Over the weekend I found out a friend just had her 2nd, named the baby Charlotte Mae,big sister is Natalie Marie. Nothing too exciting there imho but the names are similar and make a good sibling set.
Another friend also announced they are calling their dd Kaya Rose, its their first and she is due in September.
In the child watch area at the Y there was another Zeke (short of Isaiah the dad said?) which was cool since Zeke (just Zeke) is my nephews name. Another name there that stuck out was a little girl who was 4-5ish named Uma. Dh's cousin and I are FB friends and she was posting pics from her sons last day of school and mentioned the names of his friends...2 of the boys (they are just leaving 3rd grade) were Iron and Hank which stuck out for me...especially Iron. Not sure how I feel about that one....but Hank is a great nn, I want to find out if its short for Henry (I assume it is) without being stalkerish about it.Married to my love since August 2001
My much loved, well thought out, chosen for meaning named crew:
Sebastian Elihu (7/02)
Bronwen Eliza (2/04)
Linus Ezra Graham (9/06)
Violet Leona (1/09)
and one named with help of nameberry, Wolfgang Levi (3/13)!

When I began thinking about the poem that has become The King and the Robin, I read a certain amount about Edward the Confessorand realized that we know precious little about him. As a living, breathing man, that is. What we do have, though, are a number of contemporary or near-contemporary accounts of the miraculous good deeds that he was able to performhealing the blind, for instance. This lack of precise information, combined with the suggestiveness of the healing stories, pushed me in the direction of thinking I might write something which had the feel (roughly) of a medieval lyric: the kind of poem which uses stock images and ideas (orchards, mysterious encounters and so on), and draws on their accumulated associations while adding its own emphases.
I hope The King and the Robin might have this kind of combination. Im not aware of a story in which we see the king meeting such a bird, but their encounter here triggers a little debate which I hope his chroniclers would recognize as being essentially true. A debate, that is to say, about the relative merits of action and artand about our continuing need to combine them. As the idea developed, I tried to move between an up-front kind of language and a more ornamental onepartly to reflect the argument of the poem in its sounds, and partly to give the composer some variety to work with
The composer Philip Moore, director of music at York Minster since 1983, has responded imaginatively to the rich imagery and texture of the poem. Much of his melodic and harmonic material is derived from the first three bars of the piece and Moore takes every opportunity for word-painting and characterization; most obviously, perhaps, the King is depicted by a baritone soloist and the mythical figure of the Robin by a solo treble. The final two lines of the text, in which the two protagonists agree that both action and art are equally valuable and combine to make a thousand years of praise, are brilliantly set in an exciting fugue that builds up to a blazing conclusion.

PASADENA - Former longtime UCLA football coach Terry Donahue will have the Rose Bowl press box named after him. The venue is in the middle of a three-year renovation, and the new press box will be called the Terry Donahue Pavilion.
Donahue was 151-74-8 at UCLA from 1976-95. The honor is appropriate in so many ways. Donahue is the most successful football coach in Bruins history and he was media-friendly.
"For the first time in my life, I was speechless," Donahue said.
"It is almost overwhelming because we never envisioned having the pavilion with my name on it. That was never even a consideration for us. To have that is really hard to put into words."
Added Mora: "There couldn't be anybody that's more worthy. It reminds everybody coming into this place that this is UCLA's home."

Yuri Kozyrev's iconic image of the Libyan conflict went through the hands of the post-processing lab 10b before it was published to critical acclaim by Time magazine, due, in part, to its tones colours and contrast. Images © Yuri Kozyrev / Noor for Time.
10b Photography has established itself as one of the world's leading digital darkrooms, handling post-production for scores of award-winning photojournalists who trust that the company knows where to draw the line between processing and manipulation. Olivier Laurent meets the founders.
Author: Olivier Laurent
20 Dec 2011 Tags: PhotojournalismAdobe photoshopNoor
When Yuri Kozyrev was covering the Arab Spring, working in Bahrain, Egypt, Libya and Yemen for Time, instead of wiring his images direct to the magazine in New York, he sent them first to Claudio Palmisano in Rome, who would process them according to the photographer's specifications, and then forward them to picture editor Patrick Witty. Palmisano is the co-founder of 10b Photography, which has been working with some of the biggest names in photojournalism for the past five years, including Paolo Pellegrin, Finbarr O'Reilly and Marcus Bleasdale, among many others. Their work has appeared in The New York Times, Newsweek and Russian Reporter, and they count among their clients the Nobel Peace Center, Saatchi & Saatchi, Magnum Photos, Noor and VII Photo.
