The identification of neuroprotectin D1 (NPD1), a biosynthetic product of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), in brain and retina as well as the characterization of its bioactivity, is generating a renewed interest in the functional role and pathophysiological significance of omega-3 fatty acids in the central nervous system.
Neurotrophins, particularly pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), induce NPD1 synthesis and its polarized apical secretion, implying paracrine and autocrine bioactivity of this lipid mediator. Also, DHA and PEDF synergistically activate NPD1 synthesis and antiapoptotic protein expression and decreased proapoptotic Bcl-2 protein expression and caspase 3 activation during oxidative stress.
In experimental stroke, endogenous NPD1 synthesis was found to be upregulated, and the infusion of the lipid mediator into the brain under these conditions revealed neuroprotective bioactivity of NPD1.
The hippocampal CA1 region from Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients (rapidly sampled) shows a major reduction in NPD1.
The interplay of DHA-derived neuroprotective signaling aims to counteract proinflammatory, cell-damaging events triggered by multiple, converging cytokine and amyloid peptide factors, as in the case of AD. Generation of NPD1 from DHA thereby appears to redirect cellular fate toward successful preservation of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE)-photoreceptor cell integrity and brain cell aging. The Bcl-2 pro- and antiapoptotic proteins, neurotrophins, and NPD1, lie along a cell fate-regulatory pathway whose component members are highly interactive, and have potential to function cooperatively in cell survival. Agents that stimulate NPD1 biosynthesis, NPD1 analogs, or dietary regimens may be useful as new preventive/therapeutic strategies for neurodegenerative diseases.
One of the brain and retina early responses to injury and to the onset of neurodegeneration is the synthesis of stereospecific docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) derivatives, the bioactive neuroprotective docosanoids. Although it has been reported that DHA participates in retina and brain damage [1–5], our laboratory, in contrast, showed that the retina forms mono-, di- and trihydroxyl derivatives of DHA that may be neuroprotective [6]. Since lipoxygenase inhibitors were found to block this synthesis, an enzymatic process catalyzed by a lipoxygenase was implied [6] and the name "docosanoids" was suggested because they are derived from the 22C DHA. Upon the development of lipidomic analysis based on liquid chromatography, photodiode array, electrospray ionization, and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-PDA-ESI-MS-MS-based lipidomic analysis), a collaboration between the group of Charles Serhan (Harvard Medical School, http://hms.harvard.edu/hms/home.asp) and our group identified oxygenation pathways for the synthesis of the docosanoid neuroprotectin D1 (NPD1) and its bioactivity during brain ischemia-reperfusion [7] and in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells challenged by oxidative stress [8]. We suggested the name 'neuroprotectin D1' [8] based upon its neuroprotective bioactivity in oxidatively stressed RPE cells and brain and its potent ability to inactivate pro-apoptotic and pro-inflammatory signaling. 'D1' refers to its being the first identified neuroprotective mediator derived from DHA. DHA belongs to the essential omega-3 fatty acid family. Activators of docosanoid synthesis include oxidative stress, cytokines and neurotrophins [5,9,10]. 10R,17S-DHA (NPD1) is the first characterized docosanoid. Here we provide a brief overview of the neuroprotective bioactivity of NPD1 in RPE cells, in experimental stroke, and in human neural progenitor brain cells in culture.
