What takes more bravery than the choice to be yourself, to honor your truth, your intuition, over and over again, in the face of circumstances or people or surroundings that would rather you acted like someone else?

Seeing dancers rehearse is strange. First because the thing that makes dance what it is -- pure magic -- is shown pretty naked. This is very hard work. The dancers show it.
It is one of the most pressing questions of American dance: how should we preserve the work of great 20th-century choreographers who glued their style to a generation distinct and removed from our own?

But while Baff's physical imprint on the property has been huge, it's her realized vision of Jacob's Pillow as a breeding ground for art that has made the largest impact on dance.
The American Ballet Theatre recently announced that Misty Copeland would be promoted to the role of principal dancer, the first African-American woman to be named to this esteemed role in the world of ballet.
Watching the Royal Ballet is like staring at a Degas painting for two and a half hours. The company preserves, but it doesn't push and evolve. Still, it's pretty.
Martha Graham's impact on the art of dance has been compared to the impacts of Stravinsky, Picasso and Frank Lloyd Wright to the fields of music, painting, and architecture, respectively.
In 1960, dance critic Jill Johnston reviewed Martha Graham's season at the 5th Street Theatre. She likened the choreographer to "a kind of high priest...

Last week's premiere at San Francisco Ballet proved to be an all-around artistic feat - again for Ratmansky, for the entire company of San Francisco Ballet and, yes, for Shostakovich who had not penned these compositions for the ballet stage.
The Presidential Medal of Freedom may not have the name cachet of an Oscar, but it is our nation's highest civilian honor and an award to be celebrated.
Inspiration and creativity are so elusively interwoven that the most compelling and important new art is always a collaboration, perhaps unrecognized, with whatever past accomplishment made the present what it is.
There are genius nurses, genius firemen, genius parents and genius accountants. Genius relates to the how even more than to the what. When we bring light to the world -- when our actions increase beauty, truth and love -- we know that we're following our genius.
I love dancers' parties. The floor's full and no one's drunk, with every style and move you can think of unleashed, celebrated, spun, from electric boogaloo to sixties go-go to glam jazz to the running man.
If human centipedes, Houdini-like escapes, Cirque de Soleil-style aerial acrobatics and lots of very sexy, muscular performers in dance belts appeal to your sense of fun and aesthetics, then Pilobolus' annual run at the Joyce Theater should be your cup of tea.
Rehearsal for Martha Graham's Helios, Durham School of the Arts. The usual dancer pile-up -- dancers stretching, listening to music on their headphones, even singing along.

I want to say I love this product, but if i loved it so much i wouldnt be returning it! The coverage is amazing however it caused more acne than ive ever had in my life! I didnt change anything in my makeup/skincare routine so im positive this is the culprit of the worst breakout ive ever experienced :( it's way too greasy and i dont even have oily skin, my skin is sensitive and prone to acne but definitely more on the dry side but with this on my face i can literally leave a grease stain on a tissue. Im very disappointed because the sales rep told me it was perfect for sensitive skin but it aggravated mine SO much. Now im on the hunt for something that has the wonderful coverage of this product minus the shine and breakouts!

I love this stuff. I use it as concealer around my nose and eyes and any red spots on my face. I use this almost every single day and it lasts forever. I have been using it for years because I can't find anything else like it. Honestly I've never tried to find anything else because I love this so much. Under the eyes it gives good natural coverage that makes you look refreshed and rested. Perfection! I will say my skin tends to be on the drier side especially in the winter so if you tend to have oily skin this may not be for you. But I use this year round. Please Benefit, never discontinue!!

My mum and sister absolutely adore this, and say they couldn't live without it. I on the other hand can take it or leave it. Sure, I'll keep it in my desk at work and use it for emergencies but I won't bother buying it again when it runs out - which it probably won't as it lasts ages (which is a plus if you like it). Reasons for this are:
1. I'm fairer skinned than my family and even the lightest shade Spin the Bottle is a little too yellow for me.
2. I have an oily t-zone and this product is too 'moist'. It slides off straightaway if I knock it i.e. by scratching my nose.
The plus side: If you have time to set it as soon as you've applied it (I find warm fingers work it in well) it provides a good coverage - great for emergencies.
I'd recommend this to people with skin on the dry side and with olive undertones.

This is one of my favourite foundations, it goes on creamy and works best if you apply with a brush I use smash box no 13 brush, it has long lasting wear and has a high coverage the only down fall is the price, it cost me €39 and lasted about 6 weeks, packaging is very handy for on the go but I did find a lot of product was hard to get at when you get down to the end.

Too bad this is being discontinued. It is one of the better foundations I have tried lately. Color match was problematic with only 4 choices but they blend so well that the colors are pretty forgiving. Great coverage. Glides over pores. It covers like a cream foundation but lasts so much better and did not get oily or break down. The lasting power was not quite like ELDW or Colorstay but held up pretty darn well in high humidity. When it wears off it is pretty even. Foolproof - slap it on, blend, and go.
This stick is stupid expensive but everything is these days. I said "yes" to rebuy but I won't rebuy knowing it is going bye-bye. Why do all the good products get discontinued and crappy ones stay forever?

I love this foundation so much but the only problem is I have dry skin so it accentuates my dry patches. On the other hand it makes my skin so flawless and leaves a matte finish. PLUS my pores are actually hidden by this foundation. I just wish it could be more moisturizing.

After using Estée Lauders Maximum Coverage Double Wear I completely broke out in spots for the last three months so 3 weeks ago I stopped using it and went looking for a new foundation and I stumbled across the benefit counter! I asked what was their best foundation for full coverage and I was colour matched to Tea Party in the Playsticks range (it was the wrong colour completely), I was pushed into buying it and regretted it the second I came home! But I eventually got used to it only to my shock discovery that it only lasted me 2 weeks!!! It was completely gone after just two weeks. I applied it directly to my face and as I like the full coverage look I would put a few strokes on! But two weeks for the price I payed (€36) it was a complete waste of money! I would only recommend this product if you use it sparingly and not everyday! Otherwise complete waste of money! Found a new foundation which I love so wont be budging from that for a while!

