Responding to DDoS Ransomware Demands & Attacks
Besides the financial loss that a company may experience by paying the ransom, companies must consider another risk: i.e., that they still will be subject to a DDoS attack by the hacker.
How to Handle DDoS Attacks: A Critique of DDoS Myths
A recent TechSpective article listed 20 ways to help prevent a DDoS attack. Some of the suggestions are helpful, but many of them have little benefit against the types of DDoS attacks which are common today. So, in the interest of busting some DDoS myths, this blog puts the recommendations in context.
Ponemon Report Weighs in on the Internet of Things
According to Dark Reading, a new Ponemon Institute report states that a majority of companies rely on legacy technologies such as network firewalls and intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to ward off cyber threats such as malware, ransomware and distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.
Benefits of Automatic DDoS Protection in a Hosting Environment
It's relatively easy for hackers to launch distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks against a web hosting provider, because they have such large attack surfaces.
Attack Detection: The Crucial First Step in DDoS Mitigation
If your IT security system fails to detect and block the majority of DDoS attacks, how can you be sure that your network is truly safe from other incursions?
The Future of DDoS Protection: Turning the Threat into a Revenue Generating Opportunity
Corero Network Security, in conjunction with Fierce Telecom has released "The Future of DDoS Protection: Turning the Threat into a Revenue Generating Opportunity". This executive summary highlights the unique needs of Service Providers, when deploying DDoS mitigation for infrastructure protection, as well as a new service offering for their customers.
Service Providers Can Offer Per-Customer DDoS Attack Dashboards

It's hardly surprising that DDoS attacks finally caught the attention of politicians; it was just a matter of time until a DDoS attack affected a government agency. A combination of events has led to more awareness of cyber threats, including DDoS attacks.
5 Essential Qualities to Look for in a DDoS Mitigation Solution
When vetting various distributed denial of service (DDoS) mitigation services, enterprises would be wise to determine which kind of protection their business needs, and look for five key characteristics.
DDoS Attacks: The Changing Legal and Regulatory Landscape
Internet service providers are increasingly treated more like public utilities than consumer services; will government regulations require that they block DDoS traffic? That remains to be seen. Ultimately the demands of enterprises and consumers may have more influence than any government regulations. The business landscape may require ISPs to provide DDoS protection, if only to protect themselves from litigation.
The Threat of North Korea's DDoS-driven Cyber Attack
DDoS attacks can cripple crucial Internet systems. Learn about the potential damage a cyber attack wielded by North Korea could do.
What ISPs Need To Know About CLDAP DDoS Attack Vectors
The Corero Security Operations team has identified significant exploitation of the CLDAP attack vector in attack attempts against its customers since it was first disclosed in October 2016.
DDoS-For-Hire Services Under the Spotlight
The rise of DDoS-for-hire botnets has caused an explosion of attacks, partly due to their cheap price point – they can be launched for just a few dozen dollars per month.
DDoS Attacks and Political Hacks
The British House of Commons issued a report last week, indicating the possibility that hackers from Russia or China launched a DDoS attack that crashed the United Kingdom's voter registration website before the deadline to register for the historic Brexit vote. Was that the likely cause of the crash, and could something similar happen in the US?
Why Real-Time DDoS Mitigation Is Essential for Your Network Security
If you think your network is safe from distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks just because your website or web application has not been taken offline, think again. The cyber threat landscape continues to evolve dramatically. In terms of DDoS attack trends, two things have happened.
Survey Says Businesses Want DDoS Protection from ISPs
Corero conducted a survey of decision makers and security experts, to get a pulse on industry concerns about DDoS attacks in 2017. Learn about the results!
Myths that Surround Cloud-based DDoS Mitigation
Now that DDoS attacks are a common occurrence for many companies, more organizations are rightfully worried about protecting their servers and web applications. With that wave of concern comes a slew of advice—some good, some bad—from IT experts about the best anti-DDoS approaches. One example of bad advice is to suggest that organizations can rely exclusively on cloud-based mitigation.
How Can a DDoS Attack Be Part of a Security Breach?
A recent study by BitDefender showed that 34 percent of companies in the U.S. were breached in the past year, and 74 percent of the victims don't know how it happened. Companies must realize that DDoS attacks are often part of the toolkit for cyber criminals to launch a security breach.
Is DDoS Protection Worth the Investment?
Anti-DDoS technology has often been difficult or costly for individual organizations to deploy. Fortunately, DDoS defense solutions have evolved, enabling hosting providers and ISPs to offer affordable DDoS protection to their customers.
Lack of IoT Security Fuels Terabit DDoS Attacks
Learn why unsecured IoT devices have become the backbone source for current and future multi-terabit distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.
DDoS Attacks, Who Dunnit? The Fight for Improved Detection and Protection
A recent Kaspersky Lab study found that many businesses that have suffered DDoS attacks believe that their competitors launched the attacks. Is there evidence to support their beliefs?
Mirai IoT Malware Now Infecting Windows Systems
The Windows-based spreader appears to have been created by a developer with advanced skills, and has a richer and more sophisticated code and components than the original Mirai malware.
What is the Benefit of Real-Time DDoS Mitigation? Let a Corero Customer Tell You!
The following post is contributed by our friends at Zare, a UK based hosting provider for quality, affordable and DDoS protected dedicated hosting solutions.
The Importance of DDoS Attack Visibility
As sophisticated DDoS threats continue to evolve, effective security analysis requires continuous visibility into the traffic flowing between the protected network and the Internet. Analysis of past events is valuable to help prepare for future threats.
Nearly 40% of Companies Lack Skills and Technology to Handle DDoS Attacks
A recent TripWire study highlights the growing problem of cyberattacks, and whether IT staff feel that their companies have the right combination of skills and technology to cope with various types of cyber threats.
If You Haven't Already Been DDoS'ed, Assume You Will Be
Some companies are keenly aware of attacks on their networks, but other companies are not. Even in some companies that have dedicated IT security staff and systems in place, major security breaches have occurred. It can take months or even years for an organization to realize that it has been breached.
