The new legal guide section takes on the Federal Trade Commission's controversial "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising" (the "Guidelines") that took effect on December 1, 2009. The FTC Guidelines call for bloggers, Tweeters, Facebook users, and other online publishers to disclose "material connections" they have with companies whose products or services they endorse. The Guidelines also say that bloggers may be held liable for making misleading or unsubstantiated claims about a product or service.
The Guidelines caused a bit of an uproar when the FTC announced them back in October. While some of the criticisms are no doubt well founded, there also are plenty of misunderstandings and exaggerations out there. We wanted to address some of these errors, as well as to focus on the practical side of complying with the Guidelines. On this front, we've got some good news: there's little that can't be handled with some common sense and transparency.
Our new legal guide section helps you understand what types of publishing activities are covered by the Guidelines, what constitutes a product or service "endorsement," and how to go about disclosing a relationship. Putting aside a few gray areas, the Guidelines require disclosure of only relatively established relationships with companies—like getting paid, participating in a network marketing program, or receiving a steady stream of freebies—and making disclosure is simple and straightforward. The legal guide also looks at recent public statements from the FTC staff suggesting that the agency is interested in educating rather than suing bloggers and social media users. Overall, it's fair to say the picture is not as grim as commonly supposed.


Anything that makes Leftists and the corrupt media heads explode I'm totally for.
NY Post reports President Trump on Sunday tweeted out a video of him body-slamming World Wrestling Entertainment Chairman Vince McMahon whose face was obscured by the CNN logo.
The tweet, which said, "#FraudNewsCNN #FNN," linked to a video of him decking, beating and then shaving off McMahon's hair, the husband of Linda McMahon, Trump's head of the Small Business Administration.
Trump has been in the ring with CNN since the cable news network removed a story that linked an associate of his with a Russian bank.
Three CNN employees also resigned over the article.
Go Trump, CNN deserves it and much more!

African leaders discuss relationship with ICC
Possible mass withdrawal from Hague-based court being debated at two-day African Union summit in Ethiopia's capital.
The summit is to be held at the African Union headquarters in the Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa [Al Jazeera]
African leaders have begun a two-day meeting to discuss the continent's relationship with the International Criminal Court among other issues.
The first meeting on Friday, dubbed the extraordinary session of the executive council of the African Union, is to be followed by the session of the assembly in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital and headquarters of the continental bloc.
The two-day summit is expected to be attended by Sudanese President Omar al Bashir, who has been indicted by the ICC on war crimes charges and genocide in Sudan's war-torn Darfur.
The AU has demanded that proceedings against Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta linked to the 2007-2008 post-election violence be dropped.
Kenyatta faces crimes against humanity along with his Vice President William Ruto, who is already on trial at the Hague, Netherlands.
The meeting is also expected to discuss a possible mass withdrawal from the ICC, although leading African figures, including Kofi Annan, the former UN secretary-general, and retired Archbishop Desmond Tutu, have urged African leaders not to withdraw support.
In his opening speech at the summit, Ethiopia's foreign minister slammed the ICC for its "unfair" and "totally unacceptable" treatment of Africa.
"The manner in which the Court has been operating, particularly its unfair treatment of Africa and Africans, leaves much to be desired," Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told ministers and delegates at the opening of the meeting.
Kenyatta's bid
Many African countries, whose leaders have complained that the ICC only targets Africans, are signatories to the Rome Statute which set the stage for the formation of the court.
Al Jazeera's Malcolm Webb, reporting from Addis Ababa, said only a handful of countries were advocating a withdrawal from the court.
He said countries like Nigeria did not have a problem with the court while South Africa had not decided on pulling out.
Thirty-four African states are signatories to the Rome Statute.
The summit comes as Kenyatta launches a fresh bid to have the ICC case against him stopped.
He cited "serious, sustained and wide-ranging abuse on the process of the court carried out by" three witnesses against him in collaboration with the court's investigators, according to Kenya's Daily Nation newspaper.
Kenyatta alleges his witnesses have been intimidated or interfered with to change their testimony "for reward", the newspaper said.
In an application made late on Thursday, the daily said, his defence team wants the judges to either stop the case permanently or hold a hearing where the issue will be resolved conclusively before his trial begins on November 12.
Kenyatta's lawyers have said that if it is found that those involved abused the court process, "it would necessitate a permanent stay of the proceedings".
In July two witnesses who were due to testify in Kenyatta's trial withdrew over security concerns, the ICC said.
The court also dropped a third witness's evidence, saying it it did not consider it necessary.
Fatou Bensouda, the ICC's chief prosecutor, has previously accused Kenya's government of not protecting witnesses.

Somethin' Else is considered to be one of the greatest jazz/hard bop LPs of all time. Miles Davis is noted for his great contributions to the album. It was one of the few recordings he made for Blue Note Records. The Penguin Guide to Jazz selected this as one of its core collections. The record is known for its frenetic tempos and quiet tones. Miles Davisí frenetic pace was something that would be emulated for years to come. The album was released in 1959, but due to its popularity among jazz fans it has been re-released a number of times.

