Where to Go Camping this Summer

Banff National Park - Camping - DiversityNewsMagazine.org
Banff National Park – Camping

Camping is the ideal summer hobby.  Campers get the chance to disappear into forests, relax away from phones and screens, and reconnect with nature.  What’s better than that?  If you’re wanting a chance to get away and see new views without having to deal with the risk of tourist traps and drama: nothing’s better than one of these camping spots.  You’ll need bug spray and sunscreen at all of them, but they each have their personality that you can’t find elsewhere.

Yoho National Park
Yoho National Park
Yoho National Park

On the southeastern end of British Columbia is a park unlike any other.  Yoho National park is home to some of the world’s most beautiful waterfalls, rivers, and lakes.  Although this park is known for its endless water features, the trees and mountains aren’t anything to ignore.

 

Camping in Yoho is fantastic because of the artsy vibes of the area and how giving and open the other campers are.  As a tradition, if you have extra wood left over when you leave, you set it in the bordering camp of someone who’s staying longer than you. So the entire park feels like one extended version of paying it forward that you could never get tired of.

Banff National Park

Banff National Park is one that you’ll want to keep returning to year after year.  Although it’s become a tourist trap in the winter, in the summer, camping is king.  Countless green and vibrant hiking paths, beautiful clean air and atmosphere, and a fun attitude has created a camping experience that is as much about adventure as it is about camping.  Don’t let the steep mountains scare you away; countless camping spots all over the park are set up for any kind of camper imaginable. So if you want to fish, hike, or enjoy ziplining above the mountain’s deep dips and craigs, this is the place for you.  

Algonquin National Park

Home in southeastern Ontario, Algonquin National Park is paradise.  The best time to camp is in late summer or early fall when the leaves are beginning to change, but the air is still warm enough to keep you comfortable.  Wildlife like moose, bears, and loons call these woods home, and you won’t want to put your camera away in fear of missing a fantastic wildlife shot.  Visitors who have stayed in this part say that the trails are well established, and they felt safe and relaxed while they started.  Although there’s no fix to get rid of bugs, you won’t mind them if you get to stay here.

Whistler National Park

Because of how popular it is for camping, real estate for sale in Whistler always seems to fly off the market the moment the weather heats up.  In the winter, this park may be known for being the home to Olympic athletes; this is camping territory in the summer.  The high elevation, mixed with beautiful views and incredible locals, combine into a space where you’ll want to spend the rest of your life.  Whistler is more than just a national park; it’s a space you’ll want to call home.

EDITORIAL: State and National Shield Laws in the US

First Amendment
First Amendment

Editorial and Opinions Education: State and National Shield Laws in the USA

First, we want to define for you what an Editorial piece means:

An editorial, leading article (UK) or leader (UK), is an opinion piece written by the senior editorial staff or publisher of a newspaper, magazine, or any other written document. Editorials may be supposed to reflect the opinion of the periodical.[citation needed] In Australian and major United States newspapers, such as The New York Times[1] and The Boston Globe,[2] editorials are often classified under the heading “opinion”.

Illustrated editorials may appear in the form of editorial cartoons.[3]

Typically, a newspaper’s editorial board evaluates which issues are important for their readership to know the newspaper’s opinion.[4]

Editorials are typically published on a dedicated page, called the editorial page, which often features letters to the editor from members of the public; the page opposite this page is called the op-ed page and frequently contains opinion pieces by writers not directly affiliated with the publication. However, a newspaper may choose to publish an editorial on the front page. In the English language press, this is done rarely and only on topics considered especially important; however, it is more common in some European countries such as Spain, Italy, and France.[5]

In the field of fashion publishing, the term has been adapted to refer to photo-editorials – features with often full-page photographs on a particular theme, designer, model or other single topic, with or (as a photo-essay) without accompanying text.[6]

Second, we want to define for you what an Opinion piece means:

In general, an opinion is a judgment, viewpoint, or statement about matters commonly considered to be subjective.

