Trainer Mick Price is confident that dual Group One winner Samaready (More Than Ready) can bounce back on Friday night in the weight-for-age William Reid Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) at Moonee Valley. Samaready was a dominant winner of the Moir Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) at Moonee Valley last spring.

Craig Newitt ensured a spot in the good books of both Mick Price and Coolmore Stud when he partnered Jazz Song to an upset win in the Simpson Construction Typhoon Tracy Stakes at Moonee Valley.
Peter Moody could be easily forgiven for placing extra significance on Friday night's $120,000 Typhoon Tracy Stakes (1200m) at Moonee Valley.
While a trio of Group 1 races will guarantee Saturday's Caulfield meeting takes top billing around Australia this weekend, some quality nominations will ensure Friday night's Moonee Valley program is one for punters to follow.

Search the WUOL Playlist

I can't find a "now playing" playlist on the WUOL website. Seems all to be archives, yesterday and older. Can you tell me how to find the currently playing item on the site?
On 07/18/13 4:49 PM, Daniel Gilliam said:
TJ, the current song will normally show up in the blue bar between the hours of 9am and 5pm (weekdays). For other times of day go here: http://classical24.publicradio.org/listings/now_playing.php?display=true&source=C24
I know it seems weird, but we're working to get all the Now Playing in one place. More complicated than it seems (or should be).
Thanks for your patience.

Please advise how to access Playlist. I enter 7/22/2013 7:20AM and then I click GO. Nothing happens. How do I discover the composer and number of the piano concerto that was playing at 7:20AM?

On Tuesday, between 5:30 and 6:30 you played a section of a disk with the SANCTUS of a Mass – I don't remember the author, but I think it had something about "Spheres". It was so beautiful.

At about 7:20AM August 6, I heard Emmanel Ax perform with the Cleveland quartet. Can you advise the composer and name of the piece? The piece is not listed on the web site–http://classical24.publicradio.org.
On 08/8/13 11:11 AM, Brian Thompson said:
What have you done to the search/playlist feature on this website? I visit every so often to look up music I've heard on the station. I've found with this visit it's impossible to find, even get to a couple of pieces I heard in the last 24 hours. It seems like everytime you change this feature it gets more difficult to use instead of easier. Anyway, maybe I need some special instructions to find what I,m looking for. The first was approximately @8:10 on 8/7/13, the other 7:34 on 8/8/13. Thanks for any help you can provde.

Your web site is totally useless.
At 6:00 pm this evening I attempted to find out what opera was played today (Saturday Aug. 10)
Totally impossible!

Why are the times of the track selection published in central time? And does it take into account DST? Last I checked Louisville is in the eastern time zone.
On 08/15/13 3:11 PM, Acton Ostling Jr said:
I, too, have had the same troubles trying to use the new Playlist format compared with the previous one. Today, no matter what I do, I cannot get it to go anywhere except the current day. Even when I type in yesterday's date in the Search Playlists bar, it takes me all the way back two months with a date not even resembling the one I typed in. It seems glitches need adjustment. If this continues, I would suggest going back to the previous format. It may not have been as "fancy" in terms of visual appeal, but it was far better if you were looking for full information.
On 08/18/13 2:29 PM, Jenny Snyder said:
I cannot find anything other than the current day's playlist. This is MUCH less useful than the previous version. I always listen in my car. So, I do not always catch the composer, name of selection, etc. The only info I have is the date and time the selection was on the air. This site does not allow searching by those criteria. I am definitely irritated that the playlist history is now useless.

Hi Joe, All of our opera listings are here: http://wuol.org/opera/
As always, if you have a question you can email email@example.com
Thanks for listening!
On 08/19/13 6:59 PM, Daniel Gilliam said:
Thanks everyone for your comments. First, an apology for how frustrating using the playlist can be. Here's a brief explanation as to why the playlist doesn't work as well.
Believe it or not, our new website is not in anyway related to the playlist issues. The problem is with the software that pushes our playlist to the website, which is provided by NPR Digital Services. At this time, this is the only product available that shows "Now Playing" and playlist history (however limited, at times) and also helps us file our quarterly Sound Exchange reports.
Sound Exchange works with all the rights organizations (like ASCAP) to ensure that royalties are paid to the performers and composers. This is a cumbersome process that (with our limited staff) makes this process much easier.
Another issue is when we broadcast our satellite service, Classical 24 (late evening, overnights, early morning and weekends). Classical 24 is not currently using this system that many other radio stations are using. This means that when they play something, it will not show up in our "Now Playing" window.
We are communicating daily with NPR Digital to try and resolve these playlist issues (we are as frustrated as you are) and, in some cases, we send them your comments left here and sent via email (you can always email studio at wuol dot org if you have a question).
We are doing all we can to deliver the best service through this website, but I do realize it falls short right now. Bear with us and email us when you have questions. Thank you!

