This month's media briefing.
25 retail stars
Monocle presents a list of our favourite shops, the most attentive services, the best store designs and the most innovative concepts in the retail sector.
Trad over rad
The prevailing mood at this year's Stockholm Furniture Fair was one of optimism, but companies shunned daring, boundary-pushing concepts in favour of classic, well-crafted works.
A clever redesign for a school in Spain, apartments with a view in Switzerland, the rebirth of rattan in Copenhagen and the craft of tea-caddies in Japan.
The Seattle retailer who wants to become the US version of Beams, new classics from Universal Works, and a Q&A with Simon Spurr.
A sleek wooden locomotive toy and a smart Danish bike helmet are among the picks for this month's shopping guide, but we start with a look at a stunning boutique hotel in the Netherlands.
Our quest to discover the planet's best beds, cafés and spas goes on. This month we visit a well- curated New York general store, a floating Arctic paradise and a modernist Austrian mountain lodge. We also look at the bright future of Guam-based airline Continental Micronesia.
Micro to macro
Continental Micronesia, with an HQ on the idyllic island of Guam, has expanded its routes and is fit for the future.
Turning heads
Mühlbauer in Vienna creates headwear in the age-old way. The business was saved from the brink of collapse by the brother and sister owners and their designs are now sold internationally.
La Candelaria
Even though La Candelaria is in Bogotá's city centre parts of it feel like a remote Andean village. With its colonial mansions, bohemian atmosphere and plans for regeneration afoot, foreign property buyers are investing in the area and snapping up bargains.
Café cultured
Coffee is a way of life for New Zealanders and there are no finer connoisseurs than the guys at Coffee Supreme. The company's Al Keating gives Monocle a food-and-drink tour of his Ponsonby neighbourhood.
For her last meal, British fashion designer Margaret Howell would choose a venue and menu as simple and quintessentially English as her eponymous clothing brand – a picnic on a windswept beach near her weekend home on the English coast.
While last year's economic turbulence forced many retailers to up their game, there are too many who seem to have given up even trying. Fortunately, there are still shops out there who know what a huge difference decent service can make, and it's these that are inspiring Monocle's retail adventures, writes Tyler Brûlé.
Expo 32: Life in miniature
In studios around the world, they sit with scalpels, glue and balsa wood – creating everything from mini cities to pint-sized planes and shrunken ships in order to secure big budgets to build the real thing. Monocle meets the model-makers who know that small is indeed beautiful.

Finland — LIGHT THERAPY
Finnish company Valkee has found a new way for Finns to stay cheerful even in the depths of their cold, dark winters. Their small device – resembling an mp3 player with earphones – emits light directly to the brain through the ear canal which tests have shown helps reduce depression and anxiety caused by lack of sunlight.
"Like conventional light therapy, this method affects the brain's nervous system, but the source of the radiation is much closer," says CEO Juuso Nissilä. "A treatment of eight to 12 minutes has the same effect as 30 to 90 minutes of conventional therapy."
Finns can start stocking up on the device in pharmacies or via the company's website this spring. And anyone visiting the country next winter may find a nation with a more sunny disposition.
Who's happy now?
Feeling Finn: Despite the weather, most surveys suggest that overall the Finns are pretty content with their lot. They came second only to Denmark in a 2009 OECD happiness survey.
Very old gold
State of joy: The five happiest states in the US are Louisiana, Hawaii, Florida, Tennessee and Arizona according to a report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Gloomy predictions: Moody's "Misery List" predicts the Swiss will be more glum than the Bulgarians in 2010 as they have a more negative perception of the state of their economy.
Egypt — MINING
Egypt is planning to get rich. It has just begun exporting gold from a reactivated Pharaonic-era mine in the country's Eastern Desert. The Sukari mine (pictured above), run by FTSE-listed company Centamin Egypt, is expected to produce 200,000 ounces in 2010 alone (the Egyptian government gets 50 per cent of the profits).
"Nobody knows how big this is going to be yet," says Sami El-Raghy, the mineral explorer behind what is now the country's only modern-day commercial gold mine. "But everybody knows it's going to be big."
The British were thought to have taken the last of Egypt's gold reserves when they left in 1952. But many are now wondering whether it's worth studying the ancient maps again in case more is hidden under the sand.