Palmisano, who set up 10b with fellow photographer Francesco Zizola, explains the company's background. "It was 2006 and I had been working as a freelance digital photo editor [alongside photography assignments] for years," he tells BJP. "I had opened a little lab with a friend of mine, though we used to spend more time playing online games than post-producing images. In the meantime I had started toning images for some renowned photographers. I had worked with Paolo Pellegrin on the portfolio he submitted to Magnum Photos [to become a member], and I had also printed an exhibition by Francesco Zizola."
Zizola, who was looking for the right place to move his Rome-based studio - "I've never been able to leave my hometown," he says - came across "a real-estate bargain". Much bigger than what he was looking for at the time, his new studio was in need of an idea. "I thought it over for some time and I decided that it was worth my while, since it stirred my ambition to interpret the new cultural and technological possibilities arising in the field of photography, especially editorial photography." That's when 10b was born. "I thought of it as a laboratory where new technological, but also ethical and cultural, challenges posed by documentary photography could be experienced and tested," he explains. "I had in mind the same kind of photography that struck me when I was 10; a language capable of increasing people's awareness, but that could also withstand the contemporary debate, questioning the meaning of historical events and denying memory. An ambitious cultural endeavour."
Zizola was 10 years old when he was first struck by the power of photography. "I had asked my father what 'genocide' meant and he showed me a black-and-white photograph from a book portraying what the Allied Forces found when they entered a Nazi concentration camp - a mass grave full of skeletal corpses. That picture spoke about the horror of war and the folly of human conflicts better than a thousand words," he remembers. "From that day on, photography - and its power to pierce the soul and mind, by means of the reality it portrays - has always been by my side."
To launch 10b, Zizola needed help. "I was aware of the state of the art of photography," he says, "and I knew something about the mounting debate around digital photography and the technological transformations photography in general was going through. At the time, Claudio [Palmisano] was the only one I knew who could conceive digital photography along the lines of traditional photojournalism, and not just within the narrow limits of a technological innovation."
Palmisano first started his career as a computer programmer. "I was interested in the computer's potential as a means of communication," he says. "But one day I was hired by the Italian newspaper, Paese Sera, to build a digital network for its staff photographers." That's when he had a eureka moment. "I realised that images, photographs in particular, could be an even more efficient means of communication, and I became a staff photographer for the newspaper. I was an IT expert, passionate about communication, and a photographer. My encounter with Photoshop was fated."
So, when Zizola approached him, Palmisano didn't think twice. "He wanted me to be his partner in this enterprise; to be in charge of the digital laboratory. I accepted."
10b is a digital darkroom and, for all intents and purposes, works similarly to an old-fashioned darkroom. "The recent introduction of the raw shooting format has enabled digital photography to share a very similar workflow than with analogue photography," says 10b on its website. "Just like a negative, a raw file cannot be printed the way it is and needs to be 'developed' first. Contrast, saturation and hue, for example, have to be set during the editing process. This step takes the name of 'raw conversion' and, with the exception of chemicals, it resembles the developing process of a film."
Before and after. "Toning is harder when the before and after images are quite similar," says Claudio Palmisano of 10b. "In these cases, toning is part of the creative flow, where details make the real difference." Images © Yuri Kozyrev / Noor for Time.
10b is quick to point out that it is not a retouching firm. The term is often associated with Photoshop experts, who are hired to alter the look and shape of fashion icons, for example. So when it comes to defining Palmisano's role, it can get tricky. Is he a "digital photo editor", a "Photoshop editor" or a "post-producer"? "Post-producer semantically belongs to the world of video-making and sounds a little too vague," says Valentina Tordoni of 10b.
"Since language tends to ratify a phenomenon that has ceased to evolve, and that eventually crystallises in the word itself that names it, it seems that this kind of profession is still in the process of seeking ratification from the Italian-speaking community."
Until the perfect term is found, Palmisano identifies himself as 10b's digital laboratory executive director, and this is how he works: "Photographers from all over the world upload their images to our dedicated file server," he explains. "Then I try to get in touch with them over Skype or by phone in order to discuss which style to apply to their images."
Of course, he says, working with a photographer for the first time can be difficult. "You need to tune in with them," he says. "We exchange a fair amount of emails, links to online contact sheets and previews with every new photographer. But once the tuning kicks in, the work gets a lot smoother."
In fact, Palmisano adds, "The relationship can grow so strong that we often send the enhanced images directly to the photographer's client, usually a magazine, and it has happened, in very special occasions, that the photographer hadn't had the time to check the final version before it was delivered." That was the case with some of Kozyrev's images in the early months of 2011 in the Middle East.
