Speaker 1: This is the Yolo Rum podcast with WIGNZ.
WIGNZ: Yolo Rum podcast, episode three. We've had Ballyhoo in here, Howie, and then we've had Caspa, but it's a Yolo Rum podcast, so we have to kick it off right. We have the founder and CEO with us, Phil. Say hello, Phil.
Phil: Hello everybody.
WIGNZ: So, we're going to get into it, but we also have on the phone with us chief business development officer for Yolo Rum, Eric Swanson. What's up Eric?
Eric: Hey, hey. How's it going?
Phil: In the house!
WIGNZ: Eric in the House. E3PO. He goes by multiple names. I think this is a good episode. Eric is out in Florida. Is that where you're at right now, Eric, you're in Florida? I know you travel a lot.
Phil: I am. I'm currently in Sain Petersburg, Florida.
WIGNZ: And Eric kills it out there for Yolo Rum. I mean, he kills it just in general for us for years, so we'll get into that whole story about how Phil and Eric met and what started this relationship that helped us get Yolo Rum in Florida. Phil, let's do a little intro, man. Let's talk about Yolo Rum, how you founded this amazing company, this amazing brand, and then let's talk about how you started that relationship with Eric and got that going. How did Yolo Rum officially start, Phil?
Phil: You know, traveling to Central America and drinking a lot of Rum and wondering why people don't drink more rum in the United States, I started out on a personal mission to introduce everybody to delicious, Central American rum. Yolo Rum achieves that. It's from Panama, and it's made from the best rum maker in the world, Don Poncho Fernandez, and we've won 21 international awards to date.
WIGNZ: Yes sir, and we're sipping on some Yolo rum right now.
Phil: Yeah. Cheers. Yolo.
WIGNZ: We've got Phil's signature drink, the Pom. A little bit of Yolo Silver in there and some Perrier, and we made some videos, so I can actually make drinks now, Eric I know Eric's good at the cocktails. I suck at those. If it's not a coke and rum, I don't know how to make it.
Eric: No, the videos are crushing, and Yolo Rum itself is crushing. It never ceases to amaze me the things that we overcome and the things that we accomplish as a team. With Phil's excellent leadership and the people he has around him, I hate to use a baseball euphemism, but it's sort of like he has built a World Series team, and it's just waiting for the right month to kick it all off and grab the trophy. It's crazy how far the videos have come, how far the company has come as a whole, I guess, is what I'm getting around to.
WIGNZ: I agree, and Eric, I know you're going to hate this because you're a Cubs fan, but I was thinking of that movie with Brad Pitt where he helps the Oakland A's build it all of statistics.
Eric: Money Ball.
WIGNZ: Money Ball, yeah, and so you are the Brad Pitt of the rum industry, bro, you're the Money Ball, Phil.
Eric: Yeah, Phil is the Brad Pitt of the rum industry.
Phil: I look a lot like him too. That's probably what you guys are saying. Frequently, I am told that, so I am not surprised to hear this now. That's why I had no reaction. It's like yeah, of course.
WIGNZ: Yeah. You're used to it by now.
Phil: I'm used to it. I definitely resemble Brad Pitt.
WIGNZ: Without a doubt. Without a doubt. After a few rum drinks, I'm just looking at you thinking that I'm in fucking Fight Club right now, bro.
Phil: Now you're scaring me.
WIGNZ: I want to get into, Eric, overall, as a musician and a tour manager now, but let's talk a little bit about how you and Phil connected. That'll kind of touch upon that, but I think that story's crazy. How did you and Phil … I mean, you're from two different worlds. You're in Florida. We're out here in Colorado. The rum was kind of based in Denver, and because of you, it's in Florida, but how did that initial relationship get started between you two?
Eric: I always wonder how people have such interesting stories when they tell them, and I'm like wow, that's amazing that that happened to you, and how Phil and I came about actually is a really interesting story. I think it was all by natural cause, but I was working with Slightly Stupid and Silverback, have for years. Previous to this life that I'm living now, I was a graphic designer for many years, and I wrapped boats, and cars, and planes, and babies with vinyl graphics. Occasionally, I get the call for some special stuff, and I believe I got an email from Cyprus Hill, Slightly Stupid, Seedless and Silverback.
Eric: They all said hey, would you be interested in wrapping a van, and they sent me a picture of a cartoon, and this is something Dane Homequest drew up for one of the Red Rock shows, Slightly Stupid, Cyprus Hill, and 420 at Red Rock, and what they wanted to do is take the cartoon off the poster and drive it onto the stage for access television, and those guys are great about that stuff too. Who makes a cartoon of reality? Well, it's guys like Phil and I.
Eric: So, Phil, in his mixed up world, if I'm remembering correctly, working with Seedless pretty heavy at that time, and having the networking, again, the great team around him that was able to pull this off, Josh was able to put together this van. So, he got an old, what was it Phil?
Phil: 68 Chevy. Yeah, it was a 68 Chevy van.
WIGNZ: How did you find that?
Phil: It was a farm find, actually. There were a couple, but it was a fresh farm find, and we had to put a new motor in it. We had actually, when we got this project, we had six days to complete it when they told us we were going to do it. We actually found it-
WIGNZ: It's like a reality show.
Phil: -bought it. We should've really documented it after we did it, but it was a marathon. By the end of it, we were all like dying from pneumonia because we had all been working like-
WIGNZ: Yeah because you're saying the show is probably going down on 4/20. It's 4/20. So, you're looking at April 14th, they come at you-
Phil: Exactly.
WIGNZ: -and say hey, we want this to happen.
Phil: So, we totally had to rebuild this van on the interior and exterior, did an extremely good job-
Eric: Absolutely amazing, and this is no small feat, and I think we need to kind of focus on what a large feat that this was, and when I showed up, or when I got the call … sorry. My dog is barking.