Late November to end December is a wonderful time to visit Bermuda when so many cool activities are scheduled in the island which you can never experience otherwise. The average air temperature during hovers around 66.5ºF and the sea temperature around 67.5ºF, humidity around 70%.
So weather remains pleasant. Although it may not be ideal to swim during this time, all public beaches in Bermuda remain open, and lounging on the sand to enjoy the sun can be a great experience. Hotel rates touch the lowest during this period and special packages are offered.
1) The Tree Lighting Ceremony held in Hamilton City actually marks the beginning of the Christmas season in Bermuda. This is the event during which Santa Claus makes his first appearance of the year. The event is held next to the City Hall & Art Center where a tree is illuminated at around 5:30pm. Following this Santa Claus interacts with kids. Choirs and various bands of the island perform.
2) Santa Claus Parade is next held at Hamilton. The streets of Hamilton city get lined up with hundreds of visitors and islanders who watch the parade performed by bands and many dance groups including Gombeys. Many colorful floats with their own themes also take part in the parade.
3) An annual Family Christmas Evening is held at Carter House usually in late November or early December. Carter House is an 18th century small house & one of Bermuda's oldest and located in St. David's. It's now a museum. Both Carter House and replica of an early settlers dwelling on the grounds are decorated in period style. Those days Christmas tree was not available.
The houses are decorated with cedar, palmetto, magnolia leaves, fruits, foliages etc. Fire is lit up at the fireplace and candles are lit to add to the Christmas charm & ambience. Local food & beverages like Bermuda fish chowder, ginger bread, cookies, mulled wine are served. Then children have a fun time as Santa appears with a sack full of gifts. The event is free to all, donation accepted.
4) Christmas Walkabout organized by Bermuda National Trust in St. George is a highly popular event. The walk passes by several old traditional homes that are decorated for the special occasion, and this is accompanied by live music and performances. Special shopping deals are also offered.
5) Another spectacular event which is well attended by tourists is the Christmas Boat Parade held biennially at the Hamilton Harbor. Number of boats sponsored by different organizations and glamorously decorated with lights and other decorative materials bearing individual themes parade in a circular route on Hamilton harbor. Thousands watch the boat parade from shore and also from harbor-side hotels.
6) Christmas Eve (December 24) services are offered in various churches across the island. One of the special experience is to join the traditional service of lessons and carol singing in St. Peter's Church with Their Majesties Choristers.
7) Large number of expatriates living in the island as well as visitors flock to Elbow Beach on the morning of December 25th to enjoy and celebrate Christmas on one of the best beaches of the island. The celebration is accompanied with music, food and wine.
8) Boxing Day is celebrated in the island on December 26th. While this is a public holiday and most shops & establishments remain closed, it's a great day to watch the colorful Gombeys' Troupes perform. They dance down several main streets of the island on this day.
Kings Square - the town center of St. George is one of the best places in the island to spend the night of December 31 and welcome the new year. The town corporation usually organizes live band & entertainment at the square. This is followed by fireworks and onion dropping (a huge illuminated onion like structure is lowered at Town Hall) to celebrate Bermuda's onion tradition. Food and drinks are on sale at the square. The event usually starts at 8:30pm.

Home Guest Viewpoint Understanding Nigerian Army's Role In Defending Nigeria's Sovereignty – By Philip Agbese
Guest Viewpoint
Understanding Nigerian Army's Role In Defending Nigeria's Sovereignty – By Philip Agbese
247ureports
I recall that a section of the polity has decided to drag the Nigerian Army into the murky water of politics for their selfish reasons. This arose from the charge given by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces President Muhammadu Buhari for the Nigeria Army to deal ruthlessly with those who intend to snatch ballot boxes during the elections or engage in acts of thuggery aimed at disrupting the polls.
I must confess that I am amazed as to how the PDP bigwigs and sympathizers have blown the issue out of proportion. They forgot that for the credibility of the polls to be achieved, there ought to be a level of security in place to guard against vices such as ballot box snatching, vote buying and other evil acts associated with elections in this country.
While I am not against these folks airing their opinion on issues they have reservations, I am however taken aback with the way and manner they have so politicized the issue with the aim of misleading the unsuspecting members of the public to believe that there is indeed something sinister in the directive.
Yes, the Chief of Army Staff addressed his principal officers that included the General Officers Commanding the various divisions in the country to remind them of the task at hand which is necessary to safeguard the territorial integrity of the country and the need for the troops to respect the constituted authorities. I see nothing wrong with this. And I wonder how the PDP interpreted or is interpreting issues, especially in the build-up to the elections.
It even gets confusing when it is common knowledge that over time, the Nigerian Army in discharging its constitutionally recognized and authorized mandate, focuses on two cardinal objectives, and they are subservience to constituted authority and the respect for human rights.
This is also sufficing to add that the Nigeria Army has overtime provided that needed support to the Nigerian police in the effective discharge of its duties in times of elections and other emergencies. And if this is and has been the case, why cry wolf where none exist? I think that the members of the general public should resist the antics of some unscrupulous elements hell-bent on causing disaffection in the polity to win the sympathy of the electorates with some days left to the general elections.
There are abound instances where the Nigerian Army had ensured that voters carry out their civic responsibility without fear or favour. The Ekiti and Osun states elections are glaring examples of the invaluable role the Nigerian Army plays in entrenching and sustaining democracy in Nigeria. Ordinarily, Nigerians should not have any cause for worry or concern if they do not have ulterior motives during the elections.
But those that want to incite and cause mayhem should have every reason to be afraid because I think that any action that negates peace and tranquility would and should be resisted by the Nigerian Army. And this should give every true lover of democracy a cause for concern.
The desperation to rig the election at all cost is what has driven the PDP to begin to act towards every other citizen even worse than what Boko Haram have done in North East Nigeria.
This desperation led by Obasanjo and some Governors to return an Atiku Abubakar who has become desperate as to drag the Nigerian Army despite its apolitical nature into politics is what many today have become afraid of.
The fear of ballot box snatcher is real, and every Nigerian looks up to the Army to be able to provide the needed security for them to be able to exercise their franchise. One would, therefore, plead with the PDP to allow the Nigerian Army to focus on its role and responsibilities as those who have nothing to hide should have nothing to fear.
The Nigeria Army under Lt GenTukur Buratai is a responsive organization and one that has tremendously shown respect for the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Worthy of mention also is the fact that the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai is a professional officer and one whose loyalty can never be doubted.
He is also a refined promoter of human rights as evident in his numerous interactions with the civilian populace through the Directorate of Civil-Military relations. This much has been said about him in multiple forums and how he has done so much in three years to reflect on the average soldier in the country.
It is also on record that the Nigerian Army has not unlawfully engaged any citizen in any arms' struggle and this very much we are aware the Army has continued to imbibe. An example of the professionalism of the Nigeria Army under Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai was in 2016 in Rivers state when militants opened fire on troops during a rerun election. Guess what? The Army didn't retaliate but instead fished out the criminals and handed to the police.
Now, that is just an example of the professionalism of the Nigerian Army under Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai in recent times. The public outcry by the PDP and its agents are in poor taste and meant to mislead. Needless I add that there is no rest for the wicked. And make no mistakes, the Nigerian Army would rise to the occasion during and after the elections in Nigeria. For those who may not want a python dance with the Army, it is simply thumb print on your ballot paper and AVOID the box itself.