IoT-Driven Botnet Attacks US University
To avoid experiencing similar incidents, companies need to pay close attention to the network settings for their IoT devices and, where possible, separate them from access to the Internet and to other devices.
Financial Impact of Mirai DDoS Attack on Dyn Revealed in New Data
Several months after the now-infamous DDoS attack on DNS provider Dyn last October, the incident continues to make headlines. Earlier this month, reports emerged about the scale of customer losses that the company experienced in the wake of the attack. According to security ratings provider, BitSight, roughly 8% of Dyn's customer base stopped using their services in the aftermath of the attack.
DDoS Attacks Won't Be Blocked by Black Holing/Null Routing
Anti-DDoS solutions have evolved dramatically over the past few years, so it's surprising to see occasional articles that still recommend outdated approaches, such as remote black holing (also called null routing) to stop unwanted traffic.
An Economical Approach to DDoS Attack Protection for Hosting & Service Tenants
Corero's new product, the SmartWall® Service Portal, enables Internet Service providers and hosting providers to offer DDoS Protection as-a-Service (DDPaaS) to their tenants in a flexible and economic model. A few years ago, such DDoS technology was not available; now, it's the wave of the future.
Increased Risks of DDoS Attacks for Ransom to Businesses
DDoS extortion campaigns are a common tool in the cyber-threat arsenal, and one of the easiest ways for an attacker to turn a quick profit. When service availability is threatened, the victim company needs to consider the potential loss in downtime, revenues and brand damage.
Untangling the Dark Web behind Mirai IOT Botnet DDoS Attacks
Security researcher Brian Krebs believes he has unraveled the mystery of who launched a massive Mirai botnet DDoS attack on his site in September of 2016. If Krebs' allegation is true, then this is a seamy tale of a good programmer who went bad: a white hat turned into a black hat.
How DDoS Attacks Impact Hosting Providers [Part 2] – Data Security
On its own, a DDoS attack is not a security breach; however, it can pose a serious data security risk for hosting providers and others. Learn why IT security teams cannot afford to ignore DDoS threats, no matter how small the attacks may be.
How DDoS Attacks Impact Hosting Providers [Part 1] – Web Availability
Most hosting providers experience DDoS attacks on a nearly daily basis, even if they are typically not volumetric attacks that drag down an entire network. When a hosting provider gets hit with a volumetric attack, the ramifications can be far-reaching and long-lasting.
Law Enforcement Tries to Curb DDoS Attacks
Law enforcement is at a disadvantage against hackers, mostly because distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks leave little or no trace of evidence. However, police have made some arrests recently, which counts as a tiny bit of progress in the uphill battle against cyber criminals.

Letters to the Editor
Letters to the editor: Oct. 29
Akers a standout
I live in Scott County but have a business on Leestown Road in Lexington. This is one of those times I wish I lived in Lexington so I could vote for Shevawn Akers for council.
She has worked tirelessly for the district and received little thanks for her accomplishments. In fact, she has been vilified for no real reason.
Please, set aside the petty distractions and get down to the bottom line. If you think you can do a better job, tell us how and why, and run on that, not on trying to chop another candidate's legs out from under her with misleading and distracting issues that have no bearing on how well a job is being done.
Don't be swayed by negative campaigning. Akers has earned your vote. She is a standout.
Dan Shorr
Moynahan in 7th
As a small business owner, I know that Michael Moynahan is just the kind of leader we need on city council to represent the 7th District. Moynahan has a master's in business administration from the University of Kentucky and understands that private business drives the local economy and creates jobs. He knows that local government should partner with business owners and not work against them. He visited my house in Chilesburg and we spoke at length about the need for eliminating bureaucratic red tape that provides no benefit to taxpayers. The 7th District would be wise to elect him on Nov. 4.
Edward Pauley II
Harry Clarke diligent
When I met Harry Clarke in 2012, I soon realized he was not only a leader and organizer (of his neighborhood association as well as of the University of Kentucky marching band and the department of music) but also a person of amazing investigative curiosity.
His pre-election learning process about District 10 residents and their concerns, along with his diligent examination of city issues in order to prepare for what he was getting himself into — all that impressed me and continues to do so.
Clarke works hard in his District 10 seat. His responses to citizen concerns are serious and studied. He has educated himself in his first term not only about his district but also about important issues across all of Lexington. He knows his constituents in the 10th and he cares about them. He deserves your vote for re-election.
Janet Cabaniss
Witt's selfless service
As a member of the team of the office of the Fayette County Sheriff, I get to witness firsthand the leadership abilities of Sheriff Kathy Witt. Her commitment and dedication to the people of Fayette County is unparalleled. She works tirelessly to ensure all people in this community are safe and protected. She is available whenever needed or called upon. I have personally witnessed the kindness and compassion she shows to those in need.
For the past 16 years, Witt has continued to bring integrity to the sheriff's office. Her selfless service inspires not only the members of the sheriff's team but others she encounters. She not only serves the citizens of Fayette County in her role as sheriff, she has a sense of duty to the community that extends beyond her official capacity.
Joseph A. Modica
Kay for at-large
We first met Steve Kay through our volunteer work with Habitat for Humanity and the Catholic Action Center. We were very impressed by his dedication to serving our community and especially, the "least of these."
Through the years we have seen Kay serve Lexington in numerous other capacities, most recently as an at-large member of our city council. Kay cares for people and believes that a hand up is more effective than a handout. He leads with practical yet creative ideas and a calm demeanor.
If there is a limit to Kay's energy and enthusiasm for serving Lexington, we have never seen it. Please join us in voting for Kay for council at-large on Nov. 4.
Herm and Roz Heise
Support Traci Boyd
I am proud to support Traci Boyd for Family Court judge. I have known her for 15 years and she is the type of judge you want on the bench. She will listen, be fair and respectful, and will make prompt decisions.
