Technology has lots of great benefits, including making the way we manage our lives more efficient. Money management apps, in particular, are proving to be a really useful solution to a whole range of different issues, from problems budgeting through to motivation to save. You don't have to move your entire financial life online but the features, such as push notifications and automatic access to balances, these apps offer can have all sorts of positive effects when it comes to motivating and keeping track. Use your smart phone to make a difference to your finances with these money management apps.
The Debt Manager
Knowledge is power when it comes to managing your money and this app works to simply show you what debts you have any what there is left to pay. You update the totals with each payment made and you'll get the satisfaction of seeing them reduce, as well as the peace of mind of knowing that you're on top of the situation. Progress bars will show you what you're achieving and the goal and target setting is a great way to keep motivated.
UK Tax Calculators 2015-2016
Essential for anyone who is self employed, the UK Tax Calculators 2015-2016 app will give you insight into what your tax is likely to be, no matter how many income sources you have. You can calculate tax deductions for capital gains, dividend income and property rental profits and be safe in the knowledge that the taxman isn't going to hit you with a huge bill at the end of the year that you weren't expecting.
For a more integrated approach to money management, MoneyHub is a great option – this app combines a debt manager with options for budgeting and setting savings goals, as well as projected balances for your savings accounts based on data you provide. There are in-app upgrades that offer access to extra features, such as an automatic connection to your accounts.
Xmas Budget
An app specifically aimed at helping people to control their festive spending, Xmas Budget has plenty of Christmas cheer but a sensible approach to the season. You can use the app to work out what you actually want to spend vs what you need to spend and then gradually tick off items such as presents for overseas friends and family, once they have been bought, wrapped and dispatched.
Money Dashboard
Instead of trying to keep track of all your balances by going from one site to another, the Money Dashboard app offers you the chance to see everything together in one place. This can help enormously when it comes to making purchasing decisions or working out budgets. The app is compatible with UK credit card companies and banks and uses the same high level of security as most banking apps.
This is essentially a spending tracker app that allows you to keep an eye on what your outgoings are and to adjust your budget accordingly. Categorise spending into specific areas – use those that are preset or make your own. You'll be able to use the app to see how much you spend on each category of your life over the month, which can be quite an informative experience, particularly if you're not that great at keeping track or you tend to bury your head in the sand. You can set your own savings goals that you've calculated on the basis of what you want to have left at the end of each month and the app will send you a notification if you forget to input what you've spent on any given day.
Savings Goal
This is a pretty simple app with an effective premise – visually demonstrating how well you're doing in terms of reaching your savings goal. There's very little to get to grips with when it comes to this app as it's incredibly straightforward – just set your savings goal and input the date when you want to have completed it and the app will work out how much you need to save and when. It will then track your progress along the way to show how close you are to the target and keep you motivated.
Particularly useful for business travellers and/or freelancers and the self-employed, Expensify has innovative features that allow you to keep track of everything that you spend. You can take photos of receipts and invoices and these are automatically stored in your account. The clever app will also automatically fill in expense details or attach the image of the receipt to the relevant credit card expense, which means that you don't have to do it.

Before you can shop 'til you drop on Black Friday, you have to find a parking spot.
In San Diego, that's no small task, so it helps to have a strategy.
Chris Lane, Director of Marketing and Business Development at Fashion Valley, says the best times to find parking are from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Lane recommends using mall entrances other than the main entrance. For Fashion Valley, that includes the JCPenney entrance off Fashion Valley Road and the back entrance from Camino de la Reina. Both avoid traffic backup on Friars Road.
After entering the mall, Lane suggests starting with the A, B, and C parking garages behind Macy's.
"Check the lower levels of the parking structures, as they may have more spots available and have easier in and out access," he said, adding that valet parking is also available.
Another way to avoid the hassle is to use public transit. All MTS buses and trolleys will run on their normal schedules Friday, with the exception of the Rapid bus. Some malls have their own designated trolley stops, but all are accessible by public transit. (Click here for a complete list of bus and trolley service to San Diego shopping centers.)
If you do venture out by car, the International Parking Institute offers the following parking lot tips:
1. Exercise caution when backing out. Twenty-five percent of parking lot accidents are caused by backing moves.
2. Obey the law.
3. Keep your headlights on (even in the daytime.)
4. Park further away from the building for less hassle.
5. Follow etiquette basics. When waiting for a spot, do not block other parking space seekers. Also, remember to return shopping carts to designated cart corral areas.
6. Be a mindful pedestrian. Don't text while walking or jaywalk.
7. Watch for small children.
8. Buckle up and be patient. Even low speed collisions can result in injuries. Resist the temptation to honk the horn
9. Stay alert and aware of your surroundings. Park in well-lit areas and always make sure you've rolled up your car windows and locked your doors. Have your keys out and ready when returning to your car.
10. Set an alarm if you're parked in a metered spot.

