Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Companies are coming clean about claims their products promote healthy lifestyles
Last week, Dr. Mehmet Oz faced tough questions from American lawmakers during a hearing on deceptive advertising and weight-loss scams.
The celebrity host of TV's popular The Dr. Oz Show -- and Harvard-educated heart surgeon -- admitted during questioning that many of the products he promotes on his show "don't have the scientific muster to pass as fact" even if he "believes in" and uses them.
While Oz's show focuses on healthy eating and exercise basics, U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, who chairs a consumer protection committee, accused Oz of playing a role in deceptive advertising.
"When you feature a product on your show, it creates what has become known as the 'Dr. Oz effect' -- dramatically boosting sales and driving scam artists to pop up overnight using false and deceptive ads to sell questionable products," McCaskill said. "...I am concerned that you are melding medical advice, news and entertainment in a way that harms consumers," she said.
Even without turning the channel to Dr. Oz, we're bombarded with messages about the next miracle product promising to make you thin and healthy.
The U.S. government is taking issue with such claims.
Here are some of the latest crackdowns on deceptive advertising:
Activia (Danone)
The marketing: Canadians probably best know Activia for its commercials featuring actress Jamie Lee Curtis and another one with a dancing stomach -- both implying Danone's proprietary strain of probiotic bacteria can aid digestion.
The reality: Probiotics do promote good health, according to numerous studies that have found the gut benefits from the so-called good bacteria in yogurt. There is also some evidence probiotics can boost immune response. However, just about every yogurt contains probiotics (live or active bacterial cultures). So does any fermented food -- including kefir and kimchee.
The consequences: The American arm of Danone settled a class-action lawsuit in 2009. That included paying more than $21 million for exaggerating the science behind the claims that some of their yogurts could aid digestion and prevent colds. Shortly after, a Montreal woman won a class-action lawsuit over the same advertising issues. In 2012, the European Food Safety Authority effectively banned the use of the term probiotics on food labels in Europe.
Kashi (Kellogg)
The marketing: Kashi commercials tout the "all natural" goodness of Kashi products, a division of Kellogg that produces granola bars and cereal. The most memorable spot features a Kashi product developer in the fields of an exotic land where elephants roam. There, she sniffs vanilla beans, examines nutmeg and works with the locals to scrape cinnamon bark off trees. Her job, she says, is to "take the best natural flavours and put them together in tasty ways."
The reality: Kashi products contain a variety of synthetic additives, including such things as calcium pantothenate and hexane-processed soy ingredients. (Also, it should be mentioned that adding real vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon flavouring to products doesn't make them healthy. They still contain excess sugar and refined carbohydrates that fuel disease.)
The consequences: Just last month, Kellogg announced it would no longer use the terms "all natural" and "nothing artificial" on its Kashi products. The move stems from a class-action settlement in which the company will pay out $5 million for allegedly misleading people with its claims on some of its Kashi-labelled products.
Shape-Ups (Skechers)
The marketing: Reality-television star Kim Kardashian endorsed these unconventional fitness shoes with unstable soles designed to mimic a balance ball. The company went so far as to promise their brand of toning shoes would help wearers lose weight as well as strengthen their buttocks, legs and abdominal muscles. The implied result of walking around in Shape-Ups? Wearers would morph into the voluptuous, yet firm, Kardashian.
The reality: Losing weight while firming muscles only happens with a lifestyle of exercise and healthy eating, not by wearing a pair of unstable shoes with rocker soles. They can even cause problems. (Some toning shoes encourage lateral rather than a back-and-forth motion, which can lead to ankle swelling and sprains, say podiatrists).
The consequences: In 2013, a federal U.S. judge ordered the company to pay $40 million to people who bought its toning shoes. A description of Shape-Ups on the Skechers website notes that "decreases in weight or body fat and increases in muscle strength or toning have not been clinically shown."
Nutella (Ferraro)
The marketing: Television ads depicted Nutella -- a sweet chocolate spread -- as part of a healthy breakfast for kids that contains real milk and hazelnuts in every jar.
The reality: Giving Nutella to your kids for breakfast is like giving them a melted chocolate bar. Two tablespoons of Nutella contains about 200 calories, 21 grams of sugar and 3.5 grams of saturated fat. A Snickers bar contains 250 calories, 27 grams of sugar and 4.5 grams of saturated fat.
The consequences: In 2012, Ferraro settled two class-action lawsuits on deceptive advertising with a $3-million payout. The company has promised to change its misleading advertising and packaging.

