Skay-Navarre’s new range of LGBT positive apparel is breaking traditional themes of rainbow coloured symbols with bright graphic illustrations. The printed T-Shirts feature colourful block prints of same-sex and multi-racial couples, along with same-sex parent families celebrating diversity in all its forms.
Created and designed by UK based illustrator, author and entrepreneur Maria Navarre, the simple but impactful designs provide an all-inclusive apparel option for those who often feel underrepresented in society. With a dash of personal flair, the designs are all inspired by real-life people that Navarre has encountered. She places LGBT couples, families and drag queens in everyday situations – walking together, holding hands, embracing a pregnant bump – reminding us all that families come in all shapes and sizes.
While many companies ramp up production of LGBT merchandise throughout the summer months in line with global pride festivals, Skay-Navarre understands that pride is for life, not just for summer. Comfortable design and shape ensure the t-shirts can be worn all year round as a symbol of solidarity with the LGBT community or as a representation of the self and your lived experience.
“For me, inclusive, truthful representation is so important,” says Navarre, “I wanted to harness my love of illustration in a fun way that could have a positive impact on others. I wanted to find a way of creating something meaningful that says to the marginalised, we see you, we hear you, we accept you.”
Popularity for Navarre’s illustrations has grown thanks to a loyal following and a solid social media presence. It has provided the opportunity for her to launch her business Skay-Navarre with the goal of sharing her designs with a broader audience. The line of comfortable, cotton based unisex t-shirts is simply one of the avenues through which she expresses her art.
The apparel forms part of a broader line of homeware and greeting cards also designed by Navarre. Each product is as unique as the individual it represents. The whole line is infused with cheeky humour that celebrates life and difference. From mugs to stickers, there are plenty of options for customers to find the perfect inclusive gift for friends, families or partners. The range also includes graphic t-shirts with lively phrases and more general cute illustrations, meaning that there is something for everyone.
“We want to break the mould of bland, uniform LGBT themed gifts with something new and exciting”, adds Navarre. “We want to continue to innovate and push the bounds of LGBT design for everyone.”
The complete line of products is available at www.skay-navarre.com. Shipping is available worldwide, and customers are invited to get in touch if they have any questions about the product.

Oz DelFoss, The genius Entrepreneur just bought a Limited edition piece of Albert Einstein Art.
He has the Certificate of Authenticity.
Albert Einstein is rumored to be one of Oz DelFoss’ role models. So, it makes sense that Mr. DelFoss would buy it.
Although the price he paid isn’t known. He says he will frame it and sell it for $89,000. Making this piece of art a must buy for any collector or Albert Einstein Fan.
Oz DelFoss was born on September 30th, 2002 in Long Beach, California. To a mother who accidentally got pregnant with me. Who just got out of the military. His father abandoned him.
He moved to a place called Thousand Oaks, California where he and his Mom were sleeping in a car because they couldn’t afford an apartment.
At that time he was really angry at life. So, he wanted to do something about it. It was then he decided that he was going to be something great at something. So, he started coming up with ideas in my head to change the world.
Throughout school he got bullied a lot because he was different. In elementary school he got expelled because he brought a pocket knife to school. Things got really ugly for him. He had to go to court and everything. He felt like he was a criminal. He had to educate himself by reading articles on educational websites. He always knew school wasn’t for me. So, he dropped out of high school.
He and his mother were finally living in an apartment and his mother noticed there were some things odd about him. She took him to a Dr. and he got diagnosed with autism.
Today: he is considered to have one of the greatest minds in the world. He is considered Creative, Brilliant, Unique and is highly respected by people around the globe.
He also runs his own podcast called My Universe With Oz DelFoss.

Ocala, FL – August 30, 2021 – Dr. A. Joseph Layon published an article in the BMJ Journals about Delirium, a form of acute brain dysfunction presenting as altered mental status, and impairment of memory, emotion, thinking, perception and behavior, which develops over hours to days and is seen in 20% – 80% of adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients, depending on the diagnostic method used and severity of illness.
Delirium diagnosis is often missed, as only about 25% of patients experiencing this disorder are hyperactive; more prevalent is hypoactive delirium: patients appearing sedated and responding slowly to instructions or questions. Rarer still, mixed hyperactive-hypoactive delirium patients may be seen. There is also subsyndromal delirium, representing an intermediate state—not normal and yet not fully developed delirium.
Delirium can lead to serious complications including increased length of ICU stay and increased readmission, institutionalization, and mortality rates. If not diagnosed or treated, delirium may lead to may lead to irreparable and delayed cognitive failure.
“The ICU Reader Program was born as a service project, using volunteers, in which we hoped to identify a decrease in delirium days — the ‘signal’ — that would prove, or at least suggest we were right about, our hypothesis,” stated Dr. Layon.
Readers were enrolled through the Volunteer Services Department, undergoing infection control and confidentiality training. The program was composed of 11 Readers, mostly high school and college students, and ran from January 2017 to August 2017; patient data analyzed for the study were collected between July and August 2017.
The program was designed and implemented and principally managed by Dr. Layon and his colleague, S. Jordan Reif, now a graduate student.
Students were recruited due to their willingness to volunteer. Each day, the volunteer asked the ICU Charge Nurse which patient they felt would be most suitable for reading and/or companionship.
Readers would then ask the patient — or surrogate if the patient was unable to interact — if they desired to be read to. When the answer was positive, the Reader would commonly spend 30 – 40 min reading and/or talking to the patient; between two and three patients, individually, were read to each day by each volunteer.
“We averaged 20–40 patients being read-to or talked-with weekly at the height of the program.” Books used included the Bible (Old and New Testaments), the Koran, a local newspaper or one of several novels (e.g., To Kill a Mockingbird or Sherlock Holmes detective novels). Some of the intubated and mechanically ventilated patients longed for more interaction, so notes were written on whiteboards or paper, and passed between the patient and Reader. Some patients desired only companionship”, noted Dr. Layon.
The ICU Reader Program was a controlled, non-randomized pilot study. The presence of a signal showing reduction of total delirium days in the cohort, as well as delirium days per patient, suggests that reading to, and/or talking with, patients in the ICU may be an effective, simple and low-cost intervention. As a service project and a research pilot, the ICU Reader Program was well-designed and successfully implemented; further randomized, controlled, and multi-centered studies are needed to ensure the validity of the findings.
An ICU Reader Program appears to decrease risk for, and duration of, delirium in adult ICU patients. Whether this effect is related to the reading itself or simple companionship, as well as the impact of comorbidities, age, gender and medications, is unclear.
The latest from the Austin, TX band is a thrilling mix of classic rock, blues, and Americana.
In his long and award winning career, Jason Davis has earned a reputation as a true individual. Effortlessly bouncing between genres, he turns his diverse influences into an eclectic and exceptionally compelling sound. On his latest collection with the Jason Davis Band, he continues to break new ground, exploring adventurous soundscapes while staying true to the authentic storytelling that has endeared him to his fanbase.
Lead single ‘GFY’ encapsulates everything that makes Jason special. With an evocative vocal performance from Jason Davis front and center, Jason and company unleash a set of memorable hooks that will hang around in listeners’ minds for days.
As the album progresses, we hear several different sides to Jason’s personality. The romantic longing of ‘Nobody Told Me’ allows him to show off his gift for making unusual chord progressions palatable for mass audiences. Over a guitar riff that reveals his love of classic rock, the track pays tribute to the greats of guitar rock while pushing the genre into bold new territory.
Jason continues to flex his hard rock muscles on the confrontational ‘Tell Me No Lies.’ As his band settles into a fist pumping slow groove, singer Holden Moyer delivers one of the album’s most memorable vocal performances. Part bluesman, part swaggering rocker, he is a singer capable of commanding the attention of his audience. Equally impressive is Kris Kelly’s soaring guitar solo that marks the track’s climax. Listeners who lament the lack of hard rock in modern music will find a lot to love.
‘Which Way To Go,’ sung by Kris Kelly, provides one of the album’s highlights. A raucous ode to wild nights out on the town, it is a shot of pure adrenaline, and a reminder of the live music experience we’ve all been missing. When live music finally does make a full return, ‘Which Way To Go’ is the type of tune that will have audiences packing venues to rock out with their friends.
‘Walking Disaster’ delivers another virtuosic display of guitar pyrotechnics before evolving into a dramatic rock odyssey. Jason and his bandmates and Dennis Munoz are masters of tension and release, always keeping things interesting with shifting dynamics and harmonies. The rhythm section fulfills its duties perfectly, providing the energy and adrenaline Jason needs to power his way through the song.
Jason recently signed with Celebration Records, LLC, an independent record label based in Nashville, Tennessee. Given the label’s unwavering commitment to promoting diverse artists from across the country, it is no surprise that Jason and his group feel right at home. Since signing to Celebration, they have been on a creative hot streak, writing, performing, and recording songs at breakneck speed.
In a world of throwaway records where rock music often struggles for attention, The Jason Davis Band is a diamond in the rough. ‘1 Minute To Midnight’ is a reminder of the vital power of rock and roll, one that will be welcomed by fans across the country.
‘1 Minute To Midnight’ is available everywhere Sep. 10, 2021

Quantum Fleet Technology (QFT) (https://www.QuantumFleetTechnology.com) is announcing the release of the Quantum Core Mass Spectrometer the world’s first measurement device able to accurately report in real time the full emissions spectra for all commercial vehicles.
