There's No Crying In Pilots
The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead.
Todd VanDerWerff at the A.V. Club is in the process of reviewing the 2001 HBO miniseries Band of Brothers. Episodes reviewed so far: Currahee --- Day of Days --- Carentan --- Replacements --- Crossroads --- Bastogne.

The Silence of the Fannibals
NBC's Hannibal is the subject of significant critical acclaim as its second season draws near to conclusion, with many describing it as the best show on TV. It's been called better than True Detective, better than American Horror Story and The Walking Dead, and even better than The Silence of the Lambs. However, despite the confidence of the show's creator in a renewal, the show's fate on NBC is in question due to low ratings. [more inside]

Orson Wells' 1955 Podcast
The BBC put together a series of television commentaries from Orson Welles, "Orson Wells' Sketchbook" none of which need more than his then slightly unfamiliar face (without, he underscores, the usual false nose he wears for roles), his unmistakable voice, and his illustrations — taken, literally, from his sketchbook. In these six fifteen-minute broadcasts, which originally aired in 1955, Welles talks about not just the inauspicious beginnings of his illustrious working life but his experiences with the critics, the police, John Barrymore and Harry Houdini, the infamous radio production of War of the Worlds , and bullfighting Playlist here.
Branding Nick at Nite
"Knowing we are watching something that doesn't fit in today's world and being completely self-conscious about our enjoyment of it is the essence of Nick-At-Nites's appeal." Fascinating memo from 1987 about Nick at Nite's brand and positioning. [more inside]
"Here's a tape of our little visit."
In 2000, Conan O'Brien taped a comedy segment at the NYC offices of Foote, Cone & Belding. The premise: take a chainsaw-wielding furniture huckster from Texas, and try to turn him into a star using a top-tier ad campaign. In the segment, Conan is introduced to a team of FCB copywriters, who dutifully come up with an appropriately ridiculous TV ad.
The segment went as planned; Just another remote for Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Little did he know where it would lead. Conan and one of the on-camera copywriters took a shine to each other, and stayed in touch. Two years later, Conan O'Brien and Liza Powel were married. Today they live in Hollywood with their two kids.
In a 2012 interview, Conan told CNN's Piers Morgan: "Somewhere, in the vault at NBC, there's footage of me literally falling for my wife on camera."
Roll the tape.

you have to be venerated to be satirized
The Mike Judge HBO series Silicon Valley premiered last night. The AV club calls it "incisive satire" (while comparing it [favorably] to Entourage). Some people in the real Silicon Valley are not happy about it. Maybe Silicon Valley will have the last laugh: HBO has put the first full episode on youtube.com.

Are you a fan of inventive, black-humored sci-fi/fantasy animation? Desperate to fill the Futurama-shaped hole in your heart? Look no further than Rick and Morty, the superb new Adult Swim series from animator Justin "Lemongrab" Roiland and Community darling Dan Harmon. Inspired by a (terrible and very NSFW) Back To The Future knock-off, the show pairs a naïve young teen (Morty) with his cynical, alcoholic, mad scientist grandfather (Rick), each episode exploring a trope -- dreams, aliens, innerspace, parallel universes, virtual reality -- and turning it inside-out with intricate plotting, eye-catching art, and dark, whipsmart humor (with plenty of improvisation along the way). A ratings hit already secured for a second season, the show returns from an Olympics-induced hiatus tomorrow -- in the meantime, why not sample the six episodes aired so far: Pilot - Lawnmower Dog - Anatomy Park - M. Night Shaym-Aliens! - Meeseeks and Destroy - Rick Potion #9. Want more?

