Spider-Man: No Way Home – 10 Fates The Original Spider-Men Could Meet In The MCU
Spider-Man: No Path Home is the most anticipated Marvel movie in some time thanks to rumors that Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire will dress alongside Tom Holland as the titular web-slinger. If they have to return to their famous roles, there are many possibilities for future storylines, as no one knows what can happen next with these characters.

There are many possible options as to where their paths can lead them in subsequent films if they want to stay in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Of course, it's also possible that each version of Spider-Man has a slightly darker fate to conclude their stories. Fans are certainly hoping to see more of these iterations of Spidey.
Ben reilly
The comics featured a character called Ben Reilly, a clone of the original Peter Parker who took the name inspired by his uncle. The character posed as the Scarlet Spider, another web vigilante who often teamed up with Peter Parker.
It's possible that the iteration of Tobey Maguire's or Andrew Garfield's Peter is stuck in the main MCU timeline. With a Parker already in existence, we could take on the identity of Ben Reilly and continue to fight crime as Scarlet Spider, deviating from the origin of the comic book.
There are a lot of fan theories around the last one Spider Man film, including with regard to the costumes of the heroes. Of course, Tom Holland's Parker got used to wearing the Iron Spider costume, inspired by the Civil war era of Spider-Man superhero existence.
In the source material, there is a group of clones known as Red Team, where all three wear Iron Spider armor and function as a unit. With 3 Spideys remaining in the timeline, the trio could possibly become Team Red, opening the door for a new main iteration of Spider-Man that would involve a team of Spider-Men protecting New York from crime.
Miles Morales could very well be the next Spider-Man for the MCU, but Tom Holland's Peter Parker still seems a little young to mentor him. Fortunately, with two other web-heads on the scene, either one can actually act as Morales's partner.

Whether it's the two of them trying to work together to help Miles, or maybe a story that only involves one of them, this could be an intriguing way to continue on the tale and evolution of Tobey's characters. Maguire and Andrew Garfield, without forcing stories fans have seen in movies like Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse.
Return to their universes
There is a very simple solution at the end of the multiversal journey for what to do with these multiple Spider-Men. The answer is that they go back to their own time flows if they still exist. There are several things to solve for each character in Spider-Man, especially the iteration of Andrew Garfield.
This brings the status quo back to normal, but also opens up the idea that they might someday return, or at the very least that audiences could see more stories unfolding in their universes. It depends on whether Marvel Studios wants to keep the multiverse open to allow these actors and their beloved one to take Peter Parker, to return.
Multiversal Wipe
The multiverse is on the verge of crumbling given how out of control it seems, with several villains joining in No way home alongside interference from Sylvie, Scarlet Witch and Doctor Strange. This could result in the entire multiverse being erased and restarted.
If so, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield could be removed from the MCU altogether. On the other hand, they could be introduced as new characters, complementing their arcs nicely. If their universes were destroyed, fans wouldn't be too happy as both Spider-Men have their devoted admirers.
There is one case that would have a more tragic conclusion for these characters than many other possible outcomes: Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man could end up dying in battle. This would put a definitive end to their stories while raising the stakes for No way home. Anyone can die, even a Spider-Man.
RELATED: 10 Characters Likely NOT in Spider-Man No Way Home
Marvel is unlikely to do so given the ire of fans. Plus, it would definitely close the door to future opportunities to bring these actors and characters back for another MCU movie. On the other hand, a heroic death like that of Tony Stark would lend a greater emotional lightness to an image that already seems to be teeming with complex narratives. It would also satisfy both Garfield and Maguire, who have focused their energy on one or the other in independent films like Tic, Tic … Boom! or produce films like Brittany runs a marathon.
Live a peaceful life
With a Spider-Man already present in the MCU's main Earth timeline, and the potential for these two alternate Peter Parkers to be stuck in an alternate reality, it's possible that they can finally live peaceful, conventional lives.
They certainly deserve it given everything they've been through and retirement puts them in an interesting position for future stories. It would crown their arcs the same way Captain America did, acting as a handover from one generation of heroes to the next.
Traveling through the multiverse
The multiverse is open to exploration at this stage, and Doctor Strange will continue this journey in his own feature film. The characters of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield could be on the same path and join Strange.
This means continued appearances for these characters, as well as a resolution of any unsolved Spider-Man stories that have yet to come to a satisfactory end. The Multiverse could teach these Spider-Men a lot about themselves and the decisions they made as heroes.
