Terahertz device could strengthen securityNovember 24, 2014 11:12 am | by Northwestern Univ. | News | Comments
We are all familiar with the hassles that accompany air travel. We shuffle through long lines, remove our shoes, and carry liquids in regulation-sized tubes. And even after all the effort, we still wonder if these procedures are making us any safer. Now a new type of security detection that uses terahertz radiation is looking to prove its promise.

New glaucoma cause discoveredSeptember 15, 2014 10:57 am | by Marla Paul, Northwestern Univ. | News | Comments
Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered a novel cause of glaucoma in an animal model, and related to their findings, are now developing an eye drop aimed at curing the disease. They believe their findings will be important to human glaucoma. A cure for glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness in the U.S., has been elusive because the basis of the disease is poorly understood.
Breakthrough for carbon nanotube solar cellsSeptember 3, 2014 11:47 am | by Amanda Morris, Northwestern Univ. | News | Comments
Lighter, more flexible and cheaper than conventional solar-cell materials, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have long shown promise for photovoltaics. But research stalled when CNTs proved to be inefficient, converting far less sunlight into power than other methods. Now a research team has created a new type of CNT solar cell that is twice as efficient as its predecessors.
Single laser stops molecular tumbling motion instantlySeptember 2, 2014 8:26 am | News | Comments
In the quantum world, making the simple atom behave is one thing, but making the more complex molecule behave is another story. Now Northwestern Univ. scientists have figured out an elegant way to stop a molecule from tumbling so that its potential for new applications can be harnessed: shine a single laser on a trapped molecule and it instantly cools to the temperature of outer space, stopping the rotation of the molecule.
Biomarker in aggressive breast cancer identifiedAugust 20, 2014 7:53 am | by Megan Fellman, Northwestern Univ. | News | Comments
Two Northwestern Univ. scientists have identified a biomarker strongly associated with basal-like breast cancer, a highly aggressive carcinoma that is resistant to many types of chemotherapy. The biomarker, a protein called STAT3, provides a smart target for new therapeutics designed to treat this often deadly cancer.
Antioxidant biomaterial promotes healingJuly 25, 2014 6:55 am | News | Comments
When a foreign material like a medical device or surgical implant is put inside the human body, the body usually reacts negatively. For the first time ever, researchers at Northwestern Univ. have created a biodegradable biomaterial that is inherently antioxidant. The material can be used to create elastomers, liquids that turn into gels, or solids for building devices that are more compatible with cells and tissues.
Technology illuminates colder objects in deep spaceJuly 10, 2014 7:42 am | News | Comments
Too cool and faint, many objects in the universe are impossible to detect with visible light. Now a Northwestern Univ. team has refined a new technology that could make these colder objects more visible, paving the way for enhanced exploration of deep space. The new technology uses a type II superlattice material called indium arsenide/indium arsenide antimonide (InAs/InAsSb).
New evidence for oceans deep in the EarthJune 13, 2014 7:59 am | by Megan Fellman, Northwestern Univ. | News | Comments
Researchers report evidence for an oceans worth of water deep beneath the U.S. Though not in the familiar liquid form—the ingredients for water are bound up in rock deep in the Earth's mantle—the discovery may represent the planet's largest water reservoir. The presence of liquid water on the surface is what makes our "blue planet" habitable, and scientists have tried to figure out just how much water may be cycling between Earth's surface.
Designing ion "highway systems" for batteriesJune 10, 2014 2:19 pm | News | Comments
Since the early 1970s, lithium has been the most popular element for batteries because of it's low weight and good electrochemical potential. But it is also highly flammable. Researchers have recently married two traditional theories in materials science that can explain how the charge dictates the structure of the material. And using this they may be able to move to other materials, such as block copolymers, for use in batteries.
Team demonstrates continuous terahertz sources at room temperatureJune 5, 2014 11:47 am | News | Comments
The potential of terahertz waves has yet to be reached because they are difficult to generate and manipulate. Current sources are large devices that require complex vacuum, lasers and cooling systems. A Northwestern Univ. team is the first to produce terahertz radiation in a simplified system. Their room-temperature, compact, continuous terahertz radiation source is six times more efficient than previous systems.
Taking the lead out of a promising solar cellMay 6, 2014 7:32 am | News | Comments
Northwestern Univ. researchers are the first to develop a new solar cell with good efficiency that uses tin instead of lead perovskite as the harvester of light. The low-cost, environmentally friendly solar cell can be made easily using "bench" chemistry, with no fancy equipment or hazardous materials.

