Thanks to Silicon Valley innovations, the gig economy is in full swing. On-demand services from Uber to Instacart to Caviar tap an army of local contract workers to spread their services quickly, without the expense of a full-time employee workforce.
Almost one-third of U.S. workers earn some form of income through independent work and gig opportunities versus working as a traditional employee.
This includes the gig workers—who often contract for several local delivery services—and creative freelancers like writers, graphic designers, and video producers.
While there's been significant focus on the burden of finding health insurance for the millions of "independent workers" in the U.S., that's not the only financial challenge for freelance workers.
Unlike full-time workers, freelancers typically aren't entitled to paid sick days or vacation time. And they're responsible for paying taxes on their earnings each quarter, regardless of what unexpected expenses crop up.
Being unexpectedly unable to work for a few weeks can deal a serious blow to a freelancer's budget.
Disability insurance can help decrease the burden of dealing with an unanticipated injury or illness. Freelancers can purchase coverage through a professional association or financial advisor.
Disability Insurance through Professional Associations
A primary source of disability insurance for freelancers is industry and trade associations. They often offer disability insurance and other insurance options as a benefit to their members.
If you are not a member of an association that provides it, check out the Freelancers Union. In addition to their lobbying on behalf of freelancers, they provide access to many of the benefits employees receive from their corporate employers. They offer two tiers of disability insurance coverage for the cost of a fancy latte per week.
The coverage begins 30 or 90 days after you become disabled depending upon which option you choose. So although it doesn't negate the need for an emergency fund, it's still a valuable tool for securing your income when you're unable to work for an extended period of time.
To make the right purchase decision, you must know your monthly minimum cost of living. This, combined with your total insured earnings, will determine the amount of coverage you can purchase.
Depending on your other sources of income, you may choose not to have maximum coverage. However, if freelancing is your primary income, you may wish to pay a higher premium for greater security.
To make a more informed choice, you should be aware of disability risk factors. If you are in a higher disability risk category, you might want to seek a higher level of coverage.
Disability Insurance through Financial Advisors
Another option for purchasing disability insurance is through a financial services company.
Many financial advisors have a disability insurance offering.
Working with an investment advisor to select disability insurance is a good option for freelancers who have more complex finances.
A major benefit to purchasing through an advisor is their knowledge of your overall financial situation. Your advisor can take your investment goals and portfolio into account when constructing your proposal.
Depending upon your investments, and how close you are to retirement, your advisor may propose different coverage options. Those options may change over time, as your financial situation changes.
As a freelancer, you're operating without a safety net. Your success—and your ability to pay your bills—relies solely on you. Disability insurance can provide freelancers peace of mind and income protection for a few dollars per week.

The text of the notification
According to the report published on September 4 in the , there's no nutritional or safety differences between organic and conventional foods.
Researchers at Stanford University Medical Center in California reviewed more than 200 studies that compared either the health of people who ate organic or conventional foods or, more commonly, nutrient and contaminant levels in the foods themselves. The foods included organic and non-organic fruits, vegetables, grains, meat, poultry, eggs and milk.
After analyzing the data, the researchers found little significant difference in health benefits between organic and conventional foods. No consistent differences were seen in the vitamin content of organic products.
The review yielded scant evidence that conventional foods pose greater health risks than organic products. While researchers found that organic produce had a 30 percent lower risk of pesticide contamination than conventional fruits and vegetables, the pesticide levels of all foods generally fell within the allowable safety limits. Additionally, organic chicken and pork appeared to reduce exposure to antibiotic-resistant bacteria, but the clinical significance of this is also unclear.
These findings don't mean you should stop eating organic foods. There are reasons to choose organic over conventional that go beyond health, especially in regard to taste. Organic is the obvious choice if you are concerned by the effect of conventional farming on the environment and animal welfare.
As far as myself, I tend to favor local food, whether it's certified organic or not, because, since it has been picked when it is ripe, it is indeed better-tasting. An additional reason is that since it has not traveled a few days to get to you or been refrigerated for a long time, it has better nutritional value.
Since I do not have an unlimited budget for my groceries, I follow the to prioritize my purchases.
If you don't want to wait around to find out if long-term exposure to pesticide residues does, in fact, increase the risk of health problems, I suggest you do the same 😉

Hi Lovelies!
Wow where have I been? I'm still facing problems with getting my Internet connected at the new place.. so I hope you can bare with me whilst I'm figuring things out. BT are like the most impossible people ever and because I live in the countryside, they are the only real provider that can connect me to the Internet. Everything seems like a little bit of a nightmare at the moment, especially with uni work as I can't get Internet boohoo! but I'm hoping they will get a move on soon so I can get back into blogging and start writing my long list of blog ideas! Moving on from my little ramble haha I'm going to be posting another fantastic brand from my South Wales Gift Guide today, so I hope you enjoy finding out more about what South Wales has to offer! I have actually been using this product for just over two weeks, so hopefully it will show you what a lovely gift the Petals of the Valley Welsh Rosewater would make! I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments section down below and if you would like to get in contact, then don't hesitate to use my social media icons just to the right hand side of my blog :)
About Petal's of the Valley
The Monnow Valley, near Skenfrith, Monmouthshire is home to Petals of the Valley. Denise and Desdemona grow fragrant roses and companion plants, which help to create their beautifully unique Welsh Rosewater. Petals of the Valley use their own pure spring water and highly fragrant Rosa Damascena roses grown on their Monmouthsire based farm. The Organic Welsh Rosewater created by Petals of the Valley contains no preservatives and the roses are steam distilled once, unlike industrially produced rosewater which can be distilled up to 7 times! If that's not enough then the Rosewater from Petals of the Valley's is believed to be first Rosewater in the UK to be approved as a food ingredient, which is pretty impressive! I'm sure you beauty lover's already know how amazing Rosewater is as a beauty product, and is used in many cleanser's, serums, moisturisers, lip balms and more! It's fantastic for skin ranging from sensitive and mature to Young and acne prone, which definitely makes it a little miracle worker!
You might have seen me recently feature the Petals of the Valley Welsh Rosewater in my "Evening Skincare Routine" and it has definitely been a regular feature in my recent skincare regime. I have used Rose products for quite some time now, but this is the first time I have used Rosewater in its purest form and I must admit I'm loving it! I tend to spritz the Petals of the Valley Rosewater over my face just after cleansing or just before bed. I can't even describe how beautiful and natural it smells, which makes it even nicer to use! I also love how it makes my skin feel soothed and relaxed. Rose is well known for not only being moisturizing, but also being a great acne treatment! A few weeks back my skin was getting quite bad with those horrible under the skin type of spots. However, since using this product my skin has started to gain its luminosity back, with no sign of any pesky spots!
Overall, I'm really impressed with the Welsh Rosewater from Petals of the Valley and I can 100% confirm it has become a staple in my evening skincare routine. I love how the gift set is packaged and I honestly think this would make one of the nicest stocking fillers or even a little treat to yourself! Its such a versastile gift and could also work as a great birthday/mother's day treat too. So much thought and hard work has gone into this product and its benefits seem endless. So why not treat a beauty lover (or yourself) to some beautifully natural Welsh Rosewater? FYI this product can also be used as a food ingredient and the Petals of the Valley website is full of useful information on how to get the best out of your Rosewater! I hope you have enjoyed this post lovelies and hopefully I will be back soon with part three of the S.Wales Gift Guide :)

The shop is called DIRT Design Studio, and it's in the former Decorazon gallery space. Owners Sonya and Chris Eudaley, who were living in a rental house at Bishop and Fifth, scooped up the space before it was even listed.
Even though the shop's website is dirtflowers.com, it is more than just a flower shop. Sonya Eudaley, 33, has a degree in set design from Texas Woman's University, and she has 10 years of experience as an event planner and floral designer.
She started her own business in December, planning weddings, parties and other events. She also outfits her clients' homes with cut flowers and plants for parties, holidays and special occasions. And she designs unique invitations.
The shop will make its debut with a party Sept. 2, during First Thursday in the B.A.D.
By the way, this couple has a cute love story.
Sonya and Chris, 34, went to high school together in Haltom City. In high school, Chris dated Sonya's best friend. After graduation, Sonya went to Denton and Chris and his girlfriend both went to Sarah Lawrence College. Sonya moved to Boston after college and then came back to Dallas. Around the same time, Chris, whose high-school sweetheart thing was long over, moved back from New York.
They reconnected, and they got married in April. All together now: Aww!

