During Mental Health Awareness Month, 17-Year-Old Memphis Singer/Songwriter, Brooke Fair, Releases Her Single, "Suck It Up"

Moore Media | Tanya Moore

Award-winning Memphis singer/ songwriter, Brooke Fair, releases her single “ Suck It Up,” and video from her forthcoming album, “The Things We Were,” which releases on May 20th. The inspiration for the track came to fruition when Brooke was stuck with feelings of not fitting into social norms. She carried on with a brave smile, telling everyone that she was fine when she was not. Brooke wrote the song, “Suck It Up,” as an anthem for those who suffer from depression, and for those who feel invisible. She hopes this song will evoke conversation among adolescents, their parents, and the school systems, and inspire more conversations about mental health, the feelings tweens and teens go through, and the challenges that arise throughout those tender years, especially when feeling alienated. “This is an important time with Mental Health Awareness Month, and a very important song to me, as I too have had my bouts of depression and anxiety. We need to be mindful of others' feelings and be there for one another. We can be kinder, gentler, and lend an ear when needed. Growing into adulthood, and just being human, is not always easy, but it’s worth it. Together we can get through the tough times, with more community and conversation,” says Brooke. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzaLdHW9HCc&feature=youtu.be CLICK ON THE VIDEO ABOVE TO WATCH “SUCK IT UP” SAVE/LISTEN/PURCHASE "SUCK IT UP”: https://brookefair.lnk.to/suckitup PRE-ORDER/PRE-ADD THE ALBUM: https://brookefair.lnk.to/ttww Her exquisite storytelling and the depth of her vocals exhibit a sweet, and raw innocence reminiscent of a past era. Her voice resembles the likes of singer Taylor Swift-meets-Dodie Clark. Brooke, an advocate for mental health, sings her tender lyrics, exposing a pressing issue among tweens, teens, and adults alike. She writes, “No one understands, it’s getting out of hand, how lonely that I feel each night // Voices in my head scream, no one really wants me, but everyone thinks I’m alright // Suck it up, hold your breath, I’m fine // Smile now, so they think you shine // Dry your tears, so they won’t see you lie // Suck it up, hold your breath, it’s fine.” The upcoming album is produced by Matt Tutor (Derek Trucks, Eric Gales, Kenny Wayne Shepherd) and Chris Carter (Kirk Franklin, Chrisette Miller, Marcus Miller, and Jekalyn Carr), and is a follow-up to her 2018 6-track EP titled, “All Queens Wear Crowns,” with her track, “Love Songs On Loop,” garnering over 100,000 Spotify plays. “Universe,” and “I Can’t Breathe,” produced by Justin Timberlake’s guitarist/producer Elliott Ives and Scott Hardin, followed the EP. Brooke boasts an impressive collection of songwriting awards, being named Songwriter of the Year, by the Memphis Songwriters Association, along with a finalist in the International Songwriting Competition, as well as a top finalist in The John Lennon Songwriting Contest. Her last single, “ First Love,” from the forthcoming album, “The Things We Were” was released on April 01st, and garnered international attention by winning “ Outstanding Achievement in Songwriting,” in the Adult Contemporary category of The Great American Song Contest. “I wrote “ Suck It Up,” at a time when I felt entirely alone. When I tried to communicate with adults, it seemed I wasn’t taken seriously. I was told to let it go, smile, and suck it up, and that is what inspired me to write the song,” says Brooke. The album is being released and distributed globally by Zojak World Wide.

