With new mesothelioma and ovarian cancers being filed every day against Johnson & Johnson and other talc product manufacturers, a new legal attack has been launched under California’s Prop65 law. A lawsuit has been filed accusing Johnson & Johnson, the maker of Gold Bond talc powder, manufacturers of generic talc products and retailers of failing to warn consumers of the cancer risk their products posed.
Prop 65 Passed to Protect Against Cancers Like Mesothelioma
When the California public voted to enact Proposition 65 in 1986, it took action to prevent exposure cancers like malignant mesothelioma. The law protects drinking water from contamination and requires companies to give notice when their products expose consumers to toxic chemicals that cause birth defects, reproductive harm or cancer.
Asbestos is included on the list of items covered by Prop 65, and following thousands of diagnoses of malignant mesothelioma and ovarian cancer, advocates have filed suit in Los Angeles Superior Court accusing cosmetic talc companies of producing and selling products that they knew contained asbestos without giving consumers warning.
Mesothelioma Advocates Say Talc Manufacturer Actions Misled Consumers
In addition to arguing that asbestos in talc-based cosmetic products led to mesothelioma and ovarian cancer in consumers, the filing alleges that the talc used in these products was reformulated in a way that introduced other toxins, including arsenic, lead and hexavalent chromium. Speaking of the importance of the case, one stakeholder said, “The defendants, who represent brands trusted by millions of consumers, have to be held accountable for causing so much harm and putting so many more people at risk.”
The suit names Johnson & Johnson, retailers CVS Health Corporation, Target Corporation, Walgreen Co., Walmart, and Dollar General, all of which sell generic brands of talc-based powder products. It also names the companies that supply the retailers those products, as well as Sanofi SA and Bausch Health Companies, which manufacturer Gold Bond Powder. The suit is asking for Prop 65 labels to be added to several products, as well as for restitution and civil penalties of $2,500 per day for each violation. It also proposes an alternative of replacing talc in baby powder products with cornstarch.
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with mesothelioma and you believe that it was caused by exposure to a talc-based product, we can help. Contact the Patient Advocates at Mesothelioma.net at 1-800-692-8608 to learn more.FREE Mesothelioma Packet

Stan Lee’s Comic Con (previously known as Stan Lee’s Comikaze) – LA Convention Center cosplay photos!
The Electronic Entertainment Expo (also known as E3) is a few days away and we’re already hearing about a bunch of new games before the festivities. Here’s what we know so far:
Even though on Wednesday Ubisoft is premiering Watch Dogs 2, there was a leaked photo of the website with the release date of November 16, 2016. The new title in the series takes place in San Francisco with a young new protagonist rather than going back to the streets of Chicago with the unfavorable character, Aiden Pierce. Usually an annual Assassin’s Creed would come out during that time, but Ubisoft decided to put a hold on the series this year and replace it with Watch Dogs 2. You can watch the trailer on watchdogs.com on June 8th at 9am PDT.

“And we, like you, Latoya, we jumped up and down. We celebrated that. Nobody stopped us, and it felt great,” Burke said to Disney executive producer Latoya Raveneau, who has admitted to having a “gay agenda,” and wanting to get “gay advanced” with regards to children’s content at Disney.
NEW: Disney corporate president Karey Burke, the "mother of two queer children," says the company has been "targeting Gen Z and millennials" with LGBTQIA+ "inclusion" content. Her son told her that "Gen Z is 30-40% queerer" and that Disney "better get with it." pic.twitter.com/CYYD7NqKZg

Burke, who has one “pansexual” child and one transgender child, went on to say that she believes “nobody stopped us because we were targeting Gen Z and millennials.”
“We were targeting a young, I think, more open-minded — and now we know, as my son texted me this morning: ‘Gen Z is 30 to 40 percent queerer than the other generations, mom, so Disney better get with it,’” the Disney executive added.

Long announced, the Chrome adblocker will soon be a reality. Google has just added its ad blocker to Canary, the experimental version of the browser.
An expected and necessary tool
An ad blocker in Chrome? Yes, and the functionality was already discussed last year by the European representative of Google, through the person of Carlo d'Asaro Biondo, who had justified this addition by responding to a need expressed by users, but also and above all for the firm to fight against the already very well established competition. It is also a way of setting an example for advertising networks by filtering overly intrusive ads that do not meet the specifications, while ensuring that some of its formats are well broadcast. The strategy is therefore winning for the American giant, which holds the most market share.
How to get it?
Google's solution, for the moment newly integrated, is reserved for the latest iterations of Chrome Dev and Canary, intended for developers and advanced users, because they are very frequently updated and not free of bugs. For those who do not want to use an unstable browser, it will be necessary to wait until next year, the time that Google agrees with the various advertisers and decides to globally deploy its ad blocker on the various channels.
But Asus terminals already have this technology since the end of 2015, the same for the South Korean firm which added an adblock plugin and opened its Samsung Internet Browser to all users.
Here are the intrusive ads that Google Chrome will block
Internet advertising is a real plague. Essential to the survival of an independent web, they are often far too intrusive and interfere with navigation. As a result, in Spain, around a third of Internet users ...

Franklin Street to host annual Gumbo Cook-Off
The Franklin Street Events Association is hosting its third annual Gumbo Cook-Off this weekend and Terri Carl, owner of Leroy's Tavern, began making her roux on Wednesday morning.
Carl made her first gumbo ever for the first cook-off three years ago and has tweaked her recipe each year to change up their offerings for the annual competition and fundraiser for local nonprofit organizations. The cook-off is from 1-4 p.m. Saturday and includes 14 businesses including Lamasco Bar & Grill, Leroy's Tavern and Thyme in the Kitchen. People's choice buckets will be at each gumbo location, where attendees can cast votes — $1 equals one vote for their favorite gumbo. Free shuttle service will be provided to each location courtesy of Pink Elephant Shuttle Service. Only 1,000 $15 armbands will be sold for the cook-off and can be purchased at any of the participating businesses on Franklin Street.
Leroy's partnered with United Caring Shelter for this year's cook-off, and Carl said she wanted to come up with a way for people to give to the organization if they weren't able to purchase an armband.
She decided that those visiting the tavern separate from the cook-off could buy a bowl of gumbo for $5 with the proceeds from those sales also going to United Caring Shelter. The bar makes about 35 to 40 gallons of gumbo in preparation for the cook-off.
"We want to get as many people involved with giving back to the community as possible," Carl said.
Leroy's will continue to make and sell its gumbo through Ash Wednesday this year in celebration of Mardi Gras. In addition to it's gumbo, the bar has added a designated driver incentive program. Designated drivers can tell the bartender or server their role in exchange for a pin, which can be redeemed at a later date for $5 off the designated driver's food purchase. Carl said the program will be instituted throughout Franklin Street in the coming weeks and will be called "Safe on Franklin."

