Side Jobs: The Basics
If you're searching for your first side job, you have questions. Luckily, we have some answers.
Who has a side job?
Many, many people! Did you know that 46% of professionals are interested in part-time work, especially side jobs that allow them to work remotely part of the time? What's more, as of mid-2017, 1 in 2 millennials have a side hustle and 18.5 million part-time workers in the U.S. reported working part-time for non-economic reasons. This means that they took on part-time work not because they couldn't find full-time work, but because they wanted the part-time job to earn some additional cash, find ways to fill their free time, meet new people, or for some other reason.
What are the best side jobs?
We're not trying to be cryptic, but the best side jobs are the ones you'll enjoy (at least, most of the time). Especially when you're already working a full-time job, it's important to take on side jobs that don't feel like drudgery. Do something you love. Because, who knows? Your side job could someday become your primary job.
Where are the best side jobs located?
As far as non-telecommute side jobs, the best opportunities are in big cities and tourist attractions. After all, the denser the population, the more opportunity to sell your skills and/or time. That said, some of the side jobs on our list are online opportunities, so you can make bank from anywhere with a good internet connection.
How much do good side jobs pay?
Like full-time salaries, pay for side jobs jumps all over the place, from about $10 per hour to $100+ if you have a highly developed and desirable skill set.
How can you make yourself more hirable when looking for a side job?
Obviously, past experience in a given field – elder care, web design, etc. – will give you a leg up in the hunt for a side job. But don't let little or no experience stop you: earn a certificate, training, or similar credentials as a way to get your foot in the door with a given company, and you'll soon be climbing the side-job ladder.
Who are the top employers for quality side jobs?
Finding a side job can be as easy as turning on your computer or as adventurous as heading out into your community. For the former, you can connect with potential clients via online websites (ex. Upwork) or your own websites; for the latter, you'll have to scroll the online yellow pages and word-of-mouth to determine who's in your area (and who's hiring). We've also peppered a few national employers into our list, to give you a good place to start.
Side Jobs: Labor Gigs
If the labor life is the life for you – or, if you just want a side gig that gets you out, moving, and interacting with other people – then you'll be happy to know that there are plenty of labor positions you can take on as a side job. These gigs run the gamut, from part-time warehouse jobs, to on-demand moving services, to general labor with local contractors.
The even better news: most labor side jobs have flexible schedules, since these companies often operate during unconventional hours (including, in some case, around-the-clock). So, no matter what your full-time work looks like, there's likely a labor side hustle you can fit in to your free time.
Earning Potential: $10-$15+ per hour From on-demand delivery services, to flower deliveries, to laundry services, to restaurant meal delivery, the workforce needs part-timers to do the actual legwork. The sky's the limit on this one, so search your local classifieds and job listings to see what's available in your area. You may also have luck with national delivery services, including Amazon Flex, Roadie, and Shyp courier services, while some cities have localized delivery services, such as DeliverLA in the Los Angeles area.
General Labor
Earning Potential: $10-$15+ per hour No matter where you live, there's always someone who needs muscle with a good work ethic. You may be called upon to help prep or clean up a construction site, to canvas a neighborhood, to rake leaves, or to complete many other tasks. The only sure thing: this side hustle will pad your bank account year-round. Check out Wonolo for general labor opportunities in your area.
Earning Potential: $10-$20+ per hour If you have the people skills for a retail setting, then merchandiser side jobs could be perfect: you'll work closely with shop owners to stock shelves, perfect signage and displays, position products, and educate workers on those products. And, depending on your experience and skill set, you may be able to boost your earning potential with additional admin responsibilities, such as re-ordering stock, negotiating pricing, and even analyzing sales figures. You can score local merchandising gigs through Wonolo, as well.
Earning Potential: $10-$15+ per hour Whether you're available to cover the graveyard or just want to pick up some extra weekend hours, warehouse operations never sleep: you can stock, pick, assemble and prepare goods for shipment, whenever your schedule allows. Hours and job availability are even better during seasonal spikes, especially between Black Friday and New Year's. If you're looking to pick up some warehousing shifts, Wonolo is your go-to source for local gigs.
Side Jobs: Leverage your Knowledge
You don't have to be a teacher to turn your knowledge into a profitable skill: if you're an expert on any subject (and have the patience to teach it), you can share your expertise and make money in the process.
Give Local Tours
Earning Potential: $50+ per hour
If you're an expert in your region, whether it's a hopping tourist city or a quiet hometown, transform your passion – history, food, wine, art, etc. – into profit. You'll have the freedom to offer tours only during your downtime, and sites like Airbnb Experiences, Shiroube, ToursByLocals, and Vayable will help connect you with travelers to your area.
Online Coaching
Earning Potential: $25+ per hour
If you coach people in your day job, why not in your side job? And we're not just talking about fitness coaching, either: if you're a successful blogger, coach newbie bloggers. If you know online marketing inside and out, share that knowledge. Sites like Clarity.fm, as well as Google hangouts, Skype, and other online communications tools are a great launchpad.
Tutor / Give Lessons
Earning Potential: $10-$30+ per hour
Yes, we're talking straight-up tutoring: if you're still great at trigonometry, or know your musical scales backwards and forwards, or reign at chess, or are fluent in a second language, or can throw some mean pottery, you can tutor kids (and adults) – both in your community and further afield, thanks to communication tools like Skype and WyzAnt.

