Gallery: Bee Local champions urban honey bees
Damian Magista, founder of Bee Local, calls his product "artisan neighborhood honey" which makes it sound, well, twee.
It's actually more like a revolution in a jar.
What caught our attention in selecting Bee Local as a finalist for the Sustainable Business Oregon Innovation in Sustainable Product Award, was what Bee Local's honey represents: an urban agriculture renaissance.
|Bee Local at work >>
Funded by the $5,600 Magista raised through the website Kickstarter, Bee Local is in growth mode. Its hyper-local approach to honey means that hives in different neighborhoods produce honey with different flavors. Magista says each hive's bees make honey that reflects the plants and flowers in their immediate vicinity: Mt. Tabor honey is different than Laurelhurst honey is different than Sellwood honey.
A healthy bee population is key to a human's ability to feed itself. We're glad Bee Local is doing its part to keep them around.

Letter from the
Editors The Look has evolved quite a bit from its initial conception in early February. The magazine spun off from a variety of ideas from different members of the group. Some ideas included different magazines focusing on certain styles, art, lifestyle, and music of subcultures. Some suggestions were "hipsters", spray-painting, and "emos". These various ideas were eventually composed into a single idea: The Look: a magazine about contemporary Western subcultures and what an outsider can do to join these groups. While the ideas were great on paper, the magazine encountered many problems along the way. From struggles with our identity, to internal group disagreements relating to the direction and flow of the magazine, The Look has had much to overcome. In the end it has emerged as a new, clean, chic and very stylish magazine appealing to teen audiences. The Look documents different subcultures and styles that exist in America and around the world, as well as the art, lifestyle, clothing, and music that are associated with these groups. The magazine has become a great guide to the average American high school student just trying to fit in.

At first, all that can be heard from an open garage in a central Austin Allandale neighborhood is the piano riff from The Who's "Baba O'Riley."
Next comes the embellishment on the keyboard. Then all at once the drums and powerful guitar chords come roaring in. Just when the lyrics are supposed to begin the music dies off.

"Jenny," lead singer Carl R. of the teen band Avenging Poor Yorick says to his girlfriend Jenny W, "you have to sing!" She stands up and walks to the microphone. The music starts again, but when the guitar comes in, feedback screeches out of the amp. The band is having an off-day for practicing.
Despite the occasional technical difficulty, and their impressively young age (their oldest members are only fifteen), Avenging Poor Yorick has become a success in the Austin music scene, playing gigs on "Good Morning Austin," the local morning news, and in hotspots like Threadgill's and Red 7. Made up of Carl (who also plays guitar), drummer Kyle D, keytarist Richard M, guitarist Peter W, keyboardist Marshall W, and bassist Lily J, the band of teenagers plays in bars around Austin, and is going to be in the up-coming South by Southwest Music Festival. "Once upon a time [we] decided that one day [we] were gonna go to the magical Kingdom of Azrah," says Kyle, likening the start of their band to an epic quest. "[But] there were many dragons and wizards and warlocks." The magical foes of which Kyle speaks is a metaphor for their rocky start. "Me and Peter and Marshall wanted to have fun but Carl was like, 'No, we have to be professional,' so we quit that band and made another," explains Kyle. Carl also started his own band separately, but wasn't very successful in his endeavor, and went back to Kyle, Peter, and Marshall.
"Carl messaged me one day and was like, 'Can I join you guys' band? 'Cause my band hasn't practiced once,'" Kyle recalls. "We had gotten a couple practices in and so we let him." The band, at this point called Five Seconds to Never, covered Green Day songs until the boys changed the name to Avenging Poor Yorick and began writing their own music, including "Four Years" and the colorful "Shampoo Road," and picked
"There are a lot of people who are weird about playing with kids' bands" up guitarist Brad Z. "Brad's been playing since he was born," says Kyle of Brad, who was replaced by bassist Judge after being told by his parents he could no longer perform with the band. All the members had at least a few years of experience on their respective instruments, with the exception of Kyle, who picked up
the drums after the band was formed. "And I just rock," he says jokingly, though he is proficient on his instrument. "He's also really modest," adds Jenny, singer for teen band Jenny Wolfe and the Pack, who occasionally joins up with APY — what has become shorthand for the band's long name. Some of the members are even classically trained. Peter has played the violin for 6 years, and Richard has played the bassoon with his school band for four years. "This is a lot better," says Richard of playing with Avenging Poor Yorick. "[In concert band], you just sit there and play music off the page. [With APY], you don't feel like you're fighting against other people for first chair." Despite their experience, the band sometimes gets discriminated for their age. "In Austin, there are a lot of people who are weird about playing with kids' bands," says Carl. "When we got gigs at Red 7 and we played with adult bands, we could tell that they were just like, 'Oh, what're these kids doing here?'"

