Our visit to the La Flor Dominicana booth at the 2025 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show continues an annual tradition for the Cigar Coop Coalition team. This year, the difference is that the LFD sales team has a new Vice President in Litto Gomez Jr, and a new branding and marketing Vice President in Eddy Guerra. Since sales is a primary activity at the Trade Show, this was Litto Jr's show. Watching Litto Jr, he handled his responsibilities with poise and confidence. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to sit down with Litto Jr. for our annual interview.

Episode 189 of the #LovinLebanon Podcast features a pair of young Lebanon firefighters who have a special connection. Katie Pallikan and Kurt Keller went through the academy together and have been friends ever since. Now, they share the pride of being on the Lebanon Fire Department. The pair shares what makes LFD so special, even after a couple embarrassing moments during training...that they're willing to share. ;)  

Jonathan Carney, the former Vice President of Sales for La Flor Dominicana, joins Smoke Night LIVE to make a major announcement. Earlier this summer, Carney surprised many by leaving his position at LFD, sparking widespread speculation about his next move. In this episode, he reveals all the details about his new role.

Seine Ernennung verzögerte sich etwas, doch nun ist der niedersächsische Landesdatenschutzbeauftragte Denis Lehmkemper fast ein Jahr im Amt. Im c't-Datenschutz-Podcast spricht er mit Holger und Joerg über über den Prozess seiner Berufung und dieses erste Jahr. Direkt nach Amtsantritt habe er eine "gut aufgestellte Behörde vorgefunden" und "erst einmal viel zugehört". Lehmkemper vertritt eine kooperative Linie. Seinen Worten zufolge möchte er Dinge ermöglichen und lösungsorientiert arbeiten. In der Episode erläutert er beispielsweise, wie seine Behörde zum Ergebnis kam, dass Microsoft Teams in der niedersächsischen Landesverwaltung anders als in einigen anderen Bundesländern eingesetzt werden darf. Man habe gemäß der Linie der Datenschutzkonferenz mit Microsoft für Niedersachsen die Datenschutzvereinbarungen desn Konzerns angepasst. Um Lösungen für den Einsatz von KI von Wirtschaft und Verwaltung im Bundesland zu finden, hat Lehmkemper einen eigenen Expertenkreis eingerichtet. Zu den zwölf Teilnehmern zählen Vertreter aus der niedersächsischen Wirtschaft und Wissenschaft, der öffentlichen Verwaltung und Datenschutzexperten aus dem gesellschaftlichen Umfeld. Sie sollen "technische und rechtliche Gestaltungsvorschläge" erarbeiten. Dieser von Lehmkemper auch KI-Rat genannte Kreis wird sich zum ersten Mal am 14. August treffen.

One of the big stories of the 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show was La Flor Dominicana celebrating 30 years in the cigar business for Litto and Ines Gomez. Given La Flor Dominicana had released milestone cigars for the 20th and 25th anniversary, it was no surprise that there was a 30th-anniversary cigar, LFD 30 Years. This year, we caught up with Litto and Tony Gomez to discuss this important milestone. PCA 2024 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-sBB

Es wird langsam zur Tradition im c't-Datenschutz-Podcast: Ehemalige Behördenleiter kommen gerne als Gäste, um die High- und Lowlights ihrer Amtszeit gemeinsam mit Holger und Joerg Revue passieren zu lassen. Und das ohne jene Redebeschränkungen, die ihnen ihre Position auferlegt hatte. In Episode 98 plaudert die ehemalige Landesdatenschutzbeauftrage Niedersachsens Barbara Thiel aus dem datenschutzrechtlichen Nähkästchen. Thiel amtierte von 2015 bis Mitte 2023 und erlebte den Awareness-Wandel, den die DSGVO mit sich brachte, als Behördenleiterin an vorderster Front mit. In Podcast erzählt sie, wie der Start verlief, welche Schwerpunkte sie sich aussuchte und auf welche Widerstände sie im Laufe ihrer Amtszeit stieß. Thiel berichtet von wenig bekannten Verfahren, ordnet aber auch spektakuläre Bußgelder ein, die sie verhängt hat. Im Gespräch bemängelt sie, dass es zu wenig Ambitionen gibt, die Datenschutzregulierung auf deutscher Ebene zu vereinheitlichen und in den europäischen Kontext einzuhegen. An dieser Stelle will sie sich ihren Aussagen zufolge auch künftig engagieren. Erstmals schildert Thiel außerdem öffentlich ihre Motivation dazu, gegen die Ernennung ihres Nachfolgers gerichtlich vorzugehen. Sie kritisiert, dass ihr Nachfolger und CDU-Politiker Dennis Lehmkemper mittels einer Absprache zwischen den Koalitionsfraktionen SPD und Grünen einerseits und der CDU-Landtagsfraktion andererseits vorgeschlagen wurde. Es habe keine Ausschreibung gegeben. Das Verwaltungsgericht Hannover wies Thiels Klage ab, am 15. September schließlich bestätigte auch das Oberverwaltungsgericht Lüneburg, dass Lehmkemper entgegen Thiels Auffassung ernannt werden kann, was Tags darauf auch geschah. Thiel betont im Podcast, dass sich ihre Klage keinesfalls gegen ihren Nachfolger gerichtet habe. Vielmehr vermutet sie beim Ernennungsverfahren in Niedersachsen einen Verstoß gegen Artikel 53 DSGVO, der nicht nur ein transparentes Ernennungsverfahren verlange, sondern auch die erforderliche Sachkunde und Qualifikation des Bewerbers fordere. Schließlich sei allerdings zu ihrem Bedauern in der Sache nicht einmal entschieden worden.

