In the Middle East, one start-up can hide another. The Saudi start-up Foodics, which offers, among other services, dematerialized management solutions for restaurants, has just acquired its Jordanian sister company, POSRockets, with the aim of establishing itself on the market in Egypt, Kuwait, Oman, and, of course, in Jordan.
It’s not every day that a Saudi startup (winner of the Forbes Middle East Innovation Award, no less) makes an acquisition of this magnitude. Indeed, the Jordanian restaurant service provider POSRocket is no more and no less than the second biggest player in the region (Africa and the Middle East) on this market.
The pandemic, a vector of opportunity?
Ahmad Alzaini, founder and CEO of Foodics, has stars in his eyes. With this first acquisition, he aims to establish a successful and sustainable presence in the Egyptian, Kuwaiti, Omani and Jordanian markets. “The region has recently seen a significant acceleration in the digitization of operations in the retail and food sectors due to the pandemic,” he said.
Proof if it were needed that the health situation, however aggravating it may be for many -too many- sectors of the economy, still comes with its share of development opportunities. And the food, e-commerce, and FinTech sectors are spearheading growth in the region, since they are the source of most of the investment generated by start-ups ($1.2 billion), up 64% over the first part of 2021, according to data company Magnitt.
Already a key player
While the amount of the deal was not disclosed, it is known that the operating software provider secured $20 million in venture funding in February last year to expand, in its second round of financing, led by Sanâbil Investments, a subsidiary of the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund.
Promising figures for the start-up, which also offers a marketplace bringing together various players in the sector such as Deliveroo, Wssel, Shopbrain, and many others as part of a service offering deployed in French, English and Arabic, with a Spanish version under development.
Note that since its inception in 2014, Foodics says it has processed more than $5 billion in orders via its platform and is targeting 150,000 terminals by the end of 2024.

A new curved television screen with OLED technology is the first to allow viewers to view different programmes simultaneously.
The 55-inch Samsung S9C television, on sale now, is the first to go on the market in the UK with a curved screen, with the concave horizontal inclination said to make for a unique viewing experience.
But it doesn't come cheap, with a retail price of £6,999.
OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) technology is said to produce richer colours, truer blacks, and more pronounced contrast.
In what could been seen as an example of technology surpassing human evolution, the television's blur-free viewing experience has to be described as "virtually" so, as the brain will alway associate a degree of blur with fast movement.
The technology has been hailed as the next big thing in flatscreen televisions for some time now, but has been, until recently, hampered by production issues.
The television is the first to come with Multi View, which allows two people to view different things on the same screen by wearing glasses, with in-built earbuds. In an advancement that could do away with many a family argument, one viewer can watch television, while another plays a videogame on the same screen, both in full HD.

If you’re like the majority of January resolution makers, you’ve probably made a commitment to go to the gym this month. But you might want to halt before heading to that spin class, especially when you find out what’s probably going on behind closed changing room doors at your workout haunt.
A new survey commissioned to discover how people behave in the gym has found that, wait for it, 25% of gym goers are getting it on in the gym. Yep, you read that right – a quarter of the gym-goers who took part in the poll admitted to having sex at the gym in the last 12 months.
So that favorite personal trainer of yours and that woman you’ve officially made your new fitspo? They could very well be getting it on in the changing rooms (considering a fifth of the survey participants also revealed they’ve had sex with their PT’s, it’s definitely not out of the realms of possibility).
Now the first thing that popped into our minds was where the hell can you get it on in a gym without being, ahem, interrupted? And that’s before we even begin to imagine how unsexy a gym ‘sesh’ would actually be. However the study, which was conducted by Ann Summers, went on to reveal that working out pumps the body full of endorphins (obvs), which in turn boost your self-esteem making you feel, for lack of a better word, awesome. This, in turn, clearly enhances your libido – so much so that 66% of the people surveyed candidly said the thought of getting their freak on in the gym helped to fuel their workout. We don’t know about you, but a glass of wine is our idea of an incentive, not sweaty gym sex.
What’s even more jaw-dropping is the fact that 10% admitted that they carry a condom in their gym bags, just in case. REALLY? We don’t know about you, but we’ll definitely be toting disinfectant wipes to our next gym session…

EVs Continue to Shine in Norway, Account for Nearly Half of Automobile Sales
【Summary】Fully-electric vehicles sold extremely well in Norway in the first half of 2019, accounting for approximately half of new vehicle sales.
Norway has it figured out when it comes to electric cars. By offering consumers with an excellent mix of subsidies, perks, and access to chargers and electric cars, Norway has given consumers numerous reasons to make the switch to a battery-powered machine. With all of the available perks, electric vehicles are continuing to do well in the country, as Reuters reports that more than half of the new cars sold in the country for the first half of 2019 were fully-electric cars.
Model 3 Leads EV Sales
The Norwegian Road Federation (NRF) made the sales announcement at the beginning of the month. And at the same time of the announcement, the NRF stated that the Tesla Model 3 was the top-selling vehicle in the country. Clearly, that's good news for Tesla, as the brand has reportedly been struggling recently.
The outlet claims that 48.4 percent of all new vehicles sold from January to June – the first six months of the year – were electric. That's an impressive amount of growth, as electric vehicles accounted for just 31.2 percent of new car sales for the entire 2018 year. It's even more impressive when you consider the fact that Norway is an oil-producing country. With the sales figures, Norway is now the global leader in per-capita electric car sales, reports the outlet.
In the month of June alone, Tesla sold a total of 3,760 electric vehicles in Norway. The American automaker accounted for 24.5 percent of new cars sold during the month. Tesla was also one of the top-selling brands in the country for the first half of 2019, claims Reuters. While the Model 3 was the most popular vehicle from Tesla's lineup, consumers still purchased the Model S and Model X, just at lower numbers than before.
Why Norway Leads The Way For EV Sales
Norway has come out and announced plans to end the sale of diesel-and gasoline-powered vehicles in the country by the middle of the next decade. To help consumers make the switch, Norway has given owners of battery-powered vehicles some benefits . One of the major ones is the exemption from large taxes that are imposed on diesel-and gas-powered vehicles. Another discount comes in the form of better prices on toll roads. Other perks include cheaper parking and the ability to travel in bus lanes during rush hour. Unlike in other countries, Norway has an extensive network of charging stations for EV owners to use.
The idea behind giving EV owners more perks and unique benefits has worked. As automakers with electric offerings, have seen their sales grow. Automakers like Tesla, Hyundai, Nissan, and BMW, which all have fully-electric cars in Norway. Brands like Ford and Mercedes-Benz don't have fully-electric cars in the country, and have seen sales drop, claims the outlet. Sales of EVs are so strong in the country that brands without battery-powered options are looking to start offering versions in the near future.

