It’s the end of a long day, but dancers at the Dance Because You Care workshop are still having fun. Camaria has been dancing since age four. Now thirteen, she is using her love for dance to help others in her community. Camaria organized a day of dance workshop to raise money for the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. Camaria did all the planning herself. First, she needed a location and found a church hall for the event. Next, she recruited (招募) dance teachers. “It’s hard when you’re a kid. Some teachers were a little hesitant.” But Camaria stuck with it and soon she had lined up four teachers. Her parents took great pride in her success. Camaria wrote letters to local companies asking for sponsors to cover the event’s expenses. At first, talking on the phone and in person was hard for her. With practice, she became more comfortable. “I learned that the more confidence you have, the more effective you’ll be,” she says. To find dancers, she designed a sign-up sheet and passed it out at local dance studios and schools. When only a few dancers signed up the first week, she felt nervous. But soon registrations (登记) rolled in. Camaria handled everything from T-shirt sizes to lunch orders. “It was hard to get the little details right,” she says. On the morning of workshop, she stood at the registration table, signing in dancers and passing out T-shirts. “It was great to see the kids coming in. It just makes you so excited.” Throughout the day, dancers worked their way through five classes: tap, jazz, musical theatre, and

There are records of fingerprints being taken many centuries ago. The ancient Babylonians pressed the tips of their fingertips into clay to record business trade. The Chinese used ink-on-paper finger impressions for business. However, fingerprints weren't used as a method for identifying criminals until the 19th century.
In 1858, Sir William Herschel was working as an offical of the Hooghly district in Jungipoor, India. In order to reduce fraud (欺诈), he had people living in the district record their fingerprints when signing business documents.
A few years later, Scottish doctor Henry Faulds was working in Japan when he discovered fingerprints left by artists on ancient pieces of clay. This finding inspired him to begin investigating fingerprints. In 1880, Faulds wrote to his cousin, the famous naturalist Charles Darwin, and asked for help with developing a fingerprint classification system. Darwin refused, but sent the letter to his cousin, Sir Francis Galton, who was a eugenicist (优生学家). Galton began collecting fingerprints and eventually gathered some 8,000 different samples to analyze. In 1892, he published a book called \in which he outlined a fingerprint classification system --- the first in existence.
