Peace Restored on 4th Night of
Kenosha Protests
'Riot Police Nowhere to be Found'
Kenosha peaceful on fourth night of protests as riot police & armed militias
stay away after deadly shooting
One day after police say a 17-year-old shot and killed two protesters and
seriously wounded another in Kenosha, Wis., a fourth consecutive night of
protests over the police shooting of Jacob Blake was
smaller and mostly
peaceful. Both police
and the self-declared militia members who were ever-present on Tuesday mostly
stayed away from protesters Wednesday night.
The
night's demonstrations began hours after authorities named
Rusten Sheskey as the officer who shot Blake,
and announced an arrest and
homicide charges for 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, who attended the protest
with a group of armed men who claimed to be protecting a gas station.
Sheskey, who is on administrative leave, has not been charged.
On Wednesday night, a group of about 60 to 100 people gathered in a park that's
surrounded by the courthouse and other government buildings. The group chanted,
and some people spray-painted art promoting peace and healing on the sidewalk.
Although an eight-foot-high fence guarded the courthouse,
the riot police who repeatedly
fired tear gas at protesters Tuesday were nowhere to be found.
Tuesday's night's violence prompted the White House to authorize
sending 2,000
National Guard troops from other states to Wisconsin.
President Donald Trump said Wednesday in a series of tweets that "federal law
enforcement and the National Guard" will be sent to Kenosha to restore law and
order.
The
Wisconsin National Guard
already has 10,000 troops.
Gov. Tony Evers on Tuesday
ordered 250 to Kenosha.
He
doubled the number Wednesday.

Facebook Ignores Kenosha Militia Group's 'Call to
Arms'
Facebook initially failed to remove a Kenosha militia page despite complaints
Once again, the company is facing criticism for
letting people incite violence on its platform.
Facebook
didn't take heed when its users sounded the alarm about a
militia group issuing a "call
to arms" on its platform.
That call to arms came before the violence in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Tuesday
night, which left two people dead and one injured, according to a new report.
Before the shooting, at least two Facebook users flagged a page called "Kenosha
Guard" for inciting violence, according to The Verge. But
the company told users that
the page did not meet the company's criteria for removal.
On Wednesday morning, after violence at the protests already broke out - and
armed militia groups took to the streets - Facebook ended up taking down the
page for violating its policies on dangerous groups.

17-year-old charged with homicide after shooting during Kenosha protests,
authorities say
The shooting came as self-declared
militia members and armed
counterprotesters have
appeared in the city, which is reeling from days of unrest. Authorities have not
said whether Rittenhouse is a member of any of the groups.
Armed civilians - many
wielding AR-15-style rifles - took position near stores and businesses saying
they intended to fill a vacuum left by a law enforcement.
Some had stood near the gas station where Tuesday night's shooting began with a
confrontation just before midnight.

Mitigation Measures Showing Effects
Here Comes Fall
US faces long road on COVID-19 amid signs of improvement
Coronavirus cases nationally are falling from their July peaks and some
hard-hit states are showing signs of improvement, a hopeful sign even as the
country deals with about 1,000 COVID-19 deaths every day. The positive news is
still dwarfed by the negative reality of the pandemic's hold over the country.
Though the situation is not as bad as it was in July, when cases peaked around
70,000 per day, the virus is still circulating around United States at a very
high level, with around 40,000 new cases per day.
Governors in many of the hardest-hit states, such as Arizona, Florida and Texas,
after initially resisting action, put in place measures like closing bars and
allowing local mask mandates, steps that experts say have helped those states
improve.
Experts stressed that some of the improvement is from people starting to take
the virus more seriously and more widespread mask wearing, after early mixed
signals on that front, and that any complacency or letting up could cause
another spike.
Another major question is how bad the fall will be. The coming flu season
combining with the coronavirus, as students go back to school and colder weather
forces more activity indoors into tighter spaces, has led to fears of another
resurgence.
"Just because we're starting to see a decline doesn't mean that we've passed the
point that we can start loosening those restrictions."

COVID Safety Measures Work Against Flu Too!
Southern Hemisphere's Winter "Flu Season Knocked Down"
As flu season nears, some health experts brace for a 'twindemic'
"This could be one of
the worst seasons we've had from a public health perspective, with COVID and flu
coming together. But
it also could be one of
the best flu seasons we've had,"
said
Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention.
U.S.
health officials are pushing Americans to
get
vaccinated against the flu
in record numbers this fall,
so hospitals aren't overwhelmed with a dueling "twindemic."
It's also becoming clear that wearing masks, avoiding crowds and keeping your
distance are protections that are "not specific for COVID.
They're going to work
for any respiratory virus,"
Redfield said.
The evidence: Ordinarily, South Africa sees widespread influenza during the
Southern Hemisphere's winter months of May through August. This year, testing
tracked by the country's
National Institute of
Communicable Diseases is finding almost none. That's unprecedented.

