Migraines are just awful. They make the inside of your head feel like it's about to explode, cause you to feel nauseous and cause even small amounts of light and sound to trigger extreme pain in sufferers, amongst other things.
Most migraines sufferers have triggers which cause them to have an episode. If by tracking your migraines and what you were doing before they came on, you can identify your triggers, you can take steps to avoid them.
Common migraine triggers include falling estrogen levels before menstruating, alcohol, and lack of sleep, but it can vary significantly between individuals, so write down as much information as you can when attempting to track your illness.
If you have problems with your jaw, like you've noticed it locking frequently, it feels swollen, or you grind your teeth a lot, it could be that your migraines are related to a condition known as Temporomandibular Joint Disorder, which is known to cause migraines in sufferers and which can be treated with the help of a tmj specialist, who will recommend exercises and small changes to your routine, which can help to keep the condition in check.
When you're suffering from a migraine, it can be extremely helpful to apply a cold compress, or even better an ice pack to the area. Ice is a natural anti-inflammatory, so it will very quickly lessen the pain you feel.
One recent study found that migraine sufferers who added 400 mg of vitamin B2 to their diet suffered from far fewer migraines after 12 weeks of doing so. There has also been some evidence to suggest that taking CoQ10 supplements can prevent future migraines to a significant degree.
Some migraine sufferers have had success with using holistic massage to prevent migraines when they feel them coming on. Massage that focuses specifically on the neck and shoulder is particularly good for this purpose.
Botox – that stuff that celebrities inject into their faces to get rid of wrinkles – is actually pretty good at treating sufferers of chronic migraines, and it has been approved by the FDA for use in migraine patients for around seven years now. The only downside of this treatment is that you will need to endure 32 shots of botox every three months.
Beta blockers are more commonly associated with high blood pressure and heart health, but they are actually pretty good at preventing migraines. If you decide to go down this route, please do be aware that you could experience some side effects as a result.
Numerous studies have found that acupuncture can be as good as drugs for stopping migraines in their tracks, with the added benefit that it has no side-effects, so it is certainly an option that could be worth exploring, even if the relief you get is only from the placebo effect.

They are widely diverse, not only in what events the writer attended, what he or she saw and felt, but in the writers themselves. There are first-timers and long-termers, there are women and men, there are POC and Whites. There are reports in prose and reports in verse, reports from people who went to panels and reports from those who ran parties, reports that rhapsodize about WisCon 33 and reports that critique it, or indicate that it is not always a coming-home and recognizing-the-tribe experience. These are strong, clear voices showing that the experience of WisCon is multi-hued and complex.
The word's been out for some time now that we're living in "post-feminist" times. And yet the world's largest feminist science fiction convention, held annually in Madison, Wisconsin, which many of the genre's luminaries attend, has become so popular that the ceiling limiting attendance to 1000 participants often tops out months in advance. People attend to meet up with friends from other parts of the country (or the world) whom they've come to know online; they attend because the programming goes far beyond the "feminism 101" that is the most they can hope for from most other science fiction conventions. But above all they come to experience the kind of community they can't get elsewhere. Some participants even characterize it as four days of feminist utopia—a reference to the communities created in the most famous feminist novels of the 1970s.
This volume of the WisCon Chronicles celebrates, challenges, and discusses the varied faces of WisCon 33. Its contributors include a mix of writers, scholars, and fans, among whom number Nisi Shawl, Nancy Jane Moore, Andrea Hairston, Jennifer Pelland, JoSelle Vanderhooft, MJ Hardman, and Beverly Friend. It also, notably, includes a handful of short stories. And as with previous volumes, it does not shy away from controversy.
*Publication of this book was partially supported by a grant from the Society for the Furtherance & Study of Fantasy & Science Fiction (SF3).
"As usual, we have a grab bag of interesting and at times emotionally affecting content. I very much enjoyed the focus on Tiptree Award winner Nisi Shawl and her experience at the con, as well as the experience of her mother who came along to share the event and contributes a letter about what it was like for her… The mixture of 'event record' and after-the-fact discussion is one of the great strengths of these books.
"'Up Off Our Couches: Mental Illness Activism and Speculative Fiction' by JoSelle Vanderhooft was an extraordinary essay about the portrayal of mental illness in pop culture, and the perceptions of mental illness in everyday community, and how these two things intersect. This is a topic very dear to my heart and the article was crunchy and thought-provoking.
"With 'Haiku Earring Party' Elise Matthesen describes how this now-traditional WisCon party (in which attendees write poems in exchange for handmade pairs of earrings) got started, and shares some of the special moments she has experienced over the years. I found this story really sweet and inspirational, and I think it shows very much how WisCon differs from other conventions.
"'Romance of the Robot' by Andrea Hairston was a great analysis of Wall E (and some other examples of robotic romance) and I will now not be able to look at that movie without interpreting Wall E and Eve as lesbians!
"The highlight of the book for me was 'We See What You Did There,' a group chat among various POC about their various experiences at the convention, and discussing their relationship with WisCon as a continuing event."

Very cheap and ran down apartments. Nothing is updated (stoves, dishwasher, etc.) The walls have patches where theyve been painted over. Theres pain drips. I was not able to see this apartment before I moved in, but If i was able to see it before hand I would have not chosen East Pointe!!!! So expensive for ran down place with horrible qualities. Maintenance is not kept up on & the place still has copper wiring !!! For sure would not recommend moving here.
They filled in the swimming pool which we were lied to about. No locks on screen door. They don't want to spend money to fix anything. I can't wait to move. Swamps in backyard because downspout needs fixing. Not very secure.

I'm interested in East Pointe Apartments. Please send me current availability and additional details.