The Brie People
Normalizing torture
"Fringe is a modern reincarnation of the X-Files. . . However one major difference that jumps out when you compare them is the huge amount of torture that happens in Fringe compared to the X-Files . . . Everywhere you see it it promotes the lie that torture works."
Down with this sort of thing
The Yellow King
HBO's controversial new True Detective series has sparked a renewed interest in an unlikely subject: an 1895 book called The King In Yellow. Praised by H. P. Lovecraft, the book is a collection of short stories in which a play called The King In Yellow is somehow involved. A play, which, in an alternate world, "could not be judged by any known standard" but in which it was "acknowledged that the supreme note of art had been struck" leaves its readers changed, and perhaps insane. It's inspired other authors (and the occasional imitator) ever since, and you can read it for yourself in your browser or, still free, on your e-reader. True Detective's bleak world view and story of lives tinged with madness fits right in, whether the mythology eventually pans out in the series or not.
Fawlty Towers without the Fawltys
John Cleese: "I remember at a party I met these chaps from Viacom, who said they were working on a new Fawlty Towers. My ears pricked up at the sound of cash registers and said, 'That's wonderful, are you going to change anything?'. They said, 'Well we have changed one thing, we've written Basil out'. And that's absolutely true, they took Basil and Sybil's lines and gave them all to Bea Arthur." The resulting effort was a 1983 ABC series called Amanda's By the Sea which could charitably be described as a fiasco. [more inside]

For information about Interlibrary Loan, contact Grace Wallace or another library staff member at (252) 985-5350!
What is ILL?
Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a free service for all currently enrolled students, as well as college faculty and staff. ILL provides access to thousands of other library collections across the United States that contain books, journal articles, videos, and other kinds of materials. If there is any book, article, or video that Pearsall Library does not own, you can request that we order it for you using our online ILL request form. We will then contact other libraries who own the requested material and provide you with a book, video, or photocopy of an article that you can use. We do not extend interlibrary loan services to public borrowers except in unusual circumstances.
How long does it take?
Approximately 4 to 8 business days.
Turn-around time depends on a number of factors, some of which include:
- Accuracy and completeness of your citation.
- Currency of the material - Newer, more popular items are harder to obtain.
- Availability - The ILL office directs the request to several possible lenders, each of which has four days to respond before the request is passed on to the next lender.
- Lender Conditions - Some libraries may not circulate requested items, or copy them due to fragility, copyright laws, or license agreements.
- Distance - If an item is not available nearby, ILL may need to request it from another state, or even another country.
Who can use ILL?
- Students, faculty, and staff at the Rocky Mount campus who need items that are not in the NCWC library collection.
- Students, faculty, and staff at Wesleyan's distance campuses who need items from the Pearsall Library or from other academic libraries. Users at our campuses in Brunswick, Greenville, Manteo, Washington, Whiteville, and Wilmington should first check with the library at the community college hosting our campus to see whether they have the needed resources.
ILL Tips
- If you are in Rocky Mount, please check the library catalog to make sure Wesleyan does not own the item before making a request.
- Please do not use abbreviations for titles.
- Please proofread your request for spelling and accurate citation information.Please submit a separate form for each request.
- Students and faculty in Rocky Mount should pick up and return interlibrary loans to Grace Wallace in the library. Faculty and students from Goldsboro or RTP campuses should return materials to the instructional branch or mail them to the main campus using the mailing label that is provided. Articles need not be returned; they are yours to keep.
Return your materials by the due date. If you need to renew a book or video received through ILL, contact Grace Wallace at least two (2) days before the due date to request a renewal. If materials are not returned on time you may be charged an overdue fee. You are responsible for any fines incurred for late returns or lost or damaged materials.

Hi! I am needing some suggestions on what kind of newborn diapers are the best. I didn't start CDing with my daughter until she was a year so I missed out on all the cute tiny diapers. I am not a big fan of prefolds because I can't really fold them very well. My 3 year old could probably fold them better than I can! Are there any good hybrids for newborns? My dryer connection doesn't work so I would have to line dry. How long does it usually take for diapers to dry on a clothesline? Sorry so many questions! I am just excited to start shopping!
Newborn Diaper Help
I think it really just depends on personal preference. Some people swear by prefolds for newborns but I too do not like them, even for newborns. I don't know if it's typical but I've found pockets/AIO in newborn sizes don't tend to hold much, which given their size is understandable but that has also meant leaks even before baby's been in it for 2 hours. So for me, my favorite has been fitteds and covers. I don't think I've ever seen a newborn hybrid system but my GroBaby diapers might possibly fit a newborn, I guess we'll see in a few weeks. I make my own newborn fitteds, they are super easy to make yourself and it also saves money. That said, a lot of people swear by Kissaluvs and Swaddlebees for newborns. As far as covers, all of mine are Thirsties size 1. For DS1 they fit at 6lbs even and he still had the scrawny newborn legs (he was 2 weeks when we started cloth)
This was his very first cloth diaper (Again he was 2 weeks, 6lbs even), homemade fitted with a Thirsties DuoWrap size 1
I am one of those mamas that swear by prefolds for newborns It just takes a little bit of practice on the folding, you have to alter the fold to each child anyway, and they wash so much easier than the big multi-layer dipes which I like for the liquid-poop phase.
That said, I also really like fitteds and covers for little ones, I have a ton of fitteds that I made myself, and also Kissaluvs make both fitteds and contours that are really good. Contours are great for newborns too becasue you don't have to fold them, you get the elastic around the leg but you can still adjust the fit around the waist incase you have a real skinny minnie or a chunker.
I think BSWW are the best for newborns, they're a bit thicker and fit a bit smaller, but Thirsties are really good too.
I am not good at folding prefolds either, but I really like just laying the prefold folded in thirds inside of a cover. I like Thirsties and Bummis covers. Around 3-4 weeks or so we'll be able to hopefully use pocket diapers.
I really like prefolds for newborns (and still use them on my 14mo old). Folding took a bit of practice, but it didn't take long to get the hang of it. The jelly roll fold was best for newborn poop. Find a good website that shows the folds to help.
Oh and my dh likes the prefolds best too. He folds them better than I do!

First Look: Paul Feig's New 'Ghostbusters' Team Official Cast Photo
Who you gonna call?! These women! To 'bust some ghosts, and clean up the supernatural haunting your neighborhood. Yesterday, a paparazzi shot of all four Ghostbusters stars in their jumpsuits leaked to the internet. So to follow-up, director Paul Feig has tweeted out the first full image of the four new 'busters in front of the Ecto-1 (also revealed this week). Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones star as the new Ghostbusters, and we get to see all four of them in this shot. I love the look of all of them, each one is unique, and it looks like this is going to be so much fun. This is our first official look.

First Look: Paul Feig's Vintage Ecto-1 from the New 'Ghostbusters'
What are they gonna drive? A truck? A car? Nah, the Ecto-1 of course! Director Paul Feig has revealed the first two photos of the
brand new vintage Ecto-1 from new Ghostbusters movie in the works. The original Ecto-1 was a 1959 Cadillac professional chassis, this seems to be a slightly newer model, but not by much. This certainly looks like the kind of hunk of junk Melissa McCarthy's character has had in her garage since she was a kid, and they've requisitioned it to 'bust some ghosts. Feig also posted a shot of the backside of the car, which shows the classic Ecto-1 license plate clearly. I like the look of this. At least it wasn't modernized.

Two New Stills to Preview Pixar's Short Film 'Sanjay's Super Team'
It's Comic-Con this week! That means loads of previews from all kinds of different movies. USA Today has revealed the first two actual photos from the upcoming animated short film Sanjay's Super Team, the latest original creation from Pixar Animation Studios that will be attached to the release of The Good Dinosaur, in theaters this November (two new original Pixar movies in one year, plus short films, huzzah!). We've featured a concept art piece for this short before, but these two photos show us the actual finished animation and how it all looks. It's a preview for Comic-Con as director Sanjay Patel is hosting a panel on Thursday called The Super Story Behind the Pixar Short Sanjay's Super Team. Take a look below.

First Look: Paul Feig Tweets Photo of New Ghostbusters Uniforms
It's not "who you gonna call?" this time, now it's "what you gunna wear?!" Director Paul Feig has debuted the first photo via Twitter of the Ghostbusters uniforms (but no proton packs?) for the new Ghostbusters movie, starring an all-female team of 'busters. Shooting is now underway. You can see the various nametags on the uniforms for each of the actresses starring in this: Melissa McCarthy as Abby Bergman, Kristen Wiig as Erin Gabler, Kate McKinnon as Jillian Holtzmann, and Leslie Jones as Patty Tolan. These new outfits certainly have an old, gritty vibe to them, and they still are jumpsuits, so that's good news at least. Beyond that, I'm waiting to see any actual footage though I've got a strangely good feeling about this movie.

First Look: Dwayne Johnson as Bob in 'Central Intelligence' Comedy
As usual, it's time to get a look one of next summer's movies as we're getting into the thick of this summer. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson took to his Twitter/Instagram to send out a first photo of him as "Bob" from Central Intelligence, a new comedy from Rawson Marshall Thurber, director of We're the Millers. The film is about regular guys recruited to become spies, and he is one of them. "The inspiration behind this character 'Bob' has always been Tom Hanks in BIG with an added twist. He's a grown man who's extremely childlike and views the world thru exuberant and enthusiastic teenage eyes…" Yet he's an elite agent for the CIA. He also "rocks a fanny pack which holds his Bruce Lee quotes and a condom (he's always prepared)."

First Look: Andrew Garfield in Martin Scorsese's New Film 'Silence'
The new Scorsese movie is on the way. There have been handfuls of paparazzi set photos and other leaked images, plus news about production troubles, but after waiting patiently they've released an official photo from Martin Scorsese's Silence, which finished filming in Taiwan earlier this month. EW.com debuted this photo from Silence, showing actor Andrew Garfield as Father Rodrigues, a priest who travels to Japan to confront the rumors that his mentor has abandoned the Church. He's seen embracing Shinya Tsukamoto, who plays a villager named Mokichi. It's one simple shot but it's powerful and speaks volumes about what kind of film we'll be seeing. And I can't wait. I've got a really good feeling this is going to turn out amazing.

First Official Photos: Astronaut Matt Damon in 'The Martian' Movie
Nice orange suit there, Mr. Damon. Coming to theaters later this year is Ridley Scott's next sci-fi movie, The Martian, adapted from Andy Weir's novel about an astronaut stranded on Mars. Matt Damon plays Mark Watney, that astronaut on Mars, and while we posted a "first look" a few months ago, this is really the photo everyone's been waiting to see. Well, everyone should wait to see the trailer for this - because the footage is going to be the most impressive part. Then again, if you're a space suit nerd this may be your moment to flip out. The shot (which looks like a magazine scan) shows Damon in his astronaut suit for his mission to Mars, on the ARES III. It's a cool shot, with some of the Martian landscape reflecting in his visor. Check it out.

First Photos from Todd Phillips' New Movie 'Arms and the Dudes'
Meet your new Arms Dealers, David and Efraim. After making three The Hangover movies, what is director Todd Phillips up to next? This is his next project, a movie called Arms and the Dudes, "based on a true story" of two young men who were contracted by the Pentagon to arm America's allies in Afghanistan. Miles Teller plays David, Jonah Hill plays Efraim, to friends who suddenly start bidding on military contracts, but then they end up in-over-their-heads with the Afghanistan deal. This sounds like it might be really good, especially coming from the comedic mind of Todd Phillips. SlashFilm found four new photos posted online.

First Look: Meryl Streep & Hugh Grant in 'Florence Foster Jenkins'
Well aren't these two looking adorable? Pathé and BBC Films have debuted a first look photo at the film Florence Foster Jenkins, the latest from director Stephen Frears following Philomena, Lay the Favorite and Tamara Drewe. In Florence Foster Jenkins, Meryl Streep plays the legendary New York heiress who became an opera singer. Hugh Grant plays her partner St Clair Bayfield. The two can be seen riding in the back of a car, heading home from (what seems like) a night at Carnegie Hall. No release date is set yet, and the film just barely started shooting, so this is a very early first look and we likely won't see this until 2016.

First Look at Orgrim the Orc from Duncan Jones' 'Warcraft' Movie
For the Horde!! Finally, after years and years of waiting and buzz and details, we have an official first look at one of the Orcs from the upcoming Warcraft movie based on the popular video game. Moon/SourceCode director Duncan Jones is directing the Warcraft movie, about the Orcs vs the Humans, following various Orc and Human characters. This time we get to meet Orgrim the Orc, played by actor Robert Kazinsky, who we just saw as Chuck Hansen in Pacific Rim. Over at Wired, where the image is from, they explain: "Orgrim's likeness comes from the masterminds at Industrial Light and Magic, who took concept art from Blizzard Entertainment… and merged it with photographs and scans of Kazinsky to create the orc." Sweet.

First Look: Kenneth Lonergan's New Film 'Manchester-by-the Sea'
Gather round for your first look at a new film starring Casey Affleck and Michelle Williams. Out of Cannes, THR has posted the first three photos from Manchester-by-the Sea, the latest feature written & directed by Kenneth Lonergan about a man who returns to his small Massachusetts hometown to deal with both his estranged wife and the consequences of his brother's death. Casey Affleck plays the lead, while Michelle Williams plays his estranged wife, and the cast includes Kyle Chandler (seen in one of the photos). This is a very early tease as they're still shooting and looking to drum up sales buzz. We'll keep an eye out for it.

First Look: Michel Gondry's Road Movie About 'Microbe & Gasoil'
This sounds like it's going to be so much fun. The first photo from the new Michel Gondry film has hit the web. Gondry moves quickly and quietly when working in France, we didn't even know this was shot yet. Microbe et Gasoil, as it's titled (or Microbe and Gasoil), is already filmed and stars Ange Dargent and Théophile Baquet as the two boys, along with Audrey Tautou. This first photo won't make sense until you hear the plot, then you'll have a big smile on your face when you realize. "As the summer holidays approach, the two friends don't want to spend two months in the company of their families, so they build their own 'car' out of a motor mower and some planks of wood, and set off on an adventure on the roads of France."

Eisenberg & Stewart on First Two Smokin' Posters for 'American Ultra'
Wowza. I don't know how the MPAA let them get away with this, but awesome, let me say that. I'm guessing the lack of any cigarette/joint makes all the difference. Two new posters and a first look photo have debuted for American Ultra, the new film from a script by Max Landis (of Chronicle, The Death and Return of Superman) directed by Nima Nourizadeh. Actor Jesse Eisenberg plays a stoner named Mike who, along with Kristen Stewart as his girlfriend, it turns out is a sleeper agent, and the government is trying to eliminate him. They definitely both look like stoners, with Eisenberg donning a wig, and Stewart dying her hair for the part, the only thing that really is missing is a joint. Take a look at all the new images below.

First Look: Elle Fanning in Nicolas Winding Refn's 'The Neon Demon'
Don't worry, the first look photos for The Neon Demon do actually have neon in them. I wouldn't expect anything less from a Nicolas Winding Refn film, right? The first two photos for Refn's next feature, The Neon Demon, have hit the web just as the Cannes Film Festival kicks off today. But he's not showing the film there just yet, they're just drumming up some early buzz while in production now. Nicolas Winding Refn's cast this time includes Elle Fanning as the star, Jesse, a youthful model, along with Jena Malone, Karl Glusman, Bella Heathcote, Abbey Lee, Desmond Harrington, Christina Hendricks, and Keanu Reeves. These first two photos are only Fanning (and Refn) so far, but I'm sure we'll see more from this film soon enough.

Title: The Life of Pi
Year: 2012
Inspiration: The Life of Pi (book) by Yann Martel
The Life of Pi Synopsis
Piscine Patel is the son of a zookeeper who makes sure that his son knows the dangers of wild animals. When Pi, as he is called, tries to make friends with the Bengal tiger Richard Parker (believing that all animals have souls), his father feeds a live goat to the tiger and makes him watch.
The zoo fails, and the family gets on the Japanese boat Tsimtsum to Canada to sell the animals. A storm during the night sinks the boat, and Pi is pushed onto a life boat without even the benefit of the usually-required life jacket, and joined by a hyena, an orangutan, a lame zebra, and Richard Parker. The hyena brutally kills the zebra first, and then the orangutan, for food.
Pi Patel stays away, cowering from the animal until Richard Parker comes out to kill and feed on the hyena. Pi eventually makes his peace with the Bengal tiger, enough for them to coexist on the boat. After living through and leaving a carnivorous island, Pi and Richard Parker finally wash up across the Pacific on the Mexican shore, where the Bengal tiger leaves Pi.
When they arrive, the insurance men and one novelist ask him to tell his story, which he does. [SPOILER] When both sets of listeners express incredulity, Pi responds by replacing the animals with a sailor as the lame zebra, his mother as the orangutan, and the ship's cook as the hyena. He, or rather his survival self, is Richard Parker the tiger. Both sets of listeners then choose to present the first version of the story instead.
The Life of Pi Book-to-Movie Adaptation
The Life of Pi by Yann Martel is generally considered a classic, and would probably thrill anyone who got to the end. The problem is getting to the end. I do not consider myself a reader who can easily be bored, and I do not mind long-winded stories if the telling is enjoyable. I found myself bored nearly to tears by The Life of Pi. (The only book I have found more boring than that is Rob Roy by Sir Walter Scott (Ivanhoe), but it was written in the 19th century and is therefore more forgivable).
That Pi Patel was so un-interestingly perfect, even in his pursuit of three religions so he could "love God." I see what it contributed to the story, but the scene and many others for that entire first part of the book failed to leave me with a good impression of who Pi Patel was and what he was like. It just told me he had a complaining and confused mind.
On the whole, I believe that The Life of Pi was superbly adapted to the movie screen much better than it was a book. Pi Patel is Hindi (Indian), and when they are in Pondicherry, the depictions of life are full and vibrant with color.
The movie, with stunning cinematography and design, brings this cultural beauty out much better than the book does. It fills the space around Pi with design and color, an explosive contrast to the gray of the later storm and the wide blue of the sea which is in most of the movie.
The makers of the "Life of Pi" movie spent a considerable amount of time and money on its animation. Not only the brilliant animation of the animals (by the breakthrough but now bankrupt studio which made the animals for "The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe"), but on other parts which, they realized, needed it more for the story-telling.
One of these was when Pi Patel was remembering the story his mother told him about the interdependence of all nature as reflected in Hinduism. The interconnectedness of nature inherent in the Hindu religion explodes in the night sky over Pi and in the blue sea beneath him as his memory replays and recounts the story.
The other brilliant use of animation was when Pi and Richard Parker were on the carnivorous island. When reading that section in the book, it did not make an impression on me. That the island was in the shape of a woman was an interesting detail, but it did not immediately remind me of the Hindi dancer whom he left behind in Pondicherry. In the movie, it is only when Pi Patel gets away from the island that the animation transforms the island into the shape of a woman.
If a story-teller is to tell a story well, his or her readers and listeners should carry away with them impressions of characters and events. An award-winning writing teacher of the Storywriting School describes it like looking out the window. If he tells us to look out the window and tell us what we see, we should describe what is on its other side without prompting.
If we notice the presence of the window at all, then the window is not doing its job. A dirty window defeats its own purpose. In story-telling, if the media itself (the writing, the film, the stageplay) distracts the audience from the story, then the window is very dirty.
It is all very well to describe The Life of Pi as a classic must-read that reflects the dual sides of human nature. However, if its readers cannot get through the story because of the unengaging writing, then the book defeats its own purpose: to be read. Because of this, the movie adaptation is one of the best I have seen in book-to-film history. It fixed the story-telling and narrative flow, and did succeed in leaving an impression of those dual sides of human nature.

Add yet another chapter to the constable controversy in Potter County. In what seems to be a never-ending saga, the county has once again been forced to take legal action against a constable in the best interests of county taxpayers. Unfortunately, this is nothing new in Potter County, or in the Panhandle for that matter, as the office of constable has become a target of litigation, criticism and debate.
Previous cases have involved the legitimacy of the constable office and whether these elected officials were performing the duties of their office. The latest controversy in Potter County involves the rather meager sum of $2,012.05, a drop in the bucket of county coffers. The amount of money is not necessarily the point.
What concerns the county, and taxpayers as well, are the consequences of not following state law.
County Attorney Sonya Letson has requested 108th District Judge Abe Lopez fine and remove Precinct 3 Constable David Crawford for failing to meet state requirements to hold office.
Crawford sent a letter of resignation to the county in December. According to the county, Crawford continued to hold office even after his resignation effective Sept. 29 and wrongfully received salary and benefits. In what seems to be a monotonous allegation no matter the case, the county also alleged Crawford performed little or no work.
Then there is the little matter of state law, which the county should use as the basis for its actions.
The county contends Crawford failed to provide evidence that he received a permanent peace officer's license by the 270th day of office, which is a violation of state law.
If the county can prove this point, then it seems it has a strong case in recouping taxpayer money.
Inexplicably, Crawford is running unopposed to the same office from which he resigned less than a year ago. The county also is beginning the 2002-2003 budget process, and the Precinct 3 constable office has requested a salary of $8,250, which does not include related expenses such as retirement and insurance.
Before another chapter is added to this tale, the county needs a resolution to this cliffhanger to prevent taxpayers from being hung out to dry.

