> 5 Tips for Better Work-Life Balance
> Beat burnout by making more time for the activities and people that matter most to you. If you're finding it more challenging than ever to juggle the demands of your job and the rest of your life, you're not alone. Many people are putting in extra hours, or using their smartphones to be on call when they're not physically at work.
>  
> "A lot of people are having a more difficult time finding balance in their lives because there have been cutbacks or layoffs where they work. They're afraid it may happen to them, so they're putting in more hours," says psychologist Robert Brooks, PhD, co-author of The Power of Resilience: Achieving Balance, Confidence, and Personal Strength in Your Life.
>  
> "But even if you don't have much control over the hours you have to work, you can ask yourself: In what other ways am I bringing greater enjoyment into my life?" Brooks says. "Focus your time and attention on things you can control."
>  
> Here are five ways to bring a little more balance to your daily routine:
> 1. Build downtime into your schedule.
> When you plan your week, make it a point to schedule time with your family and friends, and activities that help you recharge.
>  
> If a date night with your spouse or a softball game with friends is on your calendar, you'll have something to look forward to and an extra incentive to manage your time well so you don't have to cancel.
>  
> "It helps to be proactive about scheduling," says Laura Stack, a productivity expert in Denver and author of SuperCompetent: The Six Keys to Perform at Your Productive Best. "When I go out with my girlfriends, we all whip out our cell phones and put another girls' night out on the calendar for 1 month later."
>  
> Stack also plans an activity with her family, like going to a movie or the park, every Sunday afternoon. "We do this because if there's nothing on the schedule, time tends to get frittered away and the weekend may end without us spending quality time together," she says.
>  
> Michael Neithardt, an actor and television commercial producer in New York City, wakes up 3 hours before he has to leave for work so he can go for a run and spend some time with his wife and baby.
>  
> "A lot of my friends tend to wake up, shower, and go straight to work. And they often complain about having no time to do anything," he says. "I find that if I can get those 3 hours in the morning, I have a more productive and peaceful workday. I can sure tell the difference when I don't."
>  
> 2. Drop activities that sap your time or energy.
> "Many people waste their time on activities or people that add no value -- for example, spending too much time at work with a colleague who is constantly venting and gossiping," says Marilyn Puder-York, PhD, a psychologist and executive coach in New York and Connecticut.
>  
> Her advice: Take stock of activities that don't enhance your career or personal life, and minimize the time you spend on them.
>  
> You may even be able to leave work earlier if you make a conscious effort to limit the time you spend on the web and social media sites, making personal calls, or checking your bank balance. "We often get sucked into these habits that are making us much less efficient without realizing it," Stack says.
>  
> 3. Rethink your errands.
> Consider whether you can outsource any of your time-consuming household chores or errands.
>  
> Could you order your groceries online and have them delivered? Hire a kid down the street to mow your lawn? Have your dry cleaning picked up and dropped off at your home or office? Order your stamps online so you don't have to go to the post office? Even if you're on a tight budget, you may discover that the time you'll save will make it worth it.
>  
> Stack also suggests trading services with friends. Offer to do tasks that you enjoy or that you were planning to do anyway.
>  
> "You could exchange gardening services for babysitting services," Stack says. "If you like to cook, you could prepare and freeze a couple of meals and give them to a friend in exchange for wrapping your holiday gifts."
>  
> 4. Get moving.
> It's hard to make time for exercise when you have a jam-packed schedule, but it may ultimately help you get more done by boosting your energy level and ability to concentrate.
>  
> "Research shows exercise can help you to be more alert," Brooks says. "And I've noticed that when I don't exercise because I'm trying to squeeze in another half hour of writing, I don't feel as alert."
>  
> Samantha Harris, a lawyer who works for a nonprofit organization in Philadelphia, goes to her gym 2 or 3 mornings a week before her family wakes up. "It's been a real boost in terms of the way I feel for the rest of the day," she says. "I feel like my head is clearer and I've had a little time to myself."
>  
> 5. Remember that a little relaxation goes a long way.
> Don't assume that you need to make big changes to bring more balance to your life. Brooks recommends setting realistic goals, like leaving the office earlier 1 night per week.
>  
> "Slowly build more activities into your schedule that are important to you," he says. "Maybe you can start by spending an hour a week on your hobby of carpentry, or planning a weekend getaway with your spouse once a year."
