Tuesday, November 6, 2011 an A cappella group from Cal Berkeley University attended James Logan to perform during 4th and 5th period lunches in the little theater. The group, “Note Worthy Guys” consisted of 8 members. Before performing, Alexander Prucha a tenor, introduced the group and shared a bit of background. He explained how the various members had joined and how long they have been in the group. Their originality and style was clearly shown in their performance as they started off with an original song, sung to the tune of the “Family Guy” theme song.

With tiny waists, perfect bums, and endless legs, many would agree that model’s bodies often look too flawless to be real. But in the case of fashion retail store
H&M, it seems they actually aren't.
To complete the
H&M model, garments are cut and pasted onto the figures along with the heads of real women who they photographed to create some weird animated composite image. Then, adjustments are made to match skin tones for that wonderful lifelike feel.

From wikipedia:
Emmett Leo Kelly (December 9, 1898 – March 28, 1979), a native of Sedan, Kansas, was an American circus performer, who created the memorable clown figure "Weary Willie", based on the hobos of the Depression era.
Kelly began his career as a trapeze artist. By 1923, Emmett Kelly was working his trapeze act with John Robinson's circus when he met and married Eva Moore, another circus trapeze artist. They later performed together as the "Aerial Kellys" with Emmett still performing occasionally as a white face clown.