Online art business: Inspirations from Hong Kong gallery director Alice Zhang
Art Radar speaks to Alice Zhang, director of Mischmasch, the first Hong Kong art company to develop an online art buying platform, who sheds some light on the current online art selling movement and suggests some ways to make it work for you.
Since online businesses models developed by art companies like Artnet, Saatchi Online, Saffronart, Art sy, VIP Art Fair and Paddle8 have proven successful, it is clear that selling art online is a model here to stay. We look at a purely Asian success story, Hong Kong-based Mischmasch, which combines a physical gallery space with online sale and exhibition.
Not just sales: online art community important
After finishing her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree at The Rhode Island School of Design in 2006, Alice came to Hong Kong and set up a design company called Plus A Design Limited. In her free time while working as a consultant in an architectural company, she started Mischmasch, an online artist community, in 2008. The next year, 2009, Alice founded Mischmasch Gallery, which is funded, trademarked and owned by Plus A Design Limited.
Mischmasch is a German word, taken from one of writer Lewis Carroll's periodicals, which explains why the website is often mistaken as being German. But this mistake turned out to be promotional for the online artist community, attracting many European artists to join. Now, it represents artists from over 55 regions, and "is not just about the big hubs like Berlin and Beijing, New York and London," says Zhang. "We really have these funky places, places that nobody has heard of, which is really fun and exciting," such as the relatively obscure locations of Transylvania and Ecuador.
The variety of art genres available on Mischmasch Online ranges from two dimensional works such as paintings, sketches and graphic designs to three dimensional works such as architecture, installation and industrial design. Animation, experimental and documentary video works are also available for purchase and some can be viewed on the site before buying.
Mischmasch modelled on Facebook
Inspired by social networking websites such as Flickr and Facebook, sites on which artists currently share their work, Zhang wanted to create a "well-designed" and "well-branded" online community for artists.
A lot of people make websites just to get a lot of users or make a lot of money…. Our goal is never to make lots and lots of money or get lots and lots of users. I think a lot of websites miss the [ideal] outcome: How do you improve people's lives…? So many artists don't have a platform to feature their work, especially in China, so [Mischmasch] makes it easier to promote Chinese artists to Westerners and vice versa.
Similar to Facebook, Mischmasch's registered users can upload as many artworks as they would like onto their personalised page. Other users can comment and vote on their works and they can, in turn, comment and vote on the work of others. Instead of using the Facebook 'Like' button, users vote by giving a maximum of five points for each piece. The website constantly re-arranges the listing of works on the main or front page of the site so that the more points and commentaries a piece of art receives, the higher up on the page it is ranked.
Online art buying the way forward
Zhang believes that online art business models are bound to succeed. "There's almost a race between various people on the Internet to figure out how to make [this online art sales model] really work," she said.
One of the current challenges facing online art businesses is finding a way to present images online in a way that replicates or compares to the real experience of viewing an artwork.
I know that Saatchi [Gallery] have a website that's very … similar to what we're doing and they're also really trying hard to figure out how to make images look good online. They came up with this like slideshow thing with all the images at the bottom. I think there are other ways to do that.
Social commentary adds value to works
The Internet is a powerful taste-changing (or taste-developing) mechanism, Zhang has found. Graphic images, meaning design and illustrative works, usually receive the highest number of user comments because they stand out on the website. Zhang uses the work of Hong-Kong-based artist Emily Lau as an example,
We started working with her … when the website was launched…. She's one of our success stories. At the end of summer [2010] she was featured in a New York-based magazine and then the senior vice chairperson [of a large banking firm in New York] bought one of her paintings. [Interest in] her work snowballed.
[Her work became popular] because people are [now] so used to using the Internet and this type of image looks good online…. Because they're familiar with looking at those kind of images [online] they like them even more. Then when you go to an art fair you're more likely to see [the] kind of work [you've been seeing online]. I think that's so interesting and so powerful, the fact that people's tastes are changing because of the Internet.
I think graphic images, [an illustrative work with two-dimensional visuals, striking imagery and urban themes like] Emily [Lau's] works, are definitely going to rise in value. Because it's not just pretty, it's pretty and at the same time it [engages in] social commentary. The more you look at it and the more you interact with it, the more you feel attached to it.
Smart website layout is key
Mischmasch was originally developed as an online international artist community and because of this, social interaction between users has always been a key focus.
What other people think of an image [will] determine the way that it looks [to one person]. … I want to be able to throw the images around and see what other people think of [them].
The current layout of the website is essentially user-controlled – "social networking and the Web is so open and democratic," says Zhang – with the images that are most popular, selected by users via the various voting and comment systems made available to them, appearing in prime viewing spots on the website, such as on the front page.
You really have to reinvent the users' experience when viewing images online…. You could say that it's a kind of 'bubble up' [experience]. [The content] bubbles to the top; the [highest ranked images] are the ones with more points and the [lowest-ranked] ones are the ones with less points, less clicks, less votes, less Tweets, and less Facebook ['Likes']….
Challenges of online art business
While Zhang is making it all sound so easy, she does acknowledge that there are a number of major challenges to running a successful online art gallery. Chief among them are…
Establishing a good name
Figuring out how to make people trust us [Mischmasch], because [gaining] trust on the Internet is not a 'chicken and egg' situation. You have to give trust before you can get it [back]. So we're all about transparency. We've never intimidated people into buying anything [because we know] we are never going to educate anyone [that way]. So we lay out all the information [on our website]. You can read the artists' biographies, you can read other people's comments, you can read what we have to say about them….
Breaking down art world elitism
You have this contradiction: social networking is open, anybody can make comments, and then you have the art industry, which is closed and hierarchical; it's really elitist in a way. Artists who have completed a full year [at] art school or who have finished a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) at a really prestigious school might not be happy that 'kids' are uploading their work online and selling it and getting [art] shows. There will always be people who are angry with what we're doing.
The world is big enough now, I think, for everybody to play in. We have artists who have never gone to art school but we also have artists who have an MFA, who've held a dozen shows.
[In] the art world there are no rules; it's the most irregulated market ever. Maybe it's a good thing that there's no formula [for how] to succeed and no formula [for how] to promote an artist. But whenever there's a clash of fundamentals, this openness and closeness [of the art market], really interesting things start to happen.
Physical versus virtual
In May 2011, Art Radar published an article that questioned why Saffronart and Artnet had recently opened new gallery spaces or otherwise established a physical sales presence. Was their online business format not standing up to the more traditional gallery model? For Zhang, a physical presence is essential to gaining the trust of artists and, most importantly, collectors.
This space [Mischmasch Gallery in Hong Kong] is really a part of the promotion of the brand. I would say that now, especially in Asia and in Hong Kong, it's important [for people] to see that we're physical. We have an address and we have a phone number.
I am able to sell works to people that I've never met, that I've only emailed, and to people from very different cultures, [from] New York and LA [Los Angeles], and I think I was able to sell to them because they trust me. [They know] that I'm in Hong Kong, not in some obscure city in China, and that I went to an American art school…
We have regular shows that bring people in to Mischmasch and that's a stepping stone to getting [them] into the … online experience. Plus it's good to be able to have people come in and ask questions. We have a very comfortable environment; we're not intimidating in any way so anyone can ask us any question.
Market value of art sold online
Past transactions conducted on Mischmasch Online fall somewhere in the range of HKD 2,332 to 8,000 (about 300 to 1000 USD). But Zhang admits to the success of some websites where works go for thousands of dollars, or more, in the case of Saffronart's summer art auction in June 2011 where Indian artist Tyeb Mehta's Untitled (Kali) sold for USD1,317,161.
There's already half a dozen websites that are doing well selling art online, with different degrees of prices.
UGALLERY sell paintings for 2000 US dollars. I've always thought, 'Would you really buy a painting that's worth 2000 dollars US on the Web? But apparently that happens. And Saatchi Gallery has always had an online platform, which they curate,… and most of [the works on that website] are worth at least a thousand dollars.
While the Internet provides an alternative way for the sale and auction of art, Zhang doesn't think that it will ever replace the traditional art business model. "I don't think the big auction houses and gallery companies are ever going to go away. I think they exist for each other, kind of feeding each other."
Mischmasch is currently undergoing phase two of its development. Soon, it will put on a different skin and launch an online auction system. A simplified smart phone-friendly version of the website will also be launched:
What better way is there to promote an artists' work than through something that people carry with them, an iPad, an iPhone… ?

