The Light Committee Adds a New Time-Based Headshot Session
LOS ANGELES (California) and NEW YORK (New York), Aug. 5, 2020, SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE — A headshot studio in Los Angeles, The Light Committee has introduced two new sessions for headshots that do not limit the number of poses or types of content. This allows clients to sign up for sessions that allow them to produce whatever type of content they want, rather than a specific product, such as headshots.

THE NEW ELITE BUSINESS SESSION
A two-and-ahalf hour session allows the client to use that time however they wish, as long as it is within the limitations of the location and studio. It could be three indoor looks, three outdoor looks and a 30-second studio clip. You could also get 2-3 30 second videos and some headshots. You can use any combination that a customer comes up with.
THE NEW ELITE ACTOR SESSION
The session lasts two hours and half. The time can be used for video and/or photography by the actor. An actor who wants to do background work, but also submit for acting jobs is a common example. For background work, the actor will require specific headshots and full-body shots against a background of white. However, they may also need a more commercial or theatrical appearance for their self submission. Any combination that they think up will do. It could be a series of digital model images with both a theatrical and commercial look, and an accompanying slate video.
Session costs $345 with some restrictions. Setting up for video, and then doing a 5-30-second video, can take anywhere from 30-60 minutes depending on the number of takes required by a customer. The same goes for how many looks the client wants to achieve. The time will be consumed if a client wants to change their hairstyle and makeup between looks. A look could take 15 minutes, but it can also last an hour if the client wants to make extensive hair and makeup style changes.

Walmart tomato bisque soup recalled over possible Listeria contamination
Kettle Cuisine LLC has recalled more than 3,300 Marketside Tomato Bisque Soup Kits exclusively sold at Walmart because they may contain Listeria, says a U.S. Food and Drug Administration announcement.
The recall is for 3,240 Marketside Tomato Bisque Soup Kits of 14 ounces, with UPC 194346474004 & a Use-By Date August 22, 2026. These products were sold in select Walmarts across 29 different states between June 30 and July 7.
Kettle Cuisine announced the recall following routine testing that produced a presumed positive result of Listeria monocytogenes. According to the company, it will continue its investigation in conjunction with FDA.
The company confirmed that no illnesses have been linked to the soup.

FOX Business contacted Kettle Cuisine to get more information on the test, whether the positive presumptive result was confirmed or if additional lots of products are currently being tested.
FOX Business reached out to Walmart as well for comment. We asked if all the affected products had been taken off the shelves, and how Walmart is informing customers that may have bought the soup.
Select Walmart stores located in Arkansas, California Colorado Connecticut Delaware Georgia Iowa Illinois Indiana Kansas Kentucky Louisiana Maryland Missouri Mississippi North Carolina New Jersey New Mexico Nevada New York Ohio Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Texas Virginia Vermont Wisconsin West Virginia and West Virginia distributed the affected products.
According to the recall announcement, consumers should not consume, serve, distribute or sell the soup. The product should be disposed of or returned to its place of purchase.
A POPULAR HAIR PRODUCT IS RECALLED NATIONALLY OVER A POTENTIAL HAZARD OF EXPLOSION
Listeria monocytogenes is a serious pathogen that can lead to fatal infections, especially in children and older adults with compromised immune systems. People with healthy immune systems may have short-term symptoms such as fever, headaches, stiffness and nausea. They can also experience abdominal pain, diarrhea, or stomach cramps. According to the recall, infection can cause stillbirth and miscarriage in pregnant women.
The announcement warned consumers not to rely solely on the smell or appearance of the product when determining whether the food is safe. The announcement said that people who handled the soup should clean their hands, and disinfect refrigerators and freezers as well as containers, utensils and countertops.

Massive egg recall in US south and south-west due to salmonella outbreak
The US Food and Drug Administration has raised the warning level for a massive egg recall that affects nearly 1.6 million dozen eggs. This is because officials are investigating a salmonella epidemic which has affected nearly 100 people.
On 12 August, the FDA reclassified a recall on nearly 1.6 million dozen cage-free white and brown eggs due to concerns that they could be contaminated by salmonella.
This recall has been classified as class I by the FDA, meaning that there’s a “reasonable probability” of serious health effects or even death if the product is used or exposed to.
As of 24th July, 98 individuals in 17 states were hospitalized as a result of the recall. Between 21 November 2025 to 30 June 2026, illnesses were reported.
No deaths were reported, although the FDA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are aware of 26 cases hospitalized in connection with this outbreak.
According to an FDA report, Midwest Poultry Services discovered the problem through “proactive monitoring of environmental conditions and root-cause analysis”. The company stopped distributing eggs fresh from Texas farms as of the 22nd July.
The recalled eggs are still a problem because the best before and sell by dates continue through August 17.
Eggs were produced and distributed in Texas to various locations in the US South and Southwest, such as food retail outlets located in Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi.
According to an initial recall notice, the affected eggs are available in Texas and Louisiana Kroger and Brookshire Grocery stores, as well as in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas Brookshire Grocery, Louisiana New Mexico, and Mississippi, as well as in “other smaller retailers.”
In the report, the specific products affected by the recall will be listed. Midwest Poultry Services had previously advised consumers to not eat the eggs that were recalled and to return them back to their place of purchase to receive a refund.
Reclassifying the recall comes at a time when the Trump Administration is dealing with a series of food-related health crises in the US.
In the US, a foodborne disease outbreak has reached a record high. The number of confirmed cases of cyclosporiasis associated with lettuce is now over 13,000! Taylor Farms has been forced to recall products in 26 states due to a salmonella outbreak linked with jalapenos.