American Pacific Group, a San Francisco-based private equity firm, in partnership with Joe Falsetti of Dana Holdings, has acquired SaltStick, an electrolyte replenishment supplement with a strong following among endurance athletes for in-competition and training activities.SaltStick was founded in 2006 by Jonathan Toker, an elite-level triathlete and trail runner who holds a PhD in organic chemistry. SaltStick products are now sold in over 40 countries around the world; products include SaltStick Vitassium, a medical food designed for individuals suffering from sodium and potassium deficiency. This acquisition was the first for American Pacific Group’s newly established holding company, Roadrunner Holdings LLC, which will serve as a platform for the acquisition of high potential sports nutrition brands and related products.
“As a long-distance professional triathlete, I knew there had to be a better way to replenish electrolytes and that’s how SaltStick was born,” said Jonathan Toker, PhD and creator of SaltStick. “Having taken SaltStick from its humble beginnings to a supplement of choice, I’m confident that American Pacific Group is uniquely positioned to propel the brand, products and business forward.”
“We are excited about the future of SaltStick and intend to invest in new product development and expanding the brand’s distribution footprint,” says Fraser Preston, Managing Partner of American Pacific Group. “We will look to build on its market position through acquisitions of ancillary brands within the fragmented sports nutrition space.”

Pistore Marmi had the opportunity to collaborate with the students of the Management department of the Ca’ Foscari University of Venice for the realization of a new stimulating project concerning the theme of corporate sustainability applied to the marble industry.
Coordinated by Professor Francesca Checchinato, the students had to face two challenges:
• telling the value of Pistore Marmi’s corporate sustainability
• defining an effective communication plan for the market launch of a new line of sustainable marble products.
The students did an excellent job, carrying out an in-depth analysis activity and developing interesting and innovative communication plans. But above all, there was no shortage of ideas and creativity.
And thanks to their ideas, the concept of ReMarble was born, a “motto” that immediately captured our attention and which perfectly sums up our idea of corporate sustainability in the marble sector.
ReMarble is giving new life and enhancing leftover materials from other projects, such as marble, onyx, granite and other natural stones. Instead of being disposed of, these stones are reused to compose new precious home decor objects such as trays, underplates, bottle holders, cutlery holders and other tablewear objects in marble.
At Pistore Marmi, we specialize in working with marble, natural, and precious stones for custom projects and objects. You can find us in Cologna Veneta, in the province of Verona.

Clearwire the big kahuna in broadband wireless
Despite using proprietary gear, Clearwire already carries one quarter of the world’s BWA subscribers
Clearwire is by far the largest broadband wireless access (BWA) provider in the world, according to Maravedis, which recently performed a subscriber count of all of global WiMAX and proprietary BWA networks. Clearwire’s 443,000 subscribers give it almost one quarter of all individual broadband wireless connections in the first quarter and more than double the number of total mobile WiMAX subscribers.
Of course, Clearwire is supposed to be a mobile WiMAX provider, but it has yet to launch a WiMAX network. Though it has been running trials in Portland, Ore., for the last year, its first commercial WiMAX won’t come until later this year, after its joint venture with Sprint and its investors close. In the interim though, Clearwire hasn’t been shy about building out networks using proprietary NextNet gear sold by Motorola. Clearwire has targeted mainly mid-sized cities across the US, selling residential and small-business fixed wireless connections as well as offering a nomadic laptop-card service in some markets.
According to the Maravedis report, there are 1.988 million broadband wireless subscribers in the world, more than half of which are on a network using a proprietary broadband wireless network such as Motorola’s NextNet or Canopy or Alvarion or Aperto Networks’ pre-WiMAX kits. Of the 602,000 customers on WiMAX gear, 509,000 have fixed WiMAX service (networks based on the IEEE 802.16d standard), while only 193,000 are using a true mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e) network, and of those, the vast majority, 145,000, are on Korea Telecom’s WiBro network, which gained certification under the WiMAX Forum this year.
Maravedis CEO Adlane Fellah said there may be a lot of momentum behind mobile WiMAX in the industry, but actual customers have yet to emerge. “There’s a situation where the supply side hasn’t caught up to the demand side,” Fellah said. He pointed toward Korea Telecom’s struggles to attract customers to the network -- after several years of operation it hasn’t yet cracked the 200,000-mark -- as well as Wateen Telecom in Pakistan, which has ordered 200,000 CPE units from Motorola but has only sold 10% of them as it ramps up its nationwide network.
Those numbers will eventually pick up, though, as the WiMAX ecosystem builds up steam, Fellah said. The WiMAX Forum has just completed its first round of global certification, so the economies of scale for WiMAX devices and CPEs haven’t yet been achieved. As larger carriers like Clearwire roll out their networks, prices for devices will drop and more operators will be encouraged to roll out service, he said.

The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Bank of England has today voted to keep interest rates constant at 0.5 per cent for another month.
Amid worries over consumer spending levels and the decline in national gross domestic product (GDP) during the fourth quarter of 2010, retailers will be relieved that the cost of borrowing will not be raised for now.
Stubbornly high inflation had caused many to suspect that the rate level would be increased this month, but the MPC has decided keep the rate unchanged for the 11th consecutive month.
Neil Saunders, Consulting Director of Verdict Research, supports the MPC’s decision and is keen to point out the dangers a rate rise would cause to retail.
“Most of the current inflation is caused by factors completely outside of the Bank of England’s control, as such putting up interest rates would have very little impact on the near term inflationary trend,” he said.
“What putting up rates would do, however, is to increase household mortgage and loan costs thereby dampening consumer demand for retail and other goods.
“As such, at this time higher interest rates would have a negative overall impact on the economy - something the Bank will be keen to avoid.”
Yesterday the Director General of the British Retail Consortium (BRC) Stephen Robertson warned that a rates rise would “hamper the recovery”.
BRC and Nielsen research published yesterday showed shop price inflation at a mere 2.5 per cent thanks largely to heavy discounting and clearance sales.

