Eva GONZALÈS
Origin France
Medium Pastel on canvas
Dimensions 46.2 x 38.2 cm (18¹/₄ x 15 inches)
Previously known only from old photographs and only recently rediscovered, the present pastel is a portrait of Jeanne Gonzalès, the artist's younger sister and favourite model, and an artist in her own right. This portrait may be dated to 1879, shortly after Eva Gonzalès's marriage to Henri Guérard. The artist often portrayed her sister in various guises, and she has here chosen to depict her dressed in Eva's own satin wedding dress. (Jeanne was, in fact, to marry Eva's widowed husband a few years after her sister's death. As Belinda Thomson has noted of the present pastel, 'Jeanne went so far as to don the artist's bridal dress when she posed for a pastel head, La mariée...a strangely prophetic act given that nine years on, she in turn would marry the same Henri Guérard following Eva's premature death in childbirth.') Eva Gonzalès painted a second pastel portrait of Jeanne wearing the same wedding dress, posed in profile to the right, which is today in a private collection. These two pastel portraits, both entitled La Mariée (The Bride), were exhibited together several times in later years.
Octave Mirbeau appears to have been one of the first to mention this particular work in print. Writing on the occasion of the posthumous retrospective exhibition of Gonzalès's work, held at the Salons de La Vie Moderne in January 1885, he noted in particular the two La Mariée pastels: 'I love the two studies of brides, which have a freshness and a tender spirit, delicious to see. I find there, in the softness of the shades, in the play of the light on the white fabric and the transparent cloud of veils, a particular caress.'
Jeanne Gonzalès seems to have posed for her sister almost daily, and more than twenty works by Eva – around a third of her surviving oeuvre - may be identified either as portraits of Jeanne8, or have her as their model. As one modern scholar has noted, 'Eva chronicled her sister's life, creating an intimate biography in paint and pastel.' The artist's preoccupation with using her sister as a model is all the more telling as she herself seems never to have produced a formal painted or drawn self-portrait. As the 19th century art historian and critic Claude Roger-Marx perceptively noted of the present pastel, 'This is her dress of white satin, her bridal coiffure, which she will, on two occasions, make Jeanne wear. It is as if she has observed and imagined herself through this duplicate of herself that she loved, bullied, transformed as she pleased, so as to create twenty different sisters...'
Both La Mariée pastels were again singled out for praise in several reviews of the exhibition of Eva Gonzalès's work held at the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune in Paris in 1914. Writing in La Chronique des Arts, the critic Louis Hautecoeur noted of the artist that, 'She achieves a true mastery of pastel: her Bridesmaids or her Brides prove it: she works with hatched strokes that confine light and shade within the continuity of their lines; she likes the subtle shades, the nuances of pale, but colourful, grays, these scenes of quiet intimacy, and some of these pastels are excellent works.' Another review of the exhibition, in the magazine Art et Décoration, noted in particular the 'small pastel portraits of women (Woman with a Red Hat, The Bride, The Bridesmaid, The Bunch of Violets)...all charming in their candour, with a very personal focus and, without seeming to be, of astonishing virtuosity in the brevity and the uniform economy of their execution.'
Executed in 1879, this splendid pastel portrait remained in Gonzalès's studio until her death, and was included in the posthumous exhibition of her work in 1885. The painting passed to her sister Jeanne Gonzalès, the model for the present work, and is listed (as 'La mariée, pastel par Eva Gonzalès') in an inventory compiled by Henri Guérard on 25 May 1897. The pastel was later recorded in the possession of the artist's son, Jean-Raymond Guérard, in 1924, and was included in an exhibition of Gonzalès's work in a Parisian gallery in 1932. After that, however, this pastel portrait was lost until its recent discovery in an American private collection. Its reappearance confirms its status as one of the finest examples of the relatively small corpus of pastels produced during the brief career of Eva Gonzalès, as well as among the most intimate and personal of all her works.

COVID 19: Keep Calm and Corona On – A Global Perspective
March 16, 2020 by Jonathan Cordwell, posted in Big Data, Cloud Enable, Communicate, Internet of Things, IT Leader, Mobilize, Network, Secure
Jonathan Cordwell – Principal Analyst, UK Health & Social Care Technology
Companies that have yet to jump on the remote working bandwagon may have their hand forced due to the self-isolation and social separation measures put in place by their respective national governments.
We will undoubtedly see an uptick in the adoption of telehealth technologies, including remote monitoring.
On the 11th March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 (Coronavirus) a pandemic. As of writing, there have been over 130,000 cases reported across 123 countries, areas or territories and almost 5,000 deaths from the virus, which emanated from Wuhan in China. We have witnessed a wide variety of responses to the threat including mass self-isolation in Italy, travel bans, fiscal stimulus packages, health insurance policy allowances, business and school closures, and the cancellation of large events such as Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and HIMSS20 in Orlando, at which U.S. President Trump was scheduled to address the situation.
Despite positive news that the spread of the virus is slowing down in China, global fears remain, made worse by the absence of a vaccine. The economic impact of such an event will reverberate throughout the world and will prompt organizations, especially those within the health and social care landscape, to review their operations and priorities moving forward. With this in mind, here is a selection of potential market shifts that could result from the COVID-19 pandemic, with a particular focus on health and social care.
Greater measures established to promote a remote workforce culture
There is a wide spectrum of preparedness for remote working varying from the sheer nature of the business in question to the culture of its leadership and workforce. There are benefits and drawbacks in doing so but in general, it is seen as a positive trend. Those who have yet to jump on the bandwagon may have their hand forced due to the self-isolation and social separation measures put in place by their respective national governments. More remote working would lead to greater demand in devices such as laptops and consumer-targeted office equipment instead of a fixed, office-based set-up. Other technologies that would likely benefit from the outbreak include virtual private networks (VPNs) and virtual conferencing tools, which ensure that teams are connected and have secure access to necessary work materials.
Broader adoption of telehealth technologies
In a similar vein to remote working, we will undoubtedly see an uptick in the adoption of telehealth technologies, including remote monitoring. These aim to kill two birds with one stone as not only will they help restrict the spread of the virus but they will also ease the strain on in-hospital resources. In the UK for example, the NHS workforce is already stretched, without the additional demands of the pandemic, with over 100,000 staff vacancies listed nationwide. Just last week, NHS England also urged 7,000 general practice (GP) surgeries to reduce face-to-face appointments with patients displaying symptoms of COVID-19 and instead communicate with them remotely. Telehealth is already forecasted to grow in popularity but the outbreak will likely accelerate its adoption further.
Increased investment in genomic research
Genomics continues to gain traction but, like other forward-thinking and preventative health initiatives, has lacked the sense of urgency that would place it firmly in the spotlight. COVID-19 has promptly done just that. On the 12th of January, China made the genome sequencing of novel coronavirus publicly available to develop diagnostic kits and a potential vaccine. Not only will genomic research receive a boost from the outbreak but we may also see greater efforts to integrate and centralize masses of clinical data for analytical purposes. This in itself will spur further investment in ICT but in order to securely integrate, store, access, and utilize mass quantities of data, it will also require a robust supporting infrastructure.
Relaxation of the drug approval lifecycle
US President Trump's suggestion that traditional flu vaccines could have an impact on COVID-19 speaks volumes about his leadership style in that he wants immediate results along with all the accompanying glory from its success. Couple this with the ten-plus years it takes to bring a new drug to market and you have a recipe for impending policy reviews. Some reports have suggested that existing drugs may help fight the virus but it begs the question of what would happen if this wasn't the case. Alongside a more relaxed approach to pharmaceutical approvals, we could also see an uptick in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation technologies to help speed up clinical trials and reduce the overall lifecycle of bringing drugs to market.
Acceleration of diagnostic tests
Mere days ago, there were reports that some patients in the UK had to wait up to five days to receive the results of diagnostic testing for COVID-19. More resources have since been brought in to help and reduce this down to a day or two. Hackensack Meridian Health Center for Discovery and Innovation recently announced that they have been able to reduce diagnostic tests down to hours. Private labs are also chomping at the bit to conduct their own tests but regulatory approvals, a shortage of materials, and questions over reimbursement have caused significant delays. Whilst the delay in diagnosis may not seem catastrophic, it lengthens the period during which a patient may decide to ignore self-isolation instructions and unintentionally spread the virus further. Investment into diagnostics may receive a short-term boost but whether this continues once the outbreak has subsided remains to be seen.
Whilst there are swathes of people who remain unaffected by COVID-19 and continue to grumble at the minor inconveniences such as the empty shelves at supermarkets caused by panic buying or the cancellation of sporting events, it's important to recognize that this has claimed the lives of thousands of innocent victims across the world and should not be taken lightly. It is important to follow official protocol and yet remain calm in the face of this rising threat. Our condolences go out to the family and friends of those who have been affected. Stay safe.

