It is said that Tuscany's Maremma region is the birthplace of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of beauty. In fact, legend has it that when Aphrodite rose from the waves of the Tyrrhenian Sea for an ardent happenstance with Eros, the god of love, her necklace shattered, sending seven pearls plunging into the deep blue. Instead of sinking to the ocean floor, however, they bloomed, forming the seven islands of the Tuscan Archipelago: Gorgosa, Capraia, Elba, Pianosa, Giglio, Giannutri, and perhaps the most famous of all, Montecristo.
It is a mythological tale Filippo Ricci tells aboard the SaraStar, an Italian superyacht floating along the majestic aquamarine waves just off the coast of Punta Ala, a lavish Tuscan resort town. An intimate group has gathered from far and wide to be amongst the first to witness a glimpse of Stefano Ricci's Spring/Summer 2019 collection, titled Man and the Sea.
"We're here to celebrate and tell the story about the Stefano Ricci man," says Filippo, the brand's creative director and son of founder Stefano. "He is running a path, a journey, an adventure, celebrating the great Italian beauty." From Vancouver (where there is a store on Georgia Street) to Shanghai, the Stefano Ricci gentleman naturally fuses the worlds of contemporary clothing and classical tailoring, walking a line of knowledge that conveys quintessential Italian style.
As guests sip espresso, unsure of the "surprise activity" to a "secret location" that is about to be revealed, three stoic, handsome, and hyper-masculine models glide around the upper deck of the yacht, which wows those aboard with its custom tailored silk textiles from the Antico Setificio Fiorentino mill and extravagant Stefano Ricci homewares. Each model dons a look from the new collection; one of them sports a double-breasted jacket made of exclusive Stefano Ricci cashmere and silk paired with shorts crafted from a beautiful blend of wool, silk, cashmere, and linen. His outfit is perfected with a 100 per cent straw handmade Panama hat and suede deerskin leather espadrilles. It is an ensemble that speaks to the timeless pleasure of yachting, perfect on a warm day under the Tuscan sun.
Inspired by French poet Charles Baudelaire's poem of the same name, the Man and the Sea collection tells the story of the Stefano Ricci customer's love of adventure. And what better way to celebrate that narrative than to travel to the very place where the campaign lookbook was shot: the highly exclusive Montecristo Island.
Location has always been important to the Stefano Ricci brand. Former collections have been inspired by the likes of the legendary Mugello Circuit in Scarperia (the Ricci family has a passion for vintage cars) and the undying beauty of Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the south of the country. Another was presented in the Sala Bianca room within the historic Florence museum Palazzo Pitti (Andrea Bocelli walked in that show with his sons). The objective is to not only create beauty wherever the Stefano Ricci man goes, but to treat the conservation and protection of each place with the utmost respect. "They ask me, 'What is the real treasure of Montecristo?'" Filippo says just before the afternoon cruise embarks. "They say the story of The Count of Monte Cristo, but it's really the beauty uncontaminated of that island." Of course, it is hard not to connect the island to the famed Alexandre Dumas novel in which protagonist Edmond Dantès finds treasure that leads him on a path of revenge and redemption (and after which this very magazine takes its name)—but for those lucky enough to see it, Montecristo has so much more to offer.
Four elements characterize the collection's journey of exploration and discovery: Balbo's tower, Aphrodite's myth, Atlantic's legend, and Montecristo's treasure. Aboard the SaraStar, it is easy to recognize how Aphrodite's story inspired the colour palette of these suits, trousers, and polos, from the deep blacks of the Mediterranean's dark abyss to the soft reds and yellows of the beautiful Tuscan sunsets.
The yacht follows the same route as the Atlantic, the 1903 schooner that appears in the Stefano Ricci campaign in which the man of the sea ventures on towards Montecristo, protected by a matte technical silk blouson and a formal pinstripe suit in ultrafine weaves of wool and cashmere. The 40 nautical miles to the island are made easy with a glass of wine in hand, and after two hours of sailing, it is there in the distance: Montecristo. In The Count, Dantès describes the island bathed in mystery as "fantastic and lonely," and perhaps that is the most accurate account; it is mountainous, bare. Yet it is evident how this place, filled with the folklore of saints, dragons, and pirates, had the ability to seduce even Stefano himself.