WIGNZ: I'm sorry. Eric's dog looks like one of those dogs that should be in a commercial. He should be on the biscuit box for dogs.
Phil: Can we see a picture of the dog?
WIGNZ: We should show you, Brad Pitt, holding the dog, bro.
Phil: Oh yeah, whatever.
Eric: So, I get the call about this van, and I'm like okay, well I have the same among of time to prepare the large format graphics, which at that time, it was not quite as advanced and we had to leave it drying for a couple of days, and it shut down a printing shop here in Tampa for two days to print all the material for this van. So, I ball it up or roll it up, put it in a suitcase, and get on a plane, and I get off the plane, and they're just like yeah, go down to this garage, and here sits this van, primered up, beautiful shag green, lime green interior plush carpeting and disco ball hanging from the inside. I was like holy crap. Not only did they find a van to match the poster, they got the exact van and built it out to specs.
WIGNZ: That is a reality show, yeah.
Eric: We spent three days, to speed that part of the story up, Phil, every day from gosh, I don't even know when we started, 6 am to 3 am, for three days we spent in this garage, a mechanic shop.
WIGNZ: And not even knowing each other, right, because at this point-
Eric: No.
WIGNZ: -you guys were just the middle men for the higher ups.
Eric: And we're sitting there talking at some point, and we're almost through with the van at this point, thank God, and he's like yeah, so this rum, and he brings it up, and I'm like huh, it sounds awesome. Long and short of it, talked about me living in Florida and whatever. So, anyway, the week after, Phil gave me pneumonia, which he argues to this day that he did not.
Phil: I think that we all got it from several places.
Eric: I had two ear infections and pneumonia when I came home. I'm not kidding. It was brutal.
Phil: I couldn't even go to that show. That was horrible. I was so sick, I couldn't even go to the 4/20 show-
WIGNZ: After all that work, you couldn't even see the van drive out.
Phil: I was supposed to be backstage with the van.
Eric: If I remember correctly, Phil's doctor put him on a breathing machine or something.
Phil: Yeah, I was doing nebulizer treatments. God, that was crazy. We just worked so hard. We just worked as hard as we could.
WIGNZ: I'm sorry for Eric and for you, Phil, and I think all of us at Yolo Rum, that's just the work ethic of all of us, and so I think that's probably what … I mean, obviously, kindled that bond and relationship between you two because you had appreciation that you guys were really working yourself to death.
Eric: Absolutely. Absolutely.
Phil: And Eric did a great job wrapping the van. It was amazing. Came in, attack of the project.
Eric: There's no shortcoming with Phil, and when it comes down to it, his probably only shortcoming is that he wants to do it all, but anything he sets his mind out to do, he does. I learned from seeing his employees from his other businesses, all of them smiling and happy, and he really has a healthy environment around ti.
WIGNZ: Agreed.
Phil: Thanks guys.
Eric: He's just an amazing leader, and it's been amazing to be a part of.
Phil: Aw shucks.
WIGNZ: You're the leader of Fight Club.
Eric: He says we need rum in Florida, and I'm like yeah, there's a lot of rum down here, and it's like yeah, well what's up with that? He's like you might be the guy. I'm like I don't think I'm the guy, and he's like I might be the guy.
WIGNZ: Phil does have that. Phil can spot the talent, I think, even in the individual without the individual knowing that they have that talent.
Phil: Well, you guys are all part of this team. We have like an Oceans 11 here at Yolo Rum.
WIGNZ: Yep.
Phil: And you guys are definitely part of that. Everybody plays their role, but we bring it strong. We have a crazy team, and you guys are definitely a huge part of that, and it's by no coincidence or by luck that you guys are here. You have earned your position in the company, and we've done this. We've grinded this out over the last five years together, and we've achieved amazing things. We're just at the very beginning, but now, things are really starting to come together.
Phil: I commend you guys for sticking to it and having the discipline to be able to say hey, we're going to work on this project, and it's not going to be done today, and it's not going to be done tomorrow, but in several years from now, we're going to have this amazing company, and we've built it from nothing. You guys have earned every ounce of respect that I have for you, and I appreciate everything that you guys do every single day, and we are a crazy animal, and I say that a lot of times, but all of our skills together are unparalleled as far as I'm concerned.
WIGNZ: Now, so Yolo Rum has been around for five years. You guys starting that relationship, you were almost, I'd like to say since the beginning, right Eric? You've been part of Yolo since-
Eric: Yeah, I think he was probably a year in at that point. He had some in the country for sure, but we were self-distributing in Colorado and had a few accounts, and I think Phil was really trying to wrap his mind around what he was going to do with it. I brought home, or however the legal term is, I wound up with a couple bottles in Florida, and I took them to a couple of places, and people were like yeah, we like it. I don't know if in the beginning, they got behind the brand as much as they got behind the people. Phil and the team visited Florida many times, and it's just an infectious group of people. There's no two ways about it. If we were selling frisbees, when we leave the room, you're going to-
WIGNZ: Love that frisbee.
Eric: Yeah.
WIGNZ: Seriously, I mean, I kind of want to fast forward to where Phil saw the potential for a podcast, and we started Larry Uncensored in the Yolo Rum studio, but even that relationship, Eric, you allowed us to go back stage at Red Rocks for a Slightly Stupid show, and we set up, and it had never really been done before, but we set up and recorded a podcast backstage at the Slightly Stupid show. We got to talk to John Philips, who was the manager for Sublime back in the day, and then was part of Silverback that you talked about earlier, and so that in and of itself was okay, I need to, for me personally, I need to meet the expectations of what these guys are delivering.
WIGNZ: Phil delivers a great product with the rum. He executes business on point. I was like Eric is a part of an amazing tour with an amazing band, and I have to execute on here. So, I think it's very nice to almost come full circle in this moment and be able to say hey, our Yolo Rum podcast episode three going off. We're not only just talking about the rum, but we get to talk about the history and kind of document this story because this story is so unique, and I just think, like you said, it's Oceans 11, Phil.
