Pursuing a career in cosmetic dermatology was a way for Lisa R. Ginn to combine her interest in medicine and her passion for beauty products. "I've always had an artistic side and been good with my hands, so it seemed like a great fit," says Ginn. "I also love products. I've thought of myself as a product girl dressed up, playing dermatologist." So Ginn decided to learn everything she could about skin care: "I went and got an aesthetician's license because you don't learn about skin care in [medical] school, and I worked as a medical officer at the Food and Drug Administration's division of cosmetic regulation," she says.
Now, Ginn, who has been a dermatologist for 11 years, practices in Chevy Chase, Maryland, and says that one of the most common skin mistakes she sees among her patients is a tendency to strip protective oils from their skin. "I'm unashamedly biased; I think the skin is the best organ we have, and it asks for so little," says Ginn. "But you do have to invest in it. You could have had problematic skin all your life, and if you find the right person to guide you, you can have great skin in your 40s and beyond."
Here are some of her favorite lessons for keeping your skin in tip-top shape:
Where to spend your money: "Invest in serums. They can be expensive, but they last a long time. Skimp on modestly priced cleansers and moisturizers. You'll get the most dramatic results without really breaking the bank." Ginn likes SkinCeuticals Hydrating B5 Gel serum.
Favorite drugstore find: "Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 55. It's excellent for anyone who hates the feel of SPF on their skin."
Best-kept secret: "The multi-vitamin complex in IS Clinical Poly-Vitamin Serum tones down rosacea—which I use it for—and treats acne. Usually, it's very hard to treat acne on rosacea prone skin, because it gets dry and irritated, and the redness gets worse. But this serum allows me to treat both issues."

Follow us on Facebook and Twitter and www.littleparis.co.uk
If you've know me for a while, you know that I have no problem to do to many things in the same time. This month was one of my busiest months in the shop, and also in my private life. Between a moving in a new home ,
and 2 arts projects to present in Little Paris, the time was avenger. I had very auspicious goals, but I wasn't being realistic about the level of stress that I could endure. What ultimately suffered was my confidence in my hearts, that I could do everything...
Fortunately I was not alone, my husband was there for our move with my children, Marion was there to show the work of Tereza Buskova in Little Paris sister shop in Islington and for the fun idea of the sick bags Presidential 2012, we formed a shock team with Fanny and Marion!
This was really a chaotic period, my daughter was really sick, and of course I was sick to my turn with all this stress - I'm normally much more focused and ready to face the challenges ahead.
I learned the lesson that the creation of the sick bags Presidential 2012 was a good opportunity for me to re put my head ahead.
The idea of the sick bags came one evening over a good meal late March, with some French friends. We looked each other with Marion and we thought, why not ! Use the idea of the sick bags of the Royal weeding from Lydia Leith and turn away with the 4 faces of the most important French politicians from right to left. Lydia Leith followed us and made us beautiful drawings ...
The sick bags Presidentielles arrive in the shop on the 5th of april and the communication was already done to the french journalists on the week end with the extraordinaire work of Fanny Herbecque. And the feedback was really really good.
But I never realised as important it was to find and sell our sick bags to a good distribution network in France. We had a funny idea and a crazy challenge, but too late and without retail networks to represent us in France. But two days later, strangely many images of 2012 Presidential sicks bags were removed from the Google search engine image and many comments from journalists was no longer visible on the net. You said, democracy!
In addition, the store Colette's most trendy shop in Paris refused to have our limited edition of art in her shop, because our art had a political connotation! Of course !
I was not ready for this refusal.But I was so tired myself that I didn't really have the energy to focus on that and find other solution. Fortunately, among our friends, good feedback from the community and French journalists and French in London who love French politic we sell very well. Do not worry you can still buy them if you fancy a little joke to your friends or for your private collection ... (haha).
The last date in the calendar, brings us to Tereza Buskova private view on the 13th april. Oh boy. We've done it, and we've done really well, with Marion in charge of the exhibition, Garry, Fanny, Celine and Chloe, everybody put a huge energy to change this event to a lovely evening with also a star around ( Russel Tovey, shhh ... )
While initially I felt very upset about the art project of the sick bags Presidentielles 2012 , at the heart of it, they were all very good learning experiences for me. I realised what will happen when I let my own thoughts get the best of me—or when I over stress myself. I also realised the value of knowing when to walk away. There is no shame in scratching— Sir Alan Sugar will probably laugh on my naivety ...
Thank you Marion Folli to have worked on all these projects with me and Cedric my husband for being so supportive of me all the time—but especially when I really, really need it.

