Classification of travel time as working time
Working time in terms of the German Working Hours Act (ArbZG) is the time from the start to the finish of work. A business trip is defined as a journey to a place outside the regular place of work where a work assignment is to be performed. As simple as that. However: Does that kind of journey count as »working time«?
Does it constitute working time?
- On the outset, clearly »travel to work«, i.e. the journey to and from the home to the regular place of work, does not constitute working time.
- Likewise, there's an easy answer for employment contracts which stipulate driving as a major part of the work performance, as, for example, in the case of field staff or professional drivers. Travel time in this context constitutes working time in terms of the ArbZG.
In other respects, according to the German Federal Labor Court, travel time counts as working time in terms of the ArbZG if during this time the employee is »put to task« in a manner directed not by him- or herself and predominantly in the interest of the employer. Accordingly, the specific instructions of the employer and also the choice of transport are decisive factors.
If the employer instructs the employee to perform work during business travel, this will be working time (example: instruction by the employer to respond to work email or to attend a phone conference).
Where no such instructions are given further details come into consideration:
- If the employee is using public transport he or she will have the opportunity to use this time for recreation and personal interests. This opportunity is enough for this business trip not to be counted as working time. This also applies is the employee voluntarily performs work in the course of the journey.
- However, the situation is different if the employee is driving a car. In this case the (abstract) opportunity for recreation is missing, as the employee has to concentrate on the traffic throughout. Such a business trip accordingly counts as working time, provided the employer has instructed the employee to use a car. Note: According to the ArbZG, the time spent by a non-driving passenger in the same vehicle is not counted as working time.
- However, where the employer has given the employee freedom of choice with regard to the type of vehicle, travel time is not counted as working time, as the employee – at least theoretically – had the opportunity to rest.
Consequence: The German Working Hours Act must be observed with regard to business travel
Where business travel is counted as working time in terms of the ArbZG its provisions must be complied with, such as a maximum of 10 hours per working day and rest time of 11 hours after the end of work.
Must travel time be paid for?
If travel time is counted as working time under the ArbZG, do employees need to be paid for it as well? As a basic principle, working time according to the ArbZG is not necessarily the same as the working time to be remunerated according to the contract of employment.
The following applies: Working time according to the ArbZG must be remunerated. This specifically also applies to business travel during normal business working hours.
Business travel during normal business hours which does not count as working time in terms of the ArbZG according to the aforementioned critera must likewise be remunerated. However, where such travel takes place outside normal business hours it only needs to be remunerated if this has been agreed individually or by way of a company agreement or collective agreement. Where no such agreement is in place a claim for remuneration only arises if the employee could reasonably expect remuneration for the time spent travelling outside his or her normal business working hours. There is no general legal rule which specifies that travel time must be remunerated in all cases. Particularly senior managers with above-average salaries would generally be held not to be entitled to a reasonable expectation to be remunerated for such travel time.
Employer's options of organization
Employers should not leave the question of remuneration of travel time open but instead put transparent agreements in place in order to avoid lack of clarity and the associated potential for conflict. In addition, employers should set clear rules about the way in which the provisions of the ArbZG can be complied with with regard to travel for work. This concerns, for example, instructions with regard to the means of transport and the timing of outward and return journeys to meetings off site. It is usually also helpful to set clear rules of conduct for the case that a return from a business trip cannot be achieved without exceeding the limits set by the ArbZG.
Such transparent rules ensure that a business trip does not become a leap in the dark for any of the parties involved.

Estimate that the flames have consumed over a thousand hectares.
It was reported that a week ago, a fire started in the western area of Canaima National Park. Outbreaks of fire in the National Park have been extended until the Auyantepui.
Apparently, the work of extinguishing the fire was hampered because the National Parks Institute (Inparques-in spanish) does not have the air support for the mobilization of personnel. Also the drought and the strong winds hampered the work.
They say that in some places as the Well of Happiness or Ucaima the fire calms down and reborn.
The fires in the Canaima National Park have been extended until the Auyantepui, where the Angel falls is, the highest in the world.
Despite the intensity, the wildland firefighters who moved from last week to the western area of the fragile territory, have two days without fighting the fire due to the lack of air support.
The coordinator of the National Parks Institute (Inparques) in the western sector of Canaima and secretary of the Indian captaincy, Josval Simon said that on Sunday was not met with any work of extinction, as the helicopter with the Bambi Bucket system in the Region Integral Defense Guyana (REDI), retired on Sunday, while the aircraft of the company Corpoelec which provided support left on Saturday afternoon, because it ran out of authorized flying hours.
Simon said that the fires have increased by high temperatures and highlights by its magnitude those in the Avak sector, on the northern fringe of the Caroni River to the community of Las Bonitas, the Well of Happiness on the road to Angel Falls and Antavari.
The pilot Raul Arias flew this Monday the affected areas and watched another source of fire rising in Auyantepui, of great biodiversity.
"All the wildland firefighters are in Canaima but we have no air support and by canoe is required to mobilize a large logistics, plus there are guidelines that prohibit firefighters overnight in areas near fire for safety," Simon said.
He reported that on Tuesday they will move to the Well of Happiness in several canoes at six in the morning to try with community volunteers make a firewall that allows stopping the spread of the flames in the Canaima National Park.
Explained that the study by the Civil Protection Department with global positioning systems (GPS ) allowed to determine that the fire has affected some 1,250 hectares.
