Poker chip-sized device non-invasively measures brain temperature
By Ben Coxworth
May 6, 2011
Whether caused by strokes in seniors or hypoxia in newborn infants, brain injuries can cause the brain to overheat, which in turn causes its cells to die. While there are cooling therapies that can bring its temperature down, doctors first need to establish that the brain is indeed warmer than the rest of the patient's body. While doing so has previously involved invasive techniques, researchers from Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters (CHKD) in Norfolk, Virginia have recently created a small device that sits on top of the patient's head, and measures their brain's temperature non-invasively.
The poker chip-sized device measures microwaves produced by the brain, that pass unimpeded through the skull. Those microwaves become more intense, the higher the temperature gets.
In a clinical trial, the device was used on infants undergoing cooling therapy at CHKD. Measuring temperatures 15 millimeters beneath their skulls, it was found that their brains were significantly warmer than the rest of their bodies – as observed through rectal and esophageal temperatures.
It is hoped that by being able to obtain precise readings so quickly and easily, the device will be able to make cooling therapy even more effective than it is already.Share

When Osifo was laid to rest in Lagos
The late Managing Director of First Bank Capital Limited, a subsidiary of First Bank, Osaze Osifo, was buried on Thursday, March 8 at Ikoyi Vaults Gardens,Lagos after a service at the Guiding Light Assembly, Parkview Estate, Ikoyi.
The news of Osifo's death hit town on February 29 shortly after he passed on in his sleep at Nicon Hilton, Abuja.
Osifo's death devastated his colleagues, friends and relations, many of whom are yet to come to terms that the mechanical engineer-turned-financial expert is no more.
At the service, Central Bank Governor Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, who struggled to hold back tears, said he had in the last one year lost his two friends in the banking industry, Osifo and the late Chief Executive Officer of Guaranty Trust Bank, TayoAderinokun, who died last year.
He recalled his tenure as Managing Director of First Bank and how Osifo became a dependable pillar of support.
He said: "Every one in public service will need people like Osaze. There were times (as CBN Governor) when I faced situations. Osaze was always there and he would call to give me support and ask me to stay the course."
Among those present at the event included the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala; MD/CEO, First Bank, Mr Olabisi Onasanya; Director-General of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Arunma Oteh; CEO, African Finance Corporation, Andrew Alli; former Lagos State Commissioner for Finance, Mr Wale Edun, among others.

Vulnerability Scanning and Compliance
Hide details
Lee Lawson
With patches, threats and changes to your network taking place on a daily basis it is vital to understand if you are managing risk effectively. Vulnerability scanning is often a useful method to establish a vulnerability baseline across the network which is then tested on a regular basis to understand variance.
Vulnerability Scanning is also required for a number of key regulatory compliance standards in both the public and private sector making it an even more crucial element of an organisation's security operations.
During this 30 minute webcast, Lee Lawson, Head of Security Testing and Response at Dell SecureWorks, will cover the following topics:
•Vulnerability scanning drivers
•Pros and cons for different vulnerability scanning solutions
•Best fit solution for specific regulatory compliance standards
Lee Lawson is the team leader, lead computer forensic investigator and penetration tester for Dell SecureWorks in EMEA. With a broad range of experience in IT security analysis, systems engineering and network security, Lee leads the penetration testing and digital forensic teams.
Lee has been involved with secure computer systems for over a decade, as a user and later as an engineer and penetration tester of Military networks. Lee holds many professional certifications in his specialised fields such as the EnCase Certified Examiner, Certified Ethical Hacker, Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and PCI QSA (Qualified Scanning Assessor). Lee holds UK Government SC clearance and has experience of developing and delivering training courses for Security Testing and Forensic Readiness. In addition, he has been responsible for reporting evidence in several cases of financial fraud, hacker attacks, IP theft and deception.

A Zero-Day Agnostic Approach to Defending Against Advanced Threats
Eric Hanselman, Chief Analyst, 451 Research & Dave Karp, VP Technical Enablement, Digital Guardian
Mar 26 2015
51 mins
As organizations work hard to ensure complete anti-malware coverage on desktops, servers, and at the perimeter, attackers are already moving on to techniques completely outside those detected by traditional security tools. Enterprises must consider alternative approaches to defending their infrastructure and turn their focus to tools, products and techniques that approach security in new and different ways.
In this webinar, Eric and Dave will discuss:
• How the volume of system alerts from Network Security solutions are creating lots of noise but lack context to focus on the real threats facing your data
• How to stop advanced threats – with no advance knowledge of the tools or malware – by following the attack sequence
• Why bridging the gap between system security and data protection is the key to stopping ever increasing sophisticated attackers from stealing your data

48 mins
Hadi Hosn, Managing Principal Consultant
Information is a business critical asset, forming the backbone of organisation globally, and driving growth.

