This is my hg jelly sandwich tc. I have a nail matrix that is on the weak side (didn't grow without breaking and peeling without Duri Rejuvacote). This tc dries in 10 minutes and fully cures within 2 hours, but goes on pretty thin. I found that if I use it alone some nails would crack and chip, even considering a 5-7 layer polish job. So I'm using this between layers to dry and finishing with Essence The Gel TC.
You do also have to add thinner very frequently once you've hit the halfway mark in the bottle, or it just gets gloopy and bubbly. Once the thinner mixes in it's as good as new.

I have been using this for a few weeks. Very pleased so far with the performance. I find you need to apply a slightly thick coat to prevent it streaking your polish. It really does dry quickly and your nails are dry to touch in a minute or so. I usually wait a few minutes before doing anything, as my nails are prone to smudging, always have been. This is a glossy and shiny TC and wears well. I like to reapply this every other day or so to maintain a high gloss finish and I like multiple layers as I like polish to look thick.
My polish does not chip, (possibly because I reapply this TC though) and I take it all off usually weekly when I redo my polish.
Brush is a nice size.. although it could be a little bigger, but it certainly is fine as is.

My nails are very picky with polishes and top coats! I applied two layers of polish and topped it off with this top coat and it dried to the touch in about 10-15 minutes but in just two short days, my polish began to crack and peel off.
This top coat does not dry multiple layers of polish and still makes the polish sticky. Does not fully dry until a full good 20 minutes, but even after that the polish is still sticky and prone to completely smudge off.

This works well in minimizing chipping. However, it becomes very thick within a few months of usage. Once it gets to that stage, it tends to trap air bubbles in it when it is applied - not very pretty or effective. This is the second bottle that I've had to throw away after a few months.

I would definitely buy this again. I was looking for a simple, cheapish quick dry topcoat and decided to get this. I absolutely love it. Usually my nails could take up to 25 minutes to totally dry, depending but with this, it takes *maybe* 5 minutes. It does "dry" within seconds but you will get dents if you try doing too much. I didn't have any issues with chipping. I cap all my layers and that seems to help A LOT (I notice when I don't cap, it chips quicky). I change polish frequently so I only need my polish to last 2-4 days without chipping anyway. I also try to keep my hands from being wet or using my nails as tools to prevent chipping. It's not a miracle product, but it works for me and I'm happy with its overall performance for the price.

Bought this after serious disappointment from Seche Vite (it became unusable halfway through the bottle). I've only used this once but I already like it better than Seche Vite. I live in a very humid area and my nails will not dry completely unless I use a quick dry top coat. My nails were completely dry in about 10 minutes. I love the formula. It's very thin and easy to work with and it doesn't shrink on the sides of my nails like Seche Vite does. My polish lasted about 4 days before chipping occurred, but I'm a housekeeper so that's a long time for me. Overall very impressed and will continue to buy this unless I find something better. Also anxious to see if it will get all goopy and gross halfway through like Seche Vite did.

Yes, yes YES! Bought this at target on sale for $3 after reading the rave reviews. I used to use the OPI top coat but it didn't even get me through the first day of my manis. I used this atop my essie "where's my chauffeur?" and its been FOUR days and it still looks like a fresh mani. It's been through four days of washing dishes, cleaning house, and working (my hands go through a lot at work). Not a single chip, not even fading on the tops or edges!

This product has changed my life... dramatic I know but seriously it's perfection.
Ive painted my nails a couple of hours before bed and no creases!! when I wake up in the morning and to me that's really the ultimate dry test.
It's great at being chip resistant and I have a hands on job where by the end of one day I would have chips a plenty and now I either have none or one tiny chip.
Im in love 😍

This is the definition of a perfect product!!! For a top coat, criteria are:
- Protection: check! 4-5 days for me, because I use my hands a lot. Regular polish lasts 2.5 days. Manicure lasts 5 days. So this polish for 4-5 days? Oh yeah, that's really good.
- Finish: beautiful! It adds extra gloss and shine to even the dullest colours.
- The "insta-dri" claim: YES! unbelievable!! After painting my last finger, my first hand is already all dried. Yup!!! But by "dry" it means you can start using your hands on simple things like cooking, typing, picking things up, and even washing dishes (done it!). But washing your hair, unbuttoning tight jeans, and putting together furniture (anything that repeatedly scratches your nails), you'll have to wait a few more hours. I'm saying this because I don't want you saving the world after this top coat. It's not THAT invincible, but you can definitely do a lot of everyday things right away!! including sleeping.
I apply only one layer of this top coat. It's thick and gel-like. Very gunky if you apply too much. It can get messy if you have a lot of cat hair flying in the air. This bottle has lasted me 3 years. It's amazing, I love it.

