It's easy to make a child smile. A few words of encouragement, maybe a special reward for a special performance. Parents do it all the time, and so do teachers.

Good teachers are the difference between a child who succeeds and one who stumbles. They are the ones who make math fun and science seem like an adventure into another world.

Teaching is the profession that allows you to see the most gratifying, immediate and instantaneous reward of a job well done - a child's smile.

Make a child smile. Take the next step - teach!

This year was a pretty interesting one for Scene. After three designers, three assistants, numerous writers and countless stolen items, I think, in the end, we turned out pretty much Ok. Interviewing bands, hip-hop groups, walking in front of The Wallflowers, getting VIP passes to after parties, record release events and fashion shows and getting smashed into speakers at punk shows -- we definitely got the best of the entertainment world this year. In this issue, the first few pages are dedicated to looking back at the pages of Scene and all the excitement that we covered. Whether it was those concerts we rocked out to, all those films we cried with, laughed at or walked out on, or those albums we ended up selling back to Amoeba-- we hope you'll remember this year for bringing you a diverse mix of the latest in entertainment. Thanks to all for picking us up.