By Darius B. Two years ago, Jonas Davidson picked up his first can. He traveled into a land unknown and spray-painted. Jonas Davidson spray painted for the first time, unknowing of what was to come.
Fifteen-year-old Jonas Davidson* stands, can in hand, staring at his blank wall, his canvas. He jolts and shakes his hand up and down three or four times, flailing his hands around in the air. He straightens his arm out, flicks his wrist up; Davidson waits for his hand to steady to take the shot. He shuts one eye, takes aim… and sprays. "Ahhh…" Davidson says pleasurably inhaling his favorite smell, the smell he is used to, the smell of his passions, the smell of spray paint art. No, Davidson is not an inhalant abuser; Davidson is a member of the legal street art community, a subculture of gangstas traveling around town… bombing and tagging it up. 'Bombing and tagging it up,' street slang for creating different types of spraypaint art is how Davidson spends his free time. In particular he enjoys bombing, or in common man's language: spray painting bubble letters or drawings. Sometimes signing his artwork with a tag (a stylized way to write your name in
spray paint), Davidson is one of the few remaining legal spray-paint artists, and he's proud of it. He paints elaborate caricatures on concrete walls and sidewalks in Austin, Texas, his hometown where he attends school. Davidson has never committed vandalism on Austin's
"If people keep spraying on walls illegally then nobody will associate spray paint art with anything other than the show Cops or something like that." prized buildings; after all, he's not a criminal, he's just an Austinite who believes spray paint is one of the greatest art mediums in the world… when used properly. No matter how hard it gets Davidson sticks to his chosen medium, never turning to graffiti.
"Few people allow you to paint on their walls legally," Davidson says. Davidson stands his ground, though, making do with what he has in what he calls the "dog eat dog world" of spray paint art. Davidson, a strong believer in giving spray paint art an association other than graffiti, says he has not once even thought of committing vandalism, "Y'know before spray paint art, there were people like Leonardo [da Vinci] and Donatello and people think back and are like amazed with their work," he says, "If people keep spraying on walls illegally then nobody will associate spray paint art with anything other than the show Cops or something like that." Before Davidson begins painting, he needs a canvas. An easy option would be for Davidson to just go out and buy a wood slab and paint all to his heart's desire, but Davidson chooses not to. "You have to do it on concrete, like a solid wall; wood soaks the paint in," Davidson
says. To ensure the best quality of his artwork, Davidson encounters his first roadblock: finding a canvas. With few people allowing Davidson and other legal street artists to paint their walls and possibly ruin it, he has quite a bit of trouble finding a place to paint. "Whoever can get to surfaces the first are the ones that get to paint," Davidson says, "It's pretty much survival of the fittest," he says, "Everybody just finds out about all the spots. I'll be driving to my friend's house and I'll see an unused wall, but nine times out of ten, the wall's owner either won't let you paint or fifteen other people will have already seen it." Davidson isn't friends with any other serious spray paint artist, though; he can't be. They're the enemy; they're his competitors, wanting the same things he wants. He has to
be harsh or he won't survive. "It's tough y'know, I remember one time when I almost got beaten up defending my turf," Davidson says. "This one hippy shop owner was all cool letting

doodle away at his comics, making characters and drawing bubble letters displaying POW and BANG. His life turned around when a fellow artist introduced him to spray paint. The artist displayed various techniques and showed Davidson what he had done. Davidson caught on immediately and from then on was hooked.

Another roadblock of a spray paint artist is making the painting look good. Spray paint isn't your average medium; it requires quite a lot of time and effort, and quite a number of skills.
since it was so close to home.
"[Spray paint art and comic book art] have A LOT of similarities," Davidson says. "When you're making [bombed] characters they are similar to [comic book] characters everything's kinda exaggerated. You got big head, big nose, big eyes, big body, everything's kinda bigger."

There's often moved on from cartoons little time to cherish legal and began to bomb bubble spray paint art as it simply letters and tag, neither of isn't feasible to keep with which he liked as much as the little resources that a bombing his characters, spray paint artist has at his
disposal. "You paint over [your art] and start over," Davidson says. "You have limited resources." It's simply the only thing a spray paint artist can do and something a spray paint artist needs to learn to cope with. You can't cherish your art; you can take a photograph of it or remember put you can't keep a hard copy of what your masterpiece was because once the art is made it's just another canvas. Unlike criminal graffiti artists who throw their tags and bombs on bridges, Davidson doesn't care if people see it; he stays humble and simply pursues his hobby not trying to be cool because as Davidson says, "a true gangsta doesn't try to be a gangsta." Davidson sticks to what he has been doing for a while now and doesn't care what people think. Sometimes, he says, he encounters trouble after trouble and manages to make it through expressing himself in his chosen medium. Continued on Page 39
Gangsta fashion advice straight from da mouf.
Man Of By Cyndric M.
I wander onto a bus and take a seat, knowing full well what I'm getting myself into. I grew up in downtown San Jose - I know their type: Huge, muscular, black, intimidating. I straighten my jeans and ruffle my hair, preparing to "rep" my own subculture. And that's when Big J walks in and sits beside me. Jesse S has been reppin' the 512 since 1993. A native of north Austin, he has his feet firmly planted in the world of Gangsta fashion. You've seen him walking down the halls, surrounded by his cronies and chums he's always a mass of green or red or blue or whatever color he decides to artfully depict that day. He looks like the modern son of Al Capone, he smells of the latest thug cologne, and he embodies the spirit of all that is Gangsta. A true player. Surely such a man was born into riches and power. How did all this begin? "It started with my family; like my uncles. I wanted to look and be like them more than anything, so I decided to." But despite all you may know of Jesse, there is one astonishing fact that he himself confided to me: "I don't consider myself gangsta. Some people think I am, but I don't really think about it. It's not a lifestyle for me, I just like the clothes." He sure fooled me. So how does he pull it off? Dressing Gangsta is a simple formula that becomes apparent when you catch sight of Jesse: Big pants + big shirt + big jacket + big shoes + an article of bling + bandana (optional) = Gangsta? Not quite. Brand power is major player in Gangsta fashion. "You can't wear just anything. Famous, GUnit, Dickies, South Pole, Ecko and Dickies all work," he informs me. So if you have your tastes set to correct Gangsta-mode, it's just a simple matter of dressing in layers to achieve this look. "It only takes me 5 minutes to get dressed -
it's the easiest thing in the world." It's hard to go wrong. And it's cheap if you "know where to go" like Jesse does. "I shop pretty much everywhere I can; Marshall's and Dickies are my main places - some local sports shops, too." It's cheap and easy, too. So is the Gangsta look just a manifestation of laziness? It would seem so. "I like that it's comfortable, easy to wear and easy to shop for. I feel comfortable dressed like this – and I don't do it to impress girls or anything, really." And companies are capitalizing on similar views towards apparel. Nike Athletic's revenue alone for 2008's fiscal year was 18.6 billion dollars. ($18,600,000,000) Jamie Ross, creative director of the youth division at Donegar Group, a New York-based fashion consulting firm, said that hip-hop is making an impact on mainstream clothing lines. "Many mainstream clothing lines look to street fashion for ideas, such as Dolce & Gabana. Gap has joined Madonna and Missy Elliot," explained Ross, "The subculture has become the main culture." So if you think that this is your Look, then have no fears diving into the Hip Hop fashion subculture, because you have much company. You know where to shop, and you know the benefits, but what do you need to look out for? "I keep up to date with the colors that I'll get jumped or shot for wearing.. People pretty much leave me alone because I wear the right colors." And for the less-confident of us, Jesse advises that as long as you don't completely take to heart the way you're dressed, you'll draw no attention from the true thugs out there. But if you do want to attract those types of people, play the part, and go a step above Jesse, the following is recommended:. Go to page 22 to learn how to be "gangsta".

