Rethinking the Commitment to Free, Local Television
Christopher S. Yoo
University of Pennsylvania Law School; University of Pennsylvania - Annenberg School for Communication; University of Pennsylvania - School of Engineering and Applied Science
Vanderbilt Law and Economics Research Paper No. 02-09; Vanderbilt Public Law Research Paper No. 02-09
One of the most enduring tenets of U.S. television policy has been the commitment to localism. I suggest that the FCC's localism policy can be disaggregated into four, more specific commitments: (1) the preference for locally oriented over nationally oriented programming, (2) the preference for free (i.e., advertising-supported) over pay television, (3) the preference for single-channel over multi-channel television technologies, and (4) the preference for incumbents over new entrants and new technologies. I then analyze each of these commitments in light of what is perhaps the most distinctive feature of the television industry, which is the fact that its cost structure gives television programming many of the qualities of a public good, and conclude that each of these four commitments is fundamentally flawed. I then employ the public goods analysis I develop to critique the manner in which policy makers are regulating conventional television broadcasting, cable television, direct broadcast satellite systems (DBS), digital television, and third-generation wireless devices (3G).

Charley James: Some days I wake up feeling alright, that things will get better; then, within hours, something happens to leave me feeling like my life will never turn around.
Stock Tip: Be Worried. Workers are Consumers.
Robert Reich: Every CEO of every company that continues to squeeze payrolls (Verizon, are you listening? Ford?) needs to understand they're shooting themselves in the feet. Where do they expect demand for their products and services to come from?
If the Tea Party Were Liberal
Tina Dupuy: If liberals were doing to their country what extremist tea party Republicans are doing to theirs – it would be called unpatriotic. A whole tsunami of sound bites would sweep the country calling for the sabotage to stop.
Hiding Military Sexual Trauma
John Lasker: The mysterious deaths of female soldiers coincide with an increase in reported sexual violence against women in the military.
Why We Are Moving Toward a Recessionary Era
Robert Reich: The biggest ongoing threats are chronic recession or even deflation, because consumers don't have enough money to what the economy is capable of selling at full or near-full employment. Despite gains in productivity, little has trickled down to America's middle class.
Jerry Brown Ends Stealth Campaign
Paul Hogarth: There's no good reason why Democrats cannot win the California governorship this year. Barack Obama won the state with 61% of the vote, not a single Congressional district has a majority of registered Republicans left, and Arnold's legacy as Governor will be driving the state to bankruptcy. In other words, the real fight should have been the Democratic primary – and as long as progressives turn out the base in November, the Republican will lose.
Obama Brought the Word, But Will Congress Listen?
For those of who believe, as we do, that the tepid healthcare reforms rising to the top right now will either be too weak to benefit Americans who need help the most or will benefit most the insurance companies and others who already profit handsomely by withholding life-giving care, this is the time to press forward universal healthcare options that will actually solve the country's healthcare crisis.

People show up looking for ghosts and wind up finding a ride in the back of a squad car.
Rumors have long stood that the old Summit Elementary School in Amarillo is haunted and home to ghosts of long-ago murders.
While break-ins at the school are not uncommon by thrill-seekers looking to catch paranormal activity, Amarillo police say the problem has increased in recent weeks. They arrested or detained 14 people for trespassing or burglary in the former school in July alone.
"People think they are doing some fun and looking for a ghost," police Sgt. Brent Barbee said. "They're actually breaking the law."
The school at 2800 N.W. Ninth Ave. is owned by San Jacinto Christian Academy. Windows are secured, doors are locked sometimes with chains, and many "No trespassing" signs are posted around the building.
Police warn people they'll be arrested if they enter the property and could face charges ranging from misdemeanor trespassing to felony burglary.
"APD officers have ... walked through the building many times during the night and have never seen evidence of supernatural activity," an Amarillo police statement said Friday.
Bloggers and other Internet chatter have spread tall tales of harrowing, haunted activity in the building.
One tale claims four boys attending Summit fell victim to the murderous ways of a janitor who cornered them in the boiler room. Creative imaginations say voices can be heard in the darkened hallways of the building.
"I've never seen anyone produce any kind of information about any type of murder that ever occurred there," Barbee said. "I call it local, urban legend."
Barbee said it's unclear as to why July possessed such a large number of break-ins. Those arrested included people ages 17, 19, 20, 22, 24 and 26.
"These are not all teenagers," Barbee said.

Thanks to an early bye week, the Green Bay Packers have only played four games through five weeks. That puts them at their personal quarter mark for the season, and that means it's time to roll out our first set of awards for the Packers.
At a record of 2-2, the Packers haven't had quite the season that many expected them to have coming into the year. However, there have been some bright spots who deserve some recognition.
Let's take a look at a handful of awards for the Packers through four games.