During the lockdown period, a group of volunteers from the first team at Sandbach United Football Club have been working hard to get the facility fit for the start of the new season. Whenever that may be. Despite making improvements to the facility, the biggest priority for the club is the safety of the players, supporters and volunteers. So when the guys from Repclif Chemical Services Ltd presented Sandbach United with their 4in1 sanitising product, Sandbach’s safety concerns were eased.
Repclif Chemical Services Ltd is an innovative chemical manufacturer based locally in Crewe. Last year, as Qualkem Brands, they launched a revolutionary sanitising product called Electrosan into the leisure sector and have seen a massive uptake in product demand since the onset of the Covid-19 outbreak. The sanitizer is proven to kill similar enveloped viruses to COVID-19, killing 99.9999% germs in just 12 seconds, and amazingly is over 100 times more effective than regular household bleach.
Electrosan is different to many other hand sanitisers as it is non-alcoholic. It contains Hypochlorous, a pH neutral acid that replicates the body's own natural antiseptic to help prevent infection. It is baby and pet friendly and harmless to the environment, being so much kinder to hands compared to alcohol based sanitisers that sting and dry out your skin, damaging sensitive hands. Electrosan is also a skin antiseptic so great for astro turf grazes, and its doesn't sting when applied.
Qualkem Brands has already given away thousands of bottles to help local care homes across Cheshire during these difficult times, but also has a desire to see local sport restart, but in a safe manner.
When we spoke to Ivan Anketell–Clifford, Managing Director at Repclif Chemical Services Ltd, he expressed his passion for the product, saying “we are delighted to be able to share this product with the local community. To date the product has been exclusively supplied to frontline services. We are now working on an 'On the Go' kit that will allow everyone to safely get back to their daily routine as the lockdown is lifted."
Ivan went onto to say "as a sports enthusiast, I am keen to see the return of sport as its positive impact on people's wellbeing is paramount. We are privileged in Cheshire, if not regionally, to have a flagship sports facility at Sandbach United and it would be just perfect to see the club lead the way when it comes to the safety of their players, staff, supporters and away team visitors."
Sandbach United have around 3,500 to 5,000 visitors on a weekly basis, the safety and welfare of all their guests is paramount. Therefore, the club will be building hand sanitising stations all around the facility, they will be positioned on fences around the first team pitch, in the club house and in the changing rooms. The benefits of this is that all visitors, whether they are players, supporters, children, or parents feel safe and know that they are in an environment where their safety is a priority. As a football club we hope that this will revolutionise the way that football clubs are portrayed. We feel like if we can lead the way when it comes to hygiene then hopefully other clubs will follow and then we can get back to playing the sport that we have been lost without recently as soon as possible.
So, if you do happen to come down to Sandbach United Football Club when it eventually reopens, be sure to check out the stations that are situated around the facility and make full use of the sanitising products on offer, as it will go a long way to help ensure that Sandbach United is a safe environment to be in.