Boyd is a mother and knows the struggles that families face. She has been divorced so she knows the hardships that come with having to go through a divorce. She has practiced family law longer than her opponent and she is educated about how Kentucky's family law should be applied.
Hopefully, you will never have to end up in family court. But if you do, having a judge like Boyd will make the process easier. Consider giving her your vote.
Sharieffa Barksdale
Late to coal country
Surprise. Mitch McConnell cares about coal. (When it's politically correct to do so.) After 30 years in which he has done nothing to help the economy of Eastern Kentucky, McConnell has introduced the Coal Country Protection Act and wants you to sign onto it.
Nice name, right? And that's all there is to this bill, as far as Congress and the country are concerned. A bill by this name introduced by McConnell for purely political reasons has no chance whatsoever of making it out of the Senate and he knows it.
On the other hand, his Democratic opponent, Alison Lundergan Grimes, has some specific ideas for creating jobs and improving the economy in Kentucky's coal country.
Better luck next time, McConnell.
David Whealdon
Pro-life and against special interests
I am Dwaine Curran, candidate for state representative in the conservative 72nd District.
Following an interview with the editorial board, the Herald-Leader decided to endorse my opponent, Sannie Overly, for state representative of the 72nd District, which includes Bath, Bourbon, Nicholas and northeast Fayette counties.
If Overly's voting records were revealed to the conservative 72nd, it would be found that she is the antithesis of conservatism based on her votes, or lack of.
It's easy for folks to declare that they are pro-life if they're alive. For me, life begins at conception which earned an endorsement from Kentucky Right to Life. When Senate Bill 8 was introduced to the House floor — which would have required abortionists to reveal an ultrasound of the baby in the womb to its mother, oftentimes changing the mom's opinion about ending her baby's life — Overly and 48 of her colleagues abstained from voting.
All representatives should be required to vote on all measures so the constituents can witness who is represented. Special interests or voters? I, Dwaine Curran, being a voice for the life of the child in the mother's womb, would have voted for SB 8.
An endorsement from the Herald-Leader would go against the beliefs lived by the good people in the 72nd. The lack of endorsement from the paper will send a message to the 72nd that Dwaine Curran is pro-life at conception and will not be swayed by special interests. Read more at putkyfirst.com.

TomTom Is Already Recalibrating to Meet Its Next Big Challenge: Self-Driving Cars
In the late 1990s, people said TomTom would be replaced by personal digital assistants. In 2009, the company had to diversify after the launch of Google Maps. Today, the navigation business faces a new challenge: autonomous vehicles.
"Of course you get disrupted," TomTom co-founder Corinne Vigreux told Fortune's MPW International conference in London on Tuesday. "But we kept investing in technology and pursuing the vision that we had."
Vigreux said the company has survived because it took the long-term view. "Being an entrepreneur is hard," she said. "There is a technology graveyard full of companies, especially consumer electronic companies, who could not keep up with the pace of change."
And TomTom continues to forge ahead, even as self-driving cars—which Vigreux expects on the roads in as little as ten years—take over the task of navigation.
"Our expertise is to put a car on the road within two centimeters of accuracy," she said of the company's path forward, "and we can scale and do that globally."
She emphasized that when it came to scaling, hiring, and retaining the right talent was key. TomTom grew from a $40 million company to $1.8 billion company in five years, and it was a strong management team that allowed it to grow so quickly, according to Vigreux.
"Be very careful about the people you bring into your organization," she said.
As the competition for talent increases, Vigreux is not waiting to see what the pipeline brings her. She founded Codam, a coding school in Amsterdam that opens this fall.
The program focuses on peer-to-peer learning, which means educating 600 students only requires about 50 staff members. The school is completely free, and Codam is marketing most heavily in areas with high populations of lower-income families and refugees in Amsterdam.
"I want money to absolutely no object in this environment," Vigreux said, though she acknowledged that even individuals from these communities who receive training for valuable skills may still face imposter syndrome or other culture shocks in the workplace. Moving forward she hopes to implement programs that begin helping underprivileged students when they are as young as six years old.
Whether or not they're battling imposter syndrome, here's her advice to entrepreneurs: "Keep looking at your dreams, keep listening to your customers, and keep focused on the problem you are trying to solve. If you do that you can make the world a little bit better."

The 8th Hamburg Games Conference in the Bucerius Law School ended Tuesday with emphasis on storytelling in the games sector. The convention, organised by the media lawyers Graef Rechtsanwälte in co-operation with gamecity:Hamburg, brought experts on storytelling and 200 experts in the games and media sector together to discuss improved ways of reaching target groups. Dr. Christian Rauda, partner at Graef Rechtsanwälte, who moderated the events, noted: "Stories appeal to us in a manner that differs from facts. They surprise and touch us, are fun and remain in our memories. Thus they are powerful tools for the games and media sector."
"Pillars of the Earth" -computer game
A historical novel entitled "Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett has been turned into a computer game presented by Valentina Tamer, Game Designer at Daedalic Entertainment. She gave delegates a glimpse of exclusive scenes from the adventurous game, which will be released in summer. Commenting on what has proved the biggest game production for Daedalic so far, Tamer said: "We had to come up with an entirely new story to keep up the suspense in the book. Yet, the gaming world must match the world created by the novel."
Storytelling in e-sports
Arne Peters, Vice President Strategic Relations Electronic Sports League, discussed storytelling in the booming e-sports segment with Oliver Redelfs, Red Elf Media. Commenting on the approach, Peters said: "We tell stories about players and teams to bring them closer to fans. We do not limit them to e-sport and present professionals outside of the arena by telling, for instance, a home story." Players and viewers want to able to cheer on their heroes and that is a crucial part of such games.
Virtual reality
The games convention also focused on new technology such as virtual reality headsets Nicolas Chibak, co-founder and CEO of SpiceVR/Spherie focused on "Storytelling in Virtual Reality" in his keynote speech. He noted: "The headsets are just an interim step and we will soon have an entirely new experience of virtual reality and augmented reality." SpiceVR/Spherie have won many prizes for their virtual drone and Chibak presented 360-degree images during the conference.