Do I need to eat more or differently when carrying multiples than if I were pregnant with one baby?
Yes. You'll definitely need more calories than a woman carrying just one baby.
One rule of thumb is to add 300 calories a day for each of your babies. So if you're carrying twins, you should add roughly 600 calories to your normal load, which would probably take you to about 2,800 calories a day. If you're carrying triplets, you'd aim for an extra 900 calories a day, pushing your daily total to about 3,100 calories.
Whether you're carrying twins, triplets, or more, you should plan to eat at least five times a day (three meals and two substantial snacks), even if you don't feel especially hungry.
Of course, not all calories are created equal. Make them count by going easy on sugar and eating a variety of foods packed with the nutrients you need, including protein, carbohydrates, and, yes, fat. Pregnancy is no time for a lean diet.
Cheese, milk, meat, eggs, nuts, and oils will all help fuel your babies' growth. Fill out your diet with lots of fruits and vegetables, and at least ten servings of grains.
How much weight should I gain?
When you're pregnant, counting pounds can be even more important than counting calories. You need to gain plenty of weight to keep your growing babies healthy and nourished.
It's especially important to put on pounds early in the pregnancy — when your babies are developing rapidly and you still have room to fill your stomach.
As a general guideline, a woman carrying twins should gain between 35 and 45 pounds. Women carrying triplets should put on 50 to 60 pounds. Your practitioner can help you set healthy weight goals throughout your pregnancy.
If you were underweight before pregnancy, you'll have to put on extra weight quickly to catch up. If you were overweight before pregnancy, you can probably cut back on your weight goals by a few pounds.
Will I need to take a special kind of prenatal vitamin?
Prenatal vitamins are important, but you don't need a special "twins and triplets" formula. A standard prenatal supplement will do just fine.
A supplement is the best way to ensure that you get vital nutrients such as folic acid, iron, and calcium. Your practitioner can recommend specific brands and doses.
Women carrying more than one baby are at a higher risk for iron-deficiency anemia during pregnancy. Your practitioner will monitor the level of iron in your blood to make sure you're getting enough. If you're not, she may recommend that you take an extra iron supplement.
High doses of iron can sometimes lead to constipation and nausea, so talk to your practitioner about ways to avoid these problems.
How much water do I need to drink?
Even if you're the type of person who never goes anywhere without a water bottle, you'll need to start drinking more water now that you're carrying multiples. It's particularly important to guard against dehydration in the second half of pregnancy, as it can raise your risk of premature labor and early delivery.
Some experts recommend drinking up to a gallon of water — that's 16 8-ounce glasses — each day. You can get some of your fluids from milk and juice, but water should be your go-to beverage.
Of course, you'll be making extra trips to the bathroom, but that will give you an excellent chance to see if you're getting enough water. If your urine has more than a faint hint of color, you need to be drinking more.
How much should I exercise?
If you're a healthy, active woman with twins on the way, you can probably continue to exercise during your pregnancy, as long as your practitioner gives the go-ahead.
Keep it slow, relaxed, and gentle. Your body — and your babies — may not be able to handle intense workouts. Good options include swimming, walking, water aerobics, and prenatal yoga.
Be sure to get plenty of fluids before, during, and after your workout. And no matter what exercise you enjoy, stop immediately if you develop pain, dizziness, or heart palpitations.
Remember that carrying more than one baby is a workout in itself. In fact, you may have to commit yourself to getting extra rest.
Try to cut back on lifting, stooping, bending over, or standing for a long time without a break. With a little ingenuity — and a tall enough stool — you may even find that it's possible to cook dinner while sitting.
In any case, when you reach 24 weeks, it's time to scale back on exercise and put more energy into your babies. At this point, you'll need to limit yourself to an occasional short walk or mellow swim.
If you're carrying triplets or more, you'll want to take it easy throughout your pregnancy. A short walk now and then is probably okay, but don't push yourself.
At some point, your practitioner may even recommend that you stop exercising completely and go on some version of bedrest with the goal of reducing your risk of preterm birth.

Have a comment on this article? Share on Facebook!
By Jose Perez
We all know the mantra…you have to change to survive these days. That said, how many people are stuck in the old paradigms and not doing enough of the right things because they are afraid of upsetting the people around them?
Too many, in my opinion! Let me give you some examples:
- I know companies who are leaving hundreds of thousands of dollars on the table because they are not properly squeezing ROI out of their websites, yet they won't pull the trigger and make changes.
- I know companies who are stuck with too much overhead, yet hesitate to make the necessary reductions.
- I know companies who are aware that they have to recruit the next wave of agents, but are not holding their teams accountable to do so.
- I know companies that tell me a large percentage of their managers don't "get it," yet they are doing nothing to create the bench strength they need to reinvent their firms.
Pam O'Connor, president of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, knows all about changing paradigms. The network she leads—comprised of 550 independent brokerages—has a long history of responding to shifts in the market, in technologies and in consumer preferences. "Certainly change is never easy, but being responsive and adaptive is essential to being a market leader. That has, perhaps, never been truer than it is today," states O'Connor.
The following tips will make the task of promoting paradigm change more manageable:
- Quantify the issues. Nothing is more black and white than knowing how much money not changing is costing you and your agents.
- Do your homework. There is no scarcity of information available regarding consumer expectations and behavior. The more you can do to educate your team, the more justification you will have for making the changes.
- Ease into change. You can't completely reinvent your company overnight. Pick one or two issues and start on those while simultaneously promoting change as good.
As scary as our world has been the past few years, it is also a time for those willing to change and embrace a new paradigm to be leaders and innovators. The greatest fortunes in the history of business have been made in times of dramatic change. This is that time in our industry.
Jose Perez is the founder and chief visionary of PCMS Consulting. PCMS provides innovative solutions leading brokerages require to enhance their market position and profitability.