"With the new outbreaks affected some 1,500 hectares overall in the city," Simon said.
Meanwhile, tourism and ecological excursions to Angel Falls as well as the Orchid Island and the Well of Happiness, are restricted by drought, lack of navigability of rivers and fires.
"Wildland firefighters from the capital of the Republic, the same state of Bolivar and San Ignacio, will withdraw on Tuesday due to the lack of logistical support and because they approach the presidential elections scheduled for Sunday April 14," he said.
He also highlighted that the fire and the thick smoke generated is causing respiratory problems in adults and children of Canaima.
On the impact of this situation, Rodolfo Castillo, biologist, who is executive director and president of the organization Bioparques reported that these fires cause damage for which recovery may take at least 50 years under favorable conditions.
"The soils in this area are poor, vegetation has little food and when burned they are vulnerable to the next rainfall, wind, and so their recovery in the best conditions, it could take 50 to 100 years," he says.
On the performance of the state and its institutions, recommended that this should devote greater efforts to prevent and fight fires, as it is a biological loss "immeasurable and invaluable."
Fire alters ecosystem dynamics, forests are seriously affected and although they may have a speedy recovery, sometimes never recover. I believe, and this time, they must have all efforts to address this problem because we are leaving valuable biodiversity to lose. "

Strategies for Generalizing Findings in Survey Research
Surveys are the most common method of data collection used by Extension professionals, agricultural educators, and researchers engaged in social and behavioral sciences. Rarely do they get 100% response for their studies. Then, the question is what do you do to enhance the external validity of your study? Following certain procedures, making logical choices, and providing clear explanations, you can enhance the external validity of your study. This article suggests strategies to enhance the external validity of your study. It is hoped that Extension professionals can benefit from this and interpret results of their research with both clarity and caution.
Extension professionals and survey researchers are concerned about generalizing findings because of low response rate obtained in surveys. Several researches have examined the issue of low response rates in surveys and its impact on generalizing findings. According to Wiseman (2003), findings obtained in surveys that have low response are questionable because little is know about whether non-respondents differ from respondents (p.1).
Lindner and Wingenbach (2002), in their review of Research in Brief articles published in the Journal of Extension from 1995 through 1999, found that non-response error was a threat to external validity in 82% of the articles. Further, they also found that in 80% of the articles, no attempts to control for non-response were mentioned. Shinn, Baker, and Briers (2007) studied response patterns in E-mail surveys and concluded that response rate issues in survey research are complex and multifaceted (p.8) and are likely to be influenced by a variety of factors.
What do you do to enhance the external validity (to whom your findings/results apply) of your study? And to whom can you generalize the findings of the study? Can we generalize to the population, the sample, the subjects who responded and/or provided complete data, or should we generalize the findings at all? These are the frequent questions faced by Extension professionals, faculty, graduate students, and researchers engaged in survey research.
However, if you follow certain procedures in handling the data, you can enhance the external validity of your study. Here are some key points to consider about generalizing the findings in survey research:
- The population and sample;
- Response rates;
- Comparison of early, late, and non-respondents; and
- The results of comparison.
Population or Sample
Determine how the subjects for the study were selected. Is it a census or a sample? What type of sample was used: random (probability) or non random (non-probability)? Knowing how the subjects were selected will help determine whether or not we can generalize the findings.
Response Rate
The next step is to know how many subjects responded to the survey. Calculate the response rate of the survey. Suppose you get 100% response, the question of generalizing the findings does not arise because everyone responded. But if it is a sample, you may have to generalize to a population. That is not always the case. You rarely get 100% response. If you get 68% response, you should question why the other 32% did not respond to the survey. Are the data valid only for 68% of the subjects who responded, or are there procedures that you can use a 68% return rate for generalizing the findings to the remaining 32%? Miller and Smith (1983) and recently Lindner, Murphy, and Briers (2001) provide answers to this dilemma.
Comparing Early, Late, and Non-Respondents
Identify subjects who responded to the first mailing within the deadline date, and label them as early. Similarly, identify all other subjects who responded to subsequent mailings, and label them as late. After the data collection is complete, identify and label the non-respondents. According to Miller and Smith (1983), non-respondents tend to be similar to late respondents in responding to surveys. Therefore, compare the early and late respondent groups on key variables (Figure 1). If you find no significant differences between early and late respondents, you can statistically conclude that non-respondents are perhaps similar to late respondents and thus generalize the findings to the population. The other accepted procedure is to follow-up with a telephone call to 15-20% of the non-respondents, and collect data from them on key variables. Then do a comparison between early and late, early and non-respondents, and late and non-respondents.
Figure 1.
Logic of Comparing Early, Late, and Non-Respondents
If the comparison indicates no differences between these three groups of respondents, then you can generalize the findings to the population. On the other hand, if you find significant differences, you cannot generalize the findings to the population. Therefore, use your judgment as to whether or not to include the differed variables for final analysis. Normally, the differed variables are eliminated from further analysis. Explain why the subjects differed on the key variables. Otherwise, provide justification for including the differed variables in the final analysis.
Use independent t-test to compare early and late respondents; early and non-respondents; and late and non-respondents. Use ANOVA if you want to compare all three (early, late, and non respondents) response types and conduct a post-hoc analysis to determine group (early, late, and non respondents) differences.