The remit of information security has grown to encompass all aspects of an organisation. It is no longer just a question of IT security. CISOs now need to understand the risks faced by their organisation, where security fits into every business process, and bridge the gap between technical and business stakeholders.

Chris Yule, Senior Security Consultant at Dell SecureWorks, will discuss how a security partner that can deliver at all levels of the security stack allows for a greater understanding of your organisation, which ultimately delivers better intelligence-led security.

POSitive Thinking: Detecting and Preventing Point of Sale (POS) Malware Attacks
Apr 3 2014
52 mins
Rafe Pilling, Counter Threat Unit Researcher
Malware targeting Point of Sale (POS) terminals has been exploited by eCrime operators for a number of years but has recently been catapulted to the forefront of industry attention with a number of high-profile breaches. Properly executed, a malware attack on POS terminals can reap huge volumes of credit card numbers in a short space of time without resorting to low-rate of return strategies involving large phishing campaigns. Due to its low risk/ high reward nature, this type of attack is only likely to become more popular with eCrime operators.
In the session Rafe Pilling, Counter Threat Unit Special Operations, will look at the nature of the POS malware threat and how it can be defeated through proper application of threat intelligence.
What will attendees learn:
* A potted history of POS malware
* What does the POS malware threat landscape look like?
* Effective use of threat intelligence to detect and prevent POS malware attacks.
Building an Effective Security Operation Centre
Mar 13 2014
48 mins
Sandip Wadje, Practice Leader SOC Consulting at Dell SecureWorks
Security Operation Centres (SOCs) act as the nerve centre of an organisation providing real-time alerts, security intelligence and reports to act against internal and external threats. SOCs often use multiple event monitoring tools, ticketing systems and workflow solutions and as a result, building an effective SOC still remains a challenge for most organisations.
How do organisations choose a security monitoring solution that gives optimal asset coverage and at the same time address the evolving threat landscape and compliance requirements? How can organisations demonstrate the value of SOC investment to board level stakeholders? How do organisations choose the correct operating model (outsource, in-source, and hybrid) to run and maintain a SOC?
Sandip Wadje, Practice Leader for SOC Consulting at Dell SecureWorks, will help answer these questions and provide pragmatic next steps to rolling out an effective SOC.
Key Webcast Topics and Takeaways:
•The blueprint for an effective SOC
•SOC tools and integration
•Metrics and reporting
•Choosing the right operating model

Ron Kiss, Senior Security Consultant, Dell SecureWorks
The use of Cloud Computing technology has seen a recent spike in popularity with spend estimated at 25% of all annual IT expenditure growth in 2012 and nearly a third of growth in 2013. With the efficiencies it provides, businesses are clambering to find ways of leveraging its advantage for all types of online business functions, including processing card payments. However, unambiguous information on the Payment Cards Industry (PCI) compliance implications of this new technology are unclear for organisations moving to the cloud.
This has resulted in much confusion of what compliance means for business and assessors alike. In February this year, the PCI SSC published the Cloud Computing Information Supplement with provides a greater level of clarity for businesses and assessors alike.
Ron Kiss, Senior Consultant At Dell SecureWorks, will discuss how to incorporate what has been learned from the Information Supplement into a successful PCI program for your organisation's and its complex cloud environment.

Mark Wood, Director of Product Management
More and more organisations are turning to cloud computing to solve their biggest technology and business challenges. By this stage, most of us are aware of the many benefits cloud has to offer: lower hardware and IT costs, ease of management and increased agility, to name a few. Yet when it comes to security, cloud is not a silver bullet. In fact, according to the Cloud Security Alliance, security is cited as the number one barrier to adoption of cloud services among organisations.
During this webcast, Mark Wood, Director of Product Management at Dell SecureWorks, will discuss some of the prevalent security risks which exist when moving to the cloud and how this affects the traditional approach to security.
This webcast will address the following key themes:
•The security impact of different cloud models and minimising risk in a multi-tenant environment
•Sharing the security burden and establishing an effective relationship with your cloud provider.
•Staying one step ahead of the evolving compliance landscape.

