One Class, One Day_ TV Journalism.m4v From the moment students pile into Susan Walkers Wednesday morning television newsroom class between 8 and 9 am, the clock is ticking. Some are responsible for editing video clips, others will report and write news stories, a select few will appear on camera, but one thing they all share: come noon, they go live.

H1N1 Lightens Up: An encouraging decline in cases, here and nationally In the video above, after realizing that dogs, even mascots, can come down with flu, Rhett learns what to do. The number of Boston University students living in isolation because of a diagnosis of influenza-like illness (ILI) has dropped to four, according to Peter Fiedler, vice president for administrative services and chairman of the Universitys H1N1 Task Force. That number is down from a high of 24 in mid-October. The drop mimics a nationwide decline in the number of visits to doctors for ... From: BUToday Views: 33 0 ratings Time: 02:14 More in Education

BU Abroad: Touching the Sky in Tiputini For Nathan, it wasn't what he found at the Tiputini Biodiversity Station that had an impact on him as much as what he couldn't find. My time in the jungle made me realize how much of the natural world we don't see on a daily basis, he says, and how much more there is that we wont see. Nathan spent last spring in Ecuador on the Quito Language and Liberal Arts Program.

Silent, and Excellent, Teachers
Silent, and Excellent, Teachers This year, teams of eight first-year medical students are taking part in an annual rite of passage: gross anatomy. They are dissecting human bodies donated through bus anatomical gift program, familiarizing themselves with skin, muscles, organs, and bones in a way no textbook could match. Robert Bouchie (SMG92), bus anatomical gift coordinator and anatomy lab manager, considers medical cadavers an aspiring doctors greatest teacher — and the embodiment of selflessness on the part of the donor ...

Good Morning Dream Job: Brandon Bodow has a talent for finding talent Two years ago, Brandon Bodow noticed a fair amount of chatter on music blogs about a singer named Ingrid Michaelson. Even though Michaelson was not signed to a major label, Bodow, then a producer at Good Morning America, decided that so many bloggers couldnt be wrong and invited her on the show. These days, Michaelsons songs are being heard in some strange and wonderful places, like the popular TV series Greys Anatomy, The Hills, and One Tree Hill, and her self-released album Everybody ...

Human Race Machine: Blending Faces and Races
David Flaxer steps into what looks like a photo booth in the basement of the George Sherman Union and sits down. When his face appears on the computer screen in front of him, Bruna Maia, rotating a joystick, places a cursor over the edges of his eyes, nose, mouth, and chin. With a few clicks, she stores his features in the computer, and the morphing process begins. The booth, called the Human Race Machine, takes portraits of human faces and then alters them so that participants like Flaxer (SHA11) can see themselves as Asian, black, white, Hispanic, Indian, and Middle Eastern. The booth, stationed at the Howard Thurman Center this week, has attracted more than 200 curious participants. The Human Race Machine was inspired by the fact that the DNA of any two humans is 99.97 percent identical, says author and photographer Nancy Burson, who developed the machine in collaboration with software engineers at MIT to show people how they are inextricably linked. Appearing at museums and universities and on The Oprah Winfrey Show, it is used an educational tool, spawning dialogue about race and identity. Burson also has a deeper, more ominous message: for good or for bad, looks can be altered by technology. She prefers using it for good and has sold the rights to a similar technology, the Age Machine, to the FBI, which uses it to create age progression images to find missing children. The Human Race Machine was brought to campus by Boston Universitys Hug Dont Hate, a grassroots, peace-building student organization, to promote discussion and understanding. Organization president Maia (CAS10) urges people to question the social constructs associated with race and reach for common ground. Its important for people to recognize theres only one race — the human race. For more Boston University news and videos, check out http://today.bu.edu

Parabolic Pumpkins: The fifth annual Pumpkin Drop demonstrates that gravity still rules
On October 30, the College of Arts & Sciences physics department hosted its 5th annual Pumpkin Drop, causing an orange mess, providing entertainment, and maintaining tradition. The ritual involves dropping more than 30 pumpkins filled with substances from pudding to paint from the roof of the Metcalf Science Center onto the plaza 70 feet below. Its also an educational lesson in parabolic trajectory and gravitation. Physics research associate Elly Huang correctly guessed the weight of the largest pumpkin dropped at 66 pounds; its guts and shards were flung more than 40 feet from where it landed. Getting a start on weekend plans, students and staff also competed for best Halloween costume. First place was awarded to Jason St. John (GRS11), who appeared as the doctor. Second prize went to Andrea Welsh (CAS11), who dressed as Michael the Archangel, with feathered white wings. Third prize was split between Adam Avakian (GRS14) as inventor Nikola Tesla and Caesar (the dog) as a miniature chariot. Weve studied numerous principles, such as Galileos experiment of dropping large and small mass objects, seeing how they fall in the same parabolic trajectory, said William Skocpol, a CAS professor of physics. This year, the smashing of all these materials provided some interesting studies in materials physics, he said, and it looked like we discovered a room temperature, superconducting material — also known as baking soda and water combined with pumpkin mush. Pumpkin pushing device in hand, Skocpol announced, Its been another successful implementation of this tradition, and I hope it goes on until I can pass the pusher onto someone else.