Web3 Solidity Engine, tEVM 2.0 - Ahead of Schedule

Telos Foundation

As the Goliaths of crypto continuously crash ( Solana ), fail to deliver ( Ethereum ), or live in their white papers ( Cardano ), David ( Telos ) continues to defy them all and over-deliver. The Telos story is very much a David vs. Goliath story. Why? Because Telos is tens and even hundreds of billions of dollars smaller than its peers in market cap, yet still manages to significantly lead them in speed, costs, true capacity, credible neutrality, front running protection, fair governance, and energy efficiency ( Net Zero ). The tEVM Version 1.0's capabilities are already a quantum leap ahead of its peers and are clearly demonstrated in this video. Now, less than a year later, version 2.0 is set to elevate the tEVM's performance further. Jesse Schulman (Lead Architect and TCO), alongside Kersten Wirth (Program Manager), will be providing detailed insights into the development of Telos EVM 2.0. This hybrid "Super-Node" solution will be even easier to operate and integrate than the previous version, offer top-notch history management, and tie in with the best available Ethereum clients. The dev-duo will also be discussing the many benefits and successes of the existing tEVM Version 1. Since its launch, the tEVM’s ecosystem is closing on six months of strategic growth. On the DeFi side, it has already launched multiple Dex/AMMs, Price Oracles, Farming dApps, multi-Chain bridges, Lending dApps, and everything else that a vibrant DeFi ecosystem requires to level up its TVL and end-user occupancy. Telos’ TVL is now where the market cap leading chains were not long ago but with far superior governance, no front running, credible neutrality, true decentralization, and an ESG compliant EVM that is several multiples faster. In utopian fashion, Telos’ ecosystem is now ready to scale its occupants and its TVL simultaneously. About Telos Live since 2018, Telos Blockchain (ticker: TLOS) is a third-generation smart contract platform that offers compatibility with Solidity, Vyper, and Native C++ smart contracts. Telos provides full EVM/Solidity support with fixed low-cost gas fees and no front running and, more uniquely, offers a path to fee-less transactions via its robust native C++ smart contract support. Even while operating as a Net Zero Blockchain, Telos still sustainably supports hundreds of millions of transactions per day, produces blocks in 0.5 second intervals (on a first-in-first-out basis, eliminating front running on the network), and securely validates transactions via a credibly neutral and globally decentralized block producer network. As a result, the Telos blockchain has the throughput needed to facilitate and scale the thriving Metaverse / Web 3.0 landscape better than any other blockchain in existence. Its performance is unrivaled in the industry and was purpose-built to offer speed, scalability, cost-effectiveness, credible decentralization, and end-user fairness. Telos harnesses its power by utilizing tight C++ on the frontend and a custom WASM runtime environment on the backend. About The Foundation The Telos Foundation is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization established as a promotional and funding body to advance the Telos Blockchain Network and provide support to network applications.

Huguette Marcelle Clark: A Portrait of the Artist -- First Exhibition of Famed Heiress’ Paintings in Over 90 Years Now at Santa Barbara Historical Museum

