About US:
Born in England, Natalie Williams was soon to move to Switzerland, where she grew up. From an early age her home was filled with a wide range of music.
She started her career as a singer at the age of twelve in a local small band. A few years later she joined a gospel choir for a while, which strengthened her decision to continue singing. During her teenage years she experimented with all kinds of music. Together with friends, they spent countless hours practicing hip-hop chanting and scratching. Another part of her musical development was the excursion into the world of punk and rock music, where, together with a number of like-minded people, she spent some time in a bomb shelter trying out punk and rock.
After a short musical interruption as a young adult, she met a DJ & acquaintance, who broke the proposal to record jingles for him. She liked this idea, so she could deepen her knowledge of voice & microphone. This led to a series of lyrics and short vocals which he could use in the clubs for his sets in the world of house and RnB. While she concentrated on her professional career, her hobby, music, was put on hold for about 3 years. But the joy for the music remained and so it happened, during her stay abroad in Dublin, that she was accepted as lead singer of a 70s funk band.
During this time she started experimenting with electronic music software and developed her first own composition in 2007.
Meanwhile Natalie Williams Visions is a musician with many years of experience in the areas of music production, mixing, mastering of electronic music and also as a DJ on the road.
Just like the ethnic mix of pan-Asian, middle-Eastern and Indonesian origins that makes her appeal unique, the new release from talented AMEL D brings back to the spotlight the vibrant sounds of the purest form of rock, embellishing them with the scratchy vocal touch that is unique, Rare, to her and makes her shine.
After surpassing over 5 million streams on Youtube, and with more than 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify, AMEL D seems to be a running train of unstoppable success. Moved by the strength and power of her vocal scratch, she continues to churn out enthralling numbers that reap listening and viewing, with music videos that have gone viral.
The energy and the driving strength that this resourceful artist is showing in carrying out her independent productions can only be defined as a true force of nature. In the wake of the impetus of this moment, that seems to be more than prolific for AMEL D, here comes her newest work, ‘Dear Blue (The Perfect Shadow)’, a song taken from her second album ‘Cross To Hell’.
Here, while remaining faithful to her alternative style, AMEL D brings us a number that aims to take the rawest and most genuine rock to the center of attention, infusing it in a compelling cinematic atmosphere and making it resonate on the strings of her vocal timbre, for which she is already known and loved by millions of listeners.
If with the previous single ‘Pride of Sacrifice’ she had shown that she had fully reached a certain artistic maturity, now with ‘Dear Blue (The Perfect Shadow)’ she is starting to consolidate her way to success piece by piece, lining it with milestones that her fans, old and new, will have no chance but adore, thanks to the vibrant passion with which they are imbued.
‘Dear Blue (The Perfect Shadow)’ is already available on AMEL D website www.ameldmusic.com, and on her Youtube channel as an official music visual, where it has already reached tens of thousands of views in just a few days. Soon the track will also be available on all the major digital platforms.
A QUICK PIVOT HELPED ORCASONG FARM ON ORCAS ISLAND SURVIVE AND GIVE BACK
Eastsound, Washington – May 15, 2020 – OrcaSong is not your typical small farm. Based on Orcas Island in the upper part of the Puget Sound, this women-led team not only grows 130+ acres of food and botanical fields of hemp and lavender, but also has a mission to support their community through plant-based wellness products, creating jobs and giving back. Inclusion is the biggest part of their vocabulary. They are LGBTQ+ owned, managed and allied, and work to create a safe space where everyone can be who they are. “We lead our team with care and respect for ourselves and each other. OrcaSong is an environment that nurtures innovative ideas on a stunning landscape through dedication and passion. We want people to know that all are welcome here at the farm, but we will also speak up in order to maintain an environment of respect,” says Farm Manager, Ariana Terrence. This approach seems to have paid off well, especially in a crisis.
When the pandemic first hit, much of their business model at the time revolved around tourism and non-essential wellness products. With tourists staying at home, the OrcaSong team had to quickly pivot their focus, and maximize what they had available. As wholesalers of lavender oil and hydrosol to perfume and soap manufacturers, they had plenty of their organic, farm-grown lavender distillates. With the sudden lack of hand sanitizer in the marketplace, they studied, tested, mixed and learned how to make sanitizer that people would not only need but also want. In doing so, OrcaSong could create something that would not only help keep people safe but would also help sustain the farm and create more jobs within their community. And just as this is no ordinary farm, the product they made is no ordinary Hand Sanitizer. With 66% alcohol and organic, farm-grown ingredients — and aloe and vitamin E to moisturize — this Sanitizer softens skin while it kills germs. This combination of high quality ingredients came at a higher price than what people were used to seeing at stores before the pandemic.