Literally, the best on the go nail product ever. The packaging has changed, but the formula is still amazing. It's super cheap, and works wonders. My nails last about 5-7 days with this, and considering I'm rough with my nails that says a lot. I normally chip my nails within two days! The finish is BEAUTIFUL. It's so glossy and it almost looks like gel. I always get asked if I'm wearing shellac. It dries ridiculously fast, I just put my nail polish on and I don't even have patience for it to dry, so I wait about 5 minutes and put the top coat and within minutes my nails are ready! Such an amazing product.

We stayed in a 4* Windsor Hotel, located in the center of Funchal. That was the only advantage about the hotel :) the hotel is nothing like 4*, maybe it was 15 years ago, but certainly not today. Yes, i did check reviews and photos before booking, but on arrival it is nothing like in a photo. However, that did not spoil our holiday. As long as I have a bed to sleep, toilet and shower, I am happy. The breakfast was included, but we only tried it once. There are many better places to have your breakfast for few Euro.

Holiday to Madeira was a very spontanious choise. After spending a week doing research about Turkey, we decided to go to Madeira! lol

We visited coastal villages along the south coast, and whilst they were pretty, the beaches were pretty ******. Very little sand, just black rocks ranging is size from golf balls to big Boulders. Definitely makes sunbathing interesting. Overall a fairly impressive destination, easy to see why they have over 1 million visitors a year, most from Great ...

Q & A with Fernando Alonso
|By Jonathan Noble
|Sunday, November 1st 2009, 12:34 GMT
Fernando Alonso looks unlikely to leave Renault on a high given the team's lack of pace throughout the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend.
After qualifying he spoke to reporters about his feelings as he prepared to race a Renault for the last time, and his thoughts about future team Ferrari's current situation.
Q. You said this weekend that you felt the Renault had slipped behind Toro Rosso and Force India. Were your qualifying struggles what you expected?
Fernando Alonso: Yes. We spent all the qualifying like today - a difficult qualifying - but somehow we managed in the last three or four grands prix to get through Q1. Somehow, as well, we went into Q3 for a couple of times in the last few races. I think that was because the circuits were a little bit special in Suzuka qualifying was almost the first dry laps all weekend. In Brazil, we know the conditions were extremely well and we were lucky on that part to be in Q3. Here, with a normal qualifying with no big surprises and a new circuit for everybody, we were out in Q1 so more or less what we expected.
Q. It would have been nice though, in your last grand prix for Renault, to have done something better, wouldn't it?
FA: Yeah for sure. It will be nice to win a race when you say bye bye to the team. But this is obviously a dream not reality. We know where we are and we know where we are struggling. We are not competitive for the last part of the championship. I think Romain and me, we are doing our maximum always. The team knows I did 100 per cent in the last seven years with them, so it doesn't change too much what you do in the last race.
Q. Now you have had your last qualifying with Renault, is it getting emotional from your side?
FA: Yes. Obviously the closer you are to the race, and to the chequered flag, there are more and more feelings, and more emotional moments. For sure, on Saturday, when I put the overalls on, the helmet on, closed the visor and went into qualifying it was the last qualifying and you know that. You go to the track knowing that and in the race, on the grid, or doing the interviews there, you are alone in the car when the mechanics go and you start the formation lap, I will know again that it is the last formation lap with them. It is different, but at the same time it is a nice feeling as well because I am happy, I am relaxed and I am enjoying this last race, whatever the result is.
Q. McLaren and Ferrari both had a bad start to season, but McLaren is now back on top and Ferrari did not catch up. Are you worried about next season?
FA: No. Not at all. I think both started at the back McLaren started even worse than Ferrari but they did a very good job and now they have maybe the best car. Here, they were very dominant all weekend and in Brazil also, starting near the back, Hamilton finished on the podium. Really, it is a very quick car.
But they [McLaren and Ferrari] went with different philosophies. McLaren were pushing with some developments this year, and Ferrari did not. So next year it will be a completely new start for everybody starting from zero. We have to wait and see which one of the two will have a better car next year.
It does not matter too much what you do in the last races. We saw with Renault last year, I finished second in Brazil and you expect then that Renault will be very strong the following year. But we did not get the maximum this year. So every year, every first year of the championship, is a complete unknown for everybody.
Q. When will you start to become involved in developments?
FA: Not much. Unfortunately we are not engineers, we are not designers, we are drivers. So, my input, and my way to work will be when I try the car. Without driving the car it is very difficult to make any suggestions or any work. Until February, unfortunately, my input to the team and effort will be very limited. I will try to understand how the team works, and I will try also to give my maximum and prepare the winter testing in a perfect way, but much more than that will be difficult without being behind the wheel.
Q. Why do you think the Renault was such a bad car this year?
FA: I think aerodynamics are the key of this championship. It has been the key for the last years in F1. This year, with the new rules, even more. For sure, the philosophy of our car was unfortunately not good enough. Also the developments, because we cannot forget that at some races we were quite competitive. There was one period of the championship where we put some new things on the car and we were the third fastest car on the grid.
But then, as Ferrari did as well, we decided to stop the development of the car and think more to 2010, and in that case you are paying a little bit for that. Now arriving at the last race, with the same car we had for the last five months, normally you are at the back.
Q. You said earlier that Renault and Ferrari stopped development earlier, while other kept developing. Is there not enough to learn by keeping developing for next year?
FA: Well, you can always learn things especially next year there is not a big regulation change as we saw last year. More or less it is the same in terms of aerodynamics, but with the narrow front tyre next year, with the big fuel tanks, some things on the cars will have to change. We will have to prepare the car in a different way with fuel loads for starting the race.
Until the first race next year we will not know, but I am happy that my future team stopped earlier because I am sure there will be some benefit. Plus Renault stopped earlier, I fully understand their decision and hopefully they can have a good car next year as well.

