Badger Questions & AnswersWhat is the shelf life of an unopened tin of Badger?An unopened tin of Badger stored at moderate temperatures should be good for three years. If you open it and it smells good, it is good. Since most of their products are made with a base of olive oil and beeswax, both natural preservatives, even a balm that doesn't smell as good is still safe to use, just not as pleasant! They do not use chemical stabilizers or any other nasty stuff, so extremes in temperature (such as freezing, thawing, and humidity) can affect shelf life by changing the consistency and lessening the scent of the balm. All of their tins are imprinted with a "Best By" date on the outside of the lid, which is three years from manufacture. Their lip balms have both a date of manufacture and a "BB" (best by) date stamped on the bottom of the stick, which is two years after manufacture. Their oils have a "Best By" date sticker on the product boxes as well as on the bottom of the glass bottle, which is two years from the manufacture date. Their sunscreens have an "EXP" (expiration date) imprinted on the top of the tube within the crimped seal, which is two years from the manufacture date.
How long will an opened tin last? As soon as you open a tin of any product and use it, the life span varies. Since Badger does not use any chemical stabilizers, factors such as storage temperature and humidity, as well as how clean the fingers are that scoop out the product impact an open tin's life span. Essential oils will slowly but surely evaporate from an open tin; that's the pleasant fragrance you smell when you open one. You can expect your opened balm to stay good for 12 months, however if it looks good and smells good, it is still good!
How can I make sure my Badger stays fresh?Keep it covered when not in use. Keep your product out of direct sun when possible, and avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Refrigeration is not necessary, but it will certainly prolong the life of the product.
Why does the balm in my tin of Badger look different than the last time I bought it?Badger uses only minimally-processed natural ingredients, and because of this, variation in color from one batch to another is common. Normal variance in sunshine, rain, or temperature from year to year or country harvested can all subtly affect natural ingredients. One season's pressing of Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil may be greener in color than others, or you may experience a stronger or subtler scent with an essential oil. These are all normal and to be expected with natural ingredients.
What happens if one of my Badger products freezes or melts? Can I still use it? Absolutely. However, you may find that the consistency will change a little. Sometimes the product becomes much softer and creamier if it freezes and then thaws, but it is still absolutely fine to use.
Can I use Badger products on my face?Badger products are so natural that they are safe to use anywhere on your body. Of course, they don't recommend using their Muscle & Joint Rubs on your face, so please use your own discretion and common sense. Their Damascus Rose Beauty Balm, Damascus Rose Face Oil, Damascus Rose SPF 16 Face Sunscreen Lotion, and SPF 16 Sunscreen Lotion were formulated for use on the face, and they receive a lot of feedback from Badgers all over the world who say it that these products softens and smooth their skin like none other. Damascus Rose SPF 16 Face Sunscreen Lotion and SPF 16 Sunscreen Lotion have been tested & approved Non-Comedogenic (won't clog pores).
I'm pregnant and/or nursing, are your products safe for me?Pregnant or nursing moms should always check with their doctors. Badger uses only the highest quality natural and USDA Certified Organic ingredients. No chemicals or chemical derivatives are used, and the essential oils used are in low percentages, therefore moderate use should be safe for all. As with all new products, it is best to do a skin patch test to test for possible allergic reactions.
Can I use your products on my children/baby?Absolutely! They have received feedback from moms, dads and grandparents that Badger Balm and Baby Balm are safe and effective when used on even the littlest Badger's skin irritations, cradle cap and diaper rash. Many people also use their Anti- Bug Repellents, Sleep Balm, Bali Balm, and Night-Night Balm as natural alternatives for their children. As with all new products it is best to do a skin patch test prior to full usage to test for any skin allergies, and if you have any questions please check with your doctor.
I have allergies to Gluten, are Badger Products safe for me?Badger does not use any gluten or gluten-derived ingredients at their facility in New Hampshire, so their balms, oils, Anti-Bug Shake & Spray and Anti-Bug Stick are filled on machinery that has not processed gluten materials. However, Badger is not a certified gluten-free facility, so there cannot be a 100% guarantee. When using a new product for the first time, it is a good idea to read their full-disclosure labels carefully and/or perform a skin patch test prior to full use.
