Levi's joins fight against Proposition 8

Levi Strauss & Co., one of the oldest and most prestigious clothing and apparel companies in the world today, joined Pacific Gas & Electric as co-chair of the No on 8 Campaign Equality Business Council, The AP reports. "Everybody wins when businesses take an important leadership role in ensuring that California remains a place where no one is treated differently under the law. Levi Strauss & Co., and other members of the Business Council, recognize that gay and lesbians are their employees, their shareholders, customers, neighbors and friends. We welcome Levi Strauss & Co. as Council Co-Chair and look forward to many more California businesses joining our effort," says Geoff Kors, a member of the NO on Prop 8 Executive Committee. Levi Strauss has pledged $25,000 to Equality for All, the coalition leading the No on 8 campaign and Robert Haas, the company's chairman emeritus, and his wife have given $100,000, says company spokesman E.J. Bernacki. In July, PG&E donated $250,000 to the campaign to defeat the gay marriage ban and announced it hoped to persuade other corporations to do the same.
Businesses can endorse the campaign, join the council, lend use of their company name and give monetary contributions to help defeat Proposition 8 by visiting NoOnProp8.com.

Legendary Yves Saint Laurent dies at 71

French fashion icon Yves Saint Laurent, widely hailed as one of the greatest designers of the 20th century, died Sunday in Paris. He was 71, announced his foundation, the Pierre-Berge-Saint Laurent Foundation. The reclusive French maestro, who had retired from haute couture in 2002 after four decades at the top of his trade, had been ill for some time. Saint Laurent's longtime business partner and lover Pierre Berge, hailed him as a fashion revolutionary: "Yves Saint Laurent knew perfectly well that he had transformed the world and fashion, that all the women of the world owed a debt to him in a certain way." One of a handful of designers who dominated 20th century fashion - on a par with Christian Dior, Coco Chanel and Paul Poiret - Yves Henri Donat Mathieu Saint Laurent was born in the coastal town of Oran, Algeria, on August 1, 1936, at a time when the North African country was still considered part of France. A shy, lonely, child, he became fascinated by clothes, and already had a solid portfolio of sketches when he first arrived in Paris in 1953, aged 17.

Pedro Andrade in Gurrie's Companionist

Pedro Andrade in Jarrah Gurrie's Companionist

Two minutes and thirty six seconds is all director Jarrah Gurrie needs to communicate the battle between love and loss in his Companionist. Simple and direct, Gurrie does not waste time with gratuitous shots or unnecessary coverage. Pedro Andrade, the heart broken lover, is the film’s only actor. Watch the short film...

Companionist, a short film by Jarrah Gurrie, starring Pedro Andrade.

Pedro Andrade left Brazil to continue a career modeling and acting in New York. "I still haven’t been to one place where gays are as respected as in New York. Rio for sure doesn’t compare in that sense. I feel like culturally New York is a lot more mature than Rio, and even though I think it is one of the best and most gorgeous places on Earth, we still have a long way to go in terms of acceptance and respect towards each other," says Pedro. Dashing and gracious, Pedro has many skills, he is schooled in Journalism, he's a DJ and he's a host for First Look on LX TV. Watch a video where sexy Pedro is spinning tracks and DJ'ing at Cabanas at the Maritime Hotel, setting the mood for a momentous night on the dance floor...