Masseria Cicella
Located in the heart of Taranto, Puglia, the cellar Masseria Cicella was founded by the obstinacy of the Brothers Schifone. The production is based on 15 acres of land owned and under management. Much
of the land is planted near to the sea in the triangle most suitable for the Primitivo di Manduria. that is between the towns of Sava, Lizzano and Torricella.
The area is characterized by "Terra Rossa" (red soil), a type of red clay soil produced by the weathering of limestone rich in minerals and iron that give it its characteristic color. Compared to most clay soils, terra rossa has surprisingly good drainage characteristics. This makes it a popular soil type for wine production.
The vineyards are characterized by "Alberello" tree non-irrigated and an average age of 30 years with a peak of 50/60 years in the reserves.

Blast Away the Pounds - Indoor WalkDenise Austin

Show oldest reviews first
On the whole, I like this DVD. I used to exercise every day using Gilads DVDs for yrs and am now just starting to get back into shape after 3-4 of yrs of slacking off. All I am looking for right now is a few gentle routines that make me want to get up and get moving, so this did fit the bill. All of the moves in all 3 sections are very easy for me, but that's a good thing when you are just trying to get motivated. I don't do the Power Walk and Tone section because I believe that upper body toning with hand wts should be done while standing still. The steps in that section are less strenuous than the Fat Blast Interval Walk, so I say why bother to do it. You might as well repeat the Fat Blast section if you don't have any other fitness DVDs to mix this up with.
What I like most about this DVD is Denise Austin's "Stepford Wives" personality. Maybe it says more about my sense of humor , but I feel like I'm I'm watching a "Saturday Night Live" skit with Sherry Oteri as instructor. The other thing that makes me want to get up and turn this on is the beautiful use of color in the studio, both the set and the outfits worn by the group. The music is very subtle, but ok for me. It seems to blend well with Denise Austin's soothing way of instructing. I borrowed this DVD from the library for 3 wks and am thinking of buying it. I had never seen Denise before, so I'm also previewing her more intense workouts. I don't know if I'll like them better than this though. It has a unique quality all of it's own.
Instructor Comments:
Denise has a gentle soothing way of coaching that I liked very much. It's a bit comical, but that's what I loved about it.
This dvd has three 15 minute walking workouts on it. You can mix and match and customize your workout-the dvd is programable. This w/o is beginner/ low intermediate. It has more variety than a typical walking workout but still very basic moves: march in place, walk forward and back, knee ups, kicks,
The set is very nice-tile floor with a yellowish wall and an outdoor mountain setting in the background. Denise works out with 4 different female background exercisers. One looks like she is doing slightly more moderate moves, but Denise doesnt point her out as a modifier.
The first section is "basic walk" and it is the easiest of the bunch. You will see your typical walking w/o moves in this section.
The second is "Interval Walk" where Denise adds in some power bursts to walking moves to get your heart rate up.
The third section is "Walk & Tone" and you use light dumbbells to get your heartrate up even more. The dumbbells she uses are so light and you dont do many reps so IMO you are not really getting a toning benefit from the dumbbells but it will get your heartrate up more than w/out them.
I like to use the segments as add-ons to tougher cardio or as a warmup or cooldown to other w/o's. Denise is not too perky or over the top but she is Denise. Her cueing is so-so (as always) but the moves are so simple it would be tough to get lost.
I did all 3 walking miles and they are solid beginner-intermediate level walking. More variety of moves than your typical Leslie Sansone videos. I added more impact to the moves and used heavier weight so I would say this video gave me a solid intermediate intensity. BTW, the Easy Walk segment is not solely a beginner walk but more beginner/low intermediate; I'd say it is similar to a 2 mile Leslie Sansone walk in terms of intensity; not bad at all! I disagree with the other posts that say she has very bad cueing. Someone mentioned she had very bad cueing in the Interval Walk segment. I think it's an exaggeration. Actually, her cueing is a lot better here and I only noticed very few missteps (a feat considering she's done worse in the past!)I am a solid intermediate/high intermediate/low advanced exerciser. This walking video is for days that I don't want to do a lot of high impact (which I love)but still want at least intermediate level intensity. Cons: The low level of music, I can hardly hear it. It's okay since the music is not great anyway. She also does a couple of seconds of stretching while still marching on each mile.
Instructor Comments:
More mellowed Denise. Better cueing compared to her other workout - with a few missteps (which is not surprising since this is just walking!)
The specifics have been given of this DVD already. I will just give my comments.
This workout is not as good as "Ultimate Fat Burner", "Personal Training System". The cueing is the worst ever of her workouts. We all know her cuing has never been her best feature. However I know she is capable of cuing to some extent. Of the above workouts I've listed, I enjoy "Ultimate Fat Burner" the most. She can cue.
The "Easy Walk Mile" & the "Power Walk Tone" are the better of the three. The "Interval Walk" has the worst cueing and you don't even know it is an interval walk. There is nothing interval about it.
The 10 minute stretch segment is done on a chair. It is not as relaxing or good as her 10 minute stretch segment in "PTS".
You'd be better off buying Madeleine Lewis "Get Moving" or any Leslie from her Power Series & 4 Mile Super Challenge.
True beginners will have bad cueing to deal with. Other exercisers who might do this on their light workout days will be frustrated and annoyed. Not just about the cuing issue but the fact that what is supposed to be a workout is not. And the interval workout is nothing more than moving in place to non-existent music. I say this because in this whole workout you can barely hear any music so their will be no beats to follow.
Also the clip you can see on Collage Video is deceiving in that you can hear music. Once you buy this workout that is another story.
If all of this is not bad enough. You will have wasted your exercise time. Because this workout will not keep you in any zone other than the couch potato zone.
I am furious with myself for reading threads on how this was a good change from a Leslie workout or any light day walking workout. Because that is what led me to buy this when I saw it at Walmart. I did this workout twice just to be sure that I was not mistaken as to its workout horridity. Both of those times were excruciating for me.
This will be sold on ebay immediately. I have learned my lesson to not be misled by these simpleton, horrific workouts. Besides how many light workouts does a girl really need for those sick days or sore muscle days anyway? I don't need all of these simplistic workouts that are less than beginner level at best.