What distinguishes fact from opinion is that facts are verifiable, i.e. can be objectively proven to have occurred. An example is: “United States of America was involved in the Vietnam War” versus “United States of America was right to get involved in the Vietnam War”. An opinion may be supported by facts, in which case it becomes an argument, although people may draw opposing opinions from the same set of facts. Opinions rarely change without new arguments being presented. It can be reasoned that one opinion is better supported by the facts than another by analyzing the supporting arguments.[1] In casual use, the term opinion may be the result of a person’s perspective, understanding, particular feelings, beliefs, and desires. It may refer to unsubstantiated information, in contrast to knowledge and fact.

Collective or professional opinions are defined as meeting a higher standard to substantiate the opinion.

Editorial opinion[edit]

An “editorial opinion” is the stated opinion of a newspaper or of its publisher, as conveyed on the editorial page.

And Fourth California Shield Law:

In California, article I, section 2(b) of the California Constitution and Evidence Code section 1070 provide an immunity from being held in contempt to reporters, editors, publishers, and other people connected with or employed by newspapers, magazines, press associations and wire services, as well as radio or TV news reporters.

The California shield law applies to both the source of information (“confidential sources”) and to “unpublished information” such as notes, out-takes, unpublished photographs and tapes.

When a criminal defendant seeks information protected by the shield law, the courts have set up a “balancing test” which weighs how important the information is to the criminal defendant, whether the defendant can get the information elsewhere, and other factors.  See Delaney v. Superior Court (1990) 50 Cal. 3d 785.

On the other hand, when the prosecution seeks information in a criminal law, the shield law is absolute.  Miller v. Superior Court (1999) 21 Cal. 4th 883.  And in a civil case where the press is not a party, the immunity from contempt is also absolute – there’s no balancing test.  New York Times v. Superior Court (1990) 51 Cal. 3d 453.   This case helps journalists avoid being forced to be professional witnesses instead of professional journalists.

Does the shield law cover bloggers?  Good question.  The California shield law covers people “connected with or employed upon” a “newspaper, magazine, or other periodical publication, or by a press association or wire service.”   That question is likely to be litigated in the near future.

Additional information on the California Shield Law, Evidence Code Section 1070

1070. (a) A publisher, editor, reporter, or other person connected with or employed upon a newspaper, magazine, or other periodical publication, or by a press association or wire service, or any person who has been so connected or employed, cannot be adjudged in contempt by a judicial, legislative, administrative body, or any other body having the power to issue subpoenas, for refusing to disclose, in any proceeding as defined in Section 901, the source of any information procured while so connected or employed for publication in a newspaper, magazine or other periodical publication, or for refusing to disclose any unpublished information obtained or prepared in gathering, receiving or processing of information for communication to the public.

(b) Nor can a radio or television news reporter or other person connected with or employed by a radio or television station, or any person who has been so connected or employed, be so adjudged in contempt for refusing to disclose the source of any information procured while so connected or employed for news or news commentary purposes on radio or television, or for refusing to disclose any unpublished information obtained or prepared in gathering, receiving or processing of information for communication to the public.

(c) As used in this section, “unpublished information” includes information not disseminated to the public by the person from whom disclosure is sought, whether or not related information has been disseminated and includes, but is not limited to, all notes, outtakes, photographs, tapes or other data of whatever sort not itself disseminated to the public through a medium of communication, whether or not published information based upon or related to such material has been disseminated.

Editor’s Note: Now you have it. Educate yourself if you do not want the “Real Press or Media” teams to report of what they saw then make your event private and remember press or media representatives are not your publicist and is against journalism code of ethics to accept payment for exchange on an exemplary article. Those are not real journalists and they out of the blue bought a video camera or  photo camera and became media or press but has no direction or guidelines of the rules set by professional organizations for Journalists and Media or Press Associations such as: http://www.naa.orghttp://newamericamedia.org/network/association, SPJLos Angeles Press Club and many more. They have no idea the formats how to write. They have no education on the field. So sad those desperate publicists accepts anyone that claims to be media or press!

“Tombstone Pillow” Short Movie It Is Must Watch Because It Is A True Story

Tombstone Pillow Movie 2019
Updated poster of Tombstone Pillow Movie 2019

This past weekend, I saw the short movie Tombstone Pillow. Although it is short. you will definitely become inspired and learn something memorable!

