Story of the Week (DR):End of summer anti-woke bro rage brigade MMNew Cracker Barrel Logo Sparks Right-Wing Backlash—From Trump Jr. And MoreMAGA erupts over Cracker Barrel logo change, and stock plungesRight-Winger, Others Call Out 'Woke' New Change To Cracker Barrel's Peg GameThe goal of the game is to whittle down the number of pegs on the board to one through a series of “jumping” pegs, not unlike checkers. Previously, directions on the game explained that people who have only one peg left on the board are geniuses, while people with two pegs left are “pretty smart.” However, if you leave three pegs, the game considers you “dumb,” while anyone who leaves four pegs is an “EG-NO-RA-MOOOSE.”That was the old game. New peg games have removed the playful insults and instead say, “leave three or more ― no reason to be embarrassed. Try again.”Sean Davis, the CEO of The Federalist: Cracker Barrel didn't just destroy its logo and restaurant vibe. It also changed the peg game to make dumb people feel better when they do poorly.Until October 2017, The Federalist had a "black crime" tag, which aggregated articles related to criminal activity by African AmericansChristian College's Hot Take On Cracker Barrel Has People Saying, ‘Huh?'Hillsdale College in Michigan: A post on its official account on X (formerly Twitter) likened the updated logo to a vandalized statue of President George Washington that was defaced during the 2020 protests over the police killing of George Floyd.MAGA Rep Drags Jesus Christ Into ‘Woke' Cracker Barrel MeltdownCongressman Byron Donalds slammed the restaurant chain for daring to rebrand after he had a religious experience in one of its Florida parking lots: “In college, I worked at @CrackerBarrel in Tallahassee,” the Florida Republican wrote on X, “I even gave my life to Christ in their parking lot. Their logo was iconic and their unique restaurants were a fixture of American culture. No one asked for this woke rebrand.”‘Cracker barrel goes woke': CEO under MAGA fire for changing logo first time in 48 years, removes ‘white guy'Steak 'n Shake slams Cracker Barrel CEO for eliminating 'old-timer' from logo: 'We take pride in our history'“This is what happens when you have a board that does not respect their historical customers or their brand.At Steak n Shake, we have gone back to basics. Our tallow fries are waiting for you. Oh yeah, you can also now pay with Bitcoin!”Entrepreneur Sardar Biglari owns Steak ‘n ShakeOwns 9.3% of Cracker barreltook control of Steak 'n Shake in August 2008 after three years of declining same-store sales and losses of $100,000 per day.Biglari controls the Steak 'n Shake Company, First Guard Insurance, Abraxas Petroleum, Maxim, Southern Oil of Louisiana, Southern Pioneer Insurance and the Western Sizzlin' corporation. Biglari was born in Iran in 1977However the chain ran into more problems in 2016 and onward, with revenue declining sharply.In 2021, Steak N' Shake made a strategic decision to transition away from casual dining and become a fast food restaurant. Steak 'n Shake replaced lunch counters with self-serve kiosks in 2021 to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Changing the service model allowed a significant reduction of store staffIn 2024, Biglari fought and lost a proxy contest with Cracker Barrel, trying to get himself and two buddies on the CB board.This marks the sixth time since 2011 that Biglari has initiated a proxy contest seeking seats on the Board (the fourth time for Sardar Biglari personally), and the seventh contested solicitation overall during that span.POP QUIZ:Was that the original logo?No. The Cracker Barrel chain opened first in 1969 and had a text-only logo. In 1977, the famous logo with a man and a barrel was introduced.Is Cracker Barrel's new-ish CEO (11/23) a man or a woman?Cracker Barrel CEO Julie Felss Masino and the new logo controversyMs. Masino previously served as the President, International of Taco Bell, a subsidiary of Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE: YUM) from January 2020 to June 2023. From January 2018 to December 2019, she served as President, North America of Taco Bell.“Cracker Barrel's new logo isn't an accident — it's CEO Julie Felss Masino's project. She scrapped a beloved American aesthetic and replaced it with sterile, soulless branding.”Benny Johnson said the logo change could cause the company to collapse in a similar way that Target and other stores that embraced DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) did.‘Go woke, you go broke:' Ohio faith leaders urge Kroger to abandon LGBTQ+ policiesTrump calls on Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook to resignLisa DeNell Cook is an American economist who has served as a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors since May 23, 2022.

