America is the greatest democracy in the world . . . isn't it? Author Elizabeth Rusch examines some of the more problematic aspects of our government but, more importantly, offers ways for young people to fix them.

The political landscape has never been so tumultuous: issues with the electoral college, gerrymandering, voter suppression, and a lack of representation in the polls and in our leadership have led to Americans of all ages asking, How did we get here?

The power to change lies with the citizens of this great country--especially teens Rather than pointing fingers at people and political parties, You Call This Democracy? looks at flaws in the system--and offers a real way out of the mess we are in. Each chapter breaks down a different problem plaguing American democracy, exploring how it's undemocratic, offering possible solutions (with examples of real-life teens who have already started working toward them), and suggesting ways to effect change--starting NOW

A Favorite All-Time Classic
I've always enjoyed this classic film. Ava Gardner is my favorite all-time actress. She's great in the role of Kitty. Burt Lancaster is also fine as the torn man in love with a woman he struggles to have. This is based on one of Hemingway's short stories, and they did a fine job. Same with the remake in 1964 with Lee Marvin and Clu Gulagher. You will not be disappointed in either version, but my favorite is the orignal.

1 Ernest Hemingway story, 2 different movie takes, very cool.
I like value. Two movie versions of a cool story for the price of one, I am in. The Burt Lancaster version is film noir cool, while the Lee Marvin has that manic 60’s television feel. The Lee Marvin version gets bonus for Ronald Reagan’s portrayal of the heavy. He is quite menacing.

Overnight Magic in a Jar – Silky Hydration for Glass Skin
Color: Rice Probiotics (Barrier Jelly)
I’ve been using the Abib Rice Probiotics Overnight Mask Barrier Jelly for a couple of weeks now, and it has quickly earned a permanent spot in my skincare routine. It combines a clean, lightweight gel with deeply nourishing benefits—perfect if you're chasing that "glass skin" glow without heaviness. Right out of the jar, the texture feels like a cross between a jelly and a balm. It glides on cool and soothing, absorbs within a minute, and leaves a glossy, hydrated finish that still feels breathable. It’s not greasy at all—just a gentle shimmer of hydration that makes your skin feel pampered, not overloaded. Overnight, the formula truly does its work. In the mornings, I wake up to skin that looks softer, plumper, and noticeably clearer around the cheeks and chin. It helps lock in moisture so well that my skin stays balanced throughout the next day—no midday dryness or tightness, even when I use drying actives like retinol or vitamin C. What really stands out is how bright and even my complexion looks. Fine, subtle dryness around my nose and mouth has disappeared, and my pores appear less obvious. The lightweight probiotic-rich formula feels soothing without burdening sensitive or acne-prone skin. I also appreciate how well it layers in. I often apply it after serum or toner and then follow with SPF or a light moisturizer in the morning. My base products glide on beautifully over it—no pilling, no tacky residue, just glide and glow. If you have dry, combination, or sensitive skin and want a glow-inducing overnight booster that isn’t heavy or pore-clogging, this gel mask is a dream. It provides the deep moisture of a sleeping mask but feels light and refreshing. A little goes a long way, and I’m already halfway through the jar—I’ll definitely be buying more.