Actress Producer Lourdes Duque Baron and Actress Kendra Sison De Mesa - Tombstone Pillow MovieThis movie is mainly about people in the Philippines living in a cemetery, and a wealthy widow. The starring roles are played by executive producer, singer, author and actress Lourdes Duque Baron as Olivia and actress Kendra Sison De Mesa as Maria Del Carmen.

Tombstone Pillow Actress Lourdes Duque BaronOlivia goes to the cemetery to visit her husband’s tomb and an angry mob meets her. She then meets Maria Del Carmen and asks her what she is doing at her husband’s tomb. Olivia and Maria Del Carmen have no time to talk because the angry mob is heading towards her. So, Maria Del Carmen helps Olivia to flee the angry mob.

After a couple of days pass, Olivia remembers Maria Del Carmen teaching her what has real value in life. So, one night she goes looking for her at the cemetery, but the people confront her again. Olivia tells them about her past and they leave her alone. However, she finds out that Maria Del Carmen has been dead for many years.

“Tombstone Pillow” features people living in the Philippines Manila North Cemetery. We should never take for granted what we have here in the US, because we are fortunate to live in a country where our “We the People” vote counts. Also, the US government cares about us.

Directors Daniel Lir and Bayou Bennett do a great job by bringing an inspiring drama to the big screen. They also introduce us to actresses Lourdes Duque Baron and Kendra Sison De Mesa. “Tombstone Pillow” serves as a great learning lesson as well as entertainment. It is a colorful film with a very little cast and few plot twists. However, the timeline is a bit unclear at times. For a number of scenes, I felt things were rushed and it was hard to tell whether it had been hours, days or months that had passed since the last time a given character had been on screen. I think the directors should have used titles before new scenes to identify hours and days.

Tombstone Pillow Movie - Actress Kendra Sison De MesaThe one actress that gave this reviewer pause was Kendra Sison De Mesa. She seemed to have fun acting along actress Lourdes Duque Baron. It was laughable when she gave the sandals to Olivia to run in the cemetery and Kendra threw her Christian Louboutin shoes in the trash. I also enjoyed how she took Olivia’s Gucci sunglasses to wear them

You need to watch this movie to understand what happens with Olivia and why Maria Del Carmen dies so fast. “Tombstone Pillow” is worthy to watch because what they show is a true story.

Choosing the Best Dry Shampoo for Your Hair

Since time immemorial, we have always considered our hair as our crowning glory. Our hair simply completes our look the moment we glance at the mirror. Our hair makes us look extraordinary and distinct. At times, it serves as a mark for people to know who we are. Moreover, it makes a lot of difference to have it in varied styles, with various accessories, and with different lengths. 

Hair adds up beauty to our unique facial features. Also, we look better on some clothes with hair down while on others, we pair them with a bun or a ponytail. Furthermore, it makes us look more exciting than usual when we wear our hair in different ways and different colors. Therefore, we must admit that it also builds confidence and adds grace to wear beautiful, gorgeous hair.

Choosing the Best Dry Shampoo for Your Hair - Diversity News Magazine OrgHair Dryness

However, due to several factors, our hair may be exposed to different toxins, chemicals, and other triggers that might bring about damages. One of the most common problems we experience is hair dryness and dryness of hair happens because of many reasons. It is possible to have it when we lose hair moisture when we use styling tools and materials that operate through induction. The heat from these tools and materials penetrate our hair and dries it faster than usual which sometimes goes beyond what our hair can handle. Our hair becomes unmanageable, frizzy, and worst, damaged. 

Also, strong shampoos, conditioners, other hair treatments, and even tools may contribute to the loss of essential oils. They may contain a large number of chemicals that may cause serious hair damages other than dryness. Brushing and washing too much can also take away naturally produced hair oils. This is in opposition to the myth we believe in about brushing our hair a hundred times before going to bed. It can cause our hair a lot more damages than good.