Phil: Absolutely.
Eric: There's a skillset, Wig, in capturing. You meet a lot of interesting people in the world, and you just have to remember it. There's real value to podcasts and how far the technology has come because you do really bring out some details and some stories, and Phil, people will pay money one day to hear Phil speak. He's that type of businessman. He's that savvy, and he's that motivational that he should have his own business. He started from a clay mushroom and a 200 dollar loan, I think, and to think of all the things he's done, and to think that you can capture it on any level for other people to hear is amazing.
WIGNZ: No, I agree. It's exciting to see all of us come together and know what's coming next. For everyone out there, a lot of you are probably listening to this because there's that opportunity to invest in Yolo Rum. We have a chance for you to own a piece of Yolo Rum. So, a lot of you are listening to this podcast, and you know the history now, but there is that opportunity, and it depends on when you're listening to this podcast, but it's coming out to where you can actually literally get a piece of this company. YoloRum.com/invest, and Phil, do you want to talk a little bit about what that opportunity is and what people can expect with it?
Phil: We're actually going to be doing what's called an equity crowdfunding, and that will be on Wefunder's platform, which I'm excited to announce, and that's the first time that I've said that publicly. It makes me feel funny inside, but it's exciting. We're authorizing 10 percent of the shares of the company to be sold for a fundraise. We're not just looking for people to invest money in our company. We're really looking for people to help us with sales leads, get out and ask for the product, buy the product, tell their friends about it, but we really want people to be actively involved and kind of like a brand ambassador.
Phil: That's why this way that we're going is so important to us, and it's democracy funding, and we're going to grow this company up by using people, and the same skills that we have, we're going to ask other people to kind of step up and help us do it too. It'll be live and active hopefully in the beginning of June 2018, depending on when you're listening to this.
WIGNZ: Exactly. You missed your chance if it's after that.
Eric: Exactly. Once in a lifetime.
Phil: We're using it as a big springboard to kind of get our brand out there and to build on our brand, and we have some pretty big plans for our brand. We were really pre-equity or pre-revenue is really what I want to say, before this point, but now we have distribution nailed down, national distribution nailed down, and we have some really exciting things happening. So, it's a good time to invest in us. It's a good time to invest in our company.
WIGNZ: Can we talk about the trademark at all?
Phil: You know, the trademark was an exciting journey. We've had a lot of big companies try to kind of keep the little guy down, and we were able to prevail in a kind of tort over our trademark, but after five and a half years, we will be solidifying our trademark, which is a really exciting thing for us. We've had to actually clear a bunch of people that tried to lay stake and claim to it, but really didn't have legitimate rights, and we were the first. Our website was up, and we had our certification, our labels, our approvals from the government, and we own Yolo Rum, and that's our trademark. Everybody that knows, knows.
WIGNZ: Yeah. It's next level, and it's just an exciting time because I think we've been working hard for this moment since the van wrapping with Eric to get to this precipice, if you will, and I think it's just super exciting, and I think that being able to do this podcast at the same time that we're doing that and talking to the audience because I think the more that our relationships grow with everyone out there, the more we can have cool guests like Ballyhoo, which was because of Eric, and talk to these guests. Eric, because of you, man, we've had the opportunity to talk to Miles from Slightly Stupid. We've talked to John Philips. We've talked to the bass player for Soja. You yourself, you're very modest, and I've been waiting, and I've been saying oh, I need to have you on this podcast. We've got to have you on this podcast. Talk about your experience. As a musician, you're now the tour manager for Soja. Is that right?
Eric: That's correct.
WIGNZ: So, how did you get into the music scene? How did you evolve, and where was your starting point? I know that's probably a long, loaded question, but how did you get from a musician, and you grew E3PO, which I remember and love that name, to the point of where you're the tour manager for Soja?
Eric: I think in short, you just have to keep at anything. As a kid playing music, I wanted to do that as a profession, and over time, life beats that out of you. Things we love, life beats it out of you. You wind up going to the mill or to the factory and working, and I'd leave the music business, and I'd try that for a while, and I'd go back to the music business. I just realized if you put me in a cubicle, I'll die, and so I found fluid work through graphic design and things that allowed me to tour as a musician, and then after 15 years of that, you realize that the format's changed, the market, the climate changes.
Eric: I decided at some point in the internet era entering the scene that I knew if I wasn't going to be on the cover of Rolling Stone, that I still had to be in the business, and that was my happy place. I think it's important everyone find a happy place. I found ways, like Yolo Rum, to make it work together. I found other ways to make it work together so that instead of one pulling another, everything you do can kind of help one another.
Eric: Yolo Rum has been very supportive of that, and the music business has been very supportive of Yolo Rum, as to where brands pay six figures to be endorsed by them at concerts, and we didn't pay anything. So, we were able to set up Yolo Rum stuff backstage at concerts and kind of make way for the podcast and et cetera, but the truth of the matter is, if you put it in a nutshell … demo tips in my bedroom, and I mailed them to a record company from the time I was 15 until God knows when, and finally, they just said you know what, we don't want to sign you, but we're going to give you a job.
WIGNZ: Persistence. Persistence pays off, and not giving up on your dreams. I think that's kind of what summarizes that.
Phil: And now, he's like doing some pretty big recording stuff. What do you got going on?
WIGNZ: Yeah, that's right. You've got the new song "Alright" with Dela from Slightly Stupid, Kenny Bongos, Soja, Ted from Pacifier, and I mean, even the proceeds of that are going to charity. Yeah, tell us a little bit about that.
Eric: Yeah, we have a new track. It's up on iTunes and all those places. It's called "Alright" and I started this … I have a million bands, whatever, and I just got tired of all the band names, and Eric Swanson is not a cool name by any stretch of the imagination.
WIGNZ: Oh, come on man.