Kosher Bites at the Beach
|Chabad of the Beach Cities in California has expanded to include a mikvah ritual bath, a synagogue where hundreds pray regularly, a preschool with an enrollment of over 140 and many other services for a growing Jewish community.
When Rabbi Yossi and Shterna Mintz opened their fledgling Chabad center in Redondo Beach, Calif., people told them it was a lost cause, saying that no Jews lived there. Seventeen years later, with a new kosher restaurant under construction and Hebrew day school on the horizon, the community has grown and developed beyond their wildest imagination.
The restaurant, slated to open in July, is the brainchild of two brothers, Abe and Levi Chayo.
"My brother lives in Redondo Beach and works in Torrance," a nearby business district, says Levi Chayo. "I was living in New York at the time, and he told me that there are many Jewish people in his area who keep kosher, and they could really use a kosher restaurant. I decided to go for it."
But the 21-year-old had no experience in the business and knew he would need to beef up his hospitality know-how before opening up his own place. After working in a number of Brooklyn restaurants for several months, he felt ready to take the plunge.
So Chayo flew to Torrance and started planning. "Even though there are a fair number of kosher businesspeople and families in the area, we are working on making food so memorable that we will be able to compete with the non-kosher restaurants as well. We plan on baking all of our own bread and pizza dough in-house, and will be importing exclusive chalav Yisrael cheeses from the East Coast," he said, referring to dairy products produced under the constant eye of a religious supervisor to ensure that kosher standards have been maintained throughout the production process.
The restaurant, to be named Chayo Eatery, will offer dairy and vegetarian dishes.
Shmuli Pinson, CTO at a nearby high-tech firm, says "it will be nice to have a kosher place to go for lunch meetings or even just to grab a quick bite during the work day."
Mintz, who co-directs Chabad of the Beach Cities (Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach),explains that although the restaurant is a private venture, it dovetails with Chabad's mandate to encourage more Torah awareness and observance.
Keeping kosher is a crucial step
At a public gathering in the summer of 1975, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, urged those present to encourage and facilitate observance of the kosher dietary laws, as part of his 10-point mitzvah campaign. The Rebbe explained that keeping kosher a crucial step toward living a Torah lifestyle; whatever a person eats has an effect on his or her thoughts, emotions and outlook, he said. At that time, the Rebbe offered to pay half of the expenses incurred during the koshering process, whereby a kitchen is purged from any unkosher traces and dedicated for exclusive kosher use.
Mintz says having a restaurant to recommend will make it much easier for him to guide people to kosher observance: "I can now tell people that if you can have a kosher lunch delivered, why would you eat unkosher?"
Chip Herwegh echoes that point. "Until now, there really were no options other than preparing and eating everything at home," he says. "We have been talking about this for years. Having a kosher restaurant right here is going to make it much simpler for me to go kosher. This is a very important step in community-building."
A native of Manhattan Beach, Calif., Herwegh first became acquainted with the Chabad center when he married a Jewish woman. As the family became more involved in Judaism and their three children enrolled in the Chabad Hebrew school, Herwegh underwent conversion. He chose the Hebrew name Gavriel Noach, after Rabbi Gabi Holtzberg, director of the Chabad house in Mumbai, India, who was murdered in the November 2008 terror attacks there, along with his wife, Rivkah, and four guests.
"Gabi was out there spreading light, and I hope to be able to do a little bit of that as well," says Herwegh, one of the principal organizers and funders of the restaurant.
Mintz sees the new establishment as a real milestone.
"Over the years, our community center in Redondo Beach has expanded to include three rabbis and 56 other employees," he explains. "Our center offers a mikveh ritual bath, a synagogue where hundreds pray regularly, a preschool with an enrollment of over 140. Our satellite center in Manhattan Beach has a Judaica store and a full array of Chabad activities from Torah classes to clubs for seniors and toddlers.
"Yet having a kosher restaurant in Torrance is something that we could have never imagined."
Levi Gelb, an entrepreneur-writer who grew up in the area, says: "When I was young, we had a little congregation in a storefront, and we would drive to L.A. to have anything Jewish. The fact that our community can support a kosher eatery tells me that the area has really come a long way. There are a lot of young families, and people are moving in. It is becoming a real community."

