Fully Integrated Smartphone Security
When it comes to security, Android smartphones from BlackBerry are ahead of all other Android smartphones.

BlackBerry sets the bar in incident response and patch management, and brings world-renowned security experts and testing to DTEK50. When it comes to protecting business-critical data and personal privacy BlackBerry will keep you safe and secure.
Hardware Root of Trust
Security was built into DTEK50 from the start, rather than layering on defenses after production. Its manufacturing process establishes a hardware root of trust, a proprietary technique that adds security keys to the processor on DTEK50 as it is built. Those keys are then used to track, verify, and provision each DTEK50, meaning that the authenticity and integrity of your device is guaranteed, as is the safety of the data it holds.
A Better Bootloader
When a user boots up their device, it's important that they're able to trust that only a BlackBerry signed OS can be loaded and it hasn't been tampered with since the last restart. That's where DTEK50 secure boot process comes in. Starting with the hardware Root of Trust, each stage of the secure boot chain must first verify that the next component is fully intact before proceeding.

If the iconic French photographer Guy Bourdin walked into the cathedral-like atmosphere created for this exhibition, he would surely cancel his death-wish to have all his works destroyed.
This magnificently theatrical design transforms 32 portraits, which he last saw as colour slides and in glossy fashion magazines and commercials, into vast prints.
In his lifetime, they were never exhibited. Located now inside a set resembling a Fellini-esque high-class brothel, the richly colourful images are like windows opening onto models lying on grassy meadows and silky beds, posing on French streets and beaches, and allowing Bourdin to zoom in on naked flesh and full red lips.
Close-ups of (beautiful and natural) breasts form a major theme and include a perplexing image of perfect flesh exposed between a pillow and blanket - as if ready for surgery.
Aged 23, Bourdin entered fashion photography in 1955 through French Vogue. In the Sixties and Seventies he transformed the genre through his narrative mysteries and risqué style of portraiture.
This selection suggests eroticism in the seeming post-orgasmic reveries but lacks the erotic conviction of, say, Helmut Newton.
But the distance of time certainly slackens contemporary criticisms of misogyny in our sexually saturated era.
Unlike Newton, Bourdin moved into advertising photography in the late Seventies and his campaign shoots for Louis Jordan shoes with the German model Nicholle Meyer are the exhibition's most visually exciting.
Shoes are bit-players to Meyer's provocative posing in hotpants and swimsuits, and Bourdin's incorporation of Polaroids of her inside the final images was a brilliant modernist touch.
A tantalising collection of lyrical period pieces that don't all survive the passage of time but still possess great charm. The overall impact is irresistible.
Until 4 July (020 76807 2080, www.thewappingproject.com).

