From severed heads at Gucci to flying drones at Dolce & Gabbana, Milan Fashion Week was full of surprises and special moments. Scroll down to find out our top 7 highlights to catch up on from Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2018.
Prada has often been slammed for the lack of diversity in its models for both fashion shows and campaigns, so imagine how deeply — and pleasantly — surprised everyone was when 19-year-old Sudanese model, Anok Yai, opened the show for the house this season, officially making history as the first black model to have ever done so since Naomi Campbell almost 20 years ago. What we like even more is that instead of going for someone we already know, the brand went for a very recently discovered face, as if to declare that casting models of different colours is no longer a choice but now a standard.
Moschino‘s Jeremy Scott was inspired by a conspiracy theory in which John F. Kennedy told Marilyn Monroe that aliens existed and, since she wanted to go to the press about it, both of them were assassinated by the government so as to keep it a secret. Scott then went on and imagined that Jackie Kennedy was, in fact, an alien and responsible for both deaths, resulting in a Fall/Winter 2018 presentation walked by ‘alien models’ in bright coloured skins wearing Jackie-inspired looks.
Moncler is breaking away from the traditional ‘one season, one collection’ cycle by launching Moncler Genius, presenting not one, not two, but eight collections, each designed by one of fashion’s leading designers. The list includes Valentino’s Pierpaolo Piccioli, Simone Rocha, Craig Green, Fragment’s Hiroshi Fujiwara, Noir’s Kei Ninomiya and Francesco Ragazzi of Palm Angels — all tasked with the challenge of reinterpreting the brand’s classic down jacket with their own creative spin.
Designer Paul Andrew joined Salvatore Ferragamo as director of women’s footwear in September 2016, and was quickly promoted to womenswear creative director last October, overseeing everything from clothing to accessories to footwear. Together with the brand’s menswear designer, Guillaume Meilland, Andrew debuted his first womenswear collection for the brand in Milan, featuring classic and sophisticated styles with a contemporary twist, all based on six new house “pillars” which include shirting, knitwear, leather, jackets, trousers and prints. We especially adore the prints that were taken from the house’s scarf archive, which were then generously spliced into blouses, dresses and also the lining of coats.
Alessandro Michele’s fantastical visions never cease to fascinate, and for Fall/Winter 2018, he wants us to move beyond predefined identities. The designer took inspiration from Donna Haraway’s 1984 essay “A Cyborg Manifesto”, in which she referred to cyborgs as hybrids that represent the rejection of rigid boundaries, such as societal norms. To bring his out-of-this-world ideas to life, the designer tapped Rome-based visual and special effects company Makinarium to create a series of stunningly creepy ‘accessories’ such as baby dragons, a third eye and even severed heads that may or may not have already became the must-have item for the Fall/Winter 2018 season.
In the effort to break down the boundaries between fashion and technology (which seems to be a popular theme on the Fall/Winter 2018 runways), Dolce & Gabbana opened the show by sending a number of flying drones controlled by men and women in white lab coats down the runway, all carrying the brand’s latest luxury bags while bobbing up and down to the tune of Kendrick Lamar’s “All The Stars”.
Logomania is definitely not slowing anytime soon, and is going full speed ahead with monograms, as seen at Fendi in Milan. Karl Lagerfeld and Silvia Venturi Fendi presented their Fall/Winter 2018 collections together, sending out models dressed in luxurious looking pieces including furry sweaters, suede trousers, capes and camel trench coats, with most of them topped with an overflow of the house’s classic double-F Zucca logo.

