June 30 (Reuters) - Constellation Brands (STZ.N) first-quarter results topped Wall Street expectations on Friday, as the Corona beer maker benefited from higher pricing and steady demand for its alcoholic beverages. Constellation’s beer business posted an 11% increase in sales in the quarter ended May 31, mainly on strong growth across Modelo Especial, the Modelo Chelada brands as well as Corona Extra. Modelo Especial dethroned Anheuser-Busch InBev's (ABI.BR) Bud Light as the top selling beer in the U.S. in June after the latter faced backlash over a social media promotion with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. Constellation net sales rose more than 6% to $2.52 billion, beating analysts' average estimate of $2.47 billion, according to Refinitiv IBES data. The company's first-quarter profit of $2.91 per share beat analysts' average estimate of $2.83 as per IBES data from Refinitiv.

“It’s a love letter to that time — a collection of some of the pictures I am most fond of,” Le Gouès said in a phone interview from Paris, where he is based. Thierry Le Gouès/Courtesy powerHouse BooksMost of the photos appeared in magazine spreads or fashion campaigns, which were Le Gouès’ main outlets at the time. Thierry Le Gouès/Courtesy powerHouse BooksIndeed, Le Gouès’ images are strikingly dramatic. “The ‘90s was a decade of experimentation, and that’s what I did when it came to my photos,” Le Gouès said. The other was Kate Moss, whose gold-painted portrait eventually ended up gracing the front of “90’s.” Le Gouès shot the image for British Esquire.

☆ More than 100 U.S. political elites have family links to slavery

Then the war came, and according to the family history, Union soldiers plundered Sessions’ 27-room house. About 48 years old at the time, he did not stand a chance to succeed without slavery, the family history suggests. ‘A Better Nation’Some historians and genealogists say there is a valuable reason for white leaders – and other white Americans – to explore their links to slavery. Nicka Sewell-Smith, a professional genealogist with the family history website Ancestry.com, said people frequently ask her what to do with such documents. The top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Meeks said in an interview that he has spent years trying to trace his family history back before 1870.

☆ Should the U.S. government pay reparations for slavery and its legacy?

The poll found that 74% of Black Americans favor reparations compared to just 26% of white Americans. A divided America Views on whether the U.S. government should provide some form of reparations for slavery and its legacy are split along party and racial lines. They also say it’s wrong to have taxpayers finance reparations, given that no one alive today is responsible for slavery. In April 2021, Gohmert went on the attack by proposing an amendment calling for the Democratic Party to pay for reparations. In the slavery era, the Democratic Party supported slavery; the Republican Party, led by Abraham Lincoln, called for slavery’s restriction and eventually abolished it.

☆ The CEO of an Eyebrow Empire on Her Biggest Beauty Mistake
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-15 | by ( Lane Florsheim | ) www.wsj.com time to read: 1 min

She is still responsible for some of the most famous brows in the world, including those of Kim Kardashian, Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey.