Chapter 1 - A Voyage of Discovery
The role of the ocean on weather and climate is often discussed in the news. Who has not heard of El Niño and changing weather patterns, the Atlantic hurricane season and storm surges. Yet, what exactly is the role of the ocean? And, why do we care?
1.1 Why study the Physics of the ocean?
The answer depends on our interests, which devolves from our use of the oceans. Three broad themes are important:
These themes influence our selection of topics to study. The topics then determine what we measure, how the measurements are made, and the geographic areas of interest. Some processes are local, such as the breaking of waves on a beach, some are regional, such as the influence of the North Pacific on Alaskan weather, and some are global, such as the influence of the oceans on changing climate and global warming.
If indeed, these reasons for the study of the ocean are important, lets begin a voyage of discovery. Any voyage needs a destination. What is ours?

so...I had a hand-me-down old (loose-ball) headset that came with my old road bike, that got converted, switched to diff bikes, etc.
not untill recently did the pittedness of the races frustrate me as to where I was not being able to adjust my set as I would like....so, I ordered a $5 tange passage to replace...
what a difference a headset (especially a new fork crown race) makes! this is amazing. 's like gliding on ice...riding with no hands is so much easier. I've got it adjusted perfectly and it is smooth and looose, yet with no play whatsoever. amazing. I wonder if chris king's are this smooth.
I like overhauling loose bearing parts tho, and doing a headset is pretty easy, so I think I'll just be trying to do very periodic maintenance. (maybe once a month or few weeks in the winter), especially as I much of the time end up not rocking a fender. and, ****...at $5 a pop, unless there is some quickly degenerative aspect of these, I can't really see myself upgrading. hmm...maybe I'll try the $10 tange levin...lol
anyone else love their loose-ball headsets? how often do you maintain? how long with proper maintenance might I expect this to stay in mint condition? how long have yours lasted?

Cleaning Up Oil Spills with Mushrooms and Hair!
Posted By Yuka Yoneda On April 29, 2010 @ 1:15 pm In Design,Disaster-proof design,Environment,Innovation,Sustainable Materials,Water Issues | 7 Comments
The massive BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has spurred scientists and engineers to consider numerous solutions to clean up the slick — from erecting a giant underwater dome [2] to contain the spill to setting it on fire (update: according to the Washington Post [3], it looks like the Coast Guard is going ahead with their plan to set the oil spill ablaze). But what if the slick could be cleaned up in a way that is totally organic? One very unusual solution calls for the use of mushrooms and hair [1] (yes, mushrooms and hair) to absorb the oil. The technique is tried and true — it was actually used in the Cosco Busan oil spill of '07 [1]!