Science teachers
Spider-Man's school may have to watch if Peter is to graduate, as they've embraced the weird and wonderful of the comics. The hero Silk may have already left the institution, and Spider-Man's origins are traced there as well.
Perhaps a natural place for the duo to work in the future is in school as science teachers. They could put their knowledge to good use while secretly working alongside the next generation of heroes. Maybe even characters like Ms. MarvelKamala Khan could transfer and learn from the older Spider-Men.
Mentors for new spiders
The Multiverse will be home to so many other Spider-based heroes. Ghost-Spider, Spider-Ham, Spider-Man Noir, Spider-UK, and Spider-Punk are just a few examples of vigilantes ready to take on the Green Goblin and other antagonists.
Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Spider-Men have experiences they can all learn from. So they can be multiverse mentors, teaching Spider heroes in every reality, possibly preparing them for a big Spider-verse crossover down the line.

A Voyage Round the World, In the Years MDCCXL, I, II, III, IV. - George Anson, Richard Walter
1748 - Printed for the Author, London - First Edition
A finely bound 'Royal Paper' copy of the this beautifully illustrated work which 'has long occupied a distinguished position as a masterpiece of descriptive travel' (Hill), and 'a model of what such literature should be' (Cox).
Containing forty two copper-engraved maps, charts, views, and coastal profiles, all but one folding, including views of Brazilian harbours and cities, Acapulco, Tenian, Port St. Julian, Magellan's Straits, the Bay of Manila, Saipan, Lama, Lantau, Chinese Junks, and others, and large folding maps of South America, the Philippines, and the Pacific Ocean, as well as the twelve page subscriber list, and the two page instructions to the binder.
England, at war with Spain in 1739, equipped eight ships under the command of George Anson to harass the Spaniards on the western coast of South America, for the purpose of cutting off Spanish supplies of wealth from the Pacific area. Seven ships were lost and out of 900 men, 600 perished. As usual scurvy took an appalling toll.
The Spanish fleet sent out to oppose the British ran into storms; provisions ran out and many ships were wrecked. Thus the primary object of the expedition was not attained, however Anson continued taking prizes off the Pacific coast during 1741-42, and in June 1743, near the Philippines he captured the Spanish galleon Nostra Seigniora de Cabadonga and its treasure of £400,000 sterling, which allowed Anson and the surviving members of his crew to reach England much the richer.

Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee - Dee Brown
1970 - Holt, New York - First Edition
A rather scarce first edition, first printing of the book, in first state dust jacket.
Dee Brown's powerful, eloquent, and meticulously documented account of the mistreatment and displacement suffered by native Americans at the hands of American expansionism during the nineteenth century. Brown used first-hand accounts of Dakota, Ute, Sioux, and Cheyenne tribe members, as well as autobiographies and council records, to narrate the battles, massacres, and broken treaties that left the native American people demoralised and decimated, dramatically changing the perspective of the history of the American West.
Illustrated with forty-nine black-and-white photographs.
Sick Heart River - John Buchan
1941 - Hodder Stoughton Limited, London - First Edition
A fine first edition of Buchan's last book, published posthumously.
The review in the April 1941 edition of Punch sums it up nicely:-
'"If thou hast a woe, tell it not to the weakling, tell it to thy saddle-bow, and ride singing forth." John Buchan took this Proverb of Alfred as text for his book Sick Heart River (Hodder and Stoughton, 8/3) which is as good a sermon to lift the downhearted as has ever been given in the form of a novel. When Sir Edward Leithen, a former British Attorney-General, received his notice of death from a specialist, "his memory sprawled over places he had seen" and he decided to go to Quebec to make his soul and to "die standing". One journey led to another in quest of a famous French-Canadian who, in a mood of mental sickness, had suddenly left his wife and important office in New York; and was "wanted" by American people because of his genius over international affairs. The tale that follows of two white men, their half-breed guides and some "Hare Indians", their fight with and against Nature in a lonely place is soul-stirring in more than one way and makes as brave a book as the late Governor-General of Canada ever gave us.'
The fictional Sick Heart River is in the real region of the Nahanni River in Canada's Northwest Territories. It is in some of the most rugged terrain in Canada. The area was only just being mapped when Buchan, as Governor-General Lord Tweedsmuir, passed nearby during his voyage down the Mackenzie River in the summer of 1937. Having heard much about the mysterious South Nahanni, Buchan was fascinated by it and wanted to go there, but did not make it before he died in February, 1940. [Galbraith, 2001]
The Three Voyages of Captain James Cook, with "The Death of Captain Cook" Plate - James Cook, John Hawkesworth, James King
1773 - Strahan, London - Second Edition, First Edition, Second Edition
A complete set of the best possible editions, superbly bound in full tree calf and with the additional 'Death of Captain Cook' drawn by the John Weber who witnessed the dispute and ensuing fight. Eight quarto volumes and the elephant folio volume of plates. Magnificently illustrated with two hundred and five engraved charts and plates, many of which are double page or larger.
