LONGINES MASTERS SEASON IV

I am thrilled to announce our collaboration with Longines Masters for their fourth season.

It will be a highly intriguing and colorful event!

EEM presents a new Season of the Longines Masters  Paris - Hong Kong - New York and invites fans from around the world to enjoy a remarkable lineup of sports, entertainment, and unforgettable moments.

I designed new artworks with a pop interpretation full of vibrant colors! Hope you enjoy and like it!

🇫🇷 For me, Paris is the city of literature and fashion. I got to pick blue as the main color because it represents the intellectuality and the calming impact of literature and the timelessness of fashion despite having been changed over the course of years. Other vivid colors I've included are the result of the indulgence of other senses when literature and fashion are combined.

🇭🇰 In the Hong Kong design, I focused on the traditional and modern lives living together, the hectic streets of the city, and the multi-colored cuisine culture. I expressed the blend of modern and traditional lifestyles boldly with hues of red. Moreover, the hectic streets and the unlimitedly colorful cuisine with blue and green colors. The iconic red boat of the city, the dynamism of the horse, and the joy on the faces of spectators are the perfect description of Hong Kong for me.

🇺🇸 New York first comes into mind as the metropolitan city of the world. I tried to display a prominent charm of the city, diversity, using other vivid colors. The iconic Statue of Liberty, joyful people in the city, and their sense of becoming free with art are some other factors I've been inspired by while portraying New York.

AMERICA'S SOFT POWER

New collage for The Economist printed on this week’s issue 📌 JUNE 12th - 18th

America’s Soft Power

Hollywood, McDonald’s and Levi’s jeans are all expressions of America’s soft power.⁠

But now it is memes, not McDonald’s, that are the main vehicle for the country’s cultural influence.⁠

Social media are turbocharging the export of America’s political culture. This helps explain why movements like Black Lives Matter have spread as far as Hungary, Nigeria and South Korea.⁠

WHO PICKS THE OSCAR WINNERS

who picks the oscar winners?

We’re less than a week away from the Academy Awards, and somewhere an accountant is counting up votes and figuring out what name to write inside an envelope that says “supporting actor.” That name could very well be Mahershala Ali, who turned in an excellent performance in the film “Moonlight.” But how exactly does that name get in that envelope, and how exactly did Ali get on that list of nominees? In this video, we explore the mysterious and fascinating Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the group that decides who gets to win an Oscar.

Minneapolis, 25 de maio de 2020. George Foyd, preto, foi assassinado por um policial, branco, covardemente. Floyd já algemado e no chão, não conseguia respirar pelo fato do policial estar com o joelho sob seu pescoço. 8 minutos e 46 segundos, este foi o tempo que Floyd, preto, ficou avisando que já lhe faltava ar e suplicava por ajuda.

Mais um preto assassinado pela polícia branca e claro, isso precisou ser gritado para o mundo e infelizmente da única forma que os brancos ouvem: com um grito violento.

Signal: Bodybuilders are using steroids injections to build up muscles

Driver: Fast-paced society resulting in people being inpatient and urges to get “Dream body” in a short period of time
So what:
-Harmful for the body as it affects the testosterone
-More people will seek for harmful yet time efficiency ways to get what they want to achieve quickly
-People will become more self conscience of their body shape

A 12-member joint team of Noida Police and Uttar Pradesh health officials arrested three individuals Saturday from Greater Noida for allegedly producing and selling fake steroids. The raid sheds light on a booming market that centres around 'six-pack abs in x days'. The desire to look like the next muscular actor/celebrity is so rampant that users completely disregard both the dosage limit and the authenticity of the steroids they consume. Across NCR, gyms are often the epicentre of fake steroid rackets because they push customers to take them to gain muscles quickly.

Items worth Rs 2 crore have been seized from the three people arrested, identified as Anuj Kumar Singh (30), Bachan Kumar (24) and Pritam (25), said Meerut division drug inspector Vaibhav Babber, who also led the team that conducted the raid based on a tip-off.

The bust

Elamaran G, additional DCM (crime) Gautam Buddh Nagar, said Anuj has completed BTech in biotechnology from a Chennai institute. The men purchased raw materials from Praveen Dhankad and Somveer Dhankad, from Rewari in Haryana, and and made tablets and injections out of them that were then sold to users. The two men are currently on the run. The officer denied media reports claiming that 'fake protein supplements' have also been recovered.

Anuj, the main accused, had worked in a pharmaceutical company for six years before starting the unit to manufacture fake steroids. The products would be bottled in containers with fake lables of some Russian and other foreign firms, which is punishable by law.