Eric: Well, you know, everyone advised against calling it Eric Swanson. I was like you know what, it's going to be alright, and I just was like it's fine, but what I did was wanted to create … people don't pay for music anymore. Streaming has kind of-
WIGNZ: Killed that.
Eric: Yeah, kind of killed that, but I thought there was still a way to buy music for a cause, not just because. So, we came up with this project. It's still in the process right now, but it's called Lenders of Light, and it's sort of like a super group. It's an idea that we produce these singles, and put it out, and the Lenders of Light project means that all the proceeds will go to charity, and all of the proceeds, if you download "Alright" goes to the American Cancer Society, specifically Relay for Life. Everybody got behind it. It's just a good cause, and when you see it shared across the platforms and everybody talking about it, it just feels good to do it.
WIGNZ: It shows your love for music. I think it fills your passion. Your whole story shows that, but it's not about the almighty dollar, which is what I think drives some of these kids … I don't want to say kids. It makes me sound old, but these musicians that thing oh yeah, I want to be millions, I want to show that bling, and you're just about the music and the art.
Eric: Yeah, I think … the thing is about anything in life, and Phil can attest to this, and I'm sure you can too, Wig, do what you love, but be flexible. Just because you love laying bricks doesn't mean you're always going to lay great bricks on a Friday. You sometimes have to lay red, small bricks on a Monday, you know? Sometimes, you have to make the bricks. You have to be flexible, and I think the real gravity of the situation hit me at I'm tour manager for Soja, two time Grammy nominee Reggae band, I'm a big fan as well as part of their team, I was sitting in my office a month ago, or couple weeks ago, seems like months ago now, and they were like hey, can you come out onstage?
Eric: I was like oh shit, what's the problem? So, I get up and I walk out there, and I'm like what's going on, guys, and the whole band is playing the song "Alright" and I'm like what the hell. They're like get on the mic, man, and I was like oh this is awesome. So, we did the song, and we finished. I was like guys, best day ever. This was really cool, and they were like well, we're doing it tonight, and I was like okay. So, sold out show in South Carolina, they brought me out onstage, and we did it, and they pumped the song. I was like holy cow.
Phil: Dang dude. Good job. Congratulations, man.
WIGNZ: That's amazing. Yeah, congrats.
Eric: Yeah, so the next day, you know, they're just like it's a great song, great cause, we want to support you, whatever, and I'm like cool, it was a lot of fun, best day ever. So, the next day, we're in Atlanta at the Sweetwater 420 Festival, and we are in the shadows of this huge skyscraper with a 20 foot sign on it that says American Cancer Society, and we all walked off the tour bus and looked at each other, and they're like we gotta do it again today. So, yeah, it was amazing. Jacob Hemphill, the singer of Soja, in-between songs, introduces the track patiently and compassionately, and we're able to spread the love, man. So, it's love begotten love with love.
WIGNZ: That's amazing, and that's just the power of music in and of itself. Being able to help others, I mean, it doesn't get any better than that. That feeling of … was that the largest crowd you were able to perform in front of? What was that like? Were you nervous, did the nerves go away because I know you've been performing for so long. How did you feel?
Eric: I don't think nervous is the right word, but I think 20,000 people, well in that particular case, for whatever reason, Jacob decided to have them chant my name. He was like say this name, Eric Swanson, and they're like Eric Swanson, and he's like no, that wasn't good enough. Say it again and articulate. Eric Swanson. So, the whole crowd says Eric Swanson. He's like okay, well that's our tour manager, and we're going to bring him out, and I was like that was sort of momentous, I guess.
Eric: Yes, it was the biggest crowd, to answer your question. That was. It brought me to tears for more than one reason. We're all affected by cancer, and I'm not trying to bring the vibe of this whole podcast down, but we all have those people in our lives, and the gravity of the situation hits you in different times. It brought tears to my eyes. So, was it the best day ever, yeah, probably. It was cool, but you should buy it yourself or stream it a bunch and hopefully we can all chip away at-
WIGNZ: Yeah, all make a difference and make an impact. Well, Eric, it's amazing what you're doing. I'm hoping you're going to be back in Colorado. Does it look like Soja is going to be headed this way?
Eric: Yeah. We're going to be back, and in fact, maybe we can get one of the guys on a podcast. I'm going to be in Winter Park with the guys here coming up.
Phil: When is that? When are you guys going to do that?
Eric: The Winter Park show, we're in Fort Collins on the 15th of June, and we're in Winter Park on the 16th of June.
WIGNZ: Well, Eric, you're just everywhere. It's exciting to have you just be part of this as you do what you do. The chief business development officer, the official title for Yolo Rum, and Phil, thank you. The CEO and founder of Yolo Rum.
Phil: What's your title?
WIGNZ: Oh, I am the chief digital officer.
Phil: There you go. Congratulations to both of you guys on that.
Eric: Yeah, that's a huge deal.
Phil: It is a big deal.
Eric: And if anyone does listen to this podcast and trying to make sense of it, the reality of it is is the investing into this company is like investing into a family, and it's probably never been done before, which is pretty much our MO, and it's really exciting to be a part of something that feels this good. Just go with the flow. Check us out online, and we have enough social media and intellectual property out there to entice you.
WIGNZ: You never know. It might get you to a Soja show. You might be able to go hang out with Eric, and Phil and me right there at a Soja show right there in Winter Park. You never know.

USA Today bestselling author, Dani René, and International bestselling author, Anna Edwards, writing together for the first time, bring you a raw and emotional duet full of deceit and lies and a fight for revenge.
By the time she was sixteen, Samara had everything stolen from her. Even her chance at love was cruelly ripped apart when she's abandoned by the man she loved, Archer King. After years of training with Hunter, a man who's given her hope, she's been able to claw her way out of the darkness. With him by her side, Samara is ready to exact a bitter and cruel revenge on those who wronged her.
