What is Art and Why does it Matter? - "An online magazine that creates a forum for interpretive experimentation and gives a face to the people who make museums a vibrant presence in the world. This magazine is here because we all "know" d that art is important, but do we always know why? Looking at art can provide a much needed refuge for reflection, sympathy, quietude, inspiration, and even ecstasy in this increasingly chaotic world. Looking further can deepen knowledge of cultures and artistic practice, develop and hone observational skills, reveal insights into history that other documents can't, and encourage creative, analytical, and autonomous thinking. We want you to find a way in. And the best way to find a way into anything is to look closely and ask a lot of questions. Enjoy." (Yale University Art Gallery)

News Page Designer - " Many elements go into the hundreds of daily newspapers that are read across the United States each day, and everyone has their favorite section, such as the opinion pieces, world news, and of course, editorial cartoons. While all of these facets seem to receive some sort of peer recognition, relatively little attention is paid to the design of entire pages within each paper. This website, hosted by the Sun Journal in Lewiston, Maine, fills that gap, as it allows news designers to share their work and ideas by posting various page designs online. Visitors to the site can browse through various recently posted pages, such as those designed to pay tribute to the conclusion of the television show Friends or summer travel suggestions. For those already in the field of newspaper and design (or those who would like to be in the future), there is a tip section that contains helpful suggestions on ideas for easing creative blocks, working with designs for smaller papers, and how to use typography effectively. Overall, the site is quite engaging, and will be of interest to those with a broad interest in graphic design." [KMG] <#team> (The Scout Report)

North American Review - "The North American Review was founded in Boston in 1815, moved to New York City in the late 1870s, and was a victim of the onset of WWII, suspending publication in 1940. Its revival was engineered by Robert Dana, at Cornell (Iowa) College, in 1964, with the consent and blessing of the last survivors of the North American Review Corporation. The present-day NAR, which moved to the University of Northern Iowa in December of 1968, is the legal and historical continuation of the pre-war magazine; we date our anniversaries from 1815, and number our volumes from that date (the 1997 volume is number 282). Originally, the magazine carried a strong British flavor, as if thereby to elevate the tastes and cultural consciousness of Americans. As the nineteenth century wore on, the NAR's contents became less and less Brit in tone. Its contributors included Walt Whitman, Henry James, and Andrew Carnegie, it even serialized Joseph Conrad, and the magazine's focus broadened to include current affairs and politics as well as literature. Since the 1960s the NAR has concerned itself with the poem and the short story, and takes a broad view of current North American preoccupations--especially the problems of the environment."