The Most Doomed Part of Spain, in 2 Charts
This is what a lost generation looks like
This is what a lost generation looks like
"A typical person is more than five times as likely to die in an extinction event as in a car crash," says a new report.
Nuclear war. Climate change. Pandemics that kill tens of millions.
These are the most viable threats to globally organized civilization. They're the stuff of nightmares and blockbusters—but unlike sea monsters or zombie viruses, they're real, part of the calculus that political leaders consider everyday. And according to a new report from the U.K.-based Global Challenges Foundation, they're much more likely than we might think.
In its annual report on "global catastrophic risk," the nonprofit debuted a startling statistic: Across the span of their lives, the average American is more than five times likelier to die during a human-extinction event than in a car crash.
Partly that's because the average person will probably not die in an automobile accident. Every year, one in 9,395 people die in a crash; that translates to about a 0.01 percent chance per year. But that chance compounds over the course of a lifetime. At life-long scales, one in 120 Americans die in an accident.
It's a paradox: Shouldn't the most accomplished be well equipped to make choices that maximize life satisfaction?
There are three things, once one's basic needs are satisfied, that academic literature points to as the ingredients for happiness: having meaningful social relationships, being good at whatever it is one spends one's days doing, and having the freedom to make life decisions independently.
But research into happiness has also yielded something a little less obvious: Being better educated, richer, or more accomplished doesn't do much to predict whether someone will be happy. In fact, it might mean someone is less likely to be satisfied with life.
That second finding is the puzzle that Raj Raghunathan, a professor of marketing at The University of Texas at Austin's McCombs School of Business, tries to make sense of in his recent book, If You're So Smart, Why Aren't You Happy? Raghunathan's writing does fall under the category of self-help (with all of the pep talks and progress worksheets that that entails), but his commitment to scientific research serves as ballast for the genre's more glib tendencies.
A professor of cognitive science argues that the world is nothing like the one we experience through our senses.
As we go about our daily lives, we tend to assume that our perceptions—sights, sounds, textures, tastes—are an accurate portrayal of the real world. Sure, when we stop and think about it—or when we find ourselves fooled by a perceptual illusion—we realize with a jolt that what we perceive is never the world directly, but rather our brain's best guess at what that world is like, a kind of internal simulation of an external reality. Still, we bank on the fact that our simulation is a reasonably decent one. If it wasn't, wouldn't evolution have weeded us out by now? The true reality might be forever beyond our reach, but surely our senses give us at least an inkling of what it's really like.
Nearly half of Americans would have trouble finding $400 to pay for an emergency. I'm one of them.
Since 2013, the Federal Reserve Board has conducted a survey to "monitor the financial and economic status of American consumers." Most of the data in the latest survey, frankly, are less than earth-shattering: 49 percent of part-time workers would prefer to work more hours at their current wage; 29 percent of Americans expect to earn a higher income in the coming year; 43 percent of homeowners who have owned their home for at least a year believe its value has increased. But the answer to one question was astonishing. The Fed asked respondents how they would pay for a $400 emergency. The answer: 47 percent of respondents said that either they would cover the expense by borrowing or selling something, or they would not be able to come up with the $400 at all. Four hundred dollars! Who knew?
A financial check-in with the Gilded Age's richest families, several generations later
According to Time magazine, 90 percent of all rich families, from the Astors to the Ziffs, lose their fortunes by the third generation. This is remarkable, considering how comparatively easy it is to retain wealth once you have it. A recent analysis suggested that Donald Trump, for example, could be similarly wealthy if he had done nothing but put his eight-figure inheritance into the stock market: "If he'd invested the $200 million that Forbes magazine determined he was worth in 1982 into that index fund, it would have grown to more than $8 billion today."
Conversely, climbing several rungs on the income ladder takes ingenuity, grit, resilience, opportunity, and a heaping tablespoon of luck. Currently, poor children have only a 7.5 percent chance of making it even to the top 20th percentile as adults. Making money is hard; holding onto money when you're born with it shouldn't be.
That's not a harsh assessment. It's just a fair description.
Millennial politics is simple, really. Young people support big government, unless it costs any more money. They're for smaller government, unless budget cuts scratch a program they've heard of. They'd like Washington to fix everything, just so long as it doesn't run anything.
That's all from a new Reason Foundation poll surveying 2,000 young adults between the ages of 18 and 29. Millennials' political views are, at best, in a stage of constant metamorphosis and, at worst, "totally incoherent," as Dylan Matthews puts it.
It's not just the Reason Foundation. In March, Pew came out with a similar survey of Millennial attitudes that offered another smorgasbord of paradoxes:
The U.S. president talks through his hardest decisions about America's role in the world.
Friday, August 30, 2013, the day the feckless Barack Obama brought to a premature end America's reign as the world's sole indispensable superpower—or, alternatively, the day the sagacious Barack Obama peered into the Middle Eastern abyss and stepped back from the consuming void—began with a thundering speech given on Obama's behalf by his secretary of state, John Kerry, in Washington, D.C. The subject of Kerry's uncharacteristically Churchillian remarks, delivered in the Treaty Room at the State Department, was the gassing of civilians by the president of Syria, Bashar al-Assad.
We can all agree that Millennials are the worst. But what is a Millennial? A fight between The New York Times and Slate inspired us to try and figure that out.
We can all agree that Millennials are the worst. But what is a Millennial? A fight between The New York Times and Slate inspired us to try and figure that out.
After the Times ran a column giving employers tips on how to deal with Millennials (for example, they need regular naps) (I didn't read the article; that's from my experience), Slate's Amanda Hess pointed out that the examples the Times used to demonstrate their points weren't actually Millennials. Some of the people quoted in the article were as old as 37, which was considered elderly only 5,000 short years ago.
The age of employees of The Wire, the humble website you are currently reading, varies widely, meaning that we too have in the past wondered where the boundaries for the various generations were drawn. Is a 37-year-old who gets text-message condolences from her friends a Millennial by virtue of her behavior? Or is she some other generation, because she was born super long ago? (Sorry, 37-year-old Rebecca Soffer who is a friend of a friend of mine and who I met once! You're not actually that old!) Since The Wire is committed to Broadening Human Understanding™, I decided to find out where generational boundaries are drawn.
When people see themselves as self-made, they tend to be less generous and public-spirited.
I'm a lucky man. Perhaps the most extreme example of my considerable good fortune occurred one chilly Ithaca morning in November 2007, while I was playing tennis with my longtime friend and collaborator, the Cornell psychologist Tom Gilovich. He later told me that early in the second set, I complained of feeling nauseated. The next thing he knew, I was lying motionless on the court.
He yelled for someone to call 911, and then started pounding on my chest—something he'd seen many times in movies but had never been trained to do. He got a cough out of me, but seconds later I was again motionless with no pulse. Very shortly, an ambulance showed up.
Ithaca's ambulances are dispatched from the other side of town, more than five miles away. How did this one arrive so quickly? By happenstance, just before I collapsed, ambulances had been dispatched to two separate auto accidents close to the tennis center. Since one of them involved no serious injuries, an ambulance was able to peel off and travel just a few hundred yards to me. EMTs put electric paddles on my chest and rushed me to our local hospital. There, I was loaded onto a helicopter and flown to a larger hospital in Pennsylvania, where I was placed on ice overnight.
The Islamic State is no mere collection of psychopaths. It is a religious group with carefully considered beliefs, among them that it is a key agent of the coming apocalypse. Here's what that means for its strategy—and for how to stop it.
What is the Islamic State?
Where did it come from, and what are its intentions? The simplicity of these questions can be deceiving, and few Western leaders seem to know the answers. In December, The New York Times published confidential comments by Major General Michael K. Nagata, the Special Operations commander for the United States in the Middle East, admitting that he had hardly begun figuring out the Islamic State's appeal. "We have not defeated the idea," he said. "We do not even understand the idea." In the past year, President Obama has referred to the Islamic State, variously, as "not Islamic" and as al-Qaeda's "jayvee team," statements that reflected confusion about the group, and may have contributed to significant strategic errors.
From a moral standpoint, it makes the world worse.
A rock monster tries to save a village from destruction.
Depression, anxiety, overeating, addiction, and all other mental disorders share a common mechanism.