Lindner, Murphy, and Briers (2001) suggested using "days to respond" as a regression variable for handling non-response error. In the SPSS program, create a variable for "days to respond," and code them as a continuous variable (for example, 5, 20, 32 days, etc.). Use the "days to respond" in the regression equation in which primary variables of interest are regressed on the "days to respond" variable. "If the regression model is not significant, then it can be assumed that non-respondents do not differ from respondents" (Lindner, Murphy, & Briers, 2001, p.6). Table 1 summarizes the strategies for generalizing findings in survey research.
|Sample Type
|Compared Early/Late/Non-Respondents
|Results of Comparison
|Generalize Findings To
|Only to those responded
|No difference
|The Census (All)
|Random sample
|Random sample
|No difference
|Non-random sample
|Cannot generalize
|* somewhat limits the external validity of the study
Conclusions and Implications
Following certain accepted procedures, making logical choices, and providing appropriate explanations and justifications for following non-respondents would help describe the data accurately and thus enhance the external validity of the study. Extension professionals, survey researchers, and graduate students would benefit from following sound research methods and procedures.
Using strategies suggested in this article and describing procedures used to handle non-response error will not only enhance the external validity of the study, but also improve the criteria, standards, and level of rigor in research carried out by Extension professionals. The decision to generalize research findings to the accessible population or general population needs to be clarified in research articles so that readers could interpret results with caution and for the purpose of replicating these studies in similar and/or other settings.

Books that receive much hype excite me and yet intimidate me at the same time. Because, as with reading all other books, there's that element of expectation and an element of possible disappointment. There's always that chance that even though a lot of people love a book, it doesn't automatically mean you'll like it too.
It's partly reassuring in that a lot of readers obviously loved the book…
At the very least, you know that a lot of people have read and loved the book so there must be some truly remarkable things about it, right? I can find this really helpful especially when I'm looking for new books to add to my TBR list. If a lot of people have enjoyed reading a book, the merit is there no matter where the readers may find it, since a book can be enjoyed through so many elements of the story.
Is there such a thing as an over-hyped book?
I'm wondering if there is such a thing as an over-hyped book? Because when it all comes down to it, it's a matter of subjectivity, right? Readers would enjoy what they would enjoy regardless of the hype. The hype does come from the enjoyment of the book. I think it will be a fine line depending on how you look or how you enjoy a certain book.
When you're part of the minority…
I'm thinking we've all been a part of this at one point or another. There's this super popular and much-loved book or series. It may even have its own fandom. Unfortunately, you're just not feeling it like they do. I know I've been in this situation before, the most recent one is for Sarah J Maas' Throne of Glass series. I wanted so much to love this series but it was just okay for me. But I do know that this series has a lot of fan following and I completely respect that. Because there's something really special when a reader can't help but spread his or her love of a book to other people because they wanted to share the wonderful experience they've had while reading the book. And I completely get that.
What are your thoughts on these…
How do you feel about much-hyped books? How much of your decision to read a book depend on how much hype it has? Or does it even factor in your decision as a reader? Have you been in that situation where a lot of people you know loved a book but you weren't just feeling the love? 🙂
Let me know what you guys think… 🙂

Emails: White House, State Department coordinated with journalist on national security leaks
White House and State Department officials cooperated extensively on background with a New York Times journalist during the period that he broke confidential national security information in a series of leaks that prompted outrage from lawmakers, according to unearthed 2011 and 2012 emails.
The nonprofit organization Freedom Watch, which obtained the internal State Department emails through a Freedom of Information Act request, believes that the Obama administration carried out the leaks to bolster a tough image for itself on Iran.
Then-Acting Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs Michael Hammer and other State Department employees arranged background interviews between New York Times chief Washington correspondent David Sanger and State Department officials between December 2011 and March 2012 for Sanger's 2012 book "Confront and Conceal: Obama's Secret Wars and Surprising Use of American Power."
Sanger's book included leaks of confidential national security information, including details of the computer worm Stuxnet that was used in a cyberattack against Iran. Sanger linked the worm to a U.S.-Israeli intelligence operation called "Operation Olympic Games" in a June 2012 New York Times article.
White House officials, including then-National Security Advisor Tom Donilon, began cooperating with Sanger before December 12, 2011.

Diwali Special-Carrot-Halwa-Diwalicious-recipes
Posted on September 30, 2017 by AC No commentsby
Lifestyles change but traditions still keep going strong in Asian households.Beat the rain or sun, young or old, everyone gets involved in making the Festival an occasion to celebrate food, fun and enjoy sweet treats without feeling guilty.
Diwali is one of the most favourite festivals celebrated in India, everyone looks forward to some indulgence and an excuse to party and eat! This is a five day festival that can last for as long as you like in India.The entire household is busy doing chores that they don't do the rest of the 11 months! There is noise from crackers and tea lights or oil lamps lit, they are sweets and savouries too! I love to treat myself and my family with this feeling that food has to be its best and party with no guilt and that means it has to be healthy and fun! So this Diwali I decided to modify my traditional recipe for a new one which pleased my daughter who is a chocoholic! Delicious Diwali Recipes are so many to choose and every has their favourites, perhaps it is one of the most enjoyable thing to do in October .