Rods and cones (photoreceptors) require outer segment phagocytosis to function properly. Photoreceptor cells are specialized and differentiated neurons with stacks of photosensitive membrane disks (outer segments) which contain rhodopsin as well as other proteins. This part of the photoreceptor, in which rhodopsin and other proteins perform their functions, contains the highest amounts of DHA-rich phospholipids in the human body and tenaciously retain DHA even during very prolonged periods of omega-3 fatty acid deprivation [5,11,12]. Interestingly, there are also omega-3 fatty acid derivatives longer than C22. Essentially, all are esterified in phospholipids. In some phospholipids, there are two omega-3 fatty acids esterified at both sn-1 and sn-2 of the same glycerol backbone (the supraenoic or supraenes molecular species of phospholipids). The supraenoic phosphatidylcholines that contain DHA (at position sn-2) and the 24:6–36:6 elongation products of the omega-3 fatty acid family series (at position sn-1) are tightly bound to rhodopsin, and may restrict rhodopsin motion [13]. Phospholipids containing DHA conform a favorable environment within which G-protein-coupled events can occur. Another aspect is the physiologically selective enrichment of DHA in phosphatidylserine in neural cells, which positively modulates Akt survival signaling [14,15]. These actions of DHA are not mutually exclusive, and contribute specific functions for membrane DHA.
Under normal conditions, DHA is retained and protected from peroxidation. However, when lipid peroxidation takes place in experimental models of retinal degeneration, perturbation of photoreceptor function, damage, and cell death occur. In several forms of retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and in Usher's syndrome, a decrease of DHA content in blood has been reported [16]. A possible implication of these studies is that decreased DHA supply to the retina may impair photoreceptor function by decreasing the availability of DHA to photoreceptors. However, the relationship between decreased DHA blood supply and disease initiation and progression remains unclear. Rats overexpressing rhodopsin mutations homologous to human RP display decreased amounts of DHA in photoreceptors [12]. This could represent a retinal response to metabolic stress, whereby decreasing the amount of the major target of lipid peroxidation (DHA) contributes to the protection of photoreceptors. In addition, in constant-light-mediated retinal degeneration, there is loss of DHA from photoreceptors. Rats reared in bright cyclic light are protected from such loss and degeneration, suggesting that there is adaptation and/or a plasticity mechanism [17].
Is the shortage of DHA in the blood of Usher's syndrome and RP patients reflected in the close relationship of very-long-chain DHA-derived acyl groups with rhodopsin? Or, as shown in experimental retinal degeneration, is the peroxidation of DHA closely associated with rhodopsin, perhaps impairing the function of this protein? Or alternatively (or in addition), does DHA serve as a precursor for a survival mediator, and is the regulation of this pathway perturbed? These questions have not yet been answered. However, DHA has been shown to promote survival and inhibit apoptosis of photoreceptors [18,19]. In an Alzheimer's disease mouse model, DHA exerts neural protection, and several studies have shown neuroprotective properties of DHA. Here, we review recent results that demonstrate that DHA is the precursor of neuroprotectin D1, a potent promoter of photoreceptor cell survival, which also promotes protection of neural cells.
Photoreceptor cells undergo a constant renewal of their outer segments mediated by RPE cells in a daily and circadian manner (Figure 1A). Proteins are turned over and replaced rapidly; however, this is not the case with phospholipids since they are retained during renewal. DHA is recycled back from the RPE cells to the photoreceptors (Figure 1B). Photoreceptor phospholipids are enriched with DHA, which is essential and necessary for photoreceptor function and survival.
Experimental phagocytosis of photoreceptor outer segments and polystyrene microspheres showed that RPE cells fed only with outer segments were more resistant to oxidative stress-induced apoptosis [20]. On the other hand, RPE cells that effectively phagocytized microspheres when exposed to oxidative stress showed apoptosis. The synthesis of NPD1 was selectively enhanced during outer segment phagocytosis. The highest amount of NPD1 was seen in RPE cells that phagocytized outer segments and were exposed to oxidative stress. A three-fold accumulation of NPD1 was observed as compared to cells that did not phagocytize outer segments. The increase in NPD1 was almost six times higher than that of RPE cells exposed to microspheres. Outer segment phagocytosis also triggered early response gene induction [21], as well as COX-2 [22] and PPARγ [23] expression.
Thus, outer segment phagocytosis enhances RPE cell survival during oxidative stress preceded by increases of free DHA and NPD1. The RPE cells utilize free DHA for NPD1 synthesis when exposed to oxidative stress that, in turn, exerts antiinflammatory and antiapoptotic signaling. We can finally distinguish the homeostasis of DHA-NPD1 regulation that, if altered, could lead to the initiation or prolongation of retinal degenerative diseases due to loss of the RPE cells.