Hadley Caliman
Perhaps you have wondered what became of Hadley Caliman. He lives in a charming small cottage on Mercer Island, Washington. From the kitchen there is a view of Lake Washington with the Evergreen Point floating bridge in the distance. Caliman jokes that he is "surrounded by millionaires." On Mercer Island, it is no exaggeration. Caliman and his wife Linda rented the cottage, tucked between large suburban estates, two years ago. Caliman has a small study and practice room with an upright piano and his silver 1932 Selmer "Cigar Cutter" tenor on a saxophone stand.
He is a handsome, compact man of 78 with a disarming smile. He is the kind of man who can make jeans and sandals and a loose, lived-in shirt look fashionable. He is battling liver disease but still plays powerful, personal tenor saxophone, as illustrated on two recently released CDs, Gratitude and this year's Straight Ahead, both on Origin.
He was part of the Central Avenue scene in Los Angeles in the '50s and was regarded as a peer by other tenors of that milieu like Dexter Gordon, Wardell Gray, Teddy Edwards and Harold Land. It is surprising to learn that Gratitude was Caliman's first recording under his own name in 31 years, but he has not had a normal career path. Heroin addiction and incarceration derailed him early. "Heroin was a big, big part of the Central Avenue scene and I was deeply involved in it. I played and shot drugs with some who survived and some who didn't. Dexter Gordon survived because he got out, but Dupree Bolton died a street person. The fact that I'm still here is miraculous. Logically, I should not have this chance."
But addiction and prison are common subplots in jazz biographies of Caliman's generation and his intravenous drug use is long behind him. What really took him off the jazz radar was his decision, in 1980, to relocate to Cathlamet, a small Washington town on the Columbia River. His wife at the time was pregnant and her parents lived in Cathlamet. They had intended to stay until the baby was born. But Caliman liked the river and the quiet: "Laid back folks. People would wave at you and stuff. I was the only black person in town but I never had one racial problem there." He stayed 18 years.
When his second child was born he needed a steady job. He found one on the jazz faculty of Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle. He taught there for 22 years, most of that time commuting from Cathlamet. He liked teaching. He says, "My method was different. I don't have any papers. I tried to make it simple, to find ways to let students into the stuff that I know." But he also says, "I continued to play but I wasn't practicing like I should, to progress."
Over the years he became a revered figure in the Seattle jazz community. He brought both history and contemporaneous creativity to numerous projects and ensembles, including the Seattle Repertory Jazz Orchestra, and played all the major and minor jazz venues and every jazz festival in the Northwest. And when he retired from Cornish in 2003, he believes he made a breakthrough with his music: "For several years now, I've been able to get up in the morning and practice and work on my sound. I think I've started to figure some things out."
Caliman says that his two recent records got made only because trumpeter Thomas Marriott organized and produced both projects. On Gratitude, the personnel includes two out-of-towners, vibraphonist Joe Locke and drummer Joe LaBarbera, plus Marriott, the great Seattle bassist Phil Sparks and Caliman. You hear Central Avenue in Caliman's tenor, in its cleanliness and fluidity. But his style encompasses disparate elements. He says, "I don't consider myself a West Coast tenor player." But only West Coast tenor players sound pleading and passionate and cool all at once.
The best piece on Gratitude is "Linda," for his wife. Caliman's few simple reiterated cries come out of a starry night of vibraphone notes and create a fervent testament. The new Straight Ahead, with Marriott and a Seattle rhythm section, contains a "Lush Life" for the ages in less than four minutes. Caliman stays close to the melody and yet, through choices of phrasing and emphasis, transforms it into something like a summation.

'The Artist' wins Best Pic from NY online critics, 'Bridesmaids' clearly a favorite
The New York Film Critics Online have announced their list of awards winners today as well, and the big winner? Yeah, "The Artist." But more unique were some scattered honors for "Bridesmaids" (clearly a favorite among the bunch, taking Best Supporting Actress and Best Ensemble) and "Take Shelter" (which brought Michael Shannon a much-deserved Best Actor prize).
It was nice to see some singular thinking in the debut director field, where Joe Cornish won for "Attack the Block." Even if I didn't like the film (which I didn't, really), it's an outside-the-box pick and that's commendable this time of year.
Check out the full list of winners below with my real-time commentary scattered throughout. With the Boston critics, the NYFCO and the AFI top 10 list out of the way, we have one more group to finish out the day: the Los Angeles Film Critics Association.
Breakthrough Performer: Jessica Chastain, "The Tree of Life," "The Help," "The Debt," "Take Shelter," "Texas Killing Fields," "Coriolanus"
Thoughts: Well, there you have your classic "let's award every single performance he/she gave this year." Though I have to say, this is Chastain's coming out year, and a hell of a coming out year, at that. So she deserves the recognition for the body of work, I think. Congrats to her.
Best Supporting Actress: Melissa McCarthy, "Bridesmaids"
Thoughts: You have to be kidding me. See my thoughts in the Boston critics thread. Kinda silly, guys. Carey Mulligan was apparently a close runner-up.
Best Supporting Actor: Albert Brooks, "Drive"
Thoughts: That's two today and three so far. Very nice, sir. Very nice. Though it would have been kinda epic if he had won the LA prize, which was being decided at the same time (it went to Christopher Plummer).
Best Screenplay: "The Descendants"
Thoughts: Not much to add here. We know it's a go for an Oscar nomination (and potential win). I still find it to be one of Payne's lesser works and that narration should kill any serious consideration of screenplay awards, but, alas, I don't run the season.
Best Cinematography: "The Tree of Life"
Thoughts: Make that three-for-three today. Totally deserved. What else can I say?
Best Use of Music: "The Artist"
Thoughts: Second award of the day (though it tied with "Drive" with the Boston critics). Meh.
Debut Director: Joe Cornish, "Attack the Block"
Thoughts: I liked "Attack the Block" enough. It's fun. It has an awesome score. I'm not so sure I'd pitch it for something like this above Sean Durkin but at least it's a fresh pick. And it probably should have been a predictable one given how over the moon the online contingent has been for the movie.
Best Director: Michel Hazanavicis, "The Artist"
Thoughts: What can I write here that I haven't made clear elsewhere? Though while the NYFCO was busy making ballsy, outside-the-box picks like Joe Cornish, it would have been nice to see them mix it up here, too.
Best Actress: Meryl Streep, "The Iron Lady"
Thoughts: A great performance, no question about it. And one of tons of great leading lady portrayals in questionable films this year. Tough to argue with someone who wants to chalk her up for a win, though.
Best Actor: Michael Shannon, "Take Shelter"
Thoughts: YES! It took three rounds to get there (with Michael Fassbender and Gary Oldman close to taking it), but they picked the best contender of the lot (in my humble opinion). A huge congratulations to him. Is this the first award he's actually won this season?
Best Ensemble: "Bridesmaids"
Thoughts: I can actually get behind this a lot more than a singled-out acting award. So no strong argument from me here, even if "Margaret" deserves every ensemble award ever conceived by God.
Best Picture: "The Artist"
Thoughts: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Best Foreign Language Film: "A Separation"
Thoughts: Well done. The easy call in the category this year if you ask me. Let's hope it at least gets an Oscar nomination, since word is it may need the executive committee to get through.
Best Documentary: "Cave of Forgotten Dreams"
Thoughts: See them in the Boston thread. I have little else to say here.
Best Animated Film: "The Adventures of Tintin"
Thoughts: Awesome. Though I still find myself wrestling with whether I consider it animation or not. Still, any love for the film is fine by me.