>  
> Even during a hectic day, you can take 10 or 15 minutes to do something that will recharge your batteries. "Take a bath, read a trashy novel, go for a walk, or listen to music," Stack says. "You have to make a little time for the things that ignite your joy."

> Uber has launched an accessibility web site in the US. The site gives policy information and provides a contact link to a dedicated accessibility team.  https://accessibility.uber.com <https://accessibility.uber.com/> 
>  
> Riders who are blind or low-vision:
> Uber is helping increase the mobility, efficiency, and independence of transportation for riders who are blind or have low vision, with features and capabilities like:
>  
> •VoiceOver iOS technology. With VoiceOver iOS and wireless braille display compatibility, the Uber app makes it easier for riders who are blind to get from A to B at the push of a button.
> ◦Here’s how to use the Uber app’s iOS Accessibility Features
> https://help.uber.com/h/902465fa-f227-49f1-aee4-59940446e792 <https://help.uber.com/h/902465fa-f227-49f1-aee4-59940446e792>
> ◦OR Listen to Mike May’s podcast on how to use the Uber app’s VoiceOver iOS feature http://www.mysticaccesspodcast.com/audio/uberdemo21min.mp3 <http://www.mysticaccesspodcast.com/audio/uberdemo21min.mp3>
>  
> •Cashless payments. Uber’s cashless payment option simplifies the payment process, reducing the need for riders who are blind or low vision to worry about counting out cash payments or exchanging bills with a driver.
>  
> •On-Demand transportation. The Uber app makes it easier for riders with disabilities to get from A to B at the push of a button. With the Uber app, riders who are blind or low vision no longer have to prearrange rides through a dispatcher or resort to other, less convenient, means of hailing a ride.
>  
> •Real-time GPS. Uber uses GPS to map and follow every trip in real time. This gives riders peace-of-mind knowing that efficient routes are being utilized, and help eliminates the risk of fraud.
>  
> •Equal Access for All. Every trip request you make is automatically matched to a nearby driver by the Uber app, reducing opportunities for unlawful discrimination to interfere with the process of securing reliable, affordable transportation. For riders who are blind or low-vision and may be traveling with service animals, Uber’s Code of Conduct and Service Animal Policy clearly requires driver-partners to comply with all applicable laws regarding the transportation of service animals.
>  
> •Share your ETA and location. Riders who are blind or low vision can easily share their ride details, including the specific route and estimated time of arrival, with friends or family for extra peace of mind. Friends or family members will receive a link where they can find out in real time the name and photo of the driver, the vehicle, and track where you are on the map until you arrive at your destination —  all without downloading the Uber app.

> Uber's never-ending stream of lawsuits
> by Heather Kelly   @heatherkelly
> August 11, 2016: 10:30 AM ET 
>  
> Since its launch in 2009, Uber has been juggling a nonstop barrage of lawsuits from governments, drivers, passengers and competitors. Some have been settled out of court while others have dragged on indeterminably.
>  
> In the U.S., there are more than 70 pending federal suits against the company and many more in state courts. There are also battles taking places in governments and courts around the world. Even with an estimated value of more than $60 billion, those billable hours have to be taking a toll as Uber expands to more than 400 cities around the world.
>  
> Drivers vs. Uber
> It's of the biggest battles Uber has been fighting since it launched. The company says full- and part-time drivers who ferry passengers around are not employees, but contractors -- and that factors into a large number of ongoing lawsuits.
>  
> In case you can't keep track of all of Uber's challenges -- and you're not alone -- here's a closer look at some of the most significant and controversial lawsuits the company currently faces in the U.S.
>  
> Employee benefits
> In one of the biggest ongoing class action lawsuits, drivers have accused Uber of misclassifying them as contractors when they're actually treated as employees.
>  
> Lawyers for California and Massachusetts drivers in the case reached a tentative $100 million settlement earlier this year that would not change drivers' statuses, but would add certain protections and allow them to solicit tips. The settlement has not been approved and a number of drivers' groups are unhappy with the deal. Only drivers in Massachusetts and California would be eligible for the payout, but drivers across the U.S. would gain new termination protections.