The 10.4-kilometre-squared island is an almost inaccessible nature reserve, a territory where wild goats run the show. This five-million-year-old landmass was classified as a Biogenetic Natural Reserve by the European Council in 1988 and is not open to tourists; onboard the SaraStar, one Stefano Ricci model (wearing a made-to-measure two-button suit equipped with a pocket square) explains that access to the island is limited to 1,000 visitors per year with a current waitlist of thousands. How lucky for him to have modelled that very suit upon its rocks.
Only a brand like Stefano Ricci, dedicated to safeguarding Italy's beauty, could charm its way onto one of the world's most protected islands. Although this afternoon's guests are not amongst the lucky approved visitors to set foot on the island, cruising within the restricted 4.8-kilometre radius that ships are typically forbidden from entering is special in itself.
A warm bowl of creamy rigatoni with spicy sauce and parmigiana awaits inside the yacht as rain starts to fall atop Montecristo. It is a fitting way to see the island: drenched in gloom against the harsh sea. It demonstrates Montecristo's prowess, its remoteness, and its status as the finish line for the ultimate adventure—one, of course, that the Stefano Ricci man has conquered.

The wonder of women in media
Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman in "Wonder Woman." (Clay Enos/Warner Bros.)
Filed under Opinions
We need more males in our world who genuinely believe in gender equality. Feminism is not about woman trying to dominate men, it's gender equality among both sexes. Sometimes when people are uneducated about the topic of feminism they stereotype feminists as aggressive man-haters. Being on a college campus, we have students from all over the country. Where we were raised has a lot to do with our opinions on society, whether we want to believe it or not. This is why people can sometimes get confused that the opinions in their surrounding area are not the norm for the rest of society.
In 2017, I truly believe that our media is growing by providing women with more dominant roles. However, before I go on about media projects that empower woman, it's important to talk about how we got here.
The many people in denial about the existence of misogynists in today's society is one of the many reasons women have used their voices this year to speak up. Hilary Clinton inspired women to use their voice in our most recent election. She is a huge part of why women joined together and created a powerful community, all over the country. This generation wants people to know, through our words and actions, that misogynists need to watch out.
Just recently, there was the #MeToo Movement, which an article in the Washington post defined as "a movement against what many believe is a misogynistic culture that enables sexual misconduct to go unchecked." In my opinion, this was huge deal for women, whether they have been sexually harassed or not. In the daily life of a women, we are always aware of our surroundings because we live in fear of men who will abuse us. So yes, this did make a change. It changed these women's lives by giving them the strength they needed to come out.
In this day in age, social media is our main source of news, which is why it played a huge role in spreading gender equality. Millennials are the largest living generation since the Baby Boomers; we are also known to be the ones looking at screens the most. This is why the #MeToo movement and the word of the Women's March spread so quickly. It's also why there were "at least 261 marches abroad, with attendance totaling between 266,532 and 357,071 people", according to a different article in the Washington Post. Awareness has reached a whole other level because of the easy access to information; media has provided millennials with more diverse and liberal outlooks on society.
There have been claims that powerful women are nearly absent in fiction, but this year we had various films portray powerful woman without oversexualizing them. One of the most popular films was "Wonder Woman", and Gal Gadot has taken her role as a heroine into her real life. Ever since director Brett Ratner was accused of sexual harassment, she refused to continue her role as Wonder Woman if Ratner was still involved. A lot of the times in the media industry, situations like this have been forgiven, but it's the people who have the power that are able to really make the change. Since the audience truly loved Gal Gadot, she was able to use her power and remove Ratner from the production.
I wouldn't say our media is doing a terrible job of showing gender equality. A flaw about our internet is that search engines are different for each person. The internet shows what the audience wants to see. This is why a lot of people were shocked during the election. People like myself were in shock over the results because I didn't associate myself with Republicans on the internet and in real life. We have to give credit for all the work we have put in this past year. I'm not saying that we are perfect, but we have grown and will continue to do so.

Steve Matthews and Craig Torres of Bloomberg report, Bullard Says Fed Should Consider Delay in Ending QE:
The Federal Reserve should consider delaying the end of its bond-purchase program to halt a decline in inflation expectations, said St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank President James Bullard.
