What: Cabaret Voltaire Presents the The First Annual H.O.P.E. Awards, Hosted by Neil Hamburger.

The non-profit H.O.P.E. (Horrified Observers of Pedestrian Entertainment) began their campaign to wake up Americans by planning a heroic protest against Paris Hilton's book(Confessions of an Heiress)at Book Soup West Hollywood in Early September. The protest garnered news across the globe. H.O.P.E.'s second campaign, the Ashlee Simpson CD trade-in, afforded Simpson CD buyers the opportunity to swap their piece of dreg for one they consider of a "higher entertainment quality." The options listed on the organization's website include Aretha Franklin, Elvis Costello CD's (courtesy of Rhino Records) The trade-in news was picked up by the AP wire and before you could finish saying rumble fish, H.O.P.E.'s website had 5 million hits and organizer Chris Jackson was deluged with interview requests from Philly to Australia (this is not a joke) It wasn't long before Simpson's agency and the record label had a shit fit and the trade-in was shut down. H.O.P.E.'s next campaign is a closely held secret, but organizer Jackson is in talks with two very prominent politicians to see if H.O.P.E. can assist in the future of media reform.

Sanuvox UV Purification Systems’ Ability to Destroy Avian Flu (Bird Flu) and Avian Influenza A (H5N1)

Sanuvox Technologies Inc. has been receiving many inquiries regarding the use of Sanuvox Ultraviolet Air Purification Systems on the Avian Flu. Sanuvox UV systems can be used as a prevention tool to limit the spread of Influenza in working and public environments.

According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) there are many different subtypes of type A influenza viruses. When we talk about “bird flu” viruses, we are referring to influenza A subtypes chiefly found in birds. They do not usually infect humans, even though we know they can. When we talk about “human flu viruses” we are referring to those subtypes that occur widely in humans. It is likely that some genetic parts of current human influenza A viruses came from birds originally. Influenza A viruses are constantly changing, and they might adapt over time to infect and spread among humans. For more information on Avian Influenza please visit the CDC at http://www.cdc.gov/flu/avian/gen-info/facts.htm... (Continue reading)

There are, indeed, many reputable companies that employ mystery shoppers, and those opportunities are usually posted online by marketing research or merchandising companies.... (Continue reading)