Additionally, poor nutrition can be a factor in hair dryness. If we continually skip on the kinds of food that give our hair ample nutrients, then this is unhelpful. Finally, the weather with low humidity also takes a toll on our hair as it absorbs moisture from our hair which makes hair difficult to manage, resulting in troublesome and fly-away hair ends. These are a few of the many triggers that may cause hair dryness. Some additional information might be helpful to you as you click here The 5 biggest hair myths.

Temporary Home Remedies

Fortunately, there are several supplies in our pantry that can help us with hair dryness. Avocados, for instance, have nutrients that are helpful to hair growth and beautification. It contains essential vitamins, minerals, and even fatty acids necessary to make our hair healthy-looking. We just need to mix it with egg and let it stand on our hair for 20 minutes and rinse it thoroughly. Using this once a week will bring our hair glow and luster.

Butter or Shea butter can be another temporary cure for hair dryness. All we need to do is spread a generous amount to our hair, leave it for half an hour, and then rinse it. Olive oil also contains fatty acids and antioxidants that can aid hair dryness. All we need to do is massage ½ cup of olive oil to our hair, let it stand for 45 minutes, and rinse. After use, you’ll see a great improvement.

We can also use the tea when rinsing our hair. Different types of tea will cater to different colors of hair (blonde: chamomile; brunette and grey: black tea; red: Rooibos tea). Apple cider vinegar can also function as a mask for damaged hair. Aside from the natural remedies mentioned above, there are several other suggested items that you can use. This site, https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/321850, will give you the detailed steps and procedures in making other temporary home remedies for dry and damaged hair. 

Damaged Hair Repair

When hair is damaged, there is somewhat a missing gap within. So, here are three tips that many experts give regarding the repair of damaged hair. First, we should be careful when using accessories and we should consider resting our hair from the push and pull when using these accessories. Then, we can lessen activities that require us to wash our hair more often. Finally, after a bath, it is advisable never to rub our hair with towels. 

Easy and Lasting Solutions to Hair Problems

Although there are a lot of home remedies and hair damage repair tips that we can work on and use, I still believe that hair dryness and other serious hair problems should be given a lasting solution. AsideChoosing the Best Dry Shampoo for Your Hair - Diversity News Magazine Orgfrom the fact that these home remedies are temporary, they also will take much of our time in terms of preparation and administration. We also note the fact that, although these are available in our pantry, we still are about to figure out how it will work on our hair type. It might bring us to a trial by error experimentation, which may lead to more damages to our hair.  

There is no assurance that one size fits all. We are lucky because there are reliable and user- friendly products available in the market. One good brand, Keranique, offers an array of hair products such as shampoo, conditioner, treatments, and styling tools that cater to specific hair concerns and needs. We need not worry because its ingredients are FDA approved. 

It is also clinically proven to reduce and stop hair loss. This product is widely used and over 2,109,412 women trust this brand. It is proven to regrow, strengthen, repair, and protect hair. It also caters to women from different age brackets and regardless of hair color or age, if you are experiencing hair damage or hair loss, this product is certainly for you. 

Keranique Hair Growth System includes the following: 

  • Scalp Stimulating Shampoo 

  • Volumizing Keratin Conditioner

  • Hair Regrowth Treatment

  • Lift & Repair Treatment Spray

PLUS, Two Bonus Styling Gifts:

  • Detangling Comb & Volumizing Brush

According to Dr. Sonia Batra, a well-known hair expert, the shampoo, conditioner, and the Lift and Repair Spray of Keranique contain ingredients that infuse the hair with Keratin Amino Complex that strengthen the hair shafts and protects the hair from damages caused by the environment. 

The shampoo and conditioner deeply cleanse the hair from roots to tips which make our hair thicker, healthier, silky, and manageable. Hair Growth Treatment is the solution for women who have hair loss concerns. It revitalizes hair follicles enabling them to regrow. The Lift and Repair Treatment Spray completes this package. 

Each set protects each hair strand, repairs existing damage, and prevents other possible damages to hair. This regimen might, in some ways, take some of our time but these products will surely give wonderful results. With the many products available in the market, we are allowed to choose the best among them. With Keranique, we do not need to experiment on our hair because this brand assures us of achieving the expectations we have in mind. It makes us achieve gorgeous-looking hair. 