We made a life-sized gingerbread girl craft!
This week's creative preschool learning theme is all about Christmas. I remember how much my son loved his giant gingerbread boy craft when he was younger so I thought it would be fun for Little Sister to make one this year. She loved it! My son had the most adorable smile when I was tracing around him on the paper and his sister thought it was the funniest thing. She especially loved laying down inside her cookie and next to it.
We used giant butcher paper that someone had given me. If you do not have large enough paper, you could tape a few together on the back side. Have the child lay down on the paper with their arms at their sides. Trace around them using a pencil. After they get up, you may wish to outline it with marker. It made it easier for my daughter to see.
Even though we used brown-colored paper, I still had my daughter paint her gingerbread girl with brown paint. When it dried, I cut around the shape.
Have the child decorate their gingerbread person however they'd like. We have a bag of jumbo buttons that come in different shapes and colors that I brought out for Little Sister to glue on. She also glued on two black eyes and a red bow which I had pre-cut using construction paper. She drew on the mouth with a black marker and I drew on some eyelashes.
I happened to have white ric-rac on hand from my Grandma which ended up being perfect for this craft! Cut strips from it and have the child glue them on the arms, legs, and anywhere else you'd like. Trim off any overhang. Alternatively, you could use white paint, string, ribbon, or puffy paint.
She finished by decorating the shirt area with all different colors of glitter glue.
I had her lay down next to her gingerbread cut out so she could compare her size to it and see if it matched. We also got out the measuring tape and measured both of them. Another fun way to measure would be to count how many hands or feet high it is.
It's now hanging on the closet door as a Christmas decoration!
Disclosure: We received free products and compensation for this post. All opinions are 100% mine and not influenced in any way. Please see our full disclosure policy here.
My daughter loves gluing with the glue pen! It comes out in a controlled amount instead of blobs of glue that are way more than she needs. It's also easier for her to squeeze. They are designed specifically for preschoolers and promote the tripod grip, a proper writing grip, with their triangular shape. The shape also is great because our glue sticks no longer run off plus the caps fit on the top. The Early Learner's product line also includes a glue stick. Both go on purple but dry clear. This helps little ones see where they have placed the glue and where they may have missed.
Gingerbread Busy Bag Learning Activities – we love busy bags!
Gingerbread Theme – several ideas!
Cardboard Gingerbread Man and House – love the way they decorated them!
Cardboard Tube Craft – adorable!
Don't forget to stop by our preschool buddies to see what they are sharing!
Twice a month we will be sharing ideas for the same preschool theme. This weeks creative preschool learning theme is Christmas. Come back in two weeks for Scissor Skills!
My daughter would get such a kick out of decorating a gingerbread girl her own size. How fun!!
I love this activity. I will have to try this with our four.
That would be so cute Theresa!
This is such a neat craft! 🙂 I'm definitely going to try this out with my son.


Another congrats to Andrea Brady for typing this today. Even though her dad isn't on the web, he can be celebrated by the people who visit the blog today. Not only congrats to Andrea but happy fathers day to her dad!

Rio Gota ou Göta (;  ouça a pronúncia) é um rio da Suécia, que flui do lago Vener, passando pelas cidades de Venersburgo, Trollhättan, Kungälv e Gotemburgo antes de desaguar no estreito de Categate. O rio propriamente dito tem comprimento de 93 quilômetros, enquanto o rio incluindo o curso de água a montante desde a sua nascente em Härjedalen tem extensão de 746 quilômetros. Em conjunto, o Gota, o Vener e o rio Clar, um afluente que deságua no Vener, constituem o maior "rio" da Escandinávia - o chamado "rio Gota-Clar" (Göta älv-Klarälven), com 200 quilômetros na Noruega e 520 na Suécia.

O Gota tem uma bacia hidrográfica de  quilômetros quadrados (incluindo Vener e os seus afluentes), dos quais  estão na Suécia e o restante na Noruega. Seu fluxo médio na foz é de aproximadamente 611 metros cúbicos por segundo. É notável por seu papel na navegação fluvial, produção de energia elétrica e fornecimento de água potável. De realçar ainda, o Gota dá acesso ao lago Vener, onde começa o Canal de Gota, permitindo a viagem de barco de Gotemburgo a Estocolmo, através do interior do país.

Etimologia e uso

O hidrônimo Göta deriva da palavra sueca antiga Götar (plural de göt/göte, nome do grupo étnico habitante da região), enquanto o substantivo comum que o acompanha, älv, designa "rio", e derivou de ælf. Significa, literalmente, "rio dos Gotas" (götarnas älv).

Foi mencionado em nórdico antigo como Elfina () pelo historiador islandês Snorri Sturluson, em sueco como Gautelfr (), Elfr (1325), Stora Elffwan (1644) e Giötha Ellf (1686), e ainda em latim como Albis fluvius e Gothelba (1070) na obra Atos dos Bispos da Igreja de Hamburgo do historiador Adão de Bremen.