Any global sustainability strategy must include a path to better emissions management for commercial trucking because it is an essential service that is used to deliver food, medical supplies, and other commercial freight and due to the land mass of the US and Canada is the exclusive method of transport for over 80% of the people consuming these products and services. Today there is no way to measure the full emissions spectra of the moving vehicles to understand both the footprint of gHg being created and how mitigation steps that clients are taking to reduce these numbers are being affected.
Due to the volume of emissions created by commercial trucking there has been regulations placed on the OEM’s of the truck and truck engines to create a more robust emissions system that reduces the gHg resulting from the use of these trucks but there is no method of understanding how these standards translate to actual emissions levels on real trucks traveling on real routes.
Because of the different conditions the trucks are driving and the different models of trucks and dramatically different technology in the emissions systems a single standard was set to measure commercial truck emissions worldwide by the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF).
“To truly impact sustainability in logistics, however, must come with a recognition that the standards for measurement are an oversimplification.” Christopher Grossman, President and Chief Operations Officer Quantum Fleet Technology “To impact emissions and overall sustainability it all starts with a good baseline and understanding what our emissions are today. On moving assets such as large trucks traveling at 65 mph, up to 20 hours a day, 150,000 miles a year, and exhaust that reaches 1000 degrees this is a major challenge. At Quantum Fleet Technology we have a passionate development and production team lead by Professor Ian Hunter, and Dr. Brian Hemond who patented the technology of Variable Resolution Portable Mass Spectrometry.”
“With Quantum Fleet Technology’s patented Micro Mass Spectrometer, we have created a variable resolution portable measuring device that is small enough to be mounted on mobile assets such as commercial vehicles. This self-calibrating, self-contained, and portable device is cost effective enough to install in every commercial truck to accurately measure real-time, for the first time, the exhaust spectra from truck emissions. Furthermore, it requires no operational knowledge by the driver or fleet owner.” – Professor Ian Hunter, Quantum Fleet Technology, Hatsopoulos Professor of Mechanical Engineering Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“The interpretation of the data will be invaluable as we trace and track the changes in emission throughout the entire journey of a trucks trip and life in service. We will all learn how different diesel fuel mixtures, driving behavior, weather conditions, and traffic effect the air composition. This insight will even allow logistics organizations to make decisions about items such as preventative maintenance and service before problems arise. The potential saving and safety improvements of early detection of engine anomalies will be both a cost savings and peace of mind for all involved in the operations of logistics equipment including large commercial trucks.”
With an accuracy of 8 parts per billion and made it both size effective and cost effective to be placed on all commercial vehicles. That combined with real time data transfer via cellular data connection and auditable data report make the real time measurement of moving commercial trucks available. These measurements are for the entire composition of emissions which include not just Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide. But also, the other key emissions required to correctly calculate CO2e. These include Methane, Hydrofluorocarbon Gases, Perfluorocarbon Gases, and Sulfur Hexafluoride. The reading is done after all emissions treatment is done giving truck owners the knowledge of their true emissions values for each of these gases and these results are processed and certified by the scientist at Quantum Fleet Technology to allow companies to enter this data directly into their appropriate Emissions Registry or for use in Public Emissions Reporting Databases.
Logistics companies will be able to see how newer model year trucks can improve harmful emissions by up to 95% and see this information in data that is publicly recorded providing a platform to compare their efforts to reduce gHg by selecting and properly maintaining a newer fleet of clean burning diesel engines.
“We are delighted to work with Quantum as an important member of The Climate Registry community and as a champion sponsor of TCR’s Net-zero Portal. Their leadership in advancing GHG measurement and reporting in the logistics industry is critical to helping us meet our climate goals.” – Amy Holm, Executive Director, The Climate Registry
“The real-world data provided by the Quantum Fleet Emissions Measurement Systems will help the industry make data-driven decisions on servicing and fleet upgrades and ensure that they feel prepared to publish their data to public greenhouse gas (GHG) data registries like The Climate Registry’s. With the Quantum Fleet Q-Core system, those numbers are accurate and represent the efforts taken to reduce their emissions through improved truck technology.” – Alexandra MacMurchie, Senior Vice President Operations, Quantum Fleet Technology.
Quantum Fleet Technology believes that logistics organizations are vital to driving climate ambition forward and is working to build capacity in the sector. Starting with the Micro Mass Spectrometer, Quantum Fleet Technologies has built a powerful tool that will enable accurate measurement of real-world trucking emissions at scale for the first time and will provide logistics organizations with the data to empower them to set and achieve their emissions reduction targets.
The Climate Registry (TCR) is a non-profit organization governed by U.S. states and Canadian provinces and territories. TCR designs and operates voluntary and compliance greenhouse gas (GHG) reporting programs globally, and assists organizations in measuring, reporting, and verifying (MRV) the carbon in their operations so they can manage and reduce it. TCR also builds GHG MRV capacity in sub-national and national governments and is spearheading innovative new projects such as the Water-Energy Nexus Registry.
