Many techniques for management of hypertrophic scars and keloids have been proven through extensive use, but few have been supported by prospective studies with adequate control groups. Several new therapies showed good results in small-scale trials, but these have not been repeated in larger trials with long-term follow-up. This article reports a qualitative overview of the available clinical literature by an international panel of experts using standard methods of appraisal. The article provides evidence-based recommendations on prevention and treatment of abnormal scarring and, where studies are insufficient, consensus on best practice. The recommendations focus on the management of hypertrophic scars and keloids, and are internationally applicable in a range of clinical situations. These recommendations support a move to a more evidence-based approach in scar management. This approach highlights a primary role for silicone gel sheeting and intralesional corticosteroids in the management of a wide variety of abnormal scars. The authors concluded that these are the only treatments for which sufficient evidence exists to make evidence-based recommendations. A number of other therapies that are in common use have achieved acceptance by the authors as standard practice. However, it is highly desirable that many standard practices and new emerging therapies undergo large-scale studies with long-term follow-up before being recommended conclusively as alternative therapies for scar management.

How to Get Away with Marriage
When London architect Hugh Barlow, Lord Bolton, barged into Lady Isabella Halwick's parlor to tell her that he wouldn't build her so much as a stick fort after she threatened to end his career, he didn't expect to stay at her home in Dorset for a week. He also didn't expect to be surrounded by stampeding sheep, indecent statues, terrible family mottoes, and the nosiest town busybodies he could imagine. And, he never expected falling in love with the last woman on earth he'd have ever chosen.
"For that, I receive an apology? Lady Isabella, in the few days I've known you, you've threatened my career, held me hostage, implied you had relations of a dubious nature with a willful sheep, and set your sister Lady Caroline against me. Remarking upon my smile is not even worth mentioning amongst your offenses."
Hugh Barlow, Lord Bolton
Wicked Ways to Win Your Wife
When intrepid but lonely Hannah Lawrence travels from America to meet the older brother of her deceased husband, she is outraged to find the brilliant, misanthropic Lord Alec Halwick alive and accusing her of being the fourth woman that month to have claimed she married him. After learning that Alec was injured and cannot remember the last six months of his life—a terrible blow to a man who prides himself on his extreme intelligence and self-reliance—Hannah convinces him that she is indeed his wife, a woman he married because of a business exchange with her father. Alec had told her two things when they married: (1) love has nothing to do with marriage; and, (2) she should let him know when she would like a child and he would fulfill his bedroom responsibilities at that time. Alec would prefer to stand by his words, but he finds himself increasingly attracted to the unsinkable and practical woman who becomes his unlikely champion. When he begins an unconventional courtship of her, a secret of Hannah's comes to light that threatens to destroy their burgeoning relationship. After believing the worst, will Alec be able to win back the love of his wife?.
Caroline looked at Hannah speculatively and ignored Alec's huff of impatience. "Tell me, Miss Laurence. Was my brother in love with you when you married?"
"What does love have to do with marriage?" Alec asked with a small sneer.
Hannah snorted. "Ah," she said, drawing out the sound, "never was there a truer summation of our nuptials."

The Rogue to Ruin
Nash Westfall, would-be earl and former naval hero, is determined to win back the title and fortune his father lost, and he needs to marry a daughter of a lord a to get Parliament's approval. With the clock ticking and two months left before he must produce a bride, he settles upon Lady Marianne Bingham, a widow who seems perfect on paper. Unbeknownst to him and almost everyone else, after her bad marriage, she is determined to remain unmarried, is suffering from an increasing courtesy book problem (whatever that may be), and is secretly making a living creating risqué paintings that have become all the rage in the Ton. When Nash discovers her secret, will they love each other enough to risk their dreams?
"I'm Lady Bingham," she said.
Nash had no idea what emotion his face was conveying but he tried to school it into something neutral. For some reason the memory of being too near a cannon blast and being blown ten feet on his back came to mind. "A pleasure, my lady. I'm Nash Westfall." He made a small bow and took the opportunity to close his eyes and swallow hard before he righted himself. This, this is Lady Bingham? The model hostess? The woman with the flawless reputation? A phantom BOOM! followed by the thwick of splintering wood reverberated in his ears.
Maybe she's been imbibing. In the morning. A lot. Would it be better if she were foxed in the morning and yelling about prostitution or sober in the morning and yelling about prostitution?
Nash leaned toward the former, but he wasn't certain.