Festival of lights is celebrated with exchange of gifts and presents often include home made sweet and savoury to your friends and family to mark the win of good over evil, light over darkness and to have a good hope in the coming year. I am sure this year around you will enjoy cooking the healthiest Gajjar Ka halwa ever and a sure showstopper sweet dish if you are hosting a party this Diwali.
I was extremely delighted when the ASDA team called me to ask me if I could come up with a recipe for their Diwali range in stores and blog about it. Given so many options from sweets to savoury and also being mindful of allergies and vegetarians, and of course my gluten free friends! I was dreaming of recipes apart from trying it out with different options in my kitchen. A quick visit to ASDA made me realise that they have a fantastic range of Asian stuff and I could shop and cook them in minutes. So I came up with this idea that we even if we don't like nuts, we can decorate it with edible flowers, if we are vegans we could substitute it for almond milk or coconut or rice milk. No bake means one less thing to do!
My No bake tart with Classic Carrot Halwa which Asians love to indulge in during festivities but with a healthy version for a Diwali Recipe is easy to make at home and celebrate the festivities with total indulgence!
This recipe has a treat for all and keeping in mind the tradition, the health freaks and the sweet tooth. The Tart is made with Almond flour and coconut oil and no refined sugar. Suitable for vegans and GlutenFree. ( You could use Walnut flour or Chestnut flour too)
The filling is made with Organic Carrots if you fancied it, take a trip down to ASDA to get all recipes for making this Indian Diwali Asian dessert recipe Carrot Halwa or Gajjar Halwa as we know it. It's a traditional recipe with a modern take on it. A definite show stopper at a Dinner Table this Diwali.
This is nutty based dessert filled with all the richness of cream, Ghee, nuts and Chocolate. Decadent treat, no stress, No-Bake and a recipe to suit all palette. With a one stop hop to ASDA you can even get the grated carrots from the food and vegetable section to save time. There are alternatives for Vegans in this recipe who may choose to substitute this for coconut cream for condensed milk, Almond milk, Rice milk available at specialists shops and some now available in ASDA too. Taste may vary but its contentment for all!
It is really a no bake recipe,less energy to wipe down messy tables making tart cases. Me I love to bake and cook but hate washing up like everyone does, if chopping wasn't good enough I don't want to land up using too many things to complicate the cooking process. So simple is the way to go. A visit to the local supermarket fishing for ingredients for this recipe wasn't hard as ASDA now stocks all the asian condiments, you just have to make a list and head over or even better is their online shopping which is so simple.http://www.asda.co.uk
Taking into consideration the only time I really spent was when cooking the carrots, which in my opinion you need a large chunk of patience to make sure that you don't overcook the carrots and burn them.
So, Tart was literally made in minutes measuring it all up in one pot and binding them together and pressing them down in then tart cases. You can do a big one, just in case you want everyone to look at your masterpiece after the heavy meal.But I do like small portions and fancied making them in small Tart cases.
While you are waiting for the tart cases to be chilled. Crack on with cooking the carrots. You can get all variety of Carrots these days from organic to grow your own or even better head over to ASDA vegetable section where you can find readily chopped carrots for you. You can even order it online.Traditionally speaking, we use to cook with red carrots which give them a very rich colour, but if you are not the fussy kind, I assure you these carrots work just the same. Peel them and put them into a blitzer if you have one, which do veg chopping even more better, ASDA stocks some of them too.Have a peek into their Home and Kitchen section and order one online. But if you are happy to do the old school way of grated it, go ahead and use them.
I used mine with my kitchen aid which has some different settings to chop and grate and I got it all done in few minutes.
I did forget to take pictures while I was cooking the carrots as I was concentrating on not burning them! if that makes sense! I did not want my IPhone cooking too!
Take a broad pan to cook the carrots. Add milk and some cardamom powder and heat it for at a low heat to infuse the flavour of Cardamom(2-3 min). Add the grated Carrot and cook them till the milk disappears from the pan. Add the Ghee/Butter I used the Desi Ghee or you can use the ASDA range of organic unsweetened butter/low fat version and melt it down .
You just need a watchful eye to make sure that you cook it through and you can see the Carrot turning a bit sticky on the sides and getting brown too. Add the condensed milk and the rest of the full fat milk( Vegans- if you are using coconut milk or almond milk).
Cool it down once cooked and put them into the Tart cases and you can either chill them or serve it warm, but I reckon its an individual choice, but I choose to chill it in the fridge.Left the garnishing for later!
As you can see in my pictures which was taken after I sat down with my Nikon D3100 and got my studio shot. I am obsessed with presentation and I believe that our eyes speak and you must always leave them to speak and take in that feeling I want to eat. My garnishing was very simple but rich in tradition as Diwali festivities are always with nuts,cream,sweetness. I opted to use some pistachios,and almond flakes not making them to heavy as wanted it to be light and enjoyable. Garnished it with some Mediterranean rose petals which was available at ASDA to my surprise! I was delighted to use it in my presentation. Crush the pistachios and sprinkle them gently over the Carrot Halwa and few rose petals to give it an exotic look!
Asians love this combination with some ice cream usually and now you are spoilt for choice with ASDA's range of ice-cream flavours. But I think the recipe is good on its own without any extra flavours and is best enjoyed in this version. My chocoholics at home were happy and so were the older generation as I blended the traditional effect of Desi Ghee,nuts, milk and Carrots to make a scrumptious Chocolate Almond Tart Gajjar Ka Halwa AKA Carrot Halwa. My take on the traditional recipe giving it a little tweak serving it in a Tart. So enjoy foodies and I am sure you will enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making this in my kitchen for Diwali. Head over to my recipe section for the recipe.