The money that ya' live and die for
And where I'm from my nigga you get shot
For sellin' out your man when he the reason you got on
(I ain't trippin')
You know they say, that gangsters don't live that long
But how can I be here homes if I wasn't real-ly that strong
I pro'ly should be long gone
Tell me (Tell me, tell me, tell me)
[Verse 1: Snoop Dogg]
Tell me, what does it take to be dangerous
Everytime I look around, the game steady changin'
From coast to coast, rearranging
Them boys out west, we insist to keep it bangin' (Westside)
Ah yeah, we maintaining, burnin' up the charts, we spark, now we blazin'
My young home boy, he amazing
The cookie, rookie, shook him and took him
And now he famous (wow)
Couldn't quite picture that, wonder what he fishin' at
Now ya talkin' bout this and that
But pass that loc, I don't diss no mo'
I make number one hits, you know
Believe me, I make it look easy
You wanna know how to do it, then watch Snoop Deezie
[Verse 2: Snoop Dogg]
Yeah, cuz, the game won't wait up
Dismissed all the beef and shook all the haters
And took on the new routine
Started coaching youth football to go straight clean
Like mean Joe Green, I step on the scene
They want an autograph and a picture, you know what I mean? (nah mean?)
I get to 'em, nigga, don't ask why
I'm real to my people, that's just how I ride
Yeah, since I slid in the do', I been at this
Some gangsta mack shit, but I did it with practice
Yeah, yeah, y'all know I get actin'
I live to learn, teach to reach my status
Top of the charts, have heart, have money
To have money, you gotta have heart
[Verse 3: Snoop Dogg]
It's been thirteen years, no pain, no tears
Respected by all my peers
No matter where I'm posted at, my hands stay close to that
Ratta da dat dada dadat dadat
And as a matter of fact, no beef on the streets
No black on black. We gon' be all on one track
So I fall in ride or get lost in the pack
It's like that, fo' real, we ain't bluffin'
Right now it's West Coast or nothin'

Y'all gon' respect this cause out here, fool, we rhyme
Oh, yeah, we bang, but right now it ain't time
So put away yo' nine, an' fall in line

Don't feel too stupid if you lose money to a financial fraudster. Even the smartest Wall Street hedge funds get taken sometimes.
A West Conshohocken businessman, Richard Shusterman, and three others were indicted this month for allegedly committing wire fraud and swindling millions from Wall Street hedge funds.
Specifically, the indictment alleges that between July 2008 and March 2010, Shusterman and his accomplices lied to investors and inflated prices of medical and hospital debts they purchased, then used the phantom profits to raise money from new investors.

If you think buy-and-hold investing is dead, then you need to watch this video.
As Motley Fool contributor John Maxfield points out, a quarter-century long investment in the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC ) , or in the longest-trading companies on the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) , would have yielded total returns in the three to four figures. Meanwhile, the average individual investor consistently and considerably underperforms the broader market.

