Get ready for 2 seasons of Welcome to Wrexham, a docuseries tracking the dreams and people of Wrexham, a working-class town in North Wales, UK, as two Hollywood stars take ownership of the town’s historic yet struggling football club.

The worry? Rob and Ryan have no experience in football or working with each other. That said, they are serious about their investment in Wrexham, improving the club and doing right by the townspeople.
Founded in 1864, the “Red Dragons” are one of the oldest football teams in the world and currently compete in the National League, the fifth tier of the English football league system.
From Hollywood to Wales, the pitch to the locker room, the front office to the pub, Welcome to Wrexham will track Rob and Ryan’s crash course in football club ownership and the inextricably connected fates of a team and a town counting on two actors to bring some serious hope and change to a community that could use it.

Max Mara is synonymous with camel hair. The legendary coats have been crafted from this sustainable fiber that is collected from the camel as it naturally sheds. The excess camelhair fabric of the Max Mara coats is upcycled to create a new coat with a sustainable padding, the Cameluxe, an ultra-fine material used as insulation for a new generation of The Cube — the integrated system of outerwear and accessories that has been around the “block” a few times.
Arizona Muse is the star of the new Max Mara The Cube with Cameluxe padding Spring Summer 2022 campaign. Model, activist and founder of DIRT, a foundation for the regeneration of earth, she is passionately committed to raising awareness about fashion sustainability and its environmental impact. The campaign photographer was Robbie Lawrence and the video was directed by Tracy Doyle.
The Max Mara The Cube with Cameluxe is an adaptable, high performance collection. Key pieces for Spring Summer 2022 include fully reversible, lightweight, zipped jackets; oversized parkas and boxy sweatshirts.
Max Mara The Cube, focused on the down jacket, is an integrated system of outerwear and accessories born in 2008. The Max Mara The Cube’s design is so innovative that it has been “boxed” into the display cases at the Berlin State Museums and New York’s FIT, as a “cult object” in the “Fashion and Technology” exhibitions. In a bid to celebrate the research and innovation behind the Max Mara The Cube’s design, we asked three photographers to provide us with their own visual interpretation of the project and provided them with just one prompt: life, cubed.
The collection comes in a spectrum of colours that range from dazzling brights: sunny yellows, and oranges, bougainvillea, sky blue and green — to the classics: camel, navy and white The collection is completed by a line of clutch bags in the same colours, also with Cameluxe padding.
Powered by Imbotex Lab. CAMELUXE is a new frontier for mindful fashion: the excess camelhair fabrics are upcycled from our legendary coats and not only in order to create a warm insulating pad.
Cameluxe challenges conventional notions of the environmental impact of fashion production by repurposing luxury materials that would have otherwise been unused, decreasing energy consumption, the output of waste, water usage, and CO2 emissions.

Supporting the official HR-V Launch in April 2021. The Honda HR-V is a subcompact crossover SUV B-segment manufactured and marketed by Honda over three generations. The first generation HR-V was based on the Honda Logo. It was marketed from 1999 to 2006 in Europe, Japan and select Asia-Pacific markets — and featured three doors 1999–2003 or five doors 1999–2006. The two configurations were internally designated GH2 and GH4 respectively.
After a hiatus between 2006 and 2013, Honda reintroduced the nameplate for the second generation HR-V, based on the third-generation Honda Fit. Production began in late 2013 for the Japanese domestic market as the Honda Vezel and in 2015 in North America, Australia, Brazil and select Asian markets as the HR-V. It is sold as the Vezel in Japan and China.
According to Honda, the "HR-V" stands for "Hi-rider Revolutionary Vehicle".

Gianni Morandi L'Allegria was written for the singer by his friend Lorenzo "Jovanotti" Cherubini.
The new single by Gianni Morandi was released on June 11th for Epic / Sony, a song that comes after a difficult moment for the singer involved in an accident that caused him serious burns causing concern not only his fans, but a large part of Italy.
To leave behind this bad episode, but also the period that involved all of Italy, and beyond, the national Gianni decided to launch a song for the summer of 2021the song from 10 to 12 June will be the theme song for all RTL 102.5 radio broadcasts.
The piece is carefree and for this reason it represents both the author and the performer very well. A song that throws a melancholy glance at the past but always reminding us that the present is the real challenge, a continuous challenge to be faced with joy, which is one of the most beautiful sensations you can experience.