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) serves a crucial role in the maintenance of healthy photoreceptors and, consequently, vision. The basolateral membrane of the RPE is in contact with the choriocapillaris, thereby allowing nutrients to pass from the blood stream into the eye. This semi-permeable epithelium allows all-trans retinol (Vitamin A), DHA, and other molecules to be captured and delivered to photoreceptors. The apical aspect of the RPE is in contact with the tip of the outer segments of photoreceptor cells. During photoreceptor outer segment renewal, the RPE phagocytizes the old disks discarded by the distal outer segment. These old disks once housed the phototransduction machinery for the eye, as well as DHA, and get recycled back to the RPE (Figure 1, A and B).
NPD1 also cytoprotects against the apoptotic effects of the accumulated bispyridinium bisretinoid A2E. A2E is a byproduct of phototransduction that becomes toxic when it accumulates in RPE cells during aging, in age-related macular degeneration, and in Stargardt macular dystrophy. It is interesting to note that there is a six hour window in which these neuroprotective effects can be seen. NPD1 also neuroprotects against oxidative stress generated by serum starvation/H2O2 (600μM)/TNFα (10 ng/ml), and does so for an eight-hour time frame. In looking at the pathway for cytoprotection, NPD1 (50 nM) did not affect the conversion of A2E to A2E oxiranes. The action of NPD1 was found to occur at the premitochondrial stage of the apoptosis pathway via decreasing caspase-3 cleavage, decreasing Bax expression, and increasing Bcl-2 expression [10].
Neurotrophins stimulated production and release of NPD1 from the RPE. Human RPE cells were used in monolayers to define whether the NPD1 was secreted on the apical or the basal side of the RPE. Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), neurotrophin-3 (NT3), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), nerve growth factor (NGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF), Persephin, and pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) all produced an increase of NPD1 through the apical surface. PEDF elicited the largest synthesis and release of NPD1. Increasing concentrations of PEDF or ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), when added to the basal medium, induced less apical incubation of NPD1, whereas adding the neurotrophins to the apical medium yielded a concentration-dependent increase in apical NPD1 levels [10].
DHA potentiates PEDF-induced release of NPD1 through the apical surface of RPE cells. NPD1 concentration is dependent on whether the PEDF was placed in the media on the apical or basolateral side, with the apical side resulting in more NPD1 production. The addition of DHA to either side of the monolayer produced a PEDF-potentiated increase of NPD1 only on the apical side. Increasing concentrations of DHA on both sides of the monolayer yielded a stepwise increase in apical NPD1 concentration up to a point (50 nM), whereas the basolateral NPD1 concentration had the opposite effect. The addition of PEDF (50 ng/ml) to the increasing DHA concentration synergistically augmented apical NPD1 concentration.
When presented with oxidative stress (serum starvation/H2O2 (600 μM)/TNFα (10 ng/ml)), DHA and PEDF synergistically act to protect human RPE cells in culture. The concentration of NPD1 is greater when DHA and PEDF are added together than when either DHA or PEDF are added alone. Moreover, DHA and PEDF synergistically increased the expression of antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bfl-1 while concomitantly decreasing the proapoptotic proteins Bid, Bax, and Bad during oxidative stress conditions. DHA alone, when increased from 10 to 50 nM, amplified Bcl-2 and Bfl-1 production. Though PEDF by itself does not modify expression of the Bcl-2 family of proteins, PEDF synergistically acts with DHA to increase antiapoptotic protein expression and decrease proapoptotic protein expression. Caspase-3 cleavage increases with increased apoptosis (as seen by Hoechst-positive RPE cells) under oxidative stress. Caspase-3 decreases with the addition of 10 to 50 nM DHA, and this effect is potentiated by the addition of PEDF.