Historical Traveler Reviews LimeRock Inn Rockland
Wonderful B&B
Lime Rock Inn owners provide great hospitality and beautiful place to stay. Located within easy walking distance of the main street of Rockland as well as local museums. Rooms are comfortable, breakfast is delicious, We would definitely stay there again. In addition they have great package deals listed on their website.
What a treat!
We enjoyed the Lime Rock Inn so much. It was a beautiful, clean, well done victorian inn. Frank and PJ were the innkeepers and couldn't have welcomed us more. We enjoyed sharing stories with them and felt like they were part of our family. A great place for a quiet get away. Breakfast was just right. We loved this experience.
Such a wonderful time
This is our second visit to the LimeRock Inn; the first under the new owners. Physically, the grand victorian building is superb. Beautiful woodwork in all the rooms, but especially in the sitting rooms, dining room and hallways and stairs. The owners, Frank and PJ, are very welcoming and great sources for things to do and see. The rooms have great variety in terms of size and features, but they are all comfortable and welcoming.
The Inn is located wonderfully for a visit to Rockland as it is just three blocks (an enjoyable walk) to the Farnsworth museum, one more block takes you into downtown which has a nice variety of shops and restaurants and less than a five minute ride to one of New England's finest gourmet stops, Primo Restaurant.
It was our second visit, but it won't be our last.
B&B Conversion Experience
I just had a really extraordinary experience on a short Easter trip with my family in Rockland, Maine at the LimeRock Inn. I'd heard about the LimeRock, word of mouth, from a friend and would like to spread the good news, word of Web. Full disclosure: I'm new to the B&B world and carried a certain trepidation with intimacy issues. I was a bit afraid that B&B meant forced friendliness with perfect strangers and a decided clash with my curmudgeonly disposition. I was completely knocked out by the happy mixture of warmth and privacy. Sharing a charming and special environment with people, on a more human basis than a hotel offers, gave me a real boost. And nobody ever came close to asking me to sing "Kumbaya". The ambience of the place: well-maintained elegance and richness, really had the effect of making me feel that I was transported to a special world. There was plenty of comfortable space in the public rooms for me to curl up privately with my books. I even engaged in conversation with some of the other guests, made some friends and, at least as far as the LimeRock is concerned, have shed some B&B guest-intimacy-phobia.
The setting and location are great. A beautiful house, a wide, spacious piece of property on a quiet street just a few minutes' walk from the neat little town center. And Rockland is cool. It's not "quiched-out" yet, it's local charm, not globalized charm. Plenty of first-class eats, within walking distance of the LimeRock or a short drive.
Speaking of eats, that brings me to the proprietors, PJ and Frank. At the risk of too much gush, they bring a level of sophistication and "just-so-ness" to the d�cor, service, management, guest accommodation and food preparation that brings a luxury feel to your Maine stay. Just step into the kitchen and you'll know you're in the presence of food people. I felt thoroughly refreshed and satisfied; my sullen teenagers were civil and happy. Maybe the place is enchanted.
A great B&B
I stayed in the Lime Rock Inn for a week in the beginning of April. The Inn is a fantastic old house infused with charm and character. The front parlor has large clubby chairs surrounding the fireplace - a perfect place to read on a rainy day, while the other end of the room contains an entertainment center. The guest rooms are various sizes, but all are nicely appointed. Breakfast varied from sweet to savory items that were all good; sodas and other small treats are available throughout the day. Frank and PJ, the owners, were friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the area. The Inn is located within easy walking distance of many Rockland shops, restaurants and galleries. The property is large enough for children to run around in the yard without disrupting other guests. This is a lovely B&B that you are sure to enjoy.
39th anniversary get away
When we got there they were waiting for us to help us with our luggage. Because it was our anniversy they upgraded our room. We had a very nice time chatting with the owners Frank and PJ.and the food was ecellent.The Inn was very comfortable and we would be more then happy to return there for a vacation sometime.
Charles &Joyce Getchell
Loved It!
Anyone who plans to visit Rockland must see the LimeRock Inn. It's tremendous! Beautiful! Perfectly well-kept. The owners are fabulous hosts. They are so friendly - but if you are a B&B goer that doesn't like small-talk they'll leave you alone - but if you love to talk - so do they... it's a perfect place to stay. The atmosphere is so comforting, elegantly decorated, the rooms are ALL spacious & SO clean... it is hard to choose which room to stay in. It was the best night's rest I have ever experienced - the bed was sooo comfortable!!!! Take their advice and go to Prism Glass if you are going up north - it's an expensive restaurant but the food is the best I've had in Maine...
Absolutely Wonderful!
We chose the LimeRock Inn off the website - often this is a hit or miss process - and we were so happy with our choice! It is beautiful Victorian home with charming, authentic rooms. The innkeepers are wonderful - easy to chat with and fun - they obviously enjoy and love their home and the lifestyle of owning a B&B - the breakfast was delicious! We highly recommend this place and wish that all of our B&B experiences were like this one!
Hospitality and comfort reign in charming Queen Anne Victorian
Rockland is a lovely coastal town, with the world-class Farnswoth Museum an added attraction. Our enjoyment of our recent visit was greatly enhanced by our stay at the Limerock Inn.
Frank and PJ, our hosts, go out of their way to accommodate their guests. They are very good company, and we enjoyed learning about their experiences in buying the property in December 2004, and running the Inn since then. My husband and I are architecture buffs, and they gave us a detailed tour of the structure and its improvements which was fascinating and fun.
The Inn is a grand Victorian set in a lovely garden, with lawns, trees, flowers, shrubs and a gazebo. There is a porch which wraps around the front, with comfortable wicker furniture to relax on. Inside, we admired the period decor and furniture, some original to the house. The rooms are bright and airy, and the lighting fixtures, floors, woodwork and wallpaper are in excellent condition. Everything is spotless and beautifully maintained. The hallway by the kitchen and computer room is decorated with photos PJ took of local attractions.
One amenity I haven't seen elswhere is a computer room with local phone access, complete with bottles of spring water for thirsty guests. I was able to check my email, and amend my return schedule on the Amtrak DownEaster train.
As to creature comforts, we were completely pampered. Our room, the Seguin, on the second floor, was decorated and furnished in updated Victorian style, elegant rather than frou-frou, We enjoyed the cross-breezes from the windows overlooking the garden. The bed was comfortable, with top quality linens. The shower was invigorating, with very good water pressure.
Breakfast was excellent, with lots of good coffee. The dining room is set up with glass tables for four to accommodate eating alone or joining other guests, and Frank and PJ added to the convivial atmosphere.
When it was time to leave, Frank drew us a map which gave us a much better route to take us to Portland, bypasing the traffic jams in this busy part of coastal Maine. We stopped for lunch at the A-1 Diner in Gardener, ME, which serves gourmet quality food in a true old time diner.
All things considered, I recommend anyone who visits Rockland to stay at the Limerock Inn. Frank and PJ will do their best to ensure that you have a wonderful visit.
Limerock Inn
Our stay at the Limerock Inn was lovely. The rooms, each unique and different, were clean and well appointed. Breakfasts were delicious.The Limerock Inn is an excellent location for those wanting to drive to Acadia National Park, as we did, but prefer to stay closer to Portland rather than in Bar Harbor.

... to pull in. I mostly try to avoid the game area just because it's hard for me to say no, and the money adds up real quick.
Food is my favorite thing at the fair. Gives everyone an excuse to eat bad. They sell all sorts of different kinds of foods like italian sausage, hamburgers and hot dogs, there is even a thai food stand and some small restaurant areas where you can get pulled pork sandwiches or turkey dinners. The most popular sellers at the fair ...