At this time I began to write, from vanity, greed, and pride. In my writings I did exactly as in life. In order to possess the glory and the wealth for whose sake I wrote, it was necessary to conceal the good, and to display the bad. And so I did.
Tolstoy's autobiographical essay is a dissection of his soul, a study of his life's movement away from the religious certainties of youth, and a vital piece of reading which contextualizes the great works he is best known for. Marking the point at which his life moved from the worldly to the spiritual, Tolstoy's philosophical reassessment of the Orthodox faith is a work that holds vital spiritual and intellectual importance to this very day.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL)--The puppy badly burned in a house fire is now being treated at a hospital in Gainesville.
Family members say nine month old Onyx is at the University of Florida's Small Animal Hospital.
Northwood Animal Hospital's Dr. Kevin Brumfield and his wife took the puppy there Sunday for treatment on his kidneys and other medical conditions.
Sierra Plair says Onyx alerted her and her family to a fire Thursday morning at her home on Lake Avenue.
They escaped but veterinarians tell us Onyx received burns on at least 30 percent of his body. The family says they expect it will take some time for onyx to recover but they're hopeful he'll come home soon.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL)-- This weekend, the family received another scare from their canine hero. Sierra Plair says Onyx made a turn for the worse Friday night when he stopped eating his food. The veterinarians at the Northwood Animal Hospital were able to insert a feeding tube inside the 9-month-old pit bull, but now the family's biggest concern are the infections Onyx may get from his burns.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) -- A 9-month-old pitbull named "Onyx" is being credited with helping to save his family from a house fire.
"Onyx" is still facing several weeks of treatment after becoming badly burned during the fire that investigators say may have been intentionally set.
"If we wouldn't heard him we wouldn't have gotten up...we would've been dead or in the hospital," said Sierra Plair.
Lt. Mike Bellamy with Tallahassee Fire Department says crews were called out around 2:00 a.m. September 26 to a house fire on the 1500 block of Lake Avenue. Crews were able to quick put out a fire that was in the back of the house and inside the back porch.
The family managed to escape the fire unharmed thanks to the barking of "Onyx".
Plair's fiance, Trevor Myers, says that's when he rushed outside. He says he found Onyx on fire and doused him with water. Plair meanwhile rushed upstairs to rescue her children and get them outside of the house.
Onyx, however, was severely burned in the process.
Unable to afford veterinary care, the family took Onyx to the Tallahassee-Leon County Animal Service Center where they thought they would have to surrender him over to the shelter. According to a release from Tallahassee Fire Department, when staff at the ASC realized that Onyx had saved the family's life, they worked quickly to get him the care he needed.
"Our goal is to help pets stay in their homes with their families," said Dr. Rachel Barton, Animal Services Veterinarian. "Given the traumatic event this family had just experienced, we knew we needed to do whatever we could to help them keep Onyx at home. They had already been through so much, the last thing we wanted them to do was lose their dog as well."
With the help of Northwood Animal Hospital and the Tallahassee Animal Shelter Foundation, Onyx is being treated for severe burns. The family is needing help to pay for Onyx's medical bills. You can contribute through Northwood Animal Hospital's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/northwoodanimalhospital
Onyx will require several more weeks of treatment with antibiotics and pain medications to help the burns heal properly.
Investigators say they believe the fire may be the work of an arsonist.
"Honestly, the person who did this to my home don't want to know how I feel because I feel like someone tried to kill me and my family," Plair said. "They harmed my dog."
The cause of the fire remains under investigation. Anyone with information is urged to call the Florida State Fire Marshal's Arson Tip Hotline at 1-877-662-7766.

