Swedish design: upwardly mobile
Post a comment
STOCKHOLM, Sweden Even more than in most countries, it seems that life simply can't be lived here without a mobile phone. The industrious Swedes continue to come up with new ways to use the cell, ranging from helping the blind find their way to outgunning the BlackBerry in delivering mobile e-mail.
A whirlwind tour around Stockholm, its bustling suburbs and one of Sweden's technology hubs to the south, Norrkoping Science Park, revealed a hotbed of development– some of it disruptive, some of it in the category of technologies searching for a solution.
A recurring theme here is moving the Internet to the mobile phone. But that requires squeezing
busy Web pages down to tiny, hard-to-read displays. Currently, most pages have to be reworked before they can be displayed on mobile phones, and most look lousy when compared with PC or Mac pages.
One startup (and there are an impressive number of tech startups in Sweden), Mobizoft, has come up with a way to improve the rendering of Web pages on mobile-phone displays.
Founded in 2005, Mobizoft claims its Publish2Mobile tool improves the delivery and presentation of mobile Web pages by leveraging device- and browser-specific data. The tool also offers image compression and conversion. Another Mobizoft product, Content-4Mobile, is being promoted as allowing users to post videos to the Web directly from a mobile phone.
On the road
Scandinavia has been a good test market for the tools, said Mobizoft board chairman Jorma Mobrin. Nevertheless, he and company CEO and tool developer Maria Christensen recently completed a U.S. road show to demonstrate their products to large but unidentified content developers. Those developers are searching for ways to stream video to cell phones in a manner that will approximate the viewing quality of a PC.
Swedish technology companies are also at the forefront of efforts to incorporate navigation into mobile phones. But those efforts go beyond merely guiding a tourist to a restaurant, for instance. The local government in Stockholm wants to replace, or at least augment, the seeing-eye dog with wireless devices that can guide the blind around this exquisite but, in some places, cramped city.
One effort, overseen by a startup called Mobile Sorcery, seeks to combine navigation technology with audio to deliver location-based services for the blind and the elderly. While the challenges faced by the blind in a large city are obvious, Henrik von Shoultz, Mobile Sorcery's vice president of business development, noted that about 10 elderly or disabled citizens get lost in the city on average every day.
The company tapped into the local government's large database, developed under its Intelligent Transportation System program, to come up with a mobile-phone-based prototype of a system that could help guide the blind from their homes to, say, the grocery store. Users enter a key on a handset to determine the best route to a destination. A mobile-phone earpiece tells them in advance when and how much to turn, alerts them to obstacles, and updates them on how far it is to their ultimate destination.
Developers Tomas Upgard, Mobile Sorcery's chief executive, and Antony Hartley, its CTO, quickly realized that GPS navigation can't cut it in modern cities as a tool for guiding pedestrians or bike riders. An accuracy of 4 meters or less is needed to determine, for example, the side of the street on which a pedestrian is walk- ing. That's too precise a measurement for GPS.
Company engineers found that, when used in large cities, consumer GPS data is plagued by multipath problems, causing GPS signals to drift. Their solutions included filtering and a dead-reckoning system to provide users with better position data.
Using an off-the-shelf dead-reckoning system developed for the military by Honeywell that incorporates a gyroscope and compass as a "step counter," Mobile Sorcery engineers tweaked the prototype with internally developed algorithms to make the system more accurate.
Von Shoultz said 12 users are currently testing the prototype system as part of Stockholm's e-Adept program. A product is scheduled to be ready by 2009, he said. The company is also touting a mobile-phone development application called MoSync, a collection of tools designed to ease the growing problem of developing and porting software to mobile devices.

The survival of the so-called "fake fighter" is a phenomenon that has baffled scientists since the dawn of time, yet somehow he manages to wiggle his way into society and annoy the rest of us. Real fighter Kurt Pellegrino and MMA Girl Joanne have some direction on how to act when you come across one of these faux-maniacs.
A fake fighter, easily identifiable, is very simply someone who wants to be a fighter but doesn't have it between the legs to actually train and jump inside the cage. They'll wander around popular spots where women are known to be and one might expect to find an actual fighter (bars, gyms, etc.). Look for your fake fighter to have an unusually orange tan, sport his fight shorts in public, and of course, have perfectly symmetrical ears. They'll probably be drinking some kind of protein shake and will be obnoxiously recalling "this one time" when he was "training" and his buddy "totally f***ed up this other dude" in one of the "sickest submissions ever." Of course, none of this is true. He's describing a scene out of a Bruce Lee movie. In the most extreme cases, he'll actually butt his way into your conversation and volunteer information about his blossoming fight career.
As a quick reference, you can pretty much assume anyone on this site claiming to be a fighter is a phony.
It should be noted that these charlatans are not limited to MMA. You'll find this type of imitator following pretty much any sport. Or anything that might help you score some tail, really. If you're ever unfortunate enough to bump into one of these pseudo studs, Kurt Pellegrino can be seen as a model of how to act.
Kurt will actually be fighting Josh Neer on August 8th at UFC 101 in Philadelphia.

Italian political farce meets classic American sitcom in Ron Jenkins' translation of this 1974 Dario Fo play. Jenkins' version, which premiered in 1999, infuses I Love Lucy and The Honeymooners into Fo's comic tragedy, and director Scott Rognlien and his cast have made the most of the uneven material by interacting with the audience and keeping the physical action fast and tight. Though the repetitive script needs more editing, this two-hour production is sharply directed and enjoyable.
There's a preshow introduction with jokes and instructions, as if the audience were attending a sitcom taping. Rob Smith and producer Eric Normington ask the crowd to adhere to "applause" and "laugh" signs, though everyone is allowed to laugh and clap whenever the mood strikes them. The story concerns wives Antonia and Margherita (Annie Terry and Chris Cookson), who closely resemble TV's Lucy and Ethel. Antonia tells her friend about her trip to the grocery store, where all of the women-fed up with rising prices-decided not to pay for food. Antonia, afraid her law-abiding husband, Giovanni (Michael Cornacchia), will be angry if he finds the groceries, hides some and gives the rest to Margherita, who stashes them under her coat. But when Giovanni sees Margherita's bulging stomach, Antonia says her friend is pregnant, a secret that even her husband, Luigi (Zoran Radanovich), doesn't know. Once the lies start flying, the rest is mayhem, much of it perpetrated by actor Matt Taylor, who plays several roles, including a nosy State Trooper and a doddering Grandfather.
The ensemble successfully executes the script's broad comedy without resorting to caricature. Terry's loud and outgoing attitude blends well with Cookson's understated style. Cornacchia, as Giovanni, echoes the grand gestures and vocal inflections of Jackie Gleason. The multifaceted Taylor elicits the most laughs; he shuttles effortlessly from one character to the next, giving each a ridiculous accent and an even stranger walk. Both acts bog down in the middle, but Rognlien keeps the scenes lively. Also, having Normington and Smith holding audience cue cards and making comments from their seats in the audience is an inspired touch.
Presented by Next Arena at the Pan Andreas Theatre, 5125 Melrose Ave., L.A. Thu.-Sun. 8 p.m. (Dark Sun. 8 p.m. Nov.25-Dec. 3.) Nov. 4-Dec. 3. (323) 960-7861.

