Berkshire, UK — July 2025 – The Kennet Crayfish Company is proud to announce the start of the new crayfish season and the return of its acclaimed Kennet Crayfish Gin, now in production with freshly macerated and distilled wild crayfish claws. Since its launch in January 2025, this innovative small-batch spirit has already earned international recognition, winning a Silver Medal at the World Gin Awards 2025 and a Bronze Medal at the prestigious International Wine & Spirit Competition (IWSC).
 
Crayfish are seasonal, with the harvesting season beginning in late May and continuing through to late autumn. The claws, rich in natural oils, are a unique addition to the gin’s botanical blend — alongside lemon, dill, and watercress — resulting in a smooth, citrus-forward craft gin with herbaceous complexity.
 
“Answering the obvious first question — no, there’s nothing fishy about the flavour,” says Carolyn Bennett, CMO of the Kennet Crayfish Company. “The oil from the claws acts as a botanical, softening the alcohol and enhancing the flavour of the other botanicals. The result is a premium gin that’s fresh, sweet, and complex — perfect as a sipping gin, in a classic G&T, or in a standout Negroni.”
 
The wild crayfish used in the gin are Signal Crayfish, an invasive, non-native species that pose a serious threat to the UK's river ecosystems. Trapping them is licensed and environmentally beneficial, helping to protect rivers like the River Kennet, a rare chalk stream habitat of ecological importance.
 
“Wild crayfish that have been caught in nutrient-rich waters, processed humanely, and never frozen, have an exceptional flavour and texture valued by top chefs and food lovers,” says Andrew Leech, Managing Director and crayfish expert. “Now, with our second season under the new bio-secure regulations, we’re thrilled to see our crayfish not only celebrated on plates — in restaurants, wedding menus, and home cooking — but also now raising eyebrows and glasses with our award-winning gin.”
 
The Kennet Crayfish Company also supplies wild crayfish for culinary use, available both par-cooked and fully cooked, ready to elevate salads, seafood pastas, barbecues, and fine dining menus across the country.

Scientists have achieved a stunning breakthrough, developing a revolutionary theory that finally bridges the gap between Quantum Physics and Einstein’s General Relativity—two cornerstone theories of modern physics previously considered irreconcilable. The thrilling new research, rigorously peer reviewed and published in the prestigious Global Journal of Engineering Sciences, proposes an unprecedented unified equation derived from Riemannian geometry and Planck-scale formalism.

This extraordinary new theory suggests our universe consists of interwoven "pixels" of space and time at the Planck scale—the smallest measurable unit—forming a tapestry that elegantly explains phenomena previously thought impossible. Recent observations by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which spotted surprisingly ancient galaxies only 300 million years after the Big Bang, find natural explanation within this novel framework.

Even more exciting, the theory proposes that the universe can be modeled as harmonic oscillators intricately entangled with Einstein's lambda curvature. This revolutionary idea could redefine how we understand energy transfers, cosmic entanglements, and even solve the infamous black hole singularity paradox by demonstrating how singularities are naturally avoided through quantum-level entanglements.

Moreover, this transformative work provides compelling new evidence supporting the groundbreaking ER=EPR conjecture, suggesting Einstein-Rosen bridges (wormholes) and quantum entanglement are fundamentally equivalent. The researchers even successfully predicted the gravitational wave background, matching observations from the NANOGrav collaboration, further validating their approach.

Significantly, this fully revised and meticulously corrected version represents a major advancement over an earlier edition published by Elsevier, with comprehensive refinements ensuring both theoretical consistency and experimental accuracy.

* PDF version: [https://irispublishers.com/gjes/pdf/GJES.MS.ID.000781.pdf]

This groundbreaking research promises to radically reshape our understanding of the universe, unlocking new realms of physics and astronomy that were once beyond imagination.

Los Angeles, CA – – The Latigo Group, a leading Los Angeles-based real estate development firm, is proud to announce it has secured a $54.7 million preferred equity investment from Affinius Capital for the development of Hillcrest Apartments, a premier multifamily project in Thousand Oaks, California. This significant financial milestone, coupled with a senior loan from Bank OZK and financing arranged by JLL’s Bercut Smith, marks a major step forward for the project, which is set to redefine luxury living in a supply-constrained market.

Under the leadership of Co-Founder Scott Whittaker, The Latigo Group acquired the 8-acre property at 2150 West Hillcrest Drive from Amgen in 2022 for $25.5 million. The development will transform an underutilized office complex into a state-of-the-art, four-story Class A multifamily property featuring 333 luxury residential units and 6,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The project is scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2028.

“Securing this investment from Affinius Capital is a testament to the strength of our vision and the quality of our developments,” said Scott Whittaker, Co-Founder of The Latigo Group. “Hillcrest Apartments will address the critical need for high-quality housing in Thousand Oaks, offering residents unparalleled amenities and modern living spaces. We are thrilled to partner with Affinius Capital and Bank OZK to bring this project to life.”

Hillcrest Apartments will feature one-, two-, and three-bedroom units averaging 948 square feet, each equipped with balconies, in-unit washers and dryers, upscale cabinetry, quartz countertops, designer lighting, and smart home technology. The development will also offer a rooftop terrace, swimming pool, fitness center, coworking spaces, wellness center, and a multi-sport simulator, creating a vibrant community for residents.

Mario Morales, Executive Director at Affinius Capital, praised the collaboration, stating, “Hillcrest Apartments will help fill the need for high-quality multifamily properties in a historically supply-constrained market. We are dedicated to beginning our partnership with Latigo, who builds exceptionally high-quality product, and look forward to benefiting from their local expertise in the Thousand Oaks market.”

This project marks The Latigo Group’s second multifamily development in Thousand Oaks, following the successful completion of Santal Thousand Oaks in 2023, a 142-unit mixed-use residential property that was only the second of its kind in the city in over 60 years.