I lived and spent my adolescent years on my Grandfathers dairy and vegetable farm in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Notwithstanding the work ethic I learned, I learned many life lessons that I reflect upon today when memories are triggered. Discussions of 'fake news' triggers such a memory for me.
There was no concept of fake news on a dairy farm in those days. There was no 24-hour news channel, no Facebook, and no cable in rural America. You either watched one of three broadcast channels to get you news or you read a newspaper (We also talked to our neighbors). That's how you got your news – and it was family event that coincided with dinner (Dinner was called supper in that house). After Supper, we all relaxed before milking cows for the night milking and learned about what was happening in the world.
It was quality news. News stories were presented, by the likes of Walter Cronkite, from a neutral perspective. You were given the best facts they had. After the news ended, we'd go to the barn and spend the next three hours milking cows. During that time, a common point of discussion was the news we saw. We had to figure out for ourselves how the news affected us and we had to form our own opinions about it. No one told us how we were supposed to feel about a new story – you had to decide for yourself. The idea of selecting a news channel based on your political affiliation wasn't born yet. You didn't choose a news channel based on your political bias, you chose the channel to watch based on how good the reception was. Going outside to turn the antennae was a normal chore.
Times have changed quickly. For example, here at West Chester University the news on all the televisions is CNN, which has a political bias in a specific direction. Interestingly, although both CNN and Fox news channels are available, someone at the University makes the news channel selection on our behalf. I hope it's a janitor. Maybe we should turn all 'news' channels off, except for the University TV channel – our Communications major use that for practice.
I stopped watching all news because it's become a hurtful political propaganda machine designed to attack people who do not align with each other's political perspective. Are we being cowed by the Billionaire Media Moguls with political agendas – or are they just capitalizing on a business need; do Americans want to be presented news based on how they align politically? Seems like we are being presented news that we agree with and minimize the perspectives of the 'other' side. Sounds dangerous.
I miss the old news – good old-fashioned Old-School reporting of events from a neutral perspective. I trusted it – a feeling I haven't experienced in several years and don't expect to feel again – possibly ever. I fear most news has become so biased that it should be considered 'Fake News'.

EVEN MORE BREAKING NEWS — (from previous post on April 25, 2018)
Just to let you know that the author of this post and his WKDW-FM 97.5 Radio Co-host R. J. Malloy are NOT taking the Florida Supreme Court hearing involving Florida Bar charges of professional misconduct against Florida attorney Mark Stopa lying down, a team of attorneys and this author drafted an Open Records Act request to the Clerk of the Supreme Court, demanding a copy of the Florida judge's remarks as part of the transcript, to further analyze it to find out whether or not to bring in a team of attorneys to sue the State of Florida Legislature, each state legislator personally and in their individual capacity, the Florida Attorney General (for not doing something to prevent potential conflicting legislation from being enforced) and the Florida Bar and the Judicial Qualifications Commission of the State of Florida who had to have known the implications of the legislation that rewarded judges' behavior in foreclosure courts across the state with bonuses based on performance in clearing foreclosure dockets. Read the request here:
We will be following up on this in short order and are still looking into the "rewards program" for judges. It disturbs us (the team of attorneys I am in communication with) that collectively, as both lawyers and non-lawyers, that the legislature could stoop so low as to "reward bad behavior" in the denial of due process rights by passing legislation incentivizing foreclosure court judges to quickly clear off their dockets in order to get these bonuses.
We are just getting word that the Supreme Court of Florida plans on suspending Stopa's license to practice law for one year. Generally, attorneys have thirty (30) days to clear off their case loads and close their practices after getting formal notice. We are awaiting further news on the latest developments.
(Updated on May 31, 2018 to reflect new development in this matter.)
The sinking feeling that overcomes Florida homeowners entering the foreclosure arena (the Sunshine State's version of a 3-ring circus aka "rocket docket") was finally manifested in the case against Florida attorney Mark Stopa, who has been at the center of controversy for being abrasive before these judges, resulting in possible disbarment for professional misconduct.
In my book, when you win foreclosure cases (which means the banks lose), judges don't like it … by that I mean having the obvious thrown in their faces; however … and we are trying to get the transcript from Stopa's recent Florida Supreme Court hearing … it does appear that the deck has been inadvertently "stacked" against Florida homeowners in favor of not only the banks, but the judges hearing the cases as well! Think I'm exaggerating here? Take a look at what Stopa posted on this Facebook page:
Even with the glare of the screenshot covering up the word "notable", what is hard to fathom is how Florida foreclosure court judges are seemingly on the "take" when it comes to clearing off their court dockets and how they were incentivized by the Florida legislature. So, does this mean that Pam Blondie is going to investigate this scheme? Not likely. She wouldn't investigate the OSCEOLA COUNTY FORENSIC EXAMINATION, which Stopa's buddy Matt Weidener snubbed on Orlando television. These two aren't "holier than thou" in my book; however, I am willing to concede that the testimony from this hearing is probably damning in more ways than one and could have only happened at Stopa's expense. What makes these allegations (in the form of testimony from a judge included) make things any different? Felonies are felonies and judges handling foreclosure cases appear to have gone right along with the scheme of things. Among the rumors … that judges financially profited from the scheme based on their "performance"!
If the transcript (which trust me … is going to be gone over with a fine-toothed comb) bears any other significant testimony, you can bet we'll use it against the judges in Florida's foreclosure courts relative to Florida Criminal Code § 817.535 cases. The Florida States' Attorneys have every opportunity to launch their own independent investigations but none, including the recently-elected Aramis Ayala (in Florida's 9th Circuit) have lifted a damned finger to investigate and prosecute any of this suspect behavior.
Exactly how many legislators and judges have been paid off by the banks to facilitate this fraud? The stuff contained within the Stopa Facebook post seems to parallel the Volusia County judicial rag that told judges there that their "performance" was being monitored and if they knew what was good for them, they'd tow the line and clear their foreclosure dockets! If one of their own has come clean and testified to the Florida Supremes that this sort of crap behavior is going on, then I say, it's time to unseat every damned Florida foreclosure judge and every legislator that fell victim to this corruption (the next best thing to tar and feathers or the stocks) and hang their sorry ass political careers out to dry.
When you incentivize a Florida foreclosure judge, what do you think he'll/she'll do? Of course they want to go out with a financial bang!
How many of these judges are pedophiles? Has anyone ever investigated how much pornography is on these judges' computers?
It seems we can't shake these rumors. All one has to do is examine the number of prosecutions were conducted by the Florida Judicial Qualifications Commission (JQC) and a lot of the so-called "disciplinary" actions seem lame when you compare what came out in Stopa's hearing about the incentivizing of a foreclosure judge? Has anyone investigated the Florida judges for acquiring property through the very own foreclosure hearing they ruled upon? We'd like to hear about it. If you have pictures or recorded documents of Florida judges acquiring foreclosed homes … this represents a clear conflict of interest and a bigger part of the conspiracy to defraud Florida homeowners. Hell, it represents serious criminal activity, obviously spearheaded by some serious bank lobbying in Tallahassee.
We received word from the Florida Supreme Court on the request we posited under the Florida Open Records Act and got nowhere because, even with clarity, the Clerk did not "get" what we were asking for, so we're doing more research into the Stopa hearing, which apparently was in St. Petersburg, Florida (Pinellas County) in an open hearing held on April 21, 2018. From Stopa's Facebook page, we know a woman judge spoke on his behalf and revealed damning information about judges being paid bonuses! Stopa's office is not saying much of anything, but we are hearing back channel information that Stopa may not get any suspension time at all, following our Open Records Act request! We have also heard that other complaints against him are still pending and haven't made the disciplinary committee yet. This is even more disconcerting because it demonstrates that the more you aggressively fight for homeowners, the more the "system" tries to beat you down. Foreclosures are big business and the banks don't like losing, so they will resort to any means to take out their opponent, so we're going to start doing the same back at them!
If you didn't get what I just said … we will be explaining HOW in the upcoming workshop! And the banks aren't going to like it!
Stay tuned!
We're going to figure out a bigger mousetrap given this testimony and we expect to have that scenario to present to you in the upcoming FORECLOSURE DEFENSE WORKSHOP … because now … given this diatribe (seen in the screenshot above) … the judge has now become an additional target. This also means that given the testimony, it is possible that thousands of foreclosure cases could be vacated and reopened in order to vet judicial involvement. I don't think you realize the implications this testimony has brought out … yet.
The registration to attend this workshop is still OPEN! Visit the Clouded Titles website and sign up now to learn strategies on targeting not only the banks' attorneys but the judges as well! This workshop is for educational purposes only and is not representative of the corruption that appears to be ongoing in Florida's foreclosure courts! After this revelation, it's no holds barred! We told you … when it comes to foreclosure … this means war!
The information presented here is viable for all 50 states!

