LightingGuide.org’s new Lumens vs Watts guide helps consumers compare bulb brightness, wattage, and LED equivalents with easy conversion charts.

New York City, NY, United States, 8th May 2026 – LightingGuide.org has launched a new Lumens vs Watts guide to help consumers compare bulb brightness, wattage, and LED equivalents with more clarity. The new online resource explains how lumens and watts differ, includes a practical lumens to watts conversion chart, and helps readers choose the right light bulb for common rooms and everyday lighting needs.

As LED lighting becomes the standard in homes and businesses, many shoppers still rely on wattage when trying to judge bulb brightness. That can make buying the right bulb more confusing than it should be. LightingGuide.org’s new guide breaks that down in simple terms by explaining that watts measure energy use, while lumens measure brightness. For anyone comparing LED bulbs, incandescent bulbs, or replacement options, lumens are often the better number to watch.

The new Lumens vs Watts Conversion Chart gives readers a straightforward way to compare common brightness levels with estimated wattage across bulb types. It includes helpful examples showing how traditional incandescent wattages translate to approximate lumen output and modern LED equivalents. For example, a 60 watt incandescent bulb typically produces about 800 lumens, while an LED bulb can often produce similar brightness using only 8 to 10 watts.

In addition to the chart itself, the guide explains how to estimate LED wattage from lumens using a general efficiency range for modern LED bulbs. It also gives practical context for how brightness may vary depending on where the bulb is used. Readers can quickly compare recommended lumen ranges for spaces such as living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and bathrooms, making the guide useful not just for technical comparison, but for real purchasing decisions.

The resource was created for homeowners, renters, DIY shoppers, and anyone trying to understand the difference between brightness and energy consumption before buying replacement bulbs. Whether someone is searching for a 60 watt equivalent LED, trying to understand how many lumens they need for a kitchen, or comparing LED watts to incandescent watts, the guide is designed to make the answer easier to find and easier to understand.

LightingGuide.org also connects readers to additional educational content on common brightness levels, including what 100 lumens, 500 lumens, 800 lumens, 1000 lumens, 1500 lumens, 2000 lumens, and 3000 lumens look like in practical use. Together, these resources help users move beyond outdated wattage based shopping and make more informed lighting decisions based on brightness, efficiency, and room function.

With the launch of this new Lumens vs Watts guide, LightingGuide.org continues expanding its consumer lighting resources with practical, seaeducational content focused on light bulb brightness, LED conversion, and energy efficient lighting choices.

Reveals Key Visual, Main Trailer and New Casts! Unveils the Opening Theme Song “shusho” performed by Macaroni Empitsu

Tokyo, Japan, 8th May 2026 – CyberAgent, Inc. is excited to share that the TV anime The World Is Dancing (co-produced by Shochiku and CyberAgent) will officially start broadcasting and streaming on July 2, 2026.

Along with the announcement, the key visual and main trailer have been revealed. The newly revealed main trailer features the opening theme song “Shusyo” performed by Macaroni Empitsu which is also unveiled for the first time.  Additionally, comments from the new cast members, Takahiro Sakurai as the powerful shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and Nobuo Tobita, Mamiko Noto, Inori Minase, and Hazuki Seto. 

Character illustrations and heartfelt comments from each cast member have also arrived.

The World Is Dancing is a manga by Kazuto Mihara that ran in Kodansha’s Seinen magazine Morning. Despite being only six volumes long, it drew strong attention for its carefully constructed story and themes that still resonate today.

The English version of the original manga is available online on Chapter 1 – Free Preview.
In an era of constant conflict, a beautiful, intensely curious boy named Oniyasha meets people, laughs, cries, and faces his own weaknesses as he shapes a new form of dance born from life in an ever-changing world.

This is a “dancing story” that might have unfolded when the boy who would one day create Noh—Zeami—was still known as Oniyasha, carried across 600 years to the present.

The anime is produced by animation studio, Cypic (Umamusume: Cinderella Gray, The Summer Hikaru Died). Toshimasa Kuroyanagi, known for his work on the TV anime The Great Passage, the animated film Love Me, Love Me Not, and both the TV and theatrical versions of the Backflip!! series.

With this trailer, a lineup of new characters and their prestigious cast members has been revealed. Joining the previously announced cast—Maaya Uchida (Kogane), Romi Park (Zojiro), Simba Tsuchiya (Ishiya), and Katsuyuki Konishi (Kan’ami)—are figures who shaped the history of Noh: Nobuo Tobita as Nijo Yoshimoto, the historical patron of Zeami, and Mamiko Noto as Nariko, Yoshimitsu’s lawful wife.