Santa Barbara Historical Museum

Stories about copper heiress Huguette Clark (1906–2011) have captivated the news media and public. Though she stayed out of the public eye in her later years, she was a talented artist who held exhibitions of her paintings in both New York and Paris as a young woman. Clark’s artwork is now on view to the public for the first time since 1931 at the Santa Barbara Historical Museum, presented in collaboration with the Bellosguardo Foundation. “Huguette Marcelle Clark: A Portrait of the Artist” is on exhibit through June 12, 2022. (Note: Huguette is pronounced hyoo-GETT.) Never before publicly seen images from Clark’s recently rediscovered personal photo album and ephemera from her scrapbooks are also displayed, giving glimpses of her at work in her art studio and from her private life at her Bellosguardo estate and elsewhere in Santa Barbara from the 1910s through the 1940s. For more information, visit www.sbhistorical.org. “We wanted to show the breadth of Huguette Clark’s talent,” said Dacia Harwood, director of the Santa Barbara Historical Museum. “She lived a fascinating life, and we’ve learned more about her time in our community while preparing this exhibition.” Clark has been the subject of extensive media coverage and several books, including New York Times bestselling “Empty Mansions: The Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark and the Spending of a Great American Fortune” by Bill Dedman. Clark painted throughout her time in Santa Barbara, first at Meridian Studios on East De la Guerra Street (located next to the current site of the Historical Museum) from 1933 to 1935 while the Bellosguardo estate was being built, and then in her studio in the estate. As a younger woman Clark evidenced a wide-ranging interest in the arts as a painter, musician, and collector of beauty: decorative and fine art, costumes, exquisitely fashioned dolls, and fine jewels. Trained by renowned portraitist Tadeusz (Tadé) Styka [pronounced Taa-DEY-uw-sh (Tejd) STY-ka], she built a deep body of work throughout her long life. The exhibition presents self-portraits, portraits, a still life, and images of a Japanese geisha, a ballerina, and a Spanish dancer, among others. Styka’s portrait of Clark is also on view. As the residual beneficiary of Clark’s estate, the Bellosguardo Foundation received an extensive collection of her paintings. Several of the works selected, all oils, were conserved in anticipation of the exhibition. The Foundation has also shared a selection of personal items from her photo albums and scrapbooks which illustrate her life from her childhood and early life in Santa Barbara. The 23-acre oceanfront estate Bellosguardo was redesigned and rebuilt after the 1925 earthquake by Anna Clark, widow of Senator William Andrews Clark, and then passed to Huguette. At one time, Senator Clark was the second richest man in America. Following her death in 2011 at age 104, the property was bequeathed to the Bellosguardo Foundation with the goal of transforming it into a focal point for art and culture in Santa Barbara and beyond. Visit www.bellosguardo.org. The Santa Barbara Historical Museum is located in downtown Santa Barbara at 136 East de la Guerra Street. Admission is free. Hours are currently Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from noon to 5 p.m. and Thursdays from noon to 7 p.m. Visit www.sbhistorical.org. The Museum’s mission is to create meaningful connections to Santa Barbara history. The signature installation, The Story of Santa Barbara, traces our community’s story from the Chumash to the mid 20th century. Accessible and diverse community programming along with rotating exhibitions feature dynamic local traditions, art, and historical events. Visitors also experience the Edward Borein Gallery, the Gledhill Research Library, and two historic adobes. Visit www.sbhistorical.org. Contact Details Julia McHugh +1 805-569-3303 julia@juliapr.com

British viewers average over 4 hours of TV time per person a day

Intelligiants

UK viewers average over 4 hours of TV time per person a day UK produced TV shows attract global interest on multiple platforms Gala Bingo presents interesting facts around UK TV shows and series The amount of TV shows that are produced in the UK, streamed globally, are reaching all-time highs around the world. Nowadays, there are even series that compete with the classics from the golden age of TV and the likes of Sopranos, 24 and OZ. Series like Downton Abby and Peaky Blinders (originally BBC) are already considered modern classics, and it was reported that Amazon and Netflix doubled their spending on production costs for UK series between 2017-2018. Gala Bingo has recently released a handful of blog posts that take a closer look at the biggest wins in game shows, what the favorite TV moments were during 2021 and in their latest post, a TV show quiz where you try to guess the programme and see just how much of a binger you really are. David Winter, Marketing Manager of Gala Bingo, explains that “ the quiz is more of a tribute, rather than a self-diagnostic tool, to all the great shows that we have seen over the last few years, especially for the shows produced in the UK. We truly embrace and appreciate the technological steps that we have been blessed with in the entertainment industry over the last few years, bringing us our favorite pastime entertainment through streaming and on-demand solutions. ” The fight for the market share of subscribers to streaming services was more of an US-centric battle just a few years back, with viewers in the rest of the world having to wait for releases of movies and TV shows in their respective regions. This is not the case anymore and it is safe to assume that most households have subscriptions not just to Netflix, which dominated the market for years, but now also are signed up for several other local or national services from Sky to Prime TV, even Disney Plus to Apple TV. There is an abundance of choice and there seems to be room for more than one giant streaming network, with the landscape having changed as audiences just keep on growing through all age groups, nationwide.

