Associate Professor of Art History
, Art and Design History and Theory
I am a scholar of postwar and contemporary art history and theory, and hold a joint appointment in the Dept. of Arts, Lang College, and the School of Art and Design History and Theory at Parsons. My research interests trace the radical transformation of the art object in the postwar era, including the emergence of non-traditional, time-based media; performance strategies and their relationship to technologies of reproduction (including video and sound); and the development of linguistically-based artworks. My more recent scholarship engages the socio-economic conditions of contemporary art, in particular in relationship to the collapse of the Cold War and the advent of globalization; as well as the impact of social media. I have also maintained a longstanding profile as a critic and independent curator, where I seek to apply my scholarship to critical texts and exhibitions that reach a broader audience outside the academy.

How to Apply:
I need help finding a moisturizer, without sunscreen, for my teen son, 14 years old. He has normal to dry skin with an occasional breakout. Mostly a few blackheads in the T zone area.
He does a good job of washing his face. Uses deep pore cleanser and cross training sunscreen.
I just ordered him lip balm and eye cream (dark circles hereditary).
Please help me decide on a moisturizer for him that won't be too strong or too heavy. I'm hoping that he will add moisturizing into his routine in am and pm. I have tried with other products I have but he complains about the smells. I assume this is because those products are more for women?? Maybe a men's product, smell wouldn't bother him??
Thank you, I appreciate you taking time to help me with this ;)

Kachina Doll (Kokopol)
Kokopelli is one of several spiritual beings, identified as Kachinas, who live among the Hopi during a six-month religious cycle each year. Depicted with a humpback full of seeds and normally unclothed, Kokopelli represents fertility for all life forms. In the Hopi tradition, men become these spirits by donning the specific Kachina religious paraphernalia. While performing rituals and dances, these spiritual Kachinas may give Kachina dolls to women, girls, and young boys in order to include them in the ceremonies, protect them, and assist their learning the Hopi religion.

By ANGIE CARNATHAN
The Mississippi State University's Student Dietetic Association, a part of the Department of Food Science, Nutrition and Health Promotion, is doing its part to help stock food pantries across North Mississippi this holiday season.
The group held a Sweet Potato Drop on Friday. Volunteers were on hand in the Palmeiro Center parking lot to help bag 20,000 lbs of sweet potatoes and load them onto trucks and trailers. The sweet potatoes were donated from farmers across the state and the Sweet Potato Council. Workers from several campus organizations, such as Food Science, the College of Agriculture and Life Science Ambassadors, Collegiate 4-H, Service DAWGS and various sororities and fraternities, gave of their time to help with the effort.
SDA Community Service Chair Jillian McNeese said the project was started in 2007.
"Potatoes are a really important part of someone's diet," McNeese said. "I think it's great that we can make fresh produce available to food pantries that may not receive them regularly."
Juan Silva, the interim department head of food science, nutrition and health promotion, said the project is intended to support churches and organizations who take care of those less fortunate in our area.
"I think it's important that we take care of people in our area who depend on food pantries and churches to help feed their families," Silva said. "Sweet potatoes are rich in vitamin B and keratin and also very rich in fiber. They are a staple to any diet. They provide some carbohydrates for calories but also very nutritious."
Arthur Lewis Jr. was collecting potatoes to take back to St. James United Methodist Church in Amory.
"There are so many people who need our help, and this is such a huge blessing for them," Lewis said. "People love getting fresh produce. The first time I took an 18 wheeler of potatoes back to my church, I thought it would take a week or so to give them out, but that truck was empty after one day."
Chiquita Briley, assistant professor in the department of food science, nutrition and health promotion, has helped organize the project from the beginning.
"One thing we always talk about is how important it is to have a mixture of food in a healthy diet, and being able to provide fresh food to these pantries is so important," Briley said. "This is an opportunity for us to give them something nutrient-dense that they can provide to their families."
Briley said the potatoes will be divided up between 12-13 food pantries and churches across North Mississippi. Although the group puts on other food drives throughout the year, but the Sweet Potato Drop is their biggest event.
"Right now Mississippi is third in the nation for people who deal with a questionable food supply in their home," Briley said. "Even though the economy seems to be getting better, we are actually seeing more and more people who are relying on food pantries. This is due to the fact that although they may have a job, they are usually low wage jobs, so even though people are working, it is still very difficult for them to stretch that low income and be able to put food on the table for their families."
Briley said children are usually the most vulnerable to food insecurity.
"We're seeing a lot more children coming in with their parents, we're seeing a lot of children in Mississippi go hungry," Briley said. "Having enough to eat should not be a luxury."

