MBABANE – Set to conquer Africa!
The African Women Designers Week (AWDW) has partnered with the Eswatini National Council of Arts and Culture(ENCAC). This partnership will see 30 local models and 10 designers, who are yet still to be selected, to travel Mozambique on October 27-28 for a conference that will empower them on the topics of gender-based violence (GBV), sex abuse, and premature marriage. AWDW, a GreenWaves African brand, is an annual multicultural event organised by GreenWaves in partnership with the Trans African Centre for Development (TRACED Maputo). It’s aimed at raising awareness about GBV, sexual abuse of the African girl child, fighting against premature unions, and empowering African women and men through skill acquisition workshops, conferences, business forums and a fashion and art exhibition show. AWDW seeks to foster dialogue, empower individuals affected by GBV and create a business-friendly environment for brands, institutions, and organisations to thrive and make a social impact.
The 40 local creatives will be part of this year’s conference, which will be held at the Gloria Hotel in Maputo, Mozambique. The recruiting of the models for the upcoming conference was announced by GreenWaves Coordinator Okenchukwi Kaise Enyinnah, who cited that the conference will include a fashion and art show with industry players in attendance, highlighting designers and artists from different African countries and cultures. “It will promote cultural creativity and entrepreneurship and create direct relationship opportunities for organisations, institutions, and brands like yours to interact with participants.
“Community outreach is an integral part of our mission. We are committed to engaging with and supporting local communities to address the issues of GBV and premature unions. Through our community outreach initiatives, we strive to create awareness on GBV and ways to report cases, and offer food resources to rural families,” Enyinnah said. He went on to share that they would also have an awards night where achievements would be celebrated. “We will also have a gala, also known as awards night, which is the last activity, celebrating achievements and recognising exceptional contributions across various fields. It honours creative talents, advocates for gender equality, and fosters networking opportunities among diverse esteemed guests.
AWDW engages over 2000 participants aged 18–50 every year, both directly and indirectly. Some of the participants in AWDW events are government delegates, ambassadors, and their diplomats,” shared Enyinnah. He further shared that on a date yet to be announced, they will also have two local designers and two models, male and female, travelling to Guinea for a fashion showcase on a date yet to be communicated. This will be through the newly-formed partnership.

Regional State Administrative Agencies coordinate alcohol licencing in Finland based on the Finnish Alcohol Act and associated rules and regulations. The objective of the Alcohol Act is to control the consumption of alcohol so as to prevent detrimental societal, social and health effects caused by alcoholic substances.
Regional State Administrative Agencies employ around 50 alcohol licensing professionals.
We are Finland’s competent authority for licensing alcohol sales on and off premises. We also handle requests to modify licensed premises and to amend on-sales and off-sales alcohol licences.
We base all our decisions on alcohol licence applications on a careful examination of the prospective licensee’s background and circumstances. Our processing fees are based on the Finnish Ministry of Finance’s annual decrees on charges payable for the services of Regional State Administrative Agencies. The same fee applies regardless of whether or not an application is successful. In addition, all licensed premises are subject to an annual supervisory fee.
We enforce the rules on alcohol sales on and off premises. Our licensing and enforcement work is coordinated by Finland’s National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health. Our aim is to apply the same procedures all across the country.
Register of Alcohol Licensees
Regional State Administrative Agencies and the National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health have set up a special database called the Register of Alcohol Licensees. The register contains the details of all individuals who have applied for or been issued an alcohol licence. The National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health acts as the primary controller of the system.

The New York Timesreports that members of a classified military intelligence programcalled Able Danger contacted the FBI in 2000 with detailedinformation about a terrorist cell that involved theringleader of the 911 terrorist attacks, Mohammed Atta.
Lawyers at the Special Operations Command of the DefenseDepartment refused to allow Lt. Colonel Anthony Shaffer totransmit the crucial information to the FBI. The reasongiven was that they “feared controversy” if Able Danger wasrevealed to be monitoring people who were legally present inthe United States.
The 911 Commission, which was in possession of thisinformation, stated in its report that American intelligenceagencies had not identified Atta prior to the September 11attack. A commission spokesman would not respond to theTimes’ attempts to gain clarification.
This is now the fourth known major intelligence failureregarding 911. Recently, it was revealed the the FAAreported 52 specific threats prior to 911, to the effectthat terrorists were planning to fly planes into tallbuildings in the US, some of them specfically mentioning theWorld Trade Center. Condoleeza Rice, who was the President’sNational Security Adviser at the time, testified before thecommission that the Administration was surprised that theTrade Center had been attacked, and that there had been noprior warning.
At the time of her testimony, the FAA reports wereclassified. They were only released after the election.Whether or not the classification of the reports was legalremains an unaddressed question, but certainly Ms. Rice musthave known of them prior to her testimony before Congress.
In 2002, FBI Legal Counsel Colleen Rowley made internationalheadlines by detailing how the FBI could have prevented the911 disaster, and internal FBI documents reveal that crucialinformation sent by an agent in Minnesota concerning theactivities of Mohammed Atta was ignored.
Now a new report by Justice Department Inspector GeneralGlenn A. Finestates that the FBI missed at least fivechances to detect the presence of two of the suicidehijackers — Nawaf Alhazmi and Khalid Almihdhar — afterthey first entered the United States in early 2000.
One of the things that led to the creation of the Departmentof Homeland Security was Rowley’s testimony about FBIfailures and her recommendation that a special agency beevolved to engage in anti-terrorist activities in the US.
Instead, the Department of Homeland Security is a large,cumbersome organization that oversees some intelligenceactivity, while the National Intelligence Director isresponsible for co-ordination between various intelligenceagencies.
The system is slow and inefficient. Only recently has theDepartment of Homeland Security begun to install monitorsalong US borders and in ports that would detect nuclearweapons. It has been obvious since September 12, 2001, thatthis was imperative. Instead, the Administration has draggedits heels for nearly five years, meaning that terroristshave had more than ample time to bring such materials intothe country.