I see from the comments that you are having problems with play list accessibility, but I am wondering if you would be able to fill in the gaps, perhaps via e-mail, for my students and I? I teach Music History courses at UofL and one of the first assignments for students is to listen to one hour of WUOL. Part of the assignment requires them to have the playlist, which has never been much of a problem in the past. The assignment is not as a great of a success if the don't know what they are listening to, and they are never able to catch everything the announcers say. Will you answer e-mail requests for playlist info if that info is not available here?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Trying to find a symphonic work played around 9P on Sunday, October 20th….Rainbow Body? Atlanta Symphony. Sounded like, perhaps, an Eastern European composer? Sounded fairly contemporary. Thank you. BTW, tried to search your playlists, and site did not respond to search.

Yes, that was Rainbow Body. Sorry you have trouble with the playist. There are some helpful tips in the comments above.

Hi. I am having a hard time searching through the new playlist/program listing, and wondered if someone could help. A song was played this morning, 10/23, around 8:45a (it probably started just a bit before this). I didn't catch any details from it, I just now that it featured vocals, with the sopranist being noted by the host afterwards. I made a note to look this up on the site and buy it, but can't find it. Thanks.

On 12/14/13 5:46 PM, Jim Francis said:
I see from comments that you are having playlist problems. Aside from the mechanics, I hope you're aware that the content is not very helpful. Right now, the Cleveland orchestra is playing "Violin Concerto". Isn't that just a bit vague, for a classical music station? (Yes, it's a very familiar piece, and I should recall the composer immediately – but I can't.)
On 01/17/14 9:09 PM, Jim Francis said:
??? The playlist bears no resemblance at all to what's being played. Whassup? Different station?

My husband and I are birders. This morning, we were at Ashland Park, across the river, looking for some of the rare far northern birds that are wintering with us this year. Coming over the bridge, I thought I heard birds. Through Spaghetti Junction, I kept hearing birds. Finally we decided it must be the radio – WUOL 90.5. What a surprise! I didn't know anyone had ever used real bird calls in music!!

Buford Academy, which serves students in second through fifth grades, has the highest number of students - 965. "That's about as large as we'll let a school get - around the 1,000 mark," Hamby said during the monthly school board meeting. Construction at Buford Academy, Buford High and the new Central Office is complete, and district officials should be able to move into the administrative building between Sept. 8 and 15, Hamby said.

From the clay to the grass to the hard court, many questions remain unanswered about the 2013 year in tennis. Novak Djokovich of Serbia, coming off a dominant win at the 2012 Sony Ericsson Open, is sitting atop the tennis world and is the number one-ranked player in the world. As the clay season approaches, however, and with it the 2013 French Open, it is the one major that Djokovich has yet to win. Rafael Nadal, arguably the best clay tennis player in history and the second-ranked player in the world, looks to continue his dominance on clay and take down Djokovich in the 2013 French Open. Tickets for the 2013 French Open will be hot this year, as tennis fans clamor to see if Djokovich can beat Nadal on clay, something that Federer could never accomplish. Roger Federer is not far behind, ranked number three in the world, and he could make a push for the top spot starting with an upset win at the French Open, which takes place from May 27-June 9, 2013.
French Open tickets will be a big draw, but the 2013 Wimbledon is also approaching, so don't forget to get your 2013 Wimbledon tickets from Ticket Liquidator soon. The Wimbledon takes place from June 24-July 7, 2013. World Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) number one ranked Novak Djokovic is poised to cement his dominance atop the world of tennis, but not without a challenge from second-ranked Nadal and third-ranked Roger Federer, who not long ago was considered the best tennis player in the world but didn't win a major tennis tournament last year for the first time since 2002. Andy Murray is right outside of the top and is itching to create some havoc of his own. There will be no shortage of drama this year, so get your 2013 tennis tickets while you still can.
On the women's side, Women's Tennis Association top ranked Victoria Azarenka is currently number one, but there are plenty of other players gunning for her, including Caroline Wozniacki who was just replaced atop the rankings by Azarenka. Petra Kvitova is right behind and eager to make a run for the top, and perennial powerhouse Maria Sharapova is in third. 2011 French Open winner Li Na, the first Asian player to win a Grand Slam singles title, is eager to climb up the rankings. What about the Williams sisters, where have they gone? Venus and Serena Williams have battled through injuries in recent years and would like to regain some of their lost luster as a new wave of stars has grabbed the headlines. A recent win by Serena Williams at the Family Circle Cup shows that the Williams sisters are far from done. With all of the unpredictable plot lines that have yet to play out this year, 2013 tennis tickets from Ticket Liquidator are a must-have. Notice has been served.
The Majors, Grand Slam tournaments that include the 2014 Australian Open, the 2014 French Open (the only one played on clay), the 2014 US Open and the famous grass of 2014 Wimbledon, are always a top draw and tennis fans from around the world will be seeking tickets to these premier events. Other tournaments like the 2014 Davis Cup, an annual men's national team competition, the 2014 Fed Cup, the 2014 BNP Paribas Open, the 2014 Sony Ericsson Open are also popular, part of the 2014 ATP World Tour Masters 1000, a collection of 9 tournaments.Tickets for the 2014 ATP World Tour Finals are always in high demand. Don't miss out on up-and-coming junior tennis stars that will be the future face of the sport at the 2014 Junior Fed Cup and 2014 Junior Davis Cup and get your tickets today. The International Tennis Federation (ITF) junior tour allows juniors to build up their rankings before climbing the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) and Women's Tennis Association (WTA) rankings.
Derived from the Ancient Greek word, Sphairistikè (literally "the art of playing ball"), tennis has grown into a glittering series of contests fought out by some of the world's fittest sportsmen. Tennis tickets are known to sell for astronomic prices outside major stadiums during competitions, so save yourself the hassle - and the money - and find cheap tennis tickets right here with a simple click of the mouse. Whether it's the strawberries and lawn tennis of Wimbledon tickets, the glamor and glitz of ATP World Tour tickets, or the increasingly popular Sony Ericsson Open tickets, you'll be thrilled you bought tennis tickets. 2014 is set to be a huge summer, with the main tournaments drawing bigger crowds than ever before. Be one of the lucky ones, with tennis tickets from TicketLiquidator.
The competition on both the ATP and WTA tours is fierce as the game continues to get faster and better. Get your tennis tickets today and enjoy a day out at the courts!

