SMIRNOFF has announced a new extension of its “Equalizing Music” global campaign through a new partnership with Spotify that promotes equality for women musicians around the world.
According to Spotify data, none of the top 10 most-streamed tracks were performed by women artists or bands in 2017. To help make a difference in the music industry, the makers of SMIRNOFF have teamed up with Spotify to increase representation of women in music by allowing consumers to impact their own listening habits through an industry-first application programming interface (API), dubbed the Smirnoff Equalizer.

Thirteen out of 16 new booster seats for 2017 earn the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's highest rating of BEST BET, bringing the total number of boosters on the market with that designation to 118.
The BEST BET rating means a booster provides good safety belt fit for typical 4 to 8 year-olds in almost any car, minivan or SUV. Boosters that are rated GOOD BETs provide acceptable belt fit in almost any vehicle, while those rated Check Fit could work for some children in some vehicles. Seats designated "Not Recommended" don’t provide good belt fit and should be avoided.
MSC Cruises, the largest privately-owned cruise company in the world, announced today that the first of its next generation “Seaside” class of ships – set to debut in November 2017 – will be named MSC Seaside and sail year-round from Miami to the Caribbean.

During the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics 2017 Food & Nutrition Conference & Expo™ in Chicago, scientists reported on a recent study which uncovered that the intake of pistachios reduces the rise in blood sugar and insulin in women diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM)—commonly known as gestational diabetes. The study, “Effects of Pistachio Intake on Postprandial Blood Glucose Response in Pregnant Women,” found when women who were gestational glucose intolerant (GIGT) or who were diagnosed with GDM ate pistachios, they had a significantly lower rise in blood glucose levels compared to eating whole wheat bread that was matched for calories.

This is my 2nd song for 2017 .... I have a best friend who I go cruising with every weekend and we listen to each others music "What we've accomplished in 1 week" and he believes that this is my best song to date. I guess that I'll find out soon enough what the good people of Youtube think. With my luck, there will surely be some who will think that this is a video about flowers and they'll tell me to next time, include chrysanthemums.
Lyrics
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I love you just as everybody do.
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I see you as I shout "Peekaboo."
Jenny Jenny lives in the poorest part of town. She has no bike or no way to get around
but when she walk's the streets of the town to buy her bread. lords and kings politely bow their heads to

I confess, I'm so in love with "Little yodel lady who? Little Yodel Lady you.
Little yodel lady, little yodel lady, Little Yodel Lady Hoo.
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I love you just as everybody do.
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I see you as I shout "Peekaboo."
Jenny Jenny sits on a bench in the square, feeding doves and pigeons everywhere
but when she takes her bread and lays it to the ground, all the doves and pigeons gather round to
Jenny Jenny, there's so many fellas after you. Jenny, I don't think there's anything that I can do.
cuz I'm a mess and so obsessed with "Little yodel lady who? Little Yodel Lady you.
Little yodel lady, little yodel lady, Little Yodel Lady Hoo.
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I love you just as everybody do.
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I see you as I shout "Peekaboo."
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I love you just as everybody do.
Yo Jenny, know Jenny everywhere you go Jenny, I see you as I shout "Peekaboo."