Fourteen-year-old Ashley Long puts her bags down on the soccer practice field, creating a cloud of dust. She begins smiling and laughs at her teammate's uncanny jokes, her red hair wrestles with the gently tugging breeze. She revs back stretching and imitates a half moon. After lowering her face from the roaring sun, she opens her eyes to see one of her teammates, Sara Gordon.
A sense of happiness overtakes Gordon's face as she begins laughing at a comment made within a group of sophomore, junior, and senior soccer players. Her fingers begin gently grabbing lose red strands of hair and begins placing them under the blue pre-wrap serving as a headband. Placing her hands on her waist, she shifts her weight onto her left leg, grabs her ponytail, begins wrapping it around her right hand, and then releases it into the wind.

the idea because she thought the camp was going to be occupied with a bunch of younger kids. In the end, Long ended up liking the camp; she liked the riding of the horses, the kids there were very nice, and the camp counselors were very personable. Long's life has been greatly altered after that one summer. "Horseback riding is just one of those things you have to try. I promise you would love it. Plus you learn a lot from it," Long says. "Riding has taught me how to be more responsible." Gordon, a junior, prefers to participate in the LBJ Marching Band, National Honor Society (NHS), and creates art outside of soccer. Gordon joined marching band because she says, 'all her friends were doing it'; she ended up liking it and has stuck to it ever since. During her sophomore year, Gordon was initiated into NHS and strongly likes being a part of the organization for multiple reasons.

"It's a way of expression and also just during the stressful school days, it's nice to have a class where I can just sit down and just draw."
Gordon and Long have a strong passion for soccer. The fact that soccer allows them to stay in shape, hang out with good friends and make new ones, and serves as a challenge without applying too much pressure, has attracted the girls to sport.

Despite (or maybe because of) it's deviation from the band's previous sound, Franz Ferdinand's new album, Tonight: Franz Ferdinand, has become wildly popular, and rightly so.
By Sarah K
The long-in-the-making concept album about a night on the town (and the after effects) has infectiously catchy songs like "Lucid Dreams" and the single "No You Girls." Even old Franz fans are pleased with their new dance/pop sound. This sound, which lurked in the background of the songs on their last album, You Could Have It So Much Better, but was never allowed to bloom completely, has already resulted in many positive reviews, and new fans from crowds who probably wouldn't normally listen to their style of music. For example, the NCAA is using part of the first single released off Tonight, "Ulysses," as background music for one of its commercials. As I've already said, Tonight is a concept album focused around a night of partying and girls, but by the last few tracks, the protagonist has realized that life is not all fun and games and promiscuity and that maybe he should settle down. With concept albums, an artist is forced to stick to a certain theme, and for Franz Ferdinand, this has resulted in a more organized sound and recurring motifs that tie all the songs together. "Katherine Kiss Me" is a gentler, acoustic reprise of "No You
Girls," for example. "Can't Stop Feeling" and "Dream Again" share the same ominoussounding crescendo at the beginning of the track. And for those LASA students who are still searching for The Odyssey's influence on modern literature, Tonight has plenty of references to it. The first
it's old punk sound coming through with the distorted guitar in "What She Came For," "Lucid Dreams," and "Can't Stop Feeling." Despite the pop sound which dominates the album, Tonight also manages to keep a good variety. "Live Alone" evokes a somber mood and "Dream

Tonight also does little things to add to the overall musical experience. "Lucid Dreams," which talks about stereos and radios includes subtle cracks and pops in the music, which make it sound like it's being broadcasted a record player. "Dream Again," which is - as it's title suggests - about dreams, has a just plain eerie sound to it. Some old fans may remain unconvinced, but the album is still very classic Franz Ferdinand at its roots,
Again" sounds creepy, while "Katherine Kiss Me" is a cute acoustic song and "No You Girls" makes you want to get up and dance. The album is even formatted like You Could Have It So Much Better, with its more upbeat songs at the start and then finishes with its more mellow, tuned down songs. As someone who'd never paid much attention to the band., I like the Tonight, and after going back, I like old Franz, too. Tonight: Franz Ferdinand sounds like a more mature, more cultured You Could Have It So Much Better, and if you liked old Franz Ferdinand, you should give it a listen.

A baby sits strapped into the white high chair, squealing and wailing every few seconds. With each swing, the baby is able to knock the spoon filled with a brownish-yellow substance out of her father's hand. Across the kitchen, I sit rocking back and forth, laughing. The so-called "food" is everywhere, the counter, the high chair, the father, the baby, and the floor. The father sits back exhausted and frustrated and the look on his face indicates he is running out of tricks, not to mention food. A few seconds go by and the father straightens up as a slight grin pierces his gloomy face. A smile as wide as the moon overtakes my face as well; the entertainment is about to resume. The father opens his mouth; uncontrollably mine opens too. "Open wide," says the father. "Here comes the airplane." The baby opens her mouth!
ergent-de m e d n a mc-esher
The moon-sized smile covering my face vanished as quick as nighttime and I became the frustrated one. The father had just used a common saying which makes no sense at all. Who in their right mind would want to shove an airplane in a little baby's mouth? That's torture. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, "People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character." Clearly, this must be true, because if this man had the slightest clue how unintelligent this airplane analogy makes him sound, he more than likely would have given it second thought. English logician and philosopher, Bertrand Russell believes and once said, "The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd." We often depend heavily on many popular quotes which make no sense and defy the

FOR Hipsters HIPS
hey're everywhere. They breed and multiply in urban centers, they nest in thrift shops, boutiques and Urban Outfitters around the world, and they come in all shapes and colors.
"Hipsters", "indie kids", "scene kids", or perhaps, "posers", "wannabes", "fake", or "trendy". Whatever you call them, they're all around and odds are - they're dressed better than you. I've never had a word to describe the way I dress, I've never been labeled anything because of how I dress, not even in middle school, when calling people "emo" for wearing a black shirt was all the rage. Nope, I wear clothes that are comfortable, colorful, and classically fashionable. But all this is changing with my entrance into high school. With about a thousand kids from all parts of one of the most progressive cities in America all trying to find their place in the world, spiritually and fashionably, harsh words have been thrown around in regards to how people dress and act. Students' characters have been brought into question time and time again. A sample scenario, if you will: "So, Jack and Jill are hanging out with the gangster crowd. They're such posers because they're actually HIPSTERS."