Q: Negating an equality within a temporary function WHERE statement causes a join error I'm trying to count distinct users that also match a condition (in this example deleted IS NOT TRUE). I need to group by monthly cohorts with users who were active within the target month and users who were active in previous months.
To retrieve previous months I'm using a negated equality (FORMAT_DATE('%Y%m', DATE(timestamp)) != CONCAT(year, month)) but when I do I'm receiving "Error: LEFT OUTER JOIN cannot be used without a condition that is an equality of fields from both sides of the join". Using the equality without the negation runs successfully.
I've looked at this and this but both of these questions are in the context of using an explicit JOIN.
The code below replicates the issue and can be executed in the BigQuery web console.
CREATE TEMPORARY FUNCTION getCurrentCount(year STRING, month STRING) AS ((
  SELECT
    COUNT(DISTINCT t.by) distinct_count
  FROM
    `bigquery-public-data.hacker_news.full` AS t
  WHERE
    FORMAT_DATE('%Y%m', DATE(timestamp)) = CONCAT(year, month) AND
    deleted IS NOT TRUE
));

CREATE TEMPORARY FUNCTION getPreviousCount(year STRING, month STRING) AS ((
  SELECT
    COUNT(DISTINCT t.by) distinct_count
  FROM
    `bigquery-public-data.hacker_news.full` AS t
  WHERE
    FORMAT_DATE('%Y%m', DATE(timestamp)) != CONCAT(year, month) AND
    deleted IS NOT TRUE
));

WITH easy_cohorts AS (
  SELECT
    t.by author,
    FORMAT_DATE('%Y', DATE(timestamp)) year,
    FORMAT_DATE('%m', DATE(timestamp)) month
  FROM
    `bigquery-public-data.hacker_news.full` AS t
)

SELECT
  year,
  month,
  COUNT(author) total_authors,
  getCurrentCount(year, month) distinct_current_authors,
  getPreviousCount(year, month) distinct_previous_authors
FROM
  easy_cohorts
GROUP BY
  year,
  month
ORDER BY
  year,
  month

Why do I get this error and how could I get around it?

A: Below is for BigQuery Standard SQL
#standardSQL
CREATE TEMPORARY FUNCTION getCurrentCount(month DATE) AS ((
  SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT t.by) distinct_count
  FROM `bigquery-public-data.hacker_news.full` AS t
  WHERE DATE_TRUNC(DATE(TIMESTAMP), MONTH) = month
  AND deleted IS NOT TRUE
));
CREATE TEMPORARY FUNCTION getPreviousCount(month DATE) AS ((
  SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT t.by) distinct_count
  FROM `bigquery-public-data.hacker_news.full` AS t
  WHERE DATE_TRUNC(DATE(TIMESTAMP), MONTH) = DATE_SUB(month,INTERVAL 1 MONTH)
  AND deleted IS NOT TRUE
));
WITH easy_cohorts AS (
  SELECT t.by author,
    DATE_TRUNC(DATE(TIMESTAMP), MONTH) month
  FROM `bigquery-public-data.hacker_news.full` AS t
)
SELECT month,
  COUNT(author) total_authors,
  getCurrentCount(month) distinct_current_authors,
  getPreviousCount(month) distinct_previous_authors
FROM easy_cohorts
GROUP BY month
ORDER BY month

Please note: I assume your cohort logic is correct and meet your requirements. So I only fixed "retrieving" current month and previous month distinct count

Geology Committee, Orano Mining set up JV in uranium mining
MINEX Forum | December 6, 2019 | Views: 73 | Source: Tashkent Times
The joint venture Nurlikum Mining, set up by the French company Orano Mining and the State Committee on Geology and Mineral Resources (GeolCom) of Uzbekistan, will have the annual capacity to produce 1,500 tons of concentrated uranium oxide (U3O8), GeolCom said on Wednesday.
In September, Orano and Goskomgeologiya signed an agreement on the establishment of a joint venture for exploration and production of uranium in the Navoi province. The JV's resource base will include three promising of "sandstone" type uranium sites – North and South Dzhengeldy and Yangiquduq.
On the eve, Nurlikum Mining founders reportedly agreed on all procedures for registering the company, and to holdi the first meeting of the founders.
In accordance with the JV deal terms, Orano will own 51% in the form of cash injection, process equipment and machinery, while the GeolCom stare will be 49% through the geological and other costs. At the initial stage, the French company plans to invest up to US$ 20 million in the project and about $ 150 million upon identifying a commercial field. The joint venture plans to begin field work in early 2020.
Sandstone-type uranium deposits were not previously offered for development to foreign investors; they are part of the resource base of the Navoi Mining and Metallurgical Complex, which has a monopoly on the extraction, enrichment and export of uranium in the country.
In recent years, the government of Uzbekistan has been trying to attract foreign investors in the development of black-shale uranium deposits, which are currently not being developed and which require significant investments.
According to the State Committee for Geology, in 2017, uranium production in Uzbekistan topped 3600 tons, which is entirely exported.

Obi-Wan Kenobi (Series)
Obi-Wan Kenobi (Character)
Obi-Wan Kenobi Actor Teases 'Wonderful' Cameos In Disney+ Show
By Russ Milheim Posted: April 15, 2022
There's one character that Star Wars fans have been begging to see return to the franchise for some time now: Obi-Wan Kenobi. Thankfully, that day is almost here with Ewan McGregor's upcoming Disney+ series. The story is set to take place in between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, and it will also fall years before the events of Star Wars: Rebels.
Past that, not much plot information has been confirmed. What fans do know, however, is how Hayden Christensen will be returning as Darth Vader to go up against his master once more.
The very first trailer for the show also teased the involvement of the Inquisitors. Among them was their leader, the Grand Inquisitor, played by Rupert Friend. No doubt, the entire group will exchange blows with Kenobi as they fulfill their quest to extinguish the remnants of the Jedi Order.
But who else could appear in the series? During a recent red carpet event, Friend was in attendance, and in response to a question by the press, the actor teased the many cameos fans should expect.
Obi-Wan Kenobi Actor Offers Teases
Rupert Friend
During a Red Carpet interview with HeyUGuys for his new Netflix series Anatomy of a Scandal, Rupert Friend was asked how excited fans should be for the upcoming series Obi-Wan Kenobi.
The actor, who plays the Grand Inquisitor, exclaimed that for him, "[the series] is one of the most thrilling additions to the Star Wars canon," and how there are "wonderful cameos from people… [and] Easter eggs galore:"
"If it's possible to be any more excited than folks already are, I would be. I think [the series] is one of the most thrilling additions to the Star Wars canon. I think Ewan McGregor is doing things with that role that is a dream for fans of the original films. You know, we can't obviously have Alec Guinness back, but I just think Ewan was absolutely born to play that part. And wonderful cameos from people I obviously can't tell you, but Easter eggs galore... Yeah, it's a thrilling ride."
What 'Wonderful' Cameos Are Ahead?
So who could possibly show up? The list is nearly endless. The first player that comes to mind is Qui-Gon Jinn; in fact, it would be kind of disappointing if he didn't end up making a cameo in the series. It seems like the perfect outlet to allow Liam Neeson to show his face one more time.
The show has also been said to have Clone Wars flashbacks. If true, this opens the door to seeing the likes of Captain Rex or Commander Cody—maybe even a younger Ahsoka in her early days.
Even Hondo the pirate could show up, given his rapport in the animated series with Obi-Wan. The bounty hunter Cad Bane might be another good choice; he would also make a lot of sense given his awesome live-action introduction to audiences in the final two episodes of The Book of Boba Fett.
There have been plenty of rumors teasing that fans will see more Jedi in the show as well, and possibly even Senator Organa. But what about anybody from the cast of Rebels?
Canan and Ezra's appearances are unlikely due to the show's timeline in relation to Kenobi and how both believed the Jedi long dead; this same sentiment goes towards Darth Maul as well. Maybe a young Hera or Sabine could show up, but their place in Obi-Wan's story doesn't seem too organic on the surface.
Maybe Lucasfilm will surprise everyone with an up-and-coming bounty hunter named Din Djarin crossing paths with the Master Jedi, even if only for a second. Or, maybe Samuel L. Jackson's Mace Windu has been alive all this time, and has been waiting to steal McGregor's spotlight for years. Only time will tell.
Obi-Wan Kenobi releases May 27, exclusively on Disney+.

