We take a look back at one of our favorite Gucci campaigns, “We Will Always Have London,” created under the direction of Creative Director Sabato De Sarno to spotlight the Gucci Blondie bag and last year's Cruise collection. Captured by renowned photographer and filmmaker Nan Goldin, the campaign brings together cultural icons Debbie Harry and Kelsey Lu in a cinematic portrait of London, weaving together its people, places, and unmistakable energy. There is also a fun Miami connection: Harry, the legendary frontwoman of Blondie, was born right here in Miami. Her appearance in a campaign centered around the Gucci Blondie makes the connection all the more fitting. The collection debuted in London last year, which holds special significance for the brand, as it was here that founder Guccio Gucci first encountered the elegance of the international elite while working as a liftboy at The Savoy Hotel in the early 20th century. Nan Goldin’s documentary-style photography infuses the campaign with a sense of intimacy and raw emotion, capturing the essence of its subjects. Goldin, whose work has earned her international acclaim, brings a distinctive perspective to the imagery, creating a cinematic atmosphere throughout the campaign. The story unfolds in various London locations, using nighttime backdrops to enhance the mood of the collection. Debbie Harry, co-founder of the band Blondie, and Kelsey Lu, a cellist and composer, serve as the faces of the campaign. The two artists, though from different generations, share a creative spirit that embodies the essence of the Gucci Blondie bag—a reimagined icon from the 1970s. Joining them in the campaign are models Alaato Jazyper, the face of Gucci’s Fall/Winter 2024 campaign, and Yanan Wan, who opened the Cruise 2025 runway at Tate Modern. At the center of the campaign is the Gucci Blondie bag, which originally debuted in the early 1970s. The bag’s rounded emblem and sleek silhouette have been updated for modern aesthetics while maintaining its original spirit of liberation and style. Discover more about Gucci at www.gucci.com.

Do you feel like nutritionists are always changing their minds? Do you want science-based information about diet but don’t know whom or what to believe? If you’re nodding in agreement, you’re not alone: More than 80% of Americans are befuddled. Yet it’s a lament that’s getting quite tiring – if you’re a nutrition scientist, that is. So much so that I refocused my career to shine scientific light on today’s critical food conversations, which have profound impacts on public health and the environment. My mantra: From farm to fork, what we eat matters. In fact, did you know that 80% of chronic diseases are preventable through modifiable lifestyle changes, and diet is the single largest contributing factor? Science says plants are better for you and our planet Scientists agree plant-based diets are better for both you and the planet.casanisa/shutterstock.com Clean eating or keto? Paleo or gluten-free? Whole 30 or vegan? Forget fad diets, because science has the answers – there is far more agreement about diet and health than you may know. The scientific report from the 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, for example, concluded that a plant-based diet is best for human health and the environment alike. More than 75% of your meal should comprise vegetables, fruits and whole grains, and protein sources should include beans, peas, nuts, seeds and soy. Canada’s 2019 Food Guide is similarly plant-focused, as is Harvard’s Healthy Eating Plate, while Brazil emphasizes foods “mainly of plant origin.” These guidelines and others also stress the importance of limiting processed and ultra-processes foods. There’s also consensus from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and others that plant-based diets are more sustainable, largely due to the high energy inputs and environmental damage of livestock. While it may sound like a fad, a “plant-based” diet has been studied for decades. Awareness escalated as it addresses two urgent public health challenges: the chronic disease epidemic and the climate change crisis. It’s a win-win for human health and the environment. Plant-based diets can be adapted to suit your taste preferences, traditions and cultures, as the Blue Zones, or regions of the world where people typically