Rudy Vallee's Bookplate
From the Antioch Bookplate Archives — Rudy Vallee's Bookplate
By Rebecca Eschliman
Among the samples of custom bookplates in the Antioch Bookplate archives is one with the signature of "Rudy Vallée" with the illustration of a Doberman Pinscher. Before definitively declaring that the bookplate was indeed printed for the well-known actor and bandleader, caution dictated that some confirming information be found (the correspondence with Antioch Bookplate to the create the bookplate had long been destroyed).
An Internet search did reveal that the actor was ineed mad about dogs, and at one time owned four, including two Dobermans. Historian of the Doberman Pinscher Club of America Marj Brooks noted: "Rudy owns two genuine Doberman Pinschers: Himmel…and Kaiser, a half-brother to Himmel. They are his constant companions and protectors… Kaiser takes keen interest in his master's Variety Hour. If he doesn't happen to like Rudy's tones he places his paw over his nose simulating a gesture used by human beings… But if you should invite Rudy to dinner, there too would go Dobermans Himmel and Kaiser."
Himmel was also noted for his association with famed dog psychiatrist Clarence Ellis Harbison as profiled in "The Dog's Freud: He treats phobias and complexes of the canine world" by Herbert Brean in LIFE, January 2, 1950.
"Rudy Vallee's doberman pinscher was easy to cure, although he presented a puzzle at first. The dog appeared healthy and sound, but the singer complained that he (the doberman) suffered fits of running wild through the house, scratching at doors, leaping at windows.
After having the dog in his bedroom one night, Harbison discovered the core of the trouble. It did not involve the psycho. The dog just needed to see a tree about a trunk every so often." (Milwaukee Journal, August 16, 1949)
One of the Dobermans owned by Vallée was noted in another context, since Vallée joined a few other actors contributing their animals to the war effort in the "Dogs for Defense" program.

Bookplates In The Rabbit Hole Part Two
More Bookplates In The Rabbit Hole
By Jeffrey Price
Fellow Collectors James Goode, Lew Jaffe and collector/dealer Tom Boss opened a gate to the wonderland of bookplates. How could I have not been aware of such a vast and rewarding field? Why weren't names like E. D. French, Spenceley, and C. S. Junge familiar to me? The fact that this entire genre of prints was 'under-the-radar' was so fascinating to me that I immediately dove in to learning all I could and acquiring some prints. It certainly was challenging to figure out what areas I wanted to focus on when so many genres were appealing.
Engraved by A.N. Macdonald for Enrico Caruso
I soon discovered that there were at least three distinctly different types of prints in the ex libris world. The British had created armorial plates featuring family crests and insignias for hundreds of years. In Europe the majority of modern ex libris prints were actually editions of 'free graphics' and surrealistic etchings, always inscribed with a patron's name and interestingly often too large to ever be glued into a book.
Americans raised the art of ex libris to new heights with some of history's finest engravers and designers creating miniature works of consummate beauty and craftsmanship. These American Masters soon became the focus of my collecting, and I began to acquire prints, proofs, and vintage books by these artists.
Engraved by E.D. French , designed by Howard Pyle for The Yale Club
I thought a lot about the words ex libris' and 'bookplate.' Certainly, many of these prints could have been glued into books to identify ownership, but these prints were so much more than name-plates. Each print reflected the personality of the patron, the craft of the artist, and the history of the time in which it was created. I believe many of these prints were presented by their owners as gifts to friends and collectors. My collection of plates, however, was not in books; each print was treasured separately and many were destined to be on my walls in fine picture frames. I decided the name 'Personal Prints' was the most appropriate title for a collection of these prints. My hope is that name sticks and becomes part of the general vocabulary describing bookplates. These prints deserve more dignity and a greater presence in the world of art and I believe new nomenclature is a good place to start!
After speaking to James Goode, Lew Jaffe and Tom Boss I discovered there were many appealing paths to explore in the Bookplate World. I began acquiring prints by famous artists or works commissioned by notable patrons. How exciting it was to discover that I could own a small print by Aubrey Beardsley, Winslow Homer and Maxfield Parrish, artists I had admired all my life! That enjoyment was multiplied by the fact that my art gallery features a world-class picture-framing workshop, and I was able to design frames for these works.
Designed by Maxfield Parrish for Theodore Weicker
Designed by Aubrey Beardsley for John Henry Ashworth
I learned that the usual way collectors organized their bookplates was to put them in albums or boxes in much the same way that stamps or baseball cards are stored. A lifetime of picture frame designing experience enabled me to create a gallery display of bookplates that was historical as well as down-right gorgeous. The possibilities for creative design are endless and a well-designed frame will only enhance and never overpower its contents. Fortunately, many small personal prints have huge impact that balances a complex frame design. It was inevitable that I would collect far quicker than I could sell these prints, and the fact was that I wanted to keep much of what I acquired for my own collection anyway, so I decided rather than a typical gallery exhibit I would create a space in my gallery known as 'The Artists' Bookplate Museum.' Of course, unlike most museums, many of the works on the walls had price-tags along with their historical captions!
Designed by E.B. Bird and engraved by E.D. French
One fortunate acquisition was a tattered 1911 edition of Freud's 'Interpretation of Dreams' with Charlie Chaplin's marvelous bookplate affixed to the inside of the front cover. The cover had separated from the book long ago, and that gave me the opportunity to frame the cover without committing the sin of destroying a historic book. I designed a frame with a hand-marbled-paper mat to surround the lovely view of Chaplin gazing at London with his trademark cane and shoes below and a theatrical mask above. Turning the frame over revealed the front of the book-cover with Freud's name and the title of his famous work. As a bonus, I commissioned Lynda Libby, a fine bookbinder from Washington State, to rebind the original book. Hanging in my gallery, I have no doubt that this little gem honoring Chaplin and Freud will be a great temptation to a future collector, especially considering that they can have Chaplin's personal copy of Freud's important book on their bookshelf while they enjoy a unique artwork on the wall.
Designed by Rob Wagner for Charlie Chaplin
Another unique presentation was created for a spectacular hand-colored example of the Ohio print for the Manila Library by Hopson which was embellished with a beautiful remarque. This print was accompanied by the original booklet describing the commission and the symbolism of the various design elements. The booklet was beautiful as well as informative, so I designed a frame with a pocket on the outside of the glass to hold the information, which could be raised from the pocket by pulling on a Mylar tab. I was thrilled that the print and the booklet could both be elegantly displayed and fully studied. This one was only on my gallery's walls for a few weeks before one of my clients - a woman who had never collected a bookplate before - became enthralled with this treasure and bought it on the spot.
I've continued to explore ways to combine the publication of a print with its creative process. I've designed frames that display an original printing plate by Carl Junge or Sarah Euginia Blake together with an example of their final print.
I have developed a frame design using rare earth magnets that allow a small booklet to be shown off in a frame together with an associated print in such a way that the booklet can be easily removed from the frame for study. W. F. Hopson's 'Rowfantia' proof and booklet was perfect for this cutting-edge frame.
At its best, a framed bookplate should continue to tell the story of the artwork, combining the history of the era, the desires of the patron, and the artistic skill of the printmaker.

