Representatives of national regulatory authorities (NRAs) for medicines and biologicals met on Feb. 7 with PAHO Director Carissa F. Etienne to discuss issues including strategic cooperation and regulatory harmonization; regional mechanisms for controlling substandard, counterfeit, and misleadingly labeled medical products; and integration among regulatory authorities
"If we want to achieve universal health coverage, we must continue to strengthen our regulatory systems to guarantee a reliable supply of safe and effective medicines and technologies," said Dr. Etienne.
During a Feb. 6-7 technical meeting at PAHO headquarters, representatives of NRAs highlighted their commitment to promoting best practices in regulation through such mechanisms as the Regional Platform on Access and Innovation for Health Technologies (PRAIS), a virtual platform that allows users to share experiences and cooperate in areas including essential medicines, biologicals, and diagnostics.
Participants in the technical meeting made progress on the development of a cooperation strategy and on the promotion and dissemination in other regions of regulatory models from the Americas. This week's meeting is part of efforts called for in the 2010 PAHO Directing Council resolution "Strengthening National Regulatory Authorities for Medicines and Biologicals."
Regulatory authorities represented at this week's meeting included the National Administration for Drugs, Food and Medical Technology (ANMAT), the National Agency for Health Surveillance (ANVISA), the Center for State Control of Drugs and Medical Devices (CECMED), the National Institute for Drug and Food Surveillance (INVIMA) and the Federal Commission for Protection against Health Risks (COFEPRIS), as well as Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

5 Lessons Bad Movies Can Teach Bloggers
If you're a movie buff, you've probably sat down and watched at least a few bad movies.
But as tempting as it is to try and forget the bad movies, they often times offer important lessons that we can carry into other areas, including blogging. Thus, it's important to take a moment and study them, look at why they were bad and what, if anything, could have been done to fix them.
Why is it that one multi-million dollar film created by industry veterans can be torture to sit through but a low-budget feature from an unknown can inspire, terrify or incite laughter? Why is it that movies we think should be bad, including b movies and silly comedies, can be so entertaining while movies that aim for something higher can often be so difficult to sit through?
While much of what movies you do and do not enjoy will come down to personal taste, there are some lessons that are more or less universal and they can be easily applied to blogging. With that in mind, here are just five of those lessons and what they mean for you. Read More

Midwest Living Review
At JB Hook's, fresh seafood comes with a view. However, you can't reach it by boat.
JB Hook's may not be boat-accessible, but the view is great because it sits up on a bluff. We dined at one of their tables by the window and could see out for miles. They serve lunch and dinner, with a focus on fresh seafood (although they do offer everything from chicken to steaks). We had their steak and lobster meal -- it's wonderful! Lunch from $7.99 and dinner from $19.99. No reservations accepted.

The 100 best horror films: 100-91
The best horror films, as voted for by more than 100 experts including Simon Pegg and Roger Corman
Come and See (1985)
Dir Elim Klimov (Aleksey Kravchenko, Olga Mironova, Liubomiras Lauciavicius)
The horror of war.
Inspired in part by 'I Come from the Burning Village', a collection of interviews with survivors of the Nazi atrocities committed against the peasant farmers of Belarus in the early 1940s, Klimov's savage masterpiece influenced Spielberg's 'Saving Private Ryan', and Malick's 'The Thin Red Line', though neither deserves to be mentioned in the same sentence. Separated from the partisan soldiers he joined after leaving behind his mother and two sisters, 12-year-old Florya (Kravchenko), together with pretty teenage peasant girl Glasya (Miranova), wanders aimlessly and struggles merely to survive. Deafened by an explosion, Florya bears silent, wide-eyed witness to the genocidal near-annihilation of the civilian population. Cinematographer Alexei Rodionov's fluid Steadicam draws us into the black heart of the horror, which is also painted on Florya's increasingly haggard face. J G Ballard called it 'one of the greatest war films ever made', and indeed it topped Time Out's top 50 WW2 films list. NFRead more
Braindead (1992)
Dir Peter Jackson (Timothy Balme, Diana Peñalver, Elizabeth Moody)
Abbott and Costello meet The Evil Dead.