Inspector Vaibhav Babber said that the samples recovered have been sent to Food Safety & Drug Administration Uttar Pradesh inLucknow to check for components. But mostly, these steroids contain the hormone testosterone, which aids in building muscle.

Steroid and the obsession with 'cuts, 'pump'

Anabolic steroids, also known as androgenic steroids, are synthetic derivatives of testosterone. In India, legal and illegal use of anabolic steroids are gaining popularity in the world of bodybuilding. While professional bodybuilders would occasionally use towards steroids once, it is now fairly common even in neighbourhood gyms. Taken either orally or through injection, these steroids aid in getting lean with extremely low body fat levels, and gaining muscle faster by fastening recovery period, among others.

Babber too speculates that the market for fake steroids seized at the Bhumi Gold Avenue raid in Greater Noida are probably Haryana and Delhi, where there has always been a popularity for a certain kind of physique among men.

Jatin Jamdagni, who runs Delhi Combat Club, says, "Everyone wants to build muscles and have a muscular body in two months. They look at athletes and want bodies like theirs without realising that many use steroids, even if they do not accept it openly."

Occasionally, even trainers urge people to try steroids to get that dream body 'quickly' and not everyone reads through the potential side-effects before opting for steroids. In the fitness industry, aesthetics often overpower the desire to be fit.

Babber too echoes this and adds how wanting 'cuts' (in physique parlance) often means people, especially men, are willing to get injected with steroids. This creates a market that is largely unregulated with rampant misuse of 'foreign brands' labels and fake products, including whey protein to be sold off for 'good bargains' to those who wish to get a body like their next favourite actor as fast as possible.

India has a burgeoning market of steroids in bodybuilding, and it is mostly unregulated. Steroids should be taken in consultation with a medical professional. But in the gym industry focused on quick 'six-pack abs', that rarely happens if ever.

Dr Ayush Dhawan said that if taken in unsupervised amounts, which is pretty frequent in the business of bodybuilding in India, it can cause severe side-effects like male-pattern baldness, risk to heart and kidney as well as liver. But the allure of 'looking strong' is such that one often buys and uses these products indiscriminately.

When taken in moderation, steroids can help enhance performance, but pursuit of 'rock-hard' bodies means one amps up the dose by even 1 00 times. Selling steroids is always the easy way of making a quick buck, especially when men in gyms are often pushed to have bulging muscles.

Social media does not help matters when everyone puts up pictures of 'pump' and sets unrealistic expectations among those following them, because rarely do these pictures address the time taken to build those muscles. This allows for rackets like the one in Noida to exist and flourish.

Signal: Surgereans are making use of Augmented Reality  to create 3D simulations for desired results

Driver: Plastic surgery is becoming more technologically advanced as we are heading towards a more tech-savvy 21st century to improve one’s appearance efficiently and effectively.
So what?
- People who wish to go through facial reconstructive bone surgery will be able to see what they look like before the surgery is carried out
- More people will go for surgery as it will been as the new norm after trying out a filter of their preference to hide their insecurities.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A plastic surgery research group has developed an augmented reality system that enables them to create 3D simulations of the desired results of facial reconstructive procedures and project them over the patient's face during surgery, reports a study in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery-Global Open®, the official open-access medical journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).

Koichi Ueda, MD, PhD, Daisuke Mitsuno, MD, and colleagues of Osaka Medical College, Japan, report the development and initial experience with an augmented reality (AR) system for evaluation of improvements of the body surface, is a key consideration in plastic surgery. Initial experience in eight cases suggests that augmented reality could be a useful guide to planning, performing and evaluating the results of facial reconstruction and other procedures.

Development and Initial Experience of Augmented Reality for Plastic Surgery

"Augmented reality is a technology that combines computer-generated images on a screen with a real object or scene," Drs. Ueda and Mitsuno said. "We sought to develop a sophisticated yet simple and modifiable AR technique for use during plastic and reconstructive surgery."

The researchers used a high-definition digital camera to capture 3D image of the facial surface and computed tomography scans to obtain digital information on the underlying facial bones for each patient. These digital data were then manipulated to create 3D simulations of the ideal final results. For example, in a patient with a fractured cheekbone, the reconstruction was simulated by obtaining and reversing an image of the opposite, uninjured bone.

Using a pair of commercially available smart glasses, the surgeon was able to superimpose the 3D digital simulation image of the desired appearance over the patient's face during surgery. The group used free, open source software products to solve various technical problems, including manipulating and displaying the 3D simulations and lining them up (registration) with the surgical field.

The researchers describe their preliminary experience with AR system in eight patients undergoing reconstructive facial surgery. The AR system helped in planning and confirming reconstruction of the underlying facial bones, for example, in a patient with a congenital bone development disorder and another patient with a complex facial fracture. In all cases, the 3D simulation of the body surface provided a visual reference of the final facial appearance.

With each new case, the group made additional technical refinements to address limitations of the AR system. Although the experimental system was not actually used to guide surgery in this initial experience, it helped in visualizing the planned correction and confirming the final outcome.

"In all cases in this study, the body surface contour after the procedure and the ideal postoperative image almost coincided," Dr. Ueda said.

The group plans further studies to confirm the benefits of using the AR system during plastic and reconstructive surgery and to refine the display method for comparing before and after images. Future innovations may include the ability to quantitatively evaluate the improvements in body surface and even to enable simple navigation of internal organs.

Drs. Ueda and Mitsuno believe AR technology could become a useful tool for teaching surgical skills.

They said, "Our findings are not only useful for body surface evaluation but also for effective evaluation of AR technology in the field of plastic surgery."

Signal: Scientists are inventing and introducing edible meat glue

So what?
- Reduce food wastage as scrap meat can be combined to for a brand new meat
- Restaurants are able to save cost on meat

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
You just paid top dollar for that cut of ribeye or tenderloin.

But you may actually be eating off-cuts, glued together using a product that is allowed here.

Feeling cheated?

Chefs and food suppliers The New Paper on Sunday approached say it is a lot more common that you think.

"It is rather widespread," says a spokesman from gourmet meat supplier mmmm!

"Meat glue is used to combine poorer beef quality or cheaper cuts to create an appearance of a more premium cut of beef or premium beef."

Local celebrity chef Eric Teo says it's used in some places where buffets are available.
SECRET
The practice is known as meat gluing.

Mr Teo, who runs food and beverage consultancy ET Culinary Arts, tells TNPS: "Meat glue is kind of like a secret in the food industry because not many know about it.

"Good, reputable restaurants steer away from it but it is used by some restaurants mainly to cut cost.

"The cost savings come from using the unwanted meat trimmings."

Overseas, the use of meat glue in such a fashion received plenty of media attention after a 2011 exposé of the Australian meat industry. Some reports called it "franken-meat".

The glue is safe for consumption. Known as transglutaminase, it is an enzyme used by chefs to bind together various cuts of meat and is used in producing fishballs and sausages.

But the problem is consumers could be expecting something else and end up being cheated.

One netizen posted about her experience recently.

She did not want to be named but according to the post, she went to the high-end beef restaurant promoting unlimited servings of A5 wagyu beef.

A5 is the highest grade of wagyu beef from Japan. It is characterised by a delicate marbling of fat, depending on which part of the cow the meat comes from.

But she was upset when the meat was served.

She uploaded pictures of the meat and wrote on her Facebook page: "I don't need to be a connoisseur to know that A5 wagyu looks nothing like that.

"The perfectly round slices and lack of marbling look more like chunks of meat glued together with meat glue and sliced to pass off as wagyu."

When TNPS showed the photograph of the beef to food experts, several suspected that meat glue was used.

Chef Sam Leong of Forest restaurant says: "Even for a chef like me, it can be difficult to tell the two apart.

"When I was at a Szechuan steamboat restaurant in China, I didn't even realise that I was eating (reformed) beef until a friend pointed it out that it looked wrong."

The chefs also say that using meat glue is not wrong, as it has other uses in cooking, such as in modernist cooking techniques.

Food and beverage manager Abraham Tan of Royal Plaza on Scotts says: "The use of meat glue is for chefs to create and present dishes creatively by achieving results that are beyond imagination.

"But using meat glue to create the impression of a more premium cut and charging guests for it is not a fair practice."

But few restaurants will say in their menus that they are serving reformed meat, admits Mr Teo.

"If restaurants pretend that the meat they serve is of a premium quality, it is a form of cheating," he says.

Asst Prof Elison Lim from Nanyang Technological University's Nanyang Business School says:

"Consumers too have the responsibility to ensure they don't get deceived. If something marketed as premium steak is priced suspiciously cheaply, that can be a red flag. When something seems too good to be true, it probably is."

Transglutaminase is safe to eat, says assistant professor Yang Hongshun from National University of Singapore's Food Science and Technology programme.

"Unless the companies state that they do not use transglutaminase in their products, its general use is not cheating since transglutaminase is allowed in food," says Dr Yang.

