Six Month Anniversary Of Las Vegas Shooting This Week; Motive Still Unknown
On the six month anniversary of the Shooting, we recognize the victims of the shooting. Part II of the Hidden Truth Show's exclusive interview with the shooter's brother, Bruce Paddock, in his first ever sit down interview about the shooting.
ENCINO, Calif. (PRWEB) April 03, 2018
This week marks the six month anniversary of the Las Vegas Shooting and incredibly we still do not know the reason Stephen Paddock opened fire and killed 58 people in Las Vegas, in the largest mass shooting in American history, or whether he acted alone. The Hidden Truth Show (http://www.hiddentruthshow.com), a podcast by RealKast media (http://www.realkast.com) which has as its mission to determine the who, what, and why of the Las Vegas Shooting, has been investigating the shooting for over three months and has produced six episodes on the shooting. Most recently, the show landed an exclusive, first ever interview with Bruce Paddock, the brother of the alleged shooter. The interview was conducted by host Jim Breslo, a former civil rights attorney. Breslo is available for interviews in order to provide expert analysis of the shooting investigation and to discuss his interview of Bruce Paddock. He has completed over 30 interviews on the subject and has released six episodes of Hidden Truth: Las Vegas Shooter thus far.
Recent developments include Mandalay Bay’s released surveillance video, which shows how so many bags were moved into the room. Interestingly, however, the released footage omits any images of Mandalay Bay employees actually handling the bags. Why? In addition, while none of the footage shows Paddock with any potential suspect, only about five minutes, out of hundreds of hours of tape was released. Further, there were no cameras in the hallways so we do not know who may have entered or exited his room. Another recent development is our interview of brother Bruce Paddock, where we learn that both brothers have debilitating back issues. This, along with gambling away his fortune and losing his girlfriend, may have been the recipe for a breakdown that led to the shooting. Hidden Truth also learned that Stephen was meticulous about keeping his guns clean, and may have regularly brought guns into the Mandalay Bay. We also learned that Stephen had no contact with his conman father after being abandoned by him at a young age.
Among the many still-unanswered questions are:· What happened to the missing hard drive?
· If he acted alone, why did they find seven cell phones?
· Why 18 guns in the room for one person? And why did he only use two?
· How did he make all of his money? He was an IRS accountant. His acquisition of 55 guns in the year prior to the shooting, ownership of two private planes, running lots of money through Vegas machines, and possession of child pornography, all raise interesting questions about what he was up to.
· Is there an ISIS connection as they claim?
· Did Mandalay Bay have in place any extra security in light of the concert they were promoting outside across the street with 22K people?
· Why did the police provide so many conflicting timelines, and why did it take them over one hour to breach the door to Paddock’s room?
Clips of the Bruce Paddock interview are available upon request. A sample clip is provided here: https://youtu.be/cilkkTmfQf0 . The full interview can be heard now on the podcast Hidden Truth Show on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, other podcast players and at http://www.hiddentruthshow.com/las-vegas-shooter/episodes/.

Irvine Family Heir to Wed Susan Jeske, Former Ms. America® In Historic Wedding
James M. Irvine and Susan R. Jeske have announced their engagement and will be married in the Spring of 2018 at the Irvine Ranch Historic Park.
IRVINE, Calif. (PRWEB) April 03, 2018
James M. Irvine and Susan R. Jeske have announced their engagement and will be married in the Spring of 2018 at the Irvine Ranch Historic Park.
James Myford Irvine is the youngest grandson to the late James Irvine II who inherited about 115,000 acres in what is now Orange County, California and formed The Irvine Company and the James Irvine Foundation. He is the son of the late Myford and Gloria Irvine. Myford Irvine was the President of The Irvine Company for eleven years and the President of the James Irvine Foundation for 24 years beginning when it was established in 1937 until his death in 1959. In 2017 the James Irvine Foundation awarded over 90 million dollars to worthy charities in California.
James M. Irvine spent 14 years (1978-1992) involved in Broadcast Network Television and was the Founder and President of Orange Coast Video which was a successful network television mobile facilities company for high end, high demand, live network television productions. His clients included: ABC, NBC, CBS Sports, Summer Olympics 1984, Boxing, Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards, Emmy Awards and the Rose Parade to name a few. He also was an active partner in a 41-acre winery in Napa Valley California, that produced over 30,000 cases of award winning wines. Because of his fascination with trains, he was an active partner in the Arizona and California Railroad. Currently he is a business man and real estate investor.
Susan R. Jeske is the daughter of the late Charles and Denise Jeske of Littleton, Colorado. She was crowned Ms. America® 1997 at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas winning $75,000 in cash and prizes. Some of her other titles include: Miss Orange County 1987, Miss Brea/Fullerton 1986 and Ms. California State 1996. In 1999 she purchased the Ms. America® Pageant and became its CEO. Since then she has grown the pageant into an institution that attracts high-achieving women from all walks of life to vie for the title and put it to philanthropic use. In 1993, Jeske set the still unbroken World Record, published in the Guinness Book of Records, for singing the National Anthem at the most events in a 24-hour period. She has sung all over the world and for 7 United States Presidents. In 2004, Susan was honored with the Presidential Service Lifetime Achievement Award from the President of the United States for her lifetime contributions to charity and volunteerism. Throughout her career she has been a spokesperson for several Fortune 500 companies including Hyundai Motor America and traveled worldwide to launch a natural skin care line called True Elements for Nikken International.
The couple plans to marry at the Irvine Ranch Historic Park (Jamboree Road and Irvine Boulevard) which is where the original Irvine family home was and is now the Katie Wheeler Library (named after James’s Aunt). James was born and raised in the home as a young boy. He will be the last Irvine that lived in the mansion, who will be married there. The park is part of the OC Parks family of historic parks and is the original headquarters of the Irvine Ranch started by James Irvine II. The 16-acre property was donated by The Irvine Company to the County of Orange and made into a historic park for all to enjoy. In 2015, six of the historic structures were restored and a dedication ceremony was held with the Irvine family members present.