From Minutes to Seconds - Increasing Tube Measurement Efficiency
Swedish sheet metal and tube processing business reduces tube measurement cycle times to less than ten seconds with non-contact inspection system TubeInspect P16 and BendingStudio software.
Blomberg & Stensson AB, based in Katrineholm in Sweden, runs a flexible production centre where it manufactures everything from prototypes to full line production of small and medium-sized series. It also offers construction, powder coating and assembly.
'We are a small, owner-led company with a lot of heart,' says Stefan Edlund, CEO and co-owner. In 2010, the company revolutionised its tube production processes, opting for a photogrammetry inspection system that reduces measurement cycles and delivers insightful data to optimise the operation of their bending machine.
Blomberg & Stensson was founded in 1947 and has approximately 70 employees. Their customers are found in the Swedish automotive, energy, mining, agricultural and construction industries. In recent years the company has expanded and modernised in order to keep pace with the latest technological developments. As part of this work, the business has moved to larger, newly renovated premises where a continuous improvement process is ongoing.
'Industry 4.0 is a continuous development and we need to be dynamic to follow the progress of technology. Our customers' requirements will change and we must be ready,' says Stefan. 'We have to constantly develop and improve. The certification guidelines help us to do so.'
We manufacture tubes in lengths ranging from a few decimetres up to nearly six metres. We're flexible, and our measuring equipment has to be as well.
In Blomberg & Stensson's 10 000-square-metre premises there is a large workshop that offers powder coating, blasting, welding, punching, laser cutting and waterjet cutting among other functions. The tube manufacturing department processes complete bent and assembled steel tubes of the highest quality. The tubes are cut, graded and bent, then cleaned and sealed ready for delivery.
The business specialises in medium-sized series of 1-to-200 tubes per batch. No mass production is conducted here – every series is produced upon request. Many hundreds of different items are run continuously, and new products are constantly being introduced. This makes Blomberg & Stensson a very flexible supplier, with the capacity to efficiently handle volumes with short lead times and at the highest quality. 'We manufacture tubes in lengths ranging from a few decimetres up to nearly six metres. We are flexible, and our measuring equipment has to be as well,' says Men To, who works as a group leader in the company's pipe division.
From Manual Point Measuring to 3D Scanning
Before the TubeInspect measurement solution was installed, an older model of measuring arm with touch probe was used. "With the measuring arm we had to measure each section before and after every bend,' says Jörgen Garmenfjäll, workshop engineer. 'This was accurate but time consuming, as the tube needed to be fastened with a clamp and the measuring was done manually. For larger tubes we had to join multiple measurements.'
In 2010, Blomberg & Stensson acquired Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence's 3D measuring system TubeInspect, becoming among the first companies in Sweden to use this technology. Now the measuring routine is performed quickly and easily by placing the tube in the TubeInspect measuring cell and starting the measuring program – the tube doesn't even have to be moved.
TubeInspect P16 is a non-contact measuring system equipped with sixteen high-resolution cameras suitable for tubes with a diameter of 3-to-200 millimetres. It has a measuring volume of 2600 by 1250 by 700 millimetres, and with repositioning enables optimum 3D measurement of bent tubes up to any length required. Tube measurements can then be compared against a prototype or an imported CAD model.
Because of the tolerance spread, you need to fine-tune how you bend the pipe. This means that even if the pipe is within tolerance, the bending parameters may need to be adjusted. With TubeInspect, that correction is automatically sent from the measuring machine to the bending machine."
When using the measuring arm the process took several minutes; with this 3D scanning solution it takes a few seconds regardless of the complexity of the tube. 'Now we have a measuring process that is fast and smooth with an accuracy higher than our customers demand,' says Jörgen.
TubeInspect, along with the BendingStudio software, is now used for all quality assurance in the department.
Optimising Systems and Processes
Using the BendingStudio software, data from the measurements can be utilised to modify the bending machines and ensure optimal tolerances. The BendingStudio software communicates directly with the bending machine after each measurement, which in turn compensates within tolerance to avoid waste, which contributes significantly to saving both time and money while enhancing production quality.
'Because of the tolerance spread, you need to fine-tune how you bend the pipe,' explains CEO Stefan. 'This means that even if the pipe is within tolerance, the bending parameters may need to be adjusted. With TubeInspect, that correction is automatically sent from the measuring machine to the bending machine."
TubeInspect can handle all tube measurements and is now the only measuring instrument used in the tube processing department at Blomberg & Stensson. With an accuracy of 0.085 mm for sheath tolerance (1σ) and measurement time of less than 10 seconds, regardless of pipe type, it's a solution that goes hand-in-hand with Blomberg & Stensson's vision of flexibility and quality.
Case Study: Blomberg & Stensson - Katrineholm
Hexagon's comprehensive range of tube and wire measurement systems delivers solutions tailored to a variety of applications in the world of tube production.

CSU lab developing Ebola vaccine for military use
Trevor Hughes
FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Research scientists at Colorado State University are helping develop an Ebola vaccine that could protect soldiers and the public from the deadly disease, the university announced Monday.
BioMARC, a high-containment biopharmaceutical facility operated by CSU, is manufacturing the vaccines for the U.S. Department of Defense for use in human clinical trials. There's no approved Ebola vaccine, and the Colorado State lab will make small amounts of the vaccine for testing purposes.
CSU was chosen for the work in part because it has equipment that can make vaccines without using live Ebola virus, reducing the risk of infection to workers or the public. University researchers also conduct tuberculosis, hantavirus and West Nile virus research at the lab west of the city.
The CSU center received the $2 million subcontract through the Department of Defense's Medical Countermeasures Systems Joint Vaccine Acquisition program, the university said. That program develops and stockpiles vaccines and countermeasures that can be used to protect soldiers, but the research ultimately will benefit civilians. The program has developed vaccines against anthrax and smallpox, and is working on plague and botulism.
"Colorado State has long been on the front lines of fighting infectious diseases in humans and animals — from retroviruses to vector-borne viral diseases," President Tony Frank said in a statement announcing the program. "We're proud now to be able to put our resources and expertise to work in the pressing fight against Ebola."
Ebola has killed more than 4,900 people in Africa during the current outbreak. The United States has seen four travel-associated and localized transmission cases with one death, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Dr. Craig Spencer, who tested positive for Ebola on Thursday, is still hospitalized in New York.