AutoX is planning to install Level 4 autonomous commercial vehicles with the help of Dongfeng motors
According to 36Kr, autonomous driving Solution Company "AutoX" announced that it had received USD tens of millions of dollars in A3 rounds of financing from Dongfeng a few months ago. After the financing, Dongfeng and AutoX together plan to mass-produce Level 4 autonomous commercial vehicles. AutoX also plans to expand to the domestic market in Shenzhen.
The driverless solution company was founded in 2016 by Xiao Jianxiong, a former assistant professor of Princeton University, the alumnus of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology has built the company to make driverless technology accessible worldwide.
AutoX completed its USD 34 million A round of funding in 2017 and its investors include MediaTek and SAIC Capital, an investment firm of the state-owned Chinese carmaker.
It announced the two top domestic carmakers, SAIC and Dongfeng, as its strategic shareholders, which is similar to the cooperation strategy between, Cruise Automation, an American driverless car company, GM and Honda. XIAO Jianxiong, founder and CEO of the company, said that they are talking with other domestic and foreign car manufacturers and want to make the driverless technology a common platform, just like the Windows system installed in the car.
In addition to the cooperation with SAIC and Dongfeng, reported by the company itself, on March 28 BYD, the world’s largest manufacturer of electric vehicles announced a partnership with AutoX to design its fully electric sedan “Qin pro”.

According to ZTnet, in late August 2018, Autox announced began delivering groceries via its Level 4 autonomous vehicles in San Jose. Unlike most self-driving companies, which use laser arrays and sophisticated sensors, AutoX uses comparatively cheap cameras and relies on its AI to navigate the world around it.
Officials of the company claim that AutoX is the only Chinese autonomous company to be certified by the US Department of Transportation and The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration L4 driverless standards. The standard is the most stringent security requirement issued worldwide by an authoritative government department. This standard is the most strict security requirement issued by authoritative government agencies around the world.
AutoX has entered into a new round of financing up to hundreds of millions of dollars they, using it for talents recruitment in technology, operations, business, and government relations, and plans to expand the team to hundreds of people, AutoX officially announced.
The company is among quite a few autonomous driving start-ups that have come to existence in China after the country made smart vehicles one of its key development areas. It rivals with; Roadstar, Pony.ai, and Momenta.

On May 17, 1954, the United States Supreme Court ruled, in the landmark case of Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka, that “separate but equal” educational facilities were “inherently unequal,” and therefore segregation in public education was unconstitutional. Chief Justice Earl Warren wrote the overriding decision, and Thurgood Marshall headed the legal defense team of the NAACP.
The 1954 United States Supreme Court decision in Oliver L. Brown et.al. v. the Board of Education of Topeka (KS) et.al. is among the most significant judicial turning points in the development of our country. Originally led by Charles H. Houston, and later Thurgood Marshall and a formidable legal team, it dismantled the legal basis for racial segregation in schools and other public facilities. By declaring that the discriminatory nature of racial segregation … “violates the 14th amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees all citizens equal protection of the laws,” Brown v. Board of Education laid the foundation for shaping future national and international policies regarding human rights.
Picture on right: George E.C. Hayes, Thurgood Marshall, and James Nabrit, congratulating each other, following Supreme Court decision declaring segregation unconstitutional, 1954.
Brown v. Board of Education was not simply about children and education. The laws and policies struck down by this court decision were products of the human tendencies to prejudge, discriminate against, and stereotype other people by their ethnic, religious, physical, or cultural characteristics. Ending this behavior as a legal practice caused far reaching social and ideological implications, which continue to be felt throughout our country. The Brown decision inspired and galvanized human rights struggles across the country and around the world.
What this legal challenge represents is at the core of United States history and the freedoms we enjoy. The U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown began a critical chapter in the maturation of our democracy. It reaffirmed the sovereign power of the people of the United States in the protection of their natural rights from arbitrary limits and restrictions imposed by state and local governments. These rights are recognized in the Declaration of Independence and guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution.
While this case was an important historic milestone, it is often misunderstood. Over the years, the facts pertaining to the Brown case have been overshadowed by myths and mischaracterizations:
- Brown v. Board of Education was not the first challenge to school segregation. As early as 1849, African Americans filed suit against an educational system that mandated racial segregation, in the case of Roberts v. City of Boston.
- Oliver Brown, the case namesake, was just one of the nearly 200 plaintiffs from five states who were part of the NAACP cases brought before the Supreme Court in 1951. The Kansas case was named for Oliver Brown as a legal strategy to have a man head the plaintiff roster.
The Brown decision initiated educational and social reform throughout the United States and was a catalyst in launching the modern Civil Rights Movement. Bringing about change in the years since the Brown case continues to be difficult. But the Brown v. Board of Education victory brought this country one step closer to living up to its democratic ideas.
Thurgood Marshall was America’s leading radical. He led a civil rights revolution in the 20th century that forever changed the landscape of American society. But he is the least well known of the three leading black figures of this century. Martin Luther King Jr., with his preachings of love and non-violent resistance, and Malcolm X, the fiery street preacher who advocated a bloody overthrow of the system, are both more closely associate in the popular mind and myth with the civil rights struggle. But it was Thurgood Marshall, working through the courts to eradicate the legacy of slavery and destroying the racist segregation system of Jim Crow, who had an even more profound and lasting effect on race relations than either of King or X.
It was Marshall who ended legal segregation in the United States. He won Supreme Court victories breaking the color line in housing, transportation and voting, all of which overturned the ‘Separate-but-Equal’ apartheid of American life in the first half of the century. It was Marshall who won the most important legal case of the century, Brown v. Board of Education, ending the legal separation of black and white children in public schools. The success of the Brown case sparked the 1960s civil rights movement, led to the increased number of black high school and college graduates and the incredible rise of the black middle-class in both numbers and political power in the second half of the century.
And it was Marshall, as the nation’s first African-American Supreme Court justice, who promoted affirmative action — preferences, set-asides and other race conscious policies — as the remedy for the damage remaining from the nation’s history of slavery and racial bias. Justice Marshall gave a clear signal that while legal discrimination had ended, there was more to be done to advance educational opportunity for people who had been locked out and to bridge the wide canyon of economic inequity between blacks and whites.
He worked on behalf of black Americans, but built a structure of individual rights that became the cornerstone of protections for all Americans. He succeeded in creating new protections under law for women, children, prisoners, and the homeless. Their greater claim to full citizenship in the republic over the last century can be directly traced to Marshall. Even the American press had Marshall to thank for an expansion of its liberties during the century.
Marshall’s lifework, then, literally defined the movement of race relations through the century. He rejected King’s peaceful protest as rhetorical fluff that accomplished no permanent change in society. And he rejected Malcolm X’s talk of violent revolution and a separate black nation as racist craziness in a multi-racial society.
The key to Marshall’s work was his conviction that integration — and only integration — would allow equal rights under the law to take hold. Once individual rights were accepted, in Marshall’s mind, then blacks and whites could rise or fall based on their own ability.
Marshall’s deep faith in the power of racial integration came out of a middle class black perspective in turn of the century Baltimore. He was the child of an activist black community that had established its own schools and fought for equal rights from the time of the Civil War. His own family, of an interracial background, had been at the forefront of demands by Baltimore blacks for equal treatment. Out of that unique family and city was born Thurgood Marshall, the architect of American race relations in the twentieth century. Marshall died in 1993.