live longer than average and with fewer chronic diseases, indicate. If science has the keys to a health-promoting, disease-preventing, planet-saving diet, why are people so confused? A closer look will arm you with the skills to sort fact from fiction. There’s money in confusion Celebrity junk science is an obvious player. It might even be cloaked in scrubs, like Dr. Oz – though chastised by the Senate for his quackery. (Physicians, in general, have little to no training in nutrition.) Celebrities garner enormous platforms, often clouding the truth (or drowning it completely); the deal between Netflix and Gwyneth Paltrow, whose company Goop was sued over a certain jade egg, suggests that science is losing the battle. One needn’t be a celebrity to hold sway, however. A list of the Top 100 influencers showed that most were bloggers or athletes with no expertise. (None were scientists.) These voices gain considerable traction on social media. Health Feedback, a network of scientists who review the accuracy of online content, conducted a study with the Credibility Coalition and found a minority of articles received a positive rating, with most “exaggerating the benefits and harms of various foods.” Traditional media don’t always shed light, alas. Single-study sensationalism is ubiquitous – for example, glyphosate in oats, coconut oil and weight, coffee causing cancer – and findings lack context. And science journalism has taken a hit, and is perhaps why CNN interviewed an anti-science zealot. Or why the Los Angeles Times tweeted that there’s a “growing belief” about the health benefits of celery juice. (Pro tip: It’s not a thing.) Surrounding the din of bogus dietary advice and media hype is a backdrop of science denialism, which legitimizes anti-science when espoused from top levels of government. Science illiteracy also plays a role. Nonetheless, there are knowledge gaps: 57% of Americans have never seen the dietary illustration from the U.S. Deparment of Agriculture called MyPlate or know little about it, and 63% reported it was hard to recognize sustainable choices. Shoppers also claimed that identifying healthy food was difficult (11%) or moderate (61%). Unsurprising, perhaps, since 48% looked to crowded food packages for guidance: Some labels are meaningful while others are little more than marketing. (All natural, anyone?) Indeed, powerful food and agriculture lobbies still exert influence on dietary guidelines and obscure the science. Through all of this, I believe the nutrition science community has tacitly contributed by failing to participate collectively in the public discourse. Nor have we adequately defended our discipline when attacked, whether by journalists, physicians or food writers. Changing the conversation Potent societal powers create a culture of nutrition confusion that not only obfuscate the truth about diet, they undermine science as a whole. Three steps will help eaters navigate this rocky terrain. Begin by asking critical questions when digesting diet news. Does the writer have an advanced degree in nutrition, or does she or he have expertise in science journalism? Are there references to peer-reviewed studies or scientific organizations? Is the source credible? Are miracle cures or quick results promised? Are there expensive price tags for magic bullets? Does it sound like clickbait? Questioning the who-what-where-why-how is paramount. Second, remember that what flits through our newsfeeds often comes via algorithms that enable news to careen through our echo chambers and elicit confirmation bias, factual or not. Offline, too, we are more likely to share beliefs with friends and family, our tribe. Getting curious about what you eat and why it matters beyond your comfort zone is necessary: You may need to “unlearn what you have learned.” Finally, try this on for size: Nutrition. Isn’t. Confusing. We all have cherished traditions and values – what we eat isn’t just about the science. (At least, I hope not.) But it is time to learn the fundamental food and nutrition facts that will inspire you to harness the power of food to promote health, prevent disease and protect the planet. Change is possible – and the truth is out there. Words by P.K. Newby Adjunct Associate Professor of Nutrition, Harvard University. Special thanks to The Conversation for republishing rights.