It is also the fourth ISO certificate for The Venetian Macao, which already holds an ISO 20121:2012 certification for its event sustainability management system, ISO 9001:2008 for the quality management system of its convention and exhibition services, and ISO 22000:2005 for its food safety management system.

With over a year of training, standardising and implementation of the quality management system, the teams within our department are beginning to reap the benefits of their efforts.

With the successful rollout of the ISO 9001:2015 standard, this provides the base to launch further facilities initiatives."
Naylor's resort facilities team, which counts over 1,500 team members, is the first in Macao to meet the ISO 9001:2015 standard, making Sands China the first integrated resort operator in Macao to earn the certification.
As part of a family of standards overseen by the International Organisation for Standardisation, ISO 9001:2015 sets out the criteria for a quality management system and can be used by any organisation, large or small, regardless of its field of activity. The standard is based on a number of quality management principles including a strong customer focus, the motivation and implication of top management, the process approach and continual improvement. Using ISO 9001:2015 helps ensure that customers get consistent, good quality products and services.

Adele got ordained to marry her two best friends
Comedian Alan Carr said Adele "got ordained" to marry him and his partner Paul Drayton in January.
The 41-year-old TV personality said the "Hello" hitmaker insisted to organise the D-day and got the duo married in the back garden of her Los Angeles home, Femalefirst reported.
"We got married in Adele's back garden in Los Angeles. She's known me and Paul for ages and she said she wants to do everything, so she did everything. She got ordained and married us and then she did the whole day. She is the kindest, sweetest, most loveliest people I've ever met," Carr said on This Morning show.
He said Adele flew the couple to Las Vegas to see Celine Dion perform and even sang "our first dance".
"It was the best day of my life. She's the most generous, I can't thank her enough. It was lovely and I just want to tell everyone. Flowers, three-course meal and she just planned it all and it was the best day," Carr added.
Adele also confirmed the news on Instagram where she posted her photograph dressed in pearly white robes standing with her back to a wall of white roses, probably one of the clicks from the wedding.
"Seeing as the cats out the bag. I married two of my best friends in January. You know me any excuse to dress up..." she captioned the picture and tagged Carr.