A Northwestern Univ. study by an economist and a chemist reports that when fuel prices drove residents of São Paulo, Brazil, to mostly switch from ethanol to gasoline in their flexible-fuel vehicles, local ozone levels dropped 20%. At the same time, nitric oxide and carbon monoxide concentrations tended to go up.
Surprising material could play role in saving energyApril 18, 2014 7:56 am | by Megan Fellman, Northwestern Univ. | News | Comments
One strategy for addressing the world's energy crisis is to stop wasting so much energy when producing and using it, which can happen in coal-fired power plants or transportation. Nearly two-thirds of energy input is lost as waste heat. Now Northwestern Univ. scientists have discovered a surprising material that is the best in the world at converting waste heat to useful electricity.
Expanding particles to engineer defectsApril 8, 2014 10:41 am | by Amanda Morris, Northwestern Univ. | News | Comments

Silver liningsFebruary 25, 2014 8:48 am | by Justin H.S. Breaux, Argonne National Laboratory | News | Comments
Researchers at Argonne National Laboratory in collaboration with scientists at Northwestern Univ. are the first to grow graphene on silver which, until now, posed a major challenge to many in the field. Part of the issue has to do with the properties of silver, the other involves the process by which graphene is grown.
Molecular traffic jam makes water move faster through nanochannelsFebruary 6, 2014 12:40 pm | News | Comments
Cars inch forward slowly in traffic jams, but molecules, when jammed up, can move extremely fast. New research by Northwestern Univ. researchers finds that water molecules traveling through tiny carbon nanotube pipes do not flow continuously but rather intermittently, like stop-and-go traffic, with unexpected results.
Detecting chemicals, measuring strain with a pencil and paperJanuary 23, 2014 7:40 am | News | Comments
Sometimes solving a problem doesn't require a high-tech solution. Sometimes, you have to look no farther than your desktop. Three students from Northwestern Univ.'s McCormick School of Engineering have proven that pencils and regular office paper can be used to create functional devices that can measure strain and detect hazardous chemical vapors.
Using air transportation data to predict pandemicsDecember 13, 2013 8:53 am | News | Comments

How do you know???
If your cabin is Port or Starboard side?
Look at the deck plans.
If your cabin is on the left side (top if on the official site as the forward part is facing right), you're port. If not, you're starboard.
What's your room number? If you can't figure it out I'm sure we can. :thumbsup2
Ok I just took a look at the ship layout for the Dream and the Fantasy. The best way I can tell you is if the room number is lower than 500 (say less than 8400 on deck 8) than it most likely is on port. If it is 500 or higher (say higher than 8500 on deck 8) then it is starboard.
Edit: FYI I just checked the Wonder and this pattern follows.
Cabin numbers on all the DCL ships follow a logical pattern. They are all 4 digits long with the first digit being the deck number. The second digit will be either a 0, 1, 5 or 6. The 0's & 1's are port side, while 5's & 6's are Starboard. The last two digits are assigned sequentially from the front (bow) to the back (aft or stern) of the ship. :teacher:
This should make it easier.
Thank you so much for all the quick responses. Figured out we are Port side. So my next question is.. When the shoot off the fireworks what side of the ship will they be on, and what side of the ship pulls into dock at Castaway Cay? :)
Fireworks are off the Starboard side of the ship.
Most of the time (but not always) the ship backs into CC so the Starboard side has the better view there.

The original video has been deleted and is no longer available. Tough road conditions make life difficult for drivers in W. Mich.ALLEGAN COUNTY, Mich. (NEWSCHANNEL 3) - Tough weather conditions in Allegan County caused issues for drivers--both on and off of the highways--all day long.But the biggest problem area was definitely US-131.Newschannel 3 talked to several drivers battling the conditions.Many spots were hit or miss, as some areas were clear and dry, with no problems.But without warning, you'd hit white out conditions, as the wind helped make driving conditions dangerous."Towards, you know, Portland and going toward Lansing there, and coming across M-6, it's all pure white out. You can't see anything," explained driver Nick Schmuck.As if the snow and ice weren't enough to deal with, Mother Nature's thrown in high winds gusting as high as 60 miles an hour.For our crew, and other drivers, just trying to keep the car on the highway was a challenge."With the wind being so heavy, it kind of, you know, pushes everybody off. They don't know how to expect that, they don't know how to brace for that," Schmuck said.That was the case for several drivers, resulting in several accidents.In some cases, US-131 was at a crawl or even a standstill while crews worked to clear crashes."I can see the highway from my house, and for three hours that traffic was stopped," said driver Dawn Whitlatch of the backups.Some drivers tell Newschannel 3 that it was because of the news of all of the accidents that they decided not to get on the highway; but even the main roads had similar issues."It was slippery," said Cheryl Huisman. "I came down 146th Avenue and it's all ice. My van started kind of sliding so you just kind of slow down and you take your time."The highway may look fine, and in many areas it is, but just a few feet ahead, you could find yourself in white out conditions.

We used the suggested Trader Joe's Dark Morello Cherries and really liked the resulting filling (and 3 jars make a REALLY full pie!) In the future we will probably use a regular pie crust lattice top instead of the crumble top given in the recipe, tho.
I used fresh Bing and Ranier cherries for a dramatic colour in the pie. Sugar was to taste, about half of the recipe, to account for using sweet fruit. I was out of oranges, so used orange liquor instead. Turned out fantastic -- my wife says it's the best cherry pie I've made.
It is cherry season. I made it exactly, except I used fresh cherries. I found it far too sweet, but will make it again, using far less sugar in the pie. I used a 9" pie dish but there was not enough crumble to spread over. Double it next time, taking care over the sugar. For the pie, it would have been far easier to mix the 5 ingredients and then combine with cherries. On the whole I was rather disappointed, but as I just love cherries, I will try again. NEXT year.
Made this last weekend and it is wonderful. I don't ever have bourbon in the house as we don't drink it. I used Grand Marnier and cut back on the sugar by half. I used slivered almonds rather than sliced because that's what I keep in my freezer. Other than that, made as directed in a deep dish pie pan and no bubble over at all! I will definitely make this again.
I used frozen dark sweet cherries and used Licor 43 instead of the bourbon. (I also cut the sugar in the pie to 1/4 cup.) Best pie ever and I will just keep mum on the calories.
Can't believe that Momcatusa is the first one to question the calories. That was my first thought also. Would love to make but that seems a bit excessive and my guests may not be happy.
Is it really possible that there are 1,063 calories per slice? I want to make this pie in the worst way, and glancing through the ingredients, it hardly seems possible that there could be that many calories - BUT! Can anyone check this and advise me?
I made this yesterday to bring to a friend's house. Followed the recipe nearly exactly - I used jarred sour cherries and crushed almonds rather than sliced. Simple to put together and rave reviews all round, I would definitely make this again.
This was very good. I have made it twice. The first time I couldn't find the TJ's cherries and used frozen cherries and it was very expensive. The second time I went to TJ's and got the cherries requested and it was very good as well, the cherry selection didn't seem to make a difference in the pie (just in my wallet, the large jar at Trader Joe's we about 1/2 the price of buying frozen). I also tried adding a bit of cardamom to the crumble and that also was very tasty. I didn't have the problem with it overflowing as someone else had stated. I also saved the cherry juice for mixed drinks:)
This was delicious! I unfortunately couldn't find any 27oz jars of cherries, so I picked up 5 15oz cans instead. Also, I ended up doing 3 cans of tart and 2 cans of dark, sweet cherries (the store was low) and the color combination turned out really pleasing as well. The crumble on top made an amazing combination with the juicy cherries and the flaky crust on bottom. I used http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Basic-Flaky-Pie-Crust-101858 this pie crust recipe, and although an arduous task, it was the best I've ever made. I was making it as a test drive for Thanksgiving and I'm making it again tomorrow morning. I know everyone will love it!

2013 CMA Awards Winners – Full List
The 2013 CMA Awards winners earn respect and recognition from their fans and country music peers, plus a really cool, really heavy glass trophy to put on their mantel, tour bus or coffee table. Tim McGraw won two CMAs before the 2013 broadcast even started on Nov. 6. His wins for Music Video and Musical Event of the Year were not surprising. 'Highway Don't Care' was also up for Single of the Year.
Win a Guitar Signed by Toby Keith
Toby Keith's seventeenth studio album 'Drinks After Work' is now in stores and at digital retailers, featuring the title track and his latest single 'Shut Up and Hold On.'

Toby Keith, 'Shut Up and Hold On' [Listen]
Toby Keith's new song is full of attitude, but that's assumed, given the title. 'Shut Up and Hold' on will remind fans of 'Made in America,' Keith's last No. 1 hit, but the production of this bluesy rocker is grittier and more complex.
Album Spotlight: Billy Currington, 'We Are Tonight'
Billy Currington adds a pinch of rock, two tablespoons of R&B and a heavy dose of soul to his new 'We Are Tonight' album. The result is a project that tastes different, but remains true to a sound he's cultivated over the last decade.

Keith Urban, Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift looked great, but all three came with looks fans have seen before. Newcomers like Scotty McCreery and Easton Corbin showed the style this season calls for.
2013 ACM Awards Winners – Full List
The big 2013 ACM Awards winners in Las Vegas were Miranda Lambert and Luke Bryan. Lambert took home three trophies, including Female Vocalist of the Year and Single and Song of the Year for 'Over You.' The singer couldn't help but become emotional as she accepted her fifth straight Female Vocalist trophy.
2013 Grammy Awards Best Dressed Pictures
The biggest night in music is also one of the biggest nights in fashion, and the 2013 Grammy Awards did not disappoint. The best dressed artists from the red carpet took chances, but didn't go too far with a good idea. Country music's best dressed stayed on the right side of the line between exciting and eyesore.
2013 Grammy Awards Worst Dressed Pictures
Country music's hottest stars walked the red carpet at the 2013 Grammy Awards, and while most shined, a few failed to impress on music's biggest night. Pictures of the worst dressed country stars from the 2013 Grammys don't quite compare to the worst dressed from the pop world -- did you see the moon man? -- but these three outfits were still less than flattering.
2012 American Country Awards Winners – Full List
Miranda Lambert presented the first of the 2012 American Country Awards winners with guitar on Monday (Dec. 10) night, but later came back to accept three of her own at the star-studded event. However, it was Luke Bryan's night to shine, as the 'I Don't Want This Night to End' singer won nine total ACAs, including two for his radio successes.

Hi we are about the same age. I'm 46 going to school at ECC. I have thought about LCC ( my sister's daughter attends there) WKU or even an LPN program if I don't get into the RN program. I don't want to waste time just get in and get it done!!! I don't take tests well. I know my stuff and then just go blank when it counts, SO FRUSTRATING. thanks for the reply and good luck you sound like you've got it all together.
- 0Mar 7, '04 by sb22Hi! I graduated from Midway with my ADN in 1995. Nursing school is tough but get to know your classmates and study together. I started as a CNA at a nursing home, (because they paid for my training) but the pay was the same as being a cashier at Rite Aid at the time. I recommend that you go to a nursing school that will adequately prepare you for the "real world". My class had a 100% pass rate of the NCLEX! I have worked with nurses that barely had an understanding of anatomy let alone physiology and that scares me.
You have to make the decisions that are best for you and your family, but remember also that nursing will not be easy and you should be as prepared as you can be for yourself and your patients.
Good Luck!
- 0Mar 19, '04 by RNNRHi my first time posting! I've been in the engineering field for about 4 years and finally decided to give it up and do what I really want to do. Actually put in my two weeks notice today!
I am starting the BSN at Northern Kentucky U this fall, just taking the general classes first. Have not been accepted to actual Nursing school yet. I applied all over Cincinnati to the two year programs and all have waiting lists so I am just going to start at NKU. Hopefully some good A&P grades will give me a better chance next time.
I am taking the CNA class in two weeks at Great Oaks so I can get experience while I am in school.
Does anyone else work as a CNA? if so Where? and what do you think about it? Whats the pay? Also any hints on getting accepted into the shcools would help. Feels like i'm playing the lottery when I apply..
- 0Apr 29, '04 by *nightshift*I've been an LPN for 15 years and have regretted not going RN from the git-go. Both schools are intense, but the logic is really different. Getting LPN first is not,in my opinion, worth the time or money.

College football has changed a lot since 1998. That was the first time Kansas State was a serious contender for college football's national championship.
However, the comparisons for Kansas State between 1998 and 2012 are strikingly similar. K-State fans have savored every minute of Bill Snyder's coaching renaissance.
In '98, K-State featured a Heisman Trophy candidate in Michael Bishop, known more for his running than passing. The Wildcats were considered the third-best team in '98 behind a top-ranked SEC team (Tennessee) and a Pac-10 contender featuring a high-powered offense (UCLA) and a questionable defense.
In 2012, K-State features ...

Bolin Marketing And Tribe Global Partner With Survival International To Raise Awareness Of Earth's Most Threatened Tribe
MINNNEAPOLIS, Feb. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Human rights organization Survival International has launched a worldwide advertising campaign to raise awareness of the plight of Brazil's Awa tribe, the Earth's most threatened tribe. The ad campaign, entitled "Stop Complaining," was developed by Minneapolis-based Bolin Marketing, part of Tribe Global, a global network of independent advertising and communication agencies.
"We were honored to be part of this opportunity to raise awareness of the threatened Awa tribe," said Todd Bolin, CEO of Bolin Marketing. "Survival International viewed Tribe Global as the perfect partner for this assignment because of our global footprint and the fact that we are all extremely passionate about bringing attention to this issue."
The campaign tells the harrowing story of Karapiru, an Awa man who witnessed the massacre of his brothers, sisters, children and wife at the hands of gunmen. Karapiru fled to the forest, where he lived alone and on the run for 10 years.
The ad reads, "For ten years he (Karapiru) ran alone, sleeping in treetops, eating small birds and honey. Finally reunited with his Awa tribe, he discovered that, incredibly, his son had survived the massacre. His people still live under the threat of extinction due to violent attacks and the theft of their land by loggers and ranchers. Reconsider your problems compared with the plight of the Awa. Please. Send a message. Send hope. The Awa can be saved."The ad supports Survival International's urgent campaign to save the Awa. Supporters around the world are using the campaign's awaicon to spread the message, and nearly 50,000 protest letters have been sent to Brazilian authorities. Stephen Corry, director of Survival International, said, "Karapiru's tragic story is but one of many – most go undocumented. Only the Brazilian government has the power to end these brutal attacks on its tribal citizens. How? By evicting illegal invaders from the Awa's land before it's too late." The campaign relies on pro bono media placement support. It is scheduled to appear in magazines such as Vanity Fair, Vogue, Easy Living, American Express Magazine, House & Garden and many others.

Sonic Foundry, MPI Foundation Unveil New Tools To Help Planners Understand The Value Of Hybrid
MADISON, Wis., Sept. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 90 percent of meeting professionals exceed their goals through hybrid meetings, according to new research supported by Sonic Foundry, Inc. (NASDAQ: SOFO), the trusted market leader for video management and event, academic and enterprise webcasting, and the Meeting Professionals International Foundation.
Through qualitative interviews and a quantitative survey completed by 1,800 participants, including meeting professionals, event delegates, technology vendors and consultants, the research report provides a comprehensive snapshot of hybrid events, as planners focus on the growing importance of the trend.
"This research clearly supports what we have known but lacked scientific data to support. By strategically using hybrid technology, the planner can expand the reach of their event which increases the ability to drive business results – a far more valuable asset than merely controlling costs," said Cindy D'Aoust, COO and interim CEO of Meeting Professionals International.
MPI created a special knowledge center at www.mpiweb.org/hybrid which features the full report and toolkit (free to MPI members and available for purchase for non-members) along with other free resources, including on-demand presentations such as " Creating the New Connectivity Through Hybrid Meetings" from the MPI WEC 2012 annual conference.
Key findings from the research include:
- 93 percent of planners surveyed meet or exceed their objectives when organizing a hybrid event
- 70 percent of respondents say hybrid meetings will be an important part of meetings in the future
- 50 percent of respondents say they record their conference content for on-demand access, a strong indication that organizations recognize the value of sharing content with those unable to attend in-person
"The survey results pointed to a gap between what attendees value and what meeting planners are actually doing," said Samuel J. Smith, researcher and president of Interactive Meeting Technology. "Sonic Foundry and MPI invested in identifying what successful planners are doing, and also in developing a roadmap to show how others can be successful as well."

Worldwide spending on information security will reach US$71.1bn in 2014, an increase of 7.9% year over year, with the data loss prevention segment recording the fastest growth at 18.9%. Total information security spending will grow by 8.2% in 2015 to reach US$76.9bn.1
By 2015, roughly 10% of overall IT security enterprise product capabilities are forecasted to be delivered in the cloud. A significant number of security markets are being impacted by new delivery models. This is resulting in the growth of cloud-based security services, which are transforming the way security is supplied and consumed by customers. More than 30% of security controls deployed to the small or midsize business (SMB) segment is expected to be cloud-based by 2015. Regulatory compliance has been a major factor driving spending on security in the last three years, particularly in the US.1
Software-defined networking (SDN) continues to gain ground within the broader enterprise and cloud service provider markets for datacenter networking. The worldwide SDN market for the enterprise and cloud service provider segments is expected to grow from US$960mn in 2014 to over US$8bn by 2018, representing a robust CAGR of 89.4%. This forecast for the SDN ecosystem includes in-use physical network infrastructure, controller and network-virtualization software, SDN network and security services and related applications, and SDN-related professional services. Software-defined networking is an innovative architectural model that is capable of delivering automated provisioning, network virtualization, and network programmability to data centers and enterprise networks.2

Releases: Expanded View
Exhibition Explores Van Gogh's Deep Immersion Into Nature
Philadelphia Is The Only U.S. Venue For This Major Traveling Exhibition: Van Gogh Up Close, February 1-May 6, 2012
This is a Philadelphia Museum of Art press release.
"I…am always obliged to go and gaze at a blade of grass, a pine-tree branch, an ear of wheat, to calm myself," Vincent van Gogh wrote in a letter to his sister, Wilhemina, in July of 1889. An artist of exceptional intensity, not only in his use of color and exuberant application of paint but also in his personal life, van Gogh was powerfully and passionately drawn to nature. From 1886, when van Gogh left Antwerp for Paris, to 1890 when he ended his own life in Auvers, van Gogh's feverish artistic experimentation and zeal for the natural world propelled him to radically refashion his still lifes and landscapes. With an ardent desire to engage the viewer with the strength of the emotions he experienced before nature, van Gogh radically altered and at times even abandoned traditional pictorial strategies in order to create still lifes and landscapes the likes of which had never before been seen.
Van Gogh Up Close, a major exhibition organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the National Gallery of Canada, presents a group of the artist's most daring and innovative works that broke with the past and dramatically altered the course of modern painting. Made between 1886 and 1890 in Paris, Arles, Saint-Rémy, and Auvers, the works in the exhibition concentrate on an important and previously overlooked aspect of van Gogh's work: "close-ups" that bring familiar subjects such as landscape elements, still lifes, and flowers into the extreme foreground of the composition or focus on them in ways that are entirely unexpected and without precedent. These landscapes and still lifes have not previously been seen together or identified before as critical to our understanding of van Gogh's artistic achievement.
Van Gogh Up Close, includes major loans from museums and private collections in Europe, North America, and Japan, and will be seen in the United States only in Philadelphia (February 1-May 6, 2011) before traveling to the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa. The exhibition is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue and will offer a wide range of programs, including a lecture on the artist by exhibition co-curator Joseph J. Rishel; a conversation about the legacy of van Gogh with a panel of contemporary artists; a film series; and a lecture and book signing with Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith, co-authors of the recent biography Van Gogh: The Life (February 12, 2 p.m.).
The exhibition will feature over 70 works, including 45 paintings by van Gogh and more than 30 comparative works such as Japanese woodblock prints by Utagawa Hiroshige and Hayashi Roshü; European prints and drawings by Jean Corot, Camille Pissarro, and Jacob Ruisdael; and photographs by Frederick Evans, August Kotzsch, and others. Van Gogh was an avid collector of Japanese and European prints and drawings by artists whose aesthetic devices served as sources of inspiration for him. While van Gogh was loudly dismissive of photography, the medium offers intriguing parallels with his work and it is possible that van Gogh would have been fascinated by contemporary landscape photographs.
"Van Gogh Up Close explores an important facet of van Gogh's work that underscores his importance as a path-finding modern artist," comments Timothy Rub, the George D. Widener Director and CEO of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. "In seeking to share the intensity of his emotional response to the world around him as directly as possible, van Gogh took the traditional methods making pictures and changed the rules."
After unsuccessfully pursuing careers as an art dealer, teacher, and pastor, Vincent van Gogh (1853 –1890), prompted by his brother Theo, began to study art in 1880. In the Netherlands in 1885, he completed his first major works using a palette of browns, greens, grays, and blacks. A year later, his work underwent a striking shift when, arriving in Paris, he was confronted for the first time by the Impressionist paintings of Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, and by the new pointillist works of Seurat and others. These progressive artists inspired him to lighten his palette and modernize his brushstroke. At roughly the same time, van Gogh began to collect Japanese woodblock prints, fascinated by their vibrant color, high horizon lines, tilting perspectives, and truncated or unusually cropped edges. These influences encouraged van Gogh to experiment with a radical treatment of field and space, flattening and compressing the picture plane in his paintings in order to create a sense of shifting perspective and tension.
Working initially in the apartment he shared with Theo in Montmartre, van Gogh painted a series of still lifes of flowers and fruit such as Still Life with Pears (1888, Gemäldegalerie Neue Meister, Dresden) and Sunflowers (1887, Metropolitan Museum of Art). In these works, objects are often seen from above yet are placed very close to the picture plane in a tightly cropped space which provides no clues to their context or setting. Pieces of fruit appear to tip forward and threaten to roll out of the picture. Van Gogh's landscapes such as Undergrowth (1887, Centraal Museum, Utrecht) stress the abundance of grasses and flowers by cropping out the horizon.
By the spring of 1888, troubled by intense personal anxieties, van Gogh sought refuge from city life and moved to Arles in the south of France. There he hoped to emulate Japanese artists, working in close communion with nature and studying "a single blade of grass" in order to better comprehend nature as a whole. Landscapes such as Field with Flowers Near Arles (1888, Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam) reflect a Japanese influence in their high horizon lines and bold colors. Here van Gogh began to adopt a more structured, deliberate treatment of his subjects.
The open compositions that van Gogh created in Arles gave way to a series of landscapes painted in Saint-Rémy, where van Gogh had committed himself to an asylum late in 1888 after his break with Gauguin, and continued in Auvers outside Paris, where van Gogh ultimately took his life in 1890. In these densely packed compositions, the artist evoked the immediacy and closeness of his surroundings as he continued to develop an intimate, close up focus. The exhibition culminates in an audacious series of still lifes which were painted outdoors and take as their subject an extremely close view of a clump of iris, an upward gaze through a tangle of almond branches, or the vibrant patterning of a Death's-head moth. In these works van Gogh closes in on his subject, dramatically reducing the depth of field and maximizing the expressive impact of his brushwork and color.
"Studying Van Gogh's close-ups is essential to understanding the artist's development, as they demonstrate a visual strategy that has been touched upon in scholarship but has not been systematically separated and addressed," notes Jennifer Thompson, the Philadelphia Museum's Gloria and Jack Drosdick Associate Curator of European Painting and Sculpture before 1900 and the Rodin Museum. "By exploring this astonishing dimension of the artist's achievements, we will establish a greater understanding of the scope of his work."
Van Gogh Up Close is organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, where it will travel following the Philadelphia venue. In Philadelphia the exhibition is curated by Joseph J. Rishel, The Gisela and Dennis Alter Senior Curator of European Painting before 1900, and Jennifer A. Thompson, The Gloria and Jack Drosdick Associate Curator of European Painting before 1900. They have developed the exhibition in close association with Cornelia Homburg, Independent Scholar and Guest Curator, and Anabelle Kienle, Assistant Curator of European and American Art, at the National Gallery of Canada.
This exhibition is made possible by GlaxoSmithKline and Sun Life Financial. The exhibition is supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities. Additional support is provided by the Robert Lehman Foundation, The Pew Charitable Trusts, The Annenberg Foundation Fund for Major Exhibitions, The Kathleen C. and John J. F. Sherrerd Fund for Exhibitions, the National Endowment for the Arts, The Women's Committee of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Barbara B. and Theodore R. Aronson, David and Margaret Langfitt, Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Linck, Mr. and Mrs. John M. Thalheimer, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Abramson, The Arcadia Foundation, Mrs. Eugene W. Jackson, and other generous individuals. Promotional support is provided by NBC 10 WCAU and Amtrak. The catalogue was funded, in part, by the Netherland-America Foundation.
Van Gogh Up Close will be accompanied by a catalogue available in English and French editions, published by the National Gallery of Canada. Featuring approximately 200 full color illustrations, the catalogue will include six essay contributions. The introductory discussion by van Gogh expert Cornelia Homburg defines what is meant by "close-up" and explores the definition in relation to van Gogh's admiration for Japanese art. Joseph J. Rishel, the Philadelphia Museum of Art's Gisela and Dennis Alter Curator of European Painting before 1900 and Senior Curator of the John G. Johnson Collection and the Rodin Museum examines Van Gogh's interest in early Dutch and German art and the ways in which it influenced his later work with regard to subject matter, composition, and perspective. Jennifer Thompson looks at the Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist painting being done in Paris in the 1880s and how experiments with optical space and surface patterning provide a context for van Gogh's close-ups. Other essays address van Gogh's correspondence, the influence of 19th century photography, and van Gogh's approach to mark-making. The catalogue will include an exhibition checklist, and an illustrated chronology. Color reproductions of all the close-ups made by van Gogh will be an integral part of the catalogue, enabling works not included in the exhibition to be a full part of the exploration of this phenomenal aspect of van Gogh's career.

June 23 (Bloomberg) -- A "consensus" bet that gold will rise is one of the largest risks facing hedge funds because investors may suffer losses across their holdings if the bet sours, said Kenneth Heinz, president of Hedge Fund Research Inc.
"One of the biggest risks that I observe comes from the very big consensus trades that everyone thinks are good ones," Heinz said today at the GAIM hedge-fund conference in Monaco. "The long gold position" is a risk "that investors should be aware of," he said.
Gold climbed to a record last month and is heading for its 11th year of gains, the longest winning streak since at least the 1920s. Concerns that rising inflation, Europe's sovereign debt crisis and low interest rates have attracted hedge-fund managers such as John Paulson to invest in the metal.
Marc Faber, publisher of the Gloom, Boom & Doom report, said in an interview today that he plans to continue buying gold even though it's likely to decline over the next three months.
George Soros is among some investors who have curtailed their bullish wagers on gold. The billionaire sold 99 percent of his bullion-backed SPDR Gold trust assets and all 5 million shares in the iShares Gold Trust in the first quarter, according to a May filing with U.S. regulators.
Gold for August delivery fell $13.90, or 0.9 percent, to $1,539 an ounce on the Comex in New York as of 8 a.m. today after the U.S. Federal Reserve dampened speculation it would expand measures to stimulate the economy.

When I've tackled the thorny issue of pupils getting access to their personal folders from home over the years, people always tell me that I need to use moodle. Well, I've bitten the bullet and built up a moodle box yesterday, it's on a server 2003 machine and has Apache, MySQL and PHP installed using the appropriately named EasyPHP.
From first looks, moodle looks very similar to sharepoint, which is a bit of a bummer as that's of no use in allowing folder access, it merely allows you to upload certain documents to the webspace and then download them again at home - or vice/versa. Can someone talk me through what I need to do to allow access to their personal folders?
