☆ I quit my corporate job after it felt like nobody was talking about police shootings of Black men. Now I run a nonprofit working to end police violence.

This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Tansy McNulty, the founder of 1 Million Madly Motivated Moms, or 1M4. McNulty left the corporate world to start 1M4 to end police violence by 2038. As I was bringing this Black child — a Black boy — into the world, I wanted to create a safer future for him. So I took those skills I learned in corporate America, and I applied them to what I do now with 1 Million Madly Motivated Moms, or 1M4. We don't tell the families what accountability looks like.

☆ How Miuccia Prada Reinvented Fashion
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-19 | by ( Nick Haramis | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +111 min

A few seasons earlier, for Miu Miu’s spring 2022 collection, Prada delivered raw-edge chino micro-miniskirts belted below the hip bone. Firstview (8); courtesy of Prada PRADA STILL resides in the Milanese apartment where she and her two older siblings, Marina and Alberto, grew up. In 1993, her days of on-the-ground protest behind her — she’d long stopped handing out flyers at rallies — Prada and Bertelli created Milano Prada Arte, which later became the Fondazione Prada.

☆ Henry Taylor’s ‘B Side’ Is Full of Grade-A Paintings
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-17 | by ( Roberta Smith | More About Roberta Smith | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

As long as there are artists like Henry Taylor around, painting is in little danger of dying. That is because Taylor, like most great painters, has reinvented the medium for his own purposes, reshaped it to his own particular needs. Those needs seem complex, encompassing and exceptionally empathetic. They are those of an ambitious artist attempting to give as full an account as he can of Black life in America, starting with his own, and spiraling out to family, friends and fellow artists (some of whom are white) as well as Black figures from politics and culture, and urgent issues like incarceration and racial violence. In “Henry Taylor: B Side,” a thrilling survey at the Whitney Museum, you will see paintings of the artist watching his toddler daughter feed herself; Barack and Michelle Obama sitting cozy on a couch; Philando Castile dying in his car after being shot by a Minneapolis policeman; a self-portrait based on a 16th-century portrait of King Henry V in profile wearing royal regalia; and the great Chuck Berry performing for a group of slightly dazed-looking white teenagers.

REUTERS/Susana Vera Acquire Licensing RightsMADRID, Sept 4 (Reuters) - A few subway lines in Madrid and high-speed train connections with southern cities were closed on Monday morning and two men were missing after torrential rain hit central Spain. Several roads in the Madrid region were closed as half a dozen bridges were torn down by water overflowing the riverbanks. The sudden torrential rain that hit the country transformed streets into rivers in Madrid, Castile, Catalonia and Valencia regions. Several subway lines were closed in the centre of Madrid on Monday morning. Some high-speed connections between Madrid and Andalusia region, in southern Spain, resumed later on Monday, but trains were operating at lower-than-normal speeds.

Moving through the darkened holds of a replica of Christopher Columbus’s ship, visitors on a recent afternoon marveled at the tangle of compasses, cordage and barrels. At last, a voice shouted “Land!” and the white sands of America appeared. May it be for the greater glory of God,” Columbus was then heard telling Queen Isabella I of Castile. The popularity of the park has come as a surprise in a country that has long been shy about celebrating its history. Nationalist sentiments were largely taboo after the dictatorship of Gen. Francisco Franco, who died in the 1970s.

Today the Spanish language is the fourth-most-spoken language in the world, and it is the most common language spoken in the United States after English. Then there is the Mexican population that lived here long before the United States claimed their land. Each wave infused American Spanish with local flavor. That’s partly because the language spoken in each country has unique characteristics, at the national and the regional level. American Spanish features all of these elements, which depend on the national background and geographic location of the speaker.

MADRID, May 5 (Reuters) - Spain's Supreme Court upheld a four-year prison sentence and a 24-million-euro ($26.44 million) fine handed down to a local businessman for environmental damage caused while operating an open-cast coal mine in northern Spain. The court said the mine's activity damaged more than 400 hectares of land and that Alonso made no effort to repair it. Alonso, in a previous court hearing, had said he had not been aware of the extent of the damage caused by his company. Coto Minero Cantabrico was previously known as Minero Siderurgica de Ponferrada.

☆ Spain's Constitutional Court rules in favour of 13-year-old abortion law
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-09 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

MADRID, Feb 9(Reuters) - Spain's Constitutional Court on Thursday upheld a 13-year-old law that allows women to abort on demand within the first 14 weeks of pregnancy, after the divisive issue resurfaced following a regional far-right party's effort to limit abortion access. "The Abortion Law is constitutional," Equality Minister Irene Montero said on Twitter, adding that "never again will 13 years go by in which a single women's right is questioned". Since the abortion law was passed, there was a failed attempt to restrict rights in 2014 by the conservative government of Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy. The proposal caused a big turmoil, with the central government threatening to step in if the region restricted women's rights. Women's rights are back under the international spotlight after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to terminate pregnancies in 2022.

Conform celei de-a doua legi a termodinamicii, pe măsură ce înaintăm pe axa timpului spre viitor, nivelul entropiei dintr-un sistem creşte. Pe aşa-numita "săgeată a timpului", entropia este mereu mai mică în trecut şi întotdeauna mai mare în viitor. Maşinăriile, aşa cum sunt şi ceasurile, produc entropie sub formă de căldură pe care o disipează în mediul înconjurător. Acest lucru înseamnă să trebuie să investeşti în producţia de entropie", a adăugat ea. Cert este că, susţin oamenii de ştiinţă, ceasurile cu cât produc mai multă entropie, cu atât funcţionează cu mai multă precizie.

Purtarea îndelungată a măștii totuși creează disconfort pentru om, iar acest lucru poate duce la scoaterea măștii și la creșterea riscului de infectare sau răspândirii virusului. Echipa #diez a creat o listă de avantaje a purtării măștii în această perioadă extrem de periculoasă. Purtarea corectă a măștii reduce considerabil răspândirea virusului, asta dacă persoana este purtătoare de virus.

Diferența majoră este că aparatul de mai jos există și îl poți cumpăra, dar a fost creat de Belkin, nu de către Apple.