There is no greater set of travel works, Cook was the first scientific navigator, these three voyages made great contributions to numerous fields of knowledge,, and did more to clarify the geographical knowledge of the southern hemisphere than his predecessors had done together [Hill].
The first voyage is in its second and best edition, complete with the 'Directions for placing the cuts' and the 'Chart of the Straights of Magellan', and with the new Preface containing Hawkesworth's virulent eight-page reply to Dalrymple's whining reviews of the first edition, and the whole volume revised by the voyage's astronomer William Wales.
The third voyage is in its second and best edition, with the printing by Hughs (rather than Strahan who printed the first edition) with the text itself entirely re-set. Isaac Smith presenting a set on behalf of Cook's widow in 1821 noted that 'I am desired by Mrs Cook to request your acceptance of the 4 books sent herewith being her Husbands last Voyage round the World, as a mark of her respect the letter press of the second edition being much superior to the first both in paper & letter press' (quoted by Forbes, Hawaiian National Bibliography, 85). King George III's copy of the official account, preserved in the British Library, is also an example of this second edition. This particular set with variant title pages, dated correctly, but without edition statement or vignette of Royal Society medal.
Price HK$ 430,000
Two Years Before The Mast. A Personal Narrative of Life at Sea - Richard Henry Dana Jr., Edw. W. Wilson (illustrator)
1930 - The Lakeside Press, Chicago - Limited edition of 1, 000 copies
'Dana had to withdraw from Harvard when measles weakened his eyesight; in order to regain his health; he shipped to California as a sailor in 1834. His book has become a classic account of the life and adventures of an ordinary seaman in the American merchant service, as well as the best account of the hide and tallow trade in California.' Together with its clear picture of California in the years prior to the influx of American settlers in the 1840's, Two Years Before The Mast is considered invaluable for its descriptions of San Diego, Santa Barbara and Monterey. 'Dana later became U.S. attorney for the district of Massachusetts, was nominated to the Court of Saint James, and legally represented any negroes arrested in Boston pro-bono.'
A superb, and unopened copy. Designed by Alfred deSauty with stunning illustrations and cloth binding with gilt motifs designed by Edw. A. Wilson who was also provided the thirty seven coloured plates and in text illustrations.
Stage-Coach and Tavern Days - Alice Morse Earle
1900 - The Macmillan Company, New York - First Edition
'Long ago at the end of the route,
The stage pulled up, and the folks stepped out.
They have all passed under the tavern door –
The youth and his bride and the gray three-score.'
Profusely illustrated history of the days of the American stagecoach and the taverns where weary travellers inevitably stopped at along the course of their journey. Chapters include 'Old-Time Taverns', 'Tavern Fare and Tavern Ways', 'Early stage-coaches and other vehicles', and 'The Romance of the Road.'
Works - Thomas Jefferson
1853-55 - John C. Riker, New York
'I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man'
A superb set of the first collected edition of the works of Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence and the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom, who voiced the aspirations of a new America as no other individual of his era. As public official, historian, philosopher, and plantation owner, he served his country for over five decades.

Published by the Order of the Joint Committee of Congress on the Library, from the Original Manuscripts deposited in the department of state. With explanatory notes, tables of contents, and a copious index to the whole, by the editor H. A. Washington.

As usual, its all systems go at the Drake Group each month and recently we have seen some great custom beauties rolling out of our yard.
When you're the best, go with the best. That's exactly the thinking behind Moits decision to purchase a Drake Trailers Quad Deck Widener recently.
Both Drake Trailers and Moits are industry leaders. Moits have been in operation since 1984 and have grown to become one of New South Wales' largest excavation and civil works organisations, boasting a huge fleet of equipment and over 200 people to make incredible things happen every day.
Moits Quad Deck Widener trailer sported a clean pearl white finish along its short frame for under 19m truck & trailer combination length, is backed with decades of engineering expertise and a proven performance record from Drake Trailers. The Deck Wideners fixed wheel track along with self-tracking 3 & 4 axles offers excellent manoeuvrability in any of the complex situations that are common in a Moits project.