The concept of the “adaptogen” is historically a part of Hans Selye’s work on the physiology of stress, which he conducted from the mid-1930s. An adaptogen should provide an improvement in the body’s overall resistance in order to counteract the harmful effects of prolonged stress leading to a phase of exhaustion.
The benefits sought are a reduction of the physiological and psychological reactions to stress in the initial alarm stage (anti-alarm effect) and a delay or suppression of entry into the exhaustion stage. So, this word “stress,” so present in today’s world, what does it mean? What is the model developed by Hans Selye?
Hans Selye, the father of the concept of stress
Hans Selye, who was born in Vienna in 1907 and died in Montreal in 1982, was the founder of the Institute of Experimental Medicine and Surgery at McGill University in Montreal, which he led from 1945 to 1976.
Inventor of the theory of stress, he introduced the term in medicine in 1936, and in 1956 published a major work “The stress of life.” In his experiments on rats, Selye showed very early on that various harmful influences such as cold, heat, noise, chemical agents, etc. induce the same “non-specific” physiological response by the body (stomach and colon ulceration, immune system tissue atrophy, increased adrenal mass), which he called “stress” [Selye, 1950].
Stress is therefore a non-specific response of the body to any demand made of it, regardless of the nature of the stimulus, with identical biochemical changes, designed to confront any increased demand imposed on the human body.
This physiological response is designed to maintain what biologists call a state of equilibrium or homeostasis, meaning the constancy or stability of the body’s parameters such as body temperature, glucose level, etc. However, prolonged stress can cause psychological and physiological symptoms.
The Hans Selye model
This model, called “general adaptation syndrome”, distinguishes three stages that are compared to a normal level of resistance for the body:
A time of preparation, mobilization of resources to deal with stress (at the beginning of this stage, resistance drops below the normal level, then rises above it);
Use of resources (stage with resistance above the normal level);
Onset of various somatic disorders (decline in the level of resistance in this stage compared to the previous stage, also called “burn-out”).
If the magnitude of the stressful event does not exceed the normal response capacity, the body will not suffer any after effects. On the other hand, if the body’s resources are insufficient, and they cannot cope with the amount of stress that needs to be managed, all kinds of problems are likely to occur. The body then enters a vicious circle; the adaptation system becomes exhausted and the consequences of stress become more and more detrimental. A number of criteria determine whether or not a person has reached the stage of damage. Initially there is irritability, then insomnia, headaches, difficulty concentrating, memory problems, and so on.
The physiology of stress and adaptation
The stress response system (or non-specific adaptive response), whose function is to adapt to a situation assessed as restrictive, is designed to protect the body (defense mechanism).
Regulation of the adaptation to stress uses the “stress system” which involves:
- the nervous system (central and autonomic)
- the neuroendocrine system
- the non-specific immune system (enzymatic systems, non-specific cytokines, complement system and NK cells).
Two main mechanisms are present in the non-specific adaptive response of the stress system (nervous and neuroendocrine systems) and play an essential role in the body’s reactions to repeated stresses and in adaptation by balancing the release of adrenaline and corticosteroids (glucocorticoids):
A mechanism present in the alarm stage
involving double activation by the hypothalamus of the stress axis: peripherally, via the sympathetic autonomic nervous system and centrally, via the locus coeruleus with stimulation of the limbic and prefrontal regions;
A mechanism present in the resistance stage
involving the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, or HPA axis, with the release of glucocorticoids (cortisol in humans).
The principal functions of catecholamines and glucocorticoids are, on the one hand, cardiovascular stimulation (increased heart rate, blood pressure and blood glucose levels) and, on the other hand, mobilization of energy sources needed for muscular effort (glycogenolysis, lipolysis) as well as an anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive activity.
Mode of action of adaptogenic plants
The distinctive characteristic of the action of adaptogenic plants is that their protective effect in relation to stress is not the result of inhibition (antagonistic action) but that of “gentle” stimulation (agonist action) of the “stress system” (neuroendocrine and immune complex) promoting a protective effect from stress through repeated administration.
The effect of adaptogens is similar to that produced by repeated physical exercise causing a state of non-specific resistance with improved endurance in extreme conditions. They act in the body at different levels of the regulation of adaptation to stressors, activating common receptors. However, according to data from literature, the effects of adaptogenic plants are mainly associated with the endocrine mechanism involving the HPA axis. [Panossian 2003, Panossian 1999a, Panossian 1999b, Panossian 2010, Panossian 2011, Wagner 1994].
Adaptogenic plants can therefore be defined as “mild” stressors that reduce the responsiveness of the body’s defense systems and reduce the harmful effects of various aggressors due to the increase in the base level of the mediators involved in the response to stress. It is a decrease in the response of the body’s stress system.
THE EFFECTS OF ADAPTOGENIC PLANTS
The effects of adaptogens are therefore the reduction of stress reactions in the alarm stage by decreasing the sensitivity of the stress system and lengthening of the non-specific resistance stage of the stress response.

San Francisco Mayor London Breed declined to criticize House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for visiting an area salon for a wash and blowout regardless of local COVID-19 restrictions, revealing to ABC7 that “we have a dictator who is running this country and Nancy Pelosi is at the forefront fighting against this person everyday.”
While she stated that she is “not trying to excuse what happened,” Breed did not clearly condemn the Speaker for breaking local COVID -19 rules and said that the complete situation has been blown out of proportion.
“We have a terrorist, we have a dictator who is running this country, and Nancy Pelosi is at the forefront fighting against this person everyday, you know, and I’m not trying to excuse what happened,” Mayor Breed stated.
“I’m just saying that to allow an issue like this to turn our city upside down when we got folks who are homeless, we’ve got people who can’t open their business, including these salons. I understand,” she continued.
When she was asked about a potential apology from Pelosi, Breed avoided an answer.
“Let me just be clear. I can be responsible for my behavior. I can’t tell other people what to do,” she claimed.
Erica Kious, the salon owner, revealed to Fox News Tucker Carlson on Wednesday that she has been receiving “hate, text messages, death threats” since exposing careless Nancy Pelosi in her salon.
During a Zoom interview on Thursday, Kious turned down Pelosi’s accusations of a setup, claiming that she hoped the story would encourage leaders to reopen businesses, which have been on hold for months.
“If a woman in a high-risk age group who spends much of her time on TV warning about the dangers of COVID-19 feels safe and comfortable in a San Francisco salon and can be responsible for being cautious and mindful, why can’t the rest of San Francisco, and the rest of America, do that, too?” she wondered.

Influential New Orleans songwriter, musician and producer Allen Toussaint died Monday of a heart attack, his son said in a statement Tuesday.
Toussaint, 77, had been touring in Madrid, Clarence Toussaint said in the statement.
Numerous major artists recorded Toussaint’s songs, including the Rolling Stones, the Yardbirds, Herb Alpert, Glenn Campbell, Robert Palmer and Alison Kraus.
They included the widely covered “Fortune Teller,” Campbell’s chart-topping crossover version of “Southern Nights” and Leo Dorsey’s 1966 version of “Workin’ in a Coal Mine.”
He was also a well-regarded performer in his own right. His 2012 jazz album, “The Bright Mississippi,” showcased “what an idiosyncratic, inventive instrumentalist he is,” Allmusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote at the time.
“The man was a genius,” British singer Billy Bragg tweeted Tuesday.
Toussaint was also a producer who opened a studio, Sea-Saint, in 1973 with partner Marshall Sehorn and operated his own record label.
Artists including Dr. John, the Neville Brothers, Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Robert Palmer and Labelle recorded at the studio, according to Toussaint’s biography for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, into which he was inducted in 1998.
In 2012, he received a National Medal of the Arts “for his incredible contributions to the rhythm and blues and jazz music of his beloved New Orleans,” President Barack Obama said.