VALENCIA, Spain (AP) - Stephane Mbia scored in the fourth minute of stoppage time for Sevilla to make the Europa League final despite a 3-1 loss at Valencia on Thursday.
Valencia looked set to play in the May 14 final in Turin until Mbia's dramatic header to secure Sevilla's place on away goals, after the two-leg semifinal ended 3-3.
Sevilla, which plays for the trophy for the first time since winning a second straight title in 2007, faces Benfica after last year's finalist drew 0-0 at Juventus to keep this year's final host out by advancing 2-1 overall.
"It was very hard, they played so well and it was so hard to win here. But we knew just one goal," a stunned Mbia told Cuatro TV as he was overcome with emotion like players from both teams after the final whistle. "Unbelievable."
Valencia started its rally in the 14th when Sofiane Feghouli's left-footed curler took a touch to get past goalkeeper Beto, who pushed Jonas' powerful 26th-minute header off the underside of the bar, but it bounced back into goal off the Sevilla goalie.
Jeremy Mathieu jumped on a loose ball inside the area to rocket home Valencia's third goal into the roof of the net in the 69th as the hosts looked to complete a second successive comeback at its Mestalla Stadium after rallying from a 3-0 deficit to beat Basel 5-0 to come through the last round.
But Valencia was left shocked as Mbia rose to power home in the waning moments to deny Valencia a return to the final 10 years after it last won.
No team lasted as long as Sevilla in the competition after the Andalucian side started in the third qualifying round when Malaga and Rayo Vallecano were denied a place by UEFA for financial problems. Sevilla had finished below them in the Spanish standings.
"We had few opportunities but we had good ones," Sevilla coach Unai Emery said. "We harnessed the spirit of (Andres) Palop," the former Sevilla 'keeper whose own late-game heroics helped Sevilla win back-to-back titles in 2006 and '07 when the competition was known as the UEFA Cup.
Benfica denied Juventus the chance to play the final at its home stadium as the Portuguese champion gets another chance at the trophy one year after losing to Chelsea.
"The rival is the rival, what matters is the final," said Emery, who previously had coached Valencia. "It's a great team, it eliminated Juventus."

'Despicable Me 2' Becomes U.K.'s Top-Grossing Film of 2013
The animated adventure is now the highest-grossing film of the year, with $66.78 million after seven weeks in release -- despite sunny local weather.
LONDON – Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment's Despicable Me 2 has become the highest-grossing film of 2013 so far at the U.K. box office.
The claim to box-office fame comes despite the U.K. actually enjoying a sunny summer, the climate exhibitors fear most as it traditionally drives customers into gardens rather than movie houses in the territory.
'World War Z' Premiere: The Zombie Apocalypse Starts in London
Universal Pictures International (UPI), the studio's international releasing division, said that after seven weeks in release, Despicable Me 2 has grossed $66.78 million (£42.67 million) to take the title of the year's highest tally to date.
The comedy adventure sees the return of supervillain Gru (Steve Carell), his girls and the unpredictably hilarious minions.
The animated sequel dethroned Universal's own Les Miserables, which had garnered $63.84 million to previously hold the U.K.'s top spot for the year so far.
Directed by Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin and produced by Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri and Janet Healy, the movie's voice cast includes Carell, Kristen Wiig and Benjamin Bratt.
STORY: China Denies 'Despicable Me 2' Ban
Other voices included Miranda Cosgrove, Russell Brand, Steve Coogan, Ken Jeong, Elsie Fisher, Dana Gaier and Moises Arias.
Despicable Me 2's U.K. box-office success comes on the heels of the studio posting takings of more than $1.8 billion at the international box office, making it UPI's biggest year in history, passing the previous record set in 2012 when the studio grossed $1.794 for the year.
UPI's international success is fuelled by movies including Les Miserables ($293 million), Fast & Furious 6 ($547 million) and Despicable Me 2, alongside releases such as Oblivion ($197.1 million) and Mama ($75.9 million).
Despicable Me 2 is the highest-grossing animated film of the year worldwide, having grossed $435.2 million internationally and $781.2 million worldwide to date.
The film is the fourth-biggest animation release of all time in the U.K. behind Toy Story 3 ($115.5 million), Shrek 2 ($75.3 million) and Toy Story 2 ($69.3 million).

With some of the lowest gross domestic product (GDP) rates in the developed world, UK cities outside London must reinvent themselves as magnets for young wealth creators, in order to generate long terms economic growth, according to the new research by KPMG.
Drawing on extensive interviews and economic analysis, KPMG's Magnet Cities report outlines nine successful city reinvention programmes around the world; and identifies common principles that UK cities can adopt to encourage growth. The analysis suggests cities are like magnets – they either attract or repel - and it is difficult to flip a negative city magnet into a positive one, as many UK cities have found. Over the last ten years GDP across UK's ten largest cities (excluding London) grew by just one per cent, while the average GDP growth in the magnet cities was 2.8%.
Caroline Haynes, Public Sector Director at KPMG and author of the report says: "This research highlights the growing economic gulf between UK cities, and other non-capital cities in the developed world. If the ten UK cities had grown at the same rate as the magnet cities, this would have equated to an additional £35bn in national GDP, and a net addition of 750,000 jobs, creating greater economic balance across the country."
The research, conducted over a one year period, outlines the seven principles that the Magnet Cities case studies adopted to reinvent themselves. In addition to targeting specific groups of young people, the cities underwent continual physical renewal and established a clear and sharp, globally competitive city identity. Also many of the cities found ways to fund their reinvention programmes themselves and through partnerships with the private sector.
Caroline comments, "London will always dominant UK GDP, however now is the time for bold city thinking in the UK, to redress the balance of growth. The magnet cities selected for the report reinvented themselves to attract a targeted group of ambitious and energetic young people. As soon as the cities started to attract young wealth creators, the investment and jobs followed."
Kru Desai, Head of UK Local & Regional Government at KPMG says: "While everyone is agreed that greater local devolution is the direction we should be travelling to, it is not the only answer. The Magnet Cities research shows there is much UK cities have the power to do today - to up their game nationally and globally. The more UK cities can demonstrate they are learning to become self-sufficient today, the stronger the case for devolution tomorrow."

About the report
Note on methodology:
GDP source data from the OECD and local statistic offices was analysed over the 2000-2010 period except for the following cities where data was available for a shorter time period: Birmingham, Leeds, Manchester, Songdo, and Christchurch. GDP figures were converted from USD to GBP using the IMF average exchange rate for the period. Finally, GDP figures were converted into the equivalent number of UK jobs using ONS regional figures for GVA per job in 2010. It was assumed that 75% of the GDP increase would result in job increases, while remaining 25% would result in productivity increases due to agglomeration affects.

Of course no one actually needs Terminator or any movie for that matter. This is "need" in the artistic sense meaning that a work either does or doesn't need something to be complete.
I knew exactly what you meant by it, and it is that need I am disputing. Terminator didn't need T2 to be complete, it was a complete piece of work in it's own right, and T2 sure as hell didn't need T3 or T4. Surely each piece of work deserves to be judged on its own merit?
The "need" in the sense that you describe it will be defined by the film itself, not by other films. I've never understood this aversion people have to sequels or reboots, a good film is a good film, who cares what came before or after it.
So it goes.