How we work
The introduction of technologies in the daily lives of people has allowed changes in how they learn. Currently, learning situations beyond the limits of formal education, and for that to happen technologies have an important role. In this sense, the identification of phenomena related the experiences of learning supported by technology both in formal and in informal has been growing under investigation. Therefore, this line of research aims to investigate the learning experiences and develop methodological interaction studies using qualitative and quantitative approaches related to the use of computing artifacts in education.

AN innocent family has been targeted by a pipebomb -- three doors away from a house recently bombed by Dee Dee O'Driscoll's gang.
The army bomb squad defused a pipebomb on Rossmore Drive in Ballyfermot yesterday -- the same street where associates of gangster O'Driscoll detonated a similiar device under a car just a fortnight ago.
The viable explosive device, which had the potential to maim or kill, was discovered in the front garden of a house yesterday just after 11am.
It was one of three bombs found in the city in a 12-hour period yesterday. The two other devices were discovered in the same laneway in Finglas.
The family who live in the Ballyfermot house did not want to comment on the find today, but a very distressed occupant said they could not understand why they were targeted.
The family has no links to any criminals and gardai believe the house was picked out in error.
CCTV in the Rossmore area is not believed to have picked up any images of the device being placed yesterday.
Two further viable bombs were discovered in Finglas last night and were dealt with by the Defence Force's Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team.