The word green is closely related to the Old English verb growan, "to grow". It is used to describe plants or the ocean. Sometimes it can also describe someone who is inexperienced, jealous, or sick. In America, green is a slang term for money, among other things. Several colloquialisms have derived from these meanings, such as "green around the gills", a phrase used to describe a person who looks ill.
Several minerals have a green color, including the emerald, which is colored green by its chromium content. Animals such as frogs, lizards, and other reptiles and amphibians, fish, insects, and birds, appear green because of a mixture of layers of blue and green coloring on their skin. By far the largest contributor to green in nature is chlorophyll, the chemical by which plants photosynthesize. Many creatures have adapted to their green environments by taking on a green hue themselves as camouflage.
Culturally, green has broad and sometimes contradictory meanings. In some cultures, green symbolizes hope and growth, while in others, it is associated with death, sickness, envy or the devil. The most common associations, however, are found in its ties to nature. For example, Islam venerates the color, as it expects paradise to be full of lush greenery. Green is also associated with regeneration, fertility and rebirth for its connections to nature. Recent political groups have taken on the color as symbol of environmental protection and social justice, and consider themselves part of the Green movement, some naming themselves Green parties. This has led to similar campaigns in advertising, as companies have sold green, or environmentally friendly, products.
The word green comes from the Old English word grene, or, in its older form, groeni. This adjective is closely related to the Old English verb growan ("to grow') and goes back into Western Germanic and Scandinavian languages. The word designates the color on the visible light spectrum situated between blue and yellow. It is often used to describe foliage and the sea, and has become a symbol of environmentalism. It also is combined with other color names to increase specificity, as in "blue-green", or with objects, as in "emerald green". Green is also used to describe jealousy and envy, as well as anyone young, inexperienced, or gullible (probably by analogy to unripe, i.e. unready or immature, fruit). Green is sometimes associated with nausea and sickness. Lastly, green can communicate safety to proceed, as in traffic lights. Overall, greens, along with blues and purples, are frequently described as "cool" colors, in contrast to red and yellow. Some languages have no word separating green from blue (see blue-green across cultures).
The word green is found in several colloquial phrases derived from these meanings: in golf, the region of grass around the hole is trimmed short and referred to as the putting green, or simply, the green. Someone who works well with plants is said to have a green thumb or green fingers, a physically-ill person is said to look green around the gills, and the word greenhorn refers to an inexperienced person. A company is greenwashing if they advertise positive environmental practices to cover up environmental destruction. Green with envy highlights another emotional association, which William Shakespeare had first described as the "green-eyed monster" in Othello and The Merchant of Venice.
In areas that use the U.S. Dollar as currency, green carries a connotation of money, wealth, and capitalism, because green is the color of United States banknotes, giving rise to the slang term greenback for cash. One of the more notable uses of this meaning is found in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. In this story is the Emerald City, where everyone wears tinted glasses which make everything look green. According to the populist interpretation of the story, the city's color is used by the author, L. Frank Baum, to illustrate the financial system of America in his day, as he lived in a time when America was debating the use of paper money versus gold.
Human eyes have color receptors known as cone cells, of which there are three types. In some cases, one is missing or faulty, which can cause color blindness, including the common inability to distinguish red and yellow from green, known as deuteranopia or red–green color blindness. Green is restful to the eye. Studies show that a green environment can reduce fatigue.
The perception of green is evoked by light having a spectrum dominated by energy with a wavelength of roughly 520–570 nm. The sensitivity of the dark-adapted human eye is greatest at about 507 nm, a blue-green color, while the light-adapted eye is most sensitive about 555 nm, a slightly yellowish green; these are the peak locations of the rod and cone (scotopic and photopic, respectively) luminosity functions.
Green is considered one of the additive primary colors, along with red and blue. Additive combination of primary colors can produce most colors. In subtractive color mixtures, green is created by mixing yellow and blue pigments or dyes. On the HSV color wheel, the complement of green is magenta; that is, a color corresponding to an equal mixture of red and blue light (one of the purples). On a traditional color wheel, based on subtractive color, the complementary color to green is considered to be red.
Many minerals provide pigments which have been used in green paints and dyes over the centuries. Pigments, in this case, are minerals which reflect the color green, rather that emitting it through luminescent or phosphorescent qualities. The large number of green pigments makes it impossible to mention them all. Among the more famous green minerals, however is the emerald, which is colored green by trace amounts of chromium and sometimes vanadium. Chromium(III) oxide (Cr2O3), is called chrome green, also called viridian or institutional green when used as a pigment. For many years, the source of amazonite's color was a mystery. Naturally, many people assumed the color was due to copper because copper compounds often have blue and green colors. More recent studies suggest that the blue-green color results from small quantities of lead and water in the feldspar. Copper is also the source of the green color in malachite pigments, chemically known as basic copper(II) carbonate. Early painters would also use copper in the form of verdigris mixed with wax and turpentine to create green pigmentation in paints. Mixtures of oxidized cobalt and zinc were also used to create green paints as early as the 18th century. A more complete list of green minerals and pigments can be seen here
There is no natural source for green food colorings which has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Chlorophyll, the E numbers E140 and E141, is the most common green chemical found in nature, and only allowed in certain medicines and cosmetic materials. Quinoline Yellow (E104) is a commonly used coloring in the United Kingdom but is banned in Australia, Japan, Norway and the United States. Green S (E142) is prohibited in many countries, for it is known to cause hyperactivity, asthma, urticaria, and insomnia.
To create green sparks, fireworks use barium salts, such as barium chlorate, barium nitrate crystals, or barium chloride, also used for green fireplace logs. Copper salts typically burn blue, but cupric chloride (also known as "campfire blue") can also produce green flames. Green pyrotechnic flares can use a mix ratio 75:25 of boron and potassium nitrate. Smoke can be turned green by a mixture: solvent yellow 33, solvent green 3, lactose, magnesium carbonate plus sodium carbonate added to potassium chlorate.
Green is common in nature, especially in plants. Many plants are green mainly because of a complex chemical known as chlorophyll which is involved in photosynthesis. Some animals are green: these include some frogs, toads, some turtles, some lizards and amphibians, some snakes, some birds such as parrots, caterpillars and some insects such as praying mantis. Green algae and green plankton are important food sources at the bottom of the food chain. Most fish, reptiles, amphibians, and birds appear green because of a reflection of blue light coming through an over-layer of yellow pigment. Perception of color can also be effected by the environment surrounding. For example, broadleaf forests typically have a yellow-green light about them as the trees filter the light. Turacoverdin is one chemical which can cause a green hue in birds, especially. Invertebrates, such as insects or mollusks, often display green colors because of Porphyrin pigments, sometimes caused by diet. This can causes their feces to look green as well. Other chemicals which generally contribute to greenness among organisms are flavins (lychochromes) and hemanovadin. Animals typically use the color green as camouflage, blending in with the chlorophyll green of the surrounding environment. Humans have imitated this by wearing green clothing as a camouflage in military and other fields. Substances that may impart a greenish hue to one's skin include biliverdin, the green pigment in bile, and ceruloplasmin, a protein that carries copper ions in chelation.
