Though versions of the story differ: with some saying Persephone was tricked into eating pomegranate seeds to be trapped in the underworld, and some saying she willingly chose to eat the seeds. Pomegranate's have a hard exterior that is tough to crack. Your hard shell is a natural protectant and keeps you safe from those that only wish to use you. Internally you are rich with bounties. You believe in living your life passionately and vibrantly. The idea of surrendering to a fate of being confined to anything, whether it be a relationship, a job, or family dynamic where you are not happy and lack agency is a terrifying prospect. It is fears like this which also prevent you from opening up and showing vulnerability to those around you. However, like the pomegranate whose seeds sparkle like gemstones, you hide inside you incredible beauty that only the most worthy deserve to see.

　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　𝕷acrime amare scivolavano lungo le gote di quel bambino rannicchiato nel proprio lettino. Sentiva le membra pesanti, come se uno sei suoi camion con cui amava giovare gli fosse passato sopra lasciandolo senza forze. Le gambe erano molli, piegate in modo da portarle al petto, ma se avesse voluto correre da qualche parte, non sarebbero state di grande aiuto, di non certo non sarebbero state in grado di reggere quel peso, quasi irrisorio. Eppure quel lettino così piccolo era diventato il luogo in cui tutti i suoi incubi si trasformavano in realtà. 　　　Aveva imparato il rumore che facevano le assi di legno sul pavimento nel cuore della notte quando i passi diventavano sempre più vicini. Aveva imparato a trattenere il respiro ogni volta il cigolio della propria porta mostrava uno spiraglio di luce, ed aveva imparato che le lacrime erano il giusto modo per buttare fuori ogni cosa. Lo sentiva nelle membra, nella pelle che avvertiva ancora il respiro di quell'uomo che doveva essere parte della famiglia e non il suo incubo costante. Lo sentiva nel dolore che provava in quella parte così profonda di sé che era impossibile non avere le lacrime agli occhi, eppure nessun singhiozzo si udiva nella sua cameretta. Cercava protezione il piccolo Ethan, la stessa protezione che avrebbe dovuto dargli quel padre che non si rendeva nemmeno conto che, ad ogni giorno che passava, il bambino diventava sempre più taciturno, sempre più schivo nei confronti di quel mondo che aveva ancora così tanto da dargli. 　　　Solamente una persona avrebbe potuto rendersi conto di quanto Ethan stesse cambiando, di quanto la spensieratezza non facesse, a poco a poco, più parte di lui, ma quella stessa persona era ormai andata. Non avrebbe mai visto i suoi progressi negli studi, i suoi occhi cerulei velarsi ogni qualvolta sentiva quella canzone ricordargli la donna che lo aveva messo al mondo, e non avrebbe mai visto gli scenari peggiori che una madre potrebbe mai assistere. Il dolore di quell'assenza faceva sì che ogni singolo giorno fosse un ostacolo da superare, un macigno da portare dentro di sé per diventare grande, ecco ciò che si diceva. Ecco ciò che gli diceva. 　　« Sei un ometto, ormai Ethan... E' questo che diceva sempre la tua mamma, mh? I bambini non piangono, shh. Non vorrai mica che tuo padre scopra il nostro piccolo segreto. » 　　　Avvertiva ogni singola carezza, le dita ruvide e callose che accarezzavano il volto del bimbo, le coperte che si scostavano per far posto ad un uomo il cui intento era solamente da condannare. Sentiva i calzoni del pigiamino abbassarsi, il fiato caldo, ed un respiro che diventava sempre più rapido, ma era quell'odore rancido a farlo rabbrividire ogni volta. Sentiva il respiro diventare più forte, ansimi di un uomo malato che facevano capolino al vicino al suo orecchio, mentre i pugnetti stretti non facevano altro che stringere il lembo di lenzuolo che riusciva a recuperare. Lo recuperava ogni volta, ed ogni volta pregava che tutto passasse sempre più in fretta. 　　« Passerà in un attimo, Ethan... Sei così 𝑝𝑖𝑐𝑐𝑜𝑙𝑜, shh. » 　　　Era su quella promessa che faceva conto il bambino, su quelle quattro parole che continuava a ripetersi nel sentire il suo corpo venir violato, con forza eppure con una delicatezza totalmente innaturale. 𝑃𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑎̀ 𝑖𝑛 𝑢𝑛 𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑜 era ciò che si ripeteva Ethan ogni volta che vedeva quel volto comparire nei suoi incubi.