Emotions – good or bad – play a big role in your mental health. Whether it's anger, fear, joy or gladness, each of the emotions we experience have a purpose. However, when not handled well, they could backfire and put our mental health in danger.
Your emotions impact how you think and behave. So understanding your emotions is very much important.
FEAR: It holds you back.
Fear gives us an uncomfortable feeling. It signals our body that something wrong may not happen. Fear is our emotional response to perceived threats. Without fear, we could end up risking our lives every single day. So we should all be thankful that we have this very helpful emotion. But most of the time, the fears we have are irrational. It prevents us from seeking a better work opportunity, pursuing a business venture, traveling to other places, entering a relationship, and so on. Our fears hold us back from being the person we want to be, and from achieving our short and long-term goals. Learning how to overcome your fears allow you to enjoy life even better and explore the world around you, test your capabilities, and ultimately reach your aspirations.
SADNESS: It makes you disconnected.
Sadness is something we all don't want to experience, same thing with fear. And when we are feeling sad, we feel like isolating ourselves and disconnecting from other people, including our friends and family. Sadness also pushes us to withdraw from the things we love doing, such as our hobbies and interests. It makes us want to focus on negative thoughts, reminisce negative experiences, and worry about the future. But then again, sadness is something we shouldn't avoid or repress. Sadness has a special role of making us know that something needs attention, whether it's our relationship with someone or our relationship with our inner self. Reflecting on the cause of your sadness might be the best way to overcome it and feel better and happier.
ANXIETY: It makes us illogical.
Are you fond of worrying about the future? Do you think of problems way before they come? While some things can really make you feel anxious, too much worrying doesn't really help. And most of the time, it just makes us irrational. It leads us to pointless 'what ifs' and catastrophic predictions. Anxiety, like fear, is our emotional response to a perceived threat. But when we are not able to control it, anxiety takes over our life and makes us feel miserable. On a piece of paper, write down the things you keep on worrying about. Then beside each item, list down why you should worry. Making a clear analysis of your worries and where they are coming from will make you realise that most of the things you worry about are not really substantial.
SHAME. It makes you want to disappear.
Shame is a very powerful emotion that can break a person. When you did something embarrassing, you feel like you want to disappear, reset the time and redo the things you've done. Feelings of shame can last for long, and really affect our mental health. It makes you want to cover up the mistakes you are ashamed of, or cover who you really are. It is important that we realise that we can't undo our mistakes. Mistakes are mistakes. Ruminating about them does not change the fact that we committed a mistake. What is important is we focus on correcting those mistakes and preventing them from happening in the future. No one is perfect. Everyone fails. Everyone commits mistakes. Everyone does shameful things. Be true in who you are and take accountability of what you've done. At the end of the day, you would be thankful for that mistake as it has made you a better, wiser person.
DISAPPOINTMENT: It makes you give up too soon.
When things don't turn out like what we've expected, we feel frustrated. And the more we feel frustrated, the more our confidence and self-esteem decline. Ultimately, it can cause us to exert less effort and finally – give up. Disappointments are part of life. Everyone, even the most successful people in the world, have their own stories of disappointment. What is important is that we are able to pass through this stage and pursue our goals. If you feel like the task you're in is getting too difficult to bear, pause if you have to. Take a break. And then come back when you're feeling recharged. Spend time to increase your knowledge and skills on the craft you're at. They say 'practice makes perfect', so don't stop trying.
ANGER: It makes you regret in the end.
Anger is a very powerful emotion as well. When we are angry, we don't think clearly. All we are focused on are the burst of negative thoughts in our head. It is normal to feel angry when someone has done you wrong, when you make a mistake, or when your plan hasn't turned out alright. Anger is a normal emotion. Who doesn't get angry from time to time? But we should all be careful about this emotion. Too much anger can lead us to doing things and saying things we might regret in the end. Whenever you feel like your anger level has come to its highest point, do not confront the person yet. Take a deep breath. Go out for a quick stroll. Let your thoughts come into place. Allow yourself to calm down. You will realise how great it feels to be in control of yourself.

Gaspari Nutrition Incorproated, 575 Prospect Street - Suite 230, Lakewood, NJ, announced
that it is conducting a voluntary nationwide recall of all Lot Codes of the company's dietary supplement product sold under the name Novedex XT, which was marketed "for increasing natural testosterone production" and contains 3,17-keto-etiocholetriene, also known as ATD, an anti-aromatase. Gaspari Nutrition is conducting this consumer level recall after being informed by representatives of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that 3,17-keto-etiocholetriene does not meet the definition of a dietary ingredient and therefore the product is in violation of provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
Potential adverse events associated with the use of anti-aromatases could include the following: decreased rate of bone maturation and growth, decreased sperm production, infertility, aggressive behavior, adrenal insufficiency, kidney failure, and liver dysfunction. Consumers with liver, kidney, adrenal, or prostate abnormalities are at higher risk for developing adverse events. Gaspari has received no serious adverse events in over five years of marketing Novadex XT.
Novedex XT had been sold internationally and domestically, to distributors, wholesalers, retail stores and direct to consumers, but was discontinued by Gaspari Nutrition for domestic sales on October 4th 2010. The product was sold in blue bottles with a black cap, containing sixty (60) capsules.