At the time, Jackson's satirical splatterfest was by far the goriest movie ever made (at least in the English language), yet the tone is gruesomely funny rather than violent or cruel. The innocent love affair between 25-year-old virgin Lionel (Timothy Balme) and the lovely Paquita (Diana Peñalver) is interrupted when his domineering mother is bitten by a Sumatran Rat-Monkey and transforms – through several putrescent stages – into a hideous zombie with a craving for human flesh. Most of the laugh-out-loud humour derives from the hilarious incongruity between the sedate suburban setting, with its polite ladies who lunch, and the blood-drenched spectacle of the loving couple fending off a slavering horde of flesh-eaters with household and garden implements – most iconically and most effectively, that great Kiwi invention, the fly-mo. NFRead more
Flesh for Frankenstein (1973)
Dir Paul Morrissey (Joe Dallesandro, Udo Kier)
They're alive! And they're at it!
Andy Warhol was a producer on this camp, incredibly gory and oh-so-loose spin on Mary Shelley's creation. Kier plays a Serbian version of Baron Frankenstein, the creator of a new 'Adam and Eve' who are dead set on procreating furiously in order to produce a whole new human race. The Factory's favourite boy, Dallesandro, steps up to satisfy the baron's over-sexed sister and increase the film's flesh quotient. It's one of those films the midnight-movie slot was made for. It was initially released in 3D after being cut to secure even an 'R' rating in the US, and the 3D effects mainly consist of people's innards swimming in pools of blood. Memorable line: 'You can't say that you know life until you've fucked death in the gall bladder.' DCRead more
I Walked with a Zombie (1943)
Dir Jacques Tourneur (Francis Dee, Tom Conway, Christine Gordon, James Ellison)
That voodoo that you do.
Set on a West Indian island, Tourneur's follow-up to 'Cat People (1942)' (see number 29) offers a febrile mix of Caribbean superstition, family secrets and women in white nightgowns sleepwalking in moonlight. Brought from Canada to care for a plantation manager's invalid wife, impressionable young nurse Betsy (Dee) is baffled by her patient's vague demeanour and nocturnal wanderings. Although aware that a secret is being kept from her, Betsy determines to snap the woman out of her catatonia, if necessary by secretly taking her to a voodoo ceremony. To the incessant, rhythmic sound of drums, Tourneur stages a series of elegant, fluid set pieces charged with sickly fear and moral ambivalence. NFRead more
Cronos (1993)
Dir Guillermo del Toro (Federico Luppi, Margarita Isabel, Ron Perlman)
To eternity and beyond.
Del Toro's first feature is steeped in the lifeblood of Gothic lore, yet utterly modern in its horror sensibility. When an ageing Mexican junk shop owner, Jesus Gris (Luppi), stoops to lick a drop of blood from the pure white marble floor of a toilet – a scene at once elegant, shocking and pitiable – we know we are in the hands of a true original. Gris is rejuvenated by an ancient mechanical device which, in return for regular transfusions of his blood, promises eternal life. More time, therefore, to spend with his beloved granddaughter, Mercedes (Isabel). But terminally ill industrialist Angel De la Guardia (Perlman) also covets the vampiric device. Even more impressive than Del Toro's fertile imagination and consummate technique is the film's heartfelt compassion. NFRead more
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)
Dir Philip Kaufman (Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Leonard Nimoy)
Vote for the green party.
