No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies is a book by the Canadian author Naomi Klein. First published by Knopf Canada and Picador in December 1999, shortly after the 1999 WTO Ministerial Conference protests in Seattle had generated media attention around such issues, it became one of the most influential books about the alter-globalization movement and an international bestseller; the book focuses on branding and makes connections with the anti-globalization movement. Throughout the four parts, Klein writes about issues such as sweatshops in the Americas and Asia, culture jamming, corporate censorship, Reclaim the Streets, she pays special attention to the deeds and misdeeds of Nike, The Gap, McDonald's, Microsoft – and of their lawyers and advertising agencies. Many of the ideas in Klein's book derive from the influence of the Situationists, an art/political group founded in the late 1950s. However, while globalization appears as a recurring theme, Klein addresses the topic of globalization itself, when she does, it is indirectly.

She goes on to discuss globalization in much greater detail in her book and Windows. The book comprises four sections: "No Space", "No Choice", "No Jobs", "No Logo"; the first three deal with the negative effects of brand-oriented corporate activity, while the fourth discusses various methods people have taken in order to fight back. The book begins by tracing the history of brands. Klein argues that there has been a shift in the usage of branding and gives examples of this shift to "anti-brand" branding. Early examples of brands were used to put a recognizable face on factory-produced products; these gave way to the idea of selling lifestyles. According to Klein, in response to an economic crash in the 1980s, corporations began to rethink their approach to marketing and to target the youth demographic, as opposed to the baby boomers, considered a much more valuable segment; the book discusses how brand names such as Nike or Pepsi expanded beyond the mere products which bore their names, how these names and logos began to appear everywhere.

As this happened, the brands' obsession with the youth market drove them to further associate themselves with whatever the youth considered "cool". Along the way, the brands attempted to associate their names with everything from movie stars and athletes to grassroots social movements. Klein argues that large multinational corporations consider the marketing of a brand name to be more important than the actual manufacture of products; this section looks at ways in which brands have "muscled" their presence into the school system, how in doing so, they have pipelined advertisements into the schools and used their position to gather information about the students. Klein argues that this is part of a trend toward targeting younger consumers. In the second section, Klein discusses how brands use their size and clout to limit the number of choices available to the public – whether through market dominance or through aggressive invasion of a region. Klein argues. Meanwhile, other corporations, such as Sony or Disney open their own chains of stores, preventing the competition from putting their products on the shelves.

This section discusses the way that corporations merge with one another in order to add to their ubiquity and provide greater control over their image. ABC News, for instance, is under pressure not to air any stories that are overly critical of Disney, its parent company. Other chains, such as Wal-Mart threaten to pull various products off their shelves, forcing manufacturers and publishers to comply with their demands; this might mean driving down manufacturing costs or changing the artwork or content of products like magazines or albums so they better fit with Wal-Mart's image of family friendliness. Discussed is the way that corporations abuse copyright laws in order to silence anyone who might attempt to criticize their brand. In this section, the book takes a darker tone and looks at the way in which manufacturing jobs move from local factories to foreign countries, to places known as export processing zones; such zones have no labor laws, leading to dire working conditions. The book shifts back to North America, where the lack of manufacturing jobs has led to an influx of work in the service sector, where most of the jobs are for minimum wage and offer no benefits.

The term "McJob" is introduced, defined as a job with poor compensation that does not keep pace with inflation, inflexible or undesirable hours, little chance of advancement, high levels of stress. Meanwhile, the public is being sold the perception that these jobs are temporary employment for students and recent graduates, therefore need not offer living wages or benefits. All of this is set against a backdrop of massive profits and wealth being produced within the corporate sector; the result is a new generation of employees who have come to resent the success of the companies they work for. This resentment, along with rising unemployment, labour abuses abroad, disregard for the environment, the ever-increasing presence of advertising breeds a new disdain for corporations; the final section of the book discusses various movements that have spru