New Hampshire DUI Lawyers
The New Hampshire DUI Attorneys at Tenn And Tenn, P.A. have devoted their practice to defending the rights of those accused of driving under the influence. Our attorneys make it their business to know the ins and outs of the DUI process, from arrest and incarceration, to court and DMV Hearings, to final sentencing and restitution. Our experience has afforded us with knowledge and insight into the DUI/DWI process that few others can match. As a service to our readers, we have created this website as an avenue for those who have been accused of DUI in New Hampshire to obtain valuable information.
The statutory laws and Supreme Court decisions concerning "drunk driving" have changed significantly over recent years. Today, a person arrested in New Hampshire for driving under the influence of alcohol ("DUI" or "DWI") faces complicated procedures and potentially severe punishment.Assert Your Rights Against a DUI Charge
The consequences of these arrests can have a lasting effect on an individual's life and livelihood long after the court sentences have been fulfilled and the fines have been paid. While the safety of those traveling on our highways is of the utmost importance, what about the rights of those individuals that are wrongly accused of driving under the influence? It's an unfortunate reality that in many instances the tactics and devices which law enforcement officers use to determine if an individual is intoxicated are wildly inaccurate. The end result; false accusations are made -- and arrests take place that never should have.
After you are initially stopped by the police, you will be asked incriminating questions without any Miranda advisement of rights and without any immediate right to consult with an attorney. You will then be subjected to a series of "field sobriety tests" under physically and emotionally difficult conditions -- tests which may be nearly impossible for most people to satisfactorily perform under the best of circumstances. You may then be given a hand-held preliminary breath test ("PBT").What Happens After the Arrest
After being arrested, you will be requested to submit to breath or blood testing, usually at the police station -- and, again, without any right to speak with a New Hampshire DUI lawyer. Contrary to popular belief, the breathalyzers used by the police are not always accurate and many officers administering them are unfamiliar with the proper procedures. If you refuse, or if the police feel you are not cooperating to their satisfaction, a blood test is often requested. If the breath test is .08% or over, or if there is a blood sample withdrawn or a refusal reported, the police may confiscate your license and issue you a notice of suspension and a 30-day temporary license.
After being charged with DUI in New Hampshire, you now face two battles. First, you must deal with a criminal prosecution in state court. If the breath or blood test was .08% or over, you will also be charged with the so-called "per se" offense, driving with .08% or over blood-alcohol.Fighting a License Suspension
Second, you must deal with a potential administrative license suspension from the New Hampshire Division of Motor Vehicles ("DMV"). If the breath test was over .08%, or over .02% if under the age of 21, or if there was a blood sample withdrawn or a refusal reported, the police will confiscate your license and issue you a notice of suspension and 30-day temporary license. A first offense DWI/DUI involves a potential six month suspension from the DMV; a refusal or a second offense within ten years of a prior conviction triggers a potential two-year suspension. These suspensions may be successfully contested by an experienced NH DUI attorney; but, it is critical that you or, preferably, your attorney, contact the DMV immediately to request a hearing. The importance of this cannot be overstated; absent a timely request, there will be no hearing and the suspension will automatically take effect 30 days after the arrest or results of the blood test.What Our Clients Say
"When I was charged with DWI, I felt like my life was over. I knew I was facing a lengthy court suspension as well as a six (6) month loss of license from the DMV. Hiring Attorney John Tenn was the best thing I could have ever done. To this day, I am amazed that we won the Administrative License Suspension Hearing and, with Attorney John Tenn's help, I was found not guilty of DWI. I am very grateful and appreciate all that Attorney Tenn has done for me.

"I am so lucky to have been able to perform almost a thousand times on your wonderful stage where many a great actor, comedian and variety performer has gone before me. You have a glorious History and I'm honoured to be part of that.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all those times I've been lost in your wonderful ceiling (I don't mean the Attic, although I was trapped there once with Tom Lister during a Ghost Tour) staring at your art work and admiring your ornate plaster decorations.
Thank you also to the Charitable Trust and all those "Friends of the Grand" who ensure that The Grand Theatre continues to thrive.
"Here's to the next 125 years."
Kenny Mew, general manager at Blackpool Tower, said: “It is incredible to have two iconic landmarks like The Grand Theatre and The Blackpool Tower celebrate their 125th birthday this year.“There is such a rich shared history between the two so it feels right to pay tribute today to the people that make it special.“On behalf of everyo
Former headmaster of King Edward VII School in Lytham and organiser of Lytham Hall’s open air season Julian Wilde added: “I am a bit of a fan of The Grand Theatre, which is central to the whole entertainment industry in Blackpool.
“I love the way that it has such a diverse and appealing programme - local, national and international - throughout the year.
“Where else has had Sir Ken Dodd, the Moldova National Ballet, the Royal Shakespeare Company and The Blackpool Scout Gang Show as regular attractions?
“It lives up to its name as the National Theatre of Variety. My congratulations to all the Friends of the Grand who work so hard to sustain it as a centre of excellence.”
Councillor Gillian Campbell, deputy leader of Blackpool Council added: “On behalf of Blackpool Council, we would like to wish the Grand Theatre Blackpool a fantastic Happy 125th Birthday.
"This iconic venue has played host to some of the most amazing performers over its 125 years and here’s to another 125.”
But the Grand’s story has had anything but the perfect script.
There have been highs and lows, the successes and failures, troubles and strife but a lot of magic too.
It began as a rags to riches tale, a simple clerk Thomas Sergenson set out with a vision to turn showman and build his own theatre in 1894.
Such was his ambition to create his masterpiece, he secured the talents of Frank Matcham – the finest architect of the Victorian era – to fulfil his dream. Today, audiences still marvel at the intricacy of its design, for every seat in this magnificent theatre comes with a view.
As the Grand’s chief executive Ruth Eastwood, its trustees and ‘Friends of The Grand’ embark on a new era for the spectacular venue she says: “We want to talk about and to the people who have been instrumental in the past but moving the theatre forward and helping support it day after day so that we can say the first 125 years were just the beginning.”