I highly recommend Rowe Weinstein & Sohn, PLLC. I hired Joshua Berman for my personal injury case after a car accident and I could not ask for a bettter service. Mr. Berman explained the benefits of experienced legal representation after a car accident. My case has just been finalized and I received even more than I expected!
I got rear ended and Josh Berman was recommended to me by a friend who was a colleague of his in law school. Josh always put my health first, making sure that I was always getting top notch treatment. He would call and check in with me on a daily basis.
He did a great job of guiding me through the process of working with the various insurance companies involved. If I were to need Josh's services again (hopefully I don't!), I would definitely use him.
Rob Rowe is a great attorney. Highly recommend him.
Very fine firm to work with. I've personally been represented by Mr. Berman, and my family had representation of Mr. Berman and Mr. Rowe in civil litigation matters, and have found them to be absolutely excellent to work with. The lawyers and support staff there are responsive and willing to go above and beyond to ensure a satisfying outcome for their clients. Their offices are modern, welcoming and conveniently located on Rockville Pike.
Rowe, Weinstein, and Sohn has touched and changed the lives of many, my family being one. Veteran attorney and Principal, Robinson Rowe leads an exceptionally amazing team. There aren't enough words to describe the brilliant tact Mr. Rowe executes. He has tremendously transformed our family with the splendid favors he has applied to our cases. I have come across numerous attorneys but have yet to see one as poised as Mr. Rowe. Not only is he extremely good at winning high profile cases, he is also a caring supportive friend who genuinely appreciates his clients. Mr. Rowe works wonders when faced with the toughest of challenges and is undoubtedly there for all concerns. We have recommended him to numerous close friends and family members, and he has not failed to provide over the top resolutions. He makes it his duty to assuredly inform you about your case, which is what builds the enormous trust and reliance. The entire firm creates a warm-loving atmosphere, especially with the lawful expertise of fellow colleagues Joshua Berman, Benjamin Bruins, and Domonic Cusimano who have also superbly extended legal advice to majorly assist with significant matters. There's an unexplainable confidence that overtakes you when someone from Rowe, Weinstein, and Sohn is your form of representation. I can recall Joshua Berman taking the time out of his excessively busy schedule to sincerely listen to my issue and provide sufficient aide to guide me. Dominic came to the rescue of my father during countless unfavorable traffic cases, and Benjamin is the thorough strategically minded attorney fully equipped to tackle corporate giants and big businesses. Collectively, they exhibit an admirably, brilliant, team-building, tenaciously professional work force where clients become friends and have a place they can call home. Mr. Rowe and his entire practice is truly in the top rankings as one of the best firms our area has ever seen!
Mr. Rowe represented me in a very serious case and we beat everything at trial. The Judge absolutely loved him. Everyone in the courthouse loves him. From the very start he made me feel at ease and very confident about my case. He was in total control of the courtroom and before I new it, I heard the words "not guilty". I am so lucky to have found him. He really was a gift from God !
It is amazing how quickly a person's lifelong hard work and achievements can be put at risk due to unfortunate incidents. I put in too many years of hard work and have achieved a lot: I am a professional with two careers and have a strong history of being a good citizen, so I didn't want anyone but the best to represent me in my criminal defense with so much to lose if not successful. I made a good decision after performing careful research and choosing Robinson Rowe of Rowe Weinstein & Sohn, PLLC to represent me. Mr. Rowe is no doubt a busy man, but he and his team were brilliant. I told Mr. Rowe what happened, why I needed an expert legal team, my concerns, and why my situation might be different than that of other clients. Mr. Rowe was very easy to talk to. From that point forward, Mr. Rowe and his team took care of everything, and advocated for me with the intensity and vigor that I possessed, but with Robinson Rowe's rare and outstanding expertise and capability that clearly made a positive difference in my criminal defense case. I highly recommend Robinson Rowe and his team because they are capable, professional, friendly, and get results while maintaining a positive rapport with seemingly all parties involved in the process such as the client, the judge, the opposing attorney, and even various administrative clerks — all of those qualities matter to me, and I feel those qualities are much of what make an outstanding lawyer.
Sadly I have had my run-ins with the maryland judicial system and have served time in the past. I've used 2 different lawyers prior to Mr Rowe. The responsiveness, knowledge and trustworthiness I received from Rob and his firm was "over the top" compared to my previous lawyers. I was recommended to him by a friend and going to Mr Rowe saved my entire future.
Outstandingly stellar attorney, none like him!
There aren't enough words to describe the brilliant tact Mr. Rowe executes. He has tremendously transformed our family with the superb favors he has applied to our cases. I have come across numerous attorneys but have yet to see one as poised as Mr. Rowe. Not only is he extremely good at winning high profile cases, he is also a caring supportive friend who genuinely appreciates his clients. He makes it his duty to assuredly inform you about your case, which is what builds the enormous trust and confidence. Mr. Rowe works wonders when faced with the toughest of challenges and is undoubtedly there for all concerns. We have recommended him to close friends, and he has not failed to provide over the top resolutions. Mr. Rowe is truly in the top rankings as one of the best attorney our area as ever seen!
Truly a blessing for our family.
We received so many advertisements from other lawyers we didn't know what to do. We first made the mistake of hiring a different lawyer who was horrible. While we were waiting in court, we saw Mr. Rowe handling a case and he was so impressive I asked my sister to get his business card. It was an act of God that we found out about Mr. Rowe. He is the best. Sitting in court with Mr. Rowe by our sides gave us comfort and confidence. Such a blessing how he handled our case. Mr. Rowe, if you ever read this, I want you to know that we will be forever grateful for your help. Our lives would be totally different if not for you. God has blessed you with a great mind, and you are a truly talented man.
I am so happy I chose Mr. Rowe !
I didn't know which attorney to hire for my case, thankfully, I was talking to a friend who told me that he and another person we both know had used him and that he was the only one I should use. From the moment I stepped into his office, I could tell that he was different from the other attorneys I met. I was found NOT GUILTY ON ALL CHARGES. I can't thank him enough. He truly is the only attorney I will ever use.
I am an attorney who hired Rob on a recommendation from a colleague and couldn't be happier with his representation.
Simply put, he has been nothing short of amazing. Attentive, responsive, considerate and of course, incredibly knowledgeable. Returned phone calls promptly, managed my expectations perfectly, then exceeded them from start to finish.
In a world full of attorneys who are often times full of themselves, Rob is absolutely selfless. If you didn't know it, you would think by his attentiveness and consideration that he was a new associate trying to impress the boss, not the boss himself.
Finally, his rates were more than reasonable… (Sorry to tell you Rob) I would have paid twice what he (you) charged.
I will never use anyone else.
The best lawyer in Maryland!!!
Robinson Rowe was an amazing lawyer! I was originally very nervous about my case, but after speaking with Mr. Rowe, I couldn't have felt better about it. Mr. Rowe was very friendly, caring, and most importantly, knowledgable. He gave me peace of mind , and I left his office knowing that I had the best lawyer in Maryland representing me! The day of my court date, I met with him and he told me to go out to Main Street and get lunch with my parents who were also present. When I got back to the courthouse, Mr. Rowe walked out of the courtroom and handed me two pieces of paper and said "congratulations, you're dismissed of all charges". I could not have been happier with who I chose to represent me. I would recommend Robinson Rowe to absolutely anyone in need of legal help.
Mr. Rowe represented my fiancé in a police stop. Mr.Rowe is a man about his business. He's knowledgeable , caring and understanding. Frankly there are not enough words too describe this man ,he has been a god send. If you need a lawyer Mr. Rowe is the lawyer you want!!!!!! He will get the job done.
EXTREME INTELLIGENCE OF THE LAW!
Robinson Rowe was a gift from God to two small town ladies. Never did we ever dream that we would have such fine representation, as we did with Mr. Rowe. He is Intelligent, Profressional, Kind, and most of all Understanding. There is not enough words to express our gratitude to him and his associates. Thank you so very much!
Mr. Rowe was reffered to me by a close friend who had requested Mr. Rowes services in the past and came at an extremly High recommendation! I took my friends advice and have nothing but phenominal things to say. His reviews and results speak for themselves. He truly protects the wrongly accused and I cannot recommend his services enough.
Rob Rowe is a truly gifted lawyer and human being. He defended me against a DUI (#2) with probationary results. I immediately liked and trusted Rob. His interpersonal skills are superb, he has a wonderful and kind nature about him. He knows the law and how best to go about presenting a winning case. The really good news for any of you future clients is to know Rob has been on the other side, as a prosecutor in the same Montgomery County Courts. I saw Rob engage and receive respect from many other lawyers and cops waiting outside our courtroom. It's really great to have a true professional like Rob put together a masterful case knowing how the opposing side thinks and acts. Rob is clearly THE best lawyer for serious driving charges like mine. His partner David Weinstein also defended me on a speeding ticket and that resulted in a PBJ. On a personal note, I feel so fortunate to have been represented by this law firm – it's given me a second (make that third) chance to be responsible and serious about moving forward.
I came to this firm and was given the greatest service a client could ask for. My lawyers were repsonsive and kept me informed for every single detail within my case that they managed so well. I would not have been able to do anything without them. I felt like the best part was the great relationship that was built between us and I knew that I was working with people who knew what they were doing. I dont think I would refer anyone to any other law firm than Robinson Rowe's. He did great!
Even better than his reviews !
I hired Robinson Rowe after researching a lot of attorneys. His reviews on this avvo website played a large part in my decision to consult with him. I hired him on the spot, and have to say that he exceeded all of my expectations. I have read many good reviews about him, but I don't have the words to say how great he was. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU !
I have seen many attorney's, including Mr. Rowe, teach trial classes before. When my family member needed a lawyer, he was the only one we went to see. He was amazing from beginning to end. We were impressed at the way he prepared the case and witnesses for trial. We were blown away at how he dismantled the opposing witnesses on the stand during cross-examination. He is extremely bright and charming. My family would highly recommend Mr. Rowe.
He has the absolute trust and faith of my family.
Without discussing the personal matters for which we hired Mr. Rowe, he and his firm were beyond spectacular. We are lucky to have such a great lawyer on our side.
I was referred to Mr. Rowe by a friend who works in the Courthouse and has seen all of the best lawyers. Mr. Rowe was absolutely the best possible attorney I could have wished for. He was so impressive, a person inside the courtroom followed us out of the courthouse and tried to hire him on the spot.


