Are you an entrepreneur or small business owner in the organic industry? Many companies, regardless of industry and size, face the challenge of finding great talent. Naturally, you would like to hire employees that are qualified and add value, but ideally individuals who are also passionate about the organic industry and the products you offer. Unfortunately, not everyone is passionate or committed to a company's mission and products. Here are some creative ways you can overcome that challenge to attract the right people for your company.
Using popular online job boards and recruitment sites is a good start. You may attract candidates who are qualified for the function of the job, but you may not be attracting candidates who are committed to the organic industry. Below are some other approaches.
Definitely reach out to those in your personal network. They may know someone. Or they may know someone who knows someone. The good thing about utilizing your network is that your friends, former colleagues and peers can help spread the word and look out for your best interest. Chances are they know you on a personal level and know how you operate and what you need on a professional level.
Depending on what jobs you are looking to fulfill, you may be able to hire talented individuals who can work remotely from home, such as sales people, graphic designers, or techies. This would be an attractive job benefit for the employee as well. So if you face a talent shortage where you are, it's not the end of the world. Look for help elsewhere if you can. Which brings us to the next approach.
Seek out candidates based on where they hangout as a community. On social media you can join various organic-focused groups and forums. These groups are on LinkedIn, Google+ and Facebook to name a few. Join them and engage in the discussions. Let people get to know you, your business, and your opportunities. This not only gives your business free marketing exposure but it could also attract active and passive candidates and ultimately generate new customers.
Trade shows can sometimes be expensive if you want booth space. But admission may be free or minimal if you just want to walk and explore the trade show floor. Wearing a company-branded shirt or hat is a great way to promote your brand and help you introduce yourself to other businesses and other visitors. Bring your business cards. Trade shows will inevitably have active and passive job seekers present. Networking at an event could lead to a new hire, new business partnerships and especially new customers. It's also a great learning experience because you can see how other businesses, both large and small, market themselves.
If you work near a local college or university it may be a great place to find eager interns or graduating students for entry-level opportunities. Speak with the advisor at the college's career center. It is a great way to partner with a college and gain exposure to a younger audience especially if they are health conscious, interested in organic products, and want to learn more about the industry and the market you represent.
This approach may not be for everyone. Some people may be wary of jeopardizing friendships if times at work get stressful. It really depends on who your friends are and your management style. If you have a friend that is equally passionate about organic products and supports what you are doing then they could be a good fit, especially if you know how they think and work. If you have already established a level of trust with them then this could be a good option.
Your customers are loyal. They visit your site. They are passionate about organic like you are. They may love you so much that they wish they could work for you. A loyal customer could be your next employee. So don't just have a link on the bottom of your web site like most companies. Call it out more prominently that you are hiring so that you attract active and passive visitors. Broadcasting the job opportunity also shows that you are growing.
If you need short term assistance for your small business, then hiring a part-time freelancer on an hourly basis or project basis is a great option. For instance, you may need help with your website, marketing, social media, graphic design or blogging. There are freelance sites that allow you to post your opportunity, disclose your budget, and select a freelancer based on his/her experience, rating and portfolio. SimplyCareer.com has a great listing of popular Freelance Job Sites.
Jobganic.com is a unique niche job board and recruitment site that serves the Organic industry, which includes organic companies and also job seekers who want to work in the industry. Large companies and small businesses use Jobganic as a recruitment tool to attract new employees and as a marketing tool to ultimately attract new customers. What's great is that Jobganic allows organic small businesses to post job opportunities for free.
These are some ways a small business in the organic industry can attract and hire talent. If you have some ideas of your own, then please share them with us. We'd love to know!