Die Struktur der Datenschutzaufsicht gilt in Deutschland als so komplex wie in keinem anderen EU-Staat. Grund dafür ist das föderale Prinzip, dem die Aufsicht unterliegt. Insgesamt 17 Landesbehörden wachen darüber, dass öffentliche und private Stellen die Datenschutz-Grundverordnung (DSGVO) befolgen - und legen dabei bisweilen höchst unterschiedliche Maßstäbe an. Auch die Besetzung der Behördenleitung vollzieht jedes Bundesland anders, was immer wieder zu Verwerfungen führt. Das Land Sachsen-Anhalt beispielsweise sucht sage und schreibe seit fünf Jahren einen Nachfolger für den 2018 ausgeschiedenen Landesdatenschutzbeauftragten (LfD) Harald von Bose. Aus verschiedenen Gründen scheiterte die Wahl eines neuen LfDs immer wieder im Landtag. Diese Posse zieht sich bis heute: Zuletzt hat Ende Juni der aktuelle Kandidat Daniel Neugebauer keine Mehrheit erhalten, obwohl er von der Regierungskoalition aus CDU, SPD und FDP vorgeschlagen war; Und, obwohl die Landesregierung im April umstrittenerweise sogar das Wahlverfahren vereinfacht hatte, indem sie das Ausschreibungsverfahren abschaffte. In Niedersachsen war der neue LfD Denis Lehmkemper vom Landtag bereits gewählt und schon fast im Amt, als seine Vorgängerin Barbara Thiel im Juni per Eilantrag gegen seine Ernennung klagte. Thiel kritisiert, dass ihr Nachfolger und CDU-Politiker Lehmkemper mittels einer Absprache zwischen den Koalitionsfraktionen SPD und Grünen einerseits und der CDU-Landtagsfraktion andererseits vorgeschlagen wurde. Es habe keine Ausschreibung gegeben, obwohl die DSGVO eine Auswahl nach Qualifikation, nicht nach Parteibuch verlange. Das Verwaltungsgericht Hannover wies Thiels Klage ab, derzeit liegt das Verfahren in nächster Instanz beim Oberverwaltungsgericht Lüneburg. Nur, wenn auch dort die Klage abgewiesen wird, kann Lehmkemper die Behördenleitung wohl noch im September übernehmen. Für den c't-Datenschutz-Podcast war es höchste Zeit, sich einmal den Verfahren zur Ernennung von LfDs zu widmen. Unterstützung holten sich Heise-Justiziar Joerg Heidrich und Redakteur Holger Bleich an der Hochschule Hannover: Fabian Schmieder forscht und lehrt dort seit 2015 als Professor für Medienrecht mit Schwerpunkt Urheber- und Datenschutzrecht. Im Podcast erläutert er, welche Vorgaben der einschlägige Artikel 53 DSGVO zu Auswahlverfahren, Transparenz und Qualifikation von Aufsichtsbehördenleitern enthält. Es entsteht in der Episodeeine lebendige Diskussion zu den verschiedenen Verfahren in den Bundesländern. Schmieder weist darauf hin, dass die EU selbst ihren Datenschutzbeauftragten über eine Findungskommission ermittelt, die mindestens drei Bewerber vorschlagen muss. Er regt an, derartige Verfahren auch in den Bundesländern einzuführen und verweist unter anderem auf das in Artikel 33 Grundgesetz festgeschriebene Prinzip der Bestenauslese. Das demokratische Wahlverfahren durch die Landesparlamente hält Schmieder für gut, gibt aber zu Bedenken, dass es dabei immer die Gefahr von fehlenden Mehrheiten gibt - siehe Sachsen-Anhalt.