Collect: Capture what has your attention
Do you want to start gaining control? Collecting (also known as Capturing) is the first step.
In this stage you gather everything that enters your world that commands your attention. The goal here is keeping all the open loops that appear in your life out of your mind. Instead, you put them in your Inbox, where you will process them eventually.
Collecting is a healthy habit
There are 2 good reasons for introducing the habit of collect in your life:
When you keep your mind clear your level of focus increases. Having uncompleted, fuzzy stuff in your head when trying to get something done it is not only unpleasant, it is counterproductive.
Keeping all your incomplete stuff in a single place helps to let yourself relax. You will experience a feeling of control, since all the things that require your attention are neither lost nor dispersed.
There are 2 key factors to succeed in your collecting strategy:
- It has to be quick and systematic. Things have to be collected as soon as they enter your world.
- You should empty your Inbox periodically. This is what the Process stage is about.
Collect in Zendone
In Zendone you have a single GTD inbox where all your collected stuff is located. You can see it in the
Process section.
You can collect stuff using 2 mechanisms:

Why does fat have such a bad reputation?
Because the sugar industry, processed food companies, and special interest groups - they all lied.
For over half a century, we were made to believe that fat was absolutely terrifying. Without any substantial evidence, we, as a society, suddenly became scared that fat would stick to our arteries like gunk in old pipes and cause strokes, diabetes and heart attacks.
In the 1960s, the sugar industry paid scientists to play down the link between heart disease and sugar by promoting saturated fat as the culprit.
The demonization of saturated fat derives from a misunderstanding of processed foods containing sugar, chemicals and saturated fat; Packaged foods are filled with sugar and low quality ingredients, which are optimized for taste and addiction instead of health and performance.
Now we know the truth.
Not all fats are bad. Not all fats make you fat.
The Keto revolution arrived and changed everything. We now know that NOT ALL FATS ARE BAD. Plant-based fats, like those found in avocados and nuts, are essential to our diets and provide incredible benefits like giving us energy and supporting our metabolism and brain function. Plant fats are essential to our health.

Keto. It's a popular diet these days but what's all the fuss about? Are all these people eating more fats really losing weight and becoming healthier... Or is it just a flash in the pan? We'll give you a brief overview of the key terms, walk you through some of the primary benefits and risks, break down what your optimal macronutrient balance, get you a meal plan, shopping list, and some final tips for getting started!

Accorsing to Gamespot.com Fedor Emelianenko will be in the new mixed martial arts game produced by EA Sports.
EA has also acquired Renato Sobral and Gegard Mousasi to appear as fighters in the game. While these are big names to the hardcore MMA fan, EA sports is going to have a hard time competing with the UFC video game that was released earlier in the year.
Dana White will not allow any fighters on his active roster to appear in the game, and for pretty good reason. Apparently EA Sports shunned him when White approached the company with the video game idea.
"But let me tell you what—I've been in the trenches for almost 10 years, and I've been dealing with all these businesses, and EA was one of them. EA Sports told us, 'You're not a real sport. We wouldn't touch this thing. We want nothing to do with this.'" , said White.
In order to add some appeal to the video game, I have come up with a list of potential characters that might draw the attention of not only the hardcore MMA fan, but the casual fan as well.
Chuck Rydell – A fictional light heavyweight legend of the MMA world, known for his brutal one punch knockout power.
Carnage Jackson – A wrestler turned boxer known for his antics inside and outside the ring. He'd also compete in the light heavyweight division.
Ryoto Lachida – This fictional fighter would be touted as the most "elusive" fighter in the game. While most of the fighters would be labeled as kickboxers, wrestlers, or BJJ experts, Ryoto would be known for his Karate.
Andersen "The Tarantula" Salva – A muay thai/BJJ expert who has endured success in both the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions.
"The Enigma" JD Benn – An MMA champion whose BJJ and boxing are on another level. JD is another character who has tasted success outside of his weight class.
Just a few off of the top of my head.

This video reveals that the jew is purposefully using their campaign of "multiculturalism" to destroy White identity and society. With the emasculation of the Aryan male in an effeminate culture of vanity and perversion, the jew can get away with such arrogant and open plans to destroy the White Christian nations. In the mid-19th century a sedition trial would have been over long ago, and this jewess devil would have been lawfully dispatched for the attempted destruction of a nation. Yet the demoness featured in this video is not alone. She is one of millions throughout the West who have been forcing a program of "multiculturalism" and "diversity" on the White nations for over a hundred years now. With the progress of their agenda, they have now become completely open about it. When will the civilized nations awaken, and see that they have become like Africa and Mexico and India? Hellholes and cesspools of corruption and anarchy await a sleeping Christendom.
"Multiculturalism" is not an inevitable justice. It is not a natural state for any species. It has never been been successfully implemented anywhere at any time. Everywhere that the diverse races have mingled, the evidence is absolutely clear that destruction and decay have been the only results. Rather, "multiculturalism" is a Talmudic political agenda developed and leveraged by the jews in order to destroy White Christian society. So today there are gangs of muslims roaming the streets of Europe, raping White women at will and murdering White men, all who foolishly accept these floods of alien beasts under the guise of "political correctness". Wake up, White man! Or your doom is inevitable, while satan laughs at you for believing his millions of media lies.

Intertek has been selected to provide third party inspection services to support the procurement of Jemena's Northern Gas Pipeline (NGP) Project.
The 623 km planned pipeline will connect Northern Australia's vast gas fields to the east coast gas market, running from Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory to Mount Isa in Queensland at a cost of around AU$800 million. Intertek will provide critical expertise at the point of fabrication, deploying a team of quality inspectors to oversee manufacture of the pipework including quality of welding, steel composition, compliance with Australian standards and adherence to engineering specifications.
The NGP Project will help secure energy resources for the population on the eastern seaboard, opening up untapped resources in Northern Australia and unlocking the next phase of economic growth for the Northern Territory.

it's almost friday.
I went to see Jason Mraz last night and once again, he was perfectly lovely. I'd probably follow the guy around the country if possible, but that might classify me as a stalker, which is something I probably shouldn't get involved in. But seriously, if you ever need to get in a good mood, go to a Jason Mraz show. He's is the most positive, uplifting person. He gets the whole audience so into his shows, has a great sense of humor, and makes you feel like it's OK to just let loose and have a good time. In fact, one of his favorite quotes is, "Don't let your mind stop you from having a good time," something i think many more people should take into consideration. Especially me. I tend to over-think things WAY too much.
Julie and Julia comes out tomorrow and clearly if you know me, you know this is like the most ideal movie ever for me. I loved the book and think the movie looks pretty fabulous. I wanted to try to finish Julia Child's My Life in France before seeing it, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. Unless I put aside all my work and become a speed reader for the rest of the day.
Today equals exactly one month until my sister's wedding. Freaking out. I know I shouldn't be, but I still have to write my speech which is making me crazy (and all emotional) and get my dress hemmed (and lose 832 pounds) and make a bunch of appointments and do a bunch of other things. I cannot believe my sister is going to be a married woman!! And I can't believe that in one month all of this is going to be over. But one of my very best friends just asked me to be in her 2010 wedding, so that means wedding celebrations are not even close to being over for me. One thing I can say is thank God I love all these future husbands! It makes planning and celebrating so much more fun.
Be sure to enter the giveaway at We are not Martha! It's for two $50 Gap giftcards and all you have to do is leave a comment. We're accepting entries until Friday night, so get in while you can.
Happy almost Friday! I seriously spent all morning thinking it was Friday. Ughh.