The trailer also introduces anime-original characters who add new layers to the story: Chiharu (voiced by Inori Minase), Satsuki (voiced by Hazuki Seto), and the mysterious Inuo.

About The World Is Dancing

STORY:

In 1374, amid the turmoil of the Northern and Southern Courts’ long running conflict, a boy named Oniyasha is born into a family of sarugaku theater performers. He spends his days in a kind of quiet gloom, haunted by a simple but persistent question: Why do people dance? Then, one day, he witnesses a dance that he feels to be “good”—and everything begins to change. This is the story of the beautiful young boy who would one day shape the art of Noh and be remembered as Zeami.

For miniature crafting merchants, Fambase offers a way to move beyond transactional e-commerce and build communities where customers share, learn, and return.

Seattle, Washington, United States, 8th May 2026 – Miniature crafting is built on patience, detail, and shared enthusiasm. Customers do not simply buy a miniature house kit because they need a product. They buy it because they are drawn to a creative process: assembling small rooms, painting tiny furniture, arranging lighting, and bringing a miniature world to life.

On traditional e-commerce platforms, that interest often ends at the transaction. A customer can purchase a miniature house kit from one seller today and choose another seller tomorrow. The platform may complete the sale, but it does not help the merchant build a lasting relationship with the customer or create a shared space around the hobby.

For merchants, this creates a structural challenge. They may have buyers, reviews, and occasional repeat orders, but they often lack a direct community layer around their craft. Customers who develop a deeper interest in miniature crafting may remain scattered across marketplaces, social channels, and search results, where they continue to compare competing products.

From Product Listings to a Dedicated Miniature Crafting Community

For Seattle-based miniature crafting merchant Laura Bennett, this gap became clear as her DIY miniature house kits gained traction online. Customers loved the finished scenes and often asked questions about materials, lighting, assembly techniques, and design variations. But those conversations were fragmented across marketplace messages, comments, and separate chats.

With Fambase, Bennett began moving her most interested customers into a dedicated community space. Instead of only listing products for sale, she could bring together people who were genuinely interested in miniature crafting and give them a place to stay connected after purchase.

Inside the community, customers could share photos of their completed miniature houses, document their handcrafting process, exchange tips, ask questions, and learn from one another. Bennett was no longer only a seller. She became the organizer of a hobby community where customer participation made the business more valuable over time.

Community Interaction Strengthens Commerce

Fambase connects this community activity directly with commerce. When members share their miniature house builds, discuss techniques, or compare design ideas, they create more context for future purchases. A customer who sees another member customize a garden cottage kit may become interested in buying the same kit, related accessories, or the merchant’s next release.

Buy-now tools allow merchants to introduce new miniature house kits, material packs, seasonal designs, and add-on components within the same environment where customers are already engaged. Live auctions can be used for limited handmade models, special prototypes, or one-of-one finished miniature houses. Layered member management helps merchants identify repeat buyers, active contributors, and high-intent hobbyists, then serve them with early previews, priority access, or more targeted updates.

This changes the role of product launches. A new item is no longer just another listing on a crowded marketplace. It is introduced to a group of people who already understand the craft, follow the merchant’s work, and actively participate in the hobby community.

Repeat Purchase Through Shared Interest

In miniature crafting, repeat purchase often comes from inspiration. Customers buy again when they see new design possibilities, learn a new technique, or feel motivated by what others are making. Fambase gives merchants the infrastructure to keep that inspiration active.

As customers share their miniature houses and making process, they help other members discover use cases, build confidence, and stay engaged with the craft. The community becomes a living catalog of customer creativity, while the merchant can release new products into an audience that is already engaged through conversation, trust, and shared interest.

Compared with traditional e-commerce, where customers may leave after one order and continue shopping across competing sellers, Fambase helps miniature crafting merchants retain attention, build customer relationships, and turn hobby engagement into repeatable revenue.

A New Operating Model for Craft-Based Merchants

Miniature crafting merchants are not only selling kits. They are selling creative participation, personal expression, and the satisfaction of making something by hand. That kind of business benefits from more than a product page.

Fambase helps merchants build the community layer that traditional e-commerce platforms often lack. By combining customer connection, peer sharing, product updates, and direct purchasing in one space, Fambase helps miniature crafting sellers turn individual buyers into a long-term hobby community.