In many folklores and literatures, green has traditionally been used to symbolize nature and its embodied attributes, namely those of life, fertility, and rebirth. Green was symbolic of resurrection and immortality in Ancient Egypt; the god Osiris was depicted as green-skinned. Stories of the medieval period further portray it as representing love and the base, natural desires of man. Green is also known to have signified witchcraft, devilry and evil for its association with faeries and spirits of early English folklore. It also had an association with decay and toxicity. Actor Bela Lugosi wore green-hued makeup for the role of Dracula in the 1927-28 Broadway stage production. The color, when combined with gold, is seen as representing the fading away of youth. In the Celtic tradition, green was avoided in clothing for its superstitious association with misfortune and death. Green is thought to be an unlucky color in British and British-derived cultures, where green cars, wedding dresses, and theater costumes are all the objects of superstition. In high schools in the United States during the 1960s, it was widely believed that if someone wore green on Thursdays, it meant that they were homosexual. Spider-Man villains were often colored green to represent a contrast to the hero's red.
Green has become the symbolic color of environmentalism, chosen for its association with nature, health, and growth. The Green Party is any of various political parties emphasizing ecology, grassroots democracy, nonviolence, and social justice. Green Parties, now active in over one hundred countries, are more broadly included in the green movement, and most are members of the Global Green Network.
The association of green with advocates of the environment has extended to other circles as well, as is the case with Patriarch Bartholomew I of Constantinople, who is often referred to as the "Green Patriarch" because the new environmental focus which he brought about within the Ecumenical Patriarchate.
Several countries use green on their flags for symbolic or cultural reasons. Green, for example is one of the three colors (along with red and black, or red and gold)) of Pan-Africanism. Several African countries thus use the color on their flags, including South Africa, Ghana, Senegal, Mali, Ethiopia, Togo, Guinea, Benin, and Zimbabwe. The Pan-African colors are borrowed from the Ethiopian flag, one of the oldest independent African countries. Green in these cases represents the natural richness of Africa.
Many flags of the Islamic world are green, as the color is considered sacred in Islam. The flag of Libya consists of a simple green field with no other characteristics. It is the only national flag in the world with just one color and no design, insignia, or other details.
Other countries use flags for reasons of heraldry, or to represent lush national vegetation. In heraldry, green is called vert (French for "green"). Fourteenth century documents describe vert as a symbol of "jolliness and youth, but also of beauty and shame" as well as of death. Vert is used for the flags of Wales and Hungary, and is the basis for the Brazilian flag as well. Other countries using green in their flags use it to represent their country's lush vegetation, as in the flag of Jamaica, and hope in the future, as in the flag of Nigeria.
Green is one of the bottom of the three bands on the Flag of India. The green stands for fertility and prosperity, though initially before it came into being, it stood for Islam, the second-most predominant religion in India.
Green is a symbol of Ireland, which is often referred to as the "Emerald Isle". The color is particularly identified with the republican and nationalist traditions in modern times. It is used this way on the flag of the Republic of Ireland, in balance with white and the Protestant orange. Green is a strong trend in the Irish holiday St. Patrick's Day.
Green is considered the traditional color of Islam, likewise because of its association with nature. This is for several reasons. First, Muhammad is reliably quoted in a hadith as saying that "water, greenery, and a beautiful face" were three universally good things. In the Qur'an, sura Al-Insan, believers in God in Paradise wear fine green silk. Also, Al-Khidr ("The Green One"), is a Qur'anic figure who met and traveled with Moses. The flag of Hamas, as well as the flag of Iran, is green, symbolizing their Islamist ideology.
In the metaphysics of the "New Age Prophetess", Alice Bailey, in her system called the Seven Rays which classifies humans into seven different metaphysical psychological types, the "third ray" of "creative intelligence" is represented by the color green. People who have this metaphysical psychological type are said to be "on the Green Ray". In Hinduism, Green is used to symbolically represent the fourth, heart chakra (Anahata). Psychics who claim to be able to observe the aura with their third eye report that someone with a green aura is typically someone who is in an occupation related to health, such as a physician or nurse, as well as people who are lovers of nature and the outdoors.
Also, Roman Catholic and more traditional Protestant clergy wear green vestments at liturgical celebrations during Ordinary Time. In the Eastern Catholic Church, green is the color of Pentecost. Green is one of the Christmas colors as well, possibly dating back to pre-Christian times, when evergreens were worshipped for their ability to maintain their color through the winter season. Romans used green holly and evergreen as decorations for their winter solstice celebration called Saturnalia, which eventually evolved into a Christmas celebration.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Calgary Flames (14-21-6) at Colorado Avalanche (26-11-4), 9 p.m.
(SportsNetwork.com) - The young guns have been showing up for the Colorado Avalanche on their longest homestand of the season.
The Avs take aim at a fourth consecutive victory on Monday night as they take on a Calgary Flames club that is hoping a quick road trip can get its offense on track.
Colorado has won three in a row since opening its seven-game homestand with an overtime loss to Winnipeg on Dec. 29. The Avalanche's latest victory came on Saturday, a 4-3 decision over the San Jose Sharks that was closer than it needed to be.
Jamie McGinn, Erik Johnson and Nathan MacKinnon all scored during a 1:06 span early in the second period to put Colorado up 4-0 before San Jose scored the final three goals of the game.
Semyon Varlamov, though, came up with 30 saves as the Avalanche were able to hold on.
"We had a real good first half of the game. We stayed with the puck and played well against a very good team," said Avalanche head coach Patrick Roy. "Obviously after that, we lost our focus a bit. They were pressing in the third, and we were defending too much without pressing back."
Roy's club improved to 26-11-4 on the season, matching the 2000-01 Stanley Cup-winning squad for the most victories through 41 games in franchise history.
MacKinnon also scored in the first period on Saturday to notch his first career multi-goal game in the NHL. The first overall selection of the 2013 draft has 12 goals and 14 assists in 41 games this season, with four goals and five points over his past four games.
The 18-year-old is looking to stay hot along with 21-year-old captain Gabriel Landeskog, who had an assist versus the Sharks to push his point streak to six games in a row.
Landeskog, selected second overall in the 2011 draft, has three goals and four assists over his run as well as 30 points in 40 games this season.
The Flames, meanwhile, come into this meeting with an offense that is ice cold.
Calgary dropped four in a row to close out a five-game homestand that began with a 4-3 shootout win over the St. Louis Blues. The Flames were shut out three times over the four-game skid and scored just one goal in the other setback.
It could have been a successful stay at home for the Flames as they have allowed just 10 goals over the four straight losses. They were beaten 2-0 by Tampa Bay on Friday to end the residency.
Karri Ramo made 27 saves for Calgary, which ranks 29th out of 30 teams in the NHL with 2.27 goals per game.
"We are wasting great goaltending performances," said Flames head coach Bob Hartley. "I thought we played a decent first period. We managed to stay in the game then a few bad penalties. The sad part of this is we killed them off and they got us a few seconds later so that put us right on our heels. As we all know we are a very fragile group right now."
Ramo will get the start again tonight for Calgary and has lost all three of his previous starts versus Colorado, including two this season, while posting a 2.71 goals against average.
Roy will start Jean-Sebastien Giguere, who is 19-13-1 with two ties and a 2.33 GAA lifetime versus the Flames. He has lost three starts in a row since beating the Flames on Dec. 6 with 26 saves.
Giguere, though, was hammered for seven goals on 24 shots over two periods in his most recent appearance on Dec. 27 in a loss to Chicago.