Gabriel Zaliasnik, Jewish community Chile 311.
(photo credit:Courtesy)
Gabriel Zaliasnik, president of the Jewish community in Chile, thinks Israel's Foreign Ministry is making a big mistake.Having spent the last few weeks battling local pro-Palestinian groups in an effort to influence his government not to recognize Palestinian statehood, Zaliasnik believes the statement that eventually emerged from Santiago last Friday accepting Palestinian independence while acknowledging Israel's right to security was not the diplomatic debacle some made it out to be, but in fact was a victory of sorts.RELATED:More nations will recognize Palestinian state, PA saysChile announces recognition of Palestinian statehood"I think the Israeli foreign minister is making a mistake in considering the statement a defeat," he said in a telephone interview on Tuesday."What you should be concerned with is the content of the recognition, which acknowledges Israel and doesn't mention borders. I wouldn't get excessively over-concerned because it recognized a Palestinian state."Zaliasnik, 43, is the youngest-ever leader of Chile's 25,000-strong Jewish community "by far," he said.A lawyer by profession, he made a name for himself representing several high-profile clients, including former Argentinean president Carlos Menem."Someone told me that to make the case you have to be a good criminal lawyer," he joked. "It's a very hard case."The son of a Chilean mother and Argentinean father whose parents emigrated to South America from Europe, he was a member of the Beitar youth movement, but he assumed a leadership role in the Jewish community only during the Second Lebanon War in 2006."For many years I dedicated myself only to my profession, but after the Second Lebanon War the media was so hateful and our leadership performing so badly I came out and was offered to become president," he recalled.

A very beautiful place that can be reached with a non 4x4 car even if the road is a little bit chaotic and hard to find.
In September, we saw only a few tourists around and has a wonderful beach for ourselves. Unfortunately no turtle at this time of the year.
Prefer the beach at the end of the peninsula were we found absolutely nobody. If you are willing to watch the sunset there, put some mosquito repellent!

I just got a drinking merit badge from a slutty girl scout
U just looked at me and said "wake me up when I'm done eating"
so it turns out, not only do the doormen judge the girls I bring home, but they rate them.
Is there a card that says "Sorry I got drunk at your Christmas party and tried to steal your monogrammed hand towels so that I could give you something nice for Christmas"?
The mass text at 3:12AM offering "free scrotum tastings" will have repercussions
I am actually insulted by the long string of ugly, fat girls he hooked up with after me.
I opened up my wallet and it was filled with puke.
So we just left her at the hospital. She is not ruining my Monday night
He just whispered "doors are weird" and then laughed so hard he fell down the stairs.
She's been drunk for three days now
She's been covered in glitter for the last two and somehow she found a monkey
multiple people will be seeing my nips tonight. not mad about it at all
holy shit the woman im hooking up with is closer to my moms age than my own
Dude... I had a dream that I was getting high for the first time. I got to experience my weedginity again. It was glorious.