Recently I had the pleasure of having an informal chat with Jimbo, the bass slapping musician from the Reverend Horton Heat. As the Throttle Guy for Issue 19, he was more than happy to give us a personal look into his life.
Doni: What guilty pleasure do you have in your music collection?
Jimbo: My favorites include the Ramones, which is not very rockabilly but that music really grew from the soul. Girl Groups, I love their melody. I like all bands, even ones that aren't that good. If it means something and they are trying, stretching themselves – I find beauty in that. Even me! What I lack in talent I make up for in show.
Doni: What are you doing right now during this phone interview?
Doni: So what is your house like?
Jimbo: I live in a pink house from the 50s. Looking out the back window at okra, tomatoes etc, our garden. Nice to come home and see.
Doni: What is your favorite part of touring? Tell us some stories!
Jimbo: My favorite part of tour is playing. We never get to see anything. One time we pulled up to Niagara Falls, and we got out to look at it. Another bus pulls out, bunch of smoke pours out when 7-8 black guys exit. It was the Wutang clan. Neither of us knew what each other said due to our accents. So we got to see the falls with the Wutang clan. Imagine us, the Reverend Horton Heat and the Wutang Clan nodding to each other. I have a million more stories.
Doni: So, tell us more!
Jimbo: We were playing Fillmore in San Francisco opening up for Johnny Cash and had another quick show. But, due to contractual obligations, we couldn't use our name. So, we were the Pajama Party Orchestra. Were in dressing room drinking Jack, etc. Cash came by and said hi. He's like: "I'm Johnny Cash", and we're like, Yea you are! June led him out of the room by his earlobe. Apparently he's stayed too long. She's taking care of it, we had liquor and she wasn't having him in that. It was out of love.
Then, there was Little Richard. We were in LA across from the House of Blues at the Hyatt House. For many years, Little Richard lived in the penthouse. We happened to get a room there, and during the day we walked down past the bar. There are a guy in silk pajamas in the bar. He called me little Paulie McCartney. "Come over here" he said – and gave me a hug. He was wearing little Prince shades. We took pictures. Were on either side of him leaning over – looks like Weekend at Bernies.
Doni: Who do you hang with on tour?
Jimbo: We try to see all the bands that we play with. Koffin Kats are coming on the next run. And Unknown Hinson. And of course. Lucky Tubb – good friend of mine. We enjoy MI area.
Doni: How did you end up in the Reverend Horton Heat?
Jimbo: True story – I lived in Houston and had a band called Six Gun. Someone called me and told me to go see this band called the Reverend Horton Heat. I was tired, so I was like, I don't know. I went to see them and was blown away. Got to talking to them while cleaning up. I chatted with the bass player. I asked, "Can I slap your bass?" I started doing this triple slap thing that apparently they had been talking about. Jim walked up to me and asked for my phone number. I got a call from him a week later and his bass player were discussing techniques. He drove down, I auditioned. Had a show 3-4 days later. Had to learn 2 hours worth of material in a few days and made it through. And to think, I almost didn't go.
Seriously, playing music for a living makes me the luckiest guy.
Doni: What's your favorite car, or hot rod?
Jimbo: I am an old truck guy. I like all old trucks. I have a mid 70s old chevy truck that I work on. Jim (Heath) had an old 5 window Chevy.
I also have a Land Rover which holds family and 2 upright bases. I have 3 tattoos of my bases on my legs and an arm. I think I have had 10.
Doni: What are your favorite Reverend Horton Heat songs to play?
Jimbo: Right now – She Likes The Smell of Gasoline. I get to do a lot of slapping on that song. And then there is Wildest Dreams on the romantic side. Now, right now, any aggressive punk song. I don't get tired of them. We're getting ready to bring out some of the old songs.
Doni: How long have you been playing?
Jimbo: In band for 28 years. Six Gun in Houston TX. was my first band. That was more punk rock. Then Stray Cats came out. A friend of mine, Finger and I, we wanted to play that kind of music. He stole a bass form a school, dragged across the field and I decided to learn the upright bass. I taught myself.
Doni: What is the background of the Jimbo songs (both of them)?
Jimbo: It's all Jim Heath. At times I amuse him. He's a very people person, he soaks in people and their personalities. John Lennon wrote songs on weird stuff Ringo would say. It's off the wall. I amuse him. He throws stuff together. It's funny. I am flattered. Just silly things that go through his mind. I like the way the song (The Jimbo Song) slows down, tells a story and then goes into that fun rockabilly. I own all of it.
Doni: What is your family life like?
Jimbo: Married for about 18 years. She puts up with me. 2 kids. Austin and 9 year old Hunter. He's a wild cat. Oldest plays upright bass in orchestra in music special school. I taught a master class in the school. They all lined up and I taught them to slap it, but don't think the teacher liked it.
We used to play ¾ of a year before families, but now we are usually on tour 6 months. Going to Australia soon. And, my 16 year old son is set to get his driving permit today.
Doni: What do you think about the concept of a Throttle Gal? What does that mean to you?
Jimbo: Well, I guess because I met you, a gal that isn't a pinup girl but actually enjoys the car culture and can get grease on their hands and have fun, be part of a goup – love of cars, rockabilly culture. Not uptight. Let your hair down, and be real.
Half the time we meet people they are playing a part. Expressing the love of the culture all the time and not be uptight about it. That's a Throttle Gal.
You know what Jimbo? We agree. I can't wait to see you next time our paths cross.