Was wenige Hörerinnen und Hörer wissen dürften: Im August 2020 war der Heise-Verlag, genauer die Heise Medien GmbH & Co. KG, ins Visier der Datenschutzaufsicht des Landes Niedersachsen geraten - also der für den in Hannover ansässigen Verlag zuständigen Behörde. Die Landesdatenschutzbeauftragte (LfD) kritisierte die Art und Weise, wie heise online Einwilligungen zum Setzen von First- und Third-Party-Cookies abfragt. Dabei ging es um die optische Gestaltung des sogenannten Consent-Frameworks ebenso wie um das alternative Angebot eines Tracking-freien, aber dann kostenpflichtigen "Pur-Abos". Der Verlag hat die Kritik angenommen und in einem intensiven Austausch mit der Behörde Änderungen vorgenommen sowie Lösungen erarbeitet. Im Dezember 2022 war ein wichtiger Zwischenschritt erfolgt, doch erst im April 2023 zeigte sich die Behörde vollständig zufrieden mit der auf heise online eingesetzen Einwilligungseinholung für Cookies. Im Mai schließlich kamen alle Verfahren zum Abschluss, die Lösung auf heise online wurde abschließend als rechtskonform erklärt. Viele weitere Großverlage haben den Prozess, den man vielleicht als "Musterverfahren" bezeichnen kann, aufmerksam verfolgt und stehen im Austausch mit den technisch und juristisch Verantwortlichen bei Heise. Zwei dieser Verantwortlichen sind Verlagsjustiziar Joerg Heidrich sowie Sebastian Hilbig. Sebastian ist als Technischer Leiter (CTO) bei Heise Medien für die Weiterentwicklung der gesamten digitalen Infrastruktur zuständig. Zu seinem Verantwortungsbereich zählen die Web-Entwicklung, das IT-Systemmanagement und die Produktion. In der Auslegungssache erläutert er zunächst, was Cookies genau sind und welche Problematiken mit ihnen einhergehen. Anschließend arbeitet er zusammen mit Joerg und Holger das Verfahren auf und schildert die Knackpunkte, die auch technischer Art waren. In der Rubrik "Bußgeld der Woche" geht es diesmal außerdem ausgerechnet um ein Bußgeld, dass die Landesdatenschutzbeauftragte Niedersachsens gegen eine Privatperson verhängt hat. Mehrere weibliche Jugendliche hatten den Eindruck, in der Innenstadt von einer männlichen Person verfolgt und fotografiert zu werden. Eine Kontrolle des Smartphones durch die Polizei hatte anschließen ergeben, dass die Betroffenen der gezielte Fokus mehrerer Fotografien waren. Sie informierte die LfD, die im Fotografieren auf der Straße eine unerlaubte Datenerhebung sah. Kritiker befürchten nun bereits das Ende der Streetphotography. Was ist dran? Hinweis in eigener Sache: Die Auslegungssache geht in eine kurze Sommerpause. Die nächste Episode 90 ist für den 11. August 2023 geplant.

In Folge 34 haben wir die Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz in Niedersachsen Barbara Thiel zu Gast. Andreas Lewald und Martin Schirmbacher sprechen mit Frau Thiel über den Ablauf ihrer Amtszeit als Datenschutzbeauftragte und wie es wohl weiter geht, Ihre Erwartungen an die DSGVO und inwieweit diese erfüllt wurden.

Schließlich geht es um das europäische Kohärenzverfahren und die Bußgeldpraxis der irischen Datenschutzbehörde. Frau Thiel erklärt, wo es knirscht in der Zusammenarbeit zwischen Europäischen Datenschutzausschuss (EDSA) und der Irish DPC und wie es um mögliche Leilinien des EDSA zur Höhe von Bußgeldern steht.

