Following nearly two years of global touring in support of their adventurous and acclaimed album, The Wilderness (2016), Explosions in the Sky paused on the future to reflect on the past. Celebrating their 20th year as a band with a pair of remastered reissues of early beloved classics - How Strange, Innocence (2000) and The Rescue (2005) - they embarked on a memorable series of anniversary concerts in 2019. It was around then that Explosions in the Sky was approached to craft the score to a new documentary about a place with which, as native Texans, they were very familiar: Big Bend National Park.
That documentary, Big Bend: The Wild Frontier of Texas, premiered on PBS in the United States as well as on a variety of networks in other countries in early 2021. The hour-long film intimately follows the lives of native animals amid expansive aerial views of the iconic desert landscape that makes up one of the grandest natural wonders in the world. The band set these sights to an inspired, melodic, and meaningful blend of acoustic guitar, slide guitar, strings, piano, bells, and drums that feels as alive and diverse-and vast and lonely-as the place it depicts. Big Bend (An Original Soundtrack for Public Television) takes that mesmerizing score and recontextualizes it as a standalone album. Those brief cues have been expanded and transformed into a thoughtful, gorgeous full-length album that recalls some of the band's most magical and memorable moments from their storied history. Big Bend: The Wild Frontier of Texas is a film that explores the past and present of the vast, complicated landscape that still holds countless mysteries yet to be uncovered. In Big Bend (An Original Soundtrack for Public Television), Explosions in the Sky pursue a similar approach to their own past and present, and find inspiration in all that has yet to be discovered.

Water : Cleaning with water is the best way to wipe off the dirt and oil. This way, you will get rid of the dirt and maintain the skin's moisture as well. The cleaners available in the market can be used as well, but they should be used twice a day- at the most.
Honey & Almonds : This is yet another great remedy for an oil free nose. Take couple of tablespoons of honey. Add ground almonds to make a face scrub and use it frequently on the nose.
Cleanliness : Most of the sebaceous glands of the skin are in the T Zone of the face. This zone comprises of forehead, the nose, chin as well as the area that circles the mouth. The easiest way to keep the nose oil free is to make sure the skin pores are clean. These pores are responsible for the accumulation of excess dirt and grease on the nose.
Vinegar : Dilute the vinegar with some water. Then soak a piece of cotton in it. Rub it on the nose and leave the solution on for about 15 minutes. Use cold water to wash off. This remedy wipes off oil and also protects the skin from penetration by grime and dirt. Besides, it is a good solution for acne and blackheads too.
Face Scrub : Buy a good quality face scrub. Rub it gently on to the skin, especially on the nose and then wash off with water. Use it 2 or 3 times a week for best results. Another advantage is freedom from blackheads.
Lemon : Lemon is a blessing for the skin. Add some lime juice to a piece of cotton. Clean your nose with it twice or thrice every day.

I'm still doing my best to figure out this new century of ours. Someone recently donated the entire run of the Raymond Burr Perry Mason TV series, and I showed this to a passerby. This passerby is a big fan of old black and white series, especially when, as with Perry Mason, the Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock, and so on, you saw new characters in different stories in each episode, and you can spot a young Charles Bronson, say, in an early role. I was kind of hoping I'd get an offer for the whole bagful of DVDs.
"What about if you want to watch a particular episode and can't wait for it to come on?" I asked, in my very best "You really want to spend money today" voice.
It's true, of course. You can go online and look up the episode you want or even just the scenes you liked best. If all you need of Gone With the Wind is the last three minutes of dialogue, you just press some keys and call it up. The NEXT generation may not get it, not having sat through the whole movie to get there, but you've SEEN it already, and your mind can put that scene into context. You no longer NEED to see the whole thing.
And people used to wonder whether music videos were ruining the attention span of the MTV generation.
And, complain and sneer as I like, I cannot deny that this has made things easier for the lady with the W volume of the encyclopedia. Someone out there probably IS selling the volumes individually. Encyclopedias, long considered a drag on the market, are starting to come into their own. They're designed to look nice on the shelf, so they are heaven sent for people who want a handsome wall of books as background in one of their rooms. And if your name starts with W, why NOT buy all 1954 World Book W volumes to run along the top shelf? You're never actually going to read what's on the shelves, so it doesn't matter what's behind those handsome volumes. You can spell out 'WELCOME TO MY LIBRARY" in shiny gold letters on dark not-quite-leather spines. Dealers with storerooms packed with old encyclopedias would be glad to help you out.