It isn't hard to find the museums, they are all located near each other right in the middle of Rockland, the homestead is located right behind the Farnsworth on Elm street, while the Farnsworth entrance is on Main street.

I would recommend this item to a friend.
a Crucial piece of gear
July 5, 2014
I have used it every day, multiple times a day, for 2 years. It's held up well and the pliers are surprisingly strong for their thin construction. Unfortunately it must be opened and closed with two hands(unlike the gerber Octane and larger multitools). The octane has stronger pliers and a 1 handed opening and closing but because of the location of the pocket clip it opens in your pocket. Don't have to worry about that with this one.
Pros:Solid construction Blade and tools are accessible without opening the pliers. Small Pliers work for most of my daily needs Doesn't open in your pocket
Cons:Two handed operation Pliers aren't quite up to all tasks. Screw drives are a little too short for some tasks.
3 Stars
Not bad, not great
March 20, 2014
I like the tools on this product except the pliers. Each has a nice locking liner... very nice if you've ever had a tool close on your hand while using. The knife came sharp and usable. The screwdrivers also are functional. The pliers, though, are very narrow in the bite, like tiny needle nose pliers. They don't feel strong or able to get a good grip. The tool overall is on the small side and may be difficult if you have big hands.
Pros:locking liners functionality sharp knife
Cons:pliers size (maybe)

Most Helpful
I cut the serving size down to about 3/4 pounds of tenderloin for the two of use and adjusted the other ingredients accordingly. I did decrease the vinegar by probably 1/3 and gave the tenderloin a good sprinkle of fresh ground pepper and we loved it. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you SO much for posting this recipe! This was a BIG hit with the family! Really quick to put together, I usually have all the marinate ingredients on hand and SO VERY YUMMY! I can't wait to try this again, I'm thinking about making it with pork chops this week! Definitely give this a try! (Note: I marinated my tenderloins overnight).
Such a lovely recipe Crafty Lady. We really enjoyed the tenderloins prepared this way. It was quick and easy to make, with excellent results. The tenderloins were tender, juicy and very flavorful. Thanks for sharing a recipe that I will enjoy again.

Born in Lebanon, Aksam is a French-American researcher, who benefitted from a Marie Curie grant to return to Europe and continue his research on atherosclerosis, a progressive condition involving a hardening of the arteries which often leads to heart disease. High cholesterol and ageing are two of the main causes of atherosclerosis, but thanks to Aksam, Marie Curie Actions and a healthy diet, European citizens could have a treatment available sooner than expected.
'The huge prestige of Marie Curie Actions across Europe and excellent economic conditions motivated my application. They facilitated my mobility from Madrid to London and gave me the opportunity to establish a large network of international collaborations which may definitely enhance my professional aspirations.'
With the recent influenza pandemic in Western Europe, it is essential for health care services to be able to cope with seasonal peaks of several types of viruses. With the help of the Marie Curie Actions, Armando is doing innovative research on a probiotic approach towards control of large scale pathogens. Probiotics are live micro-organisms thought to be beneficial to host organisms. They are used in prevention to strengthen the immune system.
'I had a short break in my career to give birth to my son and this prestigious fellowship greatly facilitated resuming my research career and achieving an appropriate work/life balance.'
Claire works on signalling pathways implicated in cancer, inflammation and diabetes, but right after her son was born, she was above all very happy to be a Marie Curie Actions fellow: on top of very attractive salaries for researchers, the programme makes it easier to resume a career after any type of break. Cancer and diabetes are the first two causes of mortality in Europe, so it is essential to keep the brightest researchers on the case. This is one of the objectives of the Marie Curie Actions.
'During my Marie Curie fellowship I learnt how new technologies can impact upon our everyday life through innovation, for example in the treatment and cure of cancer. And the grant also helped me discover new reasons to enjoy science!'
Caterina's research project is about cancer treatment. Her multidisciplinary project proposes a novel drug delivery approach based on highly engineered nano-materials. Thanks to Marie Curie Actions, Caterina has received multidisciplinary scientific training combining medical research with innovation technologies and thereby an exceptional opportunity to attain professional maturity.
'My Marie Curie Actions Reintegration Grant covers my research costs and it allows me to develop personal projects while integrating in a research team already in place. The grant also made it possible for me to carry out my research in excellent working conditions.'
Claire is a brain specialist and she wondered: 'Does our conscious perception of an external object arise gradually or in a discontinuous fashion? Marie Curie Actions cover all topics of research, thus appealing to researchers in all fields. And with more than 60 000 fellows funded since 1996, the chances are that you have already been in contact with the programme one way or the other. Gradually or in a discontinuous fashion.
'At the end of my PhD it was clear to me that it was essential to make my CV more competitive to find an independent research position in the future. I applied for a MCA long-term fellowship to complement an EMBO fellowship, which allowed me publish in a high impact journal.'
Claudia is trying to elucidate molecular mechanisms on sorting events occurring in endosomal membranes, inside eukaryotic mammalian cells. Try not to worry too much if you do not understand the previous sentence: Marie Curie Actions are making sure that we leave the work to brilliant researchers like Claudia.
'The Marie Curie International Reintegration Grant represents a prestigious type of funding and it undoubtedly helped in further supporting the evolution of my career from post-doctoral scientist to independent principal investigator and research team leader.'
Daniela works on the mechanisms leading to the development of obesity, one of the greatest public health challenges of the 21st century in Europe. Thanks to her Marie Curie fellowship, she was able to set up her own laboratory and also developed management skills as she is currently leading eleven talented people. Daniela is particularly keen on bringing her expertise to private partners and her ideas closer to the market.
'After obtaining a PhD in computer science and having worked in the telecommunication industry, the Marie Curie Actions Intra-European Fellowship gave me the opportunity to gain a truly interdisciplinary, pure research experience in theoretical nanoscience.'

