Description: Thomas Smillie was the Smithsonian’s first photographer and curator of photography. He and his studio staff were responsible for collecting and duplicating images brought back by scientists and curators traveling on business in other cities throughout the world, many of which often described the structures of other museums.
Creator/Photographer: Thomas Smillie
Birth Date: 1843
Death Date: 1917
Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1843, Thomas William Smillie immigrated to the United States with his family when he five years old. After studying chemistry and medicine at Georgetown University, he took a job as a photographer at the Smithsonian Institution, where he stayed for nearly fifty years until his death in 1917. Smillie’s duties and accomplishments at the Smithsonian were vast: he documented important events and research trips, photographed the museum’s installations and specimens, created reproductions for use as printing illustrations, performed chemical experiments for Smithsonian scientific researchers, and later acted as the head and curator of the photography lab. Smillie’s documentation of each Smithsonian exhibition and installation resulted in an informal record of all of the institution’s art and artifacts. In 1913 Smillie mounted an exhibition on the history of photography to showcase the remarkable advancements that had been made in the field but which he feared had already been forgotten.
Medium: Cyanotype
Culture: American

Scientific Culture and the Making of the Industrial West
Scientific Culture and the Making of the Industrial West
As more historians acknowledge the central significance of science and technology in the making of the first Industrial Revolution, the need for a good, general history of the achievements of the Scientific Revolution has grown. Scientific Culture and The Making of the Industrial West explains this historical process by looking at how and why scientific knowledge became such an integral part of the culture of Europe. Seeking to understand the cultural origins of the Industrial Revolution of the eighteenth century, this text first looks at the scientific culture of the seventeenth century, focusing not only on England but following through with a study of the history of science and technology in France, the Netherlands, and Germany. Comparative in structure, this text explains why England was so much more successful at this transition than its continental counterparts. It also integrates science with worldly concerns, focusing mainly on the entrepreneurs and engineers who possessed scientific insight and who were eager to profit from its advantages, demonstrating that during the mid-seventeenth century, British science was presented within an ideological framework that encouraged material prosperity. Readable summaries of the major scientific achievements are included to better communicate the central innovations of the period, and recent scholarship is added to help enhance the discussion of the integration of science into Western culture. Blending the history of science and technology with cultural history, this text is ideal for early modern European history courses, as well as for courses in cultural studies and the history of science.

Alternative Pathways in Science and Industry: Activism, Innovation, and the Environment in an Era of Globalization (Urban and Industrial Environments)
Winner, 2009 Robert K. Merton Book Award given by the American Sociological Association Section on Science, Knowledge, and Technology.
In Alternative Pathways in Science and Industry, David Hess examines how social movements and other forms of activism affect innovation in science, technology, and industry. Synthesizing and extending work in social studies of science and technology, social movements, and globalization, Hess explores the interaction of grassroots environmental action and mainstream industry and offers a conceptual framework for understanding it.
Hess proposes a theory of scientific and technological change that considers the roles of both industry and consumers in setting the research agenda in science and technology, and identifies alternative pathways by which social movements can influence scientific and technological innovation. He analyzes four of these pathways: industrial opposition movements organized against targeted technologies (as in the campaign against nuclear energy); technology- and product-oriented movements, which press for alternatives (as does the organic food movement); localism, which promotes local ownership (as in “buy local” campaigns); and access pathways, which support a more equitable distribution of resources. Within each pathway, Hess examines reforms in five areas: agriculture, energy, waste and manufacturing, infrastructure, and finance. Hess’s theoretical argument and the empirical evidence he presents demonstrate the complex pattern of incorporation (of grassroots innovations) and transformation (of alternative ownership structures and the alternative products themselves) that has characterized the relationship of industry and activism. His analysis of alternative pathways to change suggests how economic organizations could shift to a more just and sustainable course.Winner, 2009 Robert K.