Let us begin this article by making one important point: Intelligence, true intelligence, is a notoriously difficult thing to measure. During his childhood, Thomas Edison passed on to his mother a note from his teacher, saying that his child was "addled" – an old-time word for "dumb." Edison was many things, but dumb he was not. In fact, he was a truly gifted child.
Bodily-kinesthetic: physical abilities; bodily agility; hand-eye coordination; handling of objects.
Intrapersonal: abilities applied "within the self"; self-awareness or introspection of beliefs, emotions, goals, and motivations.
Interpersonal: interacting with and understanding others – verbal and non-verbal communication; sensitivity to others' moods and temperaments.
Logical-mathematical: understanding abstract and complex ideas; deductive reasoning; detecting patterns; working with numbers.
Musical-rhythmic: discerning pitch, rhythm, and tone; movement to music; development of rhythms; the creation, recognition, reflection, and reproduction of music.
Naturalistic: relation to physical surroundings; growth of natural foods (e.g. fruits and vegetables); nature survival; knowledge of animals, plants, etc.
Verbal-linguistic: understanding and use of language; verbal and written skills; use of rhythm, sound, and tone in words; memory of images, faces, and fine details.
Smart kids work hard to achieve. In contrast, gifted kids quickly can become bored.
Smart kids are a teacher's dream-come-true. They show up on time, behave themselves, and work hard. As a result, they succeed in the classroom. In fact, smart-yet-not-gifted kids are more likely to succeed in the traditional academic setting, as they are motivated primarily by grades and recognition. Therein lies a big problem for gifted kids: neither grades nor recognition typically drives them.
Gifted kids often already know the answers without much effort. This can cause problems in the traditional classroom. Without internal incentives and external stimulation, gifted kids will often withdraw into their rich inner worlds.
Smart kids know all the answers; gifted kids ask all the questions.
Bright kids are excellent at processing and retaining information. This fact, combined with their work ethic, leads to outstanding academic achievement. Gifted learners, often, do not need nearly as much repetition to become familiar with the material. As a result, gifted kids are forced to sit through hours of class time when they could simply "pass a test" and move on.
Since the gifted kid's insatiable curiosity is not being quenched, they'll dig more deeply into the subject – and will want to know everything about it. They'll ask themselves questions and use Google or a book to find the answers – and effortlessly retain their newly acquired knowledge. So, when the next class comes around, the gifted kid is already well beyond anything that the teacher teaches.
Bright kids like the classroom; gifted kids don't (usually).
As mentioned, the typical classroom setting is the perfect place for a bright child to succeed. In contrast, this is often not the case for gifted kids. Gifted children's incompatibility with the traditional classroom setting is generally attributable to a lack of stimulation.
Due to opposing extremes – extreme curiosity and extreme boredom – gifted kids usually become self-directed learners, taking responsibility for their own education. Unlike the classroom setting, self-learning allows the gifted child to indulge their highly inquisitive nature – an absolute must for them to learn effectively.
Bright kids are clever, while gifted kids are original.
Think of the great innovators throughout history – da Vinci, Tesla, Graham Bell, Edison, Gates, Jobs. All original minds, these men were (likely) what we now recognize as "gifted." It is most noteworthy that some of these guys didn't have the best scholastic records.
Gifted children often reach knowledge milestones much faster than average. Language skills, in particular, seem to come more naturally for the children with gifts. An extensive vocabulary and speaking in complex sentences are two ways that a child may exhibit these skills.
Pattern identification (e.g. a jigsaw puzzle or what time of day Mommy comes home) isn't something too ubiquitous in little ones. Unless that is, your little one possesses gifted-level intellect.
Gifted kids, as mentioned earlier, have an insatiable curiosity. To satisfy this curiosity, they'll read every book they can get their little mitts on. This sign is especially evident when something piques their interest.
Gifted is just another word for "exceptionally talented." Some kids are naturals at certain things, like sports, science, or the arts. Extreme talent is almost assuredly a sign of gifted intelligence.
Gifted kids, because of their advanced intelligence, have difficulty relating to their peers. They may be misunderstood – or just plain bored. As such, they may seek out older kids, teachers, and other adults for stimulation.
Okay, so there is a caveat to this one. Most gifted kids have an exceptional ability to focus on the things that interest them. A gifted kid stuck in a boring classroom will quickly lose this ability, however. As such, they might even be considered as having poor focus in a typical classroom setting.
A gifted child can also have deep emotional intelligence. If you have a gifted child, they may shake their heads at the antics of their peers. Gifted children won't pull too many pranks or get into (too much) mischief.
Being gifted and problem-solving often go together. Not only do these kids approach everyday problems differently, but they may also offer up suggestions on how to improve something.
Because of their maturity and uncanny ability to solve problems and think outside the box, some gifted kids show a remarkable aptitude for leadership. Of course, these skills are more evident when the child is in a desirable setting.
While some kids patiently wait for the parent or teacher to say how they want something done, gifted kids jump right into it and ask questions later. Or not ask questions at all, having figured things out on their own.
Gifted kids, probably because their brain is always going, seem be in perpetual movement. Notice, too, that really smart and gifted kids tend to speak way too fast. The reason for this verbal assault is that they're trying (unsuccessfully!) to get their words to catch up with their thoughts.
Like most children, gifted kids love spending time with people. But solitude allows them to be alone with their thoughts and exercise their creativity. Gifted kids enjoy solitary activities such as reading, writing, and drawing.
Some gifted kids, especially those with high artistic intelligence, love the sights and sounds of nature. Their curiosity and talents of observation may be on full display when out in nature.
Yes, you read that correctly. While highly intelligent, gifted kids tend to devote most of their mental energy toward things of interest. It is not altogether uncommon for an advanced kid to excel at one subject and struggle with another. Underachievement for gifted kids is usually attributable to short attention span, carelessness, frustration, and most of all, flat-out boredom.
"An accurate label, and a clear explanation, and ongoing guidance about what it means to be gifted will help gifted children adapt." – Gail Post, Ph.D.
In spite of all the problems associated with identifying intelligence, it is vital to a child's development. Finding out if a child is developmentally challenged, for example, can mean the difference between success and failure. This also applies to a gifted child.
Gifted children who remain unidentified often become targets for labeling and bullying. Certainly, we cannot afford to let this happen. In fact, a gifted child has the potential to become a leader in this complex global society. Above all, children with unique gifts must be placed in the right situations and allowed to obtain success – on their terms.

Raise Price to Improve Revenues and Margins
CHOICE 1 OBJECTIVE: RAISE PRICE, REDUCE PERFORMANCE AND ITS COST
CHOICE 2 ISOLATE SEGMENTS: DUE TO A UNIQUE FUNCTION
CHOICE 3 COMPONENT: ADD AN EXTRA FEE ON TOP OF VARIABLE CHARGE
1 6141 2004 It used to be that loyal customers could trade their frequent-flier miles for free trips. But today's travelers are increasingly being nickel-and-dimed for that privilege. The latest dig: Paying to redeem your miles. American Express is levying a charge on its customers to redeem points for flights. Other changes include a $29 (up from $15) to reinstate points forfeited by late payments.
2 7941 2006 In June, the Giants announced that they need to sell licenses for every seat in the new stadium to raise $370 million. Fans can buy the rights to seats comparable to the ones they now hold. The fixed prices start at $1,000 for the upper deck and rise to $20,000 for the field level. The tickets themselves cost $85 to $700. Fans were very displeased with these new costs.