Lebanon — OIL AND GAS
Lebanon has announced that from 2011 private companies can explore for oil and gas off its coast. If adjacent Israeli fields are anything to go by, there could be lots. In 2009, the Israeli company Delek discovered a field with potential volumes of five trillion cubic feet of gas. A similar find for Lebanon could mean economic stability and no more power cuts.
The latest buzz
USA — TEA
Rhode Island-based start-up Runa has worked out something the indigenous people of Ecuador have known for centuries. The Amazonian sweet plant called "guayusa" is packed with vitamins, amino acids, nearly double the caffeine of coffee, and guanidine, a relaxing, alkaline compound. Runa's guayusa tea has been flying off the virtual shelves, and real ones in four US cities since it went on sale early this year. Ecuadorians believe the leaves promote mental acuity, courage and good dreams. And, unlike coffee, however much you drink it doesn't give you the jitters.
Nice doing business
Eastern Europe/Central Asia
Eastern European and Central Asian countries have been the world's most active business reformers for six years running. Of all of them, Georgia has done the best. It overtook the likes of Japan and Finland last year, to rank 11th in the world in terms of ease of doing business – just witness the ad spend on CNN.

Pope Francis to launch rosary 'marathon' for end to pandemic
Pope Francis prays at the Lourdes Grotto in the Vatican Gardens May 30, 2020. | Vatican Media.
Vatican City, Apr 28, 2021 / 07:00 am
Pope Francis on Saturday will lead a rosary to begin a month-long prayer marathon for the end of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pope's rosary will be broadcast live from the Gregorian Chapel of St. Peter's Basilica at 6 p.m. Rome time on May 1.
Situated directly to the west of the Holy Sacrament Chapel, the Gregorian Chapel contains the relics of St. Gregory of Nazianzus, a Doctor of the Church, as well as a 7th-century icon of Our Lady of Help.
The rosary kicks off a month of daily rosaries prayed at Catholic shrines around the world for the intention of an end to the coronavirus pandemic and the resumption of work and social activities.
Families, teens, and young adults from Rome and the surrounding region will lead the rosary together with Pope Francis.
During the event May 1, Pope Francis will also bless rosaries to be sent to the 30 Marian shrines participating in the daily live-streamed prayers.
Among these are the shrines of Our Lady of Walsingham in England, the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in the United States, Our Lady of Częstochowa in Poland, the Blessed Virgin of the Rosary in South Korea, Our Lady of Aparecida in Brazil, Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage in the Philippines, Our Lady of Knock in Ireland, the Virgin of the Poor at Banneux in Belgium, Notre Dame d'Afrique in Algeria, Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima in Portugal, and Our Lady of Health in India.
Participating shrines in Italy include the Holy House of Loreto and Shrine of the Virgin of the Rosary of Pompei.
The other global shrines are Jesus the Saviour and Mother Mary in Nigeria, the Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth, Our Lady of Lujan in Argentina, Our Lady Queen of Peace at Medjugorje in Bosnia, St. Mary's Cathedral in Australia, Our Lady of Lourdes in France, Meryem Ana in Turkey, Nuestra Señora de la Caridad del Cobre in Cuba, Our Lady of Nagasaki in Japan, Nuestra Señora de Montserrat in Spain, Notre Dame du Cap in Canada, the National Shrine Our Lady Ta' Pinu in Malta, Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe in Mexico, Mother of God in Zarvantysia in Ukraine, Altötting in Germany, and Our Lady of Lebanon in Harissa, Lebanon.
Pope Francis will also close the month of rosaries by leading the prayer in the Vatican Gardens May 31.
The initiative, organized by the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization, is in response to a request from the pope.
"Pope Francis wishes to involve all the shrines around the world in this initiative, so that they may become vehicles of the prayer of the entire Church," a press release said. "The initiative is being conducted in the light of the biblical expression: 'Prayer by the Church was fervently being made to God' (Acts 12:5)."
The Vatican's evangelization office said it had "extended this invitation to all the shrines around the world, in order to promote the diffusion of the initiative in the relevant regions, so as to reach priests, families, and all the faithful, inviting them to join in this prayer of intercession and hope to the Blessed Virgin Mary."
All Catholics are invited to participate in the daily rosaries however and wherever they are able, the press release said.