If there is one thing the island of Mallorca can be very proud of, is that it has all the ingredients to become an idyllic place to spend a holiday: nice weather all year around, a beautiful mountain range, stunning sea, exquisite gastronomy, authentic towns and villages and a wide range of activities to enjoy. But there's more: the capital city of the Balearic Islands has also become one of the most a-vanguard cosmopolitan cities when it comes down to style, fashion, art and home décor. And today we would like to offer you a cultural itinerary to discover the most interesting art galleries in Palma, only meters away from the neighborhood of La Lonja, home to our smart city boutique hotel.
We will start this tour with the 'Horrach Moya' gallery, located at Plaça Drassana, only a couple steps away from La Lonja and BO Hotel. This well-known gallery has over 500 sqm and is a leading gallery offering international contemporary art.
Next stop: 'Pelaires'. This gallery is one of the most famous galleries on Mallorca, as it actually is the gallery with the longest tradition in contemporary art in Spain. Without a doubt, a must-visit if you're in Palma.
Another one of the art galleries in Palma we like to recommend our guests is the 'Gerhardt Braun Gallery', located in Calle Sant Feliu, also just a couple minutes away from BO Hotel. This gallery is focused on international well-known artists and also many rising talented painters from all over the world.
The paintings decorating Ritzi Palma's and BO Hotel's walls have been chosen from this gallery and are also on sale, in case you want to take a look at them while staying with us.
Finally, if you want to discover young local artists, you should go visit a gallery called ABA ART LAB, which you will find at Plaza Porta de Santa Catalina.
And just 2 minutes away from this cool gallery, you'll find another small gallery called 'Galería Maior', which focuses on the promotion of contemporary art.
If you have the occasion to visit Palma during September, you cannot miss out on the opportunity to enjoy one of the most magical nights of the year: 'Nit de l'Art'. On this very special evenings gallery, museums and art exhibitions play the leading role not only in actual galleries, but also in shops and all over Palma's streets. Restaurants and bars play along with this wonderful initiative and open its doors until late to celebrate art in every possible way. Every Palma citizen and visitor takes over the streets to enjoy the most artistic night of the year.

More and more, adults are discovering they have had ADHD their whole lives. Many are surprised, when they take in their child for an assessment, to hear about ADHD and realize it all sounds very familiar.
Alternative strategies to being medicated are being discussed as a first line approach, strategies such as therapy, meditation, ADHD coaching, ADHD-friendly organization, exercise/movement, better sleep. In fact, in countries other than the U.S. these are usually the first stop, before medication. More research studies are focusing on adults and women in particular, so we are learning more of what is truth and fiction.
You may have been trying and trying. You may feel you are not measuring up to your own potential, and not up to your your spouse's expectations. It's time to try differently, with first steps I've outlined below.
Together, find out what's happening.
Adults who are in a committed relationship where one has ADHD will have had difficult times, especially if the diagnosis is recent. If you believe one of you may have ADHD, talk to your naturopath or primary care doctor, but the diagnosis should come from a psychologist or neuropsychologist. This is the professional who can sort through everything you are dealing with and most objectively tell you the likely causes. They will include recommendations for what to do next. Coaching around ADHD friendly strategies is known to be a strong solution.
You both need to know what you're dealing with so you can carve out your path forward, together. Take your partner or spouse with you. If you do have ADHD, you likely do not have a high level of self awareness around your symptoms, how often they interfere with daily life, and their impact on those close to you. This is part of the ADHD at work.
Talk openly about ADHD. Educate yourselves.
Learn about the brain and how ADHD symptoms show up differently for each person who has it. Discuss how ADHD plays into your daily life. For the partner with ADHD, get to know how this affects you, so you can figure out strategies, best practices – ways to manage it. It is very possible!
For the non ADHD partner, listen, listen, listen. This is a different way of processing, thinking, and doing things. There is never one right way to do things. Please look for change and improvement and comment on it. The habit change doesn't have to be perfect; it needs to be better than yesterday.
A favorite resource is Melissa Orlov's site. She has dealt with this personally and professionally now for some time. Blog, books, webinars; I hear great things and have read one of her books (so far).
Figure out systems together to manage life together.
The person with ADHD often initially has difficulty managing the various parts of life: spending enough time with friends, keeping work at work, household management, children and or aging parents, etc. It's using a lot of those executive function capabilities that are the essence of the ADHD effects in your brain: organizing, prioritizing, emotional regulation, initiating, sustaining once it's not new, etc.
The one who is organized in the classic, non ADHD sense, could be the one to get your lives set up on a Google calendar, as several couples I'm working with have decided on and are working with very well.
Or perhaps the one with ADHD is great at using reminders for important things. The non ADHD partner is great at juggling the finances: money in/money out, the bill paying process, taxes, investments. Use those strengths as work on finances together. Communicate about finances, but let each do his or her best piece. [The link is to "Your Money Life," my Pinterest Board .]
Divide up the work & be accountable each other.
This is a tough one, particularly for the non ADHD partner. You may think that by doing it all yourself or taking charge of everything that life will be smoother.
It won't. Eventually, you will be frustrated that you have to "do everything." You'll resent your spouse. Effectively, you could be enabling your partner and then change will never happen, the change you've been hoping for. Set limits. Divide up responsibilities. Let go.
Lay out the responsibilities, chores, projects, etc. together. Find ways to keep these visible for each other. Sit down and talk them through once a week or for a few minutes each day. It takes more work and it is worth it.
I often hear the ADHD partner say something like "I'm not living up to my potential. I know I'm smarter. I know what I need to do. I keep failing." Both of you need to understand that this internal language and thinking is very common. And that means we have a long way to go to feel good again.
Practical strategies are one of the best ways to prove to yourself that you are capable of running your life. The small things you do each day add up to a proven track record.

The Conservatorium is the heart of the University of Newcastle's musical community. Founded in 1952 by Frank Huchens and Harold Lobb, it was an offshoot of the New South Wales State Conservatorium of Music.
'The Con' (as it is fondly known) started life as a crude army hut located in Civic Park. In 1957, it moved out of the hut and into the upper floor of the War Memorial Culture Centre (better known as Newcastle Region Library today). The occasion was marked by the Conservatorium Orchestra playing a song composed for the move by Frank Hutchens.
In 1979, the Conservatorium relocated once again, this time to TPI House on Auckland Street before finally moving into its current location which at the time was known as the People's Palace to cater for the Con's increasing student numbers.
1988 saw the construction of The Conservatorium's concert hall completed – and named after Founding Principal Harold Lobb, as well as The Conservatorium becoming autonomous from the NSW Conservatorium. The Con became the Faculty of Music for the University of Newcastle the following year.
The Conservatorium offers classes not only to UON students, but to the whole Newcastle community, which are taught by expert teachers in a state-of-the-art facility. People can enrol in tuition for a particular instrument; or study conducting, composition and even music craftsmanship. The Conservatorium also offers people the chance to join a number of ensemble groups and choirs, or audition to perform as a solo artist as well as playing host to Australian Music Examination Board (AMEB) exams.
If, perhaps, performing and producing music isn't quite your thing, there is also an extensive range of concerts from many local, national and international artists that are held in the Harold Lobb Concert Hall.
More information on the programs offered by The Conservatorium can be found on the UON website, along with a program of upcoming events.