Palmisano has been working with Kozyrev for a few years now, and together they have tried out different stylistic interpretations of his work, "depending on the country where he was shooting from, the story he was covering and the historical context". He adds, "Clearly, technology has an impact on a photographer's style. Working on scanned slides is not the same as having raw files. The work on the Arab unrest was certainly influenced by poor and irregular access to satellite internet connection on Yuri's side and, as a consequence, by having to work on a large number of images within a short period of time on my side."
But, he explains, "A limit turned into an opportunity and I had an idea. Since I was working on JPEGs and not on raw files - too big for a satellite internet connection - I built up a complex pre-set action that would soften the sharp contrast typical of JPEG images and convey the first stylistic 'coat' at the same time. Then I would proceed as always, enhancing one photo at a time, looking for the subject, the proper 'mood', the 'punctum'," - the detail that creates a relationship between the viewer and the photograph's subject.
"I like the way he's doing it," says Kozyrev. "I'm amazed by Claudio's knowledge of Photoshop. What he did for me, I could never have done with my laptop, especially since, in most cases, I had no access to the internet or even electricity."
"Working with Yuri on these images was particularly exciting and challenging," says Palmisano. "He had very short and specific deadlines. Yuri would upload the image files to our server at night. With my laptop - no matter where I was - I would remotely connect to our file server and post-produce Yuri's photos. Then, always through a remote connection, I would upload the final image files to the Time file server for Patrick Witty.
"Once I was on a beach in Croatia. I also worked from several of my friends' houses in Rome, taking a break from dinner in order to work on Yuri's images via a wireless internet connection. I have also worked during my holiday in Linosa [a tiny Sicilian island south of Lampedusa, in the Mediterranean Sea], where I was always looking for the best GSM coverage riding on my rented quad bike. Sometimes it felt really weird, I would be in some beautiful place, maybe scubadiving 30 metres underwater in the blue silence of the sea depths, and five minutes later I would be engrossed by my work on Yuri's pictures from the Arab Spring, often concentrating on what would soon become icons of pain and death."
Kozyrev's images have won multiple awards in recent months, including a Visa d'Or, and the Noor photographer is a clear frontrunner in the February 2012 World Press Photo competition.
But is 10b engaging in digital manipulation of these photographers' images? The laboratory's founders don't think so. "We believe that talking of 'manipulation' is correct only when pixels are 'moved', therefore when the minimum unit of a digital image is at least either replaced or cloned," says 10b on its website. "In these cases we can talk of a mystification of reality, whose results not only represent something different from the original subject but have also broken the main rule of the photojournalism ethics."
Beyond the digital file
As with the advent of digital photography, 10b is embracing new trends in the world of photojournalism. "In recent years, 10b has broadened its areas of expertise," says Marco Baldovin, who joined the company after he attended a course on Photoediting held by Internazionale magazine at the LUISS Business School in Rome. "The gallery has become one of 10b's central features and is now one of the main venues for photography in Rome," he tells BJP.
"Thanks to the experience we have acquired by printing and producing several exhibitions for our own gallery, we are now also able to offer exhibition design services to our clients. We take care of the printing, mounting and shipping of the pictures, as well as of the graphic design for reference panels and advertising materials (such as flyers, banners and postcards)." In fact, at this year's Visa pour l'Image festival, 10b took over Kozyrev's exhibition - a rare feat. "The hardest part was to convince Jean-François Leroy," says Kozyrev of the festival's director.
But 10b has also opened its own multimedia studio to create interactive applications for smartphones and tablets devices, as well as to design entire websites for photojournalists. "There are at least three factors that, in recent years, have laid the foundations for a significant change in the way photography is distributed and enjoyed by its audience," says Baldovin. "I am talking about the crisis in the publishing industry, the spread of smartphones and tablet devices, and the constant growth of the internet, which is slowly subtracting room from paper-based publications and television broadcasts."
These factors, he adds, are encouraging photographers to rethink the way they tell their stories and portray their subjects. "I think that we haven't fully tested the potential of new technologies and that what we have seen so far was borrowed from traditional media-based formats, in most cases. However, there has been an increasing demand for motion, professional photography website designs and iPad magazines in the past two years. The industry is changing." And this is the challenge that 10b aims to meet.

10b Photography recently opened a gallery in Rome, from where it hosts exhibitions, workshops and other cultural events. "The gallery is a constant source of challenge for us," says co-founder Francesco Zizola. "Each exhibition is intended as food for thought for our visitors, but also as a statement, which ought to be interpreted in the context of current events and of the international debate around photography."