Niccolò Machiavelli è uno degli autori più famosi e controversi della letteratura italiana. Il suo capolavoro "Il Principe" continua a influenzare la politica e la filosofia moderne dopo cinquecento anni. Questo articolo ti aiuterà a comprendere meglio la vita, le opere e l'eredità di questo straordinario pensatore fiorentino, con esempi pratici per migliorare il tuo italiano. Niccolò Machiavelli e "Il Principe": Spiegazione Facile e Chiara Chi Era Niccolò Machiavelli: Biografia e Contesto Storico Niccolò Machiavelli nacque a Firenze nel 1469, in un'epoca turbolenta per l'Italia. Il Paese era diviso in numerosi stati indipendenti che combattevano costantemente tra loro, mentre potenze straniere come Francia e Spagna cercavano di conquistare territori italiani. Machiavelli non proveniva da una famiglia nobile o ricca. Era quello che oggi chiameremmo un "funzionario pubblico" o "diplomatico". Lavorava per la Repubblica di Firenze occupandosi di politica estera e affari militari. Questa esperienza pratica gli permise di osservare da vicino come funzionava realmente il potere politico. Vocabolario utile: Repubblica = forma di governo senza re Diplomatico = persona che rappresenta il suo paese all'estero Politica estera = relazioni con altri paesi Affari militari = questioni riguardanti l'esercito La Caduta Politica e l'Esilio: Il Momento che Cambiò Tutto Nel 1512, la vita di Machiavelli cambiò drammaticamente. La famiglia dei Medici tornò al potere a Firenze dopo aver sconfitto la Repubblica. Machiavelli, che aveva servito la Repubblica, venne immediatamente licenziato dal suo incarico. Peggio ancora, venne accusato di congiura (complotto) contro i Medici e fu torturato. Dopo essere stato liberato, si ritirò nella sua piccola villa di campagna a Sant'Andrea in Percussina, vicino a Firenze. Era politicamente morto a soli 44 anni. Espressioni idiomatiche italiane: "Essere licenziato" = perdere il lavoro "Politicamente morto" = non avere più potere o influenza politica "Ritirarsi" = andare via, appartarsi La Nascita de "Il Principe": Un Capolavoro Nato dall'Esilio Fu proprio durante questo periodo di esilio forzato che Machiavelli scrisse la sua opera più famosa. In una lettera all'amico Francesco Vettori, descrive poeticamente la sua routine quotidiana: "La sera tornavo a casa, entravo nel mio studio e mi spogliavo di quella veste cotidiana, piena di fango e di loto. Mi vestivo di panni reali e curiali, e così vestito decorosamente entravo nelle antiche corti degli antichi uomini..." Questa citazione è molto importante per comprendere l'approccio di Machiavelli. Durante il giorno era un contadino che lavorava la terra, ma la sera si trasformava in un intellettuale che dialogava mentalmente con i grandi pensatori del passato. Analisi del testo: "Veste cotidiana" = vestiti di tutti i giorni "Fango e loto" = sporcizia del lavoro nei campi "Panni reali e curiali" = vestiti eleganti, da corte "Antiche corti degli antichi uomini" = il mondo dei grandi pensatori del passato Le Teorie Politiche Fondamentali de "Il Principe" "Il Principe" non è un romanzo o un'opera poetica. È un manuale pratico di politica, una specie di "how to" del Rinascimento. Machiavelli stabilisce regole precise per conquistare e mantenere il potere politico. La Doppia Natura del Principe Secondo Machiavelli, un buon principe deve saper utilizzare due nature: quella dell'uomo e quella della bestia. Come scrive nel capitolo XVIII: "Bisogna essere volpe per riconoscere le trappole e leone per spaventare i lupi." Questo significa che un leader deve essere: Astuto come una volpe = intelligente, capace di capire gli inganni Forte come un leone = coraggioso, capace di imporre rispetto Essere Temuti o Essere Amati? Una delle frasi più famose de "Il Principe" riguarda questa domanda fondamentale. Machiavelli scrive:

Parole pesanti di Vittorio Teresi, ex magistrato antimafia e presidente del Centro Studi Borsellino, che torna a parlare del mistero simbolo delle stragi di mafia del 1992