A FRESH snowy scene greeted many this morning — but the unexpected snowfall has led to major disruptions across Pendle and the rest of Lancashire.
Despite efforts by the council to grit the main roads, many people are still struggling to get off their own streets, with neighbours rallying to help push stranded cars onto safer roads.
The MET Office is warning of further potential snowfall over the Pennines and East Lancashire.
According to Lancashire County Council over a hundred schools have been closed across the county with 26 closed in Pendle. The shut schools are: Barnoldswick Coates Lane Primary School, Barnoldswick C of E Voluntary Controlled Primary School, Barrowford St Thomas C of E Primary School, Blacko Primary School, Bradley Primary School, Brierfield Woodfield Nursery School, Colne Christ Church C of E Primary School, Colne Newtown Nursery School, Colne Park Primary School, Foulridge Saint Michael and All Angels C of E VA Primary School, Great Marsden St John's C of E Primary School, Holy Saviour RC Primary School Nelson, Lomeshaye Junior School, Lord Street Primary School Colne, Marsden Community Primary School, Nelson St Philip's C of E Primary School, Nelson Whitefield Infant School and Nursery Unit, Pendle Vale College, Pendle View Primary School, Reedley Primary School, Roughlee C of E Primary School, Ss John Fisher and Thomas More RC High School Colne, St Joseph's RC Primary School Barnoldswick, Walter Street Primary School.
Many Pendle residents have taken to twitter both lamenting and praising the snowy weather.
Tim Ashton, Lancashire County Councillor and Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport has commented that, gritting crews have been "working hard since the current cold snap began", and went on to say the "top priority" has been clearing "the network of A and B roads",
Coun. Ashton said: "It could be some time before the main routes are clear and we have the resources available to treat the secondary network of more minor roads."
Coun. Ashton has also urged the public to be prepared and check on nieghbours who they know to be vulnerable, and to check their vehicles are equipped for winter. He also asks people to "carefully consider whether they need to make journey at all".
While minor side streets are still snow covered, traffic on main roads appears to be moving, albeit slowly. The M65 is experiencing delays, with traffic reported to be moving slowly. There is disruption on the M6 between Junction 29 Lostock Hall and Junction 31 Preston.

Cruise stars as the ex-military cop in Christopher McQuarrie's adaptation of Lee Child's popular mystery book series.
A new trailer for Jack Reacher provides a much clearer picture of what kind of movie we're going to be getting from this adaptation of Lee Child's popular mystery book series.
We find out a lot about Tom Cruise's Jack Reacher very early on in the new two-and-a-half minute clip for writer/director Christopher McQuarrie's film. Reacher is a former cop in the military police, "a brilliant investigator" and "a troublemaker, too."
In the film, based on the book One Shot, Reacher is investigating a man who he thinks was framed for murdering five people in a series of sniper killings.
When a lady lawyer is taken hostage, the very confident Reacher explains to the bad guys that he's not who they think he is.

HOUSTON, April 17, 2003 -- Rice University chemists hope a new variant of vancomycin that contains buckyballs -- tiny cage-shaped molecules of pure carbon -- could become the world's first targeted antibiotic, creating a new line of defense against bioweapons like anthrax.
Vancomycin, which entered clinical service 40 years ago, is the antibiotic of last resort, given only when all others fail. Unfortunately, vancomycin-resistant strains of bacteria have appeared in recent years.
In an effort to reinvigorate vancomycin, researchers have created vancomycin conjugates -- pairs of vancomycin molecules joined by an intermediate molecule that acts as a bridge -- some of which have proven more effective at killing resistant bacteria.
Rice Chemistry Professor Lon Wilson decided to create a buckyball-vancomycin conjugate following years of work developing biochemical targeting mechanisms for buckyballs, spherical cages containing 60 carbon molecules. By linking antibodies to a buckyball with anticancer drugs attached to it, Wilson and two of his graduate students, Tatiana Zakharian and Jared Ashcroft, are creating targeted compounds that will bind only with certain cells, like those found in melanoma tumors, for example.
"Having the ability to target antibiotics to attack specific bacterial antigens opens the door for treatments that simply aren't available today," said Wilson. "For example, we believe it's feasible to create a C60-vancomycin conjugate that attaches to anthrax while it is still in the spore form."
Weaponized anthrax is delivered in spores, a dormant form in which the disease is encased in a rugged shell. Once the spore finds its way into a living host, it germinates and becomes active.
Wilson said vancomycin can attack anthrax only after it germinates. However, having the ability to affix the antibiotic to a spore could enable the drug to knock the disease out when it tries to emerge from hibernation, before it has a chance to spread throughout the body and release its toxins.
A postdoctoral fellow in Wilson's lab, Dr. Andrey Mirakyan, recently presented preliminary results of the work at this spring's American Chemical Society annual meeting and they expect to publish research findings soon.
This research was sponsored by the Welch Foundation.

WVU has established an academic partnership between the P.I. Reed School of Journalism and the US Defense Information School.
DINFOS is the Pentagon's premier center for public affairs and visual information training.
This partnership is the first of its kind.
WVU said veterans and military personnel from the university and DINFOS will be able to learn from each other.
"I think there's a lot we can learn from that and I think that our faculty will really enjoy looking at some of their students and looking at both the similarities and difference of how we teach those skills," said Maryanne Reed, dean of the P.I. Reed School of Journalism at WVU.
The program will bring the military photographer of the year to the university for a guest lecture.