"OSHA is not all hard hats," said Holstein; "there's more to workplace safety." OSHA
can and is regulating cleaning, social distancing and more to keep employees
safe from COVID-19 exposure in the workplace,
she said.
What's more, because the agency has been criticized for
declining to issue emergency standards
and instead favoring recommendations,
state and local
governments have filled that void,
Robertson said; "And you're ending up with this
crazy patchwork. You're
ending up with a huge amount of regulation at the state and local level."

Hurricane Laura Hits Gulf Coast
Hurricane Laura strikes Louisiana as Category 4 storm, battering Lake Charles
area and bringing flood threat
Hundreds of thousands without power after 150 mph
winds slam the gulf coast
Hurricane
Laura caused extensive damage in Lake Charles after making landfall early
Thursday in southwest Louisiana as a Category 4 hurricane. Windows were blown
out, roofs were peeled off and a storm surge flooded many roads and homes.
Brandon Clement, a storm chaser with Live Storms Media, used a drone to survey
the damage in Lake Charles after Hurricane Laura roared through the city.
The storm made landfall
early Thursday as a Category 4 hurricane, with
sustained winds of 150
m.p.h., and weakened
steadily as it swept inland.
Hundreds of thousands
of people were without power.

Cartel Used Dallas Retailer to Launder $10M in
Drug Money
28 Charged in Cartel Money Laundering Scheme
A
Mexican cartel boss and 27 coconspirators
have been charged with
laundering more than
$10 million in drug proceeds through a local clothing retailer.
A federal grand jury charged 28 individuals connected to
Cartel Jalisco Nueva
Generacion - one of Mexico's most violent and powerful drug cartels
- with conspiracy to
launder monetary instruments and other financial, drug, and gun crimes,
including conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, conspiracy to distribute
heroin, and possession of a firearm by an undocumented alien.
According to court documents, Jose Valdovinos Jimenez, a plaza boss who goes by
"La Roca" or "The Rock," allegedly conspired with his codefendants to smuggle
hundreds of kilograms of methamphetamine and heroin across the Mexican border,
distribute the drugs within the United States, launder the proceeds, and then
transfer the money back to CJNG leaders.
At Mr. Jimenez's direction, mid- and upper-level dealers
transported drug
proceeds to Yoli's Western Wear, a clothing retailer located on Buckner
Boulevard in Dallas.
The 23-year-old manager of Yoli's, Ivan Noe Valerio, and his family members then
counted the money and separated it into thousands of transactions, sending it
through a money remitter back to CJNG in Mexico.
If convicted, Mr. Jimenez and Mr. Valero face life in federal prison.
During the course of this investigation, agents seized approximately 700
kilograms of methamphetamine, approximately 80 kilograms of heroin, and
approximately $500,000 in drug proceeds.
Dozens of the charged
defendants have already been arrested.

Victoria's Secret's 'Sex Trafficking Tags'
Video's Go Viral - 3M Hearts on TikTok
Victoria's Secret responds to viral videos claiming its bras track customers
Victoria's Secret has
responded to a wave of videos circulating on social media claiming that the
company has implanted chips inside bras to track customers.
One
TikTok video in June generated nearly three million hearts, and there now
more than
a dozen YouTube videos
making this claim. Some conspiracy theorists have even referred to these
trackers as
"sex
trafficking tags."
According to Victoria's Secret,
these are simply RFID
tags, which are
commonly used in the fashion industry
to track and manage inventory throughout the supply chain. In a statement
provided to Fast Company, a spokeswoman for the company said: "Like many
other retailers, this technology helps us deliver a great store experience by
ensuring we have the right products available for our customers. We only use
this technology in our back room and sales floors to help us manage inventory so
that our associates can efficiently support our customers' needs."
The claim is not new, but it
seems to have found new
life this week
with recently posted
videos, some of which have
attracted thousands of
views on YouTube.
This is just the latest scandal Victoria's Secret has found itself in over the
past few months and years. In February, the New York Times
published an exposé about the toxic workplace culture at the company. Last
year, the
Times revealed how Jeffrey Epstein,
the disgraced financier who committed suicide in prison,
used his relationship
with Victoria's Secret's founder to lure women and abuse them.

Vendor Risk & Your Supply Chain
6 Signs Your Supply Chain Risk Just Shot Up
Risk levels are not steady states. Here are six indications that the danger
posed by your supply chain is headed in the wrong direction.
Supply chains, many stretching around the globe and some made up of tens of
thousands of links, are critical to modern business. Strong supply chains allow
for the economical development of products ranging from stuffed toys to
enterprise applications. Unfortunately, the same supply chains that make
business possible can also make it a far riskier proposition.
Ransomware Attack on a Vendor - When that attack is ransomware, the
bad-sign quotient goes up dramatically because attackers are using the initial
attacks to exfiltrate data and spread laterally -- and sometimes spread
beyond the victim's walled garden.
Lack of Mobile Visibility at a Vendor - "Mobile devices are used across
the entire supply chain, from research to delivery, to increase efficiency and
convenience for employees," Schless says. "Every time an employee walks into
your facility or logs into your network, their mobile device has just as much
access as any other endpoint."
He points out that incorporating a device health-check into mobile-device
management (MDM) implementations is an important step for supply chain vendors
that might be coming into your network perimeter. And even vendors that don't
have direct access to your network should be able to demonstrate that they
understand the state of their mobile devices.
Lack of Transparency at a Supplier - If a supplier is unwilling or unable
to provide transparency into their risks, it's a clear sign that your risk from
that third party has risen by many degrees. The question for many in the supply
chain is not only how transparent they're willing to be, but how transparent
they're able to be.