Rutgers-Camden board names 2 to new joint panel [The Philadelphia Inquirer :: ]
(Philadelphia Inquirer (PA) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Feb. 22--CAMDEN -- A new governing body for Rutgers-Camden, in its first meeting Friday, took a series of quick administrative actions, including appointing two members to a board that has eminent domain power in the city.
Though it is still two gubernatorial appointments short, the board voted to fill positions on a joint panel with Rowan University that is expected to oversee the development of an "eds and meds" corridor in Camden.
"The [Rutgers] board wanted to get started, Rutgers wanted to get started, I wanted to get started. The joint board that's waiting for these two appointees, which we now have, they wanted to get started," Wendell Pritchett, Rutgers-Camden chancellor, said after the meeting. "Everybody just wanted to get started, and there wasn't anybody who said we should wait." Rowan made its appointments to the seven-member joint board in February 2013, naming Chad Bruner, administrator of Gloucester County, and Fred Graziano, executive vice president of TD Bank Financial Group.
Gov. Christie made his three nominations in October: Jack Collins, a former Assembly speaker; Louis S. Bezich, chief of staff to the president of Cooper University Hospital; and Michellene Davis, who had been chief policy counsel to Gov. Jon S. Corzine.
The Rutgers-Camden board Friday appointed two of its own -- Camden Mayor Dana L. Redd and Robert Mortensen, a retired Conrail executive -- to that joint board. It was unclear Friday how they had been selected.
As the meeting proceeded to the election of the two joint board members, Gerald C. Harvey, a lawyer who chairs Rutgers-Camden's new board and the Rutgers University board of governors, turned to Dudley Rivers, a financial executive at Johnson & Johnson and 1982 Rutgers alumnus. He asked: "Dudley, I understand you have agreed to step down from this nomination, is that correct? And would you be prepared to move another individual in your stead?" He was. He did not say why he had been initially named or why he had removed himself from the nomination.
"With that having been covered, I would like to ask Mr. Mortensen and Mayor Redd to please step out of the room," Harvey said.
Less than a minute and a half later, and with no discussion, Harvey announced: "Great, this is exciting, we now have elected our two representatives to the joint board of governors." A similarly quick decision had been made minutes earlier, when Harvey stepped out of the room to be elected unanimously as Rutgers-Camden board chair.
Anthony DePetris, an administrator at Camden's LEAP Academy University Charter School, which has a partnership with Rutgers-Camden, had stepped in to assume the chair: "Colleagues, if you look under Tab A in your booklet, you will see that there is a proposed slate of nominees for officers of the Rutgers University-Camden board of directors," he said.
After the meeting, Harvey said his nomination as chair and the nominations to the joint board had been prepared.
"Actually, it evolved from a series of one-on-one conversations; the directors-elect certainly felt that they could talk to each other, and . . . there emerged a consensus that I originally opposed, which was that I be the chair of the Camden board of directors," he said.
Redd and Mortensen were similarly chosen after a series of one-on-one conversations, Harvey said, which another board member confirmed.
"One-on-one conversations are not meetings. This was the first meeting," Harvey said.
Pritchett said he expected the joint board, its membership now complete, to meet for the first time by the end of the semester.
That board was granted eminent domain power in Camden by a bill sponsored by Senate President Stephen Sweeney (D., Gloucester) and signed into law last month by Christie.
"Every college has [eminent domain] but Rutgers," Sweeney said Friday. "That's not the first option; that's the last option." Christie, after signing the measure into law, seemed unaware of it when asked about it this month during a radio program.
"If a bill like that comes to my desk, I'll have to take a close look at it," he said. "I haven't heard anything at this point about eminent domain being given to a university -- I don't think that's the way it works." Christie has not commented further.
Redd said after the meeting that eminent domain could be used to help the city. "Responsible eminent domain usage is probably the best way to couch my thoughts," Redd said. "We certainly have to redevelop the city of Camden to not only increase the presence of the meds and the eds, but certainly to create mixed-income neighborhoods." firstname.lastname@example.com 856-779-3220 @elaijuh Inquirer staff writer Andrew Seidman contributed to this article.

Have you heard? The Disney Parks Blog announced back in November that a new MagicBand is headed to Walt Disney World as part of their continuing effort to innovate and personalize their guest's vacation experiences. They called it "MagicBand 2."
Read – Prisma: The FREE App You Need for Your Disney Vacation Photos
MagicBands are colorful, waterproof wristbands, which somewhat resemble a watch or bracelet, that you can quickly and easily touch in designated places. These secure all-in-one devices allow you to effortlessly engage plans and choices you've made for your WDW vacation using the My Disney Experience Mobile app. By touching your band to a sensor called a "touch point," you can redeem FastPass+ selections, enter parks, unlock your Disney Resort Hotel room door, connect Disney PhotoPass images to your account, and charge food and merchandise purchases to your room.
Guests receive MagicBands for free when they stay at a Disney Resort Hotel in Florida or you are a Walt Disney World Resort Passholder.
If you are staying off property and/or are not a Passholder, you will receive a card upon purchase of your park admission. You then have the option to purchase a MagicBand at Walt Disney World Resort theme parks, Disney Springs, or DisneyStore.com. At that point, imply link your park admission ticket using My Disney Experience and use your MagicBand to enter the parks.
As you can see from the screen shot, plain MagicBands currently sell for $12.99.
MB 2.0, which is my unofficial name for the new bands, will feature a new larger design for the middle of the band, which you can see in the pictures brought to you from our friends at Disney by the Numbers.com. The Parks Blog says this design will help make MagicBand 2 more versatile and customizable, while at the same time, they will still function like the current MagicBands.
Read: Disney Fan In Need of a Present? Shop Helzberg's Enchanted by Disney Jewelry Line
MB2 will have a "pop out" feature allowing the Mickey section to be used in multiple optional holders, similar to key fobs. The Mickey icon can be removed with a small screw driver, under adult supervision, and more information will be provided on that option later.
You will still be able to be able to link your MB 2.0 to My Disney Experience. Your band will continue to operate as your theme park ticket and Disney PhotoPass card, as well as function as the resort room key for Disney property guests. The band will still provide access to your FastPass+ selections.
For now, all your old MagicBands will continue to work as Disney transitions to the new MagicBand 2. That's good news for me, because being a creature of habit, I don't consider myself someone who transitions well. AND I just purchased a specialty MagicBand last summer for about. I am hoping to get some more use out of that gem for another year at least. Then I can wear it next to my FitBit as a fashion accessory and vacation reminder. I'm also a Disney hoarder, so no way can I throw that out…
During the transition from the original MagicBand to MagicBand 2, some merchandise locations will continue to offer original MagicBands for a short period of time, but eventually these will no longer be available to purchase.

