Ever dreamed of working in a green collar job? Have a craving to work with insects, fungi, mammals? Do you like looking at complex current issues from a variety of perspectives: scientific, economic, ethical, political and historical? Do you long to lobby Congress for the clean fuels agenda or promote sustainability in your community? The Department of Environmental Studies and Sciences offers a wealth of opportunities for personal and career development.
Ithaca College is an exciting place, and the Department of Environmental Studies and Sciences offers one of its most exciting and versatile majors.
Key strengths of the department:
Our actively cultivated sense of community:
We are proud of, and known for, our sense of community. Our majors are active and highly motivated students that are supported by an energetic faculty with an excellent working relationship. As we have grown, we have managed to maintain an intimate, highly interactive student-faculty and student-student experience. We do this in a number of ways: our curriculum contains a strong common core of shared experience; the first course in our major is a small, intense, experience; our weekly seminar provides an ongoing shared intellectual experience and allows for out-of-classroom interactions; we have a number of community-building events throughout the semester.
A core faculty that represents diverse disciplines:
Our content-area strengths are land conservation and management, sustainable alternative food systems, environmental health and pollution, sustainability science, environmental issues in developing nations, historical perspectives, place-based environmental education and analysis, and earth system science.
Student appeal:
As evidence by our growing numbers of majors and minors, we are providing a program that attracts students to Ithaca College.
Applied place-based experiential education:
Applied place-based experiential education is our defining characteristic and hallmark. We have capitalized on our local and regional resources, and developed community partnerships to produce many unique and stand-out experiences for our students. Some of these include:
Management of Ithaca College Natural Lands
International immersion trips to Belize and Ecuador
Production and sale of non-timber forest products
Design and management of permaculture garden
Management of a community organic garden
Service learning through community partnerships
Local wilderness skills and awareness training
Investigation of local environmental problems (e.g., heavy metal pollution, invasive species)
Local history as it relates to the environment
Integrative interdisciplinary education:
In addition to our experiential approaches, we are innovators in truly integrative interdisciplinary education. Some of our representative courses include:
Interdisciplinary physical science
Environmental science and technology
Human-environment geography
Earth system science
Environmental history
Non-traditional sustainable food systems
Environmental Sentinels
Cultural immersion requirement:
To ensure that every student receives experience in new cultural perspectives as applied to human-environment interactions, we pioneered a non-credit bearing requirement in cultural immersion, which requires students to experience environmental perspectives that are different than their own. We have implemented this requirement with maximum flexibility to ensure that students of all economic backgrounds can participate. Our experience to date suggests that these experiences are always meaningful and often pivotal to our students' education and character development.

6 min

Just joined. I am the Timberwolves.
Question: Are "online assoc. sign and trades" allowed? For example, say it's past the trade deadline but two people still want to trade. Both people contact the commish to oversee and approve the trade. Both teams release the players they wish to trade and they sign the dropped players.
I don't like it personally IMO there's a deadline for a reason, but if the league overwhelmingly thinks it's ok; i'll approve.
How come the pre draft rankings are all jacked up?
I joined yesterday, as the Hornets (REAL SHOCKER they were still left...). Also, how is the draft order going to be determined?
I just joined as the Bobcats.

It's good to have goals. And as we begin a new year, we often find ourselves setting new health/fitness goals. But it's also important to be specific. So that's what I've tried to do with my New Year's resolution this year.
I want to do a pull up. That's right. A pull-up.
I'm a fairly strong girl. I lift weights. I can do honest-to-goodness push-ups. But the pull-up has always escaped me.
Last year, in 2011, I spent some time working out at Cross Fit So Co. Part of the workouts often include pull-ups. Men AND women could do them! I wasn't quite there, so I always had to do the modified version, which basically involved jumping up over and over to hold my head above the bar.
But I always admired the strength it took to actually do a pull-up. So in 2013, I'm going to do it!
Hopefully, I will be able to do more than one by the end of the year. But first things first - one pull-up.
I think it's going to require some hard work in the gym. But I'm up for it. And for the days that I can't make it to the gym, there's a park across the street from my house with some monkey bars. So I can keep checking my progress there too!
I'm putting my goal here in the blog, because it definitely helps me feel accountable. So I encourage you to post YOUR goal here in the comments below. We can do this together!
Here's to a healthy and happy 2013 where we meet ALL our goals!

