Questions from the Internets: Part 2
When did your blog change from a 'side blog' that a few people read, to a blog that garnered lots of followers? When did product testing come into play? Do you think you would ever want to become a full-time blogger? -Marta, long time reader
To be honest, I'm baffled when I look at my page view stats. It's not like I regularly get 50 comments per post or anything, but I suppose the number of comments doesn't always correlate with the number of readers one has as a blogger? I've thought a lot about this and either my readers prefer to just read a post and move on, without actually interacting with me as a blogger (very possible) or there is something else going on here. Perhaps blogs are not as popular in general anymore because it takes a lot more effort to click multiple places, enter in passwords, and make comments as a reader---it's so much easier to just read a post and move on. Or 'like' a picture on Instagram or some of the other more 'user friendly/EASY' social media forms. Commenting on blogs is hard and time consuming, this I know. #FirstWorldProblems
That said, yes---I do have a fairly large following according to my Blogger stats and Feedly stats. I don't really know when that changed, but I'm guessing it was just a gradual thing over time. I have been blogging here at this exact same domain for over six years now so it makes sense that more people read this blog now than they did in 2007. It definitely wasn't anything sudden but there was a jump in readership with each baby being born around these parts, too---perhaps people just like to look at pictures of babies and read mommy blogs that stick around for a few years.
I will say that I never made a dime off my blog until fairly recently, and joining BlogHer in October of 2012 was/is my biggest source of any revenue. It's not a ton but it's something, which is a lot more than what I made on this blog a few years ago. I don't post a ton for them right now, but when Target asked me to be a 'social influencer' about a year ago, that was pretty big, too. 'Pretty big' as in a gift card here and there but never anything that will allow me to quit my day job;) I've done a few other giveaways for companies which usually means I get something out of it, too. I certainly cannot complain with any of this and feel grateful that there are opportunities to make a chunk of change through this platform.
Which brings up your last point: would I ever want to do this full time? In reality, probably not. For a lot of reasons, mostly because if this became a job with actual income for my family, it would lose the aspect of 'fun' for me. Too much pressure or something. It wouldn't be the same, since I truly blog mostly for myself (selfish!) and want to keep it that way. Well, I blog for myself but I also blog because of the connections it provides, the support, the relationships I've gained. There are lots of reasons I blog, really but deep down I want it to come from my heart and be for me/my family with a public following that enjoys reading along.
Whenever Nate asks me, 'Why don't you just make your blog huge and rake in the cash?' (not his exact question, but probably something along those lines) I always tell him the same thing: I'm a wuss. I don't want to take the risk. Meaning, I am incredibly fortunate to avoid negative, hateful comments right now. I feel like the bigger a blogger gets the more she is opening herself up to criticism. Maybe I should just toughen up and grow a pair but I kind of like being in my own little bubble over here, happily pecking away at the keys and feeling mostly liked by my readers. I'm a people pleaser and want people to like me. If I started to make bank on this blog (not that I could just snap my fingers and make that happen, anyway) I know I'd probably gain a few haters along the way. Not really worth it to me, although I'm fully aware I probably have some people who dislike me already without being 'big time'. Again, I prefer to be blissfully unaware right now.
I guess I'd see myself as a 'sell out' if I tried to make a run at blogging for real. I mean, even applying for BlogHer took a lot of pep talks from my inner self. I just felt like I held out so long and part of my 'thing' was NOT going the way of ads and money making with this blog. But in the end, I realize it can't hurt to continue writing from my heart, mostly for myself, and having a small bit of money come in along with that. I try to stay true to myself and don't agree to every giveaway because I do want this blog to stay true to my roots. But evolving a bit and focusing a little more on the 'business' side of blogging is also a good thing. Change is good. Having some gulit-free 'me' money to spend on a Starbucks treat, or a few new maternity clothes is also really awesome. I don't think many of my readers would fault me for that.
As a 'mommy blogger' and working mom, how do you balance your time between your life and blogging? What advice would you give other bloggers? -Lindsey R.