I've been wearing this product for years, but in different ways. I originally would use it as a foundation, but the face IMMEDIATELY became shiny and oily-looking, so I only use it as a concealer on certain areas of my cheeks where I have discoloration on top of my foundation and it seems to work well. You do have to set it with a powder, but overall the lasting power and coverage is great.
One tip: It can definitely be used as a highlighter because of the luminous look it gives your skin when used in certain places. If used carefully, it won't look cakey and the stick will last you for quite a while!

I tried to apply this in a range of ways but no matter how I would apply it it would always turn super orange on me. Sad considering how much it was and how much I wanted to like it.

ABSTRACT: Background: Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) has proved to predict the prospective mortality in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. However, its value of long-term mortality predictability in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients has not been adequately studied. Methods: A total of 155 chronic stable PD patients from November 2005 to December 2006 were enrolled. At baseline, the MIS, Subjective Global Assessment (SGA), as well as clinical, laboratory, and anthropometric parameters were recorded. All patients were followed until October 2009 to evaluate mortality as a primary outcome. Results: The MIS correlated very well with SGA and other nutrition and inflammation markers. Patients with a higher MIS had a worse survival rate compared to those with lower MIS. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, one unit increase of MIS was associated with a 1.27-fold greater death risk (hazard ratio: 1.27, 95% confidence interval: 1.19 - 1.36; p < 0.001). MIS had a superior mortality predictability compared with SGA. Moreover, univariate and multivariate analyses denoted MIS, age, dialysis vintage, and comorbidities as independent predictors of total mortality. Conclusion: MIS is a promising marker for malnutrition inflammation assessment and an independent predictor of long-term mortality in Chinese PD patients.
Article: Elevated neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio predicts overall and cardiovascular mortality in maintenance peritoneal dialysis patients[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is widely used as a marker of inflammation and an indicator of cardiovascular outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease. However, its prognostic value in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is still unknown. Methods We studied 138 newly started PD patients and 60 healthy controls at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, China. Baseline NLR as well as demographic, clinical, and biochemical parameters were recorded. All patients were followed up until March 2011 to evaluate mortality as the primary outcome. Overall and cardiovascular disease-free survival rates were compared according to NLR level. Multivariate analysis was performed to assess the prognostic value of NLR. Results Baseline NLR levels (mean 3.5 ± 1.6) were significantly increased in PD patients compared to healthy controls (mean 1.5 ± 0.5; P < 0.001). Patients with higher NLR had a higher mortality rate compared with patients with lower NLR (51.5% vs 22.9%; P = 0.006). The 1-year and 3-year overall survival rates were 86.6% and 65.9% for patients with higher NLR compared with 97% and 85.1% for patients with lower NLR (P = 0.006). Patients with higher NLR also showed a higher cardiovascular mortality rate, compared with patients with lower NLR (38% vs 7.6%; P = 0.003). The 1-year and 3-year cardiovascular event-free survival rates were 90.7% and 81.9% for patients with higher NLR, compared with 98.6% and 95.1% for patients with lower NLR. Multivariate analysis showed high NLR value was an independent risk factor for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Conclusion Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio is a strong predictor for overall and cardiovascular mortality in PD patients.
Article: Association between depression and malnutrition-Inflammation complex syndrome in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Depression, the most common psychological disorder among patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), is associated with poor survival. The prevalence of depression and its relation with the malnutrition-inflammation complex syndrome (MICS) have not yet been clearly defined in Chinese continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. A total of 142 patients on CAPD were enrolled in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University. The Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and the malnutrition-inflammation score (MIS) were used for depression and MICS evaluation, respectively. Clinical, socioeconomic, and malnutrition-inflammation factors were compared among patients with and without depression. Binary regression analysis was performed to investigate the independent association between depression and MICS. The mean HAMD and MIS scores were 7.12 ± 5.28 and 4.45 ± 3.56, respectively. According to HAMD, 37 patients (26.1%) had depression and 70 patients (49.3%) had potential depression. Older age, longer dialysis vintage, worse residual renal function, lower employment and reimbursement status, and higher comorbidity index were positively correlated with depression. Compared to non-depressed patients, the depressed ones also showed lower levels of serum albumin and higher levels of C-reactive protein (CRP). Correlation results showed that the HAMD scores were significantly and positively correlated with MIS (r = 0.46, P < 0.01). Moreover, the incidence of peritonitis was significantly higher in depressed compared to non-depressed patients. Binary regression analysis showed that MIS was the only independent risk factor for depression. Depression is commonly encountered in Chinese CAPD patients. A close relationship exists between depression and MICS.