Case AGAINST Hipsters
America, we have an epidemic on our hands. This epidemic is spreading at the speed of light.
Recently a scientifically formulated double-blind study it revealed that 1% of Americans are succumbing to the most deadly disease in history. One percent of Americans are becoming hipsters. Hipsters are the worst subculture on the face of the earth. Hipsters are a contemporary subculture around the world. Hipsters strut around the streets in Arab headdresses and purposeless glasses. They wear a variety of clothing that they deem "hip". Hipsters believe that they have the best opinion and that their opinions regarding fashion are fact, not opinion. Such "hip" clothes include eye-scorching neon clothing as bright as the sun, every hipster must always have on tight jeans as otherwise they are simply not a hipster, after all, the number one rule in the Hipster Guide to Being Hip by Jane Austen is tight jeans are holy. Tight jeans are to hipsters as the holy trinity is to Christians. "Nearly 97.034% of cases we received in the past month in the trauma center here at the hospital are related to constriction of the arterial blood vessels
Such an instance has has affected me as well. One Darius B. walked up to me in Electronic Magazine while I was innocently sitting at my classroom computer wearing my bright red plastic aviators, plaid shirt and skinny jeans and told me, "Cyndric, you're a hipster." Now, Darius is all-knowing and would never tell me anything that wasn't true. So from that moment forward, I knew I was most definitely labeled.
too large or too tight, and I make sure to stay clean and clean-shaven. I shop online, at thrift stores, and wherever I can get a good deal. I don't buy jeans and then make holes in them or scrape them up to make people think I'm rugged and active, and I don't buy shoes and wear them down to make people think I skateboard (I don't have to; I've skated since I was 6). I wear a belt, I wear buttonup shirts and "artsy" T-shirts, clean socks, shoes (or flip-flops) and jeans that fit every day. Go ahead - call me a hipster. Odds are that you're doing the exact same thing. This is the only way I know how to be and I feel more comfortable be than anything. I don't own a pair of "shutter shades", I don't have slip-on Vans, leather boots, a vest, a V-neck shirt, or a pierced lip. What I do have is style. Or so people tell me (discounting Darius).
Many negative connotation float around concerning hipsters. It's widely believed "I won't that hipsters move from trend to trend while judged." claiming to be outside of mainstream culture.

How To Enjoy A Music Festival By Sarah K
Buy your pass ahead of time.
Know the line up.
Know the schedule.
Be prepared for the weather.
Wear comfortable shoes.
Lines can be crazy, and so can prices, if you wait til the last minute.
Nothing sucks more than spending a lot of money on tickets, just to realize there's no one playing that you want to see.
Figure out who's playing on what stages, and when, ahead of time. Map out where you want to go. It'll make navigating the festival a lot easier, and you won't end up missing the beginning of a show.
Especially in Texas, weather can be crazy. Check the forecast ahead of time. If it's going to be rainy, be prepared to get wet. If it's going to be sunny, put on sunscreen, pack extra to reapply, and bring water (or money to buy water inside, as some festivals don't allow outside food or drink).
You'll probably be doing a lot of walking, and your stylish Vans have zero arch support. If you want to look cool and keep your feet comfy, I recommend investing in some Converse.

Language is very important. and remember, contractions can quite literally be your lifesaver. Practice at home, at the bus station, at school; anywhere you can.
You'll have to acquire a G' name. 2-Pac is a popular one, as is Biggie. There's always shortening your name to the first letter of your first name, then adding an adjective. For example, there's Lil' J, or Big R. You can also go with just the adjective: Slim, Shorty, etc.

Free Jazz is Music A Brief "This I Believe" Essay by Sarah K
A n y t h i n g ca n b e m u s i c . A n y s o u n d, a n y n o i s e, a n y t h i n g t h a t y o u ca n p r o d u c e t h a t m a ke s y o u h a p p y a n d t h a t o t h e r s ca n l i s t e n to is music. That doesn't necessarily mean it's good music, or music that everyone enjoys listening to, but it's still music. You just have to open up your mind. The best example I have of really "farout" sounding stuff that's hard to accept as music is free jazz. I will say up front I am not a big fan of free jazz. I identify it as music, though, and I have a deep respect for free jazz artists. I have ever since seventh grade, when my friend Casey unthinkingly mocked it. We were partners in Mr. Hook's Technology and Underground Music in Society class (TUMS, for short). Part of the class was graphic design, and together Casey and I were working in photoshop on a mockposter for some long gone delta blues artist.
It was a free work day, the poster was due at the end of class, and we had all period to do whatever we needed to finish. Hook had put on some music for us to work to: The Art Ensemble of Chicago, a free jazz group. Free jazz originated when some artists were feeling too constricted by conventional jazz and bebop styles, so they started breaking free from normal jazz styles and basically doing their own thing, including using avant-garde scales and tempo changes. The result is pretty wild. About thirty minutes into class, Casey turned to me and said sarcastically, "I
like this 'music,'" throwing his fingers into air quotes. Something inside me snapped then. "'Music'?" I asked, mimicking his hand gesture. "Yeah," he said. "Come on, are you enjoying it?" "No," I admitted, "but I accept it as music." I launched into a completely impromptu rant about how anything could be music if you just "free your mind, maaan" and extend your thoughts about the boundaries of music, and what can or can't be classified as such. He laughed, but I think he understood what I was saying. Free jazz kind of became an inside joke between Casey and me, after that day. Hook
enjoyed a lot of crazy music, and since it was an underground music class, he played a lot of his personal music library for us. Hook's favorite genre was free jazz, though, I think, just based on how often he played it compared to other styles of music. There was one day of class, towards the end of the year, when Hook had a cold and he didn't feel like teaching. Being the cool teacher he is, instead of giving us busy work or something, he let us just hang out. "I'm going to put on some Art Ensemble of Chicago for mood music, though," he said. Casey, a few seats in front of me, turned around and just gave me a look.