Bullard, who helped lay the intellectual groundwork for the Fed's quantitative easing program, said U.S. economic fundamentals remain strong, and he blamed recent financial-market turmoil on downgrades in the outlook for Europe.
"Inflation expectations are declining in the U.S.," he said in an interview today with Bloomberg News in Washington. "That's an important consideration for a central bank. And for that reason I think that a logical policy response at this juncture may be to delay the end of the QE."
Bullard is the first Fed official to publicly suggest the central bank should extend its asset-purchase program when policy makers meet later this month. U.S. stocks erased losses and Treasury yields rose on expectations the Fed will take action to insulate the U.S. from global economic weakness.
"We are watching and we're ready and we are willing to do things to defend our inflation target," Bullard said.
Fed officials are scheduled to next gather on Oct. 28-29 and have said they expect to end asset purchases after that meeting. The program has already been wound down to combined monthly purchases of $15 billion of Treasuries and mortgage backed securities, from $85 billion in December 2012.
Committee Intentions
"Fifteen billion by itself is not that consequential," Bullard said. "But what is consequential is committee intentions on future QE, and we have certainly seen through the taper tantrum how important those can be."
He was referring to an episode last year when Treasury yields shot up after then-Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said the Fed would start slowing bond-buying sooner than expected.
Bullard said he continues to forecast the first Fed interest-rate increase at the end of the first quarter, based on the expectation that the current global market turmoil won't affect U.S. prospects. Economic growth could be bolstered by declines in oil prices and long-term interest rates, he said.
A pause in tapering would protect against "downside risk" and bolster inflation expectations, he said. "We could react with more QE if we wanted to."
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index (SPX) rose 0.4 percent to 1,870.25 at 1:37 p.m. in New York after dropping as much as 1.5 percent. U.S. 10-year Treasury yields rose two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 2.16 percent.
Bullard Paper
Bullard, who doesn't vote on policy this year, has been seen as a bellwether because his views have sometimes foreshadowed policy changes. He published a paper in 2010 entitled "Seven Faces of the Peril," which called on the central bank to avert deflation by purchasing Treasury notes. That was followed by a second round of bond buying.
"Bullard is a very practical voice at the Fed, and changes in his views often reflect the swing in the balance of risks in the economy," said Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo Securities LLC in Charlotte, North Carolina.
"The Fed is highly attentive to the outlook for the economy, and the outlook for the global economy has deteriorated," Vitner said. "Inflation looks like it has decelerated and may decelerate further."
Stocks, Oil
The 10-year Treasury yield fell below 2 percent yesterday for the first time since June 2013 as weaker-than-forecast economic data added to concerns that economic growth is slowing. That worry has helped push down stocks, oil prices, and measures of inflation expectations, while increasing the value of the U.S. dollar relative to trading partners.
The Fed aims for 2 percent inflation, as measured by the personal consumption expenditures price index, which was 1.5 percent in August and hasn't exceeded 2 percent since March 2012. Expectations of future inflation, which are important because they can affect spending by businesses and households, have dipped in recent months alongside a decline in oil prices.
A Bloomberg measure of market forecasts for average inflation over the next five years was 1.49 percent at 1:41 p.m. in New York, compared with 2.1 percent in June.
The Fed has said its policies are dependent on evolving economic data as it seeks to steer the economy to full employment and stable prices.
"I am saying today that maybe we should invoke the data dependent clause on the tapering," Bullard, 53, said. "I think that is our simplest step that we can take in this circumstance."
On the other hand, he said U.S. economic fundamentals remain strong, and he hasn't downgraded his forecast for growth of 3 percent or more in the second half of 2014 and 2015.
"The hard data on the U.S. is good," he said. "The last jobs report was quite strong." The jobless rate fell to 5.9 percent in September, and payrolls expanded by 248,000.
This is the most important event during this wild and volatile week. Why? Because the Fed is telling market participants it is very worried about Europe's deflation demons spreading to the United States and elsewhere and it stands ready to act fast if deflation creeps into inflation expectations.
The most important thing Bullard said yesterday during this Bloomberg interview was this: "We could react with more QE if we wanted to."