Each time you think that what you have is not enough the truth is that it will never be enough. As some people will say, the word 'enough' is relative! Two different people may have access to exactly the same thing and one will constantly say that it is not enough but the other will never say that it is not enough. They may live in the same environment and have the same needs. They may have the same targets to meet and have the same social obligations to meet up with but they will still have different account balances in life and in the bank because the word enough is really relative.
An example is the situation of two people in an office who are on the same level and are earning the same amount of money. They are both young couples with a child each and have almost the same requests at all times from families and friends but one has something left at the end of the month and the other has debits to fight at the end of the month. What can be the issue considering the fact that they earn the same thing.
The issue with money people have not always paid attention to is the fact that wealth is not cash but a combination of attitude, influence, information and management skills. I have the boldness to define wealth in this manner because what you know is what is fetching you what you currently have. The people employing you or engaging your services are simply paying you for the knowledge you have acquired over the years and that is why it is difficult in some organizations to earn more until they have the proof that you have gone to learn more! Wealth must also have the word attitude in it because money will take on the character of the owner! Two people may have a dollar but they will definitely not do the same with the dollar note. One may decide to smoke with the money and the other may decide to spend time thinking about what can be done with that one dollar that can bring in more money.
Influence is also wealth because it about the relationships you have built over the years that you can now draw from. If you need to borrow money I must say that the people who will be willing to borrow you money are people you already have some measure of influence with. If you have not built relationships over the years it may be difficult to get money from people even when they have it. Management skills will also come to play in the lives of people who seem to be earning something so little because one will be what is so little and spend it anyhow but the other will see what should be called a seed and think about how to plant it in the right soil for it to germinate and produce the required harvest later.
The point I am trying to make is a very simple one but I consider it necessary to drive home the point using some of the cases above. When you see things differently you will always have a different result because the amount in your hands is not the issue. The mindset that is controlling the money is the issue so one of the first assignments people need to begin to do is to work on their perception of money.
– You must constantly seek to add more to the information reserve that you have. A lot of the things that are seen as businesses today began as mere information that some people acquired and probably did not even know that some other people would need them. When you add more to your information reserve then you will at a point realize how the information in your hands can be used for business purposes or exchange for more money.
– Anybody who desires to have more must have more influence and having more influence is about deliberately working with other people and earning their trust in every dealing that you have with them. Some people must be comfortable being around you, others must find it easy to make you a confidant while some people must be able to approach you for counsel on some of the issues of life. There are people who should be looking up to you and there are people who should respect you for something that you do and not because you demand respect from them. On a daily basis people have to see how you contribute to their well being or their productivity in life. When all these are in place you will find that when you need to engage people's support based on your influence then it will be easier to engage their support because of your deposits over the years.
– Your management skills must improve and you have to do this consciously all the time. One of the ways the managerial skill can become obvious is for you to first of all have a record for the things that you have and the way they go out or come in. If there is no account for what you earn or what you spend then you are not working on your managerial skill because you may never know if you are spending wisely or not. You may never know if what you are doing is too expensive compared to what you are earning at the time.
– I must add that anybody who wants to be rich or who thinks that he needs more than what he has must make it a habit to relate with people and find it convenient to be in their company. When you make it a habit to relate with people easily there are some information you will get that you could never have gotten if you do not relate with people. You may have built a skill but you may not always know where the skill is needed until you have related with people who know about the place where there is a need for your skill or expertise.
You can always have more than you already have if you think that what you have is so little. The first thing to do is to make sure that you do what will bring more with the little that you already have. As one of my revered role models will always say, 'if what you have is not enough, turn it into a seed.' Learn to make, manage and multiply money. You cannot afford to seat with the token you are getting and all you do is complain that it is not enough. If you ever want more then you have to increase your capacity so that you can get more.
I strongly believe that there is always more to get from where that little came from. All you have to do is to build capacity either physically or mentally in whatever situation and you will have a different result in what you are doing.
Sometimes the problem is not that some people do not have enough. The problem is that they start spending and would have spent the money halfway before realizing some very important things that they were supposed to do. If that is the case then make it a habit to plan for the money that is coming in. a lot of people plan for babies when they are expecting babies and the fact is that their preparation for that baby will determine the comfort of that baby when it arrives. People plan for a new apartment when they need to move in and they plan for some parties or a number of other things are not so important. They give so much time and attention to the less important things and never give such time and attention to the money they have or are expecting.
It's amazing how people plan so much for a date with a spouse but have so little plan for the money they get and they later begin to wonder where the money went to. From today, never ask questions about how your money disappeared if you never planned for how it will be spent or invested before it came.
Beyond opinions and motivations, the fact is that what is called little in your hands has made many others prosperous. Some only had skills and have become wealthy. Some had only needs and their needs drove them into discovering solutions for others. A few others had money and were able to multiply the money by creating a service. Money is only a tool that must be driven by something else if you really want to have it. The word little is relative and defined by your perception!

Edgy Las Vegas-based hard rock outfit Adelitas Way broke into the mainstream in 2009 with the song "Invincible," which appeared on numerous television spots for CSI Miami and served as the theme song for the weekly World Wrestling Entertainment Superstars show. Formed in the late 2000s by lead vocalist Rick DeJesus and lead guitarist Chris Iorio, the band (which also included rhythm guitarist Keith Wallen, bassist Derek Johnston, and drummer Trevor Stafford) released its eponymous debut on Virgin Records in July 2009. The band's sophomore effort, Home School Valedictorian, arrived in summer 2011 and featured new lead guitarist Robert Zakaryan after Iorio left the group within five months of their debut's release. At the end of 2012, writing began for the band's third album, while only six months later, Keith Wallen and Derek Johnston announced that they were leaving. In July 2013 the group entered the studio with Grammy Award-winning producer Nick Raskulinecz to record Stuck, which was released the following year and featured the hit single "Dog on a Leash," which peaked at number seven on the U.S. Mainstream Rock Chart. 2015 saw the release of the Deserve This EP, and the following year, the band issued their fourth studio long player, Getaway. 2017's Notorious included the singles "Tell Me" and "Ready for War (Pray for Peace)," the latter of which served as the theme song to TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs, a WWE pay-per-view event.

Ellon group to raise cash in Deeside walk
Tracy Gibb, with daughter Emily, and the team from Delicious in Ellon who are undertaking a fundraising walk in support of a local group on Lochnagar on May 3.
An Ellon businesswoman and five of her staff will be heading for Deeside this weekend to raise money for a local group.
Tracy Gibb, owner of sandwich takeaway and coffee bar Delicious, and her team will be embarking on a sponsored walk on Lochnagar and Loch Muick on Sunday.
I just want to make people aware that there is this group going in Ellon and that they can come along
Tracy Gibb Fundraiser
They are raising cash for Mums the Word, run by the Inverythan Centre which caters for anyone in the Ellon and surrounding area experiencing mental health issues.
The group was formed for local women suffering from postnatal depression and needs funds for creche facilities.
Tracy decided to organise the Deeside venture to help.
She told the Times: "The mums can come for a chat and coffee but there has to be creche facilities so their kids can be looked after.
"I thought I could do a fundraiser and get fit as well, so I asked some of the girls in the shop and quite a few of them wanted to do it.
"I just want to make people aware that there is this group going in Ellon and that they can come along. The centre is really good for that.
Tracy, 37, has a daughter Emily, 2, and suffered from postnatal depression and wants to help other local mothers experiencing the condition.
Mums the Word has around 10 members and meets on a Wednesday morning for an hour and a half.
Tracy said: "It has been really beneficial. There are 8-10 of us and we would obviously like to expand.
"We have a chat to see how everyone is feeling. I think because we are all going through the same thing we can relate to it.
"I just feel that if I can bring some positivity to new mums or it doesn't even have to be new mums.
This is what you can rent for £1,000 per month across the UK
"It's something that I never have thought that I would have suffered from."
Tracy will be taking part in the 16-mile walk on Lochnagar and part of Loch Muick with mum Liz, sister Vicky, and Helen Strachan, Marie Kelman and Laura Mess.
The women have been preparing for the fundraiser by taking part in walks at Haddo.
Although the bulk of the money raised will go to the mums' group, the remainder will be donated to the British Heart Foundation.