Bookplates in the Rabbit Hole
Jeff and Esta
For the past forty years or so I have enjoyed collecting the woodcut bookplates by M. C. Escher and exhibiting them in my art gallery in Connecticut. In addition to inventing prints where fish turn into birds and stairways that wind in endless loops,
Escher created about a dozen woodblock engraved bookplates, each one of them quite rare and loaded with historical connections and aesthetic virtues.
The Latin in this print gives it its title: "A Reader Banishes Troubles" The print is surrounded with a mat embellished with watercolor and ink, and the frame is created from white gold with hand engraving in the traditional scagrafitto technique.
M.C. Escher's Works© The M.C. Escher Company,Baarn, The Netherlands
To celebrate the hundredth anniversary of Escher's birth in 1998, an exhibit was held in Holland that focused on Escher's bookplates and challenged artists around the world to create their own bookplate designs that somehow connected to Escher's unique and imaginative designs. I wrote to many of the artists who designed Escher-like prints, and my small collection grew to include marvelous prints by Peter Lazarov, Elle de Kosta, and many others.
Bookplates Inspired By M.C. Escher's Artwork
In 2005 I commissioned Natalija Cernecova of Latvia to design a 'personal print' for my wife Esta and myself.
Her brilliant etching featured a Venetian woman in a dress containing Escher-like butterflies, surrounded by floating spheres, and other delightful Escheresque and personal designs.
Cernecova's etching 'Scherzando'
My small and specialized collection kept me happy for many years, and then I fell down the ex libris rabbit hole in November of 2015. Today, just.eight months later, thousands of bookplates are organized in my albums and in frames on the walls of my art gallery, and I feel I have caught a collecting bug for which – delightfully – there may be no cure.

If I'm fit and well in four years time I shall be off to university at Cambridge. No, not Harvard, but to one of England's historic cities, where The Bookplate Society is proposing to hold the 38th International Exlibris Congress, commencing Wednesday, 12 August 2020. Already some impressive groundwork is in place, which you can see by visiting the website at
www.bookplatesociety.org/2020home.htm and linked pages.
The formula of taking over a college worked very well in 1982 when the 19th congress took place at Keble College, Oxford. Since then the quality of student rooms has greatly improved, and the intended venue, Churchill College, offers good modern accommodation, including a newly-opened bedroom block with elevator. The ancient aspects of Cambridge will be appreciated through tours of colleges and libraries, and by the formal dinner being held in the old dining hall of St John's College.
It appears that the organizers will be introducing some innovations, and with good forward planning in evidence this promises to be a busy and hugely enjoyable event. I can understand that there is intense competition to hold conferences in Oxford & Cambridge colleges, hence the need for very early booking.
Of course this all presupposes that, when they meet on 26 August 2016, FISAE delegates will vote to adopt this proposal, but the present troubles in Turkey (which held a congress as recently as 2010) don't make it an attractive alternative for me. So I plan to book my place at Cambridge as soon as registration opens, and thus to get a 10% reduction in the participation fee. However, don't expect to see me on the river in a punt!

I am sorting through a very fine collection of bookplates that were originally owned by a herpetologist, It contains lots of snake related plates along with insects and all sorts of critters. In addition many bookplates were from scientists and physicians at the University of Chicago.
So far I have selected about thirty bookplates for my own collection.

Bookplate of the week: Emil August Göldi
Jun 1st, 2012 by houghtonmodern
Émil August Göldi (1859-1917), whose colorful bookplate is this week's feature,was a Swiss-Brazilian zoologist who discovered numerous species of Amazonian wildlife, and researched the causes and prevention of yellow fever. Following a successful research career, Goldi was tasked by the Brazilian government with the founding of a scientific museum in Pará, which still exists today.
Göldi's bookplate, representing his background and various interests, is one of the few color bookplates in our collection.
This bookplate is part of the Daniel Butler Fearing collection at Houghton Library. Fearing collected several thousand bookplates related to angling, watercraft, and other related subjects.

C. de Mello Leitao
A zoologist considered the founder of Arachnologyin South America - who has published 198 articles on taxonomy of arachnids .
He was also an educator, writing books for college courses . He contributed to biogeography , studies on the distribution of members of the class Arachnida in the South American continent.
Dr.Frank J. Psota was an Insect Collector
This plate depicting Moses was engraved by Engelien Reitsma Valencia.The first time I looked at it I missed something. The second time I looked it made me laugh.
Sir John Eric Sidney Thompson (31 December 1898 – 9 September 1975) was a leading English Mesoamerican archaeologist, ethno historian, and epigrapher. While working in the United States, he dominated Maya studies and particularly the study of the Maya script until well into the sixties of the 20th century.
Otis Ellery Taylor specialized in ancient Persian architecture and wrote scholarly books on this subject.This beautifully engraved plate is 4 1/4 inches wide by 2 1/2 inches high.I have not found any biographical information about him nor do I know the meaning of the script.
Can anyone out there assist me ?
Charles Edward Jones , The Tombros Librarian for Classics and Humanities at The Pennsylvania State University Libraries.
quickly responded with this information:
"This is a really interesting bookplate. To tell you the truth, until your message came, I thad never heard of the man. A little googling tells me something about him, but not very much. This page
(https://earlysaskatchewanartinthenews.wordpress.com/category/art-history/), for instance, tells us:
"He met his lifelong friend and frequent travelling companion Otis Ellery Taylor in Vienna in 1928. There are indications that they had an extensive correspondence, but apart from a couple of postcards none of it survives as neither man left an archive behind. Otis Taylor is the only friend Snelgrove ever made reference to in recorded public pronouncements, although you can glean the names of other friends from the list of pallbearers at his funeral, mainly professors and teachers.
Taylor, a first graduate of the College of Commerce at the University of Nebraska in 1915, was, on the surface, an unusual match for Snelgrove. He worked for the Oswald Stoll organization managing theatres in London from 1917 and into the mid 1920s and then seems to have spent the rest of his life studying and travelling. He was what can only be described as a bon vivant, frequently noted in various social columns as doing the rounds of Palm Springs, New York and Europe or Asia year after year. [vi] In 1931 he married a wealthy widow over 25 years his senior and eventually obtained a PHD in Art History from the University of Chicago in 1939, after making several trips to study Persian monuments. When his wife died in 1946, he was based in New York City, where he was involved for a brief time with The American Institute of Iranian Art & Archaeology and then the American Red Cross during the war. Domiciled in swank apartment hotels until he died in 1988, he doesn't seem to have ever done paid work as an art historian.
There is no indication that Taylor had any interest in being an art historian until he met Snelgrove, whose thirst for more knowledge must have appealed to him. Both of them enrolled at the University of Chicago for art history courses in the summer of 1929.[vii] Moose Jaw then had railway connections which could get you directly to Chicago..."