"Companies have the right to use additives for their products as long as this practice follows corresponding regulations.

"Just like beverages, some companies use artificial sweeteners while others use natural sweeteners."

It is then up to the consumer to choose, says Dr Yang.

But while meat glue itself is safe for consumption, director of Food Science and Technology Programme at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) William Chen says there are potential food safety hazards during the preparation process.
BACTERIAL GROWTH
Prof Chen explains: "There are more handling steps in the creation of glued meat, which may give room to bacterial growth.

"This happens not only the 'joint' area but also on other parts of the glued meat."

The risk of food poisoning is also increased when it comes to combined beef, since beef is usually not fully cooked.

"Such meat product should require higher cooking temperature to reduce the potential health hazard as much as possible," says Prof Chen.

Common bacterial growth that could cause illnesses include clostridium, salmonella, listeria, campylobacter and E.coli.

Restaurants and other sellers have the responsibility to provide accurate and adequate information about what they are selling to consumers, says Assistant Professor Elison Lim from NTU's Nanyang Business School.

Prof Lim, a marketing ethics expert, adds: "Of course, consumers also have the responsibility to ensure they don't get deceived.

"If something marketed as 'premium steak' is priced suspiciously cheaply, that can be a red flag.

"When something seems too good to be true, it probably is."
''Good, reputable restaurants steer away from it but it is used by some restaurants mainly to cut cost.'' - Local celebrity chef Eric Teo

Use of meat glue in other countries

In 2011, Australian news programme Today Tonight ran an expose on the country's meat industry, reporting that major meat suppliers had been using meat glue to mislead customers into believing they were buying prime cuts.

There were reports in Germany and the US shedding more light on this practice.

The US Department of Agriculture requires transglutaminase to be on the ingredient label if used, in addition to terms like "formed" or "reformed meat".

Besides misleading consumers, there is also a high risk of bacterial contamination, reported the Irish Examiner.

While meat glue is widely used, some variants are banned.

In 2010, the European Union banned bovine and porcine thrombin, a substance used as an additive to bind separate pieces of meat together into one piece.

Thrombin, which is also banned here, is an alternative to transglutaminase.

How meat glue is used

Demonstration by Prof William Chen at NTU's Food Process Engineering Lab
1. Various cuts of beef are rubbed with transglutaminase - a white powdery substance - as if it was a type of marinate.

2. The meat is layered together to form a row. It is possible to arrange the beef and fat trimmings in such a way that when cut, the cross-section shows a prime cut like rib-eye or tenderloin

3. The combined meat is then wrapped tightly in cling wrap and squeezed to form a long cylindrical shape to resemble a tenderloin before it is cut into steaks.

4. It is then placed in the fridge for more than six hours, allowing the enzyme to combine the cuts of beef into one contiguous piece.

5. The result is virtually indistinguishable from an actual cut of beef, says Prof Chen. When the meat is cooked, it becomes impossible to tell.

You get what you pay for

How does reformed meat compare with actual prime cuts?
COST

Beef scraps or trims and unwanted parts of beef cost little.

Cheap cuts of beef, such as brisket and chuck, cost between $3 and $10 for 200g. An equivalent-sized prime cut, such as a tenderloin or ribeye, can cost between $20 and $50.

TEXTURE

Raw reformed beef may look less firm than an actual cut of raw beef.

It is harder to tell the difference in texture when they are cooked.

Reformed beef can fall apart during cooking if the meat is not glued together properly.

SHAPE

When cut, reformed beef can take on a circular shape due to the way it is made, says food and beverage manager Abraham Tan.

Actual cuts of beef can be shaped differently.

TASTE

The flavour will be significantly different, says a spokesman of Mmmm!, a gourmet food supplier. This is because the amount of marbling, or intramuscular fat, on the meat cannot be reproduced with meat glue.

AVA: Using meat glue to cheat is not allowed

Using meat glue with the intention to pass off reformed meat as more expensive cuts is not permitted, says an Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) spokesman.
"This is not permitted as it would be potentially misleading to consumers."

Transglutaminase has been assessed to be safe and permitted for use in countries like Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US, says the spokesman.

Singapore allows transglutaminase to be used as a general purpose food additive. "It is allowed to be used as a processing aid, under good manufacturing practice, in processed meat and fish products such as surimi, ham and fishballs to bind proteins together in the meat."

AVA advises consumers to cook foods thoroughly to kill any harmful bacteria that may be present as microorganisms can be naturally present on raw meat surfaces.

This is especially important when preparing meals for vulnerable individuals including children, seniors, pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems.
