Alexander: Is diminished USC-UCLA game another reminder of what we’ve lost?

Energy Drink Company Curated Art Basel Rubbish, Selling Pieces of Art For A Good Cause MIAMI , Dec. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lucky Energy , known for its full-flavor, deliciously refreshing energy drinks, kicked off its first-ever Art Basel appearance with an unforgettable activation that was as trashy as it was inspiring. Dubbed "Trashy Art," the activation featured models picking up garbage outside the Miami Beach Convention Center on days 1 and 2 of the art fair. The brand curated 30-40 pieces of this rubbish and sold them on ArtBaselTrash.com . All pieces went on sale for $13 - typically an unlucky number, but the brand finds that the most unlucky moments encourage us to "create our own luck." Proceeds of the sale will go towards DonorChoose. "Lucky Energy is a beverage and entertainment company that draws inspiration from pop art and fashion, so showing up in this format at Art Basel is an important milestone for us," said Lucky Energy Founder and CEO Richard Laver . Our "Talking Trash" initiative is a unique expression of our brand identity - it challenges conventional thinking and encourages deeper reflection. We believe it will resonate with our audience, who appreciate our delicious beverages, humor, and charm. Developed by Lucky Energy's in-house team, the website sold tickets to a Miami Heat Game, an unopened can of Lucky Energy Drink with lipstick on the rim, a long piece of black hair (rumored to belong to a famous sister that was once married to a rapper), an empty can of Redbull and more. "As the saying goes, 'art is art is art.' Art exists as its own entity, regardless of definition. With this insight, we ask, why can't trash fall into that category if everything is Art?" said Hamid Saify , CMO of Lucky Energy. "Our depiction of Art was designed to spark conversation and curiosity. As a brand, rethinking cultural norms is in our DNA. When told we can't or shouldn't, we are inspired to prove otherwise. We aim to instill that same 'can do' attitude and motivation in people, giving them the fuel they need to keep going. To make their own luck. This is why we are committed to supporting social causes, with the proceeds of "Trashy Art"' and an additional donation to funding a Miami -based kid's art program through DonorsChoose." Richard Laver founded Lucky Energy after experiencing tragic lows and dizzying heights; he launched the company to inspire people to persevere and keep going as he learned to do. He's the youngest survivor of the Delta 191 flight that killed his father and 136 others. After surviving the crash at just 12 years old, Laver suffered from depression and was homeless by 27. He eventually found the love of his life, Michelle, but during the premature birth of their first child, Kate, she was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and would need a feeding tube for nourishment. Through a medley of medical complications, he founded Kate Farms (now the #1 recommended plant-based tube-feeding formula) to save her life. In thinking about his next chapter, Laver landed on creating a cleaner alternative to the energy drinks on the market.

Matt Gaetz appears to be the newest ex-member of Congress to hit the social platform Cameo, and it has its CEO talking about the Congress-to- Cameo pipeline. Sharing his thoughts on Gaetz and his fellow politicians making themselves available for personalized videos to their fans for a few hundred dollars a pop, Cameo chief executive Steven Galanis disputed the notion that it was too soon after his doomed nomination for Gaetz to join Cameo. “It’s important to strike while the iron is hot, when you’re having your moment,” Galanis told the New York Times for a report published Monday. “That’s when it’s going to resonate most with your fans.” ALSO READ: The America-attacking Trump is coming for our military — and then he's coming for us Donald Trump , a former reality TV star, brought his brash style to politics — and that in turn fueled other politicians to steal a page from his playbook. Galanis said. Former Rep. George Santos , former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich and, most recently, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CA), have all joined Cameo, as has Roger Stone and Donald Trump Jr., the Times noted. “They all became more famous because Trump is famous,” Galanis told the publication. Santos, the disgraced and ousted Long Island congressman, set records for having the platform’s biggest first day, week and month, according to the report. He was recording 90 videos a day. Cameo helps politicians “humanize themselves,” Santos told the Times. He predicted Gaetz would likely do well on the site and offered some words of wisdom for his former congressional colleague. “Have a personality,” Santos said. “Just have a personality.”None

Hundreds of people have staged a demonstration in Dublin in “utter solidarity” with Nikita Hand, who won a civil case against MMA fighter Conor McGregor. Ms Hand, who accused Mr McGregor of raping her in a Dublin hotel in December 2018, won her claim against him for damages in a civil case at the High Court in the capital on Friday. Advertisement She was described as “incredibly brave” and celebrated for “standing up for survivors” of assault by those who attended the demonstration in Dublin. Mr McGregor has said in social media posts that he intends to appeal against the decision. Monday’s protest march was organised by the socialist feminist movement group Rosa to mark the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.

The demonstration was bookended by speeches from attendees including organisers Ruth Coppinger, a councillor and general election candidate for People Before Profit in Dublin West, and Natasha O’Brien, who became a national figure in activism on violence against women after a soldier received a suspended sentence for assaulting her. Ms Coppinger told the crowd that Ms Hand, who she characterised as “an incredibly brave woman”, was watching live video of the event remotely.

She said the “overwhelming support of the Irish public is definitely with Nikita”. Advertisement On a cold night in Dublin, Ms O’Brien was cheered as she told those gathered that she was “in awe” of Ms Hand’s courage. She said Ireland let out a collective “sigh of relief” after the jury in the civil case found in favour of Ms Hand in her case against Mr McGregor. Advertisement “But, for me – it was a split second because in came all these questions flooding in: Why did Nikita have to fight alone?” She added: “This really hits home for me, it is like a kick in the guts.” She said she had cried “so many tears” over the weeks of the trial. Ms O’Brien said Ms Hand had refused to be ignored. Women take part in a solidarity demonstration in Dublin (Cillian Sherlock/PA) Mr McGregor had faced an accusation that he “brutally raped and battered” Ms Hand at a hotel in south Dublin in December 2018. The Irish sports star previously told the court he had consensual sex with Ms Hand in a penthouse at the Beacon Hotel. Ms Hand was taken in an ambulance to the Rotunda Hospital the following day when she was assessed in the sexual assault treatment unit (SATU). A paramedic who examined Ms Hand the day after the assault had told the court she had not seen “someone so bruised” in a long time. Ms Hand broke down several times as she gave evidence for almost three days and sought a number of breaks. The jury had been told Ms Hand had to leave her job as a hairdresser and has not been able to work since, because of her mental health, that her relationship with her partner ended months after the incident, she had to move out of her home in Drimnagh, and her mortgage is now in arrears. After eight days of evidence and three days listening to closing speeches and the judge’s charge, the jury of eight women and four men spent six hours and 10 minutes deliberating before returning their verdict. The total amount of damages awarded to Ms Hand by the jury was €248,603.60. Speaking outside court on Friday, Ms Hand said she hoped her case would remind victims of assault to keep “pushing forward for justice”. She added: “I hope my story is a reminder that no matter how afraid you might be, speak up, you have a voice and keep on fighting for justice.”