The valedictorian at Princeton University almost every year is a student who majored in math, engineering or one of the sciences, not a student who majored in the liberal arts. Why? The answer makes sense if you think about it.
The subject matter of math, engineering and the sciences tends to be more objective, or black and white, than that of the liberal arts. In a math class, for example, every homework, quiz, test and final exam problem will have a single correct answer. All a student needs to do is calculate and record the correct answer (more…)

Ergonomics Students Win International Competition
$500 Grant Will Further Students' Research on Workstation Hazards
|Rhoda Kuziez (right) measures the posture of research partner, Xue Liu (left).
ST. LOUIS - Second year master's students from Saint Louis University's School of Public Health, Xue Liu and Rhoda Kuziez, are standing tall after receiving a competitive grant from the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) for their progject on ergonomic assessments of posture at computer workstations. The students were one of only three teams worldwide to win the award.
Liu and Kuziez got the idea for their project last spring as part of an environmental and occupational health course they were taking. The students took field measurements of working posture of student employees in Saint Louis University's Salus Center and evaluated the potential ergonomic hazards they were exposed to in their computer workstations.
When we think about hazards in the workplace, we don't normally think about posture. However, if left uncorrected, awkward body posture can lead to discomfort and strain injuries called Musculoskeletal Disorders and Repetitive Strain Injuries. The purpose of ergonomic research is to design workplace environments that better fit the user and reduce the risk of strain or injuries.
In addition to measuring posture, the students also had research participants fill out surveys to measure their awareness of ergonomics.
"Awareness of ergonomics is key," Liu said. "People often have pain, but don't know where it's coming from. The solution could be as simple as tilting a computer monitor or adjusting a chair, but many people just aren't aware."
With the assistance and mentorship of their course instructor, Kee Hean Ong, Ph.D., assistant professor of environmental and occupational health, Liu and Kuziez submitted their research to ASTM, a globally recognized leader in the development and delivery of international voluntary consensus standards. Their research landed them a $500 grant from ASTM to expand their research efforts.
"I may be their teacher, but I learn from them too," Ong said. "This was their project. They had the initiative, and I am very proud of what they accomplished."
Liu and Kuziez study in Saint Louis University's School of Public Health, which is known for its hands-on learning experiences. Research opportunities like Liu and Kuziez's study allow students to enhance their academic or professional credentials while simultaneously learning about a subject from the inside out.
"You want to make sure there's a benefit to your research or it's time and resources poorly spent," Kuziez said. "We feel our project has the power to influence change in the world by enhancing people's knowledge about ergonomics. It goes along with the University's mission to be women and men for others."