Blockchain has become a buzzword in recent years, but is the technology walking the walk as well as talking the talk? Sarah Morgan reports.
“We’ve heard of many use cases for blockchain, but we’ve not seen a lot of successful implementations or companies that are running successful implementations on the blockchain,” according to Kilian Scharli, Partner at Meyerlustenberger Lachenal AG (Switzerland).
Mr. Scharli was speaking during the on-demand session, Blockchain: A Strategic IP Tool for Protection, Development and Competition. The panelists on the session, presented on the Innovation and the Future of IP track, fielded the big question: will blockchain disrupt intellectual property (IP), and if so, how?
Mr. Scharli queried whether blockchain was currently “the amazing solution for almost nothing,” comparing the current blockchain landscape to the situation with the Internet in the 1990s.
“When you first connected to the Internet, you might remember the special noise that was created, you’d wait a couple of minutes, and then suddenly a webpage would open and you’d see a few lines of text.
“Everybody was very excited to be on the Internet, and that’s exactly where we are currently with blockchain,” he said.
However, organizations are certainly investing in this new technology. Since 2014, the number of patent applications related to blockchain has skyrocketed.
“Most blockchain projects are developed as open-source projects, but the ones filing patent applications are not small companies, they’re the large Fortune 500 companies,” Mr. Scharli said. “It’s clearly a race to exclusivity.”
“Most blockchain projects are developed as open-source projects, but the ones filing patent applications are not small companies, they’re the large Fortune 500 companies. It’s clearly a race to exclusivity.” - Kilian Scharli, Meyerlustenberger Lachenal
Simplifying the Complex
To explore the interaction between blockchain and IP, INTA established the Blockchain Subcommittee, Emerging Issues Committee in January.
Speaking on the panel, Thomas Barrett, President of Encirca (US) and Chair of the Blockchain Subcommittee, said the Subcommittee’s objective is to explore the use of blockchain technology in trademark prosecution, maintenance, protection, and practice, including the opportunities and the threats to the value of trademarks, brands, and consumer trust in emerging blockchain technologies.
Four Task Groups exist within the Subcommittee: Anticounterfeiting, Trademark Registry, Domain Names, and Trademark Filings.
The Anticounterfeiting Task Group is currently examining the possible use of blockchain for anticounterfeiting, and the distribution and sale of gray-market and second-hand goods.
Track and trace in the supply chain—the ability to identify the past and present locations of all product inventory—is “the most obvious opportunity” here, with pharmaceuticals being the main use cases, Mr. Barrett said.
Raphaëlle Dequiré-Portier, Partner, Gide Loyrette Nouel (France) and session moderator, asked the panel: “As a consumer, when do you think we will be able to verify whether a product is fake or genuine just by using a smartphone and blockchain technology?”
Mr. Barrett suggested this is likely in five to ten years. There is clearly a pressing use case for the pharmaceutical supply chain to be undertaking track and trace, and many groups are already working on this, he said. Noting that the counterfeit medicines market is responsible for one million deaths per year, he said, the ability to track and trace can be a “matter of life and death.”
“As a consumer, when do you think we will be able to verify whether a product is fake or genuine just by using a smartphone and blockchain technology?” - Raphaëlle Dequiré-Portier, Gide Loyrette Nouel
Bennett Collen, Director of Product at GoDaddy.com, LLC (US) and a member of the Blockchain Subcommittee, outlined the work of the Trademark Registry Task Group, which is currently looking at a potential global trademark registry.
“It makes sense that if this technology works for individual businesses and business interests, a global trademark registry might help standardize the practice of recording trademark use within federal and regional trademark offices,” he said.
According to Mr. Collen, the benefits of using blockchain for a global trademark registry, or even a registry for one jurisdiction, include highly credible timestamps, more complete records, and a central record of all actions taken around a certain trademark.
However, “coordination among trademark offices could prove challenging. Each trademark office has its own initiatives, roadmap, technological capabilities, and budget,” he added.
“You cannot undo a blockchain addition and that applies to registering a blockchain domain name. Our Committee sees this a major threat to rights owners.” - Thomas Barrett, Encirca
The Wild West
The Domain Names Task Group is examining the emerging uses and abuses of brand identifiers and domain names on blockchains. Mr. Barrett outlined one use case which is being promoted by a venture capital vendor called .crypto: uncensorable websites.
“The immutable and decentralized nature of the blockchain truly allows for websites that are beyond the reach of governments for censorship, but also beyond the reach of law enforcement for potential illegal activity as well,” warned Mr. Barrett.
He noted that while rights protection mechanisms are available to brand owners from the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) framework, it is the “Wild Wild West” for blockchain domain names as there is no regulation at all.
“The blockchain is immutable. You cannot undo a blockchain addition and that applies to registering a blockchain domain name,” Mr. Barrett said. “Our Committee sees this a major threat to rights owners.”
Responding to Ms. Dequiré-Portier’s query as to what brand owners can do if a blockchain domain name is infringing on their trademark, Mr. Barrett explained that the Task Group is working with vendors and educating them about the importance of respecting IP.
“Some of these developers recognize they should ‘play nice’ with IP. For example, some are trying to have the equivalent of a sunrise period before they launch, to give brand owners a chance to protect their brands,” he said.
Two things are holding back the adoption of blockchain domain names, according to Mr. Barrett. The first, on the merchant side, is the ability to accept cryptocurrencies.
The announcement in October by PayPal Holdings, Inc. of a new service that enables its customers to buy, hold, and sell cryptocurrency directly from their PayPal account could “be a tipping point in terms of adoption by merchants,” he suggested.
On the consumer side, many blockchain domain names require a special plug-in web browser to access a digital wallet, and many browsers are not yet able to offer that.
“A global trademark registry might help standardize the practice of recording trademark use within federal and regional trademark offices.” - Bennett Collen, GoDaddy.com
A Natural Mistrust
Concerning the Trademark Registry Task Group’s work, Mr. Collen said its role is “to tackle the issue of the general disregard or secondary importance of IP rights, as viewed by a lot of hardcore technologists and blockchain companies in the space.”
He suggested that many blockchain developers have a “natural mistrust” of IP and that “trademark law’s unique single source concept doesn’t really jive with open-source.”
Mr. Scharli also highlighted the issue: “The ‘geeks’ don’t care about IP rights; they just want to develop the best possible solution.
“Larger corporations see the immense value of IP rights. The more mature these startups become, the more they’ll focus on IP rights because they create significant value for the company.”

Last September, a series of charges against Apple about a likely monopoly with the App Store culminated in a publication of Wall street journal that put, say, "all the cards on the table."
According to the newspaper's analysis, the company would have altered its store's algorithm to prioritize its apps over third-party software, which for years was among the most popular options in App Store searches. This theory was later “ratified” by the New York Times, and Ma had to move the chopsticks.
Now, however, a new accusation has emerged that the company has indeed altered the App Store algorithms following the above reports. More precisely, the development company Blix (creator of Blue Mail email client) claims to have discovered new data which points out that Apple has long suppressed third-party app ratings in the App Store. The information is from Washington post.
According to the founders of Blix, they distrusted the App Store's rating method at the end of September, when Blue Mail moved from 143 to 13th place in Ma's e-mail app ranking just after the report. New York Times have been published.
Based on information and belief, Apple changed its search algorithms in an apparent attempt to remove the manipulation and suppression techniques previously employed that were now under scrutiny following the extensive report of the New York Times.
Still according to executives, the reason Apple has “neglected” the Blue Mail app for so long is precisely that the software “attracts ordinary consumers thanks to its richness of features compared to the basic iOS Mail app” .
Blix is waging yet another (older) battle with Apple, in which it requires the company to redistribute Blue Mail on the Mac App Store. The e-mail client was removed from the store last June, and since then the developer has accused Ma of “antitrust violations”. According to Apple, Blue Mail was removed from MAS because it duplicated another Blix app, TypeApp.
Back on the app rating charge, Blix closes by saying that Apple's software is the only one on the App Store without rating. They also suggest that the company intentionally singled out apps with lower ratings to "confuse customers and make them think there were only lower quality alternatives to the Mail app."
Apple has not commented on Blix's accusations so far. The company is also being accused of monopolizing the App Store in the largest judicial sphere in the United States and even in Russia.