Podium of Thoughts on 2018 24 Hours of Le Mans
1. Toyota Finally Got Their Win ... But At What Cost?: After perhaps the most devastating loss in motorsports history in 2016, Toyota went from sympathetic underdogs to hallowed winners in just two years. At least that was the perception of many fans.
Of course, a lot of this isn't Toyota's fault. When Audi after 2016 and Porsche after 2017 withdrew from the World Endurance Championship, it left Toyota as the only hybrid team in the top class. If Toyota didn't return, it would have essentially sunk the class.
Toyota stayed. And, they were magnanimous enough to allow the FIA and ACO to tweak the rules to bring the non-hybrid LMP1 cars closer to Toyota's performance and increase the field. But not too close.
After all, Toyota was spending around $120 million on their annual budget while the privateers a fraction of that amount. Had a regular LMP1 car defeated Toyota on sheer speed alone, it would have been quite embarrassing.
And therein lies the rub for most fans. They saw this as simply a coronation of Toyota and not a competition. But what was Toyota to do? Walk out like the others? Why no anger towards the manufacturers who actually quit the sport?
Then, Fernando Alonso signed with Toyota for the entire 2018-19 super season. That alone wasn't an issue. However, when the FIA made a last minute change to the Fuji date, to accommodate Toyota's home race so Alonso could compete in it, it meant the WEC date conflicted with IMSA's Petite Le Mans.
This caused many drivers to have to choose between the dates and lose a weekend paycheck. Most of these drivers depend on these paychecks as they don't have ~$30 million F1 contracts to fall back on like Alonso.
More anger was aimed at Toyota. Fans were saying the FIA now stood for Federation Internationale de l'Alonso. The rules kept changing to seemingly give Toyota one advantage after another. Fans were openly rooting for Toyota to fall flat on their faces again at La Sarthe.
Toyota did not. Their reliability was impeccable which they worked hard at achieving. Then again, even though they had to maintain top speed in order for the hybrid components to work correctly, they still could drive it "safely." Without any pressure from other manufacturers, they did not have to push the cars -- hopping curbs, braking hard, sliding through turns, or taking chances passing traffic (which, interestingly, Alonso did once almost throwing away the race when he dropped two wheels into the dirt on the Mulsanne Straight trying to pass a gaggle of slower cars).
However, they dominated more comprehensively than anyone could have imagined. Even taking into consideration the problems the other LMP1 cars ran into, Le Mans was over before it started.
André Lotterer (more on him later), the starting driver for the Rebellion Racing team, said on the grid before the pace lap about Toyota, "On paper, they have won the race. They can only lose it now."
Perhaps the key question is, does Toyota care? They can now advertise they won Le Mans. To the common consumer, what manufacturers do in racing probably plays a minimal role these days in deciding what car to buy. But there are certain iconic events that everyone has heard about and can get an emotional reaction from a consumer. Indy. Daytona. Le Mans. Advertise winning those, and people pay attention.
Sure, the racing fan may think it was a hallow victory against no competition with rules stacked in their favor from an organization seemingly favoring the darling driver. But for Toyota, they won Le Mans. It doesn't matter to them how they did it. And they worked their asses off over two decades to get to this point.
Toyota was in a typical damn if you do, damn if you don't situation. It's complicated. So, we'll repeat it again, and leave it as an exercise for the reader.
Toyota finally got their win ... but at what cost?
2. Overshadowing The Racing: Balance of Performance is a necessary evil. What many fans forget is the manufacturers want it. In fact, for the 24 Hours Nürburgring, the manufacturers want it so badly, they all chip in to fund the BoP committee.
Manufacturers participation in racing has always been a fickle thing. BoP allows more of a willingness from manufacturers to spend the money to fund a racing program. And it keeps manufacturers in racing longer.
But when people can't stop talking about BoP, when does it reach the point that it completely overshadows the racing? Seemingly, we are at that point.
Couple BoP with the most restrictive rules package Le Mans has ever seen -- strict limits on laps per stint, strict limits on fuel flow, strict limits on pit stop times, strict limits on fuel capacity -- and fans wonder what happened to strategy, innovation, and competition as Le Mans starts to resemble NASCAR.
The GT classes, especially GTE Pro, despite being the most interesting class this year, was still overshadowed by BoP and the restrictive rules.
The old racing adage says, when the green flag drops, the bullshit stops. What happens if the bullshit never stops after the green flag drops?
3. Le Mans Is Still Le Mans: Despite all these problems -- a completely uncompetitive LMP1 with just one manufacturer, nonstop BoP discussions, and over regulation -- it's still Le Mans.
And despite all that as well as a French train strike, over a quarter million fans showed up once again, essentially the same amount as last year.
As one poster put it on a message board, "There will always be a LeMans no matter what circus ring leader is running the show."
And for that reason, fans will always show up and it's still on our bucket list.
Lobotomy of the Race Award: This goes to the Rebellion Racing team, specifically the #1 entry.
Granted, as long as Toyota did not have any problems, nobody else was going to win this race. However, when your only chance for an upset is to not make a single mistake whatsoever, not even hit a bug, what does the #1 Rebellion Racing car do?
At the first corner, the very first corner of a 24-freaking-hour race, they essentially take themselves out. André Lotterer, possibly tapped from behind by his own teammate, runs into a Toyota and then has apparently a not properly secured nose taken off on the rebound into the #10 DragonSpeed BR Engineering car.
The whole team was lobotomized on that one.
Special Mention: Patrick Dempsey. Like Paul Newman and Steve McQueen before him, Dempsey truly loves racing. Like the others, he has played many roles, some of which are behind the scenes volunteering his time for the sport. Though he has stepped away from driving, he still remains active.
To see his unabashed joy celebrating the team he co-owns win GTE Am was wonderful. He deserves it.

USA – Beyond Meat has announced a multi-year pea protein supply agreement with Roquette, a global leader in plant-based ingredients and a pioneer of plant proteins.
The supply agreement builds on a previous partnership between the companies and significantly increases the amount of pea protein to be supplied by Roquette to Beyond Meat over the next three years as compared to the amount supplied in 2019.
Ethan Brown, Beyond Meat’s Founder & CEO commented, “This latest contract with Roquette reflects Beyond Meat’s commitment to further scaling the plant protein supply chain as global demand for our products continues to rise.
“Along with our supply chain partners, including Roquette, we are driving innovation and access to existing and new plant protein feedstocks as we provide consumers around the world with plant-based meats that delight taste buds while contributing to important health, climate, natural resource, and animal welfare goals.”
Jean-Marc Gilson, CEO of Roquette, said: “This agreement with Beyond Meat enables both of us to continue to write the history of this promising market and to grow our businesses together.
“Roquette has a passion for food, and we believe Nature has the answer to provide people with the food they need and demand. We are very pleased to continue supporting the growth of Beyond Meat, which shares our passion and values this long-term commitment.”
The partnership will also support Beyond Meat’s ambitious expansion efforts both domestically and globally and introduction of new innovative products into the marketplace.
In May 2019, Beyond Meat also expanded its partnership with Zandbergen World’s Finest Meat to produce the brand’s innovative plant-based meats at a new manufacturing facility being constructed by Zandbergen, the Netherlands.
Beyond Meat’s executive chairman, Seth Goldman, recently revealed that the company plans to expand into mainland China and Europe this year.
Beyond Meat has significantly benefited from its expansion across various markets, with the company registering a 250% growth in net revenues to US$92.0 million in the third quarter of 2019 compared to US$26.3 million in the third quarter of 2018.
Currently, Beyond Meat’s portfolio of fresh and frozen plant-based proteins are currently sold at approximately 58,000 retail and foodservice outlets in more than 50 countries worldwide.
Beyond meat is also ramping up its partnerships with major restaurants chains including Dunkin’, McDonald’s, Subway, Del Taco, Carl’s Jr, and A&W Restaurants.


The Minister of Aviation, Senator Hadi Sirika, has disclosed that he will relocate to Enugu to directly supervise the rehabilitation of the Akanu Ibiam international Airport, which he said will be ready next April.
Sirika during the Aviation Ministry’s budget defence recently, told the House Committee on Aviation that the airport would be reopened to traffic before Esther next year.
He said he would make sure that quality work was done on the runway, which intractable problem led to the closure of the airport in August.
The Minister disclosed that he had held meeting with Minister of Finance and the Director-General of the Budget Office and that the money would soon be released so that the contractor could move to site.
He further assured the House Committee on Aviation that he would deploy the same energy and resources he engaged in delivering the reconstruction of the Abuja Airport runway to replicate the feat in Enugu as soon as the fund is released.
On the new terminal building, Sirika disclosed that it would be completed by the middle of 2020.
The Minister had used the opportunity to reel out the achievements of his Ministry in the last one year which included the reconstruction of the Lagos and Abuja terminal buildings as well as the security certification of the two airports by the International Civil Aviation Organisation, (ICAO).
The House Committee Chairman on Aviation, Nnolim Nnaji had earlier commended the Minister for his commitment to the Akanu Ibiam International Airport’s reconstruction project and inquired from him when the contractor would mobolise to the site.
He also appealed to the Minister to extend the same commitment and tenacity he has so far deployed to the problems of Akanu Ibiam Airport to other airports in the country that require such intervention.

Baconnaise is the ultimate spreadable bacon, the original bacon mayonnaise. A massive hit the states, this creamy bacon flavoured spead is the perfect condiment for an endless number of foods: burgers, salads, chicken, fish, chips and crisps. Use it as a dip, a spead or just eat it straight out the jar.
Baconnaise is made by J&D’s food in the USA, famous for their bacon flavoured products, such as bacon salt. It all started with a customer request to make “spreadable bacon”. So J&D's Food set out on another bacon-flavored adventure. Could they make a mayonnaise product that met their own high bacony standards? Could they get people as excited as they were for Bacon Salt (for which shrines have been built and songs have been written)? After 6 months Baconnaise was born.
Customers love Baconnaise:
"Two of the best things in life, Mayonnaise and Bacon? what more could you want. as far as a sauce goes this is perfect, very thick but rich in flavour, a must for all lovers of bacon. perfect as a side sauce for chicken - I can't go without it!"
"Lovely item that actually tastes nice, not just a gimmicky product."
What's more Baconnaise doesn't actually contain any bacon so it's perfect for vegetarians and it's Kosher certified. It's been featured on TV numerous times in the USA which propelled it's popularity and Baconnaise has now sold over 1,000,000 jars worldwide. Tastebox import Baconnaise directly from the USA, buy Baconnaise and try it out… you'll never go back!