Are Non-Competes Legal in Arizona?
In the business world, non-compete clauses have become increasingly common. A non-compete agreement is a contract designed to prevent employees from entering into business activity that directly competes with their former employer after finding new employment.
Ordinarily, employees are barred from entering into certain business activities for a specified period of time.
Arizona residents and employees ought to be aware of these agreements and whether they are legally enforceable in Arizona.
The Legality of Non-Competes in Arizona
Determining whether a non-compete agreement is enforceable in Arizona ultimately depends on the scope of the agreement.
Broadly speaking, if the scope of the agreement is narrow in scope and protects only the employer's legitimate business interests, it is extremely likely that the order will be enforceable.
Alternatively, if the non-compete is too broad and unreasonable — in other words, the agreement goes far beyond protecting the employer's legitimate business interests — the agreement may not be enforceable.
More precisely, Arizona law requires courts to look at two key factors when determining the legality of a non-compete agreement.
Factors That Lead a Court to Enforcing a Non-Compete
Arizona courts will enforce a non-compete agreement if:
The agreement protects a legitimate business interest
The non-compete is reasonable in both its scope and duration
The agreement does not violate Arizona public policy in any way
Regarding legitimate business interests, there are a number of legitimate interests that may justify a non-compete agreement.
Trade secrets, patents, intellectual property and similar interests are going to be legitimate enough to justify a non-compete agreement. For this reason, unsurprisingly, non-compete clauses are common in the tech industry and the sales industry alike.
Second, when courts look into whether the agreement is reasonable in scope and duration, understand that this analysis will vary by industry.
What is reasonable in the tech sector may vary from what is reasonable in the restaurant industry, for example.
Geographic restrictions and time duration will also need to be looked at based on what is the reasonable industry norm.
No matter the industry, however, an employer must be capable of producing evidence that the scope and duration is needed for business reasons.
Third, Arizona courts care a great deal about whether a non-compete agreement violates public policy in some way, shape or form.
As the term "public policy" implies, a non-compete agreement that harms the Arizona public in some meaningful way will not be legally enforceable.
An example of this would be a non-compete agreement that deprives the employee from working in their field at all, which naturally goes against Arizona's public policy to ensure all its residents are capable of pursuing and obtaining meaningful employment.
What Happens If an Arizona Court Takes Issue With Non-Compete Clauses and/or Provisions?
If a court finds that certain provisions of a non-compete are unreasonable, do not protect legitimate business interests or violate public policy, they can eliminate any and all provisions of the agreement.
This is not to say that the entire non-compete will be legally invalid, however.
The court can simply eliminate the provisions that are legally problematic, and the provisions that are reasonable can remain as originally agreed.
In short, non-competes are generally going to be legally enforceable, even if there are certain provisions that will be removed from the agreement.
If you have any questions about non-compete agreements or take issue with a specific provision of a non-compete, discuss the matter with an Arizona employment lawyer.
Contact Tyler Allen Law Firm, PLLC for a legal consultation to discuss your non-compete questions and concerns with an Arizona employment lawyer.

It's more or less the same plot as the first Ghostbusters (in the same way that The Force Awakens is more or less the same plot as A New Hope), and it's just as enjoyable. And, the Ghostbusters themselves are four women who are intelligent, funny, brave, loyal, determined, and completely kick-ass while remaining fully clothed and avoiding cat-fights. A film like this was well overdue.

Four brothers of ex-MP from ruling Republican Party Arakel Movsisyan (aka Shmays) - Murad, Zarzand, Sahak, and Lyova Movsisyan - are currently being questioned at the RA Special Investigative Service, Spokesperson for the SIS Marina Ohanjanyan told Armenian News - NEWS.am, without giving details on the case.
Earlier it was reported that officers from the National Security Service (NSS) of Armenia have detained the four brothers of former MP Arakel Movsisyan, on Monday morning.
Aygek village prefect Varuzhan Abrahamyan confirmed the information that Murad, Zarzand, Sahak, and Lyova Movsisyan were taken into custody.
In June, the NSS conducted a search at Arakel Movsisyan's house. Subsequently, he was summoned to the NSS where he was questioned. Afterward, he was released on the grounds that he voluntarily handed over weapons and ammunition.

I'm obsessed with podcasts. When I'm not writing or listening to music, I'm usually walking down the street with someone's voice in my head (😱). And increasingly, podcasts are big business. Companies like Slate, Gimlet and even we here at Mobile Nations have made a pretty good dent in the universe with series that appeal to every type of person.
Well, after Spotify announced that it was getting into the original podcast business, Google has followed up with its first series, and it's pretty darn good. Hosted by one of my favorite podcasters on earth, Hrishikesh Hirway, the series is called City Soundtracks, and it pairs great bands or artists and the cities that inspire them. The first three episodes are available now, and they range from R&B superstar Kehlani touring around her home town of Oakland, California, to (my favorite) Spoon giving Hirway the lowdown on Austin, Texas.
Hirway hosts two other notable podcasts, Song Exploder, which asks an artist to break down a song into its individual components, and The West Wing Weekly, where he goes through every episode with Joshua Malina, who played Will Bailey from season four until the series' end in 2006.
It's unclear what Google's intentions are for its original podcast content; one show with three episodes isn't likely to sway anyone to sign up for Play Music over Spotify (especially given Spotify's considerable investment in its own original media), but it's hopefully the beginning of a consistent output of worthy shows.

Submit your review
My wife was just about ready to toss and buy a new couch and love seat because they were so dingy, but I thought I'd give this company a try to see if by chance I could save them from being thrown out. I don't know what they did to get it so clean, but it was an amazing job!
I decided to give Bel Air Carpet Cleaners a try because I saw their reviews on Yelp and I needed someone in the Bel Air area to work on my rugs. Boy, was I pleased with their work! They were thorough and very careful with the wool rugs I needed cleaned. I was happy to find out that they're a family-owned business, because I've had bad experiences with bigger companies I have used in the past. I'll be using Bel Air again!