Its got-2 b Diwalicious!!

What may become a yearly tradition is set to hit the water July 18.
From 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., residents are invited to grab their tubes, kayaks, canoes, or stand-up paddleboards and join in the Poky Portneuf Paddle. At the event, attendees are invited to float the Portneuf River from Taysom Rotary Park to Centennial Park. More experienced floaters can float from the Edson Fichter Nature Area to Centennial Park. Free shuttle service between the parks will be available.
"Community members should come and give floating the Portneuf in Pocatello a try," said Hannah Sanger, Science and Environment Administrator for the City of Pocatello. "It is beautiful and fun, and it's right here in our backyards."
Participants are also invited to decorate their floating device of choice for a chance to win a BBQ grill, as well as gift certificates to Snake River Fly and Barrie's Ski and Sports. Prizes will also be awarded for Best Sandal Tan Lines, Biggest Floatilla, and Oldest Floater.
In addition to the time on the water, the event will feature live music from the Luddites and food truck vendors Thanks A Brunch, The Sand Trap, Lemon Smashers, and Hawaii Hua at Centennial Park from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
"After the event, I hope that people are inspired to come float on their own," Sanger said. "It's magical down in the river and after spending some time floating the Portneuf in Pocatello, we're looking forward to community members sharing their ideas for improving the river with us."
Attendees are asked to park in the parking lot at Pocatello Community Charter School.
There will be a limited number of free, loaner life vests available at the event but attendees are asked to bring their own safety gear.
The Poky Portneuf Paddle is sponsored by ISU Credit Union, NeighborWorks Pocatello, and the City of Pocatello.

Malignant growth and retroactive heterotrophicity in modern urban agglomerations
Warren M Hern, University of Colorado at Boulder
By 2030, 60% of the global population will live in urban agglomerations (UN, 2005) and will continue drawing energy and other resources such as fresh water from distant areas. Odum (1989) describes cities as heterotrophic, parasitic ecosystems since they consume more energy than they produce. Walled medieval towns drew their energy resources from surrounding farms, and even Amazonian tribal settlements depend on gardens and game outside the village. But modern cities now display retroactive heterotrophicity that extends back in time 300 million years as they tap fossil fuels that have their origins in carboniferous swamps. As global energy consumption is expanding at a rate of at least 2.3% per year, requiring increasing exploitation of hitherto undeveloped ecosystems, this heterotrophicity has all the characteristics of a malignant process. The most significant characteristic of malignancy is uncontrolled growth, and that is displayed in global energy use by urban populations.

Beware! Capitaller has stopped paying! Do not invest there!
Hello everyone! As the business week gradually comes to a close, I have one remaining new program to discuss with you. It's a long term project this time called Capitaller which you may remember I gave a brief introduction to earlier in the week. I don't mind telling you I have some mixed feelings about some aspects of the program, feelings of nostalgia about some others, but overall I still think Capitaller is interesting and is likely to find its own place in the market. Mostly what struck me was that Capitaller is the first program I remember for a couple of years now to not run off any script. It was never I suppose exactly common, but nor was it a rare or unusual thing either. Several programs operated like that, Capitaller is just the first I've seen myself for a while. You just joined, the admin had his own database somewhere else, and you were paid from that. Anyway, more about that in a few moments, let's start by seeing what's on offer and whether you think you have a place in your portfolio for Capitaller.
There are four investment plans in Capitaller – the main reason you are probably reading this review – and are in turn split into two categories. Three plans make one single payment on expiry, and the other two make daily interest payments per business day. They vary in length from 15 to 70 business days, or 3 to 14 calendar weeks.
The minimum cost of joining Capitaller is $5. This gets you into the first plan, which offers members a daily interest rate of 3% paid between Monday and Friday only. Over the course of the 70 business day term that eventually adds up to 210% back on your investment, better than double your money. Capitaller are including your principal as part of your payments and will not be returning it in a separate transaction. Therefore the final return consists of your own money back plus 110% net profit.
If we take a practical example of how that might look in monetary terms, let's say you were to join Capitaller with $100. Every day from Monday to Friday for the following 14 weeks they will pay you back $3. That allows you to break-even after 34 business days and so make it impossible to lose anything from that point on. All remaining payments therefore are pure net profit, and should stop only when Capitaller have given you $210 in total. That's $100 that belonged to you in the first place, plus another $110 for joining. There's an upper limit of $2,499 placed on investments here.
As the next daily paying plans only get started at $2,500 I doubt very much any of you are interested, but just for the record I'll just run through the numbers for you anyway so you know what they are. Capitaller offer 4% per business day on amounts starting from $5,000 and no maximum limit. That's 280% principal included or 180% net profit. As I said already, the investment term stands at 70 business days during which you earn your profit.