Thanks in part to the presidential race, viewership was up for the three major cable news channels in 2015, with the first bump in daytime news audience growth in three years for the top three cable news operations in terms of viewership.
That is according to the latest Pew State of the News Media report, issued Wednesday (June 15).
The total average viewership over a 24-hour period for Fox News Channel, CNN and MSNBC combined was up 7% in 2015 to 1.9 million over the year before, according to weighted data from Nielsen, and up 8% in prime time.
Fox News Channel continued to lead the way with 1.1 million average viewers, up 3%. CNN showed the greatest increase, up 23% to 490,000. MSNBC was up 2% to 352,000.
In prime time, the key ad daypart, FNC, CNN and MSNBC combined for an average 3.1 million viewers. FNC remained the clear leader at 1.8 million, up 3% over 2014. CNN was the big percentage gainer in prime time, up 38% to an average 712,000. MSNBC was down 1% to 579,000.
Those viewership increases translated to a projected revenue increase of 10% in 2015 to $4 billion, with FNC claiming the lion's share of that at $2.3 billion, up 14%, followed by CNN, up 6% to $1.2 billion, and MSNBC, up 3% to $518 billion.
FNC was also projected to lead the way in terms of both increased subscriber fees, up 17% to $1.4 billion, and ad revenues, up 6% to $844 million.
CNN had the strongest growth rate in ad revenue, up 11% to $377 million.
FNC was way ahead in terms of profitability, at $1.5 billion, up 21%. CNN was projected to grow its profit by 17% to 381 million, while MSNBC was projected to be up 10% to $227 million.
FNC also led the way in terms of projected spending increases on news, up 3% to $828 million. CNN was not far behind, up 2% to $817 million. MSNBC was projected to be down slightly (1%) to $291 million.
Among financial news channels, CNBC was the revenue leader in 2015 with $733 million, up a projected 4% over 2014, followed by Fox Business Network at $236 million, up 15%; and Bloomberg TV, up a projected 3% to $197 million.
Al Jazeera, which shut down in April, was projected to have increased its revenue by 17% in 2015, but Pew provided no dollar figure.
On the digital side, ComScore data suggests a large and mobile news audience. NBCU (which includes MSNBC digital), Turner (CNN) and Fox News Digital all were ranked in the top 50 digital media properties in the U.S., according to traffic data from January.

When Rick Jordan last saw Juliana Schubert 12 years ago, the Arlington woman was visibly shaken, and claiming that her husband, David, had just threatened her life.
"She was upset. She was crying," Jordan testified Wednesday. "She came to talk to me. She said David had threatened her and the kids with a gun."
Jordan, a building contractor and Schubert family friend, said he told the 30-year-old mother of two young boys that she needed to take her children to a safe place and obtain a restraining order.
Juliana Schubert drove away from the job site where Jordan was working that day in late June 1989. He hasn’t seen or heard from her since.
The testimony came as Snohomish County prosecutors continued to try to build an entirely circumstantial case that David Schubert, 62, killed his wife and hid her body. No trace of the missing woman has ever been found.
Schubert has pleaded innocent to the first-degree murder charge and insists his wife simply walked away from their home, leaving behind her car, cash and sons, who were then ages 6 and 8.
Jordan said he couldn’t be sure what day the missing woman told him about the incident with the gun and her husband, but he thought it likely was on June 30, 1989.
That’s the day prosecutors allege Schubert killed his wife after she returned from her job at an Everett office.
That also is the day Myron "Fritz" Wenrich testified he received an early morning phone call from Juliana Schubert, with whom he’d earlier had a brief affair. She was crying and "very upset," but wouldn’t tell him why, he told jurors earlier this week.
Jurors on Wednesday also listened to witnesses describe how Juliana Schubert was a devoted mother who spent most school days volunteering time in her children’s classrooms.
Among those testifying was her younger sister, Myra Faulconer, who said the missing woman had been close with her siblings and mother.
After his wife disappeared, Schubert told investigators his wife was estranged from her family, jurors have been told.
The trial is expected to last up to two weeks.

Vice launched a gender-inclusive free stock photo library
The collection features trans and nonbinary models and is made available to the public for free, making it an excellent resource for journalists, editors, social media managers, nonprofit organizations and others who may be looking for inclusive stock images.
The library contains over 180 images of 15 trans and non-binary models, shot by artist and photographer Zackary Drucker. These images have been made available to other media organizations through a Creative Commons license, according to Broadly.
“We really wanted to show that trans people are real people with fully lived lives,” Broadly editor-in-chief Lindsay Schrupp tells Columbia Journalism Review. “And we wanted to represent trans and non-binary people in positions of power, as doctors and CEOs.”
According to a representative from Shutterstock, there was a 64 percent increase in “transgender” as a search term in February as compared to the same time last year, and image searches for “gender fluid” on Getty Images tripled between June 2017 and June 2018.
Broadly encourages people to use these images beyond stories exclusive to the trans and nonbinary community, such as stories on topics like beauty, work, education, relationships or wellness. “Including transgender and non-binary people in stories not explicitly about gender identity paints a more accurate depiction of the world we live in today,” it says on the website outlining guidelines for usage.
Every photo in the library includes an image description, including each model’s gender identification in the caption of each photo, in order to help editors avoid making assumptions when choosing images.
“We wanted to start helping the rest of the industry hold themselves accountable, too,” Schrupp tells CJR. “And we know that the media can still do better in avoiding harmful stereotypes by not misgendering.”
We hope to see The Gender Spectrum expand in the future to include even more images that represent real people, including visibly disabled trans and nonbinary people. We also hope the launch of The Gender Spectrum will encourage more people and media companies to create inclusive and varied stock photo libraries.

It used to be that customer service in the fashion world came via in-store attention from salespeople who knew how to cater to their special customer’s specific tastes. Today, people still appreciate that level of customer service, but with so much of today’ new fashion being offered via ecommerce, the business model has had to change. Keeping competitive in the online fashion world today means catering to customer tastes, especially since amazon.com now has a 20 percent share of all the online fashion business globally. Startup companies today are advised that only those that can offer unique brand appeal, last mile service and incredible customer experiences will really be able to compete in the online fashion world. And all of that is really just for starters.
So how does a new ecommerce fashion brand break through to customers today? The Fabletics brand is one company that is doing it, with huge growth coming in after just three years of being in business. Right now the company is valued at $250 million, which is an amazing achievement, especially in this very competitive business.
Appealing to Active Women
The idea behind Fabletics, which was co-founded by actress Kate Hudson with her partners, was to give women highly fashionable active wear that doubles as clothing for work or casual social events. All this, at a price that is affordable to women at every socio-economic level.
One of the attractive aspects of Fabletics is its engagement with customers through its VIP monthly service. Every month VIP subscribers receive a selection of clothing specially curated by Hudson herself. These selections are geared to the customer’s specific workout needs, which are communicated to the company via an enrollment questionnaire. This special level of service has made the company very popular with customers, who enjoy having a high level of customer care at an affordable price.
Kate Hudson is also an asset to the company as a spokesperson. Her active, athletic lifestyle and positive spirit make her an attractive figure for a company that is serving the needs of women who are living an active lifestyle themselves.
As the Fabletics brand moves forward, there’s no doubt it will continue to innovate and grow as it keeps up with the tastes and desires of its customer bases. Despite the odds against success in today’s competitive online environment, Fabletics is succeeding and making a difference.