I feel like Best Moderator/Host wouldn't work so well because most people don't see what's going on behind the scenes. The mod doing all the posting isn't usually doing all the work.
Best Spec I'd 100% be behind though.
nah these are enough categories, given the number of mafia categories and how much bigger mafia games are.
He is always a beast in games, both big and small. He has won two LSG games this year and has one of the highest ELO currently.
Yeah I'll Second that. He's always a really good dude, and really only adds positivity into the things he's involved in.
Nominate Mish Mash game Big Brother Bots 2.0 by Xalxe.
While this is a reboot of a Blackberry original, Bots games are not easy to run at all. Perusing algorithms and programs for all possible loopholes is not an easy task. Xalxe took on the challenge, but also added his own flair to the game to make it feel like watching real episodes. Well done.
Nominate Mish Mash game Dead Last by Xalxe.
Great adaptation of a card game. Xalxe kept the game rolling and the cast played to win. Adapting to a forum and thinking about communication rules was important here, and I think Xalxe did that justice.
Xalxe has been a consistent presence in Mish Mash and LSG, but having games finish in General Mish Mash is not an easy feat at all. And Xalxe is bringing it there with 3 completed this year. Furthermore, Xalxe was a pleasure to mod in The Void and every other game I've hosted him in.
Imo in pretty much every game meme has played in this year he's managed to leave a positive impact and be a fan favorite (or at the very least entertaining for specs to watch), he also did a majority of the work getting Reverse the Curse to run (and anyone who's modded a game knows how rough that can be) and has just been a fun general presence to have in the Mish Mash discord day to day. He definitely deserves a nom.
He's been a great addition to Large Social games, and I agree with what Vash said.
Oh, also second Xalxe. He's always been a delight, and brings so many games to Mish Mash regularly. And Mish Mash and Large Social Games have always been improved by him being a part of them.
Just heard about this. I'm honoured to be mentioned, and that made my day. Thanks Mallow, Xof, and Vash <3. I think the reward should go to someone more active in actually running mish mash games like Mallow or Xalxe because I don't do that, but the nomination itself is enough to make me happy.
Adapting The Genius to a forum setting is a task that seems fairly difficult to do, but the mods of The Genius did a spectacular job of it.
First off I will mention that the mods chose to disable PMs for the game, and instead allowing players to communicate through forums in a way similar to One World. Player could move around every 4-6 hours to a different room, giving them new opportunities to talk to other players. This mechanic probably wasn't strictly necessary to run a Genius game, but it made the game so much better. It added a new element to the game of having to coordinate movements with other players. It gave a great cast of players new ways to interact and form alliances. And it made the game feel more real, and made the scheming feel more intense. This couldn't have been an easy thing to keep up and the mods did a fantastic job of it so I give a lot of credit to them for this.
The main matches of the show make up the bulk of the Genius show, so having incredible matches for a game adaption was very important. And I think the mods did equally well here. Some of these were adapted from the show, some from board games, and some were original concepts. The lineup of main matches for this game was pretty impressive though, and the vast majority of the 11 games were executed well. Even though it lasted way too long, I have to give special credit to the game "Prison Break" which was a very interesting and well-designed game that fit in with the Genius concept really well. The duels for the game were also pretty good, and I think a lot of them were better than the duels used on the show.
I've played a lot of games on forums over the years, and I think that this was the most impressive one that I've played. It was inspirational, memorable, and absolutely fantastic, and for that reason I believe it should be a contender for this award.
It was a smaller game and there weren't many spectators so I feel like most people aren't aware of just how much effort and time the mods put into this game. It was a very well designed game, and the main matches themselves even often had interesting loopholes built in to abuse like the actual genius. For around 6 months the mods would check every 4 hours to do room switches basically? That's commitment.
So humble nominating Meme (Who I agree should be nominated) . Vash deserves to be in the running too. He's played a whole assortment of games this year adding a lot to them, and he's usually a huge threat in them. He's someone I can leave this nomination short because I know most people are already aware of why he deserves a nom.
vash also plays a lot of things in general mish mash which is important yo.
Nth Vash, he's awesome and also participates in a lot of mish mash things.