The Magic Labyrinth - German board game gets a spiffy port.
iOS 4.0 Software Update or later.
Should I buy The Magic Labyrinth for iPhone?
The Magic Labyrinth may be simple, but it's addictive. It helps that the artwork—especially the introduction—has a "hand-drawn" air to it and is really gorgeous. Kids and adults alike will enjoy this game, as it's a fun brain challenge.
The Magic Labyrinth by Kiddinx for the iPhone and iPod touch is based on the popular German board game by the same name. This iPhone/iPod touch port features beautiful artwork along with a challenge to tease your brain—you must work your way through the labyrinth and collect symbols, but there's a catch: the walls are invisible.
The game is pretty simple—all you have to do is walk around a grid and collect symbols (the symbols are already on the grid; a white circle appears around your "goal" symbol). However, there are walls—it is a labyrinth, after all—and those walls are invisible. Each time you run into a wall, you are sent back to the beginning of the maze and you must make your way back to the "goal" symbol. The walls don't change, of course, they're just invisible—so it's a challenge to remember where they are.
There are two modes in the Magic Labyrinth: "Watch out!" mode and "Hurry up!" mode. In "Watch out!" mode, you have ten lives, and you lose one each time you walk into a wall. In "Hurry up!" mode, you have to collect as many symbols as you can in four minutes. Each mode has an "easy," "medium," and "hard" level, as well as the option of mice (mice make the game harder, as they crawl around the maze and bump into you, causing you to lose a life).

Anthony Duluc's Relentless Mindset Has Provided Him Tremendous Success
Anthony Duluc
Even during times of uncertainty in his life, Anthony Duluc has never strayed from his passion and what he knows his true calling in life is: performing. When visiting a friend, he asked Anthony to think back on a time when he was happiest. Without hesitation, Anthony said that one of the happiest moments of his life was minutes before he was set to take the stage for his school play.
When most of his fellow cast members were nervous and anxious, Anthony was still. He felt a calling to provide the best possible performance for the audience, and the idea of performing didn't bring about any nervous energy. This is the moment he knew that he had a natural knack for performing, and was a preview of what was to come in his career.
Even though Anthony studied sports journalism in college, he was soon drawn back to performing. He started his fitness journey around the same time he graduated from college, and used his captivating abilities in front of a camera to attract a large following on social media as a fitness influencer.
Today, Anthony trains several clients that have all stemmed from social media and also works as a TV, film and commercial actor.
Even though Anthony does what he loves for a living, he's still dealt with shortcomings and struggles. He's never shied away from sharing his failures with his audience on social media, and it allowed him to build much more personal connections with his followers. A lot of actors and people in his field tend to hide their shortcomings, so the transparency that Anthony displays is a refresher to his audience and his engagement rates are a reflection of that.
One of the biggest obstacles Anthony has had to overcome was when he tore his bicep. The surgery and resulting rehab was grueling, but he was back to full health in record time due to his resilience, grit, and around the clock commitment to rehab. In fact, he was able to rehab his bicep just in time for a live segment that aired on Jimmy Fallon where he performed a handstand pushup act.
Anthony admits it's been a challenge in his career coping with the idea that the entertainment industry is extremely competitive and cutthroat, and it can be tough to not take it personally when he isn't selected for a role. But one the flip side, the industry has tons of angles to book a job or get the attention necessary for a role, and his ability to pivot and stay optimistic has provided him tremendous success in his career.

San Juan Teófano Venard (Jean-Théophane Vénard, M.E.P.) (Saint-Loup-sur-Thouet, Poitiers, Francia, 21 de noviembre de 1829 - Tonkín, Vietnam, 2 de febrero de 1861) fue un misionero y mártir católico francés en Indochina. Fue miembro de las Sociedad de las Misiones Extranjeras de París. Fue beatificado junto a otros 33 católicos (la mayoría nativos de Tonkín, en Cochinchina). El papa Juan Pablo II lo canonizó junto a 19 mártires más en 1988.

Biografía

Venard estudió en el Colegio de Doué-la-Fontaine, Montmorillon, Poitiers, y de allí pasó al Seminario de la Sociedad de Misiones extranjeras de París en el que ingresó como subdiácono. Ordenado sacerdote el 5 de junio de 1852, partió hacia el lejano Oriente el 19 de septiembre. Después de quince meses en Hong Kong, llegaría a su misión de Tonkín (norte de Vietnam) en un tiempo donde el proselitismo era ilegal en aquel país.

Poco después de la llegada del Padre Vénard, se decretó un edicto contra los cristianos, y obispos y sacerdotes tuvieron que esconderse. En cambio, el padre Vénard continuó ejerciendo su ejercicio evangelizador por la noche. El 30 de noviembre de 1860, fue traicionado y capturado. Rechazó apostatar y fue sentenciado a ser decapitado. Estuvo cautivo hasta el 2 de febrero de 1861. Durante ese cautiverio, escribió a su familia transmitiéndoles paz y júbilo por su muerte pía. Su obispo, Monseñor Retord, escribió al mismo tiempo: "Pese a las cadenas, es feliz como un pajarillo".

Después de ser ejecutado, su cabeza fue expuesta en un madero hasta que fue rescatada por los cristianos y sus restos son hoy venerados en Tonkín. Su cuerpo descansa en la cripta de la Sociedad de misiones extranjeras de París. La causa de su beatificación fue introducida en 1879. Fue beatificado el 2 de mayo de 1909 por San Pio X y canonizado el 19 de junio de 1988 por Juan Pablo II.

San Teófano Vénard fue objeto de devoción particular de Santa Teresa de Lisieux. Ella conservaba una estampa y una reliquia del santo, también dedicó en su honor varias de sus poesías.