"Riveting....She exposes the dark secrets of a rarified society." (New York Post)
"Deliciously dark....A killer read." (People)
"Funny and Funny!!!"
What a great book to keep you entertained, yet engaged as each chapter builds its mysterious cliff hanger. The narrator is so perfect for the story. She is articulate and has the right tone for each character. Bravo on this selection.
Witty, funny, engaging, light mystery....what more could I ask for!
"I loved it!"
This book was just great fun. The reader was wonderful, slipping easily in and out of characters and the mystery element kept me going. Jane Stanton Hitchcock has a real feel for upper crust New York society, the older money, the jockeying for position. If it was not a perfectly constructed tale, it was one of those times you really didn't care because the ride was so fun. I'm getting another of her books now.
"Loved this book!"
This book got me hooked on reading all the rest of Jane Stanton Hitchcock's books. I certainly don't fly in the high society world that Jo Slater does, and I have no idea how true it is, but I found the characters engaging and the suspense intriguing. Barbara Rosenblatt is an entertaining reader.
"entertaining summer listen"
Sassy, funny entertatining and suspenseful, this high-society mystery-thriller will keep you interested without demanding too much concentration. Perfect for road trips, poolside or cardio. Long, but not boring at all.
"Worth it!"
This is a modern mystery novel that is much better than most. This is not a classic, but the writer avoids about every pitfall that I find annoying and distracting in this genre. It was a very good, enjoyable read. The narrator is a witty, interesting, and believable character. This is not a thrill ride, but an enjoyable cart ride, with just a bit of tension and quite a lot of humor. The reader was excellent, adding to my enjoyment.
"Neat Story"
i though it was a classy story involving a good mystery and a glance into the realm of the 'upper crust' cast of characters with their 'behind the facade' personalities, issues & behaviors. Frankly i hope Mrs. Hitchcock will write many more and have them all narrated again by my favorite voice, Ms. Rosenblat.
"One Classy Author"
I read Ms. Hitchcock's most recent book, Mortal Friends, first and enjoyed it so much that I went back and read all of her books. This book follows Social Crimes and it's best -- but not necessary -- to read that before One Dangerous Lady. I loved learning about the New York social scene, which is presented in a way that isn't all about designer labels and wretched excess. Rather, there is much focus on eleemosynary activities. The murder mystery has myriad twists and turns, keeping the reader up late at night turning pages. The characters are very well-developed and I really cared what happened to most of them.
"Better Then Expected!"
It took about an hour of listening to this book before I was hooked! From then on I was anxious to get back to it ane chose every opportunity to do so. I particularly enjoyed Betty and her wry sense of humor. The narration was superb....download it.......you won't be disapointed!
"One Twisted Lady"
A good listen and a good story. The characters are colorfully drawn and there are times you want to scream at the good guys - 'look out, she's setting you up'. There are enough turns that the ending isn't predictable. I will read the authors other stores and hope she writes more books about Jo Slater's (and her crazy friends Betty and June) adventures.

As "Life Is Good Blues" attests, Veirs is blooming, romantically and musically, after finding love with long-term drummer and producer Tucker Martine. While holding fast to her hard-edged riot grrrl vocals, plucked guitars and warm harmonies signal a move away from the heavier folk-rock sound of earlier albums. From the woozy charm of "Sun Is King" to the lush release of "Where Are You Driving?" this album brims with uplifting choruses and joyful strings, perfectly capturing one summer of love.

Bit late and a long shot I know but driving from manchester to Cornwall tomorrow with 2 young kids so will need to stop and let them burn off some energy at some point. Preferably a park but i guess motorway services with play areas is more likely. Somewhere after Birmingham and somewhere Exeter-ish I'm thinking, need to be close to motorway coz its a long enough drive as it is without detours, what u got?
Chat Forum
Kid friendly motorway stop offs
Forest of Dean maybe? Bit of a detour but worth it if you are stopping for more than a quick stretch of the legs. Come off M5 at Gloucester and back on the motorway at Chepstow.
See if there is an OK diner to stop and eat at
And avoid Gordano and Bridgewater services!
Depending on time of day, a detour into Bristol might be OK - lots to do and laces to eat.
Weston Super Mare? My lot got forced off the M5 there a few weeks back. Quite enjoyed an hour on the beach.
one of the ones on the M6 has a play area- most of them have something small and crap for them to play on
Pot luck but here is a list of one son the M5 with a play area
At least the car is plenty roomy for you all
Less than 5 minutes off the motorway. Nice reasonable value cafe. Great play area. Woods.
OK Diner at Cannock on the A5, great place for everyone to eat
Marvin fod is nice but according to google about 40mins detour, bit far I think
Martin not looking like beach weather tomorrow but if it brightens up a good shout, looks easy enough to get to, cheers.
Cheers aracer that looks promising too.
Junkyard borrowed my dads corsa thats about an extra 3 square feet of cabin space and a whole 1200cc of throbbing power, 50% upgrade poooooooweeeeer.
Have you lowered it , put some alloys on it and a big bore exhaust
I've stalled it a few times :-)' Nah just added DVD headrest thingies for the kids, already has alloys, my family are suckers for optional extras, if corsas had a heated wing mirror option this would have it.
Isn't there a Diggerland just off the M5 in South Som/Devon somewhere?
If you're looking for cheap places to stop and grab a bite around Brum, there's a big ASDA with a cafe on the roundabout at J2 of the M5. And Ikea just north of the M5 has the usual ball pond nonsense and a cheapish restaurant.
Weston has arcades and stuff if it's a bit rainy.
Isn't there a Diggerland just off the M5 in South Som/Devon somewhere?
Tiverton. J27
We stop at National Trust properties (members, so we get in for free).
This is our Manchester - Cornwall stop off. Just off the M5 near Bristol.
The visitors centre, barn, cafe, playground bit is very good for a picnic and it is covered. Not actually made it up to the house yet.
HtS I was subjected to too many NT places as a kid, scarred for life, kids are only 2 and 3 anyway so bit young to be taking them there
Cheers for the digger land info will bear that in mind, eldest loves diggers.
Thanks all, setting off imminently, wish us luck
My youngest was only 2 when we went there last summer. Picnic in a covered courtyard, clean toilets, decent coffee from the cafe and a big tractor for the little ones to climb on for half an hour.
Have fun.
Where are you going to?
If you've kids in the car I'd just keep it to a couple of short loo stops & a stop for lunch.
If your using the M6 toll road then Norton Caines services is ok.
If not then I'd get south of Brum before you stop, probably the first services on the M5 at West brom.
For lunch/tea I'd give Weston a miss, its too far off the motorway & can get queues into town when busy.
Head into Clevedon, the junction before Weston. Its nearer the motorway & usually quieter. There is a nice little play-park with a car-park on the "sea" front, & a chip shop on the way. There is a Tesco also. CLICK
Not sure of any places on the A30 but if your going the A38 way then Stover Country park is a few mins off the A38.
Second the National Trust suggestion. Get the book. Stopped at Clumber Park near Leeds the other day while heading North, very nice it was, even had a soft play area for toddlers. Blobby jr is only 15 months so a quick pit stop isn't really an option on a long journey unfortunately.
This is less than a mile off the Weston junction of the M5 (and critically, in the opposite direction to Weston!): http://www.puxton.co.uk/ Indoor/outdoor play and a decent size cafe...
Thinking about places we've stopped on the way down to Cornwall, Castle Drogo is nice. May be a bit too close to your destination though. It's off the A30 near Exeter.
Well that was a waste of time asking, both of em fell asleep before birmingham, I had worcester woods and weston in mind for stops, drove passed both while they were sleeping, about 2mins after weston turn off eldest woke up and said he needed a wee so ended up in brent knoll, bit of grass for a picnic and little climbing frame park, not great but did the job. Coming home was a similar experience. Nevermind will bear your suggestions in mind for future trips.
Hotel was in camborne, we were visiting family in penzance, lots of driving up and down the A30 saw loads of lejog/joglers, quite fancy doing it myself but I'd be avoiding the A30, would hate to ride that.

