I hated going to this school. Rude/immature kids, terrible teachers, and a HUGE drug problem. It's just not a great campus. Glad I graduated this year. It was the WORST 4 years of my life. If you have other schools available for you, PLEASE take them! Do NOT go to this school!
Kent-Meridian is the greatest school out there, our diversity is out of this world. Represent the Royal Power and build our dynasty as one. Rumors are KM is the most ghetto and lousy school out there, but I'll tell you what, it really is not. It may be the best, it's your opinion, not otheres.
When I told my friends that I was going to KM (went to Cedar heights) They thought that I was crazy and KM is the most Ghetto school there is. But in reality this is a rumor that was started by outsiders and/or possibly someone who has had a bad experience. Also having low test scores can be from people in the school who have more problems at home. Also there's more people who have had less time to get an education because they have immigrated. Also if you want good teachers who help you out go to the KMTA or kent meridian technology academy. The teachers there are phenomenal, there way of teaching isn't just out of the book. Also if you do KMTA and certain electives you don't even have to carry a textbook.
The Kent-Meridian refused to follow the IEP that was put in place for my child by their own District and the district would not hold the teacher accountable. The school failed my child and I had to file Citizens Compliant with OSPI. But my child lost 2-years of education in the mean-time. OSPI did determine that Kent-Meridian was in the wrong and they had no idea on how to write an IEP. I would have to file a Citizen compliant with the office of professional conduct to address the ruddiness and bully like attitude that my sons encounter from the teachers. I did end up transferring him out the Kent School District all together.
No they don't they are horrible to the kids; the teachers make them feel useless. They make sure they don't pass the WAHSL and they give out Certificates of Completion instead of Diploma which effects them getting into any high intuition. I don't recommend this school to anyone with special needs or without special need children. The facility are just there to collect a paycheck, they are lazy.
Kent Meridian was the worst school i could have ever have gone to in my life! It was my junior year and i wasn't really feeling like i was getting much attention form my teachers who were are all rude and didn't grade or teach properly they all had an attitude and even worse the principal was so arrogant He lets the teachers bully there students and he ignores the parents when they ask for help and doesn't care about the students that were failing and they honestly weren't great teachers they were all lazy and sat on their computers everyday ....i honestly wouldn't be surprised if no one graduated there because the staff aren't even devoted to their jobs in helping us achieve.
KMHS is a GREAT school. Everyone is very friendly; the teachers, students, and staff. The school is very diverse; so if you are of another race other than caucasian, you won't feel left out or anything. The rumors of the school having a bad reputation for fighting and such are not true at all. Yes, there's fighting ocasionally, but even the best of schools have those kind of diciplinary problems. At KM you'll feel at home and will be treated with respect and kindness. Proud to be a GRADUATE ROYAL! GOOOOOO ROYALS!!!
The best school! Im proud to be a royal! Teachers are awesome! The helped me alot!
I am a junior at KM and absolutely love this school. and highly encourage everyone to come here. we have a bad reputation in the kent society but 1) we are the ONLY kent school district that offers IB (international baccalaureate) 2) we are the ONLY kent high school with the technology academy 3) Beat Kentlake and Kentwood (local high schools) in mock trial. 4) our principal was voted the 2010 best principal in western washington 5) one of the very few schools in washington and ONLY school in kent with the Challenge Day program 6) very diverse and friendly student body and staff. 7) undefeated track and field team 8) dance team won state and many many other things that makes KM a fantastic school!
Don't listen to the response below from a "teacher". The WASL & SAT scores are low not because of the teaching staff but because of the transient nature of the student population. The turn over rate is high, if students don't have a stable living situation and move often they will do worse and not form teacher relationships. My son is in the Technology/IB program and does very well. He has all 4's on WASL and excellent SAT scores. I believe the good teachers at this school are part of his success. They have some of the best teachers in the district. And also one of the few schools offering 4 years of Japanese. You aren't just a number here. A very diverse school with an environment that kids can thrive in. As far as sports the coaches are great, very good cross-country/track team.
As a student who would have given anything to not come to KM in freshman year, I can sincerely say I now love this school, and am very sad to be leaving this year. It is the only school to offer the IB program, a series of rigorous college-prep courses that look amazing on transcripts in the KSD, along with the Tech Academy. Even if our sports and academics aren't amazing, the student body has plenty of spirit and we're ready to be out there in the rain to support our fellow classmates. We are a family above everything, and a diverse one at that. The teachers care for the students to the extent where they will personally walk into the counselor's office and negotiate schedule changes so the student is able to take a certain class, spoken from personal experience. We are the underdog of the KSD, yes, but we are certainly more than the rumors you probably have heard.
Kent-Meridian is the worse school in the Kent School district. Check the stats for yourself before you place your child at this school. Kent-Meridian as a school has the worse WASL, SAT, ACT and Athletic records in the State. If you want your child to learn how to win and learn! Do not send them to Kent-Meridian
Technology academy is great, I spend 5 out of 6 classes behind a laptop provided by the school. I really love working with computers, and suits me best. No other high school around has a technology academy, where you take classes on a computer.
This school is amazing! The environment is completely unique and there are tons of oppertunities for students to succeed. KM has the best computers and technology in the district and is the only one in the area to offer the IB program. The only drawbacks are that there is a large amount of staff turnover and that the guidance counselors do nothing to help us get into college. But those are the only negitive things! KM does not deserve it's bad reutation... at all.
I love this school. As a (soon-to-be) alum of K-M, I have to say it really is a top-notch highschool. The IB program is rigorus and thoroughly prepares students for college and beyond. Teachers and administration are always looking out for what's in the best interst of the student. KM is one of the most diverse schools in the area, providing students a well-rounded educational experience. Due to some recent technology grants, Kent-Meridian is leading the way in the Kent School District; each classroom is outfitted with a 'smart board', projector, DVD player, and document camera. I strongly encourage parents to go and visit KM so they can see how wonderful this school really is!
This is the most diverse school I have attended ad that's great but this is not a very hand s on school and they seem to lack in the technology department
Kent Meridian has perhaps the best English Language Learning program in the country. They do a great job dealing with one of the most diverse populations of students anywhere.
This school has a bad rap, but it has really improved its academic standards lately. If you walk into the school during the school day, you feel extremely safe, as the halls have no students lingering. If you peak your head into a classroom, you'll find that most students are learning, rather than sleeping or goofing off. My only complaint is that its difficult to get anything done over there if you have a request. Your best bet is to go straight to the teachers, as they seem to be able to pull more strings than the administration
It's good to see that I am not the only parent that thinks this school and district are absolutly garbage. The comments about the school and district administration are spot on. Parents, spend the money and place your children in private schools or send them to another district.
I think Kent Meridan's quality is getting better and I think teachers are trying to immprove the school.