This week's beast is Ryan Compton, an Amateur Bodybuilder looking to go big on the international scene in years to come! We wanted to catch up with him this week to learn more about what it's like to become a bodybuilder, what his diet looks like and what makes a bodybuilder unique. The reason why we thought Ryan Compton's story was so compelling is due to the fact that he was previously overweighted and simply killed it in the past couple years. He first started training to simply loose weight and he turned out to find his true passion and become the man that he is now. A true and inspiring story from a real Beast.
1- What got you into BodyBuilding?
I first got into bodybuilding about a year ago. I set out on a goal of losing some weight and just becoming overall healthier. I fell in love with the gym and working out. Seeing my progress, it became a passion of mine to push my body to its limit and see what it is capable of. About a year into my journey I realized I had always wanted to compete. I spent my entire life overweight and being able to get my body to a point of being on stage and competing with others seemed impossible. When I realized how hard work pays off, I started to work toward competing.
2- What has it been like since starting? Is it harder than you first thought?
Since starting it has definitely gotten easier. Being overweight starting in the gym, I was self conscious and would only do cardio. Once I lost a few pounds I felt comfortable moving on to lifting. That's when I found my passion. It has been nothing short of astonishing to see where I started and where I am now. It is tough to push yourself every single day, the weights get heavier as time goes on but that also means I am improving.
3- In your opinion, what's the hardest part of being a bodybuilder?
For me, the hardest part of being a bodybuilder is definitely the mental aspect. Going from a shredded physique to a bulking phase plays on your mind big time. You have to eat so many calories daily to put on muscle mass. Sometimes I look in the mirror and see a little too much 'fluff' for my satisfaction but I keep reminding myself that it is part of the process. I can't walk around at 7% body fat all of the time and expect to see muscle gains.
4- What does your diet currently look like?
My diet currently consists of 1.5g of protein per pound of body weight, 1.5-2g of carbs per pound, and 0.5g per pound of fat per pound of body weight. Mostly I eat all clean calories, oatmeal, whole grain pasta, etc and I use some meal replacements so I can hit those macros. Excess of 3000 calories a day is a tall order when they're clean calories.
5- Who inspires you both in life and in the industry?
6- What does your daily routine look like?
7- What should we expect from Jason in 2017?
In 2017, you can expect me to continue putting in work so I can have my body in a state where I am ready to compete. I am looking forward to registering for an amateur show in 2018.
If I had one tip for anyone I would say it's all a process and it takes time. When I first started I became obsessed with dripping as much weight as fast as possible and building back up as fast as possible. It takes time and it takes a lot of work. Put in the work and reap the rewards, enjoy the journey!

Tooth Bunny® is happy to work with individuals, groups, companies and organizations to make a difference for children. For more information or if you would like to collaborate with Tooth Bunny®, please email: info@toothbunny.com.
Tooth Bunny's vision is, for little ones to enjoy life, free of preventable oral diseases.
Tooth Bunny's mission is, to encourage and empower little ones in developing good oral health and dental confidence, with the help from adults in their lives (parents, grandparents, carers, teachers, health practitioners, etc..); because good oral health is critical to good general health, growing, learning and well-being.
Tooth Bunny's philosophy is based on the belief that best oral health care is achieved by beginning from age zero and reinforced throughout childhood with the help of everyone who contribute to children's health, learning and well-being. Effective oral care habits are essential life skills, that if established well from early childhood, provide potential lifelong benefits.
Tooth Bunny's motto is, drink water, brush & floss, don't let germies be your boss.

A journey aimed at helping to protect children's priceless smiles against preventable oral diseases and the lifelong adverse effects from persistent oral diseases and pain. A journey, that hopes to empower and support children, families and others, by making available evidence-based information and practical resources. A journey that believes, together we can make a real difference.
Tooth Bunny is Dr Annetta Tsang's "brainchild". The idea came about while she was a postgraduate student in paediatric dentistry. Back then, as a young mum, studying and working in dentistry and oral health, Annetta was surprised by the many times she heard, "How come no one ever told us that?" from patients, students, families and friends. So she thought perhaps one day, Tooth Bunny could help convey dental and oral health messages to the families she would look after. Yet, doubts stopped her from making Tooth Bunny known to the world.
Her young daughter and husband were convinced that Tooth Bunny should be progressed and even contributed to the designing of various Tooth Bunny characters.. In the end, it was the words of her daughter that to action, "You have to help other kids so they can have great teeth like me... Tooth Bunny can help lots of kids; even kids who don't get to visit dentists. I will do this with you."
Tooth Bunny® eventually launched on World Cavity Free Future Day (#WCFFDay) - 4 October 2016.


In this video, relationship and dating coach Amy North from Vancouver, Canada, shares tips on how you can get a guy to approach you.
Picture this scenario: you and your girlfriends are out for some drinks one night and there's this guy across the room who catches your eye. You keep finding yourself looking in his direction and you also catch him glancing over yours repeatedly. He's cute and you're smitten. You want nothing more than for him to walk over and introduce himself.
Oftentimes though, you both stop at the glancing game. Despite the overt eye contacts made across the room throughout the night, nothing happens beyond that. It can be quite frustrating, right? How then do you get him to take it a step further?
Now this may seem bizzare but the first trick is to wave him over. You read that right: you need to take the first initiative beyond the exchange of glances and actually invite him over to your table.
Waving him over could never be mistaken for anything else but an invitation. In giving him permission to join you, he will feel more confident about approaching you because now he doesn't have to worry about being rejected.
Now, just because you waved him over doesn't mean that he'll be quick to accept your invitation. He may still have some reservations. You may have given him an obvious invite but he may still be worried about what your friends might say or do.
Give him additional assurance by waving him over again. Make sure to smile and make it absolutely clear that he's welcome to join your group. By smiling, you erase any doubts he may have about your friendly intentions.
If you feel that being around your friends would make him uncomfortable or if you yourself are not too keen about the idea of making his acquaintance with your friends for an audience, there are other ways you can do to create an opportunity for him to approach.
For instance, you could remove yourself from your girl group by taking a trip to the bathroom or answering a call outside. If he's interested, he will be watching out for such a chance to make his move. Just be sure to give him a hint by smiling at him as you walk away. That should give him the assurance he needs to follow your lead.
So when he does approach, what will your next move be? He will be expecting you to say something because you did invite him over. Keep it short and sweet and tell him simply, "I just wanted to say hi". At this point, you are passing the ball to his court. After all, you've already made the first move. This also keeps the pressure off of you. From hereon, keep the conversation light and breezy. Remember, the trick is still to keep him intrigued enough to want to ask you out.

Pacqiuao would lose against Mayweather Jr.

By Tom Drury: This subject has run its course and won't be answered until and if the fight ever happens. That said I feel the need to write this article because some of the arguments for a Manny Pacquiao win are ridiculous and some of the fans have asked why I believe Pacquiao offers no threat whatsoever to Floyd Mayweather Jr.
For the fans that post comments along the lines of Mayweather has never been out of his comfort zone, I would like to tell you the whole boxing world had the opinion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez was the man to take Mayweather out of his comfort zone, and we know what happened next.
Manny Pacquiao is a boxer/fighter with KO power. His style is reckless but exciting I agree. Pacquiao only succeeds against other fighters/brawlers (fact). Pacquiao is a rhythm fighter; he stays on his toes and moves in and out in a straight line like an amateur. Most amateurs are taught this way at the start of their boxing career, move in on the attack and out to avoid the counter it is a great point scoring style.
Pacquiao is a professional and I am not comparing him to an amateur; he has great power and speed, but this style only succeeds when he catches his opponent on the way in or is fighting an opponent that does not know how to box on the back foot or is not sufficient as a counter puncher.
If Pacquiao does not succeed moving in on the attack, then he eats counters and is very vulnerable. Juan Manuel Marquez is a prime example. I believe Marquez won two of the first three fights, but Pacquiao got the wins, so I respect that. Marquez is a fighter but has great technical ability in regards to timing, positioning and countering.
Marquez just has a tendency to fight. He is Mexican after all. The fourth fight was a prime example of technical soundness against reckless attacking. Marquez's KO was no lucky shot; it was timed to perfection and exposed that bad positioning that Pacquiao all too often gets himself in. Pacquiao is a front foot fighter only and his all-round boxing skills are limited; not to mention the jab been nonexistent. Pacquiao's whole game plan when entering the ring is offence. Freddie Roach, his trainer, is no doubt a great trainer but his ethics and lessons are based solely on front foot attacks and does not consider any defensive tactics. Pacquiao can expose weaknesses also in his opponent but only offensive weaknesses like Ricky Hatton 2009. I can remember a local amateur coach telling me two weeks before this fight took place "Pacquiao will KO Hatton with a left hook within 5." The reason was both brothers Matthew and Ricky Hatton lower their right hand when throwing a left hook to build momentum on the punch. I am not a Pacquiao hater; I have paid for many of his pay per view cards, and have been lucky enough to see him fight against Hatton in Las Vegas. I have also been on the edge of my seat watching his wars with Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales and Marquez. I appreciate him as a fighter.
Mayweather Jr., in my opinion, is the greatest all round boxer of all time. He has no weaknesses to expose, his defence can't be penetrated, his offensive accuracy can't be matched, his timing is so on point it is scary, and footwork is totally unorthodox and out of rhythm that it takes his opponents' timing away. His fighting brain is razor sharp, and the way he makes adjustments has never before been seen not to mention his hand speed and jab (the most important punch in boxing). Mayweather has one of the best jabs in the game; he sets up other shots with it he keeps his opponents off balance with it, and the way he finds his range so quickly is crazy.
I am not going to babble on about Mayweather's style because I'll be in danger of been called bias. What I will say is there is no weakness for an offensive-minded fighter like Pacquiao to expose; none whatsoever, as Saul "Canelo" Alvarez found out. I couldn't be so daft as to say Pacquiao could beat Mayweather based on styles, because that's ridiculous. Mayweather is unbeatable. Offensive fighters won't beat Mayweather. My opinion was this same opinion in 2010, and will always be the same Mayweather is far too superior to Pacquiao as a fighter he would box his ears off.
Mayweather is faster, smarter, sharper of the mind, more accurate, impenetrable defense, best counter puncher in the game, and most elusive. What more do you need to realize. This would be a mismatch. If any fans have a valid argument for why Pacquiao would give Mayweather trouble apart from "Pacquiao would pressure him more," I would like to hear your argument. I have been waiting for 4 years to hear a valid argument based on styles and boxing skills to why Pacquiao would win?
I believe if Pacquiao gets past Brandon Rios on November 23rd, the fight the boxing world should be asking for is Pacquiao vs. Canelo, but that's only if Canelo can still make 152lbs. I think that would be an exciting fight and I believe it would end with Pacman's lights out late on in the fight. The only fighters that would make an interesting fight with Mayweather, if they occupied the same weight class, would be Andre "SOG" Ward and Bernard Hopkins. I still believe Mayweather would beat both but it would be interesting as they all fight with brain rather than brawn. Final word on this article is "Brains always beat Brawn" every time.

Being Mike Tyson
Isn't Just About Boxing
DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. (September 18, 2013) — Since the much-anticipated launching of Iron Mike Productions last month, Hall of Famer and living legend "Iron" Mike Tyson has had a string of major media appearances, granting interviews to Fox Sports Live, Extra, the Today Show, and Conan O'Brien, where he spoke about his upcoming show, "Being Mike Tyson," as well as the current state of boxing. His recent return to the ring as a boxing promoter with Iron Mike Productions has also given him a lot to talk about, like the National Football League and which teams he believes are heading to the Super Bowl.Most boxing fans also enjoy watching football because of the inherent action and physicality of the two sports. They may remember the stencil art done by artist Joe Lurato a few years back of Peyton Manning and Tom Brady for a segment titled, "Quarterbacks of the Decade." Lurato's artwork has been featured on NFL broadcasts and Tyson has kept his eyes out for it because, in addition to being passionate about sports, Mike and his Iron Mike Productions business partner, Garry Jonas, are also passionate about art."Not only is this unique artwork beautiful," Tyson said, "it is also inspirational for our fighters as they train in the Iron Mike gym. Our goal is to give all our fighters everything they need to be their very best, physically and mentally, and this serves as another example of Iron Mike Productions' commitment to excellence on their behalf."
Tyson and Jonas, CEO of Iron Mike Productions, immediately thought of Lurato when they were building their state-of-the-art training facility in Deerfield Beach, Florida. They commissioned both Lurato and fellow New York stencil artist, Logan Hicks, to create amazing, larger-than life wall murals to inspire and provoke their fighters, capturing the range of emotions that happen inside the ring."The photo-realistic images have depth and move with the eye," Jonas explained. "They follow the fighters throughout the space, inspiring them and reminding them of why they are here and what they are training for."
Using layers of hand-cut paper, spray paint and stencils, both artists worked round-the-clock over one weekend to create an energized series of mixed-medium murals that echo the raw dynamism of the Iron Mike gym and capture the hope, struggle and desire that are at the heart of every fighter here.
The artists deliberately incorporated elements of urban street art to make the murals both visceral and refined to directly reflect the raw, gritty talent each of the fighters started with as they work to refine their skills and transform themselves into champions.Lurato's work has also been featured on ESPN as part of the "Art of Basketball" project, created by Billi Kid and Public Works Department, an organization that promotes street and graffiti artists and their work. Licensed by the NBA, the organization features a growing collection of NBA-themed original street artwork that tours the country. Lurato's contribution focused on the 2012 championship-winning Miami Heat.

Iron Mike Productions, previously Acquinity Sports, is a boxing promotion company co-founded and led by CEO Garry Jonas.