Yesterday I re-installed Mailbox after about a 3 week hiatus in which I went back to old-school Mail.app.
First, Mail.app is a great mail program, don't get me wrong. The reason I went back to it was it's "just works" thing it does where emails load correctly, contacts work together right, etc. But, after just a few weeks of using it I really felt like my email was getting out of control again. I got a little spoiled by Mailbox, really my email was "back to normal." Hundreds of emails were in my Inbox, some to be buried forever as I was not going to scroll down through each one and….no, not going to do that.
Mailbox, however, with it's deal with email later philosophy really helps me be in control of consuming my email. The problem with Mail.app is that when I get an email I don't have time to consume it right then. I'm an extremely focused individual, I do not need to be carried off into email when I'm trying to do something else. The real kicker feature of Mailbox is the ability to delay an email until another time when you are most likely to be able to consume it.
So, after really getting a chance to compare a traditional email application to Mailbox, there is real value in being able to delay the consumption of email in order to remain in control of it. I'm much happier with Mailbox, even given it's youth and lack of maturity in composing emails.
Checkout http://www.tabsnooze.com/ which let's you delay content you open in tabs until another time….it's great, does the same thing.


A.B. Simpson once called "reckon" "one of the key-words of Scripture."* Reckoning, or reconciling, is what one does when debts come due and it's time to even accounts.
This may be because we've been living on debt without end, seemingly without limit. This is true nationally and personally in many areas. We've been doing this long enough, few seem to have any sense of gravity that a day of reckoning is coming, much less having any sense of what that would look like. The days of "deficits don't matter" have their limit.
This is also true of our accounts with God. Some people say "Where is the promise of his coming?" as if it's not to be found. The Bible calls them scoffers. God's Word says that God is "not slack" concerning his promises. He will deliver. It is better to reconcile with God on terms of his mercy instead of his justice and severity.