The Look
By Cyndric M
How Cyndric became Awesome.
(An introspective photo-memoir)
Your look is who you are.
It's what you'll always be.
Where you've lived, who you've met, and what you've done define your look every second whether you like it or not.
This is an introspective photo-memoir on the evolution of Cyndric's look.
In the beginning,
Cyndric was born in San Jose - the largest city in NorCal and also the "capitol" of Silicon Valley, the technological powerhouse of the world.
Living here and around the Bay Area for about 11 years contributed much to Cyndric's trademark quirky attitude, due to San Jose's uniquely liberal and carefree environment. His house is actually in this picture!
Cyndric spent most of his free time in his living room playing Nintendo, building forts, messing around on the computer, jumping up and down on his couch, and messing with his sister.
Cyndric was (some say still is) a book-reading, sister-loving,
bus-riding child with hair resembling a ski-jump.
But he became self-aware through
music and began questioning his surroundings...
And then 2004 arrived! He was 10. Cyndric, for lack of a better word,
went He doesn't remember much about this time,
but the pictures remain.
Cyndric settled down following the divorce of his parents. One of them remarried into the military when he was 11 and took him all over the world... Fayetteville
And many other places...
Epilogue In In the middle of 7th grade before a move, Cyndric grew weary of the constant moving-around and opted to move and live with his Mom. He had been visiting over the summer and breaks and had grown to love Austin.
It was the best decision he had ever made.
The end? He hopes not.

that's intense! Average, every day people finally step up to the plate and tell readers about their most embarrassing moments. And to make it worse, we rate them. WARNING: The following may scar you for life, make you laugh unti you're in pain, or make you feel alot better about your embarrassing moments, but it will definitely keep you amused (at other people's expense that is...) When I was about the age, 13, me and a guy friend of mine were playing in my front yard. Just messing around and being silly; we were barly teenagers. Anyways, he happened to fall on top of me and another neighborhood kid saw it. She told everyone that we were having "sexual intercourse," I guess. It was really at first because alot of kids believed it suprisingly, and were constantly asking me about it and just didn't believe me when I explained what really happened. - Anonymous When I was in middle school, my principal walked up behind me and my friends right as I was saying a curse word. My principal, Mr. Rolinds, was a huge man with a huge 'pot-belly.' So, when Mr. Rolinds heard me, he used his belly and bumped me all the way to my next class. It's funny looking back on it, but at the time, it was horrible! - Anonymous
About a month after I started going out with this guy, we were walking towards each other after school. We hugged and talked a bit and right as I was about to leave, he grabbed my arm and pulled me back to him. As he whispered in my ear, "it's down," he zipped up my zipper for me. To top it off, all of my friends were standing there watching and laughing when it happened! - A.F. Austin, Tx One day after school at socer practice, we were running a shooting drill. When it was my turn to shoot, I struck the ball from a litlle inside the eighteen yard box. The ball sailed through the air, rebounded off of the side goal post and nailed me in my lower torso as I was running off the field. Apparently, this upperclassman saw the whole thing happen and brought it up in class the next day; the whole class talked and teased me about it. - Anonymous Houston, Tx

HUNTING THE By Darius B.
So, you wanna be a jock? Obviously you can't just jump on the stereotypes or hope you do well. If you're going to be a jock, you have to do it right. You can't copy a jock from New Hampshire's style if you live in Texas.
So how do you spot a jock? In Texas...
1. The Shirt
A jock's shirt is his most important feature. A jock has to advertise what team he supports. As seen on our friend to the right. In Texas, you want to wear a shirt that boldly says: TEXAS. Lonhorns are a definite addition to your overall jock appeal. IMPORTANT: Never, never wear an aggies shirt. Some might approve, but the vast majority of jocks will reject you!
2. The Short
Cargo shorts, cargo shorts, cargo shorts is all you need to know. Get that message in your head and you'll do fine! Green, tan, white, or brown; they all work! Wear it! IMPORTANT: Don't wear camo! That's a symbol of hunters, not JOCKS.
Photo of Jared Covell
3. The Shoes
Nikes, nikes, nikes, nikes. Get it in your head! If you're going to find a jock you can always look down. Decked out nike basketball shoes are always a good indicator of a jock. Either bleached white fancy puffed out shoes or colored Nikes with around almost fifty shocks on the bottom for maximum jumping. IMPORTANT: Never wear VANS, you'll give off a skater persona which is a big NO NO.
Nike Air Revolution http://sneakernews.com/
4. The MUSCLE
Now this may sound strange, but you just can't be a jock with muscle. Imagine a BONE THIN or morbiddly OBESE Jock walking around a school with his football jersey on. That's right, you can't! A jock has to have some BICEPS. Use every chance you can get to flex and show off your muscle. If anybody ever asks you for directions, use it as a chance to show off. FLEX while you point. No one will want to mess with you and you'll be the star of the school. IMPORTANT: Don't go overboard. You don't want the steroid chugging body-builder look, you want the lean football Jock look.
5. The Accessories
Acessorize it! You don't just need to wear a short a shirt and shoes. Spice it up a LONGHORN baseball cap. Wear OAKLEYS for the ultimate jock fashion statement. A livestrong band is great way to show you're a sporty guy in stylish yellow. Namebrand Underarmor socks, slightly above the ankle. beef up your hands with a thick gold ring such as your high school CLASS RING, a replica Superbowl MVP ring, or just a thick gold fashion statement on your fingers. IMPORTANT: Don't overdo it, a ring on each finger will just make you look FEMININE (one of the worst thing for a jock). Don't wear diamond rings either!

"under"), the band has played gigs at Threadgill's with other teen bands, including like The Fire Ants and Max & Henry. "All of [the bands U18 has found] are really talented," says Carl says. This includes Avenging Poor Yorick, according to Margaret Moser, representative for Next Up U18. "Avenging Poor Yorick is one of the finest teen bands in Austin," says Moser. "[They are] blessed with very talented musicians and a charismatic lead singer." In addition to the difficulties of being a teen band, the band has faced other problems — Carl was born without a left hand, a hindrance he's managed to overcome. "There were times where I thought I couldn't even play the guitar," he admits. "[When I started playing] I just tried and I learned how to do it. There are some limitations, but hopefully if I stay at I'll be able to maybe even learn things that other guitar players can't do." In addition to being a talented singer and guitar player, Carl also acts, a skill that has helped him in his stage performance. "Theatre and music are like the first forms of art and they just go hand in hand so well," he says. "When I'm on stage playing my guitar, I am acting, I'm performing, and when I'm onstage in a musical, I am singing and I am
using music to my advantage." "In short," jokes Kyle, "he likes acting more." All the band members have to balance the band and their other activities, including school, though Kyle says the band takes priority. "We do manage it pretty well, usually," attests Carl. "I get all my homework done, get good grades." Avenging Poor Yorick, which currently describes itself as "pop punk rock psychedelic funk" is still an evolving band. Whatever their style becomes, all the members agree they want to go further with APY. "We have to take her on a date first and then see where things go," says Carl, laughing, "but hopefully [we'll take the band] all the way, you know. Hopefully we'll score something big."