Today, information and communication technology is growing fast and the experimental research of women like Dessislava is essential if Europe wants to come up with ground-breaking solutions, like nanonetworks and nanocommunication.
'The prestigious Marie Curie grant allows me to learn new techniques and will add valuable publications to my CV. I am confident that my improved professional profile will open new opportunities in the competitive scientific job market.'
Elke tries to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms that induce hunger and 'full – ness' with a view to preventing and treating obesity, a condition that has now reached the status of an epidemic in Europe and beyond. Also, Elke' s research will investigate ways to facilitate body weight loss.
'The Marie Curie Actions fellowship provided me with a unique opportunity to develop my skills as a molecular microbiologist, especially due to the application of modern genetic approaches.'
Esmeralda is doing research at the forefront of microbial genetics. She studies the emergence of hyper-virulent strains of bacteria at the origin of outbreaks of diarrhoea in hospitals worldwide. This common complication of hospitalisation claims thousands of victims every year. Marie Curie Actions fund all types of research topics, from genetics to human science. Because investing in research is investing in our future.
'The Marie Curie Actions grant played a crucial part in achieving my long term goals of a career in academic public health and contribution to the growing field of chronic disease management.'
Eszter works on diabetes. Patients with diabetes are subject to vascular events and other adverse outcomes. The ultimate objective of her research is to translate knowledge gained from epidemiological studies into preventive action and evaluate different preventive approaches in chronic disease management.
'I applied for a Marie Curie Actions fellowship because of the enormous prestige of being a Marie Curie fellow. Today, this grant has already taught me many things, not only related with science, but also with people and culture.'
Federico is an Argentinean geologist and has spent two years in Europe followed by one year in his home country, carrying out a project which combined numerical and geophysical ap proaches. In today's world, research needs to be done across borders and sectors. The presence of Federico in Europe will help strengthen these essential links.
'During my Marie Curie grant, I learnt new techniques and methods, I got involved in interesting side projects establishing new collaborators, and importantly I increased my publication record. Moreover, all the process of application, management and reporting allowed me to learn a bit more about research funding and the process of grant developing and writing.'
The Marie Curie Actions not only broaden career perspectives, they also equip researchers with other skills such as writing applications, patenting and marketing products and services. These are not always covered during doctoral training, but they are essential in an economy where new ideas need to be as close to the market as possible.
'This project provided me with the right conditions to perform first class research in an extremely stimulating project and environment. Never before did I have the opportunity to work in an institute with such strong expertise in my areas of interest.'
Fernanda is doing research on Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a degenerative genetic disease that damages muscles. DMD patients seldom survive past the age of forty. The project of Fernanda proposes to set up a multidisciplinary international team to study gene therapy. Because looking across sectors and borders is usually a good way to move forward.
'The Marie Curie fellowship helped me acquire a position of professional maturity in my research area. So I see it as a fundamental step in the progression of my academic career.'
Francesco works on the logic-based languages used to describe multi-agent systems. Even if this sounds very complicated, this field of research has applications in web services, robotics, avionics and economics. This is what innovation is about: bringing great complex ideas to the general public. Exactly what Marie Curie Actions are about.
'My Marie Curie fellowship has so far allowed me to choose a research topic to which I had had no previous exposure, but which I was fully scientifically ready to tackle, and to start making my own way towards producing original results.'
In his research, Ignacio revisits Darwin's theory of evolution, mixing mathematics, statistical physics and biology to gain a better understanding of all the elements at play in evolution. This innovative approach represents a paradigm shift in the field and will most certainly help designing the ecological solutions of tomorrow.
'Thanks to the wide range of resources available – both from the Marie Curie fellowship and the institution – and the breadth of interests represented by my supervisors, I knew I would be guided into a successful career as independent investigator.'
Isabel is carrying out a research project in the field of eating disorders. She uses an integrated and multidisciplinary approach to study genetic, behavioural and cultural aspects of this increasing societal problem. This innovative and excellent approach means that she will emerge with a deep understanding of eating disorders as well as new skills.
'The Marie Curie Actions fellowship does not only help me to define myself as a distinguished specialist, it will also enable me to establish my own research group in the near future and develop excellent cooperation with worldleading research institutions.'
Janos' career in research began in Budapest, and then continued in Japan and in Singapore. The Marie Curie Actions helped him come back to Europe, where he now spends time understanding the factors underlying public perceptions of sensitive technologies – technologies whose implications intersect with social values and challenge presumptions about the natural order and life.
'Upon completion of my PhD in Denmark, I wanted to further build on my knowledge and experience in synthetic organic chemistry. The Marie Curie fellowship gave me the chance to work on an exciting research project with potential applications in the treatment of allergic disorders. As an added bonus, this would also bring me closer to my girlfriend who lives in London.'
Because doing excellent research means living in an excellent environment, Marie Curie Actions allow their fellows to integrate their private and professional lives. This is fitting for Jimmy, who works on a new series of small drug-like molecules based on natural products for potential anti-asthma/allergy therapeutic applications. Improving the life of allergy sufferers.
'The Marie Curie fellowship gave me a real chance to learn new scientific techniques, in my case, running fluid dynamic experiments. The benefits of the grant are simply that I am now working in a new country with new people and new challenges.'
John is working on the formation of cratonic basins and how it relates directly to the wider question of long-term stability of continental platforms. Marie Curie Actions fund all topics of research, from economics to mathematics and plate tectonics. This approach means that all fields are covered by the most innovative and excellent brains in Europe and beyond.
'Applying for my own research funding was an important step for my research career. Having completed one postdoctoral position already, I needed to be able to demonstrate my potential to attract research funding. The Marie Curie fellowship was an excellent opportunity to do this and they substantially increased the likelihood of both future funding and a permanent research position down the line.'
