Following the declaration by Mohammed Badie, thou- sands of Brotherhood supporters marched on the state tel- evision building, even after three Islamist protesters were shot dead at a Cairo rally. As military helicopters flew low overhead, Badie appeared on stage to screams of joy from jubilant supporters, following reports he had been detained in the wake of Wednesday’s ouster of the presi- dent. “Millions will remain in the squares until we carry our elected president, Mohamed Morsi, on our shoulders,” Badie told the crowd outside Rabaa Al-Adawiya mosque, before leading chants of “Military coup!” and “Invalid!” In the fiery speech, he vowed to “complete the revolution”, and repeatedly referred to Morsi as the president. “To the great Egyptian army, I say ‘Allahu Akbar’ (God is great) ... I say ... we will sacrifice,” he shouted as a military helicopter hovered low overhead. He urged the army not to fire on its own citizens, and added: “Our bare chests are stronger than bullets.” Badie’s impassioned speech came just three hours after three protesters were killed outside the Republican Guard headquarters after breaking away from the demonstration outside the mosque. The bodies of two people were cov- ered with sheets, said a correspondent, adding another protester was shot in the head and fell, parts of his brain spilling from his skull.

    MONDAY JULY 19, 2021 By Tréa Lavery Swampscott Conservancy ITEM STAFF SWAMPSCOTT — The Swampscott Conservancy is advocating for a ban on balloons in the town, saying that they have a detrimental effect on the airing out its case environment and on animals that may ingest them. In a post on the Conservancy’s website, President Toni Bandrowicz ac- knowledged that balloons are a bright and fun way of celebrating happy against balloons events, but asked residents to consider the negative impacts as well as the positive. “To protect nature in our neighborhood, perhaps it’s time for Swamp- scott to consider such a by-law — or at least a policy that bans balloons at town-sponsored events, on town-owned properties, or for any events requir- ing town approval,” Bandrowicz said. “The town should promote the use of non-disposable, reusable decorations for such events, not balloons and other single-use plastic decorations.” A handful of communities in Massachusetts have already enacted similar rules, including Chatham, Everett, Nantucket and Provincetown. In 2019, State Representative Sarah Peake of Provincetown introduced a bill that would ban “the sale, distribution and release of any type of balloon, includ- ing, but not limited to, plastic, latex or mylar, lled with any type of lighter BALLOONS, A3 Lynn, Revere and MBTA mapping out transit plan By Allysha Dunnigan ITEM STAFF The Massachusetts Bay Transporta- tion Authority (MBTA) announced its collaboration with municipal partners, including Revere and Lynn, for a series of bus priority projects that will construct up to 4.8 miles of bus lanes — and other pro-transit infrastructure upgrades — to improve bus speed and reliability as the region re-opens from COVID-19-related regulations.

At the age of fifteen, Laetitia was discovered while vacationing with her family on a beach in Corsica, "the island of beauty", in France. A modeling agent from the Madison Models' Agency approached her, and handed her father a business card with an invitation to bring his daughter to Paris for some test shoots. Once her father finally agreed to the agency taking some test photographs, her unmistakable potential was recognized by the founder of Madison Models - despite the fact that the shoot occurred without the aid of makeup and a designer wardroom which many models rely on to promote themselves. Within weeks of her first shoots, she was walking the runway for Jean-Paul Gaultier. However, her career did not begin to take off until the director of the French edition of Elle saw and was impressed with Laetitia's looks. Modeling contracts and appearances in magazines quickly ensued. Paul Marciano, founder and art director of Guess? who is incidentally accredited for the success of Claudia Schiffer - was taken by Casta's near perfection. Her work in the Guess ad (she became their new front Girl) was her debut advertising campaign.