In experimental stroke, endogenous NPD1 synthesis was found to be upregulated during the initial eight hours of reperfusion [7]. When this lipid mediator was infused into the brain during ischemia-reperfusion, neuroprotective bioactivity was revealed [7]. Furthermore, when DHA was administered i.v. after middle-cerebral artery occlusion, protection was concomitant with NPD1 synthesis on the ipsilateral brain side [24].
The aging of human neural progenitor cells (HN cells, neurons and glia) in primary culture during eight weeks is accompanied by an eight-fold enhanced synthesis and release of Aβ40 and Aβ42 peptides that resembles processes that involve Aβ amyloid peptides in Alzheimer's disease (AD). No changes in neuronal and glial morphology after 18 hours of exposure to Aβ42 took place. This suggests that although Aβ42 is activating cell-damaging signals, and yet it is unable to overwhelm endogenous survival signaling. Also, there was an early onset of apoptosis and changes in gene-expression patterns that resemble neurodegenerative events characteristic of AD [25]. Accumulation of secreted Aβ40 and Aβ42 peptides during HN cell aging has implications in the development of Aβ-related neuropathology. The proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β enhances Aβ40 and Aβ42 secretion as a function of HN cell aging. IL-1β stimulates gamma-secretase-mediated cleavage of βAPP into Aβ peptides. Conversely, DHA suppresses both Aβ40 and Aβ42 peptide release with concomitant NPD1 synthesis [25]. Moreover, NPD1 inhibits Aβ42-induced apoptosis in HN cells. Therefore, DHA neuroprotection in a model of human brain cell aging in vitro involves NPD1 synthesis. To further explore cell survival signaling in the same cell culture model, pro- and antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins were studied. These proteins are modulators of pre-mitochondrial check points of apoptosis. Proapoptotic Bik and Bax are enhanced by Aβ42, but not by DHA or NPD1, whereas Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Bfl-1(A1) increase in the presence of DHA. NPD1, on the other hand, promotes a much larger increase in antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins. Bfl-1(A1) increased almost 6-fold. These modulatory actions of NPD1 may play critical roles in the survival of aged and terminally differentiated cells and break the mechanistic link between inflammatory signaling and apoptosis. In fact, NPD1 also induces the antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL in oxidatively challenged human RPE cells and promotes cytoprotection [8,10]. A further suggestion of the significance of NPD1 in AD is the finding that hippocampal CA1 from AD patients shows a major reduction in NPD1 [25]. Thus, the interplay of DHA-derived neuroprotective signaling aims to counteract proinflammatory, cell-damaging events triggered by multiple, converging cytokine and amyloid peptide factors in AD. Amyloid peptides mediate oxidative stress and microglial-derived cytokines, such as IL-1β and TNFα, support progressive inflammatory episodes in AD. These noxious stimuli further orchestrate pathogenic gene-expression programs in stressed brain cells, thereby linking a cascade of cell death pathways with apoptosis and neuronal demise. Neural mechanisms leading toward NPD1 generation from DHA thereby appear to redirect cellular fate toward successful preservation of RPE-photoreceptor cell integrity [10,20,26] and brain cell aging [25]. The Bcl-2 pro- and antiapoptotic gene families, sAPP alpha (and/or other neurotrophins) and NPD1, lie along a cell fate-regulatory pathway whose component members are highly interactive, and have potential to function cooperatively in brain and retina cell survival. Activators of NPD1 biosynthesis, NPD1 analogs or dietary regimens may be useful for exploring new preventive/therapeutic strategies for neurodegenerative diseases.

Chelsea - Buffon
I agree, Chelsea are going down a very rocky road...look at there 30million pound player who has scored as many goals as Gary Neville as for England !!! Yeah sure he will knock a few goals in but I am sure that the other strikers sitting on the bench are over the moon that they will not get a chance unless he gets injured. So I sure it would be the same if Buffon does come in. It wouldn't surprise me if they do it to stop Arsenal going for Buffon in the January sales. They done it with Wright-Phillips after all !!!!Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
From what i can make out from the various tv pages and newspaper reports, it seems doubtful that buffon will leave italy.