Of all the moments that capture Dolly Parton’s musical talents, fierce intelligence and driving ambition, I often find myself thinking back to an awkward, ad-libbed live television duet on “The Porter Wagoner Show.” Dolly Parton was fond of saying, ‘It takes a lot of money to look this cheap.’ Paul Natkin/Getty Images The year was 1973. Parton had been performing alongside Wagoner on the syndicated variety show since 1967. Though this had been her big break in Nashville, Parton was feeling confined by playing second fiddle to Wagoner, who, as her producer, often took control of the musical arrangements of her songs. Despite Parton’s commercial success, he was often dismissive of her creative vision. With Parton and Wagoner set to perform “Run That By Me One More Time” – a song Parton had written in 1970, about a marital quarrel – Wagoner begins by saying, “Me and my sidekick, she just kicked me in the side.” Dolly retorts, “Not yet, but I think I will after this.” After the two sing the opening lines, Parton dives into her verse: “Well you’re late again I see What’s your excuse this time? Don’t try to kiss and make up When you smell so strong from wine.” Right as Wagoner moves in to sing his excuse for coming home late, Parton unexpectedly interrupts him by singing a prolonged, “Well, I –” as if she were going to sing another line. Porter, caught by surprise, pauses. Parton laughs, “I thought I’d throw that in.” A flustered Wagoner asks Parton where they are in the song. Back on track, Wagoner begins the next verse, demanding to know what Parton has done with the rent money. She ad-libs her explanation: “You seen me put that money in that cookie jar the same day you brought it home and one day I come back from shopping and I looked and every dime of that money was gone but I didn’t get it and you know I didn’t get it.” She’s gone well over her allotted time, and Wagoner starts singing his planned retort. But Parton doesn’t let up and starts speaking over him: “I didn’t get it. I don’t know who got it but I don’t want you packing it on me no more.” Guffaws are audible from the crowd. All Wagoner can do is awkwardly laugh as he says, “Would you run – me by that one more time.” Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner perform ‘Run That By Me One More Time’ on a 1973 episode of ‘The Porter Wagoner Show.’ Wagoner eventually recovers and the two cheerfully finish the song to applause. But for anyone watching, it’s clear who’s in control and whose song it is. A year later, Parton left the show after writing the hit songs “Jolene” and “I Will Always Love You.” Her 1976 album, “All I Can Do,” was nominated for a Grammy for Best Country Vocal Performance, Female. The rest – 25 No. 1 country singles, 10 Grammy awards, 44 Top 10 country albums – is history. Turning the tables Parton, who died on Aug. 25, 2026, didn’t simply tell jokes for cheap chuckles. In my work as a scholar of country music, I’ve written about how female country artists from the mid-20th century to the 2010s deployed humor to elbow their way into an industry that has often been hostile to women. Throughout the genre’s history, female country artists could be treated as window dressing for the male main attractions. And when women did achieve success, the industry could be quick to portray them as climbers who abandoned their country roots in pursuit of pop stardom. Women also traditionally have had a harder time getting recording contracts and radio airplay. As recently as 2015, radio consultant Keith Hill controversially said that country stations should play mostly male artists, describing men as the “lettuce” and women as the “tomatoes” in a salad. One way female artists fought back? By using humor to upend expectations about how women should behave. In Lulu Belle’s comedic take on marriage in her 1939 song “I Wish I Was a Single Girl Again,” she plays the part of the female rube. By assuming the caricature of female hillbilly, she was able to do or say things that a conventionally respectable female character couldn’t. Similarly, June Carter often played the unruly country girl who aimed her punchlines at male hosts and duet partners, including Johnny Cash. And in the uproarious “Got My Name Changed Back,” the contemporary trio Pistol Annies use humor to turn the pain of divorce into a celebration of female empowerment. But few have ever wielded humor as deftly as Parton. She used quick-witted retorts and self-deprecating jokes as weapons to disarm audiences and shine a spotlight on double standards and gendered biases. Dolly Parton hugs comedian John Belushi at Windows on the World in New York City in May 1977. Art Zelin/Getty Images She often did this by making men the butt of her jokes. Take two of Parton’s first commercial hits: “Dumb Blonde,” written by Curly Putman, and her self-penned “Something Fishy.” In “Dumb Blonde,” Parton tells the story of a cheating man who, upon being confronted, angrily accuses her of being a “dumb blonde.” After announcing that “this dumb blonde ain’t nobody’s fool,” the song’s narrator triumphantly declares, “If there’s one thing this blonde has learned, blondes have more fun,” before walking away from the relationship on her own terms. “Something Fishy” is another song about a cheater. Parton’s lyrics contrast the man’s thin lies about “going on fishing trips” with her suspicion of his infidelities. “Something fishy is going on,” she says wryly, playing up the pun. The audience is in on the mockery of this dim-witted man, whose astute wife can see right through him. Dolly’s world Dolly Parton performs at the Wembley Empire Pool in London in April 1976. Andrew Putler/Redferns via Getty Images In the same way that Parton took the spotlight from Wagoner during that televised duet in 1973 – and makes it clear who’s in control and who isn’t – Parton also took control of the narrative of her career. When critics questioned her commitment to country, she demonstrated that popular stardom and country authenticity were not mutually exclusive. When they condemned her ambition, she made no apologies for wanting more. When they tried to ridicule her look, she owned her Dolly image by means of her wit. As Parton would often say, “It costs a lot of money to look this cheap.” There’s so much in that line. For one, it’s hilarious. But it also signals that she intentionally crafted her campy persona, and that her calculated appearance also contributed to her wild success. That was Dolly: self-deprecating, self-aware, self-assured and, yes – wickedly funny. Words by Stephanie Vander Wel, Associate Professor of Music, University at Buffalo.