If you think Hillary Clinton's got it bad as a female running for President, take a look at how Victoria Woodhull, the first woman to ever run for President in the U.S. spent her Election Day: in jail.
To gain the proper perspective, we need to go back a few months. The summer of 1872 was very hard for Victoria. She was ill with a mysterious ailment that couldn't be diagnosed and that recurred several times over three months. Her beloved newspaper, Woodhull & Claflin's Weekly, shut down due to lack of funds. She had already been forced to sell her Murray Hill mansion, and then was kicked out of several hotels, while others wouldn't rent a room to her (no one wanted to be associated with her or the controversy that surrounded her). She and her family (husband, kids, parents, brothers and sisters) lived for while in the Woodhull & Claflin brokerage offices, but when the landlord found out, he raised her rent so high they were forced to abandon even that location, so that they were homeless for a few days. In desperation, she sent a note to Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, asking for his help to get one of the hotels to let them stay there. He curtly refused.
Her sister, Maggie, eventually managed to rent a place for them to stay under an assumed name. Victoria was tired and still ill, worn out from the whirlwind of her year, which had started off so promising. In September, at a meeting of the National Convention of American Spiritualists in Boston, she decided to finally spill the beans on Rev. Henry Ward Beecher – revealing her long-kept secret that the married preacher was having an affair with Lib Tilton, wife of Theodore Tilton, Victoria's former lover.
Not satisfied by this small audience – and perhaps in revenge for Rev. Beecher's refusal to come to her aid in her hour of need – Victoria began plotting on a larger scale. She and Tennie would resurrect Woodhull & Claflin's Weekly for one more explosive issue (though this didn't turn out to be its last, only it's most famous) that would right two long-hidden wrongs. While Victoria told every detail of the Beecher-Tilton scandal she could recall in a fake interview format, Tennie penned a story about the night a businessman named Luther Challis relieved a young girl of her virginity, likely against her will.
Victoria's "bombshell" was hidden within a seemingly ordinary issue of the newspaper, but that did not stop people from lapping up the scandal inside. According to my sources, the paper sold for 10 cents but by evening people were paying $2.50. The first run of 10,000 copies sold quickly. Some people rented theirs to read for $1.00 a day. One copy even sold for $40. More than 250,000 copies sold in three days. The distributor, American News Company, refused to replace it on the stands after the first 100,000 copies were sold so newsboys came to their offices to get them in person. Some copies were bought and destroyed by Beecher's supporters, for the article called in to question the idea of marriage as a bedrock of society.
But in the end, it wasn't Victoria's story that landed both sisters in jail on Election Day; it was Tennie's. In telling her tale of Luther Challis' lewd behavior, Tennie used a line that, although also quoted in the Bible (Deuteronomy), was considered obscene. "To prove he had seduced a maiden, he carried for days on his finger, exhibiting in triumph, the red trophy of her virginity." Then, when they were tricked into mailing a copy of the paper to Anthony Comstock, the country's self-appointed moral guardian, they were arrested for sending obscene material through the mail.
So instead of spending Election Day out attempting to vote for herself and getting arrested – and in the process making history – Victoria sat with Tennie in the jail cell of a common criminal. (Normally they would have been given special accommodations because they were wealthy public figures, but both the guest quarters and citizen bedroom were full at the time. And to add insult to injury, Victoria's one-time-friend-turned-rival Susan B. Anthony made history that day by casting her ballot in Rochester, NY. She was arrested and found guilty but refused to pay the fine. Her sensational trial the following year spread her message of suffrage far and wide – just as Victoria had dreamed of doing on her own.

Financial gambling is often thought of as something that hedge fund managers do but of course anybody who owns shares could be considered to be taking part in financial gambling while others will say that it is simply investment. Those that have lost money on the stock market will certainly feel that it was financial gambling. Financial gambling can however be just as much fun as casino gambling and indeed it is the online casinos that have made it that way by offering the chance to gamble on the stock market without actually having to buy or sell anything and you don't have to wait days or months to see whether you have won. Online casinos such as Ladbrokes casino or Party casino have special financial gambling sections where you can gamble on a particular stock market or even on commodity prices such as gold or other metals.The stock market prices are published at the end of every day but in actual fact the prices are moving every second and this is where financial gambling can be fun because you can gamble on the movement of an index over a period of time as short as minutes and even the experts cannot predict what will happen within that short a time frame. The online casinos will let you know where the chosen index is at any time and what the odds are of it reaching a certain level but clearly if your chosen time frame is 5 minutes your odds at the beginning of the 5 minutes will be better than after 4 minutes as by that time it might be fairly clear in which way the market is moving. You can try fixed odds financial gambling for as little as €5 and you know whether you have won or lost very quickly.