When you are accepted into the Facilitator Certification Training, Speaking Circles International is committed to your success. This concentrated program works on the level of personal transformation while teaching you the skills and tools you will need to become a masterful Facilitator. Enrollment is limited, allowing for extensive personal attention for all trainees.
Upon completion of the Certification Training, you are qualified and licensed to offer Speaking Circles to the public for a fee, with a personal profile page on our worldwide Facilitator website. You'll also enjoy ongoing support from Speaking Circles International and the Facilitator community.
Costs: The program fee includes the following:
Please note that the training fee does not include meals or lodging.
Application: The process includes a written application as well as a phone interview. To download an application, see links above.
Preparation: You will be asked to read Be Heard Now! and the Speaker's Guide to Authentic Connection by Lee Glickstein, in addition to the course prerequisites.
Four-Day Intensive: 10am-6pm.
Day 1 of the training involves both the clarification of objectives and purpose for each participant and in-depth Speaking Circle experience designed to anchor and advance the essentials of Relational Presence. As a Facilitator it is important to be able to model authentic speaking, letting words flow from the heart, and allowing content to emerge naturally. The focus in the basic work is on presence, not performance.
On the 2nd, 3rd and 4th days participants learn the technical side of facilitating a Circle: how to introduce the work, give instructions to the group, use a camera, model and generate brief affirmative feedback, make interventions, and how to create and maintain safety for everyone in a group. Participants are coached as they lead their own practice Circles.
While this training program offers some marketing tips and materials, it does not provide in-depth marketing or small business development training. Marketing and business development coaching is available from Speaking Circles International for an additional fee.
Certification and Licensing: The 2nd phase of the training is the self-study and practice phase which lasts three months. After the four-day intensive, you will arrange and lead several no-fee Speaking Circles as a Facilitator-Trainee. Monthly conference calls provide a support forum for the training group, and trainees are expected to deepen their understanding of the work by continuing to participate in Circles, either via a professionally facilitated Circle or by creating a peer Circle. When you feel ready, you can submit up to two videos of your work facilitating Circles, to be reviewed and discussed during private coaching sessions with one of the trainers.
It is expected that the first video will be submitted within the timeframe of the three-month training, and in special circumstances this guideline can be extended up to six months without a new program of private coaching or retraining being needed.
Once you have passed the video review and receive your Certification, you will be able to sign a License Agreement with Speaking Circles International (SCI) which authorizes you as a Speaking Circle Facilitator for one year. The annual license fee includes a continuing education program to keep Facilitators informed in the latest developments of the work.
Facilitator Community: New Facilitators join a supportive community with many opportunities to share ideas, experiences and expertise. Benefits beyond your personal profile page on our website include participation in peer TeleCircles and on-site Facilitator Days, an online Facilitator Resource Center, a Facilitator LinkedIn forum, and significant discounts for Speaking Circles International workshops.
Certified Facilitators are now practicing in many different countries around the world. Not all Facilitators offer Speaking Circles to the public; some people integrate the basics of how to facilitate transformation into the work that they already do. We have coaches, consultants, professional speakers, bodyworkers, business leaders, psychologists, teachers, artists, lawyers, storytellers and more who apply this work to their particular fields of activity.