It's gratifying to see both 'Body Snatchers' movies on this list: Don Siegel's 1956 original may be punchier and more bracing, but Philip 'The Right Stuff' Kaufman's '70s remake is funnier and more self-aware. While the original movie was (depending on who you believe) an examination of either McCarthyist conformity or encroaching communism, the remake takes things into weirder, more oblique territory, lampooning the fallout from the '60s ideal with its lentils-and-beansprouts nature freaks and its bandwagon-jumping psychotherapy converts. Plus it's an absolutely terrific horror movie: the scene where Sutherland smashes up a gestating pod-person with a rake is gruesome as hell, but it's that famously devastating closing shot that really chills the blood. THRead more
God Told Me To (1976)
Dir Larry Cohen (Tony Lo Bianco, Deborah Raffin)
Jesus loves you… a little too much.
The horror game can be tough. Larry Cohen is without question one of the most inventive, idiosyncratic American writer-directors of the 1970s, his outstanding oeuvre spanning low-budget social commentary, low-rent blaxploitation and a handful of the most politically engaged horror films ever made. Yet here we are, 35 years later, and he manages to scrape one film into our Top 100. 'God Told Me To' is without question one of darkest, sharpest, oddest films on this list, a tale of serial murder, religious mania and alien abduction shot on some of mid-'70s New York's least salubrious streets. Cohen deserves to be mentioned alongside Carpenter and Craven in the horror canon – and this might be his masterpiece, though 'It's Alive', 'Q: The Winged Serpent' and 'The Stuff' all run it close.

Threads (1984)
Dir Mick Jackson (Karen Meagher, Reece Dinsdale, David Brierly)
Duck and cover.
Originally aired on British TV during the mid '80s, Mick Jackson's docudrama is a sobering, scary and highly realistic hypothetical account of what might happen following a breakdown of society perpetrated, in this instance, by a nuclear strike on Sheffield. The sense of impending doom is palpable as the city's citizens watch TV news reports about the collapse in relations between Russia and the West. Panic buying becomes looting as humanity begins to adopt a dog-eat-dog mentality. Then the obliteration begins – and it's pretty ghastly. Small wonder 'Threads' is in this list; while not strictly part of the horror genre, it provokes a raft of similar emotions – only here you're aware that this can really happen. Powerful, thought-provoking stuff. DARead more
Inferno (1980)
Dir Dario Argento (Leigh McCloskey, Irene Miracle, Alida Valli, Daria Nicolodi)
Burn that mother down.
Horror cinema at its most baroque: a simple libretto is embroidered with elaborate, flowing camera movements, abstract blocks of colour, unsettling sound effects and soundtrack composer Keith Emerson's thunderous rock variations on Verdi. Drawing, like 'Suspiria' before it, on Thomas de Quincey's mythology of The Three Mothers, it explores the long-distance relationship between Rose (Miracle) and her brother Mark (McClosky), who inhabit apartment houses in New York and Rome. These buildings were built to house The Mother of Darkness and The Mother of Tears. Miracle's early dip into the muffled world of a flooded sub-basement immediately immerses us in the dreamlike narrative, one that replicates the free associative fluidity of the unconscious. Argento's best work is far behind him, but this alone justifies his cult reputation.NFRead more
The Fog (1979)
Dir John Carpenter (Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, Janet Leigh)
Play misty for me.
A couple of years after scaring the bejesus out of us with 'Halloween', John Carpenter collaborated with regular screenwriting partner Debra Hill for this classic chiller about a mysterious bank of glowing fog that sweeps over a Californian seaside town, unleashing a torrent of frights perpetrated by the zombified ghosts of some rather miffed, vengeful mariners who perished just off the coast some 100 years earlier. No horror film worth its salt would be fulfilling its duty without a suitably scary location and here, of course, it's the big white solitary lighthouse where Carpenter's former wife Barbeau (playing a radio DJ) is so thoroughly terrorised. You really must check out the original trailer for this film; the voice-over is classically bad. DARead more
This is Really very Good List.. Awesome. I love Horror Movies.. Great I am very Happy Thanks.