Governor seeks candidates for Neb. education board
Gov. Dave Heineman is looking for applicants to fill a second vacant position on the Nebraska State Board of Education.
The governor says in a news release Thursday that there's an opening in the eight-member board to represent residents of District 4. That includes portions of Douglas and Sarpy counties.
The announcement comes after the resignation Tuesday of board member Rebecca Valdez. She is the second board member to resign in a month, after Mark Quandahl of District 2 resigned in late January.
The terms for Valdez and Quandahl both run through 2016.

Determining Whether Dry-Dispersion Can Be Used in a Laser-Diffraction System
Q. We need to measure the particle size of a moisture-sensitive powder. We would like to use dry analysis on our laser-diffraction system, but the particles are fragile and we're struggling to get robust results. Is wet measurement with a nonaqueous solvent the only option?
A. Successful dry dispersion with pressurized air relies on applying enough energy to completely separate the particles without damaging the primary particle. For fragile particles such as yours, this can be challenging. It may be that wet measurement is the best answer. Before reaching that conclusion, though, you should rigorously assess the feasibility of dry dispersion.
First, carry out a pressure titration and measure particle size as a function of the pressure of the dispersing gas. Increasing pressure puts more dispersive energy into the system, and will therefore tend to decrease the measured particle size. Ideally, a plot of the resulting data will have a plateau, which is a region where increasing pressure has no impact on particle size, because complete dispersion has been achieved. If your data has a plateau, you have identified a condition for dry dispersion. However, as ISO13320 (2009) observes, such a plateau is seldom observed in the real world (1). In the absence of a plateau, you can compare your results with wet data. If, at a certain dispersion pressure, the match is very close across the complete particle-size distribution, you can use these dry-dispersion conditions. If not, it is possible that your disperser may be breaking up the primary particles.
Dispersers differ in their design. Some rely heavily on impaction, which is extremely efficient when the primary particles are strong enough to withstand the forces generated, but gentler dispersion can be a more effective strategy with more fragile materials. Some laser-diffraction instruments have dry systems that can be configured with different disperser types to accommodate the widest possible range of materials. Consider whether your disperser can be switched for something more suitable. If not, then wet measurement may be your only answer, unless your need is great enough to justify investment in a brand-new instrument.
—Carl Levoguer, product marketing manager for laser particle sizing and imaging at Malvern Instruments.
If you have a problem with your equipment or process, an industry expert may have the solution. Please send your question to Jennifer Markarian, editor of Equipment and Processing Report, and we may be able to provide an answer in a future issue. All questions will remain anonymous.

Great fight, too bad about that ending. Sak could have easily won if he had picked his shots better. They should rematch.
This is what I meant when I said a bad way to start the main card.
Just look at the gif! the 3 in the middle hit. The first two no, and the last 3 no. They are hitting directly behind his ear.
There are many paths to freedom, not all are peaceful
He's a career 4-8 in the UFC prior to this DQ win, has only main evented when previous fighters (Mezger and Okami) have come down with late injuries and has been cut by ZUFFA twice already. I think the Dennis Green quote fits in for Cote.

|Christopher Kenneth Biggins[1]
16 December 1948
Oldham, Lancashire, England, UK
|Other names
|Actor, television presenter

|Beatrice Norbury (m. 1971–74) (divorced)
Neil Sinclair (m. 2006)
Christopher Kenneth Biggins, often referred to as simply Biggins, (born 16 December 1948) is a British actor and television presenter.
Biggins was born in Oldham, Lancashire, and brought up in Salisbury, Wiltshire, where he took elocution lessons and participated in local drama groups. His first big stage role was at the age of 17 in their Stage '65 production of Molière's Le Médecin malgré lui, where he played the lead as the hapless mistaken Doctor. This led to a job at the local repertory theatre.[2]
He has been best known as a comedy actor, appearing as the regular character Lukewarm in the popular situation comedy Porridge (1974–77) starring Ronnie Barker. Other comedy shows he appeared in include Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads? (1973) and Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em (1973, 1978). In 1976 he played Nero in the BBC dramatisation of I, Claudius by Robert Graves, having been selected for the role partly on the strength of a television commercial in which he had played a Roman emperor presiding over the games. He also appeared in the BBC's Poldark in 1977, and the TV miniseries Masada in 1981. Despite these serious roles, his co-hosting of Surprise, Surprise and hosting children's gameshow On Safari (1982–1985) for TVS led to him being typecast as a "bubbly personality"; when asked in 2005 if he resented this, he replied
"No, not a bit of it. I'm perfectly happy being me, thank you, and I happen to know that I am afforded enormous respect from everybody I know. And anyway, I'm having something of a second wind now. I've reached the age [57] where all kinds of roles are opening up to me."[2]
On children's television, he had a regular role as supermarket manager Adam Painting in the children's television programme Rentaghost (1978–1983) and also played Reverend Whiting in Southern Television's Brendon Chase, produced in 1980. In the early 1980s he hosted children's gameshow On Safari, a game show with a jungle-themed studio set.
Biggins was the subject of This Is Your Life in 1999 when he was surprised by Michael Aspel at the Theatre Royal, Brighton.
Biggins appeared in the Big Finish Productions audio drama The One Doctor, based on the television series Doctor Who. His film roles include The Sex Thief (1973), Eskimo Nell (1975), The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), Adventures of a Plumber's Mate (1978), Derek Jarman's The Tempest (1979), and "The Baker" in the 1999 Video Version of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. His theatre roles have included "The Baker" in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar, and 18 months at the London Palladium in the stage adaptation of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (where he was teamed in a double act with Louise Gold).
In 2008, he briefly co-presented a Sunday morning radio show on BBC London with Lesley Joseph.[3]
Biggins is well known for his performances in pantomime. His most famous role is that of "Widow Twankey" in Aladdin. He has also played "Buttons" in Cinderella.
Biggins did not perform in pantomime in Christmas 2007 however, as he was taking part in I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, making this the first time he has not performed in a pantomime for 38 years. Biggins was eventually voted the winner of the show on 30 November 2007. Biggins returned to pantomime the following year at the Mayflower Theatre, Southampton playing the role of Buttons in Cinderella. Biggins was the winner of the television show Celebrity Come Dine With Me, first shown on Britain's Channel Four, on 15 February 2009.
Biggins hosts an annual show West End Live in London's Leicester Square.
In 2009, he played himself as a pantomime director in the BBC Two sitcom, Psychoville. At the Southport Flower Show in August 2009, Biggins launched a new hybrid tea rose called Olivia. Sales of the rose will benefit the Claire House charity. At the end of 2009 he was in pantomime in Plymouth playing Widow Twanky.
In 2010, he was a celebrity guest team captain on What Do Kids Know? along with Rufus Hound, Joe Swash and Sara Cox on Watch.
In 2010, Biggins appeared as a guest star narrator in The Rocky Horror Show at the *Belfast Grand Opera House (March and April), at the *Sunderland Empire Theatre (June)[dated info], *Southend Cliffs Pavilion (September), *Grand Canal Theatre, Dublin and also at the *Liverpool Empire Theatre (October).
In 2010, Biggins starred in Wolverhampton's Aladdin Pantomime at the Grand Theatre.
In 2010, Biggins played God in the BBC adult puppet comedy Mongrels.
In May 2011, Biggins starred in the second series of Channel 4's Celebrity Five Go To... in which the celebrities visited South Africa.[4]
In 2011, Biggins played the part of Mrs Crusoe in Cardiff's Robinson Crusoe Pantomime, in the New Theatre.
In 2012, he was cast in the film version of Ray Cooney's farce Run For Your Wife.
In December 2012, he returned to the Theatre Royal, Plymouth in Dick Whittington.
In December 2013, he filled the role of Dame Trot alongside Bob Carolgees in a production of Jack and the Beanstalk at New Theatre, Hull.[5]
In 2014, Biggins took part in cookery programme Celebrity MasterChef.
Personal life[edit]
Biggins was married to Australian actress Beatrice Norbury from 1971 to 1974.[6] He is now openly gay and formed a civil partnership with his partner, Neil Sinclair, on 30 December 2006 at Hackney Register Office.[7]
Politically, Biggins has expressed his admiration for former Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. He admits in his autobiography that he cried on the day she resigned, saying: "I'm not the most political of people. But I believe in self-reliance and getting on with the job in hand. Margaret had seemed to personify all that. And she had star quality, which of course I loved."[8] In 2014, he said: "I loved John Major, he was charismatic and charming. I've always been a Conservative, though I would have voted for John Smith. I hope we have a new Conservative leader making his way to the top now. We need a new man."[9]
On 29 March 2014, Biggins attended the "I Do To Equal Marriage" event which celebrated the introduction of same-sex marriage in England and Wales.[10]

William Botts of Rappahannock Legal Services receives prestigious award
By JESSICA ALLEN
Bill Botts got a call at 3:30 a.m. in 1986 that helped change the way obstetricians treated uninsured pregnant women in the Fredericksburg area.
Botts, an attorney with the Rappahannock Legal Services, listened to his client say that she was having contractions. She was at Mary Washington Hospital, but the doctors would not treat her.
He rushed to her aid. Botts soon learned that obstetricians with staff privileges at Mary Washington had passed a resolution stating that they would refer all indigent patients to the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond for childbirth.
High malpractice risks was one of the reasons the doctors cited.
Botts said the policy was a form of patient dumping. He filed a complaint against the hospital and later contacted federal and state investigators to review the situation.
Because of Bott's involvement, the hospital in 1987 agreed to stop the routine transfer of poor women to MCV for the delivery of their babies.
"The settlement was a win-win situation," he recalled. "Everybody started working together like the way it is today."
Cases such as these are one of the reasons why the 58-year-old Stafford County resident recently received the 2005 Legal Aid Award from the Virginia State Bar.
As the executive director of the Rappahannock Legal Services and senior attorney, Botts continues to represent the poor in all areas. His three main focus points are in housing, health and immigration, he said.
Helping the less fortunate has been his passion for the past 36 years.
Botts graduated from the University of Virginia in 1969 with a degree in aerospace engineering, but decided to go into a field that would help serve those in need.
After working two years with the Peace Corps-style program, VISTA--the precursor of today's AmeriCorps, he went to George Washington University Law School and afterward worked with legal aid services in Florida and Virginia.
Botts has been with Rappahannock Legal Services in Fredericksburg since 1979. The nonprofit organization, which receives some state and federal grants, provides free civil legal assistance to low-income families.
There are two other offices--one in Culpeper and another one in Tappahannock--with 11 staff members. There are six attorneys who work on about 1,800 cases a year. Botts has an open caseload of about 120 cases.
"I feel blessed that I am able to make a difference in the lives of people that society ignores and that they are grateful for it," he said.
Ellyn Hartzler, a homelessness prevention paralegal at Rappahannock Legal Services, said it's an honor to work with Botts.
"I can't tell you how much I appreciate that man," she said. "He works from the heart. He really is a good person for this community."

Time Machine for OS X was first introduced all the way back in 2004 in OS X Leopard. Since then it's become the best way to back up your Mac.
This doesn't mean that Time Machine is perfect, far from it. There are some issues that can come up from time to time, most notably the "Preparing Backup" issue that seemingly locks up your Time Machine backups. If your Time Machine gets stuck on this step for more than 10 minutes when you backup regularly, something's probably wrong.
Fear not, as there's a fix for this that should get you backing up again in no time.
The Issue
If you notice your Time Machine drive running for far more time than you think a regular backup should take, open up Time Machine preferences (System Preferences > Time Machine.
If something is wrong you'll probably see this screen saying Preparing backup… If that's the case follow the steps below.
The first step is to click the X button next to the progress bar to cancel the current backup. This can be found in the Time Machine preferences window we just looked at.
You'll know the backup stopped when the progress bar goes away and Preparing backup… disappears. Now that you've stopped the bad backup it's time to fix the issue.
Remove inProgress File
Open up a Finder window and navigate to your Time Machine drive. There, find the Backups.backupd folder and open it up.
Here, you'll see a list of all your most recent backups. There should be a file here that ends in .inProgress.
Select this inProgress file and delete it. The file should only be about 3-5kb, so you're not deleting a backup file, but instead a progress and change log of sorts. With the file gone you can finish up.
Click on the Apple logo in the upper left corner of your Menu Bar and choose Restart. Make sure your Time Machine drive is connected while the restart is happening.
Deleting this file and restarting with the Time Machine drive attached should force Spotlight to reindex the drive. This reindex should fix your hanging issues when trying to do a backup.
When Spotlight is done working its magic, there's one last step.
Start a New Backup Manually
Your Time Machine probably runs every hour, which means you'll have to wait to see if it worked, right? Not really. You can initiate a backup manually by clicking on the Time Machine icon in the Menu Bar and choosing Back Up Now.
Time Machine will still give you the Preparing backup… message but this time it should only last at most 5 minutes. IF you were successful you should see your backup start.
If you continue to have issues with Time Machine you may want to run Disk Utility on it to fix any drive issues.

Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser Reviews
Great Morning CleanserI use this in the morning when I just need a light wash. It doesn't dry my skin out & leaves it feeling soft. I agree with the other reviewers about not being good for removing makeup. But that said, I still think it's a great product. — 3 years, 6 months agoFeline44mom | 212 reviews
Left my skin really dry.....I don't know why this product is so hyped about. It left my skin really dry and tight after washing it off AND I have oily skin too. I liked how my skin felt really clean but I would have loved to keep some of the moisturizing properties but this just seems to strip away every ounce of moisture from my face. I always have to use a face moisturizer after this or else my face is too uncomfortably dry. — 4 months, 3 weeks agolesliepha | 181 reviews
Is Equivalent To Washing Your Face With WaterEverytime that I have used this product to wash my face I feel like my face is not really get cleansed properly. This product's consistency is too light and lotiony to really remove deep down dirt, grime or even makeup. The only positive aspects about this product is that it doesn't irritate the skin and is both france and oil free. — 4 years, 10 months ago
This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 4 people said helpful
This product is a good cleanser but it truly needs to be fragrance free!This product cleanses my sensitive, normal to oily skin very well and even takes off makeup too. however, it does have an added fragrance to it that isn't inviting at all.