Amazing Journey: The Story of The Who is a 2007 documentary by Murray Lerner and Paul Crowder about English rock and roll band The Who. The film features new interviews with band members Roger Daltrey, John Entwistle, Kenney Jones, and Pete Townshend, as well as Sting, The Edge(U2), Noel Gallagher, Eddie Vedder, Steve Jones and others, as well as rare photos of the four members of the band, and archival live footage of performances dating back to 1964. A soundtrack accompanying the film also serves as a greatest-hits compilation for the band.
The two-DVD set includes footage not in earlier documentaries, including film from the 1970 Leeds University appearance, never-seen-before footage of a show in Copenhagen that shows Daltrey leaving the stage because the performance of the other members of The Who broke down into chaotic noise due to amphetamines – which resulted in a fight between Daltrey and Moon backstage and Daltrey being kicked out of the band temporarily – and a 1964 performance at the Railway Hotel when they were The High Numbers.
The film was nominated for a 2009 Grammy Award. An exclusive three disc set was available only at Best Buy retailers with a third disc featuring the majority of their performance on 8 December 1979 at Chicago's International Amphitheatre.

...All This Time is a live album and concert film by Sting, recorded and filmed on 11 September 2001. It was recorded at Sting's Villa Il Palagio in Italy in front of a select audience drawn from his fan club and features live versions of Sting's songs from his Police and solo song catalogue. The album and video get their name from the song of the same name from his album The Soul Cages.
Sting wanted to put together a concert in his home, so he enlisted a group of musicians to practice and perform with him. The events leading up to the night of the performance were filmed, and during these events on the day of the performance, the September 11 attacks perpetrated against the United States occurred, and the assembled group of musicians was made aware of this.
The group performed the concert as originally intended, although Sting indicates on the DVD documentary the tone of the evening was quite different from how it was originally intended. Additionally, the "Desert Rose" performance featuring vocalist Cheb Mami was canceled due to the same circumstances.
As a result of the tragic events, the concert was dedicated to those who lost their lives that day. Inside the CD booklet, upon the first page, it is stated, "This album was recorded on September 11, 2001, and is respectfully dedicated to all those who lost their lives on that day." Thereafter, the lyrics for the included song "Fragile" are also transcribed; of the full song list comprising the CD, only the lyrics for this one song are within the booklet.
The concert documentary was directed by Jim Gable and the documentary portion was edited by Scott C. Wilson and Jeffrey Doe.

Sabine Roemer is an award-winning jewellery designer, goldsmith and silversmith who, in addition to her own brands, has worked with the world’s top jewellery, fashion and couture houses.
The German-born fell in love with her vocation at the age of fifteen. Now London-based, Sabine was among the youngest female masters to graduate from Germany’s prestigious Pforzheim Goldsmith and Watchmaking School honing her skills from designing and metalworking to stone cutting and setting. She then moved to London, where she cut her teeth at the top Bond Street Jewellers and Place Vendôme maisons, who quickly tapped into her talent and classical training.
Philanthropy is also close to Sabine’s heart. She has worked with the world’s major philanthropic foundations, including the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust QEST, where Sabine created a white gold and silver postage stamp, set with sapphires, to celebrate the Queen’s Jubilee.
For the Queen of Sweden’s Mentor programme, Sabine repurposed a royal brooch into a dazzling orchid and for MTV she created a white rose bracelet which was worn by Kelly Rowland. Many more pieces were auctioned off to raise much needed funds. In 2010, following a personal disaster after fatal floods and landslides ravaged Ladakh and Pakistan, Sabine launched her own charity, From You With Love, that supports children’s education in the local area.
Today, Sabine’s work extends further into the worlds of fashion, film and Art. In 2010 Morgan Freeman wore her bespoke gold and diamond set bracelet to the Academy Awards when he was nominated for his Invictus role. More recently, she hand sculpted a gold corset in collaboration with the couturier Ralph & Russo, which was worn by Angelina Jolie at the premiere of the Disney film Maleficent.