Two new studies find shortfalls in the Food and Drug Administration's approval process.
Two new studies find shortfalls in the Food and Drug Administration's approval process for heart devices such as pacemakers and stents.
Safety targets often weren't clearly spelled out in the research submitted by device makers and important patient information was missing, according to one study conducted by researchers from the FDA and Boston's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
A separate analysis by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, found heart devices frequently got the FDA's blessing based on research done outside the United States in small groups of patients. Many device studies lacked standards most scientists expect: randomization and a clear goal.
Dr. Jeffrey Shuren, the FDA's acting device center director, said the agency is taking a close look at its device program and making changes. It wants manufacturers to adhere to tougher research guidelines that will be out in 2010, Shuren said.
The FDA, the nation's chief watchdog on device safety, approves products ranging from wrinkle fillers to artificial knees. Heart devices fall into a category of high-risk devices that require the toughest review before they can be marketed. They include implantable defibrillators, valves and stents, which are tiny mesh-metal tubes used to prop open arteries.
The new studies, published in separate medical journals, cap a year of scrutiny and criticism for the FDA's medical devices division. In August, the head of that division resigned, months after scientists under his leadership alleged they were pressured to approve certain products. The year began with congressional investigators saying the FDA should take immediate steps to make sure the riskiest devices are approved through the most stringent process.
The new studies didn't examine the safety of the approved devices, and didn't look for differences in the approval process for items that were later recalled. Global sales for heart and blood vessel devices were nearly $76.7 billion in 2008, according to market research firm BCC Research.
"Companies need to better define precisely what they're measuring and at what time point they intend to measure it," said study co-author Dr. William Maisel, director of the nonprofit Medical Device Safety Institute at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. The analysis looked at the research behind 88 heart and blood vessel devices.
Maisel was an FDA consultant and another Beth Israel author was in an FDA fellowship program when the study was done. The FDA cleared their participation after conflict-of-interest screening. Three other authors are FDA staffers.
The second study appears in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association. Researchers from the University of California, San Francisco, examined summaries of the research behind 78 heart and blood vessel devices. It found that many devices were approved based on small studies -- 300 patients on average -- and two-thirds were approved with results of just one study.
"We were surprised at the number of devices approved without high quality evidence," said study co-author Dr. Rita Redberg. The research was supported by the university's medical school.
Both studies looked at devices approved from 2000-2007.
Much is at stake with device approval. In 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court found that federal law bars patients from suing manufacturers for injuries caused by FDA-approved devices.
In contrast, consumers can sue drugmakers over FDA-approved drugs. Drugmakers submit rigorous studies when seeking approval of new drugs, generally they must submit large randomized studies.
Redberg said she believes new leaders at the FDA want to improve the approval process. She joined an advisory committee to the FDA on devices last year, after the years covered by the study.
In both new studies, the researchers looked only at so-called premarket approvals. They didn't include devices cleared through an alternative FDA process -- "510(k) submissions" -- used for less risky devices that are substantially similar to approved devices. The FDA has asked the Institute of Medicine to review its 510(k) reviews, following criticism from safety advocates and government watchdogs.
FDA officials said the University of California researchers looked only at summaries of device approvals, rather than the full research. The FDA said the researchers also made faulty assumptions about device research, which is inherently different from drug research.
The most rigorous research randomly assigns patients to get either the experimental treatment or a standard treatment, or sometimes a placebo. Patients and sometimes doctors are "blinded," meaning they don't know which patients receive the experimental treatment.
FDA officials said requiring randomized studies for second and third generation devices would delay bringing engineering refinements to the market. They said it's often impossible to conduct blinded studies with devices.

New $533 million Wayne Co jail center estimated to be done mid 2022
DETROIT (WJBK) - Wayne County Executive Warren C. Evans provided new details Wednesday about the the new criminal justice center.
The County reached a tentative deal with Rock Ventures to build the $533 million center. As part of the deal, the County would invest $380 million with Rock covering the remaining costs and any overruns. You can read the full details of the tentative agreement below.
The center is expected to be completed in the spring/summer of 2022, and will house the County's 2,280-bed jail, sheriff and prosecutor staff and administrative offices, criminal courthouse and juvenile detention facility. It will include four state-of-the-art-buildings.
The center will be on property bounded by the I-75 Service Drive and East Warren Avenue.
Under terms of the deal with Rock, Barton Malow will serve as the general contractor while Hellmuth, Obata & Kassabaum, Inc. will serve as the architect.
Key components of the deal, which now head to the County Commission and Building Authority for approval, include:
Completion is expected in spring/summer of 2022, with Rock responsible for estimated costs of about $153 million, as well as any cost overruns;
If the actual cost of the criminal justice center is less than the budgeted amount, the County and Rock will share the savings based upon an agreed to schedule;
Rock will operate and collect net parking revenues capped at $30 million present value for various parking sites around the criminal justice center, after which the County will take over operation and collection of parking revenues. The County, however, retains complete control of 119 secured parking spaces for County use at no cost;
Rock has agreed to invest at least $250 million into a mixed-used development on the properties it acquires from the County, while utilizing at least 51% of Wayne County residents in the jobs required for development of the properties; and
Rock agrees to perform outreach to County-based businesses for their participation.
Rock will contribute $500,000 to parks located in Wayne County and $250,000 to support career and technical education programs for previously incarcerated citizens.
In exchange, the County will transfer to Rock, the existing Division I and II jails, juvenile detention facility and Frank Murphy Hall of Justice. Upon approval and execution of the deal, these parcels will be leased back to the County for $1.00 per year until the criminal justice center is complete and the County has transitioned to the use of the new facilities. Rock will also, in a separate transaction, purchase, the property where the unfinished Gratiot jail is located.
The County will pay its portion of the construction costs with remaining bond proceeds from the Gratiot failed jail project, new bonds specific to the current project and some general fund revenue. Based upon discussions with the Internal Revenue Service, Wayne County's bond counsel has advised the administration that the transactions, as structured, will satisfy applicable federal tax requirements.
"This has been an extraordinarily complex process involving over half a billion dollar development deal with land acquisition from a third party. I couldn't be prouder of my team, for all the work it took in reaching the best possible solution," Evans said. "I'm also pleased that building the new jail will allow us to close the County's three existing jails, leading to improved efficiency, cost-savings and addressing the long-standing poor conditions."

Business owners in the Caribbean territory of Grenada have been reminded that the annual stamp tax filing amnesty ends this month.
The amnesty started on June 1, 2017, and ends on August 31, 2017. It allows businesses who have not submitted an annual stamp tax return for the tax periods 2013, 2014, or 2015 to file outstanding returns in return for filing penalties being waived.
Annual stamp tax is computed by applying a percentage to the gross receipts of a business. The tax of any given year is calculated on gross receipts of the previous year. This means the amnesty tax periods of 2013, 2014, and 2015 will apply to gross receipts for financial years 2012, 2013, and 2014, respectively.
Outstanding returns can be filed in paper form or online via the island's online government portal.