This quote is very popular and commonly used but is a bit on the deceptive side. A chip can be a disc used in games such as poker which usually represents money. If this is the case, the person would probably be more than excited to have this chip on their shoulder because they have more money verses without the chip. A chip is also, a thin fried piece of food. If a chip was on my shoulder, I would simply eat it and enjoy every minute of it. It seems the true definition of this phrase should be used towards someone who is lucky. This is so because if you have a chip on your shoulder, you are either richer than you were before, or peeved with one less worry because you know longer have to worry about feeding yourself. "Bite your tongue," is another commonly used phrase when trying to advise someone to avoid or stop talking. This quote makes someone more sense compared to others. Yet it's still a bit sketchy. Nine times out of ten, if one were to bit his/her tongue, the person would make some sort of grunt signify pain and say "ouch." If another person were around, the person would more than likely tell that person, they bit there tongue [as to not seem insane]. This would spark up a conversation revolving around how the incident happened, how much it hurt, and similar events which have happened in the past. You might wonder, who on earth would believe this hunk of nonsense? Me, that's who. Plus, most of the time, people don't accidentally bite their tongue when talking but when eating. If anything, biting your tongue would make you talk more, but without a doubt you wouldn't completely stop talking. Arguably the most popular quote of
all time, "Break a leg," often used in theater is used to wish performers the best of luck. Who on earth, tells a person to go break their leg right before they get on stage? That's a director's worst nightmare, to have an actor out minutes before their appearance. One might contest that the phrase is meant to relax the actor/actress by giving them something to laugh at, take their mind of what's in the future, and is said with the best intentions. To this I say, performers need to focus on what they are doing beforehand and sure, the person can relax and laugh all they want when in the hospital room with a broken leg. The phrase "Break a leg," should mean just that: break a leg. Many would argue that quotes like these are what make the world unique. The fact that we can take words, which have been given a meaning and make them mean something else totally unrelated is utterly intriguing. However, words are given a meaning for a reason, and it's not so that the meaning can be disregarded and used out of context. Words are given meaning to allow us to communicate successfully with one another and be understood with little effort. If we allow words to be demoralized then I can rightfully say, "You smell bad," and have it mean, "Your mother makes delicious cookies." We will no longer be able to successfully converse with one another and completely understand because could make things mean whatever they please. I truly believe, Russell was right in his reasoning. Quotes like, "Break a leg, a chip on your shoulder, and bite your tongue," are widely held among groups of people doesn't not mean the quote is logical.
The Case for Hipsters
Continued from pg. 17 or other music they've heard of. I like techno, alternative, classic rock, indie music, underground rap, and so much more. My answer to when people ask me what my favorite music and other music that people haven't heard of. My favorite music is and has always, despite recent hipster allegations, been "Everything except what's on the radio." What's on the Top 40 is often tasteless and appeals to people whose favorite music is what's "new" and popular, and that goes against every musical moral I hold. So you can hate filthy hipsters that live in closets on the Drag and say all sorts of stupid words, but I won't be judged for acting the only way I know how to. I, and others like me, are hip; and it's a world away from the veil of American Idol, P. Diddy, Clay Aikin, and hating people because of the way their hair looks like.
The Case Against Hipsters Continued from pg.18 Al Gore himself made a statement about the subject, "If we don't act now, there won't be a tomorrow. No cities, just hipsters. Forget what I said about global warming! We need a hipster trash service, to come and collect all the tossed out hipsters or else there won't be a tomorrow for our children. Come on Washington!" Alec Baldwin, Al Gore, Michael Moore, PETA and Dick Cheney are all banding together to save the environment from the possible hipster threat. The Hipster themselves won't listen. They're in denial, one of the earliest symptoms of the disease. It's simply sad as shown by Cyndric a hipster at LASA High School in Austin, Texas as he said, "Well guess what! I don't care if you say I stole styles from everybody else and have gross hair and wear
way too skinny jeans because I'm hip! I'm so hot! I'm hotter than everyone else! I am Hipster and I am beautiful! We're here, we're hip, get used to it!" While the specimen may think he is cool and hip because of his style and the way he acts. Frankly, he is not. He is a Hipster and saying that he doesn't care about what people think doesn't change anything; he will continue to offend wherever he goes and be a toll on society for as long as he goes around telling people that he is hotter than them. America, do not ignore what I'm telling you for I'm not the only one; various other subcultures are angry at hipsters for stealing their unique aspects. A member of the hippy subculture says, "Hey! Man! Not cool! You stole our clothes and stuff and hair and just not cool! Stop." A member of the punk subculture says, "Whoa, whoa hipsters back off! Those shoes and jeans… they are ours! You best be stopping stealing our stuff." A member of the Arab subculture exclaimed in a language I did not understand and therefore will translate to the best of my ability, "hipsters! You stole our headdresses! And you're wearing them around your necks! This is wrong… this is oh so very wrong!" The disease must be cured. The disease must be stopped. Hipster can't go on and continue to run rampant through our streets. Hipsters are pests and must be removed from our homes to protect the average American like you and me. Writers of the Declaration of Independence themselves agreed writing, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men, excluding hipsters are created equal…"

One day, she is startled to find a kindred spirit in a young slave up for auction. Arin's eyes seem to defy everything and everyone. Following her instinct, Kestrel buys him—with unexpected consequences. It's not long before she has to hide her growing love for Arin.
But he, too, has a secret, and Kestrel quickly learns that the price she paid for a fellow human is much higher than she ever could have imagined.
Set in a richly imagined new world, The Winner's Curse by Marie Rutkoski is a story of deadly games where everything is at stake, and the gamble is whether you will keep your head or lose your heart.