If you have not heard of VIPKID yet you should check them out. You can start making $17-$22 per hour teaching English to Chinese students. You can read our entire VIPKID teacher review here.
Earn Christmas Money With Freelance Work
Another side job many people in today's digital society turn to is freelancing. You can now easily monetize your skills online from the comfort of your home. Anything from writing, editing, graphics design, administrative work, copywriting, Facebook ads, and more. You name it you can make money doing it for others.
This is actually the first thing I did when I quit my job to become a full-time blogger.
If you decide to become a freelancer, it's always a good idea to set a regular schedule unless you want to find yourself all over the place. So, if you go to work in the morning, you can write for a few hours before you go to bed. Just remember that your schedule won't magically work itself out.
Also, since you'll be working for a lot of employers, it's always a good idea to keep track of your income.
Some of our favorite sites to find freelance work:
- Upwork
- Freelancer
- We Work Remotely
You can also network with online business owners through Facebook groups and pick up a ton of work. Just be yourself, build a relationship, and start to offer your services.
BONUS: Start A Money Making Blog
I started our blog with ZERO knowledge on how to run a website, market it online, or even write a proper blog post.
That's why blogging is so awesome, anyone can do it! A blog does not have to be overwhelming to start and the income potential is limitless. We took our blog from making $0 a month to over $10,000 in just over a year.
All you need to start a blog is simply decide what you are passionate about, create some awesome content to share, drive traffic, and monetize. You won't become an overnight success, but with some hard work, your income is unlimited.
Kelan created a step-by-step blog tutorial on how to get started with your own blog. If it's something you have ever been interested in now is your chance to get started.

Gigs For Goals?
Before we go here, just wanted to share with you a great mindset to get into to help motivate your side hustlin' even more. I call it the "Gigs For Goals" mindset and the idea behind it is that you attach all gigs of yours to a specific bill or a future want/need. If you can match them up to break even, you're golden! If you fall short, you need to re-arrange your wants and/or start bringing in higher income streams to match 'em. It looks like this:
Something to keep in mind, anyways We'll keep adding to this list over time, but as you can see there are a TON of different ways to make money on the side during your free time. And hey, you never know – it can always turn into a full-time job too if you get lucky! (That is, if you WANT it to, haha.. some of these are purely for the extra cash, as you can probably tell ;)).
If you have any interesting jobs yourself you'd like to share, hit me up here. We'll post it up on the site and make you famous too.
Keep on hustlin'!
——–PS: If you're interested in learning which of these hustles are the most popular, and other fun comparisons, check out this post I wrote up on it: Side Hustle Nation, Represent!

Job Hunting Tips for Military Families
If you're looking for extra cash, here are a few things to keep in mind:
- If you're on active duty, talk to your supervisor first. Before you consider or accept any other work, you need to be aware of any rules that could apply to you regarding off-duty employment. You may have a limit on the amount of extra hours you can work, for example.
- Make a plan. Set a goal for how much money you need to make each month. Then, consider how much time you can allocate to earning more. This will help you focus on those activities that help you meet your goals without taking up all your free time.
- Budget. Earning extra money isn't much of a help if you spend all of it. Create a budget each month so you can see exactly what you've coming in and how much you're spending on each expense. Find ways to trim back on your costs and you'll see your extra earnings go much further.
Whether you're on active duty or are the spouse of someone who is in the military, bringing in extra money is a great way to ensure you enjoy the lifestyle you want – no matter where you happen to be.
Why You Need a Few Flexible Side Hustles (or Three!)
As a veteran finance blogger and side hustler, my experience has shown several benefits of having multiple flexible side hustles:
- You can still keep your full-time job and benefits.
- It's easy to say "no" if an opportunity comes at a bad time.
- When one side hustle is slow, the other one can pick up the slack.
- Your earning potential can actually exceed your day job.
My life is a perfect example: though I have no plans to quit my day job, I've actually made more money with my blogging and real estate side hustles than I have with my full-time teaching job over the past six months!
Whether you're looking for side hustles to earn a few hundred dollars per month or are hoping to quit your 9-5 in the future, here are 8 flexible side hustles you can adopt ASAP.
2. Love Dogs? Start a Dog Sitting Side Hustle
If you love dogs, know how to care for them, and maybe even have one or two of your own, dog sitting is one of the easiest and most flexible side hustles you'll ever find. Nowadays, many busy dog owners are taking to the web to find dog walkers and dog sitters – and that's a golden opportunity for you!
If you're comfortable
- Hosting dogs in your own home or staying overnight in the dog's home
- Feeding dogs and giving them plenty of exercise, walks, and cuddles
- Administering meds from time to time
starting your own dog sitting side hustle is practically a no-brainer.
We recommend advertising your new services online with Rover, one of the leading 5-star networks for dog sitters and walkers on the web. Sure, Rover will get a small cut of your revenue in exchange for helping you get the word about your business, but once you start building your income, we don't think you'll mind.
Curious how you can get started? Here are a few pro tips to get your Rover side hustle off the ground in a hurry:
- Make sure your profile is warm, friendly, and professional. Include as many pictures as possible!