Get ready for a lot of augment talk.
A new gameplay demo for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided will be streamed live tomorrow on the game's official Twitch account. The times for the demo are as follows: 8:30PT/11:30ET/16:30BST/17:30CEST. The demo, apparently dubbed the "City-Hub Gameplay Demo" promises new reveals, presumably for powers and weapons we've yet to see from the game.
A few weeks ago, Square Enix released a new trailer for Mankind Divided, which showcased the game's darker themes of augmentation discrimination and its "Mechanical Apartheid." The game takes place in the year 2027, when those with augmentations begin to lose control of themselves and attack other humans. You can check out the trailer below.
Last year, Mankind Divided was was leaked a day before the game was to be announced, a fact that Square Enix still seems a little salty about. Earlier this year we learned that the game had been delayed from its original February 2016 release date all the way down to August. The game is now slated for August 23, and is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
What do you think of how Mankind Divided is shaping up? Let us know in the comments.

Home/Dating History/Who has Billie Eilish dated? Billie Eilish's Dating History
Olivia Wilson 6 days ago
Billie is one of the most renowned singers in the music industry nowadays, and for good reason. Since the release of "Ocean Eyes" in 2015, Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas have gained popularity worldwide.
Although Billie is still young, her musical brilliance is undeniable. Her songs have reached top positions in the US charts and in other countries, in addition to being the winner of several Grammy and MTV Awards, and she's even the holder of two Guinness World Records.
Besides her impressive career accomplishments, Billie's personal life has been widely speculated on. Her statements about how she doesn't want her body to be perceived, her lifestyle and most of all her romantic life have caused uproar in her fanbase and the general media.
So do you want to know who are the lucky ones are, who have conquered Billie Eilish's heart? Accompany us to discover them!

1.1 Henry Whitford
1.2 7:AMP
1.2.1 Split and 7:AMP's Statement
2 Who Has Billie Eilish Rumored Dated?

Who Has Billie Eilish Dated?
Being a worldwide known musician before your 20's mustn't be easy.
A post shared by BILLIE EILISH (@billieeilish)
For starters, the pressure is probably overwhelming as well as the expectations put on you. In Billie Eilish's case, fame hasn't changed who she is, but has certainly limited what she can show in public.
It's not surprising that Billie has so far only revealed few details about her dating life, though that has certainly only helped to create more speculations regarding the topic.
Henry Whitford
There's not a lot to say about Henry Whitford, except for the fact he was the one Billie shared her first kiss with. Although Billie is known for keeping details about her romantic life secret, her short love stunt with Whitford was surprisingly shared by herself during her live tour in 2019. However, despite how lovely the prospect of experiencing a first kiss is expected to be, in Billie Eilish's case the incident left nothing but a bad taste in her mouth.
As it's obvious, details about Whitford as well as the way Billie met him are undisclosed.
The only thing we know is that he was never Billie's boyfriend, but an acquaintance or something close to a friend at best.
The occurrence dates back to 12 February 2017, when the then 15-year-old Billie and Whitford were stargazing on a rooftop after watching a 'terrible' movie of unknown title. That's when Witford kissed Billie and although that wasn't a big problem, he also decided to immediately point out how bad the kiss had been, and that it wasn't as 'magical' as he had apparently imagined. That quickly turned a moment meant to be special into a bad memory.
Maybe the film they watched was foreshadowing how bad that night turned out to be, but judging by the way Billie publicly admitted such an embarrassing moment had happened, she certainly seems to have overcome it a long time ago. What she didn't foresee is that her fans were able to find Whitford's alleged Instagram page, ultimately bombarding him with messages remarking on how rude he had been towards Billie.
Though Billie didn't address the issue and neither did Witford, he proceeded to limit the comments on his account for a while, and eventually the incident was forgotten.
7:AMP
Billie Eilish's romance with the rapper 7:AMP has only been known recently publicly, despite the fact that the true nature of their long-time acquaintance was always questioned. Rumors of Billie and the rapper's possible romantic relationship started in early 2019, when she was showcased on the cover of his album "Bleaupro". However, the lack of proof that there was something beyond a friendship between them was enough to shut down any speculation for a while.
Nonetheless, the real extent of their relationship and subsequent seemingly dramatic split were revealed through the 2021 Apple+ documentary "The World's A Little Blurry", which is centered around Billie Eilish's career and personal life, going from her 2016's rise to fame to her 2020 Grammys victory.