Here's how it happened. When my mom asked me what she could give me for my 50th birthday, I said "A Broadway show and a nice meal, just the two of us." The restaurant she chose was one of her faves, Marea, but then she changed her mind—her pal Cynthia, with whom she was staying on the UN-traffic-clogged East Side, said we had, had, had to go to Omar's—only open ten weeks. I hadn't heard of it. Checked it out on Urban Daddy—interesting but I hate clubs. I looked into the namesake and thought, South American party boy—I don't know, Ma. But she'd reserved it, even ordered a car for after the theater for the special occasion, so I didn't argue. It's in one of my favorite neighborhoods, West Ninth between Fifth and Sixth, and we descended from the sidewalk to Read On »

Lollygagging in the West Village a few weeks ago, Donna and her pal Lee wandered into the Fatty 'Cue, and there found one of the servers experimenting with fat-washed rye. I had that very week been working with a schmaltz-washed rye (whiskey infused with the fat's flavor), so I took it as an omen owing to my wife's unfailing good karma. She fired off some quick shots and I asked Wilmer, above, for the story and the results. Here with the Friday cocktail, a spicy take on the classic Manhattan that morphed into a kind of Old-Fashioned, thanks to the ingenious Massa Syrup, and Fatty 'Cue's "master fat," combination of fat from various meats, clarified.

We've taken up part-time residence in Manhattan and discovered that our downstairs neighbor is Tobin Ludwig, one of the partners in Hella Bitters. We were having cocktails in his apartment when he passed around some exquisite cantaloupe. In season, it was juicy and sweet; chewing, Tobin said, "This would go great in a cocktail." And the challenge was on. He would follow the local and seasonal in creating an elegant summer cocktail using cantaloupe and the basil that is in full flourish, infusing reposado tequila, made from the highly vegetal cactus plant, with this herbaceous leaf. "Basil is a great cocktail ingredient," Tobin says, "because it's so versatile. It can go savory or sweet."

Taking up part-time residence in New York City last month, I was delighted to meet a downstairs neighbor, Tobin Ludwig, who makes the lovely Hella Bitters. What good karma for our new old building! "What is your favorite use of bitters?" I asked. For someone who makes bitters, he struggled. I pushed. He relented and said, "A rum old fashioned." What a splendid idea, I thought. Last night a tweet asked me for a cocktail with a good rum. And so there it was. The rum old-fashioned called. The weather has cooled, I have some most excellent rum, and the sweetness and the bitters combine for a great summer rum cocktail. But lo—there was more, karma-wise. I returned to my original old-fashioned post and noticed that I'd used Hella bitters, long before I'd met Tobin! Read On »

Tokyo city travel
hello Daniel, i am travelling to Tokyo city from Narita to Rappongi where i am staying then spending 5 days travelling around Tokyo visiting such things as fish markets, Ueno zoo, Oedo Onsen Monogatari, Ryogoku Sumo Stadium plus some other areas in Tokyo city.
i have heard that the NEX Tokyo Direct ticket is the ticket i should buy to travel from Narita to accommodation in Rappongi as it is very cheap for foreigners.
I am then catching the bullet train to Kyoto and spending two nights in Kyoto before catching a train from Kyoto to Osaka airport.
the question is, should i buy a 7 day Japan Rail pass for the Narita- Rappongi trip, Tokyo-Kyoto trip, Kyoto-Osaka trip, and can i use the rail pass for my Tokyo city train travels?
Hi Cath,
The JR Pass would cover all of your travel. However all together your travel costs will be below the price of a 7 day JR Pass and therefor I would advise buying normal tickets as you travel. The only expansive travel part is Tokyo - Kyoto and the JR Pass would work great if you made a return but it's better to stick with normal tickets for just one way.
Osaka - Kyoto are also very close and a trip between both cities only takes 560/29minutes.
I would also advise buying the 1,500yen Narita Express ticket for your arrival.
Hope this helps,

Let's show that horse welfare comes first
This week sees the return of the big fences at Aintree. After the controversy of last year's Grand National, the course executive could do with many things, a new sponsor for the big race among them.
The National, and indeed all the races over those spectacular spruce fences, is very special to me. From the excitement of watching as a youngster, to having the pleasure of experiencing the thrill first hand, it has always been something to cherish.
However, obviously, this is not a view shared by all. People protesting about the race is nothing new. It has always had detractors.
I have no time for organisations such as Animal Aid, but you have to say it runs an extremely effective PR campaign. You can…