Now I have said my peace on this matter. I will speak of it no more.
Instructor Comments:
She is still a bubbly personality. Always the coach.
I have been exercising to videos for 20+ years but this is my first Denise Austin video/dvd. I used to catch her show on Lifetime and didn't think that her personality was a good fit for me. I bought this because I have been looking to add rebounder friendly videos to my collection. This dvd has three 15 minute walking segments and a stretch segment. I did the whole dvd on the rebounder.
Pros: It's low impact and has a greater variety of moves than Lesley Sansone walking videos. I was able to get a moderately intense workout using the rebounder. I substituted running in place for some of the walking. Dvd is nicely designed and chaptered so that you could easily use 1 or 2 segments. Denise is more subdued than I expected her to be. The stretch at the end was nice.
Cons: Music isn't great. Denise has trouble staying on the beat and at times is on a different foot than her backgrounders. I was really amazed that her backgrounders could stay with her because her cuing wasn't very good.
Overall grade: C+. I stick to low impact these days and this gives me another option. The variety of moves makes it more fun on the rebounder than Lesley's videos are for me. Not sure if I would buy it if it cost more than I paid ($8 or $9 at BJs).
Instructor Comments:
If you like walking workouts and would like a workout that is a step above Leslie Sansone's walking videos, this may be the workout for you. I'm an advanced exerciser and Blast Away the Fat Indoor Walk is excellent for those days when I don't want to go full blast or think about complex moves. It also fits into my collection perfectly when I'm looking for a cardio workout to add to my strength training days.
This workout is divided into three, 15 minute walking sections. Section one is "Easy Walk." This section contains simple moves such as marching in place, knees up, stepping side to side, and marching back and forth.
Section two "Interval Walk" is a little more intense. It contains brief thirty second intervals of jogging in place, kicks, jumping, skipping, and rapid knees up.
Section three I think is called "Tone and Walk." It consists of walking and toning moves with the use of light weights.
I did break a sweat in sections two and three and section three even worked my upper body a little. While Denise's cuing is not the best, the moves are easy enough that you can still follow along. You also don't need a whole lot of room to do this workout.
A nice ten minute stretch section is added at the end. I can see myself using the stretch section just by itself. You stretch with the use of a chair and the exercises felt great.
This dvd is chaptered so you can program the sections in any order. The music is so-so. Actually it is pretty unmemorable so I can't comment about it so much.
All in all, I believe this workout is well worth the money. I got mine for $14.99 at Borders but I know others have gotten theirs at Target for as little as $9.99. Blast Away The Fat Indoor Walk is a keeper for me.
Instructor Comments:
Denise is sometimes off beat and she doesn't cue that well but her personality and enthusiasm are genuine in this workout and she is extremely supportive and encouraging.
This video has set with two arches in the back with views of the desert showing through them. The room is Southwesty looking with a redish tile floor and light terra cotta colored walls with wood on the lower 1/3 of the wall.
There are 4 background exercisers that stay throughout the workout. They appear in be in their 30s+.
The Easy walk includes "sidewalk" which is really a double side step with arms, knee lifts andleg lifts.
Fatburning Mile is a little more intense with side steps with kicks (I liked those),kneelifts, walking with punches and side taps.
In the Power Walk and Tone Denise uses weights. She gives a 1-3 lb recommendation. I found the music annoying. I also didn't like the hold the weights at your side with the elbows sticking out. It was uncomfortable. She covers triceps, biceps, back rowing, and overhead presses.
The stretch part has Denise alone. She uses a chair and gives no modification for not using a chair. A personal pet peeve is that if I need a chair, it should be noted on the package.
I think this video works the thighs more than Leslie tends to. I'll probably use it a few times to put the moves in my mind so that I can add them into my Leslies and give this to someone. It is a beginner level other than the fact that Denise can't cue so one is behind while doing it and working to figure out what she's doing.
Instructor Comments:
Denise doesn't tell you what is coming up very well. She's her usual perky self and usual lack of cuing well self.
It is made up of 4 segments:
Easy Walk - 15 min = 1 mile of lite walking in place with some added steps
Fat Blasting Interval Walk - 15 min = 1 mile of walking at a more brisk pace with frequent "intervals" thrown in to get the HR up
Power Walk and Tone - 15 min = 1 mile of walking in place with lite upper body moves throughout
Stretch - 10 min of total body stretching
I have kind of mixed feelings about it.
The good: perfect for "sparks". Each 15 min segment is its own, with a kind of mini warmup and cooldown. Nothing official but you can tell the pace is gradually picking up and then gradually slowing down. Plus, you can pick the 15 min segment you're in the mood for. I did all 3 plus stretch so it's a nice easy 55 min workout. The stretch is a fabulous one after any workout but especially after an outdoor brisk walk. She really gets the legs, hips and back stretched well. Also, the choreo is extremely simple but yet not as dull as Leslie. Much, much more variety. I kept thinking something like this would have been perfect for me when I was a beginner.
The bad: Well, it is Denise Austin. Lord help her, she cannot stop that idle drivel: "Burn that butter!" "no bra overhang" "You can do it. You are worth it." Mind you, it's motivating but it gets old after say, 2 minutes. Her chit chat is entirely different that Leslie's and to me, much more annoying. She doesn't talk to you like a normal instructor. It's all coaching, all the time. The 4 background exercisers are smily drones most of the time. The cueing is typical Denise-not so great. But still, her background exercisers could stay with her so that means it wasn't so bad. Usually, they're lost too in her videos. That woman cannot keep a beat or rhythm to save her life. Speaking of which, the music was non-existant. Just background filler so to me the workout seemed much more dull and draggy than a Leslie video.
In a nutshell: I couldn't help but constantly compare it to Leslie. In some ways, it was much better and Leslie could take some lessons. Each 15 min segment was chaptered and had a theme, which I liked. Also there was such variety in the moves without it being at all complicated. However the inane chatter and cruddy music made it drag some. So, in small doses, like 15 min in the morning or evening, I think it would be perfect. Plus, as I said earlier, that stretch was fantastic.
I think I'll keep it.