Six thinkers reflect on last month's conference on urbanization from a social-justice perspective.
BUENOS AIRES — More than 35,000 people gathered last month in Quito, Ecuador, to take part in discussions and debates at the U. N.'s Habitat III conference, the one time every two decades that national officials, local authorities, academics and civil society groups get together to discuss the world's cities.
Yet while the formal conference ultimately adopted a single strategy document — known as the New Urban Agenda — the discussions and debates in Quito were far from homogenous. Indeed, multiple events, including an Alternative Habitat III Forum, took place in the Ecuadorean capital and elsewhere aimed at offering a critical counterpoint to the official sessions and the New Urban Agenda itself.
In the aftermath of those four days in Quito, then, where do these critical perspectives stand — and how are social movements in the region planning to move forward? Citiscope and the Observatorio Latino Americano (OLA) asked five Latin Americans and one Spaniard about their experiences at Habitat III, at both official and alternative events, from a social-justice perspective.
This is the first part of a two-article series; see the second part here. Both articles have been translated from Spanish and edited slightly.
The first question: What is your reaction to the multiple events, both official and unofficial, that you attended at Habitat III?
Most evident in those days in Quito was the greater interest raised by the Alternative Forum, compared to the official meeting of Habitat III. The official meetings I attended were characterized by the yielding of content to formalities and by the evident lack of questioning of those conventionalisms. I had the unusual experience of attending a high-level meeting on urban land where, with the exception of embarrassing questions from the public, basic concepts such as "land market" and "land policy" were completely absent.
On the contrary, it was evident that both the Alternative Forum and the "resistance" meetings to Habitat III assembled significant discussions on the important issues of urban development and human settlements in our time.
It is possible that for reasons of proximity there was a greater presence of experts and stakeholders in the Latin American urban question, which definitely helped focus debates and reflections. But what was especially remarkable was the commitment of these encounters with the local governments and their citizens rather than their allegiance to national and diplomatic bureaucracies. Hence the greater interest in these alternative events for those who sought in Quito convincing answers to the problems generated by urban development in our time and place.
Among the intensity of the scheduled activities and the many casual encounters, a programme of resistance to the processes of inequality that cut through our territories emerged. Beyond the notable differences between the different actors and the issues discussed at the official, alternative and resistance Habitat III events, we are interested in reflecting about what they share — the convergences.
In the first place, because of the fact that national governments will likely pay little attention to the commitments in the New Urban Agenda, there was a shared belief that social movements together with local governments and universities in the streets are the ones who must ensure the fulfillment of those commitments. These days together gave us the shared experience of being part of a collective that has much to do and that is ready to work.
Second, these events shared the need to include in the New Urban Agenda a series of issues that were absent. In particular, we should mention the absence of critical debate about the shortcomings of the public management of urban land in the face of exclusionary land markets, as well as the weakness of the right to the city approach given the persistent sectoralization of new housing policies or titling and urban regularization.
In short, the impression is that it was worth it — not only in the sense of what was produced during that week but also the exchanges and documents made in relation to Habitat III. For instance, the evaluation of how Habitat II commitments had an impact on public policies … allowed for a truly Latin American platform of common dialogue.
During 17-20 October, Habitat III, organized by the U. N. in a closed space, was held in Quito. Before, during and after, parallel activities took place in many different places. Unlike the U. N.'s "walled city" — to enter, one needed identification (passport), permit (visa) and caching (customs) — there were "open city" venues.
In these other spaces, the most interesting discussions took place. First it was Bogotá, on 14-15 October, where mayors representing United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG) met to discuss their role in the world summit. Next, there was a large group of women who gathered in Quito a day before the official event, to build an agreed set of positions.
Why did this happen? Because neither the municipalities nor the citizen has a place in the U. N.— and worse still, in its commitments. The U. N. is an organization of nations that follows a set methodology: international cooperation designs the policies, national governments commit to them, and municipalities are bound to respect them. That is to say, the production of thought is global, while the actions are local. This weakens municipal autonomy, while the international cooperation is safely uncommitted to anything.
With women, it's a similar case. As civil society, they are not represented in UN-Habitat. This raises a paradox: To design an urban agenda without actors, without subjects, without social movements, without political parties, even though it is clear that a city without citizens does not exist.
On the same days of the United Nations meeting, there were two parallel areas of debate on the future of cities: one called "Habitat III Resistance", which held a set of roundtables and a trial on evictions driven by the action of real estate capital and by public policies in cities.
The second, the Alternative Habitat III Forum, was conceived as a structured space for debate where local authorities, popular movements, academics, officials and specialists from 41 countries participated in seven seminars and 40 roundtables, leading to the production of the Quito Manifesto.
Attendance at this event was massive, and its impact on social networks was impressive, well above the official meeting. As a result, a group was organized and able to devise a plan toward the future.
Forty years of Habitat — of diagnoses, commitments and declarations — have passed already, without planning that is able to ensure just and more-inclusive cities. Without emancipating the right to housing from wealth that guarantees profit, making it possible to access all tangible and intangible assets linked to urban diversity. Forty years of Habitat, and today we have another version (not new) of the international meeting convened by the U. N.
On the one hand, representatives of national governments (without cities, without civil society, without the actual builders of the city) gathered to approve a previously agreed document, where problems appear as natural events because they do not identify the social processes causing them, nor the social, economic and political actors hindering their transformation. Will it be possible to move toward another city without knowing what defines it and hinders its transformation?
On the other hand, there is the excluded city, built at the margins of profit relations with actors who transform it to meet their needs through agglomeration. The city of the popular sectors — women, youths, academics, migrants, militants, those who seek a just environment and democracy to live and to reproduce — made itself present at the same place and time as national governments repeated the official ritual that justifies the urban status quo.
First impression: Skepticism, distrust, irritation, not being taken into account, rhetoric, evasion of the real problems of cities and territories, inane speeches, exclusion. We refer to participants, representatives of cities and their governments, social organizations, NGOs, committed professionals, young people with curiosity and desire to do something practical and fair for populations with few rights and multiple vulnerabilities. The official conference justified the previous discomfort.
Second impression: The influx of tens of thousands, mostly young people, interested people, activists, critics. The presence of local leaders linked to popular movements and their aspirations. Professionals disappointed by Habitat II and Habitat III who say, "We've had enough." UN-Habitat has been degraded, and it is likely it will disappear or be reformed in the short term. Unfortunately, that won't guarantee a change in favour of the social majorities because, if it is remotely controlled by the national governments, the change will not really intend anything to change.
Third impression: The virtue of Habitat III is to demonstrate that there exists a social, cultural, even political force calling for a change of course in territorial policies, in order for them to reduce spatial injustice and aspire to strong local governments that are close to the people. This force emerged on the peripheries of Habitat in a call for justice, for resistance to urbanism's financial outbursts, for bringing together social movements, professional groups and local governments.
In spite of the difficulties involved in understanding everything that happened in Habitat III, I have the impression that the city was prepared to stage the formal adoption of a document, which we call the New Urban Agenda — an important document that will affect most of the urban actions carried out within our cities for the next 20 years.
This official side of Habitat III has been described as "successful", not because it included the discussions, criticisms and questions that were raised along its production (finished before being adopted in Ecuador), but because it is a new agreement that will maintain the status quo.
I also have the feeling that the objects of debate and the ways in which they were discussed at the official summit were very different from what was considered in the alternative events. In the official summit, companies and national governments dominated. A grim and inaccurate language was used, with little analysis of the concepts it put forth or their negative effects. For example, the model of global urbanization is progressing quickly and boundlessly.
On the contrary, at the alternative venues, the axis of controversy were cities and local governments, with open and direct opinions, without rhetorical or generalist routines, and with deep criticisms against economic growth and positions of power.
Finally, in all the activities that took place in Quito, there were public appeals to political action against everything that prevents progress toward environmental sustainability and social justice — even though on the official side, these positions were clearly incompatible with the nature of the document adopted.