Competitive advantage in transport
Jul 05,2018 - Last updated at Jul 05,2018
I was listening to the radio the other day and listeners came on the radio station and stated that app-based transportation should be abolished or that yellow cabs need to be equipped with apps in order to be relevant and properly compete in today's market. A common misconception that many businesses have is that if a competitor is attracting customers based on a service or product that is providing them with a competitive advantage, then they must be mimicked as that is the only way to achieve success.
To obtain an advantage over your competition does not mean mimicking what they have doing for them, but simply finding ways that you can service the market where they cannot.
In business school, they teach what is called a price/quality grid. What that means is that when businesses come up with an innovative idea, they must match themselves within the price/quality grid. Do they want to provide a product or service with low quality and low cost, high quality and high cost, low quality and high cost or high quality and low cost. Many people ideally shift towards wanting to provide a high quality and low cost product, however, each of the four quadrants serves a particular customer base. Say you want to purchase a cheap shoe that you can wear once to a muddy hike then discard of, in that case you would be a customer looking for a low cost, low quality shoe.
Yellow cabs first need to make a determination which quadrant they wish to serve, then realise what they can offer as a competitive advantage to that target audience that app-based transportation cannot.
Let us move on to the other request those individuals had which is abolishing app-based transportation. To that I say that competition is what makes for a healthy business environment and rather than destroying it, you must capitalise on it. What do I mean by that? Competition between businesses allows businesses to increase their quality to stay relevant and try to lower their price, which benefits the customer base.
Let us say four sandwich shops opened next to each other and all provided the exact same sandwich and ingredients; all four sandwich shops would not reach to their optimum level of customers as each store has three others right next to it that offer the exact same sandwich. But let us say four sandwich shops opened right next to each other, but each of these sandwich shops offered different ingredients, these sandwich shops could benefit from each other's customers and reach a higher level of customer attractiveness. Let us say I was a customer at store A and usually eat there, one day I feel like a change so I got to shop B. And one day, a shop B customer feels like trying something different, therefore, tries the shop C. In this way, all four shops would have reached a higher level of customers, as well as benefited the shops around them.
How would this apply to yellow cab? Well, what does a yellow cab offer that app-based transportation does not? That would be a competitive price and ease of accessibility. In the price/quality quadrant, it would compete on price and, therefore, would attract and monopolise a certain demographic. But in order to do so, they need to listen to the claims preventing them from doing so. App-based transportation never refuses you a ride. If yellow cabs can capitalise on that, as well as increase their customer service and cleanliness of vehicles, they can compete with app-based transportation and monopolise the low price demographic.
Also, prices of some app-based transportation fluctuate during rush hour, yellow cabs do not. Fixed pricing could be an area of focus for them to also capitalise on the low price quadrant.
One thing either can do is search for a demographic that neither advertises that they strongly serve. Example would be people with disabilities. If one can market that they can get a physically challenged person from point A to B safely without the need for an escort, they have also gained that demographic as a customer base.
The point of this article is that competition makes for a healthy economy and raises the bar. Rather than focusing on blindly mimicking others, we should study our target audience, match it to the quadrant we wish to serve, and study and implement areas of improvement. There is room for all to grow!

text: Chrisette Michele scores first No. 1 album 9:48 AM PDT 5/13/2009 by Keith Caulfield, Billboard , AP FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Ciara's latest effort bows at No. 3 Chrisette Michele notches her first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 as her sophomore set "Epiphany" (Def Jam) debuts atop the list with 83,000. She edges out the seventh week of the "Hannah Montana: the Movie" soundtrack (No. 2 with 81,000) and the arrival of Ciara's third album "Fantasy Ride" (LaFace) at No. 3 with just under 81,000. But, despite locking down the top spot, Michele's opening of 83,000 is the lowest sum for a No. 1-debuting album in Nielsen SoundScan's 18-year history. Previously, the low-water mark was held by Johnny Cash's "American V: A Hundred Highways" (American) in the summer of 2006, when it started with 88,000. Only one other album has debuted at No. 1 with less than 100,000: the Notorious B.I.G.'s "#1's" (Bad Boy) in November of 2005 with 99,000. This was Michele's best sales week. Her previous best came when her "I Am" debut started with 27,000 in July of 2007. The set debuted and peaked at No. 29. Ciara's "Fantasy Ride" is her third top three debut in as many tries. Her freshman 2004 album "Goodies" entered the list at No. 3 with 125,000 while 2006's "The Evolution" blasted onto the tally at No. 1 with 338,000. Despite the fair amount of heat generated by "Fantasy Ride's" first single -- "Love Sex Magic" (featuring Justin Timberlake) -- the album clocks Ciara's lowest first-week sum yet. Elsewhere in the top 10 this week, Rascal Flatts' "Unstoppable" (Lyric Street) moves up one notch to No. 4 with 58,000 (up 10%); last week's No. 1, Bob Dylan's "Together Through Life" (Columbia), falls four slots to No. 5 with 51,000 (down 59%); Lady GaGa's "The Fame" (Streamline/KonLive/Cherrytree/Interscope) moves up one position to No. 6 with 41,000 (up 4%); Taylor Swift's "Fearless" (Big Machine) slides up two slots to No. 7 with just under 41,000 (up 42%); Rick Ross' "Deeper Than Rap" (Maybach/Slip-N-Slide/Def Jam) falls from No. 4 to No. 8 with 35,000 (down 32%); Ben Harper and Relentless7's (Virgin/Capitol) "White Lies for Dark Times" debuts at No. 9 with 34,000 and the "Twilight" soundtrack (Summit/Chop Shop/Atlantic) slips from No. 6 to No. 10 with 31,000 (down 8%). Many albums on the Billboard 200 saw gains this week in the wake of the Mother's Day holiday on May 10. That's likely owed to discount pricing and non-sale-priced purchases of sets that have female appeal. Thus, an album like Taylor Swift's "Fearless" can generate a 42% increase in sales. Only 14 titles in the top 50 this week see a decline in sales. Overall album sales in this past chart week (ending May 10) totaled 6.51 million units, up 5.4% compared to the sum last week (6.17 million) and down 19.8% compared to the same sales week of 2008 (8.12 million). Year to date album sales stand at 130.5 million, down 12.9% compared to the same total at this point last year (149.9 million).