Increase Your Virtual Memory
Increase Memory Virtually With These Tips
Your computer might be running slow after using it for several months. Increasing your virtual memory on your computer can give a boost to its performance. When the physical RAM on your computer fills up, Windows will move data to what is called page file. This file is a kind of virtual memory. Imagine your computer has 2 GB RAM and you have several applications running that needs 2.5 GB RAM. Windows uses the 2 GB RAM, then the rest of the data is moved to page fil on the hard disk. Writing to physical RAM does not take as long as writing to disk, making performance of your computer degrade when virtual memory is used.
Normally, Windows manages the size of paging file automatically. However, settings for this can be changed to help your computer run more smoothly. By default, the partition that Windows uses is the one that contains the operating system. The recommendation is to set the page file at 1.5 times to the RAM amount you have in your computer.
Changing the Virtual Memory Settings
Open up the control panel and select System. Now select the tab named Advanced. One option under this tab is, Performance. In this setting select Settings. Once in this box, select Advanced again. Underneath the heading, Virtual memory, click Change.
You will now have a dialog box with the name Virtual Memory. If your OS is 7 or higher, the setting Automatically manage paging file size for all drives, is checked already for you. If using a solid state drive that has a Core i3, 5, or 7 processor while running on Windows 8, you will most likely not have to change the stetting due to no huge speed difference will be seen. If not running this, uncheck the box. Next, check the option Custom Size. The initial and maximum sizes should be set according to what the recommendation is.
If you are not sure of how much RAM your computer has, you can check by going into your Control Panel. Next, select System. The amount of RAM you have is stated near the bottom right of the page.
A Second Option
In some situations, if there is more than one hard drive in the computer the page file can be moved to a different drive. Assume one of the hard drives has your operating system and data installed on it and the other has data that is not used often. Moving the paging file to the drive that has only the data can improve your computers performance.
Doing either option will increase performance of your computer. However, if you notice that your page file get used often, try increasing your computers physical RAM.

Access and Recover Office Files
Tips to Access and Recover Office Files that are Corrupt
Everybody that has used Microsoft Office knows that data corruption can happen to anybody. If one of your files in Office is corrupt, there are ways to save it. Sometimes, Office will repair the corrupt file by itself with an automatic repair feature built into the program. When this does not happen there are other ways to recover it.
Open and Repair the Data
When Office fails to repair the file automatically, there is a way for you to ensure the program is trying to repair the data. Open the Office program that has the corrupt file and go to File, then Open. Find the file you want repaired, and select it. Using the dropdown menu, select Open and Repair. With minor corruptions, this method is usually successful.
AutoRecover When Office Shuts Down Unexpectedly
There are times that Office shots down unexpectedly on us, such as from a power outage or a system reboot that is forced. When this happens, it may cause your data to be corrupt. However, with a feature Office has called AutoRecover your data might be recovered. When Office is loaded back up there should be an option that offers you the recovered data. If this does not happen there is a way for you to do it manually.
Launch the Office program that has the corrupt data and select, file. Next, select recent. Recover Unsaved Documents is what needs to be selected next. The wording may be different depending on what program in Office you are using. After making that selection, you will be brought to a folder where the automatic backups are created. Try each one, checking if it contains what you are looking for. If you find it, save the data to a different location.
Previous Version Tab
Your system might have stored a backup of the data, depending on what the settings of your system are. Right click on the Office file, selecting Properties then Previous Versions. You will then be shown a list of previous versions, if any exist. Open each one, checking each to see if there is any with all your data and is not corrupted. If you have found one, select Restore.
Check Temporary Files
You want to do a search of your system by loading your search options, and type *.tmp. All files that end with the extension, temporary file will be found. If any results are found, save them to a different location. Names of the files will most likely not help, the size might be able to though. Load them into your Office program to check if this is your data.
If still unable to find the data, you may want to try a third party program and hope for results.
This can be something that is preventable if you back up your files when maintenance is required on your computer. By doing this, you'll always have copies of important information on your computer.
Protect Your Windows Data
Ways to Protect and Hide Your Data When Using Windows
The majority of people have person information stored on their computer, making them want to protect it from snooping eyes. This may be from possible hackers, or family members. There are different methods to accomplish this, all with different levels of security. You might want to just hide your data from appearing on your system, or you might want to have passwords and encryption employed.
Ways to Hide Your Data
Individual folders and files can be hidden with an inbuilt method that is in Windows. First, you need to be sure files you want marked hidden appear that way. Start Windows Explorer and make your way to organize, then Folder and search options, now select the tab that says View. Select, Don't show hidden files, folder, or drives underneath where it says Hidden files and Folders. Now click OK.
Now it is time to hide the data you want hidden. Right click on the file or folder, click Properties and on the tab that says General, tick Hidden. Select Advanced to have extra protection. Where you see the archiving options, untick it. When doing a Windows search, this file or folder will not appear.
If you want the hidden data to show, reverse the steps you just completed. As you can see, this method is not greatly secured. This is due the fact, people that are tech savvy will know how to do the same process you did to uncover the files. However, people that are less savvy will be discouraged from finding the data that is hidden.
Hide Your Entire Drive
The entire drive can be hidden from people by going a step further. Search your system for, disk management. Select it when found, this brings a window up showing all the drives you have, whether external or internal that are connected to the computer. Right click on the drive that you want to hide, select Change Drive Letter and Paths. A new window will open, select the letter of the drive, click Remove then select OK. The drive is not searchable now on the computer.
As with hiding files and folders, copying these steps can rediscover your drive that you hid, making security this way not great either.
Protection with Passwords
Third party software offers the proper protection by password use. Some cost, but there are alternatives that are free available. Check online reviews of any third party software you are considering. Always make sure you're making strong passwords, as well for your protection.
Encrypting the Data
Encryption offers the best protection. Two third party encryption software are AxCrypt and VeraCrypt. These both are easy to use and are free, although they do accept donations.
Security of your data is important. These suggestions should help, and keep in mind you can use a combination for more protection.