A group of 150 monks from Thailand on Thursday visited Julian Stupa in Khanpur, a globally renowned Buddhist heritage site.
The delegation led by the most celebrated Buddhist monk, Arayawangso, visited different parts of the Stupa and performed various religious rituals.
Sub Regional Officer of the Archeology Department of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Hazara Division, Nawazuddin, along with other key officials, welcomed the delegation upon its arrival at the site. Later, he briefed the monks about the sites.
While addressing the group of monks, he underlined that the provincial government has taken special safety measures to protect these treasured historical places.
It was the first time a dignified monk was visiting Buddhist sacred places in the company of such a large delegation, spreading message of peace and harmony, he highlighted. The monks visited different religious places of Buddhist origin in Hazara as well as other districts of KP to perform religious rituals.
“They mediated and carried out research work at seven world heritage sites, particularly Julian, Bhamala in Haripur, 11 sites in Taxila and others in Swat, TakhtBahi and Peshawar valley,” he told.
Buddhists Rain Retreat Program
The sub-regional officer further told media that Arayawangso has been in Pakistan for the last three months as part of Rain Retreat Programme. Other monks joined him later. Rain Retreat Program is known as the intense learning period, where the monks dwelt in one place during the rainy season for an extended period, generally three months.
KP govt promoting tourism
In his media talks, Nawazuddin said that Gandhara civilization was considered holy for many different religions and considering this fact the KP government had launched religious tourism.
The provincial government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is currently trying to provide all possible facilities to foreign tourists. This year, hundreds of followers of different religions related to Gandhara civilization have visited KP, which has endorsed a softer image of the country across the continent.
Sri Lankan Buddhist delegation
Earlier, a Sri Lankan delegation consisting of 14 senior Buddhist monks had visited Lahore to carry out one-week long religious pilgrimage during which they visited and offered prayers at various Buddhist heritage sites of the country.

FIREFIGHTERS have moved quickly to contain a grass fire at Jerrys Plains on Thursday afternoon.
The NSW Rural Fire Service (NSW RFS) Hunter Valley headquarters, at Bulga, received a Triple Zero (000) call at about 12.30pm on January 23.
Members from the NSW RFS and NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) then attended the scene near Lemington Road.
The blaze is now under control, according to NSW RFS Hunter Valley operational officer Leanne Bell.
"The crews are still out there, as the fire covered 30 hectares," she said.
"Although the traffic wasn't affected and no property was in danger, people will see smoke in the area.
"The cause of the fire isn't suspicious; however it will be investigated further."

The Rev is on the road to promote his sixth release, Spend A Night In The Box. This wilder-than-rockabilly chestnut was recorded in Austin at Willie Nelson's Pedernales Studios (don't worry, The Rev pays his taxes), and produced by Butthole Surfers guitarist Paul Leary. As for the live experience, just imagine your first real whiskey buzz, add psycho Gretsch guitar and a hopped-up, sweaty crowd peppered with folks in fabulous, vintage blue-collar style.
Joining The Rev this time out is son-of-a-son Hank Williams III, a lanky, handsome ringer for the grandfather who's surely the most celebrated icon in country music.
Hank III continues in the family tradition, playing twangy honkytonk, rockin' country (more in line with his grandfather's style than his dad's electrified, Monday Night Football contributions). The junior Hank has become the darling of music critics and alternative-country fans since the release of his Risin' Outlaw debut last September.
Rounding out the triple bill are Tucson's own gravy-laden trailer park terrors, Thunderosa. Fronted by alias Bubba Grubbs, Thunderosa has just returned from a debauched road trip/beer run/club tour that brought them home from El Paso, through Phoenix and on to demonize the City of Angels. With that behind them and no charges filed, they're back and ready to rock the Rialto.
"This is my fifth time opening for The Rev," says a nostalgic Grubbs. "Tell the fans out there to rest up and drink plenty of fluids before they come. They're gonna need it. This show will be one to remember."
Thunderosa is even kickin' in free temporary tattoos to the first 100 well-rested, hydrated folks through the door. "Stewed, screwed and tattooed" is the party line here.
The Reverend Horton Heat, Hank Williams III, and Thunderosa play the Rialto Theater, 318 E. Congress St., on Thursday, June 29. Doors open at 7 p.m. Tickets are $18 day of show, or $15 in advance from Zip's University, CD Depot, Guitars, Etc. or online at www.ticketweb.com. Charge by phone at 1-800-965-4827.

The first widespread snowstorm of the season crawled across the Midwest on Thursday, with whiteout conditions stranding holiday travelers and sending drivers sliding over slick roads—including into a fatal 25-vehicle pileup in Iowa.
The storm, which dumped a foot of snow in parts of Iowa and Wisconsin, was part of a system that began in the Rockies earlier in the week before trekking into the Midwest. It was expected to move across the Great Lakes overnight before moving into Canada.