Also some reports are suggesting that poor cech may not recover to play again, I think this is if they cant remove the plate they have put in to help the bone heal.
But if i were buffon i would not fancy chelsea, for the simple reason if please god cech recovers and can play the fans would have an emotional pull towards cech, whether the chelsea bosses would is another matter.
The price is high would arsenal pay that sort of money??
Buffon wants to play in champions cup and can't do so with juve for at least 2 yrs seria b promotion??? then have to come 3rd in seria A??.
Juve are not getting the revenue they are used to and have offloaded some of their higher wage earners, it is still not yet clear how much more offloading they will need to do.

Jason McKinzie's Reviews > Total Control: The Michael Nesmith Story
Total Control: The Michael Nesmith Story

Jason McKinzie's review

bookshelves: autobiography-biography, music, non-fiction, entertainment-industry
A good book, possibly because it's the only book of its kind. No other author has yet elected to devote an entire book to this unique artist. The upside of this book is that if you are a Nesmith fan you'll get to read all about Nez's decades-long, multifaceted career. On the downside, it frequently comes across as if the author doesn't even like Nesmith, and goes out of her way to portray his as an egomanical jerk. If you are going to write a book about an artist with a small but devoted following, it might be in your best interest to speak of your subject positively, otherwise you are essentially alienating the very readers to whom you wish to sell your book. But if you like Nez, read it anyway. You're not going to find a better book about him.

All the carriers have poor signal somewhere. ATT should put a new tower in my area because they area is no longer rural. Too many towers make the landscapre unattractive. Perhaps it is time for a new approach to civilian communication. What about satellite service at cheap prices?Was this review helpful to you?
No signal at all in house and no data just text with delays outside.Was this review helpful to you?
very disappointed in Sprint. Planning to switch as soon as I go northWas this review helpful to you?
Hillsborough west of Toledo Blade, almost always drops any calls. I even mention to people I'm talking to that we will be cut off soon.Was this review helpful to you?
I have bought 4 phones from them thinking is the phone and still get no service unless I stand my phone in the front window. Miss calls all the time and I have had two emergencies where I have found my self without phone. Out of the 4 phones in the house only 1 works even if connected to the wifi. You do get what you pay for.Was this review helpful to you?
Don't do it! The price brought me over and the reception sent me away. Had T-Mobile for 8 days. Continued dropped calls. No service. They say North Port is covered but they lie. There is absolutely no service here. Run away! Don't look back. Sometimes you get what you pay for.Was this review helpful to you?
Very poor service from AT&T in North Port area near Heron Creek. Have spoken to AT&T and there basic response is I should go outside. Not acceptable answer. Second response from them is they can offer a booster for a flat fee of $150. My response is if AT&T is charging me full price for what they admit is very limited service, then I believe they should make the improvement at no charge to me. Bottom line I am cancelling AT&T and recommend you don't get involved with them if you live in North Port, Florida.Was this review helpful to you?
It sucks. T- mobile absolutely does not give a f.. About North Port. After more than 1.5 year calling I get the same answer. We are working on it, parts on order may take 6 month. No data in North Port. You are lucky if Text works. Dropped calls. And oh their coverage maps says 4G LTE all over. Well they are lying. Tech support will tell you most towers are still 2G and nobody knows when they may think to get North Port covered. It sucks.Was this review helpful to you?
Can barely call in North Port, Data is nonexistent from North Port to North Venice. Truly a dead zone. As soon as you get to Sarasota or into Port Charlotte. boom! Data returns with full speed. It's a crime the service is so bad in North Port and Venice!Was this review helpful to you?