4 Workplace Problems Millennials Face More Than Other Generations
They're creating solutions to problems that existed before them.
By Joe Pye
Free Debt Analysis
If you think millennials are a lazy generation who would rather drink a Starbucks frappe than lift a finger to work, research will prove you wrong.
Forty-three percent of millennials in the workforce are skipping vacations to work more, compared to 29 percent of all workers, according to a survey from Project: Time Off, a U.S. Travel Association initiative that studies the vacation habits of Americans.[1] These "work martyrs" don't take vacations to prove they are completely dedicated to their jobs.
That's what they believe, at least. And they have good reasons to be afraid of unemployment.
Student debt in America just hit a record high of $1.5 trillion and is affecting 40 million Americans, most of which are millennials, according to Forbes.[2] The business magazine also reported that millennials' annual pay is far lower than everyone else's, and 20 percent lower than baby boomers' when they were the same age.[3]
So millennials have found other ways to survive: job-hopping, asking for better benefits, freelancing, and working side jobs.
1. Millennials can't find a decent job
The truth is, millennials want promotions and raises, the same as everyone older than them. Most would stay with their current company if they saw potential for their future.
The vast majority (90 percent) of millennials said they would stay at the company they work for if they were guaranteed to receive an annual raise and upward mobility in their career, says a poll from Qualtrics, a survey software firm.[4] Most (77 percent) would even take a cut in salary if it guaranteed them job security.
Odds are that won't happen, though, which is why they flock to other places for jobs.
A Gallup poll says 21 percent of millennial workers said they changed jobs within the last year, which is more than three times the amount of older workers.[5] Sixty percent of millennials said they were open to working a different job. And half of those young workers said they planned to be with the same company a year later. That means the other half doesn't see a reason to stay with the company.
Could it be this generation is just lazy and entitled, or are they just determined to find the right fit? Gallup suggests it may be the businesses they work for.
2. Millennials want better work benefits
Part of a worthwhile job isn't just the salary — it's the benefits that come with it.
Three quarters (71 percent) of millennials say they'd like financial planning services as a benefit from work, but only a quarter of employees have been offered some sort of financial education, according to MassMutual Life Insurance.[6]
For example, a whopping 92 percent of millennials are putting money away for retirement, says a study from digital investment service Wealthsimple.[7] But only 35 percent are investing outside of a work-sponsored plan.
One reason millennials aren't investing outside of work benefits is that they don't know how. Thirty percent of those not investing beyond a work-sponsored retirement plan says so.
Aside from financial advice, millennials have had their eyes on other workplace benefits. Millennials like flexibility with their work hours, says a previous study from MassMutual.[8] The following are some of the other benefits they have their eyes on…
Flexible schedule: 43 percent
Vacation days: 48 percent
Tuition reimbursement: 30 percent
…Millennials have been pushing for student loan reimbursement for some time now. Debt.com has previously reported that student loans make millennials desperate, and 90 percent of them felt they would benefit from a student loan repayment program through work.

3. Millennials aren't happy with the traditional work week
Because companies aren't giving millennials what they want or need, some have decided to be their own bosses.
Forty percent of millennials plan to leave their 9 to 5 jobs to work as freelancers in the next five years, while only 23 percent of Gen Xers and 13 percent of baby boomers plan to do the same, says a study from Thumbtack, an app that connects independent contract workers to jobs. [9]
Part of this is in response to the economy. More and more companies are hiring independent contractors and freelancers instead of full-time employees, hence the term "gig economy," which is the increase of workers turning to temporary work and freelance jobs, the Washington Post has reported.[10]
The gig economy has increased by 27 percent more than traditional jobs over the past two decades, according to a study from the Brookings Institution.[11]
But millennials also leave their jobs because they want better life quality. Three in five want to start a business to feel more fulfillment, Thumbtack also found.
But why are millennials so eager to leave their jobs to pursue their passions? One reason is that they worry about the future of their positions. One in three millennials fear that automation will take over their jobs at some point in the future, according to a study from Pepperdine Graziadio Business School, and fear of job security is a motivator to chase down something they love.[12]
But there's financial risk in going out on your own, too.
These workers are their own bosses and are paid for individual tasks. They're responsible for paying their own taxes, unlike traditional employment. Some praise the flexibility and freedom this type of work provides, but others claim these jobs can lead to financial instability and burden workers to ensure their own pay and benefits.
4. Millennials aren't making enough money
Even when millennials work full time, it's still not enough to cover their living expenses. So many turn to side hustles for extra income.
Forty-four million Americans have one. But, younger millennials are more likely to have a side hustle than other generations, says a new study from personal finance website Bankrate[13] CareerBuilder considers side hustles to include anything from blogging to babysitting.[14]
But define extra: They're still earning less than everyone else. Only 25 percent of millennials earn more than $500 a month from their side hustle. Meanwhile, baby boomers and Gen Xers earn that much from theirs.
But no matter what kind of money they make or how their jobs are going, millennials are still optimistic.
"The [2008] recession left an indelible impression on young people and will follow them around for the foreseeable future," says David M. Smith, Ph.D., associate professor of economics at Pepperdine Graziadio Business School. "But in spite of these challenges, millennials still view their career prospects with cheerful optimism."