Ah, another 'balance' question but related to the act of blogging and not just life in general. I make the time to blog in the evenings after the kids go to bed. Sometimes if I have a break in my work day and I'm at home, I will work on the blog a bit then, too. I will read comments on my phone during the day but don't sit down to actually approve those comments until I'm at home on the computer. So I guess I have a system of how I can work blogging into my schedule and it's working well for the time being. I've definitely had phases when I cannot put the blog at the top of my priority list (i.e. newborn phases that turn into the entire first year of my kids' lives as they have been horrible sleepers). That time in the evenings seems to get a little tighter and blogging just doesn't fit into the day with little babies. I figure that it's totally normal to go through 'dry spells' on the blog and it makes it that much more fun when inspiration and the time to blog both align again.
My best advice to any blogger trying to find time to post and balance life? Make sure it's fun and that you don't mind carving out time into your day for the blog. You'll find a way if it's worth it to you even if you need to take a major break on regular posting. If it seems too stressful and not fun anymore, then take that break. Maybe you'll find your mojo again someday.
What do you like the best about blogging? What do you like the least?-Babytakesmanhattan
I love the sense of community, getting feedback and support, and ultimately I love the 'friends' I've made through this blog. Three of my closest real life friends in Milwaukee I have because of this blog. I think starting this blog right after I got married and moved to a brand new state was key--I needed new friends and found them through this form of social networking. Fist pound to the internet for that one. There are so many other girls whom I have an 'email relationship' with (not to sound creepy) all across the USA and beyond, and I sure do love email as a primary form of communication with friends;) Getting a comment on a post that says 'I can relate to this!' or 'Thank you for sharing this part of yourself, I needed to hear this today,' makes it worth every second spent behind this computer screen. So yes, the sense of community and connecting and forming relationships with other women who would never be in my life otherwise is the best part of blogging.
What do I like the least? I guess the vulnerability of putting it all out there for the world to see. But obviously that doesn't bother me *too* much if I'm still blogging publicly, right? I could also say that I really despise html and all of the technical stuff that comes with having a blog but whatever---I try not to confuse myself too often with all of that.
In your opinion, what are the top qualities to make a successful blogger? -Eric C.
My favorite bloggers have that amazing combination of honesty, sarcasm, and a bit of quirk that makes me excited to read what they have to say. Pretty photos of adorable kids never hurt, either. I think successful bloggers have to be relatable and down-to-earth, along with being great writers and story tellers. They take risks and aren't afraid to be sellouts if they are truly successful in the monetary sense ;)
Do you ever go back and edit or delete a previous post? -rgeddy
No, not unless I publish a post and later remember additional information (ramblings) that I wanted to include. But I've never dug through my archives and deleted any of the cringe-worthy, ancient posts from another time in my life. I figure those old posts are there and they are what they are, showing how much my life has changed over time in the past six years. What was I saying about change being good?
What would you recommend to someone who is trying to make their blog more 'successful' in terms of visits? -Sylvia Y.
Probably the biggest thing is reaching out and connecting to other bloggers. Comment on other blogs frequently. Eventually those bloggers will probably do the same for you. Keep writing, find inspiration, and then don't worry too much about the stats after that.
Do you find yourself seeing the world in a different light since blogging? For example, do you tend to notice the little things more? -bucketomonkeys
It's hard to say since I barely remember what life was like before blogging---simply because it was so long ago. I suppose I do think about events differently, as in 'this would make an excellent blog post' or 'crap, Cecelia is almost 20 months old so I better start mentally composing her monthly post.' But I don't know that I notice the little things as a blogger. I probably just think more like a blogger if that makes sense.
And now for pictures that do not make sense in this post, except that I usually blog about my kids and here they are! Can't write a post without pictures and this little photo series was almost too much cuteness for my heart to handle. Truman wanted to get in the crib with CC after her nap on Thursday. I obliged.
Plus, I'm going to miss Cecelia's pink crib and pink lanterns and nursery in general (assuming she is going to keep the crib in Truman's room, or if the baby is a boy I would considering painting it a more masculine color and moving her to a big bed). Must commemorate this nursery before it changes.
Hugs for brother.
Only a few bumps and bruises with two in the crib.
She just loves this kid.
Her big brother is pretty awesome.
Two more parts to the 'Internet Questions' await!

Those looks that CeCe gives Truman are precious. It is seriously making my heart want to explode!ReplyDelete
I have one thought on the comments piece. I frequently read blogs on my phone or iPad, and when I try to comment from a mobile device it only seems to work about half the time. If it doesn't work the first time, I rarely go back and try to post it again. Maybe the increase in mobile reading is part of the reason for low comment numbers. Or maybe I'm by myself with my phone freaking out when I try to type :)ReplyDelete
Totally agree with you on so many points about blogging... about the small "me" money (I call my income - if you can call it that- the baby gap bill) and "selling out". I will only do sponsored posts or accept freebies from companies I actually would buy (or do buy) products from and think my readers would be interested in. I've stopped follow so many blogs because they sold out and it was just post after post about crappy mascaras and dove bodywash (and I use dove body wash, but really that's not why I'm reading their blog).ReplyDelete
And I totally was head nodding about the vulnerability and hoping to fly low enough on the radar to stay away from the negativity. I love that IG is so supportive and friendly too.
Lastly, FYI... I read every.single.one. of your posts, but don't always comment. I HATE commenting from my phone because of the time it takes to load and then freezes if I move the cursor to fix an autocorrect and have to start over. I assume most people that read what I write just dont feel like commenting either, I do wish there was a "like" button.
Oh, thanks for switching your comments form... another reason I didnt comment much was I had to close your blog out of bloglovin, and they get the comment form to pop up in a new window. Not like its hard, but was just extra steps I skip sometimes on blogs that are set up that way.ReplyDelete
I read most of the blogs I read through Feedly and rarely click over to comment. Though I am trying to do this more because I know as a (super new) blogger I like to get comments! I've been reading your blog for a couple of years and have never left a comment before today :)ReplyDelete
Kayla - www.raindropsonmyflipflops.comReplies
HI Kayla! Welcome and thanks for the comment. Have fun with the blog!Delete
It's funny b/c the "bigger" a blog is, the less I comment. When I see that there are already so many comments, I just assume mine would get lost in the shuffle anyway.ReplyDelete
I loooove C's crib. Her whole nursery actually…I kind of hope that you have another girl just so that you can reuse her nursery :)
I think Danielle is right about more people reading blogs on their phones, thus less opportunity to comment. I still read blogs on my computer for the most part, so I can comment more easily.ReplyDelete
Your kids are two of the cutest kids on the planet. Awesome photos. I don't let Henry in the crib anymore because I'm afraid he'll bust it!
The way she looks at him! My kids are in time out for kicking eaxhother right now.ReplyDelete
I have very, very, very similar views on blogging and why I do it and what I like and what I don't like. My comments have gone down over the years in spite of increased readership. It's because we are all reading on phones and then the fact that a lot of commenting platforms are such a pain requiring extra steps. It has required a lot of discipline to bookmark posts after I read them and then go back later on my big computer to respond (and I prefer to not be on my phone/computer while with kids so it also becomes something I get lazy about as I get to it in my down time).ReplyDelete
I'm glad you are getting some Starbucks and mat clothes money :)
I have been reading for years and don't comment much here but find myself commenting all the time on IG. Why? Commenting through Bloglovin' especially the app is annoying. Also, Sometimes it is hard to find the button to make sure that you receive follow up emails if there are more comments. I like commenting on IG if I have a question because I know if you or someone else answers, they can tag my name and I will see the notification.ReplyDelete
Sorry - I am a reader but never post bc it takes effort. If this was tumblr and I could just "heart" it, I would. I'm lazy and often am holding a baby in one arm so commenting is difficult :)ReplyDelete
I have read your blog since before you had your son but I comment rarely, primarily b/c it is a real hassle to input a comment. But that doesn't mean I do not enjoy reading about your life and cute family!ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi, Jac! It's totally a hassle, I get it. But welcome and thanks for the comment.Delete
I am terrible at commenting. I have been reading your blog for years, and follow you on Instagram, but never comment. I don't have a real reason, just sometimes feel intimidated? I don't know! I love your blog and love how many posts have been going up.ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Jennifer! Thanks for commenting. Don't be intimidated;)Delete
Thank you for taking the time to comment on my blog. Sorry that commenting through Blogger can be a royal pain. I'm glad you are commenting despite that, and please email me if you are having issues.