I'm not a fan of slasher movies and gore. Hate them, to be frank. Predictable and boring. The Halloween difference is suspense - Carpenter's ability to tap into our collective insecurities, and then the score ropes you in like a noose around your neck. Examples of great moments... the scene where the Dr. is driving to the institution, sound of rain and wiper blades on the windshield, and then you see the patients wandering around in the dark in their white gowns. Truly, creepy. It's unpredictable, yet not beyond our comprehension. Then of course there are all the scenes where Michael appears, then disappears - car outside school, hedges, clothesline. Less believable, but adds that necessary ghostly quality of stealth and super-human abilities. Ranks up there for me with Rear Window, The Shining, and Silence of the Lambs. Wife and I watch it every year on Halloween. I think I also love the non-tech 1970's quality. Nowadays, they can do anything on film, but that is always in my head the movie loses something as a result. For example - look at all those creatures attacking the castle in Lord of the Rings... I start wondering how long it took the graphics team to design that because it's so incredibly unbelievable (yep, my mind unfortunately goes there!). I would be fine if I never have to watch another movie with fictitious creatures or dragons or vampires. I had given up on zombies until The Walking Dead redeemed that genre. Good suspense has some foundation in reality. The fact is the film industry had to work harder to scare people before Jurassic Park's CGI. That's the treat of Halloween. And this is my totally subjective opinion. Incidentally, not a fan of the Halloween sequels. One Halloween was all we needed.
Friday the 13th??? Where is it? Spawned many sequels and the iconic Jason Vorhees who is one of the biggest icons in horror... I would have to put the original on there as well as part 2 in which Jason is first introduced and doesn't even rock the hockey mask yet... Part 2 is probably my favorite as Jason sports a one-holed nap sack and even runs after his victims... Not to mention a really cool cat and mouse chase seen that concludes what I would say is a cheesy but classic horror movie. One of the movies is got to be in the top 100 is all I'm saying. No Child's Play either? Your list is okay but merely a drastic opinion I would say... Brad Dourif's chilling vocals portrayed through a killer doll post CGI is a horror classic. This list has some great movies no doubt but misses a few I can think of off the top of my head... Just saying it could have been done better and honestly if given the time I could do better myself. And the original Frankenstein not in the top 5 is disappointing... Boris Karloff is the classic monster in a truly original horror story that is one of the greatest movies of the horror genre of all time. You get 2 stars... A little disappointed
@Steven R Original Frankenstein is great, but Friday the 13th? Yes it spawned a bunch of sequels and they are all just as terrible as the original. Friday the 13th is just a real bad movie.
Not a bad list, but a pretty predictable top 10. And what about Near Dark, Basket Case, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Island of Lost Souls, The Wolf man, The Howling, The Last Man on Earth, Let Sleeping Corpses Die, From Beyond, Zombi 2, Fright Night, Night of The Demons, Candyman, Dog Soldiers, May, Shutter.
I like the movie "Burn witch Burn." It's not your classic jump scare movie but has some good scares about witchcraft and a killer ending.
If Chronos was made in 1943 then how come the screen shot is in colour?
This list is amateur. No Martyrs.
Whilst I do regard this as a good film, I agree with King that it missed the point. A pity really.
Alien, a great movie on many levels, spoilt only by the advent of Hollywood PC...
Newton once said "If I have seen far it is because I stand on shoulders of giants", and whilst I agree with the rating of Carpenter's "The Thing", to applaud it without a nod and a wink to the original movie and the author of the story (John Campbell Jr.) is, at least, careless.
I've never thought The Exorcist scary because it requires a religious belief I don't have. I do, however, accept crazed, evil people and zombies.