Fambase has already enabled merchants and community operators across more than 50 countries to build businesses around structured communities. As sellers move away from fragmented marketplaces, this model is increasingly becoming the foundation for more stable pricing, continuous aftercare, and more reliable relationships.

Fambase is currently open to merchants and partners. Sellers benefit from retaining up to 92 percent of their transaction revenue, while partners can participate in the platform’s growth by bringing in high quality merchants and sharing in long term value creation.

e-thirteen has officially unveiled its new Grappler mountain bike tire line, headlined by a refined Flux GR Radial casing that delivers the best grip and comfort in the brand’s history. This comprehensive lineup provides professional-level performance at affordable prices across E-MTB, Trail, All-Mountain, Enduro, and Downhill categories.

PETALUMA, Calif. – e-thirteen has officially unveiled its new Grappler mountain bike tire line, headlined by a refined Flux GR Radial casing that delivers the best grip and comfort in the brand’s history. This comprehensive lineup provides professional-level performance at affordable prices across E-MTB, Trail, All-Mountain, Enduro, and Downhill categories.

The Radial Advantage: Grip Without Compromise

By developing a true radial construction and adding special features, e-thirteen has achieved several key breakthroughs in MTB tire performance.

So, what makes e-thirteen’s Radial tires one of the world’s best and grippiest MTB tires?

• 30% Larger Contact Patch: At equal air pressures, the radial casing provides a significantly increased footprint, improving traction, stability, and braking bite.
• Unmatched Comfort:  It’s not just about grip. The radial construction adds a sense of “extra travel” to your bike, conforming to the terrain and absorbing micro-variations to reduce rider fatigue
• Dual Apex Stability: Unlike typical radial tires, e-thirteen’s version uses super-stiff Dual Apex Sidewall Inserts. This allows riders to run standard pressures without the excessive lateral flex common to radial competitors, and enhances rim protection. If you ride and live in a very rocky area, we still recommend increasing 15% to a little more for impact.

Engineered Rubber and Tread Tailored for Every Rider:

The Grappler MTB tire lineup utilizes two proprietary compounds and three purpose-built tread designs to eliminate guesswork:

• MoPo Compound: An extra-soft 42a durometer rubber used throughout the entire knob (base and outside). This provides maximum grip and slows tire rebound, damping vibrations for a tacky, high-confidence feel.
• Momentum Compound: A dual-compound option (50a center/42a shoulders) built for longevity and speed. It delivers 85% of MoPo’s maximum cornering grip while improving wear life and rolling speed, making it ideal for E-MTB and rear-wheel use.

Three Tread Options:

• Grappler: The most aggressive, all-condition tire featuring a 2-3-2 tread design, with big center lugs for predictable traction through lean angles, and reduced knob flex.
• Grappler RS: A 27.5” rear-optimized 2-2-2 tread with tall, steep-ramped center knobs for improved braking and faster rolling speed. 
• Grappler TR: The fastest and lightest choice, sharing the RS layout but with a lower-profile center tread, offers speed and efficiency, making it perfect for hardpack and high-speed terrain.

A Simplified, Affordable MTB Tire Range

e-thirteen has scrutinized every model to ensure the lineup is easy to stock and easy to choose. The range includes the heavy-duty Flux GR Radial with Dual Apex Inserts, the supportive Flux GR gravity casing with GR Apex Inserts, and the lightweight Flux AM trail casing. All models feature two-ply construction for ample puncture prevention and Armor Weave sidewall protection.

“Riders shouldn’t have to choose between performance and price. Getting the Grappler right meant a lot of iterations, a lot of back-to-back testing against the best tires on the market, and a lot of feedback from racers who don’t sugarcoat anything. The construction we landed on is the one that beat everything we put it up against — and we’re putting it in riders’ hands at a price that respects their wallets.”  — Joel Peters, e-thirteen

“More grip than ever, more tire for your money.”
The Grappler line is priced to provide an elite performance-to-value ratio, 

with MSRPs ranging from just $59.95 to $79.95. 

Availability: Most models are available now!

Find out more at: https://www.ethirteen.com/pages/grappler-tires

Don’t just take our word for it. Mountain Bike Action gave the Grappler a perfect 5 out of 5 stars. BikeRadar awarded it 4.5 out of 5, praising its grip and cornering confidence. E-MTB riders take note: the Grappler was named one of the best E-MTB tires by BikePerfect and #1 for durability, with the robust casing and sticky MoPo compound handling the extra torque and weight that electric mountain bikes demand.

e-thirteen is a rider-owned company dedicated to solving real-world problems for mountain bikers through authentic engineering and innovative design.

Explora Books will present Stewart T. Monti Sr.’s medieval adventure novels, Mary and Sir Edward, and Hillary and Sir Edward, at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair, June 17–21, at the China National Convention Center (CNCC) in Beijing. Blending medieval intrigue, unlikely heroes, and enduring themes of courage and compassion, the novels follow two young girls whose choices quietly alter the fate of a kingdom.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 8th May 2026 – Set in 12th-century England, the series is rooted in the belief that even the smallest acts of bravery can echo far beyond a single moment. At the heart of both novels are underdogs forced into dangerous circumstances, discovering strength they never knew they possessed. Through acts of mercy, loyalty, and determination, Monti Sr.’s characters challenge the idea that greatness belongs only to the powerful.

The first novel, Mary and Sir Edward, introduces Mary, a twelve-year-old farm girl struggling to help her family survive in the village of Darwick. When she discovers a wounded knight hiding near her home, she makes the dangerous decision to protect him from the men hunting him down. What begins as a quiet act of compassion soon grows into a mission that could determine the kingdom’s stability. Armed with little more than grit, instinct, and courage, Mary becomes an unlikely force in a conflict far larger than herself.

The sequel, Hillary and Sir Edward, follows Mary’s daughter, Hillary, who is raised between the village smithy and the discipline of sword training. Refusing to accept the limitations imposed on her, Hillary disguises herself as a male page and enters the King’s service under Sir Edward.  Her determination and skill eventually lead her into the center of royal intrigue, where she must defend both the throne and her own hard-earned place within a world that underestimates her.

Monti Sr.’s transition into historical fiction was shaped by a lifetime of varied experiences, including his service as a C-130E pilot stationed at RAF Mildenhall in England. During his time overseas, he explored the English countryside and the remnants of wartime airfields, experiences that deepened his fascination with history, legacy, and the people who lived before him. The character of Sir Edward was inspired in part by the author’s uncle, who taught him practical farm skills, marksmanship, and self-reliance while growing up in the mountains of Virginia.

Though separated by a generation, both novels share a common message: courage is not reserved for the extraordinary. Through Mary’s quiet resilience and Hillary’s defiance of convention, Monti Sr.’s stories celebrate perseverance, self-belief, and the enduring impact of ordinary people who choose to do what is right when it matters most.

Visitors to the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair can discover Monti Sr.’s inspiring medieval adventure series at the Explora Books exhibition booth, 5A.B14.

Mary and Sir Edward, and Hillary and Sir Edward are also available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major retailers.

After stepping into the spotlight at the Met Gala, the SPREEAI CEO is attracting attention not just for his company — but for his style, ambition, and mysterious private life.

Every year, the worlds of fashion, celebrity, technology, and culture collide on the biggest stages. This season, one name has been quietly generating a growing amount of attention: John Imah, the CEO and co-founder of SPREEAI.

Fresh off his appearance at the Met Gala, Imah is quickly becoming one of the most interesting new figures moving through fashion’s inner circles. Known for building at the intersection of artificial intelligence and style, he is no longer just being noticed as a tech founder. Increasingly, he is being seen as a cultural presence — polished, ambitious, private, and impossible to ignore.

Standing at 6’1”, with sharp personal style, a confident presence, and the kind of understated charisma that turns heads without trying too hard, Imah represents a very different kind of modern leading man. He is not loud. He is not chasing attention. He is not performing for the internet. And that may be exactly why people are paying attention.

In a world where so much is overshared, Imah appears to move differently. His public image is refined, focused, and intentionally private. He seems equally comfortable in high-level business conversations, fashion-forward rooms, and red-carpet environments — a rare combination that has made him one of the more compelling men to watch in the fashion-tech space.

His growing social media presence is only adding to the intrigue. Particularly on Instagram, Imah has started developing a following for his mix of fashion, travel, founder life, luxury aesthetics, and behind-the-scenes access into worlds most people never get to see. The energy feels curated but authentic — the kind of page people end up scrolling longer than they expected. Following the Met Gala, multiple fashion and entertainment outlets, including The Shade Room, began spotlighting him as one of the “Best Dressed Men” of the night, further cementing his emergence as a standout figure from this year’s event.