What she doesn't count on though is seeing her first love again. But he's no longer the boy she remembers, instead he's become a handsome man wielding power in all the wrong places.
Archer is the security head of an evil organization. Swift and harsh justice is all he knows, and punishment is all he doles out. Even though Archer revels in his role, he can't shake the feeling that something is wrong.
A string of violent deaths bring him face to face with the culprit. A raven haired woman he doesn't remember.
Will he carry out his orders to kill? Or can she be the key to discovering who he really is?
Enter The Factory if you dare.

Anna Edwards Bio:
All I am a British author, from the depths of the rural countryside near London. In a previous life, I was an accountant from the age of twenty-one. I still do that on occasions, but most of my life is now spent intermingling writing while looking after my husband, two children and two cats (probably in the inverse order to the one listed!). When I have some spare time, I can also be found writing poetry, baking cakes (and eating them), or behind a camera snapping like a mad paparazzi.
I'm an avid reader who turned to writing to combat my depression and anxiety. I have a love of travelling and like to bring this to my stories to give them the air of reality.
I like my heroes hot and hunky with a dirty mouth, my heroines demure but with spunk, and my books full of dramatic suspense.

Is the violent crime rate rising? Recent reports in Virginia and nationwide came to widely different results.
In a report released earlier this year, Virginia State Police said the number of violent crimes fell 2% in 2018. For the purposes of the report, violent crimes were defined as homicide, forcible sex offenses, robbery and aggravated assault. Homicides alone fell 14%. States vary widely in how they compile and report crime statistics, but many other states have reported similar drops.
However, a recent survey released by the U.S. Department of Justice points to a different conclusion. The Bureau of Justice Statistics' National Crime Victimization Survey 2018 interviewed about 240,000 people, asking if they had been the victims of violent crime. The number of people answering in the affirmative was much higher than official crime reports would suggest. The discrepancy was so big that researchers said they believe less than half of all violent crimes are reported to the police.
The biggest difference researchers found was in the number of people reporting they had been the victims of sexual assault. The number in the 2018 report was nearly double the number from a year earlier, 1.4 per 1,000 respondents in 2017 and 2.7 in 2018. Researchers believe recent media attention on sexual harassment and sexual assault led people to feel free to disclose their experiences in a way they had not before.
Our criminal justice system is built on the idea that a jury of ordinary citizens can hear the evidence and arguments in a case and dispassionately, without bias, come to a unanimous decision that the accused is guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt. Unfortunately, juries can be influenced by a lot of other factors outside the courtroom. For instance, when people believe that the violent crime rate is rising, they may be more likely to return guilty verdicts against people who are accused of violent crimes. It's important for the accused to have a skilled lawyer who can defend their rights and speak persuasively to a jury.

Sometimes giving move isn't the answer.
One luck person is alive to tell the tell after he knowledge a near-death flight high above the soil after recognizing he wasn't properly clipped in to his hang glider.
In a video posted to YouTube, "Gursk3" writes in a video entitled "Swiss Mishap" 😛 TAGEND
"My first time Hang Gliding be converted into a near fatality know-how as my safety harness was never secured to the Glider. For 2 Min. 14 seconds I had to hang in for my life! The territory was a rough one, but I lived to tell the story."
But that description just scratches the surface of the entire agony.
Honestly, the entire video is worth watching. If you've ever felt like you're only hanging on for dear life, it can't hurt to have a little position from someone who did just that.
"While the captain made a critical fault in our pre-flight setup by not fixing me to the glider, he did all he could to get me to the floor as soon as possible, while grabbing onto my harness and operating with one hand."
Near the end of the video, he writes that he suffered a "minor: fracture in his wrist that required surgery( titanium plateful and seven screwings) but otherwise escaped unscathed , memorandum dryly 😛 TAGEND
"It hit the alternative."
In fact, he says he plans to head up into the skies once again, writing 😛 TAGEND
"This was the first day of our vacation in Switzerland. Base jumping tomorrow?
"I will go hang moving again as I did not get to enjoy my first flight."

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Flex Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLKS), a clinical-stage biotechnology company that is developing innovative and proprietary treatments for cramps, spasms and spasticity associated with severe neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) under FDA Fast Track designation today announced positive topline data for FLX-787 from its exploratory Phase 2 trial in MS patients with frequent muscle cramps/spasms and spasticity.
"MS patients frequently complain of cramps, spasms, and spasticity which can dramatically affect their quality of life," said Anneke van der Walt, MBChB, FRACP, PhD. Associate Professor of Neurology, Royal Melbourne Hospital, University of Melbourne, Australia, and lead investigator of the study. "These new data suggest that FLX-787 may have the potential to address this important unmet medical need."
FLX-787 at a dose of 19 mg, taken orally twice daily, in a liquid formulation was evaluated in an exploratory Phase 2 randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial in 57 MS patients.
In the evaluation of FLX-787 for its impact on MS patients' cramps/spasms and spasticity, pre-specified analyses of the parallel portion of the study showed:
- A statistically significant 27.3% reduction in the frequency of cramps/spasms compared with control (p=0.001)
- A 1.4 day increase in cramp/spasm-free days per 14 day period compared with control (p=0.0457)
- Clinician-rated improvement in spasticity with FLX-787 treatment was significantly better than control (p=0.01)
- Treating physicians reported that 7 of 28 (25%) patients on FLX-787 had "Much Improved" or "Very Much Improved" spasticity versus 0 of 26 (0%) on control based upon the Clinical Global Impression of Change in Spasticity
In the evaluation of FLX-787 from data that included both cross-over periods in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population:
- The pre-specified analysis of Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) in the patient's spasticity showed statistically significant greater improvement with FLX-787 relative to control (p=0.0427)
- No statistically significant improvement was seen in cramp/spasm frequency, NRS or clinical spasticity scales
FLX-787 was generally well tolerated and resulted in no drug-related serious adverse events. GI-related adverse events (diarrhea and nausea) were infrequently reported with FLX-787.