I'm not as familiar with gas as I spec and design primarily around electric but I've got 2 comments for you.
1. MFR recommendations for installation are usually spot on, if they show you what you want to do and you could do it you are usually ok. Make sure if you are side venting to have clearances as indicated in their instructions.
2. 95%+ of HD (and other Big Box Stores) workers are incapable of giving good advice, especially where plumbing, electric and HVAC are concerned. Most of their employees only know what someone else told them, they have no direct knowledge or experience.

Schools Grants & College Scholarships
by, 03-13-2012 at 02:47 AM (797 Views)
Finding out ways and means of how you can pursue your higher education with the high costs can be a cause of concern for both parents and students. But with proper research of the variousSchool Grants schemes for financial aid or college grants will give you a solution especially because some of these aids include federal school grants where the students dont have to pay the aid after graduation and it can be utilized to cover ant expenses while attending college. Federal grants is decided on the financial need of the student taking into account the amount that the family can offer in the section of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) report; so the student has to be perfectly honest when he fill up the FAFSA application form so that we will be eligible of receiving the federal grants. Once you have been awarded the grant, it is usually deposited in your student account, deposited into your bank or paid by check. The Pell Grant and the Federal Supplement Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) are the two types of Federal Student Grants.
In many colleges they may have funds set apart as student college grants beside the two Federal Student Grants mentioned above. The details of these college grants will be available in the schools financial aid office which has to be followed up and taken advantage of as early as possible since most of these grants are very limited and gets distributed quickly. Filling up the application for the FAFSA is the first step that needs to be done to avail Federal Student Aid of any kind and over and above this; most schools have their own forms which will have to be filled provided that you qualify for any of the local or private financial aid that is available. Be sure that you know about your familys financial resources as this information is of prime importance when it comes to deciding your real requirement for financial aid to avail such student grants. All student grants are reserved for students whose families deserve financial aid, it is worth mentioning that if you deserve such grants, it is worth looking into all avenues including student loans and work study

Have you ever thought about your social network prior to 2004—back when friends were friends and followers was just a word signifying an order to things? Think about whom you interacted with, whom you knew well, whom you shared with. You might want to sketch out this network. I've drawn one version of my social network below—these are my "in real life" friends and family, the folks I spend my holidays with. I have cut it off at about 50 "connections" to simplify it, but hopefully you get the picture.
For comparison, see the multicolor social graph depicting the folks to whom I am connected through LinkedIn. With more than 1,000 connections this social graph appears to be a pretty densely connected network of professionals.
In each social graph I am intentionally centrally located and the folks with whom I share a connection are mapped out as a series of spokes from me as the hub. In my friends-and-family graph I used solid lines to represent my connections, but I have also added dotted lines to represent "in-laws": this is a second layer of information. I have drawn family above the equator and friends below the equator: this is a third layer of information. And notice that not all lines are the same length: this could be a fourth layer of information. Though not entirely drawn to scale, some relationships are tighter than others.
In the LinkedIn network the colors represent the origin or nature of my connections, a fifth layer of information. Most of my connections are connected themselves—a sixth layer of information. And though it is impossible to see, the size of each node varies based on the number of connections that that person has—a seventh layer of information.
I share these social graphs because I strongly believe that the science of social networks is quickly becoming a new competency for medical educators. Understanding the tools for social network analysis is vital to your professional development. Appreciating the influence of existing social networks is vital to your planning. And turning existing social networks into engineered communities of practice may be our only chance at fixing what ails the U.S. healthcare system. My advice: ensure that someone in your company is thinking about this stuff and, if you need help, reach out to your own professional network to find support!