The Met Opera livestreams an all-star At-Home Gala
The Metropolitan Opera announced plans to livestream an At-Home Gala on Saturday, April 25, at 1 pm EDT, featuring performances by many of the company's most prominent artists, live from their own quarantines around the world. Hosted by General Manager Peter Gelb in New York City and Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin in Montreal, the program will be streamed for free on the Met's website.
"While the Met is famous for its high-definition transmissions into cinemas, this will be a great artistic but low-tech operation," said Mr. Gelb, noting that the performances will be relayed in real-time from the singers' laptops and transmitted via Skype in what will nonetheless be a complicated exercise in logistics and time zones. "We will be providing operatic uplift to our audiences, as well as for our singers, who are eager to connect with their fans."
While Mr. Gelb will be producing the event from his apartment on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, Mr. Nézet-Séguin will be co-hosting from his residence in Montreal. Mr. Nézet-Séguin will also be participating in the gala as a pianist.
The gala will start at 1 pm EDT, the regularly scheduled time for the Met's Saturday matinee performances, and will be available via the Met's website at metopera.org. After the live showing, the program will continue to be available on-demand on the Met website until 6:30 pm EDT the following day. The complete program will be announced shortly.
Some of the artists participating in this gala are Diana Damrau, Isabel Leonard, René Pape, Ailyn Pérez, Matthew Polenzani, Elza van de Heever, Pretty Yende, Renée Fleming, Elīna Garanča, Erin Morley and Anita Rachvelishvili.

What's The Difference Between An FBI-Executed Search Warrant And A Raid?
crbellette/Shutterstock
By C. Morris/Aug. 10, 2022 3:21 pm EST
On August 8, 2022, the FBI searched former President Donald Trump's residence at Mar-a-Lago, reports PBS. According to Newsweek, agents removed several boxes from Trump's residence. This move is a part of a more extensive investigation into Trump and the possible mishandling of classified information. Soon after, accusations called the search a politicized and partisan attack on the former president. The truth is that federal search warrants require a labor-intensive process. Obtaining a search warrant involves a checklist of requirements agencies must meet before a judge approves the request, says Associated Press, via U.S. News and World Report.
Furthermore, since the Mar-a-Lago search involved a former president, top officials in the Justice Department most likely had to sign off on the request. "This couldn't have been just a knee jerk 'let's go serve a warrant' situation," said former FBI agent Dennis LormeI. "I would want to make sure that I have an as airtight or as bulletproof of an affidavit as I could have" (via Associated Press). In other words, search warrants — particularly high-profile ones — are difficult to obtain and require specific evidence before being granted.
Search warrants are typically a last resort after all other means of accessing important information are exhausted. The Justice Manual states that agencies use search warrants when "it appears that the use of a subpoena, summons, request, or other less intrusive alternative means of obtaining the materials would substantially jeopardize the availability or usefulness of the materials sought" (per The New York Times).
How do federal search warrants work?
According to The New York Times, a search warrant doesn't signal that a person is guilty. Instead, search warrants are used to obtain critical evidence and information possibly located on a person's property, including from electronic devices. Warrants are used in time-sensitive situations when federal agents need to act quickly. For example, agencies may be concerned about information, documents, or materials getting moved, hidden, or destroyed.
In the case of Donald Trump, federal agencies may have reason to worry about evidence destruction. New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman released photos allegedly showing evidence of Trump's attempts to flush notes and other papers down toilets during his tenure in the White House (via Yahoo! News). A person with a history of disposing of important information would give federal agents the urgency that a search warrant requires.
To receive a search warrant, federal agencies need to present their evidence and make their case to the magistrate or judge, demonstrating the need for the warrant, explains Associated Press. Those requesting the warrant need to prove "probable cause," which means they need to prove there's enough evidence of illegal activities to justify the search, says The New York Times. Regarding the search of Mar-a-Lago, journalist and historian Garrett M. Graff, author of "Watergate, A New History," told Newsweek that it is "hard to even imagine how high the bar of probable cause must've been for the Bureau to initiate such a politically sensitive search."
How are raids different?
Agencies also need to provide "particularity" in their request. This requirement means agencies must set parameters for their search to avoid abuses, writes The New York Times. Particularity, ideally, ensures that the search works within the narrow bounds of the case and does not impinge on the person's life or property outside of the criminal investigation. The application process for a search warrant is secret, so the person in question doesn't hide or conceal evidence.
Getting a search warrant is even more labor-intensive when investigating a president, explains PBS. In 2020, Trump's attorney general Bill Barr added that federal agencies must get permission from the attorney general to receive a search warrant for a presidential candidate. This new law means that current attorney general, Merrick Garland, must have also signed off on searching Trump's residence.
A federal raid differs from a search. The Center for Criminal Justice's Task Force on Policing writes that raids involve forced entry. Typically, raids use SWAT teams, are focused on the element of surprise, and are performed late at night or early in the morning. These searches usually require extreme conditions and fears that the parties in question may damage evidence or harm officers. Under this definition, the investigation at Mar-a-Lago was a search rather than a raid.