With a $100 minimum price tag Plan number 3 wouldn't be out of the question for a lot of people on financial grounds anyway, but if it's something you can easily afford the real reason I suggest passing is because it's unrealistic. The term is 70 business days but only one single payment is made on expiry. That's an awfully long time in the HYIP industry to have your money sitting in someone else's pocket doing nothing for you. The return being offered by Capitaller to entice this money out of you 1677%. It may as well be a million per cent as far as I'm concerned because this simply isn't obtainable. The double danger of a plan like this is not only are you likely to lose your principal, you need to think about the money you might have earned investing it elsewhere for shorter daily terms instead of waiting around doing nothing for 14 weeks while Capitaller are holding it for you. Anyway, just my own opinion, if you think differently you are free to do what you like with your own money. Capitaller have no maximum limit on how much you can spend in this plan.
Plan number four opens at $200 and also has no stated maximum. The term shortens in half to 35 business days, or 7 calendar weeks. One single payment which includes your principal is offered on expiry, amounting to 1457%.
The fifth plan starts with a minimum deposit of $250 and runs for 20 business days. Again just one payment is made on expiry, and the rate is 1210% with principal included.
And finally just to complete the picture, plan number six opens at a $400 minimum. The term is a lot shorter this time, which if anything makes it even less realistic. 15 business days is the expiry date, at which point Capitaller offer a single payment of 1177%, principal included.
If any of those inspire you to part with your money, the next thing we need to discuss are what payment processors Capitaller are dealing with. There are five options open to you in total, with PerfectMoney, Payeer, NixMoney, NixMoney, and AdvCash as the more traditional style handlers and BitCoin for those favoring a more modern digital e-currency. An interesting feature to Capitaller is that with no real members account area as you would see in most programs, it follows that there is no requirement for you to log in and request your payment. Capitaller just do it automatically every day, starting from the day after you join. All you need to do is sit back and wait. Just one thing to keep in mind is the fact that payments only happen on business days, so if you join Capitaller on a Friday or Saturday then don't expect anything to happen until Monday.
Looking in to (what there is of) the more technical aspects of the Capitaller website such as design and security and so on, it's easy to see why some folks might have some mixed feelings here. You see, the Capitaller website is as I said a throwback to what was more common in the HYIP industry some years back when programs that didn't run off any kind of script and consequently didn't have any back office or members area. You just make your investment and imagine the admin working from an offline database. If you're not used to this approach then sure, it might make keeping track of your deposit a little bit more challenging – I mean who remembers off the top of their heads the exact day and time they joined every single program – so make sure to record everything from the day you join, each individual payment, and your expiry date. The Capitaller website also doesn't feature any secure SSL connection. Again, without any actual account areas to hack this becomes less and less of an issue. My own concern is that not everyone appreciates this and might think the absence of an SSL certificate (regardless of whether its needed or not) makes Capitaller look like bit of a cheap operation. Hosting is on a shared server by GeniusGuard with anti-DDoS protection provided by CloudProtection.
If you have any further questions for the Capitaller admin or payment issues you need him to clear up then there's a couple of ways you can get in touch. First of all you can just e-mail the admin directly at the listed address. The second is a bit more unorthodox, and is again something I don't remember seeing in the HYIP industry for a few years now. Capitaller have their own online forum, given over entirely to their own members/investors being able to discuss the program with each other and its admin. The forum website is hosted on a separate domain and server to the main site, so I imagine if anything goes wrong or it's taken down for maintenance for example the channels of communication remain open and the admin can keep everyone up to date. You'll also find a general FAQ thread on the forum, so if you have any specific questions you don't see answered elsewhere just go right ahead and post it yourself. Fans of social media networks will also be able to keep track of Capitaller by following their Facebook and Twitter profiles.
And that's about it really. If anyone is interested in what sort of alleged business activities are supposedly backing the whole thing up, I know experienced industry players will know better than to go down that road but just for the record all the usual HYIP cliches are wheeled out. ForEx, stocks, bonds, hedge funds, gold, and so on. Nothing you can ever research and verify for yourself and not a lot of evidence presented to help you even if you wanted to waste your time trying. For the sake of industry newbies though I should remind you that even if any of this were true, that's no guarantee that Capitaller know how to make it profitable. So that means treating Capitaller as you would anything else in the HYIP industry – a form of high risk gambling. Always set yourself sensible spending limits that you can comfortably afford to lose and easily recoup from other sources if things don't go your way, and if joining Capitaller at all then try to keep them as a smaller part of a wider more diverse portfolio.
I think that just about gives a fair, balanced, and unbiased description of the facts about Capitaller, so what do you guys think? Before we move on to the news section please take a second to answer the following opinion poll, remembering that it's 100% anonymous:
Following the review of BitSolar posted on MNO on Tuesday (click here to read), I have to emphasize again that the minimum you have to have in your balance to receive a withdrawal to your BitCoin wallet instantly should be BTC 0.001 (that is equivalent of about $0.6 at the current exchange rate). If you try to withdraw a lesser amount than that it will still be allowed by the script, but your withdrawal request will not get past pending status. It seems that the admin of BitSolar does not monitor such transactions closely and are therefore unlikely to be processed, so you have to cancel your withdrawal in that case and wait until the required BTC 0.001 minimum is accumulated in your account and then make another request. Also remember that you're absolutely flexible with your deposit that can be as low as BTC 0.01 (the current equivalent of about $6) and that after 24 hours you're free to withdraw any part of the deposit or the whole thing with absolutely no fees charged. Thanks to this feature many investors of BitSolar have been in profit from the program paying from 0.125% to 0.25% profit hourly which has been on the MNO monitor's Premium List for four full days.