Environment & Health
Great, comrade Xi is against corruption? Maybe he will allow us to peek at his family finances and see how they made $300 million. While he is at it, comrade crook could explain how he afforded a Harvard education for his kid on a paupers salary. All chicoms are dirty, its just a question of how much.
Comrade Xi is just a stupid crook.
One reform Xi has apparently not yet attempted is breaking the stranglehold of boring blue suits and dyed hair on all top leaders. This would be real groundbreaking reform. At least it would help us tell the leadership apart!
Great article. Well written.
Mr Xi has made his symbolic first move of his intentions to follow Mr. Deng's foot steps and continue to build on the market economy that Mr Deng started building 20 years ago. To deal with the declining exports, due to slow economies in the EU and US, to deal with the rising labor cost in China caused low cost manufacturing industries to leave China, and the slowing construction industry collectively caused large nimber of unemployed migrant farm labor and high unemployment in many major cities. In addition, both the EU and the US have informed China that it must shrink its massive trade imbalances with them meaning that China must balance its export driven economy with substantially increased domestic consumption.
All of these require China to respond with effective responses quickly or China's economy is going to gradually slow down and very serious problems could appear. So, Mr Xi's team must now begin to build a case for change in the Chinese economy. Mr Xi's team must build a sense of urgency for the entire country. Such that, China must seize this opportunity of slow economies in EU, US and Japan to implement the necessary market oriented changes in the Chinese economy so that it would be able to restore the Chinese economy on a growth path again with gradually declining export, increasing domestic consumption, and reduced migrant worker unemployment and reduced unemployment in all the major cities - these would be the measuring sticks that Mr Xi's team must use to gauge whether the changes they are making are having the desired effects.
China is facing tremendous challenges in the globalized economy and China is already facing a rapidly aging population that will have very serious impact on the Chinese economy. For a close by example, China only needs to look at what's happening in Japan. Mr Xi's team has its work cut out for them for the next 10 years. They need all the best wishes and good luck and them some to succeed. We wish them success.
Comrade Xi stands to make billions as China's leader in just the same manner as Hu and Wen. His family already has over $300 million and where they got it is anyone's guess. In addition, his family controls rare earths. With corruption in China being worth 3-10% per year do you think comrade Xi will want to stop corruption or get a piece of the pie.
You do not grow up as a commie and then all the sudden start to feel altruistic and loving for your fellow man. The only changes they will make are out of fear of the impending revolution that is not far off. Why do you think so many chicoms are shipping their kids overseas. Comrade Xi has done so and half his comrades as well. Bo Xilia's little spawn is still over here spending all their stolen cash.
Wake up, China has been corrupt for thousands of years and will not change.
Btw if comrade Xi were serious then why does he not open his bank accounts to the world? Why does he not show how his family got its cash and how he financed his daughters education?
Aside from this, why did he allow that Beijing nail house to be torn down with a scant 200k RMB payment. And if this is not enough, why are they tearing down the military hospital in Beijing to build high rises?
The fact is that a new round of land grabs is on. Xi et. al. need to get cash quickly so look forward to more land seizures, killings and then riots. The chicoms are out to soak this place dry and then move to civilized countries.
As long as Xi can bury the murderous American regime into the scrapheap of history, that's the only reform that matters.
The more hard line and ruthless Xi gets towards the bankrupt despots in America, the more peace China will have.
Well done Xi, China must start to build up the military including the nuclear arsenal.
I remember victims of the Tiananmen Square Massacre. I remember Tank Man's bravery. When will China be free? Why can't we have elections like other Asian country?
Wait, sorry - American pilots volunteered to bring supplies to China and fight Japanese planes during ww2. My remarks were ignorant and ungracious. I apologize.
Finally we have free elections in China. Thank God that we now finally are free to vote. It is a wonderful thing that now in our Free China, the government officials are the servants of the people, rather than the citizenry being the servants of the government.
Remember, all democracies are flawed and remember that democracy is alien to Chinese society. The Hong Kongers who protest do so because they are Little English. The Taiwanese have elections because they are too American. The Chinese in the US or Canada who run for office, who are elected to office, and those who participate in elections as voters are really not Chinese. Only the CCP represents the true China. Confucius, who wrote about ethical behavior and the accountability of governors thousands of years ago probably wasn't Chinese. Tank Man probably was a Frenchman. The Tiananmen Massacre peaceful protestors who held up a model of the Statue of Liberty were not real Chinese, even though they might have looked Chinese and spoke Chinese. The CCP, whose entire origins are traceable to the psychotic and twisted Germans Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels; the CCP, who learned deception and looting from the Russian Lenin; the CCP, who learned mass murder from the Georgian Stalin - they are only true voices of the Chinese nation. MousieDung, the peasant murderer is the eternal hero, who lived every moment of his life for the sake of the people of China.
WSJ Think too much, break head. No think, head no hurt. CCP think for WSJ, CCP no break head. Simple solution to all problem.
If China's anticorruption crusade is working so well in cleaning up the Communist party, why is Beijing worried that some think that the campaign is really just a struggle for political power?
A trio of recent repressive actions by the Chinese party-state illustrates how far Beijing is willing to go to snuff out dissent.
Many observers now wonder whether the recent hammering of China's stocks and currency will have political fallout for Communist Party leaders. Not likely, writes Russell Leigh Moses.
The economy may eclipse politics as a concern for Beijing in 2016, but in China the two are always closely intertwined. CRT analyst Russell Leigh Moses outlines three major political questions that will loom over China in the months to come.
The conviction -- and disbarment -- of prominent human rights lawyer Pu Zhiqiang sends a stern warning to other lawyers and to other citizens who speak out against Communist Party policy.

by Michael
Worked 18 months at an annual salary of $101,000. Got Laid off due to department moving from Florida to North Carolina. Did not file for unemployment as I was offered a Sales position on straight commission. Worked when I could as I had open heart surgery and could not carry the sample box. Made less than 4,000 and worked approximately 1 1/2 of the 4 months. Finally I resigned due to medical reasons. My boss said my job would always be waiting for me.
I have been living off of my 401 K and that is almost gone. Am I ENTITLED TO UNEMPLOYMENT BENFITS?????
Please help.
Hi Michael,
Yes you should be. Florida does have a provision for quitting due to a worker's illness or disability, but it all comes down to the sequence of events and if you are still able and available for other work. Therefore, you will have to show why you were physically incapable of doing the job any longer...and probably will need to provide some medical documentation.
The statute says:
443.101 Disqualification for benefits.--An individual shall be disqualified for benefits:
(1)(a) For the week in which he or she has voluntarily left his or her work without good cause attributable to his or her employing unit or in which the individual has been discharged by his or her employing unit for misconduct connected with his or her work, based on a finding