Risk assessment and threat identification: Guidance on PCI requirement 6.2
Mar 6 2013
25 mins
Ron Kiss, Principal Consultant
Merchants are now required to have a process in place to identify and risk rank newly-discovered vulnerabilities in order to be PCI compliant.

How to Update a Kitchen to Attract Buyers
By Patti Stern, PJ & Co. Staging and Interior Decorating
Kitchens are more important than ever when it comes to influencing buyers' perceptions of a home as well as the perceived value. Some home owners make it a priority to invest in remodeling key rooms to increase the value of their home for when they are ready to sell. However, sellers who are pressed for time and need to get their homes on the market fast can still achieve the look of a remodel by giving their outdated kitchen a modern face lift that will engage buyers without breaking the bank.
The kitchen featured below was designed for a couple that wanted their dream kitchen to enjoy but kept the look classic in the event they decide to sell down the road. The key to managing their budget was to follow the existing blue print and add some modern updates.
When selling, there are many ways home owners can update key kitchen features while staying within a budget. Painting, new appliances, lighting, and updating cabinet hardware are just some examples of inexpensive fixes worth every penny to attract buyers.
The following are some examples of PJ & Company's staging projects that feature simple improvements such as painting cabinets, upgrading appliances, and installing new light fixtures that give these kitchens a remodeled appearance like our dream kitchen above.
The kitchen cabinet transformation
Our favorite fix for dated cabinets is paint. Using bright white paint to cover outdated, dark wood cabinets gives this kitchen (pictured below) a modern facelift. Other cosmetic fixes to enhance the look include replacing cabinet hardware with sleek, brushed nickel knobs and handles. Adding a few modern accessories like the small sisal rug provides a relaxed and inviting Pottery Barn-look.
Update fixtures and appliances
The right lighting is a critical part of any space but is most important in the kitchen for functionality. These industrial style pendant lights are a perfect example of a simple update that adds a twist of contemporary style with sophisticated appeal.
As more people are tuning in to watch cooking programs on television these days, they are seeing sleek kitchen appliances and fixtures, which are growing in popularity particularly among young buyers. If your appliances are outdated or in disrepair, consider replacing or servicing them. If you decide to replace, keep in mind that retailers will often give a discount when buying multiple new appliances.
The single lever faucet, the stainless steel stove, and floating hood are another example of an upgrade that completes the state of the art look of the room. There is a range of options available to choose from that will give a high-end look that will appeal to buyers.
Invest in countertops
Repair or replace counters that are cracked, stained, or dated. If replacing, consider one of our favorite materials: Quartz (used for the island in our kitchen remodel). Quartz has become a growing alternative to granite and marble. It comes in a variety of colors and styles that provide both a custom appeal along with durability.
Update flooring
Nothing says dated more than worn carpeting, scuffed hardwood floors, and cracked tile. If your kitchen floor is dull and has lost its luster, first try to clean, use wax linoleum, re-grout, replace missing tiles, and polish hardwoods. If there are too many imperfections, there are a variety of low cost tiles that are both affordable and durable. There are also many synthetic options to choose from that mimic the look of hardwood floors in our kitchen remodel, as well as stone or marble finishes.