It's about the underlying principle: Does this break the game or give those willing to pay real money for these items an inherent advantage over those who aren't, and as such does it diminish the gaming experience of those unwilling to pay extra?
The answer is no. Completing the 25 odd daily quests a week it takes to get the coins you need to be "competitive" is not exactly that difficult. Plus there are a multitude of other sources for these coins anyway - just killing mobs rewards them so you need to do even less dailies than that. My main literally has about 4000 of the damned things - I lost count months ago. In short, if you are a player who is sufficiently competitive to make the argument that you "need" the 50 coins a week, you will easily acquire them without even trying.
They are selling these as "quality of life" items for characters to achieve some semblance of progression given a very tight time budget - which pretty means ultra casuals and alts. Neither qualifies in the "competitive" category, and it doesn't matter how many people out there are buying these things, it won't make an iota of difference to any competitive aspect of WoW (disregarding those 2 guys on some random server who are competing for world first to get to 10 Million Lesser Charms of Good Fortune).

...I like to listen in publics disturbed by usual public music and voices.I am usually made nervous by rap,punk,pop and the disco types and some weak voices and calmed by Slayer sound beatings and his strong child voice completes a weak part of mine that I have,I am also calmed by black tee and coffee,I like to drink strong black tee, with the coffee I may not feel enough also the music, I loose the sensations.I think he's very pleasant for the heavy metal type as I don't like to hear anything negative and I don't prefer the satanicals as I am atheist but his voice is very positive and sounds clean freshly violent.I don't have any friends as I can't stand some types and I wish for some friends boys among the fans.I had a period of searching Russian friends in the Moldavian Republic as I like the blue eyed,I rarely find the type I like and is now Slayer the next rarity.I haven't been successful and are no more Russians there,I can't go further and other type blue eyed weaker like the Romans make me nervous also, depends of some weakness in the shapes of the head, I am brown hair and eyes but I have a tougher head, I don't feel tough, I feel weak others and I may create an "inferiority psychological complex" just like the metal type music at weaker types, that means some make themselves nervous understanding themselves weaker, more stupid or any way inferior, and search superiority in any way, even through a force any type or trick.You don't like how to heats a girl you don't like a boy either alone or stronger connected, you just need some other type of friend doesn't matter for what friendship reasons

No one can stop us tonight

We conquer then move on ahead

Developed by Polaroid, inventors of the instant film camera, this is the digital camera that can shoot and print photos by itself. In less than a minute and without messy ink cartridges, the 10 megapixel camera's integrated printer produces vibrant 2" x 3" borderless color snapshots using patented paper embedded with colored dye crystals. The prints are smudge- and tear-proof, fade- and water-resistant, and have a peel-off backing for display as stickers. The compact camera has a 6X digital zoom, shoots video with audio, and can save files to an SD memory card up to 32 GB (sold separately). Before printing, images can be viewed and cropped on the 3" color LCD screen. Rechargeable lithium-ion battery charges in one hour using the included AC adapter.

Polaroid Camera - Novelty - not print
By Michelle
from Arizona
I always liked my old polaroid camera and was sad to see it go. I hoped big for this new version. However, when I used it, the pictures came out blurry even when I set the resolution high. Polaroid needs to fix this issue or no one will buy these cameras. I can't believe that polaroid actually released the camera printing blurry pictures. I may keep it just for the novelty but they need to go back to the engineering drawboard.

Just the camera I was looking for!
By Nancy, not very high-tech
from Alberta, Canada
This is just what I was looking for - a digital camera that prints its own pictures. Of course I had one of the original Land Cameras years ago, but until I saw the Hammacher Schlemmer catalogue, I wasn't aware that there was a digital version. I plan to photograph my soon-to-be-adopted dog, who is arriving in the new year. Still love to have an old-fashioned picture in a frame!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The picture size and adhesive back make this camera perfect for ID cards.