Berkshire pads Delta, Alphabet stakes as Abel taps cash pile
Berkshire, which has been led by Abel since he succeeded Warren Buffett in the role of chief executive, added 17.5 millions Delta shares during Abel’s first full quarter. This increased the stake value to $5.37bn at the end June. Alphabet, the third largest holding of Berkshire, was worth $37.8billion at midyear after Abel’s addition of 48.1m shares.
Berkshire spent $4.5 billion repurchasing its stock during the quarter, while acquiring a total of $20 billion in other equity. The company announced these results last week. The company had $365 billion in cash by mid-year. This is down from the record amount of $397 billion it held at the end March.
Abel was able to oversee back-to-back transactions worth billions of dollars in the same period, after Buffett had a relatively quiet deal-making record. Buffett often complained about high market values.
The purchase of Taylor Morrison Home Corp. for $6.8 Billion was a value bet. He also gave $10 Billion to Alphabet as a contribution to its artificial intelligence investments, which is a brand new field to the conglomerate. Taylor Morrison’s transaction was finalized last month.
Berkshire makes a big bet on housing with the Taylor Morrison deal
Berkshire bought additional shares in homebuilder Lennar Corp. during the second quarter. This brings its total holdings to approximately $1.21 billion.
Bank of America Corp. shares now account for 6.8% of total holdings.
According to an independent filing on Friday, Gates Foundation also sold nearly 2.4 million Berkshire class B shares to reduce its stake in the company to $7.35bn at the end the third quarter. Buffett said last month that he did not plan on making any more donations to the charity as Bill Gates’ ties with late sexual offender Jeffrey Epstein have increased scrutiny.

Disney CEO Josh D’Amaro Reports Parks Division Was a ‘Big Surprise’ Last Quarter
Josh D’Amaro, Disney’s CEO since almost six months now, recently discussed his views on the Walt Disney Company.
Josh D’Amaro shares his thoughts about Disney
Josh D’Amaro replaced Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, almost six months back. D’Amaro spoke with CNBC about the Walt Disney Company’s success during D23, this past weekend.
I’m really happy about our earnings call. It’s amazing, you know. Great revenue growth. Earnings growth of 28%. It was a pleasant surprise for people to see the parks. D’Amaro added that the parks continue to generate returns for their company.
Then he continued, “We are delivering everything we promised we would deliver.” I think that there is clarity within the organization as to where we should go. There is a lot of team stability. “I feel pretty good, considering we’ve been here for almost six months.”
His immediate focus since becoming CEO was to maintain momentum in Disney’s key growth areas. This included its theme parks, and streaming divisions. Investors have focused on these areas, with Disney receiving mixed reviews from Wall Street in recent months.
D’Amaro stated yesterday that he was not satisfied with the current stock price. D’Amaro said yesterday that “our investors weren’t pleased with this, but I believe we are in a great position relative to the entertainment sector.”
D’Amaro has also confirmed that he is not interested in spinning off ESPN as a separate company.
Watch for D23 coverage throughout the weekend.

Anthropic revenue jumps to over $11.5 billion in Q2: report
Bloomberg News announced Friday that Anthropic grew its revenue by more than 14 times in the second-quarter compared to a year ago. This highlights the company’s rapid growth as it prepares to launch a potentially blockbuster initial stock offering.
Bloomberg News viewed documents that showed the AI company had reported a preliminary revenue for the latest quarter completed of over $11.5 billion. This is up from $787 millions in the previous quarter and $4.73 in the first three months of 2026.
Documents show that Anthropic had a positive operating profit adjusted in the second quarter. Bloomberg said that the figures were preliminary and may still be revised.
An Anthropic representative did not respond immediately to CNBC’s request for comments.
Anthropic is competing with OpenAI to win corporate clients, and its software has been gaining traction in the professional world.
Anthropic announced in May its revenue run rate had surpassed $47 billion. This is up from the estimated $10 billion revenue for 2025.
Sources told CNBC’s David Faber that Anthropic’s initial meetings with potential investors before its possible IPO were high-level, and did not include discussions of specific financials or a value. The sources claim that Anthropic’s CFO Krishna Rao leads the meetings.
An IPO this autumn could be the start of Anthropic becoming one of major AI private companies that taps public markets. This debut could unlock billions in new capital to help fund the escalating costs of compute infrastructure, build advanced hardware and build data centers.