Badger sunscreens manufactured prior to June 2012 contain Tocopherol (natural vitamin E), which is partially derived from wheat germ oil. All of Badger Sunscreens manufactured after June 2012 are made with 100% Sunflower-derived Vitamin E. Look for this specification (eg: Tocopherol (Sunflower Vitamin E) on the product label if you have allergies. In addition, all of Badger Sunscreens are filled in a facility that also processes wheat and gluten materials on the same machinery. This facility does careful cleanings between product transitions to greatly reduce the possibility of cross contamination, but since they do process wheat and gluten they cannot guarantee those products gluten free. Their SPF 16 Lotions (Aloe Vera & Damascus Rose), and their SPF 35 Sport Sunscreen do not contain any Tocopherol.
Their lip balm sticks are filled by an off- sight subcontractor who also processes wheat amino acids and wheat proteins. Measures are taken to prevent cross contamination and all GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards are followed. Batches are also periodically tested to be sure that the cleaning processes are sufficient to reduce cross contamination of any allergens; however these products cannot be guaranteed gluten-free.
I have allergies to Peanuts & Tree Nuts - are Badger products safe for me to use?Badger products do not contain peanuts or peanut products. However, Badger does not claim that their products are peanut-free because they do not have a peanut-free certification.
Products that are manufactured at their subcontractors' facilities (lip balms; sunscreens; soaps) do not contain peanuts. However they may be produced on equipment that does produce products containing peanuts. While GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) standards are met during the cleaning process, the company does not claim to have a peanut free facility, nor does it hold any peanut-free certifications.
Some Badger products contain Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Soybean Oil, and Nutmeg. All of these ingredients have been linked to severe nut allergies and may or may not cause a reaction. GMP standards for cleaning are followed to eliminate any possible cross contamination at the Badger facility and its subcontractors', however they cannot guarantee that any of their products are 100% nut-free, nor do they currently hold any certifications for this. When using a new product for the first time, it is a good idea to read their full-disclosure labels carefully and/or perform a skin patch test prior to full use.
I have allergies to Soy - are Badger products safe for me to use?Currently there are only a few things in the Badger lineup that contain soy derivatives: the Anti-Bug Shake & Spray has Soybean Oil, their lotion-based sunscreens (SPF 16 Aloe Vera, and Damascus Rose SPF 16 Face Sunscreen) contain soy ingredients as part of the emulsifiers. Badger sunscreens manufactured prior to June 2012 contain Tocopherol (natural vitamin E), which is partially derived from soy. All of Badger Sunscreens manufactured after June 2012 are made with 100% Sunflower- derived Vitamin E. Look for this specification (eg: Tocopherol (Sunflower Vitamin E) on the product label if you have allergies.
All the Body Oils and Massage Oils (including Baby Oil and Damascus Rose Face Oil) are filled using the same machine that fills the Anti-Bug Shake & Spray bottle. Although they are careful to perform GMP compliant cleanings between all batches to reduce the chance of cross contamination, they are not a certified Soy-free facility. All balms packaged in the tins are made on machinery that has not touched any soy ingredients. So, although they are not a certified soy-free facility, these items have very low risk of any cross contamination. When using a new product for the first time, it is a good idea to read their full-disclosure labels carefully and/or perform a skin patch test prior to full use.
I have allergies to Corn - are Badger products safe for me to use?Badger sunscreens manufactured prior to June 2012 contain Tocopherol (natural vitamin E), which is partially derived from corn. All of Badger Sunscreens manufactured after June 2012 are made with 100% Sunflower- derived Vitamin E. Look for this specification (eg: Tocopherol (Sunflower Vitamin E) on the product label if you have allergies.
When using a new product for the first time, it is a good idea to read their full-disclosure labels carefully and/or perform a skin patch test prior to full use.
My dog, cat, lizard ate my tin of Badger, will they be OK?All the ingredients contained in Badger products are natural (and most of them are also food-grade Certified Organic). In most cases, if consumed by a pet (except cats), there would be no harmful effect. Cats cannot process essential oils, so if the product has a high essential oil content it may make your cat sick. Check with your vet to be sure, since different animals have different sensitivities to essential oils, and though we're Badgers we're no animal experts!
Is it ok to use Badger on my cat? No, it is not okay to use any product containing essential oils on a cat. They cannot process essential oils in the same way that dogs or humans do and it may make them sick.
Do you do animal testing?No way - they love animals and will never test on them! W.S. Badger conducts absolutely no product testing on animals, as all the ingredients are safe and "food grade" when used in the proper amounts (their essential oils are always properly diluted.) They test all prototype products on families, friends, volunteers and ourselves. It's fun. If the new product does not pass their tough standards it does not make it to the marketplace. They are also certified by Leaping Bunny which means that not only do they not test their products on animals, but they have confirmed that none of their suppliers test their ingredients on animals either.