"We see in these data the clear potential of FLX-787 to improve cramps and spasticity in patients with MS," stated William McVicar, PhD., Flex Pharma President and CEO. "Based upon these strong data and the learnings from this study, we look forward to the development and execution of a refined phase 2b study as part of our full FLX-787 clinical development program."
"Late last year, FLX-787 demonstrated a similar efficacy profile in a small exploratory study of ALS patients. Our MS trial results provide a second set of clinical evidence that FLX-787 may provide beneficial activity in patients with underlying neurological disease and demonstrates the potential of chemical neurostimulation in treating symptoms arising from motor neuron and reflex hyperexcitability," said Flex Pharma Chief Medical Officer Thomas Wessel, M.D., Ph.D.
Data from this study outlined above will be presented at future medical meetings.

Our partners at ePac Digital Packaging have brought the latest in digital printing technology to the cannabis industry, providing cost effective, custom...
By cannabase
Cannabase, a software and technology platform for the legal cannabis industry, and host of Cannabase Marketplace – the oldest and largest online wholesale cannabis exchange in the legal cannabis industry – announces its partnership with BioTrackTHC, a leading provider of cannabis seed-to-sale inventory tracking software systems for both government regulators and cannabis businesses.
Under this partnership, BioTrackTHC and Cannabase endeavor to integrate their systems and provide a seamless experience for cannabis supply-chain activities. Cannabis businesses using BioTrackTHC's enterprise system will be able to provide real-time confirmation of live inventory data to support the execution of real-time exchange transactions on Cannabase. This unprecedented relationship will solve key structural problems involved in the buying and selling of wholesale cannabis.
BioTrackTHC has been awarded 6 government contracts for regulatory seed-to-sale tracking and serves over 1,800 cannabis businesses that use BioTrackTHC for inventory management and point-of-sale. By connecting its user base to Cannabase's industry leading marketplace, this partnership will vastly accelerate the rate at which wholesale transactions can be completed in the nascent cannabis industry.
As the most mature marketplace in the cannabis industry, Cannabase is uniquely positioned to execute on the live exchange opportunity presented by the partnership with BioTrackTHC. As Patrick Vo, BioTrack's Chief Executive Officer, explains, "Seed-to-sale inventory tracking captures data, and that data is the lynchpin around which products and services can be made to provide even greater value to cannabis businesses. Having the ability to push BioTrackTHC data directly to the Cannabase wholesale exchange, and knowing that data from potential suppliers are also coming directly from their inventory management systems, cannabis businesses will be able to make data-driven wholesale buying and selling decisions efficiently. Cannabase's commitment to excellence mirrors our own, and we are excited to partner with them to create a platform that will support all of our shared customers in making their cannabis businesses more successful."
Currently, self-reporting on user-generated wholesale listings limits the thoroughness, accuracy, and traceability of listings in wholesale cannabis markets. As the wholesale market moves towards real-time, instantaneous execution and real settlement, these limitations will be out of compliance with market norms. By combining BioTrackTHC's large customer base and inventory management data to Cannabase's wholesale exchange, this partnership is poised to vastly accelerate the flow of wholesale product for cultivators, infused product manufacturers, and retailers nationwide.
"This partnership is transformative for cannabis wholesale markets nationwide," explains Jennifer Beck, Cannabase's co-founder and Managing Director. "Our mission is to maximize the capabilities of business owners navigating this complex industry through the development of cutting-edge integrated operating environments, and we are looking forward to partnering with BioTrackTHC in this critical component."
Zachary L. Venegas, CEO of Helix TCS, the parent company of Cannabase, echoed Beck and Vo's comments, stating that "We are proud to work with BioTrackTHC in this important endeavor for the evolution of the wholesale marketplace. As we further unveil the technologies, partnerships, and business lines that we have built, we will continue to provide our clients, partners, and investors with the real benefits that accrue from our focus on strategic innovation realized by rapid, disciplined execution."

text: cannabisnews.com: Pot Proposal Passes; Alcohol Plan Doesn't Pot Proposal Passes; Alcohol Plan Doesn't Posted by CN Staff on November 09, 2005 at 07:01:54 PT By Gina Damron & Bill Laitner, Staff Writers Source: Detroit Free Press Ferndale, Michigan -- Light up, but don't drink up. Those were voters' verdicts in neighboring Ferndale and Oak Park.A Ferndale proposal to allow the medical use of marijuana passed, 1,894-1,222. And a proposal in Oak Park to allow sales of alcohol by the glass, according to unofficial results, failed 3,184-1,869 with all but some of the absentee ballots counted. With the passing of its proposal, Ferndale joins Detroit and Ann Arbor, which in 2004 approved allowing marijuana for medical use.Such initiatives have been approved in 10 states, but not in Michigan, so the new measure flies in the face of state laws banning marijuana possession. Police, including Ferndale Chief Michael Kitchen, pledged to ignore such an ordinance and arrest anyone found with the drug."It basically just seems like a big waste of time to me," said Ferndale resident Michele Sibula, 44. "Does approving that mean that we're cool? I think that's the implication."Proponents include a group called the Ferndale Coalition for Compassionate Care, led by University of Michigan sophomore Donal O'Leary III."I think people realize that this is a legitimate medical question," O'Leary said.In Oak Park, voters shot down the proposal, which would have allowed businesses that made 50% of their profits from food sales to sell alcohol. The issue came up last year after the city acquired a portion of Royal Oak Township through a land- and tax-sharing agreement that had businesses with liquor licenses, including a karaoke bar, Royal Kubo, on Greenfield south of I-696.