These guys are the best! I have a small office which hasn't been properly cleaned by the last several carpet cleaners I've used. David came in and did a thorough job with both my carpet and rugs. I'm not the most trusting person, but I felt I could leave him to it and everything would be left the way it was before. It was great to come back from the weekend and have my workplace look and smell clean!
I live near the West Hollywood area and wanted to get my dirty & dusty shag rug cleaned. I called the Bel Air Carpet Cleaners, they were very courteous over the phone they explained the process and gave me the price. They came over right on time picked up the rug, cleaned it and brought it back within 7 days as promised. When they brought it back and laid it out the rug looked brand new and smelled great! I was very happy with the cleaning service and would recommend these guys!
I really love all the work you guys did for me, thanks for all the work
Thanks for all the quality work!
I was looking for a reliable carpet cleaning company in or around the West Hollywood area that uses no types of chemicals! I have kids and a dog so that was most important to me. I found the Bel Air Carpet Cleaners, I was glad to find out all the products they use are completely non-toxic and naturally green. They gave me a free estimate over the phone, for carpet and rug steam cleaning services, we booked the appointment. They came over right on time, did a great job, the place was left spotless. Everything was professional, no funny business on the payment it was all as previously agreed. I will now use these guys for my office cleaning as well.
I love my dogs, but sometimes when I'm away from home, accidents happen. I had a mess on my hands because my lovely pets made a mess all over my sofa and rug. I looked up carpet cleaners and Bel Air popped up so I thought I'd give them a try. I'm glad I did, because they were really nice on the phone and came out right away to do the cleaning. Me and my boys are also pretty sensitive to chemicals, so it was a relief when they said they used non-toxic cleaning products. They did a great job!
What's most important to me is that people are honest. Don't come to me and say my rug is clean when I can tell it's not. What was so refreshing about Bel Air was they told me straight up one of my rugs couldn't be cleaned completely. I have two cats and one of them had an issue with spraying, especially on this Persian rug I own. The guys at Bel Air told me they cleaned the top of the rug, but they couldn't get the smell out because it had soaked right into the bottom, they'd even tried different cleaning products on it. They explained it to me in detail which was amazing and even offered a discount. None of the other cleaners said a word and just put the rug back in its spot. I know who I'll be using from now on.

Many people get spots on their skin and they can be due to many different reasons but whatever the reason why they appear, people want to get rid of them as soon as possible. Today there is the website http://www.yourbestskinadvisor.com/dark-spot-corrector/ which can give them advice as to exactly which cream, lotion or other product is best for removing the type of spot which they have.
Some of the causes of these blemishes are age, sun, scars or acne marks and each different type of blemish is best treated in a different way. Some of the products which this particular website looks at are:
- Meladerm
- Clinique even
- Renu Anti-Aging
- Rapid Age Spot By Murad
- Le Fair
This product helps to exfoliate your skin's top layer where the blemish or spot is. One of the advantages of this product is that it contains no hydroquinone which. Although known to be effective, has over recent years been shown to have possible links to cancer. Containing among its ingredients rice protein and soy, this product reduces shadows under the eyes and promotes good blood flow.
Clinique Even
Although it took 3 months for 58% of users to see improvement, 53% saw improvement in just 1 month. The advantages of this product are that it is safe for use even by those people that suffer from allergies and is a non-greasy serum which is fragrance-free.
Renu Anti-Aging Face Cream
This product uses all natural ingredients and promotes collagen as well as treating acne scars. The cream contains coconut oil and a blend of essential oils to hydrate the skin and provide overall better skin care.
Rapid Age Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum by Murad
This product contains Glycolic acids which remove dead skin cells allowing the other ingredients to penetrate and assist in removing blemishes and fading dark spots. A synthetic lightening agent, Hexapeptide-2, also helps prevent further spots appearing.
Le Fair Anti-Aging Skin Cream and Serum Combo Set
This product not only reduces dark spots but also lifts sagging skin and reduces wrinkles, making it an excellent product for age spots.
Of course, though there are many different products on the market today all of which work to varying degrees on different types of blemishes and spots. In order to decide which is the best product for you to use, you should first know what type of blemish or spot you have and then look up the ingredients on each of the different products.
It is the ingredients that matter and so the texture, fragrance or look are only for show and so do not buy a product just because it may smell nice or be easy to use, as that particular one may not have much in the way of actual active ingredients. Vitamins C and E are always good and so among others, look for ingredients that contain one or other or even both of these Vitamins which are also beneficial to your skin's overall well-being as well as addressing the current problem.

Adalimumab (Humira™)
Manufacturer: Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, IL Indication: Treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) Drug Class: Adalimumab is a recombinant human immunoglobulin G (IgG1) monoclonal antibody that is specific for human tumor necrosis factor (TNF). It was created using phage-display technology, resulting in an antibody with human-derived heavy chain and light chain variable regions and human IgG1:K constant regions. Adalimumab is produced by recombinant DNA technology in a mammalian cell expression system and is purified by a process that includes specific steps of viral inactivation and removal. Consisting of 1,330 amino acids, it has a molecular weight of approximately 148 kd.
Uniqueness of Drug: Adalimumab is the first human monoclonal antibody approved for reducing the signs and symptoms of RA, and for inhibiting the progression of structural damage, in adults with moderately to severely active RA who have not responded adequately to one or more traditional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Boxed Warning—Risk of Infections: Cases of tuberculosis (frequently disseminated or extrapulmonary at clinical presentation) have been observed in patients receiving adali-mumab. A tuberculin skin test should be used to evaluate patients for latent tuberculosis infection, which, if present, should be treated before adalimumab therapy is initiated.
eriacta tablets
Warnings Infections
Serious infections and sepsis, sometimes resulting in fatalities, have been reported with the use of TNF-blocking agents, including adalimumab. Many of these infections have occurred in patients receiving concomitant immunosuppressive therapies that can predispose them to tuberculosis in addition to their existing RA. Invasive opportunistic fungal infections have been also observed in patients receiving TNF-blocking agents, including adalimumab.