Greta Gerwig is the next Ted Mosby, so what better time to brush up on our knowledge of the indie actress.
Now that Greta Gerwig's been cast in the lead of 'How I Met Your Mother' spin off 'How I Met Your Dad' the indie actress is taking a big leap into the mainstream. However before she gets just too famous to keep up with, here are ten facts about the actress to impress your friends with.
Greta Gerwig, Ted Mosby with indie-cred
1.Greta is a California girl really. She was born in Sacramento, where her mother worked as a nurse and her father worked in a bank. She then went on to study at the all-female Barnard College in New York where she switched from a degree in dance and music to English and philosophy.
2. She originally wanted to be a screenwriter, but got the acting bug after taking a bit part in Joe Swanberg's 2006 movie 'LOL', where she played the adventurously named character, 'Greta'.
3.Gerwig's role in 'LOL' led to more collaborations between her and Joe Swanberg. In 2007 the pair teamed up for 'Hannah Takes the Stairs' where she also got to use her writing skills, co-penning the script with Swanberg.
4.Her next collaboration with Swanberg, 'Nights and Weekends' , would see her once again co-write but this time she would also take on co-producing duties. The film, about a couple in a long distance relationship, was nominated for Best Film at the Independent Spirit Awards.
5. Gerwig's breakout role came in 2010''s 'Greenberg' which co-starred Ben Stiller. For her role as Florence, Gerwig earned a Gotham Award nomination for Best Breakthrough Actress as well as an Independent Spirit award nomination for best actress. 'Greenberg' was directed by Noah Baumbach whom Gerwig would then begin dating.
6. Gerwig's mainstream debut was in 2011's 'No Strings Attached'. Starring alongside Aston Kutcher, she playing the best friend of Natalie Portman's character. The film recieved mostly mixed reviews, however Gerwig's comedy perfomance was praised.
7. You also might remember seeing her in 2011's 'Arthur' remake alongside Russell Brand, though you might have wiped that one from your memory. If so, all you need to know is Greta stars as Naomi, a tour guide and Arthur's love interest. She later admitted to having a 'crazy' crush on Russell and that Helen Mirren let her know it was ok not to reply to emails, handy.
8. In 2012 Great starred in Woody Allen's 'To Rome with Love.' Working with Allen was a dream come true for Greta who had wrote in her High School Yearbook 'living in New York and making a Woddy Allen movie', under where I want to be in ten years time.
9.Greta's standout role came in 2013's 'Frances Ha.' Written with boyfriend Noah Baumbach, Greta got to go back to her first love, dance, to play dancer Frances. The film recieved critical acclaim with Gerwig's performance particularly praised.
10. Gerwig took part in last years 'YouTube Music Awards' and was filmed by director Spike Jonze dancing to Arcade Fire's 'Afterlife'. The fantastic video features Gerwig doing some amazing free form dancing and being joined by the band alongside some very enthusiastic children.

IN THIS EDITION of What's On Your Wrist, Ernest Alexander designer Ernest Sabine on why he wears the same kind of watch as an adult that he wore as a kid.
• • •
The Subject: Ernest Sabine
The Watch: Swatch Twice Again
The Details: "Sometimes I like to keep it clean and simple. I love my classic black-and-white Swatch watch. I wore this exact same kind when I was 10 years old, back in the late '80s when it was cool to wear three or four at a time. It's nice because it reminds me not to make things too complicated. Sometimes simpler is better."

THE link between poverty and educational attainment has been noticeable in Glasgow for a long time.
It is not only in exam results that poverty can have a detrimental effect, but on a child's overall experience of school.
From the stigma that can be attached to free school meals to missing school trips and not being able to afford equipment, poverty can make life a misery for many children, as well as affecting the ability to learn.
The project to understand more about children's experiences and evaluating well-meaning efforts which may have failed in the past is welcome.
Any measures that can create a more level playing field for all children in the city and promote inclusiveness must be explored and deserve to be supported.
Identifying the problems is one thing and putting in place some measures to help is good but the best outcome would be for government and authorities at all levels to tackle the poverty and the causes of poverty itself.
Pupils are sitting their exams this month and the day when Glasgow schools can look at the results when they are released and not have to weigh them up against deprivation statistics would be among the biggest succeses this city could have.

The Northstars have reached a new pinnacle.
Last week, Newsweek magazine released its annual list of the top high schools in the country, and Cicero-North Syracuse High School joined the ranks at No. 1,352.
"It's an honor," C-NS Executive Principal Jim Froio said. "We were very pleased to make the list. It's something we're very excited about."
The 1,358 schools on the list represent the top 5 percent of schools in the country. The rankings are based on the number of Advanced Placement (AP) tests taken by all students in the school divided by the number of graduating seniors.
"That basically means that you have to have more people taking the AP exams than you have graduates," Froio said. "We had a record number of students in AP classes last year, so we think that's what pushed us over the top."
Froio said C-NS offers 14 AP classes. New additions last year were psychology and English 11. He indicated that the new offerings helped C-NS' ratio in the Newsweek rankings.
"It's very difficult for large schools to make the list," he said. "When you have 650 kids in each graduating class, that means you have to have at least that many taking AP exams. By adding those classes, we upped our totals and got ourselves onto the list."
Froio said Newsweek's method of ranking schools is a good indication of the rigors of a school's advanced programming.
"It measures how many students are challenging themselves in their curriculum," he said. "It gives an indication of how good your AP program is."
Students with passing scores on AP exams receive college credit for the course. But at C-NS, they get an extra perk.
"We're one of the few schools with a concurrent agreement with OCC," Froio said. "In U.S. history and government and English, our kids can earn OCC credits."
This is the third year of the program, which Froio said has been "pretty successful."
The principal added that the school is always looking to improve its curriculum.
"We're hoping to do even better next year," he said.