— Billie Eilish Updates (@eilishupdates) February 18, 2019
The documentary-film showcases a more intimate view of Billie's life, and as expected, it wasn't easy to hide how intense and even unsteady her romance with 7:AMP was.
In the documentary, Billie can be seen calling her then-boyfriend as "Q", using it as a diminutive of Brandon Quention Adams, his real name. Following the film' scenes, Adams appeared in Billie's life shortly before her 17th birthday in December 2018, which they celebrated together at an ice skating rink.
On her birthday, she also confessed her love for him, though their happiness was apparently short lived, and by Valentine's Day they were separated by distance, plus Adams's apparent emotional detachment and as Billie can be heard saying that the whole situation made her feel 'lonely'.
In the following months the relationship didn't improve a lot.
Not long after Billie's Coachella performance in April, Adams broke his hand by punching a wall, leading her to admit that she was trying to convince him to go figure out his alleged destructive tendencies in therapy.
Split and 7:AMP's Statement
June 2019 ultimately saw the end of the romance. The initiative to end things between them was apparently taken by Billie, who admittedly wasn't feeling happy with him anymore, despite the fact she supposedly hadn't stopped loving him: 'I don't think you should be in a relationship, super excited about certain things that the other person couldn't care less about', she said in a concert backstage room, as the documentary shows.
While by the time Billie's documentary premiered, all of those incidents dated back to a few years prior, the revelations unsurprisingly caused uproar in her fanbase, and soon enough Adams received a huge backlash on social media for it.
He defended himself by saying he was going through some difficult personal times during his relationship with Billie, and that despite it, he didn't think he deserved to be 'bashed'.
Billie also defended him by saying she was grateful for her fans' protective attitude, but that she wanted them to stop the attacks towards her ex-boyfriend.
Who Has Billie Eilish Rumored Dated?
Knowing how famous and talented Billie Eilish is, it's not surprising more than a few people have tried to gain her affections. Besides that, a variety of celebrities have also been linked to her despite the fact their acquaintance seems to be only friendly.
The story of Shawn Mendes and Billie Eilish is quite funny. It's unclear if they're really friends or not, but they've surely been acquainted, before considering Mendes was bold enough to send her direct messages on Instagram.
However, Billie was either disinterested by his message or wasn't simply in the mood to answer him, ultimately leaving the fellow singer on read.
Nonetheless, their fans didn't get a hold of that funny information until Billie herself revealed it during an interview with the magazine 'First We Feast' in August 2019. After being asked who was the last famous person she talked to through her 'phone, without shame she said: 'Shawn Mendes texted me, but I didn't respond', following her statement with uproarious laughter.
Unsurprisingly, Billie's remark caused a reaction on social media, and the laughter of many, including Mendes himself who even commented on a clip of Eilish's response with a short 'LOL wow' on Twitter.
Though that brief and hilarious interaction was nothing romantic, their fans quickly started topic threads on sites such as Quora and Reddit, to discuss whether or not Billie and Mendes would make a good couple. While some of them argued it was impossible or not likely to happen, some other fans claimed that both singers had too many things in common, which could make them compatible in the love field.
Whether that is a real possibility is yet to be known, as Mendes is nowadays in a relationship with the pop singer Camila Cabello.
For the time being, Billie Eilish's career seems unstoppable, and that obviously has taken the attention of not only music fans around the world, but from her fellow artists in the entertainment industry.
Considering that, it's not surprising that Billie is asked out by men everywhere, even in the most audacious, imprudent ways. The rapper Lil Pump is a good example of that.
Everything started in April 2020, when Billie was on Instagram Live singing the soundtrack of the 1999's movie "American Beauty" on her piano. The more than 130,000 people who were watching her at the time were overjoyed to hear her musical interpretation, though they also noticed Lil Pump was eagerly sending a lot of messages to Billie through the live comment section.
Pump's intentions were pretty clear to everyone though, as he boldly tried to ask Billie out, and even requested her to let him 'wife her', plus a couple of heart emojis.
At first Billie ignored his attitude, but at some point she couldn't help herself, and started laughing at his comments, though she quickly tried to clarify that she couldn't say what she was laughing about, even if it was pretty obvious to everyone watching that she found Lil Pump's messages hilarious.
Minutes later she let him down, by saying 'no thanks' and proceeding to keep ignoring him.
Does Lil Pump still have a chance with Billie? No one knows for sure yet, but it seems more probable that she would accept his advances if he asks her out in person, and not publicly.
Bhad Bhabie
There was a time when people thought Billie Eilish was dating Bhad Bhabie, a.k.a Danielle Bregoli, the teenage girl famous for her 'catch me outside' viral phrase, who is nowadays pursuing a music career.
A post shared by ℬ𝒽𝒶𝒷𝒾ℯ🦋 (@bhadbhabie)
Although it's already confirmed that there was nothing but a friendship between Billie and Bregoli, no one can fault their fans for genuinely believing the pair was together back then.
The two girls' acquaintanceship started in early 2018, when they followed each other on Instagram, and developed an online friendship through messages. Later, on 18 June that year, they finally met each other in person, though their first encounter was bittersweet due to the fact it coincided with the rapper XXXTentacion's death.
Following Bregoli's words, she and Billie headed home and spent the rest of the day crying and listening to the deceased rapper's music, which definitely made their newly-acquired friendship stronger. During the following weeks the girls hung out, and pics of them were all over the internet. However, what definitely awakened the rumors of a possible romance was that Bregoli posted a pic of Billie on her Snapchat that said: 'You have to look like this to be my girlfriend.'
Bregoli also reportedly had Billie's contact saved as 'my love'. Though other than that there wasn't a lot of evidence of their alleged relationship, their fans were definitely convinced something was happening. However, to the dismay of the many people rooting for them, Billie quickly shut down the speculations by stating Bregoli was just 'her baby sister'.
The two girls' friendship ended sometime ago. As Bregoli said in late 2020, Billie has put distance between them, and doesn't answer her messages anymore.
Billie Eilish's Views On Privacy and Love
Regardless of her young age, Billie Eilish has been careful when it comes to how much she lets the world know about her personal issues.
It's only recently that Billie has opened up about topics such as her past relationships, and self-esteem. In an interview with CQ Magazine, she admitted to having 'never felt desired' by her past boyfriends, which is a feeling she directly connects to her unconformity with her body image.
While that's partially the reason she dresses the way she does, her fashion choices are also guided by her mood and sense of style.
Later in September 2020, Billie also revealed that she regrets publicly letting people know the tiny bits of her dating life she has had, probably referencing her short romance with Whitford and the backlash it brought him.
Billie is also convinced that revealing too much about her love life can have negative effects in the long run, especially when it comes to how the general public perceives from it: 'And it's like, what if it goes bad? And then everybody has this whole opinion on your relationship that they have no idea about', she told Capital Breakfast.
So will people's opinions of Billie Eilish change, based on her romantic life? There's no way to know for sure, though her decision to retain some privacy is completely understandable, and admittedly her unapologetic attitude regarding this topic is one of the many reasons she's loved by everyone.

Dr. Minton's Prosthodontic training had a heavy emphasis on esthetics, and he trained under one of the world's leading lecturers in the field of esthetics. There are several methods that can be used to improve the esthetics of your smile.
Bleaching teeth can reduce the brown and yellow discoloration of teeth.
Very minor reshaping of teeth in the appropriate areas can rejuvenate worn or chipped teeth.
White filling material can be used to restore the shape of teeth.
Primarily for esthetics, veneers are made of all ceramics and can help restore the contour and shade of your teeth. They are used to close spaces, restore the shape and proportions of teeth, adjust the shade of your teeth and help correct a "gummy" smile. Great results require careful planning and often times the assistance of other specialists.