A liturgical guide, available in English, Spanish, and Italian, can be downloaded from the website of the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization.

Gamewanders
Each player builds their own metropolis in Quadropolis (first announced as City Mania), but they're competing with one another for the shops, parks, public services and other structures to be placed in them.
The game lasts four rounds, and in each round players first lay out tiles for the appropriate round at random on a 5x5 grid. Each player has four architects numbered 1-4 and on a turn, a player places an architect next to a row or column in the grid, claims the tile that's as far in as the number of the architect placed (e.g., the fourth tile in for architect #4), places that tile in the appropriately numbered row or column on the player's 4x4 city board, then claims any resources associated with the tile (inhabitants or energy).
When a player takes a tile, a figure is placed in this now-empty space and the next player cannot place an architect in the same row or column where this tile was located. In addition, you can't place one architect on top of another, so each placement cuts off play options for you and everyone else later in the round.
After all players have placed all four architects, the round ends, all remaining tiles are removed, and the tiles for the next round laid out. After four rounds, the game ends. Players can move the inhabitants and energy among their tiles at any point during the game to see how to maximize their score. At game end, they then score for each of the six types of buildings depending on how well they build their city.
Some buildings are worth victory points (VPs) on their own, and once players sum these values with what they've scored for each type of building in their city, whoever has the highest score wins.

[YOUSAF ALI] There is no blame on you if ye divorce women before consummation or the fixation of their dower; but bestow on them (A suitable gift), the wealthy according to his means, and the poor according to his means;- A gift of a reasonable amount is due from those who wish to do the right thing.
[ PICKTHAL ] It is no sin for you if ye divorce women while yet ye have not touched them, nor appointed unto them a portion. Provide for them, the rich according to his means, and the straitened according to his means, a fair provision. (This is) a bounden duty for those who do good.
[ SHAKIR ] There is no blame on you if you divorce women when you have not touched them or appointed for them a portion, and make provision for them, the wealthy according to his means and the straitened in circumstances according to his means, a provision according to usage; (this is) a duty on the doers of good (to others).
[YOUSAF ALI] Behold! Thou didst say to one who had received the grace of Allah and thy favour: "Retain thou (in wedlock) thy wife, and fear Allah." But thou didst hide in thy heart that which Allah was about to make manifest: thou didst fear the people, but it is more fitting that thou shouldst fear Allah. Then when Zaid had dissolved (his marriage) with her, with the necessary (formality), We joined her in marriage to thee: in order that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the Believers in (the matter of) marriage with the wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have dissolved with the necessary (formality) (their marriage) with them. And Allah's command must be fulfilled.
[ PICKTHAL ] And when thou saidst unto him on whom Allah hath conferred favour and thou hast conferred favour: Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah. And thou didst hide in thy mind that which Allah was to bring to light, and thou didst fear mankind whereas Allah hath a better right that thou shouldst fear Him. So when Zeyd had performed that necessary formality (of divorce) from her, We gave her unto thee in marriage, so that (henceforth) there may be no sin for believers in respect of wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have performed the necessary formality (of release) from them. The commandment of Allah must be fulfilled.
[ SHAKIR ] And when you said to him to whom Allah had shown favor and to whom you had shown a favor: Keep your wife to yourself and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; and you concealed in your soul what Allah would bring to light, and you feared men, and Allah had a greater right that you should fear Him. But when Zaid had accomplished his want of her, We gave her to you as a wife, so that there should be no difficulty for the believers in respect of the wives of their adopted sons, when they have accomplished their want of them; and Allah's command shall be performed.
[YOUSAF ALI] O Prophet! When ye do divorce women, divorce them at their prescribed periods, and count (accurately), their prescribed periods: And fear Allah your Lord: and turn them not out of their houses, nor shall they (themselves) leave, except in case they are guilty of some open lewdness, those are limits set by Allah: and any who transgresses the limits of Allah, does verily wrong his (own) soul: thou knowest not if perchance Allah will bring about thereafter some new situation.
[ PICKTHAL ] O Prophet! When ye (men) put away women, put them away for their (legal) period and reckon the period, and keep your duty to Allah, your Lord. Expel them not from their houses nor let them go forth unless they commit open immorality. Such are the limits (imposed by) Allah; and whoso transgresseth Allah's limits, he verily wrongeth his soul. Thou knowest not: it may be that Allah will afterward bring some new thing to pass.