CHICAGO — Feeling the pinch of the sluggish economy, many Americans setting out on the annual Thanksgiving migration sacrificed summer vacations, relied on relatives for airfare or scoured the Web for travel deals to ensure they made it home.
Airlines struggling to save on jet fuel and other expenses have cut the number of flights, leading to a jump in airfares. Those hitting the roads face high gas prices and rising tolls. Many travelers said they're accepting that sacrifices for pricy holiday journeys have become the norm.
"You become immune to it, I guess," said Chris Zukowski, 43, a locomotive engineer from the Chicago suburb of Huntley, as he lamented he could not afford to join his wife and three children on the trip to New Jersey.

Weather also upset some travel plans. Dense fog in the Chicago area contributed to the cancellation of nearly 200 flights at the city's two airports Wednesday morning, according to flightstats.com.
About 43.6 million Americans were expected to journey 50 miles or more between Wednesday and Sunday, a 0.7 percent increase from last year, according to AAA's yearly Thanksgiving travel analysis.
More people are driving, fewer are flying, and the average distance traveled was expected to be nearly 17 percent — or about 120 miles — shorter than a year ago, it said.

Around 5:45 Saturday night a shooting on Wakulla Springs Road was reported to the Leon County Sheriff's Office.
Witnesses told deputies they saw 44-year-old Alvin Sharp fire at 27-year-old Kevin Ratliff several times. Deputies say Sharp then fled the area on foot.
"So we brought out several units, set up a perimeter, brought out the helicopter, K-9 units and after a search, one of our units saw a man on the side of the road," explained LT Rory Robbins.
That man on Oakridge Road was suspect Sharp, who turned himself in to the deputy. The victim was taken to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital and is listed in stable condition.

The History Fair of the 200_ school year is just around the corner and the teachers at Jahn School would like to make this year's one of the best. Here at Jahn we are working very hard to make sure our students can achieve all that they are capable of. We can provide them with a portion of the information and resources they need to complete a successful project, though we cannot give them everything. Therefore, we ask for your assistance. We need you, at home, to help with a variety of tasks, all to enable your child to do the best he or she can. This may include taking your child to the local, regional or downtown library as needed (you may have to a few times so that your child can find all the information for the project), visit museums or other fine cultural institutions in the city, or even travel to a specific business or organization so your child may interview someone. In any case, we are hoping that you will do all you can to help your child with his or her project. Your child and the staff at Jahn thank you for your support.
If you would like to contribute even more than this, you may contact Jahn School any time you please at 773-534-5500. The coordinating teachers are Ms. Tracey Pinter of the 6th grade and Mr. Merel of the 7th and 8th grades. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

(will you create an exhibit? Is a live performance a better vehicle to tell the story? Is a computer project appropriate? Would a research paper be the best route to take to tell the story you want to tell?)
***See History Fair Handbook, pp. 10-12
Describe your initial ideas about that medium: (Will the exhibit have three panels? Will the video be documentary in style? Does the live performance need more than two or three actors? Is the Historical Voices category a possibility? Will the paper have an appendix of documents, visuals, etc.?)
December 17-21 25 points
VI. Your teacher will return your written proposal, with suggestions, so that you can begin to work.

Have key pieces of evidence been located? What are those key pieces?
What institutions have you visited, contacted, found useful?
What new sources must you pursue to continue your research?)

January 14 - 18
IX. Your Teachers will return your Project Update with comments, suggestions.
January 21 - 25 50 points
X. Annotated Bibliography - first draft
** See History Fair Handbook, pp. 29 - 39
A. In proper form, list the sources, the institutions, the interview, etc., that have provided the basis for your research thus far.

C. See annotation style;
**History Fair Handbook, pp. 40 - 43
January 28 - February 1 50 points
XI. Final Project Update
(Again, three paragraphs should serve you well)
A. Conclusions

B. Research
('What key pieces of evidence support your conclusions?
Have you used a variety of sources to address the question/problems posed by your thesis?
Did you consult sources in more than one institution?
Are the sources listed in your bibliography reflected in your project?

What sources(s) were the most effective in establishing these conclusions?
What new question (s) has emerged at this point in your research process?
Have you linked your local, family, community history topic with the larger historical themes of Illinois, the United States or maybe even World History?)
C. The Project
(Describe the layout of your exhibit - design, color scheme, pizzazz factors, focal point, etc. Outline the script that you have written for your performance.
What backdrops, props, individuals ate involved in this performance?
Outline the paper you have written.

GOSHEN – North Oldham's Greg Billows won the regional heavyweight wrestling title Saturday, but the key to the win may have come a week earlier in the Mustang Invitational.
In the Mustang, Billows, a senior, defeated nemesis Andrew Avery of Oldham County for the first time in a long time. Billows shut Avery out 8-0 in the regional finals to take his first ever regional title.