Chi era davvero Niccolò Machiavelli? In questa lezione ripercorriamo il contesto storico, politico e personale in cui si sviluppa il pensiero del grande fiorentino: dalla Firenze turbolenta del Savonarola alle guerre d'Italia, fino alla redazione del Principe, il libro che avrebbe cambiato per sempre il modo di pensare il potere.Una riflessione viva e accessibile che unisce storia e attualità, con accostamenti a fenomeni contemporanei, metafore economiche e paragoni che attraversano i secoli. Perché Machiavelli, in fondo, parla ancora a chiunque abbia responsabilità, ambizione o semplicemente voglia di capire come funzionano davvero le cose.

"Sangue marcio" di Antonio Manzini “Sangue marcio” è il primo romanzo scritto da Antonio Manzini, diventato poi noto con la serie con protagonista Rocco Schiavone. “Sangue marcio” fu pubblicato per la prima volta nel 2005 da Fazi, era diventato introvabile e ora, a distanza di vent’anni, è stato ripubblicato da Piemme. L'esordio di Manzini, dunque, nato un po' per caso, con un manoscritto che viene fatto leggere all'amico scrittore Niccolò Ammaniti, che ne intuisce la qualità e lo consegna all'editor Martina Donati. Arriva la pubblicazione e il resto è storia nota. In questo primo romanzo c'è già la qualità narrativa che Antonio Manzini ha poi dimostrato successivamente, ma soprattutto c'è un nucleo tematico che poi caratterizzerà i suoi romanzi: c'è la manipolazione, c'è la violenza, c'è anche la disillusione. Per quanto riguarda strettamente la trama di “Sangue marcio”, ci sono due fratelli, Pietro e Massimo. Da piccoli assistono all'arresto del padre per un crimine orrendo che il lettore apprende lentamente nell'ambito del romanzo. Pietro, fra l'altro, assiste anche al suicidio della madre. È il 1976 e Pietro finisce in un istituto a Torino dove la violenza è la regola, mentre Massimo viene affidato a uno zio. Da adulti, siamo nel 2002, Pietro è diventato un cronista di nera e Massimo è un commissario di polizia. Da due punti diversi devono indagare su un serial killer che uccide giovani donne lasciando sui loro corpi sempre la stessa orribile firma.

En el panorama empresarial actual, se examina la posible desinversión de Starbucks en China. Según informó el medio económico chino Caixin, la multinacional estadounidense estaría explorando opciones en el mercado para traspasar sus operaciones en el país asiático. Sin embargo, la propia compañía ha negado esta posibilidad. En un comunicado oficial, un representante de Starbucks afirmó que “actualmente no se está considerando una venta completa de las actividades en China". Aun así, los rumores no cesan y podrían intensificarse próximamente. Tal como señala Reuters, en mayo la empresa habría iniciado un proceso estructurado para evaluar el interés de potenciales compradores, a quienes les plantearon preguntas relacionadas con aspectos como la cultura empresarial, el estilo de liderazgo y las estrategias de sostenibilidad. No obstante, las fuentes subrayan que Starbucks aún no ha definido si desea conservar una participación mayoritaria o limitarse a una más reducida en el futuro. Esto coincide con declaraciones recientes de Brian Niccol a la cadena CNBC, donde aseguró que su intención es mantener una presencia duradera en el país. Niccol considera que Starbucks está desempeñando un papel importante en ese mercado. Sin embargo, la competencia local está ganando terreno rápidamente. Luckin Coffee lidera el sector con el 35% de participación, tras beneficiarse del retroceso de Starbucks, que en 2017 controlaba el 42% del mercado y hoy apenas alcanza el 17%. Otra competidora emergente es Cotti Coffee, que ya abarca el 12% de los puntos de venta. Juntas, estas tres marcas representan más del 50% de los locales cafeteros. Las pequeñas cadenas restantes, mejor adaptadas al gusto chino, completan el panorama. Según la consultora Kearney, estas apuestan más por el té y por un modelo ágil basado en el formato para llevar y el entorno digital. Starbucks entró a China en 1999, y desde entonces su trayectoria ha estado marcada por grandes desafíos.

Niccolò Machiavelli - Why People Will Always Use You (Unless You Do This) In this video we will be talking about 8 powerful ways to stop people from using you the philosophy of Niccolò Machiavelli. Niccolò Machiavelli's philosophy is called political realism and it emphasizes practical and effective governance. Niccolò Machiavelli—a political philosopher who dared to speak the truth about human nature. He wasn't cynical. He was realistic. He didn't believe people were evil—but he did believe most people act out of self-interest. In his legendary book, The Prince, Machiavelli doesn't tell us to be cruel. He tells us to open our eyes and see that the world isn't ruled by kindness or fairness— but by strategy. By power. And by survival. He never actually said, “The ends justify the means”— but his philosophy danced dangerously close to it. To Machiavelli, if achieving power required cruelty, manipulation, or deceit—so be it. What mattered was the result. And while his book was intended for monarchs, his ideas seep into modern life more than we'd like to admit. Because in today's world, power doesn't always wear a crown. Sometimes, it wears a smile. Sometimes, it sits across from you, asking for favors. Sometimes, it's that “friend” who only calls when they need something. Machiavelli showed us how to recognize when we're being used. And more importantly… how to stop it. Because once you see the game for what it is—You stop being the pawn. So here are ways to stop people from using you from the philosophy of Niccolò Machiavelli - 01. Understand that people are self-interested 02. Set and Enforce your boundaries 03. Control the Image that Others Have of You 04. Practice Generosity in a Measured Way 05. Appear Virtuous, but Be Strategic 06. Keep your powers hidden 07. Command Respect, Not Likeability 08. Stay Independent I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope that this wisdom on how to stop people from using you  from the philosophy of Niccolò Machiavelli will be helpful in your life.  Niccolò Machiavelli was an influential author, philosopher, and historian during the Italian Renaissance. Often called the father of modern political philosophy and political science, he is best known for his work, "The Prince." This book serves as a practical guide for new rulers, offering realistic advice on governance. Machiavelli changed the way people thought about politics by separating it from ethics. Before him, politics was seen as part of moral behavior but Machiavelli focused on what really works in politics, not on how things should ideally be. This approach is called political realism and it emphasizes practical and effective governance.

Es ist ein altes Thema, das in der bekanntesten Renaissance-Komödie ganz neu verhandelt wird: Der junge Callimaco begehrt die mit Nicia verheiratete schöne Lucrezia. Um sie zu bekommen, muss er mithilfe des gewitzten Ligurio eine Intrige in Gang setzen, in der ein angeblich tödlicher Zaubertrank und ein korrupter Mönch entscheidende Rollen spielen. Machiavellis “Mandragola” veranschaulicht mit viel Esprit sein Konzept der virtù und ist damit die ideale Ergänzung zu seinem berühmten Hauptwerk “Il Principe / Der Fürst”.

