Michelle Jewsbury is an international philanthropic, speaker, author, and breakthrough coach. May 2014, she took her first humanitarian trip to Guatemala where she helped an orphanage on the Rio Dulce. Her next mission trip took her to Kenya, Africa withKizimani, a non profit that focuses on bringing hope and sustainable change to impoverished communities. In 2015, she embarked in a career as Vice President for Young Vision Africa, a non-profit organization that encourages young leaders in Sierra Leone to make lasting changes in their country. Also in 2015, Michelle joined a team of people in Hyderabad, India where she worked with Back2Back at one of their orphanages. Michelle left her position with Young Vision Africa in August 2016 to focus her efforts on ending domestic violence. Her desire to help victims of domestic abuse came from personal experience in such a relationship. Michelle was with her assailant for three years where she endured physical, sexual, emotional and financial abuse. Michelle wrote, produced and performed a critically acclaimed play about her experience entitled But I Love Him. The play debuted at the largest Solo Festival on the West Coast, The White Fire SoloFest, with a nearly sold out performance in February 2016. The show, also staged in the 2016 Hollywood Fringe Festival, received multiple reviews and commendations. She has since completed and published her personal memoir with the same title as her play. But I Love Him is a painful yet inspirational true story of a strong, independent woman caught in the horrifying cycle of domestic violence and how she got out. In this book, she shares the details of her struggle with genuine honesty, taking the reader on a twisted journey of love, pain and unyielding brutality that eventually leads…to peace. Mixing statistics, research and resource with her own account (and even some humor), Michelle shows just how far someone in her situation can sink, why it happens and how they can always pick themselves back up. Those who hear her story walk away with a newfound understanding about the horrors of domestic violence, how to escape and how to build a new, healthier life.

Bulls small forward DeMar DeRozan was a four-time all-star when he was with the Toronto Raptors. But when he came to Chicago this season after a lackluster few years in San Antonio, many fans and analysts were skeptical the 13-year veteran could still bring it. So far, the haters have been proven wrong. DeRozan has played a key role in bringing the Bulls back to life, especially as a leader for an otherwise young team. K.C. Johnson has been following the Bulls for more than three decades, and he explains how DeRozan's career has made him hungry for success in Chicago. Guest:  K.C. Johnson — Bulls Insider, NBC Sports Chicago A little bit of news, y'all: UIC has a new map showing what's causing pollution by schools.

Uno scarafaggio delinquente che non riesce a conquistare la sua amata nonostante una fortuna in sterco accumulata illegalmente, un maiale ballerino che diventa famoso, si perde negli agi e nel lusso materiale e non riesce a essere porco come la madre sognava per lui, un cane ex agente delle forze speciali dedito all'ascetismo buddista che non riesce ad uscire dal giro della droga, uno squalo che vorrebbe la pace degli oceani ma per sopravvivere deve mangiare i suoi amici. Questi animali sono Viskovitz: nelle sue metamorfosi ritroviamo le debolezze, le passioni e i desideri della natura umana. Un assaggio del nuovo spettacolo teatrale – tratto dal libro di grandissimo successo di Alessandro Boffa: Sei una bestia Viskovitz – che sarà pronto per l'autunno.

Non passa giorno che non vengano annunciate cure miracolistiche a base di cellule staminali per malattie come Alzheimer, sclerosi multipla, Parkinson, solo per citarne alcune. Purtroppo, però, non si traducono quasi mai in cure per i malati. E' la nostra ancora scarsa conoscenza della complessità strutturale e funzionale del cervello, con più di 200 miliardi di cellule, che ci limita. Per questo non si può genericamente parlare di staminali per tutto e per tutti: in alcuni casi si stanno già sperimentando, in altri le evidenze di un potere curativo delle cellule bambine sono solo limitate e/o aneddotiche, ed in altri casi ancora, paradossalmente quelli più gridati, i risultati fino ad ora ottenuti sono addirittura contraddittori.

In this candid conversation, Annalise opens up about the complicated bond she formed with her biological father, how she set boundaries with her step-mother and how she developed a loving relationship with her step-father, Bill. This episode highlights the importance of talking about emotions and how creativity can help us form intimate connections with the people around us. Those connections help us realize that everyone is dealing with something - and we just never know without leaning in to connect.Annalise Raziq on The Moth.About the GuestAnnalise Raziq is a versatile performer; she has worked with renowned playwright Tony Kushner and also played the back end of a dragon.

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek talks to the organizers of one of the country's oldest live story-telling festivals, the Fillet of Solo Fest. The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Catey Sullivan (who is filling in for Jonathan Abarbanel), stop by to review the touring production of MEAN GIRLS the Musical. Later in the program, Gary catches up with the author of a new book that profiles one of the country's most unique professional sports franchises.

Our guest is Mark Falgout, owner of Blue Moon Saloon, one of America's premier venues for roots music from around the world.  He also owns Warehouse 535, a popular venue for special events and live performances. Mark and his wife, Nicole, were instrumental in creating the South Louisiana Songwriters Festival and Workshop, known as SOLO, which was successfully launched in 2018 in partnership with the Buddy Holly Educational Foundation. The second annual SOLO Festival will take place May 21 through May 26, 2019, and once again, music insiders from around the world will travel to Lafayette to participate and share their expertise with locals who want to break into the business. SOLO provides aspiring songwriters the opportunity to collaborate in an intense four-day workshop with seasoned music professionals. Participants are placed in groups of three and work all day creating songs and lyrics and given the opportunity to network with successful industry insiders. On Friday, May 24, workshop organizers will select the top 10 to 15 compositions and notify the composers that they will debut their original creations at the Friday night performance at First United Methodist Church. On Memorial Day Weekend, participating SOLO artists and well-known musical acts will perform Saturday and Sunday on six stages at Blue Moon Saloon and Warehouse 535.  You can view the entire schedule here and purchase tickets online. A pass for the entire five-day event, which gives you access to weekday and weekend events as well as the exclusive Friday night World Premiere of songs at First United Methodist Church, may be purchased for $250 and if you purchase with the Rader Solutions Access Code, you can save $50.00. Visit  https://www.radersolutions.com/solofest/ for this Access Code. This year, SOLO has added a two-day conference on May 24 and 25 which include record label executives, publicists, managers, engineers/producers, entertainment lawyers, and others who will present nine sessions and share their insider knowledge on how artists can make it in the music business. Speakers will cover topics such as “How to Promote Yourself in the New Industry Model,” “Getting in Sync: How Artists and Music Supervisors Work Together to Get Music in TV, Films, Video Games and Commercials,” and “Songwriting: How Songwriters Pitch Their Songs.”  The cost of attending the conference is $99.00, with a discount for students, and interested parties may register here. Another new component is working with local elementary, middle school and high school music students in “SOLO Schools. Two SOLO alumni and instructors have been brought in to teach the songwriting process. Mark shared that the young students have displayed an incredible ability to craft songs. Early exposure to the mechanics of a song’s structure can provide a meaningful head start on a career in the music industry. School of Rock will be assisting in the presentation of the artists who will be selected to perform at the Thursday night SOLO School Performance. The event is presented with support from the Buddy Holly Educational Foundation, the CREATE initiative, Lafayette Convention and Visitors Commission, BMG and many public and private sponsors, including Rader Solutions. Volunteers are needed to help with transportation, ushering, merchandise sales, and even making coffee! All are welcome and can sign up here.