In Miami courtrooms, though, fault is often the easy part. The harder battle is causation, which means proving the crash actually caused the injuries you claim. Insurance companies in South Florida rarely deny that a crash happened. Instead, they argue your pain came from somewhere else, and that argument can shrink a strong case down to almost nothing. If an insurer is already questioning what caused your injuries, a car accident attorney in Miami can review your medical records and show you where your case stands. Image by magnific.com What Causation Means in a Florida Crash Case Causation is the link between the crash and the harm. To win, you must prove two connections, not one. First, the other driver's careless act caused the collision. Second, the collision caused the specific injuries and losses you are claiming, from the herniated disc to the missed paychecks. Florida law asks whether the crash "more likely than not" caused the harm, which means your proof must tip the scales past 50 percent. That second connection is where most Miami cases turn into a fight. A driver can admit running a stop sign on Flagler Street and still deny that the impact hurt your back. Fault answers who created the danger. Causation answers what the danger actually did to your body. Insurers know a jury may believe the crash happened exactly as you describe and still doubt that it caused your pain, so they aim their attacks there. Florida's No-Fault Rules Raise the Stakes Florida's insurance system makes causation matter from day one. Under Florida Statute § 627.736, your own personal injury protection (PIP) coverage pays first, but only if you receive initial medical care within 14 days of the crash. A quick first visit does more than preserve benefits. It creates the earliest medical record tying your symptoms to the collision, which becomes the foundation of your causation proof. The stakes climb higher when you seek money for pain and suffering. Florida Statute § 627.737 blocks those damages in most car accident cases unless you prove a permanent injury, significant scarring, or death arising from the crash. Notice the word "arising." It is not enough to show you have a permanent injury. You must show this crash produced it. An insurer that convinces a jury your disc damage existed before the collision can wipe out the largest part of your claim. How Insurers Attack the Cause of Your Injuries Adjusters and defense lawyers in Miami use a familiar playbook to break the link between crash and injury. They dig through years of your medical history looking for another explanation. They study photos of the vehicles and question how a "minor" impact could hurt anyone. Expect arguments built on: Prior injuries Treatment gaps Low-damage photos Normal aging Each attack follows the same logic. An old work injury becomes the "real" source of your back pain. A three-week gap in care suggests something else happened during the silence. A bumper with light scratches supposedly proves the forces were too small to injure you. And on imaging reports, defense doctors label disc problems as degeneration, the ordinary wear of aging, rather than trauma. None of these arguments is automatic proof, but each one plants doubt. Proof That Wins the Causation Fight You beat these attacks with a clear, unbroken medical story. The record should start within days of the crash and continue without long silences until your doctors release you. Time limits apply here too, because Florida Statute § 95.11 gives most crash victims only two years to file suit, and building causation proof takes months. The strongest cases usually include: Prompt medical care Imaging results Doctor causation opinions Consistent symptom reports Early treatment anchors your timeline. MRI and X-ray results give juries something concrete to see. A treating doctor who states, in writing, that the crash caused the injury carries far more weight than a records stack alone. And telling every provider the same symptoms, every visit, denies the defense the contradictions it hunts for. Solid causation proof also protects you under Florida Statute § 768.81, the comparative fault law, because it leaves less room to shift blame onto you. The Crash Lasts a Second, the Proof Lasts Years That argument is not decided by how bad the crash felt. It is decided by records, scans, and the words doctors write down along the way. Every appointment you keep and every symptom you report, becomes part of the answer. Treat the weeks after a crash as evidence in motion, because in a Miami courtroom, that is exactly what they are.