Grubhub just hired a new head of public affairs to help the delivery app take on Uber and DoorDash
REUTERS/Lucas Jackson
Grubhub has hired a Cargill public relations and lobbying vet to head corporate affairs as the delivery app tries to stand out in a crowded field.
Devry Boughner Vorwer will promote the company's support of local restaurants and contribution to hunger relief while tackling looming regulation.
The delivery app industry has been rapidly consolidating as the major players struggle to be profitable.
Grubhub has hired Cargill vet Devry Boughner Vorwer as chief corporate affairs officer as the delivery app tries to take on bigger competitors Uber and DoorDash.
Starting on January 19, Vorwer will oversee brand, communications, government relations, public policy, and sustainability. She will oversee about 40 employees and report to CEO Matt Maloney.
The delivery app industry, which Morgan Stanley predicts will be worth $470 billion by 2025, is rapidly consolidating. DoorDash acquired Caviar in 2019. In 2020, Just Eat Takeaway merged with Grubhub in a deal valuing it at $7.3 billion, a deal expected to close in the first half of 2021; and Uber gobbled up Postmates.
At food giant Cargill, Vorwer oversaw public relations and government lobbying and rolled out programs to help local communities with jobs and food. Similarly, she plans to show how Grubhub is supporting restaurants and communities through grants and hunger relief.

"My entire career has been in food," Vorwer told Insider. "Grubhub wouldn't exist without restaurants. Of course, we have to focus on the success of drivers and diners, but if restaurants are successful, it's because diners are choosing them."
Vorwer will also oversee Grubhub's public policy and lobbying arms as potential regulations loom over the delivery app industry. City governments like New York City cap delivery fees and unions fight to overturn laws like California's Prop 22, which let companies classify drivers as full-time employees instead of independent contractors.
"We continually hear that our delivery partners value the flexibility that comes from working with our company, and we're committed to making opportunities available that fit around their lives," a Grubhub spokesperson told Insider. "As Devry gets ramped up, this will be an important focus with officials and stakeholders."
Vorwer also holds posts at nonprofits like Cultivating New Frontiers in Agriculture, University of California Agriculture Issues Center, the US-Mexico Foundation, the Economic Club of Washington, DC, and the Social Gastronomy Movement.

Public Health Notice – Outbreak of Salmonella infections under investigation
Investors Diurnal Team - July 25, 2020 0
OTTAWA, ON, July 24, 2020 /CNW/ - Why should you take note The Public Health Agency of Canada is collaborating with provincial public health partners, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, and Health Canada to investigate an outbreak of Salmonella infections occurring in five provinces. At this time, the source of the outbreak has not been identified, but health and food safety partners are investigating what is making people sick. The outbreak is ongoing, as recent illnesses continue to be reported to the Public Health Agency of Canada. Salmonella bacteria are found naturally in the intestines of animals, reptiles and birds. The bacteria are most-often transmitted to people when they eat contaminated foods. Contaminated foods often come from animal sources, such as poultry, beef, milk or eggs, but can also include fruits, vegetables, and herbs. In an effort to prevent further illnesses, Canadians are advised to wash their hands frequently and use safe food handling practices to prevent Salmonella infections. This public health notice will be updated as the investigation evolves. Investigation summary As of July 24, 2020, there have been 59 confirmed cases of Salmonella Newport illness linked to this outbreak in the following provinces: British Columbia (23), Alberta (31), Manitoba (3), Ontario (1), and Prince Edward Island (1). Individuals became sick between mid-June and mid-July 2020. Information is available for 28 illnesses. Out of 28 people, six individuals have been hospitalized. No deaths have been reported. Individuals who became ill are between 11 and 77 years of age. The majority of cases (54%) are female. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (U.S. CDC) is also investigating an outbreak of SalmonellaNewport illnesses that have a similar genetic fingerprint to illnesses reported in this outbreak. Investigators in Canada and the U.S. are collaborating to exchange information to identify the source of the outbreak. It is possible that more recent illnesses may be reported in the outbreak because there is a period of time between when a person becomes ill and when the illness is reported to public health officials. For this outbreak, the illness reporting period is between two and four weeks. Who is most at risk Anyone can become sick with a Salmonella infection, but children aged 5 years and under, older adults, pregnant women or people with weakened immune systems are at higher risk for contracting serious illness. Most people who become ill from a Salmonella infection will recover fully after a few days. It is possible for some people to be infected with the bacteria and to not get sick or show any symptoms, but to still be able to spread the infection to others. What should you do to protect your health It is difficult to know whether a product is contaminated with Salmonella because you can't see, smell or taste it. To help prevent Salmonella infections, the Public Health Agency of Canada recommends following safe food handling tips. The following tips may help reduce your risk of getting sick, but they may not fully eliminate the risk of illness. Wash your hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds before and after handling raw meat and fresh produce. Cook food to a safe internal temperature that has been checked using a digital thermometer. Always read and follow cooking instructions on the package of any food items. Keep raw food away from other food while shopping, storing, repackaging, cooking and serving food. Wash fresh produce thoroughly under fresh, cool, running water, even if you plan to peel them. This helps prevent the spread of any bacteria that may be present. Never rinse raw meat before using it because the bacteria can spread everywhere the water splashes, creating more of a safety hazard. Sanitize countertops, cutting boards and utensils before and after preparing food. Use a kitchen sanitizer (following the directions on the container) or a bleach solution (5 mL household bleach to 750 mL of water), and rinse with water. Use paper towels to wipe kitchen surfaces, or change dishcloths daily to avoid the risk of cross-contamination and the spread of bacteria, and avoid using sponges as they are harder to keep bacteria-free. Use one cutting board for produce, and a separate one for raw meat, poultry, fish and seafood. Place peeled or cut fruits and vegetables on a separate clean plate or in a container to prevent them from becoming cross-contaminated. If you have been diagnosed with a Salmonella infection or any other gastrointestinal illness, do not cook food for other people. Contact your local public health authority to report any food safety concerns at restaurants or grocery stores, or if you suspect food poisoning from a restaurant or other food establishments. Symptoms Symptoms of a Salmonella infection, called salmonellosis, typically start 6 to 72 hours after exposure to Salmonella bacteria from an infected animal, person or contaminated product. Symptoms include: fever chills diarrhea abdominal cramps headache nausea vomiting These symptoms usually last for 4 to 7 days. In healthy people, salmonellosis often clears up without treatment, but sometimes antibiotics may be required. In some cases, severe illness may occur and hospitalization may be required. People who are infected with Salmonella bacteria can be infectious from several days to several weeks. People who experience symptoms, or who have underlying medical conditions, should contact their health care provider if they suspect they have a Salmonella infection. What is the Government of Canada doing The Government of Canada is committed to protecting the health of Canadians from enteric disease outbreaks. The Public Health Agency of Canada leads the human health investigation into an outbreak and is in regular contact with its federal, provincial and territorial partners to monitor the situation and to collaborate on steps to address an outbreak. Health Canada provides food-related health risk assessments to determine whether the presence of a certain substance or microorganism poses a health risk to consumers. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency conducts food safety investigations into the possible food source of an outbreak. The Government of Canada will continue to update Canadians if new information related to this investigation becomes available.