It's fairly obvious that Sam Currie is determined to be Westminster's voice in West Lancashire if you read his "Reporter" Election Special. It's dedicated to anti-Corbyn and anti-Cooper and nowt else. No strong and powerful personal opinions to negate Corbyn and Cooper, just opportunist photographs and what he does mention are transport and flooding, issues that sit squarely at his own party doors by the austerity cutting from Westminster and being fought by Rosie Cooper who states "It has been an honour and privilege to serve the people of West Lancashire for the last 12 years. I believe my record on issues shows that I have kept my commitment to being West Lancashire's voice in Westminster, not Westminster's voice in West Lancashire. At this election I am standing on my record of delivery with the promise of more. The choice for West Lancashire voters on 8 June is who is the person that is prepared to stand up and fight for you?
It is clear that the Conservatives want to make this a one issue election. Your future, the future of West Lancashire is about much more than one issue. It is about the NHS having a future and social care being available to all not just those who can afford it. I have a long standing record of campaigning to protect our local health services. It is about providing dignity for older people in retirement by protecting their incomes and entitlements, such as keeping the pensions triple lock, and the winter fuel allowance, which I am committed to doing.
Our young people should be looking to the future with hope not despair. I am ambitious for a future of opportunity in which we invest in our schools not cutting, in which we provide high quality jobs and make affordable housing available. For many working families their living standards have been hit hard and under the Conservatives are getting worse with work becoming more insecure, wages falling in real terms and the cost of living rising. For those reasons, now more than ever the people of West Lancashire need an MP who is willing to fight their corner, who will be a strong, independent voice for this community.
As the eldest daughter of deaf parents, I was their voice. My family worked hard and played by the rules, wanting a fair chance and a fair reward. I am fighting to deliver a better future for West Lancashire residents as I fought for my family.

If so, below are some important facts and information regarding separations. We will clarify a few common misconceptions about separations and then help you to understand exactly what a Separation Agreement is and what it needs to cover.
First, there really is no such thing as filing for 'legal separation' in Canada. You are legally separated as soon as you and your spouse are 'living separate and apart'. However, the term 'legal separation' is commonly used to describe the contract that is created between two spouses at the time of their separation.
Second, there is no time limit to being separated, and a divorce will never automatically occur after or because of a separation. In fact, you can remain indefinitely separated from your spouse without ever filing for divorce. The only legal reason to obtain a divorce is if one partner wishes to remarry.
In order to file for divorce in Canada you must first complete a full one year separation period. The only exception to this rule is if your divorce is filed under the grounds of adultery or cruelty.
One Year Separation Period
As noted above, there are no time limits to a separation in Canada. However, if you are using separation as grounds for your divorce, then you must be separated from your spouse for a minimum of one full year. You can begin the application process for divorce the day that you are separate, but the courts will not grant you your divorce until the full year has passed.
If during this one year separation period you and your spouse get back together, this reconciliation will not affect your one year separation period unless you are back together for a period, or multiple periods, equaling more than 90 days. The purpose of this law is to allow couples a chance to try and work on repairing their marriage, without delaying a divorce in the event that their attempts are not successful. If you do indeed reconcile for a period of or exceeding 90 days and then separate again, you will be required to begin a new full one year separation period before a divorce can be granted.
Lastly, being separated from your spouse does not always mean that you must be living at separate addresses. Being separated means that you and your spouse must be living separate lives. From the courts perspective living at separate address is the easiest way to prove this. In the event that separate addresses are not possible (due to finances, children, etc.) you may reside at the same address as your spouse, and still be separated. In this type of situation the court will require that the couple prove that while they were dwelling at the same address they no longer lived as a couple. This can be complicated and usually requires legal representation.
What is a Separation Agreement?
A separation agreement is a legally binding contract created between two spouses, at the time of their separation. This contract sets out each party's rights on issues such as: child custody/access, property, debts and child/spousal support. The law leaves the decision about having a written separation agreement up to each individual couple. However, it is always strongly recommended as it can be very hard to prove any verbal agreements made by a couple, in a court of law.
Ideally, it is best to have a separation agreement drafted by a lawyer. It is not a rule that a separation agreement must be drafted by a lawyer, and couples are entitled to draft their own agreements. Should you choose to create your own separation agreement it is important to check all your provincial requirements so that you know how to successfully write an agreement which will be binding and enforceable by the courts. It can be very difficult and costly to fight for unclear written agreements in court, should one spouse stop respecting the terms of your arrangement.
Drafting your Separation Agreement
There are many issues that need to be considered when creating a separation agreement. Separation agreements are treated seriously by the courts and any terms that are clearly unreasonable will not be accepted. It is important to note that judges will not usually change any property divisions or spousal support terms agreed to in writing, even if it is something they wouldn't have set themselves. Due to this, it is important that you are fully educated about all your legal rights and are completely comfortable and confident before signing a separation agreement.
In the event that you and your spouse cannot agree on some or all of the items in a separation agreement, you can contact a mediator or retain separate lawyers in order to help you resolve your differences.