Naturally, as his public profile rises, so does curiosity around his personal life.

So, is John Imah dating anyone?

From what is publicly visible, Imah appears to keep his romantic life extremely private. He does not seem to be the type to broadcast relationships online, feed dating rumors, or turn his personal life into a spectacle. While there has been growing interest around who he may be seeing, there is no clear public indication that he is currently in a relationship.

In other words, John Imah appears to be single.

For women who appreciate ambition, intelligence, style, and a little mystery, that detail is hard to ignore.

Imah has the qualities that define a modern bachelor worth watching: he is successful without being flashy, attractive without seeming manufactured, and confident without needing to announce it. He has the discipline of a founder, the sophistication of someone comfortable in luxury spaces, and the quiet magnetism of a man whose best chapters may still be unfolding.

His company, SPREEAI, has already positioned him at the center of one of fashion’s most exciting conversations: how artificial intelligence will shape the future of shopping, styling, and digital identity. But beyond the business momentum, Imah himself is becoming part of the story.

The combination is rare: a tech founder with fashion credibility, cultural access, and bachelor energy.

And while he may be focused on building his company right now, that has not stopped people from wondering who could eventually catch his attention.

For now, John Imah remains one of the most intriguing men emerging from the fashion and technology scene — private, stylish, ambitious, and apparently still on the market.

One thing is clear: after the Met Gala, people are not just watching what John Imah builds next.

They are watching him.

Explora Books will feature award-winning author Judy Quan at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair (June 17–21) at the China National Convention Center (CNCC) in Beijing. Quan’s two powerful books navigate the complex intersections of faith, trauma, and equality. Her featured titles, Surviving Religious Abuse and The Christian Feminist, offer the global audience a roadmap for spiritual restoration and a bold re-examination of women’s roles within a modern Christian context.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 8th May 2026 – The drive to produce these works stems from Quan’s personal history as a survivor of physical, emotional, and spiritual abuse. Her journey deepened when her daughter Ruth helped her recognize that the experiences she had described had a specific name: religious abuse. Compelled by a deep inner calling to share that journey, she became a leading voice for those whose sincerity has been weaponized by controlling religious organizations.

A retired nurse, paralegal, and hospital chaplain, Judy Quan has been a seasoned, award-winning writer since her middle school years. Her life’s work is defined by the servant leader model of discipleship—a mission focused on pointing others toward the Savior while providing practical tools for emotional and spiritual health. She has spent decades in lay ministry alongside her husband, Jeff Quan, Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor. Together, they served for ten years in Stephen Ministry, gaining the rigorous training necessary to accompany individuals through life’s greatest challenges with empathy and scriptural wisdom.

In Surviving Religious Abuse, Quan explores the hidden nature of spiritual manipulation that conceals itself behind a veil of sacred authority. This book provides a vulnerable look at Quan’s own escape from an abusive marriage and the indoctrination of a radical sect that claimed exclusive access to heaven. It also integrates clinical insights from Jeff Quan, LPC-S, who draws on his trauma therapy experience to introduce the Power/Control Cycle—a framework for understanding how survivors can reclaim personal agency in the present. Judy’s own recovery chapters guide readers through establishing healthy, God-given boundaries as a pathway from survival to thriving.

Challenging the notion that faith and feminism are opposed, The Christian Feminist presents a reasoned case for gender equality, firmly rooted in the life of Jesus. Quan highlights the better role chosen by Mary, the sister of Lazarus, whom Jesus praised for seeking spiritual teaching over traditional domestic duties. By showcasing biblical leaders such as the judge Deborah and Lydia—a seller of purple and a successful businesswoman who supported the early church and brought her household to faith in Christ—the work calls for a return to the simple gospel, stripped of the traditions of men that have been used to subordinate women.

Quan asserts that true Christianity is based on love and mutual respect, rather than human power struggles or the jockeying for superior positions. She maintains that feminism is not about the hatred of men, but about honoring the equal but different values of all individuals. Her vision promotes a home and church organized around mutual submission, where no class of individuals is endowed with privileged status based solely on anatomy. “There is neither male nor female . . . for you are all one in Christ” (Gal. 3:28, NIV).

Attendees of the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair are invited to visit the Explora Books exhibit to explore these transformative works. Surviving Religious Abuse and The Christian Feminist are available on Amazon.