I sincerely hope that more people will be in profits with BitSolar, but the current messages posted on the both news page of the site and sent to the investors might make some people really confused as to the status of the program assigned by some unknown monitors. I'll re-post all the updates (one of them actually includes the link to the recent review on MNO) later on, but as the admin's level of English isn't great I'd like to explain how I understood the issue after closer examination of the BitSolar thread on the popular Russian language MMGP forum. So, the admin of some HYIP monitor "allegedly" has his money stolen from his BitSolar account (it was an insignificant amount anyway) and the money was transferred to another BitCoin account. But after you join BitSolar a change of BitCoin is simply impossible by the individual member without the prior manual approval from the admin. So it was concluded by the monitor that the admin of BitSolar must be behind this transaction. Even to assume that would be rather odd as the alleged stolen amount was tiny and didn't prevent the admin of BitSolar paying much higher amounts to everyone else in instant mode. This is covered in the first update given below, while the second strangely thanked the same monitor for highlighting a spelling mistake in the promotional banners of BitSolar which was quite obvious in my opinion and wasn't in need of any clarification. In any case, for that "service" this minnow-monitor was promised a bonus which failed to materialize, so he has changed the status of BitSolar over a personal grudge and not because of missing payments. For me it all makes no sense at all, as such petty-minded behavior like that can affect any program's performance. But given that investors can withdraw their deposit from BitSolar at any time after 24 hours with absolutely no fees and the fact that the program has been paying instantly thus far (except for the afore-mentioned "issue" with that monitor) it should not affect BitSolar much. After all, it's only up to the admin when he decides to stop paying and since there are instant payouts in BitSolar it will be immediately obvious when the program scams. So far I have had no reason to doubt the program and I keep my fingers crossed that it will survive this libel, and the admin will deliver on his promise to keep paying. In the very last email the admin also refuses to comment on the above mentioned issue on any thread of public HYIP forums and just reiterates BitSolar still pays fine to everyone:
BitSolar found that some wicked monitor will request to pay advertising, if we do not obey will be listed as a SCAM. Please do not worry, BitSolar has continuing stable growth from the started opening, thanks for your support and affirmation, we will continue to strive to let you get maximum profit.
In this very grateful MNO loyal comment."
"Please read this message
We are grateful to "allhyips" find our banners has a mistake.
We will fix it at tomorrow.
Thank you so much."
"Important Message
We are very regrettable,"allhyips" is a greedy monitor and blackmailer. He found banners mistake and extort Bitsolar add bonus to him, limit a day time. This is extort. BitSolar will not compromise.
BitSolar found that much greedy monitor will request to pay advertising, if we do not obey will be listed as a SCAM. Please do not worry, BitSolar will continuing stable growth from the started opening, thanks for your support and affirmation, we will continue to strive to let you get maximum profit.
In this very grateful MNO loyal comment.
Have a nice day!"
BitSolar will not make any comments as an individual on the forum.
We don't have any problem for payments.
We still normal payments.
Have a nice day!"
I suspect that the admin of Brifex tried to pull some tricks last night when there was only a couple of hours left before the server time changes to the following day to show investors that the company has total control of the cashflow and that no more funds are needed. This message was sent to everyone shortly before midnight:
Hello, dear investors!
Today's daily limit on deposits peaked. You can make a deposit tomorrow after 00:00 (server time). Server time is displayed in the dashboard (upper left corner). The maximum possible amount at the moment is: 64$
Best regards, "Brifex" team."
I've seen this done before in a few other HYIPs. And now it seems Brifex also impose a maximum on how much a single investor can deposit in a single day. I believe that every HYIP needs as much money as possible to pay the existing investors, and Brifex is no exception. The only possible reason for this stunt is to make investors think that the company really trades with investors' money somewhere and they could not digest bigger amounts, just like real investment companies. Such a limit might encourage some gullible newbies to come back tomorrow and collect more funds before depositing, thus giving Brifex some leverage so it's quite a smart psychological nuance that may prove a winner. I suspect we would see more of such "limit is exceeded" messages in the future. More interesting and unorthodox features should be also implemented in the future thanks to the totally custom made script Brifex is using.
By the way, as Brifex has been on MNO for almost three weeks and was added to my Premium List after the first week online. That means the first investors who joined the 110% after 10 calendar days plan should be in good profit by now, possibly even completing two cycles. Those of you who chose to join the daily paying 5% for 30 business days plan should also be close to the break-even point. The ultimate advantage of joining Brifex for the lazy and forgetful is that profits are processed directly to the e-currency account you made a deposit with in the first place. At the moment, there are four payment methods you may use in order to make an investment in Brifex starting from only $20 – PerfectMoney, Payeer, BitCoin, and AdvCash. You can read more about all the main features and investment plans offered by Brifex in the detailed review posted here.
Another great feature of Brifex is the option to read the website in your own language. The current selection is pretty extensive and the admin and team do their best to accommodate as many languages as possible with Vietnamese being the last one added. In order to switch between languages just click on the language tab located on the top right-hand corner of the home page of the Brifex website and choose between English, Russian, German, French, Chinese, and Vietnamese. Simple as that, guys! The addition of Vietnamese as the sixth language was the subject of the latest short update from Brifex re-posted below:
Dear investors!
BRIFEX Administration has translated to Vietnamese language site. At the moment, we can firmly position itself as an international company.
Best regards, "Brifex" team."