Adalimumab therapy should not be initiated in patients with any active chronic or localized infections. If new infections develop during therapy, close monitoring is essential. If serious infections develop, adalimumab administration should be discontinued. Physicians should exercise caution when considering the use of adalimumab in patients with a history of recurrent infections or underlying conditions, which may predispose them to infections, or in patients who have resided in regions where tuberculosis and histoplasmosis are endemic. Physicians should carefully consider the benefits and risks of adalimumab treatment before initiating therapy. Demyelinating Disease
The use of TNF-blocking agents, including adalimumab, has been associated with rare cases of exacerbation of clinical symptoms and with radiographic evidence of demyelinating disease. Prescribers should use caution in considering adalimumab for patients with pre-existing or recent-onset central nervous system demyelinating disorders. Malignancy Lymphomas have been observed in patients taking TNF-blocking agents, including adalimumab. In clinical trials, the incidence of lymphoma was higher than the expected rate in patients who had taken adalimumab than in the general population. Patients with RA, particularly those with highly active disease, may be at a higher risk (up to several-fold) for lymphoma, although the role of TNF blockers in the development of malignancy is not known. canadian antibiotics
Precautions: Allergic reactions have been observed in approximately 1% of patients receiving adalimumab. If an ana-phylactic reaction or other serious allergic reactions occur, administration of adalimumab should be discontinued immediately and appropriate therapy should be initiated.
The first injection should be performed under the supervision of a qualified health care professional. If patients or caregivers plan to administer adalimumab, they should be instructed in injection techniques; their ability to inject the drug as a subcutaneous (SQ) dose should also be assessed to ensure proper administration technique.
It is possible that TNF-blocking agents, including adali-mumab, might affect host defenses against infections and malignancies because TNF mediates inflammation and modulates cellular immune responses.
As observed with TNF-blocking agents, adalimumab has been associated with tuberculosis in clinical trials. Tuberculosis was observed with all dosages, but the incidence of tuberculosis reactivations was especially greater when the adalimumab doses were higher than the recommended dose. All patients recovered from tuberculosis after standard antimicrobial therapy. No deaths were attributable to tuberculosis during the clinical trials.
Dosage: The recommended dose of adalimumab for adult patients with RA is 40 mg, administered every other week as an SQ injection. Methotrexate, glucocorticoids, salicylates, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), analgesics, or other DMARDs may be continued during treatment with adalimumab. Some patients who are not taking concomitant methotrexate may derive additional benefit from increasing the dosing frequency of adalimumab to 40 mg every week.
Adalimumab is intended for use under the guidance and supervision of a physician. Patients may self-inject adalimumab if their physician determines that it is appropriate and with medical follow-up, as necessary, after proper training in injection technique.
The adalimumab solution in the syringe and in the vial should be carefully inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration before SQ administration. If particulates and discolorations are noted, the product should not be used. P&T Committee Considerations: Adalimumab has been approved to reduce the signs and symptoms of RA, and to inhibit the process of structural damage, in adult patients with moderately to severely active RA who have not benefited sufficiently after treatment with one or more DMARDS. Adali-mumab offers convenience as an every-other-week SQ injetion. A specially designed prefilled syringe will be available, making the self-injection process easier for patients whose hands have been damaged or deformed by the disease.
Adalimumab can be used alone or in combination with methotrexate. The efficacy of adalimumb was assessed by evaluating improvement in RA signs and symptoms response scores and in inhibition of the progression of structural damage, as measured by bone changes in x-ray films. Twenty-two percent (14 of 63 patients) experienced improvement in signs and symptoms of RA as early as one week after the beginning of treatment.
Adalimumab must be used with caution. The most serious adverse drug events associated with it are infections, neurological effects, and certain malignancies of the lymphoid system. Compared with the general population, patients with RA, particularly those with active disease, appear to be at greater risk for the development of lymphomas. Patients with RA should discuss therapy options with their health care providers.
Adalimumab is appropriate for inclusion on the formulary, but prescribers should first gain a thorough awareness of the patient's general health before initiating therapy.

The manufacturer's wholesale price of adalimumab is $13,500 for a year's treatment, about the same as for etanercept (Enbrel®, Immunex, Wyeth-Ayerst) and infliximab (Remi-cade®, Centocor); both cost upwards of $13,940 a year to administer. The list price from the manufacturer or the wholesale acquisition cost (WAC) for 2- to 40-mg prefilled syringes of adalimumab plus two alcohol preparations is $1,045.28.

What we propose, advocate, and enact as ThinkandAct.Earth / #TAE | United Citizens of Earth / #UCE | Freeing Systems Co. / #FreeingSystems:
The methods, steps and processes necessary to begin to co-create a societal operating manner based upon symbiosis and sustainability. Through a lifestyle of self-sufficiency within not just an individual and/or collective, but also a global context.
Realized and Actualized, through and from, natural and technical abundance by local, self reliant / sustaining individuals and/or communities working alone and/or together within a free access, open source, technically advanced, ever-emergent maximization of efficiency and sustainability operations based foundation of the individual and/or collective society / culture.
The operation of which being in the form of cooperative based maximizing of renewable economic and ecological natural abundance.
Reducing forced scarcity; ending a reliance upon indebtitude for temporary access to resources; 're-wilding' of nature manipulated to suit a symbiotic manner of existence between humans and nature; the mitigation of climate change and the ending of anthropogenic ecocide; with optimized systems of:
Technical Efficiency & Restorative Sustainability for Integral Wellness.
The foundation is multi layered out of necessity, so, briefly, the virtual Think project of the foundation is United Citizens of Earth / #UCE. Which is our main social media outreach, we are on Facebook mainly but are also on other platforms. This is where we do a variety of social media outreach, we will touch upon almost any topic of discourse and try and bring the conversation to a point of relevancy and hopefully understanding for the individual and/or anybody paying attention.