Biography's Source: IBList user synopsis
Sept. 27, 1906 - April 7, 1977
Jim Thompson was the darkest and most innovative noir fiction writer of the 1950s and 60s pulp paperback era. He was born above the jailhouse in Anadarko, Oklahoma. His father, the sheriff and a congressional candidate, was the main inspiration for Thompsons most famous character, the psychotic sheriff Lou Ford. After his father split town under suspicion of embezzlement, the family was thrown into itinerancy. Their fortunes swung between polar extremes his father cashed out of a business partnership for a quarter of a million dollars in 1919 but most of the time they were paupers. In his teens Thompson worked as a bellboy, procuring bootleg liquor, call girls and drugs for guests and exposing him to the local criminal underworld; by age seventeen he had already begun his lifelong battle with alcoholism. In his early-twenties he worked bottom-end jobs in the oil fields and rode the rails as a hobo. He also later graduated from the University of Nebraska. During the Depression he was active in the Communist Party and became director of the Oklahoma Federal Writers Project.
Fellow Oklahoman and leftie Woody Guthrie helped Thompson get his first novel, Now and on Earth, published in 1942. After two more hardcover novels, he plunged into the burgeoning paperback original market, publishing ten books in 1953-54 alone. In 1955, director Stanley Kubrick tapped Thompson to co-write the screenplay for his first studio film, The Killing, but after Thompson protested about only getting a dialogue by credit, Kubrick agreed to hire him to write a draft for Paths of Glory and give him a proper credit. When Thompson died in Hollywood after a series of strokes at age 71, all of his 29 books were out-of-print in the U.S.
His prediction prior to his death that Ill be famous after Im dead about ten years, turned out to be right on. In 1984 Black Lizard Books began to reissue many of his best novels, jumpstarting a full-blown revival that culminated in several film adaptations of his work, including The Grifters (1990, directed by Stephen Frears), After Dark My Sweet (1991), and a remake of The Getaway (1994), and spearheaded a general resurgence of interest in pulp crime fiction.

A survey by the sex toy company Adam and Eve found that 77% of men have never faked it during sex . . . but 47% of women admit they have. Here are the top six reasons women give for faking it…
1. 35% of women . . . or one in three . . . said they faked it because "It just wasn't going to happen."
2. 23% said "I didn't want to hurt my partner's feelings."
3. 13% said "I wanted it to be over."
4. "I was tired": 7%.
5. "I was bored": 4%.
6. And 3% said they faked because they were "uncomfortable." Although we're not sure if that means they were physically uncomfortable, or just not down with the whole situation.

Hey, remember that movie "Shelter" starring Julianne Moore? Yeah, me neither. The film first surfaced way back in 2010 with a trailer when it was still going by "Shelter", but it's now gotten a new spiffy trailer and a new title, "6 Souls", and has located a limited theatrical run, though like most heavily delayed movies these days, you'll be able to stream it way before it hits theaters. It still stars Julianne Moore and Jonathan Rhys Meyers, though, in case you're wondering.
Bonus points: this film was the Hollywood debut of Swedish duo Mans Marlind and Bjorn Stein (I mean, how could they be anything but Swedish with those names?), who went on to direct the most recent "Underworld" movie with Kate Beckinsale, "Awakening".
After the death of her husband, Dr. Cara Harding's (Julianne Moore) faith in God has been shaken, but not her belief in science. In an attempt to open her up to accepting unexplainable psychiatric theories, her father introduces her to Adam, a patient with multiple personalities who takes on some of the physical characteristics of his other personalities. But, Cara quickly discovers that Adam's other personalities are murder victims and the more she finds out about him and his past, the closer she and her loved ones are to becoming murder victims themselves.
Interested? You'll be able to watch it on iTunes this March 1st before the film hits theaters in limited release April 5th.

SOMERSET'S Jamie Overton has started bowling again after spending the past 12 weeks recovering from tendonitis in his right knee, writes Richard Walsh.
The 19-year-old paceman, who missed the county squad's training camp in Pretoria, said: "I was suffering from it for most of last summer and managed it with the help of Ian Brewer and it seemed to go away but it came back later in the autumn."
Despite his injury last year Overton claimed 33 Championship wickets at just under 34 runs each, and ended the season being called up to join the England One Day squad for the series against Australia, although he didn't appear in any of the games.
Overton added: "I was then picked for the Lions tour to Sri Lanka but England decided that it was better for me to come back here to the club and focus on getting the injury sorted to hopefully be ready for the start of the coming season.
"My rehab programme has gone really well and I have been bowling for the last week or so off a half run-up with 70% intensity so I'm not too far away. All being well in a couple more weeks I hope I can be back to bowling full on.
"I should be fully fit going into the new season and would like to be ready for the University game that starts on Monday April 7. If I'm not quite ready for that then I want to be fit for the first Championship game.
"Hopefully I can push on and try to play in all formats for Somerset and then work towards a place in the England team. However first of all I want to focus on playing for Somerset.
"I am very pleased to have signed a new contract at the end of last season because I have always wanted to play for Somerset since I was really young and I want to do well for them."
Twin brother Craig is also back to full fitness so Somerset followers could well see an Overton bowling at both ends in 2014.
Jamie added: "Hopefully we can put in some good performances and help Somerset to win something.
"Last year went pretty well for me, but that is behind me now and I just want to focus on the new season that is soon coming up."
Somerset start their pre-season in earnest when they entertain Worcestershire in a three day game starting on Wednesday, March 19.

A 45-year-old man who Oklahoma City police arrested last month on charges of panhandling, says he makes $60,000 a year begging for money.
The man, Shane Speegle, was first approached by a police officer who told him that he needed a permit and an insurance policy to panhandle. The officer warned Speegle to leave, but arrested him after he was seen begging for money about 20 minutes later.

Nissan expanding "No Charge to Charge" program; all-access EZ-Charge card
17 April 2014
Nissan is expanding its successful "No Charge to Charge" promotion, which will provide two years of no-cost public charging with the purchase or lease of a new Nissan LEAF. In total, Nissan will launch "No Charge to Charge" in 25 US markets, which are currently responsible for more than 80 percent of Nissan LEAF sales.
The "No Charge to Charge" expansion will use the new EZ-Charge card, a new platform that will offer Nissan LEAF owners access to the leading EV charging networks with a single, all-access card. New owners will receive an EZ-Charge card that will provide access to chargers with ChargePoint, Blink Network from Car Charging Group, AeroVironment and NRG eVgo.
"No Charge to Charge" will launch using the EZ-Charge card on 1 July 2014, in 10 of the top markets for Nissan LEAF sales, including San Francisco, Sacramento, San Diego, Seattle, Portland, Ore., Nashville, Phoenix, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Houston and Washington, DC. The "No Charge to Charge" offer and EZ-Charge card will be provided retroactively to buyers in these markets who purchased their LEAF on or after 1 April 2014.
After the rollout in the first 10 markets, Nissan plans to add "No Charge to Charge" and EZ-Charge at LEAF dealers in at least 15 additional markets during the following year. More details on the programs in these additional markets will be made available closer to their launch.
The EZ-Charge access card is managed by NRG eVgo with support from ChargePoint, CarCharging and AeroVironment.

