Wearing a Navy uniform, Stephen thanks Trump for joining him on the Brand Mention USS Chucklebucket. Trump says he's a big fan of Winston Churchill. Stephen asks who Drug Reference Churchill's greatest ally was and Trump says, "Nazi Germany." Stephen asks who his greatest Political enemy was and Trump says China. Stephen asks about Trump's Tweet fight with Bette Midler, Celebrity Reference which Trump calls "the greatest battle in history." He also says his staff keeps up with him by Historical Reference doing "massive amounts of drugs." Stephen asks what Trump told his staff to do with the USS John McCain. Trump replies, "Blow it out of the water." Asked what his chances are of getting impeached, Trump says, "They're really good." Stephen asks what he'll do if he wins a second term. Trump says he'll move to Canada. Intro and opening credits. Stephen performs the monologue. It's Day three of President Trump's overseas tour. Brand Mention (5) Throughout the trip, Trump has insisted that instead of protests, the people of London have Political been cheering. That's true now because he left for Ireland. He met with Irish leader "and Celebrity Reference Celtic Popeye" Leo Varadkar in the VIP lounge of Shannon Airport. On the menu was a bottle Historical Reference of Dasani, Gummi Bears, and a short can of Pringles. Trump claimed that he knows most Irish people in America because they're his friends. Stephen asks, "What do you mean you know most of them?" In his Trump voice, Stephen says, "I know the Lucky Charms guy, Liam Neeson, patio furniture." Before he left England, Trump joined in the D-Day remembrance on the 75th anniversary of the Allies landing on the beaches of Normandy and fighting the Nazis. A clip shows Trump saying there were "very fine people on both sides" after the Charlottesville incident. Afterward, dancers emerged. Remember Churchill's famous words after Dunkirk, "My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. It brings them to the beaches." Piers Morgan interviewed Trump and asked about him being on his best behavior. Trump says he has great respect for Queen Elizabeth and tried to be on better behavior. Stephen asks if that's how far we've sunk, that we're treating him like a dog and congratulating him for behaving. Trump recalled walking in with the Queen, who he says can walk as fast as he can. Stephen says, "That is either an odd compliment or a strange confession." Stephen continues the monologue. From what Trump said, it sounds like he and the Queen Brand Visible hit it off. In Trump's voice, Stephen brags about winning the election and having better TV Brand Mention ratings than Arnold Schwarzenegger. In his Trump voice, Stephen says, "You're easy to talk Industry Related (2) at, Liz. I like you." Morgan asked Trump if Prince Charles persuaded him on the merits of Alcohol Reference climate change. Trump says that Charles is into climate change and he thinks that's great. Political Stephen says, "He's 'into it?' It's a global crisis, not kombucha." Trump also likes Charles's Historical Reference passion for future generations. In his Trump voice, Stephen says, "Why would a prince or any Environmental leader care about the people of his country? Is he trying to sound like a climate-branded vodka?" Trump then expressed doubts about climate change, saying we're getting tornado binges. Stephen jokes, "Who hasn't gone out for a few tornadoes and woken up hungover." Morgan asked Trump about avoiding military service. Trump calls Vietnam a terrible war that was really far away. Stephen says, "Yes, that's what's horrible about war. The commute. There's a reason the Army doesn't have ads saying, 'Any hot wars in your area?'" Morgan asked Trump if he'd like to have a 3,000-year bloodline, which Stephen points out everyone has. Trump's answer was even dumber, saying he doesn't know what he'd be doing for the rest of the time. Stephen says, "Here's a hint: Does the words 'dirt nap' mean anything to you?" Stephen continues the monologue. Morgan finished by giving Trump a hat in the style of the Industry Related (2) ones that Winston Churchill used to wear. Trump said he likes it, but Stephen doesn't believe Political it because he's terrible at faking it. Trump tried on the hat. Stephen thinks he looks like the Celebrity Reference secret portrait in Pharrell's attic. Stephen introduces "Keep in Mind: Everyone's Fine." Historical Reference Yesterday a 74-year-old woman tripped and was unable to walk, so she was airlifted to a Physical Illness hospital. Stephen shows the footage, in which the woman spins out of control as she's lifted. "What is happening? Did they tie her to the rotors?" She's fine. The fire captain said she suffered no ill effects from the spin, other than being dizzy. The captain claims to have made eye contact with her while she was spinning, which Stephen doesn't find possible. Break 1 @ 15:00 Stephen asks Jon who is joining in the band tonight. Jon introduces Jaron Lanier, who Brand Visible (2) introduces and plays a strange but very old instrument. He says the harmonica was a copy of Brand Mention (3) this instrument. Stephen says, "Check that (bleep) out." Stephen recalls interviewing Jaron Homosexuality when he was doing "The Colbert Report." Jaron says back then he predicted that the Internet Industry Related and social media would make the world dark. He also has a new book that encourages people Language to delete their social media accounts. It's Pride Month, the time of year when we celebrate Political the LGBTQ community, and corporate America celebrates by selling us rainbow Goodyear Historical Reference tires. A group in Boston has sparked outrage by announcing a Straight Pride Parade this summer. The group behind it is called "Super Fun Happy America." Stephen asks if they've seen a Gay Pride Parade because that is super fun. The parade is scheduled for Aug. 31 and will follow the same path. Well maybe not the same path. "Let's start at the Buffalo Wild Wings. Whoa, this place is great. Let's stay here." Smashmouth Tweeted "Straight Pride Parade? (Bleep) off." Smashmouth truly is the Rosa Parks of '90s alt-rock. Stephen puts the Smashmouth Tweet back up so he can follow them, but is surprised they went with "(bleep) off" and not, "Hey now, you're an ass(bleep)." Break 2 @ 25:00 Stephen welcomes host of "The Late Late Show," James Corden. James says he's wearing a Brand Mention vest for himself more than Stephen. He's aware that he's exposed without a desk in front of Industry Related him. "That plus the Spanx is covering a multitude of what is going on under here." Stephen Political asks about Trump being in England. James says that people back in his home country feel the Celebrity Reference same as people do in America. There are those on the far right who like him, and people who Environmental James likes who are like "What are you doing here?" James wonders what Trump could talk Physical Illness to Queen Elizabeth about for an hour and a half. He also doesn't think Trump knows what Brexit is. "Until yesterday he thought it was the most important meal of the day." He commends Prince Charles for going at Trump about climate change, although Stephen notes that it probably didn't have an effect. Stephen asks why Trump touching the Queen's back is a no-no. James says it's just protocol. He has experience with the royal family and admits the protocols are terrifying. In the church at Harry and Meghan's wedding, there were flowers everywhere, which wreaked havoc on James's allergies. All he was thinking was, "Just don't sneeze." James is hosting the Tonys this Sunday, which is his second time hosting. Stephen jokes that he should just give Lin-Manuel Miranda the award right now. James says it's not an easy gig because it's live, but he thinks people in theater should be celebrated because of how difficult their jobs are. Break 3 @ 35:00 Stephen welcomes the star of "X-Men: First Class," "Mad Max: Fury Road," and HBO's "Big Nudity Little Lies," Zoë Kravitz. A clip of "Big Little Lies" shows Zoë's character talking to another Brand Visible character about killing someone. Stephen mentions having her co-star Adam Scott on the Brand Mention (4) show last night. Adam admitted to being intimidated by Meryl Streep on set. Zoë agrees that Language it's strange and feels "like a douchebag" calling her "Meryl," despite the fact that she's a really Celebrity Reference nice person.