2nd Marine Division
CAMP LEATHERNECK, Afghanistan, Aug. 18, 2011 - Marine Corps Cpl. Austin Barton of Charleston, S.C., keeps his "ear to the ground" here as he monitors enemy activity to inform and safeguard his fellow service members.
"I focus on what is going on in the battle space on a constant basis -- where the enemy is, where they are attacking," Barton explained. "I have to analyze that and provide [an] operational picture to the intelligence section. While doing that, I also provide an intelligence picture to the operations side."
Barton was recognized as his battalion's noncommissioned officer of the 3rd quarter for fiscal 2011, but he had built a reputation for being a stellar Marine before deploying to Afghanistan in February, said Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Richard Pinner, the collections chief for the division's intelligence section.
Knowing this, Pinner said, Barton's supervisors wanted him to assume high-profile tasks and responsibilities typically reserved for much higher-ranking Marines.
"He was put in the combat operations center, which is not a desirable billet; however, it's something that has to get done," said Pinner, who hails from Pensacola, Fla. "He was performing the duties and tasks of a lieutenant."
Barton, 22, has served in the Marine Corps for five years. He is a former rifleman who switched to the intelligence field when he re-enlisted. His infantry experience, Barton said, has given him an ability to see through the eyes of Marines on the ground without actually being there, a skill that prepared him well for the intelligence field.
"Understanding what [the infantryman] is looking for and understanding what they're seeing on the battlefield without actually being there aids you significantly when trying to provide an intelligence picture," he said. "[It] really helps, because you have the opportunity to speak from both sides and bring that middle ground when ideas don't meet."
Barton's job proficiency and leadership ability are well known in the intelligence section, said Marine Corps 1st Lt. Joseph Timoteo, the division's intelligence operations center watch officer.
"Corporal Barton is the most intense and enthusiastic Marine that I've met in the [intelligence section]," said Timoteo, a Philadelphia native. "The longer he's been here, the more enthusiastic he's become about his job. Then he pushes that off on others, and it's refreshing to see."
Barton said his drive to perform comes from his love of being a Marine in what he believes is the pinnacle of any Marine's career -- being deployed.
"My motivation comes from being out here [in Afghanistan]," he said. "Being deployed is the greatest part of [a Marine's] career, because that's when [they] are really affecting the rest of the world."

Fly Fishing Colorado is happy to offer a 4 Hour Fly Fishing float trip or a 2 Hour Wade Fly Fishing trip on the Upper Colorado River. If you would like to inquire about a custom trip, please call our office at 970-423-7031.
All gear, including up to 6 flies per person, will be provided. Guests over the age of 16 will need to provide a valid Colorado Fishing License. Colorado Fishing Licenses can be purchased online with Colorado Parks & Wildlife, Take Me Fishing and/or at most outdoors stores.
Our four hour float trips are perfect for both novice and experienced fisherman. The trip will meet at our Kremmling Outpost, located an hour from Summit County. This trip is unique in that each raft will have only one or two guests accompanied by one guide. The raft will stop at various points of interest along the Colorado River.
Venture out with Fly Fishing Colorado for 2 hours wading along some of the best fishing waters in the state. This trip makes the perfect father-son outing or will create lasting memories with that group of friends you haven't seen since college. Take in the incredible scenery of the Colorado River and hopefully catch a trout while you're at it.