Riservato e a volte perfino indecifrabile, custodiva i momenti di solitudine come attimi di una serenità e di una pace che difficilmente avrebbe fatto sua. Una ricerca costante che era diventata utopia con il passare degli anni, e che difficilmente sarebbe giunta. 　　　Turbinii di pensieri continuavano ad animare una mente acuta, perspicace, impavida di fronte ai cambiamenti, dimostrando una maturità tale da averlo portato lontano, certamente, ma che indubbiamente l'aveva reso semplicemente più solo.

Meet The NCAA’s 5-Foot-9 Scoring Machine

No state has a glossier tradition in men’s college basketball than North Carolina. It has produced 13 national championships.1 It is home to the sport’s fiercest rivalry: Duke vs. North Carolina. It has seen more than a hundred All-Americans and dozens of Hall of Famers cut their teeth on its courts, including Tim Duncan, Vince Carter and Michael Jordan.

You might think that the state’s all-time leading scorer is one of those all-time greats. But he’s actually a current player. He’s not a Tar Heel or a Blue Devil or even a Demon Deacon. He’s a Fighting Camel in Buies Creek, North Carolina. Far from the spotlight, Chris Clemons, a senior at Campbell University in the Big South Conference, is making college-basketball history in a state that’s long on it.

As a high schooler, Clemons was an all-state athlete in Raleigh, smack dab in the backyard of the ACC. When the power conferences overlooked him, Campbell didn’t. In fact, it sometimes brought the entire coaching staff to watch him hoop. “I told him when I was sitting in his living room that I thought he’d be the all-time leading scorer in Campbell history,” Campbell head coach Kevin McGeehan told me.

Only five players in NCAA history have scored more than Clemons has. And his 3,106 points have not come easy: Clemons is 5-foot-9, at least 4 inches shorter than each of his teammates. But that disadvantage wasn’t a problem for McGeehan. “I’ve never thought twice about his height,” he said.

Chris Clemons is the shortest of the scoring greats

With Clemons on the court, the Fighting Camels score 1.12 points per possession, according to Hoop Lens — or at a rate that would be among the best in the country if maintained over an entire season. When he sits, the team scores 0.84 points per possession, or at a rate that would rank around 300th if maintained. Without Clemons, the team’s effective field goal percentage drops more than 10 percentage points, and the team’s turnover percentage spikes almost 7 percentage points. As a pick-and-roll ball handler, he has scored more points this season than everyone else on the team combined, according to data provided by Synergy Sports.

This season, Clemons is scoring 30.1 points per game, tied for the second-highest mark by any player since 1992. Charles Jones in 1996-97 was the last player to average more than 30 points per game over a season, while Central Michigan’s Marcus Keene came close in 2016-17, hitting 29.97. Clemons has scored in double figures in 111 consecutive games.2

He can also take the roof off an arena. Behind a 44-inch vertical3 and sculpted physique, Clemons has made a habit of dunking on defenders. Hard. Of Campbell’s 22 dunks this season, he has eight. “It’s like, ‘You’re 5-9!?'” McGeehan said, bewildered.4

McGeehan hasn’t wasted a second of his point guard’s eligibility. Clemons has played at least 80 percent of team minutes each season on campus. As a senior, he’s taking on 93.1 percent.

Over the past three seasons, Clemons has finished no lower than seventh nationally in KenPom’s percentage of possessions used metric, which measures how many possessions a player used while on court, assigning credit or blame to the player when his actions resulted in an ended possession. He leads the country this season, absorbing 37.5 percent of the team’s possessions. “Obviously,” McGeehan noted, “he’s heavily relied upon.”

Clemons is leaned on heavily

The NCAA men’s basketball players with the highest share of their team’s possessions that season, since 2016-17

Season Player Team Yr. Possession Height Weight 2017-18 Trae Young Oklahoma Fr 38.5% 6’2″ 180 lb. 2016-17 Ronnie Boyce San Francisco Sr 37.9 6’3″ 158 2017-18 Tiwian Kendley Morgan St. Sr 37.8 6’5″ 190 2016-17 Jordan Washington Iona Sr 37.6 6’8″ 235 2018-19 Chris Clemons Campbell Sr 37.5 5’9″ 180 2016-17 Michael Weathers Miami (Ohio) Fr 37.5 6’2″ 161 2018-19 Lamine Diane Cal St. Northridge Fr 37.1 6’7″ 205 2016-17 Chris Clemons Campbell So 37.0 5’9″ 180 2016-17 Marcus Keene Central Michigan Jr 37.0 5’9″ 175 2017-18 Roddy Peters Nicholls St. Sr 36.8 6’4″ 195 2018-19 Ja Morant Murray St. So 36.2 6’3″ 175 2018-19 Jordan Davis Northern Colorado Sr 36.2 6’2″ 185 2018-19 Justin James Wyoming Sr 36.0 6’7″ 190 2017-18 D’Marcus Simonds Georgia St. So 35.8 6’3″ 200 2017-18 Ethan Happ Wisconsin Jr 35.6 6’10” 235 2017-18 Milik Yarbrough Illinois St. Jr 35.5 6’6″ 230 2018-19 Markus Howard Marquette Jr 35.3 5’11” 175 2018-19 Ethan Happ Wisconsin Sr 35.2 6’10” 237 2016-17 Tiwian Kendley Morgan St. Jr 35.1 6’5″ 190 2017-18 Chris Clemons Campbell Jr 34.9 5’9″ 185