Snapple Very Cherry Iced Tea reminds us of the old days of Snapple Tea. What do we mean? Well, it's light on tea flavor and very sweet. Don't get us wrong, the combination of the black tea flavors and the cherry flavor combines relatively well, creating a product that is refreshing when you're looking for this type of product. Definitely doesn't compare in quality to high-end herbal teas, but that's definitely not what was intended anyway. Overall, a product that kids and younger consumers are sure to enjoy -- and worth a try if you are ever feeling nostalgic for the old days of Snapple Iced Tea.

The N-Dubz singer sparked mocking online comments and was branded 'duckface' after she was snapped arriving for court appearances last month with swollen lips.
Now she has confessed she has undergone a procedure to fill out her lips and cheeks and she was left with a puffy face after suffering water retention.
Contostavlos tells The Guardian: "Yes, I've had my lips done, and I'm happy with my lips. And I also had a tiny bit of filler in my cheeks.
"Pictures of me where my face was swelling, I had water retention - where you have filler your face draws up a load of water. So my face began to swell like a balloon. And this is when people said I'd had surgery and said, what's she done? She's ruined her face.
"It was a choice I made... It really bugs me when people say I've had a nose job. That's just makeup. Can you see the shading there? So losing a stone, filler in my cheeks, my lips done and the contouring - and people do think, oh gosh, you look so different. But I'm happy with it."
Contostavlos made several appearances at London courts last month - she was cleared of brokering a cocaine deal in a tabloid sting but was convicted of assaulting a blogger at a music festival.

Undersea Panoramas Now on Google Street View
Related Articles
More from Tech
Google Street View, the interactive panorama feature within Google Maps, has shared eye-level images of Antarctica, gone inside NASA's Kennedy Space Center, floated down rivers in the Amazon and strolled the halls of famous museums.
Now the company is going underwater. The company on Wednesday added panoramic undersea images of the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, the waters off the Apo Islands in the Philippines and underwater life around the Hawaiian islands.
The stunning photos capture fish, plants, turtles and other marine critters going about their business in faraway oceans. Now anyone can get an immersive view of the seas without getting wet or worrying about the bends. Zoom in to check out a manta ray's belly, join a school of fish or study intricate coral up close.
The photos are part of a partnership with the Catlin Seaview Survey, an ambitious project focused on documenting the world's reefs using high-resolution 360-degree images. Catlin is working to create a thorough archive off the world's reefs that scientists can use to study the effects of climate change. By documenting reefs with photographs, it will be possible to determine the impact increased water temperatures and acidity will have on the areas over time.
"If you want to reach millions of people worldwide, the first place you knock on the door is Google," said Richard Vevers, project director of the Catlin Seaview Survey.
The partnership with Google (which also involved a live Google Hangout with a diver and a sea turtle earlier this year), is an attempt to get people invested in the fate of these ecosystems and the role the oceans play in sustaining the planet. For the 99% of people who have never been diving, a panoramic photo is a vivid introduction.
"It's about introducing to the wide number of people on this planet the impact we're having on these coral reefs," said Vevers. "Until we make coral reefs and the important ecosystem in the ocean relevant to people on the planet, we're not going to get action."
Google has used cars, trikes, snowmobiles and people outfitted with custom cameras to capture 360-degree images around the world. For this project, the images were taken by a camera custom-designed for the Catlin Seaview Survey, the SVII, whose design was inspired by sharks. The rapid-fire camera can be controlled by a tablet in watertight housing, and it records GPS data as well as the exact angle at which the photo was taken.
To capture images at greater depths, between 30 and 100 meters (about 98 to 328 feet), the group plans to send down special remotely operated vehicles outfitted with remote-controlled digital single-lens reflex cameras. Nearly 90% of the Great Barrier Reef is below 30 meters of water.
So far, the project has taken 15,000 panoramic photos underwater, and each of those is made of three separate shots. They hope to have between 50,000 and 100,000 panoramic photos by the end of next year. Future sites will include Bermuda, the Caribbean, the Indian Ocean and the Coral Triangle, an area where coral reefs retreated to after the last ice age.
Only the most interesting images will be used for Google Maps, but all will be accessible to scientists through the project's main site.
"One of the central concepts of this activity is to bring people on this jouney with scientists," said Ove Hoegh-Guldberg, director of the Global Change Institute at the University of Queensland.
The Street View (perhaps Reef View?) ocean project was first announced in February. Since it launched in 2007, Google Street View has captured 20 petabytes of data in 48 countries. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration estimates that 95% of the ocean is still unexplored.