How Voguing Taught Ballroom Legend Leiomy Maldonado to Love Her Body
Sponsored Content By
"For me to see myself in the mirror now and actually see myself and not a blur, it means everything to me."
By Phillip Picardi
Last month, I hosted a panel at Nike's Flatiron store about what it means to exist at the intersection of "queer" and "athlete," all to honor the label's "BETRUE" collection, which is a part of the brand's ongoing contributions to LGBTQ+ organizations. The BETRUE collection supports the BETRUE Fund, administered by the Charities Aid Foundation America. Through the BETRUE Fund, Nike provides support to initiatives that work to advance equality in sport, including the You Can Play Project. (Since 2012, Nike has donated $2.7 million to community-affiliated charities. They will be announcing more organizations benefitting from the 2018 BETRUE collection this summer.) As a part of the chat, we were joined by Wade Davis, a former NFL player who's now consulting with various sports organizations to help end homophobia in sports; Kevin Carnell, an Insta-famous bodybuilder who just completed the epic AIDS/LifeCycle bike ride; Holly Rilinger, Nike Master Trainer and a celebrity personal trainer who's also been a part of the rise of Flywheel; and finally, Leiomy Maldonado, the ballroom queen who's vogued her way to music video sets with Rihanna and Willow Smith.
Leiomy's story, in particular, stuck out to me, because it was less about being an athlete, and more about how she learned to embrace her body. "When I first started dancing, I realized I was an athlete," she said. "But transitioning at a young age, the thing you most think about is femininity." Somehow, our society has tricked us into thinking those two things are at odds.
But Leiomy's career path has proven otherwise. She's vogued everywhere from the set of Rihanna's music videos to the Museum of Modern Art, and racked up millions of views last year for Nike's BETRUE campaign video. And what better time than now for her to claim her rightful place in the spotlight? With shows like My House and Pose doing tremendous work to celebrate both the reality and the legacy of the Balls, it's important to honor the trailblazers who made it to the mainstream of their own fierce determination, ambition, and (of course), raw talent. We listened, awestruck, as Leiomy described her rise — from getting chopped, to transitioning, to trademarking her own signature move, to working with celebrities, and then, finally ending up choreographing Pose. Here's some of her story:
I was about 14 or 15 going to Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club in the Bronx. There, I met someone who was trans, and she was my first mentor. Her name is Tiana. When I came across her, she wasn't showcasing her feminine side, more so, she'd just wear a big t-shirt and baggy clothes for work purposes. I saw her voguing in the kitchen, because that's where she worked. As soon as I saw her voguing, it spoke to me — it latched onto me. I just needed it. I just needed to know more about it. The next day, I [approached her] and said, "I saw you voguing the other day. What's that?" So she talked to me about the balls, and the competitions, and voguing. From there, I wanted to learn.

So I would go there every single day. And the reason why I'm as athletic of a dancer as I am now is because of her — she pushed me to be this daredevil! She'd be like, "Climb up on the stage over there and just jump off into a dip." There I was, 15 years old, like...."meow!" So for me, that's how I was introduced to voguing. She also gave me a VHS tape of all these clips of trans women voguing and battling it out. I'd sit and watch in my house like, "Oh My God, this world exists!" Here I am in my living room throwing myself across the room. My grandmother was like, in Spanish, "Mira niña, esta loca?" She thought I was crazy.
After that, I found my way to the Village with some friends. I found myself going to a nightclub called Club House in Harlem. I would go every single night at 8:45pm, 'cause you could get in for free. I was like 15, and I didn't even have an ID, but they let a girl through.
After that, I started competing. Even before then, I was going to the Hetrick-Martin Institute, which is an after-school program here in Manhattan. If it wasn't for HMI, I probably would have been done — in the sense that being trans 15 years ago was very, very, very hard. It still is to this day. There's a lot more acceptance, but there is a lot more work that needs to be done.
My family, they respected my transitioning, but they didn't understand it and didn't really support it. So, I chose to leave. At the time, I was living from house to house, trying to find ways to survive. If it wasn't for HMI, I would never have had that space where I felt safe. I would go to HMI every single day, and I would unleash all the frustrations that I had through voguing. It was my way of expression.
I used to have a nasty attitude when I was young, only because I didn't know who I was — I didn't know how to express my being a woman. It was hard coming across all these gay men, and you're primarily born male and showing signs of femininity, and everyone is pointing a finger at you, calling you a homosexual, and that's not what you are. Even the first time coming out to my family, I was there crying, and my family was like, "she's crying because she's coming out to us." To me, it was more like, "I'm crying because that's not who I am." And I never actually sat down and told my family that I was trans.
It was the summer, I remember it was 2004, and I left my house to stay with my aunt. My aunt's neighbor, her daughter had grown out of some clothes and they were going to throw them away, and then my aunt was like, "I see your truth. You can have these clothes. You can start off here. You can just wear the clothes in the house. Go outside around the way. As long as you're with family, you're good."
From there, I never looked back. I went back to my grandmother's house and I remember getting off the elevator and I'm presenting the woman that I am. Right before I get to the door, I thought I should take my bra off — just so I would at least have the clothes, but not the bra. Then I walk in, and my grandma's like, "if you're going to wear women's clothes, you might as well put on a bra." Then from there, it was like, "you know." I was able to find myself. If it wasn't for HMI, if it wasn't for voguing, I would not be able to say that I found life worth living.
But I found myself in voguing. At the balls, they would call me the "wild child." Before I came into the game, voguing was more about being feminine, dainty, and being more posey, classy, or elegant. There were people who were "voguing dramatics," which was more of a high-energy performance, but there was no one like Leiomy. It took a while, only because my being trans and being a woman dancing, they always emphasized, the "need to be feminine," and they'd say, "you're not feminine enough. You're too athletic. You shouldn't wear these things because of your muscles." For me, I would come out there and you're supposed to judge me based on my dance skills, and you're judging me based on my womanhood? That's something I had to deal with a lot within ballroom. It's so messed up that I had to deal with general society, and then come to a place where I thought it was supposed to be safe and a place of love and support, only to be disrespected by the people I felt should've most understood my journey.
But when you have a community that you're a part of that trashes you so much, it forces you to be this perfect dancer. And then you go outside of that world to people who have been studying, to people who have been going to these amazing schools, people who have been doing scholarships and studied and learned from all these amazing instructors. To come across people of that caliber who sit here and tell me that I'm one of the best dancers that they've ever witnessed? That's amazing. That alone keeps me humble.
After doing this campaign last year — it made me appreciate my body more. Now I see myself as more of an athlete. For me, honestly, I hated my body for 30 years of my life. And it wasn't until last year, in January, that I was able to finalize my personal transition step. That's when I finally felt like I could live. I stand in the mirror every f**king day, all day. Something like this, people don't understand. For me to see myself in the mirror now and actually see myself and not a blur, it means everything to me.
So with finding myself, I've realized how much time I spent and wasted hating myself. And I'm at a point now where self-love with me is helping people build confidence through dance or just helping people just find themselves, helping people just find ways to love themselves for things that they hate. I try to tell my kids to eat properly, to make sure that they sleep well, to make sure that they take care of their body, because we only get one body in our life. I also like to include myself in my kids' lives, and make sure they're doing good. And right now, my house is like 120 [people] worldwide. And I'm the only leader. I feel like it's important. It's important to be there for the youth and to show them that they matter.

