Fort Lauderdale, FL – It’s an American tradition. Each year in the United States, we celebrate Father’s Day as a day when fathers and fatherhood is honored. We often share gifts to dads, granddads, and father figures to show our appreciation and spend time with them to highlight their love and caregiving nature as providers and protectors. Annually, the non-profit “Reading Pays More,” looks to acknowledge the contributions of fathers in the context of literacy and social activism.
The late George Floyd was a father of 5. He tragically lost his life when a police officer named Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for several minutes while he gasped for breath. Like so many African American fathers who have senselessly lost their lives to violence and unfortunate circumstances, Father’s day for their loved ones is a reminder of their absence.
“We often mark and honor solemn events with a moment of silence. Once again on Father’s Day, June 21, 2021, our organization is committed to honoring the minutes in which Mr. George Floyd tragically lost his life, through a positive call to action. We are asking fathers and father figures across the globe to share the experience of reading with a young person for several minutes to encourage the love of reading,” said Georgia Robinson, Founder of “Reading Pays More.”
RPM as its mission highlights the importance of parents reading with their children via various literary events and an ongoing social media campaign called Love Reading with Dad. The group encourages dads, granddads and uncles of all ages to share a picture of themselves reading a book with a child using the hashtag #lovereadingwithdad.
“We want to spread the word that reading together is not only fundamental, but it also helps create a strong parental bond,” said Robinson. And it is especially important for parents to read with their young boys,” she added.
Robinson is asking that fathers and father figures record a video or take a picture reading with a child/children before or on Father’s Day and post it on social media using the hashtags #lovereadingwithdad and #readforfloyd. Images can also be posted on the Reading Pay More Facebook or Instagram Page.

Although Role Playing Games began as a very niche hobby, one where small and isolated groups of friends gathered around the dining room table to live out epic dungeon quests or explore the far-flung space lanes, it quickly evolved into so much more. And today, it is part of a multi-media, multi-genre, multi-million-dollar, global phenomenon which takes in, not just the original RPG world but everything from TV franchises to games conventions, blockbuster film adaptations to video games and so much more besides.
But, for those of us still engaged in the traditional, social, and physical style of play, the one where people gather together, roll dice, and create narratives and explore ideas plucked for the collective imagination, finding a group of like-minded players can be as hard as ever. Yes, the internet has opened up many options to the modern gamer, people can play games over vast distances and there are so many ways of accessing all manner of adventures. But perhaps such competition has made things even harder for those who relish the personal touch, social interaction, and the more tangible experience.
So, if the question is “where do I go to find a group of people to sit down and game with?” The answer is RPG Game Find. Essentially, a global listing site, RPG Game Find provides a directory of gaming groups, and those looking for them, near and far. And using the site couldn’t be simpler. Just submit your post to the site and wait for those with similar gaming interests nearby to get in touch.
Of course, the term RPG is a broad label and covers myriad game genres from steampunk cultists to ancient warriors, from fleet-level space battles to the traditional fantasy dungeon delvers and everything in between. But it also caters for board games, collectable card games, table-top miniature battles and even those who like to fully inhabit their character and partake in Live Action Role Play. If it is escapist gaming of a more social nature, then you will find it here.
But the site aims to be so much more than that. It aims to be a forum and support mechanism for such groups acting a place where groups, gamers and those within the industry can share their experience, keep up to speed on the latest developments or perhaps, just hang out with people with the same interests.
So, whether you have an existing gaming group and are looking for fresh blood, are planning to set up a regular gaming session or are someone struggling to find a group to role play with, getting listed on RPG Game Find is the first step. What are you waiting for? Sign up today:
Thousand Times is back at it; this time with a new track debuting on a 808 Mafia beat tape! This marks the third time he has worked with the multi-platinum production team having previously co-produced a record named “G.O.A.T” with Big Fameus last year and was featured on the 2019 beat tape “Year Of The Producer 2”. 808 Mafia is an American record production and songwriting team, founded by record producers Southside and Lex Luger. 808 Mafia was founded in 2010 when rapper Waka Flocka Flamecame up with the idea of a production team, made of his frequent collaborators Lex Luger and Southside. The group quickly expanded, adding a number of upcoming and affiliated producers, and is currently signed to Flame’s label Brick Squad Monopoly. In addition to Waka Flocka Flame, 808 Mafia has produced tracks for many notable artists such as Gucci Mane, Drake, 21 Savage, Chief Keef, Young Thug, Juicy J, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Push T, Wiz Khalifa, Dj Khaled and more.