Glee Gone Wild
How the hell did a show about high school theater geeks come to be the biggest TV show in America? Well, T&A helps. (That's talent and ambition, you pervs.) But so does a generous helping of pot-laced brownies, girl-on-girl subtext, and choreographed dry-humping. Gleeksters Lea Michele, Dianna Agron, and Cory Monteith pull Alex Pappademas into the vortex
By Alex Pappademas
Photography by Terry Richardson
Thursday afternoon in the auditorium at Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo High School in Long Beach, California, and if the twelve relatably attractive young people who play the irrepressible William McKinley High School show choir on TV's Glee are tired—if the pressure of following up a debut season that spawned hit soundtrack albums, a sold-out concert tour, and a crazy-passionate fan base of self-professed "Gleeks" is getting to them, if they feel like they're singing and dancing as fast as they can—it doesn't show.
They're onstage making serious faces while mouthing along to a Glee'd-up rendition of Joan Osborne's God-rides-public-transit hit, "One of Us," which means this is probably the end of an episode in which everybody learns a Very Important Lesson.
But whenever the director calls "cut," a slumber party erupts. Kevin McHale (Artie) and Amber Riley (Mercedes) and Naya Rivera (Santana) break into dueling Michael Jackson impressions. Everybody takes turns pushing each other in Artie's wheelchair. At one point, the sound guy pipes in Cali Swag District's novelty-rap jam "Teach Me How to Dougie," and the whole cast does the limb-flapping "Teach Me How to Dougie" dance.
The whole cast, that is, except for Lea Michele. On Glee, she plays the hyperdriven Rachel Berry, a Tracy Flick with pipes, forever scolding her choirmates for their lack of commitment; when everyone starts to Dougie, she whips around and glares at them.
"We're singing for God today, you guys."
For a second, it seems like she's serious. I write down Possible diva moment? Investigate further. Then the giggling resumes.
Baby, I'm a Star
Metaphorically, Glee is about to graduate from Cabrillo. They've been shooting here for two years, but after this week they won't be back. A replica of Cabrillo's auditorium has been built on the Paramount lot, in what Cory Monteith, who plays the dim-sweet jock Finn Hudson, describes as "a testament to the juggernaut that Glee has become."
It's not the only one. There's also the tour, a four-city victory lap for the show, and those soundtracks—to date, the cast has lodged more singles on the Billboard Hot 100 than any other group except the Beatles—and the Emmy Ryan Murphy won for the Glee pilot. The show's also won a Golden Globe, a SAG award, a Peabody, a GLAAD award, and a Worst TV Show of the Week condemnation from the Parents Television Council, which cited "[a] veiled reference to fellatio, a speech denouncing abstinence, simulated sex during a musical dance number, and premature ejaculation." Apparently they missed the episode in which Puck (Mark Salling) laces the bake-sale cupcakes with medical marijuana (and gets away with it).
"I didn't want to do a family show," says Murphy. "I wanted to do my version of a family show. But we try to be as responsible as we can, because we know some young people watch. Some of the humor goes over their head, hopefully."
Meanwhile, on the Internet, where the teenage dream life of the culture really unfolds, _Glee_k ardor runs hot. Wild and wishful blog-speculation about on- and offscreen couplings. The YouTube tribute videos starring kids in their bedrooms, British hairstylists, and Ben 10 action figures. The self-explanatory Tumblr shrines like Fuck Yeah Cory Monteith. And—inevitably—the reams of NSFW slash fiction in which everybody gets it on with everyone else.
In the wake of last season's episodes devoted to Lady Gaga and Madonna (the first Material Girl–related cultural event in a decade that didn't feel like an extended dungeon session with Madge's titanic ego wielding the whip), rock icons with catalogs to exploit are lining up for the Glee treatment. Paul McCartney sent Murphy a mixtape full of tracks he thought would work well on a Sir Paul episode, which means there's a possibility that at some point in the future, Glee will turn a generation of tweens on to "Temporary Secretary" and "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey."
In short, Glee's got a choke hold on the Zeitgeist, from kids too young to sext to senior citizens who used to play in Wings, which is impressive for a show that's technically in the same genre as Cop Rock. (None of the cast members I talked to had seen Cop Rock. The young: always so ignorant of history's greatest atrocities.) But maybe it's not that surprising—Glee reaches multitudes because it contains them.
Much like Britney Spears—who's getting an episode devoted to her catalog this season—Glee is somehow both baby-deer naive and not-that-innocent. It portrays Christians as hypocrites while subtly pushing values that are pretty Christian, when you get down to it—tolerance, self-sacrifice, giving your baby mama your pool-cleaning money, respecting the songwriting genius of Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. It's as anachronistically sweet as Bye, Bye Birdie but gayer than Hedwig. It's a show where Agron, as the conniving cheerleader Quinn, convinces her boyfriend that she's pregnant with his child (it's someone else's), but it's also a show in which Monteith sings a soaring soft-rock rendition of the Pretenders' "I'll Stand By You" to a sonogram of that baby.
Look at it this way. For about a decade, TV's most popular singing-and-dancing show was Glee's Tuesday-night Fox lead-in, American Idol, in which young people lined up to have their dreams flayed by Simon Cowell, an English millionaire with an $8 haircut and a bottomless reserve of spittle-flecked disdain for weakness and eccentricity. Cowell clearly despised this country, and he felt the same way about the Idol contenders' hopeful little hearts as Jack Bauer did about terrorists' kneecaps, but we put up with him and his show's ruthless winner-take-all competitive-sport pop music paradigm for ten long seasons.
At first, Glee—another show about kids channeling a yearning for specialness into full-throated renditions of pop schlock—looked like a fictionalized Idol, the way Lost was a scripted Survivor (with polar bears). Really, though, Glee refutes Idol's whole ethos. Asked what the difference between the two shows was, Lea Michele tactfully replied that they were too different to compare. "One is about being judged, and one is not," she said—which is actually a pretty elegant comparison and gets at the sea change the Idol-Glee transition seems to represent. Maybe the success of a show like this—gay-positive, anti-gender-stereotyping, as anti-looksist as a show full of good-looking TV actors can be—suggests that America is becoming less judgmental. Or maybe a show that loves losers this much is the perfect American Idol successor for the Obama era because we're all finding out, as a country, how it feels to be the underdog.
Glee is not exactly at its best when it's being deliberately "progressive." It's as unafraid of teachable-moment overkill as it is of having somebody really go for it on the corniest trucker-gearshift crescendo of a Journey song. There's a rst-season episode called "Wheels" in which Mr. Schuester decides that the kids need to learn how hard it is to be poor paraplegic Artie and sentences them all to spend three hours a day in a wheelchair and Sue Sylvester turning out to have a sister who has Down syndrome and a subplot about the fabulously gay Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer, who has brought subtlety and grace to what began as a pretty stock bitchy-comic-relief role). The wheelchair stuff is funny, then cringey; Colfer's plot is something else. He's competing with Rachel for a solo on "Defying Gravity," from Wicked; at one point, we see Kurt struggling to hit one of the song's impossibly high F notes while his grease-monkey dad (who's portrayed as being totally accepting of his son's being "queer as a $3 bill") slowly walks to answer a ringing phone. The person on the other end says, "Your son's a fag," and hangs up.
At his tryout, Kurt deliberately blows the high note, and his chance at a star turn, to save his dad from further harassment but tells him, "I'm proud of who I am." Then there's a performance of "Proud Mary" in which everyone's in wheelchairs. But that scene with the piano and the phone call is what this show's really about. The drama on Glee happens in the gap between the people these kids can be when they're singing, in the bursts of orchestrated, choreographed fantasy that bust out of the narrative of the show, and the people they have to be the rest of the time. It's about how a pop song has the power to bowl over the contradictions and indignities of the real world, offering a glimpse of freedom and transcendence, and about what it's like to go back to being yourself when the music stops. If that thesis tips over into cheese on occasion, so be it—sometimes our yearnings are super-uncool. As Rachel Berry put it: "There is nothing ironic about show choir."
You Must Love Me
