The Snow Queen Written by Matt Opatrny Directed by Jessica Burr Presented by Blessed Unrest at New Ohio Theatre, NYC December 31, 2017-January 14, 2018
It seems fitting that The Snow Queen opened against the backdrop of New York's most frigid New Year's Eve in decades. Luckily, it deserves a very warm reception. Developed with the aid of a residency at the New Victory Theater and the advice of a class of fourth-graders, The Snow Queen entertainingly adapts Hans Christian Andersen's 19th-century tale, to which it adheres fairly closely in its major events while refocusing a few of its key elements, including the symbolic subtext of its central characters' journeys. The final product is a delightful balance of comedy, adventure, and just a tinge of melancholy.
The protagonists are two children, Gerda (Nancy McArthur) and Kay (Todd Grace), the depth of whose friendship is represented by the way that even their clothing and movements echo one another.

Apparently the teen idol has been talking some major smack about the Prince's hair. How rude! Get all the Omg-worthy details here! Justin Bieber, 18, may be pop royalty, but he's not, you know, actual royalty. So it comes as a total shock that he would think to diss Prince William, 30, and his thinning strands. Find out what Justin said! Justin was quoted as disrespecting Prince William's thinning hair, saying "I mean, there are things to prevent that nowadays, like Propecia. I don't know why he doesn't just get those things, those products. You just take Propecia and your hair grows back. Have you not got it over here?" Telling a royal to pop a pill to regrow his hair? Low blow, Biebs. Don't worry, Prince William: you've still got a better crown.

The gorgeous star debuted one of her most beautiful looks yet at the Total Recall New York City Premiere on August 2--If you love her hair & makeup, here's how you can copy the look! Jessica Biel got it right on the recent red carpet premiere. She offset her touchable, subtly wavy strands with a pretty glossy pink pout that gave her such a naturally radiant glow. Jessica has one plush pair of lips that looked extra luscious dressed in juicy gloss. To get your hair as soft and touchable, add a heat protecting spray before blow drying and use a round brush to style. To set a slight wave, when you curl a small section around the brush, using the cool setting, aim the dryer onto the curl to set. A gorgeous sheer glazed fuchsia shade like Jouer Moisturizing Lip Gloss in Malibu will give you a juicy pout like Jessica's.

The Seventeen cover girl tweeted out a pic of her Hello Kitty pedicure that she rocked for the mag's L.A. pool party. What do you think of her cartoon accented nail? Sound off below! Kylie Jenner, 14, showed off this customized kitty accent toenail- with its plush inspiration right nearby! If you love this pedi idea but aren't that daring, trying it on one toenail is a less intimating way to wear it rather than painting every digit. Girly girls everywhere, listen up: Spicing up the classic pink mani/pedi is always a challenge, but we love Kylie's fun inspiration! Somehow, though, this just wouldn't be as cute with Spongebob!

The actress looks better and better. Is looking good the best revenge?
So, we were just watching Denise Richards on Lx-tv and I have to say, the actress just looks prettier and prettier. Rich brown hair color, perfect skin, glamorous makeup. Kind of lovely considering her husband doesn’t exactly look so good right now. Kind of makes you wonder…was Denise preparing for her close-up?
I mean, you cannot deny the facts here, people: Charlie Sheen (Denise’s ex-husband with whom she has two children) is kind of the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to generating publicity. Denise, who’s promoting a new show, Blue Mountain State, just happened to be here in NYC on a press junket at the same time her ex-husband decided to implode. With an escort. In an adjacent hotel room. Coincidence?
Doesn’t really matter, does it? Denise is lookin’ mighty...

Thomson Reuters recently announced the launch of a news service boasting microsecond delivery of economic data to high frequency traders in London and Chicago. What's a few microseconds here or there, you ask? A lifetime to traders.
"Being first to act on this information can dramatically affect a firm's profit and loss," Rich Brown, global business manager of machine readable news at Thomson Reuters, said in a press release. And he's not kidding--the Wall Street Journal recently reported that a difference of just 300 microseconds (one microsecond is one-millionth of a second) could affect the impact of a trade, and even a single microsecond has a calculable cost. The new service, called NewsScope Direct, allows firms operating in the foreign exchange and futures markets to quickly respond to news before the information moves the market.
We've been hearing a lot about high-frequency trading lately, as it now accounts for 60% of total U.