One Indispensable Habit to Help Standout
By Lee Davenport
As a young real estate pro, you may be stumped on how you can standout in a sea of agents, particularly when some of those agents have more than 30 years of sales experience. Unfortunately, as a broker and trainer, I have witnessed younger agents, whether new to real estate or not, lambasted for their lack of experience in both life and sales. In those sad instances, lack of experience becomes "larger than life," which myopically and erroneously become the only skill trait that matters. I marvel and cringe in those situations, but I am quick to interject with a vital characteristic that can trump experience any day of the week – a characteristic that can help a rookie agent land a listing and make a sale that the veteran missed out on.
Before I come right out and say what this imperative sales trait is, check out the following statistics and see if you can guess what it is:
- Real estate is the second most searched topic on social media but ranks lower than the government in response rates, according to Sprout Social's Consumer Engagement Index. (As sluggish as the government can be, this is deplorable!)
- According to Real Trends 2013 Online Performance Study, 89 percent of consumers say response time was very important when choosing their agent.
- The Real Trends study also says 45 percent of consumers expect an initial response from an online inquiry within 15 minutes.
- And 56 percent of consumers expect a response from their agent within 30 minutes, according the the Real Trends study.
- Yet according to the 2014 National Association of REALTORS® report, The Intelligent Internet Lead, the average agent response time was about 15 hours. (Is anyone else gasping for air?)
I am sure you guessed it – the quintessential skill to possess that can actually make experience pale in comparison is responsiveness. When you are a well-trained agent (whether young, middle aged, or in your golden years) who exudes professionalism and makes responsive communication your point of differentiation, you win!
Here are four reasons why responsiveness should become your new normal, if it isn't already:
1. You expect it.
The hallmarks of professionalism are doing what you say you will do and timely follow-up. You expect (and probably even demand) this when dealing both in and outside of the real estate arena, so let's practice what we preach. Make the very crux of your professionalism be responsiveness. How many times have you chosen a product or service provider because he was "Johnny-on-the-Spot"? Perhaps your favorite lender does not have 30 years of experience but she follows up promptly. So for you, and probably many others, responsiveness trumps experience. Or, on the personal side, maybe your dog sitter never ignores your oddball requests, even if he cannot accommodate you each and every time. Responsiveness can go a long way in clinching new clients and making sure that past clients choose and refer you again and again.
2. It gives a boost to your reviews.
Time and time again, positive online reviews give an agent a powerful online footprint and virtual legacy that is hard to erase. Many of us buy products or choose services in our personal lives now because of the sentiments expressed in online reviews. The real estate industry is no different. But if you have ever had a hard time getting current and past clients to post a glowing review of you, maybe, just maybe, they were not impressed with your level of professionalism and they are taking the high road of not saying anything if they cannot say anything nice. This, of course, is not the only reason our clients elect to not be our online "raving fans" – sometimes they are too busy or maybe there were other glitches in their transaction that left them sour. But when all else goes well, check and see if your responsiveness was not up to par and work on it going forward.
3. Other agents are hungry.
It is no big deal if you connect with an inquiring real estate prospect in a few hours or the next business day, right? Well, if you are absolutely the only agent and online portal system servicing your entire area, then you may have that luxury. But more likely than not, you are not the only agent left on Earth or the only way for information about a real estate property to be obtained. Translation = you have competition.
Hopefully, you have been on the receiving end and not the losing side of being the first to connect with a prospective buyer or seller that delivered the critical three Cs (Client, Closing, and Commission). But whatever your historical stance has been, choose now to be on #TeamResponsive and respond to ALL inquiries within the desired 15-minute window to increase your chances of converting ominous leads to actual clients that close and generate commissions for you.
4. Automation is easier and less expensive than back in the day.
It is 2015, so there are no excuses to not respond to EVERY inquiry within minutes. Why? Because of automation! Automation is painless, fairly inexpensive, and, frankly, half the battle. You still have to build rapport but this makes it easier. IT not only puts you in the running to capture a new client, but may very well push you to the front of the pack.
And let's address the elephant in the room: As much as agents do not want certain web portals taking their leads, those portals have automated their responses. We are in a responsive, drive-thru age so many folks want what they want, when they want it. Technology allows us to accommodate this without losing our sanity and neglecting our families so let's use it.
Texting is no longer taboo in the home buying and selling process for many. If you have not taken the time to do it yet, I encourage you, as a bare minimum, to make sure you have canned text messages (for unknown numbers as well as those that may be current clients, vendors, friends, etc.) that can be sent to every caller.
Have you tried IFTTT yet? This handy app can help you automate responses from your phone.
With emails and your various online sites, go back to turning on your autoresponder or use services like ManyContacts or MailChimp to send fancier looking emails to specific contacts from specific places.
If you have it in your budget, hire a receptionist or the more cost-effective option of a virtual receptionist. Services like Odesk and VoicePad Phone offer affordable and professional options.
There really is no limit to the tools you can use for automation, so I encourage you to explore them online today and also share in the comment section below the ones that work miracles for you.