In the past couple of years, 10b has exhibited photographers such as Martin Parr, Paolo Pellegrin, Andrew Testa, Frank Horvat, Félix Nadar, Yuri Kozyrev, Alexandra Boulat, Eugene Richards and Stefanor de Luigi. It has also shown Noor's Consequcnes and Solutions group projects. Zizola is a Noor photographer.
"We're also running an educational programme, with workshops, lectures and meetings with renowned authors," he says. "We want to offer a chance for young photographers to meet with professionals with established careers in photojournalism, something that is quite rare in Rome."
The 10b gallery is located at Via San Lorenzo da Brindisi, 10b, in Rome.
It is a slippery slope to adjust images for news purposes unless you are okay with the constant complaint of media bias.
i do not see any problem with these images . The truth of them has not been altered in any way. you could argue by making them more appealing to the eye they will gain a bigger audience therefore he is doing his job by spreading the news!
W. Eugene Smith(arguably one of the greatest photographic journalist of the 20th century) used to spend days in the darkroom prefecting a print,then he would make a copy neg of the final one then always work from that copy neg.
Henri Cartier-Bresson never printed his own pictures. where do draw the line and who draws it? noting has been taken out of these pictures and nothing has been added they tell his truth as he saw it. with the help of good post work. to me its the same as printing b/w on grade 5 paper ! great pictures ,great photographer.
Call me old fashioned, but isn't this what good printers have always done...interpret the neg (or these days, file) for maximum impact within the technical capabilities of the medium to be used for its dissemination.
I have no ethical problem with what's been done to these images, but I do think they look far worse as a result. To my eye they look over-stylised. It's a look which is quite popular with some photojournalists but it really doesn't do it for me at all. The photos were great in the first place. I think some people need to lay off the dodge/burn tool - for me they've gone over the top in some of these (i'm thinking the 2nd and 4th image in particular)
As more and more photojournalists shoot Raw this is a very pertinent article. I have (almost) no problem with the treatment of the images here, nothing is added or taken away; the blind man's eyes are emphasised and the image is editorially stronger as a result. The truth is that when we shot B&W we spent hours in the darkroom to get the best possible prints and we all had our individual styles. There is no reason why the same should not hold true in colour - as long as that "style" is not pushed so far as to be a real distortion of the original scene. My tiny reservation is about the grey smoke being so blackened, it looks a bit unreal as a result.. Finally I think it would be really useful to have an international code of ethics covering what is or is not acceptable for digital treatment of photojournalism..I think ironically this would give photojournalists more creative freedom once the boundaries were agreed..
I'm not entirely convinced by this companies great skills. Apart from the first image which appears to be skillfully done all the others look like a simple click on the auto curves button! As usual the images and their subjects gain on clarity but lose on atmosphere and photographic texture. Sometimes its more interesting for areas in the photograph to be obscure.
Was impressed though that Barthes 'punctum' was given a mention, though I think he would have rolled in his grave at the context - he would have refered to this as 'studium' surely?
Further to ciara's comment, to my eye, image #4 looks as though there is a slight halo around the main subject's head in the processed version, reminiscent of poorly-rendered HDR or careless use of Photoshop's Shadows & Highlights command.
I found it quite jarring - anyone else see it or is it just me?
Not sure what this is about...
I think this is an article about nothing! There were no limbs chopped off, or positions changed or perceptions altered. The printers art is alive and well and we can all do the alterations here without difficulty.
Next topic please...
I would be perfectly happy with the level of processing here. As other commenters have said, nothing added nothing removed. And I've seen that halo effect often in old black and white photos where the background or sky has been burned in. It happens in my own photographs.
I doubt they're using auto functions in photoshop personally. The retouching is done to too high a standard for that.
They do make the images look a bit like fashion images - high contrast, desaturated skin etc.
Personally i think they know what they are doing.
Ethically fine, but questionable result
I see nothing here of questionable journalistic ethics, but the post-processing itself is overdone, if not badly done.
For instance, I'd say there's a haloing effect on the first image, between the foreground and the sky. Generally just oversharpened and contrast-boosted.
Which is too bad, because it looks like the basic file just needs a little boost in the blacks in ACR or LR3 to have a strong, punchy image.
Most of the correction is pretty understated - a bit more contrast, less saturation, lightening faces...
Except for the photo on p63 - not shown online - of evening prayer in Tahrir square, which has had all of the warmth taken out and lost focus on the woman centre left .