Now think about it. You've got Mario Draghi who is constantly being warned by German leaders not to engage in massive quantitative easing, effectively limiting the European Central Bank's response to fight deflation in the eurozone.
What Draghi is proposing is some form of asset purchases but these measures are considered mostly cosmetic which is why shares in Europe plunged earlier this week before rebounding once markets caught wind that the Fed is standing ready to move.
And European bank shares led the late week rally after selling off strongly earlier this week. Why? Because if the Fed delays its tapering, or engages in more QE, it will basically aid them into shoring up their weak balance sheets. They can basically buy U.S. bonds, lock in the spread and improve their liquidity.
The Fed is basically telling Europe's big banks: "Don't worry about Angela Merkel, Wolfgang Schäuble, and the lack of major QE from the ECB. If they don't act, we will act in a forceful manner allowing you to use our balance sheet to shore up yours."
And that ladies and gentlemen is huge news for markets because it sends a strong message to short sellers salivating at the prospect of a eurozone collapse that the Fed isn't about to stand by and let it happen. Why? Because a eurozone collapse will unleash those deflation demons and ensure the U.S. and rest of the world are heading for a protracted period of debt deflation.
Even the threat of more QE from the Fed is enough to send shivers down short sellers' spines which is why you will likely see risk assets rallying during the second half of October and into year-end. Pay attention here to the ten-year Treasury yield (^TNX), the euro/USD exchange rate, crude oil prices, and small cap stocks (IWM) which have led the rally out of the selloff earlier this week.
As far as stocks, I've said it before, the real risk in the stock market is a melt-up, not a meltdown. We're going to get a massive liquidity rally unlike anything you've ever seen, then you'll need to worry about the massive hangover and protracted debt deflation, which remains my ultimate endgame.
In this environment, you have to pick your spots carefully or risk getting slaughtered in the stock market. I would steer clear of energy (XLE) and materials (XLB) which are prone for more weakness ahead. They're bouncing back after suffering steep losses but use any relief rally to shed your positions in these sectors.
I continue to favor small caps (IWM), technology (QQQ) and biotech shares (IBB), including smaller biotechs (XBI) that have sold off lately. These are extremely volatile and risky but there is a great secular story here that will play out for many years to come. Keep an eye on companies like Idera Pharmaceuticals (IDRA), Biocryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX), Progenics Pharmaceuticals (PGNX), Synergy Pharmaceuticals (SGYP), Threshold Pharmaceuticals (THLD), TG Therapeutics (TGTX), XOMA Corp (XOMA). I would take advantage of the latest selloff to add to some of these biotechs. I also like Twitter (TWTR) and see a bright future for this social media stock.
What's the biggest risk to my scenario? A significant crisis of confidence if the Fed actually does engage in more quantitative easing and market participants think it's way behind the deflation curve. That's the scenario that keeps James Bullard and Janet Yellen awake at night but for now, I wouldn't worry about any deep crisis of confidence.
Below, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard talks about monetary policy, U.S. economic fundamentals and the global economy. Bullard, speaks with Michael McKee on Bloomberg Television's "Market Makers." Take the time to listen to this interview, it's by far the most important market event of the week.

GDPR hasn't sparked rise in spam - so far
Report reveals spam is still a problem, although number of junk emails is down
The arrival of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has not caused spam to increase, despite experts predicting otherwise following the introduction of the EU law, research by Recorded Future has revealed.
Before the new data regulations were introduced at the end of May, privacy commentators predicted that spam may rise as security researchers wouldn't be able to use WHOIS information they had previously turned to in order to find, name and shame culprits.
Although the number of spam emails sent out has reduced since GDPR was introduced, according to email tracking service Cisco Talos, spam accounted for 85.14% of all emails - a slight decrease compared to the beginning of May when 85.28% of all emails were flagged as spam.
Spammers often register lots of domains in order to send their unwanted emails to lots of recipients, but Recorded Future added that the number of domain registrations have also fallen, suggesting those wanting the bend the rules are either waiting for the GDPR dust to settle or are seeking other ways to send unsolicited communications.
Another hypothesis is that spammers are instead using Top Level Domain (TLD) registrations to run their campaigns. But these seem to have dropped too, with the most commonly abused TLDs dropping as a total percentage of all registered domain names. Although TLDs increased as a percentage of total new domain registrations in the period after GDPR, these don't seem to have been put to work as spam masks just yet.

The Fallacy of Objective Journalism on the Baystate Nurses' Strike
theshoestringbeta	Uncategorized	 December 9, 2017 December 9, 2017 7 Minutes
Pleasing everyone and revealing nothing
ROJAS OLIVA
At Greenfield's Baystate Franklin Medical Center (BFMC), nurses' health care premiums had shot up 26 percent in the past year. Baystate nurses were working thousands of shifts longer than 12 hours, despite studies detailing how shifts this long makes them more prone to errors on the job. Furthermore, data shows that nursing has one of the highest rates of occupational injury and illness in any profession.
In the face of clearly overworked employees, management repeatedly failed to bargain in good faith; bargaining sessions would often drag on for 12 hours or more, while nurses worked without a contract for months. So they went on strike. 200 nurses affiliated with the Massachusetts Nurses Association walked out on June 26th.
After the strike was announced, management promptly declared it "illegal" without a ruling from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)—an independent federal agency with a board appointed by the President of the United States tasked with investigating claims of unfair labor practices—making their proclamation the judicial equivalent of me declaring the letter 's' illegal: meaningless and absurd. Tellingly, management made the disturbing decision to lock the nurses out of the hospital for three days—an action with no precedent for MNA nurses.
"The Massachusetts Nurses Association (MNA) has been around since 1903, doing union negotiations since the mid '60's and there's never been a bargaining unit that's been locked out," Sr. Chair of the BFMC bargaining unit, MNA state board member and registered nurse Donna Stern told me on the picket line.
A media that fails to investigate beyond official narratives leaves our communities vulnerable to unchecked exploitations, violence and oppressions of all types. It's writing that ruffles no feathers, meant to please everyone and reveal nothing.
Numerous local news outlets promulgated management's line about the strike being "illegal," and their coverage reveals a peculiar monopoly Baystate has on the local media narrative that emerged from the strike. Moments after the nurses themselves found out about the lockout, The Recorder published an article under the headline: "Hospital to lock out nurses for 3 days for planned 'illegal strike.'" The reason the strike was illegal? The article let hospital president Cindy Russo explain: "We were speaking with our legal [advisers] around that and once we determined this was the action that we could take, that's when we took the action."
What could this sentence possibly mean and under what possible logic was it printed? In the article, Stern lays out Baystate's history of calling strikes illegal only to have their complaints struck down by the NLRB, yet no attempt to reconcile these two views or investigate which is more accurate follows. Clearly this reporter simply got their two quotes that, in theory, represented both sides, and called it day without resolving contradictions or obtaining more information necessary to explain the dispute. The bizarre nature of the article continues when the article references how The Recorder obtained the news of the lockout via a press release from Baystate while the nurses were still in negotiations.
"Collectively we're in shock that they'll do a press release like that right in the middle of when we're trying to reach a settlement," Stern is quoted as saying in the article. "That's disturbing to us."
It's disturbing to the nurses because it's a clear indication of Baystate's ability to set the tone for how the public will perceive the strike before it even happens, to use public disapproval as a weapon in negotiations, a fact The Recorder doesn't acknowledge. Bad press for the nurses does not end with The Recorder.

—The MNA BFMC Committee
The day before the strike, Channel 22 News ran the headline: "Baystate to lock-out unionized nurses, calls nurses' strike 'illegal.'" In this case, no alternate view regarding legality is presented.
This same one-sided narrative applies for the reasoning behind the lockout. The hospital claims the lockout was necessary as they could only contract traveling nurses for three days. However, the nurses understood the lockout as a retaliatory measure both given the wider trend of hospital management locking out nurses on strike this year and that Baystate often hires travelers for limited periods. Yet, most publications simply ran claims that the lockout was necessary as the hospital could only hire travelers for periods of three days, or again presented both views with no attempt to reconcile them, leaving everything floating in authoritative newsworthy "objectivity," which, in this case was, actually, subjective.
Channel 22 News almost got it right when they allowed management to explain the retaliatory nature of the lockout—"the hospital says the strike is illegal and that's why they are locking the nurses out for an additional 48 hours"—but still managed to let them slip in an unquestioned justification of illegality.
That particular article ends with this quote from a Baystate press release: "We presented the MNA with a comprehensive proposal and were prepared to negotiate as long as it would take to come to terms. It is so disturbing that the MNA's bargaining committee ended negotiations, unwilling to continue discussions today and unwilling to agree to the next bargaining date."
This is coming from a company churning out press releases about how they're going to lockout their nurses…while still in negotiations.
The absurdity continues in another article from Western Mass News: "'Staffing is [the nurse's] concern. From our numbers and data, that is an unfounded concern,' said Cindy Russo, president and chief administrative officer at Baystate Franklin."
The hospital's claim goes unchecked, turning the entire affair into a "he said, she said" with no clear conclusion for the reader.
In sum, this pattern of ambiguity applies for how the entire press dealt with the question of the legality of the strike, the necessity of the demands and the nature of the lockout. The consequence of this is that anyone entering the story with prejudices—the fairness of the free market and the greed of unions, on one hand, or the cruelty of the profit motive and the need for organization to stand up against the exploitation of workers under capitalism, on the other—will leave with those ideas unquestioned and unchallenged. It's writing that ruffles no feathers, meant to please everyone and reveal nothing.
A cursory glance at a May letter to Baystate president Cindy Russo would have revealed that the nurses back their claims with the following hard numbers:
"There were 3,980 shifts that were longer than 12 hours. 2,768 times 12 hour nurses could not leave at the end of their shifts. 1,193 times nurses who were scheduled to work 8 hours were not able to stop working for more than 12 hours! There were 433 shifts of 13 hours or more; 70 shifts of 14 hours or more, 131 shifts of 15 hours or more, 22 shifts of 16 hours or more and 5 shifts of 17 hours or more! It is illegal for an RN ever to work 16 or more hours even in a declared federal or state emergency. But your [Baystate's] data show that this happened 27 times. The longest shift was 17.5 hours."
These are not claims that Baystate ever challenged with counter data in any press release or any reporter ever questioned Baystate about. The closest to a direct comment on the nurses demands comes in a quote from a letter Russo sent the nurses, printed in the Daily Hampshire Gazette.
"This is a difficult time for all of us," Russo said in the letter. "We remain committed to working in good faith with the MNA to reach a new contract for our nurses. We also recognize the need to pull together once we pass this challenge so we can work together to care for our patients."
This call for prioritizing patient care from a boss purposely running a hospital with nurses working brutal shifts and who arbitrarily labels actions meant to improve these conditions 'illegal' is printed without a hint of irony.
We need bold journalists willing to question narratives of complacency, willing to call racists racists, to call exploitation exploitation—or at the very least who will attempt to find out what's what.
Then there are the omissions. The Valley Advocate never ran a story on the strike. Although the paper's "about" page blusters that they're "not afraid to take risks, to pick fights" because "this is not your grandmother's newspaper," they shied away from taking on Corporate America. Instead, they used their platform to cover an eight person protest that took place three days after the strike over Baystate's use of live animals in surgical training. The story makes the daring claim that "a pig is not a person," and clearly The Advocate is convinced that only the exploitation of one deserves coverage.
Since Baystate is the largest employer in Western Massachusetts, the nature of this class-based struggle signals to all employers what the norms for labor relations are, how to deal with striking workers, and how the media will report on it.
A media that fails to investigate beyond official narratives leaves our communities vulnerable to unchecked exploitations, violence and oppressions of all types. Whether the story involves strikes, police brutality, natural disasters, or violence at neo-Nazi rallies, we cannot allow this to be an age of equivocation, centrality or unquestioned narratives.
The case of media coverage of the Baystate nurses strike calls into question local journalism's approach to covering labor conflicts in a neutral or objective way. If official press releases continue to go to print unquestioned, when the next Katrina or Flint strikes there might be no reporters searching for the truth. It is not a time to worry about political polarization and rush to the center to protect the civility of democracy. We need bold journalists willing to question narratives of complacency, willing to call racists racists, to call exploitation exploitation—or at the very least who will attempt to find out what's what. And this need for stronger local journalism in the face of escalating climate disasters, white supremacy, inequality and labor exploitation reflects a wider need for stronger local communities. This is a lesson the nurses can teach all of us.