Graduate Students Showcase Documentaries
Event Details: 12 p.m., April 19, Xavier Hall, 3733 West Pine Mall St. Louis, MO, 63108
|Students work together on the meticulous task of editing an audio piece. (Photo by Mary Gould)
Students enrolled in SLU's digital storytelling graduate course are hosting a brown bag luncheon to showcase the documentaries they created through a collaborative assignment with students at DePaul University. The event will be held from 12-1 p.m. Tuesday, April 19, in Xavier Hall, Room 332. All members of the SLU community are invited to attend.
In February, SLU students traveled to Chicago where they paired with students from DePaul to create an audio documentary in 24 hours. In March, SLU played host to DePaul with the task of creating both an audio piece and a visual essay on a topic in St. Louis.
The unique assignment is a reflection of the department of communication's commitment to holistic learning. Through hands-on learning experiences students learn valuable skills that improve both their academic and professional credentials.
"A 24-hour documentary project is intense, but it is an opportunity to gain valuable research and production experience in a condensed time frame," said Mary Gould, Ph.D., who teaches SLU's digital storytelling course. "The groups worked hard--some into the early hours of the morning--and produced high-quality stories."
The documentaries to be presented at the brown bag luncheon range from stories about Chicago street musicians to St. Louis's obsession with provel cheese. Those in attendance will be invited to ask questions about the content of the documentaries, as well as the production process that went into them.