Comings & Goings
New Staff Addition
Edward LeBlanc joined Flow Science as a Software Engineer in June 2007. Edward's focus will be on the FLOW-3D user interface. Edward was awarded a BS with honors in Electrical Engineering (Microprocessor systems and Electronics) from the University of Colorado at Denver in 1985, and during the first five years of his career designed microprocessor-based instrumentation systems as well as the software to run his hardware.
During this time and in the following years, he found himself spending more time writing software than designing hardware, and as his expertise grew, he increasingly enjoyed software, especially the object oriented software which is now his principal focus.
Edward's most recent experience has been managing the development of a music aggregation system and media sales kiosk for a firm in Lübeck, Germany. His wife, Signe, is from Germany, and their son, Luca, was born there in 2001. Edward notes, "Besondere Grüße an alle deutschsprachigen Partner und Kunden." Welcome to the team, Edward!
The Graduate
A recent addition to our staff--see the last addition of the News--Anup Gokarn--officially celebrated the completion of his Ph.D. studies at the Iowa State University. Anup received his doctorate in Mechanical Engineering on May 5, 2007. Congratulations Anup!

A film; part of the New Visions of Japanese Cinema
Thursday, June 07, 20127:30 PMThe James Bridges TheaterMelnitz Hall 1409UCLA
Izumi, a headstrong high-school girl with a cheerfully cynical outlook (she routinely "rates" the newspaper by assigning articles positive or negative values) finds a wallet containing 300,000 yen (almost $4,000) and the owner's ID: Sato, a wealthy high-school boy. Instead of returning it, Izumi lends a hefty sum to an older fishing buddy with financial problems. Her classmates Hasumi and Kaoru later force her to return the wallet to Sato, but, unable to account for all of the money, Izumi agrees to help him console a friend in the hospital by creating a newspaper containing only "good news."
Keiichi Kobayashi's serene coming-of-age story avoids the customary trappings of teen culture and genre with a pronounced sense of quiet. With its lively, black-and-white cinematography and long takes, Kobayashi's aesthetic — drained of color and clutter — feels like a dream or a distant memory. ABOUT THE PINK SKY owes its underlying energy to the young actors (all newcomers) with real chemistry, who deftly balance the quirky humor, teenage uncertainty, and subtle shifts in adolescent consciousness.
Official Selection, Sundance Film Festival

"A thoroughly watchable and increasingly engaging indie Japanese film, driven forward by a confident and engaging performance by Ai Ikeda." –Mark Adams, SCREEN DAILY

Neutral Experience
I applied through an employee referral and the process took 2 months - interviewed at SRA International.
Interview Details Panel interview with 7 interviewers asking questions simultaneously. Questions are phrased in a way to judge the individuals character and what skill sets they can bring to the team. Only one interview is conducted and then an evaluation is done to determine how qualified each applicant is for a given position. Once an offer is extended a background check for govt. clearance is required before start date.

Easy Interview
I applied through college or university and the process took a day - interviewed at SRA International in September 2010.
Interview Details The interview was mostly behavioral, with the hiring manager asking a lot of questions about where I thought I would be a good fit. She was constantly taking notes on the keywords I was dropping. Towards the end, she asked the regular, "how much am I looking for", to which I replied with my threshold. She didn't seem too enthusiastic about my threshold, which was in the norm with my age and experience.
Regardless, they were friendly, courteous and professional.

Average Interview
I applied through a recruiter and the process took a day - interviewed at SRA International in March 2008.
Interview Details The process requires you to interview with two levels of management, generally a site lead and project/program manager. This can really help you if the interview with the lower manager doesn't go as well as you planned or they aren't quite sure of your capabilities, which is what I experienced. I clicked with the project manager because we had similar backgrounds and he could verify my abilities through a mutual network of people. The recruiters are well-organized and are generally on time to meet you and ensure that you aren't left alone while waiting on the interview team. I only went through one round of interviews and was offered a position the next day.
Interview Question – The first interviewer frequently questioned what he perceived to be my lack of experience. View Answer
Negotiation Details – For contracts that need immediate fill, they will offer a sign-on bonus to start quickly. Great if you're unemployed or willing to burn bridges with your old employer.

Staff Writer
Jessica Meir studies animals in extreme situations, such as elephant seals that dive nearly a mile deep in the ocean and geese that fly as high as airliners over the Himalayan mountains.
Jessica Meir, a 35-year-old scientist from Maine, is among eight people who were selected from a pool of more than 6,000 applicants to be trained as astronauts. Meir, who grew up in Caribou, is the youngest of five in a family of overachievers.
Boston Globe
In this picture taken through a safety glass, U.S. astronaut Christopher Cassidy of York, Maine, crew member of the mission to the International Space Station (ISS), is seen during inspection of his space suit prior to the launch of Soyuz-FG rocket at the Russian leased Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on Thursday, March 28, 2013. (AP Photo/Ramil Sitdikov, Pool)
Her next subject could be human beings living in the extreme conditions of outer space.
The 35-year-old scientist from Maine is among eight people who were selected from a pool of more than 6,000 applicants to be trained as astronauts. The selections for the training class, NASA's first in four years, were announced Monday.
If she successfully completes her two years of intense training, Meir could join Chris Cassidy, the only active astronaut from Maine. Cassidy, who is aboard the International Space Station, grew up in York.
Meir, who grew up in Caribou and now lives in Somerville, Mass., will move to Texas this summer to begin a two-year training program at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.
Although there are no guarantees that she will be assigned to a space mission, she hopes to make it to the space station or perhaps a near-Earth asteroid, which could serve as staging area for a trip to Mars.
"It's amazing to realize this dream you have been thinking about for so long actually comes true," she said Tuesday in a telephone interview.
As the youngest of five children in a family of competitive overachievers, Meir was always trying to catch up to her brothers and sisters, said her mother, Ulla-britt Meir, who lives in Cape Elizabeth with Meir's father, Josef Meir.
Jessica Meir was the valedictorian of the Class of 1995 at Caribou High School, earned a bachelor's degree from Brown University in Rhode Island, got a master's degree in space science at the International Space University in France and worked on human physiology experiments at the Johnson Space Center.
After getting her Ph.D. from the Scripps Institute of Oceanography at the University of California in San Diego, Meir investigated the low-oxygen tolerance of high-flying bar-headed geese as a researcher at the University of British Columbia.
The geese migrate twice a year over the world's tallest mountains, the Himalayas. To study them, Meir trained bar-headed geese to fly in a wind tunnel while they wore masks and little backpacks with data monitoring equipment.
To do that, she raised a group of birds so they saw her as their mother. They followed her around campus, first as Meir walked, then as she rode a bicycle, and then as she rode a motor scooter, said Bill Milsom, who heads the zoology department at the University of British Columbia.
By reducing the oxygen in the wind tunnel, Meir was able to determine how little oxygen the geese needed, even for strenuous physical activity.
The three-year project, which ended last year, required a researcher with a lot of patience, Milsom said.
"Jessica is incredibly bright, very determined, and she is very organized and efficient," he said.
Meir has done extensive field work in Antarctica, studying how penguins function during deep dives.
Meir is also a scuba diver and an airplane pilot. She has experienced weightlessness while flying in NASA's high-altitude training aircraft, nicknamed the "vomit comet."
She now works as an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School, doing research at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston.
Talk about the right stuff. If her resume appears ready-made for NASA, that's no accident.
Meir has dreamed of being in space since she was in first grade, when she drew a picture of an astronaut to illustrate what she wanted to be when she grew up.
And she's cool under pressure, her mother said. When she was a senior at Brown, she went paragliding off the Florida coast and the line broke. Meir descended to a tiny island and landed in a tree.
The captain found her hanging a few feet above the ground, said Ulla-britt Meir.
He said, "What are you going to be when you grow up?' " She said, 'I want to be an astronaut.' He said, 'You passed the test.' "
In two years of astronaut boot camp, candidates are schooled in space station systems, Earth sciences, meteorology, space science and engineering. Meir also will learn Russian so she can speak to the cosmonauts on the space station.
She also will train in land and water survival, aircraft operations and scuba diving.
Once her training is complete, she'll be given mission.
Because NASA is so selective in choosing astronaut candidates, almost all of them make it through the training program.
Ulla-britt Meir said she won't let her worries stop her daughter. "You have to fulfill your dream," she said. "There is risk in everything. But that's what she wants to do. We always support her."