On 21 January 1939, the Imperial Airways Short Empire flying boat Cavalier, en route from New York City to Bermuda, lost power to its engines and ditched in heavy seas 285 miles southeast of New York. She subsequently sank with the loss of three lives. Ten hours ten survivors were picked up by the tanker Esso Baytown. Cavalier was a Short Empire flying boat with the registration G-ADUU, launched on 21 November 1936 and delivered to Imperial Airways. In 1937, Imperial Airways and Pan American World Airways had opened up a London-New York-Bermuda flying-boat passenger service. Imperial Airways used Cavalier on the route. Shipped by sea to Bermuda, she operated on the route for the first time on a survey flight on 25 May 1937. On the day of the incident, Cavalier left Port Washington on Long Island, New York, at 10:38 bound for Bermuda. At 12:23 p.m. the flying boat sent the message Running into bad weather. May have to earth. Severe Static. Port Washington did not get a reply. At 12:57 Cavalier broadcast.

Altitude 1,500 ft. Forced landing in a few minutes. Another message eight minutes said she was still flying but on two engines; the last message, at 13:13, was the single word Sinking. As soon as it was realised at Port Washington that Cavalier was going to land in the sea, Port Washington requested a Pan American World Airways Sikorsky S-42 flying boat from Hamilton, Bermuda, to go to her assistance; the United States Coast Guard sent a flying boat from Long Island to Cavalier's last known position but it did not find her. A United States Army Air Corps Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bomber made a sortie from Langley Field in Virginia to search for Cavalier but had to return before midnight without success. Other aircraft tried in vain to find the Cavalier; the US Coast Guard despatched two cutters and two patrol boats to the scene. The commercial tanker Esso Baytown was the first to arrive at the scene of the accident and reported at 23:25 that she had sighted wreckage and had lowered her lifeboats.

By listening for the sound of their cries – they were in fact singing – Esso Baytown rescued six passengers and four members of the crew who had clung together on the water for ten hours. The United States Navy gunboat USS Erie transferred a doctor to Esso Baytown but because of the high seas and darkness had to discontinue the search for any other survivors; the ten survivors were taken to New York, arriving on 23 January 1939. The British Air Ministry's Inspector of Accidents reported that the accident had been caused by icing in the carburetters of all four engines; this caused a full loss of power in the inboard engines and partial loss in the outer. The inspector recommended that extra heating of carburetters and of the incoming air be provided and that a temperature indicator be installed, he advised that passengers should be instructed in the fastening of lifebelts and the location of emergency exits and recommended the provision of extra life-saving equipment like rafts and pyrotechnic signals and that passengers should fasten safety belts at take-off and alighting

Bleiddud was Bishop of St David's in Wales from 1061 to 1071. Little is known of him, his name is sometimes given as Bedwd. The name Bleiddud appears to be derived from the Welsh blaidd and tud, tribe or the territory of a tribe. A bishop of the diocese named Joseph died in 1061, Bleiddud was his successor, he is reported to have been consecrated by Æthelnoth, archbishop of Canterbury, who died in 1038, suggesting that he was translated to St David's having been a bishop elsewhere. The chapter of St David's, in an address to Pope Eugenius III of the year 1145, stated that a man named Melan of Llanelwy was consecrated bishop of St Asaph by Bleiddud while he was bishop of St David's; this event has been dated to about the year 1070. A "Bishop Begard" is addressed in a Coventry writ of Edward the Confessor of 1060, concerning the king's grant of judicial rights to Bromfield Minster in Shropshire, it has been suggested that this is an error for Bleiddud. According to the Annales Cambriae, Bleiddud died in 1071 and was succeeded as Bishop of St David's by Sulien.

According to the account of Brut y Tywysogion for the year 1071, 1071: Then, a year after that, the French ravaged Ceredigion and Dyved, Menevia and Bangor were laid waste by the Pagans. And Bleiddud, bishop of Menevia, died. By the ninth century, the right of the clergy to marry was well established in Wales, an entry in the Book of St Chad records the grant of freedom to Bleiddud, son of Sulien, this being the Sulien who succeeded Bishop Bleiddud. Gerald of Wales notes that at the time it was usual for sons to follow fathers in church benefices; the Book of Llandaff, dating from around 1125 records a "decree of the liberty of Bleiddud and his offspring"