Since our move to north port Florida 5 years ago, our T-Mobile data connection sucks beyond belief. No reception at home. They gave me a booster which is worthless. Did absolutely nothing. Cannot get connection within a mile of our home! Hot spots? What hotspots? We need our phone for work. NO RECEPTION AT ALL! 40 min from our home. We have Comcast WiFi at home. Without it, we have zip. It appears that local T-Mobile stores know of the problem, but you call customer service, its about YOUR phone, YOUR SETTINGS, YOUR PROBLEM, NO RESOLVE. I would switch ASAP, but can't afford 2 new phones. We have been a T-Mobile customer for 9 years. Time to move on! Do you here me Verizon?Was this review helpful to you?

Luis Velez, the former police chief for Colorado Springs has been announced as the Interim Chief of Police for Pueblo.
Velez, a 31-year veteran of the police force, boasts an extensive background which includes a doctorate in management from the Colorado Technical University, an education from the FBI National Academy and FBI Executive Institute and an appointment by the governor to serve on the Peace Officers Standards and Training board in 2004.
"I have known Lou Velez for several years and I have a great deal of respect for him," Chief James W. Billings, Jr. said. Billings is the current Pueblo Chief of Police, and is retiring.
"The members of the police department, as well as the community at large, will find him knowledgeable, approachable and professional. His selection as the Interim Chief should facilitate a smooth transition in the process to appoint the new Chief of Police," Billings added.
Velez served as Chief of Police for Colorado Springs from 2002 until 2006. Upon retiring, he became the Vice President of Education for Colorado Technical University until late in 2010. Along with his doctorate, he holds a Bachelor of Science in Sociology from the University of Southern Colorado in Pueblo and a Master's in Public Administration from the University of Colorado. According to the statement released by the city of Pueblo, Velez was a "pioneer" in creating the Gang Intervention Network.
Velez will start his term on February 16 and will be serving indefinitely.

Last Saturday I got home to amazing warm temps and that made this girl pretty happy. It was late afternoon by the time we got home from the airport so right away we decided it was going to be a firepit night. It's amazing how much my mood improves when we can be outside in warmer weather.
Andy cheats when he starts the fire and puts citronella oil on it. Weirdo.
Blake and Andy were cracking me up- wondering if B is going to stop growing soon. 6′ 3″ is tall enough I think
My beautiful girlie
Blake decided to wash his car
And Hud just wanted the water
He's such a funny (but bad) dog
And cute
Eva would eat fruit add day for every meal if I would let her- right now she has about 3 or 4 loose teeth and two adult teeth that are coming in on the bottom behind her baby teeth. So far she has lost none.
This dog does not know how to chill
I was so happy to be back home hanging by the fire with Blake 🙂 That is a great weekend in my book.

Adam Larsson expects to up production, step into bigger role with Oilers
The one-for-one swap that brought Adam Larsson to Edmonton and sent Taylor Hall to New Jersey caught just about everyone off guard, and the reaction among many was that the Devils had gotten the better of the deal. One reason the general consensus swayed in the favor of New Jersey was that Larsson, 23, had yet to transform into the top-pairing blueliner he was projected to be. But...

My Art Museum Mission
As the #BlackLivesMatter movement increased attention to racial inequity in the U.S., in December 2014 a group of museum professionals published a joint statement highlighting the lack of acknowledgment by most museums to the unrest and struggles in Ferguson, Staten Island, Cleveland, and other cities. Soon after that call to action, Aleia Brown, @aleiabrown, and Adrianne Russell, @adriannerussell, both co-authors of the statement, started #museumsrespondtoferguson, an ongoing open discussion on Twitter that occurs every third Wednesday of the month. The exchanges I have encountered on this virtual forum along with actual conversations with my museum colleagues have reignited my focus on diversity in art museums. The thoughtful words of the beloved Maya Angelou "I am working toward a time when everything gives me joy!" helped me articulate my vision of how museums can promote anti-racism initiatives.