@Martin K wow you must feel so proud announcing that you don't have a religious affiliation....I wonder if you'll be as quick to deny God in judgment day, just before you get tossed into the lake of fire!
do you have to use the tired old myth about the cast of 'Alien' not knowing what was going to happen to John Hurt? How do you think they filmed it? - With Hurt in a body cast with fx crew there to perform the effect. Oh and the scene used in the film was a retake so the cast had seen it all before anyway... You don't have to know any of this for common sense to tell you that the alien didn't just burst out of his chest without some serious preparation. Lazy, poorly-researched journalism really hacks me off...
Except that's not a myth, it's true. The shot of Veronica Cartwright falling over is a real. They knew that SOMETHING was going to happen, just not WHAT or WHEN. Stop calling it a myth when it isn't.
@72trailsofsmoke You don't know what you're talking about.
"Dawn of the Dead", came out in 1978, not 1974. That is my all time favorite horror film.
the Conjuring is best of all for me. http://www.flipkart.com/the-conjuring/p/itmdn3dnwdxyxadq?affid=sandeepsem
i dont understand all the genre nuts losing their minds over certain "non-horror" films on the list. horror is horror. if you want to fine-tooth comb the genre and only accept "strict" definition films aka ghost stories, monsters, gore, etc, then you're missing out on a whole range of disturbing material that elicit the same emotional responses. kudos to time out for listing films like come and see and jacob's ladder, that are just as horrifying (probably more so, even) than most horror films.
this is a great list - very comprehensive, both in terms of eras and sub-genres. i personally would have liked to have seen capenter's prince of darkness and burial ground: nights of terror. though, the former definitely gets a mixed reaction from the masses as far as john carpenter films go. and the latter, totally niche and terrible in a lot of respects. but i still see it as the ultimate atmospheric zombie flick.
dont look now almost breaking the top 10? awesome.
Session 9, very underrated but creepy as hell, made in a real haunted asylum called Danvers (unfortunately not standing anymore)
Although I respect this list and all of its original choices, I believe the following three films must be included:
(1) The Eclipse (2009)
(2) Sinister (2012)
(3) The Conjuring (2013)
Personally I believe people saying all old horror movies are bad and likewise those claiming all new horror movies are bad are wrong. I did like many older titles on this list including The Thing, Alien, Jaws etc and I am delighted it has at least one new good horror movie The Descent(2005).
Since An American Werewolf movies was mentioned in this list I have 3 werewolf movies that I like much better. The Howling(1981) the original the rest of Howling movies are more or less B budget movies. Ginger Snaps(2000) was great and I also like the Action/Horror movie Dog Soldiers(2002). The classic Action/Horror movie for me is Aliens(1986).
One of the best horror lists I have ever seen. Tired of seeing movies considered "horror" and scary when they don't belong. There is a strong difference between disturbing and scary ( if disturbing was accounted for then you would see Saw on this list probably,The Girl Next Door, and Wicker Man , which I love, would be higher). I do have to agree with a previous post. Insidious should have a spot. Even more so for Conjuring. Otherwise the list was perfect.
@Matt Yeah this is my intake on this list. First of all I am NOT young. However I do eat
and everyone believes I am like 10 year younger when they meet me. I also tested online dating and if I put myself 10 years younger they believe me. In addition I do like NEW horror movies. I am happy that The Descent made it to top 100 it really deserves its place. I do like many of the old movies in this list like Alien, The Thing, Jaws the first of these were all good. That said this list represent taste of old people voting what are the best movies. Many youngsters say horror fans 20-25 years old would laugh at this list at least some titles. Personally I think those people who laugh saying all old horror movies are bad and likewise those who say all new horror movies are bad are very wrong or they are stuck in their own subjective timeline what is best.
I am not saying all new horror movies are good. That said 2000+ era has brought great horror movies. 3 Werewolf movies that I like more then then An American Werewolf in London. The Howling(1981 the original the first of them rest are low budget B movies) and YES I do like Ginger Snaps(2000) and Dog Soldiers(2002). Ok Dog Soldiers(2002) is more like Action/Horror, but Aliens(1986) the second Alien movie was also a great Action Horror movie.