High pressure is centered over the southeast United States stretching into the western Atlantic Ocean. We also have a little wrinkle in the atmosphere that developed around the northwest Bahamas late in the day on yesterday. These two features will combine to help bring in some added moisture into South Florida this Thursday.
Right now, the satellite and radar picture is showing that this area of clouds and rain is inching closer due to our easterly breeze. If it holds, we will see some activity late morning into the afternoon.
Rain chances will be back to seasonal by the end of the week and into the weekend of seeing late day scattered inland storms. Have the umbrellas on hand just in case.
Tropical Update: All is quiet.
Just in: NOAA updated their outlook for the 2016 Atlantic Hurricane Season. They have bumped up the chance of seeing a near-normal or above-normal hurricane season. That chance is up to a 70%. Their thinking is that it is still expected to be the most active season since 2012. The reason for the increase in numbers is due to El Niño ending and less shear (a.k.a. strong winds) in the Atlantic Ocean.
Have a wonderful day South Florida and make it a safe one!

15th Annual Brooks Lecture to Feature Alan Steinweis March 27
Omaha - Alan E. Steinweis will deliver the Rabbi Sidney H. Brooks Lecture Thursday, March 27, at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO). His presentation, "Diagnosing and Combating Holocaust Fatigue," begins at 7 p.m. in the William H. and Dorothy Thompson Alumni Center Centennial Hall. It is free and open to the public.
"Holocaust fatigue" is a term describing the phenomenon in the United States and beyond that involves a diminishing patience for hearing and learning about the Holocaust. The causes and manifestations of Holocaust fatigue may be linked to the growth of anti-Semitism and anti-Israeli sentiment. In his lecture, Steinweis will highlight the causes and symptoms of the phenomenon and suggest how it can be combatted through a rethinking of the way the Holocaust is taught and commemorated.
Steinweis is the Hyman Rosenberg Professor of Modern European History and Judaic Studies in the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Department of History, where he specializes in the history of the Holocaust and Nazi Germany. He teaches additional courses on European and Jewish history and historical methodology. He has published several books and articles, including Art, Ideology, and Economics in Nazi Germany: The Reich Chambers of Music, Theater, and the Visual Arts and Studying the Jew: Scholarly anti-Semitism in Nazi Germany. He also edited the American edition of the Comprehensive History of the Holocaust, a monograph series published by the University of Nebraska Press in cooperation with Yad Vashem, Holocaust research and commemoration authority of the state of Israel. Steinweis has held visiting positions at universities in Germany and Israel and is the recipient of numerous fellowships.
The annual lecture series is sponsored by the UNO Religious Studies Program, the UNO College of Arts and Sciences and Temple Israel. It is named in honor of Sidney H. Brooks, who played an integral role in the religious life of the Omaha community for more than 40 years. He served as rabbi of Temple Israel for 33 years before his retirement in 1985. He died in 1999 at the age of 79. Throughout his life, Brooks was recognized for his pursuit of social justice and relations between people of other faiths, including Jews and Christians.
For more information, contact Kathy Cox Schwartz at (402) 554-2628.
UNO will celebrate its 100th anniversary beginning Oct. 8, 2008. This celebration will recognize the partnership among the city of Omaha, its citizens and UNO to build a vibrant and dynamic community. The centennial theme is "UNO: Central To Our City Since 1908." This theme acknowledges the past contributions of UNO to the community and sets the stage for great things to come.
UNO, inaugurated in 1968, emerged from the Municipal University of Omaha, established in 1931, which grew out of the University of Omaha founded in 1908. For Centennial information, go to http://www.unomaha.edu/100/.

I am thrilled to share wonderful news for Uganda’s media landscape. President Kaguta Museveni has reversed the directive limiting the Government of Uganda’s advertising to UBC.
This pivotal decision, achieved after discussions with NAB Uganda and media executives, marks a triumph for media diversity.
This shift fosters healthy competition, recognizing all media entities’ role in shaping our nation’s narrative. I thank President Museveni for considering NAB’s insights and affirming the media’s constructive role.
Appreciation extends to the government team, including the Prime Minister, Attorney General, Ministers of ICT and Finance, and Parliament, for supporting a private sector-led economy.
This decision underscores the power of a free and independent media in driving growth for Uganda. Kudos to NAB’s dedication and teamwork.
Together, we’ve shaped a brighter future for Uganda. Onward, Uganda!

