OAKLAND — A different day brings the same story for many downtown Oakland businesses just trying to keep their income coming. The threats, harassment, stolen income, even defecation on their property, and all the damage they are constantly cleaning up is starting to hit a breaking point for business owners in their effort to keep going strong. The latest incident at Tay Ho Oakland Restaurant & Bar brought an unruly person into their restaurant, who threatened and harassed staff and customers inside. "Every day, it’s like what’s next," said Denise Huynh, the owner of Tay Ho Oakland Restaurant & Bar. "If someone is walking through my front door, I am in that mode of who is going to walk in, who is going to come in and give us trouble again because this has happened so often." Huynh’s mother owns the restaurant with her and spends her time cooking up their Vietnamese dishes in the kitchen. The family-owned restaurant has been here for 13 years. The colorful décor brings some light to the concrete jungle downtown but even those efforts get destroyed. "I had a cool artist that did some work, he spent weeks working on it," said Huynh. […]

Photo: Courtesy of Armani Armani Beauty wants to evolve for new generations without diluting what makes it classic. That means staying loyal to longtime ambassadors like Cate Blanchett, while signing up younger talent rooted in pop culture to boost its appeal on social media and other digital channels. Today, Armani Beauty is introducing Gen A, a cast of young celebrities who will represent the brand on a global stage. They include actors Camila Mendes, Maude Apatow, Lili Reinhart, Isabela Merced, Chase Stokes, Jonathan Daviss, Lukas Gage and Michael Evans Behling. All except one are in their twenties and feature in popular TV shows, such as Euphoria and Riverdale . Most importantly, they’re genuine fans of Armani Beauty — a primary requirement when selecting ambassadors, says the brand’s global president Veronique Gautier. It’s important that they’re not just pushing products, but feel excited and want to be part of the community, she explains. Unlike past ambassadors, they won’t appear much across traditional touchpoints such as billboards and magazines, but will feature in digital campaigns across e-commerce and social platforms including TikTok and Instagram, fronting a monthly cadence of online content. They’ll also represent the Italian brand at global events, such […]

8 Myles Mac N’ Cheese is clean, meaning no additives, but it is still mac and cheese. (Courtesy 8 Myles Mac N’ Cheese) McLean, Virginia, entrepreneur Myles Powell has grown his line of frozen, “clean” mac and cheese — 8 Myles Mac N’ Cheese — from a handful of stores to more than 1,200 retail locations, including retailers like Whole Foods, Sprouts Farmers Market, Balducci’s, and Target. Powell has raised more than $650,000 to date through angel investors, venture capital investors, and from small investors through crowd-investing platform Honeycomb Credit . Powell grew up in a food-loving family that spent a lot of time around the dining room table. Family favorites were always comfort food — collard greens, fried chicken and mac and cheese. While studying engineering, he started a food blog in 2012. That caught the attention of the Food Network after he applied to be on a new Food Network show, “America’s Best Cook,” in 2013. That did not go well. “Mind you, I had been cooking for just a couple of years,” Powell said. “I was still a rookie. The result was not great. I had to make duck, which I’d never cooked before. I got […]