Having beautiful hair makes us feel good. However, more than that, having healthy hair makes us feel confident. We need to take good care of our hair. We need a reliable partner to make it real. Thanks to Keranique and the wonders it brings to our crowning glory.

Due to COVID – 19, the JPF Music Awards were announced on December 28, 2020 online on the JPF Music YouTube channel at 8pm EST. Winners, runner-ups and the top four album finalists and top six song finalists in each category were disclosed within a two hour and eighteen minute program by JPF Music Organization founder Brian Austin Whitney.

There were 4,203 judges from around the world listening to 71,700 album entries and over 230,000 song entries, with a multi-genre mix of music categories, 63 song categories and 75 album categories.  Fawn® won Best Dance Album, “Idiosyncratic” and Best Dance Single, “Small” and won runner-up for Best Holiday Song, “Christmas Time”, the finalist positions for Best Alternative Song, “Over” and Best Holiday Album, “Angels We Have Heard On High.”

Fawn® said: “As a songwriter and independent artist, having this type of recognition is such a blessing. When I learned about the odds of winning or placing in the top five categories, I was blown away. These honors I’ve been given, are from real world listeners and that means a lot to me. I am indebted to Marty Panzer and Pat Pattison for their lyrical mentorship and John Bettis for his encouraging support over the years. I am so grateful an organization Like JPF Music exists.

At the online JPF Music Awards, Whitney said: “If you’re a nominee and you don’t show up in the finals tonight, don’t feel bad. It was harder to get a nomination in our awards by the sheer number of entries than it is to get a nomination in the Grammys, so it’s a big achievement.”

If you happen to be in the top six or the top four, I hope that you’ll celebrate! For the first time ever, we have an Honorable Mention category for songs or albums that just missed getting into the top finishers by a single vote or less. 2020 has been rough on everybody and I think this was a great way to have a really positive and upbeat ending to the year. We want to bring as much positive attention as we can to these talents.”

On July 9, 2020, Stonedef Records, Inc., announced that Billboard hit songwriter and recording artist Fawn’s “Wait For The Sun” featuring Debra Wilson. Also joining forces are Joanna Cassidy, Judy Tenuta, Kate Linder, Shanice Wilson and many others in
support of Black Lives Matter.

“After seeing the horrific video footage of Ahmaud Arbery being murdered in cold blood, I couldn’t sleep. It haunted me. Then I heard about Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Elijah
McClain and countless others.” said Billboard Hit Recording Artist Fawn.

Fawn immediately started to reach out to her, friends, acquaintances and colleagues, asking them to join with their voices.

“I couldn’t take it any longer, and I can no longer be silent, so I’m adding my voice against the atrocities, injustices and heinous actions people of color go through daily.” concluded Fawn.

“Wait for The Sun” is a song Fawn wrote about struggling and fighting your way through difficult, dark times. The message of the chorus, “Wait for The Sun” is a reminder to hold on because the sun is going to come out again.” A key unifying line is, “let the love remind you we’re one, and wait for the sun.”

The music video has a handful of soulful celebrities and people uniting for a spiritual journey into cosmic positivity and change. When Fawn saw Debra Wilson’s silent monologue performed to the song, there was one particular moment she felt captured the anguish, pain and frustration of the African American community.

WRITING STYLE:

At DiversityNewsMagazine.org, formerly DiversityNewsMagazineDotcom we follow the Associated Press style. The Associated Press is an American multinational nonprofit news agency headquartered in New York City that operates as a cooperative, unincorporated association. Freelancers should follow AP style when writing their stories for us. We will make any slight adjustments in the few areas we deviate from AP style, if it is necessary.

DiversityNewsMagazine.org formerly DiversityNewsMagazineDotcom Staff and Contributors/Reporters writing format is by utilizing the Five W’s and one H. What are the Five W’s and One H? They are: Who, What, Why, When, Where and How. Why are the Five W’s and One H important? Journalism purists will argue your story isn’t complete until you answer all six questions. It’s hard to argue this point, since missing any of these questions leaves a hole in your story.