Following similar moves from competitors across the industry, DirecTV has announced an expansion of its out-of-home viewing platform, DirecTV Everywhere.
Starting tomorrow, the new update to the service will allow subscribers to view over 30 channels from the DirecTV content pool outside the home on their smartphones and tablets. According to a report by Variety, the service will be available over both WiFi and over “mobile Internet connections”, though DirecTV’s press release did not specify the latter capability.
Most notable in the new programming lineup are top premium channels such as HBO, Starz, Encore and Showtime, as well as their subsidiary channels like Starz Edge and Showtime Next. Other new options include popular cable networks such as The Travel Channel and Food Network, supplemented by more peripheral programming like The Tennis Channel. In addition, the company has bolstered its in-home viewing to over 100 channels, and expanded its online content at DirecTV.com to include on demand content from over 40 channels, with up to 19,000 titles available from a computer.
The company’s Android app has also been updated to include support “across all screen sizes and various operating systems,” which will include the majority of Android devices, though it is unclear which, if any, tablets and smartphones in the Android universe will be left out of the equation.
While DirecTV touts itself as the pioneer of out-of-home streaming with its original NFL Sunday Ticket mobile service, the company has been under pressure to add a more diverse line-up of mobile content thanks to recent moves from cable providers like Comcast and Verizon’s FiOS, as well as massive expansion of mobile viewing from Slingbox and direct satellite competitor DishNetwork’s Hopper with Sling service.
The company claims that more evolutions of the DirecTV Everywhere service are still to come, and in this ever-evolving mobile landscape, you can bet on it.

Last December, Kojima Productions shook the gaming world with the announcement of a collaboration with Platinum Games on the latest iteration of the Metal Gear franchise, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. The initial trailer, revealed at the 2011 Video Game Awards, gave us a glimpse at what looked like a very significant departure from the standard Metal Gear title.
Now, in preparation for this year’s E3, Konami has unveiled a new trailer, providing another glimpse of what Kojima Productions and Platinum games have in store for 2013.
Taking place several years after the end of Metal Gear Solid 4, Revengeance finds Raiden dragged back into battle in a world gone wrong following the fall of the Patriots. Showcasing what Platinum Games does best, the action and combat looks quite solid, leaving no doubt that the development team is intent on making the game as good as they possibly can.
However, the question that remains to be answered at this point is just how much of a Metal Gear game Revengeance will be. While stealth gameplay was briefly present in the trailer, the game itself looks to be a rather brutal one, bringing into question whether the game will fit in with the tone of the franchise.
Set for release in early 2013, a demo of the game is scheduled to be included with the retail version of the upcoming Zone of the Enders HD Collection this fall and will be made available on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live at a later date. Until then, only time will tell what this new generation of Metal Gear will bring to the table.

Verizon version of the BlackBerry Priv gets FCC certification
The BlackBerry Priv has taken a step closer to its launch on Verizon. Big Red's version of the Android slider has paid a visit to the FCC. This is important to BlackBerry as the company reported a lower than expected sales figure of 700,000 handsets for its fiscal Q3. Having the Priv available on the nation's largest carrier can only be a positive for BlackBerry.
While the Priv might seem pricey at $699.99, BlackBerry CEO John Chen hinted during the company's Q3 earnings conference call, that the Priv will be getting a price cut. Chen made it sound as though this will take place in late February, around the time that MWC kicks off.
Since we can't imagine the phone launching on Verizon and getting a price cut just a few weeks later, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Priv launch on Verizon in February at a reduced price.

Self-Employment in the Digital Age: Sellers and Consultants report a Happy Jumia Black Friday 2016
More than 13,000 sellers on the Jumia platform participated in Jumia Black Friday offering up to 70% discounts
LAGOS, Nigeria, December 9, 2016/ — The 2016 edition of Jumia Black Friday may have come and gone, but the excitement and taste of success still lingers for the sellers, sales agents and community of entrepreneurs who experienced impressive sales and positive customer feedback during the annual sales event.
Jumia Nigeria (www.Jumia.com.ng) has reported 8 million visitors to its site during the 12 days of Jumia Black Friday, as well as a positive shift and perception in customer experience. Out of the hundreds of thousands of orders placed during Jumia Black Friday, 75% of orders had shipped by Friday November 25th. (See full infographic for more amazing Jumia Black Friday figures).
More than 13,000 sellers on the Jumia platform participated in Jumia Black Friday offering up to 70% discounts. This was in addition to the major “hero deals” sponsored by key partners like Binatone, Polystar, HP, Innjoo, Infinix, Etihad and MTN.
“This year’s Jumia Black Friday was a strong showing and collective effort,” said Juliet Anammah, Jumia Nigeria CEO. “We’re particularly excited about the sellers and sales agents who pleasantly reported a big jump in sales and increased incomes.”
Andrew Ewona, the owner of Renda Clothing, is one of the more than 13,000 sellers who participated in Jumia Black Friday by offering discounts on a wide selection of products.
“I sold my items between 20 – 40% discount, and my orders increased by 150% during Black Friday,” Ewona said of Renda clothing which specializes in female clothing.
Jumia sellers like Ewona are small entrepreneurs, suppliers and manufacturers who sell their products on the Jumia website to reach larger audiences and increase their incomes: once a customer places an order, they drop off the products at Jumia warehouses to be quality checked and shipped to customers.
“I got feedback that customers were happy with my products and a major factor I think is because of the rigorous quality checks Jumia conducts,” Ewona said who has been on the Jumia platform for four months.
Omowunmi Adebayo, a J-Force Talent Manager, reported a 500% increase in sales revenue among her team of independent sales agents, also known as JForce agents.
“During Black Friday, I had sales agents who attested to the fact that Jumia had items that were more than 50% cheaper than what they’ll get in the market,” Adebayo reported.
“We had a lot of customers purchase HP latops, InnJoo Max 3, a person bought 200 pieces of Tecno L8. According to [the agent], she got the Tecno L8 15% cheaper than what we will get in the market.”
The Jumia J-Force programme has empowered 45,000 agents who have received sales training and make a living selling products to customers, families, friends and colleagues.
Jumia Nigeria CEO, Juliet Anammah attested to this as narrated how all the teams across company joined the warehouse team from Monday to Sunday, picking, checking and packing the thousands of orders customers placed. “All hands were on deck to make sure we delivered to our customers more discounts and more convenience for a successful 2016 Black Friday experience.”

SMEs duped by media scammers
Ever booked an advertisement in Cat Fancier Monthly magazine? If you answered yes, you may be among the many Australian businesses falling victim to media scams designed to trick you into spending money on advertisements in fake publications.
Thankfully, Cat Fancier Monthly magazine is not real. But that’s also the problem. The Circulations Audit Board (CAB) estimates that more than 150 fake publications are operating in Australia, deceiving businesses into placing ads that never reach their intended audience, and into paying invoices that seem to be for real advertisements.
Australian businesses are losing more than 29 million dollars per year on media scams – a figure NSW Fair Trading says may just be the tip of the iceberg. “The scam figures we have are very conservative, given that many businesses aren’t even aware they’ve been scammed and many others prefer not to acknowledge it,” says Don Jones, assistant commissioner for compliance and enforcement. “We’re not talking immediately obvious scams – often the people behind them are using real business processes as a template, to appeal to business sense. Whether it is paying to advertise jobs in fake classifieds or placing ads in magazines that simply don’t exist, the risks for business are great.”
In a world saturated by businesses trying to capture revenue from other businesses, it is more important than ever to stand out from the crowd and sing your hedonic song to cashed-up consumers. But instead, customers are wary, and shying away from spending hard-earned dollars by the fear of not making the right choices.
Make the right choice and invest your marketing resources into advertising with magazines that are legitimate, effective and well-respected in the industry, such as Marketing magazine.

NFL Faces Class Action Lawsuit Over Alleged NFL Sunday Ticket Unfair Business Practices
The NFL is facing a $6 billion class action lawsuit over its handling of out-of-market games and prices of its NFL Sunday Ticket subscription package, a judge ruled earlier this week. The lawsuit alleges that the NFL broke the law in how it limited the number of games shown outside the package while driving up the cost of the premium Sunday Ticket subscription.
At the core of the suit is the plaintiff’s assertion that by the NFL limiting the number of games available via traditional broadcast means and forcing consumers to opt into a service controlled by a single provider, it violates United States antitrust laws governing non-competitive business practices.
The plaintiffs are composed of two groups, individuals who subscribed to Sunday Ticket in one class and commercial subscribers — including bars, restaurants, and hotels — in the other class. The case was certified by U.S. District Judge Philip Gutierrez allowing it to move forward as a class action lawsuit. A trial over these matters is set for a February 2024 start date.
“We continue to believe that the plaintiffs’ claims have no merit and will vigorously defend our position in this matter,” an NFL spokesperson said.
For practically its entire existence, the NFL Sunday Ticket has lived exclusively on DIRECTV, but starting in the fall, will move to YouTube TV. The popular out-of-market package allows customers to watch all NFL games that are not available either regionally or nationally in their specific local market. The lawsuit alleges that the limiting of games outside this package, combined with the steep price tag, was unlawful.
The plaintiffs are seeking damages dating back to as far as 2011. While neither DIRECTV nor the NFL have disclosed the Sunday Ticket’s total number of subscribers, expert estimates put the individual subscriber total at 2.4 million and the commercial at approximately 48,000 subcribers.
This is not the first time the NFL has found itself in court over its Sunday Ticket package. In 2019 it faced an Antitrust lawsuit over the way it handled the limiting of out-of-market games. The issue even worked its way up to the Supreme Court, where the Supreme Court rejected DirecTV and NFL’s case, which allowed the plaintiffs to proceed with their case.
The outcome of this case could have major ramifications for sports broadcasting moving forward, especially for league run out-of-market packages like MLB.TV, NBA League Pass, and MLS Season Pass.
NFL Sunday Ticket
NFL Sunday Ticket is a subscription video streaming service that allows football fans to watch every live out-of-market NFL game on Sunday afternoons on YouTube or YouTube TV.
If you use YouTube TV as your live TV provider, you’ll save $100 off the package price.
Users can choose to add NFL RedZone, which bounces from game to game. But Sunday Ticket is superior for fans who want to see every play of their favorite teams, even if they don’t live where the games are locally televised.

Who says Whole Foods can't be romantic?!
Rita Ora and Calvin Harris were spotted packing on the PDA on Thursday at the high-end grocery store in Beverly Hills, Calif, where the loved-up couple couldn't hide their affection for each other as they stocked up on essentials.
Dressed in a blue plaid shirt, a black baseball cap and comfy black pants, a fresh-faced Ora wrapped her arms tightly around her music producer beau, who was grabbing kale and additional produce from the vegetable aisle.
Harris also looked casual for the grocery outing, sporting a black bomber jacket, dark denim jeans and a white T-shirt.

Kendall J. Powell‘s ‘Cheerios’ calls on Rapper Nelly to serve as its new brand ambassador this year, marking his latest move to boost his visibility before the release of his brand new album!
Enlisting the star to front their ‘Must Be The Honey’ Honey Nut Cheerios campaign, the General Mills owned brand has kicked off a mass media initiative that will see Nelly rock digital ads, billboards and a social media driven effort to push the cereal…and his own new LP, ‘M.O‘.
Today, one of the first fruits of the deal’s labour was plucked with the release of a short ad directed by Hype Williams, featuring the ‘Get Like Me’ MC and the swagged out ‘Homebee’.
Check it out below!!
With only a select number of Urban acts able to generate interest without deals like these, it’s great to see Camp Nelly think up unique ways to push his cause to the masses.
Indeed, by aligning himself with an established and trusted household product, Nelly does wonders for his own positioning and hopefully see ‘M.O’ move more units than it would have done without this.
With this in mind, here’s hoping R&B’s leading ladies take note.
For, with so many- if not all of them- celebrated for their personal styles, it’s a wonder none of them have hooked up with the likes of SoftSheen-Carson to force themselves into the homes of the very people they depend on to pick up their albums come release week.
Think about it?
What better way is there to reach one’s audience if not by reaching them via their everyday goods.

One of the big moves to be made at Zynga (NASDAQ:ZNGA) by previous CEO Don Mattrick was the large purchase of NaturalMotion. The game studio had several successful mobile games including the racing game CSR Racing and more importantly impressive graphics.
The stock traded at $3.56 on the day of the announcement and hasn't seen a lot of progress in that time that has included two more CEOs. Now the question is whether the NaturalMotion purchase is finally going to pay off big time over the holidays, providing a catalyst for the stock to finally breakout.
Back along with the Q4 2013 earnings report on January 30, 2014, Zynga announced the purchase of privately-held NaturalMotion for $527 million. The deal involved $391 million in cash and 39.8 million shares for a company expected to generated 2014 bookings of up to $80 million.
The deal brought cutting edge technology, yet until recently, Zynga went well over two years before releasing a meaningful game from the purchase. Until the holiday release of Dawn of Titans, NaturalMotion will have only delivered the follow-up game to the hit CSR Racing that was already released prior to the acquisition.
In essence, the deal has been a total failure in the goal of accelerating mobile growth, though signs are starting to show that NaturalMotion could finally pay off in a big way. The release of CSR Racing 2 in July was an initial hit, but until the last week the game appeared doomed for ultimate failure. The game now ranks close to a Top 10 grossing on the crucial iPhone generating over $115K per day in the U.S. alone.
Possibly even more important is finally the release of DoT. The action strategy game has seen high monetization in soft launch and has the cutting-edge technology experience for a mobile game that could become the first mobile mega hit for Zynga. According to ThinkGaming, the top iPhone games produce over 10x the revenue of CSR2.
What's for sure is that the combination of these games along with the release of FarmVille: Tropic Escape will finally usher Zynga into a dominant mobile game position. My last research article focused on this subtle shift and how the stock would trade better if the market only viewed the mobile bookings without taking into account the sliding web bookings.
As a reminder, Q3 mobile bookings were up 34% YoY to $162 million. Mobile accounted for 83% of bookings and these three potential hit games will help accelerate the shift with Zynga finally having a slate of games released from NaturalMotion.
The key investor takeaway is that tepid guidance from the mobile game developer provided on November 2 will probably lead to a $200 million bookings quarter and produce another record quarter for mobile. Total bookings last Q4 were only $182 million and didn't top that level until the recent $196 million for Q3.
Most importantly, the release of DoT at the end of Q4 could set up 2017 for a phenomenal start as the size and scope of mobile bookings will finally push the whole company back into growth mode next year. For this reason, Zynga might finally head back above $3 for good.

What happened to Tail ‘O the Pup? The giant hot dog-shaped icon was forced to exit its West Hollywood location five years ago for a development that never broke ground and now sits in a Torrance warehouse covered by a blue plastic tarp. Older Angelenos remember the days when Pup sat on LaCienega, newer ones the more recently shuttered stand on San Vicente. Now a new generation could be getting the same pup in a new location as owner Dennis Blake tells The L.A. Times, “I’ve been looking for a new place for it for a year – in West Hollywood, West L.A., Santa Monica, even Beverly Hills. Someplace our built-in clientele can find us… I’m ready to rock and roll.”
While no plans are solidified, the Pup’s return is being considered at a perfect time. Fast comfort foods are still enjoying mega-popularity, with recent local examples like Larkin Mackey opening a mac and cheese restaurant, Roy Choi being crowned a Food and Wine “best chef” of 2009, and 8 Oz. Burger still sitting where Table 8 is not. Food trucks have shown the demand for cheap eats on the road, while hot dog vendors proliferate from Let’s Be Frank, vegan Frankenstand, and a dozen Downtown bacon-wrappers to Pasadena’s new Slaw Dogs and the specialty sausage boom from Burbank to Downtown to Westwood to Santa Monica. Not only that, but food-shaped buildings, part of SoCal’s cultural heritage, are set to return. Lastly, the line at Pink’s shows an undying enthusiasm for edible local legends, even when they are average. Pup could surely cash in on all or one of the above trends if it does indeed return to our streets as we ‘re hoping.
Quite a Tale for the Pup [L.A. Times]

New Dyson invention: groom tool for pets
Published 05/11/2010 | 11:29
The "Groom Tool", features stainless steel bristles which the company says will help remove loose hair and dead skin before it is shed. It also claims that it could help people with allergies.
Vacuuming the dog could become a regular part of the housework, James Dyson has suggested.
Speaking at the launch of a new accessory from his Dyson vacuum cleaner company, the inventor suggested that owners could directly clean their dogs to prevent unwanted hair covering furniture.
The “Groom Tool”, which is only compatible with Dyson’s own machines, features stainless steel bristles which the company says will help remove loose hair and dead skin before it is shed. It also claims that it could help people with allergies.
James Dyson claimed that “A moulting dog isn’t man’s best friend. Conventional grooming tools create a fur cloud and more cleaning.”
The company stressed that the tool causes dogs no discomfort and hadbeen rigorously tested. Bristle length can be adjusted, and the accessory is designed to automatically suck all hair and allergens up before they are dispersed.
The groom tool is only suitable for dogs with medium and long hair.
The product is being launched online initially and is likely to be available in shops from spring next year.

Japanese auto parts maker Takata Corp expressed condolences on Tuesday to victims of its faulty air bags linked to at least 16 deaths and 180 injuries around the world, but stopped short of offering a full apology. It came as shareholders demanded answers at the firm's final AGM.
It's expressed condolences to the victims of its faulty air bags linked to at least 16 deaths. But only after media criticism - Takata didn't address victims at a news conference on Monday And there's still been no full apology. That didn't impress shareholders who got their chance to demand answers at the firm's AGM - its last as a listed company. (SOUNDBITE) (Japanese) UNIDENTIFIED SHAREHOLDER SAYING: "I think as a shareholder I am not happy with the management's handling of the last few years so I want to see it through to the end." Takata filed for bankruptcy protection in Japan and the U.S. on Monday after almost a decade of recalls and lawsuits. Some are now questioning whether justice has been done. (SOUNDBITE) (Japanese) UNIDENTIFIED YOUNG MALE SAYING: "I get the feeling they are trying to just sweep everything under the carpet by saying the company is bankrupt. They are blaming Takata, but I don't think there's been enough confirmation on whether the companies who used the airbags are also to blame." Takata is the biggest Japanese manufacturer to go bankrupt after facing tens of billions of dollars in liabilities. Its shares will be delisted at the end of July - their value has dropped more than 90 percent since its last major stock price peak in 2014. The company will be divided in two - it's "healthy" division, which includes seatbelts and steering wheels, will go to Chinese-owned and US-based Key Safety Systems. Takata's U.S arm will continue to supply replacement inflators for the recall. The company's CEO and executives are expected to resign at the beginning of 2018.