"I was worried about placing this order since a preview was not going to be provided before I placed it. Once I figured out the number of letters I was going to be using was almost identical to the one in the sample, I felt pretty safe to place the order. I'm so happy I did! The stamp is BEAUTIFUL and the font size and spacing is PERFECT. I love the style, not overly ornate, but clean and simple. I even received a positive unsolicited response from my husband who quite frankly could care less about these type of detail oriented things. NOTE: based on some reviews on other websites regarding 'three DESIGNING women' (maker of stamp) please keep in mind that this is a rubber stamp after all and that the lettering is not going to be as dark or sharp as it appears in the sample on your screen."
"We were a little worried about the result cause we didn't get a chance to see the preview or digital pic of this embosser, when we receive it. Its perfect just like what we wish it to be!"
"The quality of this embosser is amazing. It looks great & is easy to use and is made out of quality materials. I bought it for my business & I love it. Brilliant purchase. Absolutely love it!"
"I have purchased 3 of these, and they are adorable and make perfect engagement gifts for the new bride to be! Clear, not blurry and legible. Love them! Highly recommend to anyone purchasing a stamp. Darling"
"Upon buying our first home I immediately ordered the embosser. I LOVE it. It is so much classier and easier for a return address than using stickers or scribbling in the corner. My husband even enjoys using the embosser because he likes the pressing process. We use the embosser at least weekly, if not more frequently. While it was more expensive than labels the fact that we can use it over and over and over again for every type of mail more than made up for the price. We have not had any issues with it (unlike a stamper contraption ordered elsewhere that is constantly breaking) and find that overall it was a great value."

Member Since: 09/19/2011
Georgia Fowler is a photographer who lives between two beautiful countries, France and Thailand and is dedicated to promoting fine art through photography and supplying collectors new and established worldwide.
I am inspired by the beauty in everyday life, by colour and most of all by travel. I love visiting new places and seeing the different energy and vibrancy created by people, nature and architecture.
Our life is often very fast paced and we are sometimes so busy that we can fail to stop and appreciate the beauty all around us. I try to find beauty in most things and that is what I capture with my lens. I try to see the small details that are often missed.
Thanks to the endless marketing potential of the Internet (and also the marketing expertise of my husband and daughter (www.pulseglobal.org), lucky me!), my art is being collected worldwide, and has been shipped to many distant and not so distant locations over the last few years.
I specialise in black and white, travel and architecture photography but have a wide variety of styles including vintage style still life photography.

I have been working at Covance full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – Good salary/benefits package. Less traveling than other Companies.
Cons – No useful trainings are delivered to employees, they are not prepared for a career development (and, in fact, it very rare that the CRAs have the chance to become project managers or line managers, even after many years in the Company!).
Advice to Senior Management – Train promising employees and have them grow internally, rather that hiring PMs and LMs from outside, who, in most cases, have not the required experience anyway.
– I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Amy Newday, director of the Writing Center (Room 110 in Upjohn Library Commons), curls into the corner of the red couch and lifts a hand as if to punctuate her words, and says: "You WILL be judged."
Yet it's not Newday that will do the judging. She will tell it to you straight: it's the world out there that will judge you, outside of Kalamazoo College (and sometimes in), with every résumé you send out, every cover letter, every corporate missive, every office memo, every report, and every proposal. Never mind what you hear about sticks and stones. It's the words that carry power.
"We don't edit students' papers at the Writing Center," she says. "We help students determine how to succeed in the writing task at hand and work with them to develop the skills they need to succeed."
Newday helps students at Kalamazoo College find power and meaning in their writing. The philosophy of the center is that anyone can learn to write well, and that everyone can write better with help.
Having taught writing at Western Michigan University for three years, where she recently earned a Master of Fine Arts degree in poetry, Newday came to Kalamazoo College in 2011. She oversees 14 student consultants who, she says, essentially run the center. "I hire the consultants in the spring for the academic year ahead. A consultant should be able to work with all kinds of writers, not just in his or her own area of study, although I try to hire students for a diversity of expertise."
Allison LaRose '12, an English and German double major and a recent graduate and former consultant at the Writing Center, talks about the importance of her work there: "At K, classes are incredibly rigorous. At some point during their four years all K students will have to write at least a few essays requiring them to synthesize information, and it is absolutely crucial that students have the tools to express themselves succinctly. Given K's strong emphasis on study abroad and global competencies, students will experience an easier transition writing in their second or third languages (or adapt to different writing styles and requirements) if they excel at writing in their first."
Teaching and learning go hand in hand, and travel both ways. Umang Varma '14, a mathematics major, has praise for his experience at the Writing Center: "I find that speaking to a peer about my writing helps me see my own writing with a new pair of eyes. Asking a peer consultant specific questions about the tone, content, clarity, logic, and structure of my piece can be especially useful in revising the piece as well as learning to think about my writing."
The Writing Center assisted 50 international students for whom English was a second language (called ESL students) during the last academic year and 259 students total, tallying 639 consultations for the year. Teaching students how to switch from one language to another is just part of what they do.
"The consultant talks to the ESL student about his or her native language," Newday explains. "It helps us to help these students when we have an understanding about how his or her native language works, what challenges the student is facing. For instance, the sentence structure of the Korean language is very different from English. Knowing that helped us understand why the same issue kept reoccurring in the work of a student from Korea."
Says LaRose: "The Center is making an effort to partner with other centers on campus, including the Arcus Center for Social Justice Leadership, the Center for Career and Professional Development, and the Center for International Programs. This year, the Writing Center will be better prepared to address the needs of the school's growing international and ESL population."
The Writing Center is introduced to incoming students during first-year seminars, and subsequently the center is busiest in the fall quarter. As the academic year wanes, and as the student progresses to upper level classes, consultations drop off. At mere mention of this trend, Newday's face clouds with
"You WILL be judged!"frustration.
"Students think they don't need help writing after their first quarter—but that's not what we hear from faculty!"
Then again, Newday says, faculty, too, could use a reminder of this invaluable resource. "Professors can ask us to help students with a particular assignment. We can help more when we know the expectations of the professor. A frequent problem we see at the Writing Center is that students don't understand the terms of the assignment."
Students are invited to bring in whatever piece of writing they are working on—a research paper, a lab report, an application for study abroad, a Senior Individualized Project, or even a creative writing project. Bringing one's non-academic writing is fine, too.
"We won't try to get you to write what we think is a great poem. We will help you write what you feel is a great poem," Newday says. "When else in your life will you have the ability to get a free consultation to improve your writing?" She adds, "It's fine to come here just to hang out, too. We have word games like Scrabble on our shelves, and I'm thinking about doing a word game tournament this year. Language is for fun, too."
A hurdle Newday feels students need to overcome that may keep them from entering the Writing Center is "the culture that it is somehow not okay to ask for help. Any good writer knows that you never outgrow the need to revise. The better the writer, the more that writer will seek out ways to keep improving."
The Writing Center is open Sunday through Thursday, 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. Students unable to visit the Writing Center during regular hours, can e-mail email@example.com to request an appointment or call Amy Newday at 337.7381.