News & Information
The Council for Economic Education teaches children about the 4th R - the real world - through lessons in personal finance and economics. We carry out our mission by providing professional development to teachers, teaching resources across the curriculum and nationally-normed assessment tools. CEE draws on the expertise of university professors to develop and update K-12 learning materials with a strong interactive component. The following resources support teachers in their classrooms, and provide support to those who want to make the case for great economic and financial education for K-12 students.
CEE's blog features our latest news and information, videos, events and announcements for educators.
Our Teaching the News section features current events and the related lessons teachers can use in the classroom.
The Survey of the States is a biennial report that brings attention to the critical importance of economics and personal finance education by documenting its status in the fifty states and the District of Columbia.
CEE compiles academic research and anecdotes from industry experts and university professors to encourage school districts, media representatives, parents and educators to stand behind the importance of personal finance and economic education in our nation's schools.
Each year we grant federal funds from the United States Department of Education through EEE to over 80 local education groups – here are some of the results of that work.

TBI, PTSD, and psychiatric drugs. A perfect storm for causing abnormal mental states and aberrant behavior. In Brock, H. and Else, R.C. (Eds). The Attorneys Guide to Defending Veterans in Criminal Court. Minneapolis, MN: Veterans Defense Project. Chapter 10, pp. 251-264, 2014.
Peter R. Breggin, MD
Recent years have seen a marked increase in the prescription of psychiatric drugs to activity duty military personnel and to veterans. Until the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, soldiers were rarely if ever sent into combat while taking psychiatric drugs, but now it is commonplace, and may occur in 20% or considerably more of combat troops. Nearly all soldiers returning from combat with psychiatric diagnoses will be placed on multiple psychiatric drugs and maintained on them during treatment at the VA.
The Utmost Discretion: How Presumed Prudence Leaves Children Susceptible to Electroshock. Children & Society, 28, (2014) pp. 231-241
Cheryl van Daalen-Smith, Simon Adam, Peter Breggin and Brenda A. LeFrançois
This article examines the controversial and largely publicly undocumented practice of administering electroconvulsive therapy (ECT or electroshock) to children who are undergoing psychiatric treatment. Conventional psychiatric beliefs and practices are challenged, along with a presentation of the history of scientific research which questions electroshock's 'effectiveness' and outlines its brain-damaging and incapacitating effects. As such, we provide counterarguments regarding the legitimacy of ECT as a treatment option, deconstructing the principle of presumed prudence in its use. Our analysis leads us to conclude that the 'principle of presumed prudence' should be eschewed in favour of the 'precautionary principle', in order to underscore and uphold the medical ethos 'to do no harm' and to ensure the application of children's rights within the psychiatric system. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd and National Children's Bureau.
Peter R. Breggin, MD
Based on the author's extensive clinical, forensic and research experience, this article addresses the scientific and moral question of whether it is ever in the best interests of a child to be given a psychiatric drug. The focus is on the diagnosis Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and stimulant drugs, and on the diagnosis Bipolar Disorder and antipsychotic (neuroleptic) drugs. The conclusion is that we should work towards a prohibition against giving psychiatric drugs to children, and instead focus on safe and effective alternative ways of meeting the needs of children within their families, schools and society. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd and National Children's Bureau.

The newer antidepressants frequently cause suicide, violence, and manic-like symptoms of activation or overstimulation, presenting serious hazards to active-duty soldiers who carry weapons under stressful conditions. These antidepressant-induced symptoms of activation can mimic posttraumatic stress disorder and are likely to worsen this common disorder in soldiers, increasing the hazard when they are prescribed to military personnel. Antidepressants should not be prescribed to soldiers during or after deployment.

Should you tell your new boss you have diabetes? Job discrimination against people with diabetes has dropped over the years, but occasionally I'll hear stories from patients about discrimination at the workplace. The discrimination is generally related to an uninformed or misinformed supervisor or co-workers about diabetes.
I've heard stories from individuals with diabetes who were told by the boss that they couldn't test their blood glucose in front of other employees because it bothered the other employees. Others weren't given proper facilities or time to do the blood glucose testing.
The law currently states you can only be denied employment if you're unable to perform the specific duties of the job, even if the employer makes reasonable accommodations to help you perform your job. The law only covers individuals who work for companies that employ more than 15 people.
It's illegal for an employer to ask a prospective employee about their health unless they ask all employees interviewed the same question. If your employer doesn't ask about your health, you aren't obligated to tell. If your employer does ask you if you have diabetes and you don't tell them, you could lose some legal protections against job discrimination.
Most people I talk to, as a diabetes educator, seem to think it's better to tell your boss you have diabetes rather than hiding the fact and then having others try to guess why you're making extra trips to the bathroom, eating snacks, or even acting a little strange with a low blood glucose.
If you share the fact you have diabetes with others, you may be surprised at how supportive they can be and you can even take the opportunity to teach them something about diabetes and alleviate a lot of the misunderstandings and misconceptions about diabetes.
Questions for the week:
Have a good week!