Evernote -VS- OneNote
Evernote -VS- OneNote Differences and Similarity
Apps for taking notes are handy and practical in several situations. You can make lists or when a good idea pops into your head, you can write it down just in case you forget. OneNote and Evernote are two software solutions that takes notes and offer features that are useful for everybody needing to keep information on track. Both are offered for free. Both offer features for individual and businesses. We will look at each of these apps to see their comparison.
Some Features of OneNote
OneNote division of pages and notebooks are neat. Many platforms are supported. However, features are inconsistent across various platforms. Few of the features that Evernote lacks, OneNote has an integrated thesaurus and dictionary. Desktop apps give the ability for the user to position text where they want, and draw diagrams. Sections can be assigned a password, individual pages cannot have one. Media content can be added, for instance audio and video recordings. Screenshots, pictures, and scanned images taken from Facebook, OneDrive, the hard drive, and Flickr can be added.
Main advantage for the OneNote app is its system, Optical Character recognition (OCR). OneNote identifies automatically imported pictures, screenshots, and scanned images. On the image that is in the note, right click and copy its text, now paste wherever you want. Paragraphs and text from documents are extracted easily.
Notes can be shared through e-mail with the desktop version, web version can be shared by e-mail and URL. Extracting text is done well with documents or scanned book, but not well with websites. Screenshots can be captured but not the text directly. Web and desktop versions are basically the same, with some features missing from the web app.
OneNote is a practical solution with a nice selection of features.
Some Features of Evernote
Features across various platforms are consistent and simple. Third party support for Evernote is wider than OneNote. Features for web clipping are excellent. You can have several notebooks for storing separate sections of images, audio, and notes. Video files can be stored but there is not an option for capturing video notes.
Plugins for browsers, named Evernote Clearly and Evernote Web Clipper allows you to organize and save copies of webpages. This is handy for researching online, storing updates and conversations from e-mails and social media, and capturing articles.
Desktop version of Evernote has a section displaying a list of what is in selected folders. You create and see your content on the right. Evernote does not offer as organization of sections or pages as clear as OneNote. Web version is similar but cleaner.
Main advantage is with its mobile app, being able to capture audio and combine with other notes.
Evernote is a good solution for notes with more consistency over platforms than OneNote. Evernote is better for general notes, and for better video features, consider OneNote.
Recover Microsoft Account on PC
Recovering Hacked Microsoft Account and Prevention
You need to have a Microsoft account to sign into different services, such as Skype, OneDrive, and Office 365. Microsoft account is needed to sign in to Windows 8.1, if you set it up that way. If you want to download apps from the Windows store, you need a Microsoft account. If somebody has compromised your account you want it back and prevent it from happening again.
Compromised Account
If you believe that somebody has compromised your Microsoft account, change your password as soon as possible. Sign into the account, if still able to. Under Security & privacy, select change password. Follow all the steps.
If you are unable to log into your Microsoft account with your usual password, the hacker most likely changed the password. This is the type of hack that occurs most often. To get your account back, go to account.live.com. Now select, can't access your account. This brings you to a page to reset the password. Now, enter the e-mail address for the Microsoft account you are locked out of. Then enter the security characters, and hit next.
There is more than one way to reset your password, depending on what security information you added to the account. One option, if you provided another e-mail address to your Microsoft account, a link can be sent to that address. Enter it, then select next. The e-mail you entered will have a message from Microsoft, telling you what to do next.
Another option, if you gave a phone number, a code can be texted to that number or Microsoft can call you with an automated message. Enter the code received on your phone, click submit. With either method you chose, you need to enter a new password. Be sure the password selected is strong. Now select, next. Sign into your account, using the new password.
If the contact information Microsoft has is outdated, or there was none supplied. On the screen to reset password, select, I can't Use any of these Options. Enter your account that is blocked, give an alternate e-mail that Microsoft can contact you with. You need to answer a few questions about your account. Include as much information as possible. Microsoft will send instructions to the alternate e-mail, how to recover your account.
Future Prevention
Help avoid this from happening again in the future. Use a strong password. Something that is used only for your Microsoft account. Enable two-step verification, making anybody signing into your account provide a code. This is sent to you by text message, or an app on your cell phone. You can have security alerts sent to your phone, if somebody tries to take over your account. After entering two-step verification once, mark that device as trusted and you will not have to enter it every time.
Ready for a Windows Upgrade?
Is Your Computer Ready for Windows 10 Upgrade?
Windows 10 release is set for July, now is the time to make sure your system can upgrade. Most likely, if you already run Windows 7 or 8 you will be able to upgrade. Of course, if your system does not run these as smooth and fast as you like, Windows 10 will not either. There are details available so you can be sure.
Windows 10 Hardware Requirements
Official hardware requirements for Windows 10 has not been confirmed yet. However, system requirements for Windows 10 preview states, if you are able to run Windows 8.1, you will be good to go. The installer for Windows 10 checks to make sure your system is suitable, before installing the OS, as well. You need to have internet and a Microsoft account for installation. Requirements for Technical Preview of Windows 10 are as follows:
- Processor needs to be at least 1 gigahertz (GHz)
- RAM for 32-bit at least 1 gigabyte (GB) or for 64-bit 2 GB
- At least 16 GB of hard disk space needs to be free
- Graphic cards has to be a graphic device with Microsoft DirectX 9 with WINDOWS Display Driver Model (WDDM)
Use a display with a minimum resolution of 1024×768, when using Windows apps to receive better results.
Windows Compatibility Center
Even though at this time, the compatibility center is for upgrades for Windows 8.1, it should work for 10, also. This is because Microsoft said, if your system is fine with 8.1 it will be for Windows 10. Check to make sure all of your hardware (printers, USB devices, mouse, etc.) is connected to the computer, before running the compatibility check. This will show if your devices are compatible.
Important Information You Need to Know
For computers that run Windows 7 or 8.1 at the time of Windows 10 release, updating should be able to be done for free through Windows update. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Upgrading to Windows 10 for free, has to be done within the twelve months after final release.
- You should not have any issues if you have a retail version of Windows. Meaning, it is not a version preinstalled on a computer.
- If you have the OEM version, there should not be any problems, providing it is the original computer it was installed on.
- If you are using Windows Vista or XP and have hardware that is compatible, you can upgrade. This will be a clean install.
- Enterprise editions will not be able to get the free upgrade.
- Devices with Windows RT, are not eligible for the new OS. Some features may be added in the future.
You want to make sure everything with your system is compatible, even with a free upgrade. This will save time and money.

Who did you connect with?
Connected with schools across Ireland and Northern Ireland in the nationwide campaign.
Connected with Cormac McArt in Belfast who travelled to our school with his exhibition on homelessness.
Connecting with those on the ground in India as we begin to plan our Immersion project which we will now do in partnership with CBS Carlow.
Connected with schools in England at the European EREBB conferences.
Schools nationwide joined us in our campaign to eradicate homelessness. There was huge awareness raising events held beginning in our school and spreading out across Ireland. The campaign grew and many of the Edmund Rice schools across Ireland became involved and a petition was signed by thousands across the schools. This will be brought to the Irish Government in the coming months.
We also connected with another CBS school (Carlow) at the EREBB conference and we are currently planning a joint immersion to India.
We have also connected with Tom Murray and hope to launch the Edmund Rice ambassadors program in our school.
Benefits for those involved
The new connections have been hugely beneficial to all in the school. The sense of being part of a dynamic, forward thinking and justice based organisation is very evident.
The possibility of linking globally with others in the network is very exciting and the power that can be harnessed being part of EREBB could be seen through the homelessness campaign.
Working together can truly make a real difference. We can advocate for justice as one voice and be very effective. This really brings enthusiasm to the whole school.