Halloween in my opinion is the granddaddy of them all, a true masterpiece. I appreciate slow burn horror films as much as the next person but sometimes I want a horror movie to punch me in the gut from the opening frame and not let up. Martyrs is that type of movie.
Oops, just reviewed the list again REC is included, my bad still The Stepfather should have been included even if at 100 also the series of Eye films by the Pang Brothers were not too shabby, especially the first.
What no Stepfather (1987)? Also where is REC (2007)?.. now there's a horror film.
Good list, I found alot of new films here, but the last 5 were actually in a good order of how scary, finishing on the exorcist which is in my opinion the most scariest film ever created. So 5 stars from me. :)
Rosemary's Baby. One of the worst horror films of all-time. Boring as it gets. No suspense or scares whatsoever. The Exorcist yes, great film. The Shining as well. Overall a good list.
@Lars Rosemary's Baby builds suspense from the very beginning. You must not have been paying attention.
no insidious? no sinister or paranormal activity? they may not be for everyone but one cannot deny the impact they have had on the modern horror genre, look at the conjuring, fantastic movie. where is the changeling from 1981? or 1982, not sure of the year, and how does dont look now, a drama with a slightly shocking ending make it into this list when the prince of darkness doesnt? that film made me feel dirty all over with its literally unrelenting feel of oppression, forcing you deeper into your seat with each passing moment, forcing you to wonder if anyone will actually make it out alive, some poor decisions on what made this list, especially as ive always found movies like the ring(both countries versions) literally knock-me-to-sleep boring and the original grudge i found awful too, although i like the american remakes, which is unusual
You really had to put the last 10 as single items? I found they took just as long to load as the 10 per page ones. I had to stop at 6. The loading is unbearable and there seems to be many script errors on this site. I'd rather deal with those sites that make you click the link 5-10 times than this. At least they load fast.
Scream isn't scary enough to be in the top 100 scary horror movies. The movie was based off of suspense and drama based on the massacres and not enough fear by the audience.
considering this film is based on a true story, i think its pretty frightening , those of you who think its not frightening . i suggest you work your tiny little brains into action and think ,,,,, this scenario actually took place !!
I agree with AshS. What a lame, p'whipped list of crap. The title is Horror movies, and few of these elicit any feelings of ill ease, much less horror. Listing the Exorcist as No. 1? Are you kidding or just a limp-wristed theater critic?
Trash list, don't put movies if you think they are not actually scary movies. So many explanations like that are in so many of the movies you put. Useless.
First thing where is scream?? it may not be a top 10 contender but come on to not make the top 100 Is silly. Also hellraiser 3 has got to be in any top 100 list. I also think Woman in black and the strangers deserve a place in this list. Overall not that impressed with this list I mean A nightmare on Elm Street number 30 ish pffft
To the reviewer of "The Tenant" Did you even saw the movie or just searched in the web like a kid today would have in this wikipedia generation? Adjani played the character of Simone Choule??? You must have seen some other Tenant other than the one i saw... Really guys, and you are paid to do this job. Its scary the ignorance of a Time Out employee... If you don't know about something don't write about it, or just give it to someone who does.
Is it just me who thinks Ju-on needs to be on this list...?
not really impressed with this list, silence of the lambs 59??? come on, its not even a horror movie, its a psychological thriller.
Anybody who puts The Exorcist higher on their list than The Shining doesn't deserve to review horror movies. Kubrick is God. Remember that. Kubrick is God.
@Keegan Cahoon Spewing hyperbole about Kubrick only makes you seem ignorant.
I didn't actually watch the film.. But I think its sounds like it could be quite a good film. Merry Christmas everyone ! Rechal
Wow..Good Collection of Movies.. I like Horror Movies. Thanks for sharing this Wonderful list. Awesome Thanks

Princeton's new series of synthetic hair brushes (Series 6200) features an extra degree of stiffness to move and control color. Unlike natural bristles, which become soft and distorted when used in a water based medium, the bristles on these brushes retain their shape and stiffness.