CHEERS - To a growing community bank. Patriot Federal Bank opened in 2005 in Canajoharie, then came to Johnstown in 2007, and now is building a branch in Amsterdam. Last year, the bank moved from a building it was leasing in Johnstown to a new building on Route 30A. At that time, Gordon Coleman, chief executive officer of Patriot Federal Bank, said a community bank has several advantages over a regionally owned bank whose decisions are made out of town. He said Patriot Federal's loan rates are competitive, and the decision-makers are in the local branches. So far, their decisions have resulted in positive growth. The new Amsterdam branch is expected to open in March.
CHEERS - To great young voices. The Greater Johnstown School District Board of Education recently recognized two Johnstown High School chorus members, junior Kevin Ammann and senior Helaina Stergas. Ammann is headed to the 77th Annual New York State School Music Association Conference in Rochester for rehearsals and a performance at the Eastman Theater. Stergas was selected as an alternate for the conference. In addition, Lindsey Howard, a Gloversville High School senior, will perform at the conference in Rochester. We join in singing high praises of these students' accomplishments.
JEERS - To another possible Fulton County tax increase. The county is working on a 2013 budget proposal that would raise the average property-tax rate by nearly 8 percent and exceed the state-imposed tax-levy cap for the second year in a row. The budget proposal would carry a tax levy - the amount of money raised in property taxes - of more than $30 million. We understand state-mandated costs pose a difficult challenge for county leaders, but they can find ways to stay under the tax cap. Property taxpayers, suffering through a down economy and years of municipal and school tax increases, can't afford to keep paying more. The county Board of Supervisors is considering using money from the fund balance to lower the tax increase. That certainly would help. Incidentally, the county tax levy 10 years ago - in 2003 - was $23.2 million.
CHEERS - To rising from the ashes. The new Mayfield Presbyterian Church is making steady progress and could open in two or three months, thanks to the dedication of its members. The congregation was dealt a major blow on April 28, 2011, when lightning struck the church's steeple and the building burned. But members didn't give up. They raised money and continued to meet at another location. The new church, at the site of the old one, is taking shape. It will be able to seat more than 200 people. We salute the church's pastor, the Rev. Bonnie Orth, and all the members who persevered and worked hard to rebuild their place of worship.