- Emphasize how much you love dogs – it's a side hustle to you, but to a dog parent, they're looking for someone who will love their dog like their own
- Create a Facebook community for your business so owners can stay connected with you
- Set-up your rates to be competitive in your area

3. Take surveys while you watch Netflix
First, let's address the elephant in the room: online surveys get a pretty bad reputation. We can't deny that some online surveys provide ridiculously low payouts to survey takers, make it almost impossible to qualify, and generally waste your time. We've been victim to it ourselves, and it's the worst.
If you've been burned in the past with online surveys or want to give them a shot for the first time, check out these options. We've verified each one, and they're legit.
GrabPoints – GrabPoints has paid out over $5 million to users for doing simple things like answering surveys, watching videos, and a few other mindless tasks you can complete while binge-watching Netflix. My favorite part? They offer payouts by gift card or straight through PayPal (my preference). They offer a pretty cool $5 sign-up bonus, too.
Survey Rewardz – Survey Rewardz isn't much different than many other survey offers out there. Their goal is to help their business partners conduct market research as effectively as possible. What makes them different is the quality and quantity of opportunities for survey takers.
We asked one of our good friends to test it out and provide unbiased feedback, and the results were impressive.
- He signed-up in less than two minutes – and didn't even have to provide his name! (Note: some specific surveys may ask for your name and other info, but you can always decline.)
- He qualified for his first survey right away.
- Survey Rewardz sent out multiple survey offers per day — right away.
Learn more about Survey Rewardz here.
Cash Back Research – Like most survey opportunities, Cash Back Research won't make you rich, and it's not a full-time job. But it is a good opportunity to make extra money when you have spare time.
Here are a few of our favorite things about Cash Back Research:
- They offer an easy-to-use dashboard for all survey participants, where you can find surveys, access earnings data, and request payouts all in one place.
- They offer high payouts – up to $75 for select surveys.
- New offers are available every day, so you aren't waiting days or weeks at a time for new opportunities.
Bonus points: Cash Back Research also offers a $5 sign-up bonus.
5. Become a Real Estate Agent
Yes, becoming a real estate agent is definitely a lot of work up front. And earning your license isn't free. But if you have a large sphere of influence in your area, love watching House Hunters re-runs, and enjoy helping people, you'd likely make a great real estate agent!
Real estate is one of the most flexible side hustles around for people who already work full-time. And if you're a teacher like me, you have a lot of skills that will translate to a fantastic real estate career. After all, not everyone has the patience and people skills to help someone make one of the the most important decisions of their life.
Here are three pieces of advice for launching a successful real estate side hustle:
- Don't wait until you get licensed to tell friends and family about your new pursuit – plant seeds early! Otherwise, you'll find out that someone just bought a house with another agent two days after you get your license. Trust me.
- Join a brokerage and team that provides a balance of training/support without taking away half of your commission on every sale.
- Find a mentor who is willing to show you the ropes in return all of the help you can possibly provide.
You never know – your real estate side hustle could one day become your full-time career.
6. Flip a Variety of Items for Profit
We're not exaggerating when we say this: flipping for profit is one of the most profitable flexible side hustles available today. Virtually anyone can do it on a smaller level without any training or expertise, and it's even possible to earn over $100,000 as a flipper (more on that below).
If you've never heard of it, flipping is pretty basic: buy an item and sell it for more than you bought it. On a deeper level, flipping for mega profits is practically an art-form.
For example, take my friends Robbie and Melissa. They're a husband and wife team who were able to earn $42,000 in 2015 and $133,000 in 2016 just by flipping flea market finds. Today, they teach others how to make money flipping for profit.
Would it change your life if you were even able to make a fraction of Robbie and Melissa's earnings this year?
Yeah, me too.
Flea Market Flipper University is hands down the best best resource available for anyone who wants to make flipping a major side hustle or even full-time job.
Here is just a sampling of what you'll gain from the course:
- Learn how to find the best items to flip and avoid items with poor resale value.
- Create appealing listings on Ebay, Facebook, Offer Up, and Craigslist and get items sold quickly.
- Learn how your smart phone can be your biggest weapon when flipping for profit.
- Ship items to maximize your profits every time.
- Make more money (potentially) than virtually any other side hustle around today.
High Value Alert: of all the flexible side hustles on this list, flipping items for profit offers the highest and quickest return on investment, especially if you learn from the pros first.
7. Rent Out a Spare Room (Or Your Entire House)
Just a few months ago, Minneapolis played host to the Super Bowl and an estimated 125,000+ football fans. And Airbnb hosts cashed in on a golden opportunity and brought in millions of dollars in revenue for Airbnb.
Airbnb may or may not be quite as big in your area, but the potential to earn extra cash as an Airbnb host is hard to deny. Whether you live in a small, basic home or a sprawling suburban min-mansion, Airbnb makes it easy to rent out homes or your entire home to millions of potential guests. You call the shots 100% of the time, from setting availability, prices, house rules, and your preferences for interaction with your house guests.
Curious about how much your house could fetch? Check out the Airbnb estimate tool to help you find out just how much you could earn.
Don't like your estimate? You can always charge what you want and adjust rates at any time.
We know you may concerns about becoming an Airbnb host, and that's normal. Here are just a few of the typical questions we hear:
Is it free to list my home on Airbnb?