Yes, and it's a bit irrelevant to the brand, slogan and product.
Hey I've got all these features on my iPhone.. No, actually, on all my computers. So, why make these features for the HP?
3 reasons: 1. Cost 2. Taste 3. User habbits... A huge amount of people do not even know what MAC OS looks like. And again almost all of them would like to stick with windows experience.
And besides, there are millions of people who are considering a new purchase and they would like to be sure that they have the same features you have.

A bunch of friends of ours gathered and did a quick road trip last night to Millbrook, Al to eat an early dinner. The restaurant opens at 4:30 p.m. so we arrived at 4:00 and began waiting in line. Believe me when I say it was well worth the wait.
Took my dad to dinner at catfish house for his birthday. His choice for dinner. First the server got the order wrong by bringing an item we didn't order. On top of that the item was to come with dinner but was immediately brought to the table. After dinner the bill came. Paid with cash and left a tip. Caught in the lobby by the server who said payment was wrong. Payment was right and cash...
Catfish House can be found at Cobbs Ford Rd 3011. The following is offered: Restaurants. The entry is present with us since Sep 9, 2010 and was last updated on Nov 14, 2013. In Montgomery there are 157 other Restaurants. An overview can be found here.
Catfish House serves American meals an emphasis on seafood. Expect the average entrée to cost roughly $8 to $12.

How soon?
Aug 17, 2000
How soon after infection would one begin to have symptoms? I had unprotected sex with a woman and the very next day I began having nausea and about a month later, I began having joint pains. Could this be caused by Hepatitis or is it some other HIV complication? I have been poz for 1 year.
Response from Dr. Dieterich
It is not possible to have symptoms 1 day after exposure. You may have been nauseated because of your unsafe sex. If you are worried about hepatitis, 4 weeks is possible to begin having symptoms. Get tested for hepatitis A, B and C. If you don't have antibodies, get vaccinated. And finally, for everyone's sake, practice safe sex! DTD

AIDS risk knowledge, attitudes and behavioral intentions among multiethnic adolescents
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to determine how much young adolescents know about AIDS and AIDS risk and to identify areas of confusion that might serve as important targets of educational intervention. A multiethnic (43% white, 33% black, 18% Latino) sample of 303 seventh-grade students (48% male) in 3 schools in the greater New York area completed questionnaires assessing knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intentions concerning AIDS and AIDS risk. Consistent with previous studies with older adolescents, the major finding in this study was that young adolescents had a high degree of knowledge concerning AIDS and AIDS risk. There were 2 areas of confusion concerning AIDS risk. Specifically, 31% of adolescents did not correctly identify "not having sex" as the most effective way of preventing AIDS, and 33% believed that AIDS could be spread through casual contact. Findings are discussed in terms of their implications for prevention.

ABSTRACT: Teenagers are a crucial target group for interventions concerning acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Experimenting with their burgeoning sexuality and increased ability to obtain drugs, they are prime candidates for AIDS prevention and education strategies. The intervention described in this paper is a 30-minute magic show, presented by Cyrus (or Iris) the Virus, a sinister but entertaining character portrayed by any health educator willing to spend a few hours learning the magic tricks. The tricks explain why sharing needles and choosing sexual partners based on appearance alone can result in AIDS. Cyrus also uses magic to communicate the ways that AIDS is not transmitted, how to refuse sex, and how to use condoms correctly. The show, as well as increasing the audience's knowledge about HIV, attempts to induce behavioral change by increasing participants' perceived self-efficacy--a predictor of healthful behavior. Still in its pilot phase, the show has been seen by 281 students ages 10-15 years. Viewers rate the show highly, and preliminary analysis suggests that perceived self-efficacy has been significantly improved.Public Health Reports 04/1994; 109(2):162-7. · 1.55 Impact Factor
Article: Mexican‐American and Anglo‐American Children's Responsiveness to a Theory‐Centered AIDS Education Program[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Third, fifth, and seventh graders, most of them Mexican-American, were exposed to an empirically based and culturally sensitive AIDS curriculum designed to replace their intuitive theories with a coherent, scientific account of the causal processes that lead from risk behavior to AIDS symptomatology. Compared to students in control classes, experimental students knew more about AIDS risk factors and AIDS generally, displayed more conceptual understanding of the causes of AIDS and flu, and were more willing to interact with people who have AIDS (although not less worried about AIDS) at posttest and typically at follow-up 10-11 months later. The findings point to the potential value of adopting an intuitive theories approach in assessing and modifying children's concepts of health and illness and suggest, contrary to Piagetian formulations, that even relatively young children can, with appropriate instruction, grasp scientific theories of disease.Child Development 05/1996; 67(2):253-66.