Holidays are very busy and can be a little stressful, now can you imagine having a wedding in the midst of all? Oh well lol.
Here is my little Winter wedding card. I used Gilli seating bride to make this card. I decided to go with a non traditional bridal color, a bit of a modern touch I guess. All coloring was done with copic markers. This image originally did not have the veil but it was super easy to add one…just do the same thing you usually do when you color pleats : ) (check CMC class 5 and boost your pleat work!).
I added tiny white dots and made them sparkle with a touch of stickles. To create a satin texture on Gilli’s wedding gown I used Smooch. All the cuts you see, lacy and swirls were made using silhouette studio, with exception of the snowflakes (it is a winter wedding after all lol). Snowflakes were made using Martha Stewart punch. All pieces were chalked to give a little dimension. Of course I added stickles to all my pieces.

New Southwell Minster's Converted Bowls (Song for Jeff Koons)
Part of the Sacred Spaces project - find out more at http://www.citiesandmemory.com/sacredspaces
Reimagined by Leslie Rollins.
"Field Recoding (note lack of “r” in “co()ding”) is a process I utilize to resituate field recordings into new surroundings. Most often utilizing my own field recordings with my modular synthesizer. Often, the first step in Recoding is re-recording the source Field Recording inside my studio space. I approach these recording sessions just as I would my standard outside field recording sessions, meaning that the environment and sounds within it are very deliberately chosen and engaged with. In the case of this piece, I played the original .wav file directly from the Dropbox folder on my iPhone 7+ which was sat within a Tibetan Singing Bowl. The singing bowl’s resonance, excited by the iPhone’s speakers, was captured by a contact microphone attached to the outside of the bowl. The low drone heard in the left channel at the start of the piece is the sound of a large tractor clearing debris in the park a block from my home. Its rumbling travelled through the ground, up the walls of my home, and vibrated the desk that the bowl and phone sat on. At approximately the 1:18 moment of the piece, I turn on my own vacuum which was recorded to the right side of the sound field utilizing a coil pick-up attached to the exterior of the vacuum, revealing the inner workings of the electromagnetic field running through it. The contact mic picked up a bit of the ambient sound of my vacuum as well. At approximately 3:33 of the piece, I turn off my vacuum and allow the original recording to play out. Finally, we return to the low drone provided by the tractor. The title of the piece is a play on Jeff Koon’s “New Hoover Convertibles (1981)” (see attached image). I’m always awed by the sheer dimensions of places like Southwell Minster. The sense of literal space is overwhelming on a cosmic level. I like the no-nonsense idea of somebody vacuuming such a space. Moving the air (dare I say “Spirit”) in a very honest way. My piece attempts to bridge the space between my sacred space and another. I situated the Recoding within the bowl, a sacred object which is precious to me. In Koons work, he’s elevated something which could be seen as “lowly” to a new, higher station. A redemption of sorts."

Bevel, the grooming brand founded by tech vet Tristan Walker that caters to people of color, has unveiled a new campaign that explores the history of Black-owned barbershops in a series of beautiful films showing veteran hair cutters at work.
The campaign's stylish anthem video, shot in black and white, shows five barbers -- some who cater to celebrity clientele -- performing their signature cuts and discussing their craft. Each barber will be the subject of a separate video that explores his individual story.
According to Mr. Walker, the series brings to life the classic "style guide" posters that can be found in many real barber shops and provides a deeper look into the shops' cultural significance. "If you walk into any kind of barber shop, you always see this style guide with these numbered haircuts, and it hasn't been updated forever," Mr. Walker told Ad Age. "Our ability to really reimagine that experience and start a conversation about it I think is important."
While some might argue that Bevel poses competition for the barber shops highlighted in the campaign, Mr. Walker said. "We're not going to displace the barber shop. It's an institution that's culturally important. Our customers are going to go to the barbershop every Saturday. But we're here to take care of them from Sunday to Saturday."
The campaign was created in-house, led by brand marketing leader Raquel Lachman and Creative Director Mari Sheibley and directed by J.M. Harper.

If you need to move water in a remote or off-grid area, a solar water pump is probably your most efficient option. Most of the time, a solar water pumping system (also known as "solar-direct pumping") is about as straightforward as it gets: a solar panel is wired directly to a solar powered water pump. No batteries. No inverter. Just a simple water pumping system that moves water when the sun is shining, which is usually when it's most needed.
While solar water pumping truly is as simple as PV and a pump, in most cases you'll want to add a pump controller or linear current booster (LCB) to the system. These devices help you squeeze more runtime and efficiency out of a solar water pump by converting excess voltage to current during periods of low sun (most notably early morning and evening), and some have other features as well.
But what about moving water when the sun's not shining? In most cases, we recommend storing water in a holding tank rather than storing electricity in batteries to run the pump. This results in the same outcome: water when you need it, but with less cost and complexity than integrating battery storage. A notable exception to this rule of thumb is when you need to use a booster pump to create water pressure inside your house. In this case, batteries are needed to maintain water pressure night and day. For help figuring out what your exact water pumping needs are, call us at 800-919-2400 or use our free solar water pumping system quote tool.