The West Coast Bottleneck with Brian Rice Brian Rice and Joe Lynch discuss the west coast bottleneck. Brian is the CEO of Dray Depot, a 3PL out of Chicago area that focuses on the drayage market. About Brian Rice Brian is the President and CEO of Dray Depot, a 3PL out of Chicago focusing on the drayage market. He has been in the logistics industry for over 10 years and has learned and experienced the ups, downs, and changes in the industry during that time. He started on the ground level as a carrier representative and made his way through the carrier, customer, and leadership sides of the business. He brings a great wealth of knowledge and experience having been in the trenches. Given this extensive knowledge, Brian has put his plans into play and seeing success in drayage. Brian and his team at Dray Depot are taking the industry by storm with some very exciting moves and further plans for a $36 million project to expand into cold storage in the southeast. Brian is a born and raised Chicagoan and loves Chicago sports. He is married with a 5 year old son, 4 year old daughter, and his fur babies that keep him on to go! About Dray Depot Dray Depot is an employee owned and operated third party logistics company that specializes in drayage and transloading services. The growing congestion and the resulting demurrage at the ports was a call to arms for our team, so we meticulously built a bullet-proof network of carrier partners and transloading facilities at every port and rail in the United States, consisting of 5k partners in our network and growing. Our mission is to keep the demurrage money in our customers pockets and away from the ports, our motto is “DON'T LET THE PORTS WIN!”. We have been accomplishing this at an astounding rate by monitoring our partner carrier's ever-changing loading schedules for available drivers and assigning them to our customer's containers to ensure they are being pulled prior to LFD, even on short notice. Key Takeaways: The West Coast Bottleneck Brian Rice is the Chief Executive Officer at Dray Depot, a Chicago based drayage and transloading provider that services all U.S. ports and rails. In the podcast interview Brian shares his insights on the shipment delays on the West Coast that are wreaking havoc on retail, e-commerce, and production supply chains. Los Angeles is the largest port in the United States and, together with Long Beach a bit further south, account for around 30 percent of trade entering and exiting the United States. China, Canada, Mexico, Japan, and Germany are the top 5 exporters to the USA. The US imported the most goods from Canada until 2007 when China replaced our neighbor to the north. In 2019, these five countries supplied 48% of the $2.5 trillion in U.S. imports of goods. The 5 biggest US importers are Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Lowes, and Ashley Furniture. Click the link to see the top 100 US importers. In late May 2021, the Executive Director of the Port of Los Angeles stated, “We are in the seventh month of an unparalleled import surge Stuck at home during the pandemic, Americans decided to buy lots of consumer goods. The surge in ships arriving from Asia put West Coast ports under stress, which started in November and thus far has continued through into the summer months. While American consumers demand went up, transportation and logistics companies struggled to keep up. Employees stayed home because 1.) Fear of COVID, 2.) Kids were home, 3.) Government checks Meanwhile USA exports dropped because of supply chain shortages, COVID related production delays In addition, the shipping container shortage and the block Suez Canal caused supply chains disruptions. The West Coast bottleneck is slowly opening up, but will most likely last until 2022. Shippers, especially those who rely on Christmas sales must work with their 3PLs to find alternative solutions.

FDA连续批准2个治疗胃肠道间质瘤的靶向药 Nature Review 肠易激综合征的中饮食疗法的循证医学证据和机制的见解Science子刊 生活方式和遗传因素使亚洲人易患胃癌阿伐普替尼（Avapritinib）胃肠道间质瘤（GIST）是胃肠道最常见的间叶细胞肿瘤，目前普遍认为是是由编码酪氨酸激酶受体蛋白基因（KIT）突变、或血小板源性生长因子受体 α（PDGFRα）基因激活突变所诱发。其中以KIT突变最常见，占80%；PDGFRα突变占10%，PDGFRα外显子18 D842V是最常见突变，与伊马替尼耐药相关；还有10%的患者缺少KIT或PDGFRα突变，称为野生型胃肠道间质瘤。阿伐普替尼（Avapritinib）是一种高效、选择性、口服生活性的KIT和PDGFRα抑制剂。2020年1月9日，FDA批准Avapritinib用于治疗经过基因检测确认的PDGFRα18外显子突变的不可切除（无法通过手术切除）或转移性（癌细胞扩散至身体其他部位）胃肠道间质瘤患者。《NAVIGATOR研究：阿伐普替尼治疗PDGFRα D842V基因突变的、晚期胃肠道间质瘤的研究》Lancet Oncology，2020年7月 (1)NAVIGATOR研究是一项两部分、开放标签、剂量递增和剂量扩大的1阶段研究。这篇文章对PDGFRA D842V突变的患者进行单独分析，并报道了研究结果。研究纳入无法手术切除的、胃肠道间质瘤患者，其中56人携带PDGFRα D842V突变，其中20位患者进入剂量递增组（即从30mg qd逐渐加量至最大耐受剂量），36位患者进入剂量扩大组（即使用最大耐受剂量）。最大耐受剂量为400mg qd，推荐剂量为300mg qd。中位随访15·9个月，在PDGFRα D842V突变的56名患者中，9%完全缓解，79%部分缓解。治疗相关严重不良反应最常见的是贫血。在30-400mg qd的剂量下，没有观察到药物毒性；600mg qd时，两名患者出现剂量相关的不良反应。结论：阿伐普替尼在晚期PDGFRα D842V突变的胃肠道间质肿瘤患者中具有初步的抗肿瘤活性。瑞普替尼（ripretinib） 瑞普替尼（ripretinib）是一种对广泛的KIT和PDGFRA基因突变激酶抑制剂。2020年5月，FDA批准瑞普替尼（ripretinib）用于晚期胃肠道间质瘤的四线治疗。《INVICTUS研究：瑞普替尼治疗晚期胃肠间质肿瘤的3期试验》Lancet Oncology，2020年7月 (2)这项双盲、随机、安慰剂对照的第三期研究中，纳入晚期、进展性胃肠间质肿瘤患者129人，既往均使用过伊马替尼、舒尼替尼和瑞格拉非尼在内的治疗。患者随机分入瑞普替尼 150mg qd或安慰剂组，随机分配到安慰剂组的患者在疾病进展时允许转到瑞普替尼组。双盲期，瑞普替尼组和安慰剂组的中位无进展生存期分别为6.3个月和1.0个月（风险比0.15，p < 0.0001）。最常见的严重不良反应包括脂肪酶升高、高血压、疲劳和低磷血症，两组发生率相似。结论：瑞普替尼显著提高晚期胃肠道间质瘤患者的无进展生存期。乙型肝炎急性和慢性乙型肝炎感染均刻有不同的临床表现。急性期，临床表现可从亚临床、或无黄疸型肝炎至黄疸型肝炎，有时还会出现爆发性肝炎（

