2015 Research Prize
The Klaus J. Jacobs Research Prize 2015 went to neuroscientist and UCL professor Sarah-Jayne Blakemore for her research on understanding emotional and social brain development during adolescence.More
Laurence Steinberg has made a lasting contribution to how the development of young people is understood by both scientists and politicians.
Laurence Steinberg once described his own childhood and youth as "disgustingly normal". Today, Laurence Steinberg is regarded as one of the most distinguished experts in adolescent psychological development – an expert who has made a name for himself well beyond scientific and specialist circles.
During the course of his 30-year career in research and teaching, Professor Steinberg has made groundbreaking contributions to the scientific study of the development of young people. His research activity is not only extremely wide-ranging, but also exceptionally profound. Alongside basic research into cognitive, social and emotional development during adolescence, he has worked on the psychopathology of young people, on antisocial behavior and, more recently, on adolescent risk-taking and decision-making. His research is characterized by a highly interdisciplinary approach, with a particular focus on the dynamic interplay between biological, psychological and contextual factors.
For Laurence Steinberg, applied research with a clear relevance to policy and practice is equally as important as basic science. This perspective meant that studies of adolescent employment during the school year led to changes in US child labor legislation. The US Supreme Court quoted Steinberg several times in its decision to abolish the death penalty for young people. And current ongoing research into the link between brain development and risk-taking behavior aims to provide health care policy-makers with clear guidelines as to how dangerous behavior among adolescents can be reduced.
With the Klaus J. Jacobs Research Prize 2009, the Jacobs Foundation is rewarding Laurence Steinberg for his immense contribution to improving the life circumstances of young people and their families.

GENEVA (26 November 2013) – More than a thousand participants from over 100 countries will gather next week in Geneva for the Second United Nations Annual Forum on Business and Human Rights, making it the largest global discussion on business and human rights to date.
The three-day Forum will bring together, among others, representatives of corporations involved in manufacturing, information and communication technology, mining, oil and energy, agribusiness, banking and finance, as well as people affected by these activities.
"The broad range of participants is what makes this event a success," the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay said. "The Forum is a unique venue for bringing together business, Governments, civil society and affected individuals in one space to promote dialogue and cooperation."
The discussions will explore the current situation of human rights in the digital domain, international investment, agroindustry, employment and recruitment, global supply chains, and public and private finance. They will also focus on key human rights issues such as victim's access to judicial and non-judicial remedy, and rights defenders confronting business-related violations.
"The Forum is a once-a-year opportunity to collectively assess global progress in the implementation of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights*. It will address the impact of business activities on human rights, and the challenges still to be tackled – across a range of sectors and issues," Working Group Chair Alexandra Guáqueta said.
The Guiding Principles are globally accepted standards on the responsibilities of States and businesses for preventing and addressing business-related human rights abuse. They outline what States and business enterprises should do to prevent and address impacts and to ensure access to effective remedies for those whose rights have been adversely affected by business activity.
In addition to the official sessions of the Forum, Governments, businesses, civil society, indigenous peoples, academics, lawyers and national human rights institutions are organising some 25 side events. The opening day of the Forum will feature Nobel Prize winning economist Joseph Stiglitz. The closing session will include remarks from Mary Robinson, former President of Ireland and former High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Yea, most students of sign will think that was occasionally. it gets weird when you start dreaming in sign. It's pretty abstract, really, because you more conceive of the impulse for the motion than the motion. Dreaming is conceptual, not physical, so like just "knowing" a place or thing or situation in a dream, so is the cognition for it.
Secondly.... Not everyone is born PROFOUNDLY deaf. Most can hear something of some pitch. The ones that can't though... yea. The deaf community is actually neat. And the jokes, on average, are both dirty and absolutely hilarious.

Oddly enough, I have a sister who is both deaf and schizophrenic. She has told me me that she hears the voices in her head like she imagines that hearing people would. She doesn't know obviously because she cannot hear. She said that she thinks in sign language, and that is how she distinguishes her thoughts from the voices due to her schizophrenia. Hope that helped. I know all cases aren't the same, that's just what she told me when I asked her.