Is it okay for an employer to tell you that you can't take your insulin in view of the public? Especially if its not a syringe it's an insulin pen with needle topper.
I've had a certain job for over 20 years and have become almost borderline diabetic and have frequent blood sugar issues, but don't need insulin, yet. However, I do need to eat a small stack about every two hours. I travel around to different locations and work at a front counter where I can't eat in the job or keep food nearby. So, usually, I take a quick break when my blood sugar starts getting low to eat an aplple or quick snack. Or, I ask if I can take a break every two hours. However one supervisor refuses for me to take a break when I need it and claims that I have to "deal with this issue". There is no real reason why I can't leave the desk to take a break about every two hours (such as for safety reasons, etc) except that she wants to control everyone. She also says I can't keep food nearby or get a quick bite when I need it.
Recently, I was told that I was not being flexible in regards to breaks and that I could be terminated because of this issue. I wonder if there's something I could do because I'm not full-blown diabetic, yet. I am trying not to get to that point.
i am 44 years old now..and have had this type 1 for over 23 years. i changed jobs after 13 years as a picture framer because of no health insurance. and made the worst mistake of my life just because i needed health insurance..i GOT A JOB for the city of fort walton beach. yes, i had health insurance but the people where some of the worst one can ever meet.. regarding the understanding and the difficulty of having type 1. i was told i was HIGH MANTNANCE. and Dangerous . 4 and a half years i worked with these kind of people. the biggest problem was the people..and still is. the way people, not just diabetics but all others are treated by the forman & office staff is Criminal.
I have experienced job descrimination several times. I feel i have the right to work just like any normal person. I am thinking of taking my complaints to someone who can take action on the employers.
I am aware of one job that a person taking insulin can't qualify for - truck driver. As I understand it, you can't get a CDL (commercial driver's license) if you take insulin. Some of my clients have been faced with this complication when trying to decide whether to start insulin therapy.
Correction in my previous note should read the employer has become smarter and I feel it will be impossilbe for me to retain a job anymore.
The statistics may show discrimination against diabetes has gone down only because they employer has become smarter. I say this because they will not say it's a problem from your disease but rather you are not qualified because then they have the upper hand and you can not argue the fact that you are as they will say you need to preform at same level as every one else even though that is not possible when your blood sugars fluctuate every day and minute. I am so frustrated with employers now. When I first started working I worked on one job for 17 years and had the same disease as now but now they will not accomodate for your condition and after living with a diseas like diabetes for almost 48 years I feel it will be impossible for my to retain a job anymore. As in the past 10 years I have gone through about 17 jobs no one in their right mind would want to do that but how do I pay my bills other wise.? I don't think anyone can say I am not trying to be employed after that many jobs. I think we need to put more pressure on the emplyers and make them understand this is still discrimination even though they try to cover it by saying you are not qualified for the job.
YES...in the past 31 years with diabetes I have come across discrimination in the job force. I ask the qualifications needed, then remind them that I have all that and more in front of them. It is hard. It is better to be honest right away and tell them yourself, before some one else finds out. That is a perfect opportunity to educate about the disease, it's effect on you and that you have the capability to take care of things and rarely need any assistance from others. Keep good records if things are going on. Name names, dates, what happened, your response to it. Documentation is vital. Jobs not to hold: years ago I would have said yes, but now with the insulin pump, glucose monitoring at home and everything else we have in our personal arsenols there isn't really much that we can not do within reason. Safety first!