Gentle...maybe a little TOO gentle.This cleans my face without irritation. But the formula is very watery and light, and it also won't do any of the extras that other cleansers do. I would not purchase this again because it just well...feels cheap and a watered down. I guess it's great if your skin was that sensitive...At least it does not dry out my skin, but neither does it do anything else at all. — 4 years, 10 months agoRavenLoudspeakr | 271 reviews

Comforting cleanserMy derm recommended this and though I always thought it was more for skin types that were dry I tried it on my acne prone skin. Wow, I was very surprised! I use retin A nightly which causes my skin to peel and sometimes become very irritated so when I used the Cetaphil for the first time and woke up with plump, soft skin I didn't know what to think. No more peeling, no more redness and best of ...read moreall, no breakouts!

November 26, 2014
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - A federal judge is ordering the state to move several thousand inmates out of two California prisons because they are at a high risk of contracting a potentially deadly airborne fungus.
U.S. District Judge Thelton Henderson on Monday ordered corrections officials to transfer most black, Filipino and medically at-risk inmates because they are more vulnerable to health problems from valley fever.
The fungal infection originates in the soil of the San Joaquin Valley, where Avenal and Pleasant Valley state prisons are located.
About 3,250 of the two prisons' 8,100 inmates fall into the categories covered by the judge's ruling.
Henderson gave the state 90 days to comply, but also said inmates who already have had the disease do not have to be moved.

Posts from Pitchers & Carafes
Help! How Do I Get Soap Taste Out of My Thermal Carafe?
I have a problem (another one!) with the thermal carafe I use every morning for my coffee. In an admirable effort to clean out the bitter, acrid taste of old coffee that tends to build up over time, my husband washed it last week with Mrs. Meyer's dish soap.
The problem? We cannot get the smell of the soap out of the carafe, and now it seeps into our coffee too! I am tired of drinking Mrs. Meyer's-flavored coffee — can anyone help?
Can You Help Me Find a Good-Looking Water Pitcher?
Good Questions
Q: I am looking for a hip cool water pitcher for my fridge. It does not need a filter since I have a sink mounted Brita. In fact I prefer it filter less. It'll just hold water.
I saw one from Japan at DWR that had charcoal and stones that supposedly gave the water miracle qualities. I don't need that but the design was great. The problem though is it held only 30 ounces. I need something that doesn't need refilling every 5 hours. Any recommendations of water pitchers with a nice aesthetic would be awesome.

Looking For: Reliable and Classy Thermal Carafe
We have a love-hate relationship with our thermal carafe. When we bought it, it was something we thought we'd use just for big parties or other occasions when we needed to keep a pot of coffee warm. We've ended up using it every day; it's a rather indispensable part of our morning coffee routine. But this particular carafe drives us crazy.

Tea Forté Tea-Over-Ice Brewing Pitcher
As much as we love the idea of Southern hospitality, with sweet tea made a day ahead and properly chilled for a night in the fridge, we are rather more prone to sudden strokes of craving for iced tea. We think of it and want it and yet are forced to drink either weak or warm tea. Enter the Tea Forté Tea-Over-Ice brewing pitcher.
Coffee Methods: The Chemex Carafe
Design Friday: Palsby Lidded Carafe
Simple carafe. This Palsby Lidded Carafe is a lovely meld of form and function. The lid seals with a silicone gasket , and it's small enough to fit in the refrigerator door. Dishwasher safe, too. Sturdy yet beautiful - the best kind of kitchen design. $35 at Canoe.

"Although further study needs to be done, it is possible that concussion education alone may not be enough to promote safe concussion behaviors in high school football players," she concluded.
The data and conclusions of research presented at medical meetings should be viewed as preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Most of the photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs, 20 to 200 megabytes in size) from the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) Many were digitized by LOC contractors using a Sinar studio back. They are adjusted by your webmaster for contrast and color in Photoshop before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here.

From new Shorpy member Paola:
Dear Shorpy,
I discovered today your website and I in the past two hours I have been looking at it. It's an amazing site. I recognize many pictures from the wonderful collection of Library of Congress. I was sick at home this weekend and I spent all my time losing myself in the library Print and Photography website. The collection is huge and your website for me is like a travel guide.
I am Italian, I live in Milano. I graduated in Bologna University in art history. I am journalist and my current work is photo editor of Geo magazine.
Thank you Shorpy for your work and keep on.
Best wishes. Paola
Grazie, Paola! Hope you are feeling better soon.