4 Risk Mitigation Principles for the Remote Workforce
Jeff Schilling of Teleperformance on Risk
Management During COVID-19 Pandemic
Jeff
Schilling, global CISO at Teleperformance, a Paris-based company offering
digitally integrated business services worldwide, describes four principles for
mitigating security risks for the remote workforce during the
COVID-19
pandemic.
Those principles, which he spells out in this video interview with Information
Security Media Group, are:
• Maintain
parity of technical security controls between bricks-and-mortar and
work-from-home environments;
• Change
your business processes to reduce the risks in the shift to a remote workforce;
• Keep
in mind that "cyber threat actors will never let a good crisis go to waste";
• Update
your information security certifications, especially your Payment Card Industry
Report of Compliance.
He also discusses how he recalibrated his own business model to deploy a remote
international workforce of over 180,000 and stresses the need to use caution
when selecting security vendor partners.

services, and not enough companies have deployed multifactor authentication,

Pandemic Impacting the Cannabis Industry
New normal means new challenges for cannabis companies
For the cannabis industry specifically, our new norm means a business
environment in which pandemic health concerns are here to stay, as are the
effects on staffing and customer interactions. Cannabis sales may be
rising in
general, and the industry has secured an "essential" business status to stay
open as other businesses such as bars and casinos are forced to close.
But the overall global
economy is probably going to be depressed far into 2021, if not longer. That
means, that investment capital of all kinds will be more difficult to secure,
even in a strong growth market like cannabis. And when capital is tight, there's
an inclination for the big players to form partnerships and mergers that put
even more competitive pressures on smaller operators.
The digital shift
As states and municipalities enacted stay-at-home orders in the spring,
dispensaries realized the importance of optimizing digital ordering. As POS
stations were cut by half to meet social distancing requirements, transaction
times would need to be reduced to make up for that lost revenue. Utilizing
online platforms such as I Heart Jane is one way to reduce transaction times by
up to 50%.
Brick-and-mortar: Don't count it out
Even with digital sales increasing because of the
pandemic, walk-up traffic at stores still drives the vast majority of sales, and
the in-store experience cannot be left as an afterthought.

Chicago, IL: 3 Charged With Selling Stolen Goods From Store 'Completely Looted'
of $5 Million in Merchandise
Three people in court Wednesday were accused of selling merchandise stolen
earlier in August from a Saint Laurent that had been "completely looted" of $5
million worth of items, prosecutors said. The merchandise - among 1,000 total
items taken from the Gold Coast store - includes a $2,000 purse, an $800 pair of
boots and sunglasses, Cook County prosecutors said.
Each was allegedly sold
by the defendants on online marketplaces to undercover officers who arrested
them during the in-person transaction.
Rolond Alexander tried to sell a pair of boots he claimed he got from a "crackhead"
after trading a bottled of liquor for them, Assistant State's Attorney Lorraine
Scaduto said. The boots had allegedly been looted Aug. 10 from Saint Laurent at
11 E. Walton.

Shootings & Deaths
Las Vegas, NV: Metro Police investigating deadly shooting involving Security
Guard at 7-Eleven
The
shooting occurred late Wednesday night at the 7-Eleven on Las Vegas Boulevard
near Nellis Air Force Base. Metro Police say a security guard pulled the trigger
after getting into a struggle with a man who was refused entry to the store. The
security guard was at the store to limit the number of people in the store at
the same time. Lt. Ray Spencer said it is unclear why the man in his 50s and his
wife were not let in the store while other shoppers were. The man did enter the
store and that's when the security guard and a store clerk struggled with the
man. "In front of the store, there is additional pushing and shoving that takes
place at which time the security officer fires one round, striking the victim,
causing his death at the front of the store," Spencer said. Metro detectives are
talking with witnesses and reviewing video. The security guard is at Metro
headquarters being interviewed.

Energy is the primary force behind success and without it mediocrity or failure
is almost guaranteed. The ability to move things forward and influence change
requires energy and there's a direct correlation to the amount of it and to the
degree of success. It's great to start off energized and gung ho about a project
or initiative, but it's critical to maintain the energy thru to completion. As
one senior executive has said, "there's no bad plan -- it's always a matter of
execution" and execution is all about energy. So when you think you've lost your
energy, take a break, do something different, and give your mind a chance to
re-energize. Because the worst thing you can do is to try to execute without it.