Today's podcast guest is Russell Abdullah, Head of Strategy and Planning -Display Division at Samsung Electronics America says that Samsung got interested in digital out of home when it saw how out of home advertising boosted store visits.  Here are the highlights from Russell's interview. Review Samsung's history with out of home. Russell Abdullah, Head of Strategy and Planning, Display Division, Samsung Electronics America Samsung is the #6 most recognized brand in the world…The way specifically Samsung got involved with the out of home space…was during the Galaxy S9 launch when they actually started to adopt that ad delivery protocol.  And what they had noticed from an ad and marketing perspective was that by implementing programmatic advertising digital out of home they saw an 8% life in consideration, a 6% lift in purchasing intent but most importantly a 15% lift in in-store visits…we saw a 15% lift in in-store visits by just putting a billboard or a kiosk signage in the right place serving the ad at the right time.  15% is a big deal for us….If you think about the new phones, the Galaxy S20, it's been a bit of time since we took our first foray as a media buyer.  And so over the course of the last 3-4 years we've started to think about the value proposition that we can have to our end customers on the display side…out of home LED or indoor LFD or hybrids…and we wanted to start considering how can we increase the value proposition in a very crowded marketplace… What trends are you seeing in the out of home industry? The biggest trend we are starting to see is the digitization of billboards…what you've seen is…roughly a 38% increase from 6,400 to 8,800 between 2016 and 2019 while at the same time you saw a 7% decrease in the number of billboards. What trends are you seeing in programmatic out of home? We're seeing the same trends in digital out of home that we've seen in some of the more traditional ad platforms that I grew up in.  If you look back about a decade ago, most of your desktop web display was…ad agency contacts the publisher, an ad is agreed upon and it's set.  It's a specific buy each time an ad campaign needs to run…Fast forward about 10 years and now programmatic serve 84% of every ad you see on your desktop.  Mobile followed…and now 60% of every mobile ad you see is served through programmatic.  Same with video, primarily youtube…all that's done through programmatic…Now digital out of home is probably a little further behind…the out of home market is $1.2 billion…if you look at the potential for the digital out of home market you're looking at a $42 billion industry…we're only in early days here. What is Samsung doing to help out of home companies take advantage of programmatic advertising?  So we have arguably the largest commercial signage footprint, at least in the US…we have the opportunity for our expansive end customer base to start realizing this opportunity… Samsung is partnering with Vistar Media. We went through a fairly exhaustive…selection process and we arrived at a company called Vistar Media…I'm partnering with them to build a native solution within our content management system, our delivery system, magic info, to be able to open up all end users to the programmatic ecosystem.  We went live with the integration in March…Most recently we've started putting really earnest development on the Prismview part of the solution If I buy a new Samsung Prismview digital sign does it have a pipe installed into Vistar? Magic info and Vistar's partnership is alive and working….I think what we have with the Prismview solution is the ability to reach a broader market...the opportunity to access the advertising dollars is now being realized by the...smallest player. Impact of privacy measures on out of home.  I think there's less of an impact…Privacy is super important…What these privacy laws are really focused on is exposing our PII,
