For the last century, photojournalists have looked into the emotions that we go through. We had the opportunity to see the joy at the end of the World War, and we saw that photograph of that sailor kissing that woman in Times Square as well. We even looked at the flag as it was raised at Iwo Jima. There were devastating images flooding our senses when we looked at the Japanese tsunami destruction. If you like telling stories with pictures, then looking into a photojournalism career could be the right thing for you. Photojournalism will put you right in the center of a rapidly changing political arena, wars, disasters, and protests. There are famous photographs in huge publications all over the world like The New York Times and National Geographic. They help graft in an emotional overlay to things. News photographs have to be accurate, unbiased, and timely, and they have to represent what is true too. In order to be a visual storyteller, you need to know how to work in a lot of different media, and you have to be able to work in an environment that is fast-paced and meet deadlines too.
Looking into a photojournalism degree will teach you the required skills to get a job in this amazing field. Teachers who act as coaches will offer you the required direction and feedback to make sure that your photography goes to the top level possible. Get information from lots of different journalism schools so that you can find the one that's right for you.
Photojournalism Jobs Outlook
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics say that photojournalism job growth is expected to buoy 7-13% between 2012 and 2019. The average annual salary was $29,440. There can be a lot of competition to get a good job, and the Internet has made it a lot simpler for freelancer photographers to market their photographs too.
Courses in visual communications, graphic arts, web design, new media, and photography can help you get the education you have to have to get that upper edge over the competition in a work environment that is constantly evolving.
Jobs in Photojournalism
There are a number of photojournalism careers out there now. All of them need technical savvy and a creative eye, and you will get a lot of help out of a good liberal arts education. Look into your interest and skills, and check the curriculum at a number of schools to find out which one you'll be suited for best. There are a number of career options like freelance photojournalist, multimedia journalist, video editor, graphic artist, web designer, documentary filmmaker, layout editor, magazine photographer, Selling stock photos and newspaper photographer.
Photojournalism Career FAQ's
How do I get Started?
You need to start by snapping lots of photographs. Get really comfortable and familiar with the camera you have, and the software that you can use, and then submit your photographs all over the Internet if you can. Try getting into photography contests, or get a job photographing your brother's wedding. Get feedback from the photographs you take. Get a website so you can display your work. License your photographs with stock photography agencies. There are also internships for photojournalists too, and they will help get you out of a desk and into a job in the real world.
What Equipment Will I Need?
To begin, you'll need a computer and a digital camera. There are lots of software programs for beginners out there, and some of them might even come with your camera or computer. A number of photojournalists will do print work, and the knowledge and equipment to develop your photos can be useful too. Other photographers will work in both digital and film. Software is openly available to use in publishing and editing photos. With so many smartphones, the opportunity to snap quality photographs is open to the novice photographer as well.
What Courses Should I take to Pursue a Photojournalism Career?
Because technical know-how is a must, you have to take a number of different computer courses, and photography classes as well. Digital photography, creative design, editing, videography, and web design are some of the classes that might benefit you. It could also be helpful to take a few business courses, because more than 50% of photojournalists are self-employed.

US Justice Department officials plan to bring criminal charges against hackers, governments, and companies involved in nation-sponsored computer intrusions on US companies, according to a published report.
"I'll give you a prediction," John Carlin, the principal deputy assistant attorney general in the national security division of the Department of Justice, told a DefenseNews reporter. "Now that we are having people look at bringing one of these cases, it's there to be brought and you'll see a case brought."
More than 100 prosecutors are being trained to participate in the new initiative, which is being organized by a little-noticed program known as the national security cyber specialist network. Prosecutors plan to work with agents in the FBI to find additional cases to bring. Prosecutors could possibly call on investigators in the National Security Agency, the Department of Defense, and other agencies for additional help.
Hackers sponsored, or at least tolerated, by the Chinese government have been blamed for computer espionage attacks over the past five years that are alleged to have siphoned gigabytes worth of sensitive data from US defense contractors and companies in the software, pharmaceutical, and energy industries. One of the more recently reported intrusions reportedly hit Telvent Canada Ltd., a large supplier of computerized control systems for companies in the energy, transportation, and other industries. Researchers have tied Chinese hackers to espionage campaigns on scores of other companies and agencies, including RSA and the Pentagon.
State-sponsored attempts to access classified and proprietary US information grew 75 percent during the fiscal 2010 and 2011, according to a separate report.
According to DefenseNews, there are a variety of targets US prosecutors could indict. Most obviously, the targets include the hackers themselves, but Carlin also said the governments they work for or the companies using stolen intellectual property could also be charged.