When it was first introduced, the OrcaSong Lavender Hand Sanitizer encountered some scrutiny, primarily based on price. “There were a good number of people comparing apples to oranges,” says Sara Donnelly, the Marketing Director at OrcaSong. “With the underlying panic, we had a few people telling us we were price gouging. But our product is different–it has premium ingredients that we grow on our organic farm, and it actually benefits your skin. While we wanted to make our products as accessible as possible, we also needed to price our products in a way that covered our costs to run the farm, so the farm could survive the pandemic and allow us to continue to give back to the community. The vast majority of our customers understood that the quality of our product justified the price though, and we knew we had done the right thing when reviews started coming in and the re-orders began. In addition, we partnered with PCC stores in Seattle to make our sanitizer available to shoppers in that area.”
As the pandemic continued to worsen, OrcaSong ran into struggles producing their sanitizer product. Each week presented its own challenges. One week it was a 179% increase in the price of isopropyl alcohol, a key ingredient in the Lavender Hand Sanitizer– if they could find it at all, given demand had skyrocketed with new sanitizer producers entering the market. Next week’s challenge was global packaging shortages and a scramble to find any bottles available so they could keep supplying the sanitizer to their customers and community.
At another point, Ariana had to wring out aloe vera leaves, collected from around the island, by (gloved) hand. “We were proud of how we all came together to make it happen, especially in a time when we were all dealing with our own emotions and fears,” says Ariana. “We added more women to our team in a time when most people were getting laid off. This was great, but it also required a new challenge to create a structure that was supportive to everyone’s understandable emotional needs. Staying busy on the farm and being around our team meant a lot to me.”
The success of the Hand Sanitizer prompted the team to add a new plant-based Moisturizing Hand Soap, also with high quality ingredients and organic lavender extracts from the farm. The new Hand Soap will allow the team to expand opportunities for employment at the farm, as well as food production for their local community. “We love the products we are making right now,” says Ariana. “Creating a Moisturizing Hand Soap to go along with our Hand Sanitizer was a no-brainer. Soon we will introduce a Cedar Hand Sanitizer for men (and women), and shortly after that, a Doug Fir Sanitizer. This way people will have all they need to keep their hands clean and moisturized.”
The movement to localize the food chain is a big part of their motivation. As a not-for-profit farm, the team understands that keeping their business going will benefit the farm and the community around them. Through it all, the team says they are a farm first. “You could definitely say we are a unique farm. Our team is women-led and we are vocal about our values. We are also deeply allied with the LGBTQ+ community,” says Agricultural Manager, Sally Spicer. “My wife and I took on the management of this farm because we were given the chance to be who we are and do what we love.” Their expansion of food production is now part of the San Juan Island Food Hub, an effort to localize community farms and makers.
As the future is still uncertain for so many, and as recession hits harder every day, the OrcaSong team works to keep their mission alive. For now, they are taking it one day at a time, happy with their story of survival thus far.

Jeanine Añez, President of Bolivia, has received the first 170 RESPIRA ventilators purchased by the Bolivian government so that they can be used urgently in the coming days
Government Minister Arturo Murillo reported last Sunday, May 10th, the purchase and that a plane from the Bolivian state airline (BoA) would travel to Barcelona to transport approximately 200 GPAINNOVA ventilators.
GPAINNOVA’s RESPIRA device is expanding in different countries of the world to respond to the Covid-19 health emergency.
Today, President Jeanine Áñez has received the first 170 RESPIRA that Bolivian national government acquired to face the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic and has already delivered 30 of them to the department of Santa Cruz and the rest are will deliver according to the needs of each municipality.
The president explained that the arrival of these respirators was delayed due to the international demand that exists for this equipment throughout the world due to the pandemic.
Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID) reported that it financed the purchase and transport from Barcelona of 170 ventilators to serve critically ill patients affected by Covid-19.
The Bolivian Ministry of Health, Arturo Murillo reported last Sunday that a Bolivian state airline (BoA) plane would travel in the next few hours and would travel to Europe to transport approximately 200 respirators, because in the current global pandemic event due to coronavirus, respirators are the most important and most necessary equipment for Bolivian hospitals to care for patients with Covid-19 and to save their lives.
Bolivia, with a population of 11,35 million inhabitants, has exceeded 3,000 cases of infections and a total of 142 deaths due to Covid-19
Bolivian Consulate General in Barcelona, in the hands of his Consul General, the Hon. Mr. David Alberto Pareja Lozada, has played a fundamental role in the entire process of RESPIRA purchase. On the other hand, the export company IMEConsulting in Bilbao, Vizcaya, with extensive experience in international trade, has participated as an exporter and distributor in the Bolivian operation.
Several countries around the world are completing the procedures to acquire GPAINNOVA’s RESPIRA as an emergency invasive ventilator specially designed to treat patients with serious conditions caused by COVID-19 that require invasive ventilation.
The Spanish multinational company GPAINNOVA is leading the RESPIRA project to respond to the global health emergency with the creation of this medical device, which is in great demand and is essential to save the lives of those most seriously affected by the virus Covid-19.