Ice cream maker expands New Berlin plant
Send this to a friend
- Rich Rovito
Growing demand for ice cream ingredients, such as brownie bits and cookie dough pieces, has prompted Denali Ingredients LLC to undertake another expansion of its New Berlin operations.
Denali recently invested more than $3.5 million to buy and equip a second plant in New Berlin that is producing a new line of products, which adds cheesecake pieces and other offerings to its growing line of dairy and ice cream ingredients.
Denali purchased the 38,000-square-foot plant at 3100 S. 166th St., which had been operated by Edy’s Grand Ice Cream, late last year. Wayland, Mich.-based Denali Flavors Inc., which operates Denali Ingredients, spent a few months renovating the facility and installing equipment before recently launching production at the location.
The market for ice cream ingredients is growing in part because of increasing consumer demand for “decadent” ice cream varieties sold at grocery stores, said Neal Glaeser, Denali Ingredients president.
“It’s a whole new ingredients world for us and we’re going to have fun with it,” Glaeser said. “We identified this as an opportunity in a category where there hasn’t been a whole lot of innovation or change.”
The expansion is the second major investment for Denali in New Berlin over the past year. The company invested nearly $2 million in 2009 in its main local production plant at 2400 S. Calhoun Road, where products such as chocolate coatings, fudge sauces, powders, fruit variegates and other ingredients for the dairy, ice cream and food service industries are produced. The fudge used for the popular Moose Tracks varieties of ice cream also is made at the main facility.

Hungry Nation is Next New project
Online food network to launch with two showsNEW YORK -- Think people got enough of all the food programming on television? Next New Networks believes there is room for Web video content for food lovers.
The provider of online TV networks is launching a new food network, called Hungry Nation, Thursday, saying it will be the first-ever indie online network dedicated entirely to food.
How is it different from the food fare on the TV screen? Next New Networks says food appreciation and inspiration rather than complicated recipes, cutting-edge ingredients or star chefs will be in focus.
The channel (HungryNation.tv) kicks off with two shows, one of them being "VendrTV," hosted by Daniel Delaney, which has built a loyal online following as a standalone offer. It will provide a weekly review of the nation's best vendor and street food for Hungry Nation.
The other show ready at launch is called "Working Class Foodies" and is hosted by a brother and sister duo who hit up local farmers markets and make meals for two for less than $10. " 'Hungry Nation' is about real food and real people, and showcases the knowledge, passions and inspiration of the Web's most charismatic food talent," Next New Networks said.
"We saw the opportunity to do food programming in a new way by working with talented creators that have been developing original food content for the Web," said Next New Networks CEO Lance Podell.
"This network is really for every food-lover, regardless of how much they know about cooking, the size of their kitchen, or how many chef's knives they might have," said Kathleen Grace, vp of programming at Next New Networks.
The channel wants to offer five shows by December. Starting next month, for example, Next New Networks partners with Lush Life Prods. to launch a show called "12 Second Cocktails" that will revolve around quick classic drink recipes.
Hungry Nation is the company's first network to be run entirely through the Next New Producers Program, which invites independent producers to develop their own programming with support from Next New Networks.

Supply-chain snarls eat into Kogan’s bottom line
Pureplay electronics retailer Kogan has struggled to maintain momentum in its first half, although its New Zealand subsidiary Mighty Ape reduced the impact on its bottom line.
Citing Covid-related supply chain interruptions and “associated fluctuations in demand” Kogan’s post-tax profit was $14.6 million, down 70.1 per cent, however Mighty Ape’s profit soared 147.3 per cent to $7.1 million. Combined group profit was thus $21.7 million, down by 58 per cent.
The impact of stock shortages and other business interruptions due to the pandemic marred an otherwise strong quarter, with the number of active customers growing 10 per cent during the half and membership of its Kogan First loyalty program reaching 274,000.
“Over 4 million Aussie and Kiwi shoppers have recently experienced the choice, value, and delivery benefits of the Kogan.com group,” said founder and CEO Ruslan Kogan.
As of the end of December, Kogan boasted 3.314 million active customers and Mighty Ape 757,000.
Gross sales of $698 million grew by more than 9 per cent year on year, driven by the “continuously accelerating Kogan Marketplace,” Kogan First, Kogan Energy and Kogan Mobile New Zealand. Some of that growth was offset by a decline in both the Exclusive Brands and Third-Party Brands divisions which had extreme growth in the prior year.
Launched last year, the Kogan Delivery Services business chalked up more than 100,000 deliveries direct to consumers.
Kogan did not offer any projections for performance over the new half-year. “As always we’re obsessed with the long term, and our ever-improving customer experience continues to underpin business success,” he said.

In the UK, customer growth has not been in line with TDC’s expectations and they are withdrawing from the market. easyMobile UK’s 80,000 customers yesterday received a text message explaining that the service will be terminated from 13 December 2006 and any outstanding pre-paid balances will be refunded. easyMobile Germany, however, is to remain a going concern. Yesterday the German MVNO Talkline, a subsidiary of TDC, acquired the remaining 20% of easyMobile Germany to take its holding to 100%. Within a month the service will be renamed CallMobile and service will continue uninterrupted.

In an exclusive interview this morning with Fizzylab’s CEO Scott Hudson, seattle.internet.com has learned that the Seattle-based company is currently looking to be acquired.
According to Hudson, he has recently been involved in serious talks with two large companies, however due to the large response he has received from other companies in the past few days – he has decided to implement a formal auction. The terms of the auction will be decided upon in the next few days.
Fizzylab’s technology to automate the targeting of information was a big hit from its inception. After the company secured $9.5 million in VC back in May 2000, the developer of context-driven search technology went full speed ahead with its flagship product the “Relevator”.
FizzyLab’s Relevator is based on a mathematical modeling system that identifies meaningful relationships between web content based on concepts or themes rather than individual keywords. As visitors browse content on a newspaper site, for example, they will see a button or prompt indicating related articles. Without entering search criteria or typing a single word, this link will take them to a page with links to all articles having a contextual or thematic relationship to the original article.
The company currently has 26 live customers, including the Seattle PI, Business Week and the New York Post.
According to Hudson, Fizzylab is currently not persuing new customers and has reduced its staff from 80 to 16.
Hudson believes that the reason his company is capable of going down the acquisition track is because of its valuable technology. The Fizzylab technology, although currently being used to post related articles, can also be used to post other related items such as products to buy or advertising information.