The rate cut rally from last week was simply too strong and rallied too high to be sustainable without some profit taking. Everybody knew it but everyone hoped it would not happen this time. Unfortunately, once weakness appeared the brave bulls from last week turned into timid calves and they ran for the sidelines with tail tucked firmly between their legs.
The bears are not yet back in control but their growling can be heard from the sidelines as warning after warning continues to weigh on the markets. With every earnings miss and negative projection they become a little braver and a little louder. Their memory of being severely burned by the explosion last week has tempered their aggressiveness but they are nibbling away on the weaker stocks.
One of the biggest companies to warn on Tuesday was Compaq with a pledge to cut another 5,000 jobs so they can rebound strongly when the economy recovers. They missed estimates by a penny and said next quarter earnings would only be in the nickel range. CPQ lost over -$3 to $17.56.
Following them for a position on the loss leader board was JDSU with an announcement they were cutting -5,000 jobs as well and sales were going to be -20% less than expected. JDSU has lost almost 30% of its value since Friday. The negative news impacted the fiber and networking sectors which had been flying high last week.
The list of losers was long and broad based with consumer stocks like Kimberly Clark missing estimates by a penny and warning and biotechs like GDT and retailers like COST also warning. There did not appear to be any real pockets of sector safety but there was a few specific stocks bucking the trend. IBM recovered slightly from Monday's drubbing but was trending down at the close. LH and DGX were standouts for the bulls with LH announcing a stock split and DGX being written up favorably in Barrons. Gains in other stocks were slim and scarce.
Amazon announced earnings after the close and there was not any real change since they pre-announced a couple weeks ago. They did give themselves some room to the downside for future revenue by widening the range of guidance. The increased range was mostly increased to the downside.
Lucent also announced earnings that missed expectations again but mostly due to a bankruptcy of one of their major customers. They posted a loss of -.37 when the street was expecting -.23 but without the special items they would have hit that number. They are taking bids for their fiber business which is estimated at over $5 billion and the CEO said they had many big bidders and a closing was expected to happen very soon after the bids finalized. They squashed rumors that they did not have enough cash to get out of trouble and said things were looking much better going forward. Have they said this before?
IBM announced they were buying Informix to better compete with Oracle. Investors cheered the news with a boost for IBM but IFMX dropped almost -30% as analysts felt IBM paid too little for the company.
The earnings news was flying hot and heavy all day and I could write several pages if I listed them all. Relax, I am done. The key points here in my mind are sentiment related and something I mentioned on Sunday. The markets have simply gone too far, too fast. Now the bulls and bears must battle each other for directional control. The top 25 stocks by volume on the Nasdaq were all down but volume was very light at less than two billion. This means there was no conviction. The Nasdaq was up +32% since the April-4th low and we were due for a pullback! The biggest sentiment problem I see is today's closing level. We closed -3 points below where we were when Greenspan cut rates last week. We gave back all of those gains. But before you rush for the phone remember there was almost a +75 point gap open that day on good earnings news. We are still above that gap.
Traders were widely reporting that short sellers were coming back into the market with the most widely shorted stocks taking heat again. The good earnings news is widely assumed to be over. MSFT, IBM, INTC and the other really big caps have already announced and everybody else in our future cannot cause the very big ripples to the upside. They can only add weight on the downside as they continue to warn. With the upside to investor sentiment capped, we need to watch carefully for risk to the downside.
The markets need to work through this period and build a base from which to rally later. Almost nobody expects a retest of the 1619 low from April-4th but there is a good possibility we have more weakness ahead. Consolidation could stop with support in the 1900 range where we spent a week just recently. With each day that passes there will be fewer earnings announcements and fewer chances for that really bad news that could cause us to tank again. We need to be patient and realize that most bad news is already priced in and this dip could be the last buying opportunity at this level. Stocks are still cheap and everyone expects an economic rebound in the second half of the year. Markets discount this expectation and investors will start buying this future once they feel the bottom has passed.
Remember the week after the major earnings in April is historically down and so far we are following the script exactly. The only challenge is waiting and more importantly, recognizing when the bottom has passed. That will be our entry point. Until then, be patient!
Enter passively, exit aggressively!

WASHINGTON — The House has approved three measures that dedicate hundreds of millions of federal dollars to curbing human trafficking.
The bills tackle human trafficking in the U.S. and abroad. One program would invest in law enforcement training. Another program provides housing options for victims, as well as mental health counselling and job training.
Speaker Paul Ryan says human trafficking is one of the fastest growing crimes in the world and that law enforcement needs every possible resource to fight it.
President Donald Trump says he’s hopeful the Senate will take up the bills as soon as possible.
Lawmakers say only about a quarter of human trafficking cases are actually identified. They say the bills will help ensure that children and other vulnerable populations learn how to avoid traffickers.