RESPIRA has been recently developed and patented. It has been authorized by Autoridades Sanitarias Españolas (AEMPS) to be used during the COVID-19 emergency situation and is in the process of CE and FDA certification. Any country in the world can join the medical trial and validate RESPIRA according to local regulations before final certification is granted.
The device covers the shortage of emergency ventilators and ICUs, as it can carry out two critical phases of pneumonia due to COVID-19. RESPIRA ventilator carries out three modes of invasive ventilation, both for patients under clinical sedation and for those recovering after sedation.
The use of a control station allows managing up to 16 devices simultaneously through its own WI-FI network.
RESPIRA is supported by technologists and partners from globally recognized companies such as SIEMENS and SMC and uses only certified and high-quality components.
Videos and images of delivery of devices to the Bolivian Ministry of Health, validation tests and production chain of prototypes used in the clinical trial with patients affected by Covid-19.

#AWorldofHearts
Just take a walk or drive down any street in the United States right now and you see them everywhere – bright and colorful hearts in windows and on doors.
These hearts send messages of love and support to our healthcare heroes and frontline workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. We see these hearts everywhere, but did you ever stop and think about how this movement started?
We answer that question in our first episode of SLGN. Plus, we’ll speak with the founder of this movement in our next SLGN episode, scheduled to be released on May 21.
Just Engaged!
This past March, Carly Boyd, 21, and her boyfriend Trevor Sellers, 25, took a trip to North Myrtle Beach over St. Patrick’s Day weekend. It’s a spot that they’ve been to before. Two years ago, Sellers asked Boyd to be his girlfriend at North Myrtle Beach. Sellers had a different question to ask Boyd on their return trip.
“He walked me out onto the beach and while we were getting on to the beach he was telling me how much he loved me and that’s when it clicked,” said Boyd.
Sellers asked Boyd to marry him and she said YES! The moment was captured by friends.
“I started crying and my friends, all of them were screaming,” Boyd recalled. “It was just a really, really great moment and I was very shocked and surprised.”
The couple is planning a December 2021 wedding.
A ‘Grand’ Surprise at Premier Living & Rehab Center
The news of Boyd’s engagement quickly spread, but there was one special someone that she wanted to tell in-person: her grandfather, Shelton Mahala.
There was just one problem – Premier Living & Rehab Center in North Carolina where Mahala is a resident is on lockdown and visitors are not allowed.
Boyd has a close relationship with her grandfather. Originally from Tennessee, Mahala had been living with Boyd and her family for the past five years.
“I’ve gotten really close with him living with us and it really broke my heart when we had to put him in the nursing facility,” said Boyd, who used to work at Premier Living & Rehab Center as a nursing assistant.
Some of the staff at Premier Living & Rehab Center had seen Carly’s post on Facebook that she got engaged and they asked her if she had told her grandfather yet. She said not yet, because she wanted to tell him face-to-face instead of over the phone.
“I don’t know how I’m going to tell him without seeing him,” said Boyd.
The staff made the suggestion of walking outside to his window and sharing the news.
Boyd made her way outside and the staff pulled up the blinds so Mahala could see who was standing outside his window. Mahala, who has dementia, was a little confused at first as to why Boyd was outside and couldn’t visit him inside his room.
The staff explained to him that Boyd had to stay outside because of the virus.
“He was kind of upset and then that’s when I was like, look, I’m engaged,” recalled Boyd. “And that’s when he perked up.”
Her grandfather then asked when the wedding will be and Boyd told him they are hoping to have the ceremony next December (2021).
“He got a little down and he said, ‘well, I hope I can make it,’” recalled Boyd. “I just put my hand on the window and he put his and I told him how much I loved him and we cried and it was a very powerful, emotional moment.”

The MRG200 social distancing alarm is helping to keep people safe. This revolutionary technology has gained worldwide attention and could become one of the most used health and safety tools within the workplace.
Now the whole world is completely or partially locked up because of the coronavirus, (large) companies are looking for solutions to resume work. The safety of employees and their clients is of paramount importance.
Smart technological solutions for social distancing is now possible.
The Belgian Telematics company MERGROUP developed the MRG200 device with intellectual software. This can guarantee social distancing in places where several people work together.
Security
With this proximity warning solution, developed especially for the corona crisis, employees are able to deal more consciously with their own safety and their colleagues. The MRG200 is a personally configurable device, slightly larger than a credit card and uses GSM, GPRS, GPS and bluetooth for positioning. It alerts an employee via an alarm if he or she gets too close to a colleague. It sends out alerts in case of inactivity or when someone hasn’t been moving for a long time (e.g. in case of an accident with a laboratory worker). In addition, it is possible to communicate with colleagues via the MRG200.
Simple
The MRG200 social distancing alarm is easy to apply in production companies, retail chains, hospitals, laboratories, ministries, supermarkets and other companies where several people are working at the same time.
Mergroup – founded as a family business in 2006 by André De Saeger – has grown into a major player, with branches in Asse, Zeebrugge, Bulgaria and Africa.
This growth is supported by the entire Mergroup family. Still a family business.