As America divides more and more into a class-stratified society, the idea of "gated communities" has spread into other areas of separation in which the rich get special benefits, the middle class is treated shabbily and lower-income people face outright disdain, Lawrence Davidson reports.
The World Still Splurges on War
Amid continued splurging on war – with the U.S. government still far-and-away the world's leader – there are a few hopeful signs as common citizens learn from the likes of Gandhi and become more suspicious of advocates for violent conflict, writes Lawrence S. Wittner.
The Money Behind the Gun Madness
Since the American Right succeeded in reframing the Framers' "well-regulated militia" context for the Second Amendment, gun madness – punctuated by frequent mass slaughters – has become the U.S. nightmare. But the real motivation is money, says Michael Winship.
Premature US Victory-Dancing on Ukraine
Exclusive: The post-coup election of a pro-Western politician as president of Ukraine – and the escalating slaughter of lightly armed anti-coup rebels in the east – have created a celebratory mood in Official Washington, but the victory dance may be premature, says ex-CIA analyst Ray McGovern.
The State Department's Ukraine Fiasco
Exclusive: The State Department's handling of the Ukraine crisis may go down as a textbook diplomatic fiasco, doing nothing to advance genuine U.S. interests while disrupting cooperation with Moscow and pushing Russia and China back together, reports Robert Parry.
The Proud Message of Utah Phillips
It is often forgotten that the path to the Great American Middle Class was forged in large part by labor activists and social reformers during the first six decades of the last century, a struggle that left behind a proud culture of music and stories that can inspire the present, as Richard L. Fricker recalls.
Two Paths toward the Net's Future
The battle lines over "Net neutrality" are taking shape, between an approach that would let providers offer pricier fast lanes and an alternative plan that would regulate the Internet as a utility to protect consumers, reports Michael Winship.
The 'Net Neutrality' Fight Heats Up
The battle over the FCC's plans for limiting "Net Neutrality" – and giving a speed advantage to the people who can pay a premium – is heating up as protesters bring the fight to Washington, writes Michael Winship.
The Inconvenient Truth about Jesus
There is much religiosity in the U.S., with the Supreme Court's right-wing majority even approving Christian prayers at the start of government business. But there is little appreciation of the radical political and economic message at the center of Jesus's teachings, writes Rev. Howard Bess.
A People's War in East Ukraine
Ukraine's Western-backed coup regime in Kiev has launched an offensive against ethnic Russians in the east while a pro-regime mob used fire to kill some 31 anti-regime protesters in Odessa. Virtually all U.S. pundits favor the coup regime, but Daniel Patrick Welch offers a different view of the conflict

Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on March 3, 2013.
7Dayz is a behind-the-scenes peek into the last days in the life of Tupac Amaru Shakur through the eyes of his closest allies.
About this project
I want to tell you the story of Tupac Amaru Shakur - as you know, he was one of the most influential artists ever seen, an artist who was tragically murdered before his time, and yet this story has not yet been told.
Until now.
You now have a chance to see what his life was like, through the eyes of his closest allies, those who lived and worked with him.
Tupac is revered by many music fans as an incredible artist, a dreamer and a poet, but did you know that:
● He was finalizing a three picture movie deal immediately before his death?
● He had already sent a resignation letter to Death Row Records at the time of his passing.
● Tupac's "checkered" past is completely understandable when you know his life circumstances. Remember, There's no saint without a past and no sinner without a future.
● Tupac was a true humanitarian, he truly made a difference in the lives of others around him. You will see this in the movie.
● He thought politicians were the biggest gangstas, and he had plans to go into politics, in order to clean it up, later in life.
● He was a strong supporter of charities such as A Place Called Home, a charity that caters to at risk youth.
● Pac was full of energy, full of life, and un-relenting. He had an incredible work ethic, as you will see in this film when you see never-before seen home movies of Pac in his natural environment.
● Pac wanted to share a candid view of his life with you, which is why he told me to grab my camera and record everything he did for the last few months of his life.
You see, many people think they know everything there is to know about Tupac; they know his music, they know he has sold over 75 million albums (and his albums are still selling well today), fans know his work as an actor in movies, and they even know the great documentaries that have been made about him since his demise. But despite all of that, it amazes and saddens me that his fans are still to this day in the dark, about this last days of life.
Those 7 days remained a secret… until now.
You can bring Tupac's story to life today. You, right now, are the most important person to Tupac because you are going create Pac's unreleased documentary. You may not know me, but I met Pac and worked with him for the last 8 months of his life. He and I became close and Pac agreed to let me film him in those crucial last months. I considered Pac my friend, my brother and my leader. And after Pac was shot in Vegas, I was one of only a handful of people who were with him in the hospital in Las Vegas.
The chilling details of Pac's last 7 days are unknown to most fans. Those 7 days were surreal, infested with FBI informants. Gut-wrenching nights spent with Pac drifting in and out of consciousness. You would be stunned to hear about the vicious death threats sent to Pac in his weakened state, and yet the Vegas Police Department refused to cooperate - the whole experience was nerve-shattering.
And yet what happened during those 7 days has remained a secret, until now. You see, Pac wanted you to see the real him, this is why he hand-picked me to follow him around with my camera and document his life. You and I were robbed of more than just his music when his life was tragically cut short, you were robbed of the story he wanted to tell you. But it doesn't have to be that way…
You will be a part of Pac's story today by joining us in creating the 7 DAYZ documentary. I thank you for your help in the only way I know how, by giving you access to a jackpot of never-before-seen 2Pac photos, audio files, photo books, posters, video and audio that the general public will NEVER see. This is our "thank you" for helping to tell the world about 2Pac's story. I think you are going to love the home movies Pac made, they reflect on all aspects of his personality, some are fun, others are serious, and above all, they are inspiring.
Now is your time. You are now a part of history, thank you for helping us to allow the world into Tupac's inner sanctum. Remember, Tupac's 7 DAYZ story is more than just the last days in the hospital, you will see never-released footage from Pac's every-day life, interviews with some of Tupac's inner circle, many of Pac's friends who have never spoken to anyone before now. This is truly the first opportunity for you to see Pac as he lived through his eyes. I cannot wait for you to see and feel the 7 DAYZ experience.
p.s. Remember, 7 DAYZ is an opportunity for you to tell Tupac's story to the world, a story that has yet to be told. We want you to see the interviews, photos and video footage in the 7 DAYZ members area DO FOR LOVE, that has never been seen or heard before. Today is your opportunity to get a piece of the 7 DAYZ story. This film is for you, all you have to do is join the 7 DAYZ crew. Also, a portion of all proceeds of this film will go to TASF.ORG, Pac's charity, because that is what Pac would want.
Thank You, and I hope to thank you in person at the 7 DAYZ premiere!
Risks and challenges
Every film project has a risk of coming up against production obstacles. The most common problem is not having the resources to complete the film. The beauty of the 7 Dayz project is that I have more than enough never-before-seen footage to complete the movie. Today on YouTube there are several pirated snippets of this footage, and these clips have been viewed by 252,074 Tupac fans and counting. I am excited to share this footage with Tupac fans, and we have more than enough to complete several movies. The majority of the 7 Dayz footage is already shot and simply waiting for editing. There will be some additional interviews, but I have so much raw movie footage for 7 Dayz, there will be no problems coming up with enough footage for the movie.
The beauty of this project is that the team and all the individuals wanting to be a part of it are eager to see this come to fruition. I personally have being fortunate enough to work in film production for the past 17 years. I have had the pleasure of working with Yoko Ono, Snoop Dogg and Trent Reznor, to name a few. I have also created commercials for some of the worlds largest brands, such as SHELL, NESTLE and BUTTERFINGER.
It is exciting for me to share this Tupac footage with the fans, it is about time we see Tupac as he was in his natural environment.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