The third installment in my Summer Evening Portraits series did not disappoint. This project started out as an exploration in medium format film photography but ended up being a way to get to know people I would not have had the chance to know otherwise.
Lavitta is a beautiful woman inside and out. She spent her life going back and forth from Senegal to Spokane, WA… the little, big city I call home. She spends her time at the Vanessa Behan Crisis Nursery where she helps the organization "provide safety for children, strengthens families and creates a healthier community in an environment of unconditional love." She's an amazing woman that I am so honored to call my friend.
This series has given me a new love and excitement for photography. So much so that I'm going to start using film solely in my business. I cannot wait to bring you along the journey and share more and more work with you in the future.
Please enjoy these beautiful images of my new friend Lavitta. If you are ever interested in a session like this, please let me know. It would be an honor to work together and provide you with beautiful images.

You can easily use the credit cards of the most common international payment circuits (such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express) and almost all the activities display the symbols of those accepted in the window or at the checkouts. In case of payment by credit card, it will be necessary to show an identity document or passport.

"Why should I sell the Canadian farmers' wheat?" asked Pierre Trudeau, a Liberal prime minister, in 1968. By daring to question the existence of the Canadian Wheat Board he helped relegate his party to perennial fringe status in the prairie provinces, where the board has a legal monopoly over wheat and barley sales. Successive governments gingerly left the board alone. But Stephen Harper's Conservative minority government has no such inhibitions. It plans to remove the board's monopoly, thus possibly spelling the end of a venerable Canadian institution — and one of the world's biggest grain exporters.
The board, a government body, dates from the Depression, when farmers were going broke. It is responsible for quality control, sales and marketing. It fixes a guaranteed price, with the government covering its occasional losses. Its supporters, often smaller farmers distant from the American border, say that the board has turned Canadian wheat into a global brand that commands a premium price because of its uniform high quality. Its detractors among farmers say that they could beat the board's price by selling directly, and that decentralised sales would encourage local food industries. It is a sore point on the prairies that much of the flour on the country's supermarket shelves is milled in Ontario.
Mr Harper believes in smaller government. He is honouring a campaign commitment to allow farmers in the three prairie provinces — Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan—to sell their wheat freely. To that end, the government replaced three of the board's directors and, in December, its president. The opposition Liberals and the premiers of Saskatchewan and Manitoba (but not Alberta), want to keep the board. Chuck Strahl, the agriculture minister, has agreed to ballot farmers on the issue. But barley growers, thought to be more in favour of freeing markets than wheat farmers, will vote first.
The outcome of the votes is uncertain. Mr Strahl insists that the board can survive—albeit in diminished form—a transition to free markets, which he envisages by the summer of 2008. Environmentalists claim that a C$345m ($300m) biofuels programme, announced last month, is a subsidy designed to sway the vote.
The debate over the board has rumbled on for years. But this time change may at last happen. The Conservatives, whose heartland is in the west, won 48 of the 56 prairie seats at the most recent election. Their bet is that the farmers, however disgruntled, will not desert them for their opponents, who are seen as representing eastern Canada. With wheat prices high, some farmers see instant profits from the end of monopoly.
International pressure against the board is mounting, too. American farmers have long complained that the monopoly involves subsidy. The European Union agrees. John Howard, Australia's conservative prime minister (who is seen as a role model by some Canadian conservatives), last month stripped his country's wheat board of its monopoly following a bribery scandal. Though some prairie farmers stand to lose from free markets, Canadian consumers stand to gain from cheaper flour. Unlike Trudeau, Mr Harper has little to fear from taking on the board.