At BlackBerry Jam Asia, it was announced that BlackBerry App World would be rebranding to simply BlackBerry World. We've been patiently waiting for the change to drop in, and just nine days from the January 30th BlackBerry 10 event, that change has finally hit the web store. In the late hours last night the team at RIM made the swap and now the store has lost its "app" branding. You can still find the latest apps and games (music and movies soon) but things just have bit of a different look now. The change is coming to the BlackBerry PlayBook in a few weeks (OS update anyone?) and to phones shortly after.
looks nice and improved, good display of navigational apps on first page,
however some apps (expensify) do not state if supporting BB10 or not?
Wonder if it lists apps from the last Port-a-thon......
Thor RULES...
RIMPIRE Strikes AGAIN............................
Need to change the url though. Still is appworld.blackberry.com
BlackBerry PlayBook update!?! Would this be to BB10!!!?? Or just a mini PlayBook OS update?
lol. I can't see BB 10 coming to the PlayBook until Spring at the earliest.
I understand why people would feel that...but is it so hard to believe they may launch it alongside or a week or 2 after the Z10 launch? I think it would bode very well for RIM and tablet sales if they announce next Wednesday that the PlayBook would be getting BB10 a week after the phones launch!
The question is if RIM actually updated App World to address both developers skewing ratings and users leaving PIN reviews or if they are just rebranding it.
im not able to see the new Blackberry world. When i try to log in (Chrome or IE) after sign in i get a white screen, and F5 is not helping...
same here .
I will go ahead and confirm this as well. The one thing I hope RIM manages properly is execution and not hype.
WTF ??!! trying to login but it gives me blank page after input my credentials !!! all the time!
i was gonna post this too.
Doesn't work in Chrome (v24) or IE (tried it for good measure).
I get stuck in blank page as well.
Seems RIM needs to polish site a bit more.
I'm in BC. I see nothing different right now.
I aint seeing the change yet either...on Rogers in Toronto 9810/188.8.131.525
Same white screen for me in Chrome, and I can't sign in. I'm UK based
Hopefully Blackberry World is truly available worldwide and not in selective countries. There were ways to install apps on old BBs without the appworld, however, you cant do much without BBWorld on the Playbook. If its the same system on the BB10, getting apps would be an hassle wherever RIM does not launches the BBworld.

Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Sheldon Souray scored the game-winner with 2:08 to play as the Anaheim Ducks took a 2-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks at United Center.
Corey Perry had the other goal for the Ducks, who snapped a four-game losing streak. Jonas Hiller stopped 25 shots in the win.
"That's the way we have to play," said Perry. "I thought we had a great game tonight. We were in on the forecheck, we were playing with the puck."
Patrick Kane had the only goal of the game for the Blackhawks, who have lost three of their last four. Ray Emery gave up both goals on 24 shots to suffer his first loss in 16 games played this season.
"We battled back and tied the game, but those last couple of minutes we gave up a goal on a funny bounce and those things happen," said Emery. "It's one of those things we have to be mindful at the end of the game."
Chicago tied the game at the 2:26 mark of the third on the power play when Kane received a pass from Duncan Keith and skated down to the right circle before rifling a shot into the right corner for his 18th of the year.
Anaheim, though, took the lead later after Souray's huge blast from the left point deflected off the stick of a Hawk and went past Emery.
Chicago got a late power play while Francois Beauchemin was called for slashing and pulled Emery for a 6-on-4, but it came with four seconds left and the team was unable to get a shot off before the clock expired.
After a scoreless first period, the Ducks took a 1-0 lead just 1:15 into the second period when Bobby Ryan chipped the puck ahead to Perry, who skated down the right wing and wristed the puck into the far side for his 11th of the season.