  • Kévin Bideaux, 2018. Millennial Pink: from Iphone to Rihanna. an Analysis of a Color Trend
    MILLENNIAL PINK: FROM IPHONE TO RIHANNA AN ANALYSIS OF A COLOR TREND Kévin Bideaux LEGS (UMR 8238), Université Paris 8 ; Centre Français de la Couleur, Paris ; [email protected] Publié dans : Veronica Marchiafava & Lia Lauzzato (dir.), 2018. Colour and Colorimetry. Multidisciplinary Contributions , XIV B, pp. 293-302. RESUMÉ En août 2016, la journaliste de mode Véronique Hyland a écrit un article dans le New York Magazine dans lequel elle notait qu'une vague de rose envahissait progressivement le monde de la mode et du design. L’émergence du millennial pink consiste en un nombre relativement important d’événements qui se succèdent ou se chevauchent. Mais si le millennial pink est si répandu, c’est parce que les idoles des millennials, très actives sur les réseaux sociaux comme Instagram , jouent également avec cette tendance, et drainent autour d’elles un flot de médias qui relaient leur adhésion au à la tendance du millennial pink. Ainsi, aux côtés de Rihanna qui a lancé une gamme de vêtements roses en collaboration avec Puma, il y a Zain Malik, Drake, Solange ou Zoe Kravitz. Toute apparition d’une star en rose est sujette au « buzz », une communication virale médiatique qui concentre toute l’attention, en particulier sur les internets, pendant une courte période. Une tactique promotionnelle attrayante pour les médias qui publient leurs articles et font en sorte que le nombre de visiteur ∙se ∙s sur leur page soit suffisamment rémunéré par la publicité. Mots-clés: millennial pink, tendances, marketing genré, symbolique des couleurs ABSTRACT In August 2016, fashion journalist Véronique Hyland wrote an article in New York Magazine where she noted that a wave of pink was gradually invading the world of fashion and design.

Now their 6-year romantic relationship is put to the test when Dan receives an attractive job offer from the record label with whom he interns, and he must choose between a move forward and a future with Mel. Growth and temptation happen – but will their relationship remain part of their future? Writer/director Hannah Fidell explores the struggles of young love as it begins to face the next steps into adulthood. Taissa Farmiga and Ben Rosenfield give warm, genuine performances as Mel and Dan, alongside Lindsay Burdge (star of Fidell’s A TEACHER) as a colleague of Dan’s who entices him in more ways than one. HANNAH FIDELL DISCUSSES 6 YEARS I wrote 6 Years focusing on the relationship of two young adults. Who hasn’t had a first love? And who hasn’t gone through a breakup with said first love? (for those of you who are married to that first person...please ignore…) More than anything though, I modeled Dan and Mel’s world on my group of friends in college. Although, the fighting and the physical violence, that was pure fiction. The script was in great hands with Taissa and Ben.

They are faced with a world where rumor is the only guide, trust is a scarce commodity, gas is king and loneliness is excruciating. To battle starvation, invasion and despair, Nell and Eva fall deeper into a primitive life that tests their endurance and bond. Ultimately, the sisters must work together to survive and learn to discover what the earth will provide.

  • Loki Production Brief
    PRODUCTION BRIEF “I am Loki, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.” —Loki arvel Studios’ “Loki,” an original live-action series created exclusively for Disney+, features the mercurial God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow. The series, described as a crime-thriller meets epic-adventure, takes place after the events Mof “Avengers: Endgame.” “‘Loki’ is intriguingly different with a bold creative swing,” says Kevin Feige, President, Marvel Studios and Chief Creative Officer, Marvel. “This series breaks new ground for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it, and lays the groundwork for things to come.” The starting point of the series is the moment in “Avengers: Endgame” when the 2012 Loki takes the Tesseract—from there Loki lands in the hands of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), which is outside of the timeline, concurrent to the current day Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his cross-timeline journey, Loki finds himself a fish out of water as he tries to navigate—and manipulate—his way through the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Time Variance Authority and its by-the-numbers mentality. This is Loki as you have never seen him. Stripped of his self- proclaimed majesty but with his ego still intact, Loki faces consequences he never thought could happen to such a supreme being as himself. In that, there is a lot of humor as he is taken down a few pegs and struggles to find his footing in the unforgiving bureaucracy of the Time Variance Authority. As the series progresses, we see different sides of Loki as he is drawn into helping to solve a serious crime with an agent 1 of the TVA, Mobius, who needs his “unique Loki perspective” to locate the culprits and mend the timeline.