The music producer joined multi-platinum superproducer Wonder Arillo for an in-person session back in January. and the two cooked up a legendary track. The Atlanta-based studio is home for Wonder who has worked with A-list recording artists from 2 Chainz, to Killer Mike to Playaz Circle. The beat they made together-dubbed “Wavy World”-features crisp, clean instrumentation paired with a booming 808 bass amid frantic yet controlled hi-hats. The track which was originally destined for BeatStars to be licensed caught the ear of 808 Mafia affiliate Big Fameus who promptly added the track to his industry tastemaker beat tape”Lost & Found Vol 2” releasing June 13h on Spinrilla.
Recording artist, producer, tattoo artist and industry gatekeeper Big Fameus has been in the music industry for over a decade and has cultivated powerful and lucrative connections in the industry. He established the artist development platform “Who Got Next Up” to assist recording artists and producers in securing placements, developing their brand and much more. Big Fameus has produced records for Rich Homie Quan, Cash Money, Swae Lee & more.
Wonder Arillo is a veteran of the music industry and has graced Billboard Charts, contributed to multiple multi-platinum albums and produced the trap anthem “What You Know” by T.I. in collaboration with DJ Toomp. In addition to being a elite music producer, Wonder is also a lauded recording engineer. His engineering skills has been heard on records by Ludacris, Hot Boy Turk, and Boyz N’ Da Hood. Wonder’s pen game is also in-demand; he wrote for Rittz on his album “Top Of The Line”.
Thousand Times linked up with Wonder while mixing and entirely different record for a yet-to-be-announced superstar rapper. It was a last minute decision to make a record together and by the sounds of it it was for the best. After debuting on the 808 Mafia beat tape the instrumental will be shopped to artists in hopes of finding the perfect complimenting vocals. Be sure to follow each of these industry professionals on Instagram and follow along as the this future hit record progresses:

Author/Illustrator Paddy Donnelly Wins Gold Medal at IPPY Awards for The Vanishing Lake. The children’s book is based on a real lake that disappears and reappears every few days.
LOS ANGELES – June 11, 2021 – THE VANISHING LAKE, a children’s book written and illustrated by Paddy Donnelly, won a gold medal from the 2021 Independent Publishers Awards (IPPY) in the children’s picture books category. The IPPY awards recognize excellence in independent publishing and showcase the best books from North America and the English-speaking world.
THE VANISHING LAKE, published by Yeehoo Press, celebrates a young girl’s determination, a granddad’s wisdom, and the natural world’s fantastical wonders. Medalists were chosen from a variety of entries for exemplifying the daring spirit of independent publishing “to break new ground and bring about change, not only to the world of publishing but to our society.” The judges found THE VANISHING LAKE to be the most heartfelt, unique, outspoken, and experimental among all the entries in the children’s picture books category.
Donnelly is an Irish author and illustrator living in Belgium. He grew up on the northern coast of Ireland, surrounded by mythical stories of giants, magical creatures, and shape-shifting animals — all set in a stunning landscape from another time. This prompted his love for nature, animals, the sea, and storytelling. He creates his illustrations digitally but loves working with a textured, painterly approach. THE VANISHING LAKE is his debut author-illustrated picture book, based on a real lake close to his childhood home in Ireland.
“This story is based on a real place, close to where I grew up in Ballycastle in Ireland. It’s a lake called Loughareema, which actually does disappear and reappear every few days, depending on the weather. Growing up in Ireland, storytelling is an important part of life, so I was surrounded by myths and legends from a young age, and I think that’s had a big influence on what stories I like to write about,” Donnelly said.
The new brand name marks the beginning of a new chapter for the family-run company.
Las Vegas, Nevada – June 11th, 2021 – “Photogenic Hair Care” is a business with a life-long focus on providing high-quality hair care services. Today, the company is ready to begin a brand new chapter in its story, and it all starts with embracing a brand new name: PHamily Hair Care.
