Beto O’Rourke responds to heckler over Uvalde with expletive
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Democrat Beto O'Rourke responded to a heckler at a campaign stop with an expletive after the Texas gubernatorial candidate heard a cackled laugh while criticizing the ease with which the Uvalde elementary school gunman legally purchased an AR-15-style rifle. By Thursday, video of O'Rourke's exchange at a town hall in rural Mineral Wells had drawn millions of views on social media, becoming the latest instance in which O'Rourke has gotten attention for his calls for stricter gun laws following one of the deadliest classroom shootings in U.S. history. O'Rourke on Wednesday was railing against how the 18-year-old gunman in Uvalde was able to legally purchase a weapon “originally designed for use on the battlefields" and take it into a classroom of fourth-graders. When a person in the crowd laughed, O'Rourke paused and pointed in their direction. “It may be funny to you, (obscenity), but it’s not funny to me," O'Rourke said. Supporters stood up and cheered. … [Read more...] about Beto O’Rourke responds to heckler over Uvalde with expletive

A Glimpse Inside a Florentine Silk-Weaving Workshop
In a quiet corner of the bohemian district of San Frediano, hidden behind an 18th-century iron gate that opens onto a whimsical wisteria-covered alleyway, lies a Florentine cultural treasure: the Antico Setificio Fiorentino , or Antique Florentine Silk Mill, which has been producing precious textiles since 1786. To enter through the atelier’s large, worn timber door is to slip back through time and revisit the enchantment and beauty of a more opulent era. Inside, 18th- and 19th-century timber and iron looms, some towering over 16 feet tall, clatter furiously in rhythm with tens of thousands of luminous silk threads, weaving warp and weft yarns into sumptuous fabrics, guided by the skilled hands of a select team of expert artisans. Since moving to Italy in 2003, I’ve grown increasingly fascinated with the country’s highly talented artisans, their intriguing workshops and the quality of their products, particularly in the Tuscan capital of Florence. When I … [Read more...] about A Glimpse Inside a Florentine Silk-Weaving Workshop