So we have ten days to spend in the Tacoma/Seattle area. What to see, what to see?
Well, what kind of stuff do we like? Put us outside and we're both happy. Show us a few animals, and throw in an ice cream cone and we're on top of the world. Guess what we found?
Northwest Trek came up on every internet search I tried for things to do in the area, and it's only about fifteen minutes from my dad's house. Score.
All of these American animals were nothing new to me, but Brian has never seen most of them before. Grizzly bears? Bison? Cougars? Wow.
We grow 'em big here, and not just in Texas.
The park was beautiful, full of information, and loaded with spring color.
We've been told over and over how lucky we are to have hit a whole week with fantastic weather. Apparently that never happens here.
Somebody forgot to tell the cougar to come out and lay in the sun while he could. His cat buddies are gonna give him a hard time for this.
The grizzlies were all over it.
They roamed all over, scratching their backs on the trees and rolling around to soak up the heat.
Just like Brian does when the sun comes out.
We watched the animal keepers as they made the rounds feeding the big birds and cleaning their cages. The big snowy owls were very cute. The bigger but younger male was all about protecting his girlfriend, and made sure to stay between her and the staff.
While the golden eagles just stood there looking menacing.
The barn owls swooped and flew in circles. The nets don't make for easy photography though. I'd really love to have a shot of their giant wing spans as this guy flew about.
Your price of admission includes a ride on the tram through the open fields where they keep whole herds of herbivores. I'm glad they clarified which animals were in there. I was a little worried about the possibility of mountain lions or wolves popping in through the windows.
Some of those little kids looked like tasty cougar snacks to me.
I think the raccoon agreed. He looked a little shifty as he watched us drive by. Let's just hope he was only after the kids' lunches.
The raccoon was finally distracted by the honking swan, who lost her mate last winter and looked at us as we passed by, maybe hopeful that we knew where he went and could we please pass a message to him to get his swan ass home?
On the other hand, the mountain sheep ewes were very content to hang out without their men.
One of whom was on the other side of the hill, no doubt scouting for some new ewes.
Love 'em and leave 'em. That's his game.
He looks pretty high maintenance anyway, so I don't think his herd of girls are all that put out about him wandering off. Seriously, who needs a man around who's hair always looks so much better than your own?
Pretty soon we came up on the big headliner of the show.
The bison were camped out across the middle of the road, taking up space and not caring a bit.
And who are we to argue? When a one ton hunk of buffalo beef stands in the road and blocks traffic, what are you going to do?
You're going to wait.
Pretty soon he'll wander off and find himself a nice, luxurious patch of dust to wallow around in and you can drive by on your merry way.
These are majestic and beautifully powerful animals.
Try not to laugh as you hear them making happy sounds as they roll in the dust.
It's OK if you giggle a little bit though. You'll stop laughing when you see the little calves teetering along behind their mothers.
It's hard to laugh when you're too busy saying, "Awww!"
Our second full day in Washington was a big success. We had beautiful sunshine, an education, a nice ride through the hills where we saw some truly impressive animals, and to top it all off we even got that ice cream cone.
Day two was a complete success.

"Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" ended season 3 with episode "Rule No. 91: Run Toward What Scares You" and each of the ladies did just that. No one went quietly and they took their sweet time, other than Delia. Her conversion had been in progress way before this episode, forced on her by a court who ordered community service for her behavior in Palm Springs.
We left her comfortable with her pro bono work, which actually inspired, after complaining about it being beneath her. She was able to hear a truly heartfelt apology from Albert and share an after-hours drink with him. Who else was scared their affair would blossom again? How did he get himself to the point of empathy? He attended a currently popular workout-meets-meditation class in LA, where he met angry Jo. Now that's a duo that could be intriguing next season.
Jo finally gave in and addressed her anger issues, in the aforementioned class. She put on gear and punched away at people, trying to cope with Zooey who had not stopped online bullying. We learned Frumpkis was still at the New Mexico rehab center and doing well. Man, he just disappeared off the show, right? Still no Scott, who is somewhere hiding from Jo's jealousy and anger issues.
Phoebe faced her desire for jet-set living with the money that comes with that vs. being in a marriage with JD and have it be enough. By enough I mean a reasonable amount of schmoozing to bring in some cash and boost her husband's profile as an artist. Unfortunately Phoebe's got to go all-in and the job offer from Gemma will get her the lifestyle she loves. Hey, someone's got to pay for her expensive childcare, right?
She got a taste of it in Palm Springs and things haven't slowed down from there. It appeared at episode's end that she chose that over her husband, but "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" has a way of changing direction pretty quickly. The rest of the couple's story included JD, not Phoebe taking Molly and dissolving into a puddle of happiness and compliance. A three-way in front of his wife? Come on folks. What happened to his social anxiety disorder?
Barbara's search for work seemed interminable and she got a job only after she spoke truthfully in an interview. Was it a great job? Probably not, but she'd be writing and creating new ideas for an in-flight magazine. She took it. As we hoped, she was dating Darrell, a true gentleman worthy of her. How did it all end for her? See below!
As for Abby McCarthy, well she wrote a fabulous novel that had the girlfriends panting for me, even declaring she would be the next EL James. Unfortunately the insufferable millennial agent made scrap the baseball setting and rewrite the story as something akin to "Outlander". The agent might be more in tune her age group, but mature women would gobble up what Abby wrote.
At the conclusion of the show, she sounded like the old Abby. Throughout the episode she was using the fake voice and false hilarity that when combined with a lot of alcohol made her sound childish, never mind foolish. Mike Brady and his wife were not running to lawyers to bang out a settlement, and after the kids got out of control they decided he should sleep at home for a couple of nights to settle things down. Abby's certainly been there and done that, and finally did the right thing for her.
While Mike can't understand how fragile she's been, at least Abby did. She voted for stability over romantic excitement. Her tendencies to ignore the warning signs were kicked to the curb with Mike. He was not a happy camper, but Abby's ready to play to her strengths, not her weaknesses. How? That was the best story of the night and it came at the very end.
"Lady Parts" is her idea for an online community that would squeeze into the space left by She/She which will be folded after its parent company lost a multi-million dollar lawsuit against it. Presumably the writers used the Peter Thiel financed takedown of Gawker Media as their model. Abby proposed a partnership to Barbara who quickly agreed with Abby that their talents needed to breathe, free from the constraints of their current situations.
As Abby told Mike, she would typically prop him up and hope for her happy ending, making someone else's dilemma her mission. Now her mission is to fix herself. Will it fail? We'll find out when the series returns in the summer. Here's hoping she's left tipsy-flighty Abby behind.

"What you do in this world is a matter of no consequence. The question is what can you make people believe you have done" ~Sherlock Holmes, A Study in Scarlet.
Emily Schott wants nothing more than satiation; a lust for destruction, for carnality and, most importantly, vengeance on those who snatched away her ability to trust. Desperate measures and an unprecedented incident leave her a shell of her former self - her antidote? A glass of vodka, a drunk plea, and sin in a Westwood suit.
Life in Baker Street continues. The unattainable man finds himself doubting his own, cold reason, challenged by a shy smile, a mess of scars, and a brilliant mind. Millie Shon, the subconscious, John Watson, the heart, and Sherlock Holmes, the head, can only watch as a new, ruthless partnership pushes the boundaries of crime itself.