(In a Sense) Lost and Found: 01/28/16
(In a Sense) Lost and Found by Roman Muradov is a graphic novel about being a new adult. A young woman wakes up one day and realizes her innocence has been stolen. She leaves her protective father to search the big city for it and discovers her own place in it.
How her innocence is stolen isn't exactly spelled out, being left instead to the reader's interpretation. At the darkest end, it could mean someone comes into her room and physically violates her. It could more symbolically mean that she has woken up with her own desires that aren't in alignment with her conservative upbringing. Or maybe she's just not emotionally ready for having the adult feelings and thoughts she now finds herself with.
Regardless of the reason behind her troubled awakening, Premise feels the urge to leave home (as most adult children do). She has been compelled to explore the world around her and find her own place and her own thoughts.
For many new adults, self discovery is in the consumption of culture — the bookstore, the library, movies. Along with the stories, there's hopefully a mentor — someone who has been through the same journey and can recognize the early confusion and can offer non judgmental guidance.
How the specifics of this story unwrap is up to personal interpretation. There aren't any obvious sign posts. Just like life, the narrative path of this book is left to you.

I recently found a USA Today article that details how nurses can move from state to state and keep working in spite of incompetence and criminal activity. There is a compact among 24 states whereby a license obtained in a nurse’s home state allows access to work in the other compact states. But an investigation conducted by, ProPublica, the non-profit news organization, found that the pact also has allowed nurses with records of misconduct to put patients in jeopardy. In some cases, nurses have retained clean multi-state licenses after at least one compact state had banned them.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. late Thursday reported its fiscal second-quarter loss grew five-fold despite higher sales, as the company said it is taking steps to cut costs and consolidate resources amid an industry transition period that continues to challenge video game publishers.
The New York-based video game publisher said it lost $50.4 million, or 71 cents a share, for the period ended April 30, compared to a loss of $8.2 million, or 12 cents, a year earlier. The results included $26.3 million, or 24 cents a share, for asset write-downs, including the closure of three of its development studios.
Analysts were expecting a loss of 11 cents a share, according to estimates compiled by Thomson First Call. The majority of estimates reflect the expensing of stock-based compensation.
Revenue for the period rose to $265.1 million, compared to sales of $222.1 million, for last year. Analysts were expecting revenue of $258.8 million.
Despite the higher sales, the company said profit margins for the quarter were hindered by a high percentage of publishing revenues from co-published and licensed titles. The company's leading title for the quarter, "Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion" for Xbox 360 and the PC, was co-published by its 2K Games studio and Bethesda Softworks, an independent studio. "Oblivion," which contributed 40% to Take-Two's top line, commanded gross margins towards the "low end of the 20% to 40% range," the company said.
Take-Two also said that it continues to suffer from the retail weakness for video game software and lower retail pricing related to the industry's transition to new hardware platforms such as the Xbox 360 from Microsoft Corp. and forthcoming consoles from Japan-based companies Sony Corp. and Nintendo Co. Ltd.
As a result, the publisher of the "Grand Theft Auto" franchise said it would write-off of unnamed titles, as well as trademarks and acquired intangibles. All together, Take-Two's costs cutting initiatives will help it save $28 million a year, said Chief Financial Officer Karl Winters.
"While near-term financial results continue to be impacted by the console transition, we are confident that we have positioned Take-Two for the long-term by streamlining our organization while maintaining an extremely talented global development team," said Chief Executive Paul Eibeler, in a statement.
And in a move to position itself closer to attractive emerging markets, Take-Two said it would relocate its international publishing headquarters to Geneva, Switzerland, from the U.K.
For the current third quarter, Take-Two expects sales to be driven by "Table Tennis" for Xbox 360, "Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories" for PlayStation 2, and "The Da Vinci Code" for current generation console systems and the PC.
Like the previous quarter, the company did not offer a forecast for the current third quarter, but said it expects to return to profitability in the fiscal fourth quarter ending in October. See Take-Two 1Q results.
"While their game portfolio for their fiscal 2007 period appears strong, their stock performance will most likely be hindered from Management's inability to quantify that strength," said Mike Hickey, analyst with Janco Partners, who rates Take-Two a buy. Hickey mentions that much of the sales for "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" for PlayStation Portable will fall in early fiscal 2007, while "Grand Theft Auto IV" sales will come at its tail-end. The analyst also has high expectations for "Bioshock," "Bully" and the next version of "Red Dead Revolver."
In a bright spot, Eibeler said that he expects the price points for next-generation games to remain high throughout the year, with the average selling price of its 2K Sports titles to exceed around $45 per unit.
And as new online revenue streams take hold, Take-Two said that in its next quarter it will being deferring revenue for online content, in-game ads, and licensing of intellectual property. The company said that it has already received approximately $35 million of payments in its third quarter, and expects to receive additional payments this year.
Looking ahead, Eibeler was bullish on the revenue opportunity that downloadable, episodic content provides in extending the lifecycle of a game. In May, Take-Two's Rockstar Games division said that it would provide exclusive content for "Grand Theft Auto IV" for the Xbox Live online marketplace when the game launches for the Xbox 360 console in October of 2007.
Hickey speculates that the downloadable content for GTA IV, which might cost $5 per episode, could command margins of 50% per unit.
On Wednesday, Take-Two said that the Federal Trade Commission has concluded its inquiry regarding the advertising claims for "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas," following the title's re-rating by the Entertainment Software Rating Board. Last July, Take-Two changed the rating on the videogame due to sex-scenes embedded with the game's code. See full story.
As a part of the settlement, Take-Two is implementing a system to ensure that game content is reviewed in connection with submissions to ratings authorities, and shall not misrepresent a game's ratings or content. If it violates the agreement, the company must pay $11,000 per violation.
"We recognize the importance of the FTC investigation and the necessity of maintaining public confidence in the ESRB rating system in helping the ESRB educate parents and consumers about the rating system," said Eibeler. "We look toward to putting this behind us and focusing on what we do best, creating interactive entertainment."