All gear, including up to 6 flies per person, will be provided on every trip. Guests over the age of 16 will need to provide a valid Colorado Fishing License. Colorado Fishing Licenses can be purchased online with Colorado Parks & Wildlife, Take Me Fishing or at most outdoors stores.
Fishing locations will be predetermined by your guide based on water levels, water clarity, soil type, and the time of year. Our guides know the river intimately and have multiple years of fly fishing experience. They will make adjustments to your rig and flies accordingly to ensure you have maximum potential to be a successful angler.
This operation is conducted by Arkansas Valley Adventures.
We cannot guarantee that you will catch fish. Fly fishing is technical, and occasionally a first-timer will catch a fish. Sometimes it takes multiple trips to make your first catch. We pay close attention to what's currently biting, the "hot-spots" for the river and the flies that are working in any given season.
We suggest that you bring a camera, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and rain gear. You also should wear shoes that you don't mind getting wet and that will stay on your feet.

By Payroll and Entitlements Editorial Staff
The use of boilerplate language does not automatically undermine an ALJ's conclusion if he or she otherwise indicates what information was used to justify a negative credibility finding. Here, the claimant argued that the ALJ improperly relied on boilerplate language in discussing her credibility. Specifically, the claimant contended that the ALJ unduly relied on her daily activities as evidence that she could perform light work in jobs that existed in the national economy. The court determined that the ALJ went further than merely using boilerplate language in discussing the claimant's credibility. The ALJ's opinion contained a detailed discussion of the medical evidence in the case supporting the decision that the claimant was capable of light work with more restrictions than outlined by any agency doctor or psychologist. Moreover, the court reasoned that the ALJ did not equate the claimant's daily activities with the ability to work full time. Rather, the ALJ used the claimant's statements regarding her reported activities to assess the credibility of her statements concerning the intensity, persistence, or limiting effects of her symptoms. Furthermore, the court may only disturb an ALJ's credibility finding if it is patently wrong. The ALJ provided evidence-supported reasons for the credibility determination that the claimant's daily life demonstrated a high level of functioning and suggested she was not as limited as her allegations of disabling symptoms indicated. Because the ALJ properly evaluated the claimant's credibility and medical opinions in the case, the denial of benefits was affirmed (Bettie Burmester v. Commr., CA-7, No. 18-2106, April 5, 2019).

New "Purdue AD Mike Bobinski said basketball coaches have "unanimous support" for protected rivalries that would ensure biannual games. Purdue-Indiana and Michigan-Michigan State are the two big ones, and Northwestern-Illinois also was brought up. "I don't know if we'll be able to get to it for this year," Bobinski said, "but I think we'll get there for the reasonably near future, which is good.""
Frankly, it's insane that it didn't happen before this. Anyone associated with Big Ten basketball moans about the reduced importance of regular season games and you don't do everything possible to preserve the small number of games which move the needle regardless of the seasons the participants are having? Should have happened from the very first moment the league went to unbalanced schedules but hey, what's a couple of decades between friends?

Games Submitted
Reincarnation: Riley's Out Agai by BgroupProduction
Guide the demon on his path to locating the reincarny Riley and taking him back to hell with you. Be sure to play the first game to know what is going on. However, it can still be fun without knowing too. Question to all fans of the game: Would you like a 3rd one, and if so, would you rather it take place in a circus or a voodoo town? Either way i got some really cool ideas for it. Update – 4-21-09 The people have spoken and I have listened. I've had the locker recoded to make it easier. As far as the maze goes, when i originally wrote the game back in 2008 I thought the maze would of been a fun idea. It was a pain not only for my coder, but you guys as well and I'll never do a maze again. I'm sorry!
Reincarnation: A Hillbilly Holiday by BgroupProduction
Reincarnation: A Hillbilly Holiday or AHH is the second mini in the reincarnation series. It's a small time killer while you wait for "Let the Evil Times Roll."
Reincarnation: In The Name Of Evil by BgroupProduction
I'm glad to announce Reincarnation (mini 3): In The Name Of Evil. Help the demon find the escaped soul and send him back to hell after making sure that soul has converted back to his old ways.