There are multiple different types of imaging available, each has it's own use. As far as possible imaging will be bulk-billed however sometimes there are additional costs which will be discussed in advance.
Xray; primarily used to view bone structure.
Ultrasound; gives excellent images of tendons and ligaments as well as for dynamic assessment such as shoulder impingement. Used to guide injections.
CT; reveals 3-dimensional architecture of bone. Used to guide injections.
MRI; demonstrates soft tissue architecture over a large area such as a knee.
Fluoroscopy; xrays in real time to guide injections.
Bone scan; demonstrates areas of increased cellular activity.

The 1st Company of Artillery Volunteers in Caithness was raised in Wick early in 1859, and it was quickly followed by the 2nd Company in Thurso. In Wick, the Artillery Company had a battery at the North Head and practised by firing their cannon at targets moored in the bay.
Although never called into active service the volunteers provided trained recruits for the regular army and moulded the characters of many young men. It was also a focus for much of the social activity in the county and participated in various fund raising activities. They often went on parade for visiting dignitaries and twenty one gun salutes were fired from the large guns to mark certain events. The band frequently played at balls and other social events.

It's On Us Calls on College Students to Re-examine How They Talk About Sexual Assault in Bold New Ad
Autocorrecting the language that perpetuates rape culture
By Katie Richards
It's On Us uses a text conversation to tackle rape culture in latest ad.
YouTube: It's On Us
A powerful new campaign from It's On Us—a movement originally launched by the White House under Barack Obama and Joe Biden in September 2014—rolled out today. For those familiar with the campaign's work, the new spot marks a bold shift from past ads.
"This is one of our most provocative ads, and we really love it," Rebecca Kaplan, director of It's On Us, Civic Nation, told Adweek. "It's talking about language for the first time and how language really matters. What you say is often indicative of what you do, so this is focusing on language as a means of action."
The new work—helmed by creative agency Mekanism with production by Sister, and animation and effects by The Artery—takes a different approach than the customary call to action from celebrities such as Olivia Munn and Jon Hamm.
"This is one of our most provocative ads, and we really love it."
Rebecca Kaplan, director, It's On Us
The new work isn't graphic, but still packs a punch in the most subtle way.
"Autocorrect" is told entirely through a texting conversation between two presumably college-age men. It uses the autocorrect feature on smartphones to highlight the difference between what we say and what we mean when we talk about rape. In this case, one is a perpetrator and one is a bystander who fails to intervene, and they talk about the incident later via text.
The campaign urges college students to change the way they discuss rape and recognize what is, and what is not, consent. Again, while the images are not graphic, the messages below may be triggering.
While early efforts of It's On Us focused on building awareness for the movement through celebrity endorsements and encouraging American students to sign the It's On Us pledge, this work pushes into a new territory. It's calling on students to take action by organizing events at their universities including bystander intervention training, panel discussions and small-group talks about consent.
"This new round is really all about making it super personal to the audience. I think because of where we are in the lifespan of the campaign, we are able to be a little more provocative with this direction and make it a little more personal to the audience because we have this broad awareness," Jason Harris, president and CEO of Mekansim, said.
While the campaign was launched through the White House, it's not associated with the current administration. It's a partner of the Biden Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to public service. Biden shared the video on Twitter today.
The correct word for sex without consent is rape. Period. #ItsOnUs to know the signs and to stop it. https://t.co/yGBRIKiHod
— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) March 28, 2017
In its first two years, It's On Us found great success, tallying over 400,000 online pledges and upwards of 2,000 events held by students on college campuses across the country. Throughout the first week of April, which is also the first week of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, It's On Us will hold 300 events across the country.