After years of mouthing prohibitionist propaganda, they are just learning about fungibles, like replacing alcohol use with cannabis use. At least they made a lame connection. Thanks, SAFER. Medical cannabis is not necessarily about smoking: vaporizers, tinctures, ointments, edibles often appeal to medical patients. This continued emphasis on smoking (obviously a reference to recreational use) plays into the hands of the prohibitionists with their 'save the children' and 'no medicine is smoked' rhetoric. Legislate, regulate, educate. [ Post Comment ] Comment #3 posted by runruff on November 09, 2005 at 07:51:39 PT: Where's that fence? Don't forget.

The barbaric cult's propaganda groups Wilayat al-Furat and Wilayat Nineveh both issued warped videos calling for more slaughter on French soil.
Demented jihadi Mohamed Bouhlel ploughed his lorry into the Bastille Day crowd last week, killing 84 innocent people.
In one of the shocking clips, a fanatic who can speak French, celebrates the tragic Nice events and claims Bouhlel was an "inspired Muslim".
He then calls for other warped fighters to follow Bouhlel's lead and attack the nation.
The ISIS militant accuses France's air force of "continuing to kill innocent Muslims in Iraq and Syria".
Daesh spokesman Abu Muhammad al-Adnani's quote from 2014, calling for more Muslims to carry out lone wolf attacks against the West, also features in the chilling clip.
Adnani urges Muslims to "kill a disbelieving American or European – especially the spiteful and filthy French".
The second clip, released by Wilayat Nineveh, sees two-more French speakers from the demented cult address Francois Hollande and threaten to "intensify" the attacks in Franace.
They then praise the group's capabilities before going on to behead two men they claim are Iraqi Shi'ite soldiers captured in the Nineveh Province.
The horrific clip pans to locals claiming people in Nice "had it coming to them for bombing our homes".

E-mails: State official privately derided tech firm while publicly promoting it
AUSTIN — Former Texas health official Jack Stick tried to persuade dozens of other states to buy Austin technology company 21CT's Medicaid fraud detection system even as he privately complained that the results it produced for Texas were worth "a bucket of warm spit," according to his email messages.
Stick worked for months to push the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to buy 21CT's system, the emails show. Then, after the company got a no-bid contract in 2012, he cited supposed successes of the project to promote the system to at least 25 other states and the federal government.
The messages, obtained by the Houston Chronicle after months of delays by the commission, illustrate how Stick helped 21CT before questions about favoritism forced him to resign in December. A half-dozen other people with ties to the $110 million project have since resigned.
Stick said the emails show that he was "generally pleased with the work the state's contractor was doing and did not hesitate to share that with other people when they asked."
"Most importantly," he added, "I think they show that when I thought the state's interests were not being well or properly served, I responded immediately and firmly. The state's interests always remained my first priority."
A 21CT spokesman said the company "stands by the exceptional work" it did for Texas.
"While select e-mails might appear controversial and generate provocative headlines, they often draw a picture that is incomplete or inaccurate," he said.
The e-mails reviewed by the Chronicle show that Stick and 21CT collaborated closely on an aggressive and at times inaccurate campaign of boasting.
Stick's team sent confidential information to Ohio's health department as part of a sales pitch about 21CT's system. He wrote an assistant to ask her to send documents to Florida officials considering the system. He told a California official he could get the company to do a demonstration there.
Most of all, he bragged.
"Other than my kids being born, Air Force One landing and Niagara Falls," Stick wrote to Wisconsin's anti-fraud watchdog. "I don't think I've ever seen anything quite that impressive."
But according to the e-mails, the system struggled to conclusively identify much of any fraud, in part because of repeated delays in obtaining and ingesting data.
The delays left Stick "sorely tested and keenly disappointed," according to an April 2014 e-mail he sent to an assistant and blindly copied to 21CT CEO Irene Williams.
"After one year of loading (Managed Care Organization), we have 10 months ingested. 10 months. That is worth next to nothing. Not even a bucket of warm spit," wrote Stick, who at the time was preparing to ask the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to fund a project expansion. "How can I possibly ask CMS for more. … They are properly going to ask where all the money went. This is going to be utterly humiliating when they find out."
The assistant responded that she had been "working extremely hard" and felt that the progress was "pretty impressive" given the newness of the system.
A few weeks later, Stick not only asked federal officials for more money but urged them to expand the Texas system into a "regional hub" to identify fraud across several states.
When federal officials responded in June 2014 that they were "very interested" in the idea, Stick quickly forwarded the message to Williams.
"Confidential," he wrote.
The regional hub never got off the ground; the expansion won tentative approval but collapsed when the project was canceled amid questions from the Chronicle and the Austin American-Statesman.
The project, which Stick led as the commission's deputy inspector general, aimed to identify fraud as it happened with technology that could spot patterns across a wide range of data sets and social networks.
Stick told his boss he first viewed 21CT's system in July 2011. Less than two months later, Stick said he planned to be "minutely involved in implementing and using the technology."
"I'd like to push this hard," Stick added.
Stick has said publicly that he pushed 21CT because he was smitten with its technology. But in a May 2014 e-mail to a 21CT staffer, he said "21CT got this deal because of Irene and Robert and Jim," referring to Williams, her husband and another company executive.
The company has said it followed processes set by the state. It has added that its system identified $200 million in potential fraud, although the commission has said it has not confirmed or recovered any of it.
A former lobbyist for the company, meanwhile, has said Stick was angling to get a job at the company.
Hoping to gauge the explanations, the Chronicle first requested his emails shortly after he resigned. The commission initially refused, citing a criminal investigation.
The emails in this story include complaints from Stick and colleagues.
In addition to Stick's worries about data importation, his colleagues expressed concern that 21CT's technology was repetitive. In October 2013, an assistant wrote Stick to say a finding of potential fraud he had touted as a 21CT success had been discovered by the commission months earlier — and found to not be problematic.
"I am also curious as to why 21CT is re-creating the existing (queries) that are being run and worked by (commission) staff when I thought they were going to be developing new methods," the assistant added.