I Am Not Your Negro, directed by Raoul Peck, is a haunting documentary that uses James Baldwin's words to narrate a powerful film about the nuances of race and class in America.
James Baldwin was a groundbreaking writer: Black, gay and unapologetic. He became a household name by the 1960s and even graced the cover of Time Magazine in 1963. His books like The Fire Next Time solidified him as a thought leader and political figure. With archival footage and Samuel L. Jackson narrating Baldwin's words, I Am Not Your Negro uses an incomplete manuscript from the Harlem native to tell a story that is frighteningly relevant today.
The manuscript focused on three of his friends who died tragically: Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. But this isn't just a doc about race and class. Baldwin's commentary is much more layered. His insight was and is heartbreaking, poignant and unforgettable. With pure cinematic magic, Peck delivered one of the best documentaries of the year.
Raoul Peck carefully and respectfully brought Baldwin to the big screen — a ten-year journey. This is not a typical doc on James Baldwin's life. There are no expert opinions. It's just James Baldwin. The Haitian filmmaker crafted a film as masterful as Baldwin's writing. Peck maintained the agency in Baldwin's words and narrative, using polished editing, eye-popping imagery and fitting music to skyrocket Baldwin's words. Peck told The Hollywood Reporter, "I didn't want anybody to interpret him, to speak for him. I wanted to be inside his head." Mission accomplished.
Each frame is so relevant, it's terrifying. It's as if James Baldwin rose from the grave, warning us of the horrors we've ignored and the horror that might be ahead. With Peck's direction, I Am Not Your Negro forces the audience to acknowledge the twisted gruesomeness of racism. But the film is not as simple as Black versus white. There is a nuance and complexity you must see to fully understand. The movie is advocacy on screen, warning us of social dangers and a "kingdom decline." No matter your background, you will be moved by I Am Not Your Negro. In one of the chilling final lines, Baldwin states, "This is not the land of the free, it is only very unwilling and sporadically the home of the brave."
I Am Not Your Negro is playing in select cities.

Def Leppard's Joe Elliott Reassures Fans
Friday, August 24th, 2012 11:30am
Fans concerns allayed after Joe's voice appeared to be struggling on tour
Def Leppard unusually didn't perform an encore in Saratoga on Monday leading some worried fans to speculate that there was a wider problem. However, Joe has issued a statement explaining what happened.
"OK, just to nip in the bud any Twitter/Facebook rumours you may have read regarding our recent (August 20th) performance at Saratoga Springs where the band didn't do an encore, here's the deal...
"After the Boston gig (August 18th), which was the 1st show on the whole tour where it was actually cold afterwards, I caught a hacking cough which just ripped the hell out of my voice. Despite all the usual stuff singers do such as lemon tea, steam, etc. it just wasn't going to heal overnight, but with sufficient rest & plenty of warming up I thought I might manage to do the following show in Saratoga Springs. I was tough and I was ploughing through it as best I could but by the time we got to 'Photograph', there was barely anything left in the tank & it was starting to hurt, so I decided after struggling through 'Sugar' that I had to make a decision... do the encore & risk doing so much damage that we might have to cancel a bunch of shows, or blow out one song & sort out a doctor to have a look at me, which we did the following morning.
"The result being after a couple of cortisone shots, I seem to be mending quite nicely!! The cough has gone, & the gig in Bangor, Maine on Wednesday night (August 22nd) albeit challenging, was a big improvement & with today being a day off it's a perfect opportunity for me to rest up & address this issue which seems to have a few people unduly worried about my health!!
"In most occupations a cough doesn't really affect your ability to work—not so for people who use their voice for a living!! I've had a couple of tough gigs, it's happened before & no doubt it'll happen again, but for now, I'm OK, the tour will roll on, we will ALL give our all, as we do every night, & we move on.
"Thank you to all of you who have publicly & privately supported me on this..."
Def Leppard's tour with Poison and Lita Ford continues tonight at Klipsch Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana
(Bravewords)


This is the 21st century. This is the era when rapid development has taken place in a number of fields such as writing, science, art, technology, literature, culture and so on and so forth. However, another key area where the mindsets of the masses have been able to progress a little ahead from where they were, is gender equality. This does not mean that there are illogical arguments such as why should only women be able to give birth to child or anything this trivial. I am talking about the bigger pictures. That is, women have now been able to establish that they too can work outside their homes, manage everything well and also have the power and ability to become world leaders.
Location: The very first consideration that women need to make when they are going for a job is the location. This means that the job may either be from the office or home based. If it is from the office, then there is a possibility that the office may be at quite some distance from your residence. Thus, it is not practical to say yes for a job which requires you to travel from one end of the city to another each day. In fact, at times, you may even need to switch cities. Thus, always find out about the available flat options, safety issues of the city and if you are willingly to move out and accept change. After all, it is not easy to leave behind the comfort of your home.
Pay: Secondly, the pay is the reason why you are doing a job at all. This is why you must be sure of what they are going to give you at the end of each month. Be clear about the work and the load that they expect from you. It is always recommended that you decide by weighing the pros and cons. Give the green signal and sign the appointment letter only if you fell that you are being paid well enough for your services. Though you may not be fully satisfied, but at least 70% of your expectations should be met.
Boss and staff: You must always be sure to observe the behavior of the staff and your boss while you go for the interview. No matter how many campaigns are started or petitions are signed on Facebook, the world is still a very dangerous place. The crime rates have only been increasing in the world. Thus, you must be sure that you get only good vibes. No money is more important than your well-being.
Conveyance: Lastly, you must know how you are to commute to your office every day. If it is the public transport, then make a timely schedule. If the office is providing pick and drops services, then you just need to be ready on time.

Q: AAR files uploaded to wrong path with Bintray multi-module project I have a multi-module Android project and I'm trying to upload the files to Bintray for distribution via jCenter.
group = 'co.chatsdk.chatsdk'
version = '4.0.0'

ext {
  bintrayRepo = 'chat-sdk-android'
  bintrayName = 'chat-core'
  bintrayUserOrg = 'chat-sdk'

  publishedGroupId = 'co.chatsdk.chatsdk'
  libraryName = 'ChatSDKCore'
  artifact = 'chat-core'

  libraryDescription = 'Chat SDK Core library for Android'

  siteUrl = 'https://chatsdk.co'
  gitUrl = 'https://github.com/chat-sdk/chat-sdk-android.git'

  libraryVersion = '4.0.0'

  developerId = 'bensmiley'
  developerName = 'Ben Smiley-Andrews'
  developerEmail = 'ben@chatsdk.co'

  licenseName = 'Chat SDK License'
  licenseUrl = 'https://chatsdk.co/chat-sdk-license/'
  allLicenses = ['GPL-3.0']
}

apply from: 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chat-
sdk/JCenter/master/installv1.gradle'
apply from: 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chat-
sdk/JCenter/master/bintrayv1.gradle'

This is my build script. The problem is that when I run bintrayUpload the resulting upload looks like this:
chat-core/
    /4.0.0/
       chat-core-4.0.0.pom
       chat-core-4.0.0.pom.asc
    /maven-metadata.xml

chat_sdk_core/
    /4.0.0/
        chat_sdk_core-4.0.0-sources.jar
        chat_sdk_core-4.0.0-sources.jar.asc
        chat_sdk_core-4.0.0.aar
        chat_sdk_core-4.0.0.aar.asc

So it looks like the Bintray plugin is assuming that the name for the source code should be taken as the module name rather than the one specified.

