nine regions were effectually secured by Thang. Having smitten Wei and Kû, He dealt with Kün-wû and with Kieh of Hsiâ.
Formerly, in the middle of the period , There was a time of shaking and peril . But truly did Heaven deal with him as a son, And sent him down a high minister, Namely, Â-hăng , Who gave his assistance to the king of Shang.

Stargazers in search of their next lunar fix are gonna be in for a treat next week, as a 'super snow moon' is forecast to be the biggest and brightest full moon of 2019. Huzzah!
Normally 19 February is no date to get excited for – winter's lingering, we're still having to at least pretend to hold up our health-based New Year's Resolutions and Valentine's Day has just sucked the life out of us once more.
But fret not, because this month's full moon – set to hit its peak Tuesday – is expected to be the brightest of the year, making it the second super moon in a row after the 'super blood wolf moon' on 21 January.
So instead of getting through the Tuesday trudge, why not gather up your loved ones, get the binoculars out (or telescope if you're really into this stuff) and have yourself a mid-week lunar party?
The full moon in February is often referred to as the snow moon because of the time of year that it occurs, as the month often sees the heaviest snowfall (although it's not looking likely here in Blighty).
When it comes to the science behind the cosmic phenomenon, according to NASA, a super moon unfolds when the moon's orbit is closest (perigee) to Earth at the same time it is full.
a href="https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/moons/earths-moon/what-is-a-supermoon/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The space agency's website says: "When a full moon appears at perigee [its closest point to Earth] it is slightly brighter and larger than a regular full moon – and that's where we get a 'super moon'," adding that the phrase was coined in 1979.
Although the super snow moon will be at its fullest on Tuesday morning, it'll still be visible from Sunday night through to Tuesday evening, appearing around 14% largest and 30% brighter than usual.
Unfortunately it won't be quite as colourful as last month's super wolf moon – but it's promised to still be quite the natural display, nonetheless. Mother Nature's gearing up for a party, so don't be late!
And if you are, don't worry, because the next super moon – known as the 'full worm moon' – can be seen in the UK on 21 March, just several hours before the official start of Spring.
Incidentally, the weather looks pretty mixed over the next few days, so it's still a lottery as to whether you'll actually see this special moon.
May the odds be ever in your favour.

I'm growing cucs on the balcony in a container and I can assure you that my first cucumber of the year was absolutely delish. My plant looks like it has another dozen or so on the go, so I'm pretty stoked.
Gardening on a Smaller Scale
There is no way that you can compare gardening in a full size zone 3 yard and gardening on a balcony in zone 8. In Edmonton I had a 60 x 120 foot lot and I took advantage of most of the property for my hobby. By the time I sold my house I had seven composters, several raised beds for vegetables and I'd converted half the front lawn to garden. Much to my (late) mother's chagrin I even grew corn in my front yard.
I had gogi berries, raspberries and haskap (honey berries). I ate Carmine Jewel cherries from my tree in the backyard while waiting for dozens of tomato plants to produce their yearly bounty of juicy plum tomatoes for canning. I've grown tomatillos for salsa verde, I've had a spaghetti squash plant produce so many squash that I had to take them to the food bank, and I've eaten carefully stored carrots and potatoes well in to January.
Those days are over but not forgotten.
A balcony can support all sorts of plants, including fruit and veggies. Breeding has produced a bounty of fauna that is satisfied with life in a container, although container living means much more attention to their care.
Container plants need a good quality soil that retains moisture. They need regular watering and fertilizing – everything they need will have to be provided at regular intervals. Two hot days in a row with a moderate wind and balcony plants can be baked in situ.
My balcony is east-facing so it gets a strong morning sun which abates at around 11 am and by 4 pm it becomes a cool place to sit and enjoy the sound of birds and a gentle breeze. So far all of my herbs and flowers are doing spectacularly and I've potted two tomatoes, a Hungarian pepper and a cucumber. I've got two different climbers – a black-eyed susan vine and a specially bred clematis which is going like crazy (I'll blog about that another day).
So although I can't garden on the same scale as I have in the past, I can still enjoy my hobby. And hopefully I can enjoy some fresh tomatoes in a couple of months.
A Simple Way to Harvest and Preserve Garlic
I like to make my life easier, so I'm always looking for the simplest ways to preserve and consume my garden produce.
Today I dug up half of my garlic. Garlic is ready when the bottom four leaves of the stalk have turned brown. For Zone 3, this is usually mid to late August.
After separating the cloves I carefully washed and patted them dry with a towel.
I then tossed the cloves into my tiny food processor and added enough vegetable oil to cover them.
I used the pulse button to control the chopping until I had the consistency I wanted, just slightly larger than a mince.
I put the resulting mixture in a jar, topped it up with a bit more veggie oil and that's it. The mixture lasts for several weeks in the fridge and after I've used up all the garlic I have fabulous oil to use as well.
Note: Storing garlic in oil at room temperature can result in proliferation of botulism, and botulism poisoning is a potentially fatal condition. Always store the oil at less than 3 degrees C and use it only if cooking thoroughly.
A Vegetable Growing Cheat Sheet
Square Foot Seed Tape: My Lightbulb Moment
Have you ever had an idea that was so awesome that you've thought, "OMG I'm a genius, why has nobody ever thought of this before"?
Well, this week I had one of these inspired brain explosions and I came up with Square Foot Garden Tape…or Sheets.
Anybody who plants their garden using the square foot technique has discovered that typical carrot and radish tapes don't work. What we need is a sheet of thin paper with the seeds imbedded in the appropriate pattern.
Unfortunately a little research led me to discover that I wasn't the first person to have this LED light bulb moment. Turns out it's been done before.
No worries, I went ahead and did my version of square foot seed tape using Sweet Nantes carrot seeds and tissue paper cut to size. I decided to plant 25 seeds per sq ft, which is more than the 16 recommended by Mel Bartholomew in his best selling book "All New Square Foot Gardening". After laying out the pattern on a sheet of tissue paper, I placed a dab of flour/water paste on each dot, the embedded a carrot seed in the paste.
When it came time to plant my garden, all I had to do was lay the sheets on the soil, water them gently and cover them with a thin layer of dirt. It was so much easier on my back.
I planted some carrots the "traditional" way as well so that I could determine if there was any difference in germination time. I'll let you know in a future post.
For more information on square foot gardening you should have a look at this previous post.
Cold Frame on a Budget
I have a two tiered raised bed that happens to be five feet long and four feet wide, each tier being two feet wide on its own. I usually plant tomatoes in the upper level and lettuce in the lower level.
Last year I found someone selling an old window that fit perfectly over one of my 2×5 raised beds and I bought it for $10. Instant cold bed!
Switching things up for 2014, I planted cucumbers, onion, lettuce and spinach in the upper tier in late April and covered the whole lot with the two-pane glass window.
It's been cool on and off since then but we've also had some fairly warm days when the temperature in the improvised cold frame gets rather balmy, encouraging those seeds to germinate long before they might elsewhere in the garden. The result? Hopefully I'll be eating my lettuce 2-3 weeks before my neighbors.
THIS. This is Why I Love to Garden
2013 Edible Garden Tour a Great Success!
I want to thank Claudia Bolli and Amanda for bringing a bunch of fabulous green thumbs to my place to view my garden and yard. It was great to meet people who love gardening as much as I do.