Seeing one O'Phee Trailer being delivered is an impressive sight, but our recently delivery to P&J Harris and Sons is something else entirely.
No less than six tomato-red O'Phee Drop Decks were delivered to P&J Harris and Sons at the same time recently. We imagine that the image of a half dozen trailers barrelling down the highway towards Rowena turned many heads along the way. Arriving home in preparation for the Cotton Harvest season.
Carrying the others was a great way to prove the versatility and load bearing capacity of the Drop Decks.
P&J Harris and Sons have been in operation since 1939, and we know this equipment will serve them well into the future.
As these recent deliveries show, there's no delivery too large or small for The Drake Group. Contact us today to find out more about our extensive range of heavy haulage trailers.

Beatrice Mandelman American, 1912-1998
Beatrice Mandelman
Spring, c. 1740s
Signed: Mandelman lower right
Celebration Series, 1976
Signed: Mandelman lower right, marked with title and date (verso)
Mandelman's life was firmly grounded in art with her first receiving training at age 12 at the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Art. She clearly was influenced by Louis Lozowick's return from Russia where he visited with her parents and gave news of the Constructivist movement in art there. Much of the aesthetic in the Taos Modern group of which she was a part, has roots in the Constructivist movement.
Mandelman found great freedom in Taos and the ability to enjoy the history and culture of that area and to be able to pursue being an artist. Her husband was artist Louis Ribak and at the end of their lives much of their art and hard work toward the artist community in Taos is evident in the Harwood Museum in Taos and through the Mandelman-Ribak Foundation.
Please notify me when works by Beatrice Mandelman become available.

Drugs play an indispensable role in treating disease. For example, life without antibiotics would be much more precarious—common infections we think nothing of now would suddenly become life-threatening.
But even the most beneficial drug can have disruptive side effects. Antibiotics in particular can cause a rare but still disturbing one: a growth on the tongue that at first glance looks like dark hair. In fact, it's often called "black hairy tongue."
It isn't hair—it's an overgrowth of naturally occurring structures on the tongue called filiform papillae. These tiny bumps on the tongue's upper surface help grip food while you're chewing. They're normally about a millimeter in length and tend to be scraped down in the normal course of eating. As they're constantly growing, they replenish quickly.
We're not sure how it occurs, but it seems with a small portion of the population the normal growth patterns of the papillae become unbalanced after taking antibiotics, particularly those in the tetracycline family. Smoking and poor oral hygiene also seem to contribute to this growth imbalance. As a result, the papillae can grow as long as 18 millimeters with thin shafts resembling hair. It's also common for food debris and bacteria to adhere to this mass and discolor it in shades of yellow, green, brown or black.
While it's appearance can be bizarre or even frightening, it's not health-threatening. It's mostly remedied by removing the original cause, such as changing to a different antibiotic or quitting smoking, and gently cleaning the tongue everyday by brushing it or using a tongue scraper you can obtain from a pharmacy.
One word of caution: don't stop any medication you suspect of a side effect without first discussing it with your prescribing doctor. While effects like black hairy tongue are unpleasant, they're not harmful—and you don't want to interfere with treatments for problems that truly are.
If you would like more information on reactions to medication that might affect your oral health, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation.
Periodontal (gum) disease can weaken gum attachment and cause bone deterioration that eventually leads to tooth loss. But its detrimental effects can also extend beyond the mouth and worsen other health problems like heart disease or diabetes.
While the relationship between gum disease and other health conditions isn't fully understood, there does seem to be a common denominator: chronic inflammation. Inflammation is a natural defense mechanism the body uses to isolate damaged or diseased tissues from healthier ones. But if the infection and inflammation become locked in constant battle, often the case with gum disease, then the now chronic inflammation can actually damage tissue.
Inflammation is also a key factor in conditions like heart disease and diabetes, as well as rheumatoid arthritis or osteoporosis. Inflammation contributes to plaque buildup in blood vessels that impedes circulation and endangers the heart. Diabetes-related inflammation can contribute to slower wound healing and blindness.
Advanced gum disease can stimulate the body's overall inflammatory response. Furthermore, the breakdown of gum tissues makes it easier for bacteria and other toxins from the mouth to enter the bloodstream and spread throughout the body to trigger further inflammation. These reactions could make it more difficult to control any inflammatory condition like diabetes or heart disease, or increase your risk for developing one.