Keeping it in mind – Poetry By Heart
Writing West Midlands was delighted to be asked to run a Teachers' Days as part of the Poetry By Heart competition. As Chief Executive of Writing West Midlands, and as a reader of poetry for many years, I had a particular interest in the process of memorizing poetry and of speaking it from memory. I remember seeing Bertolt Brecht's son-in-law, Ekkehard Schall, performing Brecht's poems by heart nearly thirty years ago, and it struck me then how very powerful poetry could be when performed in absolute accord with the text. Of course, Brecht could not help but write poems that demanded to be spoken and heard, so the question hovering off-stage was whether the poems chosen for the Poetry By Heart anthology would be so happily declared.
We recruited the poet, novelist, and theatre director David Calcutt to join me in running the day. David has been writing and reading his poetry for many years, his poetic voice forged by an instinctive understanding of the responsibility undertaken by anyone who asks others to listen to their words in a public arena. In fact, our Teachers' Day started with a recollection of that glorious first phrase from Beowulf, 'Hwæt!', loosely translated as 'attend' or 'listen' but carrying with it the implication that what follows was worth hearing, and that both speaker and audience needed to be on their mettle. So, having set our flag at the very start of English poetry, we asked our group of teachers and poets to think about their own experiences of remembering any chain of words. The results were surprising…
Poetry figured, certainly. Several of our group had impressive quantities of Shakespeare and other canonical poets by heart. It was not quite a generational distinction, but certainly anyone under the age of thirty was less likely than their elders to have learned poetry by heart. Men of a certain age knew far too many lines from Morrissey's songs – although we resisted the temptation to discuss where song and poetry intersect – and nursery rhymes and advertising jingles had also lodged in people's minds.
The point, of course, was just the one Andrew Motion makes in his blog post 'Bigger and stronger hearts: poetry and memory', that we have 'a primitive appetite for this commitment of words to memory in ways that may be effortless or full of conscious endeavour', and this applies equally be they single pendants, bracelets, necklaces, or industrial chains of sound and sense.
The workshop then moved quickly on to trying to learn a poem, starting with 'Elegy' by Chidiock Tichborne (written in 1586). We spent some time looking closely at the text – that close reading that is necessary not just to understand the sense of the poem, but to identify whatever help the poet might be offering for the reader trying to learn it by heart. 'Elegy' provides dozens of 'hand-holds': the structure (three stanzas), the metre (fairly regular), the rhyme scheme (gloriously regular), the repetition of words and phrases (enough to help), and the narrative sense (a clear set of progressions). The more we looked, the more we found to help with memorization. And to prove our point we set out to learn the poem as a group there and then, each taking a line and using some classic theatre techniques.
By 'classic theatre techniques', David meant getting up on our feet and (at least initially) allowing some physicality to help with the cerebral process. Actors know that muscle-memory helps mental-memory, and although there's no need in a final reading to 'saw the air', to echo Hamlet's wise advice to his actors, movement helps. In fact, within twenty minutes we were able to perform the first two stanzas as an ensemble, using our relative positions in the workshop space as an aid to placing our individual lines accurately. Had we had time we'd have learned the whole poem, and I dare say many of us would have learned each other's lines. Although this may sound militaristic in its conformity, as poets remind us it is through structure and rules that originality flourishes. And it was fun.
The afternoon was spent working on learning Keith Douglas's chilling poem 'How To Kill', written shortly before his death in WW2. On the surface this looked a far more challenging poem to learn by heart, but again close study revealed patterns, structures, and narrative that both made the poem the work of genius it is and helped lodge it in the back of the head.
There is a lot more to say of what we learned on the day about memorizing and speaking poetry – we've not even mentioned speaking – but I'll finish by offering a quick checklist which we devised, of things to do when faced with the prospect of learning a poem by heart or, more pointedly, asking others to learn a poem by heart:
1. Look at meaning, context, and background
2. Look at shape on the page, patterns of words or sounds
3. Look at rhyme, metre, alliteration, etc.
4. Look at the structure of lines and the poem as a whole
5. Look at concrete and abstract images
6. Look at emotional patterns and the tone of the poem
7. Write out by hand or manipulate on screen
8. Change colour, point size, and spacing of words and lines
9. Create a mood board of the poem
10. Create actions or movements for the poem
11. Create a story board, re-tell the poem
12. Record yourself reading the poem and play back
13. Play movement games with lines of the poem
14. Learn the poem with other people
And finally, I still carry, in the pocket of a jacket I often wear, my now dog-eared photocopy of 'Elegy' by Chidiock Tichborne. I suspect this poem, at least, will be with me for the rest of my life.