Following on from its participation in the ground-breaking global supply chain survey which was launched this year by MIT (the Massachusetts Institute for Technology), and is being sponsored in South Africa by Imperial Logistics, SAPICS added impetus to its research contribution by introducing a research panel discussion at the recent SAPICS Conference. This generated some important findings, notes SAPICS director Cobus Rossouw. He elaborates: "At this very successful panel discussion and reflection at the SAPICS Conference, three research priorities were identified in our profession. These are logistics infrastructure, supply chain integration and operational capabilities."
Cobus says the panel concluded that the key objective of research into logistics infrastructure would be understanding the challenges and development requirements associated with this area, in order to increase the competitive advantage of the SA industry and economy. Projects like the "State of Logistics" (which is sponsored by Imperial Logistics), CSIR initiatives and university initiatives were cited by the panel as contributing to research in this area, but it remains a priority. Comments Imperial Logistics marketing director Abrie de Swardt: "Business, as a whole, must consistently invest in and support research, both financially and through contributing practical knowledge, information and key learnings. At Imperial Logistics, we focus significantly on collaborating with business, industry bodies, government, as well as research and academic institutions. Initiatives such as the current MIT Risk Survey and annual State of Logistics™ Survey further logistics and supply chain best practice and importantly, enable us to collectively identify and find solutions to industry challenges that cannot be solved by just one company."
The second key research area defined by the panel is supply chain integration, and Cobus explains that the objective of this research would be to share innovative management approaches towards leveraging supply chain integration as a strategic enabler of the competitive advantage of companies. Initiatives like Barloworld's "supplychainforesight" are already committed to this objective, the panel noted.
The issue of operational capabilities is the third research priority that has been identified, and Cobus says that the aim of research in this area would be to define the requirements for skills development to support the internal capabilities required for organizations and industries to address operational management. SAPICS education is playing a crucial role, the panel concluded, along with University initiatives and company projects, but research into operational capabilities remains a priority in the Africa supply chain profession.
SAPICS's participation in the MIT Centre for Logistics and Transportation's global Supply Chain Risk Management Survey represented a milestone in the association's research function. "It's just the start," Cobus stresses, "of an ongoing initiative that will see SAPICS facilitating interaction between academia and industry to align efforts in the profession, and providing a platform for discussion.
"Global research like the MIT survey is extremely significant for SAPICS and for the local supply chain community," he adds. "It presents an invaluable opportunity to learn from the rest of the world, and for them to learn from South Africa. A global survey like this - particularly one run by a renowned and credible institution like MIT - really enables us to give something meaningful back to the profession. It's a chance for our opinions to be expressed; for our voices to be heard on a global level." Feedback from the survey has identified the most important local risks as those related to raw material and transport carrier failures, which is similar to international findings. Highly rated internal risks related to protracted labour disputes and electricity supply disruptions are more unique to the local environment. The lack of alignment between companies and their suppliers on urgency to address risk related issues has also been identified as an issue that needs attention. Further phases of the research will focus on understanding the differences between local and international risk perceptions and management approaches, Cobus explains. The project will continue to be sponsored by IMPERIAL Logistics.
In addition to the research panel discussion, the SAPICS Conference also provided a platform for the sponsors of major local research initiatives - like Barloworld supplychainforesight and the State of Logistics, conducted by the CSIR - to present their findings. Two major international research projects were used as the basis of presentations by Alan Waller ("Supply Chain Strategy in the Boardroom - The Reality") and Karl Manrodt ("Vested Outsourcing: Five rules that will transform outsourcing"). The latter received the best presentation award and the former presentation was also highly rated. by attendees. A follow up workshop by Alan Waller is being planned in South Africa in early 2011.

