2 - 3:30 pm
Neely Lobby - GT Lobby
Speaker: Brian Stone
Assoc. Professor
City and Regional Planning Program
Georgia Tech College of Architecture
Title: Are cities warming faster than the planet as a whole?
Abstract: How rapidly are large U.S. cities like Atlanta warming and what steps can be taken to manage climate change in urban areas?  This talk will explore the methods employed to measure urban and global temperature trends and document the rate of temperature change within 50 of the most populous U.S. metropolitan areas between 1950 and 2000. The distinction between the urban and global mechanisms of warming will be considered as part of a more general discussion of climate change management in cities.
This presentation is free and open to all!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[&#8220;Developed by The MIT Press, MIT CogNet is an online location for the brain and cognitive science community scientific research and interchange. Since breaking ground in 2000, MIT CogNet has become an essential resource for those interested in cutting-edge primary research across the range of fields concerned with understanding the nature of the human mind.&#8221;
To access Cognet, go to the Library&#8217;s top page, http://www.library.gatech.edu/.  Under &#8220;search and find&#8221; click on &#8220;articles (databases)&#8221;.  At that point, you can either click on &#8220;c&#8221; in the alphabetical list and scroll down to &#8220;Cognet&#8221;, or choose to browse databases by subject and choose &#8220;Psychology and Cognitive Science Resources&#8221;, and then choose Cognet.

March 4, 2008
12 " 1:30 pm
Neely Lobby
Speaker:  Jason Freeman , D.M.A. Assistant Professor - Music Department - College of Architecture
Title:
Composer, Performer, Listener 
Abstract:
Even as social networking, multi-player gaming, and collaborative content creation become increasingly important in our lives, concert musical performance continues to follow a model in which the audience remains passive, with little connection to the composer, to the performers, or to each other. This Talk will explore how technology can transform the concert experience by inviting the audience to shape the music as it is performed or by engaging audiences in personalized musical experiences online.
This presentation is free and open to all!View Poster

Dear GALILEO Users, 
EBSCO databases are accessible again. EBSCO has reported that power has  been restored to their ISP&#8217;s server room and all EBSCO databases are now  accessible.
Thanks for your patience while this problem was worked out.
-Katie 
2:38 pm: The following is the latest from EBSCO:
Power Outage Issue traced back to 1 Summer Street Boston. Address has
major internet connections and as a result of subsequent alternate
routing, some customers may still be experiencing connection issues to
EBSCOhost Services. We are working with our ISPs as a top priority to
resolve.

&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;
Due to a power outage at EBSCO, EBSCOhost databases are either unavailable or very slow in response.  We&#8217;ll post an update when there is more info. about this.
_________________
Dear GALILEO Users,
It seems that a major power outage in Ipswich, Mass. has caused a disruption in EBSCOhost&#8217;s internet connectivity. For the short term, slow access to EBSCOhost databases is expected.
If you have any questions or need more information, please use GALILEO&#8217;s Contact Us feature or contact OIIT Customer Services at helpdesk@usg.edu.
GALILEO announcements and status updates are available at http://www.usg.edu/galileo/status/.  Information about the GALILEO mailing list is available at http://www.usg.edu/galileo/about/news/list.phtml
Please encourage others at your institution to subscribe.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Did you know the Library has over 270 databases that help identify the best research resources?  Unlike search engines that perform a general search of the web, these databases are quality-controlled so that their results are reputable and timely.  It is also a good idea to verify information in more than one source.  Encyclopedias, for example, give a great overview of a topic but are not considered scholarly sources.  This is especially true of Wikipedia which can be edited by almost anyone.  Ask a librarian to help you identify the highest quality research resources in your field.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Several of the Librarys over 240 databases are good sources for articles on animation.  ACM Digital Library is one for your consideration.  It offers the full text of articles from ACMs journals, newsletters, articles, and conference proceedings.  ACM, or the Association for Computing Machinery, is the top professional organization in the Computer Science field.  Animators might particularly be interested in articles from the journal ACM SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics.  SIGGRAPH is the ACM Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques.