I would highly recommend Cantrell's to anyone looking to get new flooring or carpet cleaning! They just replaced our carpet throughout the house & laminate in our bathroom & entrance way. I absolutely LOVE it!! Not only was everything high quality, but their service was very professional & extremely reasonable! Jason & his employees truly care about their customers. Thank you for fitting us in your schedule and being so prompt. We will definitely be referring everyone we know to you!
John and Dave are wonderful. They were on time, friendly and informative. They are detail oriented and efficient at their work! I've used their service twice now and wouldn't dream of using any one else! Thank you!
They cleaned our carpet , couch and chairs, the day after I called them. They were there when they said. Gave us a 20 min heads up. Made the furniture and carpet look really good and fresh again!
We had a good experience with Cantrell's. They protected our newly refinished wood floors when cleaning and did a great job with installation.
I've known Jason for many many years he does a great job cleaning carpets but most of all he's a great person as a human being thank you very very much look forward to cleaning my carpets again.
Jeff cleans our vacants, he goes out of his way to accommodate us. His customer service Is top notch and he does a great job!
Kind and professional. Went an extra step to help me on short notice. Carpet looks soooo much better! I will use them again.
We had a last minute job that Jason and his crew were able to fit in and at a very reasonable price. I am so impressed by his constant communication and the fact he showed up when he said he would and got the job completed in half a day. The job turned out spectacular and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Cantrell Carpet!!!
I went through Cantrell's to install new carpet in my basement. They were prompt to come to my house, measure, give a (very competitive) quote, and install. The installer was fast and did a great job. I am very satisfied with how the job turned out!
An entire gallon of white paint got spilled onto the floor at our office. I called these guys up and asked for help, and they showed up within an hour. An hour after that, it was immaculate like it never even happened. $149 to do an entire room (it rapidly got spattered after the spill). I'm literally in awe of the service that I received today. Incredible company, I'll never use anyone else from now on.
They did a FANTASTIC JOB!! Very polite and courteous gentlemen did a very thorough job for a reasonable price, and my capet looks beautiful! I will be using them from now on; highly recommend...
Jason and his crew were great from start to finish. Fair pricing, great quality of product and installation. His crew did a great job cleaning up afterwards. Would highly recommend
I was in a bind. And needed someone out that day. Jason fit me in that day. Was very thorough and professional. Explained everything to me in detail. Gave me a fair and competitive price. My wife and I are very grateful. Highly recommend Cantrell's .
Excellent customer service, cleaning and affordable. I had a minor issue and Jason (the owner) rescheduled someone to come back out free of charge. John (the cleaner) was also very nice. Highly recommend.
I literally just finished having my carpet cleaned and I'm very impressed and pleased with the finished product. John assisted me today and was very personable and professional and instantly got out stains that theapartment management claimed to have cleaned. Maybe they should contract Cantrell's instead of whomever they're using! 5 star service for sure.
Jason helped complete an entire rental property with new carpet throughout and linoleum in the kitchen. He was speedy to get the work done and has many years experience in the industry. Thank you Jason.
They did a great job cleaning my carpets! Very professional and timely.
Just had carpet installed today by Cantrell's ... these guys made it easy with quality carpet and installation at a very good price. They showed up right on time and were very professional start to finish. Good work deserves a good review and rating.
A babysitter of mine got sick on my couch and unfortunately, with 2 days of scrubbing and using the little green machine - I could not get the smell out of it. Jason came over and spent about an hour cleaning both of my couches and now there is absolutely no smell. It's completely gone! He was so pleasant and respectful of my property as well. I highly recommend him!!
They were on time, completed the job quickly, and were very reasonably priced.
Jason is one of our longest and most responsive vendors here at Suite Properties. He is always quick to respond and provide us with several estimates to provide our clients with options. We look forward to continuing to work with him and his staff!
I called Cantrells carpet cleaning to clean the carpets in our new home, due to my scheduling conflicts I had to delay the cleaning twice, they worked with me and got my carpets looking great! I highly recommend Cantrells Carpet Cleaning.
Great work by gentleman who serviced our house!
Jason's team did a great job! My carpet is beautiful, I love it!
Cantrell's is an excellent choice when you need carpet cleaning done in a professional manner and for a honest price. I have used them for my house and my rentals and have always done a great job! Highly recommend.
Fast, personable, efficient cleaning. One hundred dollars for four rooms is an excellent price, and the results are much, much better than I could get with a rental unit from the store. I think I'll call them every year.
Very efficient, on time, and got my carpets very clean
Called monday for a quote. They came on Wednesday, right on time. Did an awesome job and they respected the quote they gave me over the phone. All stains were gone. Will definitely do business with them again.
Jason and his team did a phenomenal job on the carpet cleaning of our new home. Their prices are great and they were able to come out within a few days, which was perfect. Thank you again!
You can't go wrong with Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning! Very very friendly AND always does an awesome job! I always have them, and only them now, clean my carpets. But, just had them install new carpet for a condo I just bought- they were the best quality AND price! And Jesus, who installed it did a beautiful job!! It's soo cozy in my basement now! :). I would recommend them to all my friends and family! 👍🏼
My carpets turned out amazing! Very professional and reasonably priced. Will have them back again.
Great, friendly, family-business. Easy to book with up front/no-nonsense pricing. They actually gave a call before they came which was really considerate so i could plan my day. Professional, courteous, and efficient...would happily recommend to others.
We had 2 bedrooms and an office carpeted. They did a great job and were in and out quick.
Cantrell is our go company for all our flooring needs. It's nice to have all the services they offer under one umbrella. Their services help us to turn around properties fast. Fast, dependable, communicative, and knowledgeable is the type of service we always get when we call on them!
Cantrell' s carpet cleaning cleaned my moms white carpet a few weeks ago. They did such a great job i stole the card immediately and callled. They came out last night. He was early, quick, and did a great job. I have a small dog and he got the smell out of the carpet. I will be using them again and referring them business as well.
Good service and friendly, family run business.
Prompt and removed years of ground in dirt, rust and blue paint from my white carpets...they look great! I'll be using them in the near future for sure!!
John came out today and I'm so happy we hired Cantrell's! Everything is beautiful and smells so fresh and clean. I couldn't ask for a more, Thank you! P.S. it was so much less than I expected! So worth the (very small amount of) money.
My wife and I hired Cantrell's carpet cleaning to do a new carpet install upstairs in the home we bought. Originally we had them out to do a clean on the downstairs carpet. Since Cantrell also does installs, we asked. Here's the pros & cons from our shopping (my opinion of course): Lowes: No pressure sales. Lots of options. High price to low price carpet. Probably a reasonable deal if you can get the install on sale. Carpet One: Great folks on the sales floor. Lots of options. Unfortunately though, we didn't see many good but low price options. Probably would of worked with us more if we tried though. Cantrell: I liked the door to door service. Jason came out and dropped off samples. We asked for better samples and he came back with other options. We took the samples to Lowes for example and compared the quality and price. We found them to be competitive and sometimes better. The package price was reasonable so we decided to go with the independent (Cantrell). The install looks great. The carpet feels nice. The workers stayed late to finish the job. We have wrapped stairs with railings which are very complex, but they did a very good job wrapping them. Overall I'm very pleased with the install. I was a little nervous going with a smaller outfit, but they did an excellent job with great service. The fifth star would be there when / if they had more samples to choose from initially, however he was very patient as we worked it out.
I have used Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning twice over the last several months and could not be more impressed! With three dogs and a cat, my carpets and furniture really take a beating. I was ready to replace the carpets entirely until I called Cantrell's - saved me thousands of dollars! Professional, punctual, reliable, and reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend Cantrell's and will use them again in the future.
What more can I say than extremely professional, well done, reasonable cost with their pet friendly deep carpet cleaning and getting rid of stains. Will highly, highly recommended them to my family, friends and neighbors I totally recommend.
Best carpet cleaning we have had! Company is very friendly, prompt, and has great prices!! The work was outstanding! We will use them for all our future needs!
Professional, courteous, friendly, careful, affordable. I hired them in the past, and will hire them again. Highly recommended.
Carpeted our stairs, three bedrooms, and loft. Professional, affordable, and attentive. I was a high maintenance client and Jason was excellent with my questions/requests.
Very, very happy with Cantrells! Worked with our schedule, on time, reasonably prices, took the time to explain what we should do going forward to keep our floors looking like glass. Already set up our maintenance appointment for the fall.
Cantrell's has been our preferred contractor for carpet and carpet cleaning for many years. As a property management company, we have been able to rely on their quality, prices, and dependability for all these years. That is rare and we really appreciate it.
They were on time and nice ! Did my stairs, dining, living room, hallways and bedroom for a great price. Super impressed ! Will be calling them back next year
Had a pet accident where it was tracked all over my living room on a Saturday, Cantrell's came to the rescue fast, the guy was friendly did a great job and scothgaurded for a low price!! Thank's and I will be using them for all my needs.
If you want a reliable and professional company to count on, this is the company to go to! I own a cleaning service and we do not offer carpet cleaning. We refer ALL of our current clients to Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning since they are always reliable, dependable, professional and of course the quality of work is always on point. Keep up the great work!
Professional service reasonably priced!!
They did a great job. Very friendly.
Very professional...have referred Cantrell Carpet Cleaning to many of my friends
Cantrell Carpet Cleaning is the best!!! Very professional and extremely nice. Our carpet has never been so clean. Thank you!!!
We bought a house in November 2016 and had Jason install new carpet in a number of rooms. Fantastic service, fair price, and extremely quick response time!
Jason and his staff are so professional and efficient. My office carpets can get quite dirty being a dental office, and when CCC comes in and does it's magic, the carpet looks fresh, clean, and good as new. They value customer satisfaction to a tee, and they will always give you a fair price. Jason is so well-versed in everything carpet that he makes everyone else pale in comparison. There is nobody else I would ever consider using other than Carnell's Carpet cleaning.
Very professional service. I was happy with the results and the price was great. I'd recommend them to anyone needing carpet or furniture steam cleaned, for home or office.
I've used Cantrell's for my house as well as my boat. Both experiences exceeded my expectations. I refer them to friends and family without hesitation. You won't regret your decision In choosing Cantrell's for your next project.
Jason came out and was extremely professional while giving us a very thorough quote for our house to be carpeted. After we moved forward his employee was on time and did an absolutely amazing job. With the help of Jason's services we were able to sell our house in one day on the market! Thank you Jason!!!
Per the resent power outage our basement got a little wet we called Cantrells on Saturday and jason came out and extracted the water and put blowers down to dry for a couple of days ! Came back and cleaned the carpet and you would never know it happend! Awesome Jason thank you!!
So pleased with our carpet cleaning. We had some tough areas but the results were fantastic. Very competitive price & very accurate with their arrival time. Would highly recommend this family business.
Excellent service. I called yesterday to have my carpet cleaned. Already done today and it looks better than I could have imagined. Years of dirt cleaned away! Great price for an even better service!
Jason is awesome! He came out to my house quickly with samples and suggestions. He also came back on a Saturday so my husband could see the samples. The carpet came in quickly and was installed the next day. He replaced carpet in our family room and carpeted our newly finished basement. Great pricing! Highly recommend.

I had my furniture steam cleaned and I am so thrilled with the outcome. I expected my furniture to look much cleaner but I didn't expect it to actually look brand new again, and it does! My sectional and my mattress'. They look brand new and smell so fresh! Thank you to Cantrell's carpet cleaning company, I will recommend you to all of my family and friends!
Jason got our carpet install taken care of so quickly and professionally, they did a fantastic job!
We just bought a home, and needed the basement carpet cleaned. Looks way better. They got a lot of stains up that we thought would not come up. I always prefer to work with local businesses, and was very happy with the job. Will be calling them again for my upholstery!
Just had my carpets cleaned by Cantrell's and couldnt be any happier with the results. Called Monday and they were able to have someone out the next day!
Jason did amazing work on our carpets, both cleaning and stretching! They came out looking just like new. Saved us from buying new carpet! Highly recommended.
I needed carpets cleaned in a new home and Jason fit me in at the time I requested. He sent a text to let me know he was on his way, he was early, professional and efficient. He even texted to follow up the next day! A pleasure to work with.
This company is great. They scheduled me very quickly and my carpet looks brand new now and to think I was going to replace it. I recommend this company to everyone

Awesome job!!! I was referred to Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning from a Facebook friend. We were contemplating on new carpet throughout the house, however, when they completed the job it was if we had new carpet. Best carpet cleaning service I have ever experienced, Hands Down!
Great experience with Cantrells carpet cleaning. They were polite, professional and very efficient! Did a great job, fast and very affordable! I would Def recommend!!
Were happy with the cleaning that Jason did. We have well-used carpeting in our shop and guys are in and out all the time with their boots, etc., making it a bit dirty. The carpeting actually got cleaner than I thought it would and I was happy with the job that Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning did for us.
Great work! we had a few obnoxious stains they are completely gone. Jason and John are great to have and do a quality job. The carpet was dry within a matter of a couple hours! highly recommend them!
Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning was able to come out on short notice, and save my couches. My husband and I had tried everything, from store carpet cleaners and upholstery cleaners to fabreeze and deodorizing powder, after our 3 toddlers had spilled many things, and had accidents on them. We decided to try to have them cleaned before we invested in new ones. Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning was able to completely get rid of the smell, even make them smell amazing as well as make them look like the day we bought them. I will be using them again and recommending them to my friends. Not only was the technician friendly and professional with me but he was friendly with my kids and let them watch as well. They did an awesome job.
We've used Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning for years and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have carpet or upholstery cleaned. Jason and his family are timely, effective, and incredibly professional. Always a pleasant experience.
Very polite and professional! Very affordable prices! This company is highly recommended! They did an amazing job and even came out same day to accommodate my schedule! I will definitely be calling them again! :)
We were very satisfied with the process of choosing new carpet as well as with both the old carpet removal and new carpet installation. Very price competitive to the big box retailers for the same brand of carpet. Would recommend as well as use again.
Oh my goodness what a great job! My 10 year old white carpet looks brand new!! I can't thank you enough for a job well done!!!
Cantrell's team is fantastic. Would highly recommend.
I have used this company for my personal home prior to moving in and he has also cleaned our offices at work. I continue to refer my customers to this company knowing they are in good hands. Jason and his crew are always reliable, professional and affordable.
I was required to have my carpet cleaned when moving out of my rental, much like the people that rented before me. I had taken pictures of the carpet when I moved in because there were many spots. After Cantrell's finished, it was cleaner than before. I have not had carpet cleaned in years so cannot judge the cost but it seemed reasonable. Will use them again.
I had another carpet cleaning company at my house and I had asked them if they could also clean my couch as I was having a party the next day, they said they "didn't have time". I called Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning and Jason was able to help me out and came out that day! Not only did my couch look great, but Jason also RE-DID my carpets when he noticed the solution he used on the couch had dripped on the carpet and there was a HUGE difference in how much cleaner those spots looked! I have been using them ever since and have recommended them to friends and family!
I have moved into a new home that needed the carpet cleaned. I saw some good reviews on cantrells carpet cleaning so i thought i would give them a call. At a very reasonable price Jason and his brother came out the next day right on time. They were very thorough and quick and also very professional. This carpet was pretty bad from the previous tenant and they got every stain out of the carpet! We were so happy with Jason and his brothers work i would recommend them to anyone and whenever i need more carpet cleaned i know who i will be calling.
We use Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning at the apartment complex I work at and we have over 300 apartments. We use him for new move in cleanings, lease renewal cleanings, water extractions, hallway cleaning and even carpet replacement. I have been in property management for 8+ years and Cantrell's is the best carpet cleaning service I have come across. Jason the owner is professional and very informative. Him and his employees are always on spot and make all my residents happy. I will recommend Cantrell's Carpet Cleaning to everyone I know.
We have used cantrells carpet cleaning as well as referred them to our friends and family. Jason is very professional and loves his line of work. When my daughter was 2, she drew all over our couch and love seat with ink pen. Every cusion had ink on it and of course our family was coming over the next day. Jason came out the same day and cleaned our furniture. When he was done our furniture looked great! He removed all of the ink. Thanks Jason! Keep up the good work.
Jason (not me lol) is one of the most passionate carpet cleaners I have ever came across. 1st one I've really met that deserves our repeat business for the level service, from both him and his staff AND quality of work. He takes the time to inform you of the BEST option....sometimes carpets are so worn they just need to be replaced and no amount of cleaning will suffice. I wouldn't have anyone else clean my carpets and I am glad to have met Jason. 5 Stars + Highly Recommended
I have used Jason's service for my entire home, 3 bedrooms+basement+stairway. I was very happy with his service, efficient, price is very reasonable. Referred a friend, he is also very satisfied with Jason's service and told me he is impressed with Jason's professional service. Will recommend again.
High Quality Service
I called Jason on a Friday afternoon needing someone to clean my basement carpet that weekend. He came out on time , called ahead, cleaned my carpet. Jason got the mildew smell out of my carpet. Thank you very much
Very Happy... Would Highly Recommend
Jason did a great job on our carpets. Very polite and professional. We've had other carpet cleaning companies, but none of them did as great a job as Cantrells. I would recommend this company and would defiantly employ them again.

Jason came out the day of our Christmas party an did an awesome job on are rugs I would highly recommend this company my rugs look Brand new thanks Jason
High quality service
Jason was wonderful! My 3 couches look bran new. They are not very old and I though they were pretty fluffy but, when Jason got down vacuuming and sucking all the dirt out.... Wow, even my husband said look how full, and new they look. I was so impressed when Jason was leaving; he was on his hands and knees wiping my hardwood floors, then vacuuming the area rugs all the way to the door. The only thing I would say, if you get the deodorizer it can be a strong smell for the first few days.
High quality service
Did an excellent job and very professional. highly recommend.

The former congressman has signed a plea deal with federal prosecutors where he admitted to using campaign contributions for personal expenses. NBC's Brian Williams reports.
Updated at 2 p.m. ET: Former Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. has signed papers in a plea deal with federal prosecutors in which he admits to violating campaign finance law, according to sources familiar with the case.
In the papers, signed within the past several days, Jackson admits converting campaign contributions for personal use. Some of the violations include using campaign funds for a $40,000 Rolex watch, travel expenses for a friend and furniture purchased for his Washington, D.C., home. Under the terms of the deal, Jackson's sentence would be decided by a federal judge and could range from probation to prison time.
Jackson resigned from the congressional seat he held for 17 years on Nov. 21, 2012, acknowledging a federal investigation and citing health issues.
"During this journey, I have made my share of mistakes," Jackson wrote in his resignation letter to House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. "I am aware of the ongoing federal investigation into my activities, and I am doing my best to address the situation responsibly, cooperate with the investigators, and accept responsibility for my mistakes, for they are my mistakes and mine alone. None of us is immune from our share of shortcomings or human frailties and I pray that I will be remembered for what I did right."
Those with knowledge of the investigation say some loose ends have yet to be resolved, including questions surrounding whether Jackson's wife, former Chicago Alderman Sandi Jackson, will also be charged in connection with the case. During her husband's political career Sandi Jackson regularly received a $5,000 a month check as his political consultant, according to NBCChicago.com.
Even before his resignation, Jackson had made plenty of headlines for his mysterious absence from Congress for much of 2012. It was later revealed the son of famed civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson had sought treatment at the Mayo Clinic for bipolar disorder.
Jackson's resignation came just 15 days after winning re-election to his Chicago-area district by a 40-point margin. President Barack Obama and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel (D) both endorsed Jackson during his primary battle with former Rep. Debbie Halvorson.
Jackson won eight full terms in Congress after winning a special election in 1995.
NBC's Chief Justice Correspondent Pete Williams and Mary Ann Ahern of WMAQ in Chicago contributed to this report.

If you voted in the MBTA's map re-design competition, congratulations! You were one of 17,000 people to cast a ballot to select a redesigned version of Massachusetts' most beloved map.
The contest, which concluded on Friday, featured six different versions of a re-designed T map from local graphic designers and cartographers, ranging from subtle modifications of the current map to full-blown overhauls.
Of course, T officials organizing the contest have made no promises that any of the maps will replace our old standard.
Still, the reimagined subway system renderings say a lot about the strengths and weaknesses of the current T map — and the proclivities of the thousands of people who use it every day.
I called up a local cartographer, a regular user of the T. He didn't want to be named — the map-making world is small, it seems — but offered thoughts on the cartograms and what each brought to the table.
His main conclusion: Most of the designs demonstrated innovative ideas, but were way too flashy or offbeat to ever become the T's new map.
"Bostonians, I think, are fairly traditional on a lot of things," he said. For most of the maps, "they might consider it too jarring, especially when it comes to people who've ridden the T for years. I'm wondering how much the T would want to depart from that look after all these years."
But there's always a chance: "On the other hand, maybe we'll decide to go for a new look, to try something new," he said
The contest finalists all took different approaches to what the cartographer called the biggest challenge facing any rendering of the MBTA system map: Fitting the five, crowded spokes of the Green Line into one neat slice of the map. Some moved the map's legend to a different section of the map, letting the Green Line snake down into the lower left-hand corner. Others shrunk the fonts of the Green Line stations to make them appear less crowded — a controversial move, the cartographer said, because the map suggests that the trolley stops are less important than their red, blue, and orange line heavy rail counterparts.
And several of the competition finalists committed one of the cardinal sins of subway map-making: making the train lines too thin.
"The key to this map is that when you look at it from afar or up close, the thing that should stand out right away are the four main system lines," the cartographer said. "If you're standing 20 feet away or 50 feet away, it should be something instantly recognizable."
Some of the maps featured other smaller, interesting features: On one, ribbon-like shadowing on the subway lines indicated when each of the trains move above or below ground. On another, a dashed line notified users when traveling the distance between two stops would typically take more than five minutes, such as the lengthy stretch between JFK/UMass and North Quincy stations.
The second map in the batch is perhaps the most discordant with what we use today. Unlike the current map, it does not consolidate subway lines that have multiple terminuses (the Red Line and the Green Line) and branch out at the point where train tracks diverge. Instead, the designer of this entry used parallel lines to indicate each of the different trains that run on the same subway line, even in the sections of the system where they all run on the same tracks.
It was an interesting approach, the cartography expert said, but there was one fatal flaw.
"It reminded me of other cities' maps," he said, "especially New York's."

As Weather Becomes Dreary, Easily Add Cheerful Colors at Home
Summer's green grass, colorful flowers and bright fashions are going out with the seasons ahead but that doesn't mean you have to forfeit such vibrant color just because nature does. Awaken to color in cold months by adding these cheerful additions and enjoy a lively landscape anytime of the year.
- Swap in Happy Rugs: For an effective overall update, swap out neutral and lackluster-looking rugs for something that energizes the space. If you have hardwood or carpet, you can still add a variety of colorful carpets to transform a room without a major remodel. Try invigorating orange, cheerful yellow or even grassy green and add a few accent pieces of the same color around the room for balance. The area doesn't have to be a circus of colors but these easy additions can add a whole lot of happy in humdrum colder months.
- Bring Nature In: While you may not be able to pick flowers fresh from the garden or even from the store, why not integrate these uplifting beauties more firmly into the décor? Try placing high-quality artificial floral arrangements around the home such as in the foyer, kitchen and living room or making a bigger impression by adding floral wall art. For an easy update, try WallPops, the premier line of peel-and-stick wall art from Brewster Home Fashions, that offers the Des Fleurs Wall Art Kit. It features four large pink-and-white flowers on a lime-green stem with gem embellishments. Other choices, the Sitting In a Tree Wall Art Kit with a whimsical green-leaf tree limb with blue birds perched on them and the Love Birds Wall Art Kit featuring a tan-and-cream tree with flowers, birds and heart-shaped limbs that comes in four square sheets. All approximately $29.99 each. To add a row of flowers, floral dots or a checkered pattern, also try WallPops Petals Dots, Blox and Stripes in a sixties-inspired floral design in pop colors. To accent, WallPops also offers peel-and-stick wall art in colorful solids including Flirt Pink and Stylin' Green. All approximately $15.99 each pack.
- Colorful Kitchen and Tabletop: Go bright and notice the beauty it brings to the home. One simple way to add color is with dazzling dishes, kitchen accessories and other tabletop items that are used every day. Try throwing a bold red or blue tablecloth over dining tables in time for the holidays or add a splash of color and nature by using dinnerware patterned in lively butterflies, stripes or damask. Also, retire old toasters, coffee makers and blenders and upgrade to colorful options such as those offered by Sunbeam, which currently has small home appliances in cheerful pink and teal. Approximately $19.99 each and available on Target.com. Another great way to add color and pattern to a part of the kitchen is with WallPops Anya Stripes in an intriguing floral motif dominated by a deep teal, or with the Habitat wall art, a modern spin on a classic nature inspiration.
- Pillows that Pop: Perhaps the easiest way to bring color into a space is by placing bright pillows around the room. Rather than purchasing, to simply get tired of the design or color later, buy several standard square 20" x 20" pillows and use stylish covers to rotate these accent pieces to fit with the seasons or your latest favorite color. Try various online retailers such as Pronto Home that offers a wide supply of pillow covers from popular manufacturers that include everything from solids, watercolor patterns to bright bull's eye prints.
Create a colorful home in cooler months with these easy additions and feel energized all year long.