Q: How to get a fixed amount of results per row? How can I build a query with this format with a sqlite3 database?
CREATE TABLE sample (integer foo);
INSERT INTO sample VALUES (1);
...
INSERT INTO sample VALUES (10);

Format of the result
1,2,3
4,5,6
7,8,9
10

A: You'll have to add some criteria to group them:
CREATE TABLE sample (integer foo, char(1) bar);
INSERT INTO sample VALUES
(1, 'a'), (2, 'a'), (3, 'a'), (4, 'b'), (5, 'b'), (6, 'b'), (7, 'c') ...;

SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(foo ORDER BY foo, ',')
FROM sample
GROUP BY bar

Edit:
Try this:
select group_concat(foo) from (
  select s1.foo, (count(*) - 1) / 3 grp from sample s1
  join sample s2 on s1.rowid >= s2.rowid
  group by s1.rowid
) final
group by grp

A: This might not be the best solution (and has some edge cases---if you have a 3 value that is not null), and can probably be put into one query, but I needed the RowId to join on. It should do the trick, though:
CREATE TEMP TABLE split1 (foo1 int);
CREATE TEMP TABLE split2 (foo2 int);
CREATE TEMP TABLE split3 (foo3 int);

INSERT INTO split1
SELECT foo FROM sample WHERE foo % 3 = 1 ORDER BY foo

INSERT INTO split2
SELECT foo FROM sample WHERE foo % 3 = 2 ORDER BY foo

INSERT INTO split3
SELECT foo FROM sample WHERE foo % 3 = 0 ORDER BY foo

SELECT
    CASE
        WHEN foo2 IS NULL THEN foo1
        WHEN foo3 IS NULL THEN foo1||','||foo2
        ELSE foo1||','||foo2||','||foo3
    END
FROM split1
    LEFT JOIN split2
        ON split1.RowId = split2.RowId
    LEFT JOIN split3
        ON split2.RowId = split3.RowId