[ SHAKIR ] O Prophet! when you divorce women, divorce them for~ their prescribed time, and calculate the number of the days prescribed, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah, your Lord. Do not drive them out of their houses, nor should they themselves go forth, unless they commit an open indecency; and these are the limits of Allah, and whoever goes beyond the limits of Allah, he indeed does injustice to his own soul. You do not know that Allah may after that bring about reunion.

A morning in Harlem with Hillary Clinton
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton walks onto stage in Harlem with Sen. Chuck Schumer at the Apollo Theater on March 30, 2016 in New York City. Credit: Getty Images / Spencer Platt
By Mark Chiusano March 30, 2016
Hillary Clinton made a stop Wednesday morning at the Harlem bakery Make My Cake, along with Congressman Charles Rangel.
Rangel reported that he'd been to the shop, during the holidays for example, and repeatedly expressed the worry that his wife would find out he'd indulged his sweet tooth.
He also had harsh words for a certain senator also running for the Democratic nomination: Vermont's Bernie Sanders.
"There is a senator that I have heard is running for president. I've been in Congress for 46 years. Wouldn't I have had a conversation with him?" He said he had only spoken with Sanders "recently about three or four months ago," along with members of the Black Congressional Caucus.
He acknowledged the "frustration" with economic issues that Sanders was addressing, but asked what else Sanders had "made a priority" in his years in Congress.
Asked about African-American voters in New York who might support Sanders, Rangel said "maybe" but asked where exactly those voters might be.
Clinton walked in, wearing a black leather outfit matching Rangel's. She chatted with voters and received a package of the bakery's sweets.
Rangel repeated his questions about Sanders, and also looked ahead to further opposition: "New York City's contribution to the Democratic Party is Don Trump." Rangel mentioned the GOP candidates twice, first time using his full first name and the unfamiliar, shortened version the second time.
About an hour later, Clinton appeared live at the Apollo Theater down the street. Sen. Chuck Schumer introduced her, noting her listening tour of NY before becoming a senator, and her strong support of the state after 9-11, and of gun control and the Brady Bill. Clinton namechecked Nicholas Scoppetta, a devoted NYC public servant whose funeral Mayor Bill de Blasio attended instead of the rally, and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who is up in Albany trying to nail down the state budget. She committed herself to taking on inequality, both income and racial, and standing up to the gun lobby.
Then, the secretary was cheered off the stage. No amateur night boos for her, but she still had to leave quickly -- the next show was coming in.


For over a decade Dan Evan's accessible but childish surrealism has delighted audiences throughout the UK and Ireland.
Whilst touring internationally, he's had his grammar corrected by Dutch and German crowds; performed for chubby sweating ex-pats in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Singapore, and Thailand, and is one of just two UK comics to play Hanoi, Vietnam.
He's appeared on BBC 2's Brain Candy, At The Store (Channel 5) and The Comedy Zone (Channel 5), Radio 2's Stand Up Show, and 28 acts in 28 minutes on Radio 4. Dan also co-wrote the sitcom 'The House of Rooms' with Milton Jones.
In Short, this is one very funny man and not be missed!


Tom's sister sent us this clip from an article that appeared in the GR Press this week. Tom's long-held football record for 445 yards rushing in a single game was broken. Tom was happy for the young man and is going to send him a congratulations card. 52 years is a long time to hold a record.
Tom's high school football performance gave him opportunity to play college football. He chose Western Michigan University from among the many offers he had. After suffering a career-ending injury, he transferred to Cornerstone University (Baptist Bible College at that time). That is where I met him. And the rest is history.
Tom is facing his cancer challenge with the grit and determination that he brought to the football field.
This past week he had his 11th chemo treatment. The doctor said he is doing great and tolerating the chemo well. She began reducing the amount of steroids he receives and now he is completely weaned from them. We are happy for that because the steroids have side effects too.
The chemo has a cumulative effect with fatigue. Tom is definitely more tired and unable to do what he would like. But I'm telling him "This too shall pass."