Amaro del Ciclista is a liqueur with a strong, distinctive personality, born from an old tradition within the Casoni family, whereby a small glass of bitter was offered as an invigorating drink after a long ride.
It all stems from the story of a great-grandfather who told his great-grandson about when, with nothing more than his bicycle, he would climb from the plain to the hill of Modena to go and see a beautiful girl who later became his wife. “After a 120-kilometre bike ride, almost all uphill, my reward was certainly the expression on Maria's face, but also that excellent amaro that her father offered me together with an egg and sugar!" The Casoni family has preserved that particular amaro recipe and now offers it with pride to those people who tenaciously pursue their goals without fear of fatigue: a full rounded amaro with an unmistakable taste of herbs.
A full-bodied and rounded bitter thanks to the skilful blend of 15 herbs and a complex distillation process, capable of giving unique satisfaction and creating moments of authentic and unforgettable conviviality.
For its preparation, herbs and other plant parts are ground and steeped in a hydroalcoholic infusion for about 30 days. During this period, the infusion is constantly checked, pumped over to ensure the maximum extraction of aromatic components and then put in a special decanting tank where the mixture is left to stand for at least another 30 days. After this period, the liquid is filtered and left to stand for a further 30 days to age and balance the aromatic components extracted from the plants. All raw materials, the main components of the amaro, are dosed and mixed in special stainless steel mixers and then rigorously controlled in terms of their organoleptics. After this phase, the liqueur is left to stand for another 30 days and then filtered further. After the first filtration, the amaro is left to stand for another 30 days to complete refining then it is re-filtered and undergoes polishing. Thus the last check of taste and quality takes place, which is followed by bottling of a product that has the power to create moments of authentic and unforgettable conviviality. The story that the concept of the Amaro del Ciclista was born out of is certainly not original, but it is undoubtedly authentic: the story of a great-grandfather who told his great-grandson about when, with nothing more than his bicycle, he would climb from the plain to the hill of Modena to go and see a beautiful girl who later became his wife. “After a 120-kilometre bike ride, almost all uphill, my reward was certainly the expression on Maria's face, but also that excellent amaro that her father offered me together with an egg and sugar!" The Casoni family has preserved that particular amaro recipe and now offers it with pride to those people who tenaciously pursue their goals without fear of fatigue: a full rounded amaro with an unmistakable taste of herbs.
Casoni, one of Italy's oldest distilleries and liqueur factories established 1814, has handed down its know-how from generation to generation, maintaining an innate passion for the production of liqueurs and spirits blended with a love for our region. Actually, Casoni has always been in Finale Emilia, Modena, the town that has witnessed this business grow in over 200 years of its history.
All Casoni distilled spirits and liqueurs are born from a passion for Italian tradition and from its constant focus on the latest consumer trends and market innovations. Casoni is a cocktail of experience and innovation, offering a full range of artisan liqueurs capable to satisfy the tastes of the most diverse and demanding customers. Tradition and deep expertise are the key factors in the success of Casoni liqueurs, factors that have contributed to the life of its countless successful liqueurs throughout its history.

The company Orogel was founded as a cooperative in 1967 by a group of eleven fruit and vegetable producers from the Cesena area who founded the Cooperative Agricultural Producers of Fruit and Vegetables COPA; later other companies in the Romagna area joined together, forming the Fruttadoro Consortium in 1969.
In 1974 the first frozen products were placed on the market and in 1976 the Cesena plant started its own freezing business. The gradual and continuous increase in production made it necessary, in 1978, to set up a company for the production, sale and distribution of frozen products which led to the birth of the Orogel brand.

The Serafico Institute of Assisi celebrates its 150th anniversary with the documentary film "In life there is life" while waiting for the Pope's audience.
The Serafico Institute of Assisi is 150 years old, an important milestone that marks the stages of a history that begins on 17 September 1871, when St. Ludovico da Casoria decided to found a work in Assisi dedicated to St. Francis, which would take care of blind and deaf children.
Today the Serafico Institute of Assisi is a model of Italian and international excellence in rehabilitation, research and medical and scientific innovation for children and young adults with physical, mental and sensory disabilities.
The theme of the celebrations of the 150th anniversary of the Institute is the accessibility of care for people with disabilities, a choice dictated by the commitment of the Serafico Institute in promoting a model of care that starts from the knowledge of the person in its entirety and its specific needs, the only approach that can read the real needs of people with disabilities and provide them with more appropriate responses in order to promote a concrete change in the name of equality and innovation.
On 17 September, the day of the foundation of the Serafico Institute of Assisi, at 9 p.m. at the Lyrick Theatre in Assisi took place the celebratory event with the screening of the docufilm "Nella vita c'è la vita" / In life there is life by the director Maria Amata Calò.
The special guest of the evening was Giovanni Caccamo, the singer-songwriter discovered by Franco Battiato and winner of the "Nuove proposte" category at the 65th edition of the Sanremo Festival. On 18 September, at 9 pm, in the square in front of the Lower Basilica of St Francis in Assisi, there was a concert in honour of the Serafico by the State Police band, with the participation of another special guest, the tenor Francesco Grollo. On 3 and 4 December, the first Assisi-Cambridge international conference on neurodevelopmental disorders, disabilities and neuroscience was held.
Finally, on 13 December, Pope Francis held a special audience at the Vatican for the Serafico of Assisi. A meeting that confirmed the strong link between the Holy Father and the Serafico Institute, born since the beginning of his pontificate, when on October 4, 2013 he began his pilgrimage to Assisi with a visit to the Institute.

Vasco Rossi, also known simply as Vasco or with the nickname Blasco Zocca, February 7, 1952, is an Italian singer-songwriter.
Defining himself as a "provocateur",he is considered one of the greatest exponents of Italian rock music. Since the beginning of his career in 1977, he has released 34 albums, including 18 in studio, 11 live and 5 official collections, as well as two EPs and an audiovisual work; altogether he wrote 191 songs, as well as having written numerous lyrics and music for other performers. He has sold almost 40 million records and has been one of the most successful Italian artists since the early 1980s.
The video of the song, created by Swan, was published the day before its release by Vasco himself on his official Facebook page. This video sees Vasco, his guitarist Maurizio Solieri, his bassist Claudio Golinelli and Gianluca Schiavon on drums playing inside a train.
At the end of the video there is the painting The origin of the world, which signifies a "revolution" in the artistic field just as the train was in the industrial one.
On September 5, the video receives the "Special Italy Award" delivered to director Swan at the Future Film Festival — For the successful collage of various techniques of the past integrated with modern ones: forced perspective, reconstructed sets, scale models on real landscapes and scale models on synthetic landscapes integrate with green screen and tracking, 2D animation and compositing. A technology subservient to meaning, which gives the video a great creative and poetic value.

Notte Illuminata is an album released in 2011 by Italian tenor, Andrea Bocelli. A collection of arias in German, French, Italian and English, the album is Bocelli's first to be released only digitally.
Andrea Bocelli is an Italian operatic tenor and multi-instrumentalist. He was diagnosed with congenital glaucoma at 5 months old, and became completely blind at age 12, following a soccer accident. After performing evenings in piano bars and competing in local singing contests, Bocelli signed his first recording contract with the Sugar Music label. He rose to fame in 1994, winning the preliminary round of the 44th Sanremo Music Festival performing "Miserere", with the highest marks ever recorded in the newcomers section.
Since 1982, Bocelli has recorded 15 solo studio albums of both pop and classical music, three greatest hits albums, and nine complete operas, selling over 75 million records worldwide. He has had success as a crossover performer, bringing classical music to the top of international pop charts.
In 1998, Bocelli was named one of People magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People. He duetted with Celine Dion on the song "The Prayer" for the animated film Quest for Camelot, which won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song. In 1999, he was nominated for Best New Artist at the Grammy Awards. He captured a listing in the Guinness Book of World Records with the release of his classical album Sacred Arias, as he simultaneously held the top three positions on the US Classical Albums charts.
Bocelli was made a Grand Officer of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic in 2006 and was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on 2 March 2010 for his contribution to Live Theatre. Singer Celine Dion has said that "if God would have a singing voice, he must sound a lot like Andrea Bocelli”, and record producer David Foster has often described Bocelli's voice as the most beautiful in the world.

...All This Time is a live album and concert film by Sting, recorded and filmed on 11 September 2001. It was recorded at Sting's Villa Il Palagio in Italy in front of a select audience drawn from his fan club and features live versions of Sting's songs from his Police and solo song catalogue. The album and video get their name from the song of the same name from his album The Soul Cages.
Sting wanted to put together a concert in his home, so he enlisted a group of musicians to practice and perform with him. The events leading up to the night of the performance were filmed, and during these events on the day of the performance, the September 11 attacks perpetrated against the United States occurred, and the assembled group of musicians was made aware of this.
The group performed the concert as originally intended, although Sting indicates on the DVD documentary the tone of the evening was quite different from how it was originally intended. Additionally, the "Desert Rose" performance featuring vocalist Cheb Mami was canceled due to the same circumstances.
As a result of the tragic events, the concert was dedicated to those who lost their lives that day. Inside the CD booklet, upon the first page, it is stated, "This album was recorded on September 11, 2001, and is respectfully dedicated to all those who lost their lives on that day." Thereafter, the lyrics for the included song "Fragile" are also transcribed; of the full song list comprising the CD, only the lyrics for this one song are within the booklet.
The concert documentary was directed by Jim Gable and the documentary portion was edited by Scott C. Wilson and Jeffrey Doe.