Should his average hold, Clemons will finish the season with a 38.9 percent usage rate, which would give him three of the top 25 marks produced by players since 2009, the first year for which data is available.5 His career usage rate (35.9 percent) figures to edge former BYU star Jimmer Fredette for the top spot by any player over the past decade.

There have actually been plenty of undersized, high-usage players on college courts. Clemons is just relied upon much more than any of the rest — and has been since he arrived on campus. Since 2008, there have been 450 seasons that saw a player shorter than 5-foot-10 appear in 20 games and play at least 40 percent of team minutes, according to BartTorvik.com. Of that sample, Clemons is in line to finish with the first, third, fourth and 23rd highest usage rates.

Let’s remove the height restriction. Given those same qualifications, since 2008 there have been 522 seasons of a player producing a usage rate exceeding 30 percent. Of that pool, Clemons is on track to post two usage rates that rank in the top 15 and another one that ranks in the top 45.

This season, only one player6 has taken a higher share of team shots than Clemons’s 39.3 percent.7 This would be the fourth consecutive season that Clemons has finished in the top 25 in percentage of team shots taken, a feat of production that has never been matched since KenPom began tracking such metrics.8

The Fighting Camels made their only NCAA Tournament appearance in 1992, five years before Clemons was born. This season, Clemons has Campbell roaring into shape to make a run at a second, provided the team wins its conference tournament.

Which is to say: Clemons has the perennial green light to do everything. “I always had one,” Clemons said. “But I don’t remember it being like this.”

Have coaches ever told him not to shoot? “I haven’t heard that lately,” he said.

Is there anything McGeehan wouldn’t trust Clemons to do? “Probably give me a haircut.”

Clemons’s numbers are more impressive when you consider the system under which he plays. Watching him, you get the sense that he could get to the rim or drain a jump shot around 10 seconds before he actually does. McGeehan runs a hybrid version of Pete Carril’s Princeton Offense that relies on quick ball movement and constant motion. It also typically suffocates tempo, as the Princeton Offense is ostensibly designed to limit huge production by either team. Campbell has ranked outside the top 190 in average offensive possession length each season since 2013. This season, it ranks 265th in adjusted tempo. Campbell averages 68.4 possessions per 40 minutes, which is tied for 238th nationally. North Carolina, for instance, averages nearly eight more possessions per game.

Despite all of his success, Clemons may not ever reach the next level. To be sure, there have been other players under 5-foot-10 to reach the NBA: Muggsy Bogues, Earl Boykins, Calvin Murphy, Spud Webb. There have even been a few who have done it since the turn of the century: Isaiah Thomas, Kay Felder, Nate Robinson. Clemons, who has declared for the NBA draft after each of the past two seasons only to return to campus, is unlikely to join them via that route.

The irony is heavy: One of the greatest scorers of all time, in arguably the state with the richest college basketball tradition, plays just a short drive down the road from perhaps the most-talked-about college athlete of all time, for a team that packed in fewer than 2,000 fans per home game last season. The smallest guy on the court is dealt the largest offensive burden and has most of the team’s dunks. The pint-sized player with the larger-than-life impact.

“When it’s all said and done,” McGeehan said, “I’m probably going to go back and say, ‘Wow, did that really all just happen?’”

James Beard Foundation Announces 2019 Restaurant and Chef Semifinalists

New York, NY  (RestaurantNews.com)  The James Beard Foundation announced today its list of Restaurant and Chef Award semifinalists in advance of the 29th annual James Beard Awards. The prestigious group of semifinalists across all categories represents a wide collection of culinary talent, from exceptional chefs and dining destinations nationally and across ten different regions to the best new restaurants, outstanding bar, outstanding baker, and a rising star chefs 30 years of age or under. The full list of 2019 semifinalists can be reviewed at the end of the press release or directly at the James Beard Foundation website.