Magazine Extras: Romance Gets Academic
In the February issue of RT BOOK REVIEWS, we profiled the nonfiction academic study of romance, New Approaches to Popular Romance Fiction: Critical Essays, edited by two professors, Sarah S.G. Frantz and Eric Murphy Selinger. The volume, which will be published this year by McFarland, contains 18 essays about the romance genre and community, from luminaries in the academic world as well as romance authors and bloggers. The editors had so much to say about romances and genre fiction and their fascination with the books, that we wanted to continue the interview in online. So today we're bringing you the extended Q&A with the book's editors and RT Managing Editor Liz French. Read on to learn about how Frantz and Selinger formed the International Association for the Study of Popular Romance (IASPR) and what kind of books they like, not to mention how fun it is to teach college students about genre fiction!
RT BOOK REVIEWS: OK, I want to know a little more about you both. I see in the book's bio listings that Sarah's a professor in Fayetteville. How long have you been there?
Sarah S.G. Frantz: This is my eighth year at FSU. I teach two classes of composition, one Humanities II (1400-Present), and one literature course (either 18th century literature or Romanticism) every semester. I've only ever taught a class about romance novels once.
RT: What and where does Eric teach?
Eric Murphy Selinger: I'm in my 16th year at DePaul University, in Chicago. Unlike Sarah, I only have to teach six courses a year, and lately those have been divided more or less equally between courses on poetry (my original specialty) and popular romance. I get to teach big undergraduate surveys of the genre, specialized upper-division courses, and graduate seminars on romance. Since 2005, when I did my first romance class, I've taught about 25 of them.
RT: A little bit about how you started the IASPR would be nice too. I read a bit on your website about the paper cocktail napkin. But what motivated you? How did you find each other and get started on that tack?
SSGF: Eric and I first met at PCA [Popular Culture Association, an academic group] 2007, where we all decided that if we were actually going to make a field of popular romance studies, we needed four things: a dedicated academic organization, dedicated conferences, a dedicated academic journal and a scholar at a Ph.D-granting institution. When another PCA participant said that the Romance Writers of Australia were meeting in Brisbane in 2009, which is where he was based, Eric decided that our first conference would be there. There are actually a lot of romance scholars in Australia, so it seemed like a great way to connect with them to begin building our international connections. At PCA 2008, we hadn't got much further, but by PCA 2009, I had an organization name, logo and mission statement and we accepted our first member (and their money). And the conference went off pretty much without a hitch!
EMS: Sarah's covered the nuts and bolts and dates — let me say a word or two about the motivation. When I started working on romance, I couldn't find any colleagues: not at DePaul, and not even online. I went to the Popular Culture Association conference in 2006, and there wasn't a romance area anymore — the four of us speaking on the genre had to give our papers in other divisions. (Mine was on Emma Holly, and they put me on an "Eros and Pornography" panel.) After that conference, I started the RomanceScholar listserv, and then the Teach Me Tonight blog; I wanted to get people in touch with each other, and start building the field from the bottom up. (That's what was going on in 2008, mostly: networking, conference planning, blogging, that sort of thing, before the big IASPR launch in 2009.)
RT: Does all this academic study of romance "kill" the pure entertainment of reading romance for you?
SSGF: I find it difficult to read authors I've done a lot of work on (Suzanne Brockmann, Joey Hill) without analyzing them. I can't read them purely as a reader anymore — I'm too caught up in the cool narrative stuff they're doing to just "enjoy" the book. But then, I could probably say that about any book nowadays. I'm too much a scholar ever to read "purely" as a reader anymore, but then, I get my own enjoyment out of a text when I read as a scholar, so I honestly don't think I'm missing anything ...
EMS: I've worried, over the years, that all of this study would get in the way of pure enjoyment. That happened for me with poetry at one point: I just couldn't turn off the scholar program in my brain, or the teacher one that kept wondering what I'd say about this poem in the classroom, so I lost the ability to lose myself in the book. Hasn't happened with romance yet, though! Not only do I keep finding new novels that I love and read for fun, but books that I've taught many times seem to get better and better — in part because I've gotten to know them better, and see more in them, and in part because I keep seeing them freshly, through my students' eyes.
RT: Do you get any guff from fellow studiers of popular culture about your focus on romance?
SSGF: Not once. I have a fabulous department who are excited about what I do.
EMS: Envy, sometimes. Guff, never!
RT: Did you / do you read romance for pleasure? What (if this is the case) was your "gateway" romance?
SSGF: I've always read romances for pleasure. Always. And I still do. It's still what I use for stress release. I can't imagine not reading romance. My first romance was Anne Weale's A River Room, a Mills & Boon romance I snuck from my mother when she left it lying around one day when I was 12. I still have it. The first romance that really hooked me was Roberta Leigh's Man in a Million, another Mills & Boon. What hooked me was evidence of the hero's emotional vulnerability. When I saw that, that was it for me. Instant reader for life. And this shows up in my scholarship, which has all been focused on the ways in which female novelists write their male characters, how they construct gender.
EMS: My dad was a big fan of the Great American Songbook, so I grew up surrounded by smart, sophisticated, eloquent love songs: Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hart, that sort of thing. It was an easy step from that to love poetry, which was my first scholarly interest, and to romantic comedy films, but I had a big mental block against reading romance fiction, as so many men do, until I hit my mid-30s. Depending on how strictly you want to define the genre, the "gateway" for me was either Bridget Jones's Diary or Katie Fforde's Second Thyme Around, and then I discovered Jennifer Crusie's Crazy for You, and I've never looked back.
RT: What do you think pure (whatever that means) romance fans will make of your book? Is it even written for them?
SSGF: The book is for people who want to think a little bit more about what romance novels and the romance community mean. I definitely think romance fans will enjoy it. There's nothing wrong with romance receiving academic criticism. We are adding to, not taking away from romance, with this book. And we tried hard to make sure that the articles did not use much academic jargon and would be engaging to the non-academic reader.
EMS: Some fans hear "criticism" or "critical essays" and think that what they'll read is essays that are critical of the genre and its readers. They have reason to be wary — a lot of early academic work from back in the 1980s and '90s seems skeptical at best, and at worst, downright condescending, and some of it still gets cited and taught. You won't find anything like that in our book, though — many of the scholars were romance fans (or authors, or bloggers) before they decided to do academic work on the genre, and even those who came to it first as scholars are writing essays that make the books or issues they study seem more interesting and important, not less. I think any fan would find something in here that she'd be very excited to read—and to talk about!
RT: How was your 2011 NYC conference? Did it coincide with RWA? Do you have a relationship with RWA or any other romance group?
SSGF: We deliberately scheduled IASPR's NYC conference right before RWA. We ran Sunday through Tuesday. RWA's Literacy Signing was on Tuesday, the conference Wednesday through Friday. It was wonderfully successful. Our venue and host were amazing, the papers were fabulous and our community just keeps growing. RWA very generously funded us for travel grants, as they have done for all three conferences. This year, we were able to bring people from Belgium, England, Taiwan, Canada, Greece and Spain with RWA's generous donation. In 2009, Samhain Publishing also donated money for the conference.
EMS: Back in 2005, RWA started an Academic Research Grant competition, and a number of us who are involved in IASPR — including both Sarah and me — have gotten those grants for our individual projects. IASPR brings people together, both physically (at the conferences) and virtually (via our online Journal of Popular Romance Studies, JPRS for short). We're delighted to have additional support from RWA that helps with this outreach and in-person conversation, which is really the heart of any emerging academic field. On a more personal level, the NYC conference was my first exposure to an RWA convention — I went to the literacy signing, which was truly a mind-blowing experience for any English professor. Hard to fret about the future of reading when you see that ballroom packed full of authors and readers!
RT: How did you amass this collection of essays in New Approaches to Popular Romance Fiction, did you put a call out to various scholarly publications, or did you actively seek out various essayists? Was there anyone in particular you were determined to "get?"
SSGF: New Approaches was built with a combination of an open call for papers posted to various academic listservs and romance-specific blogs, and targeted invitations. We're thrilled to have Australian historian Hsu-Ming Teo as a contributor. Also Mary Bly/Eloisa James was quite a coup. Honestly, looking through our list, we probably strongly urged at least half of the list to submit their papers to us, and overall, the lineup is super-strong.
EMS: We had so many more proposals than we could include — it was exciting, but also frustrating, since we did the call for papers before we had the online journal. I hope that some of the folks who proposed and got turned down will give JPRS a shot; there's a lot of great work getting published there now, and since you don't need a subscription to read it, JPRS reaches a really broad audience of students and scholars and general readers, worldwide. Speaking of online things, I think it's great that we have not only a piece by "Smart Bitch" Sarah Wendell, but also a really interesting essay about the "cover snark" threads over at the Smart Bitches, Trashy Books website. This isn't just a book about romance fiction; some of it's also about the romance community.
RT: What would you say to the people who sigh and say, "Oh reading romance for a living, I want YOUR job?" Is it really "the life?" If you study and analyze romance for a living — more or less — what do you read or watch to unwind? Busman's holiday?
SSGF: To unwind ... I read romances. Or watch romantic comedies. Every now and then I'll post on Twitter that I'm reading Joey Hill, for instance, or my favorite m/m romance author, K.A. Mitchell, for research. And yes, that's pretty much "the life." I wouldn't have it any other way. But then, in my "other" academic life, I studied Jane Austen, and you pretty much can't go wrong there, either.
EMS: Is it really "the life"? Yup. That it is. Even grading the papers is fun. I honestly can't believe how lucky I am. As for unwinding, I read romances and SF and poetry, and every now and then another genre — but a few years ago one of my romance students introduced me to Bollywood, which opened up a whole new world of love stories to enjoy. My wife and I started watching movies like Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Jab We Met and Om Shanti Om, and lately we've discovered these amazing Korean TV dramas, also love stories, which you can stream with subtitles online: things like Coffee Prince and My Lovely Sam-Soon and Boys Over Flowers, which was based on a Japanese manga. I'm fascinated by how romance fiction conventions cross national boundaries, but get distinctive twists from country to country, and there's a whole world of romance out there that we Americans barely know anything about. Great stuff to relax with, as well as to study!
To learn more you can log on to the International Association for the Study of Popular Romance website and be sure to check out the February issue of RT BOOK REVIEWS for more about the book.