Right now, his last treatment is scheduled for November 14-the day before whitetail deer season opens in Michigan. That is always an important day in our family. We celebrate with the hunters coming over early and then coming into the house for hot meals and snacks. I love it because I cook all day long for my kids and grand kids.
We will really have something to celebrate this year-even if no one gets a deer.

Last night we had some pretty strong storms come through and it knocked out trees and power lines all around our area. Our power was out just over 12 hours and just came back on. I am typing as fast as I can hoping to get this posted in case we lose power again. While we were sitting around in the dark last night, I asked Natalie if there was a doll play idea that she had that maybe wasn't on our list. She said that she would love to have a Magic Show for the dolls and I checked – not on our list! So, this morning while we were patiently waiting for the power to come back on, we made a few things for the dolls and set up a Magic Show!
Here is Sandie, an Our Generation doll, working her "magic" on stage. To make her stage, cover a box with a scrap of fabric, a pillow case, bathroom towel or your favorite dress. Her magic wand is easy to make, too. Cut a 2″ piece of a drinking straw and cover it with black construction paper or duck tape. Put a little aluminum foil on the end and tada, you have a magic wand.
Nicki and Chrissa are enjoying the show and are amazed when Sandie pulls a POODLE out of her hat instead of the predictable rabbit. To make the magic hat I just made a cylinder with felt around a roll of packing tape. I cut out a circle of construction paper to use as the brim and taped it on top.
Today's printable activity sheet includes everything you need to set up your Magic Show including a sign, posters to place around Dollville and tickets for your dolls to see the show.
Download the Magic Show accessories printable as a PDF file.
Hopefully Mother Nature is done with her magic tricks for my area and we can enjoy a peaceful afternoon of picking up leaves and branches from the yard 😉 I also have the doll t-shirts and finally the styling heads packed and ready to mail to the winners, but the post office has no power, so they may have to wait until Monday to go out.
From Jennifer: Here is a picture of Kit doing a magic show from the magic show day. I made the rabbit out of cotton balls.
cool!! and char i am going to see fire works tonight (and i am going to bring my ag doll) there will be pictures coming soon!!!!
thirdie! This is really cool!
Thirdie? Anyways, adorable and i hope you don't lose power again.
No fifthie. Took too long to type.
I also had a bad storm that knocked down trees and had some feisty winds last night. Our power blinked but didn't go out completely.
Cute! I only had thunder storms. Its been like that the past few days.
that stinks about your power! i love how a poodle is coming out of the hat!
I did a magic show for the lights cameras dolls photo competition!
It didn't even rain here in Texas!
Anyway, I love this little magic show thing-a-ma-bob!
Where would you suggest getting a wig for American girl dolls?
Madelon – that's when we lost our power but luckily we have it back now. Stay cool and I hope you get it back soon.
So cute! My dolls will be having a magic show tonight!
I an to send in a pic but its part of a photo shoot . is that ok ?
Can I please send in a picture of a photo shoot I did with my doll ?
I lost power, too, Char. It was a couple of days ago from tropical storm Debby. A lot of places and roads nearby are flooded really deep.
when did you get an OG doll?
agisthebest – we got her about 6 weeks ago b ut this was the first time we used her in a photo shoot.
Char- There were some pretty severe storms last night where i live too . I hope this isnt too much in your business but what state do you live in. East or West ? North or South ?
char, i had an OG doll kind of like her! i dont know where she is though. i did end up cutting her hair and then curling it (i did what you did to Addison, thanks for that) i really like her, but i dont now where i put her! i nenamed her Ambreella. idk why but i am in love with that name!
I feel ya on the power being out. Last year during the tornadoes (we live in Alabama) our power was out for a week. Luckily no damage, but it was pretty bad. You don't realize how good you've got it until you suddenly don't have it anymore.
omg i had the storm to! umbreela over table and chairs over outside lamp lights over………………………. though i wasnt home we just came home and found the stuff like that and u could tell it rained and stormed. Luckily i was at my aunts house in onother state an hour away…….
My magic show was very cute!
Char- What will happen once the 100 days of play are over?
We had a TERRIBLE storm to!
Emma – don't worry, we will still keep you up to date on all the latest and greatest doll news, play and craft ideas and giveaways, too.
but Emma that is 70 days away!
We had a storm friday night too, do you live in Pennsylvania? We also had trees knocked down and this is great btw.