Becca Heller Discusses Refugee Crisis
Former Skadden fellow Becca Heller ('10) of the International Refugee Assistance Project appeared on "The Open Mind" on PBS to discuss the global migration crisis and her work resettling refugees ("Liberty or Death," March 26). "We are operating on the ground, looking for really vulnerable cases who have maybe fallen through the cracks of the U.N. system and helping them navigate resettlement," Becca said. "Our interest is in getting desperate people to safety as quickly as possible."


when I try to login via twitter. Are you able to do anything about this?
Thanks for the problem report. Twitter have changed their API and discontinued the old version. I will migrate to the new API now.
Twitter login should work now.
Hey, thanks for the quick answer! Unfortunately it keeps giving me the error message.
That's very strange because twitter authentication works for me personally.
I only see some "read timeout" errors in the logs which would indicate that it couldn't connect to the authentication server - maybe you can check whether it works now, as it could be just a temporary problem.
How bizzare. But glad you solved it.
Seems the stats did't update this morning, maybe still a problem or should i simply wait until tomorrow?
What's your username and server?
Actually looks like the downtime issue described in this post has caused the updates to fail tonight :/. I will re-run them manually (already started for NA).
I launched EU update process manually as it didn't run at night. It should update now. Let me know if there are more issues.
Hmm no stats from yesterday? Also a weird one from Friday night, the stats included all my games except my T49 games which didn't show up??
Which server are you at?
I see your last update from this morning.
It didn't up date again? It usually updates a 3am but yesterday it was 9am and nothing today?
I did a manual update today as well (again around 9am :/).
Hey I migrated my account from SEA to KR.
After that, noobmeter stopped pulling my account.
Is their any way to reset my noobmeter data?
Can you provide more information about your account, please? Username / user ID?
I removed you from NM database manually so your account will reinitialize some time today (for now it is cached). Let me know if there are any issues.
http://worldoftanks.eu/uc/accounts/ shows "Website is unavailable due to maintenance works"
By the way, Alfredo, have you registered / linked your account? As in any case you should have updates from 17th, 18th, etc. of June if you have.
Yes, but have you pressed "Login/Register" button on top and linked your account with NoobMeter?
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but it shows your user creation time as "2013-06-19 11:08:35.482" - so perhaps you just did the linking recently and have to wait for next update (hoping soon as I just relaunched process manually, WG had changed URLs with 0.8.6 patch deployment) for it to update.
But in that case it would be normal that it hadn't updated before this.
But anyway I will try to remember to check that your account updates today.
Sorry but I didn't linked my account today. I wrote already to "Inconsistent data in WG feed" on "10 June 2013 12:44" about the same problem, but after this it work's a couple of days. But in any case Thx.
OK, no problem. I checked and account alfredo_carpaneto has just updated.
Let me know if there are future issues.
Apologies, issue should now be solved. If it is not, please report here, I will make more changes.
My stat is not updating since 17 November, 2013.
Hi, my statistic didn't actualize since 11.11.2013, my nick is lukaszpast, server Eu.
I know that this is different from other problems people are having, and I can't find a contact us or report issues link on the site. I haven't been able to upload replays for a little over a month now. It just says upload failed. NA server Freyrson, if you could see what the cause might be.

Israel Political Brief December 6, 2011: Remarks on Israel by three U.S. officials Clinton, Panetta & Gutman spark furor among Jewish community
Remarks on Israel by three U.S. officials spark furor
Source: JTA, 12-6-11
Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta spoke at the 2011 Saban Forum in Washington on Dec. 2, 2011. (Brookings Institution)
The Obama administration is reaping a whirlwind of criticism in the wake of pointed remarks about Israel by several U.S. officials over three days.
The U.S. ambassador to Belgium, Howard Gutman, caused an uproar when he suggested on Dec. 1 that hostility among European Arabs and Muslims toward Jews was rooted in anger over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and should be distinguished from traditional forms of anti-Semitism. Jewish groups condemned his remarks, which drew calls for his dismissal from Republican presidential front-runners Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney.
The following day, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta stirred controversy when he told an audience at the Saban Forum, an annual Washington conclave for American and Israeli policymakers, that Israel needs to "get to the damn table" to negotiate with the Palestinians and "mend fences" with its neighbors. The Anti-Defamation League expressed "surprise and dismay" at a speech that it said "disproportionately put the onus on Israel to overcome its isolation."
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made waves a day later at the Saban Forum when she reportedly expressed some concerns about the state of Israeli democracy.
The confluence of controversies has added up to a headache for the Obama administration's Jewish supporters and given fodder to its critics.
"This is the worst weekend we've had in a while," said a Jewish Democratic activist, who spoke on condition of anonymity, referring to the outcry over the remarks.
Each set of remarks share a common theme, said the ADL's national director, Abraham Foxman.
They're "putting all of the onus on Israel, and that's with Panetta, with Hillary and with the ambassador," he said. "It's something that we've had a problem with this administration."…READ MORE

Israel Political Brief December 4, 2011: White House Distances Itself from Belgium envoy Howard Gutman's anti-Semitism remarks
White House raps Belgium envoy's anti-Semitism remarks
The White House distanced itself from its ambassador to Belgium after the envoy said the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the cause of Muslim anti-Semitism.
"We condemn anti-Semitism in all its forms, and that there is never any justification for prejudice against the Jewish people or Israel," the White House said in a statement sent to Jewish leaders on Saturday night.
Howard Gutman, who is Jewish, said last week at a conference in Brussels on anti-Semitism organized by the European Jewish Union that "A distinction should be made between traditional anti-Semitism, which should be condemned, and Muslim hatred for Jews, which stems from the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinians." He added that "an Israeli-Palestinian peace treaty will significantly diminish Muslim anti-Semitism."
Gutman, an attorney, raised major funds for Obama's 2008 elections campaign, after which he was appointed ambassador by the president.
On Sunday, Gutman said he regretted that his statements to the conference were "misinterpreted," according to the European Jewish Press, citing the U.S. Embassy in Belgium.
"My personal history and the history of my family testify to the importance I attach to this subject and my unwavering commitment to fight anti-Semitism," Gutman, the son of a Polish Jewish Holocaust survivor, reportedly said.