My Experience Working as a Labourer at a Kenyan Construction Site
Silas Nyamweya
Nyamweya is a columnist with a Kenyan print media.He is also a freelance writer with various online and offline media platforms
After hovering around town with no success in getting my ideal job, Idecided to maneuver my way into the "Mjengo" (construction) industry as a manual worker. I managed to secure one after giving the foreman his 'tea'. As I came to realize, that area is one of its kind among those I had ever come across. Let me give you a taste of my experience.
The first day for me was both hectic and cumbersome .Hectic because I had never worked in a seemingly very busy environment before. As workers were closely monitored by the supervisor in charge. Make a mistake of relaxing in your work and you will receive an instant insult. Or worse you will be told to pack and go. For there are so many people who want to work. If that one cannot be called slavery, then I don't know what to call it.
Hey 'engineer' go and work with that mason 'said the foreman. That foreman as I came to realize was fond of giving people nicknames. He had given me the nickname 'engineer' which stuck on me there and then mainly because I was wearing a suit even in work. I actually had to work in a suit the first day because I had no other cloth to change and I didn't want to lose the opportunity. I regretted the act after wasting my expensive suit for however much I tried to wash it, the cement and oil plus grease could not be cleansed. Hence the suit became my overall there hence.
Other nicknames that were found in that site include among others, 'mosquito' that is somebody who is very slender. "Pig" somebody who is very fat. "Malaria" somebody who is slow in work. "pole" somebody who is silent. "kelele" somebody who is noisy. "Mama" somebody who is like a woman etc. Hence don't be surprised when you find people being called, mosquito, pig, mama, or even males being called female names.
My first day was also cumbersome because when I was assigned a mason to work with, I had no experience hence it was a difficult time. The problem arose when it was time to mix ballast; first I didn't know what the ratio of sand is to cement and second I didn't know the mixing criteria. So I was dumbfounded.
The mason, not realizing my problem gave all manner of insults directed at me. 'You beach", don't you know that you are wasting my time? You go home if you don't want to work. "Useless man".
Not able to bear the insult, I told him to his face to insult me again if he is a man enough and he will know why donkeys do not have horns. "Do you think you are a special man?" I retorted, at that the foreman arrived. "What is the matter?" ask him, replied the mason. He doesn't want to work. "What is the matter young man?" the foreman asked me. I need to be shown on how it is done Sir, I replied. You mean you have never done it before? He inquired. "No, I have never", I replied. Then go and dig trenches with the others my friend, we have no time to teach people here, this is no school. He concluded. I was directed to the store where I was given a shovel to dig trenches for. I joined the other comrades who welcomed me jokingly "engineer" welcome engineer, inspect our work, have you come to check our work?
Working in a construction site as I realized is both fascinating and interesting. Fascinating because the main type of discussion does not go outside sexual matters, just women and sex. That is where obscenity is no secret. In fact some objects and tools are named after private parts. A good example is the vibrator which is named after the male organ and the compressor named after the buttocks and so forth
The construction site is also interesting because of the diversity of people therein. It is not surprising to find a graduate working with an illiterate person. People of all calibers working together; but the main setback as I found out is wages. The wages were peanuts compared with the work we were doing.

Jan Verbruggen (1712 – 27 October 1781) was a Dutch master gun-founder in the Netherlands and later at the Royal Arsenal in Woolwich, London. He was also an artist.

Early life and career
He was born in 1712 in Enkhuizen in the Netherlands, son of Pieter Verbruggen and Maria Brouwer. In 1734 he married Eva van Schaack, and they had three children.

In 1740, he became gun-founder of the Dutch admiralty's foundry in Enkhuizen, and from June 1755 he was master gun-founder in The Hague. After a few years he was suspended, the guns produced being considered unsound; his attempt in 1763 to obtain an appointment at the Royal Arsenal in Woolwich, London was unsuccessful.

Artist

Verbruggen, a student of the artist Jan van Call the Younger, was also a painter of seascapes and coastal scenery, such as pictures of yachts and East Indiamen at or near Enkhuizen.

At the Royal Arsenal
By 1769 the British government's contracted gun-founders, William Bowers and Richard Gilpin, were due to retire, and Andrew Schalch, the master founder at the Royal Arsenal since 1718, produced few guns; his work had been considered unsatisfactory for several years. In consequence, on 12 January 1770 Jan and his son Pieter (1735–1786) were appointed master founders at the Royal Arsenal.

In May 1770 they moved to England. At the Royal Brass Foundry they introduced a horizontal boring machine, for guns cast solid (instead of vertically reaming guns cast round a core); this system had been installed by Verbruggen at The Hague in the 1750s. They also rebuilt the furnaces and casting pits, and used precast moulds for cascabels. Verbruggen's horizontal boring machine was the first industrial size lathe installed in England.

Henry Maudslay, the later inventor of many improvements to the lathe, worked as an apprentice in Verbruggen's workshop in Woolwich.

The first guns made by the Verbruggens passed proof tests in April 1774. Cannons, mortars and howitzers were made at the foundry; the proof record was higher than in earlier years, and the foundry was able to satisfy the requirements of the British services.

Jan Verbruggen died in London on 27 October 1781 and was buried at the Dutch Church, Austin Friars on 2 November. His son Pieter continued as master founder at the Woolwich foundry.

U.S. Expansion for Leics-based business gets green light
A Leicestershire-based business which specialises in bespoke LED design and installation will see its ambition to expand further into the United States' market realised, thanks to crucial funding from the Midlands Engine Investment Fund (MEIF), supported by the European Regional Development Fund, through a small business loan from appointed fund managers Enterprise Loans East Midlands.
Ventola Projects, which operates from Anstey and a factory in Blaby, was established in 2007 by managing director Mick Ventola following more than 25 years' experience in the industry working within electrical contracting and data systems.
The company specialises in delivering bespoke LED requirements, supplying the whole solution from initial design, manufacture, supply and installation, with a particular expertise in the leisure sector.
Speaking about the firm, Mick Ventola, managing director at Ventola Projects, said:
"We've been involved in lighting for more than ten years now, but my personal experience goes back further than that. I started out in 1989 as a sole trader working in electrical consultancy and during this time I started nurturing business connections across the world, from the U.S. to the Middle East, as well as back home in the U.K, expanding into new markets and sectors.
"Since then we have gone on to deliver some very high profile projects including work on palaces for the emir of Qatar and home of a Kuwaiti sheikh, which have both been an amazing experience. On top of that, we've also extended our links with a company in the States who will now supply our branded products as our official distributor for this region."
Ventola's main product is the VAvR range, a multi-function LED system that can switch from general lighting to colour changing mood lighting or UV glow effects. The products are computer-controlled and low voltage, so are quick and cost-efficient to install.
Through Enterprise Loans – one of the three fund managers responsible for the debt finance available through the MEIF - Ventola Projects has been supplied with £25,000 in order to help facilitate the firm's expansion in the U.S, including attaining certification, manufacture forward stock and investing in marketing and PR activity.
Sukhveer Chirrimar, loan fund advisor at Enterprise Loans East Midlands, said:
"Mick is incredibly switched on - no pun intended - with his business and the in-depth planning and strategising he has undertaken, all of this hard work is now bearing fruits. He is very focused and understands what he needs to grow the business and now has a massive opportunity to break into the US market by supplying one of the country's largest leisure product manufacturers.
"We are delighted to help Ventola Projects realise their ambition and it is truly great to see an East Midlands–based firm achieving such international success. We wish them every success in the future."
Grant Peggie, director at British Business Bank, said:
"We are pleased to be able to support Ventola Projects in entering large-scale markets such as the US. It clearly demonstrates how the Midlands Engine Investment Fund aims to support the region's firms, in this case in raising their profile and increasing their competitive edge overseas.
"We look forward to seeing the progress of Ventola and expect its upward trajectory to continue."

