Danny Sullivan - Search Engine Land Author. Widely considered a leading "search engine guru," Danny Sullivan has been helping webmasters, marketers and everyday web users understand how search engines work for nearly 20 years. Danny's expertise about search engines is often sought by the media, and he has been quoted in places like The Wall St. Journal, USA Today, The Los Angeles Times, Forbes, The New Yorker and Newsweek and ABC's Nightline. Danny began covering search engines in late 1995, when he undertook a study of how they indexed web pages. The results were published online as "A Webmaster's Guide To Search Engines," a pioneering effort to answer the many questions site designers and Internet publicists had about search engines.

This site represents a meeting place for my creative work, which includes performance and research components. Much like a theatre space or a classroom where people come together to participate or discover something, I inscribe this digital media as a way of carving out a space, thematically indexing when, where and how dance and computer technology meet and inform each other in my work.

Here you will find a collection of dance images, schematic drawings of performance environments, short statements I have written about choreography as it relates to computer-based technology, collaboration with national and international artists, and the various roles I undertake to gain a deeper understanding of the connections between human-computer interaction and live performance. On this site are web albums containing samples of the work I have been doing over the past 10 years, including performances with both improvised and composed aspects. The chronology page lists the web albums by date. Sid Mohasseb. Who Is? Sizhao Yang.

Bonnie Boswell. Powerbroker Filmmaker Bonnie Boswell on How Her Youth Shaped Her Film | Independent Lens Blog.

Bonnie Boswell at age 14, with her uncle, Whitney Young, Jr. Filmmaker Bonnie Boswell has an unusually close tie to her forthcoming film, The Powerbroker: Whitney Young’s Fight for Civil Rights. Whitney Young, Jr., was her uncle, and his parents helped raise her. We sat down with Boswell to learn more about how her early life influenced her film. (Independent Lens will broadcast The Powerbroker at 10 p.m. Feb. 18. Check local listings.) You didn’t just do a documentary on something that interested you. What was one of their main influences on you? You went from segregated Kentucky to segregated Chicago when you were a girl. Up until that point, the only white person I saw was a doctor in Kentucky, and that was it.

How were you treated by the white kids? In music class, the music teacher played Dixie, and some of the kids in the class stood right up like it was their song. Later, in high school, the kids kind of self-segregated. Did anything your grandparents taught you help you adjust? Richard Matthew, Ph.D. Richard Matthew | School of Social Ecology. Shawn Green. Shawn Green’s Major League Baseball career spanned fifteen seasons with four teams: the Toronto Blue Jays, the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Arizona Diamondbacks, and the New York Mets. During his baseball career, he won numerous accolades including both the American League Gold Glove Award and the Silver Slugger in ’99. He finished in the top ten of voting for league MVP three times and was named the L.A. Sportsman of the Year for his 2002 season. He was a two-time All-Star and holds several major league records, such as the most home runs in a single game with four as well as the most total bases in a single game with 19.

He also holds numerous individual team records with both the Blue Jays and Dodgers, most notably the Dodgers record for home runs in a single season with 49 in 2001. But, statistics tell only part of the story. His path to success was as grounded in philosophical study as in baseball wisdom. Shawn Green Stats. Jack Andraka. Jack Andraka, a 15 year old high school student from Maryland has a vision to make a simple dip stick sensor for the detection of diseases. His invention recently netted him $100,000 at this year’s Intel International Science and Engineering Fair as winner fo the Intel Foundation $75,000 Gordon E. Moore Award and the Google Thinking Big AwardFor the project that addresses a large and seemingly-impossible problem, finding an elegant solution with broad impact. Andraka has developed a novel paper sensor for the early detection of pancreatic cancer and possibly any disease. Driven by a curiosity and passion which emerged from a family tradgedy, Jack thought of diabetes testing via sensor strips and wondered if something like it was possible for cancer diagnosis.

Andraka’s test is a simple dipstick sensor, which was able to detect the presence of pancreatic cancer with 100% accuracy in repeated trials. Jack Andraka.