Throughout this semester law codes help show the changes occurring throughout Russian history. Written under the rule of Aleksei the Ulozehnie of 1649 differs greatly from previous law codes such as the Sudebnik of 1497. The Ulozehnie is organized into sections like previous law codes; however, the order of the articles reveals important shifts in the structure of the Russian state. Article I of the Ulozehnie protects the dignity and sanctity of the Russian Orthodox Church.… Read the rest here
The excerpts from The Code of Law of 1649 (Ulozhenie) corroborate what we have been exploring in class. Following the Time of Troubles, which lasted from 1598 to 1613, Russia’s government changed the way that it treated its people. Because of the Social period during the Time of Troubles the government understood the power of the people and the need to keep them happy. Along with this understanding came mistrust. The government became rightly afraid of uprising and tighter hold on the people of Russia ensued.… Read the rest here
The Law Code of 1649 (Ulozhenie)1 shows us how life has changed for the Muscovites since the Sudebnik of 1497 2 written under the rule of Ivan III. This document, written during Alexis I’s reign, is significantly longer and more detailed than its predecessors, including topics topic’s that we haven’t seen before such as permits to travel to other countries, tolls, ferries, and bridges, and even illegal taverns. There are many differences, but it is crucial to mention the first and second articles, Blasphemers and Heretics and The Sovereign’s Honor and How to Guard his Health respectively. … Read the rest here
In Chapter Twelve of Reinterpreting Russian History: Readings, 860-1860s, Daniel Kaiser and Gary Marker decide to include the perspective of an author (Richard Hellie) who thought of the Ulozhenie as the defining moment in the history of serfs in Russia. Hellie’s perspective, while interesting, leaves me with additional questions.
The most intriguing part of Hellie’s point-of-view was that his words seem to create a sharp division in Russian history, a division between pre-1649 and post-1649 (since 1649 was the year that the Ulozhenie was written). … Read the rest here

Fresh theories surrounding Vladimir Putin’s health are circulating after a recent appearance by the Russian president showed him biting his lips, fidgeting and appearing unsteady.
Mr Putin’s appearance at a church service has now sparked rumours that he is unwell after he seemed unable to stand still during the service.
The New York Post extended its remarks on the Sky News Australia report:
The frail-looking strongman is seen swaying during the Mass conducted by the Russian Orthodox Church, which has strongly backed its leader’s so-called “special military operation” in Ukraine.
Putin, 69 — dressed in a dark blue suit, a white shirt and dark purple tie — holds a red candle as he stands in Moscow’s Christ the Savior Cathedral alongside Mayor Sergei Sobyanin.
The warmongering president shifts uncomfortably, sticks out his tongue and bites his lips as Patriarch Kirill announces that “Christ has risen” – joining other members of the congregation with the reply, “Truly he is risen.” …
Last week, he was seen looking bloated and awkwardly gripping a table for support in a clip released by the Kremlin from a meeting with his defense minister, Sergei Shoigu, to discuss the fate of the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol.
Allahpundit wrote about the Putin-Shoigu clip at more length, and it did seem as though Putin was having some physical difficulties. I hadn’t noticed it on the first viewing — I found Shoigu’s presence to be the most surprising part of that clip — but another couple of views made it clear that something was off. Whether that was a one-time issue or signs of advancing decrepitude remains to be seen, but I wrote about rumors that Putin had some serious health issues stretching back to 2020, if not before.
This video, however, looks rather unremarkable to me. It looks more like a man who’s not comfortable standing in one position for any significant length of time, but that could have hundreds of explanations, especially for someone pushing 70. Could it be Parkinson’s? Perhaps, but at best the signs here are more subtle than they were in that clip with Shoigu. This could just as easily have been some back pain, or sheer boredom. I rather doubt that a man who’s ordering the wholesale destruction of cities and mass murder of civilians cares to spend too much time pondering the eschatological mysteries of Christian faith, especially at Easter.
In fact, one has to wonder about Kirill’s state of mind too, not to mention his state of soul. Pope Francis wonders enough about that to send Kirill an Easter message that can best be translated as what are you thinking:
In an Easter message to the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Pope Francis expressed hope that the Holy Spirit would “make us true peacemakers, especially for war-torn Ukraine.”
In a letter published on April 24 on the Moscow Patriarchate’s website, the Pope wrote: “May the Holy Spirit transform our hearts and make us true peacemakers, especially for war-torn Ukraine, so that the great Easter passage from death to new life in Christ may become a reality for the Ukrainian people, who long for a new dawn that will end the darkness of war.”
The Vatican press office took pains to note that Francis sent that same greeting to other Eastern churches celebrating Easter yesterday rather than the Western date of April 17:
Vatican News, the online news portal of the Holy See, said that the Easter greeting was sent not only to Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia but also to the heads of other Eastern Churches that celebrate Easter according to the Julian calendar.
Yes, but that may make the prodding even more pointed. Just the mention of the “Ukrainian people” is a clear rebuke to Kirill’s public endorsement of Putin’s claim that the Ukrainian ethnicity doesn’t exist. The pontiff has come under considerable pressure internally to take a more forceful position regarding Kirill’s endorsement of Putin’s war, as the National Catholic Register notes:
Catholic bishops across Europe have appealed to Kirill — who is considered close to Russian President Vladimir Putin — to speak out against the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, launched on Feb. 24.
Among those who have called on the patriarch to intervene are Poland’s Archbishop Stanisław Gądecki, Germany’s Cardinal Reinhard Marx, Luxembourg’s Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich, and the Irish bishops.
Yet Kirill made it clear yesterday by including Putin in the Easter celebration that he has no plans to rebuke his patron or argue for peace. Putin’s not the only one in this clip that should worry about lightning strikes.