Yes! Creating an Airbnb listing is free and easy. Simply upload photos, a description of the accomodations, how many guests you are able to host, and you're all set. (Airbnb does collect a portion of the proceeds when you book –they have to make money somehow– but listing is free.)
Can I get to know my Airbnb guests before they come stay in my home?
Absolutely! If you choose, you can message your guests ahead of time to get to know them. In fact, if you plan on interacting with them, this is a great way to break the ice ahead of time.
Don't want to interact with your guests at all? No problem – you can give instructions ahead of time to avoid any awkward moments. Just let them know where to pick up a key or provide them with a door code.
What do I need to provide for my Airbnb guests?
Typically, hosts provide clean sheets, towels, toilet paper — the basic essentials. If you wish to provide more amenities, your guests will surely appreciate you going the extra mile to make their stay comfortable!
How and when do I get paid?
Here's our favorite part about Airbnb – no cash, and no awkward payments in person! Their secure payment system means you never have to deal with money or guests directly.
Guests are charged for their stay before they arrive, and you'll receive payment right after they check in, minus a 3% service fee. You can opt to receive payments through PayPal, direct deposit, or money wire – it's your choice.
Why you should consider becoming an Airbnb host: today's travelers, especially young people, are looking for special hospitality and connections rather than boring stays in standard hotels. Cashing in on this trend is easy – and that makes Airbnb a choice side hustle!
Don't forget to see how much your home could rent for on Airbnb!
8. Drive and Deliver with DoorDash
This isn't your father's pizza delivery side hustle (though that's not a bad idea, either. . . ). DoorDash is changing the way people get food and other local items delivered.
At its core, DoorDash is a technology and logistics company. They identify the most popular restaurants that offer take out in a given area and connect their customers with Dashers who deliver food straight to their door. It's basic supply-and-demand.
And it's a win-win-win for everyone. Restaurants increase their reach and sales, customers get the food they crave, and Dashers get paid to provide a much needed service.
Here's the scoop on what it takes to work for DoorDash:
- You must be 18 or older.
- No major moving violations (DUI, reckless driving, homicide or assault, driving on a suspended license, failure to stop for law enforcement) in the past 7 years and no more than 3 incidents (accident or moving violation other than a major violation).
- Pass a background check.
- Once you're approved, download the app, turn on your availability, and start earning.
How much can I make with DoorDash?
Earnings vary by location, but you can expect to be paid for each delivery you complete – and you get to keep 100% of your tips! Payments are proceed weekly.
DoorDash will show you the guaranteed amount you'll earn for completing a delivery before you choose to accept or reject that order. The guaranteed amount is based on the size of the order, whether you have to place the order in person, and the projected driving distance, traffic, parking, and wait time at the store.
Cool perks: For each delivery, you will always receive at least $1 from DoorDash plus 100% of the customer tip. If that sum is less than the guaranteed amount, DoorDash will provide a pay boost to make sure you receive the guaranteed amount. Where that sum is more than the guaranteed amount, you pocket the extra amount.
You can learn more about DoorDash and get started here.
Pro tip: if you really want to maximize your delivery and driving earning potential, consider signing-up to drive with Uber and Uber EATS.

I visited Tang Music Box with a few other mummy bloggers last month and we had a great time singing our hearts out! It's been ages since I had a karaoke session!
I really like how Tang Music Box is family-friendly and there's no sleazy feel whatsoever. That's not something I can say about other karaoke joints which tend to be dimly lit and perpetually smelling of stale smoke.
When you enter Tang Music Box, you are greeted by a welcoming display of snacks and drinks at The Meeting Place. There's a staggering array of drinks and a variety of snacks and tidbits so you're not stuck with the usual cocktail nuts and salty chips.
There are rates and packages to suit all group sizes and needs so you can have the flexibility to decide what's best for your budget. You can even have up to 30 people in some rooms! There are also special promotions for every day of the week and after-school specials for students and school staff. That's definitely music to my ears. :)
I wasn't really comfortable with the touchscreen control panel to the side of the TV screen because I've always used the remote control system to select songs, but according to my friends who frequent karaoke joints, that's the way things are done these days. It would have been better if it's on some mobile tablet device so you don't have people crowding around the control panel trying to choose songs while one person sings.
I enjoyed my time at Tang Music Box and would love to take the kids there to hang out. I'm sure they'll go gaga over the snacks and drinks. Looking forward to it even if it means I'll have to sing their favourite songs over and over again!

The queen overspent and France lent a lot of money to the United States during their revolution to cause this financial crisis. This led to higher taxes on the people, which led to an increased burden on people who were already economically stressed.
The counter revolution was made of of various groups, in and outside of France who were opposed to the French Revolution and wanted to change its course. Consisted of nobles, ecclesiastics, and some bourgeois and more. This agrees with the DRMC because it shows how people are allowed to organize on a common belief.
The third estate got the power they deserved. Took control of the country of France of limited the power of the King. Yes it agrees with the DRMC because the people took what they thought to be an overpowering government and limited its power. http://cdn.dipity.com/uploads/events/102789d3ebde8adbb2a7768b56b9ef5d_1M.png
The estates general was a meeting between the three estates summoned by King Louis XVI to discuss solutions to his governments problems. It ended when the third estate formed the national assembly. This meeting was important because it signaled the upright of the french revolution.