Most of us are interested in taking care of our skin. After all, it is the first thing that most people notice when they see us and it is the largest organ of the human body. The problem is, most people don't truly understand how to take care of their skin in a natural way. The following all-natural skincare routine, however, can point you in the right direction.
First of all, you need to forget about many of the commercial products that are typically used for taking care of the skin. Most of them have harmful chemicals that can easily be identified on the label and they may even have hidden chemicals that are not listed. Some of those chemicals are carcinogens and others have been shown to be harmful to the human body in many other ways. It is better if you use an all-natural approach and leave the commercial products behind.
There are also a number of different natural products available that can truly help to clean the skin and continue to keep it healthy. They include some oils, such as tea tree and coconut oil. These are often used as the base for homemade skin care products. Apple cider vinegar is also used as a natural product, both on the outside of the body and even on the inside.
One of the things that you may want to do is exfoliate and this is possible when you use sea salt. Sea salt has natural exfoliating capabilities and you might be surprised with exactly what it is able to do for your skin.
Aloe vera is also something that can be used directly on the skin to help heal, soothe and smooth it. If you do use aloe vera, make sure that you get a natural product that is not intermingled with chemicals.
This is the basis for a natural skincare routine, one that can help keep your skin healthy and beautiful.

Dawn Ades con Undercover Surrealism: Georges Bataille and Documents (Mit Press)
Reseña del editor In the Paris art world of the 1920s, Georges Bataille and his journal DOCUMENTS represented a dissident branch of surrealism. Bataille--poet, philosopher, writer, and self-styled ""enemy within"" surrealism--used DOCUMENTS to put art into violent confrontation with popular culture, ethnography, film, and archaeology. Undercover Surrealism, taking the visual richness of DOCUMENTS as its starting point, recovers the explosive and vital intellectual context of works by Picasso, Dali, Miro, Giacometti, and others in 1920s Paris. Featuring 180 color images and translations of original texts from DOCUMENTS accompanied by essays and shorter descriptive texts, Undercover Surrealism recreates and recontextualizes Bataille's still unsettling approach to culture. Putting Picasso's Three Dancers back into its original context of sex, sacrifice, and violence, for example, then juxtaposing it with images of gang wars, tribal masks, voodoo ritual, Hollywood musicals, and jazz, makes the urgency and excitement of Bataille's radical ideas startlingly vivid to a twenty-first-century reader.Copublished by Hayward Gallery Publishing, London Biografía del autor Dawn Ades is the author of a number of books on dada, surrealism, and related topics, including Dada and Surrealism Reviewed, Photomontage, and Salvador Dali. She is Director of the Arts and Humanities Research Board Centre for the Study of Surrealism and its Legacies at the University of Essex. Simon Baker is Lecturer in Art History at The University of Nottingham and a member of the editorial group of the Oxford Art Journal.

Each Code.org district from its 2014 and 2015 cohorts has the language below included in their agreement with Code.org.
Specific district partnership documents are managed by each individual district, who may decide the process for providing public access to those documents.
As stated in our privacy policy, we're deeply committed to creating a safe and secure environment for our students and teachers. We take the protection of this information seriously.
The appendix below will be referenced from the main body of the contract between Code.org and school districts using the following sentence. Other than the Appendix B, this sentence will be the only language in the contract regarding evaluation or student data. An "Entity" is a school district.
"EVALUATION -- The Entity agrees to Code.org's Evaluation, Assessment and Data Security requirements listed in Appendix B."
Appendix B -- Evaluation and Data Security
I. Evaluation Program
Code.org assists and supports participating Entities in implementing the Code.org Program. Code.org continually researches and evaluates the effectiveness of the Code.org Program in order to update instructional, curricular and assessment materials and otherwise improve the instruction that participating Entities provide to students. These efforts include the development and validation of assessments, surveys and/or other measurement tools during an Entity's participation in the Code.org Program.
Code.org, through its designated representative(s) for evaluation, hereafter referred to as "Evaluator", will provide, and the Entity will participate in, the Code.org systematic assessment and evaluation process. The Evaluator will be a neutral third party. The Entity will assist Code.org and Evaluator in working through the Entity's standard procedures for obtaining access to data for the purposes of evaluation as detailed below. The Entity may provide the Evaluator with individual student achievement and assessment data and limited demographic data (as detailed below). The Entity may facilitate student participation in survey and interview data collection conducted by the Evaluator. Entity will not provide Code.org any individual student achievement or demographic data, but will provide Code.org with classroom and school average scores on Code.org assessments. Individual student data given to the Evaluator by the Entity shall be de-identified and contain a unique de-identified student number that cannot be used to re-identify the student (for example, a one-way mapped version of the Entity student ID). This de-identified student data will be used solely for the purpose of analyzing student performance over time and contain no personally identifiable student information.
II. Assessments and Examinations
For each of the High School courses (Exploring Computer Science and Computer Science Principles), Entity must administer the most current version of the unit and end-of-course assessments provided by Code.org to its students.
Entity must administer the assessments in accordance with guidelines specified by Code.org, and any deviation from those guidelines must be documented by Entity and approved by Code.org.
III. Evaluation Scope
The evaluation will be used to improve the Code.org program (curriculum and implementation) and seeks to answer questions such as the following:
The Entity may provide the Evaluator de-identified individual student data (with a unique de-identified student number for the purposes of analyzing student performance over time):
The Entity will provide the Evaluator other support necessary for carrying out the evaluation, including facilitating parent/guardian permission, providing teacher registration and/or student rostering/registration information.
The Evaluator may request longitudinal de-identified student achievement data for the current year, the preceding two (2) years until the end of a student's participation in the program.
IV. Data Security
Code.org protects data and other records in keeping with the letter and spirit of applicable federal, state and local law.
Code.org will not receive any individual student achievement or demographic data from Entity or from the Evaluator. However, through Code.org's tutorial platform, Code.org may collect student data from students enrolled in courses within and outside of the Entity. This may include data such as student logins as well as student progress and achievement on online tutorials within Code.org's tutorial platform. Students participating through Code.org's tutorial platform can use accounts set up by the Entity or by their teachers, and will be allowed (but not required) to provide email addresses. Code.org has a Privacy Policy which governs Code.org's use, sharing and collection of data that Code.org has access to or collects through its programs, including its online tutorial platform. The Privacy Policy can be found at: http://code.org/privacy.
Code.org may receive other, non-student information, from the Entity from time to time. Code.org implements reasonable safeguards and precautions to secure data and protect against unauthorized access to its systems and data, and will only share information that it collects or receives, either from the Entity or from its other activities, in accordance to Code.org's Privacy Policy and in accordance with the District Agreement, to which this Appendix is attached.
Code.org will require the Evaluator to use and maintain any data given to the Evaluator by the Entity for the purposes set forth above and only in accordance with reasonable privacy/security measures, proper professional practices, student confidentiality and applicable federal, state and local laws, including the Family Educational Records and Privacy Act ("FERPA"). The Evaluator will be prohibited from using or disclosing the student data for any commercial purpose. The Evaluator is the only party, besides the Entity, that shall have access to the de-identified student data given to the Evaluator by the Entity.
The Entity will be responsible, where applicable, for implementing annual notifications, obtaining any necessary student, parent or guardian consents, record-keeping and other such privacy requirements relating to these services.
Side note: in the case of Chicago Public Schools, the Code.org contract specifies additional clauses with respect to student data, but the actual implementation is no different than the above. More info