The rise and fall of quicksand.
The fourth-graders were unanimous: Quicksand doesn't scare them, not one bit. If you're a 9- or 10-year-old at the P.S. 29 elementary school in Brooklyn, N.Y., you've got more pressing concerns: Dragons. Monsters. Big waves at the beach that might separate a girl from her mother. Thirty years ago, quicksand might have sprung up at recess, in pools of discolored asphalt or the dusty corners of the sandbox—step in the wrong place, and you'd die. But not anymore, a boy named Zayd tells me. "I think people used to be afraid of it," he says. His classmates nod. "It was before we were born," explains Owen. "Maybe it will come back one day."
For now, quicksand has all but evaporated from American entertainment—rejected even by the genre directors who once found it indispensable. There isn't any in this summer's fantasy blockbuster Prince of Persia: Sands of Time or in last year's animated jungle romp Up. You won't find quicksand in The Last Airbender or Avatar, either. Giant scorpions emerge from the sand in Clash of the Titans, but no one gets sucked under. And what about Lost—a tropical-island adventure series replete with mud ponds and dangling vines? That show, which ended in May, spanned six seasons and roughly 85 hours of television airtime—all without a single step into quicksand. "We were a little bit concerned that it would just be cheesy," says the show's Emmy-winning writer and executive producer, Carlton Cuse. "It felt too clichéd. It felt old-fashioned."
Quicksand once offered filmmakers a simple recipe for excitement: A pool of water, thickened with oatmeal, sprinkled over the top with wine corks. It was, in its purest form, a plot device unburdened by character, motivation, or story: My god, we're sinking! Will we escape this life-threatening situation before time runs out? Those who weren't rescued simply vanished from the script: It's too late—he's gone.
The alternative was no less random: Surviving quicksand has always required more serendipity than skill. Is that a lasso over there? A tendril from a banyan tree? Cuse throws up his hands at the thought. "Adventure storytelling has to evolve," he says. "People use up gags. If you're working in an old genre, you have to figure out ways to make it fresh." He cites the trash compactor scene in Star Wars as the last major innovation in quicksand cinema: The heroes are standing in muck, but the danger has been transposed from the vertical to the horizontal—it's not sinking; it's crushing. A full generation has elapsed since that evolutionary step was taken in 1977. "I love love love adventure gags," Cuse assures me, "but the best years of quicksand are in the past."
Such truisms sidestep a deeper, stickier question: Why does one gag fall by the wayside while another soldiers on? Movie villains have long since given up tying their victims to the railroad tracks, yet they never seem to weary of planting time bombs. (Think how many colored wires were snipped in The Hurt Locker.) And quicksand? Time was, a director could sink a man in the desert and still win the Oscar for best picture. Today, that gimmick has been scorned in third-rate schlock.
Whatever its Q score, quicksand has always been more than a popcorn-spilling antic. As a literary metaphor and an expression of entanglement, the image dates back hundreds of years. As rhetoric, it once ruled the foreign-policy debate: Vietnam was "the quicksand war" before it was a quagmire; half a million troops were mired in the jungles of southeast Asia, swallowed up by a plot device of the Cold War. And it wasn't so long ago that the phenomenon of real quicksand—not the metaphor, not the gag—flummoxed the nation's leading physicists. Could all these anxieties be related? Might our fascination with quicksand reflect some more singular preoccupation—a broad cultural reckoning, even—with ambivalence and instability?
Before we can answer those questions, let's pinpoint when quicksand's status began to falter. Carlton Cuse, the longtime television producer, offers a clue. He didn't write any quicksand into Lost, but he did put some in another show, years earlier. In the seventh week of the first season of The Adventures of Brisco County Jr., the title character is captured by a Wild West pirate and thrown in a pool of sinking mud. So there you have it: For one pop-culture professional, at least, the gag still had its mojo back in October 1993. By the time the Lost pilot was aired in the fall of 2004, it had disappeared.
Why did quicksand slip below the surface?
One day in late February 1995, a 32-year-old electronics sales associate named Duncan Edwards was sitting at a computer in Dallas running keywords through a Usenet search. A moment later, he found himself staring at a primitive home page with bright yellow wallpaper. At its center was a pixilated graphic—a clip-art collage—showing a stand of cattails and a white pith helmet floating in a pool of sludge. The name of the site appeared just above: The Quicksand! Page.
"My heart pounded … I very nearly fainted," says Edwards, recalling that first visit. "I didn't sleep for the next three days."
He'd stumbled across an online community of quicksand enthusiasts—kindred spirits, it turns out. Some were "sinkers": Those who crave the sensation of being mired in deep mud, the suction that's created when you step into water-logged clay. The stories they post to the group message boards—which have flourished over the past 15 years— suggest a shared spirit of adventure. Last summer, one quicksand fan set up a collaborative Google map for sinking holes, which now has more than 100 sites marked around the world—from the tidal muds near San Diego, Calif., to the loamy bogs of Finland. (Holes are assigned a score from 1 to 10, depending on amenities like privacy, depth, thickness, and available parking.)