The YouTube HQ shooting is a sad, dark twist in a long-running saga about 'demonetisation' on the video site (GOOG)
· *A woman shot three people, then herself, at YouTube's California headquarters on Tuesday.*· *Police identified the shooter as 39-year-old Nasim Najafi Aghdam from San Diego.*
· *Aghdam's father said she had often criticised YouTube for apparent censorship, and she complained online that videos she posted didn't make much money from ads.*
· *There is no justification for Aghdam's actions, but the shooting comes only two months after YouTube implemented policies that made it harder for smaller creators to make money from their videos.*
· *Smaller creators, angry at the new rules, have called the policy "demonetisation."*
· *YouTube has to strike a difficult balance between policing its content and keeping creators happy.*
--------------------Police identified a 39-year-old woman who shot three people and herself at or near YouTube's headquarters in California as Nasim Najafi Aghdam of San Diego, California.
Aghdam had a strong online presence with multiple YouTube channels, websites, and social media accounts dedicated to her various interests: bodybuilding, vegan activism, crafts, and free speech. As of Tuesday night, all of her social media accounts on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube were suspended.
A website, nasimesabz.com, is still live.
According to Aghdam's father, she had strongly criticised YouTube for apparently censoring her videos online.
There is, clearly, no justification for Aghdam's actions. But she referenced an ongoing debate about major changes to YouTube's policies over the last two years. And the shooting directly illustrates how tough it is for YouTube to implement substantial changes to a site where anyone — including criminals and conspiracy theorists — can post content and gain a significant following.
*YouTube has tightened up its rules and made it tougher for creators to make money over the last 2 years*
Through a series of rule changes, YouTube has made it more difficult for some creators to make money from their videos over the last year.
The site changed its rules in February so that creators needed at least 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours in watchtime in order to continue making money from ads against their videos. Small creators at the time complained it would be difficult to meet the new threshold. Minority creators also felt they would be disproportionately affected by the changes. They new rules are widely referred to as YouTube's "demonetisation" policy.
YouTube also tightened up its rules around appropriate content and hate speech after a series of outrages including:
· YouTube star PewDiePie using the "n" word in a video;
· The Times uncovering disturbing videos of children, as well as hate speech;
· YouTube promoting conspiracy theories after the Las Vegas shooting;
· and Logan Paul posting footage of a dead body in Japan's suicide forest.
Finally, YouTube is trying to crack down on spammy, low-quality videos.
All of this means that YouTube has become more proactive when it comes to downgrading promoted videos that might be offensive, adding age-restriction filters, and removing ads from offensive or poor-quality videos.
The changes inflamed creators such as Aghdam who already harboured suspicions that YouTube was censoring them in some way.
Try typing "YouTube censorship" into YouTube's search box, and you will come across an entire conspiracy theory subgenre. Ironically, creators ratchet up tens of thousands of views with videos complaining they are being censored in some way. Usually, it is right-wing commentators, who are actually pretty prominent on the site.
One video that shows up prominently on that search is by vegan activist channel Bite Size Vegan. It is titled "I'm Being Censored — YouTube's War Against Vegans" and shows activist Emily Moran Barwick claiming that YouTube added age restrictions to one of her videos because it contained graphic footage.
Aghdam, who claimed to be vegan, links to this video from her web page alongside complaints that her content had also been "filtered" to stop them getting views. Since Aghdam's channels are now deleted, Business Insider was unable to verify whether her content had indeed been restricted. According to BuzzFeed, she had claimed videos showing her exercising had been age-restricted by "close-minded" YouTube employees.
The incident is a sobering reminder that popular platforms like YouTube generate strong feeling among their users, and that outrage over high-level decisions can be intense. The platform has millions of users, and a small number are extremists or mentally ill, and that outrage reaches them, too. To date, YouTube and other tech firms have tried to avoid policing content posted to their platform — and Tuesday's events make it easy to see why.

Cloudian to Demonstrate IP-Based Media Workflows with Cisco at NAB Show 2018
SAN MATEO, Calif., April 04, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cloudian, the innovation leader in enterprise object storage systems, today announced that it will team with Cisco at the 2018 NAB Show in Las Vegas, April 7-12, to demonstrate IP-based media workflows that create a flexible, dynamic production environment. The demonstration will take place in the Cisco booth at NAB, located in South Hall, SU8502CM.Cloudian will demonstrate an IP infrastructure-based media production workflow that utilizes its HyperStore software-defined storage system running on a Cisco UCS S3260 Storage Server. HyperStore will be demonstrated as a limitlessly-scalable archive for Cisco’s solution, which also includes Vizrt’s Viz One Media Asset Manager and an all-IP video-production workflow management system from NewTek. The workflow will also feature Cloudian HyperFile, which provides seamless storage connectivity for legacy applications.
“Media companies need agile production environments to help them produce content faster and in larger data formats, while ensuring that media is quickly searchable, protected and indefinitely available,” said Roger Sherwood, director of business development, Media Segment, Service Provider Business, Cisco. “We are excited to demonstrate our collaboration with Cloudian at NAB, where we will illuminate how HyperStore architecture complements Cisco’s IP-based media workflow to benefit media customers.”
HyperStore is a software-defined object storage solution that allows users to start small and grow to hundreds of petabytes on-premise simply by adding nodes.
“Today’s rapidly evolving media environment demands agile workflows that can quickly adapt to changing needs,” said Jon Toor, CMO of Cloudian “Cloudian’s limitlessly-scalable software-defined storage on the Cisco platform completes the IP-based architecture to help media companies realize the benefits of an automated, video-aware network that can prioritize media-production workloads to meet dynamic requirements.”
During the NAB show, Cloudian will also demonstrate a workflow for media that enables customers to rapidly store, protect and search petabyte-scale media archives at booth SL6321, located in the South Hall. The demonstration will detail how cloud-based tools can be used with Cloudian’s limitlessly scalable storage system to enrich metadata and enable rapid media search using Google-like tools. Throughout the conference, Cloudian will also feature speaking sessions at its booth from technology partners, resellers and customers, including Cisco, Microsoft, Quantum, Vizrt, WWT, Evolphin, File Catalyst, SME, eMAM, Data Frameworks, WIZR, and others. In addition, Cloudian customers WGBH Boston, Vox Media and a national weekly late-night comedy program will discuss how they built private cloud archives to accelerate workflows and leverage metadata on Tuesday, April 10, at 3:20 p.m. in Room N234-256. WGBH will also present on its efforts to modernize its archive with HyperStore on Wednesday, April 11 at 4:20 p.m. in room N256.