ABC Family Is Just the Latest Cable Network to Rebrand Itself With a New Name
Why these 8 made the big switch
ABC Family will change its name to Freeform in January because to be free is to be liberated, to be unbound, to be unadulterated. But in this case, it won't be truly free since Freeform will still be part of a basic cable or satellite package.
But we digress.
Viewers will find the same shows, just a new name that better fits the network's programming strategy with series such as the wildly popular Pretty Little Liars, Switched at Birth, and Baby Daddy. (Less family, more free.) The network says the new name "speaks to the mindset and attitude of what the channel has defined as Becomers," a 69 million-strong block of younger millenials with spending power in the trillions, Disney figures.
ABC Family got its start in 1977 as the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN). It was renamed the Family Channel in 1990 and Fox Family Channel when News Corp. acquired it in 1998. Fox sold to Disney in 2001, when it became known as ABC Family. And that got us wondering about other cable network rebrands. Here are seven other recent relaunches:
- On Jan. 1, CBS changed the name of TV Guide Network to Pop. Gone was the on-screen guide, replaced by original programming like Schitt's Creek, reruns of Dawson's Creek, and prime-time airings of daytime's Days of Our Lives.
- In August 2013, Speed Channel became Fox Sports 1. At the same time, Fuel TV became Fox Sports 2, aligning the 21st Century Fox channels with the Fox Sports brand.
- On Jan. 2, 2012, NBC replaced Versus (previously known as OLN) with NBCSN. And with that, the NBCU network began to make a run at Disney's ESPN.
- In March 2012, Disney shuttered Soapnet and replaced it with Disney Junior, which had been a programming block on the main Disney Channel.
- On Jan. 1, 2011, Discovery Health became OWN, Oprah Winfrey's very own TV network.
- On Jan. 28, 2008, the capricious Discovery Times channel became the crime-focused Investigation Discovery, or ID.
- On Jan. 1 2008, Turner's CourtTV became truTV, but trial coverage continued until June 2009.
And we might see yet another rebrand in the coming months. A+E Networks may replace its H2 network with the Vice channel. A+E bought a minority stake in Vice in August 2014.

Ten years ago, Potomac resident Cathy Trauernicht's beloved Labrador retriever sprained her legs jumping out of the family's station wagon after a car ride. Aging pet owners and their aging canines are facing a dilemma: how can man travel with man's best friend without enduring a doggie hip strain — or a human back injury?
"I said to my husband, 'We need to build a ramp for that dog,' and he built one from wood with carpeting on it … but it didn't travel easily," said Trauernicht.
Determined to find a solution that would ease physical stress for both canine and human, Trauernicht embarked on what would become a 10-year quest for the perfect doggie ramp. She sketched designs for a ramp made of plastic and consulted an engineer to help make it as ergonomic as possible. She checked out her competition in the dog ramp field and learned that most products on the market were cumbersome and difficult to train dogs on.
Eventually, Trauernicht and her engineer opted for a lightweight plastic called polypropylene that is strengthened with glass fibers. The plastic forms 18 links — held together with hinge pins made from extra strong polycarbonate — that can roll into an approximately 16-pound cylinder for easy portability. The product's warranty is applicable for dogs up to 150 pounds.
"What makes it most unique is the roll-up and roll-out feature, and it comes with textured strips that give the dog added traction," said Trauernicht. "[The dog ramp] comes with instructions on how to train the dog to use the ramp."
The local inventor consulted an animal agility trainer for tips on writing the instruction manual, and she also let 10 local dogs try out the product.
"People have told me it's great because they don't have to lift their dogs into the car anymore," said Trauernicht. "Even young dogs can benefit from a ramp. My dog's best friend had two rear-leg surgeries because of tendons that were pulled. So it's never too early to start training dogs on how to use a ramp to get in the car."
LADY CHESAPEAKE, a.k.a. "Chessie," is a 12-year-old, 80-pound golden retriever owned by Kathy Sheehan of Potomac. Chessie served as a canine tester for the ramp, and it took her less than 15 minutes to learn to use it.
"She adores the product," said Sheehan. "She is moving a little bit slower these days, so it takes a great relief off her hindquarters using the ramp to get in and out of our station wagon and also up and the down stairs to the front and back door."
Sheehan said that the dog ramp has also helped protect the humans of the family from strained muscles as well.
"In the past we've had to lift her hind legs, and at 80 pounds it's been trying and puts a strain on our backs," she said. "It's been a great relief for everyone involved to have her get in the car by herself."
Lyndsay Leggin's dog Toby also tried out the dog ramp. Toby is an 85-pound golden retriever/yellow Labrador mix, and at 6 years old, he represented the younger canine population.
"He's not an old dog and he doesn't need it all the time, but he is developing something in his rear hip so it's nice for that so when he comes down he doesn't jar it," she said. "The angle of [the ramp] makes it very easy to use … and the grooves in it make it comfortable for him to run up. It's very easy for him to run up and down."
AFTER DESIGNING a stylish carrying case and selecting a small manufacturer in Somerset, Wis., with the help of her engineer, Trauernicht secured a patent for her dog ramp and named it Ramp4Paws.
She has been busy spreading the word about her dog-friendly product through her Web site www.Ramp4Paws.com, distributing brochures at local veterinary clinics, and promoting the ramp by word of mouth among other dog lovers in the community. Trauernicht recently completed paperwork to officially sell her patented dog ramp, and she has already made multiple online sales and received an inquiry from a British dog owner.
After investing 10 years in Ramp4Paws, Trauernicht said that she'd like to see this project through to the end before contemplating any other canine inventions. Ramp4Paws has seen her through two pets. Sadly, Corrie, her 4-year-old black Labrador, was hit by a car last spring. Trauernicht hopes to have a canine successor later this year who can enjoy the patented dog ramp.
"My objective now is to get this into as many households as I can," she said. "I've gotten very positive feedback, and people tell me I've covered all the bases with this instructional brochure. I designed [Ramp4Paws] from the perspective of a dog lover who knows what it's like trying to get dogs in and out of cars."
Leggin said that Trauernicht is driven as much by her love of animals as by her entrepreneurial spirit.
"Because of her love for dogs she's really put her heart and soul into the ramp to make it the best product for the money," said Leggin. "It's a quality, safe product and something that will really work for dog owners."

Monta Vista, the mobile and embedded Linux company, unveiled version 5.0 of its carrier-grade embedded Linux kernel this week.
The performance and security upgrades are yet another contribution from an infrastructure vendor to the continuing saga of upgrading the IP network in order for it to become the single standard for connectivity.
The carrier grade edition is used in switches, routers, IP multimedia subsystems as well as in base stations for both CDMA and GSM cellular networks by seven out of eight of the top equipment providers to the mobile carriers, according to Dan Cauchy , director of marketing for carrier and mobile at Monta Vista.
One of the key enhancements to the RTOS (Real Time Operating System) is a 50 microsecond preemption latency capability. In simpler terms, this means that when one task interrupts another task, the RTOS can identify which protocol has a higher priority. The kernel will then interrupt the lower priority protocol and switch to the other within 50 microseconds.
Cauchy says that the previous carrier edition, Version 4.0, achieved what he called an unprecedented six 9s availability. Version 5 availability is higher, but no official benchmark will be available until it is field tested.
"NTT Docomo ran over the last 18 months with less than 13 seconds of downtime," said Cauchy.
Cauchy believes the system has been made "more solid" by increasing the automated test bed to support more than 100,000 Linux tests.
"This makes it even more bug free than Version 4.0," said Cauchy.
A new debugging and diagnostics feature dubbed "predictive serviceability" has been added to monitor the system for possible failures.
Real-time application patching will allow network managers to apply a binary patch without rebooting the system. When the patch is deployed, the next time a function call engages that part of the system, it will branch to the new patch, said Cauchy.
An application called Field Safe Application Debugger will allow managers to log into the system live and apply trace points without halting the system or affecting live traffic.
Another new feature works in a similar vein to an airplane flight recorder. Like the black box, it allows a support person to get into the system after a crash and collect data. The data is written to a flash subsystem.
SELinux, developed by the NSA is now available for the first time. Up until now, Cauchy said, it was not mature enough to be considered commercial grade.
"It touches very low-level stuff in the kernel, and previously, it was too risky to do that," Cauchy said.
SELinux uses role based access control and has the ability to allow or deny policies to any component in the system.
Monta Vista Carrier Grade Linux Version 5 is expected to be available by the first of the year.