Space Shower by BgroupProduction
Help the demon capture three Reincarnies in this third installment of the series! Well, it has been over a year since I have started this game. You can actually see how much has changed since the start of this game by playing the past couple of minis. I'm sorry for the long wait and I hope it was worth it. This time the demon is sent to capture 3 Reincarnies who are now hiding out in New Orleans, Louisiana. Find out if they are up to no good and send them back to hell to please Luke! I restarted the kickstarter.com project if you want to redonate @ http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1878730846/reincarnation-bring-evil-to-life There are 10 medals in this game.
Space Shower by BgroupProduction
This new Reincarnation is concerned a mini but is actually a decent size (it has one more scene than ADDO.) It takes place in a church where another escaped soul Reincarny is dwelling. Pick up objects around the room, combine them and let your evil skills take care of business.
Gingerbread cooking by BgroupProduction
Take a road trip with our demon friend and find if the Reincarny is back to his evil ways. Thanks for all the support so far!
Brilliant Blocks_2 by BgroupProduction
It has been 2 years (released the first one on 10/29/2008) since I have started making the Reincarnation series, and I wanted to share with everyone a special Halloween episode in honor of the 2 year anniversary. It was kind of a rush job (finished making the game in less than a month), but I feel it came out very well. Thanks for being supportive!
Fly Run by BgroupProduction
This should give you a small dose of EVIL! Here is a mini Reincarnation to hold you over till the next larger one comes out. Sorry for such a long wait on the next one.

Making room for feed additives in piglet diet formulation
Organic acid use in piglet diets can be considered routine nowadays. Yet, high levels of organic acids in feed formulation take up a lot of otherwise useful space in the feed. Replacing a portion of organic acids with a more powerful additive can create room to further enhance feed formulation or add more economical raw materials at no additional cost.
Swine producers apply organic acids to feed mainly to combat microbial and fungal contamination that causes the deterioration of feed and to decrease the pH in animals' stomachs. Constant treatment with organic acids has the added benefit of preventing recontamination of feed, whereas methods such as heat treatment do not.
A number of factors support the rationale for dietary acidification for juvenile animals, especially weaning pigs. At weaning, piglets often register limited digestive and absorption capacity, typically due to insufficient hydrochloric acid and pancreatic enzymes secretion. Add on top of this, stress associated with the weaning process, sudden feed consistency and environmental changes - all of which can have a negative effect on the digestion, feed absorption and intestinal microflora of the piglets.
E. coli inhibition and beneficial bacteria promotion
Various studies show that acidification of piglet diets at reported pH levels ranging from 4.36 to 5.79 can reduce the coliform and E. coli counts along the intestinal tract, decreasing scouring and mortality of piglets (Table 1). Organic acids positively influence the growth of Lactobacilli in the gastrointestinal tract, which may competitively inhibit the proliferation of E. coli and produces lactic acid and other metabolites which lower the pH or have an antimicrobial effect and inhibit E. coli even more.
Table 1. Change in the bacterial flora of the intestinal tract using Biotonic® Top3
Inclusion levels
To decrease the buffer capacity and feed pH levels, organic acids are typically used in the feed manufacturing process. These typically include formic acid, benzoic acid, lactic acid and acetic acid. Dietary acidification by a mixture of organic acids decreases the pH value of swine diets by 0.15 to 0.98 pH units, depending on the inclusion levels (varying from 0.5% to 3.0%) and diet composition. The inclusion level of the organic acids varies considerably in every feed manufacturing plant, depending also on the type of organic acids, the carrier and if the acids are added alone or blended.
Replacement of single acids in the diet
The feed formulation is a delicate process that must balance the nutrient requirements of animals at each production stage, the nutritional value of various feed raw materials, premixes, vitamins and minerals along with price and availability considerations. Space can be an issue, because trying to include all ingredients at an optimum level is not easy. Piglet diets that also contain organic acids pose an additional challenge.