The update SQL file(s) are located in a directory that is listed in the manifest file:
<update> <schemas> <schemapath type="mysql">sql/updates</schemapath> </schemas> </update>
There is a file for each component version. Each file name must match the version string in the manifest file for that version. Joomla uses this string to determine which SQL files(s) to execute, and in what order they will be executed. Joomla uses the PHP version_compare function for this. Familiarize yourself with this command. Your version sequence needs to adhere to the conventions of this command. For example, the SQL files for version 3.1 include:
1.0.sql (empty) 1.1.sql UPDATE `#__democompupdate_mytable` SET myvalue='Version 1.1 text' WHERE id=1; 1.1.1.sql UPDATE `#__democompupdate_mytable` SET myvalue='Version 1.1.1 text' WHERE id=1; 1.2.sql INSERT INTO `#__democompupdate_mytable` (id,myvalue) VALUES (2,'Version 1.2 text'); 1.2.1.sql UPDATE `#__democompupdate_mytable` SET myvalue='Version 1.2.1 text' WHERE id=2; 1.3.sql INSERT INTO `#__democompupdate_mytable` (id,myvalue) VALUES (3,'Version 1.3 text');
This example has complete install files for component versions 1.0 (initial), 1.1.1 and 1.3. Update SQL files are included for additional incremental component versions (1.1, 1.2 and 1.2.1) between these three versions. These extra versions illustrate the process for updates that span more than one incremental version.
Joomla executes the database updates in the sequence that would occur, as if the user had updated each version separately. This would be necessary if an incremental database update depended on the correct update from the previous version. An example would be: an addition of a table value during one version depended on the insertion of a new table field during the update of the previous version.
Joomla uses the PHP function version_compare to define the execution order of the SQL files. The sequencing of your component version string must adhere to that defined by the version_compare function.

One of Maine's oldest farms opens to public for Maple Weekend
Monday, March 25, 2013
LEBANON, Maine — Slightly off the beaten path is Belgian Meadows Farm, one of Maine's oldest farms.
"Just like candy," exclaimed 12-year-old Hali Chadbourne as she sampled with a smile.
Strolling through the woods also entailed stepping to the side of the path occasionally as Collins passed by with a dual Belgian Horse drawn sleigh full of laughing and giggling passengers.
"This is really nice, I never knew it was here," he said.
Inside, enjoying the ambience were Rochester's Jeffrey Holt and Christine Arsenault who were soaking up the atmosphere for a different reason. On May 11th they will be married on the premises and will spend their wedding night in the appropriately named Honeymoon Cottage.
People arriving at the main house were greeted by Lamie Venios, a Woburn, Mass., native who has found his niche in Maine.
"I can't believe I lived all my life traveling in to Boston every day," said Venios "this is what real people are all about."
The dining area was set up with numerous family-style tables. Cooking up stacks and stacks of pancakes were Hoss Garry of Rochester and his assistant of two years Madisen Blowers-McCune of Sanford.
"She's been the best helper I've ever had," said Hoss referring to Madisen, "she's part of the tradition now."
The event is in its third year and is a celebration of Maine life on the farm. Owner Steve Collins has owned the property for 22 years.
The event, which is a celebration for residents of the area, is also a validation of the quality of Steve Collins. Everyone working on the event this day was volunteering their time because of him.
Johnna Shennott describe Collins as "a man with the biggest heart, he loves bringing joy into people's lives. When he says 'how are you,' he really means it."
Belgian Meadows Farm may be visited on line at belgianmeadowsfarm.com.

Andrew Bansal of Mettal Assault has posted the following concert review. "For the past few decades, heavy metal and symphony have crossed each other's paths as several metal bands and musicians have incorporated symphonic elements in their compositions, some even employing the usage of full orchestras to record and perform live. But the much-anticipated 'Symphony Interrupted' event at the Copley Hall in San Diego promised to be unique and first of its kind, with classical music at the forefront and a heavy metal icon attempting to lend his touch to it." Read the review at metalassault.com.
Dave Mustaine was a featured soloist last night (Saturday, April 12) with the San Diego Symphony. The classical special sold-out concert, billed as "Symphony Interrupted", took place at the Copley Symphony Hall in San Diego, California. The event saw Dave perform Richard Wagner's "Ride Of The Valkyries" with the orchestra, as well as solos of Vivaldi's concertos from "The Four Seasons", plus Bach's classic "Air". Dave has posted the following message on his Facebook page. Fan-filmed video footage of the concert can be seen below.

