👕 Brazil's Cup rivals and world powers unveil kits; have a look

Two months remain until the 2026 World Cup, and the national teams keep unveiling their kits for the tournament. In this week’s launch roundup, OneFootball brings you the shirts of Morocco, Haiti and Scotland - Brazil’s opponents at the World Cup - as well as other favorites for the tournament. Before we get into the World Cup “business,” we should mention that Coritiba have unveiled their new home shirt for the season. The traditional white shirt, with two horizontal green stripes and a centered crest, also features green on the shoulders and sleeves. See details here ! Photos: Coritiba/Disclosure 🥰 World Cup vibes Morocco Brazil begin their quest for a dream sixth world title on June 13, when they face Morocco. And the African side have unveiled both their home and away kits, in partnership with Puma. Photos: Puma/Disclosure Haiti Haiti, meanwhile, are Brazil’s second opponent in Group C of the 2026 World Cup, with the match taking place on June 19. The Central American team unveiled its kits for the tournament featuring the colors of its flag - blue, white and red. Photos: Saeta/Disclosure Scotland Finally, on June 24, Brazil will wrap up their group-stage campaign at the World Cup against Scotland. The European side, who have not appeared in the tournament since 1998, unveiled their away kit for the World Cup. The new away shirt features “scarlet red” as the dominant color, with thin vertical purple stripes. The V-neck collar is purple and white. Adidas’ traditional three stripes appear in white on the shoulders. To complete the kit, purple shorts and socks. Photos: Adidas/Disclosure 👕 The favorites’ kits Argentina Some of the world’s biggest powers, among the main contenders to lift the trophy, have also unveiled their kits for the World Cup. Defending champions Argentina took a bold approach with their away shirt. Black has “taken over” the dominant role that used to belong to dark blue. Almost “psychedelic” designs are printed on the front and back in different shades of blue. Photo: Adidas/Disclosure France Champions in 2018 and runners-up in 2022, France are once again expected to challenge for the trophy. While the home shirt is more “modern,” with different shades of black and blue giving it a sense of “speed,” the away one is simpler. A very light green pays tribute to the Statue of Liberty - a gift from France to the United States. Photos: Nike/Disclosure Spain Led by Lamine Yamal, Spain are one of the favorites and want to become world champions again - something they have achieved only once, in 2010. The European side also unveiled their away kit for the 2026 World Cup. The piece is inspired by Spain’s literary tradition and, for that reason, the shirt comes in a cream tone with a graphic pattern, found in classic manuscripts, running throughout the kit. The red and yellow colors, a trademark of the Spanish national team, appear on the collar and sleeves. Photos: Adidas/Disclosure Germany Four-time champions Germany could match Brazil’s five world titles at the 2026 World Cup. The Europeans unveiled their away kit, with navy blue as the dominant color. On the V-neck collar and sleeves, a mix of turquoise and white. Photos: Adidas/Disclosure England England are also world champions and head into the 2026 World Cup as strong contenders, looking to end a 60-year drought. The European side unveiled both home and away kits for the tournament. England’s home shirt has white as the dominant color, but elements such as lions and stars embossed into the fabric reference English football culture. The sides feature curved red panels, as well as a collar and sleeves in navy blue mixed with white and red. The away kit, meanwhile, has red as the dominant color, with a navy-blue collar and sleeves featuring white and red. Photos: Nike/Disclosure Portugal Still with Cristiano Ronaldo, but with a strong squad that goes well beyond CR7, Portugal are among the favorites for the 2026 World Cup and want to become world champions for the first time. Inspired by the Atlantic Ocean and Portuguese navigation, the European side’s home shirt is red, with “wave” patterns in the fabric. The collar is green, as are the sleeves. Portugal’s away shirt, meanwhile, has a white base with aqua green also as a dominant color. Photos: Puma/Disclosure 😅 Wait, there’s more Uruguay Despite being two-time world champions, Uruguay are not among the favorites for the 2026 World Cup. But La Celeste, who promise to bring plenty of grit and passion to the tournament, have unveiled their home and away kits. Uruguay’s home shirt is based on the iconic sky blue, with navy-blue details in the lines running from the shoulders down the sides. The away shirt, nicknamed “Black Panther,” is meant to embody Uruguay’s fighting spirit. The piece has dark blue as its base, but with a “wings” shape stretching across the chest in various shades of blue. Photos: Nike/Disclosure Mexico Alongside the United States and Canada, Mexico is one of the hosts of the 2026 World Cup. The Mexicans unveiled their away kit for the tournament. White is the dominant color of the shirt, with red and green completing the flag colors appearing on the collar and sleeves. Photos: Adidas/Disclosure Finally, four African national teams unveiled their kits: Ghana, Ivory Coast and Egypt released both home and away versions, while South Africa released only the away kit.