The lead actress of the most popular Turkish series in Pakistan, Ertugrul’s Esra Bilgic will be working with Pakistan’s three most popular brands and is also planning to visit Pakistan soon.
Ertugrul’s cast is very flabbergasted over the response received from Pakistan, as Pakistani’s continue to indulge in binge-watching Ertugrul on YouTube and also on national TV.
Esra Bilgic about her Pakistan’s visit
After the success of Diriliş: Ertuğrul in Pakistan the cast is eager to visit Pakistan and Esra Bilgic also shown interest in visiting the country.
The Seljuk warrior princess Halime Sultan dropped another major news as well by revealing that she will be working with three top brands of Pakistan.
Though, Esra Bilgic did not publicize the name of Pakistan’s brands but asked her fan-following in Pakistan to wait for more details.
“We will meet when all this is over (talking about the coronavirus) when I’ll be working with Pakistani brands. I’m sharing for the first time that I’m about to do work with three Pakistani most loved brands.”
She added further that she was very glad when Prime Minister of Pakistan urged its citizens to watch the Diriliş Ertuğrul as it reflects the Islamic history and cultural identification.
“When I saw the Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan on Turkish news channels, speaking about the successful project such as Ertugrul should be aired on local channels, I felt amazed and honored as well. If there was not any coronavirus pandemic at the moment, I would have visited Pakistan several times by now”.
About Esra Bilgic working with Pakistan’s three top brands, we can only guesstimate about it, and they may be a clothing brand, a food brand, and a consumer goods company.
All eyes will be now on Esra Bilgic to reveal the names of Pakistani brands and when she does come to Pakistan, the excitement is going to skyrocket.

But there have been some surprises. Perhaps the most notable was the announcement by BC Acquisition Co. LLC in January 2004 that it intended to buy Oneida's Buffalo China plant, which had been slated for closure along with four of Oneida's other factory sites. In an era when most centuries-old dinnerware plants were running out of steam, this visionary group, led by Robert Lupica, believed they could turn the old paradigm on edge and bring something new to the table-literally. Rather than focusing exclusively on its traditional area of expertise, the company decided to reevaluate its options and reinvent itself as ceramic manufacturer with a wide range of capabilities, from decorating small-run, customized items to producing spray dried ceramic bodies and high-tech components on a contract basis.
One year after the plant reopened its doors as Niagara Ceramics in March 2004, the company is well on its way to achieving its goals. Its dogged determination and willingness to be flexible have made all the difference in today's sink-or-swim environment.
"We constantly remind ourselves that our goal is to be here. We understand that we're going to have to continually change to ensure that we're meeting customer and market demands," says Lupica.
Other agile manufacturers are also finding increasing success. In Denmark, the 230-year-old porcelain manufacturer Royal Copenhagen continues to produce its popular Blue Fluted line, which dates back to the origins of the company. But as author Pier Giorgio Burzacchini notes in "Royal Copenhagen Celebrates Continued Success," the company's manufacturing plant "has never stopped modernizing and expanding, and its aesthetic culture has constantly reflected the essence of contemporary society." In September 2004, the company opened a new 161,000-square-foot plant in Denmark with state-of-the-art equipment that ensures the highest possible quality and manufacturing efficiency. And while the Blue Fluted line remains its best-selling product, Royal Copenhagen has continued to reinvent its image by introducing a steady stream of fresh ideas and designs.
Now is not the time to be timid. It is the companies that find a way to stand out from the crowd that will have the best chance of succeeding in the coming months and years.

The ship will be sister to Royal Princess, Regal Princess, Majestic Princess and Sky Princess, which will join the fleet in October 2019.
Jan Swartz, Princess Cruises president, said: “The name Enchanted Princess is captivating and conveys the elegance and grace of our new ship, which will introduce more travellers to the pleasures and value of cruising.
“We are certain Enchanted Princess will exceed the expectations of our guests, ensuring they have the most memorable cruise.”
A sixth Royal-class ship will debut in 2021. Princess Cruises has a further two LNG-powered ships on order, due in late 2023 and spring 2025.
Enchanted Princess will be built by Fincantieri with capacity for 3,660 guests. The line said it would be an “evolution” on the design of its existing Royal-class ships.

JCPenney CEO Marvin Ellison told attendees at the WWD Apparel and Retail CEO Summit in New York City today that former CEO Ron Johnson was like a high school dating experience for the retailer.
"Let's go back to high school and imagine that you dated the same wonderful girl for three years, and all of a sudden, when the prom is going up, you decide that she's no longer good enough ... so you make a play for the homecoming queen, and the homecoming queen says, 'no thank you,' and so you end up going to the prom stag," he said. "JCPenney had a customer that loved us, and we said to the customer, 'We don't like you anymore.' We said we like that [other] customer. We made a play for that customer, and that customer said, 'We don't like you very much.'" Story