Linux Lite 4.4 Final is now available for download and installation.
We have moved from Sourceforge distributed servers to OSDN as OSDN will help to finance our project. Their systems and mirror choices are virtually similar.
RC1 was a solid release where no hiccups were reported. As such, this 4.4 Final is basically the RC1 with only the wallpaper changed. Therefore, if you have 4.4 RC1 installed but want the Final, RC1 IS the Final. One caveat, since there were no updates to the build from RC1 to Final, your first updates will be a big one.
There is no upgrade path to or from Beta or RC releases.
Login is automatic, no credentials are required. The image can be written to a 2gb or larger USB stick, or a writable DVD. Alternatively, you can use the dd command: sudo dd if=linux-lite-4.4-64bit.iso of=/dev/sdx bs=4M where 'x' is the letter of your usb stick. In linux to find out the letter of your usb stick, open a terminal and type: df -h It is usually listed as 'media' or similar. Please see the built in Help Manual if you require a more detailed explanation of this procedure.
Upgraded without problems, thanks. Among the many advantages of Lite, many of us get to live in the future at upgrade time.
Just installed on my VM to test it out.
Upgraded it from 4.2 to 4.4 without a hitch.
It seems a lot snappier than 4.2 so far.
Just did the update on my laptop and so far so good.
The major issue I had previously was when I connected it into its hp docking station and closed the lid sometimes it would not turn on immediately on the external screen. So far so good now.
Updated laptop and all running without problems.
Did image backups of my partitions, and got ready for the upgrade.
Upgrade completed in less than 4 minutes.
All working smooth and fast, as usual.
Thank you, Jerry and Team.
PS: The double-volume control is still up there on my top right corner.
Replaced LL2.6 on my partners laptop with LL4.4. I think it's a great improvement and she should really like it.
As you'll see in the announcement, double-volume control was not passed into the Upgrade. To fix, Menu, Session and Startup, Application Autostart, XFCE Volume Daemon - untick.
Yes, Jerry, I found that; but it's not v4.4. So no UEFI version of 4.4 yet. Any chance you know timeframe on when it might be built?
For those of you saying you just did the Upgrade to 4.4, please remember to update your Forum Profile to show that you are now running Linux Lite 4.4. Ironically, that goes for you, too @Jerry .

VANESSA KIRBY ON AN IMPOSSIBLE MISSION IN "HOBBS & SHAW"
The women of the Fast & Furious franchise have repeatedly proven themselves to be as accomplished, dedicated and resilient as their male counterparts.
That commitment to strong female characters would become a cornerstone for Universal Pictures' Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw with the casting of Vanessa Kirby (Mission: Impossible – Fallout, Netflix's The Crown) as Hattie Shaw, a highly capable, badass MI6 agent who sets the plot of the film in motion and whose bravery and commitment to her duty is peerless.
(Watch the film's new spot at https://youtu.be/e9ETo9xccsc.)
When we first meet her, Hattie is leading a team sent to recover "The Unicorn," a mysterious vial that contains a lethal pathogen that, when weaponized, could wipe out half the global population. But Hattie and her team are ambushed by a cybernetically enhanced Brixton Lorr (Idris Elba). Now, sworn enemies Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) and Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) will have to partner up to bring down the only guy who might be badder than themselves.
In Kirby, the filmmakers found an actress who could anchor the antics between Hobbs and Shaw, which run from hilarious to downright deadly and embody (literally) the very real stakes for herself and the planet. "Vanessa Kirby is an incredible actress," director David Leitch says. "I had no doubt that we could put her through the training and draw out the physicality of Hattie. What she brings in her acting is the ability to be strong but then vulnerable and stoic and then emotional, and it's all authentic. An actress of her caliber helps to ground our lighter moments and make the stakes feel real."
For Kirby, Leitch was a dream director, who advocated for Hattie to be as capable, if not more, than Hobbs or Shaw. "What I love about Dave's vision is that he has always been adamant that Hattie is as strong and tough as Hobbs and Shaw, and that she was as much of a fighter," Kirby says. "She doesn't need saving; she joins the guys as equals. I think it's important for young girls in the audience to see women can save the world, too. So, I felt that was my responsibility, to give Hattie that added toughness."
Hattie's heroism will also force a reunion, and ultimately a reconciliation, with her long-estranged brother, Deckard Shaw. Their relationship is complicated and strained, at best. Hattie had distanced herself from Shaw after he "went dark," when rumors surfaced that Shaw had become a mercenary. Now, their mother is in prison, and the siblings haven't spoken in years.
In Philippine cinemas July 31, Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw is distributed by United International Pictures through Columbia Pictures.

ALLIGATOR FUN FACTS "CRAWL" THEIR WAY OUT TO SCARE

Finding him gravely injured in the crawl space of their family home, the two become trapped by quickly encroaching floodwaters. As time runs out to escape the strengthening storm, Haley and her father discover that the rising water level is the least of their fears.

Christopher Redner, founder of Children In Need, is an award-winning producer and journalist. He has visited dozens of child sponsorship projects around the world. He's seen the transformation that child sponsorship can facilitate.
"I've met thousands of children whose lives were better because they had child sponsors," Redner says. "These children received life-saving aid, education, skills training and so much more. But sponsorship is more than just giving physical aid. When a child discovers she has a sponsor from another country, it sends her a message that she is important.
"I've visited with so many children who had saved the cards and letters they have received from their sponsors. Many of those children told me they often pray for their sponsors and thank God for the blessings their families have received because they are sponsored."
Redner has encouraged thousands of people to sponsor children through concert tours, events, media interviews and the Children In Need Reports. He created World Week and developed the Dads Who Serve campaign.
"You can change a child's life today by sponsoring a child through Compassion or World Vision." Redner says. "World Vision and Compassion are excellent charities with good reputations for providing excellent care. I've sponsored numerous children through both organizations. I've seen their child sponsorship programs at work and I can recommend them wholeheartedly."
Child sponsorship allows you to connect with a specific child in need and make a profound difference in that child's life, family and community. Your sponsored child will know your name, write to you and receive benefits like clean water, nutritious food, healthcare and educational opportunities. Sponsor a child through World Vision or Compassion.
Watch FamilyNet's "At Home Live" interview with Christopher Redner. Call 253.874.8400 to have Christopher Redner speak to your group.
Children In Need is dedicated to raising awareness and understanding of issues that impact children. We hope to encourage people to help and support children in need.