This morning as I was listening to music on my iPod the song Trust in Jesus came on and I started to think about standing before God's judgment throne. Paul confirmed what is written all throughout the Old Testament, that everyone, even Christians, will face God's judgment.
For we will all stand before God's judgment seat.
It is written:
"'As surely as I live,' says the Lord,
'every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will confess to God.'"
So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
Romans 14:11-12 (NIV).
It occurred to me that as much as I appreciate what Jesus has done for me now, it will only be as I face the judgment throne of God that I will be able to fully appreciate the magnitude of His grace. Just as Solomon did, "I thought in my heart, 'God will bring to judgment both the righteous and the wicked, for there will be a time for every activity, a time for every deed.'" Ecclesiastes 3:17 (NIV). Perhaps it is to fulfill His promise to bring us great joy and blessing that God will reveal, at the end of our days, how much He truly loves us. Only by revealing our great need for His redemption can He make us understand.
Before the Throne
I stand before the throne of God
He opens His book to my list of sins
His messenger begins to read
my transgressions, one by one
In my mind I begin to prepare
my defense, my justification for each sin
I think I am ready to answer
to show that I deserve mercy
The list goes on and on and on
Will it ever end?
My justifications begin to fade
My heart grows weak with shame
How can I stand before His throne
the judgment throne of the Almighty
I tremble in fear of His wrath, His righteous judgment
I know it will destroy me, I cannot stand
I fall to my knees before His throne
I bow my head knowing His judgment is true
Realizing I have no defense
I have broken every commandment, every law
without a single justification
Suddenly before the throne
between me and God's final judgment
Stands the One who came to save me
His mercy and grace pour over me
I remember with great joy
that while I was yet a sinner
He loved me, He redeemed my soul
I trusted in Him and He is faithful to forgive
Before the throne of judgment and grace
I lift my voice in praise and adoration
Finally understanding completely
What His great love has accomplished
1/8/13: Shared this for Open Link Night at dVerse Poets Pub today.

We've been seeing a lot of great changes in Barbie, ever since she became a perky Computer Engineer with a bright pink laptop. But Zombie Attack Barbie is easily the greatest thing to ever have the Barbie name attached to it (even if it's not official). Including Zombie Ken.
They're coming to get you, Barbie!
Created by artist Sarah Anne Langton, this Barbie set is simply divine. Mattel, hear our pleas and make this toy available for our future spawn! From Langton's website:
From the 1950s onwards girls were encouraged to hone their zombie slaughtering skills in preparation for the inevitable apocalypse. Though young ladies dispose of the undead with ease today, toys such as Mattel's 1962 'Zombie Attack Barbie' were instrumental in helping to habituate girls to a new social norm where zombie disposal would become a very necessary life skill.
Now a collectors item 'Zombie Attack Barbie' played a salient role in ensuring the survival of countless young girls who grew up ready and willing to slaughter the zombie menace. This much loved toy still holds fond memories for so many of the lovely ladies from our Zombie Clearance Squads today.

Grain Free, Whole Grain, Limited Ingredient & Base Mixes
Add nutrition, taste andtexture to top off any meal
Delicious, nutritious rewards for training – or anytime
Replenishing meal boosters and re-hydrating drinks
Scrumptious Grain Free recipes for cats and kittens
Delectable snacks sure to be your feline's favorites
Nourishing, healing milks, broths and more
Introducing the world's FIRST human grade dry dog food.
We suggest dividing daily amount into two servings, one in the AM and one in the PM.
Our foods must be hydrated with water before serving, but you can add slightly more or less water than we suggest, according to your pet's taste. Refrigerate or discard any leftovers.
For dogs over 90 lbs: add 3/4 cup per additional 10 lbs body weight. Puppies: 1 1/2-3 months old feed twice the adult amount; 3 - 6 months old feed 1 1/2 times the adult amount; 6 - 11 months old feed 1 1/4 the adult amount. Gestation/lactation: Feed enough to maintain ideal body weight, food may need to increase 2 to 4 times the amount listed.
The Honest Kitchen does more than meet the highest standard for food safety and quality — we invented it. A few other pet food brands have since followed our lead, but most continue to use inferior, feed-grade ingredients. Once you learn the difference, you'll never go back to feed grade again.
A vast majority of pet food makers use stuff we never use from places we don't trust. The Honest Kitchen is made in the USA and never contains the potentially unsafe and unhealthy ingredients found in feed-grade products.
It's hard to get on our list — and for good reason. Our suppliers must certify they meet the strictest standards for food safety and health as well as sustainability and fair-trade practices. Every year, each of our dog food suppliers signs our "Human Food Grade Guarantee" and "Statement of Quality and Integrity." We think it's important you know what they have to live up to.
Most pet food makers would never invite you inside their kitchens—because they're not kitchens. They're heavy processing plants. But our food is prepared right alongside breakfast cereals and bakery mixes, so it satisfies the same rigorous safety, cleanliness and quality standards of people food.
The Honest Kitchen Food Safety and Quality Assurance Program ensures that all of our recipes meet human-food standards. We analyze food nutrition, monitor water activity and test for pathogens. We also screen for harmful heavy metals in every batch of our food, four times a year.
We test all aspects of our dehydrated dog and cat foods to rule out anything that could possibly hurt your pet. That includes all the bad things you can only see under a microscope, like:
Heavy metals occur naturally in some ingredients and the FDA hasn't established tolerance levels for U.S. foods, so, we follow internationally recognized human-food standards set by several agencies around the world.

Don't mess with Tex-Mex: Chuy's spikes 18% in market debutJuly 24, 2012: 1:26 PM ET
Shares of Tex-Mex restaurant chain Chuy's spiked as much as 18% Tuesday as they made their stock market debut.
Austin, Texas-based Chuy's (CHUY), which operates 36 full-service restaurants across the Lone Star State and the Midwest, raised $76 million in its initial public offering after pricing 5.8 million shares at $13 apiece, the high ends of its estimated range.
Chuy's boasts about having a broad customer base, with only three of the 49 items on its Tex-Mex menu priced over $10. But Chuy's also warned that, like others in the restaurant industry, it depends on consumer discretionary spending and if weak economic conditions continue or worsen, sales could slow.
Last Friday, shares of Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) plunged more than 20% after the company reported weaker-than-expected sales growth. Chipotle's same-store sales, a key measure of demand, grew only 8% during the quarter, compared with an expected increase of 10.2%.

Chuy's revenue rose 28% to $37.5 million during the quarter ended March 25, driven by $7.7 million in incremental sale from new restaurants. Same-store sales - which count sales at stores open a year or more - increased just 2.6%. And Chuy's overall profit declined 70% as the restaurant chain spent more money on training and staffing at new locations.
Fellow restaurant operator Del Frisco's is expected to price its initial public offering after the market close Thursday, and begin trading Friday under the ticker "DFRG." The high-end steakhouse is expected to price 7 million shares between $14 and $16 a piece.
Chuy's successful first day of trading is yet another sign that Facebook's (FB) botched debut didn't actually derail the IPO market, despite the fears. Since the social media giant went public on May 18, nine other companies have stepped into public realm, including tech firm Palo Alto Networks (PANW) and online travel site Kayak (KYAK), according to IPO research firm Renaissance Capital.

The Internet has brought to life many large social trends like networking, chat, blogging – the list goes on. With the ease of Web development and self-publishing, the Internet has also become an outlet for all types of creative writers. For underground writers, zines, or small publications containing self-published text and images, can now be widely distributed and given a louder voice. Fan fiction, in which fans travel beyond the framework of an original work with their own words, is arising from the faithful followers of bestselling sagas like Stephenie Meyer's Twilight, Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games, J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter, and many others. Creative writing has gained its own fan base and with the help of the Internet (and libraries!), that following is growing every day. The following links and sites are a glimpse at some of the resources providing outlets and cultivating new writers in the world of Internet creative writing.
New resources that will be added to the ipl2 are noted NEW! All other resources are already listed in the ipl2 collection.
NEW! National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo)
November is National Novel Writing Month, which brings along a challenge for writers to compose 50,000 words of a new novel between the days of November 1 and November 30 each year. This site allows a writer to register, track their progress, receive support from fellow writers, and network with other participants in the project. Started in 1999, over 2 billion words have been produced toward this project, a self described "thirty days and nights of literary abandon."
The Open Diary (find it on ipl2 – Teen – Reading and Writing – Blogs)
This site is a collection of diary and journal entries from writers throughout the Internet. A writer may create a free account and write their own entries and connect with the entries of others. Open Diary also names November as NoJoMo, or National Journaling Month, and challenges its writers to "write at least one entry, every day, for the entire month of November."
NEW! Archive of Our Own
As a product of the Organization for Transformative Works and established in 2008, Archive of Our Own (also known as AO3) is an archive of fan works of all kinds – fan fiction, fan art, and fan videos. It is currently in beta, invite-only format and contains a library of almost 250,000 works from over 7,500 fandoms, or original works.
Zine: Xenith (find it on ipl2 – Teen – Reading and Writing – Zines)
A zine originally created for teens in 1997, this online collection of images, prose, literary science, poetry, and general writing thoughts is still going strong with over 3,000 hits per month. News and commentary sections, regular columns, and a reading list accompany the submissions of all previously unpublished creative writing on the site, as well as a forum for writers looking for feedback on their creations and possible contributions to Xenith's growing number of entries.
NEW! FanFiction.Net
A resource for archiving fan fiction, FanFiction.Net has over 2.2 million users and contains fiction written in over thirty languages based on hundreds of original works, including Twilight, Harry Potter, Glee, and Lord of the Rings. Writers may submit fiction without cost and stories are categorized by genre and original work and users may contribute to communities of writers through a forum providing feedback and reviews.
NEW! FictionPress
A sister site of FanFiction.Net, FictionPress serves as a digital archive and self-publishing site for Internet poetry, plays, and original stories. Containing a network of over one million writers and readers with a library of over one million works, FictionPress is "a place to showcase your creativity. For a reader, this is a place of discovery and an opportunity to feast to your heart's content." Writers can browse fiction and poetry categorized by genre and also find registered "beta readers" to read and proof their content.

An enchanting past & fast-paced future
It's hard to imagine Tokyo as a tiny fishing village named Edo. Tokyo is now the largest metropolitan area in the world, an exciting city with a seemingly unlimited choice of shopping, restaurants, museums, temples, and gardens to visit.
Start with the live tuna auctions at the Tsukiji Fish Market, the largest and busiest fish market in the world, then head to Tsukiji's electronic equivalent, Akihabara Electric Town (Denki-Gai), for the very latest in gadgetry and games, and of course a classic sushi experience is a must. Slow down at the serene Meiji Shrine, the beautiful Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, or take it all in from high above at the Tokyo City View, the 52nd floor observation deck at Mori Tower in Roppongi Hills.
In a quintessential story of old meets new, Tokyo is fast-paced, trendy and high tech, but is never very far away from its enchanting past.

sinusoidal obstruction syndrome
(SINE-yoo-SOY-dul ub-STRUK-shun SIN-drome)
A condition in which some of the veins in the liver are blocked. This causes a decrease in blood flow inside the liver and may lead to liver damage. Signs and symptoms include weight gain, yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes, dark-colored urine, and increased liver size. It may occur at some point in time after radiation therapy to the liver and bile ducts or after high-dose anticancer drugs were given before a stem cell transplant. Also called hepatic veno-occlusive disease.

You would think that an accountant spends enough time in Excel, but one used his expertise in the Microsoft spreadsheet program to make a role-playing game.
Cary Walkin, a chartered accountant from Toronto, released Arena.xlsm earlier this year. It's a full RPG that playable within Excel. It features over 2,000 random enemies, 1,000 random items, and eight boss encounters. Arena also has four different endings depending on how players tackle the adventure — that's the same number of endings as Mass Effect 3.
GamesBeat asked Walkin what possessed him to develop an original game using the productivity software.
"I was taking a course for my MBA in advanced spreadsheet modelling," he said. "Making a game seemed like a much better use of my time than option pricing valuation models."
The accountant said that a light bulb went off in his head when he discovered that he could make buttons within spreadsheets.
"That was the day I realized that I had to make a game," said Walkin.
For the basic design structure, Walkin taught himself by playing other games and watching the informative Extra Credits webshow from Penny Arcade.
Walkin is currently an MBA candidate at the Schulich School of Business in Toronto. Despite the extensive time spent in Excel both for his area of study and this game, he spends his free time maintaining spreadsheets.
"When I play games outside of Excel, I am usually using spreadsheets in games like Eve Online," he said.
So as great as accounting is, would Walkin ever consider a career developing games full-time?
"Absolutely. I have a passion for video games, so anything involving video games is better than taxes!"

Washington state has turned to Facebook to revamp its voter registration process.
The state will unveil voter registration through the Palo Alto-based social networking giant as early as next week, the Associated Press reports.
Washington first offered the ability to register online in 2008 and has processed 475,000 registrations or change of addresses since. It's one of 13 states in the country that currently offer online registration.
The state will provide an application on its Facebook page and give users the ability to 'like' and recommend to friends.
"In this age of social media and more people going online for services, this is a natural way to introduce people to online registration and leverage the power of friends on Facebook to get more people registered," said Shane Hamlin, Washington's co-director of elections.
The application was developed by Redmond, Wash.-based Microsoft, which has worked with Facebook and Washington on project since last Fall. To work, the application will require users to agree to let Facebook access some personal information. It will automatically enter each user's name and birthday into the voter registration form, but additional information will be required to be input manually.
Hamlin made it clear that the additional information required on the registration form will not be shared with Facebook.
"You are giving your information to us, not Facebook," he said.
Once it is live, Washington will be the first state in the country to allow voter registration via Facebook.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – On Tuesday, Tennessee State head football coach Rod Reed was named a finalist for the Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year.
Reed joins 20 other coaches for the award which is presented by the Sports Network to the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) National Coach of the Year.
This season, TSU sits at No. 25 in the latest coaches poll, is 9-3 (6-2 OVC) and is enjoying its finest year since its league championship team in 1999.
Reed has also raised his team's win total from three during his first campaign in 2010, to five and then eight during last season.
Tennessee State's 25 victories over the past four years are the most by the Tigers since 1998-2001 and Reed's .454 winning percentage is the best start for a TSU head coach since L.C. Cole.
Voting will reflect only regular-season results and will be conducted by a national panel of sports information and media relations directors, broadcasters, writers and other dignitaries. The winner will be announced at The Sports Network FCS Awards Banquet and Presentation to be held Dec. 16 in Philadelphia.
The winners of the three FCS player awards - the Walter Payton (FCS outstanding player), the Buck Buchanan (FCS outstanding defensive player) and the Jerry Rice (FCS freshman of the year) - also will be announced at the national banquet.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney is having elective back surgery Thursday at George Washington University Hospital.
The surgery is to deal with lumbar spinal stenosis, a common cause of lower back pain in older adults, Cheney spokeswoman Lucy Tutwiler said.
Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal -- the passage for the spinal cord -- which in turn puts pressure on nerves, causing pain. Surgery is done to widen the passage and ease that pressure, typically by removing a bit of the vertebra.
Political coverage from NBC4.
Dr. Anthony Caputy, chairman of the hospital's neurosurgery department, is performing the operation.
Cheney is 68 years old. He has had four heart attacks and had the following procedures done during his years in the George W. Bush White House:
- Defibrillator implanted
- Defibrillator replaced
- Surgery to treat aneurysms behind his knees
- Electric shock administered to his heart to restore its rhythm
- Surgery to correct the abnormal heart rhythm
He also had hospital visits after feeling shortness of breath and the development of a blood clot in his leg after a long trip to Asia.

My breathtaking Diamond Fire Glass
After months of looking at the new contemporary 'fire glass' fire pits, I was ready to replace our 'log' fire pit. When our new pit arrived, the company included a bag of "their" fire rock...lucky for me it was black, dull, cloudy & scratched. Exactly how DFG explained & showed industry comparisons on fire glass, I could now actually see with my own eyes.
Immediately I got on-line and ordered my "Diamond Fire Glass." The brilliance & reflective color choices are breathtaking, it was hard to decide on which color combination I wanted...
Within two days it was shipped and I was thrilled! The colors we purchased were: Cobalt Dark Blue Reflective Nugget and the Platinum Reflective Crystals. Thank you Brian and staff for the great personal service.
Kimberly P.
Worth the price, great and fast service!
Just received our glass and it is beautiful! Worth the price... great, fast service. Can't wait to get the patio and fire pit finished!! I dumped it all in a large pan and just can't resist going out to run my fingers through it and watch the sparkle! Took me forever to pick out the colors, but I love them!

UC Hastings Challenge
Time to go all-in for opportunity
Once again, we are privileged to chair the UC Hastings Challenge, which invites all alumni — at law firms, in corporate or public sector organizations — to reconnect with UC Hastings and play a role in the law school's future.
This year, the Challenge rallies us around the idea of opportunity. We all experienced opportunity at UC Hastings. And we've all built on what UC Hastings provided to create interesting and successful careers through which we make a difference.
We invite you now to pay that opportunity forward by investing in opportunity for this and subsequent generations of students. Challenge gifts or pledges from successful alumni like you sustain the singular advantage that defines a UC Hastings education. Opportunities to participate in innovative new clinics, learn from our profession's leading scholars, gain savvy and experience in an exciting urban environment — you can make all this and so much more possible through the Challenge.
Why does a public institution need private support? As you are probably aware, public support for UC Hastings has eroded dramatically in recent years. In the 2014 – 15 academic year, the law school received only 17% of its total operating budget from the State of California's General Fund. To remain affordable and excellent — to maintain a high profile among law schools — UC Hastings relies on our support. And the next generation of alums is counting on us.
UC Hastings has always felt like an all-in place. We know that you worked hard and probably sacrificed much for your legal education. Now, we hope you'll go all-in for the UC Hastings Challenge, channeling the drive to excel and the competitive spirit that lives in all of us.
Participation in the Challenge is your opportunity to give back — and be recognized as part of an exceptional firm, company, or organization. Any gift or pledge you make during 2015 will count toward your employer's participation rate. Your organization will receive recognition when the percentage of your alumni who donate reaches silver (50%), gold (75%) or platinum (100%) levels.
Although we're co-chairing the Challenge, we know that alumni volunteers who make their gifts and then invite colleagues to do the same are the true leaders. Let's go all-in and contribute to the future together. Tomorrow's UC Hastings opportunities depend on us.
Thank you!
Phil Matthews '77, Duane Morris, UC Hastings Challenge Co-chair
Alyce Rubinfeld Fox '82, Musick Peeler & Garrett, UC Hastings Challenge Co-chair
If your firm, corporation or organization is not already participating in the Challenge, we invite you to join us in this important program. Get involved by contacting Robin Drysdale in the Alumni Center at 415.565.4852.
We invite you to join the challenge!