To minimize this outcome, you should see a dentist as soon as possible if you notice reddened, swollen or bleeding gums. The sooner you begin treatment, the less impact it may have on your overall health. And because gum disease can be hard to notice in its early stages, be sure you visit the dentist regularly for cleanings and checkups.
The most important thing you can do, though, is to try to prevent gum disease from occurring in the first place. You can do this by brushing twice and flossing once every day to keep dental plaque, the main trigger for gum disease, from accumulating on tooth surfaces.
Guarding against gum disease will certainly help you maintain healthy teeth and gums. But it could also help protect you from—or lessen the severity of—other serious health conditions.
If you would like more information on preventing and treating gum disease, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Good Oral Health Leads to Better Health Overall."
Each year thousands of people develop sinus infections from various causes. But there's one cause for sinusitis that might surprise you—tooth decay.
Tooth decay begins when the acid produced by oral bacteria erodes a tooth's enamel protection to create a small hole or cavity. Left untreated, the infection can move into the inner pulp of the tooth and tiny passageways leading to the roots called root canals. The decay can then infect and break down the structure of the supporting jawbone.
This could affect the sinus cavities, hollow air-filled spaces in the upper portion of the face. The maxillary sinus in particular sits behind the cheek bones just above the upper jaw. Tooth roots, particularly in back teeth, can extend quite near or even poke through the floor of the maxillary sinus.
If decay affects these roots, the bone beneath this floor may begin to break down and allow the bacterial infection to enter the sinus. We call this particular kind of sinus infection maxillary sinusitis of endodontic origin (MSEO), "endodontic" referring to the interior structure of teeth.
While advanced decay can show symptoms like pain or sensitivity with certain hot or cold foods, it's also possible to have it and not know it directly. But a recurring sinus infection could be an indirect indication that the root of your suffering is a deeply decayed tooth. Treating the sinus infection with antibiotics won't cure this underlying dental problem. For that you'll need to see a dentist or an endodontist, a specialist for interior tooth issues.
The most common way to treat deep tooth decay is with root canal therapy. In this procedure, the dentist enters the decayed tooth's pulp (nerve chamber) and root canals and removes the diseased tissue. They will then fill the empty pulp and root canals with a special filling and seal the tooth to prevent future infection. The procedure stops the infection and saves the tooth—and if you have MSEO, it eliminates the cause of the sinus infection.
So, if you're suffering from chronic sinus infections, you might talk with your dentist about the possibility of a tooth infection. A thorough examination might reveal a decayed tooth in need of treatment.

Do you grind your teeth? If you're not sure, ask your family—sometimes the sound of teeth grinding against teeth might make enough noise to be keeping them up at night. You might also be waking with sore jaw muscles and joints.
If you suspect you have this habit of involuntarily grinding, gnashing or clenching your teeth, it's a good idea to get it checked. Here are 3 things you should know about this odd habit.
Teeth-grinding more prevalent among children. Children are more likely than adults to grind their teeth in their sleep, thought to be a consequence of their developing swallowing mechanism, but usually grow out of it without any long-term effects. Adults with the habit seem to grind their teeth for different reasons, one of the most significant being a response to high stress. Tobacco could be another factor: users are twice as likely as non-users to grind their teeth. Adult teeth-grinding may also be associated with high caffeine consumption, illicit drug use or Parkinson's Disease, which impairs brain nerve function.
Sleep apnea can be an underlying cause. There's one other major underlying cause to add to that list: obstructive sleep apnea. One international study of thousands of patients from different countries found both high anxiety or stress and sleep-related breathing disorders were two of the most significant risk factors for adult teeth-grinding. It's believed the physical stress generated by these temporary episodes of breathing obstruction occurring several times a night could trigger teeth-grinding.
Teeth-grinding can cause dental problems. While having a teeth-grinding habit doesn't automatically mean you'll have dental issues, your risk can increase dramatically. Due to its chronic nature, teeth-grinding can lead to excessive tooth wear, dental work damage or jaw joint dysfunction. In some extreme cases, it could cause tooth fracture.
If you grind your teeth, your dentist may be able to help by creating a custom-made occlusal guard that can reduce biting forces while you're wearing it. You might also minimize teeth-grinding by quitting tobacco and other lifestyle changes, or getting a better handle on stress management. And if you're also diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea, getting treatment for that condition will not only improve your overall health, it could help put an end to your teeth-grinding habit.

Everyone has to face the music at some time — even John Lydon, former lead singer of The Sex Pistols, arguably England's best known punk rock band. The 59-year old musician was once better known by his stage name, Johnny Rotten — a brash reference to the visibly degraded state of his teeth. But in the decades since his band broke up, Lydon's lifelong deficiency in dental hygiene had begun to cause him serious problems.