Reviews/Fashion; Lacroix's Sumptuous Dressing
By BERNADINE MORRIS,
Published: March 15, 1993
PARIS, March 14— Christian Lacroix received a standing ovation for his fall and winter fashion show here. It was the first of the European collections to be received so enthusiastically. The ready-to-wear clothes provided a dazzling display of inventive design that combined fabrics and textures brilliantly, exuded luxury and hinted at distant times and places.
The photographers who were clustered at the end of the runway shouted "ole!" as the first black brocade jacket and swirling sheer skirt appeared. Later, they yelled "basta!" (enough!, in Italian) as the show, with its 137 styles, extended far beyond normal limits and threatened their film supply.
With his endless fecundity, the designer blurred the line between ready-to-wear and haute couture, or made-to-order clothes, a division of labor that endlessly fascinates the French, who make both. The quality of the design certainly qualified as top-of-the-line fashion.
The shows here, which began on Friday, the day after the shows in Milan, Italy, ended, constitute the Super Bowl of fashion, except that there's a new game every day for a week. The major play takes place in tents pitched in the courtyard of the Louvre, but there are sandlot games all over town.
Mr. Lacroix drew top executives from major American stores, including Bloomingdale's, Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, I. Magnin and Barneys New York to the Louvre early on Sunday morning. They agreed they were seeing "rich lady"clothes; some seemed unworkable, but not one was banal. Special Evening Styles
The collection got off to a slow start with Spanish themes from the Camargue, the region in the south of France where bullfighting is a passion and where Mr. Lacroix was born. But it soon picked up steam with cheerful appliques on top of striped and plaid fabrics, an outpouring of colors that never seemed raucous and shapes that, say, combined skirt and pants in a single garment.
Shades of brown were strongly repesented in brocade, leather, velvet and other materials, binding together disparate fabrics and patterns. Mr. Lacroix has a painter's eye, which helps make even his boldest compositions satisfying to look at.
He held his audience rapt as his evening dresses appeared, in such disparate materials as sky-blue velvet, black lace with chiffon and blistered crepe embroidered with small mirrors. The clothes may suggest the romance of far-away places, but their main source is the outer regions of the designer's mind.
Karl Lagerfeld, fresh from last week's triumph with his Fendi fur collection in Milan, showed his collection for Chloe on Saturday. Another exponent of the romantic spirit in dress, he was in a frillier, fussier mood than Mr. Lacroix. He will have two other opportunities to reinterpret or even contradict his message when he shows his own collection tomorrow and the one he designs for Chanel on Thursday.
Cherubs cavorting on the backdrop of the stage continued the fanciful concept he developed in his Chloe show for spring six months ago. It was more enchanting then as sheer, light fabrics and trellis prints gave the clothes a delicate, breezy look. This time, the prints were abstractions used to brighten gray flannel coats, where they decorated collars and lapels and also formed the lining. The coats were graceful enough with their small waists and long, flaring skirts, but not riveting.
Near-ankle lengths worked well in knitted dresses with raised waistlines, accenting the lean look. Knitted outfits consisting of pullovers, cardigans, skirts that just covered the knees and stoles were shown in one color. In beige, green or coral, they had a casual sophistication that should elevate the status for knitted clothes this fall.
The evening dresses proved the star attraction for retailers. "They will sell like crazy," said Ellin Saltzman, the fashion director of Bergdorf Goodman. Vincent Knoll, the buyer for Saks, said, "Our customers will love them."
The best evening styles included a double dress in wool crepe, the wide off-the-shoulder neckline of the outer layer exposing the slip top of the dress underneath. This was among the simpler styles. More elaborate outfits layered embroidered tulle or lace coats with pleated edges over fragile sheer dresses.

In an attempt to get to the bottom of everything, the Doctor discovers that an old enemy of his has returned. The Cybermen are back, and this time, they've brought religion.

The Doctor is forced into desperate measures to track down the alien force behind the ghostly apparitions, find out who sent the distress call and explain the fact that although five people are supposed to be aboard, six life signs are registering