Adventures in Life and Photography with @hokaytokay
Learn more about Amanda's work in this video feature by Like Knows Like, produced by filmmaker Bas Berkhout (@bas_berkhout) and photographer Marije Kuiper (@marijekuiper). For more of Amanda's explorations in light and pattern, follow @hokaytokay on Instagram.
Just over a year ago, at the age of 20, Amanda Jasnowski (@hokaytokay) left her home in Ohio to pursue photography in New York City.
For Amanda, whose photos explore light and patterns, Instagram provides an outlet for daily creation. "The constant practice of taking photos every day has really helped me grow as a creative and helped further my aesthetic," says Amanda. "If for some reason you find yourself scrolling far back through my feed you can see the way my style has evolved. It's a good timeline."
Amanda's feed is also a documentation of the beauty found in everyday life. Speaking about her photos, she says: "More than anything I hope people take away a sense of appreciation of the small things in life and the beauty that is here if you are looking. I think most of my images are fairly simple and playful, lots of documenting. Humanity is a beautiful thing."
Collaborating with and learning from others is central to Amanda's work, and the Instagram community has been a major source of inspiration. "The support and encouragement that I've found through Instagram was a big influence in giving me the courage to move away from home last October. I continue to be thankful for the support and excited by this creative community I've grown to be a part of."

"This is a great video of Canadian Photographer Robert Burley (who i happen to work for as his photographic assistant).
His work over the past ten years has revolved around the infrastructure that has created/supported photographic materials. He has a monograph being published this coming October that will feature this work along with a touring exhibition that will travel to the U.S.A, Canada and Europe. "

Alec Soth – The Current State of the PhotoBook (by Aperture Foundation)
On September 20th, 2013, Alec Soth spoke on the current state of the photobook in advance of revealing the thirty books shortlisted for the Paris Photo–Aperture Foundation Book Award categories: First PhotoBook and PhotoBook of the Year.
"Everybody Street" illuminates the lives and work of New York's iconic street photographers and the incomparable city that has inspired them for decades. The documentary pays tribute to the spirit of street photography through a cinematic exploration of New York City, and captures the visceral rush, singular perseverance and at times immediate danger customary to these artists.
Featuring: Bruce Davidson , Elliott Erwitt, Jill Freedman, Bruce Gilden, Joel Meyerowitz, Rebecca Lepkoff, Mary Ellen Mark, Jeff Mermelstein, Clayton Patterson, Ricky Powell, Jamel Shabazz, Martha Cooper, Jeff Mermelstein, and Boogie, with Max Kozloff and Luc Sante.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
A browser extension for Firefox has been combined with a set of privacy applications that give users more control over how their personal information is shared online.
The extension is the Targeted Advertising Cookie Opt-Out or TACO, developed by Christopher Soghoian. TACO is aimed at stopping online advertising networks from setting cookies, or small data files, on a person's computer that record information about their Web surfing, which can the be used to serve targeted advertisements.
Many of the online advertising companies offer an "opt-out" cookie, which will exempt a particular user from being tracked, but the user often must visit a Web site in order to obtain that cookie, according to Soghoian's Web site. Also, if a user inadvertently deletes the cookie, in some cases they may have to go to obtain specific opt-out cookies again.
The latest 3.0 version of TACO can now block a total of 95 advertising networks. It also shows more granular detail on what tracking systems Web sites are using and displays them in a console when a person visits a new Web page. Further controls allow people to block particular tracking systems while allowing others. TACO 3.0 can also show if the site has had a recent data breach.
Soghoian has also partnered with Abine, a company started in 2008 that specializes in creating consumer privacy applications that have have been wrapped into the extension. Albine built privacy extensions for both Firefox and Internet Explorer.
Albine's privacy applications have been combined with TACO into a powerful extension that can let users manage and block Flash cookies, other JavaScript-based tracking methods, HTTP cookies, a password management feature and a way to auto-fill in forms using a preconfigured set of identity information, among others.
"Abine has the resources necessary to keep improving TACO, maintain the opt-out cookie list, and add other innovative features to enable users to protect themselves from online targeting and tracking," according to Soghoian. "They'll be able to provide the kind of frequent updates, ongoing support and development that users expect from the software tools they trust."
TACO 3.0 with Albine can also block single-sign on features such as Facebook Connect. Albine's software also allows people to control their Facebook privacy settings through the extension.
Albine is in beta and requires an invitation which can be obtained through the company's Web site. The company plans to make money by offering other services connected with its application, such as fast proxies, premium e-mail and phone features.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

"The Passion of Solomon Northup" is a fine look at the original story as written in the 19th century. The author of the blog writes, "Few viewers will be familiar with Northup's book, which describes his life as a free black man in New York, who was drugged, kidnapped and sold into slavery, before escaping 12 years later. Yet Northup's narrative was, at the time, widely read: it sold three times as many copies as Frederick Douglass's slave narrative in its first two years."
Writer Eric Herschthal goes into great detail to talk about the cinematography of the movie's hype -- in other words, is the film true to the book or does it take a different path? Can't wait to find out this weekend.