Carrie has had a great year so far.
Carrie has had a great year so far.
Carrie will appear on Oprah Monday Dec 11th along with Josh Groban, Tony Bennet and more
I can only please one person a day, today is not your day and tomorrow doesn't look good either
Rumor has it that and more = Michael Buble. Carrie will sing JTTW per Oprahs request. That's 4 pretty awesome vocal styles.Originally Posted by combatcutie;2172226;
Carrie shows more class all the time. She speaks about Faith, stands up for herself against LeAnn, & praises AI. Good stuff.
Carrie Underwood: On Faith Hill and Paying Dues
"I Knew She Didn't Mean It," Grammy Nominee Tells CMT
By: CMT.com Staff
"Anybody who tries to say I haven't paid my dues, I guarantee you, hasn't been on American
Idol," Carrie Underwood told CMT Insider during a recent interview in Las Vegas.
With two Grammy nominations announced Thursday (Dec. 7), the whirlwind that began last year with Underwood's American Idol win only got stronger. In addition to a best female country performance nomination for "Jesus, Take the Wheel," she is the only country artist nominated for best new artist of all musical genres.
With her debut album, Some Hearts, certified quadruple platinum for shipments of 4 million copies, she's easily the hottest new thing in country music. This week alone, the Oklahoma native teamed with Kenny Rogers to sing "Islands in the Stream" during a tribute to Dolly Parton at the Kennedy Center Honors. The next night, she took home five trophies at the Billboard Music Awards.
Highlighting Underwood's year was the CMA Awards show, where she received the Horizon Award, an honor bestowed on artists who make particularly big strides in their careers. More surprising, perhaps, was her win in the female vocalist category that also included Sara Evans, Faith Hill, Martina McBride and Gretchen Wilson.
News of Underwood's female vocalist victory gained even more attention the following day when Hill's on-camera reaction hit the Internet and national television news programs. Hill quickly issued a statement explaining that she was just joking when she frowned and threw her hands up in the air after Underwood's name was announced.
In the interview with CMT Insider's Laura Douglas, Underwood spoke at length about the controversy.
"I was definitely surprised at how everything happened after the CMAs as far as the Faith Hill incident goes," Underwood said. "I mainly was just saddened because I knew it was going to be a big thing for her. I knew she didn't mean it. ... I think Tim [McGraw] was sitting at home watching, and as soon as she did that, I think he called her and was like, 'This is gonna be bad.' So she called me immediately and said, 'It's no big deal. I'm so sorry. I was just messing around, and it was sort of a joke gone bad, and I would never disrespect you.'
"And she's always been so nice. She and Tim have always been really sweet to me. ... I had no reason not to believe her. And I said, 'Thank you. It means a lot to me that you called, and I really, really respect you for calling as soon as possible to make things right, but I'm sorry for whatever's about to happen.'"
During the awards show, Underwood was unaware of Hill's joke.
"Obviously, I was sitting in the audience," she said. "I didn't see what happened -- like everybody did at home -- so I did go to look it up afterwards just to see exactly what happened. ... I would've thought she was joking, but I guess I could see where people like my fans ... who were really protective of me, which is really awesome ... would think she was being disrespectful. ... I just felt really bad for her that she was just messing around back stage and it kind of got taken out of context."
When asked if detractors have tried to make her feel as though her massive success has arrived too quickly, Underwood smiled and explained the intensity involved in participating on American Idol.
"That's a whole other kind of dues, you know?" she said. "And that's a whole other kind of stress. You know, I'll be the first person to say I don't deserve [to be] where I am. I am so, so lucky to be where I am, and I'm so thankful every single day that all this wonderful stuff has happened to me, but I definitely went through a different kind of 'dues-paying' portion of my life -- and that was called American Idol."
Describing her American Idol experience as "absolutely the most stressful, intense time in my life," she adds, "but also it was absolutely wonderful, and it landed me where I am here now. [It was] so completely worth it, but people have their opinions. And if that's the way they feel about it, that's fine, but I'm really glad I'm here.
"It is really stressful going from nobody really paying attention to you to all of the sudden millions of people out there. Not only are they listening to you sing and critiquing you, you've got to stand up there in front of the judges, and they could potentially say something completely embarrassing. All your friends are watching. All your family is watching back home. Nobody has to deal with that kind of scrutiny. And, also, people are looking at what you're wearing, what you look like and things like that. ... It's kind of hard to just be thrown into that kind of criticism."
Excellent interview razor...she truly does have great class and can handle herself very well!
Reality is the beginning...not the end....Wallace Stevens
Would someone like to tell me about Lee Ann Rimes? Did she say something nasty about our Carrie? I need details! lol
After Carrie won Female vocalist & during all the Faith Hill extravaganza, LeAnn posted a note on her fansite defending Faith & stating that Carrie shouldn't have won Best Vocalist because she just hadn't paid her dues yet. Now this was from someone that had won similiar awards when she was only 13. Needless to say it didn't sit to well with many, & was removed from her website in about an hr..But, it was picked up by Entertainment Weekly & many other news services & was brought to national attention.Originally Posted by roses4me;2173443;
Thanks Razor! Leann sounds a tad hypocritical. You're right, she did break into the biz when she was just 13. Good grief. LeAnn needs to be more careful with her words.
I watched the Patsy Cline movie the other night and was wondering if Carrie could pull off a dramatic role. I still would like to see her in Oklahoma or something similar.
Today is the day Carrie is on Oprah. Don't miss it. Tony Bennett, Josh Groban, Michael Buble & Carrie, the show is all about what is on your Ipod. The artisits sing their most downloaded songs & evidently there are some really nice duets as well.
I guess this makes it official, but due to Security purposes they won't announce specific sights or dates.
CMA Female Vocalist of the Year Carrie Underwood to Visit Troops on USO Tour to Persian Gulf
To: National Desk, Entertainment Reporter
Contact: Reggie Borges of USO, 703-908-6471, or email@example.com
ARLINGTON, Va., Dec. 11 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Country music superstar and 2005 "American Idol" winner Carrie Underwood will soon embark on her first USO tour to the Persian Gulf region. Underwood, who recently received the Country Music Association's "Female Vocalist of the Year" award and "Horizon" award, will perform and meet with service members.
After becoming the 2005 "American Idol" winner in the show's fourth season, Underwood's career has skyrocketed. Her debut album, "Some Hearts," was certified quadruple platinum and is the fastest-selling debut female country album since the introduction of the Nielsen SoundScan in 1991. "Some Hearts" will close 2006 as the best-selling country album of the year. In addition, all three singles from the CD have hit the top spot on the country music singles chart: "Jesus, Take the Wheel," "Don't Forget to Remember Me" and recent five-week No. 1 "Before He Cheats." Underwood is the only solo female artist to top the country chart in 2006 and also leads as the artist with the most cumulative weeks at No. 1 on the R&R country chart so far this year.
Since the release of her debut album, the Checotah, Okla., native has received numerous awards this year, including "Breakthrough Artist" at the American Music Awards, the "Top New Female Vocalist" and "Single of the Year" awards from the Academy of Country Music, two CMT Music Awards and many more.
This tour continues the USO tradition of bringing celebrities to visit troops during the holiday season. Celebrities who recently participated in USO tours include Chuck Norris, Drowning Pool, Bill Engvall, Craig Ferguson, Kathy Kinney and Shinedown.
USO tours are sponsored by AT&T Inc., the official telecommunications sponsor of USO entertainment tours.

Inglot Matte 421 Lipstick Review and Product Swatches
Written by Elessa, Posted in Blog, Brand, Featured, Inglot, Product Review, Swatches
Inglot is well known for their amazing shadows but there is so much more from Inglot that is amazing. First, lets talk Matte Lipsticks!!
#421 is a great berry color perfect for Fall and anytime before and after. It glides on smoothy and leaves your lips ready for gloss or just go as is.
Price: $12
Available: At Inglot Stores or call
- Sleek packaging. I love the rounded square packaging.
- Color is pigmented and looks great all on skin tones.
- Super matte but not drying. If you like matte this is a great option.
- Rich berry full of color and really opaque
- Doesn't fade or bleed if you are careful. Wear a lip liner to shape the lips.
- Hard to find, sold out the first day. Hopefully it is back in stock.
- Has the typical matte texture so it may appear dry to you
- Gotta call in to order, can't order this online.
Overall: I like the texture and color payoff. It will stain the lips to a berry pink throughout the day. Typical wear off with straws and eating. Just blot and dab over tissue for best results. I would definitely recommend this to the berry lovers.
Website is slow to load up colors, so be patient and you will see their color options. You gotta call in to order this Fall shade.
Click for more photos. Remember to comment or tell me what you think if you already have an Inglot Matte Lipstick.
Product provided for review consideration.

