Men around the world are making a simple yet powerful statement in an attempt to end violence against children.

For the month of October, Australian-based nonprofit YGAP is encouraging men to take part in its social impact campaign, Polished Man, by painting one fingernail to raise awareness and funds to support the one in five children who suffer physical and/or sexual violence before the age of 18.

In its third year, the campaign is receiving support from noteworthy names like actors Chris Hemsworth and Tyler Blackburn, photographer David Higgs and Olympic gold medalist Michael Klim, all of whom have broken through the stereotypical concept of "manliness" by showing off their powerful "man-icures."

  You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention.
  But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.
