Herbalife Hires Republican Consultant To Battle States Attorneys General
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Embattled Herbalife has hired a Republican consultant in a move to head off any action against the company from state attorneys general.
Marcus Reese, a former George W. Bush campaign operative, joins the Los Angeles company as vice president for state and local government affairs, a newly created position, to bring Herbalife’s message to local and state leaders, the company said.
About nine state AGs have looked into allegations by investor Bill Ackman and Hispanic activists that the diet shake company is a pyramid scheme, Ackman has said. Two of them, New York and Illinois, have been identified.
Herbalife denies it’s a pyramid scheme.
The new position is a sign that Herbalife “is still concerned about what the state AGs are doing,” said Brent Wilkes, executive director of the League of United Latin American Citizens, an Herbalife critic.
Reese, who worked on the 2004 Bush campaign, among others, has been a consultant to Herbalife for the past year at Tusk Strategies, a public affairs consulting firm.
Reese has called himself a “war eagle” who, if not a political operative, would like to do fashion PR for Tom Ford.

Vince Reed – Top Internet Marketer Interview
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Vince Reed from Los Angeles, California, USA is the founder of My Internet Traffic System – the Home Business Training System for top earners.
After not being able to sponsor a single person into his first network marketing business for 6 months, Vince Reed created a system that allowed him to personally sponsor over 1,232 people personally. That same organization grew to over 20,000 distributors.
After this success, Vince decided to create a lead generation training company to teach other online marketers, direct sales reps and network marketers how he did it. It was important to him to prove that a business model that was built on home meetings and talking to friends and family could also work using the internet.
Knowing that most traditional network marketers are not the biggest fans of internet marketers because most seem to over complicate things, Vince was determined to keep it simple. That is why he launched www.MyInternetTraffficSystem.com (MITS) in November of 2013. MITS has generated millions of dollars in revenue and pays out hundreds of thousands of dollars in commissions every month to over 3,000 members.
Vince Reed now speaks at some of the best live events in the industry and even hosts his own events

RHYTHM Foundation Helps QNET Pays It Forward In Tajikistan
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
In Tajikistan, disability is stigmatised and children are sent to state institutions or hidden away at home. Indeed, social attitudes and stigma plays a significant role in limiting the possibilities for children with special educational needs, here.
Over 125,000 people are registered as special needs in Tajikistan, 19,000 are under sixteen years old and 1,447 children are registered as orphans. Approximately, 2,505 children are registered as living in twenty three different special education institutions. Alas, the data contradicts with reality, as many are not registered or have not been physically seen over the years. Hence, inconsistent, inaccurate, incomplete and out-of- date data are often the root cause of the existing issue.
Very few of these children with special educational needs attend school. Apparently, the standards don’t allow enough flexibility for students who learn differently. But, parents in Tajikistan have begun to stand up for their children’s rights. They advocate for change and betterment, lobby with schools, local authorities and ministries to facilitate the inclusion of their children into mainstream schools.
Together with Association of Parents of Disabled Children (APDC) in Dushanbe, QNET and RYTHM Foundation have embarked on a joint venture in building a tight–knit friendship across Tajikistan and Malaysia to give these