Not only has Skyko been composing and producing music for the past three decades… Where else can you find a producer who's mastered classical violin and viola, rips on the electric guitar and was living in London during the birth of Electronic Music?
Proficient on violin, viola, guitar, drums, keyboard, vocals and programing. Tools and experience to get your music sounding exactly like you hear on the radio!
I wish I were able to share more of the techniques and cool tricks I learned working along side some of the top engineers and producers of the 80's and 90's at Cherokee Recording in Hollywood. Like a handing off of the torch to a younger generation of musicians.
Catch a few of the electronic music composed by Skyko right here at Skylab Sound and released on Six Sense Records Label. For additional information visit our website.
Skyko prides himself in always capturing the best sound quality for you. The work above he either worked as a composer, sound mixer, sound designer, boom operator. Click on each poster for additional information.
Skyko is, of course, available for hire – if you find that his services and insights are in tune with yours. Everyone that he has worked with over the years has made some sort of contribution to his artistic perspective and hopefully he had an impact on theirs. Check what some of his peers have to say.
Working with Sky was easy and smooth throughout the entire process. He works in a relax manor, and makes the Artist feel very comfortable. He takes his time, and suggests rather than insists on adjustments.
Working with Skyko on our two short films, Santanna and Plum, was a dream. As any filmmaker knows, sound is not just recording dialogue, but one of the most potent tools you have as a storyteller. When we met Skyko, we met a co-creator in the fullest sense. He is a passionate, sensitive artist who understands what it means to create a cinematic world and has the patience, skill and dedication to realize it fully. From the sound of wind over the Malibu hills to the delicate inflections of a child's voice to the gorgeous score he created, he conjured magic. We were blessed to have him contribute to our work.
The first thing I noticed about Skyko is his professionalism. He's always ready to go, never tires or complains. The quality of his work is superb; I know I'm getting perfect sound whenever I work with Skyko.
Having the massive library and variety of unique, high quality music from SkyLab, improves every single one of our projects.
Collaborating with Skyko as our Sound Mixer completely enhances the stories and brings a special, undeniable quality to all our films.
We owe a debt of gratitude to Sky and everyone at SkyLab for their professionalism, talent and dedication.
Skyko is an absolute pleasure to work with. He is a master in the studio and also has a keen sensibility in knowing what will work for what ever genre of music you're recording.
Best Production Sound Mixing Ever!
Have worked with Skyko twice as an editor and then again as a director/editor. Both times he was up against challenging audio situations, from refrigerator humming to traffic and airplane noises and in all situations turned in Award caliber sound. My film "Jes and Lora" has been distinguished with 15 Awards for Best Film, Photography, Acting and Directing, none of which could have been received if our sound had not been spot on.
Made the job a lot easier!
We just got the rough cut back from "Roast it Again, Sam" and our editor commented that the sound work was the best he's ever heard…on any production. It made his job a lot easier.
Sky was on top of everything and really cared about our film. It was refreshing to work with a sound man who wasn't a weirdo. Awesome personality, respectful and great sound!

Austrian Labor Minister resigns due to academic plagiarism scandal
Austrian Labor Minister resigns due…
(11 Jan 2021) Austria Labor Minister Christine Aschbacher has resigned amidst a plagiarism scandal that accuses her of plagiarizing two separate theses that she submitted as part of her academic career.
According to allegations first levied by blogger Stefan Weber, Aschbacher has committed plagiarism and academic fraud in two theses. The first, a 2006 master's thesis that was submitted to the University of Applied Sciences in Wiener Neustadt. At the time, she was graduated from the school with high marks. The second is from May 2020 as she sought her doctorate from the Technical University of Bratislava in Slovakia. According to Weber, that thesis includes a variety of "gobbledygook, nonsense and plagiarism" with over 20% of the paper coming from other sources that are not cited.
Aschbacher, for her part, has denied the allegations. However, she says she made the choice to resign due to hostility and insults being directed at her and her family. According to her, the decision was made to "protect my family". A successor is expected to be named today.
However, as important as the story is for Austria, it's just another piece in a much larger plagiarism puzzle that has impacted politicians across many different countries in Europe.

A lot of change has happened in Monica Bellucci's personal life.
Recently, the ex-husband of Monica Bellucci Vincent Cassel married his 21-year-old lover Tina Kunakey. While the fans of the broken couple called on the actor to think again and wondered how he could exchange his ex-wife for a young model, there was also a lot of change in Monica's personal life.
This actress told in a new interview with the French edition of the Paris Match.
'I have been in a relationship with one man for a long time, and we are fine. He works in another field, but he travels a lot, so his rhythm of life allows him to understand and accept mine', said Monica.
The eldest daughter of Monica Bellucci first tried herself in the model role.
For some time now, 54-year-old Monica Bellucci no longer hides that she is happy in her personal life.

