Latin Star Soleil & Vivalivetv Join the Kingdom of Kush 32nd Anniversary Gala: A Historic Night of Unity and Culture
The Kingdom of Kush Celebrates 32 Years of Rebirth, Sovereignty & Global Vision NEW YORK, June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On Friday, June 13, 2025, the Kingdom of Kush will host its 32nd Anniversary Gala & Awards Ceremony at 630 Second Avenue, New York, NY, in a landmark event spotlighting the rebirth of one of the world's most storied civilizations. Under the visionary leadership of HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS, Mansa Suliman Al Kushi, this high-profile gathering of royalty,diplomats, global thinkers, investors, and cultural stewards will celebrate the Kingdom's achievements and future ambitions. A Nation Reborn in Modern Times Inspired by the legacy of the ancient Kushite empire, the Kingdom of Kush has reemerged in Bir Tawil, an unclaimed land between Egypt and Sudan. The nation's mission is bold: to become a digitally enabled, sovereign homeland rooted in African heritage and driven by global innovation. With a constitution in place, diplomatic outreach underway, and sustainable economic development projects already in motion, the Kingdom of Kush is more than a revival—it is a unified rebuilding of history. Rooted in ancestral legacy and driven by modern vision, this movement is a return to sovereignty, identity, and collective power. Kush existed. It flourished. It was lost. And now, through global unity and purpose, it rises once more. "We are not reviving history—we are writing the future," said HIS EXCELLENCY, Prime Minister Joseph Jouthe. "Our mission is to unite tradition and technology, and build a beacon of Pan-African prosperity and global cooperation. The Kingdom of Kush is proud to announce the appearance and performance of international Latin sensation Soleil at its 32nd Anniversary Gala and Awards Ceremony, taking place June 13, 2025, in New York City.

Her performance marks a bridge between diasporas, reminding us that the rebuilding of Kush is not just an African movement—it is a global call for solidarity, identity, and collective legacy. In a night filled with royalty, cultural restoration, and the coronation of Queen Mothers, Soleil's appearance underscores the Kingdom's vision: a future where music, history, and people converge in harmony. "As a Latina, it's an honor to be part of something that transcends borders," Soleil shared.

‘My partner, my shadow:' Glastonbury police announce K9's diagnosis, retirement
GLASTONBURY, Conn. (WTNH) — Glastonbury police Thursday announced K9 Soleil will be retiring from active duty this summer after being diagnosed with degenerative myelopathy. The disease is similar to ALS in humans, affecting the spinal cord and leading to muscle weakness, loss of coordination in the hind legs and respiratory failure eventually. A look inside the Connecticut State Police's K-9 training facility There is no cure. Police said life expectancy is often several months to a year. The department decided Soleil's final days should be spent at home with her family, enjoying sunshine, soft beds and toys. Soleil's handler Officer Cavanaugh said they became a team in 2019. 'I always knew this day would come, but I never expected it to come so soon. She's been more than a working dog, she's been my partner, my shadow, protector and one of the best parts of every day,' Cavanaugh said in a Facebook post. K9 apprehends Torrington man who ran from state police Cavanaugh said Soleil's time is cut short, but her impact on the community won't be forgotten. 'As I say goodbye to this incredible chapter with Soleil, I know Soleil's legacy will live on in everything I do and in every step that follows,' Cavanaugh said. Soleil will retire on July 1.

B&M selling 'absolute bargain' as £300 beauty set on offer for £40
The budget retailer has knocked £250 off in its latest deal, and customers are desperate to get their hands on it B&M customers have been left astounded after one shopper revealed a premium product she snapped up for a mere fraction of its original selling price. The budget retailer is known nationwide for offering a wide range of home goods and essentials at wallet-friendly prices. The store regularly refreshes its stock with heavily discounted items, and the latest bargain has set tongues wagging on social media. A whopping £259.01 has been slashed off the price of a hair styling kit, sparking a buzz amongst hundreds online. On the well-followed Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, a user named Kylie Whitaker posted a photo of the Soleil Endless Styling Set spotted at her local B&M. The kit includes straighteners, a curling wand, and a hot styling brush, reports the Liverpool Echo. A shelf label indicated that the set's original recommended retail price was £299, but thanks to B&M's substantial discount, the trio of styling tools is available for just £39.99. Kylie captioned her find: "Not sure if these have been posted before or if they're any good, but reviews online look good! £40 down from £260. Curling tong, straightener and hot brush." It appears that the set is currently an in-store exclusive, as it hasn't made its way onto B&M's website yet. Some of the tools included in the B&M set can be viewed on what appears to be the official Soleil website. According to the site, Soleil's IR Plus Flat Iron"releases a large amount of negative ions, neutralising the positive ions and reducing the amount of frizz and static". Its Styling Comb includes five temperature settings and 'Ionic technology '. After testing the products, Kylie revisited the comments to post her review. "I've tried the styling brush and straightners. Both have temp controls - straighteners up to 230. Honestly both are VERY good," she said. "The straightners outperform my admittedly very old GHD'S. The styling brush impressed me too, I prefer it over the round brush on my Dyson Air Wrap as it's much larger (although likely a lot more damaging). I haven't given the tongs a go yet. It comes with a glove for those, which I think is a thoughtful addition. There's also a warranty included!" She even assured other customers: "To those concerned that they may be fakes, I've just registered the warranty. They def aren't fake." Her feedback quickly prompted a wave of responses in the comments. Donna chimed in with her opinion: "Very definitely not non-brand and an absolute bargain looking at prices in the website." Meanwhile, Sky added: "Bargain! Just wish the plates on the straighteners were slight wider, slimmer ones always rip at my hair." Yet Rachel remained sceptical, posting a screenshot claiming to show the same set available online for £25, and cautioned: "I'm sorry but these aren't a bargain. Always be wary of the RRP on things. The tools do not look like the ones on the real Soleil website." Yet, a different Facebook user named Stevie responded: "That's not soleil's website you've screen shot from. But they're old line Soleil and they would've originally been very expensive given their current straighteners and styling brushes are around £300 each."
