An obituary published in The New York Times said that "his fashion and portrait photographs helped define America's image of style, beauty and culture for the last half-century".[1] Early life and education[edit] Photography career[edit] In 1944, Avedon began working as an advertising photographer for a department store, but was quickly endorsed by Alexey Brodovitch, the art director for the fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar.
Lillian Bassman also promoted Avedon's career at Harper's. In 1945 his photographs began appearing in Junior Bazaar and, a year later, in Harper's Bazaar.[1] Avedon was always interested in how portraiture captures the personality and soul of its subject. Cover of Richard Avedon's In the American West photo book He is also distinguished by his large prints, sometimes measuring over three feet in height. In the American West[edit] Exhibitions[edit] Collections[edit] Philippe Starck. Philippe Starck is a French designer[1] who has become widely known since the start of his career in the 1980s[2] for his interior, product, industrial and architectural design work. Career[edit] The son of an aeronautical engineer, Starck studied at the École Camondo in Paris. An inflatable structure he imagined in 1969 was a first incursion into questions of materiality, and an early indicator of Starck's interest in where and how people live.
Starck's iconoclastic designs brought him to the attention of Pierre Cardin who offered him a job as artistic director of his publishing house. A year later he designed the Asahi Beer Hall in Tokyo, a building topped with a golden spermatozoon. This was followed in 1992 by Le Baron Vert office complex in Osaka. Alhondiga, Bilbao, 2010 From 1990, Philippe Starck embarked on another crusade to democratize quality "designer" hotels, beginning with the Paramount in New York.

PSFK - the go-to source for new ideas and inspiration. Top Secret America. Human anatomy. "Physiologies" redirects here. For other uses, see Physiology. The study of the human body involves anatomy and physiology. The human body can show anatomical non-pathological anomalies known as variations which need to be able to be recognised. Physiology focuses on the systems and their organs of the human body and their functions. Many systems and mechanisms interact in order to maintain homeostasis. Structure[edit] The human body has several body cavities the largest of which is the abdominopelvic cavity. Composition[edit] The main elements that compose the human body are shown from most abundant to least abundant. The average adult body contains between 5 and 5½ litres of blood and approximately 10 litres of interstitial fluid. The composition of the human body can be referred to in terms of its water content, elements content, tissue types or material types.
The proportions of the elements of the body can be referred to in terms of the main elements, minor ones and trace elements. Waivers (NHL) Waivers is a National Hockey League (NHL) labor management procedure by which an NHL team makes a professional ice hockey player’s contract and rights available to all other NHL teams. The term "waivers" refers to a concept wherein other NHL teams 'waive' any claim to a player designated for assignment in the AHL or designated for release. The process is typically referred to as 'being placed on waivers.' In the NHL, each player signs what is, or is a variation of, a standard NHL player's contract.
The contract specifies that the team has exclusive rights to the player playing in the NHL. After a player has been designated for assignment, the other 29 NHL teams can put in a claim or waive their claim for that player. When a player clears waivers and is sent down and then is called up again, he does not have to clear waivers to be sent down again unless he has played ten games or has been "up" for 30 days.[5] The 2005 NHL-NHLPA collective bargaining agreement introduced re-entry waivers.
Windows Phone 7: the complete guide. After Windows Phone 7's grand unveiling at Barcelona's Mobile World Congress last month, Microsoft has circled back during GDC and its own MIX10 conference to fill in many of the holes in this story -- in particular, details around the app development ecosystem and how third parties can take full advantage of it have been focal points. Of course, it makes sense: a modern smartphone is only as good as its software catalog, and Redmond's clearly keen to show that it knows how very true that is.
XNA -- the technology that underpins Zune games and a host of Xbox content -- figures prominently into the equation, but Silverlight is a huge, unavoidable component as well, making development for WP7 devices a starkly different experience for studios and independent code monkeys than in versions prior.

Scanadu Raises $2M: “Check Your Body As Often As Your Email” Meet Scanadu, an innovative health tech startup I daresay you’ll be hearing a lot more from in the future. It’s not the easiest of tasks explaining what the company is building at this point, but let’s call it a personal, mobile, auto-diagnostics product – they refer to it as a Medical Tricorder. Founded in January 2011 by a team of entrepreneurs with diverse backgrounds, the roots of Scanadu actually go way back.
One of the company’s founders, and its chief executive officer, is Walter De Brouwer – something of a legend here in Belgian entrepreneurial circles, and beyond. He says he had the basic idea for a personal health monitoring service back in 1999 when he was working at the renowned Starlab research institute, which he jump-started alongside MIT Media Lab founder Nicholas Negroponte. And from watching Star Trek. “Sci-fi stories are business plans in disguise,” De Brouwer tells me, referring to the invention of the mobile phone, which was inspired by the Star Trek communicator.