Toe walking may become more concerning when it continues beyond the early toddler years. Repeated heel elevation can shorten the calf muscles, reduce ankle flexibility, and alter balance during standing or movement. Some children toe walk without an identifiable medical cause, while others have cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, or sensory differences. A pediatric assessment identifies contributing factors and helps determine whether gradual casting may improve foot placement and walking mechanics. Image by DepositPhotos A Gradual Approach to Better Foot Position Children receiving serial casting for toe walking wear casts that hold the ankle in a gently corrected position. This sustained stretch places controlled tension on shortened calf muscles and the Achilles tendon. After several days, the therapist removes each cast, checks the tissue response, and applies another with a small adjustment. Repeated sessions gradually increase dorsiflexion, making heel contact easier during standing and walking. Why Toe Walking Can Continue Persistent toe walking may reflect calf tightness, reduced ankle control, poor balance, altered sensation, or motor coordination differences. Neurological conditions can also influence muscle tone and gait development. Children with cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, or acquired brain injury may require additional evaluation. A therapist considers these factors before recommending casting, because treatment must address the cause as well as the visible walking pattern. The First Evaluation Assessment begins with direct observation of walking, running, standing, and squatting. The therapist measures ankle range with the knee straight and bent, since those positions reveal different muscle restrictions. Muscle tone, foot alignment, strength, balance, and skin tolerance also receive attention. Family observations add useful detail about fatigue, falls, discomfort, footwear, and participation at home or school. How Weekly Casting Works At each appointment, the therapist removes the existing cast and inspects the skin, swelling, comfort, and ankle alignment. A new cast then holds the foot slightly closer to a flat-foot position. The adjustment is controlled rather than forceful. Children may move more cautiously for a short time, yet most continue ordinary routines with guidance about bathing, activity, and cast protection. Muscle Length Improves Over Time A shortened gastrocnemius or soleus strain can keep the heel elevated during gait. Casting maintains the ankle in dorsiflexion long enough to provide a steady, low-intensity stretch. Regular cast changes allow tissues to accommodate without placing excessive pressure on joints or skin. As motion improves, children may show better heel contact, longer steps, and less reliance on forefoot loading. Foot Alignment Supports Safer Steps Ankle alignment affects balance and how forces are distributed through the foot, knee, and hip. Bringing the heel closer to the floor can distribute pressure more evenly during weight bearing. Children may then find standing, walking, and changing direction easier. Better mechanics can also reduce compensatory movements, such as excessive knee bending, hip rotation, or forward trunk leaning. Progress Needs Regular Checks Treatment should change according to measurable findings, not a fixed calendar alone. Therapists compare dorsiflexion, muscle tone, gait quality, comfort, and functional skills during each visit. Skin irritation, pressure areas, swelling, or unusual pain require prompt attention. If progress plateaus, the clinician may modify the cast, add exercises, review orthotic needs, or seek medical input. Image by DepositPhotos Home Support Reinforces New Movement Casting creates improved ankle mobility, but daily practice helps the nervous system use that new range. Families may receive stretching instructions, strengthening tasks, balance games, and walking cues. After casting ends, ankle-foot orthoses or night splints can help maintain alignment. Supportive footwear, safe activity, and scheduled follow-up reduce the chance of losing newly gained flexibility. When Other Care May Be Needed Casting does not fit every child or every presentation. Severe fixed contractures, significant weakness, skin problems, or certain neurological conditions may require another approach. Physical therapy, orthoses, medication, diagnostic testing, or surgical consultation