Canada Day, Small Islands Project Fundraiser

Harry Gruyaert, science stories
14:25

I really like Harry Gruyaert’s photographs in this slideshow. Enjoy it.

I wonder if there is some unspoken rule within most newspapers that prevents them from publishing fun science stories just for the heck of it. Virtually every daily in Canada is located in a city with a university, but you rarely see a science story done by a staff reporter. Here is some science newspaper writing:
From International Herald Tribune a piece on walruses.
And here is a New York Times piece on aging brains.
Toronto Star has a piece on nanoparticles seeping into the environment and our bodies.
And Christian Science Monitor has a piece on Bruce Odland, an ambient noise artist.

Croatian word of the day: znanost science

About me:

Croatian, born 1974
I worked as an interpreter and escort officer for the European Community Monitor Mission in Former Yugoslavia. That experience convinced me that documentary photography has a significant role to play in bringing about positive social change.

After finishing my journalism studies at Mount Royal College in Calgary, Canada, I worked for several Canadian and Croatian newspapers and magazines as a writer and photographer. I am currently freelancing out of Saint John, NB.

SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT
This is my brother's web site. It is a totally different kettle of fish than anything I post here. It’s very creative and, quite frankly, I have no clue how he does it. This is apparently quite applicable stuff and used in everything from film, to entertainment, to gaming industry.