John works on visual crowding, the disruptive effect of 'clutter' on our ability to recognise objects, despite their being identifiable in isolation (the more you see, the less you see). He uses psychophysical experiments and computational modelling to explore new aspects of visual crowding. His work will help design effective artificial vision. And spot Wally.
'The Marie Curie Actions grant helped me enter more deeply into the philosophical research areas that I have specialized in and gave me the opportunity to form new research collaborations.'
Marie Curie Actions fund all fields of research, including social sciences, allowing them to tackle all the grand challenges of tomorrow, as identified in the Europe 2020 strategy. Among them is climate change. Karin is actually working on the philosophical approach to climate change. What solutions does our society need to find? How can we implement them in an ever-changing environment?
'The Marie Curie Actions Intra- European Fellowship was on top of my priority list of fellowships due to its prestige, attractive mobility allowances as well as the networking and support benefits it proposes.'
Keira's research will further our understanding of a bacterium that can cause meningitis (a bacterial infection of the brain). The Marie Curie Actions finance hundreds of projects on public health issues. The prestige of Marie Curie fellowships and the autonomy given to researchers both underpin their success. The grants cover conference costs and their travel expenses, enabling fellows to attend key conferences and interact with their peers.
'I applied for a Marie Curie fellowship a few months after I defended my thesis. I was working on fundamental aspects of the physics of materials, investigating how materials break, from the atomic to the macroscopic scale. This study inspired me many ideas on how to design stronger materials.'
Today, Laurent works at the California Institute of Technology, an exceptional scientific environment where he was offered the material and intellectual means to develop his project successfully, among the founding fathers of Fracture Mechanics. Marie Curie Actions allow the best researchers to carry out projects in the most prestigious research institutions. Just like Laurent at CalTech.
'Now, it is my turn to attract in my new group a highly qualified researcher, also eligible for a Marie Curie fellowship. I'm looking forward to taking my next step as a group leader and I really want to thank Marie Curie Actions for this.'
After a first post-doctoral fellowship in France, Lionel decided to pursue his training in a specific laboratory in London leading in cancer immunotherapies. Thanks to the Marie Curie grant abroad, he now holds a position of research group leader in his home country. Further practical proof that mobility works in research. Just like with Marie Curie Actions.
'The Marie Curie Actions fellowship gave me the scientific and financial independence to achieve this project and provided me with enough resources and flexibility to convince me that the move could work not only for my career, but also for my family.'
Climate change is a concern for many European citizens. Lisa is working hard to gain a better understanding of various aspects of the problem, notably on underground storage of carbon and CO2 gas. Thanks to the Marie Curie Actions she was able to move with her family from one country to the other. Moreover, the fellowship helped Lisa get a permanent position in her host institution. Marie Curie Actions promote excellent employment conditions for researchers with permanent contracts.
'The Marie Curie fellowship is an important opportunity to develop my research on visual studies and on semiotic-social meanings of images: modernity and advertising poster in Paris at the beginning of 20th century.'
Marie Curie Actions cover all topics of research like, in the case of Luca, important aspects of European identity through the study of posters in Paris as 'social events'. He uses these images as a source of documentation of social practices. These defined the future evolution of advertising, with influences still visible today. It was as innovative back then as Luca is today.
'When I read that my Marie Curie project was accepted, I felt like opening the window of my room and enjoying that fantastic spring day. The first thing I did was to call my mother and my family to tell them the great news.'
Maria works on gene therapy to treat cases of liver failure. She was originally denied the opportunity to carry on her research on the topic, but the Marie Curie grant made it possible for her to obtain funding in an elite institution. The project impacted directly upon a number of inter-related disciplines which provided her with the opportunity to develop skills in relation to research management, presentation, and questions on ethics.
'Thanks to the Marie Curie Actions, working under a "standard contract" including all social insurances gives me the security I need to concentrate on my research and even allowed me to bring my family to such a fascinating place like the British capital. This would not have been possible with other less generous funding schemes.'
Markus works on neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease and Focal Hand Dystonia. Parkinson's disease alone affect 2 % of the 50 year old and plus population. To gain a better understanding of the complex phenomena at play in these diseases, he needs access to facilities, funding and his loved ones. Marie Curie Actions allowed him to have exactly that.
'The Marie Curie fellowship is very attractive because it is based on merit and genuinely promotes excellence, which grants researchers with a prominent status at the European and international level. Also, it provides the necessary conditions to develop an indepth research. Third, the basic concept of mobility pushes the researcher to broaden his intellectual horizon and to acquire a truly European and international mindset.'
Ottavio works on the legal issues regarding private security companies, which sell security services like armed guards, criminal investigation or alarm systems. Over the past decade, the activity of these companies has been constantly increasing, notably during the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. His research studies the regulatory network currently in place for private security companies, examining possible reforms.
'I decided to apply for a Marie Curie fellowship because they are very prestigious and I knew they would give me the possibility to carry on my own research project independently. Also, it improved considerably my quality of life as it pays very well which is particularly important in a city like London.'
Olga is doing research on cellular pathways which will most probably be linked to neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Thanks to the European grant, she was able to carry out her work in London. This move would have been very hard without Marie Curie Actions, which focus on mobility and training of the most excellent researchers in the world.
'Th e Marie Curie fellowship helped me improve my scientifi c skills and reach professional maturity. It allowed me to make decisions concerning the experimental approaches but also the project administration. Th e grant also gave me the opportunity to discover diff erent ways to lead a scientifi c group and establish collaborations for my next professional projects.'