It has been nearly fifteen years since the war between the orcs and humans ended. An uneasy peace settled over the land while, for years, the drums of war were silent. Yet the kingdoms of men grew complacent in their victory – and slowly, the defeated orcish clans regrouped under the banner of a new visionary leader.
Now a darker shadow has fallen over the world, threatening to extinguish all life – all hope. The drums of war play upon the winds once again – rising urgently towards the inevitable hour when the skies will rain fire – and the world will tremble before the coming of the Burning Legion.

Man sentenced to death for 1983 rape, murder of womanUPDATED 6:20 PM EDT Jul 28, 2014
A Louisville man was sentenced to death for the rape and murder of a mother of five in 1983.Video Transcript
A MAN WILL LOSE HIS LIFE FOR KILLING A LOUISVILLE MOTHER THREE DECADES AGO. IT TOOK JURORS AN HOUR AND A HALF TODAY TO RETURN THE SENTENCE FOR LARRY LAMONT WHITE. W-L-K-Y'S ANN BOWDAN IS LIVE OUTSIDE THE COURTHOUSE WITH REACTION... ANN? LAMONT WHITE HAD ALREADY BEEN CONVICTED AND WAS SERVING TIME FOR KILLING TWO OTHER WOMEN IN 1983. HE WAS ORIGINALLY SENTENCED TO DEATH FOR THOSE CASES, BUT IT WAS OVERTURNED. NOW HE'S SENTENCED TO DEATH YET AGAIN.. FOR THE MURDER OF PAM ARMSTRONG BACK IN 1983. "We the jury fix the punishment of Larry Lamont White for the murder of Pamela Armstrong at death. Is that your verdict? Shh!! Shh!!" EMOTIONS COULDN'T BE CONTAINED AS JUDGE JIM SHAKE READ THE SENTENCING RECOMMENDATION FOR LAMONT WHITE. WHITE REFUSED TO SHOW UP FOR HIS PENALTY PHASE OF TRIAL. BUT IT DIDN'T MATTER TO THE VICTIM'S FAMILY..THIS VERDICT IS AN END AND A BEGINNING. "The end to a lot of uncertainty and uhm..fear. And the beginning to healing and moving on." IN 1983, POLICE DISCOVERED LAVONNE WHITE'S MOTHER, 22-YEAR OLD PAM ARMSTRONG DEAD.. SHOT TWICE IN THE HEAD AND RAPED. NEAR HER BODY.. FOOD STAMPS TO SUPPORT FOR HER 5 CHILDREN. BUT DESPITE YEARS OF INVESTIGATING.. THE CASE WENT COLD. IN 2004 LAVONNE WHITE URGED THE COLD CASE UNIT TO PICK UP THE CASE. A DNA MATCH FOUND ON PAMELA ARMSTRONG'S UNDERWEAR.. LEAD TO THE INDICTMENT OF WHITE. AND ON FRIDAY - A JURY CONVICTED HIM MURDER. ON MONDAY THEY CONVICTED HIM OF THE RAPE AS WELL. IT WAS HIS THIRD MURDER CONVICTION.. A FACT THE COMMONWEALTH STRESSED MONDAY TO THE JURY. "Do not forget about Larry's two other deadly works of art. Yolanda Sweeney and Deborah Miles." "To know anything about a man, you have to examine his body of work." "That's not homicide, that's genocide." THE DEFENSE SAYS THEY WEREN'T SHOCKED BY THE VERDICT..WITH WHITES CRIMINAL HISTORY BEING REVEALED..AND.. "The fact that somebody doesn't take the stand,the fact that he's not in court with us today, clearly is something that jury took into consideration." "This is definitely what I think was deserved. My mother got the death penalty and she didn't commit a crime.." ACCORDING TO THE DEFENSE, THEY DO PLAN TO APPEAL THIS CONVICTION AND VERDICT. THEY SAY ALLOWING THE PREVIOUS CRIMINAL HISTORY INTO THE MAIN ARGUMENTS PREJUDICES THE JURY ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC CASE. REPORTING LIVE OUTSIDE OF THE JUDICIAL CENTER..ANN BOWDAN,

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for calibrating a probe for measuring displacement between the probe measurement tip and a target object, and more particularly to calibration of a probe of the described character which embodies a Hall effect device.
It is conventional in the art of displacement measurement to employ a probe which provides an output that varies as a function of distance or displacement between the probe measurement tip and a target object. One type of displacement probe which has enjoyed substantial acceptance in the art employs a permanent magnet and a so-called Hall effect device for measuring distance to the target object as a function of variations in the magnetic field through the Hall device. Where such probes are employed in high speed applications, it is conventional practice to provide a lookup table which relates probe output to probe/target displacement and thus provides rapid measurement without requiring complex mathematical calculations. Such tables are typically generated to reflect average characteristics of the type or model of probe in question, and thus does not accurately reflect individual measurement characteristics of each probe. Consequently, accuracy of measurement is compromised.
A general object of the present invention is to provide a method of calibrating a displacement probe, such as a Hall effect displacement probe, which generates a look-up table unique to each probe and which thus enables more accurate displacement measurements during probe operation.
Another object of the invention is to provide a method of the described character which is economical to implement and which may be performed by relatively unskilled personnel.
A further object of the invention is to provide apparatus for calibrating displacement probes in accordance with the method of the invention.
In accordance with the method of the present invention, a preassembled displacement probe to be calibrated is fixtured in a calibration fixture which includes a calibration target and means for selectively varying displacement of the target with respect to the probe. Probe output is read and stored at each of a plurality of preselected target/probe displacements. Employing the stored outputs and the corresponding preselected target/probe displacements, a polynomial equation is then generated which best relates or approximates probe output to displacement over the entire probe measurement range. A look-up table unique to the probe is then generated and stored, employing the polynomial equation, at a multiplicity of preselected increments of target/probe displacement. For enhanced fit of the generated polynomial equation to the probe output characteristics, and for resulting enhanced accuracy and resolution of the look-up table, the overall probe measurement range may be divided into a plurality of sub-ranges or regions, and differing polynomial equations and look-up tables may be sequentially generated within each of the displacement regions.
Calibration apparatus in accordance with the invention includes facility for fixturing a displacement probe to be calibrated with the probe measurement tip adjacent to a measurement target, and for selectively varying displacement between the probe tip and target. Calibration electronics receives the probe output through an a/d converter, and store such output at each of a plurality of predetermined displacements between the probe tip and target to develop a set of output data points corresponding to the plurality of predetermined displacements. The calibration electronics includes facility for generating the polynomial equation from the stored data points, and for generating a look-up table unique to the calibrated probe and relating probe output to displacement at a multiplicity of displacement increments.
A gage is provided for setting the plurality of predetermined displacements between the probe tip and the target in the field. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the calibration gage has a pair of parallel surfaces, one of which is planar and the other of which is stepped, with distance between the surfaces at each step corresponding to one of the plurality of predetermined calibration displacements. Thus, the probe may be recalibrated by the end user at the same predetermined displacements, and thereby accommodate drift of the probe characteristics.
The invention, together with additional objects, features and advantages thereof, will be best understood from the following description, the appended claims and the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a fragmentary exploded partially sectioned elevational view of a typical conventional measurement probe which may be calibrated in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a partially schematic elevational view of calibration apparatus in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary elevational view on an enlarged scale of a gage which may be employed for recalibrating the probe; and
FIG. 4 is a graphic illustration useful in discussing operation of the invention.
FIG. 1 illustrates a typical Hall effect displacement probe assembly 10 as comprising a permanent magnet 12 having a conical end 14 for concentrating magnetic flux orthogonally to a planar end surface 16. Magnet end 14 and a Hall effect transducer 18 are sandwiched within a nonmagnetic sheath 20. A probe tip 22 of magnetically permeable material is received within sheath 20 adjacent to Hall effect transducer 18. Magnetic flux from magnet 12 is thus concentrated and channeled by magnet end 14 through Hall effect transducer 18 and tip 22. In general, intensity of such magnetic flux varies as a function of distance between probe tip 22 and a target of ferromagnetic material adjacent to the probe tip, which variation is sensed by transducer 18 for providing a displacement output signal on conductors 19.
FIG. 2 illustrates calibration apparatus 24 in accordance with a presently preferred embodiment of the invention as including a ferromagnetic target object 26, such as a steel ball, cantilevered from a support 30 by an arm 28 and a vertically positionable bearing way 29. Support 30 is mounted on a fixed base 34 by a double bearing way 32,33. Each bearing way 32,33 has an associated lead screw 35,36 for manually horizontally positioning support 30 with respect to base 34. A clamp 38 is constructed to receive and firmly hold a preassembled probe 10 to be calibrated, with probe tip 22 adjacent to target ball 26. Distance d between probe tip 22 and target ball 26 may thus be varied by lead screw 36. Axial alignment of target ball 26 with respect to probe tip 22 and the axis of probe 10 may be adjusted by the screws 35,40. Most preferably, the entirety of fixture 24, with the exception of target ball 26, is constructed of nonmagnetic material. Calibration electronics 42 in accordance with the present invention includes an a/d converter 44 which receives the analog output of probe 10 through conductors 19. The digital output of a/d converter 44 is connected to the calibration circuitry 48, which preferably comprises a suitably programmed digital microprocessor. Calibration circuitry 48 receives an input from an operator pushbutton or the like 50 for controlling storage and processing of probe output data, and provides an probe output data signal to a digital display 52. Calibration circuitry 48 is also connected to a suitable non-volatile memory 54 for storing a displacement v. output look-up table unique to probe 10.
In accordance with the present invention, it has been found that output of probe 10 may be accurately approximated by the following polynomial equation:
p=a0 +a1 d+a2 d2 + - - - +an dn (1)
where a0, a1, . . . , an are polynomial coefficients, d is probe/target displacement and n is an integer. For m discrete calibration points, the corresponding probe outputs can be written in vector form as:
P=[p1 p2 P3 - - - pm ] (2)
Polynomial equation (1) can be used to obtain:
A=[a0 a1 a2 - - - an ] (4) ##EQU1## and where d1, d2, etc. are probe/target displacements d (FIG. 2) corresponding to probe outputs p1, p2, etc. With m equal to or greater than n+1, there is a unique minimum mean square polynomial approximation with coefficients given by:
with D' being the transpose of matrix D, and the superscript -1 denoting matrix inversion.
In accordance with the present invention, a probe 10 to be calibrated is first clamped within fixture 24, and displacement d between probe tip 22 and target ball 26 is varied among a plurality of target/probe displacements d1, d2, . . . dm. At each such calibration displacement d1, d2, etc., the corresponding output p1, p2, etc. of probe 10 is read and stored within calibration circuitry 48 under control of data storage switch 50. FIG. 4 graphically illustrates processed probe output, as indicated at display 52, as a function of displacement d. The curve of FIG. 4 represents least squares best fit to stored data points. Specific calibration displacements are then selected, in this example d1 through d11. The end points d1 and d11 are selected to correspond to the end points of the desired calibration range, in this case one hundred mils and zero mils respectively.
Each subsequent probe of this design will possess a characteristic curve generally of the contour shown in FIG. 4, so that it is only necessary in accordance with the invention to calibrate at preselected data points d1 through d11. This is preferably accomplished employing a displacement gage 60 illustrated in FIG. 3 as comprising a flat plate having a pair of opposed parallel surfaces 62,64. Gage plate surface 62 is planar while plate surface 64 is stepped, with the distance between surfaces 62,64 at each step corresponding to a preselected target/probe displacement d1, d2, etc. Thus, employing gage 60, distance between probe measurement tip 22 and target ball 26 may be accurately set at each of the predetermined calibration displacements d1, d2, etc. With displacements d1 through d11 and corresponding probe outputs p1 through p11 thus obtained, constants a0 through an are calculated within calibration circuitry 48 per matrix and vector equations (3)-(7). A look-up table unique to each probe 10 is then generated within circuitry 48 and stored within memory 54 employing polynomial equation (1) over the entire calibration range at preselected desired increments of displacement. This table may be burned into a read-only-memory, for example, and remain associated with the corresponding probe 10 throughout the useful life of the probe. Alternatively, where probe 10 is to be employed in an automated production environment, for example, the look-up table may be stored in a central processor together with the probe serial number or other identifying indicia.
