  • EXCLUSIVE: Sella McCartney has infuriated her neighbours in The Hamptons by building a 5ft high sea wall that blocks her community’s decades-old private access to its beach. The fashion designer and husband Alasdhair (correct) Willis paid $1.7million for their three-bedroom ocean front home and adjoining land three years ago. But erosion is claimed to have destroyed 40 feet of frontage in just one year so they joined with an adjacent neighbour to build the wall to save both properties. However, the imposing 230ft wide sandbag structure also runs across a beach entrance road between the two homes that is for everyone living in the private avenue. It slopes up on the avenue side but has had a 5ft sheer drop on to the beach since October last year because a storm washed away the sand that made it resemble a dune. This has made it impossible for most of the residents, many of them elderly, to get down on to the beach. Some neighbours, many having lived for decades in the quiet lane in Amagansett, Long Island, New York, have now branded the designer, 47, arrogant and high-handed. Despite The Hamptons being a millionaires’ playground with high property prices, most residents in the private avenue have lived there for many years and hold down regular jobs or are retired. Stella and her family are believed to have spent part of last summer at the modest 1176 sq ft home. She has four children with Alasdhair, the creative director at boot brand Hunter. The couple advertised the home as a summer rental in 2017 for up to $30,000 a month. Stella’s dad Sir Paul, 77, has had a home in uber-fashionable Amagansett since the 1990s and pal Gwyneth Paltrow, 46, also has a house there. Stella and the neighbour’s wall went up in July last year. But her permit with East Hampton council expired in April. She is now applying for a time extension– but is willing to remove the sandbags across the 30ft wide access and run them round the side of her house, according to the latest pape

  • June 16, 2017 - Kolkata, west bengal, India - Kolkata, West Bengal ,India : The Modi government has imposed a 12% G.S.T on sanitary napkins, while traditional patriarchal marker symbols like Sindoor have been made tax free. Out of 33 crore 50 lakh .women who menstruate in this country, only 30% have access to sanitary napkins, the rest 70% are compelled to use sand and dry wood, thereby causing cervical cancer which takes away 80,000 lives .yearly. Instead of making sanitary health widely accessible, the imposition of 12% G.S.T. makes the right to sanitary health more rare and limited, confined to a few and subject to the directives of world .capitalism, international pharmaceutical lobbies and the Modi Government. This tax reinforces the traditional patriarchal stigma and taboo upon such a normal bodily process as menstruation. An .humanitarian activist group of Kolkata called ' ebong Manobi ' organised a programme infront of Jadavpur university to aware people and to raise voice  against this heinous tax.

  • June 16, 2017 - Kolkata, west bengal, India - Kolkata, West Bengal ,India : The Modi government has imposed a 12% G.S.T on sanitary napkins, while traditional patriarchal marker symbols like Sindoor have been made tax free. Out of 33 crore 50 lakh .women who menstruate in this country, only 30% have access to sanitary napkins, the rest 70% are compelled to use sand and dry wood, thereby causing cervical cancer which takes away 80,000 lives .yearly. Instead of making sanitary health widely accessible, the imposition of 12% G.S.T. makes the right to sanitary health more rare and limited, confined to a few and subject to the directives of world .capitalism, international pharmaceutical lobbies and the Modi Government. This tax reinforces the traditional patriarchal stigma and taboo upon such a normal bodily process as menstruation. An .humanitarian activist group of Kolkata called ' ebong Manobi ' organised a programme infront of Jadavpur university to aware people and to raise voice  against this heinous tax.

Aboard Aurora Station, travelers will fly freely through the space station in zero gravity. Guests will have the opportunity to participate in research experiments and even livestream via high-speed wireless internet. “We developed Aurora Station to provide a turnkey destination in space. Upon launch, Aurora Station goes into service immediately, bringing travelers into space quicker and at a lower price point than ever seen before, while still providing an unforgettable experience,” said Frank Bunger, chief executive officer and founder of Orion Span. “Orion Span has additionally taken what was historically a 24-month training regimen to prepare travelers to visit a space station and streamlined it to three months, at a fraction of the cost. Our goal is to make space accessible to all, by continuing to drive greater value at lower cost.” Accommodations for four paying guests along with two crewmembers complete the initial plans for Aurora Station. But as demand grows Orion Span intends to add to the original Aurora Station core. While the ISS is 357 feet long, Aurora Station will begin at just 43.5 feet long and 14.1 feet wide — roughly the size of a large private jet's cabin. Visitors to Aurora Station will participate in the 3-month training regimen to prepare themselves for the journey and stay in orbit.

  • These artistic impressions reveal the inside of the world’s first luxury space hotel — which is set to go into orbit in two years time. For an out-of-this-world-price of $9.5 million dollars, guests of the Aurora Station will get to see up to 16 sunrises in one day and float in zero gravity while traversing the planet in Low Earth Orbit at a height of around 200 miles, making for stunning views. The space station can host six people at a time, including two crew members for a 12-day space adventure. The space hotel, which has been developed by US-based space technology start-up Orion Span, is set to welcome its first guests in 2022, with the station’s launch set for 2021. Frank Bunger, CEO and founder of Orion Span, said: “Our goal is to make space accessible to all.” The space station — which will be around the size of a private jet at 12 feet wide by 35 feet long — will have fun activities on board including growing food while in orbit and zero gravity ping pong. Guests, who will be able to float throughout the hotel, will also be able to have video chats to friends and family back home via high-speed wireless Internet and will receive a hero’s welcome upon their return. Mr Bunger added: “With customizable private sleeping pods, top-quality space food and luxury design details, Aurora Station is ushering in a new era of space travel, setting the bar higher than ever before.”. 24 Jan 2019 Pictured: Renderings show inside the Aurora Station, the world’s first space hotel, which is set for lift off in 2021.