Simon Cowell admits One Direction have a "tough" job and are feeling the strain of constantly touring.
The music boss, who put together the 'Midnight Memories' band on 'The X Factor' and has been responsible for their global success, has reassured fans they haven't "lost the plot" after Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson were filmed smoking a cannabis-laced cigarette.
Simon accepts 1D - also made up of Harry Styles, Niall Horan and Liam Payne - have a tough job because they are so in demand around the world, but he is adamant they can cope with their gruelling schedule.
In an interview on UK station BBC Radio 2, he said: "Obviously it's a private matter for me to deal with. But all I can say, from my own experience with the boys, is that I have worked with artists who have a few hits and they can turn into monsters, this lot haven't. They really are hard workers, they really like their fans, they're really respectful. They are amazingly nice boys considering how much their lives have changed."
Asked if they are working too hard, he replied: "It's very difficult, because when they're in the situation they're in, where literally the whole world wants them to perform, you've got this opportunity in your life, it's very difficult to turn it down. They do get rest periods and they are treated well, but it's a tough job, I'm not going to deny it.
The 54-year-old star hopes people will cut the two boys some slack and appreciate what a great advert for Britain the band are.
He said: "I wouldn't want anyone to think they've really lost the plot or turned into horrible people, because they really haven't.
"Right now we've just got to celebrate the fact that in just three years they're performing at Wembley Stadium, which is mind-blowing."
One Direction play three consecutive dates at London's Wembley Stadium from tonight (06.05.14).

Hadley back to work after 59, to play PGA Tour event
Wednesday, July 17, 2013
Two days after shooting 59 in the opening round of the PGA of Ontario Championship at Deer Ridge Golf Cub in Kitchener, Ontario, Brian Hadley was back at work Wednesday morning.
But it wasn't to work on his golf game. No, it was actual work.
On Tuesday, Hadley fired a 3-under 69 to win the PGA of Ontario Championship for the second straight year, becoming the first back-to-back winner since 2005.
"It's a terrific feeling to win this championship two years in a row," Hadley said. "When I woke up this morning, I just knew I didn't want to be the guy who blew an eight-shot lead after shooting a 59."
A day later, the 32-year-old woke up at 4:30 a.m. and was at Thames Valley Golf Club in London, Ontario, to open up the golf shop at 6 a.m. He works at the club as an assistant pro. He'll open up shop every morning through Sunday.
Then he'll get back on the course, only this time it will be on the PGA Tour.
Hadley won the Ontario regional qualifier for a spot in the PGA Tour's RBC Canadian Open, which will be held next week at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ontario. He expects to have a large gallery of family and friends at the tournament to watch him play, including his wife and son.
"Having my family with me and them watching me play in the Canadian Open is going to be special," Hadley said. "I'm really looking forward to it."