Remote Working Kit Demo
Image by Gray Marchiori-Simpson
You may remember that previously I did a sketch showing a design for a small office network for non-heavy applications. The setup would be ideal for say… an estate agency, but with a sufficiently powerful server or in an advanced network, serverS – the basic platform could be used by pretty much any level of organisation, even up to marketing and graphics design agencies running photoshop over a large thin client display.
This set of kit here is a neat demonstration of such a system in action on the remote end. The oblong device at the front is a 3 Mobile 3G hotspot or MiFi, the Huawei E586 to be exact. Connected to the internet over this device is an iPad for accessing the thin client desktop remotely, in this case running on a Mac OS X server in my home. Frankly, given that almost all desktop screens are now widescreen rather than 4:3, you’d likely be better off with an Android tablet or older linux ultraportable/netbook; at least in hardware.
Software side this is pretty easy. I’m running an iPad app called ‘iSSH’, which has the ability to connect to both VNC and RDP routed through a secure shell tunnel on my web/access server. This gives the ability to connect to pretty much any terminal server, whether Windows, Mac or other.
Finally, the top left gadget is a Vocera Communications Badge. The problem with carrying a large device like an iPad or thin client laptop is that it is impractically large for communicating by voice; although far superior than a smartphone for pretty much every other task. The Vocera Communications Badge serves as an example of a voice over IP handset that suddenly becomes a practical option for mobile communication. Using a VoIP phone makes it possible to directly route any calls from a public PBX number through to the wifi handset and vice versa, removing call costs for internal and IP traffic and allowing easy access to control who can and cannot get in touch. Vocera, as a wearable one-touch device serves as a particularly neat example of what becomes possible by embracing portable technology and self-hosted centralised servers. Users have efficient and up-to-date devices for data access and communications, management have reduced costs to equip staff and customers have quick and professional service with all data available within seconds whether walking into the office at 8:30am or meeting employees working on the move.
gear
Image by ezola
so I’ve settled into some sort of routine. I’ve added some gear, sent some back home, and even donated a few items to the country of india.
after this episode, I didn’t have any trouble remembering to bring a travel wallet and in fact I brought two travel wallets. I carry one of them around and keep the other one in my luggage. The latter contains a copy of my passport, an additional credit card, some cash, and accumulated receipts.
I brought two medium apple store plastic bags. these bags are actually double-lined plastic and very sturdy while being waterproof and dirty laundry proof.
when I decided to take a laptop to india, I looked into ways to secure it and purchased a pacsafe laptop safe, designed to fit inside a backpack. As an afterthought, since I was already on the website, I purchased their smaller safe for documents and other small items. The laptop safe I did away with after a few days and the small safe I love. I hang it on a wardrobe bar and cover it with a shirt or pants. Whether or not this truly offers protection, it gives me peace of mind. I don’t use the wimpy lock supplied; the master lock I brought separately.
the orange pouch attaches to my daypack/shoulder bag via carabiner and holds a high-tech ultra-thin microfiber towel that dries very quickly. I use this to dry off my face as most bathrooms do not offer amenities for this purpose.
headlamp is crucial.
spare earbuds and filters for my headphones.
Etymotic ER-4P headphones .
ipod USB cable.
Sony memorystick card reader attached to USB extension cable.
Sony vaio netbook laptop.
Reliance netconnect mobile broadband USB stick.
8 GB USB keydrive.
mobile phone, purchased in mumbai for with 550 rupees of airtime which I haven’t made a dent in. very useful. with charger.
80 GB ipod.
camera battery charger with spare battery.
outlet adaptor. I only use this for the camera battery charger.
earplugs. also crucial. india is noisy.
30% DEET.
Atovaquone/proguanil (Malarone) tablets for malaria treatment. Not taking malaria prophylaxis, will self-treat if I develop the symptoms.
Rifaximin (Xifaxan) tablets for prevention of traveller’s diarrhea. I take one 200 mg tablet twice per day.
epipen.
watch.
mosquito net.
sleepsack. like a sleeping bag, but just a sheet.
ethernet cable. haven’t used this. thinking about discarding it.
hat with mosquito netting that covers face.
umbrella. have not used. thinking about discarding.

Laptops, Netbooks or Tablets for Travelers?
Laptops, Netbooks or Tablets for Travelers? – as part of the expert series by GeoBeats. When you decide what kind of electronics to bring with you for traveling, first of all I can say that I bring a lot of electronics while traveling. So I typically have a laptop, camera, lenses, back-up drives. However for the average traveler I would say if you want to stay in touch with e-mail, surf the net, probably the best thing to do is to get a Netbook. They are cheap, so it does not bother you as much if maybe they get damaged or stolen, which can happen. But I would say the cheapness in the size really are a big advantage. The other thing to consider is, obviously you can check your e-mail and surf the internet on it and, you know, hook up to wireless connections but at the same time what the netbook has is a nice USB connection. So most travelers, most average travelers are probably going to take point and shoot camera, shoot pictures on the trip and they should download them. Hopefully that night, just, you know, because it provides back-up. And the best way to do that is through USB port for the most part. So that is probably why I would recommend a netbook for the best thing to bring as far as electronics for the average traveler.

2GB microSD w/2 Adapters Useful in multiple devices, Kingston’s microSD card with an extra miniSD and full-size SD adapter is a simple and practical, cross-platform storage solution. The adapters transform the microSD card into either a miniSD or full-size SD card, making it extremely versatile.
With a 2 GB storage capacity, the microSD card alone provides plenty of removable space for music, games, ringtones, photos, movies, and other applications on mobile phones. Slip the microSD card into the miniSD adapter, and it transforms into a miniSD storage card for personal media players, smartphones, MP3 players, or other miniSD-enabled devices.
Use the adapter to capture photos from your digital camera by making the microSD a full-size SD card, and then view images with the Kingston SD-enabled readers or on your TV’s SD slot. When the SD adapter is used with the microSD card, it quickly and easily saves files on a notebook computer with a full-size SD slot.
The combination of a microSD card and multiple adapters means users can pack light and do more with a single card, interchanging it with many devices. The Kingston MicroSD Card comes with a lifetime limited warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can the SG5 give me the distance to the pin?
A: The SkyCaddie, using the IntelliGreen graphics found on our professionally recorded SkyCourses, provides more information than just the distance to the pin. Once the line of play is selected on the graphical green outline, it provides the minimum carry to get on the green, the maximum limit you have to the back of the green, plus you can adjust to obtain the third distance of the approximate flag location. All three distances are provided simultaneously from any direction as you approach the green. You can then frame your shot in a much larger target area and select the best club. You will hit more greens and have shorter putts than a single number can provide.
