[US] The Gabriel Cromer Collection / George Eastman Museum Housed at the George Eastman Museum and the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Paris), the Gabriel Cromer Collection is one of the most significant collections of early French photography in the world. The Eastman Museum’s holdings represent the most extensive collection of such materials outside of France and comprise more than six thousand objects, including books, albums, journals, original documents and letters, ephemera, and other printed materials; paintings, drawings, caricatures, silhouettes, and sculpture; all manner of equipment and apparatus; pre-cinema devices; and a considerable number of rare and important photographs. Gabriel Cromer (French, 1873–1934) studied law and began to make photographs while he was a student.

Choosing a song that meets the students’ needs is not always easy, though. Listening for specific information 1.

She did an amazing job adding the highlights and shadows, and we can’t wait to see the finished costume. See a couple more photos after the break. (via Reddit) Krtin Nithiyanandam is tackling Alzheimer and cancer Michael Newington Gray Think back to what you were doing when you were 15 years old, probably trying to get through GCSEs? Surrey-based teenager Krtin Nithiyanandam was developing a test for Alzheimer's disease, that could allow the condition to be diagnosed 10 years before the symptoms first appear. This 'trojan horse' antibody can penetrate the brain and attack neurotoxic proteins in the very first stages of the disease.

Or when energy levels hit a low during a lesson? Or in that lull while the next student gets ready to present, or whatever?