Q: How do I optimise this ClickHouse DB JOIN query? I am playing around with Clickhouse DB and I am trying to figure out why the query below is giving me a DB::Exception: Memory limit (for query) exceeded and could use some help...
SELECT * FROM
(
    SELECT created_at, rates.car_id, MIN(rates.price) FROM rates
    WHERE
        pickup_location_id = 198
        AND created_at = '2020-10-01'
    GROUP BY created_at, car_id
) r
JOIN cars c2 ON r.car_id = c2.id

The inner query bit performs almost instantly (millions of records) and yields only 212 results. However, adding the JOIN causes the query to fail (memory exception, 45GB)
Looks like the JOIN happens on the whole of rates/cars - and not on the "result"?

A: CH uses HASHJOIN and places the right table into memory into a HashTable.
In case of inner join you can swap tables:
SELECT * FROM cars c2 JOIN
(
    SELECT created_at, rates.car_id, MIN(rates.price) FROM rates
    WHERE
        pickup_location_id = 198
        AND created_at = '2020-10-01'
    GROUP BY created_at, car_id
) r
ON r.car_id = c2.id

It's easy being green when you're the GREEN MACHINE
November 18, 2014	/ no comments	/	2486 views
This story was originally published in the Nov. 17 issue of Fourth Estate.
Jevette Brown, staff writer
Walking into the Patriot Center on a Tuesday night at 7 p.m., one wouldn't think that they might hear a cacophony of instruments, ringing loudly through the otherwise empty halls.
Upon closer inspection, you would discover that this is simply a normal Tuesday night sound check and warm up for a practice of Mason's pep band, the Green Machine. With only about three hours to work with during the week, about 80 pieces of music to cover and over 25 people handling instruments ranging from pianos to piccolos, pep band director Dr. Michael Nickins (or Doc Nix) would seem to have a serious task ahead of him if he's ever going to have these all of these students performance ready.
Photo credit: Amy Rose
Called the "Most Entertaining Pep Band in College Basketball" in 2013 by Bleacher Report, the Green Machine has made a name for itself in the college world for being not only a sound to behold, but a sight to see. Always dressed with pride in the green and gold, the Green Machine has a stellar reputation; from the band's propensity to produce fun, sing-along mashups of current hits to the general energy that they provide the crowd with, whether we're winning by 10 or losing by 15.
Not only are the members of the Green Machine enthusiastic, but Doc Nix himself is known for his great amounts of gusto. With various flamboyant suits and his famous green jeweled scepter that gets swung higher and more wildly with every crescendo of the band, Doc Nix has become an icon in his own right for the Green Machine.
After coming to Mason to join the faculty in fall 2006 as the new director of the pep band, it did not take long for him to start making a name for them. By 2008, the Colonial Athletic Association recognized the Green Machine as "Best Pep Band," and they got this award for two years in a row.
Nix also opened the doors for more non-music majors to become involved and even got students to start writing their own charts, or musical pieces for the band to perform at the games.
Joe Antonucci, a senior Music Education major who has been a part of the pep band for 4 years, is one of the many students who now makes these charts. He accredits Doc Nix for his success.
"The only reason I was able to finish any of those is because he helped me get through it with a good finished product. Without him I wouldn't have known I could write music in any facet," Antonucci said. He remembers when he first got involved with the Green Machine and only a few students had ever made pieces to be performed and now in this semester alone, three different people who have never even written music before have produced charts that have been added to the band's repertoire book.
As far as non-music major involvement, Leland Powell, a junior and Computer Science major remembers the first time he witnessed the legendary pep band at a freshman event during Welcome Week.
"I saw them play and I was like, 'That's awesome. I want to do that,' " Powell said. "So right after the performance I went right up to Doc and I asked how do I get to be a part of this and he just said sign up for the class. So I did. It's been three years now."
Powell has been playing the saxophone for almost 10 years and has nothing in his major or minor that correlates to music, yet he advocates for the Green Machine's importance in his life.
"They're a wonderful group to play with. I probably wouldn't be doing this for three years, taking hours out of my week and weekend to come play with these guys when it does nothing for my major. It's just a great experience every week," Powell said.
The first game of the season was Nov. 14. The band prepared to go show off their widely accredited skills. A viral video of them practicing a spirited version of "Rage Against the Machine" from 2011 has recently resurfaced with over 2 million views.
Kelsi Grey, a harpist for 14 years and a member of the Green Machine for 3 years, proudly claims that the band sounds better than they ever have before and are in "mid season form."
Powell is also pretty confident in the Green Machine living up to the continuing hype surrounding them.
"Sometimes at practice it can get a little iffy, but at games we just seem to always get in our groove and get it going! We just really don't have issues," Powell said.
So between Doc Nix and his scepter swinging and possible mashups of Imagine Dragons and Fall Out Boy, the Green Machine is fully prepared to make this year even better than the last.

Q: $\beth_\xi=\sum_{\eta<\xi}2^{\beth_{\eta}}$
If $\xi>0$ is an ordinal, then
$$\beth_\xi=\sum_{\eta<\xi}2^{\beth_{\eta}}.$$

This is my attempt:
By definition of the beth function,
$$\beth_\xi=\sum_{\eta<\xi}\beth_\eta.$$
Therefore, since $2^{\beth_\alpha}=2^{\beth_{\alpha+1}}$,
$$\beth_\xi=\sum_{\eta<\xi}\beth_\eta=\sum_{\eta<\xi}2^{\beth_{\eta-1}}=\sum_{\eta<\xi}2^{\beth_\eta}.$$
I think I can't do the first step, because $\xi$ must be a limit ordinal. Any hint, please? :(

A: Hint:
$$
\sum_{\eta<\xi+1} \beth_\eta = \sum_{\eta\leq\xi} \beth_\eta = \beth_\xi
$$