This aspect is mainly just a virtual outreach upon what we propose, advocate and enact, as well as we do touch upon many issues, current events, technologies, systems, things that people can do today to begin to thrive and negate a few negative systemic effects of oppression.We do not consider ourselves media, even though we do write articles and do investigative journalism. We would consider ourselves a foundation, that like the name suggests, we are trying to focus on Thinking Effectively as to Act effectively.
The Act project is really the main focus of this foundation, the act project is the actualization of the realizations we gain from the Think project, where we focus upon facts and solutions. The Act project [www.FreeingSystems.Com] is basically us going around helping individuals and/or communities to implement Freeing Systems that reduce a dependence of reliance upon oppressive operating constructs for access to survival.
In terms of what step 1 is, that would be the realization of our point of this process, being a process that enables and engages symbiotic sustainability in all aspects, we call this process a 'Myriad Access Juxtaposition' as it can be universally applicable.
Step 2 is to Actualize the Realization, that is where Act comes in, we provide many of the physical steps necessary to transition ones physical process towards the proposal, advocative and what we even do personally in our own lives, which is enact a simple methodological process we call – Technical Efficiency & Restorative Sustainability for Integral Wellness, which is Proven to work, Hypothetically and Actually.
So what we propose, advocate and enact is just a Process, but this process can be proven to be effective in individual and/or collective thrivability, as well as shows consistent negation of negative systemic effects bred from the structural violence inherent to oppressive societal operating constructs.
Just to go through our main advocative briefly, we present such systems as:
Which presents such cultivation methods as 'PPMAAS' (Perennial Polyculture Multistrata Agroforestry, Aquaculture, Silvopasture / intensive silvopasture).
Otherwise known as – Edible Landscaping | Carbon Farming | Permaculture | Phytoremediation | Food Forestry and more, is the study of ecological processes applied to agricultural production systems. The prefix agro- refers to agriculture. Bringing ecological principles to bear in agroecosystems can suggest novel management approaches that would not otherwise be considered.
The term agroecology can be used in multiple ways, as a science, as a movement and as a practice. Broadly stated, it is the study of the role of agriculture in the world. Agroecology provides an interdisciplinary framework with which to study the activity of agriculture. In this framework, agriculture does not exist as an isolated entity, but as part of an ecology of contexts. Agroecology draws upon basic ecological principles for its conceptual framework.
Biotecture is a method of construction that specializes in building symbiotic and sustainable, autonomous structures that utilize natural materials and applications that are customized to support human life, as well as benefit the surrounding environment, with designs adapted and customizable to any climate and/or location.
Biotecture is another term for Eco-Architecture (Ecological Architecture) which is a manner of construction that is symbiotic with the surrounding environment and ecosystem as a whole, as well as sustainable in every aspect. Building life affirming homes that are healthful, engaging technical efficiency and restorative sustainability for integral wellness using renewable and inert materials good for humans and good for environment.
– Symbiotically Sustainable Renewable Energy:
Eco-Friendly technologies – Solar / Wind / Hydro / GeoThermal / Kinetic, and more.
Renewable energy plays an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. When renewable energy sources are used, the demand for fossil fuels is reduced. Unlike fossil fuels, non-biomass renewable sources of energy (hydropower, geothermal, wind, and solar) do not directly emit greenhouse gases.
Renewable energy technologies are clean sources of energy that have a much lower environmental impact than conventional energy technologies.
Renewable energy will not run out. Ever. Other sources of energy are finite and will some day be depleted.
Most renewable energy investments are spent on materials and workmanship to build and maintain the facilities, rather than on costly energy imports.
–Social Communicative & Decision making processes:
"CCC" – *Cyber-Integrated Constructive Consensus* – Is just one example of a much better viable social communication / decision making model that is proven much more effective and efficient within even minor application than what we are utilizing as society today.
It is 2018 at this moment, and we have societal communicative and decision making processes that are provably Much Better than these outdated forms of social operations such as the main methods currently used, which are variations of "Democracy" and "Republic".
Consensus decision-making is a group decision-making process in which group members develop, and agree to support a decision in the best interest of the whole. Consensus may be defined professionally as an acceptable resolution, one that can be supported, even if not the "favourite" of each individual. Consensus is defined by Merriam-Webster as, first, general agreement, and second, group solidarity of belief or sentiment. It has its origin in the Latin word cōnsēnsus (agreement), which is from cōnsentiō meaning literally feel together. It is used to describe both the decision and the process of reaching a decision. Consensus decision-making is thus concerned with the process of deliberating and finalizing a decision, and the social, economic, legal, environmental and political effects of using this process.
Constructive is "helping to develop or improve something; helpful to someone, instead of upsetting and negative," as in the phrase "constructive criticism,"
Cyber-integrated is the act of integrating something into the cyber / virtual realm, i.e. The Internet.
Now add all of that together and you have "CCC" Cyber-integrated Constructive Consensus, a universally viable system of communication and decision making.
We currently use a very long outdated Aristotelian communicative process, it is very inefficient, and there are methods and techniques that reduce the misunderstandings and misconceptions that arise from using such outdated and outmoded practices.
We try and promote and utilize variations of clearer and more direct forms of communication. Different areas and processes of sociolinguistics are something we try to make effort to focus upon and refine.
We appreciate the work of Alfred Korzibski for example, and his applications of General Semantics.
–Regenerative Systematic Abundance:
Symbiotic & Sustainable Technology – 3D printing is one example. With this modern technology not a lot of equipment is required and the equipment can be run with a small staff. The initial cost is also fractional in comparison to large automated setups in various manufacturing plants.
We can print structures, homes, prosthetics, bones, organs, foods, you name it, we either can or eventually will be able to print it up.