The Foundation will announce the final nominees for all Award categories during a press conference in Houston, hosted by James Beard Award–winning chef Hugo Ortega at his namesake Mexican restaurant, Hugo’s, on Wednesday, March 27th, 2019. The event will take place at 9:00 A.M. CT / 10:00 A.M. ET and will be streamed live online (details coming soon on the Foundation’s website) and the nominees will be live-tweeted via the James Beard Foundation Twitter feed at twitter.com/beardfoundation.

Overview of Restaurant and Chef Awards Process

The James Beard Foundation holds an online open call for entries beginning in mid-October of each year. Entries received, along with input solicited from an independent volunteer group of more than 250 panelists around the country, are reviewed by the Restaurant and Chef Committee to determine eligibility and regional representation. Based on the results and eligibility requirements for each award, the committee then produces a nominating ballot that lists the semifinalists in each of the 21 Restaurant and Chef Award categories. The list of semifinalists is then voted on by more than 600 judges from across the country to determine the final nominees in each category. The same group of judges, which comprises leading regional restaurant critics, food and wine editors, culinary educators, and past James Beard Award winners, then votes on the nominees to select the winners. Tabulations to determine the nominees and winners are done by independent auditors Lutz & Carr. The governing Awards committee, board of trustees, and staff of the James Beard Foundation do not vote, and the results are kept confidential until the presentation of winners in May. James Beard Awards policies and procedures can be reviewed at jamesbeard.org/awards/policies.

About the James Beard Foundation

The James Beard Foundation’s mission is to promote good food for good. For more than 30 years, the James Beard Foundation has highlighted the centrality of food culture in our daily lives. Through the James Beard Awards, unique dining experiences at the James Beard House and around the country, scholarships, hands-on learning, and a variety of industry programs that educate and empower leaders in our community, the Foundation has built a platform for chefs and asserted the power of gastronomy to drive behavior, culture, and policy change around food. To that end, the Foundation has also created signature impact-oriented initiatives that include our Women’s Leadership Programs, aimed at addressing the gender imbalance in the culinary industry; advocacy training through our Chefs Boot Camp for Policy and Change; and the James Beard Foundation Leadership Awards, which shine a spotlight on successful change makers. The organization is committed to giving chefs and their colleagues a voice and the tools they need to make the world more sustainable, equitable, and delicious for everyone.

Un'anima che portava con sé le cicatrici del passato, i ricordi dolorosi di un'infanzia che nessuno gli avrebbe mai più ridato indietro, eppure la gentilezza era sempre lì, tangibile come una carezza. Carezze che potevano essere così tanto delicate da apparire inconsistenti, come aria tra le dita, come labbra che sfioravano una carne calda, vibrante lasciando solamente un anelito di ricordo. Ma che fine facevano i ricordi? Essi venivano memorizzati nella parte più profonda dell'essere umano, incamerati in un luogo profondo del nostro cuore, per essere ripresi ogni volta che la mente lo necessitava. O semplicemente quando il nostro subconscio desiderava fare di testa propria. Perché era questo che sentiva il britannico, in quel momento, la mente desiderava scavare, portare a galla sensazioni che avrebbe dovuto far tacere, emozioni che erano lì a un tocco dai propri polpastrelli. Un corpo sinuoso si delineava nella notte più scura, linee femminee che diventavano gincane da cui non si sarebbe salvato in alcun modo, ed un respiro che gridava solamente pietà. Scivolava la di lui mano, accarezzando quella pelle calda, bagnata, di una donna che conosceva così tanto bene da averla memorizzata nella mente ma che divenne per entrambi una lenta tortur4. Accarezzò la curva piena del seno, per scivolare inesorabilmente dove tutto nasceva, disegnando linee immaginarie come se fosse la prima volta, come se in quel momento non avesse altro in mente che l'abisso del piacere. Stanco di fingere, stanco di dover indossare una maschera che era diventata una seconda pelle, diventava un tutt'uno con la sua anima scura, fatta di desideri carnali, di voglie sopite che ora gridavan a gran voce, e di un inesauribile voglia di libertà. ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ 　　ᴇᴛʜᴀɴ ʀᴀʟᴇɪɢʜ　　«　Fammi dimenticare ciò che la mente continua a ricordarmi, mostrami l'abisso, la sua strada attraverso il tuo corpo, attraverso il suo seno, le tue labbra e portami dove il respiro non è altro che un gemito che si leva nella notte.　» ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ Gemiti divennero sinfonia. Corpi che divennero un'unica entità, calore che prendeva vita attraverso i movimenti più intensi e lascivi, mostrando una ritrovata carnalità. Spoglio della maschera dell'uomo tutto d'un pezzo che tutti conoscevano, spoglio della maschera di psicologo attento al prossimo, spoglio perfino di quella bugia che ormai alimentava ogni dì, il britannico non era altro che carne. Carne in preda al desiderio, in preda alla lussuria ben sapendo che domani sarebbe stato semplicemente un altro giorno.

Unica condizione era andare avanti, immergersi in un presente carico di contraddizioni, carico di emozioni che non sapeva decifrare in modo definito mentre occhi cerulei non facevano altro che scandagliare un unico elemento: passione. Passione nel lavoro che portava avanti con determinazione, passione nella ricerca di quell'emozione vivida che sembrava smarrita, passione nel suo cuore avvolto dalla pietra. E ancora, passione che avrebbe potuto raggiungere e solcare le difese più impenetrabili, passione negli stessi volti che osservava di giorno in giorno. Allora perché quella sensazione di apatia lo rendeva così incostante? Così lontano da ciò che avrebbe voluto essere. Perché si sentiva alla deriva nelle proprie membra, in un corpo che racchiudeva i suoi demoni, l'oscurità che così tanto cercava di celare agli occhi altrui? E perché si sentiva come se, da un momento all'altro, tutto il mondo dovesse sgretolarsi dinnanzi ai suoi piedi? ㅤㅤ　　　 　 　　　 　　　　　　𝑇𝘩𝑒𝑠𝑒 𝑑𝑎𝑦𝑠 𝐼’𝑚 𝑏𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦𝑡𝘩𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡𝘩𝑎𝑡 𝐼 𝘩𝑎𝑡𝑒 　　　　　　𝑊𝑖𝑠𝘩𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑛𝑜𝑤 𝑖𝑡’𝑠 𝑡𝑜𝑜 𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒 　　　　　　𝑀𝑦 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑑 𝑖𝑠 𝑎 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝑡𝘩𝑎𝑡 𝐼 𝑐𝑎𝑛’𝑡 𝑒𝑠𝑐𝑎𝑝𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑔𝘩𝑜𝑠𝑡 ㅤㅤ　　　 　 　　　 　　　　　　𝑆𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑠 𝐼 𝑤𝑖𝑠𝘩 𝑡𝘩𝑎𝑡 𝐼 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝑤𝑖𝑠𝘩 𝑖𝑡 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑎𝑤𝑎𝑦 　　　　　　𝑂𝑛𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑦 𝑑𝑎𝑦 𝑤𝑖𝑡𝘩𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 　　　　　　𝑆𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑠 𝐼 𝑤𝑖𝑠𝘩 𝑡𝘩𝑎𝑡 𝐼 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝑠𝑒𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑑𝑎𝑦 　　　　　　𝑂𝑛𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑦 𝑑𝑎𝑦 ㅤㅤ　　　 　 　　　 　　　　　　𝑂𝘩, 𝐼’𝑚 𝑎 𝑤𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑘 𝑤𝑖𝑡𝘩𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝘩𝑒𝑟𝑒 　　　　　　𝑌𝑒𝑎𝘩, 𝐼’𝑚 𝑎 𝑤𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑘 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢’𝑣𝑒 𝑏𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝑔𝑜𝑛𝑒 　　　　　　𝐼’𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑝𝑢𝑡 𝑡𝘩𝑖𝑠 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑏𝑒𝘩𝑖𝑛𝑑 𝑚𝑒 　　　　　　𝐼 𝑡𝘩𝑖𝑛𝑘 𝐼 𝑤𝑎𝑠 𝑤𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑘𝑒𝑑 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑎𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑔 　　　　　　𝑌𝑒𝑎𝘩, 𝐼’𝑚 𝑎 𝑤𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑘 ㅤㅤ　　　 　 　　　 Chiudere gli occhi e lasciarsi avviluppare da quei demoni era un groviglio impossibile da sciogliere, un tutt'uno con la sua anima, come se si stesse addentrando in un bosco ove l'oscurità impregnava ogni singolo atomo di luce. Il candore dell'innocenza veniva catturato ed inglobato in un mondo in cui solamente il buio poteva predominare. Senza speranza alcuna, egli agiva nell'ombra, combatteva silenziosamente i propri demoni, gli incubi che lo tenevano sveglio di notte, e sì anche quegli affetti che spesso avevano fatto un passo indietro, affrontando, giorno dopo giorno, il disastro che era diventato. Perché non era altro che questo, un 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒐.