The Department of Gender Studies proudly presents the recent publication of alumni member, April Hovav, in the top ranked journal in the sociology of gender, Gender & Society.
After awarding over 200 Erasmus Mundus scholarships and graduating over 800 students, the time had come to celebrate GEMMA's 10th anniversary. Sharing and disseminating our knowledges in Women's Studies and Gender now seems to be more necessary than ever. It is, indeed, an act of responsibility in order to fight increasing inequalities and injustice at global level.
Dr. Sarah Smith, Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Gender Studies, has just published her book Gendering Peace: UN Peacebuilding in Timor-Leste, in the Routledge series 'Studies in Gender and Global Politics'. Drawing on policy documents and field research in Timor-Leste with national organizations, international agencies and UN staff, the book examines gender policy with a feminist lens.

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala: One up on Dalal Street
Jitendra Kumar, Business Standard, 7/10/11
source: http://business-standard.com/india/news/one-updalal-street-/451700/
While many are sweating in the current environment, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala's portfolio has done well and seen new additions.
Even as the markets are weighed down by global and domestic concerns, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala has been relatively busy churning his portfolio. He has bought stake in three companies, increased and shed holding in some others, while sitting tight on the rest. Among the most successful investors in India, he recently bought stocks of Pipavav Shipyard, Sterling Holidays and Subex. While exploring the reasons that led the much-reported investor to buy these companies, we also look at the past to gauge his strategy.
DRIVING HIS ATTENTION
Jhunjhunwala has often been quoted that his investment strategy rests on identifying good companies with a scalable business model and good management (and, importantly, staying invested even if there are disappointments in the interim). Notably, says an investment expert, "Most of the holdings are in the mid-cap and small-cap companies. In fact, he looks for companies which could over time grow big and become part of the Sensex." (Click here for table THE BIG BULL'S PORTFOLIO)
To take care of the risk involved with smaller companies, Jhunjhunwala has spread his investments over a host of companies, across sectors and themes– a few multi-baggers typically would help offset an unsuccessful or sub-par investment in another company. This has helped him to make a fortune, which he now owns in various forms, including the 30-odd stocks worth nearly Rs 3,900 crore. Among his most successful investments are Crisil, Titan, Lupin, Praj and VIP, which together account for a little over 60 per cent of his portfolio's estimated value. In all these cases, he has held on to the stock for a long time, riding on the company's growth. The expansion in valuation multiples have provided further boost to the portfolio.
Says another expert, "He typically buys into a company at a very early stage. For instance, he entered VIP Industries at Rs 55-65 (in 2009-end, when it was loss-making and had concerns over debt), whereas foreign institutional investors and others started accumulating it at Rs 650." Among things that seem to get his attention is the macro theme (size of opportunity), which should typically be huge. Additionally, the companies should possess strengths that set them apart. An example, albeit old, is that of Praj Industries, an industrial machinery maker and an early mover in the ethanol equipment segment. Jhunjhunwala bought the stock in early 2004 around Rs 100 (unadjusted price), citing the emerging opportunity in the ethanol space. The stock rose to over Rs 1,000 in less than two years—since then, there has also been a 1:1 bonus, a 10:2 stock split and another 1:1 bonus.
PARING STAKE
Jhunjhunwala has also experienced some investments not working for him or earning below-par returns. Besides, at times he may have also decided to take some profit; he's never hesitated in selling stocks. For instance, he cut his holding in Lupin (bought in 2002) from 3.22 per cent in the March 2011 quarter to 1.73 per cent recently, though the reasons are not known. In the December 2010 quarter, he exited Punj Lloyd, when the company was in the news over demand concerns, as well as its huge debt.
To know more on his recent buys, read on:
Sterling Holiday Resorts
Sterling Holiday, a vacation ownership company (like Mahindra Holidays), has 15 resorts at key tourist destinations, including Darjeeling, Goa, Manali, Mussoorie and Ooty (total inventory of 1,258 rooms). Though Sterling had a first-mover advantage to capitalise on India's growing consumption demand and changing consumer habits, it also got saddled with problems. However, its suffering on account of debt has eased, with new investors and private equity investing in the company. Additionally, a new and experienced management has been put in place to drive future plans. After falling in 2009-10, revenues are increasing at a fast pace (58 per cent in June quarter), with a turnaround expected by 2012-13.
Subex
Subex, which provides operations and business support system to telecom companies across the globe, saw its stock fall almost 95 per cent from its peak of Rs 730 in January 2007. This can be attributed to worry over the telecom space and its excessive debt (almost 2.6 times equity in FY11). The restructuring of its FCCBs, improvement in the internal cash flow and fund raising has, to some extent, alleviated the debt concerns. Analysts expect its debt-equity to fall to 0.87 times by 2012-13. It recently also sold a non-core business (which should improve profitability) and won a few orders.
Pipavav Defence & Offshore Engg
Pipavav Defence is among the most recent buys of Jhunjhunwala, who has bought convertible warrants (conversion at Rs 78 per share). With its world-class shipbuilding capacity, the company is well positioned to gain from the huge opportunities in the Indian defence space. It recently entered into an agreement with Mazagon Dock to help the latter hasten implementation of its big order book of Rs 100,000 crore. While the deal opens a window of opportunity to partner with the largest defence shipbuilding company, it will also help diversify revenue stream and improve utilisation of facilities.

The Professional Convention Management Association expects to welcome a record number of attendees to its Convening Leaders annual meeting, now taking place through Wednesday, Jan. 11, in San Diego. Although the association won't release specific attendance figures for another 10 days, a record number of planners registered for the event, and president and CEO Deborah Sexton expects the total attendance to exceed last year's figure of 3,743, including more than 200 students. The organization currently has more members than ever before, added outgoing board chair Susan Katz, and is enjoying an 83 percent retention rate for the year. The association recently completed mapping out a strategic plan consisting of three pillars that will determine its future course of action, noted incoming chair Kent Allaway, CMP, executive director for the International Association for Energy Economics. The focus will be on building community, continuing to invest in and provide professional education, and leading the industry with innovative approaches to planning. The PCMA Education Foundation, which raises money for scholarships and grants to support education, exceeded all fundraising goals for the year. According to incoming foundation chair Liz Erickson, executive director of meetings and incentives, North America, for Fairmont-Raffles-Swissotel, the foundation is working on a three-year strategic plan. The foundation will strive to do a better job communicating all initiatives to members this year, added Erickson. Typically, the foundation spends $200,000 a year on grants and scholarships.


