Damon Landor is a Rastafarian. When he started a five-month prison term for drug possession in Louisiana, his dreadlocks fell nearly to his knees. Mr. Landor was wary of the state’s prison system, and he kept a copy of a 2017 judicial decision with him. He presented a copy of the 2017 decision to a guard, who threw it in the trash. After consulting the warden, two guards handcuffed Mr. Landor to a chair, held him down and shaved his head to the scalp.

Why can’t we stop calling X, Twitter?

While some people (mainly fans of Musk) have embraced the X brand, most have not. Many people, both online and in person, still call the platform Twitter, and refer to posts as tweets. WHY ARE WE STILL CALLING THIS PLATFORM TWITTER. Even when you do see X, it's framed as "X, formerly Twitter". So the brand is what they say it is… it’s not that customers can’t stop calling it Twitter, it’s that they won’t.”

Why Calvin Klein ads still get people talking

The strategy was classic Calvin Klein, a brand which has been synonymous with sexy, conversation-starting campaigns since the 1970s. From Calvin KleinBut the White ads were just the start of the headlines for Calvin Klein. Adorning a New York City phonebooth, Mark Wahlberg is seen in a 1992 Calvin Klein campaign. Meanwhile, no one besides the ASA seems to be admonishing Calvin Klein over the FKA Twigs ads. For Calvin Klein, both sets of ads are an example of that old adage — there’s no such thing as bad publicity.

And now she is getting new life in “Barbie” the movie, distributed by CNN’s parent company Warner Bros. And at HomBom Toys in New York City, ‘movie Barbie’ is sold out. I thought of every child who played with a Barbie doll as my child. She’s thrilled to see Barbie break out of Barbie Land and out of her heels, a sign Barbie may be keeping up with the times. And that introduced a lot of fun and introduced I think people into the world of Barbie that hadn’t been there before,” she said.

They will discuss the challenges facing their businesses as inflation causes consumers in Europe and elsewhere to reduce spending. The European Commission is drawing up new rules on textile waste that will make companies responsible for managing the waste their products create. Decathlon, the world's biggest sporting goods retailer, sells repair services, spare parts and tools for people to repair their own bicycles, tents, and kayaks. Retailers are working with local authorities ahead of an EU law that will require member states to separately collect textile waste by Jan. 1, 2025. Firms including Decathlon, Mango, Inditex, and IKEA recently created an association in Spain for the management of textile waste.

[1/4] Members of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) stand guard outside a building housing BBC offices, where income tax officials are conducting a search for a second day, in New Delhi, India, February 15, 2023. REUTERS/Altaf HussainNEW DELHI, Feb 16 (Reuters) - Indian tax officials examined mobile phones and laptops used by some BBC editorial and administrative employees, two sources told Reuters, as an inspection at the British broadcaster's offices in New Delhi and Mumbai entered a third day on Thursday. Tax officials had remained at the BBC's offices, some sleeping there, since the surprise inspection was launched on Tuesday, according to witnesses. A second source gave a similar account. The BBC has stood by its reporting, which investigated one of the worst outbreaks of religious violence in India during the modern era.
[1/5] Police officers stand outside a building having BBC offices, where income tax officials are conducting a search, in New Delhi, India, February 14, 2023. The government last month dismissed the documentary, "India: The Modi Question", as propaganda and blocked its streaming and sharing on social media. The BBC has stood by its reporting for the documentary and said it was cooperating with Indian tax officials. The tax survey relates to transfer pricing rules and alleged diversion of profits. India's Income Tax Department has so far declined to comment on the reason for the search.
‘I became insane,”Edgar Allan Poe wrote in an 1848 letter, “with long intervals of horrible sanity.” Which is not a bad description of director Scott Cooper ’s “The Pale Blue Eye,” adapted from the 2003 novel by Louis Bayard and set amid the macabre, rime-frosted Hudson Valley of 1830s New York—and the then-fledgling U.S. Military Academy at West Point. On the grounds, with a river view, a cadet has been found hanging and presumed to be a suicide. After the dead boy’s heart is cut out and stolen—a telltale sign that something more grisly is afoot—the cause of death is reassessed. Called in to help solve the crime—and, more importantly, derail a scandal—is Augustus Landor ( Christian Bale ), a much-respected former “constable” in New York City whose résumé, recited by the academy’s Superintendent Thayer (Timothy Spall) for no one’s benefit but ours, is illustrious: A retired detective instrumental in bringing down the Daybreak Boys, Shirt Tails and other gangs of New York, Landor developed methods of “bloodless interrogation” and solved the murder of a young woman at Elysian Fields, the now-long-defunct recreational area in Hoboken, N.J., that served as a playground for Manhattanites. The murder would later serve as the inspiration for one of Poe’s C. Auguste Dupin stories, “The Mystery of Marie Rogêt .” But where is Poe?