High school softball: Salem Hills picks up 4-0 win over Maple Mountain
Janae Oveson
SPANISH FORK — Thursday was senior night for Maple Mountain's softball team, a hugely memorable moment for the Golden Eagle senior athletes.
When asked what she wanted her seniors to walk away with, Maple Mountain coach Cassie Lewis replied, "I want them to realize they have established a great program and will be leaving behind a legacy that will be around for years to come."
Meanwhile, Maple Mountain's opponent, Salem Hills, was solely focused on getting a big victory.
"This game is a must-win for us," Salem Hills coach Renae Kinghorn said beforehand. "Maple Mountain is a rival school and there is a lot on the line. They are playing really well right now, so this will definitely be some good softball. We are excited to honor their seniors who opened the school for them, but as soon as we cross those lines it's game time."
When that happened, the Skyhawks got the job done.
Salem Hills ultimately came away with 12 hits, which led to four runs. The defense of Maple Mountain kept the Golden Eagles in the game by forcing the Skyhawks to leave 10 batters on base, but Salem Hills had too much defense and Maple Mountain could not figure out the Skyhawks' pitching. After surrendering only a single in the third inning and another in the seventh, Salem Hills prevailed with a 4-0 victory.
The Skyhawks started off the game with a Kenzi Martin double. Three batters later, Salem Hills scored the first run of the game on a single by Kirtlyn Bohilng. Both Martin and Bohling went 3 for 4 on the day. Bohling accounted for three of the four runs with her hitting while adding 13 Ks to the defensive effort.
"It is easier to hit when you have such a good time. Their catcher was excellent," said Martin.
The Skyhawks were successful in getting the lead runner on base in six of the seven innings. Martin, Alex Oveson, Abbie Tuttle, and Simons all led off with hits — Martin and Oveson twice. Oveson went 2 for 4 and designated player Amelia Weight added an RBI in the third inning.
On defense, Tuttle was phenomenal with her Willie Mays-like catch of a BritLee Anderson hit between shortstop and left field in the fourth inning. In the fifth, it looked like MMHS third Baseman Shaniya Jacobson would reach base and start a rally, but it was Tuttle who chased down the hit to shallow center field for the out.
"This is going to make us better, stronger," said Anderson after the tough loss.
Lewis echoed those sentiments and praised her seniors after their final regular-season game.
"This group of seniors is the best group we have had ... and the funniest," Lewis said. "They know how to fight."
Troy Bohling is the coordinator of school services for Nebo School District. He was previously an assistant principal at Salem Hills High School from 2008-12. His daughter Kirtlyn plays for Salem Hills. He can be contacted at email@example.com

SunStar shines brightly on Signal Hill
Kelly LodewyksLast night the SunStar Beacon of Hope was unveiled and lit up on Signal Hill. And it looks pretty spectacular. Designed by Christopher Swift and part of the World Design Capital initiatives, the SunStar was made with pieces of the fencing from Robben Island. Standing 24 metres high, this outdoor art installation will stay on Signal Hill for about six months before it's moved, possibly to one of the properties of Sun International, who funded the piece.