Its here in a Time slideshow (it looks a bit darker online):
As someone who started in B&W documentary and now resides in broadcast advertising, it's a line thinner than a layer of emulsion between routine and "focusing adjustment" and what's going on here. Editorial now needs a "look" to be good? We're nearing "music video telecine" type adjustments in some of these examples, in their secondary colors plain as day, which isn't needed by any of these images. Sign of the times? Just sad times if that's the case.
Whether you like any particular look or not, this is no different than photographers or their printers have always done. Just because you couldn't do much with a 'chrome after the fact is no reason not to try to optimize your image as best you can.
The idea that you can't dodge or burn or adjust contrast is just absurd!
These edits look like what i do on a daily basis using lightroom for 5 minutes per image.
Contrast reduction
Blacks increased
Saturation dropped
Clarity set to max
Seriously a lab is not needed for edits like this unless you have no time in your work flow to accommodate them.
And another thing, all images are representation's know matter how their treated, so what does it matter how their edited?
If you call this world's best - God save the customers
To devote an article and hype it by saying that it is worlds leading post production unit would be a fallacy here.
The quality of work is quite unsatisfactory and the sort that any stumbling neophyte on Photoshop can handle in 3 days time.
Seems more like a media exercise for unsuspecting new business.

Watching the twists and turns of American foreign policy while reading Christopher Clark's "The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914" is an unnerving experience.
In 1970 the eccentric but insightful economist Albert Hirschman published a book called "Exit, Voice and Loyalty." It explored how people respond when a private firm's or a government agency's performance is deteriorating.
Not many foreign policy experts would argue with the proposition that the country with which the United States has the most problematic relationship is Pakistan.
How is it possible that Barack Obama did not know that his beloved healthcare.gov website was a botch? That's a question many thoughtful people (including thoughtful Democrats) are asking.
Are Republican politicians trying to frame a policy agenda stuck in a Reagan rut? A good case can be made that they are -- or have been.
The defects of the Obamacare website have become well known. But the problems with the law go further than the website. These problems are not incidental, but central to its design and the intentions of its architects.
"The Affordable Care Act's political position has deteriorated dramatically over the last week." That, coming from longtime Obamacare cheerleader and Washington Post blogger Ezra Klein, was pretty strong language. And it was only Wednesday.
Colorado, writes National Journal's always insightful Ronald Brownstein, is "America, writ small." "A microcosm," he goes on, "of the forces destabilizing American politics."
When American politicians get around to reforming their immigration laws, they tend to look backwards. They seek to address immigration problems in the past rather than look ahead and set policy that will strengthen the nation in the future.
In an August Washington Examiner column, I argued that this year's governor elections in New Jersey and Virginia would have little precedential significance, unlike some other off-year elections in those states.
Capitalism, said economist Joseph Schumpeter seven decades ago, is a process of creative destruction. New inventions, new processes, new methods of organization lead to the creation of new profitable and efficient businesses and to the destruction of old ones unable to compete.
Where are Americans moving, and why? Timothy Noah, writing in the Washington Monthly, professes to be puzzled. He points out that people have been moving out of states with high per capita incomes -- Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts, Maryland -- to states with lower income levels.
"The examination of war from an exclusively military perspective, isolated from its social and political context, leads to false conclusions and poor strategy."
Sherlock Holmes famously solved a mystery by noticing the dog that did not bark. In the recent government shutdown/debt ceiling fight, there was a five-letter dog that didn't bark: T-A-X-E-S.
It's not just Republicans who are unhappy with Obamacare. Labor union leaders have been complaining too.
Amid all the tussling over the government shutdown and the debt ceiling, a couple of bombshells went off in the blogosphere that may prove of more enduring importance.
Some bad news for America, not on the political front this time, but on what corporate executives call human resources.
What to make of all the polls on the government shutdown? You know, the ones that say that, to varying degrees, congressional Republicans are being blamed more than Democrats and Barack Obama.
"This book is far from all good news." So writes Tyler Cowen at the beginning of his latest book, "Average is Over: Powering America Beyond the Age of The Great Stagnation."
The problem was caused by James Madison. And by the 39 other men who signed the Constitution in 1787.