The Room Millennials Say Is Essential – and Why You Should Stage It
By Melissa Dittmann Tracey, REALTOR® Magazine
Millennials may be willing to sacrifice extra square footage in a home and even features like an outdoor kitchens or two-story foyer. But there's one thing they say they aren't willing to sacrifice in a new home: A separate laundry room.
A separate laundry room clearly topped the list when the National Association of Home Builders recently surveyed millennials to discover what their "most-wanted" item on their home shopping list was. Fifty-five percent said they wouldn't buy a new home that didn't have a separate laundry room. They also ranked storage as important, such as linen closets, a walk-in pantry, and garage storage.
With the laundry room weighing so much on millennials' buying decisions, you may want to take a closer look at the way you're presenting the laundry room in your listings. Could it use a freshen up? And if it's such a selling point, you may want to add a photo of your staged laundry room to your MLS photos.
Take a look at some of these photos from the remodeling site Houzz to get ideas on freshening up your listings' laundry rooms.
- Try a soft paint color — accented with white painted cabinets and trim — to make the space look larger and even cleaner. Enhance with some under-the-cabinet lights that shine on the countertops. (The paint featured in the picture below: Benjamin Moore, Comet)
- Fresh flowers, bright colored curtains, and even wallpaper behind the cabinets may make the space more inviting.
- Wherever there are cubbies, add wicker baskets. Hang a few clothes on wooden hangers to show off the storage options. And if the storage options even include a place for the family's pet, accent that in a lower cubby too with a stylish pillow cushion.
- If the laundry room is small, add a wooden block over the washer and dryer to squeeze in a folding station.
- Stack a washer and dryer to maximize space in a small area and to make room for some cubbies and shelves. Keep the shelves neat and staged, such as by folding light-colored towels. Keep the laundry accessories displayed to a minimum.

Charlie's Burgers: European Vacation
First bugs, now Britain: Cloak-and-dagger dining is more expensive, and adventurous, than ever
|Report an Error
Share via Email
View 3 photoszoom
There's a perceived cachet in having attended a dinner at underground supper club Charlie's Burgers. Not since StarKist Tuna's mascot has a fictitious Charlie so confounded the line between good taste and tasting good.
Since the club's first dinner in early 2009, the price of the event has steadily risen. A March 2009 dinner at The Department gallery cost $110. There was only a slight increase for Jonathan Gushue's $115 meal on Oct. 26, 2009. The all-insect menu by Matt Binkley and Jeff Stewart on Jan. 24, 2010 jumped to $155. Then for Jamie Kennedy's meal in March, it was $180, an amount you'd find difficult to spend at his restaurant, where you can make a reservation without qualifying through an online questionnaire. After climbing to $190 for Matt DeMille's horse-themed dinner last month, Mr. Burger has gone international, with a price to match.
The latest offering is a pair of meals, on July 30 and 31 in London and Paris, for a total cost of $990.
Love or hate the eponymous, enigmatic and anonymous Charlie, he's got big matzo balls.
While exceptions might be made on a case-by-case basis, the meals are a package deal. Usually, the venues are a surprise, revealed at the last-minute. Eighteen to 22 diners will attend what's billed as London Calling and The French Connection: customized meals by celebrated chefs Fergus Henderson and Laurent Delarbre at St. John Restaurant in London and La Tour D'Argent in Paris.
"I chose these restaurants based on the fact that they are both great expressions of a specific culinary style," says Charlie by email. "St. John is a great expression of the nouveau British cuisine and La Tour D'Argent is a perfect expression of the long-standing French culinary traditions."
The meals necessitate the purchase of multiple plane tickets and hotel rooms.
"If you are already all the way over there, one meal seems like a bit of tease, no?" says Charlie. "The original idea also included a third meal in Spain, but I ran into timing issues."
It would seem that attendance at Charlie's Burgers, once a marker of urban dining street cred, has become a sport of the wealthy.
"Not at all," says Charlie. "Some of the initial responses I have received are from CB members I know well and they are not super affluent people. Just diehard eaters." He expects the guests to be a mix of Canadians and Europeans. "The first people to respond were London CB members. They were also begging to bring more of their friends to the dinners."
A consistent theme of correspondence with Charlie is the rising ticket price for his underground dinners.
"When you tell a chef to go crazy and prepare anything he/she wants it often results in the finest ingredients available," Charlie wrote last September. Mindful of costs, he promised to design events at a "much lower price point."
He had been nervous about the insect dinner with unknown chefs and a $155 sticker cost. "But boundaries are made to be pushed."
Once invitations were sent for that meal, Charlie received roughly 500 replies for 30 seats at the dining table.
At this latest, wig-flipping inflation, Charlie maintains the gourmand's interest above all else.
"Optically it seems like the price has gone up for no reason."
That's not the case, he says. "Quality of ingredients has increased, number of courses has increased and calibre of wines has also increased." Previous dinners have included extras such as take away dessert boxes, preserves by chefs and bathrooms stocked with beer, next to the hand sanitizer.
"I will roll out some cheaper priced menus," Charlie promises.
He will only say that one idea involves burgers. "Yes, Charlie Burger will be doing a burger event. I said too much already."