On the Trail of Justin Timberlake
By Ashley Fantz
MAY 8, 2000: Deep in the belly of suburbia, a frosty-haired boy named Justin Randall Timberlake grew.
Among the hushed cul-de-sacs with names like Polo Run and Autumn Winds, he grew. He breathed air so clean that when it whipped dandelion plumes toward the sky, they mingled with clouds. He rode his bike on trimmed lawns, over medians marked with cherry trees planted exactly 5.8 feet apart. Behind a white picket fence, a 15 mph speed limit, and strip mall signs ORTHODONTIST, OLD NAVY, CHILI's, he grew believing in a Baptist God and saluting the flag.
It was the Eighties. People wore something called Ocean Pacific and acid-washed denim, an ex-movie-star was president, and the life of that boy held awesome promise.
Now Justin Timberlake -- this kid, this man-child of 19, in the year of a new millennium, popping like a pink, gooey ooze of Bubbalicious on the Top 40 charts with four other like-minded burb-bred dudes in a band named N'SYNC -- is a superstar. A playa, a honey, a sought-after trophy of post-pubescence, he has earned his nicknames Mr. Smooth and the Baby. Eighty-five fan Web sites do not lie.
But who is Justin Timberlake? Does anyone know what tears up his heart, what keeps him awake at night, what ponderings of life color his daydreams?
Who is this enigmatic figure in cargo pants?
The Flyer went straight to the source, his publicist's publicist Bennie at Jive Records.
"Would it be possible to get an interview with Mr. Timberlake?" we asked.
"Um, no, that isn't going to be possible, Justin doesn't want to do any press. He and the rest of N'SYNC had a conference last night and they are exhausted, so no, no that can't happen, but I really appreciate you calling, thanks, take care, okay, bye, best to you."
Bennie does not pause when he talks. He is a busy guy. Maybe he needs a publicist, too.
Publicist #1 would not return phone calls.
Justin Timberlake comes screaming into this world with a full head of curly hair at 6:30 a.m. on January 31, 1981. His parents Lynn and Randy provide a loving home in Millington, Tennessee, a sweet, quiet Navy town outside of the gritty "urban" frights of Memphis. He attends E.E. Jeter Elementary. As early as second grade he begins to appear, as his teachers say, "special."
"Justin was not selfish or spoiled," says former principal Mary Ann McNeil. "That kid had talent in every fiber of his being."
Timberlake attended Jeter until the seventh grade and was homeschooled thenceforth. McNeil is now the principal at Collierville's Crosswind Elementary, a pristine learning hub with shiny floors and teachers clad in colorful jumpers.
McNeil tells a story about a Jeter picnic that ended with Timberlake on a flatbed truck, straining his tiny vocal chords, busting a move.
Whenever she hears her famous student is making a television appearance, she calls other Jeter teachers who were present during those formative years.
"All the students loved to watch him dance," she says, looking away in amusement and thoughtful wonder. "I listened to the new CD and saw him, you know, doing that dance move he does -- "
McNeil sticks her elbow out, scoots her right foot quickly across the office's matted blue carpet, as if she's repeatedly stubbing her toe.
"I just love that move," she says.
Timberlake's ex-basketball coach, Kim Lampkins, remembers that Timberlake had a mystical, Midas aura.
"He was good at everything he tried, everything he touched," she says."If he said to the other kids, 'Get in line,' they would all just get right on up and get in line."
Foreshadowing his later success, Lampkins recalls that Timberlake and four ofhis grade-school buddies -- one of whom is mentioned in N'SYNC's latest CD jacket -- used to dress up like the popular boy band New Kids on the Block.
"The parents would rent a limo to take them to birthday parties around town to perform," Lampkins says, smiling and nodding her head. "The other kids pantomimed, but Justin did do a little singing."
Little Justin Timberlake's first photo shoots -- the red-and-white Jeter yearbooks.
1989-1990, second grade. Hair: Flock of Seagulls. Teeth: one space. Eyes: Twinkling.
Combing the pages for his face is futile. Penpal Club? No. Band? Nope. Stockholders Club? Not there either. A kid with large Harry Potter glasses named Shane Love, who holds the crown as Mr. Jeter, dominates most pages.
"Personal Notes" provides the only clue:
"Congratulations to Justin Timberlake for another great year! We're so proud of you! We love you! Mom & Dad."
1990-1991, third grade. Hair: Flock of Seagulls with gel. Teeth: not very visible. Eyes: Twinkling.