Oslo's ARD*POP-UP FestivalDecember 4th, 2012 | By RJ Rushmore | No Comments »
The ARD*POP-UP Festival took place in Oslo this November and was the first iteration of this festival, although the organizers hope to move it from city to city in the coming years. This year, the festival brought Pez, Kenor, Phlegm, and others to the streets of Oslo for some really fun murals, although it does look like they were concentrated in a pretty small area. Here are a few of my favorites:

Simo Sorce wrote:Ulrich, some people claim that glibc's getaddrinfo breaks IPv4 DNS round robin as it reorders also IPv4 address, can you comment on this? In some cases it is important.It is not necessary (and quite wrong) to implement RR in the server. It's an approximation at best anyway. In no way better than randomization. And nothing stops programs from randomizing the results returned by getaddrinfo before using them. Normal programs won't do that but there is nothing which stops programs like ntpd from doing this.
A client has no possible way to know what the "best" choice from a list of RR DNS IP's might be, whereas server products like F5's 3DNS/global load balancer monitor server load/availability and and an assortment of other things to offer the best choice. I don't know if any of these products send an ordered list in the preferred choice, but things would be more robust if they did and the client walked the list in the presented order. If the server must send only one IP to control the client's choice, it causes a problem when circumstances change during the client application's run time. Many clients (particularly IE - the most popular one..) will cache the list given in the initial lookup and on subsequent failure will retry others from that list but will not do another DNS lookup as part of the error recovery. Thus if they have been given a preferred and backup IP in the first lookup, they'll keep working even if the preferred server becomes unreachable. But, if they resort the list, half of them will pick the wrong first choice even when it is reachable.

Hello you. Yes you, thanks for stopping by. Because we can't be there to introduce ourselves in person, we've put together a few words of who we are so you can get to know us a little better. Think of it as a virtual handshake, a kiss on each cheek, or a nose rub, depending on where you're from. Let's start at the very beginning…
It all started with a thought. We wanted everyone to be able to enjoy the experience of making. Whether it was a cat dressed as an astronaut or a mechanical masterpiece. We set it as our goal to enable you to make those things. So we built a pioneering device that everyone could use and enjoy. We made it open source so everyone really could pitch in. And we started to grow.
We tinkered, tweaked, invented, innovated and reinvented. And so did our community. Together we evolved and enjoyed each other's support as we went. And we grew some more. We followed our hearts, our instincts and our friends. We collaborated and shared over and over and over again. And still we grew.
And today? Well, we're in multiple countries across the globe with thousands of friends in our community. Turning bits into atoms from their classroom, lab, office, home, in fact wherever they hang their hats. And together we'll keep on growing. One layer at a time.
After all, we're just ordinary people with extraordinary plans. When it comes down to it, evolution is in our blood. We're always running to the future and making the unbelievable, believable. And just like our community of tenacious tinkerers, we love to try new ideas and see what works. In fact, they often conceive wonders we could never have imagined on our own. Together we make one hell of a team.

Clinical and research interests: Motion management in radiotherapy; 4D treatment planning; 4D-MRI; Stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy; Kilovoltage radiation dosimetry
Title: Assistant Professor of Medical Physics
Schools\degrees: Wittenberg University, Springfield, OH\BA, Physics, 1996; Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI\ PhD, Nuclear Physics, 2001; ABR certified, Therapeutic Radiotherapy Physics
Training: Centre Nationale de la Recherche Scientifique, Institute de Physique Nucléaire d'Orsay. Orsay, France\Post-Doctoral Fellowship, Nuclear Physics, 2002-2004; Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Department of Radiation Oncology and Molecular Radiation Sciences, Baltimore MD\Post-Doctoral Fellowship, Medical Physics, 2004-2006)
Research summary: I was educated and trained as an experimental nuclear physicist at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) at Michigan State University. My Ph.D. thesis involved the elucidation of a theorized collective dipole excitation in an exotic isotope of oxygen, 20O. Following my time at MSU, I completed a two-year post-doctoral fellowship at the Institut de Physique Nucléaire (IPN) d'Orsay (France) where I conducted further research probing the resonant structure of the 9He via the (d,p) reaction with a 8He beam at the Grand Accélérateur National d'Ions Lourds (GANIL) facility in France.
During my fellowship training as a medical physicist at Johns Hopkins, I contributed to a highly successful, NIH-supported effort to build a novel, image-guided small-animal irradiator (SARRP; PI: J. Wong). The principle aim of this project was to bridge the technological gap that exists between the cruder radiation techniques used in the pre-clinical setting and modern clinical radiotherapy. My main area of focus related to this project was and continues to be kilovoltage radiation dosimetry. I devised a system for dosimetric commissioning and validation using both Monte Carlo and measurement and, consequently, developed expertise in "micro" radiochromic film dosimetry. I currently employ this expertise to commission new small animal irradiators and support novel kilovoltage treatment planning initiatives ongoing at Johns Hopkins and elsewhere.
Also as a fellow, I played a leadership role in developing and implementing our program for breath-held radiotherapy delivery (using the Active Breathing Coordinator Device, Elekta Ltd.). This experience helped to foster a broader interest in respiratory motion. I have since begun a translational research program to incorporate deformable image registration into "4D" treatment planning with the aim of sparing normal tissue from unnecessary radiation exposure during passively-delivered, free breathing radiotherapy treatments. Limitations of conventional 4D imaging ("4D-CT") in this context provided a strong impetus for my most recent translational research project to develop dynamic magnetic resonance imaging techniques for use for radiotherapy planning and guidance.
Clinically, I play a leadership role in the quality assurance of our image-guided linear accelerators and stereotactic procedures. In particular, I have been instrumental in designing our treatment protocols for image-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy. For example, I played a strong role in the design of the image-guided therapy portion of a multi-institutional trial to evaluate the efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy in pancreatic patients, which is currently enrolling patients at Johns Hopkins, Stanford, and Memorial Sloan Kettering.
