...millennial myself, I'm disappointed how frequently I hear of "the youth" wasting their days in front of social-networking sites or hanging onto their phones. Few people ever consider the interconnected and networked mass we represent. While we may never be able to help stop an unjust war like our parents did before us, the overwhelming role the youth played in electing a candidate as revolutionary as President Obama is indicative of how powerful we have become. We are the politicians, the journalists and the soldiers of the future but we have already begun to play our role. Luke...

...years right after 1913 were an anxious time for Matisse. Born in 1869, he entered his mid-40s more visible than ever in the art world, but with work that to the French was still an eyesore. Though for the first time he was making enough money from his art to buy his family a comfortable house in a Paris suburb, much of his income derived from a single Russian patron, Sergei Shchukin, a wealthy merchant willing to fill his drawing room with Matisse's most difficult pictures while Moscow society snickered.