The investment gap for the SDGs remains significant. Additional long-term resources need to be mobilized from all sources to implement the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Sustainable finance is still a small fraction of overall financial activity in private markets, as it is only now beginning to be mainstreamed into the business models of the financial industry. In addition, it needs to be ensured that investment for the SDGs is inclusive and leaves no one behind.
The SDG Investment Fair was established in 2018 to facilitate direct informal interaction among representatives of governments of developing countries, the private sector and financial intermediaries with a view of accelerating the mobilization of investment for the SDGs. In 2019, the SDGI Fair will be scaled-up further to increase its impact towards the closure of the SDG investment gap.
The Financing for Sustainable Development Office (FSDO)/Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) and the Division on Investment and Enterprise (DIAE)/United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), along with other partners, will organize the 2019 SDG Investment Fair from 15 to 17 April 2019 in conjunction with the 2019 ECOSOC Forum on Financing for Development follow-up at UN Headquarters in New York.
The SDGI Fair provides a central platform for "Closing the SDG investment gap" through its focus on national and international efforts to mobilize sufficient investment for sustainable development. It aims to do this through a combination of policy discussions, peer learning, engagement and partnerships with key actors from public and private sectors.
Create space for direct interaction between countries and investors, for example through presentation of investment plans and projects by governments.
As part of its effort to mobilize investments, the SDGI Fair will also announce the "Global Investors for Sustainable Development" (GISD) Alliance. GISD will be a CEO-driven Alliance convened by the Secretary-General that will focus on incentivizing investments for sustainable development through addressing policy and institutional impediments.
The SDGI Fair will provide participants with ample opportunities for networking and informal exchanges. Government and private sector representatives will be able to arrange bilateral meetings to discuss opportunities for investment deals and cooperation.
Follow-up on any solutions reached during the policy spotlight segment.
The SDGI Fair will comprise of different dynamic segments using various session formats with a strong focus on interactivity among participants. Each of these segments will be organized in conjunction but without duplication with the ECOSOC FFD Forum.
An opening High-Level session that will include the launch of the GISD Alliance by the Secretary-General, as well as Ministers and business representatives at the CEO-Level.
Peer Learning: Sessions will feature presentations of investment plans and projects by countries. Countries will have the opportunity to showcase specific measures they have taken to mobilize investment for sustainable development, with a focus of identifying critical lessons for other countries.
Policy Spotlights: Sessions will be held to address critical policy and regulatory issues relating to the mobilization of long-term private finance for sustainable development. The sessions may be organized by relevant stakeholders and will build on/go beyond the discussions at the FfD Forum with a view of providing additional space to go into more depth on specific issues.
Partnership Arena: This space will feature presentations of initiatives by representatives from the UN system and the private sector. Presenters will have the opportunity to share information about recent activities that aim to mobilize SDG investment through innovative partnerships.
Café Conversations: This segment will feature highly informal sessions on specific topics, such as sectoral investment policies. These sessions may also be organized by relevant stakeholders.
Closing session: This will be an open discussion at the conclusion of the Fair where feedback, highlights over the two days and next steps will be discussed.
Experts from think tanks, foundations and academia.
Generally, all FfD Forum participants are invited to attend the Fair. Registration for "SDGI Fair-only" participants is available here.
The 2019 SDGI Fair is organized by FSDO/DESA and DIAE/UNCTAD, in cooperation with Global Compact, PRI, UNEP-FI, UNDP, UNIDO, FAO, IFAD, ILO, UN Foundation, ITU, UNCDF, UN Office for Partnerships, IFC, as well as the ICC and the Global Partnerships Forum. FSDO is organizing regular consultation meetings with its partners on the organization of the SDGI Fair.
As part of the preparatory process, workshops will be held in selected countries with the aim of developing their investment plans and project proposals to a stage where they can be presented at the SDGI Fair.

Buhle Samuels: "My bum is not fake!"
Johannesburg - Buhle Samuels has been causing all kinds of frenzies with her voluptuous behind, and now vendors in Johannesburg are giving Muvhango fans a chance to have a booty like Buhle's- for as little as R150.
According to Sowetan, vendors in Johannesburg CBD are selling bum enhancement pads called 'Matshidiso bum pads'- named after Buhle's character, Matshidiso Mofokeng, on the popular soapie.
Vendors told the paper that the pads, which are designed to add extra shape to your otherwise flat bum, are extremely popular, and sell well over 30-40 pads a day, according to one vendor.
Buhle, who came put a couple of months ago to say that her bum is 100 percent real, did not respond to the papers story.
But at least we know where to go shopping next time we want to get us a bigger booty to twerk with.

Q: How to add items to a map in DynamoDB I'm using the AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient with nodejs (lambda functions on AWS)
I've to a db called Translations, primary key Term, sort key Category.
Basically I'm trying to write data in like this:
{
  Term: 'hello_there',
  Category: 'common_phrases',
  Translations: {
    en-ca: 'Hello There!'
  }
}

and I want to update Translations Map to perhaps add another language, or just modify the en-ca portion of the object.
I've tried the following:
let params = {
    TableName: 'Translations',
    Key: {
      Term: 'hello_there',
      Category: 'common_phrases',
    },
    UpdateExpression:
      'SET Translations.#lang = list_append(Translations, :term)',
    ExpressionAttributeValues: {
      ':term': 'french version',
    },
    ExpressionAttributeNames: {
      '#lang': 'fr-ca',
    },
  }

But I get an error about the wrong operand type.
I've tried:
    UpdateExpression:
      'SET Translations.#lang = :term',
    ExpressionAttributeValues: {
      ':term': 'french version',
    },
    ExpressionAttributeNames: {
      '#lang': 'fr-ca',
    },

But this overwrites the entire contents of the Translations field. Meaning that if I already had en-ca in there, now I would only have fr-ca.
I tried this as well, but also get an operand error:
{
  UpdateExpression: 'ADD Translations :term',
  ExpressionAttributeValues: {
    ':term': { 'fr-ff': 'frenchterm' },
},

Any suggestions on how to add/update items to the Translations Map?

A: Your SET expression was close, try something like this:
    UpdateExpression:
      'SET #trans.#lang = :term',
    ExpressionAttributeValues: {
      ':term': 'french version',
    },
    ExpressionAttributeNames: {
      '#trans': 'Translations`,
      '#lang': 'fr-ca',
    },

Normally, a liquidator is appointed by the deceased in his will. In the absence of a will, the role of the liquidator will devolve as of right to the heirs. In turn, the heirs may designate a liquidator by way of majority vote. In the event of a dispute, the heirs may request that the courts appoint a liquidator.
Anyone capable of fully exercising her/his civil rights may become a liquidator.
Several family disputes may be avoided if the liquidator is selected during the estate planning process.
If several liquidators are appointed, they must act in concert and make all decisions together.
Similarly, an alternate liquidator should be named in case the original liquidator cannot or will not perform such a role. In this scenario, should there not be an alternate liquidator, the courts would be obliged to appoint one.
Whether it is by designation or by appointment, such an action must be registered at the Registre des droits personnels et réels mobiliers (hereinafter the "RDPRM") and/or the Registre foncier in order for it to be valid vis-à-vis third parties.
It is important to mention that the liquidator is personally liable for any negligent, fraudulent or incomplete acts that he may undertake while executing his functions.
Heirs may be liable for the debts of a succession by knowingly refusing or neglecting to make an inventory themselves or requesting from the courts an order forcing the liquidator to make an inventory within the prescribed delays.
Such an omission, along with other actions such as the appropriation of the deceased's property before making an inventory may be considered as a tacit acceptance of the succession and all its debts, irrespective of the succession's solvency.