Resolution of the look-up table depends, of course, upon the number of increments employed and the calibration range. The number of table displacement increments is, in turn, limited by the capabilities of a/d converter 44 and calibration circuitry 48. With a twelve bit a/d converter, it is theoretically possible to employ 212 or 4096 displacement increments, yielding a resolution of better than 2.59% over a 100 mil measurement range. (It will be appreciated, of course, that the 100 mil range herein discussed is strictly by way of example.)
To minimize calibration time and expense, the number of data points m and the order n of polynomial equation (1) are selected to be as low as possible consistent with desired resolution of measurement probe 10. To increase accuracy of the polynomial approximation over an extended measurement range, it is desirable in many instances to divide the overall range into a plurality of subranges or regions, such as regions I, II and III illustrated in FIG. 4. The steps of reading probe outputs p1 through pm at corresponding displacements d1 through dm, generating the polynomial approximation and forming the look-up table are then sequentially performed for displacements d within each of the regions so as to generate a composite look-up table which encompasses the entire measurement range.
The invention has been described in detail in connection with calibration of Hall effect displacement probes. However, the principles of the invention are not limited to probes of this character. Rather, the invention may be employed in calibration of any displacement probe having a monotonic output characteristic which may be accurately approximated by polynomial equation (1).
An important advantage of the invention lies in the fact that the displacement probes may be readily recalibrated at any time by the end user employing the gage 60. Thus, probe drift due to age or temperature, etc. may be readily accommodated.
A complete program listing for performing the foregoing calibration technique on an Intel 8751H microprocessor is included herewith and incorporated herein as an Appendix.

Hangin' with the band backstage. Left to right: Biz3 national publicist Dana Meyerson; White Denim members Joshua Block, Austin Jenkins, Steve Terebecki, James Petralli; "Last Call" recording engineer and producer Fred Archambault (who's also produced/engineered/mixed for the numerous rock bands, including Avenged Sevenfold); and "Last Call" music producer/booker Davis Powers. (Photo credit: Mitchell Peters)
NBC's "Last Call With Carson Daly" was in full effect at Los Angeles' Wiltern on Jan. 25 to film Austin-based psych-garage band White Denim -- who's been tapped as the opener for a string of Wilco concert dates on the West Coast -- for an upcoming TV show scheduled to air in early February.
"Last Call" music producer/booker Davis Powers first caught wind of White Denim after seeing them open in Los Angeles for Portugal. the Man at the El Rey Theatre in 2010.
"When I started talking to my friends who enjoyed bands like Wilco and Blind Melon, everybody was looking at [White Denim] to carry the torch of this cool psychedelic and garage-y sound," Davis tells Billboard.biz. "So when their new record ('D') came out, and they got the Wilco tour, we thought the Wiltern would be a great backdrop."
Chicago-based Jam Productions co-president Jerry Mickelson (right), flew from the Windy City to support hometown favorites Wilco. Standing next to him is Paul Levy, the son of restaurateur Mark Levy, who serves as CEO of Mastro's Steakhouse. (Photo credit: Mitchell Peters)
White Denim will make their TV debut on "Last Call" in early February. The spot will include live footage from the band's opening set for Wilco at the Wiltern, including the tracks "Street Joy" and "Anvil Everything," from the group's latest full-length album, "D," which was released last May on Downtown Records.
Davis also offered some advice for artist managers or record labels looking to have their acts featured on "Last Call."
"You have to know who our audience is -- it's a very eclectic, tastemaker audience," he says, noting he's excited about upcoming "Last Call" episodes that will feature Ed Sheeran, Dr. Dog and the Melvins. "We're programming [acts] that reinforces our bond with the audience, and says, 'We know what you're into.' But we also want to have their trust that we'll give them something new and exciting that we feel they should pay attention to."
"We're constantly looking for the next wave of emerging artists, and ones we feel are going to be groundbreaking and go on to do great things," Davis continues. "We do a lot of independent music and artists that haven't had their TV debut yet."
"Last Call" music producer/booker Davis Powers chats with Los Angeles Greek Theatre GM Rena Wasserman moments before Wilco hits the stage. NBC's music-oriented talk show "Last Call with Carson Daly" kicked off its 11th season Sept. 20 with performances filmed last summer at the Greek Theatre. The Greek Theatre celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2011. (Photo credit: Mitchell Peters)
Davis also shared some thoughts about recently booking the musical talent for NBC's 2012 New Year's Eve with Carson Daly, which included performances by Drake, Cee Lo Green, the Roots, Blake Shelton, Jessie J and Tony Bennett.
"It was definitely interesting operating fully in the Top 40 world, which is something I hadn't done since I was at [Jimmy Kimmel Live on ABC]," he says. "I was really proud of the fact that we had Drake in Times Square, because we hadn't had a real top-tier artist in Times Square for some years. I was also really proud about Blake Shelton, because historically the show hasn't had a country crossover act. I thought it was a good representation of the more popular genres. I would've loved a big rock act, but it seemed like they were too afraid to dabble in New Year's this year."
Meanwhile, in addition to its sold-out concert at the nearly 2,000-capacity Wiltern on Jan. 25, Wilco also performed two other L.A. concerts at the Palladium (Jan. 24) and the Los Angeles Theatre (Jan. 27). The Grammy Award-winning Chicago act, which recently released its new album, "The Whole Love," has North American dates booked through early February. From there the group will visit Europe in March.
Others in spotted roaming through the Wiltern lobby at Wilco's Wednesday concert included singer-songwriter Jackson Browne, Jam Productions co-president Jerry Mickelson and Los Angeles Greek Theatre GM Rena Wasserman.

The White Hart Royal hotel was once a "coaching inn". Its reputation was enhanced when King Charles I sheltered in the inn following the battle of Marston Moor on 2nd July 1644. A copy of the King's unpaid bill is commemorated on a plaque within the entrance lobby.
The principal part of the hotel was built of sandstone under a pegged oak roof in the early 17th century. It was substantially extended in 1773 and 1782 and now these original buildings have been lovingly restored following a major refurbishment programme supervised by conservation officers from Cotswold District Council – there are no modern extensions to this grade II listed property. The hotel's collection of period artefacts and paintings reflect the four centuries of its evolution while guests now have use of facilities equipped to 21st century standards.

We're slowly starting to learn more and more about the new-look Tennessee Titans under Ken Whisenhunt.
Training camp is in full effect and certain players are already starting to distinguish themselves as players who the team will be able to rely upon.
We have also seen the opposite side of that equation. Some unfortunate cuts are quickly approaching as the preseason opener against the Green Bay Packers is just around the corner.

The Mission of the New Jersey Photography Forum is to provide an opportunity for serious amateur photographers, photo educators, and professional photographers to meet monthly and discuss their work. It is our goal to share expertise in order to advance the skills of the participants and explore exhibit possibilities within the Fine Arts Community.
Positive feedback for 'Dimensions' Exhibit:
Your exhibition is very impressive. Your curatorship is impeccable. Your crew installing the exhibition was wonderful. I am so very pleased and honored that we were able to host you and your organization in our Gallery.
Thank you so much for bringing together such an exemplary and visually compelling exhibition. Your exhibition is very much in-line with the mission and vision we have for our Gallery at CMM- bringing in regional groups and artists and celebrating them, showcasing the Arts and significant artists in Northern New Jersey. I congratulate you and the New Jersey Photography Forum on a truly outstanding and successful exhibition.
Best, Clay Allen - Art and Design Department Chair and Visual Arts Program Chair - County College of Morris.