When students, faculty, and staff log in My VCCS to access their Gmail accounts after the Bb upgrade on May 17th-18th, you will have access to a number of new, powerful teaching and learning tools. During the scheduled outage, not only will Blackboard Learn be upgraded to Service Pack 11 (new features can be found at http://www.virginiawestern.edu/facstaff/it/index.php/distance-learning/whats-new-in-blackboard-9-1-sp11/), but Google Apps for Education will also be expanded from its current set of core apps—Gmail, Docs, Calendar, etc,-- to a broad selection new consumer apps: YouTube, Google+, Maps, Books, Picasa, etc. These new apps will provide VCCS students, faculty, and staff with access to an even more powerful suite of teaching, learning, social, and communication tools that can be used both in and outside of the classroom.
However, there are some crucial steps that all students, faculty, and staff need to take to successfully access any Google Apps, including Gmail, after the upgrade. First, once these consumer apps are enabled, everyone in the VCCS domain must click through and agree to a new consumer Terms of Service (TOS) when they next login. No Google Apps can be accessed until users agree to these new TOS. To see these TOS, click here: http://www.email.vccs.edu/terms-of-service.
Second, when setting up a profile in Google Plus (G+), a Facebook-like social networking service included in the upgrade, it is especially important that users include a correct date of birth (or at least a date of birth that will make them 13 years old or older). If they include a date of birth indicating they are younger than 13, they will be permanently locked out of all Google services. This cannot be undone without significant effort and additional costs. For more about reactivating a disabled account, click here: http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1333913.

Open Mic: Moving us forward, faster, furtherFebruary 11, 2014 7:52 pm | by Matthew Zelesko, SVP, Converged Technology Group, Time Warner Cable | Comments
We are facing several technology transitions – the transition to IP-based video delivery, the transition of storage from the home to the cloud, and the transition of navigation from the home to the cloud. And the RDK is a key enabler of those transitions, creating a common platform that provides the foundation for those capabilities.

Ciciora's Corner: FailureFebruary 11, 2014 7:17 pm | by Walt S. Ciciora, Expert on cable and consumer electronics issues | Comments
Failure stings engineers and technologists a lot less than other folks. That's because we experience it as part of our work and we expect it in at least small measures. Non-technical folks are devastated by failure; they don't know how to handle it. Technical folks aren't happy about failure, but see it as a learning opportunity.
Capital Currents: TV Broadcasting – The Next GenerationFebruary 11, 2014 7:07 pm | by Jeffrey Krauss, President of Telecommunications and Technology Policy | Comments
The emerging picture of ATSC 3.0 resembles a combination of ATSC 2.0 and DVB-T2, and if that's the case, U.S. broadcasting is looking at a significant chicken-and-egg problem. Consumers will have to buy new TVs, and broadcasters will have to switch to a new broadcasting system, but nobody will make a move unless someone else goes first.