One Plus is now about to launch its budget-friendly device Nord SE. This device will be launched in Q1 of next year. Earlier the company has also started expanding its lineup recently with Nord N10 5G and N100. These mobile specifications have been leaked. But this leak did not give too much information which is required for the user at the time of purchase of gadgets. This will be a budget-friendly device. We have also seen that the Nord devices of the One Plus are budget-friendly. This device will be available in India and Europe. But for the US people, there might be the chances that this device will not be available. But this gadget will launch shortly after One Plus 9 which is scheduled to be launched around mid-March of 2021.
Nord SE Specs
There are not many specifications that are revealed by the company regarding this gadget. However, we can say that this device is a mystery at this point in time. But we can expect that it will use ab AMOLED display. It will clear upgrade from the LCD panel. It will include a 4500 mAh battery. It will also be offering Warp Charge 65 with a full charge in just 40 minutes. However, we are not sure about the connectivity that will offer 5G connectivity features or not. About the camera and other specifications are not revealed yet. But as Nord N10 was 5G this could also be the 5G device. It is also expected that this device will be powered by Snapdragon 765G SoC.
The company has given us too many budget-friendly devices. This time the SE gadget will also be budget-friendly and the users will love this device in terms of its battery life. We can see that this device will make big in the market just like various other One Plus devices have made around the globe. Also in India, there are already two devices that are on its way they are One Plus Nord N10 and N100. This wrap charging facility which the company has already introduced in One Plus 8T. So till now, we shall wait for the specifications about SE.

Belmar, the 22-block retail/residential/dining office district that is the downtown for Lakewood, Colo., soon will be adding an even greater array for eating options, as a former parking area on Alameda Avenue is converted into a restaurant and retail district. Construction is under way for a late 2018 completion, with Starwood planning to add quick-service restaurants and more to the location.
The new offerings will complement an already thriving array of restaurants and fast-food options at the complex, including Bar Louie, Brodo Italian Scratch Kitchen, Champa Street Burger Works, Chuy’s, Crazy Mountain Tap Room, Little India Restaurant & Bar, Crazy Mountain Tap Room, Pho Saigon Basil-Lakewood, Baker Street Pub & Grill, The Rock Wood Fired Kitchen, PF Chang’s Wasabi Sushi Bar, STACK Subs, and Jamba Juice, among others, said Bryant Siragusa, Vice President, National Restaurant and Entertainment Leasing.
The site will be particularly ideal as it can be easily accessed from four lanes of traffic, explained Bryant Siragusa, Vice President, National Restaurant and Entertainment Leasing.
"Lakewood is the fifth most populous city in Colorado, and the entire Denver/Aurora/Lakewood region has seen a population increase of nearly 12 percent from 2010 to 2016," he explained. "This is a busy town, and its people need quick, high-quality, convenient dining. And of course, guests can then visit the many shops and services in this true downtown project. "
Belmar is one of Starwood’s most successful projects, with a resulting high demand for space. With a substantial amount parking already situated in and near the complex, replacing parking with more activity is a higher, better use for the pace, Siragusa added.
"This will be one of the most popular areas of the complex," he said.

India's biggest home-grown online market players Flipkart and Snapdeal are already facing stiff competition from the US e-commerce giant Amazon. And if one goes by recent news reports the inevitable entry of China's online powerhouse Alibaba sooner or later here will certainly put further pressure on the incumbents.
Over the years, these players have added close to lakhs of online vendors to boost their product categories in order to deliver goods quickly to the customers.
But often there have been reports which suggest the growing tiff between these online sellers and the e-commerce companies over frequent policy flip-flops by the latter.
Domestic online marketplace player Flipkart is facing a similar situation after several of its online merchants threatened to exit or become inactive after the company put conditions on them, says the Economic Times report.
It is not the the higher commissions charged by Flipkart that is bothering the sellers. They are irked by the unilateral changes made in Flipkart's return policy, which would increase their cost of doing business.
Flipkart recently decided, among other measures, to increase the sales commission it levies on merchants, by up to 5 percent in some categories, as well as charge them a shipping fee, a reverse shipping fee, and a collection fee on every product returned by customers, effective June 20, the ET report said.
This may be giving rival Amazon a chance to attract more sellers on to its platform. Already the US giant is the most preferred e-commerce websites among sellers followed by Flipkart and Snapdeal, according to a Nielsen study.
While Amazon had the highest top of the mind recall (25 percent), Flipkart stood second (21 percent) and Snapdeal (20 percent), it added.
Although, Amazon, too, has recently undertaken increase in commissions, the company has clarified that it does not charge its sellers for handling product returns.
"To ensure the equilibrium of demand and supply, it is essential for e-commerce portals to focus on developing an inviting platform for online sellers in the country. Sellers are also increasingly discerning when it comes to reaching their customer and meeting business needs," said Dolly Jha, executive director of Nielsen India, in her report.
The US company was also ahead of its Indian competitors in terms of overall awareness about local e-commerce brands.
Amazon, which launched its India arm Amazon.in in 2015, is projected to see revenues of $120 billion by 2020 from $30 billion at the end of fiscal 2016. Also, the company recently made an announcement to invest another $3 billion in India to strengthen its position further.

It would seem that Riot is working on something other than League of Legends.
As pointed out by Niko Partners analyst Daniel Ahmad (below), a new project from the studio called Teemo's Adventure has been given the greenlight for sale in China.
Teemo is a League of Legends character who is famous for annoying his opponents into making mistakes and thus letting him win.
Ahmad points out that the game is set for PC (we'll take his word as our Chinese is somewhat rusty), while Chinese tech and entertainment giant Tencent - which owns Riot - is publishing the project.
Whether this is the project that Riot's founders are working on having moved back to development in October, though that's only a few months ago so the odds are against this being true.
Not sure if Western media is reporting on this yet.— Daniel Ahmad (@ZhugeEX) December 19, 2017
Looks like a game called "Teemo's Adventure" has been approved for sale in China. Riot Games is listed along with Tencent as the developer / publisher.
It's going to be a PC game apparently.
Teemo is a LOL champion. pic.twitter.com/5cVLWvkuex