New ‘crunch cancellation’ technology cancels the ‘crunch’ of a crisp while gaming | Gaming | Entertainment
New “crunch cancellation” software has been developed – to remove the sound of the bump when wearing headphones. Created by software developer Dylan Fashbaugh, the AI-driven technology listens out for someone’s voice, and separates it from a snack crunch.
When users eat down the microphone, it “cancels” the smile while maintaining the voice sound – meaning people can hum without making a sound.
“Doritos Silent”, the world’s first AI-augmented “silent” tortilla chip technology, has been in development for six months, analyzing more than 5,000 crunch sounds.
Users can now download the software from the brand’s website, and use computer headphones for free. Once installed, you simply turn it on, and it can work with any software that supports voice chat.
It follows a study of 2,000 adults, which found that 46 percent dislike the sound of other people eating. More than a third (35 per cent) feel someone else distracts them from a crunchy snack – and 41 per cent feel self-conscious about making too much noise when enjoying a crunchy snack themselves .
The issue is particularly prominent among players, as a separate poll found that 35 percent claim that the sound of someone’s snickering bothers them.
And 29 per cent went so far as to say it affects their performance, while 18 per cent reckon they want to log out – with 47 per cent naming crisp eaters as the worst offenders.
But eating and gaming go hand in hand, with 86 percent of gamers claiming to snack while playing.
Technology would enable people working from home to deal with crisps when they call in – if they wanted to.
Dylan Fashbaugh, of Smooth Technology, said: “I jumped at the chance to create the first ever “silent” tortilla chip.
“As a player myself, I can testify that nothing puts me off my game more than the sound of someone else munching on a tasty snack.
“After testing more than 5,000 crunch sounds, and carefully training the software to remove the sound, this launch means that everyone will be able to enjoy Doritos, while canceling the crunch .”
Of the 2,000 players surveyed, by OnePoll, 36 percent said they often eat while gaming – rising to 44 percent of 18-24 year olds.
More than a quarter (29 per cent) were distracted by the sounds of other people’s snacks, claiming it affects their performance or prevents them from playing well – and 15 per cent believed it from their colleagues too.
A Doritos spokesperson said: “It’s been hard to keep this one quiet, but we’re finally able to reveal the launch of our “Cruelty Cancel” technology.
“We know the nation loves the satisfying crunch of our tortilla chips, but listening to someone else’s enjoyment can be distracting.
“That’s why we set out to develop the first ever AI-enhanced “silent” snack – and after months of expert development, people all over the country can press down on a microphone without making a sound.”

Charlotte-based Belk, Inc., has jumped on the early Black Friday bandwagon, announcing its stores will open at 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day for the first time this year.
Belk joins Macy's, J.C. Penney, Kohl's and other retailers who have moved their opening times to Thanksgiving itself this year. The 8 p.m. Thursday opening is Belk's earliest ever for Black Friday (for comparison, in past years Belk opened at 3 a.m. on Black Friday).

It's in response to that trend that we open our doors to customers at 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving night for their shopping convenience."
The slew of early store openings announced this year likely mean that Black Friday will start on Thursday night for the foreseeable future. What do you think? Will you join the early crowds? Below is a list of Belk's doorbuster early deals.
"The first 250 customers at each store at the 8 p.m. opening on Thanksgiving will receive a free Belk gift card with a value ranging from$5 to $1,000, and with a guaranteed $1,000 gift card winner in each of the company's 301 stores.

Cryptocurrency has a reputation for being a volatile investment, with big gains and losses sometimes taking place in a compact time frame. But even with that understanding, two of the biggest players in crypto recently posted gains that were, in fact, too good to be true.
Both Coinbase Global Inc. (COIN) and CoinMarketCap.com briefly posted wild, literally unbelievable gains for a brief period on Tuesday.
CoinMarketCap.com is a data provider owned by Binance, a crypto exchange. Neither company has released details about the cause or nature of the glitch.
One user took to Twitter to jokingly boast of a $22,084,620.48 increase in Ripple, a cryptocurrency and digital payment network, while another user noted that the crypto parody Dogecoin was now worth in excess of $2 million.
CoinMarketCap.com issued a statement that the issue has since been resolved, according to Bloomberg, and tried to lighten the mood by joking on Twitter about striking it rich.
TheStreet Recommends: Here's Why Gold and Crypto Should Be In Your Portfolio Now
Coinbase also Tweeted that everything was back to normal.
In a statement, CoinMarketCap.com dispelled online rumors that the site had been hacked, stating “We haven’t found any evidence yet to suggest that today’s glitch was caused by an external party.”
The cryptocurrency world has long been plagued by technical glitches, particularly during periods of high trading activity.
While some investors gravitate towards cryptocurrencies because they are decentralized and anonymous, those features can also make it difficult for platforms to detect and revolve glitches, hacks and other issues.
Just last week, Coinbase users began an online campaign to demand a refund after a technical glitch relating to GYEN (GYEN) , a cryptocurrency tied to the value of the Yen. That led the company to freeze accounts for weeks, thus preventing them from selling off assets that were losing value.

A local business that began as a section within clothing retailer Posh on Commerce circa 2017 is now housed in the owner’s own recently expanded brick-and-mortar site.
The Niche home goods store opened on Commerce Avenue in 2018 and expanded by 500 square feet in the fall to make room for baby clothes under the Kait & Stella boutique name and specialty homewares like handcrafted Bisou tea and earthy sage vetiver lotion blends. .
Owner Kaitlyn Senn said she got into retail about five years ago when she started buying baby clothes for sale at Posh on Commerce under the boutique name Kait & Stella – a nod to herself and her then infant niece. She opened her own store in Posh on Commerce’s former location at 1314 Commerce Ave. with the help of owner Michelle Philbrook as a mentor, she said.
“She was a great role model,” Senn said. “She helped me do all of this.”
Now, home goods and baby clothes are available in one store.

“It’s nice to have a business under one roof,” Senn said, adding that customers still venture to Posh to find the Kait & Stella collection and are welcome to take to the streets.
Senn studied hospitality at Central Washington University, then worked in child care in Bellevue until she moved back to Longview.
In November, Senn said she added 500 square feet to her now total space of 1,400 square feet because business was up and she could now house more household items like houseplants. interior, tasseled Mud Pie pillows and floral cling film dispensers for hiding store-bought containers.
The Longview native said she chooses items that resonate with her and sticks to brands that work, whether it’s Milkbarn for organic children’s clothing or SlumberKins for stuffed animals and books for young learners in a Vancouver-based company.
Senn aims to find trendy items you won’t find on the shelves of major chain stores, like Itzy Ritzy leopard-print diaper bags and stroller organizers on shelves Friday.
Niche started out as a home goods store, but Senn said customers gravitate to the store for specialty gifts they can’t find at other local retailers. Senn said downtown events like Shop Small Saturday help draw foot traffic and she sees about 15 customers a week. She said she would likely increase hours in the fall in preparation for Niche’s busy holiday season.
Senn said she’s been happy to see businesses fill Commerce Avenue since it opened in 2018. A city report that year said that of the 158 licensed businesses on Commerce Avenue between Vandercook Way and Florida Street, near 54% of these businesses opened between 2013 and 2018.
Senn said customers support local businesses.
“If you have a good product, the community will support you,” she said.