HarperCollins is forging ahead with AI-assisted dramas based on books. Some authors have concerns

HarperCollins Publishers and AI -powered animation studio Toonstar have announced a multi-year partnership to co-produce original YouTube series based on HarperCollins titles. It marks the second announcement this week from the book publishing giant regarding a partnership with an AI-centered company. On Monday, HarperCollins division Harlequin said it entered a multi-year agreement to co-produce 40 animated micro-dramas with AI entertainment company Dashverse. Inspired by Harlequin Romance titles, the collaboration launches in April, beginning with an adaptation of A Fairy-Tail Ending by Catherine Mann. The deals highlight how book publishers are turning to AI as a way to explore new modes of storytelling, but they are also generating backlash from those who are not thrilled about the effort. Toonstar’s partnership role For the Toonstar partnership, the first series planned is Friendship List , based on the young adult series of the same name written by author Lisa Greenwald. This series will be accompanied by a graphic novel from HarperAlley, HarperCollins’s graphic novel imprint for kids and teens, based on the animation. “Toonstar’s proven ability to translate beloved stories into engaging animation, while keeping artists at the center of the process, makes them the ideal partner to bring Friendship List and other popular titles to new audiences in formats today’s families love,” said Liate Stehlik, CEO and publisher for U.S. Trade at HarpersCollins, in a statement. HarperCollins said the process will be creator-led, but has not addressed how authors will be involved or if they’ll receive royalties, reports Publishers Weekly . “Our artist-centered approach ensures these beloved characters and stories stay true to the author’s vision, while our Ink & Pixel production technology enables fast, high-quality production at scale which unlocks the ability to meet audiences where and when they enjoy content today,” John Attanasio, CEO of Toonstar, said in a statement. The animation studio was founded in 2015 by Attanasio and COO Luisa Huang. Their team consists of “creators, builders and technologists hailing from” companies such as Disney, Warner Bros., and Dreamworks. Pushback from authors Some authors have been vocally critical of the AI partnerships. In response to the Harlequin and Dashverse partnership, author Sarah MacLean, a self-described “AI hater,” shared on Threads , “If you write for Harlequin, today is the day to send an email telling them you’re against the use of generative AI in all forms, and urge the company to pull out of the deal with Dashverse. Send the email to your editor and ask them to forward it up the chain.” Writer Sylvia Day also shared her disappointment about the Toonstar partnership. In community Book Threads with 408,000 members, she said, “And now HarperCollins. Really sh!tty if authors aren’t given the option to opt out.” HarperCollins Publishers did not respond to requests for comment. AI collaboration trend across industries HarperCollins’s partnerships point to a larger trend across creative industries as companies look to explore different ways to tell stories using AI. A mix of feedback—negative and positive—from actors, writers, unions, and fans has emerged as a result of collaborations with AI companies in the world of entertainment. Lionsgate’s deal with AI company Runway, inked in 2024 , allowed Runway to train its video generation model on the studio’s movies and TV shows. The deal was met with backlash , as artists and filmmakers feared being replaced by automation. Protections for actors against AI is a priority for labor union SAG-AFTRA and was at the forefront of the writers’ and actors’ strikes beginning in 2023. More recently in March, Netflix acquired InterPositive, a filmmaking technology company founded by actor Ben Affleck that develops AI-powered tools built by and for filmmakers. Affleck has said InterPositive does not provide video generation tools or rely on text-to-video prompts, but instead helps with the post-production process. He expressed a desire to keep humans at the forefront of the creative process; Affleck is a signatory to the Creators Coalition on AI , an organization creating a hub for cross-industry discussions about generative AI’s impact on the entertainment industry. InterPositive works by using footage from an existing production to build an AI model. The tools are intended to work alongside storytellers and not replace the work of writers, directors, actors, and crews, Netflix executives said in a press release. Netflix and Affleck received mixed feedback on the acquisition. In a TikTok video , creator Daniel Westheimer, a therapist who makes content about movies and mental health, said, “If I’m passionate about my fear about replacing artists in front of the camera, I should equally be as passionate about my fear around replacing artists behind the camera.” In contrast, Kimberly A. Owczarski, an associate professor at Texas Christian University who studies media franchises, told NPR that Affleck promotes a responsible use of AI in filmmaking.

Love It Or Hate It: Studded Clogs Are So Back

COPENHAGEN, DENMARK – AUGUST 7: a guest (left) is seen wearing a striped white button-down shirt, worn underneath an oversized light blue shirt; a colorful knit top underneath the shirt; high-waisted, knee-length wide denim shorts; white heeled sandals with a colorful monogram from Louis Vuitton; a bright yellow leather handbag with silver hardware, black-red details and violet shoulder straps; large gold hoop earrings; her blonde hair is worn loose, parted in the middle; a guest (right) is seen wearing a cropped brown leather jacket, layered over a pink graphic t-shirt; a white slip-style skirt with lace trim; brown leather clogs with metallic studs; the Graduate Jokes, classic brown monogram handbag with gold hardware from Louis Vuitton x Richard Prince; her blonde hair is worn loose with a middle part during the Filippa K show during Copenhagen Fashion Week day four on August 7, 2025 in Copenhagen, Denmark. (Photo by Moritz Scholz/Getty Images) I’ll admit it. There was once a time when I felt like every special outfit had to be paired with a stiletto. Thankfully, the fashion cycle has entered an era where teetering on stilettos is out. I’m finally fully embracing the functional-meets-sexy era and doing so in — dare I say it — clogs. Yes, the once orthopedic-recommended shoe is at the top of my shopping list. Of course, Chloé’s last couple of shows with Chemena Kamali at the helm certainly piqued my interest, making me fall in love with the delicious combination of frilly dresses paired with chunky shoes. But it was Louise Trotter’s sculptural take that made me finally hit add to cart. And it’s not just a runway moment. The street style scene is flooded with the chunky-sole shoe. Zendaya was recently spotted out and about with Tom Holland wearing slip-on clogs. Anne Hathaway also was photographed by paparazzi in a studded pair — the true star of the clog comeback. NEW YORK, NEW YORK – SEPTEMBER 15: A guest is seen wearing a brown Coach jacket, black top, white shorts, black shoes and black sunglasses outside the Coach show during womenswear NYFW Spring 2026 on September 15, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Daniel Zuchnik/Getty Images) We can’t talk clogs without mentioning the OGs, Dr. Scholl’s. Not only have they been at it since 1924, they continue to find ways to make the click-clack wooden shoes feel more relevant than ever, most recently with a limited-edition collaboration with Wrangler. Between the dirt-kicking heritage of Wrangler and the orthopedic-chic legacy of Dr. Scholl’s, the latest crop of clogs feel both utilitarian and wildly cool. While the collection features the iconic open-toe Original Sandal in new colorways (including a striking red and a speckled, cow-print motif), the standout is the studded perforated suede and leather designs. I like to think of the hardware-adorned clogs as shoe candy, especially since they instantly dress up a simple outfit like a jeans -and-T-shirt combo. And what’s even better? Most designs offer the height and formality of a heel with the stability of a wedge or chunky kitten heel. That’s a win-win for all of spring and summer outfits. Like what you see?

Business benefits of a customer self-service strategy

<p data-end="3974" data-start="3731">Customer self-service is no longer just a cost-cutting tactic.

The goal is to support the highest-value customer tasks with the fewest dead ends, not to launch every possible channel. </li> <li><strong>Make sure the self-service channel speaks the customer's language. </strong>Whatever problem resolution tools organizations put in place, their use must be clear to be effective. A chatbot or IVR system that uses complicated technical terminology won't engage the customer.</li> <li><strong>Build a clean handoff from self-service to live support</strong>. Self-service should reduce friction, not trap customers in dead ends. When a customer needs a person, the channel should pass along context so they do not have to restart the interaction.</li> <li><strong>Include other customers in self-service. </strong>Help doesn't have to come from business staff, chatbots or a knowledge base. Often, the best person to help a customer through a problem is another customer who went through something similar. People often browse forums, user groups and niche communities for answers, so the organization could implement a resource for such customer interactions. This approach is cheap and effective and has few barriers to user adoption, given its familiarity. Organizations can add open source or low-cost forum software to their websites or deploy it separately.</li> <li><strong>Track the self-service system's progress and success. </strong>Customer service teams must measure the effectiveness of any process with customer interactions -- especially with self-service, which relies on customer feedback. Feedback requires proper mapping between the self-service process and customer loyalty, which depend on measures such as <a href="https://www.techtarget.com/searchcustomerexperience/definition/customer-effort-score-CES">customer effort score</a> and <a href="https://www.techtarget.com/searchcustomerexperience/definition/Net-Promoter-Score-NPS">net promoter score</a>.

Customers can log in to a portal and, in some cases, use two-factor authentication to gain access. Additionally, a self-service strategy should let customers interact with an organization at a convenient time for them and in a user-friendly manner. Customers don't need to worry about when a call center is open, as self-service is always available.<br><br>Organizations should also make self-service content easy to find both inside the help experience and through external search.

Leaders should track whether customers can resolve issues on their own, where they abandon the journey, when they escalate to live support and how much effort the experience requires. Those signals show whether self-service is actually improving CX or simply pushing customers into another channel.</p> </div> </div> </section> <section class="section main-article-chapter" data-menu-title="The importance of analysis"> <h2 class="section-title"><i class="icon" data-icon="1"></i>The importance of analysis</h2> <p data-end="8321" data-start="7996">Self-service only works when leaders measure both efficiency and experience.

[Catholic Caucus Devotional] My Catholic Life! Catholic Daily Reflections: Behold, Your Mother - Friday, April 3, 2026

Daily Readings from the USCCBStanding by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.

Has King Charles Become a Muslim? It Seemed a Ridiculous Rumor, But...

I have almost laughed off the rumors that King Charles III had secretly converted to Islam. It seemed so ridiculous, based on the mysterious tolerance that the British government has had toward the increasing radicalization of Islamists in Great Britain. Muslims are closing down streets to perform mass prayers, seemingly as an expression of dominance. The tolerance for rape gangs. I have covered so many of these issues that I won't repeat myself here. Rudy Giuliani flat-out stated that Charles had converted on Piers Morgan's show, but that seemed absurd. The king is literally the Supreme Governor of the Church...