While Connecticut consumers are beginning to receive payments from a prior partial settlement in the multistate e-book price-fixing lawsuit, a hearing on damages is expected to get underway against Apple this summer regarding the same case.
The lawsuit was brought in 2012 by Connecticut Attorney General George Jepsen and attorneys general from 32 other states against Apple Inc. and five major publishers.
The publishers—Hachette Book Group Inc., HarperCollins Publishers, Simon & Schuster Inc., Holtzbrink Publishers (Macmillan) and Penguin Group Inc.—settled the claims against them for a total nationwide payment of $166 million, of which approximately $3 million is being distributed to Connecticut residents. Those settlements have now been approved by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
Apple declined to settle the claims against it and a three-week trial took place in U.S. District Court in June 2013. Following that trial, U.S. District Judge Denise Cote found that Apple played a central role in facilitating and executing a conspiracy to eliminate retail price competition in order to raise e-book prices, in violation of state and federal antitrust laws.
Apple is appealing that decision. A second trial to determine the amount of damages Apple would pay has been tentatively scheduled for this summer. “At the upcoming damages trial, Connecticut—along with Texas and New York—will be leading the effort on behalf of our partner states to obtain substantial additional compensation for consumers as well as civil penalties for the state,” Jepsen said in a statement.
Assistant Attorneys General Joseph Nielsen, Gary Becker and Richard Porter, and Assistant Attorney General Michael Cole, chief of the Antitrust and Government Program Fraud Department, are assisting Jepsen with this case.•

Recently, there’s been an influx of reported fatalities that health officials in California, Indiana, Illinois, Oregon, and Minnesota have linked to vaping. Public officials, including President Trump, have called for additional regulations and an outright ban on electronic vapes. This is certainly a tragedy, and cause for concern, but let’s not overreact. We shouldn’t start banning products from the marketplace without a clear understanding of the cause. Necessity breeds solutions and they can be found in this situation if we pump the alarmist brakes and start focusing on the need for research to correctly identify and address the problem.
This had been a major topic at the recent conferences I’ve attended. What I’ve been told is that this is unequivocally a supply chain issue. That it’s 100% not the marijuana or hemp-derived cannabinoid portion of the vape juice that’s causing the problem. Rather, vape pen manufacturers source cheaply produced cartridges from China and other Asian countries. Metal inside these cartridges can leach into the vape liquid. It then gets heated, vaporized, and inhaled.
In another industry, this wouldn’t generate the same level of panic.
Take Coca-Cola for example. If the beverage got packaged in a cheap aluminum can, the metals leached into the soda, and people started getting sick, would we react the same way – raising the alarm about the beverage while ignoring the can?
The issue is the packaging supply chain. I would bet that packaging standards for vape manufacturers already exist, but haven’t been highlighted in the industry, until now.
When crisis hits, public officials feel pressure to respond quickly.
People are quick to point the finger at cannabis oil in these scenarios, it reminds me of the yellow journalism that led cannabis prohibition in the 20th century. If we don’t take the necessary time to identify the issue, additional cannabis industry regulations could be seen as a quick fix. But that’s not going to solve this.
The vape crisis is a serious issue that needs to be investigated and thoroughly researched. But these things take time. It took the FDA nearly fifteen years to regulate nicotine-containing vape pens. We cannot make this about cannabis vapes because it is not about cannabis. This is about the quality of the delivery system and hardware. The more mindful we are of our response to this crisis, the more we encourage our policymakers to do their job, call for research, and discover the cause of the problem. And the more we resist falling in line with a mass media spreading alarmist rhetoric to increase viewership.

There's an article in the LA Times about it here: https://www.latimes.com/food/story/2019-09-27/lowell-farms-cannabis-cafe-west-hollywood-weed
The Lowell Cafe is a new restaurant and bar in West Hollywood that will allow diners to smoke marijuana inside and out thanks to a new license issued by the city. It’s slated to open Oct. 1 and when it does, it will be the first of its kind.
If you’re imagining a giant smoky room filled with bowls of weed, couches and lots of pizza, think again. Imagine instead a functional restaurant with servers, plus a special air-filtration system that sucks up and filters the smoke from people smoking weed, everywhere.
“We have families reaching out wanting to bring their kids or grandparents and high school groups of friends flying from all over the world,” restaurant director Kevin Brady said. “I feel like we’re Disney World.”

Belushi became a marijuana farmer when Oregon legalized recreational pot use in 2014.
He said when pot becomes legal on January 1, he's seriously considering driving a replica of the 'Blues Mobile' through Chicago, with a new feature. It would be topped with a giant joint instead of a PA speaker, down Lake Street and under the L train to mark the occasion.
Belushi also plans to launch growing operations in California and Nevada. He wants to line up partnerships with growers, manufacturers and pot retailers in order to take his Blues Brothers brand national.

The Cannabis Control Commission on Tuesday voted to approve regulations that will allow marijuana home delivery services to operate legally within the state. The rules will also allow for marijuana cafes, where people can go with friends to eat, smoke or vape marijuana legally.
“We feel like we have got a good balance between trying to meet the will of the voters but recognizing that there are concerns from a public health and a public safety standpoint,” said Cannabis Control Commission Chairman Steven Hoffman.
The vote was 4-1, with Commissioner Jennifer Flanagan the only dissenting vote.

There will not be one sweeping law passed that will legalize cannabis. Instead what we will see is a gradual movement towards removing the impediments to doing business piece by piece in the areas of law enforcement, tax regulation, interstate commerce and finance.
Today we took one major step forward with the successful passing of the SAFE banking act in the House of Representatives. It still needs to get through the senate and get signed into law but with such widespread bipartisan support it seems a good bet it will go all the way. It also paves the way for other impediments to Cannabis businesses to be removed on the federal level. Here's the full story from: https://www.ganjapreneur.com/us-house-approves-cannabis-banking-bill/
The House of Representatives passed the SAFE Banking Act this afternoon in a historic and bipartisan landslide of support for giving state-legal cannabis companies access to banking services.
H.R. 1595, better known as the SAFE Banking Act, received a full House floor vote this afternoon, passing the chamber in a bipartisan 321-103 vote. It was the first time that stand-alone cannabis legislation was considered by the full U.S. House of Representatives.
The bill aims to remove the cash-only element from state-legal cannabis industries by explicitly giving banking rights to cannabis businesses and related companies. The bill’s primary sponsor Colorado Rep. Ed Perlmutter (D) said during his opening remarks that the Act’s main purpose is to support “public safety, accountability, and states rights.”
Some activists have criticized the effort for not going far enough to reform federal cannabis laws, but many cannabis advocates have applauded the SAFE Banking Act as a logical first step toward repealing the federal prohibition of cannabis.
