+ “An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.” ~ Winston Churchill

Legacy

In a world where the pursuit of success has become a relentless chase, where humanity measures worth by achievements, wealth, and accolades, it's easy to forget what truly sustains us. The eloquence of our words, the depth of our knowledge, and the strength of our convictions—without love—are nothing but noise in the symphony of life. As St. Paul so eloquently expressed in a reading from the first letter of Paul to the Corinthians (12:31-13:8):

"If I have all the eloquence of men or of angels, but speak without love, I am simply a gong booming or a cymbal clashing. If I have the gift of prophecy, understanding all the mysteries there are, and if I have faith in all its fullness, to move mountains, but am without love, I am nothing at all."

These words are as relevant today as they were centuries ago. In our quest to conquer, to be the best, we may speak with the tongues of angels, yet if our hearts are empty, our words are just the clanging of a gong, the crashing of a cymbal. We may achieve great things, but without love, those achievements are dust, ephemeral and ultimately, meaningless.

Winston Churchill once said, “An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.” How often do we, in our pursuit of success, feed the crocodiles of fear, greed, and ambition, hoping they will spare us? We appease the demands of a world that measures us by what we have rather than who we are, forgetting that the crocodile will eventually turn on us, that it will never be satisfied with mere scraps.

But here is where the prophetic truth lies: it is not success that sustains humanity, but love. Love that is courageous enough to stand up to the crocodile, to say that there is more to life than being devoured by the insatiable hunger for more. Love that understands that true success is found not in what we achieve, but in who we become in the process. It is this love that allows us to be fully human, to connect, to give, and to receive in a way that transforms us and the world around us.

Maya Angelou once wrote,

"Hope and fear cannot occupy the same space, invite one to stay."

Hope, in its purest form, is a manifestation of love—a love that believes in the possibility of a better tomorrow, that sees beyond the immediate fears and doubts, and that sustains us in the darkest of times. Hope is the light that guides us when the path is unclear, the force that compels us to move forward even when the road is steep. It is this hope, born of love, that gives us the courage to face the crocodile, not with appeasement, but with the conviction that there is a greater power at work—a power that cannot be measured by worldly success, but only by the depth of our compassion, the breadth of our empathy, and the strength of our commitment to live fully and freely.

So let us not feed the crocodile, let us not appease the forces that seek to devour our humanity. Instead, let us be guided by love and hope, knowing that in the end, they are the only things that truly matter. For without love, we are nothing; but with love and hope, we have everything. We have the power to move mountains, to transform lives, and to create a world where success is not measured by what we gain, but by what we give.

This is the message that resonates from the words of St. Paul, through the centuries, to our hearts today. A message that calls us to re-examine what we value, to reconsider what we pursue, and to remember that in the end, it is not the trophies of our success that will endure, but the love and hope we dared to give, boldly shared, shaping a legacy far greater than ourselves.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month:  What You Should Know

Prominence and Hope

According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc, more than 360,000 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2024, making breast cancer the second leading cancer death in women.  The positive news from this daunting statistic is that with advancements in early detection methods the chances of survival continue to increase.  When caught in its earliest, localized stages, the 5-year relative survival rate of breast cancer is 99%.

History of Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October has been dedicated to Breast Cancer Awareness, also known as Pinktober.  Breast Cancer Awareness “Month” began in 1985 as a week-long awareness campaign by the American Cancer Society, in partnership with Imperial Chemical Industries, a British company that made tamoxifen. The campaign eventually grew into a month-long event.  In 1992, the pink ribbon came into play after Alexandra Penney, SELF magazine's Editor-in-Chief, partnered with Evelyn Lauder, Estée Lauder's Senior Corporate Vice President and a breast cancer survivor, to distribute pink ribbons after the magazine’s second annual Breast Cancer Awareness Month issue. Other variations of the pink ribbon have been introduced in recent years to raise awareness that all people with breast cancer are not the same. These include ribbons for raising awareness about metastatic breast cancer, men with breast cancer, inflammatory breast cancer, and more.  Breast Cancer Awareness Month is dedicated to educating people about breast cancer, including its early signs and symptoms, as well as increasing awareness and reducing the stigma linked to the symptoms and treatment of breast cancer.

It's also important to recognize that while some feel inspired, others living with breast cancer feel like the month overlooks their experience with the disease. Breastcancer.org states it perfectly, “Breast Cancer Awareness Month can mean different things to different people. For some, it’s a trigger — 31 days in the fall of pink-ribbon reminders of a disease that forever changed them. For others, it’s a chance to show their support for the more than 2 million women around the world who are diagnosed with the disease each year.” What You Should Know

Signs and symptoms of breast cancer may include:

A breast lump or thickened area of skin that feels different from the surrounding tissue.

A nipple that looks flattened or turns inward.

Changes in the color of the breast skin. In people with white skin, the breast skin may look pink or red. In people with brown and Black skin, the breast skin may look darker than the other skin on the chest or it may look red or purple.

Change in the size, shape or appearance of a breast.

Changes to the skin over the breast, such as skin that looks dimpled or looks like an orange peel.

Peeling, scaling, crusting or flaking of the skin on the breast.

Risk Factors

The exact cause of most breast cancers isn't known. Researchers have found things that increase the risk of breast cancer. These include hormones, lifestyle choices and things in the environment. 

Factors that may increase the risk of breast cancer include:

A family history of breast cancer. If a parent, sibling or child had breast cancer, your risk of breast cancer is increased. The risk is higher if your family has a history of getting breast cancer at a young age. The risk also is higher if you have multiple family members with breast cancer. Still, most people diagnosed with breast cancer don't have a family history of the disease.

A personal history of breast cancer. If you've had cancer in one breast, you have an increased risk of getting cancer in the other breast.

A personal history of breast conditions. Certain breast conditions are markers for a higher risk of breast cancer. These conditions include lobular carcinoma in situ, also called LCIS, and atypical hyperplasia of the breast. If you've had a breast biopsy that found one of these conditions, you have an increased risk of breast cancer.

Beginning your period at a younger age. Beginning your period before age 12 increases your risk of breast cancer.

Beginning menopause at an older age. Beginning menopause after age 55 increases the risk of breast cancer.

Being female. Women are much more likely than men are to get breast cancer. Everyone is born with some breast tissue, so anyone can get breast cancer.

Dense breast tissue. Breast tissue is made up of fatty tissue and dense tissue. Dense tissue is made of milk glands, milk ducts and fibrous tissue. If you have dense breasts, you have more dense tissue than fatty tissue in your breasts. Having dense breasts can make it harder to detect breast cancer on a mammogram. If a mammogram showed that you have dense breasts, your risk of breast cancer is increased. Talk with your healthcare team about other tests you might have in addition to mammograms to look for breast cancer.

Drinking alcohol. Drinking alcohol increases the risk of breast cancer.

Having your first child at an older age. Giving birth to your first child after age 30 may increase the risk of breast cancer.

Having never been pregnant. Having been pregnant one or more times lowers the risk of breast cancer. Never having been pregnant increases the risk.

Increasing age. The risk of breast cancer goes up as you get older.

Inherited DNA changes that increase cancer risk. Certain DNA changes that increase the risk of breast cancer can be passed from parents to children. The most well-known changes are called BRCA1 and BRCA2. These changes can greatly increase your risk of breast cancer and other cancers, but not everyone with these DNA changes gets cancer.

Menopausal hormone therapy. Taking certain hormone therapy medicines to control the symptoms of menopause may increase the risk of breast cancer. The risk is linked to hormone therapy medicines that combine estrogen and progesterone. The risk goes down when you stop taking these medicines.

Obesity. People with obesity have an increased risk of breast cancer.

Radiation exposure. If you received radiation treatments to your chest as a child or young adult, your risk of breast cancer is higher.

Prevention

Making changes in your daily life may help lower your risk of breast cancer. Try to:

Ask about breast cancer screening. Talk with your doctor or other healthcare professional about when to begin breast cancer screening. Ask about the benefits and risks of screening. Together, you can decide what breast cancer screening tests are right for you.

Become familiar with your breasts through breast self-exam for breast awareness. You may choose to become familiar with your breasts by occasionally inspecting them during a breast self-exam for breast awareness. If there is a new change, a lump or something not typical in your breasts, report it to a healthcare professional right away.

Drink alcohol in moderation, if at all. Limit the amount of alcohol you drink to no more than one drink a day, if you choose to drink. For breast cancer prevention, there is no safe amount of alcohol. So if you're very concerned about your breast cancer risk, you may choose to not drink alcohol.

Exercise most days of the week. Aim for at least 30 minutes of exercise on most days of the week. If you haven't been active lately, ask a healthcare professional whether it's OK and start slowly.

Limit menopausal hormone therapy. Combination hormone therapy may increase the risk of breast cancer. Talk with a healthcare professional about the benefits and risks of hormone therapy.

Maintain a healthy weight. If your weight is healthy, work to maintain that weight. If you need to lose weight, ask a healthcare professional about healthy ways to lower your weight. Eat fewer calories and slowly increase the amount of exercise.

What If?

Have you thought about the what if?  That’s a pretty Debbie-Downer question, isn’t it?  But, what if you or a loved one is diagnosed with breast cancer.  A breast cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming. Knowing what questions to ask can help you understand your diagnosis and advocate for yourself as you develop your treatment plan with your doctor. There are many resources that you can find online to know what these questions are.

You may feel stress, shock, fear, sadness, anger and grief after a breast cancer diagnosis. These feelings are normal. Some people find joining a support group or talking to a counselor or therapist helpful in coping with these feelings.  Seek out support and resources… don’t feel like you have to be alone in your journey.

How to Support Someone With Breast Cancer

When a loved one or friend has cancer, you may wonder how best to help and support them. Research has shown that emotional support from family and friends can make a big difference to the quality of life of someone with cancer.

People are often afraid of saying the wrong thing to someone with cancer. If you are open, honest and show your concern then you can be a great support. Here are some tips that might help you.

Do:

Say if you feel awkward – it acknowledges the situation rather than pretending it’s not happening.

Give them a friendly hand squeeze or hug – it can go a long way.

Ring them up, send a card, note or text to say you’re thinking of them.

Let them know that if they want to talk you’ll be there to listen - then make sure you are available.

Listen actively and without judgement; be a good listener.

Respect their need for privacy.

Offer support throughout the whole diagnosis - at the beginning, during and after treatment.

Share a joke or laugh with them if this seems appropriate.

Keep your relationship as normal and as balanced as possible.

Take them for a coffee or a short walk (if it seems appropriate), being outside in nature can help.

Provide practical support, ie. meals, transportation, run errands, etc.

Try not to:

Say you know how they feel – we can’t ever know exactly how someone with cancer feels.

Tell them to ‘be strong’ or ‘be positive’ or 'fight it' – it puts pressure on them to behave a certain way.

Take things personally if they seem angry or upset or don’t want to talk.

Offer advice that they haven’t asked for.

Compare their situation to somebody else you know, each person’s experience with cancer is unique.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Perhaps this blog contains more information than you feel you “should know” or need to know, but remember that knowledge is power.  With this information, it is the intent for you to feel empowered and educated so that you can choose how, or if, you recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  At Dignity & Hope Hospice and Palliative Care, we choose to support the fighters, admire the survivors and honor those that we have lost too soon.

So when screening women's breasts, you must identify each duct and each lobe in the breast first. 🤔 Then from there you look outward. Because the tumor needs, it's 2 things glucose and electrical energy, it needs to be near a nerve. So with these imaging systems if they identify each lobe and then look around the lobe and around the duct, though be very effective at finding any tumors, even very small.

"Most breast cancers begin in the ducts or lobules. Breast cancer can spread outside the breast through blood vessels and lymph vessels.

https://www.cdc.gov › basic_info

What Is Breast Cancer? | CDC"

So the thing they don't do is to identify each spot in a woman's breast. That tumor is grow and when you identify the spot. What is around that spot? And what race ethnic group and ageach of the female. Then they can come up with an algorithm that will help the systems identify cancerous tumors. But you have to take all the known cases and plot exactly where they occurred in everybody's body.Both men and women young and old whether it's brain cancer or any cancer. But this also occurs with liver disease and kidney disease where they start. So what i'm saying is we need to plot the origin of every disease on every person. What were identifying is the place of origin. But you need each individual's demographics.And yes you need their ancestrial history. So every patient they should run an ancestry.com. So we can cross reference or they can do a dna sample sample and put it to the human genome project to identify their genealogy.... So we can start identifying when different races and ethnic groups and within race and ethnic group and this includes gender and age group where things happen.... When they occur where do they occur for the different genetic makeups. Then we can cross reference education, Career and cultural dietary. Also, There's sexual activity.. And yes, you have to ask the question Does your partner orgasm in you and and do you swallow.

or do you use a condom?Or do you spit or do they pull out an orgasm outside of you..... We want to also understand the sexual pattern And it's affect on disease.

"Yes, breast cancer can start in the 

lobes of the breast. The lobes are the milk-producing glands in the breast, and most breast cancers start in the lobules or ducts of the breast. The lobules are made up of many smaller sacs, and the lobes and lobules are connected to the nipple by ducts.

Anatomical and histologic origins of breast cancer. Most breast cancers arise from the lobules or the ducts of the breast. In some cases, the tumor infiltrates the skin or components of the chest wall such as the pectoralis muscles. The tumor cells also are capable of converting the microenvironment into a tumor-friendly state to promote their growth and expansion.

my.clevelandclinic.org

Lobular Breast Cancer: Symptoms & Treatment - Cleveland Clinic

Sep 20, 2022 — Lobular breast cancer (lobular carcinoma, invasive lobular carcinoma, ILC) is breast cancer that starts in the milk-producing gland or lobes of your breasts. This is a slow-growing cancer that can be cured if it's detected and treated before it can spread from your breasts to nearby lymph nodes.

Breast cancer can start in different areas of the breast, including:

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS): Abnormal cells in the breast ducts

Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS): Abnormal cells in the breast lobules

Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC): Starts in the ducts and accounts for 80% of breast cancers Invasive lobular carcinoma

 (ILC): Starts in the lobules and accounts for 10% of breast cancers 

Invasive lobular carcinoma is a slow-growing cancer that can be cured if it's detected and treated before it can spread from the breasts to nearby 

lymph nodes Cancer cells can also enter the lymph vessels and start to grow in lymph nodes. 

According to a 2017 study, the upper outer quadrant of the breast is the most common site of breast cancer occurrence, which is the part of the breast nearest the armpit.

Now also you need to find every nerve in the breast and look near each of the nerves.

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors used to be called neurogenic sarcoma (sarcoma of the nervous system), neurofibrosarcoma, malignant neurofibroma, and malignant schwannoma. They are now collectively referred to as malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors to include all the various places they can start.

It’s annoying that it’s called “Lobular Carcinoma in Situ” and it’s not actually a carcinoma!

The key is to educate your patient on the significance of lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS). LCIS, unlike ductal carcinoma in situ, is neither a cancer nor a “pre-malignant lesion.” Instead, it is a lesion that statistically places the patient in a higher risk bracket of developing breast cancer. The current literature demonstrates that most patients with LCIS do not develop breast cancer regardless of treatment type used (92.9% over 10 years did not develop cancer), and those that did, did not always develop it on the ipsilateral breast. These findings have fueled best practice trends to focus on breast conservation. Tamoxifen, once metabolized, is a competitive estrogen receptor antagonist in breast tissue blocking the gene transcription and translation of proliferative proteins ceasing the tumor-cell life cycle. Tamoxifen has a 49%-56% cancer risk reduction through 5 years with improved responses in estrogen positive lesions. The use of this medication along with surveillance (annual mammography) offers risk reduction while protecting a woman’s self-image by preserving the breast.

LCIS occurs predominantly in premenopausal women and is usually identified incidentally with other benign changes in women who undergo biopsy. It is a noninvasive lesion that arises from the lobules and terminal ducts of the breast characterized by a solid proliferation of small cells, with small, uniform, round-to-oval nuclei, and variably distinct cell borders. If a woman is at high risk secondary to a strong family history of breast cancer or very early onset of breast or ovarian cancer, genetic counseling should be offered. For patients with known or suspected BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, most experts suggest aggressive surveillance consisting of an annual mammogram, annual MRI, and clinical breast exam every 4 to 6 months beginning at age 25. For patients with a more moderate family history, annual mammographic screening and clinical breast exam should begin within 10 years of age of breast cancer diagnosis in a first-degree relative or age 40, whichever comes first.

It almost always represents an incidental finding that is diagnosed on a breast biopsy. Surveillance must last for the patient's lifetime because the increased risk of breast cancer persists indefinitely. Most groups evaluate those with LCIS at 4 to 6 month intervals and obtain annual diagnostic mammograms. Although not presented here, this patient could undergo an excisional biopsy to exclude an associated malignancy, but it is important to note that a wide surgical excision with histologically negative margins (i.e., lumpectomy) is not needed since LCIS is often multicentric and is not managed as a precursor lesion.

+ “I dwell in possibility" ~ Emily Dickinson

I'm Possible

In the cacophony of life, amidst the relentless noise and the ever-persistent hustle, there lies a quiet, often overlooked truth: the power of your voice. Author and therapist Shannon L. Alder encapsulated this beautifully when she said, "When you give yourself permission to communicate what matters to you in every situation you will have peace despite rejection or disapproval. Putting a voice to your soul helps you to let go of the negative energy of fear and regret.”

In a world that frequently tells you to conform, to silence your uniqueness, and to doubt your dreams, embracing your voice is nothing short of revolutionary. It's a declaration of your existence, a bold statement that says, "I am here, and I matter." This act of self-permission is not just about speaking up; it’s about acknowledging your worth, your passions, and your right to live a life that is authentically yours.

The journey of finding and using your voice is not always easy. It requires courage, especially in the face of rejection and disapproval. But remember, as Muhammad Ali famously declared,

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing."

This profound truth underscores the spirit of "Permission Is Triumph," a philosophy I hold dear and have explored in over 750 entries on my Tumblr blog. Often, I am asked what this title means. Simply put, it is a testament to the transformative power of granting oneself the formal consent to pursue one's passions and purpose.

Too often, we allow fear, self-doubt, and the judgments of others to hold us back. These barriers cultivate a fixed mindset, trapping us in the comfort of predictability and safety. But the real magic happens when we grant ourselves permission to break free from these constraints. It's in that moment of self-authorisation that true movement begins, leading to purposeful action and, ultimately, self-actualisation.

Triumph, in this context, is about overcoming those fears and obstacles. It is about rejoicing in our growth and achievements, no matter how small they may seem. Every step taken with permission is a step toward mastery, toward a life where love, learning, and living are in harmonious balance.

The word "is" in "Permission Is Triumph" holds profound significance. It is the present indicative of "be," echoing Shakespeare’s timeless question, "To be or not to be." To merely exist or to live abundantly? That is the essence of my message. Each of us has the obligation to attend to ourselves, to truly live rather than just breathe. Saying yes to ourselves, to this glorious life, is the most liberating act we can undertake.

In granting yourself permission, you allow your heart the freedom to shine its light on everything you do. You stop waiting for meaning to happen to you and start defining your own existence. You realise that you have the power to create your own fulfilment and meaning. This is the core message of "Permission Is Triumph."

So, this is your moment. Embrace it fully. Know deep in your heart that you are enough. You possess the power to decide the course of your life. Let go of fear and regret that have held you back. As Maya Angelou wisely said, “Hope and fear cannot occupy the same space. Invite one to stay.” Choose hope as an act of self-love, a testament to your belief in your own potential. Remember always, you are not only capable—you are possible.

“One of the most important education philosophers of the past 50 years” and “an idol to thousands of educators” as described by The New York Times, the late Maxine Greene served on the TC faculty beginning in 1965. She was an ardent feminist, a crusader against anti-Semitism and a critic of capitalism who disdained her own privileged background. With work too far-ranging and diverse to lend itself to easy labeling, the @barnardcollege alumnus is perhaps best known for her exhortation to “look at things as if they could be otherwise” and for her passion for the arts as a catalyst to “wide-awakeness.” . . Greene founded her own foundation in 2003 that seeks to “generate inquiry, imagination, and the creation of art works by diverse people.” Before her death in 2014, she had also served as Philosopher-in-Residence of the Lincoln Center Institute for the Arts in Education (LCI) for nearly 40 years. In addition her numerous honors, Greene was recognized with a Teachers College Medal of Honor and creation of the Maxine Greene Chair for Distinguished Contributions to Education. #WomensHistoryMonth https://www.instagram.com/p/BvH2xCbD9vV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ztaof3xddven

E Waste Social

A B2B auction platform for waste management ensuring ease of waste recycling and refurbishing at your fingertips.

Industry condition/ Unique start of the entrepreneur

Often, recycling and repurposing are viewed by companies as tedious, time-consuming, and pointless efforts, and therefore are not prioritized. In the minds of most people, this entire process is unimportant, since most middlemen deal in waste.

Many of us do not realize that recycling is a powerful tool for optimizing resources and getting the most from waste.. These resources would go unused if they were not recycled, causing harm to the environment as well.

Many recyclers and PROs operate throughout the country, but waste is still dismantled by underage children and women in the informal sector.

Our platform, E Waste Social, makes recycling and refurbishing online as simple as buying products online.

Through innovations such as auction platforms, it is now possible to recycle and refurbish responsibly. However, E Waste Social realized that one innovation is not sufficient, which is why they are developing E optimal, a cloud-based platform for helping corporations decide whether to keep, refurbish, or recycle. By developing best practices and finding new solutions for efficient waste management, their R&D lab constantly strives to stay ahead of the curve. E Waste Social Network is built on trust, which fosters a culture of inclusion and effective communication, resulting in a robust e-waste management ecosystem.

Existing positioning/ services of the company

They have built an ecosystem to connect waste to the nearest recycler through a marketplace and auction platform. They provide recyclers with R&D insights into the most recent industry trends. They are also increasing capacity to ensure that recycling facilities are available to handle waste generated at various locations.

While raising recycling awareness and sensitizing the public, they are helping OEMs meet their EPR and sustainable development goals. Their ultimate goal is to ensure resource optimization and a circular economy by recycling waste with the nearest recycler / refurbisher. Their customer base consists of corporate businesses, institutions, hospitals, and industries.

Initial journey

As a lifelong environmentalist, Iram has spent many weekends organizing recycling drives and public awareness campaigns with LCI, RTI, and FICCI Flo. However, as the Head of Operations for an Educational Institution, he was responsible for the bulk purchase and disposal of computers and laptops. During a trip to Delhi, she witnessed underage children dismantling e-waste with their bare hands. where he discovered numerous loopholes in the E waste recycling industry. That’s when she decided to take the plunge and create something truly beneficial to the recycling industry.

In November 2019, he launched E Waste Social in response to it. It is a B2B technology platform offering waste aggregation, recycling, carbon footprint reduction, and CSR, along the entire value chain.

Aditya was already working on an idea for optimizing electronic assets, which aids in the efficient refurbishing and recycling of e waste. Iram collaborated with him to achieve the common goal because there were synergies. They decided to take the plunge and build the platform full-time as there was an urgent need for the recycling eco system.

Future prospects/ outlook

E Waste Social platform and recycler eco systems can address the pain points of e waste, metal scrap, automobile waste, and textile waste generated while manufacturing garments in the fashion and lifestyle industry.

The cutting stage of garment manufacturing is responsible for the majority of pre-consumer fabric waste. Fabric selvedges and leftover fabric scraps are examples of pre-consumer waste generated on factory floors during cutting and the manufacturing process of apparel making. E Waste Social will connect them to the nearest recyclers, ensuring recycling as well as circularity and resource optimisation.

E Waste Social has successfully managed electronic waste and is now expanding into textile / garment waste to ensure that waste is used efficiently during the manufacturing process and is not dumped in landfills.

E Waste Social hopes to establish a platform for exchanging and recycling used clothing while purchasing new clothing. The global textile market is expected to reach USD 1,041.8 billion in 2021, up from USD 1000.3 billion in 2020. This will ensure that used clothing is recycled efficiently and does not end up in landfills.

The consumer will receive nominal benefits / incentives for recycling as a result of the exchange. It would assist retailers and manufacturers in meeting their extended producer responsibility by ensuring that the material could be recycled and reused and used back in manufacturing .

The World Photography Organisation announces today the shortlisted photographers in the Student competition and new information about photographic projects by Sony Student Grant 2019 recipients. Also included are details of photographers shortlisted in the Youth competition. Works by Student and Youth shortlists and Student Grant recipients will go on display as part of the Sony World Photography Awards 2020 exhibition at Somerset House this April.

STUDENT COMPETITION SHORTLIST

The Student shortlistfeatures bodies of work by ten students at leading higher education institutions from across the world. Students were challenged to submit a series of five to ten images responding to two different briefs. All ten shortlisted photographers have won Sony digital imaging equipment to help complete their project with the Student Photographer of the Year winner due to receive €30,000 worth of Sony photography equipment for their institution.

The first brief Invisible Lines asked students to engage with the stories of people trying to break invisible barriers and structures whether natural, social or intellectual. Reyad Abedin’s (Bangladesh, Counter Foto – A Center for Visual Arts), The Name of My City is Dust and Smoke and Life features images of his native city Dhaka in which rapid infrastructure development and the eroded boundaries between nature and manmade constructions has had a devastating effect on the ecological balance of the environment in and around the city. For her project The Truth is in The Soil, Ioanna Sakellaraki (Greece, Royal College of Art) dwelled with the traditional communities of female professional mourners, or moirologists, inhabiting the Mani peninsula in Greece. Responding to personal grief and loss, Sakellaraki’s images depict the silhouettes of the mourning women projected against abstract backdrops which convey our relationship to and acceptance of death.

The second brief, Sustainability Now,tasked students with producing a body of work connected to environmental sustainability. Highlights include Guardians by Fangbin Chen (China Mainland, Qilu University of Technology), which records efforts by the photographer’s local community to contain the spread of coronavirus. Referencing the predation of wild animals as the likely source of the epidemic, Chen’s photographs urge people to reconsider their relationship to the natural world. In Roots of Cause, Arantza Sánchez Reyes (Mexico, LCI Monterrey) reflects on the efforts of individuals living in Monterrey, Mexico, known as one of the most polluted cities in Latin America, to strike a renewed balance with nature by practicing a more sustainable lifestyle.