TabinekoKIKI Partners Up with CultDAO with a Spirit to Fight Centralization

TabinekoKIKI

Their spirit of decentralization aligns very well, as two long-term projects with great causes, TabinekoKIKI and CultDAO, join forces to fight centralization and make a difference in this world together. Spirit of Decentralization - A Redefined Approach Fighting centralization with the power of blockchain and web3.0 is the reason TabinekoKIKI was founded: ‘’Back in 2020, one of my cats (Aimer, エメちゃん) was dying from FIP (known as the incurable deadly disease for cats). We took her to different veterinarians, and every one of them told us the only thing we could do was to spend our final time with her and put her to sleep before it got too painful. My family and I were heartbroken and hopeless. Many friends of mine had their beloved cats pass away from this evil “cat-killer” disease, and everyone told me the best I could do for Aimer was to let her go. I remember holding her on my legs at the last vet we visited, as she kept purring and kneading my arms as always, as if nothing was happening. I can still see the picture that I shattered many tears on her balloon-like belly in the veterinarian's waiting room. That was when I decided that I would go beyond my comfort zone, my limits, and try every single thing possible to save her from dying, against all odds. Talking to my long-time friend Shino, I was shocked and indignant to find out there was a cure to FIP unofficially. I went beyond my boundaries for some research and bought a medicine called “GS-441524” using some currency called “USDT.” That is my very first experience of cryptocurrency and is still what I love about blockchain and web3. That we are able to break down walls, to connect, to demolish class barriers, to make information Equal, to make supplies and services available to the World, to free people from oppression by corps and politics, to start over and build an independent financial and social system together for PEOPLE, for everyone to contribute, to utilize, to free ourselves, regardless of our classes, regions, races, genders. No Barriers.” TabinekoKIKI spreading love in both the real and crypto worlds The core concepts of Tsubasa, “Loving, Caring, Free, Healing, and Anti-Labeling” make it a symbol of freedom. During the creation of Tsubasa artwork, the project focused on creating a relaxing, uplifting, and refreshing feeling for the audience, with elements like wings, stars, winds, codes, flowers, and melodies. TabinekoKIKI believes that love and passion are wings that can be used to break down boundaries, eliminate labels, abandon stereotypes, understand, feel, and love, and create a free world that belongs to everyone, regardless of gender, ethnicity, religion, class, or even species. Tsubasa is also the record label and fashion label of TabinekoKIKI ecosystem.

ReadyWise Partners with Rising Female Star Driving for the National Pediatric Center

ReadyWise, Inc.

ReadyWise, the freeze-dried and dehydrated emergency food and simple soups and snacks leader, has signed a two-year sponsorship contract with seventeen-year-old sprint car racer, Gray Leadbetter. Earlier this year, Leadbetter teamed up with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation, which funds research to eliminate childhood cancer and has committed to donating 10% of sponsorship dollars to the organization. This marks ReadyWise's first time entering as a sponsor in the sport of motor racing and is the perfect partnership showcasing Grey and ReadyWise's similar values as innovative trailblazers in their industry. "We are proud to be partnering with this young female superstar," says ReadyWise CEO Morten Steen-Jorgensen. "It's exciting to support Gray's talent while spreading the ReadyWise brand. We are proud that she has chosen to help the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation through her success." At just 17, Leadbetter shatters the stereotype of drivers who are typically male and brimming with bravado. With her quiet demeanor, slight build, and long hair, one could easily mistake her for an English major or an artist. But on the track, she's a fierce competitor. Leadbetter stepped up into sprint cars after competing in motocross, karting, rallycross, Championship Off-Road, midgets, and mini-sprints in 2021. With up to 900 horsepower, sprint cars are the winged beasts of the motorsports world, a world that men have dominated until now. With ReadyWise sponsorship, Leadbetter will compete in more than 20 sprint car races this year and run a full schedule in the Championship Off-Road series in the Midwest. Leadbetter will be wearing the ReadyWise name at her races, showcasing both the Emergency and Simple Kitchen Everyday snacks line. ReadyWise's Emergency line comes with products that have up to 25 years of shelf life for life's big and small emergencies for peace of mind tomorrow. ReadyWise's Simple Kitchen line is their most innovative yet, with a full line of freeze-dried snack and soups. These products are great for every day without worrying about expiration dates. The line features conventional and organic freeze-dried fruits, seasoned veggies, soups, and sweet treats.