Stick also expressed unease with how much he was helping 21CT, including in January 2014 when an aide told him the company "wants to talk to you about who you know in Oklahoma and Arizona."
"I'm surprised at his ballsiness," Stick responded to his secretary, comparing it to the executive saying, "'Hey, Jack, will you be a salesman for us?'"
But that did not stop the promotion. Four days later, Stick emailed another 21CT executive a copy of a presentation he had given at a conference touting the company.
"Were they putty in your hands?" the executive asked.
"They were," Stick said.
In addition to conferences, the emails show Stick promoted 21CT directly to dozens of other states — starting even before the project began.
In March 2012, nine months before signing the first purchase order, Stick touted 21CT's "graph pattern analysis" in a webinar for the National Conference of State Legislatures.
Afterward, Stick told the moderator that he wanted to continue to promote 21CT because it was "too good to hide."
In another public pitch a year later, Stick emailed 18 other Medicaid watchdogs to say 21CT's technology had already paid for itself "many times over."
"It looks like LYNXeon will help us double or triple the total number and dollar value of cases we identify annually," Stick wrote. The follow-up questions poured in, including from a Connecticut official.
In a series of messages with that official, Stick at one point said 21CT "once again blew me away."
Connecticut eventually gave 21CT a three-year contract worth an estimated $24 million — a purchase that represents Stick's only successful sales job.
But the best illustration of Stick's promotion campaign involves Florida.
That state got attention earlier this year because Stick's calendar included a meeting at 21CT's headquarters to talk about a demonstration for Florida officials. At the time, Stick told reporters he attended to view 21CT's presentation so he "could be certain no confidential recipient information was in it."
The emails, however, show Stick coached 21CT on the demo as part of a monthslong sales pitch.
One day in July 2013, Stick told a 21CT staffer the demo must "show them the future," then emailed Florida Medicaid watchdog Rich Zenuch to say the event "should be good."
Florida chose a different company for the project. But the affair was not a total loss for 21CT. Last August, it hired Zenuch to be on its executive staff.

Wine tasting :
Deep purple colour. Coffee-mocha aroma, the oak evident, but also rich, ripe fruit behind. The coffee-caramel oak effect is still very present, but there's a depth and volume of fruit as well. Opulent and seductive in a modern and full-on way. Tannins are present, but refined.
The marriage of dishes and wines :
With a game bird or a game animal with ancient vegetables, this wine will be the perfect companion.
Feature :
Very complex wine, this special reserve is unusual by the aromatic intensity of very ripe black fruits and spices (liquorice, cloves). A full-bodied attack leaves the place quickly to gentle tannins, a warm flesh, aromas infiltrated of blackcurrant and blueberry with overtone of thyme. The final is grandiose.
Type of soil :
Clayey - calcareous soil and rolled pebbles.
Grape varieties / age : Grenache 1/3 (130 years) - Mourvèdre 1/3 (100 years) - Syrah 1/3 (80 years)
Wine making and maturing :
Grapes are sorted and picked by hand, maceration from 25 to 30 days, with the control of temperatures, de-stalking, regular release and treading, maturing in new barrels for 18 months before the conditioning in bottles.
Can be tasted from now, will reach its maturity in a few years

I read a blog here at WordPress. I may link it later. Following is my response.
Speaking for the "Patriarchy," penetrative intra-vaginal sex is not mandatory. I can assure you we aren't interested in anything other than mutual respect. We establish partnerships with women interested in what we offer. Among our offers is penetrative intra-vaginal sex. We offer other advantages: mutual support, superior physical strength and stamina, time-independent emotional states, among other traits and advantages whose benefits you ceaselessly dispute. Relationships predicated on the guilt or shame of either party do not interest us. If you would rather not fuck, please take your vaginal discourse proclaiming that "a woman's vagina is not for fucking" elsewhere. The patriarchy has addressed these false and misleading claims for six thousand years and we tire of this dispute. When you are prepared to join with us as you did thousands of years ago and build a civilization from scratch with nothing but your bare hands and the power of your mind, then we may negotiate sexuality, but don't expect us to acquiesce to your demands without a just exchange. We will no more be your slaves than you falsely claim we have made you ours.

Will Hillary Pay Your Tuition?
Yesterday, the Clinton campaign released its latest college proposal re: college cost reform. I tried to email Hillary for comment, but [fill in your own joke here!].
The highlight was that an estimated 80% of middle class families would receive free tuition at state universities.
Will it happen?
Who knows. I'm skeptical that any congress would approve a bill like this, probably because they'd be stuck on one small issue:
Who the heck would PAY for this?
Don't get me wrong, I am 100% in favor of massive reform, but I just can't see how Hillary (Bernie Lite?) could pull this off, any more than I can picture a big wall protecting our borders.
I think student loans are a bigger problem – they are too easy to obtain, and actually end up driving college costs higher, instead of making them more accessible.
How? Colleges have no incentive to reign in their tuition and fees, since the government is paying the bill on behalf of students. Tuition and fees are up 1,100% in the last 25 years (cost of living has increased 300%, by way of comparison).
Then there's the issue of the quality of education, i.e. what is the return the investment for plunking down all that money for tuition. I actually like the concept of some of College Scorecard, which grades colleges on student debt, rates of completion and other factors. But it's imperfect, because it overlooks crucial considerations such as the effort made by students, which of course varies and seems impossible to account for.
My advice? Don't wait for Hillary, Santa Claus or anyone else to save the day.
You need to take matters into your own hands. Get your head out of the sand, maybe it's been there for 15, 16 years, but it's time to realize that things will not just magically work themselves out.
Your best bet to win the high stakes game of college is to arm yourself with knowledge that PAYS…
…and then IMPLEMENT it, so you can rake in huge discounts, and avoid deadly mistakes that can sabotage your eligibility for grants and scholarships.
The average discount offered by colleges is 48.6% – which means that there is a TON of scholarship and grant money out there if you know where to look.