The following summer is a season of change. Timberlake makes the cut to sing on Star Search. He winces under the bright lights and sings in a tender falsetto. But the hoopla fades when he loses by just half a star to another child-performer whose rendition of "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" captures the audience's heart. Ed McMahon's hug does not soften the crushing blow.
A hard decision is on the horizon.
Contemplating whether to return to Millington, Timberlake and his parents get on that long highway out of Mid-South suburbia and into a creamy, unexplored oblivion known as Orlando, Florida.
They headed for the Mickey Mouse Club, an incubator of teen stardom that still draws drama mamas to its promising light of television contracts and commercial gigs.
Timberlake makes friends at the Mickey Mouse Club with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, today's fresh-faced embodiments of sex and All-American saccharine.
But the Mickey Mousing around comes to an end when the season wraps. Timberlake, yearning for a normal life, aching for one day without foundation, returns to Millington. He plays basketball. He excels at everything.
1992-1993, sixth grade, Jeter Elementary. Hair: Flock of Seagulls tapered and expertly gelled. Teeth: straight. Eyes: Twinkling.
"Personal Notes": "Justin Timberlake -- Our Superstar! Always aim high and go for what you want! We're proud of you! We love you! Mom & Dad."
Later Timberlake talks about those trying, ping-pong days of celebrity and normalcy.
"I was a little punkass," he says about the Mickey Mouse Club experience. "But I really started to find myself there. It was a good experience. After that, I went back to school for a year and got into trouble -- mailbox bashing and just being a delinquent. I'm just glad I didn't go to a regular high school. I would have gotten arrested by now."
Tennessee and Florida criminal records do not have a file for Justin Randall Timberlake.
Like many regular people, Timberlake has fears, desires, secrets, and likes Cap'n Crunch cereal. Fan-compiled lists of the musician's "favorites" are miraculous insights into this mysterious entertainer. These items are usually cushioned with quotes that suggest the pop prince does indeed feel deeply.
"I'm really frightened of sharks, and spiders and snakes," Timberlake opens up to Teen Voices magazine. "They gross me out. I think it's the three S's: snakes, spiders, and sharks and I'm afraid of dying unloved."
N'SYNC fan Web site operator, Sara from Illinois, believes Timberlake is the "ideal guy" because he is "talented and extremely good-looking." She has seen the group perform five times and is sure that Timberlake's turn-ons are Runts and Spree candies, his teddy bear Coko, and baggy designer clothes. His turn-offs include smoking, hotels that don't have enough gym equipment, and people who do bad things. Sara offers to dispel some rumors about Timberlake.
"Justin isn't dating Christina Aguilera or Bioncee of Destiny's Child," she asserts. "Justin didn't swear at a bunch of fans at an autograph signing."
However, Laura, from Peekskill, New York, whose JUSTIN 4EVER Web site has won awards for its balanced coverage of what's known to insiders as the "Justin/Britney Thing," calls Britney naysayers "naive freaks."
"Of course they are dating, they may even be doing it," Laura says. "I mean, they go shopping together. I've seen the photos!"
Bennie, publicist #2, left this message regarding Ms. Spears:
"Um, no, that isn't true. Justin doesn't want to do any press. He and the rest of N'SYNC had a conference last night and they are exhausted, so no, no, I can't talk about Britney, but I really appreciate you calling, thanks, take care, okay, bye, best to you."
Back in Millington, the Flyer continues to search for answers to the dilemma, Who is Justin Timberlake?
May Black, a soft-spoken dining room supervisor at Big Dave's Steak & Rib Shack, is befuddled when asked about the town's famous alum.
"I don't know who that is, but I don't work at night," Black says. "Does he sing here?"
Rumor has it that Timberlake's name has been brought up more than once by patrons dining at Cactus Joe's Bar & Grill. Bartender Margaret Tidwell says she "likes N'SYNC, but can't explain why just likes 'em."
Proving that the band appeals to all ages, Tidwell's 29-year-old son has taken a shine to N'SYNC's latest single, "Bye, Bye, Bye." And that is something, Tidwell says, "because he don't like much of anything."
An obviously private person when he's not onstage dodging pyrotechnics and dancing in matching outfits with his bandmates, Timberlake says that fans may have to wait for a VH1 Behind the Music special to understand this man, this myth. Fame clearly torments him subtly, gently -- as this statement uttered to MTV some time back -- reveals.
"Fame is really funny," he begins. "We were on the Regis and Kathie Lee show and some girl in the audience yelled out, 'Justin, sit on my lap!' Excuuuuse me! But I don't know you!"