By Amanda Haller, B.S. Holidays are a wonderful time of celebration that includes food, family and friends. Holidays may also bring more cooks into the kitchen — and maybe a greater chance for unsafe handling of food to occur.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that each year up to 76 million people are affected by food-borne illnesses. The symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain or even fevers. One cause of these illnesses is germs and bacteria that are spread when food is not safely handled. You can help prevent food-borne illnesses at home by making sure that all the cooks in your kitchen, including yourself, follow these food safety tips. 1. Keep it clean. Wash your hands often when preparing foods. It may sound silly, but there is a proper way to wash your hands. Wash hands thoroughly with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds, or the same amount of time it takes to sing Happy Birthday twice. Dry your hands with a paper towel or a clean dish towel. Wash your hands often while preparing food, especially after handing any type of raw meat, after touching the garbage and after using the bathroom. 2. Thaw it smartly. The safest way to thaw your holiday turkey or ham is in the refrigerator. Put it on a plate on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. This will prevent juices from driping onto other foods. Allow about 1 day of thawing for every 4 to 5 pounds of turkey or ham. Here are some tips if you're running short on time.
You can also avoid spreading harmful bacteria by starting with a clean kitchen and utensils. Use a separate cutting board and utensils for raw meat. Never use the same cutting board or utensils on other foods that was used for raw meat. This could spread bacteria and cause food-borne illness such as salmonella. Also, be sure to clean countertops often, especially after handling raw meats. 3. Cook it thoroughly. Undercooked meat may contain harmful bacteria that can cause food-borne illness. Make a meat thermometer your new best friend in the kitchen. Use it to ensure that you cook food thoroughly. Pop-up thermometers that are inserted into some turkeys don't accurately measure temperature, so it is difficult to know when the turkey is thoroughly cooked. Place a meat thermometer into the innerrmost part of the turkey thigh, or into the thickest part of the ham or roast and follow these guidelines:
Also, be sure to boil gravy before serving to kill harmful bacteria. 4. Refrigerate promptly. Holiday parties can last for hours and food is often left out until people leave. Bacteria rapidly multiply after more than 2 hours of sitting at room temperature, which can make food unsafe to eat. To prevent this from happening, refrigerate food within 2 hours of serving it. For longer parties, keep some fresh food in the refrigerator to serve at intervals during the party. A word about uncooked cookie or cake batter. Because it contains raw eggs that may be contaminated with salmonella bacteria, don't let people dip into it. Salmonella can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain, which are enough to ruin anyone's holiday. 5. Store it properly. It is a common mistake to let cooked food cool to room temperature before storing it in the refrigerator. Instead, use the same 2-hour rule as above and place cooked food in the refrigerator within 2 hours of cooking. Proper storage containers should be less than 2 inches deep and airtight. Deep storage containers allow the middle to remain warmer for longer, which could let bacteria growth. Here are some additional tips.
Be sure to use your delicious leftovers soon after the holiday.
If you are ever in doubt if your leftovers are still fresh, throw them out! Don't let harmful bacteria ruin your holiday fun this year. Simply keep these tips in mind when preparing, cooking, serving and storing food to have a happy, safe holiday! Amanda Haller completed her B.S. in nutrition and dietetics at Simmons College, Boston. She is currently a dietetic intern at Brigham and Women's Hospital.

Airport bosses could still bid for Government funding (From The Northern Echo)
For details on how to contact our editorial and commercial departments, click here
Durham Tees Valley Airport says masterplan could provide platform for Regional Growth Fund bid
6:00am Tuesday 8th October 2013 in News By Steven Hugill
AN ambitious masterplan to galvanise a North-East airport could provide the platform for a fresh cash bid to develop the site, The Northern Echo can reveal.
Bosses at Durham Tees Valley Airport (DTVA) say they haven't ruled out making another funding application after unveiling proposals to offset loss-making passenger operations with an expanded business hub.
Earlier this year, ministers snubbed £4.65m plans to create an aircraft recycling, firefighter training and freight services zone on land south of the runway, which DTVA said could have supported 1,400 jobs.
It was was the second time in less than a year the airport's parent company Peel Group had failed to secure Government Regional Growth Fund (RGF) money.
However, Peter Nears, Peel's strategic planning director, says they are still open to all funding options, which he believes would become more attainable if supported by a strong masterplan and business development.
The airport's hangars already house global aerospace and defence firm Cobham and Sycamore Aviation, which dismantles aircraft and recovers high-value parts for clients across the world, with Serco's International Training Centre also based on the site.
He said: "The RGF was a particular disappointment because we felt we had a strong bid.
"That is why we are working on this masterplan, it will put into context what we are doing and allow people to understand our aims.
"We are cautious about going for RGF again but if we get this plan in place and it goes down well, then it could be something to think about.
"These plans can take the airport forward, some will look and say it isn't being conscientious, but our eye is firmly on the ball.
"As the economy begins to come back, we can move forward by maximising the opportunities that are there for us."
Bosses from Serco and Cobham previously told The Northern Echo they remain committed to the airport, which Mr Nears says is proof of the site's eminence.