The brilliance of an unique labradorite gemstone in a flattering oval shape gives this ring its wow factor. Enhanced by a twisted rope of brass and sterling silver and brass filigree scrolls, this ring features a bezel-set labradorite cabochon that shines with blue, green and brown iridescence. Inspired by the splendor of the south and gracious architecture, this piece adds elegance to any look. Ring measures 1-1/4" long x 3/4" wide. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
Honoring the hospitality and splendor of the South, a filigreed frame of sterling silver and brass embodies the elegant heirlooms of the region's great homes and provides a luxurious setting for smooth labradorite cabochons of the highest quality. Light seems to emanate from this rare stone, glowing in iridescent shades of blue, green and brown.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Imagining Power: The Visual Culture of the Jacobite Cause
- 1 December 2011 — 31 December 2015 *on now
The Scottish National Portrait Gallery has the most extensive and significant collection of Jacobite visual material in the world.
The term 'Jacobite' derives from 'Jacobus', the Latin form of James, and describes those who supported James VII and II, the exiled Catholic monarch of Scotland, England and Ireland, and his heirs. Jacobitism was launched as a political and ideological cause by the birth of a son to King James in 1688 and the subsequent coup d'état led by his Protestant son-in-law, William of Orange. For nearly 100 years Jacobitism was a major factor in European affairs and it was responsible for the last battles on British soil.
This fascinating display focuses on the way Jacobites presented themselves in portraiture

Citizens of the World | David Hume & Allan Ramsay
- 1 December 2011 — 31 December 2015 *on now
Scotland made a remarkable contribution to the European Enlightenment of the eighteenth century with many of her citizens contributing to the ferment of ideas and shifts in attitude which transformed the world.
Two Scots, David Hume, the great philosopher, and Allan Ramsay, the outstanding painter, were at the centre of this cultural and intellectual revolution.
Suitable for
- Any age
Reformation to Revolution
- 1 December 2011 — 31 December 2016 *on now
By the close of the seventeenth century the monarchy, church and parliament had all changed drastically.
These complex changes had important cultural consequences. With religious painting no longer acceptable, there was an increase in demand for secular art forms, portraiture in particular. This coincided with a growing merchant and professional class beginning to commission works of art to display their increased ambition and economic strength.
Painted portraits were expensive, and those who acquired them came from the wealthiest levels of society, both old and new. These men and women used portraits to assert ideas of social status as well as to record an individual likeness. Their images played a significant role in the struggles for power, identity and nationhood during this period.
Suitable for
- Any age
The Age of Improvement
- 1 December 2011 — 31 December 2015 *on now
Between 1750 and 1850 Scotland was transformed. Commercial, industrial and agricultural improvement changed the physical appearance and the social fabric of the country. A new meritocracy emerged, whose members demanded a leading role in civil society and politics, alongside the traditional landowning elite.
These new middle-classes wished to see their own values – industriousness, self-reliance and social responsibility – asserted in their portraits, offering a moral contrast to the showy and often overpowering images of earlier times. Civic virtue and moral fibre would be judged in the faces of those who were now able to commission a likeness.
Suitable for
- Any age
Making History
- 12 October 2013 — 29 March 2015 *on now
The exhibition explores the recent work by Alexander Stoddart (Sculptor in Ordinary to the Queen in Scotland) commissioned by the Scottish National Portrait Gallery: the making of a monumental figure representing History for the exterior of the Gallery.
A figure of History, by William Birnie Rhind, adorned the apex of the main entrance of the Gallery from 1893 but was weathered beyond repair. Stoddart's new figure will be installed on the exterior of the Gallery in the autumn and his process and preparatory works will be the main focus of this exhibition.
Suitable for
- Any age
Remembering the Great War
- 4 August 2014 — 5 July 2015 *on now
This exhibition will be held at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War. Though-provoking and poignant, and encompassing famous Scots as well as far less well-known figures, it will make a major contribution to next year's global commemorations.
Largely drawn from works in the National Galleries of Scotland collections, the exhibition will include a rich variety of portraits and related works in various media. Among those featured are Commander-in-Chief Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig: James Keir Hardie who opposed British involvement in the war; Dr Elsie Ingles who took a team of Scottish nurses to Serbia; artists Sir James Gunn and Sir William Gillies who were wounded in action; James Maxton who organized a ship-workers' strike during the war; J S Haldane who invented the gas mask, and Harry Lauder who entertained troops at the Front, who wrote the morale-boosting anthem 'Keep Right on to the End of the Road', and whose only son was killed in France on Boxing Day, 1916.
It will provide a significant opportunity for a large number of people to learn about the devastating impact of the First World War and its consequences, and specifically about the key role that Scotland and the Scottish people played.
Beauty by Design | Fashioning the Renaissance
- 15 November 2014 — 3 May 2015 *on now
Beauty by Design is an innovative exhibition linking the renaissance art collections of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery and Scottish National Gallery to contemporary fashion design, practice and display. The exhibition showcases two different, but inter-connected strands of research activity: responding to old-master paintings in the National Galleries' collections, UK-based fashion designers have created new works using high-quality materials such as lace, while renaissance art specialists have explored ideas about beauty and cosmetics. The theme of body image is central: the historic paintings have been approached both as a means of challenging current perceptions of physical beauty, and as inspiration for a more diverse and emotionally considerate practice on the part of today's fashion designers.
BP Portrait Award 2014
- 29 November 2014 — 12 April 2015 *on now
The BP Portrait Award showcases the very best in contemporary portrait painting from around the world. For 33 years, of which the last 23 have been sponsored by BP, the exhibition has presented outstanding and innovative new work in a variety of styles and approaches, and it continues to be a highlight of the annual art calendar at all its venues. This is the fifth time that the Scottish National Portrait Gallery has hosted the Award.
The BP Portrait Award is organised by the National Portrait Gallery, London.