Talk about big players making big changes; CVS Health’s SVP of CSR and Philanthropy, Eileen Howard Boone; BASF’s Sustainability Manager, Denise Peterson; and Panera Bread’s Director of Public Relations, Jonathan Yohannan had a lot to share on their remarkable pivots this past year.
Tim Greiner, Managing Director of Pure Strategies, moderated and set the stage for this discussion by sharing some of his company’s findings from a recent survey of 100 companies. They wanted to know what drives product sustainability leaders. Pure Strategies learned the following:
Boone then recapped CVS Health’s — formerly CVS Caremark — decision to eliminate tobacco from all stores. “Our pivot begins and ends with our purpose,” Boone said. “Helping people on their path to better health.” Boone reinforced Greiner’s research in adding that stakeholders were the most important ingredients in really “making the messaging sing.”
Greiner added that after CVS’ announcement, his family became regular pharmaceutical customers. Boone acknowledged this as a wider trend and that the pivot has led to more personal connections with consumers, as almost everyone has had negative encounters with the effects of tobacco.
Yohannan followed by discussing Panera Bread’s decision to eliminate all artificial additives, colors and sweeteners in their food by 2016.
“We believe consumers should know what’s in their food and where it comes from,” Yohannan said. “We want to use ingredients that you can find your home pantry.”
Publishing their “No No List” was a big risk, he added, but they relied on science from EWG, NRDC and the Union of Concerned Scientists to examine their recipes and make changes. A short video showed Panera customers in L.A. trying to pronounce some of the five-syllable ingredients on the list, reemphasizing the importance of customer engagement. Yohannan also pointed out that engaging their 80,000 associates was equally critical: “If they don’t get it, then it’s just a marketing campaign.”
“There are a lot of other brands out there leading the way on transparency and disclosure and hopefully we can be followers,” Yohannan said. “We’re still trying to learn more about palm oil, more about packaging — there are a lot of issues tied up with food.”
Finally, Peterson spoke on BASF’s pivot to “Making Chemistry” rather than just chemicals. “Chemistry is the lab, it’s the creation process, it’s the chemistry that we build with our customers, our employees and our communities — these are the drivers,” said Peterson.
Peterson discussed the challenges of being handed “lofty, aspirational goals” from the top and figuring out how to execute them. The process took over three years as the company assessed over 60,000 products and their uses. Peterson’s division, the $6 billion Care Chemicals division that makes the chemical components in shampoo and diapers, was the first to pilot the assessment. The process involved three tiers of examination:
The company also had the process third-party certified and audited so BASF could feel comfortable talking about its findings openly.
As a global company, BASF had some challenges in tailoring its approach to different needs in different regions. For example, in some regions GMOs are popular and seen as innovation drivers, where other regions refuse to touch them. BASF’s solution was to take a holistic approach, which Peterson considers very robust: “If your approach is flexible and holistic in nature, you can adjust your approach based on the market. We’re responding to a quickly changing market.”

FBRA urges consumers to imbibe culture of proper waste disposal
Published On: November 26, 20181.5 min read305 words
The Food and Beverage Recycling Alliance (FBRA), has urged consumers to imbibe the culture of proper disposal of used post-consumer packaging waste with special focus on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles to avoid environmental pollution.
Bearing in mind that the World Clean-up Day is drawing closer, FBRA, which is the Producer Responsibility Organisation (PRO) of companies in the food and beverage sector, explained that a healthy lifestyle that embraces waste management, is necessary for the ecosystem to get rid of diseases associated with unhealthy environment.
The Alliance will on September 14 along with its collection partner RecyclePoints, which is the eve of the World Clean-up Day, will engage in cleaning exercise and educate members of the public on waste separation and management at the Arena Market in Oshodi, Lagos.
The exercise will involve volunteer staff from its member companies which include Nigerian Bottling Company Limited, The Coca-Cola Company Nigeria, Nigerian Breweries Plc, Seven-Up Bottling Company Limited and Nestle Nigeria Plc.
They will be involved in cleaning of refuse sites within the market, as well as drainages filled with debris from packaging waste bottles. As part of the initiative, traders and people in the market will be enlightened on issues relating to proper disposal and recycling, healthy lifestyle and measures aimed at curbing environmental pollution.
FBRA was founded in 2013 as a self-regulatory initiative to aid the collection and recycling of post-consumer packaging of the food and beverage sector.
FBRA ensures the success of the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) policy of the Federal Government.
The policy is aimed at ensuring that companies take responsibility for the entire life cycle of their products. Through its advocacy, the Alliance has been emphasising the need for sectoral action under a PRO to ensure that companies collectively engage in the recovery and recycling of their packaging wastes for a cleaner and healthier environment.

Google Alphabet Inc. said on Monday it had eliminated search advertisements that paid users to check for voting information at high rates for registering voters or collected their personal data.
A Google spokeswoman said the company’s misrepresentation policy prohibited these advertisements that the non-profit watchdog Tech Transparency Project noticed while searching for words like “register to vote,” “vote by phone,” and “where my polling place is.”
In a report on Monday, Tech Transparency Project said that nearly a third of the more than 600 ads generated by its Google searches have taken users to sites that try to charge large fees for voter registration services, extract personal data for marketing purposes, install deceptive browser extensions or serve other misleading ads.
The study said that the first ad in a Google search for “register to vote” led users to a PrivacyWall site that paid $129 for voter registration’s “same-day processing.” U.S. voters do not have to pay to register for voting.
A Google spokeswoman said the company didn’t know how the advertisements got through its approval process, which uses an automated and manual review mix.
We have stringent policies in place to protect users from misinformation about voting procedures and when we find advertisements that breach our policies and threaten users, we delete them and prohibit advertisers from running similar advertising in the future,” the spokeswoman said.
“Many people will find it hard to differentiate Google ads from other advertising types because as of January, Google’s search ads display the same style face and color scheme as organic search results,” the TTP report said.
During the run-up to the US presidential election in November, social media firms and web outlets, including Facebook Inc and Twitter are under pressure to counter disinformation on their pages.