Top-ranked Buckeyes cruise past Penn State
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. If there was one reason Ohio State wouldn't win the Big Ten title and make a return trip to the national championship game this season, it would be the inconsistent play of quarterback Todd Boeckman.
Such was the conventional wisdom of those who have watched the Buckeyes this season and been blown away by a devastating defense but underwhelmed by what seemed to be an underachieving offense.
If there is one reason why Ohio State will win the conference and be in the BCS title game in January it will be the consistent play of quarterback Todd Boeckman.
That was the feeling you came away with after the junior completed 19 of 26 passes for 253 yards and three touchdowns in a 37-17 win over No. 25 Penn State on Saturday night.
It was a virtuoso performance by Boeckman, who showed a confidence and poise that should give those chasing the No. 1 Buckeyes (9-0 overall, 5-0 Big Ten) pause.
"I think the coaches put a great game plan together today," said Boeckman who excelled throwing the deep ball. "I think they saw something with our offense and their defense. You just got to take those shots to back those corners off."
The same guy who lost a fumble and threw an interception that gift-wrapped 14 points for Michigan State a week earlier was cool under fire and came up with clutch throws, no matter how loudly the 110,134 crazies at Beaver Stadium crowed.
"I think he's doing a great job," OSU receiver Brian Hartline said of Boeckman. "I think he's embracing the role. Following a Heisman Trophy guy (Troy Smith) was probably a little difficult at first. But he came into his own and grabbed the attention of the team and he's running with it."
Ohio State quarterback Todd Boeckman. He completed 19 of 26 passes for 253 yards and three touchdowns, showing poise and delivering the ball with zip. The lone blemish on his night was a second-quarter interception.
After Penn State drove 78 yards for a touchdown and a 7-3 lead on its first possession, Ohio State answered immediately, marching 80 yards on six plays to take a lead it would not relinquish. The quick strike was highlighted by a 60-yard completion from Boeckman to Ray Small which temporarily quieted what had been a raucous Nittany Lions crowd.
Penn State's A.J. Wallace returned a kickoff 97 yards with 3:16 left in the game to provide a positive for the Lions and give the Buckeyes something to work on in practice next week.
The Buckeyes retain the top spot in the BCS standings and now own two victories over ranked teams. They must stay the course against Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan to get back to the BCS championship and there is little reason to believe they won't succeed.
The Nittany Lions were hoping for a victory that would return the program to national prominence. Instead they were dominated in front of a national TV audience and will fall hard out of the top 25. Quarterback Anthony Morelli struggled and was pulled in the fourth quarter. Things look bleak in Happy Valley.
Penn State's touchdown on its opening drive marked the first time this season the Ohio State defense allowed first-quarter points. ... Boeckman's 60-yard completion to Small was the longest play allowed by Penn State's defense this season. Ohio State's 91-yard scoring drive in the second quarter was the longest the Penn State defense has allowed this season.
After Penn State took a 7-3 lead on a 2-yard TD run by Rodney Kinlaw at 8:25 of the first, Boeckman calmly led the Buckeyes on a six-play, 80-yard scoring drive culminated by a 9-yard touchdown pass to Brian Robiskie. The biggest play was a 60-yard Boeckman to Ray Small hookup, the quarterback finding his man in stride and out of the reach of Lions defenders.
Boeckman's ability to throw deep has never been in question. But on this night he also delivered crisp passes of varying lengths to open receivers, deftly directing scoring drives, chewing up clock and piling up first downs.
"He threw with good feet and with good velocity on the ball," Buckeyes coach Jim Tressel said. "He made good decisions. He stepped up into the pocket well.
"I think he threw with a lot of confidence tonight and that starts with not having a whole bunch of people in your face."
Ohio State, helped by 133 yards rushing by Chris Wells, controlled the ball for 37:52 and Boeckman and the Buckeyes made good on 12 of 16 third-down conversions. The best might have been a third-and-14 in the second quarter when Boeckman hit Hartline with a 16-yard touchdown pass at 9:53.
Boeckman was brilliant on that possession, leading his team's 15-play, 91-yard march that took 6:26 and seemed to deflate Joe Paterno's charges.
But he wasn't infallible. He was intercepted by Penn State All-American linebacker Dan Connor with 4:57 left in the half, setting the Lions up at their own 41. The Ohio State defense bailed him out and forced Penn State to punt after penetrating to the OSU 38.
"He had the one throw that I think he rushed a little bit and tried to slip it in there instead of throwing with the authority he did all day," Tressel said.
Boeckman plans to learn from the error.
"We had a few mistakes," he said. "I threw a pick and you can't have that. You just gotta keep on improving and hopefully next week we won't have any turnovers and maybe will play a better game."
The Buckeyes, who piled up 453 yards total offense, delivered the knockout punch on their first possession of the second half. Boeckman found Jake Ballard for a 15-yard TD pass with 6:10 left making it 24-7 OSU. Thirteen plays 87 yards, 5:28 elapsed. Game over.
The Nittany Lions (6-3, 3-3) managed a 27-yard field goal by Kevin Kelly with 1:27 left in the third. OSU's Ryan Pretorious countered with a 37-yard field goal, his second of the night, at 9:52 of the fourth. Pretorious, who opened the scoring with a 50-yard boot, tacked on a third, a 35-yarder, with 3:30 remaining in the game.
Malcolm Jenkins' interception and 24-yard return of an Anthony Morelli pass at with 9:36 provided the exclamation point for OSU. The Buckeyes' top-rated defense held Penn State to 263 yards.
Daryll Clark replaced Morelli on the next possession, giving Lions fans something to cheer. They got one more chance to exercise their lungs when A.J. Wallace returned a kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown with 3:16 left, setting the final score.
It was a night to forget for Penn State and Morelli its pilloried quarterback (12 of 21 passing, 111 yards, interception).
At the same time it was Boeckman's finest hour in a burg that has been less than kind to the Buckeyes. With Saturday's victory, OSU is now 3-5 in Happy Valley.
With home games left against Wisconsin and Illinois before the regular-season closing roadie at Michigan, Ohio State hasn't guaranteed itself anything just yet, other than the top spot in the BCS standings for another week. But the win at Penn State did much to silence critics who claimed that the Buckeyes haven't beaten anyone worth a damn.
Or did it?
"We have a nice little four-game season," Hartline said. "This was game one of the four. I'm sure they'll figure out that Penn State wasn't that good. But we'll keep chugging."
Maybe all the way to New Orleans.