My Art Museum Mission
by La Tanya S. Autry
I am working toward a time when
being black and a curator doesn't elicit surprise the curators, educators, conservators, and directors are of all races, ethnicities, and genders
I am working toward a time when
past and present systems of omission, discrimination, and privilege are admitted, addressed, and resisted
I am working toward a time when
more people realize that works by women and people of color are integral to the social relevancy of institutions
I am working toward a time when
fear of donor disapproval doesn't obstruct progress, education, and inclusion
I am working toward a time when
programming regularly engages diverse communities
I am working toward a time when
art museums operate as sites of dialogue and social justice, places for public conversations about things that fracture society
I am working toward a time when
institutions work as collaborative partners with local community organizations
to improve the lives of oppressed people
I am working toward a time when
art museums are truly centers for all people
My Museum Mission was posted on the PAGE2Ferguson blog salon on Imagining America's website, January 26, 2015.
Re-Thinking Representation: Applying Paulo Freire's Ideas to Memorials
Lately I've been considering how Paulo Freire's Pedagogy of the Oppressed* can help me to study memorials. The book isn't about visual representation and it isn't a typical source for art historians. However, it is prominent in educational literature and many of the author's thoughts apply to the contentious world of visual culture. Freire (1921-1997), a Brazilian educator, argued that a restructured educational system rooted in collaboration, critical reflection paired with organized action, and real-world issues could empower people to fight social oppression.
Of his many important ideas, his perspectives about research have strengthened my interests in inclusive, participatory approaches. Similar to his suggestion that teachers and students work in a dualistic manner (both groups instruct and learn as they critically assess problems), Freire proposes that researchers work as partners with people "who would normally be considered objects of that investigation." (87) He identifies these people as co-investigators and suggests that the researcher include their views in the evaluation process. For Freire and sociologist Maria Edy Ferreira, the purpose of the research shouldn't center on studying people. Instead, researchers should seek to understand people's situation or experiences in the world. (91) To conduct research cooperatively, Freire encourages researchers to focus on understanding through sympathetic observation. This approach forgoes dictating to the participants.
As I discussed in my previous post "Learning through Participation," I employ collaborative, socially based methods for my study of lynching memorials. One of my main challenges involves addressing current criticisms of therapeutic memorials ("victim memorials"). In addition to considering the role of sentimentalization and art historian Kirk Savage's useful historical discussion of "victim memorials,"* I believe Freire's work will help me to reveal the political dimensions. His attention to how oppressed groups can work together to improve their condition will help me to dismantle censures such as "Why are these people getting a monument? Why is their pain more important than the pain of someone else?" Freire's arguments could help to enrich memorial scholarship by identifying the assumptions of these perspectives.
*Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed, London: Penguin Books, 1993, 1970.
*Kirk Savage, Monument Wars: Washington, D.C., the National Mall, and the Transformation of the Memorial Landscape, Berkeley, CA: University of California, 236-244.
Learning through Participation
In my research I'm blending approaches from the fields of memorial culture* and public art* for a holistic perspective as I study how people commemorate lynching violence in the U.S. To uncover social significance I attend memorial events and interview artists and various community members. My direct involvement with these contemporary practices encourages me to also ponder the role of the scholar in the production of culture. When I meet with folks, I realize that my presence and interest in their work may influence their understanding of the memorial process. Because I'm focusing on the social, I also need to indicate my degree of participation and people's reactions to my actions in a thoughtful manner.
A few weeks ago I presented a paper* at the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial Annual Remembrance event in Duluth, Minnesota. Members of the board asked me to address how the memorial operates as a sacred space. This event was my first talk at a memorial site and I was honored to participate in the ceremony. Although I've presented my research at several venues, this occasion posed its own challenges. I couldn't rely on the visual comparison method via PowerPoint that academic art historians often employ. I was outside in the memorial space. So my experience discussing objects for museum visitors proved helpful in this circumstance. I focused on the history of the lynching, the community's present activities, and the physical space of the memorial. The studies of cultural geographer Kenneth Foote* and cultural theorist Marita Sturken" helped me to highlight how the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial functions as hallowed ground.
For the sake of time, I didn't delve into current discussions in memorial studies centered on "victim memorials" or the ambiguities associated with the concept of community. (I will wrestle with those complex issues at a later time.) I aimed to provide a balanced, contextualized assessment. Also, I spoke with reporters about how the Duluth memorial differs from other commemorative practices. While my participation did identify the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial as noteworthy, I tried not to steer any of the committee members' decisions about the memorial. Afterwards, several residents thanked me for providing this overview and specific attention to the spatial aspects of Duluth's memorial.
The process of evolving into a scholar entails identifying one's allegiances, values, and mindset. Through my interdisciplinary orientation, I've realized that I'm not interested in traditional notions of the scholar as someone who tells individuals and communities how they should memorialize persons or events. Instead, I understand my position as providing historical context, demonstrating similarities and differences between memorials, sparking discussions, facilitating the memorial-making processes by helping communities discover related projects, and learning from the actions of communities and my participation in commemorations. For me, research is about collaboration.

Pinning My Inquietudes/Hopes for Art History
Lately I've been revising my Pinterest boards so that they engage key concerns I have about art history. I began using Pinterest, an online customizable set of bulletin boards, last summer when I taught History of Photography. The boards for arth318snapshot served as a resource for my undergraduate students and broader publics. I later started my own artstuffmatters' set of boards. Initially it focused mainly on books about various subject areas. I didn't really do much with it. However, I recently had a "eureka moment" that sparked a different, more passionate direction.
Last fall at the Imagining America October 2012 conference, I heard a presentation that continues to inspire and challenge me. Dr. Marta Vega, Executive Director and Founder of the Caribbean Cultural Center and African Diaspora Institute, centered her address on "inquietudes," things that make one feel ill at ease, in relationships between academia and the wider world. She argued that many academics don't engage community organizations as partners or as higher education institutions. Because they don't value the knowledge and experience of these agencies, these scholars can't actually engage most people. She urged the scholarly sphere to recognize that it is a part of community instead of promoting hierarchical behaviors. If we are serious about civic engagement and creating enduring social change, we need to foster connections between people. We need to make our arts centers inclusive.
These ideas resonated for me because in my work as a graduate student I sometimes feel apprehensive about scholarly research, dissemination methods, and traditional constructions of the discipline. One of my major inquietudes involves issues of inclusion and diversity. When I hear about diversity in art history, it's usually in regards to museums careers. In the academic sphere most of this discussion involves courses in art of non-western cultures. While varied course offerings are very important, we need to make this strategy a part of a system that spans types of art, chronologies, and fields. We need to consider full inclusion and diversity in relation to our research and pedagogical methods as well. We should communicate this focus to our undergraduate and graduate students. (I have encountered more than one art history graduate student who mistakenly believes that diversity-related topics only pertain to modern and contemporary art. One person even told me that race is only a relevant topic for those who study African or African-American art.) Our lack of attention to community and vernacular arts compounds this problem. Additionally, we need to consider how we can encourage people of diverse races and ethnic backgrounds to study and teach art history. The discipline sorely lacks diversity in terms of students and faculty members. Addressing these matters can help us to engage broader publics and demonstrate the significance of our discipline and the humanities.
I have created boards for topics I'd like to see more art historians critically engage – diversity, community arts, public scholarship, digital scholarship, teaching techniques, and image use among others. These boards contain links to resources that I would have loved to know about when I started graduate school. I hope students, instructors, and others interested in the arts find this collection helpful. If you have suggestions for the boards, please let me know through the comment feature here or on Pinterest. As I work to create positive change in the discipline, I'll continue blogging about these inquietudes in future posts because this platform is one way to explore, expand, and celebrate my connection to community.
By the way: While I'm serious about a lot of things, I also have a sense of humor. My boards "Foot Fetish in Sculpture" and "Theory Can Be Fun" are works in progress just because they make me smile.

The much anticipated Resident Evil 5 demo is now available (for everywhere except Germany (sorry guys)) and weighs in at a paltry 473 Mbs.
Once again, go get it now.
