...racial identities: Booker T. Washington, Tina Turner, and Greg Louganis are three examples. This phenomenon isn't entirely pernicious; it is at least partly rooted in our concern that growing up with a fractured identity is hard on kids. The psychologist J.D. Teicher summarized this view in a 1968 paper: "Although the burden of the Negro child is recognized as a heavy one, that of the Negro-White child is seen to be even heavier...
...obsessive compulsive practicality and pragmatism as the highest and most glorious art of all. In our many lecture halls, one must un-learn the practice of risk-taking for that of cozy financial security. Some lucky few though, like Cornell graduate and actress Carla Gallo, skipped those classes on paper-pushing perfection in favor of greater passions. If you’ve watched one of Judd Aptow’s brohiem sagas from the past five years, then you probably have seen Carla Gallo. To jog your memory, she played “Toe-Sucking Girl?...
...founder. James M.

A few steps down the corridor reveal equally fascinating creations, from faces with penetrating expressions illuminated against silkscreen backdrops to eight colorful digital animations looping on a video...
Today, Libé has a new benefactor in the form of Edouard de Rothschild, and a new unstarry-eyed editor, Laurent Joffrin. The paper flirted briefly with break-even in 2007 and it's trying to find a way to go post-ideological, sort of. The Net, conferences, French open-shirted philosopher Bernard-Henri Lévy shilling with advertisers - the new Libé will try almost anything. Joffrin even invited Carla Bruni, wife of France's rightist President Nicolas Sarkozy, to serve as celebrity editor for a day, but that was a step too far and Joffrin was forced...