Meta Platforms, led by a group of authors including Pulitzer Prize winner Andrew Sean Greer and National Book Award winner Ta-Nehisi Coates, the Mark Zuckerberg-led company has argued that its alleged scraping of over seven million books from the pirated library LibGen constituted "fair use" of the material, and was therefore not illegal.Meta's attorneys are also arguing that the countless books that the company used to train its multibillion-dollar language models and springboard itself into the headspinningly buzzy AI race are actually worthless. Meta cited an expert witness who downplayed the books' individual importance, averring that a single book adjusted its LLM's performance "by less than 0.06 percent on industry standard benchmarks, a meaningless change no different from noise." Thus there's no market in paying authors to use their copyrighted works, Meta says, because "for there to be a market, there must be something of value to exchange," as quoted by Vanity Fair — "but none of [the authors'] works has economic value, individually, as training data." Other communications showed that Meta employees stripped the copyright pages from the downloaded books.Tellingly, the unofficial policy seems to be to not speak about it at all: "In no case would we disclose publicly that we had trained on LibGen, however there is practical risk external parties could deduce our use of this dataset," an internal Meta slide deck read. The deck noted that "if there is media coverage suggesting we have used a dataset we know to be pirated, such as LibGen, this may undermine our negotiating position with regulators on these issues."Lauren Sánchez in Space Was Marie Antoinette in a Penis-Shaped RocketKaty Perry Boasts About Ridiculous Rocket Launch While NASA Is Scrubbing History of Women in Space“It's about a collective energy and making space for future women. It's about this wonderful world that we see right out there and appreciating it. This is all for the benefit of Earth.”Last month, the Orlando Sentinel first reported, NASA scrubbed language from a webpage about the agency's Artemis missions declaring that a goal of the mission was to put the first woman and first person of color on the Moon; just a few days later, NASA Watch reported that comic books imagining the first woman on the Moon had been deleted from NASA's website.A webpage for "Women at NASA" is still standing, but pictures of women and people of color — astronauts, engineers, scientists — have reportedly been removed from NASA's real-world hallways amid the so-called "DEI" purge. Per Scientific American, the word "inclusion" has been removed as one of NASA's core pillars. And as 404 Media reported in February, NASA personnel were directed to remove mentions of women in leadership positions from its website.OpenAI NonsenseOpenAI Is Secretly Building a Social NetworkOpenAI has been secretly building its own social media platform, which The Verge reports is intended to resemble X-formerly-Twitter — the social media middleweight owned by CEO Sam Altman's arch-nemesis, Elon MuskOpenAI updated its safety framework—but no longer sees mass manipulation and disinformation as a critical riskOpenAI said it will stop assessing its AI models prior to releasing them for the risk that they could persuade or manipulate people, possibly helping to swing elections or create highly effective propaganda campaigns.The company said it would now address those risks through its terms of service, restricting the use of its AI models in political campaigns and lobbying, and monitoring how people are using the models once they are released for signs of violations.OpenAI also said it would consider releasing AI models that it judged to be “high risk” as long as it has taken appropriate steps to reduce those dangers—and would even consider releasing a model that presented what it called “critical risk” if a rival AI lab had already released a similar model. Previously, OpenAI had said it would not release any AI model that presented more than a “medium risk.”Saying 'please' and 'thank you' to ChatGPT costs OpenAI millions, Sam Altman saysBeing nice to your AI chatbot requires computational power that raises electricity and water costsAltman responded to a user on X (formerly Twitter) who asked how much the company has lost in electricity costs from people being polite to their models: “Tens of millions of dollars well spent — you never know,” the CEO wrote.AI models rely heavily on energy stored in global data centers — which already accounts for about 2% of the global electricity consumption. Polite responses also add to OpenAI's water bill. AI uses water to cool the servers that generate the data. A study from the University of California, Riverside, said that using GPT-4 to generate 100 words consumes up to three bottles of water — and even a three-word response such as “You are