He said: "It is important that we attract more companies like those.
"They obviously see the airport as a place where they can operate and everything we are doing is for the benefit of this airport."
Cobham - The aerospace company employs about 90 workers at the airport, and maintains air traffic and navigation systems for Heathrow Airport and Falkland Islands' military airbases.
It operates Falcon 20s that provide air support to Ministry of Defence training and emulate a range of threats to warships and aircraft.
A spokesman told The Northern Echo: "We have no plans to leave the airport because we see it as the base of our Northern operations for the foreseeable future."
Serco - The firm operates its International Fire Training Centre at the airport, which has been based at the site since 1981.
In the last RGF bid, Serco partnered airport bosses on plans for the Southside development, that included a new £7.4m complex featuring training rigs, a virtual reality test centre, and accommodation for trainees.
In August, it confirmed it was staying at the airport, despite the RGF snub, and said it wanted to invest in its existing centre.
Sycamore Aviation - Operating from a hangar used by Lancaster Bomber crews in the Second World War, its team of engineers dismantle aircraft and recover spares off for clients around the world.
Founded by former Thomas Cook and Jet2 captain, Kevin O'Hare, it has already worked on Boeing 737s and Airbuses.
It wanted to move into a purpose-built hangar on land south of the runway to handle jumbo jets.
However, airport bosses say those plans could still come to fruition if their masterplan is successful.

For £2M, 12 jobs....... so if you get the idea, as many jobs as you want! In fact, it could be the biggest cafe in the UK - imagine how many people would want to travel to visit it and all the spin off jobs created (new roads etc). All we need is for the RGF to have the imagination!

new technologies in education
The iPad fosters interaction and creativity among the elderly
Two studies by the UOC show that use of the iPad takes it way beyond being a latest-generation technological tool. Among the uses of the Apple tablet, this research shows that it can help the elderly interact and foster their own creativity. It also provides support to police investigations.
The first project shows that the iPad can be extremely useful for the elderly with a reasonable level of health. Thanks to its relatively easy interface and the fact that it weighs very little, the iPad means that the elderly adapt quickly to using it. Easy access to the resources on this tablet and their applications develop social interrelations among the elderly and help foster creativity.
This project has helped the elderly lose their fear of new technologies in an age dominated by digitalisation. "The aim of this project is to bring people to technology and not the other way round," says Margarida Romero, one of the driving forces behind this research. "Very often, we have to 'train' people for technology, instead of considering that we should adapt technology to people." As well as Romero, Elena Barberà also took part in this project, both being members of the EDUS group (University and School Distance Learning) at the UOC's eLearn Center.
The project was carried out in Finland. However, we hope to develop this type of research into the elderly in Spain, and specifically Catalonia, over the coming years.
The second study shows that "due to its deeply-rooted nature and closed design", the iPad helps with gathering forensic information to aid police investigations and improve crime clear-up rates. The Apple tablet has a series of information detection features that distinguish it from other tablets by different brands.
Of these, the research's co-author, Luis Gómez, has highlighted the most standard points offered by the iPad operating system, such as cloud stored information (iCloud platform), the fact that the device can be located at any time (the Find My iPhone service) and wireless printing (Airprint service), which is one of the key relevant points to this research. Gómez also believes that "there are other products that offer similar features, but the differences in implementation make it necessary for each platform to be studied separately."
In relation to crime clear-up, there are proven instances where the iPad has been conclusive. "I have worked personally on cases of threats and blackmail where the devices that work with the iOS operating system have been the decisive element of proof," says Luis Gómez. "It's also easy to imagine the iPad as key in cases of information leaks," he added.This study was conducted by Joan Arnedo, researcher at the UOC's research institute, IN3, and Luis Gómez, UOC PhD student.
These two projects analyse and show empirically that the iPad can be used far beyond the confines of the technological uses of the digital age and that tablets, in this specific case the iPad, offer significant work and learning possibilities for different sectors of the population.

Une perspective socioculturelle de la créativité pour la conception des environnements éducatifs
Selon Gauntlett, nous sommes en train de passer d'une « culture du "assieds-toi et écoute" à une culture du "fais et agis" ». La perspective socioculturelle nous permet de repenser la façon dont les technologies devraient être utilisées par les gens, afin de leur permettre de trouver l'inspiration et de partager, d'améliorer, ou de transformer leurs productions pour obtenir de nouveaux produits.