Do Badger products contain any animal ingredients? Do you use oil made from badgers in your products?No, their products do not contain any animal ingredients and this includes badger oil. Most of their products do contain beeswax, which is produced by bees. Currently, only their Massage Oils, Body Oils (including Baby Oil), Face Oil, Damascus Rose SPF 16 Face Sunscreen Lotion, and SPF 16 Sunscreen Lotion with Aloe Vera are vegan.
Do Badger formulas contain any chemical ingredients?Read their labels and you will not see any petroleum derived products, sodium lauryl sulfate, chemical additives, chemical preservatives, synthetics, dyes or fragrances, parabens, or carcinogens. They are committed to being chemical-free, 100% natural and USDA Certified Organic, and almost all of their products bear the official USDA Organic seal. All of their minerals, including zinc oxide and the minerals in their tinted lip balms are processed in a laboratory to ensure purity.
Do their products contain sunscreen?Only products labeled with an SPF value are registered with the FDA as sunscreens. Their Lip Tint and Shimmers do contain minerals that offer some sun protection (titanium dioxide and iron oxide) but these are not registered sunscreen products and they make no claims as to their sun screening ability. Their other balms do help heal and soothe dry parched skin but offer no protection from the sun. See their About Badger Sunscreens page for more information on Badger's full line of sunscreen products.
Do Badger products contain antioxidants, particularly vitamin E?Yes, Badger products are rich in antioxidants and vitamin E, which naturally occurs in the oils, butters, waxes, and extracts they use to formulate their powerfully pure products. Their sunscreen creams use a naturally-derived Sunflower Vitamin E for preservation. They believe that the best place to get these is from the plants they naturally occur in.
Do their plastic tubes contain BPA or Phthalates?No, they are BPA- and Phthalate- free.About Badger Badger is a small, family-owned & family- friendly company nestled on the banks of the Ashuelot River in rural Gilsum, New Hampshire. They blend organic plant extracts, exotic oils and butters and beeswax, and make healing balms, lip balms, safe mineral sunscreens and other personal care products that work and feel remarkably good. Badger products are uniquely formulated blends of the finest organic ingredients available anywhere in the world. Their Philosophy of Formulation is simple: make products for people they love, and then share them with the world. They combine years of tradition, research, and lots of love to create products that work as well as you expect them to.
They hold every single ingredient to the "Badger Natural Standard", a rigorous look at the growth, sustainability, and supply chain of each ingredient they use. That means that when you use Badger products, you can be sure that you are using the purest, most natural products available. And because the USDA Organic Certification is a food-grade standard, their ingredients are even pure enough to eat! Badger's USDA Certified Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil comes from a single estate in Southern Spain, and that very same Olive Oil is used by Michelin Star-winning chefs in France and Spain! In fact, all of the Badgers eat the very same Olive Oil in Badger's organic lunches, and many of them purchase it to use in their home kitchens. And of course, they use only the finest, purest essential oils from the far corners of the globe. One example is the Organic Rose Oil (Rosa Damascena) that comes from Bulgaria - the blossoms are hand picked before dawn and steam-distilled the very same day. It takes about 5 tons of fresh rose blossoms to make one liter of oil, and Badger pays over $4,000 per liter for that precious stuff!
That's the Badger difference, and what makes Badger unique.

Three things you should know about Badger products: • They are 100% Natural. 98% "Natural" isn't good enough for us. They never use chemicals, synthetics, GMO's, parabens, toxic preservatives or any of the other bad stuff that you've read so much about. (They like animals, so, obviously, no animal testing either.) • They use from 70%-100% certified organic ingredients in almost every product. They're talking exceptional natural quality. Their ingredients are always naturally processed. This is very important, as chemical processing can rob the life from a natural botanical that was originally designed by nature to be whole and good.

Loews Philadelphia Hotel
Commission brief: In 1926, the Philadelphia architecture firm of Mellor, Meigs, and Howe received a new commission from the Philadelphia Saving Fund Society (PSFS) for a 15-story bank and office building. The firm produces a Beaux-Arts inspired design but the project is put on hold until the company tests the feasibility of the proposed site on South 12th Street. After testing the new location for two years and confident of the site, PSFS makes the decision to move forward with the skyscraper project. Because George Howe ends his working relationship with Mellor & Meigs during 1928, PSFS solicits design schemes from both the original firm and Howe in 1929. Upon review of the submitted schemes, they rejected the more traditional design submitted by Mellor & Meigs and opt for Howe's modern proposal. Howe had discarded the earlier Beaux-Arts concept in favor or one that referenced ideas of the European International Style and the Chicago School.In 1929, Howe enters into a new partnership with William Lescaze. Lescaze, a Swiss-born architect, was devoted to the ideas of Modernist design. With the formation of the new partnership, the two architects begin jointly developing the design scheme for PSFS.
Design brief: The design for the building evolves during 1929 and 1930. Although George Howe independently submits the original design proposal, it was after he began working with William Lescaze that the design begins to reflect the building's final form. In July of 1930, a model of the proposed skyscraper is presented to the PSFS Building Committee. President Willcox encourages the architects to continue working the scheme. He is concerned that the detailing is too horizontal and wants a design that speaks to the verticality that will be reflective of the height of the building. By this point, the building design is 36 stories tall. Numerous variations of the scheme are worked from July to December. In early December 1930, the final design is approved by the company's Building Committee. As part of the overall approved plan, the architects are enlisted to create designs for a range of items including lighting, bathroom fixtures, clocks, furniture and numerous other details for the buildings interior space.
Building/construction:In January 1930 building plans are filed with the city of Philadelphia and excavation of the corner lot at Market Street and South 12th Street begins. The steel frame of the building begins to rise later that year and construction is completed in 1932.
The PSFS Building is a 36-story steel-framed building that rises 491 feet above street level. Polished black granite, light gray limestone, black and gray brick, and stainless steel are used to create form and massing on the building's exterior. The building has been described as visually "sleek and streamlined" with it vertical bands and horizontal ribs. It is divided up into three sections – the base, the cantilevered office slab, and the vertical service "spine." Howe & Lescaze were involved with the entire design of the building down to the smaller details including the sign graphics, bathroom fixtures, clocks manufactured by Cartier. The rooms on the top floor were reserved for use by the board of directors. These rooms were detailed with a mix of high-end woods, brass fixtures, and custom designed furniture. Although the building began construction after the stock market crash of 1929, the PSFS company invested high-quality materials in the construction of their building as a means of demonstrating their commitment to the future of the company. The most visible feature of the building which can be seen from a great distance away, is the 27-foot high "PSFS" roof sign that is a focal point of the Philadelphia skyline. As a result of the thoughtful use of materials and design, the building has to be an enduring presence since it opened in 1932.
In November 1932 the new PSFS Building opens. The building's modern design includes "high-speed elevators, thermostatically controlled heat, radio outlets in every office, acoustic ceiling tile carried on metal frames, a nearby garage, and most importantly, 'manufactured weather' or central air conditioning…" The PSFS building would boast upon completion of the second air conditioned office building in the United States (as well as the tallest). Final design of the roof includes a 27-foot neon sign. The sign, visible from 20 miles away, will transform the Philadelphia skyline and make the term "PSFS" (versus the more formal "Philadelphia Saving Fund Society") part of local Philadelphia vernacular. Original situation or character of site: Upon completion, the 36-story PSFS Building towered over the surrounding downtown buildings. At 491 ft. high, the building was surpassed in 1932 only by the statue of William Penn on top of Philadelphia's city hall.
The PSFS building was the second air conditioned (and tallest with a/c) office building in the United States. Upon opening in 1932, the building could boast many new technological advances including aluminum ribbon windows, thermostatically controlled heat, radio outlets in every office, acoustic ceiling tile carried on metal frames, high-speed elevators, and more. The overall plan of PSFS was revolutionary not only in its forward thinking approach to its functionality but also in its mechanical systems and equipment.
The construction of a modern building by the oldest and one of the most trusted banking institutions in the city altered the identity of Philadelphia. Always self-conscious as a place of rich historic tradition and buildings, the PSFS building allowed the city to evolve toward a new type of future, in which the old could readily co-exist with the new.
The building is viewed nationally and internationally as the first example of an International Style skyscraper in the United States, as well as one that masterfully executed the ideals of the style. Two exhibits, one historically notable and one more recent, are a testament to the building's continuing influence in architecture. The first one, the building's inclusion in the 1932 International Style exhibit organized by Henry-Russell Hitchcock and Philip Johnson at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The exhibit coincided closely with the opening of the building, bringing it to the immediate attention of the design community and general public. Even more recently, the 2004 exhibit Nothing More Modern held at Yale University took a close look at the evolution of the design and its embodiment of the modern. In addition to its influence upon changing architectural tastes, the PSFS building led the way for a new approach to the planning and development of office buildings in the United States, with its continued influence still seen throughout new commercial design today.
The building resulted from a collaborative working relationship between the president of the company, James M. Willcox and the architects. The goal was to create a building that met the company's business needs in addition to income producing rental office space. With the retail shops on the first floor, the PSFS banking hall on the second, and offices rising up to the 36th floor, the building was a pioneering design of "mixed-use" development. It is this understanding of the key role that business needs and its evolving culture should play in the development of this building that is critical to its importance. The president of the company was supportive of the design, in that he felt that its form met the needs of his company and the people who would be using it. On opening day of the PSFS Building, President James M. Willcox announces that "This building is ultra-modern only in the sense that it is ultra-practical."

The Carolinas Literacy Network's (CLN) goal is to provide the Lancaster community with different resources to promote literacy in all of its forms.
One way it does that is with the Second Glance, Second Chance book exchange, a bookstore that lets readers come and select books to read and keep for free.
The program started in November 2009, and has more than 9,000 books to choose from.
From mystery to history, and biography to romance, there is something for everyone.
Retired teachers and staff members from Erwin Elementary School met on Sunday, June 23, at the Wagon Wheel to reconnect, share memories, renew old friendships, catch up on each other's lives, laugh and brag on grandchildren.
Based on the response, It was decided to make this event an annual reunion.
Many of these teachers helped open Erwin Elementary in 1975.
The group represents more than 800 years combined years of teaching and guiding children in Lancaster County.

A chain of vehicle collisions that sent four people to area hospitals and shut down a section of U.S. 78 for more than an hour on Tuesday morning may have been the result of thick fog, according to the S.C. Highway Patrol.
According to Lance Cpl. Judd Jones, the initial collision happened at 9:25 a.m. on U.S. 78 just outside of the Aiken city limits. Five subsequent collisions happened after that.
"Fog may be a contributing factor that started off a chain of events," Jones said, adding that four people were transported to area hospitals with minor injuries.
No charges had been filed as of Tuesday afternoon. State troopers and cleaning crews were on the scene until about 11 a.m.
Dense fog and low visibility greeted drivers on Tuesday morning, and the National Weather Service issued a dense fog advisory.
William Pierron, of Windsor, was one of the drivers involved in the multiple collisions.
"I was going down the road, and the visibility was low," he said. "About 15 feet in front of me was this wreck that just happened, like two or three minutes before I got there."
Pierron said his small Toyota pickup collided with a UPS truck that had struck a red pickup in front of it.
"The red truck was there first," he said. "He pulled out in front of the semi. The Aiken County dog catcher stopped to help, then the UPS truck ran slap into him. I came shortly after that and ran into the UPS truck."
Pierron said his vehicle was totaled. He was not injured.
"Pretty much, everybody's OK, there's no fatalities," he said. "It could have been a lot worse. Luckily, nobody was really going that fast due to the fog."
Keisha Stahl lives on Woodward Drive in Montmorenci, which runs parallel to Charleston Highway where the wrecks happened.
"My mom was outside feeding the dog and she heard 'screech,' and a crunch," Stahl said. "I think, 'There's a wreck,' not thinking anything of it. The next thing I know, cars are coming (down Woodward Drive), so we know there's something going on on 78."
Stahl said they saw a white truck had struck a white car, and that a Honda struck the back of the truck. After they heard the first collision, she and her mother went outside and stood on the railroad tracks.
"As we're standing there, there was a gray truck that's already been removed from the scene," she said. "It rammed the back of a white truck, which hit a Pontiac, which hit the back of a Cadillac. It was a four- or five-car (wreck) just from that truck. After he hit them, I'm guessing he might have jerked a little bit because he scraped the side of all the cars he had already caused to hit each other."
Elizabeth Crech, of Montmorenci, was traveling toward Aiken when she came upon the scene.
"I could see the cars were backed up, and I was driving slow due to the fog," she said. "Sitting here and watching this wreck, I got out of my vehicle to see if we were going to move soon and a gentleman behind me got out. All of a sudden, we heard a screeching noise, we look back and the wreck behind us occurred."
Crech said she and other motorists were "stuck" between the two wrecks until crews cleared the scene.

General Electric Building
National Register of Historic Places: Listed January 28, 2004
New York City Landmark: Designated July 9, 1985
The General Electric Building was originally designed and built for the RCA-Victor Corporation in order to create a highly visible image for the company, which, by the late 1920's was in the forefront of the radio and communications industry. Architects Cross and Cross designed the building in the Gothic mode of the Art Deco style that is both representative of the building's original intended tenant, RCA, and symbolic of the power and modern development of radio. Waves, bolts of lightning, and faces of "electric spirits" that project out from the facades are incorporated into the exterior ornament, directly convey this symbolism. This symbolic representation of the client through architectural ornament became a signature of Cross and Cross that they perfected through a variety of stylistic idioms, however nowhere was this more expertly executed than the General Electric Building.
The General Electric building is an Art Deco style skyscraper. The General Electric Building is a fifty-story office building located in mid-town Manhattan at the southwest corner of Lexington Avenue and East 51st Street. The main facades face east on to Lexington Avenue, where the main entrance is located, and north onto East 51st Street. The building sits immediately adjacent to St. Bartholomew's Church to the west and a 25-story office building to the south. The General Electric Building's slender tower rises from the twenty-sixth floor of the building, setting the building apart from the adjacent buildings. The unique spire characterizes the building as one of midtown's most distinctive office high-rises.
May 1930- December 1931
When RCA acquired the property, the block was dominated by period-revival buildings, including Byzantine-Romanesque style St. Bartholomew's Church to the west and the Academic Gothic style Cathedral High School (no longer extant) to the south. A conscious effort was made by Cross and Cross for the new building to be compatible with the existing adjacent buildings aesthetically. While the General Electric Building rises dramatically above the existing St. Bartholomew's church, the use of Gothic inspired ornament and compatible materials and colors, prevents the building from visually dominating the church, and rather it is viewed as a contextual contribution to the block. On the other hand, the General Electric Building is not merely backdrop for St. Bartholomew's Church; it's a work of art in its own right.
The RCA building is rather conventional from a technical point of view. It is a steel frame skyscraper with a brick and terracotta envelope.
By the late 1920's, the RCA-Victor Corporation was a leader in the radio and communications industry and was in need of a headquarters building. The corporation had only come into existence at the end of the previous decade as a result of the rapid acceptance of radio technology that began at the turn of the century. A group of companies were merged to form RCA as a subsidiary of General Electric. By 1929, RCA had experienced tremendous growth, with subsidiaries that included the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) and Radio-Keith-Orpheum (RKO, a leading producer, distributor, and exhibitor of motion pictures) and had also acquired the Victor Talking Machine Corporation, officially becoming RCA-Victor Corporation. In order to best solidify their burgeoning corporate identity, RCA-Victor wanted a building that physically expressed their new independent image and the power of the radio industry.
Also at this time, American architects who were classically-trained, often at the Ecole des Beaux Arts, began to work with a new stylistic expression. The Art Deco style in particular allowed for the exploration of new creative avenues, seemingly without reference to the past, but without a dramatic technological change to the structure of buildings. Additionally, the 1920's saw a development boom in mid-town Manhattan that led to the proliferation of Art Deco skyscrapers in this area. In this climate of an emergent radio industry, a new architectural expression, and rampant high-rise development, the unique design General Electric Building was born.
The RCA building exemplifies the characteristic of the Art Deco's innovative adaptation of traditional motifs to modern forms. The General Electric Building main goal was to express the power of radio and importance of the RCA-Victor company as a corporate entity through its architecture. One architectural convention remains common to most designs by Cross and Cross, and that is the high quality of a building's ornamental program, regardless of style or scale. Often a personification is applied or emerges in the ornament, like a signature of their work. With the development of the high rise office building, Cross and Cross's use of symbolism in ornament becomes more distinct and dually significant as a form of advertisement. This is clearly, and best, articulated in the General Electric Building, where the brick and terracotta ornament inspired by electricity and radio waves is artfully expressed throughout the design. The ornament is a metaphor for not only the building's vertical dynamism, but also the building's initial clients and the power of radio. John Walter Cross explained his efforts to make the building symbolic of radio: "Romantic though radio may be, it is at the same time intangible and elusive--a thing which can be captured visually only through symbolism. It is energy in almost the pure state, which challenges us to depict in design the very fundamentals of our universe." He further dramatized the wonder of his symbolism by describing: "at night an aura of colored light will shoot out from the crown of forked lightning which each figure will wear as a symbol of the speed of radio" (Real Estate Record and Guide, May 30, 1931). By using its architectural features to express a heavily symbolic design aesthetic, the General Electric Building embodies the modern ideal of ornament derived from the structure and theme of the building.
Although specifically designed for RCA, the building's deliberate ornamental program was equally suited for the company that later occupied the building for over sixty years, General Electric. In 1929, RCA-Victor, a subsidiary of General Electric, had experienced tremendous growth, and plans were begun for a new headquarters building designed by Cross and Cross at East 51st and Lexington Avenue. RCA put together a corporate entity called the Bartholomew Building Corporation to acquire property and construct a building. By the end of 1929, the property had been acquired and a building permit was issued, and construction began on the following May. Meanwhile, General Electric began negotiating a move of RCA to Rockefeller Center, which was still in the planning stages. In order to be released from GE's constraints on manufacturing, RCA negotiated a deal that included trading large blocks of RCA stock and the office building under construction at 570 Lexington Avenue for exclusive manufacturing rights and royalties. In January 1931, the RCA-Victor Building officially became the General Electric Building.
Upon completion in December 1931, the General Electric Building won unanimous acclaim from both critics and the general public for the design's contextual juxtaposition of two buildings of different scale, type and age. J. Clydesdale Cushman, whose firm managed the new building, praised the sensitivity of the architects in the face of the all too prevalent disregard for adjoining properties in Real Estate Record and Guide in April 1931: "In the instance of the RCA Building, however, an advanced step has been taken in that consideration was given by its architects to the previously established styles and color schemes of the existing abutting buildings with the happy result that a new note of harmonious treatment of the ensemble has been struck which I am convinced is a great step in the right direction towards the setting of a new style in New York." (Excerpt from the New York Landmarks Commission's General Electric Building Designation Report, 1985).
The design of the General Electric Building melds the soaring verticality and decorative intricacy of the Art Deco style. Its inventive ornamental symbolism was part of a broader search for a new modernist architectural symbolic language for the Jazz Age. The building is a sophisticated piece of urban infill that responds to the adjacent building context while also evoking the dynamic energy of radio transmission and electrical currents. From its chrome and marble lobby to its radio waves crown, the General Electric Building articulates symbolism and metaphor for both advertising and design through its architecture. The building is the best example of Cross and Cross's iconographic design and one of New York City's finest expressions of the Art Deco style.

Who in their right mind wants to go out for Halloween dressed as the oft-maligned sidekick to the greatest superhero of all-time?!
No one, that's who.
I guarantee you this kid develops all-kinds of mommy and daddy issues stemming from this particular Halloween.
I'll start taking bets right now, I've got good money on this kid spending his teenage years submitting audition video after audition video to the "Jerry Springer Show."
He'll be in and out of therapists' offices until he's in his mid-30s and finds himself subconsciously doing the same thing to his own unsuspecting child who just wanted to go as The MotherF'n Batman like everyone else.
Whomever keeps churning out these Robin costumes is a monster and they must be stopped. By any means necessary.

You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
A cat, on the other hand, is a whole different ballgame.
Or at least that's the vibe I'm getting thanks to the release of information about a thwarted New Years' Eve jailbreak in Brazil.
Prison guards at the Judge Luiz de Oliveira Souza prison, in the city of Arapiraca, reported found a black and white cat unwittingly (or was he?) attempting to smuggle in a kit of prison break supplies.
Here's the info from CNN.com:
"The cat had a cell phone, drills, assorted batteries and two saws taped to its body when it was spotted by guards on December 31 as it was about to enter the prison…"
"The prison's more than 250 inmates were all considered suspects as officials said they did not immediately know who the cat was supposed to be aiding."
I'm going to go ahead and declare that this would have been—beyond a shadow of a doubt—the single cutest prison break in the history of prison breaks.
The entire thing sounds like the plot of an animated Disney movie where Will Smith would be doing the voice of the cat and Kevin James would be the voice of one of the bumbling prison guards who almost let it happen.
Honestly, part of me wishes the entire thing had gone down successfully just so this cat could get his just desserts. There's no way the prisoner behind this scheme didn't offer this cat everything his tiny brain could want, right?
This cat should have had years' worth of Temptations treats and laser pointers and mountains of catnip in his future.
Instead, the guards pop him on his way in the door and he gets shuttled off to animal control where they've undoubtedly been grilling him to no end, based on this ridiculous quote from O Estado de S. Paulo the daily newspaper of São Paulo, Brazil:
"It's hard to know who is responsible for the action, since the cat does not talk," the management of the prison, through the press office.
Good thing the folks managing the prison made a point to let everyone know the cat doesn't talk. I mean, if they hadn't, surely people who have suspected it was an inside job.
I mean, how else do you explain keeping a suspect in custody for more than a week without getting any answers out of him? You can't. You simply cannot.
Real talk, I'm suddenly very wary of Honey.
I feel like her services could be bought with the promise of a can of tuna. Not even good tuna, like, "Chicken of the Sea" or something.
Yeah, the way she's looking at me right now makes me think she's already made a deal with someone.
If I don't post for another couple of days, go ahead and assume that Honey's loyalties have been been purchased and I'm chained to a cement block at the bottom of the Charles River whilst Honey and her new-found friends are playing my Playstation3 and eating all of my Ben and Jerry's.

This is a Sponsored post. Hickies provided the product in exchange for an honest review.
I absolutely hate tying my shoes when I'm just going outside to take the trash out. If I wear my flip flops then my feet get wet (I take out the trash in the mornings). When I can't find my flip flops then its my nice closed toed slippers. But then again, they get wet. After years of not tying my shoes my laces end up like this:
A few things. First, yes these are my actual shoes that I wear every day. Second, I know that they look horrible, I was raised that you wear your shoes until you can't wait them any more. I think I've had these shoes about two years. Lastly, just look at the tips of those laces. We all know how almost impossible it is to get those tips through the eyelets. They end up frizzing up, like the ones above and ruins the shoe laces. Very aggravating.
Instead of buying new shoe laces all the time, get some Hickies. What are Hickies? Let me show you.
Hickies is life without laces. The Hickies lacing system gives everyone freedom from the constrictions of traditional shoe laces. You simply place one through the eyelet and thread it to the other side. Pull it tight, and snap them. Done. You can adjust them if you want them tight, loose, extra lose, in loops and mixed. I personally have mine mixed. I alternate a loose with a straight (as seen in picture below).
Starting from the bottom and going up I went from the bottom and then to the third eyelet and then the same way on the other side. Then I connected them together. Skipping one in the middle allowed me to take the second eyelet and go straight across. I didn't want them to be too tight or too loose.
I absolutely love Hickies. Parents with small kids who have a big issue, like me, keeping their shoe laces tied need to get Hickies. Hickies come in different colors and work on both adult shoes and kids shoes. You never have to worry about tying your shoes again.

text: Thursday, July 12, 2012 New NIH Program to Focus on Brain's Role in Pain The National Institutes of Health (NIH) recently launched a new multidisciplinary research program focusing on the role of the brain in perceiving, modifying, and managing pain. Based in NIH's National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, this collaborative effort will complement basic science and clinical research efforts of other ongoing intramural neuroscience, imaging, and mental and behavioral health research programs. NIH has appointed Catherine Bushnell, PhD, an internationally recognized pain and neuroscience researcher, scientific director of the program. Under Bushnell, the program will continue to work toward the development of better ways to safely and more effectively treat chronic pain, and advance research on the intersection and integration of pharmacological and nonpharmacological approaches. Research projects will include investigating the role of the brain in pain processing and control, and how factors such as emotion, attention, environment, and genetics affect pain perception. The program also will explore how chronic pain produces changes in the brain that can modify how the brain reacts to pain medications such as opioids.

This beautifully illustrated resource is designed to help speech and language therapists, education staff and the wider workforce to assess and develop the verbal reasoning skills of pupils aged 11 and over. The TALC 2 is based on the Language of Learning Model proposed by Blank, Rose and Berlin (1978). The Language of Learning Model is popular in Australia where it is referred to as 'Blanks' or 'The Blank Language Scheme.' This scheme is well received by teachers and teaching assistants working with children at Key Stages 2 & 3 as it helps them to differentiate class based activities for all children but especially those having difficulty understanding language and talking. The assessment will enable children to be appropriately assessed and supported at the right level for them. Anyone familiar with the principles of assessing children can use TALC 2. More information about 'Blank' is written in the resource and in all Elklan Language Builders books apart from 'Communication Support for Children with Severe and Complex Needs. TALC 2 can be used to: Assess the level of abstract language a young person can understand. Set individual, specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and timely (SMART) targets. Increase the awareness of the types of questions and directions the pupil might be expected to understand. Indicate how the language used to interact with the young person can be modified to ensure that the pupil understands the linguistic demands. Encourage the development of the young person's abstract reasoning skills within his level of ability. Develop the young person's confidence because the demands will be realistic. Measure change. There are three parts to the TALC 2 assessment: Part I involves a picture assessment. The topics for the six pictures have been carefully chosen to reflect the experiences of a wide and diverse population. A picture is shown or four pictures are given to put in the correct order. The assessor asks the questions listed on the score sheet and notes can be made about the responses. There are 60 questions. Part II of the TALC gives a list of the types of questions which can be adapted to suit all situations so that assessment can take place during natural communicative interactions. A simple record sheet is provided. Part III of the TALC provides examples of how to modify questions asked whilst teaching different curriculum subjects. Examples are given for English Literature, Maths, Science, Technology, Geography and History.
