Morning Musings

This week in words and pictures:

1. The entire Columbia J-school class of 2010 standing on the steps of the Journalism school. Perhaps you can catch my frizzy hair somewhere in there.   J-school photo
2. After three intense weeks of photo and audio training, I produced my first audio slideshow. Final cut pro and SLR cameras are now on my know how to list. It’s not quite NPR or NYT material, but for a girl who doesn’t deal with programs beyond Microsoft word I’d say its not too shabby. My audio slideshow
3. “Who are you to play God?” Disturbing events at a New Orleans hospital in the wake of Katrina. A great example of long term investigative reporting.  Uncovering Katrina
4. Just for fun! Six-word memoirs. A great site for poets and wordsmiths. I liked the love ones, naturally. “Take me for what I am” and “I’ll know when my love comes” and “There’s a place for us, somewhere…” Okay, I’ll stop.  Smithmag