STORY/ARTICLES REQUIREMENTS:

In general, we expect freelancers to use good journalism and solid writing in their Diversity News Magazine articles. Here are some specific requirements we ask of our freelancers:

  • Multiple sources. A minimum of two sources. A 450-word story should have no fewer than two sources; a 800-word story should have no fewer than three sources.

  • Diverse sources. DiversityNewsMagazine.org formerly DiversityNewsMagazineDotcom has a worldwide circulation in the internet. We are based in Hollywood, California but we are expanding to major cities of the United States and abroad. So it’s important to us that our sources reflect our readership. Freelancers don’t have to hit every county we cover, but they should have sources from more than one. And the more counties covered, the better.

  • Sidebars. Any story 1,000 words or more should have at least one sidebar. Sometimes it’s an info box referring readers to more information from a local organization. Sometimes it’s a list of tips related to the story’s subject. Readers like having information broken up for them and they enjoy multiple points of entry into a story, so we value freelancers who are mindful of that.

City of Los Angeles Announces New LGBTQ Certification For Business Assistance Virtual Network

On Tuesday, June 25, 2019, The City of Los Angeles announced the addition of LGBTQ certification to the Los Angeles Business Assistance Virtual Network(BAVN). BAVN is a free online portal provided by the City of Los Angeles and the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development that connects businesses with City contracting opportunities. The new qualifications will allow for statistical tracking of certifications to ensure that contracts reflect the diversity of the City.

“I applaud the City’s efforts to expand opportunities in public procurement for our local business community. LGBTQ certification is another step towards further leveling the playing field for small and diverse businesses,” said Los Angeles Board of Public Works President Kevin James. “BAVN is a free and accessible resource that allows us to provide these businesses with the proper tools to succeed and thrive in Los Angeles.”

The National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce is the exclusive, third-party certification body that will work to verify that eligible businesses are majority-owned by LGBTQ individuals. Once this process is complete, businesses can sign up through BAVN to be notified when contracts are available for bidding and receive guidance through the bidding process. The Bureau of Contract Administration, led by Inspector of Public Works John L. Reamer, Jr., verifies documentation and oversees contracts for the City of Los Angeles.

BAVN currently offers certification for disadvantaged business owners; disabled veterans; minority-owned businesses; women-owned businesses; small, emerging, and local businesses; and more. This allows small and diverse businesses the opportunity to compete with large corporations for contracts. The new LGBTQ certification program will go into effect in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2019-20 beginning on July 1st.

This announcement comes during the annual celebration of LGBTQ Heritage Month. Additionally, the Los Angeles Board of Public Works recognized a few of the outstanding men and women from the Department of Public Works as part of the month’s festivities.

“Los Angeles has been at the forefront of championing equality since 1967 when Silver Lake’s Black Cat became the site of one of the first LGBTQ demonstrations,” said Los Angeles Board of Public Works Vice President Cecilia Cabello. “While tremendous strides have been made since then, the fight for equal opportunity continues. I’m honored to recognize a few of our LGBTQ brothers and sisters who dedicate their lives to enhancing the quality of life for Angelenos and advocating for inclusiveness in the workplace and beyond.”

The LGBTQ Heritage Month honorees were recognized for their professional accomplishments and contributions to raising awareness of human and civil rights in and out of the workplace. From maintaining our streets and sewers to fixing potholes and collecting trash, these honorees are making a significant impact in their respective fields:

  • Gaye Chapman, Senior Electrical Inspector, Bureau of Contract Administration: serves as lead project inspector for the L.A. Wastewater Integrated Network Systems (LAWINS) project involving multiple wastewater facilities. She also provides training and guidance to other Bureau of Contract Administration inspectors.

  • Doug Walters, Chief Sustainability Officer & Chief Resiliency Officer, LA Sanitation and Environment: a proven leader in sustainability and environmental issues who formerly served as Co-Chair of the City’s Gay & Lesbian United Employees organization where he spent 4 years advocating for inclusionary policies for LGBTQ employees within City Departments.

  • Les Amer, Accounting Clerk, StreetsLA: supports the street pavement preservation program and sidewalk construction program. His work ensures the delivery of materials essential to paving more than 2,200 lane miles and constructing 500,000 square feet of sidewalks annually.