Shingles and chickenpox are both caused by a single virus of the herpes family, known as varicella-zoster virus (VZV). The word herpes is derived from the Greek word "herpein," which means "to creep," a reference to a characteristic pattern of skin eruptions. VZV causes two different clinical illnesses:
- Varicella, or chickenpox, develops after an individual is exposed to VZV for the first time.
- Herpes zoster, or shingles, develops from reactivation of the virus later in life, usually many decades after chickenpox.

Sunglasses strapped to his temples, reggae blasting from the car stereo, Josh Charles is tearing through the streets of his native Baltimore in his dad's Jeep convertible. Behind the wheel, the 17-year-old actor seems more like a standard-issue teenager than Knox Overstreet, the upper-crust student he plays in the new film Dead Poets Society. He gawks at pretty girls like a teenager. He speaks in superlatives like a teenager. He even drives like a teenager—trying to carry on a conversation, despite the roar of the wind, about his favorite movie, Diner, which was filmed in his beloved Baltimore.
"My father knew some of the guys who hung around that diner," says Charles. "My godfather is the guy the Mickey Rourke character is based on in the movie. We call him Boogie. Remember the popcorn scene? That really happened." Perhaps only a 17-year-old could look upon a 1982 film as a classic, but what really grabbed hold of Charles's imagination was the Diner performance of Kevin Bacon. "When I saw him on the screen, I said, 'Now, that guy is cool!' "
Kids may someday say the same of Charles. Although Robin Williams gets top billing in Dead Poets, playing an eccentric English teacher at fictional Welton Academy, it's Josh and his fellow pupils who steal the movie with ingratiating performances. Charles won some of the critics' highest praise. "Josh was the one to beat in auditions," says the film's director, Peter Weir. "No one came close to him in terms of charm and acting ability."
In Dead Poets, Charles falls in love from afar with a perky blond cheerleader who's dating the captain of the football team. Inspired by Williams's love of poetry, Charles composes an ode to his first true love and tries to woo her away. Josh claims some experience in such affairs. "I fall in love with a girl right off the bat, then totally blow it off, saying, 'Naah, she won't go out with me.' The film was fun because I really had the chance to get her."
Josh is the youngest child of Allan, 42, a commercial director, and Laura, 37, a gossip columnist for the Baltimore Sun, who were divorced in 1982. A first baseman in Little League, he sometimes regrets not pursuing the sport. "There's still a side of me that says, 'You wimp!' when I think about choosing acting over baseball." Actually, he chose comedy first. Always the class clown—because, he admits, "I needed attention"—Josh visited a local comedy club at age 10 and began heckling one of the comedians. His insults got more laughs than the bombing comic. A copywriter friend of Josh's father then wrote some jokes for the little Rodney Dangerfield, as in: "School is so tough these days they're making Quaaludes out of Flintstones vitamins." Not a major gut-buster, perhaps, but Charles did get a few yuks performing in local clubs for a few months.
Later that year, enjoying his taste of the ham's life, he decided to attend Stagedoor Manor, a theater camp in the Catskills. He loved it so much he spent the next four summers at the camp, where such actors as Robert Downey Jr., Jon Cryer and Helen Slater learned their trade. In 1987, a year after leaving Stagedoor, he got his first professional acting role from another Baltimorean, John Waters, playing a dancer named Iggy—a "disgusting pig," says Charles—in last year's Hairspray. As he waits to hear about post-Dead Poets roles, Josh worries about his "longevity. I wonder if I'll ever be as good as some of the older actors like De Niro," he says.
But first he has got to finish high school, which he's almost about to do. Although he often heads back to Baltimore, home base for the past year has been Manhattan, where Josh lives with his brother Jeff, 21, a commercial-jingle writer. Charles says he's "madly in love" with an actress, and after one date he's eager to know her better. He's so smitten he might even screw up the courage to try his Dead Poets romantic ploy. "I've never written a poem to anybody," he says, "but I might now."