could become part of the care plan. The treatment team reviews examination findings, medical history, goals, and functional needs before selecting the safest option. Benefits Beyond Heel Contact Greater ankle range may help children run, climb stairs, squat, jump, and rise from the floor with less compensation. Improved ankle mobility and gait mechanics may improve comfort during play and classroom activities. A more stable gait may also support confidence and participation. Results vary with age, diagnosis, muscle tone, baseline flexibility, and consistency with exercises or orthotic use. Conclusion Serial casting addresses toe walking through gradual changes in ankle flexibility and muscle length. Each cast maintains a controlled stretch, while repeated adjustments guide the heel closer to the floor. Careful assessment, skin monitoring, home practice, orthotic support, and follow-up all influence the result. Families noticing persistent forefoot walking can arrange a pediatric evaluation, especially if stiffness, falls, fatigue, or limited activity accompany the gait pattern. By ML Staff.

For the high-end traveler, sun-soaked leisure comes easily. Especially for those living in Miami, where beach clubs and rooftop pools bring the sense that every weekend is an occasion in itself. But for someone who has already claimed every worthy cabana, there becomes a pull to go further, to explore landscapes that share little with the coastline they know and love. You don’t need to travel internationally either, as a well-chosen American long-weekend escape can deliver a complete change of scenery without the toll of a long-haul flight. These are the US weekend getaways worth going out of state for. Image by DepositPhotos California's wine country, seen in a new light In the Santa Ynez Valley, oak-studded hills roll toward the Pacific in a landscape that feels closer to Provence than to Southern California. Vineyards trace the contours of the valley floor, but the ocean is never far, so the region offers a rare pairing of wine country calm and coastal cool. Further north, iconic Napa offers its own world-famous version of the same idea: rows of vines catching the afternoon light, with the pace and feel of the region totally in tune with the harvest. Be captivated by New Mexico’s glowing desert New Mexico's high desert operates on a different register altogether. In Santa Fe, the glow of Adobe architecture against a backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and the region's magically clear light all combine to create a vibe that inspires creativity. Journey here for a landscape defined by space and stillness, great cuisine, and a deliberate contrast to the density and pace of life in the big city. Unwind in Utah's epic mountain ranges For travelers seeking elevation in every sense, Utah's Wasatch Mountains deliver dramatic peaks and cool mountain air which can be easily enjoyed within a four-day window. It may be thought of as a ski destination, but Deer Valley offers incredible potential for outdoor fun in the warmer months, too. Winding country backroads make a mini road trip here a one-of-one memory. Photos simply don’t do justice to the grandeur of mighty pine forests and granite ridgelines. A special place for lovers of the great outdoors. Image by DepositPhotos Stay East Coast, but feel a million miles away For a shorter flight, the East Coast holds its own surprises. Just a couple of hours from NYC, Hudson Valley's rolling farmland and rivers are the ideal tonic to city burnout. Take a drive through Virginia's rugged Blue Ridge Mountains, or explore the historic city of Asheville for a taste of what the high life looks like at elevation. Each East Coast destination offers a distinctly different vibe from Florida’s coastal, tropical familiarity and is proof that a complete change of scenery doesn't mean hopping on a cross-country flight. The true magic of a long weekend getaway When considering American weekend getaways, it’s not just about chasing a new backdrop. Instead it's a genuinely different sensory experience from the one you know at home. Crisp mountain air instead of ocean humidity. Vineyard relaxation instead of the buzz of nightlife. Specialist tour operators like HunterMoss have built entire US-based collections around a long-weekend format, curating upscale weekend getaways across both coasts that let you trade the familiar for something entirely new, just a short flight away.