App.net: A paid real-time social platform that shouldn't seem as crazy as it does
By Tim Hanlon
August 10, 2012
Can you imagine a service like Twitter without advertising, spammers and URL shorteners? Without clunky official clients, and without hostility towards the third-party ecosystem? The 12 strong team at App.net can, and they think enough people are willing to pay for such a service to make it work.
"Our philosophy is that we are pipes pushing bits," says App.net founder Dalton Caldwell. In other words, App.net is to social media what Amazon Web Services is to the rest of the web - a platform for you to build your application on (making the App.net name itself sheer genius). And unlike Twitter, you're not likely to have your business model implemented as an official feature or just be an unwanted nuisance.
Instead of using Kickstarter to raise the required $500,000, the team built its own crowd-funding system and is currently 68% of the way to the goal with three days left on the clock, thanks to over 4,800 backers.
My words do this concept little justice, so I urge you to read Caldwell's blog posts - What Twitter could have been - and the follow up - Announcing an audacious proposal.
If you're keen to back the project and secure your username, you can do so at join.app.net.
Caldwell discusses the thinking behind App.net in the following video.
Chicken/egg. I am not going to join something until enough people join it, I certainly am not going to pay for something that no one is using. I think this product could develop a cult like status, but marketing, spam and what not will make its way into it. I'll stick to Facebook for now.Facebook User
10th August, 2012 @ 02:32 am PDT
So they are basically cloning the Facebook news feed and oauth/permissions system?
As an app publisher, Facebook is free to integrate with; app.net charges money. Facebook has many users looking at the news feed; these guys have few users, and little incentive to look at the essentially app/game only feed. Even twitter provides oauth and story publishing, and has even more eyeballs to encourage people to try your app.
I can't see what theses guys are offering thats at all of value to a developer; and they are charging for it!Mark Churchill

ART IN REVIEW; 'Italy: Spaces and Places'
By GRACE GLUECK
Published: April 30, 2004
Robert Mann Gallery
210 11th Avenue, near 25th Street
Through May 8
Layered with architectural and other evidence of bygone civilizations, Italy is a paradise for photographers with a feeling for the past's impact on the present. This show sets out the work of seven Italians: Olivo Barbieri, Gabriele Basilico, Guido Guidi, Mimmo Jodice, Martino Marangoni, Massimo Vitali and Silvio Wolf. Their photographs were chosen by Charles H. Traub, author of a 1988 book devoted to their work.
The subject matter is pretty laissez-faire, ranging from ancient ruins like the Colosseum to a soccer stadium and a study of geometric patterns made by a skylight. The skylight photographer (Mr. Wolf) has even pressed into service the lead-in of a roll of color film, producing from it a total abstraction, horizontally divided between yellow and black. It is titled -- what else? -- ''Horizon.''
Among the more classically oriented work is that of Mr. Basilico, whose black-and-white shots of the Arch of Constantine and the raw, crumbling interior of the Colosseum (replete with tourists) point up how, in countries older than the United States, the past is encouraged to hang around. Today and prehistoric times come together in Mr. Barbieri's ''Stadio Palermo,'' an almost panoramic color view of a soccer game with an audience that has as its background austere tiers of ancient, rocky hills.
The impingement of industry on old land is marked by Mr. Guidi, whose color photograph ''Rimini Nord, October'' shows a slag heap and a mess of tar pouring from a huge barrel mounted on a wall in an otherwise lovely countryscape. In his poignant black-and-white ''Roma, 1993,'' Mr. Marangoni portrays a venerable and a modern wreck together: an abandoned aqueduct and the broken body of an old car in the weeds nearby.
As a glimpse of Italian photography today, this show doesn't seem to be the strongest that could be mounted, but it has as a prime advantage Italy's incorrigibly photogenic face. GRACE GLUECK

How do I do a quote box?
ms_minnamouseMay 24, 2010
When people copy people's quotes on here, they usually put them in some kind of a box or something. I can't figure out how they're doing it. Anybody want to let me in on the secret?
See link.
Here is a link that might be useful: How to make block quote
Richard (chuggerguy)
can easily become this: Copy/Paste quote here.
Skipping the image would look like this:
Yes, "blockquote", or maybe "cite". What I do is save little reusable templates as text files.
For example, this:
