Adult sufferers find acne is hard to face
Age lines and acne? This wasn't supposed to happen. Acne, normally the bane of teenagers, was flaring up on Kim Noble's 50-year-old face, causing the Atlanta businesswoman no small degree of frustration. "I started when I was a teenager with acne problems, and as I got older, it got worse," she says. "I was told it was due to stress and hormones. I've tried everything that was out there, from (rubbing) alcohol to injections to Accutane to Proactiv," says Noble, who has been seeing a dermatologist for years but still has flare-ups. She's not alone. Dr. Jodi Ganz, an Atlanta dermatologist, estimates half her patients are adults with mild to severe acne breakouts. "There are a ton of people with adult acne. For women, flare-ups usually occur the week before their periods; that's what we call hormonally linked acne.
New Year, New Cars, New Drivers And Junior Is Back!
Dale Earnhardt Jr. was the story of the second half of last year's season and most of the off season what with not winning a race since 2006, his public split with DEI, and subsequent signing with Hendrick Motorsports. Take that Teresa! Junior drove a great race and demonstrated again his prowess at the superspeedways like Daytona and Talladega. He ran up front most of the night, his team executed a flawless pit stop which brought him out in second in the 50 lap finale, and he ran clean and hard with teammates and competitors alike. It was amazing to see Junior, JJ, and Jeff Gordon freight training the high line and keeping Earnhardt at the front. The race had it's rough moments with a mini-big one in the 50 lap second segment which sidelined four cars (Truex, McMurray, Gilland, and Biffle).
Counting Bones With Nina Nastasia
The mirror behind the Mohawks inside stage produces an oddly unsettling effect. The frosted glass reflects another world, one paralleling its own wood and brick reality. The audience stares dumbed upon themselves, and the performer is left naked and open in the hindsight. Seated before the full room with only her acoustic guitar Wednesday night, it seemed an appropriate environment for Nina Nastasia. The New Yorkers songs have always exposed an unnerving intimacy, her powerful voice confidently pitching high and whispering soft in a confessional paradoxically strengthened in her own insecurities. Yet there was also an easy reciprocation from the crowd, who seemed largely her friends, in the discarding of hard stances, the following of her intimations through the looking glass.