If you're a fan of hazy, reverb-heavy, retro girl-group punk, then 2010 must make you feel like you died and went to heaven. Between the Vivian Girls and Dum Dum Girls, this is like some kind of weird renaissance for gal-fronted indie rock bands. And Best Coast might be the best of all the newcomers.
Fronted by California girl, Bethany Cosentino, Best Coast put out a series of singles in 2009, all of which painted a musical picture of a Golden State fantasy. Bringing to mind everything from the Beach Boys to the B-52s to the Ronettes, as well as '90s female faves like The Breeders and Liz Phair, Best Coast's sound is fuzzy in production and pristine in melody.
Watch a beautiful, fan-made video for Best Coast's possibly best song, "When I'm With You," below, and meet the band and watch them perform "Crazy" and "When I Am With You" on Pitchfork (warning: some NSFW language). You can hear more music and get tour dates over at their MySpace. And we PRAY that Ronald McDonald really does star in their upcoming video.

- Abstract
- Long-slit spectra have been obtained with the Keck telescope for a sample of 11 early-type galaxies covering a range in luminosity. Rotation velocity and velocity dispersions, together with 20 Lick line-strength gradients have been measured to two effective radius. We transform line-strength gradients into age, metallicity and α/Fe. Galaxies show very shallow age gradients, strong metallicity gradients, and both positive and negative α/Fe gradients, which cannot be explained with simple outside-in scenarios of galaxy formation. We explore the correlation of the gradients with other global parameters of the galaxies, finding different behaviour for the two families of galaxies, luminous (boxy, core inner profile) and less luminous (disky, cuspy inner profile) galaxies.

PhotoQ 1.9 and iQ2 1.3 for WordPress 3.0
New versions for both PhotoQ and iQ2 are now available for download. If you use both PhotoQ and iQ2, please update both at the same time.
As already explained in the post on its beta version, here is what's new in PhotoQ 1.9b:
- *** New requirements: PhotoQ 1.9b needs at least PHP 5.1.2 to run. In particular: PHP 4 is no longer supported. *** If your current site runs on PHP 4, switching to PHP 5 is usually a matter of simply adding a line or two to your .htaccess file. Please contact your webhost for details.
- All of these known bugs should now be fixed.
- PhotoQ is now able to read IPTC metadata in addition to EXIF. (IPTC tags are treated the same as EXIF tags, so they also show up under "Choose Exif Tags" in the PhotoQ EXIF settings.)
- There seems to be a high demand to get the post date from EXIF. PhotoQ is now able to do so. (new setting under "Further Options")
- WPMU support was dropped in favor of the new WordPress 3 networks. (should work pretty much the same as WPMU, so the same instructions apply)
- Huge parts of the code have been rewritten with not many classes that remained untouched. Although this is the biggest change of all, it should be mostly transparent to the user. Major refactorings like this will most probably continue for the next few versions: I hope to end up with a cleaner, stabler and more versatile code base enabling many new features for version 2.0.
More details and an explanation of all the features can be found in the PhotoQ Documentation and on the iQ2 theme page. Please post any support questions or bug reports on the forum and not as comments to a blog post.
Finally, I decided to give GlotPress a try. Thanks to this wonderful tool, everyone can now easily contribute to translating PhotoQ and iQ2 at the following URL: http://www.whoismanu.com/translate/ . To log in, you use the same credentials as for the forum. If you don't have an account on the forum yet, you can register at http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ . A registration also allows you to directly download the latest language .po files. If you feel highly motivated and want to become a validator for a specific language (preferably your mother tongue), please let me know (Note that you can contribute without being a validator). If you want to contribute to a translation in a language that is not listed on the page, please let me know and I will add it.
So, now it is your turn. I am happy about any contributions I can get. Even if you only translate one single line, you help to bring this project forward. It is really not difficult and pretty self explanatory. If you nevertheless feel that you need more information, I suggest that you read the "Getting Started Guide" at wordpress.org to get a short introduction to GlotPress. More general information on translating WordPress can be found in the codex.
Don thinks:
Hi Manu,
Great theme and plugin. I'm going to use it for a friend real soon! I'm testing it local right now.
One question, are you using a plugin for the comments, or did you write it yourself? I also really like the numbering and the build with the alternating colors. Please let me know how to build use your comment section.

Hopefully, Brian McKnight has put his more salacious musical days behind him. After the uproar of his new infamous song about, well, a woman's private parts, he's moved on to release a new CD, "More than Words," which promises a return to the sultry ballads that are more his style. The first track "Sweeter" and the title track is a return for form for McKnight, finding him at his loverman best. However, McKnight hasn't folded up his freak flag just yet – he's also got a song called "Ididntreallymeantoturnyouout" and another called "Front, The Back, The Side." McKnight says his more controversial record was told from the point of view of a women's vibrator and won't be included on his new CD, although it's still available on iTunes.
"21 years have passed since the first album and I'm still trippin' on that but I'm here," Mc Knight told the Tom Joyner Morning Show this morning. "I thank you so much for the support."
"More than Words" is McKnight's 15th CD. Although he's sold over 200 million CD's worldwide over two decades, he's part of the wrong side of a Grammy distinction – 16 nominations with now wins. (On the hip-hop side, Nas is another deserving empty-handed multi-nominee with 13 nods.) Could this new release be the charm? Only Grammy voters know.
McKnight is also appearing in Hinton Battle's "Love Lies" gospel play that also stars Angie Stone, Elise Neal and Crystal Aikin. In the play, McKnight plays Harrison Brown, a man who is engaged to three different women. The women find out about his lies at Brown's funeral and each of them, in spite of the situation, learns and grows from it.