Regardless of the specific application, 3D printers offer rapid turnaround times when it comes to taking a digital concept, and placing the physical results of that concept into a user's hand. As the technology surrounding it improves, 3D printers will become increasingly versatile. They'll be used for an ever growing number of tasks, in a manner similar to the last two decades of digital expansion via personal computers. Imagine a third world village printing vital medical equipment on demand. Aid workers never being without the specific supplies they need, a result of carrying portable 3D printers with them into combat zones and disaster areas. Imagine hospitals being able to print organs on demand instead of waiting for a donor. 3D printers have virtually limitless potential as the technology driving them improves.
Automation – can be defined as the technology by which a process or procedure is performed without human assistance. In other words, Automation or automatic control, is the use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories, boilers and heat treating ovens, switching on telephone networks, steering and stabilization of ships, aircraft and other applications and vehicles with minimal or reduced human intervention, with some processes have been completely automated.
Automation has been achieved by various means including mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, electronic devices and computers, usually in combination. Complicated systems, such as modern factories, airplanes and ships typically use all these combined techniques. The benefit of automation include labor savings, savings in electricity costs, savings in material costs, and improvements to quality, accuracy and precision.
From self-driving vehicles and semi-autonomous robots to intelligent algorithms and predictive analytic tools, machines are increasingly capable of performing a wide range of jobs that have long been human domains. A 2013 study by researchers at Oxford University posited that as many as 47% of all jobs in the United States are at risk of "computerization." And many respondents in a recent Pew Research Center canvassing of technology experts predicted that advances in robotics and computing applications will result in a net displacement of jobs over the coming decades – with potentially profound implications for both workers and society as a whole.
-Art & Play:
Essential to individual and societal wellbeing, is our ability to express human creativity and imagination. Without such we would not have what we do today, everything produced from humans stems from our extraordinary ability at creativity, ingenuity, imagination, and application of knowledge and wisdom to produce results.
Situationist theory was the concept of the spectacle, a unified critique of advanced capitalism of which a primary concern was the progressively increasing tendency towards the expression and mediation of social relations through objects. The situationists believed that the shift from individual expression through directly lived experiences, or the first-hand fulfillment of authentic desires, to individual expression by proxy through the exchange or consumption of commodities, or passive second-hand alienation, inflicted significant and far-reaching damage to the quality of human life for both individuals and society. Another important concept of situationist theory was the primary means of counteracting the spectacle; the construction of situations, moments of life deliberately constructed for the purpose of reawakening and pursuing authentic desires, experiencing the feeling of life and adventure, and the liberation of everyday life.
The role of Art & Play has been to simultaneously express values of the current culture while also offering criticism, balance, or alternatives to any such values that are proving no longer useful. So as times change, art and expression changes. If changes in the past were abrupt they were deemed revolutions. The best artists have predated society's changes due not to any prescience, but because sensitive perceptivity is part of their talent of seeing and expressing.
As such, we find it not only necessary to include manners of expression that uplift and congratulate the freedom of expression in any form, but to engage them with passion and inspiration.
Well-being of human life, Requires this.
We promote this aspect vehemently for the simple reason that art and play define our exuded expressions of being and manifest understanding and expression in a most wonderful fashion.
"If I can't dance to it, it's not my revolution."
~Emma Goldman~
-Workshops & Consultation:
All of the above listed so far we offer consultations and workshops for.
We even like to learn ourselves and help others learn such necessities of survival, such as – basic medical, educational and combat / weapons skills training along with a myriad of survival techniques, methods and information pertaining to such.
We also try to offer our assistance to those in need as best we can per our ability.
We have and will try to assist any who require to speak to somebody, we will try and find shelter and food for those in need, even try to find support and friends as well.
We ask any and all who even just wish to bullshit with someone, to contact us.
The purpose of our outreach is to engage and enable cooperation base growth and advancement, and even just to help those who might not have any other ability, and yes, to plant seeds of rationality and relevancy in any manner possible to engage a more symbiotic relationship between all life & non-life On & around this planet and anywhere we might wind up..
By Implementing systems of symbiosis and sustainability within the ecosystem that are nourishing for humans and all life surrounding our species, and basing the "economy" (household management) on a free access, open source, natural law, a realistic resource based mindset operated without any form of Indebtitude of any kind, for survival – We as a species currently have the potential to advance our civilization to a process of evolution that can allow for our species a continued symbiotic and thriving life on earth, as well as give us an authentic and symbiotic form of advancement for life on this and possibly other planets as well.
We (Team Members) put forth time, effort and alignment towards the Realization & Actualization of a societal operating system that is constantly maximizing Efficient, Sustainable, and Wellness oriented resource production, distribution and allocation, from applications of "technology" (whether it be a advanced, primitive or hybrid system/s) and programming specifically made for creating and maintaining the systems of efficiency, sustainability and wellness, on all levels and aspects of operation that are required for optimal micro/macro self-functionality, this process allows for the potential of Authentic individual Freedom as well as a cooperative societal advancement construct.
And we also promote, advocate and try our best to enact STEM (Science Technology Engineering Mathematics) communication and literacy.
This Potential of our species stems from an Individual and Collective Value shift, or a shift in awareness of reality that allows one to divert from the forced and inculcated / indoctrinated values and ideals of capitalism and theocracy, to that of our Proposition, Advocative, and Enacted examples of Self-Application of individual and/or community realization and actualization of: Technical Efficiency & Restorative Sustainability for Integral Wellness.
After one realizes the scope of what we propose, advocate and enact (which we here at UCE will and do help in any way we can to clarify whatever it is that needs to be clarified) And wants to Act for themselves and/or a collective, you can contact us for basic inquiry and for even more in depth, potentially hands on assistance or integration, you can go through the FreeingSystems Act project side and work with us directly.
We travel all over, trying to help people and communities in this endeavor, as such we are Hoping that More folks become interested in applying these Steps towards Sustainability and Freeing Systems that can allow for a more symbiotic integration sustainability and efficiency to potentially form of authentic freedom for our collective future!
People can help us out, first by themselves understanding and realizing the scope of what we are talking about, as well the point of why it is necessary, then integrating, implementing and actualizing the beginning of the co-creation process of building a very viable and desirable future of collective wellness with us and/or on your own.