Good Meal Hunting
Second CRM has helped Good Meal Hunting automate their entire e-commerce business, right from product management, order management to billing & payments and even logitics.
Location: Philipines
Industry: Startups
Good Meal Hunting is a technology company set up with the purpose of helping home cooks manage their food business out of the comfort of their own homes as well as to serve consumers freshly made meals by delivering directly to them.
Good Meal Hunting handles all the logistical and technical aspects of running a food business, from providing food containers to coordinating with delivery services in order to let their kitchen merchants focus on the most important part, the food itself. Consumers could log in to Good Meal Hunting platform, choose the dishes and the quantity, pay online and the food would be sent to their doorstep.
We are glad that we decided to work with Second CRM. They are very practical and methodical in their approach and the team is always there for you.Lance Uriel
The Challenges
Being an e-commerce platform that has multiple touch points that they have to manage, Good Meal Hunting had a number of pain points that needed to be immediately addressed before they could even think of scaling up. Some of their pain points were as follows.
- The biggest challenge that the team faced was the lack of automation. The team had huge dreams of taking this big but then, the mere fact that they had recently started not too long ago kept coming in their way. Manpower was limited, and they needed as much automation as possible to run their business with minimal human intervention.
- Managing an e-commerce business requires huge effort and can be quite challenging. There are a multitude of things that needs to be attended to right from marketing, managing their kitchen merchants, product cataloging, pricing, sales, customer support, logistics etc. For Good Meal Hunting, it was impossible to manage all of these without having a system in place.
The Solutions
Upon being awarded the project, the first thing that the Second CRM team did was to put up a clear blueprint in place. This was crucial as it outlined all the modules and the spiral of workflows that are associated with each and every module. Once this was agreed upon, then the project roll out commenced.
- Being the core of the system, Second CRM's Accounts & Contacts module was implemented before anything else. Now, they could have their entire database of customers and kitchen merchants in a single location that could be accessed from anywhere. Having done this, they could start capturing all interactions that they have with their customers which could be retrieved at any time in the future for reporting purposes. As an extension to this, Second CRM went on to implement social media plug-ins. Now, not only was the direct interaction captured, Good Meal Hunting was able to collate information from social media as well.
- Having done the social media integration, Second CRM was now able to give valuable insight that the team previously never had. Information such as customer demographics, behavior, buying patterns and a whole lot of other information that could be put to good use by their marketing team. The next module that was implemented would be Second CRM's Marketing module. This enabled them with a host of tools that they could use to run multiple marketing campaigns and take their brand awareness to the next level. Instead of running the same campaign across the board, targeted and effective marketing campaigns can now be executed. This invariably increases the success of each marketing campaign since the content delivered is relevant and of interest to the recipient.
- As the next step, Second CRM implemented a stack of e-commerce modules which takes care of all the tedious things in a systematic manner. These include Products Management module which includes adding new products, modifying existing products, pricing management, discounts etc.; Order Management module which includes sales orders, payment tracking, shopping cart workflows, order statuses etc.; and Logistics Management module which takes care of the entire logistical part right up to order delivery. This takes a huge burden off their shoulders as this core backend engine would be the driving force of operations. Having automated this huge component of their business, the team could now lay back and concentrate their efforts on Marketing which is the building blocks of their future.
- Having put all those in place, Second CRM now concentrated on addressing another important aspect of their business, which is Customer Support. We then implemented our Customer Support module and had it integrated to their Call Centre System. Now, when a customer calls in, the caller is automatically identified, all calls are tracked, and any issues are recorded and escalated using Second CRM.
- To improve the overall customer experience and to collect feedback, Second CRM's Customer Survey module was also implemented. Now, the team could build simple to complex surveys and automatically send them out to their customers for feedback. This could be either something that is done on a periodic basis or even one that is triggered by a specific event.
- As the final piece in this implementation, Second CRM implemented our Reporting module that would enable the customer to have real time reports in the format of their choice. This covers detailed tabular reports as well as graphical dashboards that is unique to each user.
This engagement with Second CRM has brought about a vast positive change in the way the operations were being run at Good Meal Hunting. The team were now empowered with technology, overall productivity improved tremendously, and an all rounded satisfaction had been achieved.

If you're into software development you've probably heard about Behavior-driven development. Recently I had a discussion whether or not business people think in this way. Fortunately, I was involved in a business workshop, so I could make some observations.
The way mentioned earlier is the only language business uses to define and discuss aspects of their actions. They are some abbreviations like:
Once we reach 1000 participants, we assign them rooms
Which can be easily translated into
- Given 999 participants registered
- When a participant registered
- Then the rooms are allocated
This can be easily read by business as by developers.
If you can model your solutions towards this kind of testing, which not necessarily must be performed with tools for BDD but can be easily done by introducing Event Sourcing and structuring your tests like in Lokad CQRS examples then you can finally start to discuss business ideas with business instead of describing how your db is updated. And this, for sure makes the difference.

Every phase of the onboarding process with a new employee is important, from before they begin their job, through their first month, to the successful completion of their first year.
Although most organizations do have an effective onboarding program for new hires, the practise is equally as wide-spread when it comes to current employees who are promoted to an managerial position nor external managerial new hires. It´s important to realize that regardless of an individuals previous position – internal or external – proper onboarding lowers the costs of job training and reduces stress for other co-workers and managers.
In today´s video we´re giving you tips to give your new manager´s journey within your organization a good start.