Don't get me wrong. http://www.findafuckbuddy.net/kamil/` bring a lot of benefits to the table. First and foremost, you get friends that you can fuck. Think about that for a second. You enjoy these friends. You go out and enjoy yourselves. You paint the town red, and at the end of the night, you knock boots. You fuck each other, make each other orgasm and it's a beautiful thing. But it's too easy to look at this concept and get stuck at this level. It's too easy to look at it from a purely physical level.
Sadly too many guys are essentially sexual pigs. Just like a pig is very hungry and just focuses on eating as much as possible, it's easy to look at sex the same way. It's all very self-serving and very shallow. Eventually you'll get hungry again. Eventually you become desensitized to the taste and it takes more sex for you to get your fill. It's a never ending process until you become a sex addict. It's bad news.
You need to look past the physicality. The truth is having adult friends in your life can be a very beautiful thing on many different levels. The level that I want you to focus on is the spiritual level. You have to understand that human beings are spiritual creatures. We look at the world and we're always looking for meaning. Some people are more profound and intelligent than others that is why the spiritual component is more apparent to them. However, even the most stupid person will still feel the consequences of a life that lacks meaning. They feel frustrated a lot of the times. They feel happy when bad things happen to other people. They feel unhappy when good things happen to other people. They feel that they can't get enough.
These are spiritual groupings. They are pointing you towards a central truth that is missing in your life. This is why sex is really important. You have to remember that philosophical and spiritual traditions since time immemorial have been talking about sex as some sort of gateway that connects you with the divine. It's a way the limited communing with the unlimited. It's a way for the imperfect to get a glimpse of the perfect.
The reason why this is the case is because when you achieve a certain level of orgasm all limitations melt away. I'm not just talking about feeling really good when you cum. I mean that is a good thing, but scientists know that the typical orgasm is a reflex mechanism of the lower spinal cord or lower nervous system. In other words, animals experience sex that way. It's the biochemical explosion happening at the frontal lobe of your brain that takes sex to a higher level because that's the part of your brain which functions as the seat of reason. This is the gateway to spirituality. This is the gateway to a universal consciousness.
You have to remember that all religions are based on one foundation and that is the importance of selflessness. If you are able to eat, not because you are hungry, but because you are looking for something higher and you are able to live for something outside and bigger than you, you are being spiritual. As you can probably tell sex can be used as a gateway for that out of body and out of self-experience. It's an awesome thing. And if you develop adult friends a lot of them can be open to that. A lot of them can be open to sex as a vehicle for higher states of consciousness. That is what is missing for most guys.
If you want to get the most out of your adult friendships and those kinds of sexual arrangements, look for the spiritual component. The good news is that there are lot of open-minded women out there that are looking for the exact same thing. Not only does this take sex to a much higher level in terms of physical enjoyment, it also brings a tremendous amount of meaning, purpose and value to the sex act.

AN: Hey, I'm back! I'm at a bit of a sticking point with The Most Sinister of All Things, and I'm rewatching the old episodes, so I figured I'd add more to this one-shot series.
Also, for the sake of continuity, let's assume that the entire team – Reid, Hotch, Morgan, Garcia, and JJ – weren't fully aware of each other until the Fisher King story arc. That makes part of this story make more sense.
"You kick like a nine-year-old girl."
Hotch smiles faintly. Reid returns the grin. Satisfied, Hotch starts to turn away, but Reid's voice stops him.
Did you mean any of it?
That stops his boss cold. Hotch is still new to this – he's not used to hearing Reid inside his head, isn't really sure how to make himself heard, isn't sure about a lot of things. He's not even sure if Reid meant for him to hear that or not.
The other day, Hotch tried to discern if he was the only one who could hear Reid. As far as he knows, he is – or rather, he's the only one aware of it. He caught JJ answering one of Reid's questions without him asking it yesterday afternoon. Garcia does the same thing. Elle, Morgan, and Gideon remain immune. Hotch is the only one on the team who knows what's going on, and he hasn't let on to Reid yet.
Well, now is as good a time as any.
He focuses on the thought, on sending it to Reid. He's really not sure how this works. Mean what? He watches as Reid's eyes widen, his gaze snapping from his lap to Hotch's face. For a brief moment, Hotch can taste Reid's fear, then it's gone. He turns to fully face the younger agent. Reid, mean what? What I said to Dowd? Slowly, Reid nods. It's a small, subtle thing, unlikely to draw the attention of others. They must look odd, just staring at each other like they are, but Hotch can't bring himself to care. He can't pull away and bring this to a more private environment; Reid will just shut down. He's going to have to settle for standing here like an idiot. I was pretending to sympathize.
Reid just looks at him. You sure it was just pretending?
And suddenly everything snaps into place. Everything Hotch said to Dowd, Reid must have heard at some point in his life from people who mattered much more than his boss. Hotch wants to smack himself. How could he be so damn careless? How could he forget –
Don't you dare treat me like Gideon does, Hotch. Reid snaps. Don't think I'm some kid that needs to be coddled. Just tell me the truth – that's all I want.
Hotch wants to glance at Gideon, but he keeps his gaze trained on Reid. The truth? You're the best damn profiler I've ever seen, with the potential to be the best agent, if given the room. He lets a small smile flicker across his face. And if you'd trust in your aim.
That earns him a smile in return. Hotch walks away then, letting Gideon and Morgan have their moment with the younger agent.
After it's all over, and the agents have retired for the night, Gideon pays Hotch a visit. Hotch isn't expecting it. Gideon is a hard man to read on the best of occasions, and Hotch finds it harder to profile him every day.
When Hotch opens the door, Gideon doesn't give him the chance to speak. "What the hell were you thinking?" the older agent snarls.
Hotch blinks. "Excuse me?"
"What were you thinking giving Reid a gun?"
Now that really isn't the question Hotch is expecting. Kicking the kid, maybe – after all, the one thing Hotch is absolutely sure of is that Gideon has a soft spot for Reid – but not giving him the gun. "Well, it wasn't like I could shoot him. He was watching me."
"So you trusted the shot to Reid!"
That shocks Hotch even more. "You wouldn't have?"
"No! I would have done what was necessary and left Reid out of it." Gideon is positively livid. This is the most animated Hotch has seen the man outside of work. "Hotch, you know how young he his – you can't just leave things like that in his hands."
Don't treat me like Gideon.
Hotch scoffs. "He's not that young, Jason. And he's not that weak, either." He fixes Gideon with a hard stare. "Maybe if you'd let up a bit, you'd notice it."
That startles Gideon. "Let up? Let up how?"
"Let Reid run his own show. Let him prove himself." Hotch shrugs. "He did today."
"But Hotch – "
"Go to bed, Gideon." Hotch sighs and returns to his bed. He wonders, briefly, if Reid has been listening in. It doesn't take him long to figure it out.
Thank you.
Hotch smiles to himself. Anytime, Reid.
As Gideon leaves, JJ appears by the door. "Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't it be?" Hotch asks, tossing back his covers.
JJ shakes her head. She's already in her pajamas as well, but at least she sleeps fully clothed. Hotch prefers his boxers, which is not happening in front of his coworkers. He waits a moment, trying to figure out if the woman is going to leave or not. Discomfort is coming from her in waves; it's making him uneasy.
"I just – I got the feeling that something was wrong. That you were mad or something." She shrugs. "Must have been dreaming."
Hotch freezes. Before JJ can leave, he says, quietly, "Gideon and I had a disagreement. He made me mad. That's all."
JJ accepts that answer well enough. Hotch can feel her unease leaving.
Reid sits in the back of his mind, a tiny ball of satisfaction. Apparently two things went right today.
Hotch just shakes his head and goes to sleep. He'll worry about potential psychic coworkers in the morning.