The rates of hospital C-sections are higher than ever. This suggests many new mothers don't actually need the procedure. One patient-safety group is bringing attention to this fact and calling on hospitals to make better judgments.
New data from the Leapfrog Group shows the number of C-section births at hospitals in 48 states and Washington DC.
According to a press release, this is the first time C-section data by hospital has been gathered and compared.
Using federal data on quality measures, plus recommendations from the Healthy People 2020 initiative, the Leapfrog Group created a benchmark for hospital C-sections: Per hospital, only 23.9% of births should be C-sections.
However, over half of reporting hospitals failed to meet this target.
Rural hospitals fared better than urban hospitals. Nearly 50% of rural hospitals that reported birth data had C-section rates of 23.9% or lower, while only 36.8% of urban hospitals fell within this range. In fact, one hospital in the Northeast metropolitan area performed C-sections on new mothers over 40% of the time.
Hospitals in Utah and Idaho had some of the lowest C-section rates, with averages of less than 20%. On the other hand, hospitals in Kentucky and Florida had the highest rates of over 32%.
Medical significance
While C-sections are necessary in certain cases to save lives, they're performed too quickly in others. And it's often for the sake of convenience – for the future parents or even the doctors.
C-sections are major surgeries and come with many risks and a significant recovery time. The cost is also higher than a traditional birth, which draws more payor scrutiny.
With that in mind, the procedure should only be performed if it's medically necessary. And in hospitals that have high C-section rates, that's not likely the case.
Preventing overuse
C-sections are performed more often than necessary on first-time mothers who've reached 37 weeks and are carrying one fetus in the head-down position.
According to data from the Leapfrog Group, a C-section isn't appropriate for first-time mothers before the "pushing" phase of labor begins even if labor is slow but progressing and lasts several hours.
During the pushing phase, there's no upper limit time frame for labor. Until a first-time mother has pushed for at least three hours (or an experienced mother has pushed for at least two hours), a C-section shouldn't even be considered
As long as the birth is progressing, the time may be extended depending on the baby's position or whether the mother is using an epidural.
In addition, C-sections shouldn't be the "go-to" choice for large babies, mothers expecting twins (as long as the first twin is positioned head-first) or babies in the breech position a few weeks before the due date.
Hospitals may need to do more to educate providers on these facts and encourage them to promote traditional birth over C-sections unless specific circumstances dictate otherwise.

Business owner, Gavin Conway from farming stock, born and bred Rhodesian. Gavin's father was a real connoisseur Biltong maker and taught him well. From a very young age, Gavin was always out hunting on the farm with his .22 rifle and in later years used to hunt with his Father on a friends' game ranch. All the meat was used for making Biltong – so the art of Biltong making is in his blood.
They immigrated to the UK in 2001 and settled in Macclesfield, Cheshire and was then restricted to making Biltong occasionally using beef joints when on special offer from the supermarkets. Over a few years it has now grown from a small hobby of making a few sticks for family and friends, to being a registered Biltong manufacturer business, using a wholesale butchery supplier and processing nearly 150 kilos of meat a week. Yet we are still small enough to give a very personal professional touch to all our products.
Here he is weighing spices to use on a batch of biltong.
Gavin's Homemade Biltong was formally born in April 2014 and just over a year later was granted full Health and Safety / Hygiene approval for food manufacturing through the local Council.
Initially very plain spice mixes were formulated and tested and over a few months of modifications, the perfect recipes evolved. These recipes are now used to make the delicious Southern African Traditional tasting Biltong, Droëwors and Boerewors that we take pride in making ourselves. We have progressed from using a small homemade wooden box dryer, perched on top of boxes in the garage to using a fully equipped purpose built shed unit in the garden.
We use 100% British Beef, Pork and Lamb in our products and the combination of our spice mixes, along with our very personal homemade touch, results in the finest quality, high protein, rich, delicious Biltong and Droëwors snacks and scrumptious tasting juicy Boerewors.
All our products are fast becoming big sellers and sometimes find it hard to keep up with demand. We also try to accommodate our customer's special requirements and make to order if requested. We can normally have these special orders posted out within a few days. We generally hold good stocks of all our products and post or courier out same or next day.
Our 2016 annual review/inspection by the Cheshire East Environmental Health Officer resulted in us being upgraded from 3* to a 5* Food Hygiene Rating which we still proud to have, as well as being an approved UK EC food processing business. We were awarded a great Taste Award for our plain Boerewors Sausage in 2017 – a really great feeling comes with this award. Then in 2018 we were awarded Great Taste awards for our Plain Droewors and Chilli biltong.

Additional Information
Husk or Ground Cherries
Physalis pruinosa
1,300-1,400 seeds/g. A treat inside every paper wrapper! Same genus as Chinese Lantern and tomatillo, fruits ripen inside their protective husks. As clusters of berries sweeten, they turn from green to golden yellow, drop off the decorative branching plants, and reach perfection as their husks thin to a near-gossamer papery texture. The sweet berries have an indescribable flavor, great for raw snacks. Don't eat them green––they can be a powerful emetic.
Culture: Need filtered light and temperatures at least 75°, preferably closer to 90°, to germinate. Cover seeds with just a light sprinkling of soil and place the flats in the hottest part of the greenhouse, transplanting after last spring frost. Husk cherries tolerate a touch of frost but give up when temperatures dip below 30°. In a good year, about half will ripen in time. Will readily self sow, although volunteers never mature as quickly as those started indoors.

Baumgarti PB-64
Paul Baumgarti was an Austrian who had worked on three helicopter designs during the war years before emigrating to Brazil. He experimented with a number of light helicopters in the 1950s and 1960s including the PB-64 which was an ultra-light single-seater with a minimal tubular fuselage structure. The PB-64 had a pulse-jet propulsion arrangement with the two 13-kg ITA jets fitted to a transverse stabilising beam set at right angles to the rotor. The aircraft had no tail rotor but was fitted with a small rudder. No production of any of these designs was undertaken.

Finance Only Unit
A second mls account was set up for our stake to handle funds for a regional YW camp facility. All the stakes participating won't necessaryily be using the site at the same time but since it is physically in our boundries, our stake is going to handle funds by accepting checks from all of the 20+ stakes involved then turn around and issue bigger checks to the facility. The financial department gave me instructions to add a unit to our mls and now on the log in page we have a choice to log in the stake mls or the camp mls they also sent the President deposit slips, endorsement stamp and checks for the new unit (I personally think it would have been easier to run funds through a AMFA category but I guess they wanted stakes to have the ability to make out checks to a Camp Unit as opposed to our stake). Last night I got into it a bit more and see that the new finance only camp unit has two categories that I can deposit into and presumably write checks from, AMFA & "Cleared Funds". I'm just wondering which one of these I should be using when depositing checks? Does anyone have any insight on this?
Use the AMFA category for depositing and writing checks from.