Owner and revolutionary haircare specialist Emery McClendon has always been passionate about finding new ways for people to take care of their hair, achieving beauty and wellness regardless of their background. What started as a hobby and something to cater to a personal need eventually became a full-on quest for Emery, who had been struggling to find the right hair products for many years – and not for lack of trying! He tried a wide range of products out there, but he actually couldn’t really find anything that would work well on his hair type in a very consistent and reliable way. The natural step forward for Emery was to look into developing his own formula. He embarked on a journey that will lead him to develop a deeper understanding of hair and what makes it healthy and lush. It didn’t take long for people to start noticing Emery’s formula. Suddenly, he was getting a lot of compliments and positive feedback on his hair, so much so that he started to give his solution out to family members and close friends. Their feedback also was quite amazing, and it was a strong sign for Emery. Given the fact that his social circle was extremely diverse, it actually meant that his formula worked wonders for all sorts of hair types and not just his own. Things took on a different level when Emery eventually realized that this product wasn’t just great for styling hair: it helped him fight the onset of male pattern baldness on different areas of his head, and he eventually noticed that hair in the bald spots (especially in the top-middle and his front hairline) had actually grown back after using his product extensively. The journey to perfect the formula didn’t start with Emery: you could almost say that he had haircare in his genes from the start since even his grandmother had a penchant for making homemade hair grease which was way better than all of the commercial products that were available at the time. Eventually, Emery took on the same attitude and continued to experiment and research ingredients, coming up with what would be his defining invention.
This was something bigger than Emery and his community: it was something worth sharing with the whole world, leading Emery to launch his company and set the bar higher from the get-go. These were the first seeds of what would become PHamily Hair Care!
Getting started was not easy, and it meant that Emery had to make a choice and risk everything. He had a settled life, with a very enviable job and a successful legal career. Many people in his position would think twice before shifting their focus on a venture that had no guarantees, but Emery knew that he had something special, and he wanted to do something that was more than starting a company. He wanted to make an impact in the lives of people who would undoubtedly benefit from his innovative creation. As a licensed attorney and a holder of five degrees (including two master’s and even a doctorate), Emery was no stranger to working under pressure and face new challenges. At the end of the day, he knew that this was going to be worth the leap of faith, and things fell into place when he started his company in 2017. At the time, the brand was known as Photogenic Hair Care, and Emery marketed his formula. The first month was kind of groundbreaking. Initially, the product sales were moderately low, but this is because the brand had to face a “learning curve” on the market’s part. Up until then, customers were not used to successful all-in-one hair care products. This is the kind of industry that pushes people to buy a plethora of related products, compartmentalizing items in order to drive more sales. All-in-one products were not as common, so most customers were still struggling to understand the concept that this one item was literally all they needed to buy, regardless of their type of hair. However, customers caught up very quickly, and by the company’s second year of activity, Emery was able to make well over a million dollars in annual sales. The most impressive thing is the fact that he had accomplished all of that without even relying on retailers since the business was based on direct-to-customer sales from the company’s website. Because of the sheer quality and effectiveness of Emery’s products, the brand built very strong relationships with many customers, who kept returning over and over. The word “Family” is very loaded, and it holds a strong emotional meaning for most people, including Emery, who still feels very connected with his grandmother and the roots of the ongoing passion for haircare in his family. The new name, PHamily Hair Care, also highlights that this product isn’t just for people of a certain hair type: it works so seamlessly for everyone and can therefore serve an entire family. With a single jar, users can style their hair, and at the same time, they can give their hair all the nutrients that they need in order to increase the wellness and health of their hair, not to mention fostering resilience and growth. It doesn’t matter whether you have straight hair, curls, twists, or dreads: PHamily Hair Care’s formula is definitely going to be right up your alley!
Don’t know where to start? Don’t fret! PHamily Hair Care has prepared an insightful and amazing range of tutorials and instructional content, which aim to guide people in the process of using the product step-by-step. It couldn’t be easier as it is, and the company also provides a wealth of resources and access to a community of haircare experts and enthusiasts.
The company recently launched a brand new website, so check it out and find out more:
