@anastasia beaverhousen: Yup, I can vouch for this too. Had terrible knee pain in college until I became active in a few sports after graduation. It made such a difference that even 10 years later I always make sure to keep at least my quads in shape.
Stanford rocks, go Cardinal! I hope they'll actually be able to raise awareness about this, though. Living in fear like that must be the worst kind of nightmare.
@KiddyKat: That sounds like a cool program, and I hope they get help getting organized and funded. How horrible to be afraid to go to school. I mean, it's school! WTF?

I just gave notice at the library that I won't be able to volunteer anymore. Started graduate school and too busy helping the husband with the restaurant. I was the youngest person there. Volunteering is mainly comprised of retirees, not unemployed people.
Babies B and C look *freakishly* like the babies in my extended family, including my own two.
Except (one presumes) for the baby about to be born to my non-white cousin and his non-white wife -- which leads to the question:
Only white babies are cute? I'm guessing that their skin color is "nude," too.
(I know, I know, it was a research thingie and no one's saying that non-white babies aren't cute, blah fucking blah. But when I thought about the babies in my family and was suddenly reminded of my cousin's baby-to-be, I struck by the absence of BOC. And I'll tell you what: That baby is going to be HELLA cute).
The cuteness is about proportion. C and A have very proportional faces. B and D both have more space (cheek) between their eyes and their jaws. B has beady eyes and D's face is more rectangular than the others.
@SarahMC: You're basically right- there was one "cute" girl and one "cute" boy and one "less-cute" of each gender...I was the one who sent in the tip for this story, so I feel all proud that they actually used it, even though it's all kinds of weird (which was the reason I sent it in in the first place).
I know that the story of the Miss World contestant is pretty sobering, but when looking at her photo from the accompanying article, all I could think about was how cool it was that she didn't shave her legs. I'm terrible like that, sometimes.

But um D is still definitely the cutest.
Apparently I'm not a real woman. But I reckon that everyone has their own ideas about what makes a cute face.
Fuck off, pseudo-science!

Also: All babies are beautiful.