Alsea, the Mexican company that represents and operates the Starbucks brand in Mexico and Latin America, plans a pilot test to sell beer in the coffee shops of the brand. The pilot test will be performed to see the reaction of people who consume in these establishments.
In the United States wine and beer are already sold at some stores, so Alsea has planned to introduce these products in Starbucks Mexico.
Although this strategy is still being analyzed, it is an alternative that, according to Federico Tejado, CEO of Alsea, could work as long as the pilot shows good results.
The introduction of this product will depend on the response of the consumers in the test to be performed, because if the consumer sees it as something relevant that can represent an relaxed experience for your evenings and nights, because it will be a quiet place you can attend instead of going to a bar, this could be a feasible idea.
Starbucks plans to open 60 new stores during 2016, focusing primarily on shopping centers.
Meanwhile Alsea will continue to expand its portfolio of brands in Mexico, starting with the recent acquisition of Vip’s and El Porton restaurants.

Activision have brought back two high profile PlayStation mascots over the last few years, with Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon making returns after extended absences. Both of those saw great success, even prompting Activision to bring back even more Crash fun this year. It seems that might not be the only thing coming from the old guard, as Spyro’s return may be coming to PC soon as well.
Spyro Reignited Trilogy released at the end of last year, a remastering (though more like full remakes on a technical level) of the original three PlayStation titles for the PS4 and Xbox One. It notably lacked a PC and Switch version, but now one of those may be remedied. A Taiwan ratings board has rated the game for the PC. It even includes the full boxart showing Iron Galaxy as the developer, who also worked on the Crash trilogy PC port. File it under rumors for now, due to the nature of these leaks not always being reliable, but since the Crash N. Sane Trilogy eventually made it everywhere, it’s very likely this will too.
Spyro Reignited Trilogy is available now for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Here are some things going on today:
Apple‘s (AAPL) online store was down overnight for a new product unveil, which turns out to be somewhat less than some might have expected. A new iPad was unveiled, very similar to the old iPad Air, with a brighter screen, and at a lower price, starting at $329. There’s also an iPhone now available in the color red, the company’s charitable effort. Apple also announced a program for iPhone called “Clips,” for sending videos, which seems like an attempt at Snap’s (SNAP) Snapchat.
There was some grumbling amongst the audience on Macrumors about the underwhelming offerings. It’s possible a press event in April will reveal more stuff, as some have speculated.
Speaking of Apple, Bernstein’s Toni Sacconaghi raised his price target on Apple to $160 from $140, writing that Apple shares have tended to outperform two to six months before a new iPhone model is introduced, which means, presumably, this September, when most expect and “iPhone 8” or “iPhone X.”
Apple shares are up 70 cents, or half a percent, at 142.16, in pre-market trading.
More musing today on the prospect of “peak” Micron Technology (MU) in advance of its earnings report on Thursday afternoon. Mehdi Hosseini of Susquehanna reiterates a “Positive” rating on the stock, and says with the company’s profit possibly peaking the second half of this year, managing down costs of manufacturing seem key.
Hosseini acknowledges “consensus is now focused on whether history repeats itself.” meaning the fall of Micron stock at the end of 2014.
“In this context, and since MU’s past execution is viewed as a mixed bag, we argue that continued execution on the cost curve could not only drive higher peak earnings, but could also meaningfully benefit investor perception.”
See also yesterday’s view by Romit Shah of Instinet.
Micron shares are up 14 cents, or half a percent, at $26.35.
Analysts are upbeat about Ciena’s (CIEN) announcement yesterday that it will license the designs for some of its networking chips to other companies. Wells Fargo‘s Jess Lubert reiterates an Overweight rating, writing that the effort is “likely to open several large opportunities that complement the company’s existing business,” and also “should prove accretive to the company’s gross and operating margins.”
Ciena shares are up 9 cents at $23.83.
Shares of security networker FireEye (FEYE), are up 13 cents, or 1%, at $11.74, after Merrill Lynch’s Tal Liani raised the stock to a Buy, and raised his price target to $18, citing prospects for “significant upside potential,” from things such as its new head of sales, according to a summary provide by TheFlyontheWall.
Shares of Internet of Things technology vendor Impinj (PI) are up 25 cents, or 0.9%, at $29.05 after Morgan Stanley’s Craig Hettenbach issued a bullish note this morning, reiterating his Overweight rating and his $40 price target, and arguing recent “weakness” in the stock is a buying opportunity.

German retailer Aldi’s plans for a supermarket off Horspath Driftway in Oxford have been approved by council bosses.
The store, which will see the conversion of a Currys store on the site just off the eastern bypass, will create up to 50 jobs.
It will the company’s second store in the city after its supermarket in Botley Road was opened in 2009.
Oxford City Council approved the plans on February 26 after an application was submitted in December. The Horspath Driftway site is also home to a Homebase store.
Pat Kennedy, city councillor for Lye Valley, said: “Residents in my ward are excited about the idea of having a new Aldi on that site.
“There are, of course, concerns with traffic congestion there as it will be just off the A40 Eastern-Bypass with the store just off a very busy junction.”
Lye Valley residents’ current closest supermarkets are Sainsbury’s store at Temple Cowley, Sainsbury’s superstore off Heyford Hill roundabout and Tesco at Oxford Retail Park.
Cllr Kennedy was pleased the new store would offer residents more choice, saying: “It opens up another opportunity for people in the area as there will be a budget store within walking distance for a lot of them.”
She said residents had spoken in favour of the company’s stores and had received leaflets in the post advertising jobs at the new store.
An Aldi spokesperson said: “We are looking forward to opening our new Oxford store.
“Now that planning consent has been granted, we are finalising plans to start work and hope to be open as soon as possible, creating new jobs and making it easy for local residents to shop and save closer to home. We encourage local people to apply.”