Period started..and then stopped again!??
Im just wondering whats going on really ...I only did the deed once this month- last friday. And my period was due to start yesterday- which it did- and then promptly stopped again, now its gone. Ive never had this before- the first day of period is always heavy. What's going on?? is this normal?
Hi Hannah,
It could have been implantation bleeding you were experiencing, if it is you might need to wait a few days to do a pregnancy test because I don't think the hormones start to surge until that egg is well and truly implanted.
I had a similar experience with my first pregnancy, mine lasted a couple of days and was much lighter than my usual period, at first i just thanked my lucky stars for an easy month and then a week later started to get some pregnancy symptoms and tested positive.
I am 13 wks preg now and this time we only did the deed twice in the month we conceived I was equally as doubtful but here I am, so the fact you did it once means nothing, it is still possible.
Good luck, let us know how you get on xx
Last edited by Debbie K(23); 31-10-08 at 18:45.
Hi Debbie,
Thanks for your reply, yes it really does sound like it could be implantation bleeding. It really didnt feel like a period atall- it was very light, hardly anything really. So i will take your advice and test in a couple of days and see whats up...I will let you know!
Hannah it sounds very hopeful, I am crossing my fingers for you x
I couldnt resist doing a test today just in case..but it was negative. How long is the implatation bleeding (if that's what it is) likely to go on for?
Im thinking, it would take a while for a positive result to show, (even though im past my period due date) because i only did the deed 8 days ago..is that true?
Anyway, I remember having several negatives when i was pregnant with my son, didnt get a positive till period was a good 2 weeks late. im just being impatient!!
Hi Hannah,
Are you saying that you DTD once this month - last week - and your period was due the following Thursday i.e. 6 days later? It will really depend on your cycle whether you could be pregnant. How long is it normally? Do you know when you ovulated? Normally you ovulate 14 days before your period is due so for you to be pregnant normally you would have to DTD around that time..
Yes that's what i mean, we did it last friday, and my period was due 6 days later. (3 days ago.) So we did it quite late in my cycle. I seriously didnt think i would get pregnant because it was so late in the month, but then, this weird tiny bit of bleeding thing has happened, and stopped again, so now that's thrown me a bit.
I am really kind of hoping i am pregnant, although we hadnt exactly 100% planned on it- i would be happy about it- and im getting quite attached to the idea...
forgot to say, my usual cycle is around 28 days.
Hannah I am still rooting for you,
I know its not the norm to ovulate a little later than the usual mid cycle but it definitely worked for me. i also know of someone who is going through fertility treatment and they have found her to ovulate only a couple of days before her period comes. We are all different and anything is possible. Its a shame we can't all be like it says in the text books, it would make our lives much less stressful. I didn't mention that it took us 18 months to conceive this time so I really do know what you are going through, month after month you live in hope, you will get there and I am really hoping it is this month for you.
I am not sure exactly how soon a positive would show up after the implantation bleeding so i am going to Google it in a minute.
I have just done a search for when to test after imp bleeding and the recommended amount of time is about a week from when period is due, although the HCG should be building up now if you are preg the average preg test will show pos in about a week though.
I know it is hard to wait xx
Start stop period
This is happening to me quite regularly at the moment. Bleed very lightly, seems to stop, bleed lightly again then stop, then back again. So far though I have found that a week after it starts on and off like that I end up with a super heavy bleed which lasts 4 or 5 days. All tests BFN for me. Spoke to doctor who said it sounds like hormone imbalance and to give it a couple of more cycles to see if it settles down then go back if not. Am going through a very light bleed myself right now, but am expecting the full flood just like my last 2 cycles to eventually come on.
implantation or period
Hi im the same i had,period 16th of august to the 21st then ovulated on the 14th of september a week later i got bleeding started light pink/brown then got heavier brigh red that lasted 6 days now it stopped yesturday from lunch time then started again after i came back from,swimmers my period starts tomorrow had a urine sample and bloods.done got a.neg urine.sample but i kno bloods r better dont no if ive been testes to early or not ive all the.symptoms of pregnancy...

Cultivation and fine manners are nowhere to be found in the foul urban cesspool of William Monahan's "London Boulevard." This palpitating mess of a movie certainly doesn't lack for pungent atmosphere. Chris Menges's cinematography paints the city in shades of smeared lipstick, dried blood and grime. Even in Holland Park, an upscale section of West London, the rooftops and shrubbery are infested with profanity-spewing paparazzi ravenously pursuing Charlotte (Keira Knightley), a sullen movie star on sabbatical from her career. Inside her mansion, in which a priceless Francis Bacon canvas occupies one wall, you still feel under siege from jackals intent on tearing her to pieces. In the words of her effete butler, Jordan (David Thewlis), an agoraphobic, self-described "polymath" and pothead who languishes in her lair, Charlotte is weary of playing victim roles. "If it wasn't for Monica Bellucci," he remarks, "she'd be the most raped actress in European cinema." We are led to believe that Charlotte, while making a film in Italy, actually endured a rape that was covered up. Jordan, a jaded ex-hippie and show business jack of all trades, is the film's most intriguing character. Into this rat's nest steps Mitchel (Colin Farrell), a petty gangster fresh out of prison after serving three years for causing "grievous bodily harm." The stoic, taciturn Mitchel, determined to leave behind the criminal life, auditions for a job as Charlotte's bodyguard and handyman. But the harder he tries to leave the underworld, the more insistently he is badgered to rejoin it. "London Boulevard" fancies itself a hybrid of Billy Wilder's "Sunset Boulevard" and Donald Cammell and Nicolas Roeg's "Performance" moved up to the present. — Stephen Holden

recently purchased the new iphone 4s on O2 i had to transfer my sim to a micro sim and since then the sim hasnt worked properly. I only have a few contacts so far but none of them work to send texts apart from one which is the exact same phone as mine and entered in the iphone field. However there is an older version of the iphone entered also but that doesnt work even though its in the same house as mine -.-
i cant seem to figure this out i live in the UK so the area code stuff is either two things and i have tried both on all of the contacts that dont work and nothing has worked i've even tried removing the area code altogether or setting them as 'other' instead of 'mobile'
the carrier settings is set as automatic and if i turn that off nothing happens :S
have tried taking the sim out and putting it back in
have tried turning the phone off and on
have tried resetting the network
at the start i thought it was O2 because i only had 1 bar which confused me because i could call them with that but it just wont send a text :S HELP
Retrieving data ...

As you mentioned templates, I'm assuming you are working on a Trailer in iMovie (not a standard project). Unfortunately, the templates accept video only - not photos or stills.
A way around this is to convert the Trailer to a standard project. Then you will be able to add stills, and perform other edits as desired.
To convert, select "File > Convert to Project" from the menu. Before doing this, it's best to duplicate the Trailer so that all your original edits are intact in the Trailer format. To duplicate, while in Project Library view, click on the Trailer name then select "File > Duplicate Project" from the menu.