>  
> Related: News anchor quits to become a Lyft driver
>  
> The New York Taxi Workers Alliance, a union representing 5,000 Uber drivers, filed a suit in federal court against Uber on behalf of 10 drivers for misclassification. That proposed class action suit claims drivers are employees and therefor eligible for minimum wage, overtime and expense reimbursement.
>  
> Termination
> In Austin, Texas, multiple drivers are suing Uber and Lyft for back pay and benefits after the companies abruptly stopped service in the city. When the ride-sharing companies lost a vote that would have required stricter background checks, they ceased service in the city a day later. Drivers claim they should have received more notice and are asking for back pay and benefits.
>  
>  
> Passengers vs. Uber
> Insisting drivers are contractors and not employees can also limit Uber's liability when individual drivers do something illegal. However, that hasn't stopped riders from naming Uber in numerous state and federal lawsuits.
>  
> Accessibility
> Uber has reached a preliminary settlement with the National Federation of the Blind, which sued the company for discriminating against passengers with service animals. There were reports of drivers refusing to pick up passengers and one incident where a driver locked a service animal in the trunk. As part of the class action settlement, Uber will require drivers to take service animals and suspend drivers who refuse.
>  
> Related: Uber sells its China business to big local rival
>  
> Price Fixing
> An Uber passenger has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Uber and its CEO Travis Kalanick for price fixing. Conservationist Spencer Meyer claims Uber colluded with drivers to raise prices, and is seeking class action status.
>  
> The case got dramatic in July when the judge criticized Uber and Kalanick of playing dirty by hiring investigators to look into Meyer. The judge accused the investigative firm of "fraudulent and arguably criminal conduct" and forbade Uber from using the resulting information in court.
>  
> Safety
> There have been multiple complaints against Uber drivers over assault, rape, and car accidents. Many of the cases ultimately circle back to issues with Uber's background check policies, and whether or not Uber is responsible for the actions of contractors.
>  
> Two women are suing the company for fraud and punitive damages after being sexually assaulted by drivers in unrelated incidents. In May, a judge denied Uber's claim that it couldn't be held responsible for the drivers' behavior because they were contractors, which could have larger implications for similar lawsuits.
>  
> Another woman filed a lawsuit against Uber in July, claiming the company was negligent in her 2014 rape by a driver. The woman drank from a complimentary bottle of water during her Uber ride and woke up the next day naked in her room. The driver was convicted of criminal sexual battery, but the victim is suing Uber for punitive damages.
>  
> In July, the company settled a wrongful death lawsuit. A six-year-old girl died after being hit by an on-duty Uber driver in San Francisco in 2013. The terms of the settlement were not made public.
>  
>  
> Governments vs. Uber
> In its mad rush to expand to as many cities as possible, Uber has frequently ignored existing regulations until called out by local governments. The resulting battles have taken the form of lawsuits, but also local votes, fines, and lobbying and negotiating with officials.
>  
> Background checks
> The biggest issue for Uber in cities is background checks. Uber doesn't require fingerprint checks like taxis. It screens potential drivers using their name and social security number. Critics claim this can miss some known criminals, but Uber says it's just as thorough. Fingerprinting would exclude potential drivers who were charged but not convicted of crimes, and it would also slow the on-boarding process for new drivers.
>  
> In Austin, a city council member who supports Uber has filed a suit to overturn the ballot measure requiring fingerprint checks.
>  
> Uber settled a lawsuit in San Francisco and Los Angeles for up to $25 million over its claims that it had the "gold standard" of background checks, though it did not have to make any changes to its actual background check process. It settled two earlier class action suits for $28.5 million over the same language and its "misleading" Safe Ride Fee.

> FDA Publishes Vending Machine Labeling Guidance Documents
>  Aug 16, 2016
>  
> The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the availability of a Small Entity Compliance Guide (SECG) and draft guidance to help businesses comply with the agency’s final rule on calorie labeling for vending machine foods.
>  
> The final rule, “Food Labeling: Calorie Labeling of Articles of Food in Vending Machines,” was published in the Federal Register on December 1, 2014. The rule implements the vending machine labeling provisions of the Affordable Care Act that require disclosure of calorie information at the point of purchase for food sold by persons who own or operate 20 or more vending machines.
>  
> The SECG is intended to help small businesses comply with the rule and restates the requirements of the final rule in plain language. The draft guidance provides additional information and responds to frequently asked questions about the vending machine labeling requirements.
>