By Steve Weinberg Special for USA TODAY
Reading a high-concept book about surprising changes in the human brain would seem, by definition, to tax the brain. Then add this twist: The primary alteration in the brains of Internet users is the difficulty of concentrating on high-concept books from the first page to the final page.
So, imagine how much a reviewer (me) who uses the Internet often might struggle with a book like The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains.
Well, I am pleased to report I made it to the final page, and I found the struggle worthwhile.
Nicholas Carr, a veteran writer about technology, is not sanguine about what he learned about his own Internet-infused brain, much less my brain.
"What can science tell us about the actual effects that Internet use is having on the way our minds work?" he asks. His answer, iterated throughout this often repetitive but otherwise excellent book: "The news is even more disturbing than I had suspected. Dozens of studies by psychologists, neurobiologists, educators and Web designers point to the same conclusion: When we go online, we enter an environment that promotes cursory reading, hurried and distracted thinking and superficial learning. It's possible to think deeply while surfing the Net, just like it's possible to think shallowly while reading a book, but that's not the type of thinking the technology encourages and rewards."
Carr cites numerous studies to delineate not only the impact on the brain, but also the alterations in brain biology that lead to the impact. It turns out the human brain is a shape shifter, the technical term being "neuroplasticity." The phenomenon is not easy to explain, but Carr is adept at explaining with as little jargon as possible. "As particular circuits in our brain strengthen through the repetition of a physical or mental activity, they begin to transform that activity into a habit."
It is not enough for Carr to explain the contemporary brain alterations linked to regular Internet use. He puts neuroplasticity into historical context. He explains how the evolution of a written alphabet, accompanied by development of a standardized syntax (the order of words within a phrase or sentence) altered the human brain. A big difference exists neurologically, it seems, between hearing a story and reading a story on a page.
Reading became more efficient. Readers became more attentive. "To read a long book silently required an ability to concentrate intently over a long period of time, to 'lose oneself' in the pages of a book," according to Carr. Developing that sort of discipline evolved slowly. Because of the Internet, that evolution is halting and apparently reversing.
Sure, Internet users are literate, and highly developed literacy will not disappear. But, Carr notes, in meshing hard science with his personal experience circa 2010, "The world of the screen ... is a very different place from the world of the page. A new intellectual ethic is taking hold. The pathways in our brains are once again being rerouted."
Readers do not need to accept Carr's conclusions on faith. The studies he mentions are available to anybody. And not just in academic journals or books. Many, probably most, of them show up somewhere online.