5.1 Alice in Wonderland (2010)
The White Queen is one of the first characters to be seen in the story. She first appears in the drawing room just beyond the titular looking-glass as an animate chess piece unable to see or hear Alice. The Queen is looking for her daughter Lily; Alice helps this by lifting the White Queen onto the table, leading her to believe she was thrown up by an invisible volcano.
The White Queen's Castle, Marmoreal
When Alice meets the Red Queen and joins the chess game, she takes the place of a white pawn (Lily) who is still too young to play. She does not meet the White Queen as a human-sized character until the fifth square. The White Queen , curiously, lives backwards in time to a degree, due to the fact she lives through the eponymous looking glass. She screams in pain until, rather then because, she pricks her thumb through her brooch, and she tells Alice of the King's messenger who has been imprisoned for a crime he will later be tried for and perhaps (but not definitely) commit in the end. The White Queen also claims to be over a hundred and one years old. When Alice finds this is hard to believe, the Queen responds that in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" and counsels her to practice the same skill. The meeting ends oddly, with the Queen seeming to turn into a bespectacled sheepwhositsat a counter as Alice passes into the next square on the board.
Later in Chapter Nine, the White Queen appears with the Red Queen, posing a series of typical/Wonderland/Looking-Glass questions ("Divide a loaf by a knife: what's the answer to that?"), and then celebrating Alice's promotion from pawn to queen. When that celebration goes awry, the White Queen seems to flee from the scene by disappearing into a tureen of soup. Alice proceeds to 'capture' the Red Queen and checkmate the Red King, ending the game.
The White Queen appeared in the Tim Burton's 2010 film, Alice in Wonderland. Her given name in the film is Mirana of Marmoreal. She is stated to be the rightful ruler of Underland, but her eldest sister Iracebeth, The Red Queen, ursurped and claimed the crown as her own. The film makes no reference to a White King, and as such it is likely this version of the White Queen is unmarried and rules alone. It is interesting to note that she is able to complete the potion that allows Alice to shrink by spewing in her own "Wishful Thinking" for the final instillment of the needed ingredient. When she moves, she does so gracefully, giving the illusion that she is perpetually dancing. In Tarrant's flashback, she was at Hightopp village when the Jabberwock burned it down. She was led out of the village, but lost her crown out of confusion. She is later seen when Bayard comes to tell her that Alice is at the Red Queen's castle at Salazen Grum. She forgives him as Alice will also find the Vorpal sword. When Alice goes to Marmoreal on the Bandersnatch, she hands over Mirana the Vorpal sword, which is now with the armor. Since Alice is too big, she makes Pishsalver with disgusting ingredients. After Alice drinks it, she becomes the right size. She is then at the chessboard-like battlefield with her army when she gives Iracebeth one more chance for peace, but she declines. Mirana then set forth her chosen champion Alice to battle the Jabberwocky. After Alice slays the Jabberwock, she reclaims her crown and banishes Iracebeth and the Knave to the Outlands. It is also to note that Alice referenced "six impossible things before breakfast" twice in the film. The six impossible things are:
Number 1: There's a potion that can make you shrink (Pishsalver)
Number 2: and a cake that can make you grow (Upelkuchen)
Number 3: Animals can talk.
Number 4: Cats can disappear (The Cheshire Cat)
Number 5: There's a place called Wonderland.
Number 6: I (Alice) can slay the Jabberwocky.
The White Queen in the film is completely different from the White Queen in the books.
In the Wii game based on Tim Burton's movie, the White Queen is hinted to be more powerful than she appears in the movie. As Alice journeys to Marmoreal with her new friends, various characters begin to comment on the White Queen and her dwellings. Mallymkun states that "the Hatter rather likes the White Queen, but she can be as terrifying as her sister when she wants to be." Chessur also comments that he hopes the White Queen isn't cross with him anymore.
In the video game American McGee's Alice, the White Queen, like all of her kingdom's citizens, is portrayed as an anthropomorphic chess piece. Alice arrives to rescue her too late only to see the Queen has been executed by a guillotine at the hands of the Red Kingdom. But at the White King's request, a pawn he had issued to Alice is dropped on the proper square, transforming it into a reincarnation of the White Queen, as the rules of Chess dictate.
In the novel series "The Looking Glass Wars", she is re-imagined as Queen Genevieve, the mother of Alyss. She was killed by Redd (The Red Queen).
In the 1951 movie when the flowers are singing - there is a white flower that resembles the White Queen and it is the same with the red rose that resembles the Red Queen.

3 The Mad Tea Party


So let's think how the firm's costs will look like.
let's think a little bit about a process of manufacturing something.
Suppose we're making tee shirts.
the quantity that the firm is producing will of course increase.
But what happens to the extra output that the extra worker provides.
the additional units exactly equal to the previous worker?
Well, our assumption is that this is probably not the case.
In the beginning it's probably the case that as we increase labor.
greater amounts in other word the marginal output is increasing.
Why is this the case because we have some gains from specialization?
what the one worker can make.
because of that, the marginal output is actually increasing.
from that point on, we have diminishing marginal productivity.
of the additional worker actually starts to go down.
This does not mean that the workers aren't making t shirts, they are.
Because any gains from specialization have already been utilized.
that ability to help gets smaller and smaller.
we have an upward sloping part because of gains from specialization.
Then a downward sloping part due to the law of diminishing marginal productivity.

Winehouse chooses to stand by her man as he fights "Some Unholy War" ("I would be behind him ... with strength he didn't know").
Despite admitting that she has a drinking problem, the singer's pride and lack of commitment keep her from going to "Rehab" ("I ain't got 70 days/ ... There's nothing you can teach me"). She coins a new derivative of the f-word on "Me & Mr. Jones," which compounds its offensiveness by using crass slang. It's a vulgar term for male genitalia that also appears on the title track, a song that gives nods to cocaine and marijuana ("You love blow, and I love puff"). On "Tears Dry on Their Own" a woman hates to see an adulterous affair end and anticipates becoming "some next man's other woman soon." Speaking of unfaithfulness, she tells a guy bent on marrying her that he crossed her mind recently while she was "in the final throes" with an old flame ("You Know I'm No Good"). "Just Friends" finds a couple sneaking around for sex. That cut also mentions alcohol and repeats the s-word.
This British singer sports tattoos of pinup girls, has a history of self-mutilation and isn't opposed to performing drunk. Winehouse's lyrics on the bluesy Back to Black are no better. Parental advisory aside, its ideas about romance are a recipe for failure and suffering.

Q: How many times can I hook into the same action? I have a theme which includes some setup, using after_setup_theme but I'd like to write my own functions which also need to run after_setup_theme. I'd prefer to keep my stuff in a separate file. Can I call after_setup_theme multiple times?

A: My suggestion would be to have a "master" function, if you will, that calls all your other functions.  That way you only have to hook into that action one time.
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'master_function' );
function master_function()
{
    func_a();
    func_b();
    func_c();
    func_d();
    func_e();
}
function func_a(){ /* Do something */}
function func_b(){ /* Do something */}
function func_c(){ /* Do something */}
function func_d(){ /* Do something */}
function func_e(){ /* Do something */}

This has the added benefit of being able to return values that you can use in subsequent function calls.

A: Yes, you may add as many actions to the hook as you wish. Just try it.

A: WordPress hooks work like Hollywood: you don't call them, they call you. But unlike Hollywood, they keep calling everyone on the list.
It's normal for an action or a filter to have multiple functions hooked to it, from different plugins, or even just different functions in the WordPress core that all do something specific. It is not only possible, but even good practice, as it means your code gets clearer (each function does only one thing) and it's easier to disable one specific piece of functionality by unhooking it.
Remember that you can also play with the priorities of hooks: if you want to run both functionA() and functionB() in the after_setup_theme, but functionA() must run before functionB(), you can hook functionA() with the default priority 10 and functionB() with priority 20 (or any other number above 10). What won't work is hooking another function to an action while that action is executing. So you can't hook functionB() to after_setup_theme from functionA(), called on after_setup_theme. You could call it directly, but you would lose the benefit of separate hooks.

I often say that "it" is always about the little things.
The "it" can be a relationship, an experience traveling, or of course restaurants and brunch. You could go to a cafe where the server did something extra thoughtful for your table, you could find yourself loving extra the large mugs at a restaurant, or a unique garnish added in a bloody Mary.
Today at Tremont I was surprised when an amuse bouche arrived at our table– Tremont had assembled small bites of banana chocolate chip bread on a plate.
It was an awesome couple of bites to start off our brunch experience. And we weren't the only ones provided with this treat. Every table Tremont serves receives the plate off the bat when they sit down. While I had been to Tremont in the past, this special touch wasn't incorporated into their service yet. I think it is a great little touch that makes a big difference. Thank you and Bravo team Tremont!
Wishing you a healthy and happy 2014. May your mimosas be bubbly, your conversation lively, and your year sunny-side up.

Why It's Time for Bernie Sanders to Support Hillary Clinton
Christopher Beem

Bernie Sanders has achieved astonishing things in the 2016 U.S. presidential race. He has single-handedly resurrected socialism in American political discourse. He has moved Clinton to the left on virtually every issue. Most importantly, he has brought millions of young people into politics. According to CIRCLE, more youth have voted for Sanders than for Clinton and Trump combined.
But Bernie Sanders is not going to be the Democratic nominee for president. He isn't going to quit or suspend his campaign. But barring the impossible, he is going to lose.
What Sanders does between now and the end of the Philadelphia convention this summer will largely determine whether he is able to consolidate all his achievements. In fact, these next few weeks will decide whether his message and movement will continue to impact American politics.
Even after Tuesday's massive defeat in a string on Northeast states, Sanders insisted that "we are in this campaign to win." But he also gave his first hint of a different agenda. He said that he is out to "win every delegate we can," so that he can "fight for a progressive party platform" at the Convention in July. Sanders could score some real victories here, including commitments to a $15 an hour U.S. minimum wage, universal health care, and tougher regulations for Wall Street.
But while party platforms seem crucial during the convention, with delegates fighting over every word, they lose their significance immediately thereafter.
The more important question is whether he will be given the opportunity to speak.
The "unity" convention speech by the runner up is always a high risk/high reward moment for the party and its nominee. Edward Kennedy's speech at the 1980 convention barely mentioned Jimmy Carter, and it was embarrassingly clear that he did not think much of the party's nominee. It is one reason why Carter's campaign against Ronald Reagan failed so badly. On the other hand, a unity speech really can unify. At the 2008 convention, Hillary Clinton herself declared that "Barack Obama is my candidate and he must be our president." The campaign between her and Obama was at least as rough as the current Democratic contest, but Clinton's full-throated endorsement made it much easier for her supporters to get behind Obama and secure his victory.
Of course, the party is under no obligation to offer Sanders such an opportunity. And if they have reason to fear that Sanders' speech would be more like Kennedy's and less like Clinton's, they won't.
But the smart money says that he will speak and will offer his strong support for Hillary Clinton. Why? Because every party to that decision wants it to happen.
Clinton wants him to speak because it is the best way to get Sanders' disappointed supporters to recommit themselves to her. Clinton needs all those votes that went to Sanders. But young people don't just vote, they do much of the leg work for a campaign; they sleep on couches and work for peanuts. Clinton also needs their passion and energy. But without Sanders' blessing, she won't get them.
For its part, the Democratic Party is worried about demographics. Even now, millennials outnumber baby boomers. Their vote is already critical and it will only become more so. And second, while young people are far less partisan than their parents, once they have voted the same way two or three times they still tend to identify with a party in practice (if not in name). Party leaders therefore know that they have a golden opportunity to capture a sizeable chunk of the electorate for decades. Moreover, for all its structural advantages in presidential elections, the Democratic Party is awful at mobilizing its constituents for off year elections, not to mention down ticket and local races. This is especially true of young people. Sanders could encourage them to stay invested. But if Sanders chooses not to do so, the Party will continue to underperform, and it might even lose this group for good.
But the speech is just as important for Sanders himself.
First, Sanders knows that a Trump presidency would spell disaster for everything he believes in. And he has every reason to remind his followers of that fact. He also knows that the party would blame him if he did not endorse Clinton and Donald Trump were somehow to win.
But more importantly, he wants his revolution to live on and grow. To do that, he and his followers must work within the Democratic Party. His followers may not yet believe this. They may believe that a revolution could only happen outside a corrupt two-party system. But Sanders himself does. That is why, after all, he ran as a Democrat; he formerly identified himself as an Independent. Working outside the system is to embrace irrelevancy.
Working within the party means undertaking the hard work of building a sustainable infrastructure. It means identifying potential candidates and helping them move up the ladder of elected office. But it also means committing to the party and those who represent it—up and down the ticket. None of this can be achieved solely by a speech, of course, but it cannot be achieved without one. Sanders must tell his followers that for the sake of their common commitments, they need to commit to the party. Most immediately, that means that his followers need to fall in behind Clinton's nomination.
Sanders has run an extremely good campaign. A convention speech is his opportunity to cement his reputation and cultivate his movement. If he does it right, he will do both, even as he helps to secure Clinton's election in November.

Cedar Crest boys and girls shine at L-L Cross Country

EPHRATA - The Cedar Crest cross country program is one that expects a lot of itself.
And more often than not over the years, the Falcons have achieved, or at least come close to achieving, what they believed they could.
Like Tuesday, for instance.
Led by superb individual efforts from Jake Barrett and Gwyneth Young, Cedar Crest reached its typical high level of performance during the Lancaster-Lebanon League Championships at Ephrata Middle School.
Barrett turned in a sixth place finish in 16:40.1 to lead the Falcon boys to a second straight runner-up finish in the team standings, while freshman Young turned in a surprise 10th place effort in a personal-best 19:31.3 to pace the Crest girls to a sixth place spot out of 18 teams.
All of which made Cedar Crest's energetic, passionate head coach Brandon Risser, well, his typical energetic, passionate self when discussing the work his squad put in on Tuesday.
"I felt confident we could put it all together," Risser said of the boys team's performance, which also included contributions from Adam Wolfe (13th), William Sheffield (22nd), Tommy Bildheiser (29th) and DJ Laliberte (32nd). "We've had a young team with some adversity and illness and weather that (hurt) a couple of our runners a few times, so we've never put together our A-plus race on the same day. Today it was probably our A-plus effort.
"Outcome? I don't think it's an A-plus, but our guys just went for it."
Especially Barrett, a junior, who earned his first top 10 L-L meet finish by running an aggressive but smart race that left him within shouting distance of the lead pack pace - Hempfield's Christian Groff won in 16:05.4 - throughout.
"I had to be out there and establish myself early," said Barrett, who had been battling a back issue that left him just seventh in a tri-meet at Ephrata last week. "It's crazy. (A top 10 finish) was definitely a goal of mine, but I had a few rough races recently so I didn't know how everything would come together. To do it felt great."

As did the fact that it helped the Falcon boys accomplish their team goals.
"Coming in we wanted to get second," Barrett said, before knowing for sure that Cedar Crest had secured the runner-up spot. "Coach Risser was talking all week about getting two guys in the top 13 and I think we were definitely able to do that."
One thing Risser probably wasn't talking about prior to the meet was a top 10 finish for Young, who hadn't broken 20 minutes all season and last year was an unremarkable 36th in the L-L Junior High meet.
So, of course, Young ran the race of her life so far to lead the Falcons to the brink of a top 5 finish with an assist from Shayla Bonzelet (33rd), Taylor Laliberte (39th), Elizabeth Nazeeri (49th) and Mia Reigert (69th).
Jamie Zamrin of Cocalico won the girls race in a sizzling 18:29.7, while Manheim Township ran away with the team title.
"Gwyneth Young ran out of her mind," Risser said. "What a performance to finish 10th."
You can count Young among those who didn't quite see such a standout performance coming.

"Oh yeah," Young said with a smile, when asked if she surprised herself. "I was thinking I was gonna get mid 20s. There were certain girls that I raced before so my goal was just to stay up with them. Because they motivated me to go faster."
Not to be outdone, the Elco boys and girls also performed well. The boys grabbed sixth in the team standings led by Mitchell's Gray's 24th place finish in 17:04.6, while Lily Brubaker's 15th place finish in 19:48.0 made it two Lebanon County girls under 20 minutes and helped the Raider girls finish 13th.

'You' Without Joe's Narration Is Actually Terrifying
Alfie Powell in Entertainment, Netflix
Netflix have released a clip of You without Joe's narration and it's genuinely one of the creepiest things committed to film in the world of fiction.
Somehow Joe from You has become a fan favourite, despite being an awful man and even when he's not murdering, he's being dangerously creepy.
I mean it's Penn Badgley, isn't it? It's because he's a handsome man that he can get away with playing a total creep. No-one looks at Anthony Hopkins's Hannibal Lecter and goes "ooh choke me, daddy" because, well, it's Anthony Hopkins.
Anthony Hopkins's Odin though? Well hello, sir…
It's the charisma. It's his voiceover during him doing untoward things that sort of detracts from the unsettling actions. But what happens when you get rid of that voiceover? Something weird happens.
What started as third-party voyeurism turns into first hand voyeurism and something that we really wish we weren't a part of. It's bizarre and as I said earlier, very unsettling…
Ugh. Quite horrible.
Now obviously there's a lot to say about how Penn Badgley's Joe – or Will in this season – is always pretty unsavoury, but it's one moment in the second episode of the new season that's got people shuddering.
This article contains spoilers, by the way, so you haven't seen this and/or don't want it spoiled, then you have now to go away and check the episode out.
The episode called Just the Tip sees Joe come at odds with a very unpleasant man in Jasper (Steven W. Bailey). Jasper, at one point, mistakingly cuts part of Joe's finger off after mistaking him for someone else so obviously, he has to get his revenge.
How does he do this? The normal way, of course, by sticking him through a meat-grinder.
Deplorable behaviour, really. No one wants to be put through a meat-grinder and I'd argue that very few people deserve that fate. Jasper was a bastard, don't get me wrong, but bloody hell.
Viewers were shocked, of course…
2 episodes in on You season 2 and holy shit a meat grinder?! I wasn't prepared for this.

bitch wtf i'm watching You and this mf just put someone thru a meat grinder ,, sis i'm gaggin

Like I said, #YOUSEASON2 is incredible. But I really need to yell about *that* moment in episode 2 that almost made me puke. It is ART. And it is SO WRONG. I can NEVER UNSEE IT. #YouNetflix https://t.co/1cTggSxDJ4

OMFG I know what scene you're talking about and I was EATING WHEN I SAW IT. I won't be eating ever again.

I swear to god I feel sick after watching Joe from #You kill someone, dismember their body into pieces and put the parts into a meat grinder and dispose the minced meat into the fucking trash 🤢😭😭 thank god im vegetarian pic.twitter.com/X0fLQ6kwKw

Talking to TVLine about the episode, Badgley said it wasn't all that nice to film.
Badgley explained:
"We had a life-sized, very authentic prosthetic body. It was a headless body that was extremely realistic to touch and sight. All of the body hair, each hair, was a real human hair that was applied individually. So the amount of human labour that went into this body was pretty great.
"It was rigged so that it would bleed when you cut into it. There was also a removable arm. It was really interesting to talk to the people who made it, because they were all so sweet. They just love horror movies, and they have this really pure love of craftsmanship and handiwork.
"In a way, it was exciting – and then came the time to cut into it. That part was nauseating, actually. Very surreal."
You can watch all of You season 2 on Netflix now!