Teaching Philosophy
My philosophy on teaching has been greatly influenced by my experience as a student as by my experience and training as a teacher. Throughout my academic career, I was fortunate to have been influenced by an array of exemplary teachers and mentors as well as a few less than ideal teachers; all have greatly impacted my teaching philosophy. My ultimate goal as a teacher, beyond teaching my students fundamental concepts in biology, is to assist them into becoming critical thinkers and independent learners.Research Interests
The transport of proteins, mRNA transcripts and organelles within a cell facilitates their localization to discreet cellular domains for specific cellular functions. Active transport systems are complex, highly coordinated and utilized in a diverse array of cellular activities including axonal transport, organelle movement, chromosome segregation and vesicle motion. This extensive range of action is indicative of the importance of cellular transport systems in the fundamental biology of the cell and foreshadows the consequences when they become perturbed in multicellular organisms. My current research interests aim to identify components of microtubule based transport systems in the cell.Publications

7-month-old girl dies in West Side apartment
A 7-month-old baby who was bundled in a snowsuit, wrapped in a blanket and lying in a carseat, was found dead Wednesday in a West Side apartment by a neighbor after the infant's older sister went next door to ask for food. The girl, identified by the Cook County medical examiner's office as Lamya Hampton,was discovered with her older sisters, ages two and six, at their apartment in the Lawndale neighborhood. No adults were home when the neighbor found the baby at about 3:37 p.m.

Britney Spears Puts Her Home Back On The Market
For at least the third time in the past year and a half since she bought the home, Britney Spears's six-bedroom home in the gated Summit community in the Beverly Hills post office area is back on the market. This time the faux Tuscan home is listed at $7.9 million, the highest we've seen it at (Spears bought for $6.75 million when it was on the market for $7.2 million). She picked up the home furniture and all so the listing pics aren't too much different from the ones back in 2006 (except for the addition of a kid's play area in the front yard. Rumor has it that she is headed to Calabasas where the paparazzi are a little less invasive. The property website is here.
UPDATE: Britney has reduced the price to $7.195 million.

IQAir VOC GCX Air Cleaner
Control harmful organic chemicals with the IQAir VOC GCX Air Cleaner (1FDUB0LGB). Specially configured to control volatile organic compounds (VOC) and solvents, the VOC GCX is engineered to provide maximum control of gaseous chemicals in a compact room air purifier. Just like a professional gas mask, GCX Series air cleaners rely on an interchangeable cartridge design for optimized gaseous pollutant control. And while molecular control is a particular strength of these systems, the GCX Series also offers excellent filtration efficiency for particles. The GCX Series also includes advanced anti-tampering features that prevent the unauthorized access to filters or disconnection of the system in public areas.
Compared to IQAir's GC Series, the GCX Series features nearly 75% more filtration media and as a result provides about 20% more airflow and longer filter service life. The VOC GCX works through a three-step filtration process with multiple cartridges. First, micro- and nano-particle filtration via a high-efficiency HEPA filter eliminates micro- and nano-particles such as allergens, smoke, bacteria and viruses. This thorough particle pre-filtration is essential for extending the life of the gas phase control media by preventing its pores from clogging with particulates. Next, GCX's cartridges provide specialized molecular control - with four cartridges that hold up to 17 pounds of granular and pellet-shaped gas phase control media. The cylindrical shape of these cartridges allows for optimum contact, which ensures high removal efficiencies. The cartridges' large surface area also enables high airflow rates. Finally, post-filter sleeves perform micro-charged filtration, which eliminates activated carbon and chemisorption abrasion particles through a statically charged fiber structure - leaving air clean and free of fine dust.
High-Capacity Particulate, Chemical, and Odor Control:
Specially configured to control volatile organic compounds (VOC) and solvents, the VOC GCX is engineered to provide maximum control of organic chemicals in a compact room air purifierMulti-Cartridge Configuration:
Just like a professional gas mask, GCX Series air cleaners rely on an interchangeable cartridge design for optimized gaseous pollutant control - providing both molecular control and excellent particle filtrationCertified Performance:
IQAir tests and certifies each and every air cleaner, certifying each individual VOC GCX unit for quality
The The IQAir VOC GCX Air Cleaner was designed for the control of many common organic pollutants including the following: benzene, butane, carbon tetrachloride, chlorine, chloroform, chloropicrin, cyclohexane, 1.1 dichloroethane, ethylene oxide, freon 11, indole, methyl chloride, methyl chloroform, methylene chloride, nitrobenzene, phosgene, pyridine, sulfuric acid, toluene, and xylene.
IQAir has partnered with the American Lung Association in an educational campaign designed to generate awareness and educate the public about effective measures to improve indoor air quality.Click here for more information