The deputies came together at a nearby indoor tennis court and took an oath saying they would not separate until the constitution of the kingdom was established. This was important because it showed the unification of the revolution and it signified the first time citizens stood against the king. It complied with the DRMC because they're reforming a corrupt government.
Occurred in Paris France. The Bastille was a fortress/prison which represented royal authority, so when the national guard/rebels tore it down it signified that they did not want to be ruled by the absolute monarchy anymore. Yes this agrees with the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen because it says that a government should be a tool of the people and if not, it should be destroyed- which the people did.
A document of the French Revolution and defines the individual and collective rights of ALL the estates. This document made the estates equal and fixed the treatment of the 3rd estate. Yes it agrees with itself.
The Great Terror was a period of time when people were executed based off accusations of organizing a counterrevolution. The guillotine killed 16,594 including the King and Queen of France. Does not comply with the Declaration of the Rights of Men because the document states that "liberty consists in the freedom to do everything which injures no one else" implying that people have freedom of speech.
Making laws, it was the revolutionary government they came up with for temporary purposes.
The revolutionary government that was set up for temporary purposes. Its importance was it saved France from civil war and invasion.
King Louis was executed by means of the guillotine. It symbolizes the fact the the monarchy is dead. It follows the DRMC to an extent by getting rid of a abusive government. Because the King committed treason of abandoning the country at time of need, and at that time treason was punishable by death, the people had the right to execute him.
Violence that occurred after the French Revolution. The death toll in the tens of thousands.
The Napoleonic Reforms is the French civil code, established under Napoleon. The code forbade privileges based on birth, allowed freedom of religion, and specified that government jobs should go to the most qualified. It was important because it was a major step in replacing the previous patchwork of feudal laws and it influenced the whole world. This agrees because it gave people simple liberties.
Napoleon Bonaparte was known as an excellent strategist who had gained the respect of his men through bravery and courage under fire. Even though he was defeated in Egypt, Napoleon returned a hero. Supported by his army he collaborated in a coup d'état to overthrow the Directory and establish the Consulate. By 1800 Napoleon had become the First Consul of France, and was now in a position of total power. This was an important step for french government. This agrees with the DRMC because it is giving France the ability to chose their leader.
The invasion of Russia started when when Napoleon's forces crossed the Neman River. It ended up being a turning point during the Napoleonic Wars. It reduced the French and allied invasion forces and triggered a major shift in European politics. The reputation of Napoleon as an undefeated military genius was shaken, while the French Empire's former allies, at first Prussia and then the Austrian Empire, broke their alliance with France and switched camps. This ultimately triggered the War of the Sixth Coalition. This agrees with the DRMC because the were doing something that the believed was right.
Napoleon abdicates the throne, and, in the Treaty of Fontainebleau, is banished to the Mediterranean island of Elba. Yes this agrees with the DRMC because the people are getting rid of a leader they believe is ineffective.
The Congress of Vienna was a conference of ambassadors of European states chaired by Austrian statesman Klemens Wenzel von Metternich, and held in Vienna. The objective of the Congress was to settle the many issues arising from the French Revolutionary Wars, the Napoleonic Wars, and the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire. This agrees with the DRMC because they settling issues as a democracy.
The battle of Waterloo was a battle within the Napoleonic Wars. The size of the armies were 23,000 British troops with 44,000 allied troops and 160 guns against 74,000 French troops and 250 guns. It was fought near Waterloo in present-day Belgium. This was important because Napoleon was defeated, and this defeat at Waterloo ended his rule as Emperor of the French. This agrees with DRMC because they were fighting for what they believed in.

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), as well as micro teams, face an uphill task when delivering software to the Cloud. While rapid release methods such as Continuous Delivery can speed up the delivery cycle: software quality, application uptime and information management remain key concerns. This work looks at four aspects of software delivery: crowdsourced testing, Cloud outage modelling, collaborative chat discourse modelling, and collaborative chat discourse segmentation. For each aspect, we consider business related questions around how to improve software quality and gain more significant insights into collaborative data while respecting the rapid release paradigm.

1.How Do I Know If I Am Affected by the SettlementBack to Top
This case involves the ASUS Rog Strix GL502VS and the ASUS Rog Strix GL502VSK laptop computers (the "Laptops") purchased in the United States between May 4, 2014 and November 19, 2019.
The Parties will ask the Court to certify a Settlement Class defined as "all persons in the United States who purchased a new ASUS Rog Strix GL502VS or ASUS Rog Strix GL502VSK laptop computer from Defendants or an authorized retailer of Defendants between May 4, 2014 and November 19, 2019." Excluded from the Class are: (i) the Honorable Magistrate Ryu and any member of her immediate family; (ii) any government entity; (iii) Martin Quinn and any member of his immediate family; (iv) Defendants; (v) any entity in which Defendants have a controlling interest; (vi) any of Defendants' parents, affiliates, and officers, directors, employees, legal representatives, heirs, successors, or assigns; (vii) any person whose purchase of a Laptop was for resale purposes; (viii) any person who timely opts out of the Settlement; (ix) any person who received a full refund of a Laptop's entire purchase price from ASUS or a retailer in connection with the Power Defect, Overheating Issue, or heat-related issues alleged in the Lawsuit; (x) any person who received a replacement Laptop that did not suffer from the Power Defect or Overheating Issue; and (xi) any person who signed a release regarding their Laptop.
If the Settlement does not become effective (for example, because it is not finally approved, or the approval is reversed on appeal), then this litigation will continue.
2.What Is the Lawsuit About?Back to Top
A lawsuit was brought by Plaintiff against Defendants for marketing the Laptops as powerful, portable machines ideal for gaming and video editing with independent cooling systems to give the Laptops "stability required for intense gaming sessions." Plaintiff alleges that the Laptops are not suitable for their ordinary and advertised purpose of gaming and video editing because they uniformly suffer from a defect that causes the Laptops' batteries to drain even when the Laptops are connected to, and drawing power from, electrical outlets (the "Power Defect"). Plaintiff also alleges that contrary to Defendants' marketing representations, the Laptops' cooling system uses a unitary set of heatsinks to dissipate heat from the graphics processing unit ("GPU") and computational processing unit ("CPU"). Plaintiff alleges that heat generated by computationally or graphically demanding programs overloads the unitary cooling system's ability to dissipate heat from the CPU and GPU and causes the Laptop to overheat to the point of causing physical discomfort and/or diminishing the Laptops' performance and durability (the "Overheating Issue"). Plaintiff additionally alleges that Defendants failed to honor their warranties for the Laptops because Defendants responded to requests for warranty repairs by replacing the Laptops' defective components with identical and equally defective components. Defendants deny that there is any factual or legal basis for Plaintiff's allegations. Defendants contend that its Laptops do not suffer from the Power Defect or Overheating Issue, deny making any misrepresentations and, therefore, deny any liability. They also deny that Plaintiff or any other members of the Settlement Class have suffered any injury or are entitled to monetary or other relief. The Court has not determined whether Plaintiff or Defendants are correct.
3.Why Is There a Lawsuit?Back to Top
While Defendants deny that there is any legal entitlement to a refund or any other monetary relief, Plaintiff contends that the Defendants caused consumers to purchase the Laptops when they would not otherwise have done so and/or the Defendants caused consumers to pay more for the Laptops as a result of Defendants' failure to disclose the Power Defect or Overheating Issues. The lawsuit seeks to recover, on behalf of all Settlement Class Members, monetary damages as a result of the alleged misrepresentations.
4.Why Is This Case Being Settled?Back to Top
Plaintiff filed his original lawsuit on May 4, 2018 in Alameda Superior Court. This lawsuit was removed to the United States District Court of the Northern District of California on June 7, 2018.
Plaintiff's Counsel conducted a thorough examination and investigation of the facts and law relating to the matters in the Litigation, which included extensive formal and informal discovery, the retention and consultation of an electrical engineering expert, requesting and receiving written discovery responses from ACI, examining Defendants' documents, and questioning Defendants about their documents.
On March 19, 2019, the Parties participated in an all-day mediation conducted by Honorable Martin Quinn at JAMS in San Francisco, California.
Counsel for both Plaintiff and Defendants have determined that there is significant risk in continuing the litigation. In particular, Plaintiff may have substantial difficulty establishing: (1) that all the Laptops uniformly experienced the Power Defect and Overheating Issues, (2) that Defendants' marketing materials were likely to deceive reasonable consumers, (3) that omissions in the marketing materials were material to reasonable consumers, (4) the amount of damages or restitution due to the class or to any class member, and (5) that common questions predominate over individual issues such that a class may be certified. After considering the risks and costs of further litigation, the Parties have concluded that it is desirable that the Plaintiff's claims be settled and dismissed on the terms of the Settlement Agreement.
Plaintiff and his counsel believe that the terms and conditions of the Settlement are fair, reasonable, adequate, and equitable, and that the Settlement is in the best interest of the Settlement Class Members.
5.What Can I Get In The Settlement?Back to Top
Extended Warranty
ACI agreed to extend the warranty on all ASUS Rog Strix GL502VS laptops to cover all "Qualifying Repairs" until the later of: (i) three years from the date of purchase; (ii) 90 days from Final Approval; or (iii) 180 days from the date of a prior replacement of the internal power supply and/or power adapter by ASUS ("Extended Warranty").

WATCH VIDEO. Aereo, the New York based TV streaming service, has had a victory in court, with a judge refusing to grant a preliminary injunction shutting the service down.
US broadcasters, including all major networks NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS, Fox, filed federal lawsuits against Aereo in the Southern District of New York claiming that Aereo is infringing their copyrights.
US District Judge Alison Nathan said that while the broadcasters had demonstrated they'd suffer financial loss if the service continued, Aereo itself would suffer severe harm – probably enough to kill the business off altogether.
She also drew a parallel with a 2008 case in which an appeals court ruled that Cablevision should be allowed to offer customers a remote PVR.
Chet Kanojia, CEO and founder of Aereo, said "We said from the start that we believed that full and fair airing of the issues would reveal that Aereo's groundbreaking technology falls squarely within the law."
The broadcasters said they would appeal against the decision.
The Aereo service aims to provide multiscreen access and PVR functionality for viewers in the New York area. In order to achieve these features, Aereo has installed an array of miniature antennas, which pick up the free-to-air signals from all local broadcasters. When people subscribe they each get a single antenna dedicated to them plus a remote PVR attached to it. Via their broadband connection, they will be able to access antenna and PVR.

Hot Picks
An Interview with Nathan Hill, Star and Director of I, Portrait
by Mike Haberfelner
July 2019
Hill on (re)Search my Trash
Quick Links
Your new movie I,
Portrait - in a few words, what is it about?
is a story about a newly married couple that invite an old friend
into their house that has ulterior motives to destroy their relationship.
It�s inspired by the thrillers of the 90s, movies like Single White
Female, Cruel Intentions and Color of Night.
wanting to get too personal, is any of your movie based on personal
experience? And to what extent could you actually identify with
Stephanie's mindset?
I was a kid I remember a lot of people visiting the house and sometimes
overstaying their welcome. My father was a priest so we had a large
congregation of people that would visit us, often unannounced and you
would just have to grin and bare it. I guess I wanted the Stephanie
character to be somewhat like that.
(Other) sources of inspiration when
writing I, Portrait?
co-star Natalie Heslop came up with the original concept and then it just
kinda grew from there. I�ve written many scripts in my time, even won a
couple of screenwriting awards, so to create the classic three act
structure with the typical plot points and red herrings, throw in a cliffhanger and boom we�re there.
I, Portrait you chose
a rather slowburn build-up of suspense - care to elaborate on that?
remember being really taken back the first time I saw Easy Rider.
The ending just seemed to come out of nowhere and shocked the hell outta
me. I wanted to emulate that power on screen. I also like From Dusk
Till Dawn. It�s like the first half of the movie you think it�s a
drama, and then it takes you by surprise when the second half turns into
full blown horror. I like that.
can you tell us about your overall directorial approach to your story at
took a more suspenseful approach, kinda like a Polanski film. Keep the
drama on the few lead characters (like Death and the Maiden) and
build and build up to a shocking climax. A slow burn as you say. I kept
everyone in a lock down for the main shooting block, being all inside one
house together, I guess I was kinda going for a cabin fever type approach.
Watch what happens when people really have had enough, lol.
You also play the male lead in I,
Portrait - so do talk about your character, what did you draw upon
to bring him to life, and did you write him with yourself in mind from the
character of Julian was an interesting one. If you look closely at my list
of credits on IMDB you�ll see I�ve been playing letter �J�
characters for the better part of a decade. It�s just trivial and has
worked out that way, even when I don�t mean it, which is funny because
my middle name is John. I see it like the second chapter of my life
playing out. He�s a casting agent, same as some of the work I do in real
life, so it was easy to emulate. As a metaphor I�d say he�s driving
the car, but we�re more so watching the girls riding in the car, aka
Carmen and Stephanie. If I get a chance to act in one of my films and
it�s within proper context then I do it. It�s also easier as I know
the material better than anyone else.
Do talk about the rest of your cast, and why
exactly these people?
actually collected a bunch of talented actors from my own city that I�d
been wanting to work with for a while. It was the perfect opportunity to
cast actors like Damon Hunter, to play my best friend. Others such as
Gizelle Basiri, whom had been wanting to collaborate for a long time,
others like Loraine Fabb who had mentioned the same thing. I also had a
little spot planned for Simay Argento which was fun and Kalia Best whom
I�d had my eye on for a while. They�re all respected artists in their
own right and if I could cast them in the correct role/s then I just did
A few words about the shoot as
such, and the on-set atmosphere?
of the nature of the film and thus being a lot of sexualised scenes and
whatnot, the lead actresses asked if we could possibly have female crew
when shooting those scenes. As I often use a female DOP in this case the
wonderful Dia Taylor, I made an executive decision to just hire an ALL
female crew for the entire shoot. It worked a treat and I ended up with a
film unlike any of my others and I hold testament to this being one of the
reasons why. And it worked.
The $64-question of
course, where can your movie be seen?
sales agent/distributor in the USA had the power to get any of my work on
most platforms, ie: iTunes, Amazon Prime, etc. so indeed I will be chasing
that up pronto! We are aiming for an early Xmas release. I�m also
currently working on a special edition DVD for the hardcore fans which has
a bunch of goodies including commentaries that will be available to
purchase online, so I�m pumped about that.
Anything you can
tell us about audience and critical reception of I,
just had the cast and crew screening recently and it was a real success.
In fact more so than my last one. So I�m really happy about that.
Usually the ones who worked on the actual film can be the worst/harshest
critics, now I just have to see what the general public think, minus the
internet trolls and haters that give you bad reviews even when they
haven�t even seen the film! Lol!
Any future projects you'd like to
the casting director on Cult Girls (Jane Badler) and an associate producer
on The Debt Collector (John Brumpton), so they will be the next on the
slate to come out. Me personally, will be slating my 10th feature film
next up! But my lips are sealed for now about what that subject matter
will be about.

The links belowwill take youjust there!!!

Looking for imports ?Find Nathan Hill here ...
eThaiCD.comYour shop for all things Thai
Your/your movie's website, Facebook, whatever
Anything else you're dying to mention and I have
merely forgotten to ask?
My motto for 2019 has been to focus on yourself, don�t compare yourself to
anyone else and just be YOU. So far it�s been challenging. Social media
is a beast and as filmmakers we have to cross reference so many different
responsibilities now if our movies are to become successful. Most guys I
know are burnt out by the time the movie is in the can. But honestly the
journey only really begins after the initial screening of the work.
That�s my experience anyway. You have to keep fit and have lots of
energy to survive. Throwing in the towel is easy, staying on top of your
game is the real challenge. And ignore haters, they have failed in their
lives and are suffering from fits of jealousy.
Thanks for the interview!

Welcome to the RESO Data Dictionary. The RESO Dictionary has two purpose= s. First is to serve as a common center for expressions of fields and looku= ps (enumerations) found in a RESO Certified data source. The second i= s a universal guideline for the fields and lookups found in an MLS's Listin= g Input Module.
As an MLS works toward implementing the RESO Data Dictionary, they are a= dvised to consider the benefits of growing closer to the RESO national stan= dards not only in their RESO standards based services, but in their MLS inp= ut form as well. Not only will it make the adoption of RESO standards and d= elivery of their RESO services easier, as listings move from your system to= IDX, VOW and other approved systems, it will help to ensure that the meani= ng of your data is not diluted or misinterpreted. When your members see the= same names and terminology around the data in those external services, it = will bring an all important consistency to your membership and to their cli= ents who often see MLS reports and displays.
As the RESO Standards have grown, it has become clear that a "common gro= und" for fields and enumerations is needed. Keeping a centralized method of= expressing property and listing concepts will mitigate implementation erro= rs, ease field mapping and foster innovation around a more stable and cost = effective center. These benefits can be achieved by implementing the RESO D= ictionary in your services. For those who are wanting to minimize the chang= es to their MLS database (and input forms) there are technological ways to = deliver RESO compliant metadata while minimizing change in the MLS input fo= rm.
The best way to start using this Wiki=
is to review =
Using the Data Dictionary Wiki (1.7) then follow=
the appropriate links.
On Going Growth
The RESO Dictionary is design= ed to grow with our industry. If you have ideas for the dictionary we welco= me them. However your ideas for change do require some accompanying informa= tion.
Name: Please review fiel=
ds or enumerations and create a name you feel best fits the current convent=
Definition: We ask that you write a robust def= inition of the field.
Data Type: Include your recom= mended data type and maximum field length.
Lookups/Enumerati= ons: If your recommended field is a pick-list, please include enum= erations. Enumerations will also need a robust definition.
J= ustification: Please give a reason the field is important to your = market. Also if the field has legal or MLS rules requirements, be sure to i= nclude a reference back to the law or rules in question.
Uti= lization: We ask that you include an indication of how much use yo= ur field or enumeration sees. This should be done by a count of the number = of listings using the field or enumeration and the number of listings in yo= ur sample. This will be used to create a percentage of utilization. Include= the criteria used to determine the sample of listings used.
Duplication: Review the dictionary thoroughly to ensure you are n= ot duplicating an already existing field or enumeration. Concepts can be ex= pressed in a number of ways and rather than adding additional fields or enu= merations, alternate names are added to the synonym column (and used to imp= rove definition).
Thank you for your interest and participation in the RESO Dat= a Dictionary. More information will be following form RESO about implementi= ng the Dictionary in existing and future versions of RETS. We also invite a= ll MLSs to refer to the dictionary as a future center for their own metadat= a (field/enumeration) change decisions.

New home prices in the Calgary and Edmonton regions were on the decline in August, according to Statistics Canada.
The federal agency report on Thursday in its New Housing Price Index that prices fell by 0.4 per cent from July in the Calgary census metropolitan area and by 0.5 per cent in the Edmonton metropolitan area.
On an annual basis, prices were down 0.8 per cent in Calgary and 0.6 per cent in Edmonton.
Nationally, StatsCan said builders in 18 of the 27 census metropolitan areas surveyed reported flat or decreasing prices in August.
"The Canada-level index stood at 103.3 in August and has not risen above that mark since November 2017. Mortgage rate increases, along with tighter mortgage regulations, are likely contributing to the flatness observed across Canada," it said.
"Ottawa's new housing market (+0.6 per cent) registered the largest month-over-month gain in August. This was the 11th consecutive monthly price rise in that CMA, coinciding with an increasingly tight resale market. According to the Canadian Real Estate Association, new listings were down 8.5 per cent in August compared with the same period in 2017.
"Weakness in the housing markets in Alberta and Saskatchewan continued in August. New house prices declined in Regina (-0.7 per cent), Edmonton (-0.5 per cent) and Calgary (-0.4 per cent), while prices in Saskatoon were unchanged. According to the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp., the inventory of newly completed and unsold single-family dwellings rose in all four CMAs – ranging from 11.4 per cent in Saskatoon to 34.4 per cent in Calgary – in August, compared with the same month a year earlier. Single-family dwellings include row, single, and semi-detached houses."
The federal agency said new house prices rose 0.4 per cent year over year in August, with annual price advances gradually slowing since October 2017. The largest 12-month gains in August were in Ottawa (+4.9 per cent) and London (+3.6 per cent). Four out of the five CMAs reporting 12-month declines were in Alberta and Saskatchewan, with Regina (-2.1 per cent) recording the largest decrease.