A month or so earlier, over kale and organic red wine at a restaurant in the East Village, Lea Michele—who is tiny in person, and tornado-energetic, and seems so determined to have you like her that it's basically impossible not to—pondered the Lea/Rachel dichotomy in detail.
Michele (whose most high-prole pre-Glee credit was onstage in Spring Awakening) auditioned for Glee twice. The audition you hear about more often is the second one, because she showed up with glass in her hair after getting into a car accident on the way over. But the story of the rst one may say more about how much Rachel there is in Lea, or vice versa.
The accompanist in the audition room made a mistake, and everybody laughed, except Michele.
"I was like, 'I'll go slap him in the face,' " Michele says. She did. "I thought, 'What did I just do?' But they loved it."
There's video of the audition on the Internet; Michele seems utterly serious and utterly Rachel already.
"I didn't know how much I was Rachel until I saw the video," she says. "I love Rachel. She's awesome."
Born in the Bronx, Michele grew up in Tenay, New Jersey. She loved Natalie Wood and Gilda Radner—"like, Roseanne Roseannadanna," she says, "because that was the only character I felt was spastic or gawky or funny like me"—and decided to devote her life to theater after seeing Funny Girl, starring Barbra Streisand. (There is talk of Michele playing the Streisand part in Funny Girl on-screen someday, but she doesn't mention it tonight.)
"Barbra's character is a funny-looking girl with a ridiculous voice who becomes a famous Ziegfeld girl. But she can never do anything serious. She's like, 'I can't sing about how beautiful I am, because I'm not beautiful. So I'll make it funny.' I was like, That's me. I look like her. I understand her."
When she started acting, people told her she needed a nose job.
"I was one of the only girls in my high school that didn't get one," Michele says. "And if anybody needed it, I probably did. But my mom always told me, growing up, 'Barbra Streisand didn't get a nose job. You're not getting a nose job.' And I didn't. Fuck those people.
"That's why I'm proud," she says, "to be on a positive show and to be a voice for girls and say, 'You don't need to look like everybody else. Love who you are.' "
We've established a no-judgment rule here at this table, Michele and I; we're going to eat kale and pick our teeth in front of each other, and it's going to be okay. Emboldened by this climate of openness, I decide to sh for gossip. Is it true, I ask Michele, that Ryan Murphy made all of you promise not to have sex in your trailers between scenes? (I'd read this on the Internet, which is full of truth.)
"He's never said that to me," Michele says. "Because he knows I'm not hooking up with anybody in my trailer."
Cool. So who had the most groupies on the Glee tour?
"That's tough," Michele says. "Kevin was in a boy band, so he had a lot of fans. Mark and Cory, for sure—I mean, every night, after the show, they would go say hi to all the fans."
Either she'd misunderstood what we meant by "groupies" or she'd misunderstood it deliberately or this wasn't working. I ask her what it was like to perform at the White House Easter-egg hunt.
"Rolling down the hills on the lawn, looking up at the snipers on the rooftops. Feeling like, at any moment, you could get shot. It was amazing. Using the bathroom was weird. The toilet paper had, like, the White House seal on it. I mean, we watched Amber sing the national anthem in front of Obama. We were crying."
Is there a lot of crying on the set?
"Oh yeah," Michele says. "A lot. And if anything's going on in our lives, we have each other. One time, I was having a bad day, and I called Chris Colfer. He came over with a pint of ice cream and Madea Goes to Jail, and it was, like, the best night of my life."
This is how everybody involved with the show talks about Glee—it's been an incredible ride, the cast is like family. I gently suggest that this camaraderie can't possibly last—that they'll be at one another's throats, Grey's Anatomy–style, by season three.
"Someone from [another] television show came up to us at an event and said that," Michele says, "and I got offended. Our show won't still be running in season three if we're not feeling that way, because then we won't be real, and people will see it. So let's hope that everything stays that way. Because I need this. I need this family!"
What's the Rachel quote? "I'm like Tinker Bell—I need applause to live!"
"That is the best quote ever," Michele says. "I understood that line."
On Glee, Dianna Agron plays Quinn Fabray, who joins show choir after getting pregnant and losing her place as McKinley High's queen-bee cheerleader and Celibacy Club president. Rachel's the one who quotes Tinker Bell; Quinn, who gets some of the best mean-girl lines this side of Heathers, calls Rachel names like "treasure trail." They're Glee's Alexis and Krystle Carrington, which makes Agron and Michele its Joan Collins and Linda Evans, which means everyone wants to believe one of two things about them—that they're bitter rivals, perpetually on the verge of a catght, or (because this is Glee) that they're lovers in real life.
When we talk to Michele, she talks about how much she misses living with Agron, whom she roomed with for six months after Glee was picked up, and when we meet with Agron at the Little Next Door restaurant, she's equally effusive about Michele.
She's heard what people say about them. It doesn't bother her—she thinks it's funny, although sometimes she worries. She says that during the photo shoot for this article, "when it was just Lea and me, I was like, 'We're in skimpy clothes, we're up against each other. This is feeding those rumors.' I've never been shot in so little clothing."
This is as close as we get to a scandalous line of inquiry; Agron is blonde, pretty, and polite, in a way that sort of inspires reciprocal politeness. We do not speak of trailer sex.
She tries to order lamb couscous without the lamb, because she's a vegetarian. She settles for salmon. We talk about the Glee tour, the screaming fans chasing their tour bus away from every venue, the mothers shoving their children through the crowd so they could touch the hem of Agron's garment. We talk about what it's like to clink SAG trophies at an awards-show afterparty with Meryl Streep and Quentin Tarantino. And we talk about what it's like to fall off a four-story building, something Agron does in her new movie, the Steven Spielberg–produced sci- thriller I Am Number Four, based on a young-adult novel written pseudonymously by tough-guy fabulist James Frey.
"I selshly wanted to be higher, because by the time your body registers that you're falling, you're already slowing down."
Agron grew up in Burlingame, California, just outside San Francisco. Her dad was a general manager for Hyatt; when she was 8 years old, they visited Los Angeles, staying in the Hyatt overlooking the Fox lot. Her parents couldn't tear her away from the window; she looked down, thinking to herself, "One day I'm going to be down there."
At her Glee audition, she sang "Fly Me to the Moon," because she'd sung it a year earlier, on her twenty-rst birthday, when her friends prodded her to get onstage at the Dresden in Los Feliz. When she landed the role, it was her second time being cast as a cheerleader—she'd played Hayden Panettiere's rival on a few episodes of Heroes. But it quickly turned into a very different assignment.
"I remember Ryan saying, 'You're about to get pregnant,' " she says. "And I thought, 'Bring it on.' When they put the pregnancy pad under my cheerleading outt, I was walking around the set, and people were like, 'Only on Glee!' "
Agron's own tastes are remarkably uncheerleaderish; she might be Glee's in-house hipster. Most days she pulls up to the set blasting something like Bat for Lashes. She's directed a video for indie rock band Thao with the Get Down Stay Down. She's already sold a screenplay—for a romantic comedy about a guy with mother issues. She'd like to be an actress-director like Soa Coppola when she grows up, and whenever anyone asks her whom she'd like to see do a cameo on a future Glee episode, she always nominates Christopher Walken. "I don't think people are too fond of that suggestion," she says. "I think they just want me to say Justin Timberlake or something."
Simple Man
Cory Monteith is very tall, very Canadian, and—because he's 27—kind of a wizened sage by Glee-cast standards.
And though he plays a dumb guy on TV, he's actually a great interview—funny, candid, reective, and willing to discuss the asstastic SyFy Channel original movies he appeared in pre-Glee. Which is good, because I wasn't about to not ask him about his work in Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep.
"I'm the happy-go-lucky deckhand," he says, "who sells out the scientic expedition to the bad guys, and then a whole bunch of people get shot at, and the ship blows up, and I die. I've died a bunch of times."
What about Hybrid, in which you played a man-wolf, opposite Justine Bateman as, um, a man-wolf-ologist?
"I'm wearing wolf-eye contacts. Watch it for longer than thirty seconds—you can see that one is off-balance. I had the lazy wolf eye."
It's early Wednesday morning at the Sunset Marquis in West Hollywood. Renowned character actor J. K. Simmons is across the patio, reading the paper, looking disconcertingly tan and vital. Monteith's in jeans and a V-neck T-shirt, eating eggs, drinking coffee.