The response to Sony’s big PlayStation 4 coming out party has been generally positive on this website, but industry analyst Eric Handler has suggested that the reception was more “mixed” in mainstream circles. Speaking with NowGamer, the MKM Partners employee insinuated that the manufacturer failed to show enough exclusive content to give it an advantage in the next generation console war.
“I think Sony has created some excitement in that it beat Microsoft to the market with news about a new console for this holiday season,” he said. “The reaction has been somewhat mixed and we are still lacking a lot of key information.”
Handler pointed to the price and software as key missing details. “Last cycle Sony really hurt itself with its $599 US launch price,” he continued. “Even though it had the most powerful system, consumers weren't interested at that price point, especially considering the system lacked sufficient exclusive titles to win back market share from Microsoft.”
He concluded: “I didn't think the Sony press conference showed enough exclusives to give themselves that big of a leg up at this point in time.”
During its event, the platform holder announced Killzone: Shadow Fall, DriveClub, inFamous: Second Son, and Knack as exclusive titles for the PS4. It also revealed partnerships with Jonathan Blow on The Witness and Activision on Destiny. That was in addition to the confirmation that every major Sony-owned studio is currently working on titles for the next generation machine.
Do you agree with Handler that the manufacturer failed to show a decent offering of exclusive content for its upcoming console? Let us know in the comments section below.

LONDON (Reuters) – British manufacturing activity expanded in May at the weakest rate since January 2021, as producers of consumer goods struggled against a worsening cost-of-living crunch, a survey showed on Wednesday.
The final estimate of the S&P Global (NYSE:) UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) fell to 54.6 in May from 55.8 in April, unchanged from a preliminary “flash” reading.
“Growth in the UK manufacturing sector eased during May, as rates of expansion in output, new orders and employment all decelerated,” S&P Global, which produces the PMI, said.
Costs paid by manufacturers and selling prices again rose rapidly last month, but at a slightly slower pace than first suggested by the flash reading.
A separate report from the Institute of Directors showed confidence in the economy among business leaders slid last month to its lowest since October 2020. Inflation – which hit a 40-year high of 9% in April – was their top concern.
Another survey of businesses from the Confederation of British Industry showed they expect barely any growth over the next three months.
Manufacturing exports, a weak point in Britain’s recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, continued to struggle, the PMI showed.
New orders from abroad contracted in May at the fastest rate since June 2020. Respondents cited Brexit problems, transport delays and the war in Ukraine.
Unlike the much larger services sector, manufacturing output has yet to regain its pre-pandemic level and remained 1.0% below it in March, according to official data.

Netflix, the online video streaming service that has revolutionized the entertainment industry in Western countries, has finally launched in India. The popular streaming service, in a global expansion move, has now been rolled out in 129 more countries. The one noticeable omission from Netflix’s big global rollout is of course China.
In India, Netflix has already gone live with subscription rates starting Rs 500 per month and going all the way up to Rs 800 per month for a premium service with access to Ultra HD content.
Netflix is the world’s top video streaming service that allows users to watch content on screens ranging from a smartphones to a smart television. It works with a variety of other devices like iPhone, iPad, Android smartphone or tablet, Windows phones and tablets, Microsoft Xbox consoles, Sony PlayStation and Apple TV box, on the web browser on a PC, Smart TV platforms, letting users stream directly onto larger screen. Netflix is also the creator of a lot of original, made for the web content, much of which is now in high-resolution Ultra HD.
While the arrival created the expected excitement, it is slowly subsiding as users questioning, ‘Will Indians with slow Internet speeds and small data caps (also known as ‘fair usage policy’ limits) be able to use Netflix?’
Without fast Internet, the buffering may take ages. People with slow internet will find it difficult to use Netflix heavily. Watching a handful of movies and TV shows could eat up a little over half of a user’s data cap, make them quickly hit their FUP limit, and have their Internet speeds reduced to a piddly 512 Kbps.

Turkey meat is grounds for concern.
Original post and previous updates after the jump.
Federal officials said the evidence found so far pointed to a single ground turkey factory, but they declined to identify it or the company involved.
However, the meat processor Cargill said that it had been contacted by the Agriculture Department and asked to provide information as part of the salmonella investigation.
The Times also reports that this strain of salmonella is resistant to antibiotics.
Make sure you cook your turkey burgers till they're well-done: The USDA has issued a public-health alert
after a salmonella outbreak in ground turkey
that has sickened at least 77 persons across 26 states, reports USA Today
So far neither USDA nor CDC have been able to determine the producer of the ground turkey that has been causing the illnesses, but the investigation continues.
The USDA advises you to cook and/or reheat ground turkey to 165 degrees. Gut Check advises you to opt for a light meal of, say, bread and fresh fruit instead of a turkey burger. It's too hot today to eat meat.

Vladimir Putin’s decision for a one year extension to the embargo on food products in response to the extension of sanctions towards Russia halves exports of Italian food products. This is what emerges from a Coldiretti study of the effects for made in Italy due to Russia’s decision to extend the embargo taken on August 6, 2014 for beef, pork and poultry, fruit and vegetables, milk and cheeses from EU countries, the US and from Australia, Canada and Norway, which was due to last a year. It is not clear if the list of prohibited products will be extended to other products such as canned fish, dairy products derived from vegetable fats, flowers and confectionery, as suggested by rumours from local authorities.
Italy’s food exports have virtually been halved (-51.1%) in the first quarter of 2015 but they are completely non-existent for fruit and vegetables, cheese and meat and meat products. The impossibility to export to the Russian market for many food products has caused a situation of oversupply on the European market with negative repercussions on prices paid to producers. The greatest damage, which is likely to last for years, is determined, however, by the stop to imports resulting in a boom of local Russian production of copycat made in Italy products, including salami, Russian produced cheese that in the first the four months of 2015 have marked a surprising 30 percent increase and also covers imitation mozzarella, robiola and parmesan. Confirmation comes from the Russian Pavilion at the Expo where at the end of the hall there is an area dedicated to Tatarstan which displays cheeses, many of which recall Italy for example with the Prego ‘Italian Style’ brand with the wording ‘Original Italian Recipe’ and products with the Italian flags with the words ‘Solo formaggio’. But the imitation products – continues Coldiretti – arrive in Russia from many countries that have not been affected by the embargo such as Switzerland, Belarus, Argentina or Brazil. On top of the damage caused by blocking certain products, however, we must add also the loss related to other products not affected by the embargo, even outside the food business – concluded Coldiretti – that have been affected by political tensions resulting in a declining trade.