Ponte City: Mikhael Subotzky and Patrick Waterhouse
- 6 December 2014 — 26 April 2015 *on now
Rising 54 storeys high, Ponte City is the tallest residential building in Africa. Since 1975 this iconic structure has punctuated the Johannesburg skyline, originally offering cosmopolitan living for white South Africa. In the post-apartheid years the building became more integrated, with many people relocating from townships and recently it has become home for immigrants from other African countries. In 2007 developers planned a major refurbishment of the tower block; although the renovation began it was never completed—leaving the structure in a semi-destructed state, while tenants, those who had not yet been evicted or were simply squatting, still occupied flats in the block.
These images of Ponte City are featured in an exhibition that will open at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, the only UK showing.

The Olympic Games is a unique and complex project, and its size, scope and complexity are like no other. For this reason, for a city to host successful Olympic Games, many years of careful and precise planning are required, with all of the relevant organisations, authorities and stakeholders working together.
One of the most important decisions taken by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is the election of the host city for the Olympic Games. The Games are awarded to one city, although some venues may be located outside the host city itself. The host city election takes place seven years before the Games, but the actual bid process is launched nine years before and lasts for a period of two years. The National Olympic Committee (NOC) of the country concerned puts forward the name of a city to the IOC, with each NOC entitled to put forward only one city located within its territory. The actual work on putting together an Olympic bid often begins many years before this, with city, regional and national authorities working hard with the NOC to prepare its Olympic project. In some cases the NOC even carries out its own selection process from a number of interested cities within its own country.
The two-year bid process is split into two phases (each lasting approximately one year) and is governed by the Olympic Charter (Rule 33 and its bye-law):- Phase I: Applicant Phase- Phase II : Candidature Phase
During Phase I, the Applicant Cities are required to answer an IOC questionnaire and submit their answers, called an Application File, to the IOC. The Application File is then studied by an IOC-appointed Working Group. This Group, which includes representatives of various Olympic stakeholders such as the International Federations (IFs), the National Olympic Committees and the IOC Athletes' Commission, carries out a detailed risk assessment and makes a thorough and detailed report to the IOC Executive Board, which is then responsible for selecting the cities that will advance to Phase II. The cities selected become Candidate Cities.
The Candidate Cities are required to answer the second-phase IOC questionnaire and submit much more detailed plans to the IOC which are contained in a Candidature File (a city's blueprint for the Olympic Games). The Candidature File is accompanied by a substantial number of legally binding guarantee letters. The areas covered in the Candidature File are vast and range from the Olympic Village, transport, security and accommodation to sports and venues, the environment, marketing and many more.
The Candidature File and accompanying documents are analysed by an IOC Evaluation Commission which, like the Phase I Working Group, also includes representatives of various Olympic stakeholders such as the IFs, NOCs and the IOC Athletes' Commission, as well as the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). The Commission pays an on-site visit to each city and produces an important risk assessment report which is provided to all IOC members, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of all the cities.
The Candidate Cities deliver a number of presentations during the second phase of the bid process, and the final presentation is given on the election day to the IOC members. Following the presentations and a report given by the Evaluation Commission Chair, the IOC members vote and take the important decision of electing the host city. The newly elected host city then signs the Host City Contract with the IOC.