I'm so proud of this tree and all that it stands for. I mean Johnny Appleseed is this guy who had an awesome dream and with just one seed…just one idea he changed the world. The more I think about it the crazier it seems. He traveled by foot all over for MILES AND MLES just planting seeds. Today I can drink apple juice. Oh and I did just that the other day. In a bagel shop I bought a Martinelli's apple juice, yes the kind that comes in a apple shaped glass. From the smile to the childhood memory to the thirst quenching on a hot spring day, I thank Johnny. Now that I realize it every single seed I spread always made a difference. The moment I realized this oh my whole world changed. Every dream is worth exploring and walking MILES AND MILES FOR no matter how crazy it seems. I say if it sounds crazy then maybe your on to something big.
I can hardly believe that my book is near completion. I'm so proud of this book.

CBC, PELOSI DENOUNCE ISRAEL'S BARRING OF OMAR AND TLAIB TO PLEASE RACIST TRUMP
Special To The ...August 16,2019
[Middle East News]
Congressional Black Caucus: "The Israeli government should immediately reverse this shortsighted decision to deny Members of Congress entry into Israel. Allies are supposed to be able to disagree without being disagreeable."

The Congressional Black Caucus, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have both denounced Israel's decision to deny Rep. Ilhan Omar and Rep. Rashida Tlaib entry into Israel for a visit.
Yesterday, the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) released the following statement condemning the Israeli government's decision to deny entry into Israel to Representatives Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib.
"The Israeli government should immediately reverse this shortsighted decision to deny Members of Congress entry into Israel. Allies are supposed to be able to disagree without being disagreeable," said Congresswoman Karen Bass, Chair of the CBC. "This decision does nothing to further constructive dialogue between the United States and Israel, and in fact, makes it harder to find common ground on issues in our mutual interests. Even more shameful, is the fact that the President of the United States has encouraged these actions which further demonstrates his inability to responsibly conduct foreign policy."
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi spoke out against Israel's decision saying:
"As one who loves Israel, I am deeply saddened by the news that Israel has decided to prevent Members of Congress from entering the country.
"Last month, Israeli Ambassador Dermer stated that, 'Out of respect for the U.S. Congress and the great alliance between Israel and America, we would not deny entry to any Member of Congress into Israel.' This is a sad reversal and is deeply disappointing. I pray that the Government of Israel will reverse that denial.
"Israel's denial of entry to Congresswomen Tlaib and Omar is a sign of weakness, and beneath the dignity of the great State of Israel. The President's statements about the Congresswomen are a sign of ignorance and disrespect, and beneath the dignity of the Office of the President."
This morning, the State of Israel said they would allow Rep. Tlaib to enter Israel (with severe restrictions) to see her 90-year-old Palestinian grandmother. Tlaib refused and explained her thinking in a series of tweets saying, "When I won, it gave the Palestinian people hope that someone will finally speak the truth about the inhumane conditions.
"I can't allow the State of Israel to take away that light by humiliating me & use my love for my sity to bow down to their oppressive & racist policies. Silencing me & treating me like a criminal is not what she wants for me. It would kill a piece of me. I have decided that visiting my grandmother under these oppressive conditions stands against everything I believe in--fighting against racism, oppression & injustice.
Tlaib's grandmother told the Washington Post, "I am proud of her. Who wouldn't be proud of a granddaughter like that? I love her and am so proud of her."

Deal to keep Hockey Night theme song falls through
Negotiations to keep the Hockey Night in Canada theme song have collapsed, meaning the program is now in search of another anthem.
No breakthrough in licensing agreement talks between CBC, composer
CBC Sports · Posted: Jun 06, 2008 4:53 PM ET | Last Updated: June 7, 2008
Negotiations to keep the Hockey Night in Canada theme song have collapsed, meaning the CBC program is now in search of another anthem.
Copyright Music & Visuals, the Toronto agency representing the song's composer, Dolores Claman, said on Friday that the deal had fallen through.
That news came as a surprise to the CBC, said Scott Moore, executive director of CBC Sports.
"We're disappointed, as many Canadians are," Moore said, adding he found out about the deal falling through from CBC News.
"We have no real idea why the deal fell apart," he said. "We're not sure why because the other side hasn't communicated with us.
"You have to ask the other side what happened."
Copyright Music & Visuals said it had offered the public broadcaster a chance to renew its licence to use Claman's song — a staple on HNIC since 1968 — on terms that were "virtually identical to those that have existed for the past decade."
Previously, the CBC paid about $500 for each game broadcast by Hockey Night in Canada, the agency said.
After the first two years of a new agreement, the rates would rise about 15 per cent, an increase Copyright Music & Visuals president John Ciccone called an industry standard.
Moore would not say what the price was, nor would he comment on what the agency claimed it to be.
"We offered to continue paying the richest licence fee in Canadian television, which was the price they asked for," said Moore. "We also offered to buy it outright for a high six-figure sum."
A call made to Ciccone by CBCSports.ca was not returned Friday.
Claman, who has written about 2,000 jingles over her career, is also credited with the Ontario theme A Place to Stand, which she co-wrote with her husband, Richard Morris, in 1967.
Contest for new theme in works
Moore said Friday the two sides had agreed upon a price, but added an "unfortunate set of circumstances," including an outstanding lawsuit, hovered over negotiations.
A lawsuit filed against the CBC in late 2004 by the composer alleges that the broadcaster was overusing the Hockey Night in Canada theme and has not been settled. Copyright Music & Visuals said the litigation hasn't interfered with the CBC's use of music, nor was settlement of the suit a condition for the proposed new licensing agreement.
"We really can't do business with a lawsuit hanging over our heads," Moore said. "We feel that we've done everything we possibly can."
CBC Sports will now move on and launch a new national contest in conjunction with Nettwerk Music Group to find a new theme song, he said. Canadians will be invited to write and record an original song for Hockey Night in Canada, with fans and a jury of experts choosing the best new composition.
The winner will receive $100,000 and proceeds from any royalties will go to minor hockey across the country. More details on the contest will be revealed in the next week.
"We expect a lot of terrific music, and we expect that the new theme for Hockey Night in Canada will be as iconic as the last two themes have been," Moore said.
Earlier on Friday, Liberal heritage critic Denis Coderre told reporters in Ottawa that Conservative Heritage Minister Josée Verner must defend one of Canada's most famous musical traditions and do everything possible to ensure the CBC continues to broadcast the theme.
"The Hockey Night in Canada theme is a part of Canada's culture that goes beyond sport," Coderre said. "If the minister wants to show that she cares about Canadian heritage, this is her chance."