And while on the subject of languages an idea occurred to me for a new question for the MNO TalkBack page. Really, how do you think the professional language translations are important for a site's development and further growth? Are they contributing greatly to expanding the membership or are merely just a tool for an admin to grab easy headlines? Please think about that and answer the following questions that will be available for another week or so on the MNO TalkBack page:
What is your opinion of professionally translated multi-lingual HYIPs?
1) They're usually of higher quality and attract bigger worldwide audience
2) They add new languages for no other reason than to make headlines
3)They are of no use as the majority of investors only need English anyway
For the second question relating to that same subject I want to ask your personal opinion on how different language versions influence your decision to join a particular program:
If an HYIP is available in my native language I will…
1) Most likely deposit there
2) It will not affect my decision to invest or not
3) English is enough for me personally
Now that you have something to think about and vote for over the next few days, let's have a look at the final results of the last poll that ran for the last week or so. I was curious to know just what percentage of my readers capitalize on the volatile exchange rates between BitCoins and traditional currencies, and the opportunities this gives you to earn by buying cheaply and selling expensively. The exact question was:
Do you use BitCoin to trade for profit like ForEx?
Out of the four possible answers one didn't get any votes, so I'll just omit it when checking the results. From the remaining three options the majority of readers – exactly 58% – said: "No, either I'm not interested or don't like the risk". Quite a conservative approach for HYIP players I think, but perhaps the only reasonable one if you don't like risking money (as BitCoin prices can go either up and down and no one can predict the general trend anyway) or only use BitCoin as a tool of investing in HYIPs. An equal split of the vote – 21% each – went to two very different variants like "Yes, I do so regularly and make decent profits from it" and "I'd like to, but can't afford the resources to make it profitable enough". Two sides of the same coin, so to say. People who can allocate some resources to make profitable BitCoin trading happen just do so and make profits, and people who are cautious enough and do not like to keep any substantial amounts of money in totally anonymous BitCoin wallets (due to possible hacking and other online threats or just not willing to take risks) are just sitting on the sidelines watching. Well, from the final results of the poll it is seen that only a few people are currently involved in BitCoin trading. It's totally OK though because this activity is certainly not for everyone, and you have to be more involved in the whole process and do it on a consistent basis allocating lots of time and financial resources for this type of trading to be a success, something not many of us have at our disposal.
Here is the list of the programs from my monitor that paid me for the last 48 hours:
From MNO Sticky list: –
From MNO Premium list: BandeiraCorp, TrustInvest, BitSolar, Brifex, Capitaller.
From MNO Standard list: XCBForex.
From MNO Basic list: HYIP-A.
That's it for tonight, guys. I hope you enjoyed reading and I'll be back with more over the weekend and might even have an updated Top Five Popular Programs article by then. I hope you are enjoying your summer break from HYIPs, taking advantage to enjoy the Olympics, but don't forget to check out MNO from time to time as some of the truly big programs will certainly come our way soon. I wish you the best of luck with investments in the programs monitored by MNO, but please be reasonable with your expectations, assess all the possible risks, and only invest what you can afford to lose. See you all soon, guys!

"Growing up and into a classical Christmas story that has been tied with the twine of "Christianity," the tender cracks and imperfections exposed themselves as I got up closer. As I dug in deeper. As I questioned God and His realness. As I wondered, why would you ever come to save us in this way?
Mary, she was a judged woman. And Joseph was a proud man, ready to abandon his fiancee for her crime of infidelity. The feeding trough was filthy, a lowly space for animals to drop their waste and heavy bodies. The baby, he was screaming. The night was cold. And the two must have wondered, as they shivered and prayed and waited on their savior, where is the miracle in all of this?
A messy, little story with no edits made along the way…. This ain't no pretty Christian story.
Not prim. Not pixy. Not perfect.
Not the manger. Nor the virgin. Not the myrrh.
Not made for the ears of Christians alone. Not merely for the ones used to bending their knees and bowing their heads.
This is a story for anyone, and any heart, who has ever needed a savior.
Someone to swoop in and convince you with a confidence that you are not alone and that just. you. wait, because even through the unfavorable odds– a virgin, a bitter fiance, no shelter, no crib–the miracle arrives. And the music sweeps in. And the fog of the night clears. And a star shines so bright that it hypnotizes men to leave their fields & flock to follow.
This is a story, a Christmas story, for any soul that ever needed to know that God can make really beautiful things out of messes. And that He remembered us enough to come down and prove it so."

Record Tourism in 2016 leads to job market recovery.By Anna Pinho • Sep 2nd, 2016 • Category: Company News
2016 is being described as a very successful year for Portugal´s tourism. During the first half of the year there have been 8.5 million tourists in the country showing an increase of 10,2% compared to 2015.
June has been the best month with a record of 1.9 million tourists in Portugal. Both foreigners and national tourists contribute to this increase, where British holidaymakers make up the bulk of the percentage followed on by Germans and then French.
Lisbon and the Algarve are the most popular destinations for tourists within Portugal.
With this Hoteliers and restaurateurs where able to create more jobs especially in the Algarve region which now has the lowest unemployment rate in Portugal (8.1%). Although this may be due to a very busy summer, the region is focusing on becoming a year long tourism destination.
Compared to last year the number of tourists is growing every month and it is expected to continue to do so. Thereby 2016 will become the best tourism year ever in the Algarve.