welcome” uses about 1.5 ounces of water.Antitrust NonsenseTrump DOJ's plan to restructure Google hurts consumers, national security, says exec: 'Wildly overbroad'Kent Walker, Google's president of global affairs: "We're very concerned about DOJ's proposal. We think it would hurt American consumers, our economy, our tech leadership, even national security. The proposed reform from DOJ "would result in unprecedented government overreach that would harm American consumers, developers, and small businesses — and jeopardize America's global economic and technological leadership at precisely the moment it's needed most."8 revelations from Mark Zuckerberg's 3 days on the witness stand in Meta's antitrust trialThe FTC alleges Meta "helped cement" its illegal monopoly in the social media market with its acquisition of Instagram and the messaging app WhatsApp more than a decade ago.8 revelations:Antitrust worries surfaced years agoTwo years before the FTC initially sued Meta over allegations that it violated US competition laws, Zuckerberg considered breaking Instagram out into its own company to avoid potential antitrust scrutiny, according to a 2018 internal email revealed by the government at trial."I wonder if we should consider the extreme step of spinning Instagram out as a separate company," Zuckerberg wrote in the email to company executives. "As calls to break up the big tech companies grow, there is a non-trivial chance that we will be forced to spin out Instagram and perhaps WhatsApp in the next 5-10 years anyway." If a break up were to happen, Zuckerberg wrote, history showed that companies could end up better off.Asked about this view at trial, Zuckerberg said, "I'm not sure exactly what I had in mind then."A 'crazy idea' to boost Facebook's relevanceZuckerberg's "crazy idea" for Facebook in 2022 involved purging all users' friends. The CEO — fearful that Facebook was losing cultural relevance — made the proposal in a 2022 email to the social network's top brass."Option 1. Double down on Friending," Zuckerberg wrote in the message. "One potentially crazy idea is to consider wiping everyone's graphs and having them start again."Sheryl Sandberg wanted to play Settlers of CatanZuckerberg once offered to give Sheryl Sandberg, the former COO of Meta, a tutorial in the board game Settlers of Catan.The lesson offer came up in 2012 messages in which the two discussed the fresh $1 billion purchase of Instagram, partially redacted missives presented by the FTC during Zuckerberg's testimony showed."We would love it. I want to learn Settlers of Catan too so we can play," Sandberg told Zuckerberg in the message. He responded: "I can definitely teach you Settlers of Catan. It's very easy to learn."Meta's rivalry with TikTok has only just begunDuring his testimony, Zuckerberg hammered home Meta's argument that the tech giant faces massive competition from other apps, especially TikTok."TikTok is still bigger than either Facebook or Instagram," Zuckerberg testified. "I don't like it when our competitors do better than us. You can sort of bet that I'm not going to rest until we are doing quite a bit better than we are doing now.”Facebook Camera app struggles were a source of worryInstagram's early rise shook Zuckerberg. As his company struggled to mount its response with the Facebook Camera app, the CEO began to lose his patience."What is going on with our photos team?" Zuckerberg wrote in a 2011 message to top executives, as revealed by the FTC in court. Zuckerberg then described a number of individuals, whose names were redacted, as being "checked out." He added another person didn't want "to work with this team because he thinks this team sucks."In May 2012, Facebook launched a photo-sharing app called Facebook Camera, which aims to make it simpler for the social network's users to upload and browse photos on smartphones. Only weeks after Facebook spent $1 billion on a similar photo-sharing app called Instagram. Zuckerberg tried to buy Snapchat for $6 billionZuckerberg's failed bid to buy Snapchat was highlighted by the government to bolster its argument that Meta sought to maintain its dominance in the social media market through acquisitions rather than competition.Facebook isn't really for friends anymoreWhile under questioning by the FTC, Zuckerberg said that Facebook had greatly evolved since he launched the platform more than 20 years ago and that its main purpose wasn't really to connect with friends anymore.The FTC argues that Meta monopolizes the market for "personal social networking services.""The friend part has gone down quite a bit," Zuckerberg testified. He said the Facebook feed has "turned into more of a broad discovery and entertainment space."Not impressed by WhatsApp cofounderZuckerberg wasn't too impressed with one of WhatsApp's cofounders after a 2012 meeting he had with company leadership."I found him fairly