Why use a hydro Jet instead of a cable rooter machine?
There are several ways to clean a drain line. Rooter Drain Expert has the latest in technology and the best in drain cleaning equipment to get any job done big or small. One of our best tools is the Jet Rooter machine also known as hydro jetter. We also use a sewer camera to inspect all the sewer pipes we hydro jet to make sure all pipes are fully cleaned.
The Hydro Jet is a 4,000 psi beam of water that cuts through anything blocking your pipes and drains. We will remove the toughest clogs! We are experts professionals plumbers. Rooter Drain Expert is Licensed and Insured to better serve you.
The cost of using the Hydro Jetter depends on the length of the pipe and the type of mass blocking your pipe or drain. We will do a camera inspection to properly diagnose the problem.
Call us 1800-929-1562
What Is It?
Hydro-jetting is a highly effective method for cleaning and clearing the blocked drains. In this process, the interior walls of your plumbing network will be cleaned of clogs and grime, with the debris washed away by the torrents of highly pressurized water. Our hydro jetting machine can produce pressurized jets of water at more than 4,000 psi. With that kind of pressure virtually any clog–even the toughest–will be flushed out from your sewer line!
A hydro-jetter consists of a water tank, a mechanism to pressurize water and a high pressure hose that is brought to the site where it is used using a cleanout opening in the sewerage pipe. A plumbing system is designed to flow downstream, as gravity carries pipe contents out and away from the building. Therefore, all materials dislodged due to the hydro-jetting process flow down and out of the system. In fact, powerful hydrojetters can handle hundreds of feet of clogged pipe in one go.
Why do I need hydro-jetting?
Hydro-jetting is best solution when old clog removal techniques such as snaking are unsuccessful. Mostly, clogs due to the roots are highly resistant to the traditional techniques and need a more aggressive method. Hydro-jetting is green and highly effective method for scouring inner sides of pipes before they are lined using epoxy resin when relining pipes. Hydro-jetting is the best solution for hotels, restaurants and other businesses that regularly deal with gunky and greasy residues. Furthermore, did you know a drain cleaning snake or rooter can only cut small roots? Once the roots get bigger and tougher you need to bring the heavy machinery–the hydro-jetter!
What’s involved in the hydro-jetting process?
We sometimes also use CCTV cameras before hydrojetting process to find out the exact location of the clogs. The best thing about the use of CCTV cameras is that once you know the location of the clog, it’s easy to remove it. The high pressure water nozzle delivers a powerful punch that can turn anything blocking your pipes into small pieces of debris. We attach different types of nozzles to our hydro-jetting machine depending on the type of clog that needs to be cleared. However, you should not try to use this equipment yourself as handling it improperly could cause injury!
The benefits of horizontal line flushing or hydrojetting are many. Aside from saving you money on costly plumbing replacements and repairs, it can easily clear even stubborn clogs. Years of debris and waste build up, root penetration, soap scum or other residues are easily and quickly removed using hydro-jetting. Best of all, regular maintenance can also extend the life of your sewage system and drains. If you are having issues with sinks, drains and your water lines are backing up, call Rooter Drain Expert, Inc in Los Angeles, CA for getting the best possible results at most affordable rates!

"So, who's the greatest hockey player of all time?"
It's a hoary, old argument that needs to be retired.(Besides, Don Cherry says Bobby Orr is the greatest, so that's that.)
Slam! Sports poses a different question: If you were to build the Ultimate Hockey Player, body part by body part, whose eyes would you use? Whose legs? Whose knuckles?
We asked an all-star cast of NHLers, writers and analysts to select players, past and present, whose prime attributes will be used to build our hockey Frankenstein.
We were looking for the best:
Brains for on ice smarts
Eyes for on-ice vision
Shoulders for carrying his team when needed
Chest for upper-body strength
Elbows for, well, elbowing
Knuckles for fighting
Bum for hip checking
Legs for speed
Feet for agility
Cojones for being ballsy
Hands for stickhandling
Heart for desire
Teeth,or lack thereof, for 'hockey' smiles
Mouth for using words to agitate
Nose and hair for overall hockey appearance
And Liver, for the ability to regale fans and fellow players alike with colourful stories over a pop or two.
The Ultimate Hockey Player:
Brains - Wayne Gretzky (Runner-up Nicklas Lidstrom)
Hair - Ryan Smyth (Runner-up Jaromir Jagr(Early 90's edition)
Eyes - Wayne Gretzky (Runner-up Sidney Crosby)
Nose - Tim Hunter (Runner-up Tiger Williams)
Shoulders - Mark Messier (Runner-up Martin Brodeur)
Mouth - Matthew Barnaby (Runner-up Ken Linseman)
Chest - Zdeno Chara (Runner-up Georges Laraque)
Teeth - Bobby Clarke (Runner-up Dany Heatley)
Elbows - Gordie Howe (Runner-up Mark Messier)
Heart - Steve Yzerman (Runner-up Mark Messier)
Wrists - Bobby Hull (Runner-up Joe Sakic)
Liver - Teemu Selanne (Runner-up Toe Blake)
Knuckles - Georges Larague (Runner-up Dave Semenko)
Hands - Mario Lemieux (Runner-up Kent Nilsson)
Bum - Rob Blake (Runner-up Scott Stevens)
Cojones - Darcy Tucker (Runner-up Mike Keane)
Legs - Pavel Bure (Runner-up Paul Coffey)
Feet - Pavel Bure (Runner-up Bobby Orr)
Took me a while to find this but it is from The Toronto Sun paper published on December 24th.
Would anyone change anything on this "Ultimate NHL player"?