One approach is to replace part of the single acids with a more powerful feed additive, thereby making space in the feed formulation in a cost effective way. Biotronic® Top line combines the unique Biomin® Permeabilizing Complex, a phytochemical, a selected blend of organic acids and their salts, fully utilizing a unique synergism in their mode of action. The Biomin® Permeabilizing Complex boosts the activity of the active ingredients and facilitates their entry in the cytoplasm by permeabilizing the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. Replacing 2 to 3 kg of a single acid with 1 kg of Biotronic® Top3 boosts the antimicrobial effect of the acid blend, reducing the bacterial load and improving animal growth performance. When looking to create space in feed formulation, it is generally recommended to use this 2:1 ratio to replace a single acid with Biotronic® Top line products.
Maximizing space in the practice
Several field and scientific trials have been conducted to replace benzoic acid and formic acid in different commercial formulations in piglet diets. In one recent case, a producer in Germany wanted to reduce the space taken up by the acids in the formulation by entirely replacing 6 kg per ton of a product based on formic acid salt (ACID) with Biotronic® Top3, provided that it could be done with no additional cost. For that trial, we doubled the recommended replacement ratio to 4:1, substituting the acid in question by Biotronic® Top3. The feed formulation also contained other acids that were not changed in either the initial or replacement diets (Table 2).

The acid component of the replacement diet using Biotronic® Top3 cost 19% less than the initial diet using the product based on formic acid salt (ACID); a savings of € 3.60/ ton. After evaluating the growth performance in a field trial using 380 weaning piglets (Figure 1) it was clear that the replacement of the 0.60% of ACID with 0.15% of Biotronic® Top3caused no change in growth performance, though it did generate an extra profit of € 0.5 per piglet. The Biotronic® group had higher feed intake and lower FCR (Figures 2 and 3).

Figure 2. Average daily feed intake (g) in the trial groups after 24 days of trial

Room for more performance
The extra space that is spared in the feed formulation can be used to include other feed additives that can further enhance growth performance or support animal health. A mycotoxin deactivator or phytogenic feed additive figure among the most common ones paired with organic acids. Having extra space also allows for greater flexibility regarding the inclusion level of the raw materials to optimize the energy or vitamin/mineral levels, or costs.
Organic acids are essential in the piglet feed, especially in the weaning period, but at the same time they can be a limiting factor for the feed formulation. Biotronic® Top line products can replace part of the organic acids in the formulation with additional economical benefits for the farmer. The modulation of the bacterial load in the intestinal tract together with a more efficient usage of the feed by the animal will not only cover the costs of the product, but bring also an added benefit.

Atomic and molecular layer deposition for ultrathin layers
Atomic and molecular layer deposition for ultrathin layers
Packaging materials are typically laminates consisting of several layers of different polymers and aluminum foil. Sorting of such materials is challenging, which prevents efficient material and energy recovery. Atomic and Molecular Layer Deposition (ALD/MLD) can be used for creating thin and flexible barrier films for environmentally friendly packaging solutions. In addition, the unique nature of these technologies enables building other functionalities also for increasing number of other end applications and materials.

text: From North Vancouver's Green Leaf Brewing Co at Lonsdale Quay comes their "Modern Gentleman Aged IPA" a barrel aged IPA. The beer pours a cloudy orange colour with a tan head. The aroma consists of oak, fruit and floral hops. The flavour is of oak, fruit, grapes, earth, hops bitterness and some hints of lingering Brett funk. I would associate this beer more with a Barleywine than a Double IPA. The alcohol content comes in at 9% with an IBU of 80. For what I was expecting this beer was a little odd but I did quite enjoy it.

According to a recent study of Veritas employees spend two hours every day with searching for needed data. The consequence: less efficiency and productivity. How to solve this problem? Surely with the help of smart data management or appropriate data maintenance, as the study reveals. Those who want to take countermeasures immediately, should make use of Keeeb: Thanks to various interfaces to data sources such as SharePoint, Salesforce, Office 365, Box, and Confluence, the Enterprise Intelligence Platform is quickly implemented. With that, the desired efficiency and productivity enhancement is realized fast and »finding instead of searching« is the name of the game.