impressive although disappointingly (or maybe positive for us) unambitious," Zuckerberg wrote in an email to colleagues after the meeting, it was revealed at trial.Jan Koum and Brian Acton cofounded WhatsApp in 2009. Zuckerberg said in his testimony that he thinks he was referring to Koum. Asked about his email, Zuckerberg seemed uneasy. He said that Koum was clearly smart but that he and Acton were staunchly opposed to growing their messaging app enough to be a real threat to Facebook. Zuckerberg would go on to buy WhatsApp in 2014 for $19 billion.Mark Zuckerberg's Meta Platforms adds former Trump advisor to the board days before an antitrust showdown with the FTCMeta Platforms is further boosting its lineup of heavy hitters with the additions of Stripe CEO Patrick Collison and Dina Powell McCormick to the mix. Powell McCormick was the former Deputy National Security Advisor to President Donald Trump during his first term. Married to Republican Senator Dave McCormick, former CEO of Bridgewater Associates, one of the world's largest hedge fundsStakeholder/shareholder activism NonsenseBP suffers investor rebellion at first AGM since climate strategy U-turnBP suffered an investor rebellion on Thursday after facing shareholders for the first time since abandoning its climate strategy at a meeting marred by protest.About a quarter of shareholders (24.3%) voted against the chair, Helge Lund, which marked the first time in at least a decade that more than 10% of BP's shareholders voted against the re-election of the chair.The outgoing chair told shareholders that the company had “pursued too much while looking to build new low-carbon businesses” but that “lessons have been learned”.BP's CEO Murray Auchincloss (2.7% against), repeated his previous claim that BP's optimism in the global green energy transition was “misplaced”, and that the board's “one simple goal” was to “grow the long-term value of your investment”.Mark Van Baal, the founder of the green activist investor group Follow This, said shareholders had “made it clear that weakening climate commitments is unacceptable”. He added: “This historical result serves as a wake-up call to BP's board and emphasises investor expectation for robust governance mechanisms and genuine leadership on ESG issues.”Starbucks CEO faces major backlash after details of his work routine are revealed: 'Ill-conceived decision'A press release from the National Center for Public Policy Research reported on the hypocrisy of Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol's transportation practices when considering the company's public commitment to eco-friendly practices.Niccol travels regularly from his home in Newport Beach, California, to Starbucks' headquarters in Seattle, Washington, via private jet. Each 2,000-mile round-trip commute releases nearly nine tons of carbon dioxide.The National Center for Public Policy Research's Free Enterprise Project's director Stefan Padfield pointed out the discrepancy of policy and practice during his presentation of Proposal 8 requesting an annual report on emissions congruency. He noted that each round trip made by Niccol "is roughly the annual energy-consumption footprint of the typical American household."This analogy paints a vivid picture of the hypocrisy between Starbucks' public environmental commitments and the practices of the CEO. Gaps are apparent. Target CEO Cornell meets with Sharpton to discuss DEI rollback as civil rights leader considers boycottCEO Brian Cornell met with the Rev. Al Sharpton in New York on Thursday as the retailer faces calls for a boycott and a slowdown in foot traffic that began after it walked back key diversity, equity and inclusion programs, the civil rights leader told CNBC Wednesday.The meeting, which Target asked for, comes after some civil rights groups urged consumers not to shop at Target in response to the retailer's decision to cut back on DEI. While Sharpton has not yet called for a boycott of Target, he has supported efforts from others to stop shopping at the retailer's stores.“You can't have an election come and all of a sudden, change your old positions,” Sharpton told CNBC in a Wednesday interview ahead of the meeting. “If an election determines your commitment to fairness then fine, you have a right to withdraw from us, but then we have a right to withdraw from you.”IBM Informs Staff of DEI Retreat as Trump-Era Scrutiny GrowsEmployees were told of the changes earlier this week, in a memo that cited “inherent tensions in practicing inclusion.” Legal considerations and shifting attitudes to DEI were among the factors for the company. IBM CEO Arvind Krishna discussed the changes in his monthly video update to employees Thursday.Anti-DEI activist Robby Starbuck said he first contacted the company in February to question its policies. IBM confirmed it discussed its changes with Starbuck.The company (-10% gender influence gap) also disbanded a diversity council that represents the views of employee groups as part of its reevaluation.Exxon Faces No Shareholder Proposals for First Time in 25 YearsThe absence of requests in Exxon's proxy statement comes a year after the company sued two climate-focused investors to remove what it described as their “extreme agenda.” It also tracks with the US Securities and Exchange Commission's decision to back guidelines that make it easier for corporations to block votes on shareholder resolutions at their annual meetings.Exxon said in a statement late Monday that it received only one proposal this year and the SEC agreed it should be discarded because “it tried to micromanage the company.”Occidental Petroleum Corp., Valero Energy Corp. and Dow Inc. are other companies with no shareholder proposals up for vote at this year's annual meetings.Exxon said this year marks “the first time in recent history that our proxy includes zero proposals from activists.” It was just four years ago that a small fund scored a victory over Exxon, placing three directors on the company's board.Climate activist shareholder group Follow This pauses big oil campaignClimate activist shareholder group Follow This said on Thursday a lack of investor appetite has forced it to suspend its nearly decade-long campaign seeking stronger commitments from major oil and gas producers to emission cutsHarley-Davidson slams activist investor, saying its campaign is messing up its CEO searchIn early April, H Partners' Jared Dourdeville, who had been a Harley director since 2022, abruptly resigned from the board, saying among other things that Harley had “cultural depletion” because of its work-from-home policies and the exit of several senior leaders. And that was not his only point of contention with the rest of the board.Investment firm H Partners, a major investor with 9.1% of Harley's shares, in an open letter filed on Wednesday, urged fellow shareholders to remove three longtime directors from Harley's eight-member board at its annual meeting in mid-May by withholding votes for them. H Partners said the board had not held Harley CEO Jochen Zeitz accountable for what it called his repeated “strategic execution failures” and “severe underperformance.”CEO/Chair Zeitz (2007, 30%)Lead DIrector Norman Thomas Linebarger (2008, 13%)Sara Levinson (1996, 20%)"We believe Mr. Zeitz, Mr. Linebarger, and Ms. Levinson should be held accountable for the destruction of shareholder value,"Harley's bylaws stipulate that directors who win less than 50% of votes in an election must tender their resignations.Harley announced last week that Zeitz, CEO since 2020 and board member for 18 years, would resign but stay in his role until a successor is found. H Partners wants him out now.That followed a letter issued a day earlier by Harley-Davidson, which accused H Partners of “publicly campaigning” against it and saying that those efforts are also “adversely impacting the CEO search process and ongoing execution of the Hardwire strategic plan,” referring to a turnaround plan it launched in 2021.Harley said that it began a CEO search late last year after Zeitz expressed interest in retiring and has interviewed three potential CEOs, including one supported by Dourdeville, but declined to offer any the job. The company has also said that Dourdeville had cast only one vote against the majority during his time as a director and that as recently as November 2024 he had expressed support for Zeitz.Harley-Davidson faces board fight from H Partners amid calls for CEO to exit soon

Napoli, Inter e Atalanta mantengono le distanze invariate con i loro tre pareggi con Roma, Milan e Torino. Con Boris Sollazzo e Carlo Pellegatti commentiamo in particolare le vittorie sfumate di partenopei e rossoneri raggiunti a pochi minuti dalla fine dagli avversari. Poi, con Niccolò Ceccarini il punto sulle trattative ancora in piedi in queste ultime ore di calciomercato.

When Brian Niccol took the helm as CEO of Starbucks last fall, his mandate was to reverse a decline in customer traffic. He’s been rolling out changes in recent weeks. Niccol announced last month that the coffee chain would be reversing its open-door policy as part of something called the “Coffee House Code of Conduct.” That means no more sitting on the coffee house WiFi or squatting at a table without purchasing something. And yes, this will include use of the company’s restrooms (just about the only ones you reliably find on nearly every corner.) Niccol took the reins of the company last fall amid lagging foot traffic, and the code of conduct is just one of the changes aiming to right the company’s wobbling ship. To discuss the changes and their impact on Starbucks' business, Soundside was joined by Julie Creswell, business reporter for the New York Times, where she covers the food industry.