Our Favorite Female Designers
As stylists, we're often asked who our most beloved designers are and which brands inspire our style choices on a daily basis. We typically don't like to play favorites, but these designers are just so good, we couldn't resist placing the spotlight on them. The common thread among them all? They're all women. And these trailblazers are shaking things up and influencing the world of fashion in a big way. Keep scrolling for a serious dose of girl power.
Veronica Miele Beard and Veronica Swanson Beard
Double the fun
This eponymous brand is named after its founders, Veronica Miele Beard and Veronica Swanson Beard. These two sisters-in-law share the same first and last name, along with their vision to help women feel chic.
Why we love VB
The brand does a fantastic job of striking a balance between cool and classic pieces. Each item is thoughtfully designed as a response to chic everyday dressing.
"We find that our customer wants a luxury experience at an advanced contemporary price point, whether she's a millennial investing in a special occasion dress, a busy executive looking for a modern tailored suit, or a mom-on-the-go looking for a perfect pair of jeans," Swanson Beard says. "These are the women we're constantly thinking about."
A serendipitous moment
Rebecca became an overnight sensation when an "I Love New York" T-shirt she designed appeared on The Tonight Show. Today, the brand offers a wide range of apparel, and is most known for its handbags.
Industry recognition
In 2011, this powerhouse designer was awarded with the well-deserved "Breakthrough Designer Award" from the Accessories Council.
Dedicated to bringing women together, Rebecca established the Female Founder Collective. This network of women-led businesses invests in women's financial power by enabling and empowering other female-owned businesses.
An industry pioneer
Through a bold and creative approach to fashion, the DVF label has come to symbolize power and independence for a generation of women since its inception in 1972.
Why we can't get enough
DVF is renowned for its iconic wrap dresses, stand-out signature prints, and flattering feminine silhouettes. And we're not the brand's only fans—just two years after creating the wrap dress in 1974, more than 5 million dresses had already been sold.
A champion for femininity
"I design for the woman who loves being a woman," Diane Von Furstenberg has famously said. This very motto is what helped her get named as one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People.
Brains of the operation
In 2002, Stacey Bendet founded the brand as a way to help women express their personal style. And what started as a personal quest to create the perfect pair of pants has since evolved into a lifestyle collection that includes everything from gowns to eyewear.
A unique aesthetic
When it comes to a fresh and out-of-the-box approach to fashion, this is our go-to label. The brand does a fantastic job of creating pieces that are whimsical and flirty, while still feeling sexy and sophisticated.
As seen in Hollywood
Because of its truly unique approach to fashion, Alice + Olivia is a favorite among the stars. Celebrity fans include Gwyneth Paltrow, Gigi Hadid, Amal Clooney, Jessica Alba, and Kourtney Kardashian.
Alice + Olivia blouse
Paige Adams-Geller
Denim obsessed
"I love denim! I wear it everyday and it's truly the foundation of everyone's wardrobe," says Paige Adams-Geller, brand founder. "I also felt there was a void in the marketplace at that time. The market was saturated by all male designers and owners. I saw my opportunity to showcase denim from a fresh female perspective."
Why we love the label
Aside from being a reliable source for on-trend style, its philanthropic efforts and unique brand philosophy keep us coming back for more. Plus, Paige is the only female founder in the denim industry today. Girl power, anyone?
Career advice from Paige
"Problems come along every day, so it's best not to dwell on them. If one door closes, another one usually opens. You can't be afraid to ask for help, because you can't do this alone."
Destined for fashion
After growing tired of not being able to find clothes she liked, a young Isabel Marant began making her own clothes out of old garments and fabrics. It wasn't long before her friends started asking her to create pieces for them as well.
Coveted by celebs
Isabel Marant's pieces are characterized by an impossibly chic, casual-cool vibe. You may have seen their designs on celebrities like Kate Moss, Sienna Miller, Kate Bosworth, Rachel Weisz, and Alexa Chung.
Worldwide sensation
Since being launched in 1989, the company has 10 shops in major cities including Paris, New York, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Seoul, Los Angeles, Beijing, Madrid, Beirut, and London. Additionally, you can find their designs in retailers located in more than 35 countries.
Isabel Marant sweater
Arielle Charnas
Something Navy
Style sensation
Arielle Charnas made the transition from fashion blogger to mega influencer, with the launch of her fashion line in collaboration with Nordstrom. With reported earnings of $1 million in just a single day, Arielle shows us that no dream is ever too big.
Capsule must-haves
Boasting a design aesthetic best summed up as "elevated basics," we're obsessed with these pieces because they give our everyday essentials a modern spin with fresh prints and vibrant colors.
More than just great clothes, Something Navy also offers a great range of jewelry. We're especially drawn to the minimal designs that are bold in style because each piece really amplifies an outfit without being too distracting.
Business partners for almost 20 years, Emily Current and Meritt Elliott have had an incredible journey as entrepreneurs, brand builders, stylists, and designers.
All in the name
Also known as the designers' most proud achievement to date, The Great. is a collection of classic California cool pieces that were inspired by their experience as stylists. We love the cool-girl edge that each piece boasts.
There's nothing we admire more than women uplifting other women. And these ladies are known for supporting female friendships and creative fearlessness with a kind and optimistic approach to both life and design.
The Great. top and boot
All-American goodness
Since launching in 2004, the Tory Burch collection offers a full range of clothing, shoes, handbags, accessories, watches, home, and beauty. There's something for everyone!
In addition to being an entrepreneur, fashion designer, and chief creative officer of her own brand, Tory Burch was listed as the 73rd most powerful woman in the world by Forbes in 2015.
After finding success with her own company, the designer launched the Tory Burch Foundation to give back and support women entrepreneurs.
Signature pieces
As a British luxury jewelry brand, Monica Vinader makes it a point to celebrate individuality. The namesake label is best known for its iconic friendship bracelets, vibrant gemstones, and diamond pieces.
Diverse following
The unique designs have caught the eyes and hearts of Emma Watson, Olivia Palermo, and even the Duchess of Cambridge.
In its debut year, Monica Vinader won Brand of the Year at the UK Jewelry Awards.
We can't wait to see what collections these innovative designers come out with next. One thing's for sure: These women will continue to be a huge inspiration for us (and our closets).

On Friday, February 23 Sonoma County conducted its annual Point in Time Homeless Count for both adult and youth populations currently experiencing homelessness in our community. The adult count took place during the early morning (6am-10am) and the youth count occurred in the late afternoon (3pm-7pm).
Every two years, communities across the country conduct comprehensive counts of the local population experiencing homelessness. The Count is required by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and helps provide a "snapshot" of what homelessness looks like in our communities across the country, and informs program, policy, and funding decision. The Count has two primary components: a point in time count of unsheltered homeless individuals and families (those sleeping outdoors, on the street, in parks, or vehicles, etc.) and a point in time count of homeless individuals and families residing in temporary shelter, such as emergency shelters and transitional housing. The Point in Time Count is the only source of nationwide data on sheltered and unsheltered homelessness.
In an effort to better track these data points, Sonoma County opted to conduct an annual unsheltered count beginning in 2015. For the last decade, Social Advocates for Youth has spearheaded Sonoma County's specialized count of unaccompanied children and transition age-youth under the age of 25 years. Trained youth guides who currently or recently experienced homelessness partner with SAY staff and community volunteers to conduct the youth point in time count in specific areas where homeless youth are known to congregate.
Katrina Thurman, SAY CEO; Ashley Fehrmann, SAY Chief Development Officer; and Mark Soiland, President & CEO of Soiland Company celebrate Soiland Company's amazing donation of two outreach vans.
Many of the youth guides are currently enrolled in an SAY program and some we have engaged through our Street Outreach services. Every week, the SAY Street Outreach team goes out into our community and engaging with young people currently experiencing homelessness and helps connect them with services. This year-round outreach effort helps inform our annual point in time count and ensures we are reaching young people when and where they need us most. Last year, SAY received an invaluable donation of two vans from local material producer, Soiland Company These vans are instrumental in our outreach efforts and have allowed us to reach young people more frequently throughout Sonoma County.
Last year, Sonoma County reported 532 homeless young people under the age of 25; 100% of youth under 18 and 91% of youth ages 18-25 were unsheltered. Final results of the 2018 count are expected in June.
Sonoma County worked in conjunction with Applied Survey Research (ASR) to conduct the 2018 Sonoma Homeless Point-in-Time Count and Survey. ASR has worked with Sonoma County on their Point-in-Time Counts since 2009, and is a social research firm with extensive experience in homeless enumeration and needs assessment.