Pilar will surely benefit from the European support from a professional point of view, but the mobility dimension of the programme will also allow her to improve her knowledge of a foreign language and to meet new people with different cultures, customs and way of thinking. Her study on epigenetic mechanisms of plants could have some applications for agriculture with higher crop productivity by improving plant resistance to drought or salt for instance.
'When I applied to a Marie Curie programme, I did not have the faintest idea of the fantastic experience I would have for the next three years! I have always been interested in research and being from South Africa, the opportunity to come to Europe – to a whole different world in terms of science and research – was a dream come true.'
Raelize is part of a research training project combining institutions from Europe and beyond. It focuses on developing the transport infrastructures of tomorrow, to meet the targets for European competitiveness and to design processes that will deliver cheap and sustainable transport. Marie Curie Actions are at the core of training the next generation of PhD candidates.
'After more than three years working as a post-doctoral fellow at Harvard University, I started looking for opportunities to relocate to Europe in the best conditions possible. I realized that a Marie Curie grant would provide my projects with substantial momentum given the large flexibility the funding allows in using the money.'
Romain is a great example of what Europe needs in terms of research. He did a post-doctoral fellowship in Harvard and applied for a Marie Curie reintegration grant after he decided to relocate to France. There, he developed collaborations with other European labs before obtaining a permanent position in CNRS. He then received a grant from the European Research Council, but that is the next part of his story.
'I am living a dream that comes true again every single day. The Marie Curie fellowship has put me in a stimulating environment with outstanding researchers, which is most likely to facilitate my scientific production. Thus I can extend the record of my papers by a considerable amount, both in qualitative and in quantitative terms, and achieve standards of definite excellence.'
Salvo works on mathematical models for technological devices such as satellites, antennas and medical imaging setups. Marie Curie allowed this highly-skilled researcher to work in the best environment possible, take on new challenges and cross unexplored frontiers. To remain competitive, Europe needs to invest 3 % of its wealth in research. And in excellent researchers like Salvo.
'I decided to apply for a Marie Curie fellowship mainly because I wanted to experience a different research environment and extend my research network. I think it is really important for researchers to have experience at various institutions and in different countries, as each of them has a different research culture.'
Sarah's quote means a lot, since she works on the European Union's asylum and migration policy, within the European agencies in charge of these topics. Marie Curie Actions fund any domain of research, including social sciences. Thanks to talented people like Sarah, Europe will benefit from a set of relevant findings in policy-making fields.
'When I started to prepare my Marie Curie fellowship application, I felt it could represent a unique opportunity, not only for the development of my scientific career but also for my life in general. It allowed me to choose my ideal research group, explore my own ideas and acquire and develop the skills and tools for my career as an independent scientist.'
Tiago is doing research on patient response to cancer treatment. Europe has decided to put health and well-being at the centre of its political agenda for the years to come. Marie Curie Actions is one of the tools to work on the problem, relying on excellent researchers like Tiago.
'My time as a Marie Curie fellow has been a highlight of my post-doctoral experience. The fellowship has lived up to its reputation and my greatest expectations. My time as a post-doctoral fellow has enabled me to acquire additional expertise in areas which will be critical to my future research endeavours.'
Vanessa is the perfect example of a Marie Curie fellow. Working on health issues, she managed to obtain two Marie Curie grants; one to carry out her research abroad and one to establish herself later in her career. Her excellence has taken her across continents, from France to the USA and back, with stops in Canada and Japan, the country where she was born. Today, she is thinking about involving international industry partners in her work.
'After a two-year post-doctoral training period in Mexico, the Marie Curie fellowship represented the best option to reintegrate the European research environment within optimal working conditions: a good salary, a renowned host institute and a significant amount of funding for travelling, which would allow me to communicate on my work and to develop new collaborations.'
Véronique is a researcher in astrophysics. Her work will help us better understand the distant Universe. But before she can do so, she needs to find a place in a lab, build her own networks and increase her visibility. This is a small price to pay for such an ambitious objective. Marie Curie Actions are here to support bright minds exactly like hers.
'Studying physics and work on science is my biggest childhood dream. The Marie Curie Actions represent one of the best opportunities I had to make it come true. Because it allowed me to choose the place and the collaborators I prefer. In other words, this means working exactly the way I wanted to.'
Vincenzo works on the fairly complicated concept of quantum physics: metamaterials. These artificial materials have properties that may not be found in nature, with potential applications in fields like cloaking and optical devices. Metamaterials will hopefully one day have an impact on the everyday life of European citizens. Marie Curie Actions let him grapple with his research by giving him the environment he needs to do so.
'After of my PhD, I wanted to go further in academic research and go abroad to improve my foreign language skills and acquire professional experience there. In that framework, the Marie Curie grant gave me the opportunity to develop my own research project with a large degree of autonomy.'
Xavier undertakes research on the nervous system. He wanted to travel, discover new cultures and new ways to carry out research. He also needed independence in his work and to be released from the burden of looking for funding while dealing with tight deadlines. Marie Curie Actions were ideal for him.
'I am a researcher in computational fluid dynamics from Tianjin University, China. As my objective was mainly to collaborate with Europe's most outstanding experts, the prestigious Marie Curie grant was a precious opportunity for me. I believe my research experience through this MCA grant will build up a solid foundation for my life-long research career.'
Because the brightest ideas come from mixing the brightest minds from all over the world, Marie Curie Actions were glad to bring excellent talents like Xu Dong to Europe.

In honor of International Talk Like a Pirate Day, we headed down to Long Beach on Saturday for Pyrate Daze. Held aboard the Queen Mary, Pyrate Daze is a two-day event featuring music, masquerade, merchandise and even a cannon show. The pirates far outnumbered the steampunks, but the latter brought with them an element of Victorian-influenced fantasy. Both groups came armed with creativity and dressed in brilliantly detailed costumes, but we had to wonder, did one outdo the other?