In recent years, Lydon has had several dental surgeries — including one to resolve two serious abscesses in his mouth, which left him with stitches in his gums and a temporary speech impediment. Photos show that he also had missing teeth, which, sources say, he opted to replace with dental implants.
For Lydon (and many others in the same situation) that's likely to be an excellent choice. Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement today, for some very good reasons. The most natural-looking of all tooth replacements, implants also have a higher success rate than any other method: over 95 percent. They can be used to replace one tooth, several teeth, or an entire arch (top or bottom row) of teeth. And with only routine care, they can last for the rest of your life.
Like natural teeth, dental implants get support from the bone in your jaw. The implant itself — a screw-like titanium post — is inserted into the jaw in a minor surgical operation. The lifelike, visible part of the tooth — the crown — is attached to the implant by a sturdy connector called an abutment. In time, the titanium metal of the implant actually becomes fused with the living bone tissue. This not only provides a solid anchorage for the prosthetic, but it also prevents bone loss at the site of the missing tooth — which is something neither bridgework nor dentures can do.
It's true that implants may have a higher initial cost than other tooth replacement methods; in the long run, however, they may prove more economical. Over time, the cost of repeated dental treatments and periodic replacement of shorter-lived tooth restorations (not to mention lost time and discomfort) can easily exceed the expense of implants.
That's a lesson John Lydon has learned. "A lot of ill health came from neglecting my teeth," he told a newspaper reporter. "I felt sick all the time, and I decided to do something about it… I've had all kinds of abscesses, jaw surgery. It costs money and is very painful. So Johnny says: 'Get your brush!'"
We couldn't agree more. But if brushing isn't enough, it may be time to consider dental implants. If you would like more information about dental implants, please call our office to schedule a consultation. You can read more in the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Dental Implants" and "Save a Tooth or Get an Implant?"

Women's fashion retailer Brown Sugar needs saving a second time as owner placed in administration
Yolanda Redrup
Women's fashion retailer Brown Sugar is in trouble once again, just two years after the fashion brand first collapsed, with the company's owner now being placed in administration.
Brand Directions confirmed with SmartCompany this morning the business, which purchased Brown Sugar out of administration back in 2011, has now been placed in administration itself.
Brand Directions director Winfred Fan told SmartCompany the women's fashion chain has been placed in administration, although stores continue to trade, saying it's "business as usual".
There will be store closures, but the precise number is yet to be determined. Fan has also confirmed there will be job losses.
Robyn-Lee Erskine from Brooke Bird & Co has now been appointed as administrator to the company. ASIC filings indicate the company was placed in administration on March 28. The company was contacted by SmartCompany, but there was no response prior to publication.
Brand Directions is expected to release a statement later this week.
In August 2011, the retailer was first placed in administration, with administrators saying it had been subject to a number of management changes since 2009.
In May 2012, David Mullen, the previous director of Brand Directions, resigned after a disagreement with the owners of Brown Sugar about the future of the retailer. Mullen was credited with the revival of the brand following its original administration, but was replaced by Fan.
At the time, Mullen wrote to suppliers informing them of the changeover.
"Unfortunately, over the past few weeks it has become apparent that we have significantly different strategic approaches with regards to the future growth of the Brown Sugar business.
"As their approach differs from my own belief of what is required to restore the brand, I have decided to resign as managing director, effective immediately," he says.
Fan told SmartCompany previously that Mullen had quit because he wanted to rollout 15 to 20 stores over the next two to three years, but Fan didn't believe the brand was ready for that degree of expansion.
The original collapse of Brown Sugar came alongside several collapses in the boutique fashion industry.


Citing the needs of fragile patients, Covenant Health has clarified how assessments are done in its facilities for patients who want to end their lives under provisions of the medical assistance in dying (MAID) law.
Legalized in 2016, Medical Assistance in Dying allows a physician to administer a lethal medication or provide the means for a patient to do so.
Last year at least two patients had their MAID assessments done outside in public areas around Covenant Health facilities. Since then, every patient actively exploring MAID has had their assessment completed on site.
Under the policy, witnessing and signing of legal documents and assessments of eligibility can take place on Covenant Health sites. Patients deemed eligible for MAID would still be transferred to other facilities.
"We're not playing the role of making that determination of whether an assessment takes place or not, that's something that we defer to AHS in the context of their conversation with the patient," said Self.
"We're always happy when Covenant Health is responsive to some of the things that come their way," said Sandra Azocar, executive director of Friends of Medicare.
Azocar wants to see provisions made to allow assisted deaths on Covenant Health sites, not just the assessments, especially in rural Alberta where healthcare options are limited.
According to the federal government, over 40 per cent of Canadians who died under MAID in 2017 did so at home, not in a hospital.
Azocar maintained that Covenant Health is creating barriers and roadblocks for patients, but Self denies that.
"That's incompatible with who we are as an organization," said Self.
If a service is not available in a community, it's up to AHS to fill the gap, not Covenant Health.
Self said that Covenant Health staff as well as Alberta Health Services care coordinators also have a role to help direct people to palliative care as an option.
He also noted that most people exploring MAiD in Covenant Health facilities end up choosing palliative care instead, although he did not have on hand the number of people who made that choice.
Covenant Health's new policy also clarifies the need for proper documentation at every step in the MAiD process, including a new Government of Canada requirement for medical and nurse practitioners to file reports every time they receive a request.
Covenant Health's policy will continue to evolve, said Self. The next review is scheduled for December 2021.

His latest book, Predicting the Turn, provides CMOs with invaluable perspective on how to anticipate industry upheaval ahead and how best to prepare and lean in to those changes that can radically disrupt — even threaten — their businesses. Taking a page from startups, legacy companies can eschew the old habits that slow transformation and move forward for growth.
I caught up with Knox to learn more about the story behind the book, the experiences that fed into it, and the lessons it offers for CMOs.
Our interview, edited for length and clarity, follows.
Jenny Rooney: What was the impetus for the book?
Dave Knox: The real "aha" was actually the work that came out of Rockfish. We had these innovation workshops. We were doing those programs with Ford and Southwest and Walmart and Sam's Club, and as I looked at the challenges the companies were struggling with, it was this rise of the [new] business models. When all of us in the big companies were thinking of digital as a marketing tool, the startups were thinking of it as a business model, where advertising and marketing were just a small part of it. [I asked myself the question,] "If I started a business in a digitally native world, what would it look like?" — for example, Airbnb.
Rooney: You wrote the book with the premise that legacy companies can reinvent themselves?
Knox: Some of the best companies and leaders today have already shown a history of reinvention. So reinvention is not new. The foundation is there in many different ways, but the behavior that needs to be taking place today is realizing that change has become exponential. One of the biggest drivers is that digital has made change exponential in a way that business has never seen before. So that's a big factor that brands [need to recognize,] and it's why I call it high-stakes business. No one would ever say that competition hasn't been fierce. But they were polite battles, I'd say. Pretty polite competition. Think about what Uber does now when they compete and they believe that regulations don't apply to them. The competitors of today aren't necessarily playing by the rules that we're all [used to] playing by.
The companies have this history of reinvention. But they also have the ability to use the resources at their disposal. Look at Amazon. No one thinks of them as a small company. Yet they're the company for which Jeff Bezos once famously said he loves to take inspiration from entrepreneurs and put an Amazon spin on it. Bezos decided to take the Prime platform and make Prime Now, and he did it. There's an advantage for big companies if they can actually get out of their own way, if you will.
Rooney: Who's winning and who's losing?
Knox: Almost all of big companies were failing from 2008 to 2013, because all of them were looking at innovation as a shiny object. I was guilty of it, we all were. The big companies were failing alongside each other at the time. Fast forward to now, some are realizing you can't just focus on shiny objects, you have to focus on real changes. Ford is doing it right, GM is doing it right. On the flip side, you look at some of the big auto guys, maybe especially in luxury — what are they doing in this world to compete and survive? Volkswagen obviously has a lot of problems to overcome. Much of their investment is being spent on emissions issues. In CPG, in food, there's a lot going on at the moment. Some of the best examples are playing out. Look at what Campbell's is doing, for example, acquiring Plum Organics. The founder of Plum wanted to launch a new company called Habit and Campbell's was the sole investor. General Mills is doing some interesting things in investments, [and] Nestle.
Rooney: What's marketing's role in all this?
Knox: One is that marketing is actually an opportunity for the CMO to broaden his or her role in the C-suite. By nature, the CMO should be the most externally focused of anyone in the C-suite. They should be able to sense consumer insights. One of the core things you can do [as CMO] is [cultivate] this concept of market intelligence, which is developing a sense of how and when the future of your industry is going to happen and then sharing that with stakeholders across your company. It can be practiced. Let's take subscription commerce. But if we look back, it was 2010, 2011 and 2012 that $300 million of venture capital was invested in subscription commerce. The smart [companies] asked, "is there a fundamental shift in consumer expectations about how retail is delivered to them?" It's the same thing as the sharing economy. Don't wait until it gets to your business before you're worrying about it.
Rooney: What are appropriate action steps?
Knox: Partnering, investing, even acquisition. The CMO can drive in partnership with the CFO and the corporate development team in the identification of the future of the business and how to behave and act quickly.
Rooney: Data is key?
Knox: Data is just one small part of it. Yes, data was a part of Dollar Shave Club's acquisition, and it's probably the most valuable with what Under Armour has done with connected fitness — it's not the biggest part of that by any means.
It's a different muscle. We've always touted the creativity and innovation muscles of the CMO, but this is really putting it in practice. It's, "What's the big idea for this new direction?" That's also the power for the CMO — to help craft the story for what the opportunity is.
Rooney: What was most surprising thing you learned in doing your research for the book? Were any hypotheses debunked?
Knox: When I looked at a lot of the Fortune 100, [I tried to determine] how many were doing the activities [investing, innovation-driven acquisition, strategic investment, partnership, disrupt the disruptor] but not getting credit or connecting the dots, out of a fear of not touting the activities before they're successful. But you're in a battle for mindshare these days. There's a value in being out there and being visible today. But in [the] corporate [world], there's still a fear of failure, and you don't want to tout something until you're successful, but you actually should be doing the exact opposite of that now.
The biggest [takeaway]: The marketers have every right in an organization to be the most externally focused, but the behavior is not necessarily there. The CMO needs to be challenging all of their employees on how they can be externally focused as much as internally focused. And we can't do that by just going to events — Cannes [Lions Festival of Creativity] and other places. Also, start in your own backyards. Innovation is happening in every pocket of the world in cities and states and in countries across the globe, and you can't just think that innovation is just a Silicon Valley [thing]…it's happening everywhere, and look first in your backyard and don't think you check a box by flying out to San Francisco and meeting with Google and Facebook.

Constitutional Expert: Obama Can Detain US Citizens
This article was originally posted on Washington's Blog on December 21, 2011.
Top Legal Expert: "President Obama … Says That He Can Kill [Any American Citizen Without Any Charge and] On His Own Discretion. He Can Jail You Indefinitely On His Own Discretion"
By: Washington's Blog
This admittedly sounds over-the-top. But one of the nation's top constitutional and military law experts – Jonathan Turley – agrees.
Turley:
Is the second most cited law professor in the country
Has worked as both the CBS and NBC legal analyst during national controversies
Ranks 38th in the top 100 most cited 'public intellectuals' in a recent study by a well-known judge
Is one of the top 10 lawyers handling military cases
Has served as a consultant on homeland security and constitutional issues
Is a frequent witness before the House and Senate on constitutional and statutory issues
Turley said yesterday on C-Span (starting at 15:50):
You've now got a president who says that he can kill you on his own discretion. He can jail you indefinitely on his own discretion
I don't think the the Framers ever anticipated that [the American people would be so apathetic]. They assumed that people would hold their liberties close, and that they wouldn't relax …
Government Says It Can Assassinate or Indefinitely Detain Americans on American Soil Without Any Due Process of Law
The Government Has Never Given a Rationale for Assassination
While one might assume that the government has given a valid justification for the claim that it can assassinate anyone anywhere, the Washington Post noted yesterday:
In outlining its legal reasoning, the administration has cited broad congressional authorizations and presidential approvals, the international laws of war and the right to self-defense. But it has not offered the American public, uneasy allies or international authorities any specifics that would make it possible to judge how it is applying those laws.
"They've based it on the personal legitimacy of [President] Obama — the 'trust me' concept," [American University law professor Kenneth Anderson] said. "That's not a viable concept for a president going forward."
Under domestic law, the administration considers [assassinations] to be covered by the Authorization for Use of Military Force that Congress passed days after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. In two key sentences that have no expiration date, the AUMF gives the president sole power to use "all necessary and appropriate force" against nations, groups or persons who committed or aided the attacks, and to prevent future attacks. [But the government just broadened the authorization for use of military force from those who attacked us on 9/11 to include the Taliban and the vague category of "associated forces".]
The authorization did not address targets' nationality or set geographical boundaries, and there was "nothing about the permission of the government" of any country where a terrorist might be found, the former official said.
And see this.