Each brush features two shades of hair, seamless gold colored ferrules, and a Velvetouch handle for excellent grip and control. They can be used with heavier acrylic paints as well as oil and water based oil colors. Use the long handle brushes for easel style painting, and the short handle versions for detail work or tabletop painting.
Angular Bright — This variation on the shape of the Bright Brush is often handy for painting the upper reaches of large canvases.
Note — Brush sizes are not standardized. The length and width of a brush of a given shape and size varies considerably by manufacturer. Since fine art brushes are hand crafted, expect some variation even among brushes from a given manufacturer.
™ Princeton is a trademark.

The global recorded music industry was undergoing a major transition in 2006. Sales had been declining for a decade, and consumers were buying music in new formats and through different distribution channels. CD sales still accounted for the majority of revenues, but sales of music in digital formats (downloads, videos, ringtones) were growing significantly and accounting for approximately 10% of the industry's revenues in 2006. Many considered digital the future of the music business but the format posed both opportunities and challenges. While it had revitalized the singles market, for instance, digital had also facilitated rampant piracy. The music industry was retaliating, launching lawsuits against illegitimate peer-to-peer operators such as groups caught downloading illegally. Whether this would be enough to stop the trend was a matter of much debate. Meanwhile, the industry continued to consolidate. In 2004, Sony Music and BMG, the third- and fifth-largest record firms at the time, merged to form Sony BMG. Surprisingly, in 2006 the European Union's Court of First Instance annulled the merger--which the European Commission had approved two years earlier--after a group of independent music labels complained about the merger's effect on competition. While Sony and BMG were defending the merger in court, EMI Group plc wondered if its desired takeover of Warner Music Group--which it had been pursuing since 2000--would ever happen. If it did, how much business would the new entity have in the rapidly changing environment? All wondered how the industry would evolve.
learning objective:
To have students analyze the challenges facing the four major firms in the recorded music industry.
subjects covered:
Crime; Industry analysis; Intellectual capital

|Smooth Values of the Iterates of the Euler Phi-Function
Let $\phi(n)$ be the Euler phi-function, define $\phi_0(n) = n$ and $\phi_{k+1}(n)=\phi(\phi_{k}(n))$ for all $k\geq 0$. We will determine an asymptotic formula for the set of integers $n$ less than $x$ for which $\phi_k(n)$ is $y$-smooth, conditionally on a weak form of the Elliott--Halberstam conjecture.

Stuart Rosenberg Architects has worked with Moore
students in the past and contacted our internship prep teacher to see if anyone
was interested in an internship. She told us to look at his work to see if we
were interested. Two Moore students interviewed and he chose me for the
The firm does a little bit of everything from commercial to residential to historic preservation. I worked every day during the internship and Stuart kept me on until the beginning of the semester. I worked on architectural drawing and details. I had the opportunity to meet with some clients as well. I did surveying out in the field, where I would go out and measure where existing walls are and square footage to incorporate in drawings. I worked to organize materials in the library and helped interior designers pick out materials to use.
I've enhanced all the skills that I've learned at Moore
and have gotten much better at using AutoCAD and Photoshop. I have learned the architectural
numbering systems, the way they divide the materials and spec sheets in the
library. I've learned how to not only meet with clients and talk about projects
but e-mail, talk on the phone and answer questions professionally. I also had
the opportunity to observe how Stuart gets a project when he goes out to bid
for it and receives confirmation to be the architect for the project.
Stuart has an interior designer who works for him, so I've learned a lot from her too. She has me go on the Internet to pick out the tile or hardware she wants. I definitely feel if I hadn't had the internship I wouldn't have gained the skills I need senior year and after that I feel like I have a better chance of getting job after school. I really want to focus on historic preservation and eventually open my own business.