Great Fun for Any Preschooler!
By Erin Lowmaster | Connected2Christ
from Oregon
Comments about Preschool Pop Games Bundle:
The Preschool Pop Game Bundle by Learning Resources is a creative and colorful set of learning games fashioned to look like a container of bubbles. This bundle promotes skills that are taught in preschool as well as in Kindergarten. The four separate games included feature colors, counting, rhyming, and shapes. Though this set says preschool, it's geared and recommended toward children ages 3-6 years old. The games individually have 80 cards and a spinner for taking turns and grabbing 1-3 bubble cards. Everything can be contained neatly in each box that features a pretty snug fitting lid. There's a even a little zip type plastic baggy included in each box to keep the pieces together within the inner compartment of the box. There's no need to keep up with the instructions as those are displayed on the side of each box.How the game works is that each player must attempt to have either 10 pieces if attempting the level 1 suggestion or the level 2 which is played till all the bubble cards have been emptied from container. You earn the bubble pieces by correctly answering what is seen on the bubble card. When you draw a POP! card, you return all the cards you've gained back to the box. I have played both the level 1 and level 2 options of each of the games with my nearly 3 year old son and my 5 year old daughter. We've also been using the pieces for other preschool and kindergarten practice too. The pieces as durable as they are make for some great circular flash cards! We've used the pieces for story prompts adding to a story by the chance of whatever bubble card we draw next. It's been great fun! Overall the bundle is a nice set that will help grow your child's knowledge in those crucial skill needed to know for kindergarten whether you just play the game or if you mix things up a bit like we did.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Fun, Flexible, and Educational
By Nancy @ Arizona Mama
from Glendale, AZ
Best Uses
The Preschool Pop Games Bundle is a set of 4 different, but similar games (colors, shapes, counting, and rhyming). Each game has the same rules, but a different learning objective. These are all 4 simple fast pace games. Each game comes in its own canister filled with 80 small cardboard pieces that relates to the learning subject and pieces with the word pop on them. The games are all simple. The players take turns spinning the spinner and depending on which number they land on they will pull that many cards from the canister. They would then identify what picture is on each card and put them in their pile. If the player pulls a Pop card then they lose all their collected cards. The player with the most cards at the end wins.I feel like these games are helping my son to be ready when Kindergarten starts. The cards are sturdy and will last a long time. The canisters are not to large and easily store everything in one place. This is another great learning bundle from Learning Resources that will help my child be ready for and succeed in school.
Makes Learning Fun!

The pieces are so durable (even for toddlers)! This game is fun for all ages and makes learning exciting. Colors and Shapes seemed to work best for ages 2-3 and Rhyming and Counting were perfect for 3 -5 year olds.

Learn Those Fundamental Preschool Skills
By Melissa ~ Mommy Living the Life of Riley
from Houston, TX
My understanding of the Pop Games bundle from Learning Resources was a little sketchy at first because it took me 15 minutes to find the real instructions located under the removable label of the cylinder. Neither the website nor the outer label say anything as to where the instructions are located and I had a bunch of questions when first trying to play this game with my daughter. My first recommendation would be to print this information prominently on the outer packaging of the game or at least give a hint that the full instructions are located under the outer label.Once the instructions were found, the real fun began! Basically, there are two levels of play to the Pop Games bundle depending on the skill level of your child. In both levels of the game, you must spin the spinner to find out whether to take 1, 2 or 3 bubble cards from the jar. In the rhyming edition, you say the name of the object on the card and then say a word that rhymes with it. For instance, if you have a picture of a hat, then you should say something like cat or rat.In the colors edition, you draw out a bubble card and then say the name of the color and the object on each card. For instance, an apple is red. In the shapes edition, simply say the object and the name of the shape on the card and in the counting edition, the child should say the number represented on the card. Each edition contains 80 full color, double-sided cards so that there is plenty of variety available.If the child answers correctly, they get to keep the bubble card, but if they answer incorrectly, the card goes into a separate pile outside of the bubble jar. Of course, there's a twist to this game. There are several POP cards located inside the bubble jar. If one of these is drawn, ALL bubble cards earned must be placed back in the jar and the POP card removed from play.I love games which have a "go back to start" twist to them since no one is ever truly winning until the game is actually over. I've lost so many times to Riley in games like this and she squeals with delight when suddenly she comes from behind and wins. It also teaches her to be a graceful loser too when the POP card manages to snag defeat from the jaws of victory.In level one, whoever obtains 10 bubble cards first is the winner, whereas in level two, a winner is declared after all the bubble cards have been played from the jar. Whoever has the most correct bubble cards wins the game.Although the Preschool Pop Games Bundle is recommended for children ages 3 to 6 years old, in my opinion, the Colors and Counting editions probably won't be relevant for children over the ages of 4. My daughter is 4 years old and is already tiring of these two games because they're too easy for her. She loves the Shapes and Rhyming editions however and I feel like these will continue to challenge her skills for years to come.