Recognizable for his long white hair, a long white beard, aviator sunglasses and signature large straw cowboy hat, Leon Russell is singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Lawton, OK. Despite his rock and roll appearance, Russell creates tasteful piano rock, in the same vein as Billy Joel or Elton John. Initially getting his start in the 1960s as a studio pianist working with an impressive list of musicians and producers including Phil Spector, The Beach Boys and The Byrds, he managed to evolve as a respectable solo musician in the 1970s by making catchy, instrumentally-adept, country-tinged music. While his notoriety has undoubtedly ebbed since his 1970 self-titled debut album, Russell is still releasing music and playing shows to audiences who aren't keen on the idea of forgetting the musician's time-tested talent.View More >

Give more autonomy to individual business units, don't force everyone to use the same computers, software, or expense system. The "JAM" sessions seemed pretty worthless, or maybe we were not trained well enough to make use of them to where they are worthwhile to us on an individual level.

IBM has great technical projects, amazing engineers, programmers and scientists and the horsepower to make things happen.Cons
IBM has changed from the overly safe, job for lifetime, company before the 90's to a highly competitive employer constantly pruning the perceived bottom 10%. While teamwork is required to complete projects, rewards are focused on individuals. If you are highly skilled, competitive and seek the limelight, go for it.Advice to ManagementAdvice

Billionaire George Soros getting married for the third time
Aug 12 (Reuters) - Billionaire investor George Soros had a lot to celebrate on Saturday evening: his 82nd birthday and the engagement to his much younger girlfriend Tamiko Bolton.
Soros and Bolton, who met in the spring of 2008, formally announced their engagement at a party at Soros' summer home in Southampton, New York attended by a small group of friends and relatives, according to a person familiar with the trader.
Soros proposed to Bolton, 40, a few weeks ago during a weekend visit to the Hamptons, a summer beachside colony on Long Island frequented by New York's wealthy.
For Soros, this will be his third marriage and the second for Bolton, who was married briefly in the 1990s. Soros has five children from his previous marriages.
Last year, Adriana Ferreyr ,a former girlfriend of Soros, filed a lawsuit in Manhattan state court, alleging he reneged on a promise to buy her an apartment. Soros has filed a pending motion to dismiss the lawsuit filed by the former Brazilian soap opera star.
Also in 2011, Soros, who is an active contributor to politically liberal causes and frequently speaks on world economic events, converted his hedge fund into a family office and stopped managing money for outside investors.
Soros rose to fame and fortune two decades ago on a now-historic trade, in which he took on the Bank of England and shrewdly wagered on a devaluation of the British pound.
Bolton, who once started an Internet-based dietary supplement business and is now running a web-based yoga education business, has a masters degree in business from the University of Miami.
The engagement ring Soros gave Bolton, according to a person close to the trader, is a Graff diamond in a platinum setting on a rose gold band.
Among the guests at the party at Soros' summer home were journalist Jane Bryant Quinn and Blackstone's Byron Wien.
Earlier this year, Reuters first reported that Soros' son Jonathan, who last September stepped down from day-to-day management of the affairs at Soros Fund Management, had decided to set-up his own family office. In moving to manage his own money, Soros' son also planned to take on key employee of Soros Fund Management, which last reported having about $25 billion in assets.

I have driven by Blackwell Motors in their Farmington and Bonne Terre locations. Their lots are clean, the cars look clean and have to smile when I se their chicken car and the other various animals they use to promote their business. Too bad the City of Arnold feels they are so much better than Bonne Terre and Farmington and make it difficult for those successful businesses that are willing to locate here.

I have bought two (2) trucks from Blackwell in Farmington. First I have no complaint with. It had issues with it when I bought it and I was made aware of them ahead of the sell. I needed a better truck so I went bacl to the same salesman. This time, I trusted to salesman to be honest again.
I called and told him what I was looking for. He called me back and said he had the truck I needed. Told me it was a good condition. I was on a job out of town, so I trusted him. I told the everything worked on the truck including the A/C. I came home, went to look at the truck. It looked great.
I was short on time because I had to get back to work. I went signed the paper and come back to get the truck. I was told the A/C had an issue and needed to be worked on. I want Kevin of David Lilley to pay to have the A/C fitted. If Kevin didn't stand behind this issue, I will go to court about it.