I am mainly being a nutter from MotorNutz.
Im having a midlife crisis at the age of 23 and im wanting to buy a bini for my daily drive. There are two ive driven the Mini Seven and fallen in love but yet to try the Orange cooper s. No matter what im going to need a loan what do you guys think i should do?
My experience with BINIS is don't bother. I had a Cooper S on a '08 reg and it drank more oil than petrol. My wife bought a R53 cooper on 53 plate from new and it never missed a beat until she wrote it off last winter. She replaced it with a '64 plate cooper and it's crap by comparison. Buy yourself an early supercharged S if you really have to have a BINI. Personally I'd buy something Japanese for a daily.
The first generation Mk1 MINI (R50 & R53) were mainly designed and developed by Rover with a robust Chrysler Tritec engine plus weak Rover or strong Getrag gearboxes and while they have a few well known weak points, most are easy to fix and they are great fun to drive and early models are fast becoming future classics, especially the supercharged R53 Cooper S.

Probably the worst car I've ever owned. The fact BMW are fully aware Of all the known problems and horror stories just makes it worse.
A minor correction to Mab01uk's post above. The 2nd gen MINI had a Peugeot shared engine up until the 2010 facelift when most models went to BMW engines. Need to educate on the engine codes if you're worrried. I wouldn't say avoid the PSA engine though, in theory the fix was a modified tensioner and most should have had this fixed by MINI years ago. That said one of my Cooper S Clubmen had two replacements all in. There was a coking issue on cars that didn't do much mileage, or did mainly short journeys. I never had this either as my cars usually drove to the moon and back every year.
Have owned many MINIS, R50, R53, R56, R55, R60 and loved them all. Never owned an F56 for vaious reasons. For me the Seven is the better specced model of the two listed, for me MINIs are all about spec as low spec ones tend to look just that.
Bought an early 140k mile R50 JCW Cooper (pre Cooper S) 18 months ago as a non runner for buttons, £50 + MOT later and she's been a scream to drive since.
Edited by humph, 03 February 2019 - 11:34 PM.
Don't listen to the naysayers. Truth is all cars have issues and the MINI is no better or worse than the others. I've had an R55 Clubvan from new, drive it everyday and in 50K miles it's never missed a beet. I had the R53 GP and now have the R56 GP2 from new, which I do not drive that often & both are as much fun to drive as any Mini I've owned.
If it was my money I'd buy the Blue one.They both have the same engine. They're both Cooper S but the blue on has more options and is a higher spec.
Go test drive a Honda Jazz .
"In the world of small cars, there is nothing more reliable than the Honda Jazz – it topped the category in our latest reliability survey"
You hear horror stories about some of the cars. One of our Technicians has a Mini 1.6 Diesel and that just straight up seized. no death rattle no warning. Her boyfriend had to fight with BMW to get the engine replaced under warranty. They even at one point said it would be too expensive to replace the engine and were going to write the car off.
Common sense won in the end and they replaced the engine.
My mate Paul (he owns the Red One in my signature) had a 54 plate JCW. That was his daily and apart from being bloody small inside for three adults lift sharing it never missed a beat. It ate front wheel bearings but other than that went well. He then went and bought a 1st gen GP. Nice car and so far so good.
So you can take everything thats been said onboard and make your own mind up.
Service history and warranty though is everything, no warranty walk away.
I drive an R55 Cooper as a daily. It's had a few problems (failed sensors) that were mainly due to doing very short runs by the previous owner. My wife has an R50 which has the original 'fragile' gearbox that's now done 117k miles.
They have problems, I don't think they are as robust as some Japanese marques but they are on-par with most other Euro boxes.
We've just got an R56 Cooper S for £700 as a complete gamble as it's a non-runner. Funnily enough, pulled the cam cover off at the weekend and the top chain pensioner has broken up and thrown the timing out. We'll put some new tensions in and and see how it goes (it's helpful that my wife works for a company that breaks MINIs so no shortage of parts).
In general they are pretty good cars. They drive nicely (run-flat tyres are garbage), are somewhat easy to work on and parts are cheap(ish) and plentiful.
You're referring to the early R56 with the N14 engine. This was fixed in the later, mostly LCI cars with the N18 engine.
Edited by Curley, 03 February 2019 - 11:29 PM.
Better than a Bini in everyday and less common!!
I had one from new. Handed it back to the dealer early.
Great car but they have their own problems too. Mine and a couple of others I know had to go back under warranty to have the whole rear break setup replaced as it seized up.
If anyone is in this market I'd agree that they should consider the Abarth, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they are any better than the BMW.

Redmi Note 9 Series launching in India on March 12th
Arvind Rana· March 2, 2020
The Redmi Note series is perhaps the most popular smartphone series from Redmi & every year, we get new phones under this series. Last year we got the Redmi Note 7 series in the first half & the Redmi Note 8 series in the other. Now, Redmi is all set to launch the Note 9 series in India. The Redmi Note 9 Series was officially teased by the company today & it is launching on March 12th. So, more than a week is still left for the official launch.
The teaser reveals the design of the Quad camera setup & like the previous leak about the Note 9 series revealed, the Quad camera setup has a design similar to Huawei Mate 20 Series of 2018 i.e., the four cameras are placed in a square camera housing in the middle of the rear panel.
A week ago, the alleged specifications of the Redmi Note 9 series leaked & while we still aren't sure if those specs are correct, they are definitely impressive for phones in the budget segment.
As per that leak, the Note 9 has Snapdragon 720G SOC, 4,000mAH battery, 48MP + 8MP + 2MP + 2MP Quad cameras, & a Full-HD+ Punch-hole display. The Note 9 Pro could feature MediaTek Dimensity 800 SOC, 5,000mAh battery & a 64MP primary camera on the back.
The above image was posted by Manu Kumar Jain on Twitter & he said the Redmi Note 9 is somewhere in the image. If you look closely, there is a phone partially visible under the newspaper & we are sure that it's the upcoming Redmi Note 9 since the other devices on the table are the phones that have been launched already by Redmi in the past.