Ludlow summer program gains momentumBy Christian Avard
Staff Writer | February 19,2013LUDLOW A proposed Ludlow summer school program might get a boost from a neighboring town that would like to participate.
Mount Holly residents will decide on Town Meeting Day whether to give $5,000 to Camp Quest, a seven-week, tuition-free program for freshman and sophomores that offers a variety of project-based learning and recreational activities from June to August, according to Camp Quest Chairman Frank Heald.
Mount Holly Select Board member Paul Nevin said the Select Board met with Camp Quest representatives at a special Select Board meeting last month and were supportive of the plan. According to Nevin, Mount Holly students use town recreational facilities on a year-round basis and he said there are very few summer enrichment programs in the Ludlow area.
These are kids who sometimes dont have a lot of things to do in the summer. The other Select Board members (Raymond Tarbell and James Heald) agree with me and the voters will decide whether they want to spend $5,000 or not, said Nevin, a former middle school teacher.
Frank Heald, who also serves as Ludlow town manager, said he was encouraged by Mount Hollys support.
This will provide young teens with a summer camp to enjoy a full and rewarding seven-week program of physical and intellectual growth at a key moment in their lives.
Heald said he was inspired by a similar program in Jaffrey, N.H., that offers academic enrichment and a wide range of activities including athletics, swimming, arts, crafts and camping. He solicited feedback from Black River Middle/High School students and the programs they requested were foreign language classes, professional development opportunities, vocational activities and outdoor recreation.
The program would operate five days a week and provide breakfast, lunch, snack and camp shirts to participating students, Heald said. Although both Select Boards are supportive of the summer program, funding for the program is dependent on voter support on Town Meeting Day.
A similar article on Ludlows town meeting warrant will request $20,000 from the voters on Town Meeting Day. Heald said the estimated costs to operate Camp Quest are $25,000.

Other than its cost, the Samsung Portable SSD T1 is what any portable drive should be.
The devices on this page represent the best among their respective categories.
The Samsung 850 Evo has the best combination of performance and cost, making it the ideal drive for any home users.
With the lowest pricing on the market, the SanDisk Ultra II is an excellent upgrade for your aging computer.
The hefty pricing aside, the Samsung SSD 850 Pro is one of the best, if not the best, standard consumer-grade solid-state drives on the market.
Power users and gamers should look no further than the SanDisk Extreme Pro to get the best performance out of their home computer.
If style is as important as performance to you, the Drive SSD is the portable drive you've been saving for.
At launch, the new Intel SSD 730 Series makes a very good internal drive choice for your computer, but it'll become a better value when its street price drops below the current suggested retail price.
The Seagate 600 is an impressive first SSD outing from Seagate that offers basically all you want in a solid-state drive.
If you're moving up from a hard drive, the SanDisk Ultra Plus is totally worth its price.
The OCZ Vector Series SSD would make a great investment for those moving on from using a hard drive as the main drive of their system.

London in 2013
by alesbymail » Sat Aug 06, 2011 9:16 pm
In response to a post and comments made elsewhere on this forum and in the steering group for the 2013 NADWCon I have been asked to clarify a few matters. You will note that this reply is being made via my "work" forum account - this is only because an "official" 2013 account has not been activated yet by the person who we have asked to provide support and regular information to this community. The notes below were drafted by some of those who have been approached to assist with input by me.
It's still early in the early days but we've now made the first step on what
we believe will be an amazing Discworld journey that will bring a Discworld event (even it's exact name is still undecided it's so early in the process) - to London in late 2013.
You should know that plans are afoot and as part of those plans a few stalwarts visited the Excel centre today and, to be honest, at least
one arrived with misgivings.
The place is vast. No messing about - VAST, and some of the comments which
pointed in this direction were well-founded. What is perhaps less well known
is that the ICC Halls and Suite can offer us a self-contained, flexible area.
Flexibility which includes catering, exhibition and function space at an expense no
greater - and hopefully less - than we find ourselves paying at other major
The hotel accommodation around the Excel centre is at varied prices
and varied qualities - from Ibis at around £60 per room up to a brand new,
as yet incomplete 250 bedroom hotel which its owners plan will be "top of
the range" and is a short walk from the previously mentioned ICC. There are some 1500 bedrooms on the ICC and Excel Campus, all within walking distance.
For those who don't live in London, this might offer an opportunity to
extend their visit to the Capital (take in a show?). For those living in
London and familiar with the joys of docklands light railway, access to
Excel is quick and efficient.
While we are delighted to take these first steps, we would be foolhardy to
believe we could do the whole event without experienced help. Some of this
help has already been solicited and the responses have been universally
positive. Our aim is to draw together and work with the very best people to produce an event
which will astonish and delight everyone who attends and will bring the
family of Discworld fandom together at the most spectacular Discworld event
ever to be held.
We aim to reach out beyond the core of Discworld Fandom and bring together the
world family of science fiction to acknowledge the genius that is Terry Pratchett.
I'm going to finish by making two requests. The first is to ask for your patience whilst we finalise the gathering of the event organising team. There will be little news for a while, but rest assured, we are still monitoring this excellent fan forum.
My second request is to ask the fantastic people on this forum to keep their ideas, questions, offers of assistance and queries coming on this thread or in DM if you want to. We will read them all and respond in time to them all in time and any involvement from you is most welcome.
Best wishes on behalf of the Events Team for London 2013.