When I ask Monteith what he was like in high school, he says he had trouble tting in, that he probably had ADHD, that he was drawn to "this whole world of excitement and danger outside the doors of high school—this kind of renegade teenage lifestyle." He dropped out in ninth grade.
"You have to really look to get into trouble in Victoria," Monteith says, "but I was industrious. Skipping school. Drinking. All that kind of crap. Things started off innocent like that. I denitely found myself in some places that I'm very fortunate I came back from."
We ask him if he's being vague about what "that kind of crap" entails, because he's worried about his behavior being role modeled.
"Hugely," Monteith says. "Hugely. The last thing I want to do is kind of imply to readers in high school that you too can drop out and be an actor and get on a big show and be famous and make a shitload of money."
It's all so strange. Aside from a stint with a modestly successful local alt-rock band called Porch Life ("Think Creed. I had a little earring, y'know?" he says), Monteith had no performance experience. After leaving school, he was a roofer, he was a telemarketer, he washed cars, he greeted Walmart patrons, he did customer-service spot checks as a 7-Eleven "secret shopper."
But there was this acting teacher who came over every Wednesday from Vancouver. Monteith knew a guy who knew that guy, went to a class. The teacher told him he had natural ability—and more important, informed Monteith that actors get paid, something Monteith swears had not occurred to him, and literally two weeks later he was on the boat to Vancouver with his clothes in a couple of plastic bags, bound for a pallet on the acting teacher's oor and a restaurant job.
And then came a bunch of auditions—he and the same ten other guys from Vancouver who got called in every time, all "reading for the 'Nice Guy' part or whatever"—and Kraken, and then Glee, and now, every week, here's Monteith on TV, playing Johnny Football. He grasps how funny this is.
"Wait—I'm playing the quarterback? I mean, how did that happen? I'm Joe Canada, who never went to high school. I've never even been to a football game."
"A lot of the kids who came in had been in boy bands and sang like they were in boy bands," Ryan Murphy says. "Cory was playing the drums on Tupperware on his audition tape. I thought, Oh, that's right. That's the way to go."
He couldn't sing, not at rst. The producers leaned hard on digital trickery to x his vocals, and Monteith acknowledges that in the early episodes, "you could hear the Auto-Tune." But being out of his element turned out to be an asset—Monteith may never have been a jock, but he's utterly believable as a dude discovering his emotional vocabulary for the rst time, reaching for those where-eagles-dare high notes in "Don't Stop Believin' " and nding himself in the process.
All that happens in the course of season one; Monteith's not sure where the character's going to go in season two.
"Maybe he'll get a little smarter, ngers crossed, so that I could show depth," he says. "Maybe if I talk about that in interviews, it'll happen. Because I'm constantly being written stuff that's like—" he taps out a ba-dump-bump! on the table—"convenient, dumb-guy writing. I think the stasis of Finn gives characters like Rachel and Kurt room to maneuver—it just requires patience to not say, 'When's mine? When's my breakdown scene?' So it'll be interesting to see how the writers push Finn. Or if they do at all."
He laughs. "Maybe it'll be like The Simpsons, and everybody will remain unchanged. Maybe that's what Glee's about. Maybe this is kind of a stasis show. I don't know."
Sometimes it was hard to shake the feeling, watching the rst season, that nobody knew where Glee was going, not even co-creators Murphy, Ian Brennan, and Brad Falchuk. Things got weird around the second half of that rst year; even hard-core _Glee_ks complained that those episodes seemed to be sacricing story in favor of stunt-casting pseudo-coups (Olivia Newton-John!), gratuitous musical numbers, and shoehorned-in hey-kids-share-this-viral-video-with-your-social-network moments, like the Madonna episode's cringey remake of the "Vogue" video starring Jane Lynch's Sue Sylvester.
(It's not that Lynch isn't a national treasure—she totally is. But her character is a deranged cartoon who works best as an antagonist, lobbing cruel one-liners into scenes like a grenadier; that "Vogue" scene felt like an attempt to suck up to Sue-maniacs, which is the kind of thing that derails shows. See also: Kramer, Cosmo; Urkel, Steve.)
It's clear the creators are paying attention to the buzz. The rst episode of season two opened with a montage of Jewfroed school-paper reporter-blogger Jacob badgering the gang about how they spent their summer vacations; his questions poked meta-fun at both the online sniping about the show (to Mr. Schuester: "Did you know there's a forum on my blog that's begging you to stop rapping?") and its stars' newfound tabloid-bait status (to Rachel: "How do you respond to rumors you're incredibly dicult to work with?"). But it remains to be seen whether self-awareness alone can ensure long-term viability. Even Glee's biggest defenders remember how Ryan Murphy's last TV show, Nip/Tuck, spiraled off into craziness, with story lines whose escalating sick-fuckitude—auto-mastectomies, serial killers, sex scenes involving Rosie O'Donnell—suggested that the writers were sucking down Joker gas during meetings.
Monteith, for one, thinks it's entirely possible that this show will go to some crazy Ryan Murphyish places before it's over—and he's ready to go there with it.
"I wouldn't put it past [Murphy] for Finn to go to military school at the end of season three," Monteith says, "or for him to turn into the creepy janitor who gave up on his football dreams and stalks freshmen."
After all, Monteith is 27 playing 16, closer every day to the point where it'll look weird for him to be hanging around a high school. Recall those late Happy Days episodes in which the Fonz looks 47. Or That '70s Show, toward the end. Ashton Kutcher—grown-man-sized, still playing Kelso, still smoking dope in that basement, straining credulity.
Kelso, Monteith points out, "is Finn, basically." And there are worse things than a Kutcheresque arc. "Big ups to the guy," Monteith says. "He's diversied, and that came from playing a pretty one-dimensional dumb-ass."
Monteith's already laying the groundwork for a post-dumb-ass career. At the end of the Glee tour, he got on a plane to Budapest to shoot a romantic-comedy-caper movie called Monte Carlo. Selena Gomez is in it, and Leighton Meester, and Katie Cassidy from Melrose Place; Monteith plays Cassidy's confused Texan boyfriend.
He shot his scenes in ve weeks. I ask how he found the time, given that tight schedule, to make love to all his female co-stars.
Monteith laughs. "I appreciate that people make that assumption about me. But—no. They were all hot. They all had boyfriends. What can I say?"
He says he spent his downtime seeing the world. On the weekends, he'd throw clean underwear and a toothbrush in his bag, pick a place in Europe off the departure board at the airport, and go.
Okay, great. Did Ryan Murphy really make a no-trailer-sex rule?
"The rst I heard about that was in the media," Monteith says. "I was like, 'Oh, really? Dammit!' "
Because you'd already broken that rule?
"No comment," Monteith says.
That's a yes, I say.
"But I get it. I get what Ryan was saying, when he said that."
So there's some truth to it? Is it that he doesn't want you to all have sex with one another and then deal with the fallout that comes with that, for the unity of the cast?
"Yeah," Monteith says, "that's implied. There's a beautiful chemistry to this show, and messing with that would be dangerous."
What really goes on in those trailers, Monteith says: They all, like, hang out.
"This sounds really cliché, but it's true—it's the high school experience I always wanted. Where we're all growing into this new life together and guring it all out as we go. I remember I'd come home from fth, sixth grade, and I'd watch Saved by the Bell and be like, 'I hope my high school experience is like that.' And it totally wasn't. It sucked."
Be True to Your School Dusk settles on Cabrillo High; the "One of Us" number is in the can. Monteith is outside, digging for dehydrated peaches in a basket of trail mix. He's holding a box containing one of those electronic-cigarette nicotine-delivery systems, although he swears it's not his. (Also, stay in school, kids!)
I run into Michele; she talks about how weird the photo shoot was for this story. "I don't know how they got me to do half the stuff I did," she says, wide-eyed. "But I was in really good shape this summer, so…"
She asks me what I'm doing here. I tell her I'm checking up on all of them, like the person who visits the set to verify that no animals are being abused. I'm worried that Fox is pushing you guys too hard, I say. You're their cash cow. They're going to burn you out until there's nothing left.
"Oh yeah, they already are," Michele says, smiling. "I have lashes on my butt." Then she gets on a pink beach-cruiser bicycle and rides off to her trailer, where she will presumably not have sex.

Just thought I'd take a moment and intro myself.
I'm a commercial photographer in Texas that has had a penchant for magic since age 12. I learned the old-fashioned way. Got a mentor when I was perusing the shelves at a magic shop. He took me under his wing, let me borrow any books, magazines, tricks that I wanted. And we met together on Saturdays to show what I learned.
Went on the road at age 16 as an assistant for a traveling magician. And occasionally would get the stage to myself.
My magical stylings now lean more toward the mentalism side. And minimalist. I want my magic to look real. But my favorite thing is simply taking chances. As a mentalist, it's ok to fail every now and then. And I take full advantage of that. If I have to have my predicted selection chosen from 4 items, why not just let fate step in and see if they choose it without any forcing. If it works, it's more than a miracle. If it doesn't, I simply more into an out.
So, that's where I'm at. Always looking to learn. Thanks for the chance to say hi!
Hey, Mark! Glad to have you here. Jump right in and join in the conversations.
Welcome to the Forum Mark. Look around, check out the current and past discussions - and feel free to bring an old discussion back to life. There is a ton of wisdom and knowledge at your fingertips here.
Welcome to TMF Mark! There is a lot to learn here...very interesting background you have, going on the road at that age, very few have done that.

I was once watching Bob little performing at a magic convention. He started by randomly taking one card out of a deck, asked the spectator to think of one card. And it was the card Mr Little was holding in his hand. It was a miracle. We all stood there with our mouths open. Because it was basically a room full of magicians he simply stopped and explained that he always starts with this trick, and it is always wrong card, ( the shtick is just a set u for the rest of the routine) and here for the first time ever it just happened to be the right card. So now where do you go? It is very hard to continue when a miracle is your opening.
Take a bow and walk away. LOL. I love that! Thanks for sharing that!
I've got a simple effect that I do with 4 biz cards and a "you'll pick this card" on the back of one. I do a few things that direct them to the card, but it's really a bit of a game of chance with a lil' Derren Brown thrown in for good measure. I've done the effect about 1000 times and the spectator hits about 75% of the time on the first choice. That's good enough for me and makes for a minor miracle. Magician's choice my way out if it doesn't.
I have a card magician friend who's a perfectionist that is driven insane by my effect. He gets so nervous about it. But I love it!