It has been reported that Ursula K. LeGuin granted Studio Ghibli the rights to her EARTHSEA series largely based on her love for Hayao Miyzaki's work. When Miyazaki was not available to direct the film, the studio hired his son Goro instead. Hayao publicly said his son was not ready to write and direct his first feature film. They should have listened to the master.
It has been reported that Ursula K. LeGuin granted Studio Ghibli the rights to her EARTHSEA series largely based on her love for Hayao Miyzaki's work. When Miyazaki was not available to direct the film, the studio hired his son Goro instead. Hayao publicly said his son was not ready to write and direct his first feature film. They should have listened to the master.
The land of Earthsea is out of balance. Dragons have been spotted over the sea. The King walks to his study and is stabbed by a young man who turns out to be his son Prince Arren (Matt Levin, BLADES OF GLORY). Arren flees and winds up in the desert where he meets the Archmage Sparrowhawk (Timothy Dalton, HOT FUZZ), who takes the young man under this wing. When they arrive at the city of Hortown, Arren has a run in with slaver traders led by Hare (Cheech Marin, FROM DUSK TILL DAWN), who try to enslave the scared young woman Therru (Blaire Restaneo), who is the ward of Sparrowhawk's old friend Tenar (Mariska Hargitay, TV's LAW & ORDER: SVU), a former witch. Sparrowhawk soon learns that the evil wizard Cob (Willem Dafoe, ANTI-CHRIST) is behind the turmoil in Earthsea. The male wizard who looks like Cher needs Arren to obtain immortality.
My description does its best to make sense of this slog of a tale. While it's good to keep secrets to have them revealed latter, this film hides key information about the rules of its world. Dragons are compelling because they're dragons. This film introduces them at the start like they will play a key role and then abandons them for most of the rest of the film. Wizards and witches have lost their powers for some reason, but it's never explained. How Arren figures into Cob's plot is vague at best. And there is something important about knowing someone's real name, but that's never even addressed until the plot all of sudden makes it seem like its important. The film really feels like a sequel where you should have seen the preceding entry.
Arren's savage act is compelling, but he's pursued by some supernatural presence that is hardly explained and one wonders whether forces out of his control drove his actions or whether his profound sadness drove him mad. With such a solemn central character, the overall film becomes LORD OF THE RINGS filtered through an EMO kid's diary. There is a lot of talking and explaining and crying. Even in a tense moment where Sparrowhawk and Arren are in Cob's lair, the action stops for a grand speech about life and death. Um, the bad guys are just going to stand around and let you discuss philosophy?
Technically the film is sloppy. Whether it's a problem with the English dub or the original film I'm not sure, but the dialogue is often redundant. Characters say something like "He wants me to follow him" as the character begins to follow the person. Because the storytelling leaves us so disoriented, moments that aren't supposed to be funny elicit laughs. Music swells to celebrate the introduction of Sparrowhawk, but at that point we don't know him from Adam. The story completely lacks all intentional comic relief, which could have helped a little with pacing. Outside of Sparrowhawk and Cob, the character design is generic, which creates confusion in wondering if two separate characters were really one and the same.
The best part of the film is Cob. Dafoe's voice work is perfect. The character designs for the shape-shifting character are unique and unsettling. And while the details are muddy, at least his motivations are made clear.
While one can see the influence Hayao Miyzaki's work — especially PRINCESS MONONOKE — had on his son, Goro lacks the characterization, timing and whimsical touch of his father. As with any Ghibli project there is some great acting moments and beautiful art to be seen, but the story has been completely lost in translation.

Are you perchance creating clients repeatedly? If at all possible, continue to use the same client for the duration of the process. Creating a client opens several socket connections to speak to the cluster, and if they are not properly cleaned up, then your fd count will obviously rise. Deleting a client *should* close all its sockets, but that assumes you have actually cleared all references to it (not always an easy task, especially in an interactive IPython session). Client.close() will explicitly close all of its sockets. -MinRK On Jan 7, 2012, at 16:00, Erik Petigura <email@example.com> wrote: > Dear IPython, > > I've been running code on 8 engines via: > > ipcluster start --n=8 > > The code ran for a while, but then it died with: > > ERROR: Internal Python error in the inspect module. > Below is the traceback from this internal error. > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/site-packages/IPython/core/ultratb.py", line 750, in structured_traceback > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/site-packages/IPython/core/ultratb.py", line 232, in _fixed_getinnerframes > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/inspect.py", line 1041, in getinnerframes > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/inspect.py", line 1001, in getframeinfo > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/inspect.py", line 456, in getsourcefile > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/inspect.py", line 485, in getmodule > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/inspect.py", line 469, in getabsfile > File "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.1/lib/python2.7/posixpath.py", line 347, in abspath > OSError: [Errno 24] Too many open files > > I increased the limits on the number of open files from 256 to: > > [537][/Users/petigura]$ launchctl limit maxfiles > maxfiles 1000000 1000000 > > My code ran longer but died.