Other featured students include: Micaela del Sol Angulo (Peru, Centro de la Imagen), Robin Ansart (France, Ecole Nationale Supérieure Louis-Lumière), Amy Davis (South Africa, CityVarsity Cape Town), Ashley Tofa (New Zealand, The University of Auckland), Tobia Faverio (Italy, Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti) and Chip Skingley (UK, University of the West of England – Bristol).

This year’s Student shortlist was judged by Tim Clark, curator, writer and Editor in Chief 1000 Words.

The resulting projects will be exhibited at the Sony World Photography Awards 2020 exhibition and include:

We Reap What We Sow by Joel Davies depicts at the work of the Freightliners Farm, a charity operating in the borough of Islington, London – the most densely populated district in the UK.

Cellular Culture by Sam Delaware features innovative research undertaken by JUST Inc. a food manufacturing company based in San Francisco, looking to turn to lab grown meat to mitigate societies’ impact on earth’s natural resources. Green Copenhagen by Tobias Kobborg Kristensen features the efforts and initiatives by the city’s officials and residents towards reaching their goal of becoming the first carbon neutral capital by 2025.

For her shortlisted portrait Kolton Almany (USA, 16yrs, Portraiture, October 2019) decided to photograph her model in a library setting to represent the various chapters and stories in people’s lives. Hsien-Pang Hsieh (Taiwan Region, 19yrs, Street Photography, November 2019) uses his image, of a man seemingly walking hurriedly but in fact standing still, to comment on the intensive pace of life and encourage others to slow down from time to time. Liam Moynihan’s (USA, 17yrs, Open Call, December 2019) high contrast black & white photograph features the dark outlines of three boys playing ‘roofball’ at a summer camp, Worton, Maryland.

French soccer reels from violence in stadiums as fans return

PARIZ

After a year of soccer in empty stadiums the return of supporters this season should have been a cause for celebration, but France is reeling from a series of incidents involving fans in and around Ligue 1 games.

The latest came on Wednesday when supporters invaded the pitch and flares were thrown at the game between Angers and Marseille, while stones were thrown at a bus taking Bordeaux fans to their match in Montpellier, with 16 suffering minor injuries.

These incidents come after last weekend's northern derby between Lens and Lille was overshadowed by a pitch invasion that delayed the start of the second half.

Riot police intervened when dozens of Lens supporters stormed the pitch at half-time to confront Lille fans, while both sets of supporters hurled seats at each other over a partition wall.

Lens have been ordered to play home matches behind closed doors until further notice, denying them of the crowd that usually creates one of the best atmospheres in France at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis.

Previously Nice were docked one point after the abandonment of their game against Mediterranean rivals Marseille on August 22.

Nice were also ordered to play three home games behind closed doors at the Allianz Riviera, where Marseille's Dimitri Payet was hit by a bottle thrown from the crowd and supporters streamed onto the pitch as a melee ensued involving players, staff, fans and stewards.

The abandoned game will be replayed at a neutral ground next month, behind closed doors.

"Certain clubs managed in the past to put an end to this unacceptable hooliganism," said Jean-Michel Blanquer, France's Minister of National Education, Youth and Sports, in an interview with news channel LCI following the trouble in Angers, which led to two arrests on Thursday.

"There are people who need to be banned from stadiums in future for this behavior. "We need to be firm. These people are damaging the image of the sport."

The incidents certainly don't help French soccer as it seeks to capitalize on the arrival of Lionel Messi at Paris Saint-Germain.

Nor does playing matches in empty stadiums, but the French league has little alternative.

Fans have been allowed back into games this season with no limits on capacity, as long as those attending can show they are either fully vaccinated against Covid-19 or have recently tested negative.

The trouble began on the opening weekend, when Marseille's Valentin Rongier was hit on the head by a bottle at Montpellier, leading to a 10-minute delay.

It has all led to much soul-searching in France, and it may be that many are using the return to the charged atmospheres of soccer grounds to release pent-up frustrations from a year of coronavirus restrictions.

Then again, the incidents have not been replicated in neighboring countries.