"The result of the Veritas study is hard to believe", says Maximilian Kirst, Business Development Manager at Keeeb. "Two hours per day and employee? I do not want to calculate, how many hours the whole workforce is searching every day! Anyway, this survey, carried out in 15 countries with 1,500 corporate representatives, demonstrates: With our platform for finding, curating, and collaborating knowledge we solve a big efficiency problem within organizations – in no time."
Quickly more efficiency and productivity with Keeeb's Enterprise Intelligence Platform
With Keeeb's solution company knowledge can be simply found with every Google search – prominently top right next to Google's search results. Therewith, Keeeb displays company knowledge where employees search anyway: on Google. Thanks to the open interface, the solution can be connected to every data source where the needed information is hidden in – e.g. SharePoint, Salesforce, Office 365, Box, or Confluence.
Beyond finding internal and external information easily and fast, Keeeb can do much more: The solution allows to collect and curate search results in a structured way and edit them intuitively within seconds.
Keeeb's Enterprise Intelligence Platform – Overview of key aspects
Keeeb's Enterprise Intelligence Platform enables organizations for the first time to establish one continuous workflow for finding, curating, and collaborating knowledge without the need to move existing data or change user behavior:
- Bundle data repositories in one unified platform: For the first time organizations can transform a simple Google search into a complex universal search that yields not only public knowledge, but personal, professional, and people knowledge that was previously beyond the reach of browsers (e.g. Salesforce, Box, SharePoint, OneDrive, Office 365, Confluence, third-party knowledge providers, individual systems).
- Discover knowledge intuitively: Organizations are able to turn the cumbersome search process into an intuitive, automated knowledge discovery by integrating all knowledge bundled into familiar digital environments presenting it at the point of application where people are used to search.
- Curate and collaborate knowledge efficiently: By making collecting, curating, sharing, and collaborating information with Keeeb easier and faster than ever before, organizations can significantly enhance their productivity and drive the flow of knowledge.
"A personal Google for everyone" – The Wall Street Journal
Keeeb's Enterprise Intelligence Platform unleashes enterprise intelligence, maximizes the productivity and performance of employees, revolutionizes digital engagement with information, and accelerates commercial, social, and personal progress of organizations.
To this end, Keeeb connects all existing knowledge from public, personal, people, and professional sources in one unified platform, transforms the manual search into an intuitive, automated discovery by integrating knowledge into familiar digital environments presenting it at the point of application, and enhances workflow productivity by making collecting, curating, sharing, and collaborating knowledge easier and faster than ever before.

Bond won last year's VW Cup title for Tony Gilham's squad but will now move into the Clio Cup with it starting at this coming weekend's third and fourth rounds of 2019 at Donington Park.
The 25-year-old, backed by Oakleaf Heating and Wrightsure Insurance, commented: "It's been quite a late deal and my first run in the car will be during tomorrow's (Thursday) two pre-event test sessions!
"I'm also respectful of the grid – the drivers on it are at the top of their game.
"A new championship and a new car… it is going to be a big learning curve but I've got high expectations of myself after what I've achieved before. As the season unfolds I'd certainly hope to be in the running for a couple of wins and podiums."
Currently Team HARD leads the drivers' standings with Max Coates and also the teams' championship thanks to the efforts as well of its other drivers Jade Edwards and Ethan Hammerton.
Team HARD Principal Tony Gilham said: "We're very excited that Jamie will be in a fourth car for us on the Clio Cup grid.
"He's come up through our system having won our scholarship in 2015 and then the VW Cup title with us last year. He's also tested our British Touring Car Championship car and shown himself to be very capable – the BTCC is where he wants to be so this is a great shop window moment for him to show what he's capable of in front of the live ITV cameras and very big race day crowds."
This weekend's two Clio Cup races take place on Sunday (28 Apr) at Donington and action from them will be shown during ITV4's comprehensive live coverage of the day which also includes the latest rounds of the BTCC.
