LifeHacker - The Best Tools to Archive Web Pages There's a push to make photoshopped models in ads illegal In 2011, British member of parliament Jo Swinson ordered Lancôme to take down London billboard ads featuring Photoshopped images of famous women — Julia Roberts and Christy Turlington. The altered images, she said, were “not representative of the results the products could achieve” and gave women unrealistic and false expectations of what women should look like. Back in the U.S., the move caught the eye of Seth Matlins, who had just left his big marketing job as CMO of Live Nation to start Feel More Better, a site to help empower girls and women to be happy and healthy. Initially moved to write an opinion piece about Swinson’s actions, Matlins decided to go a step further. “I asked myself the question if the British government is doing that, who is doing that here? Over the past three years, Matlins has been working to raise awareness of the ad industry’s harmful photo-manipulation practices. Can you explain what exactly the act is? via Change.org

Few studies explore when ideas at the domestic level matter in foreign policy change. I propose a constructivist account for policy change that emphasizes not only ideas but also material interests as exogenous factors constituted within domestic structures. : Special Issue - Revised Deadline - Call for Papers SPECIAL ISSUE: Critical Perspectives on Innovation, Technology and Learning for Development Guest Editor: Professor Paul Prinsloo Learning and its contribution to development, whether in open and distance learning, or other educational delivery modes (formal, informal or post-formal) can be explored through many possible lenses, which do not only point to a variety of research designs and methodologies, but also to different philosophical and ideological approaches. While there are many journals dedicated to learning, curriculum development, assessment, and so forth, and others dedicated to issues regarding development; the JL4D specifically engages with the nexus between learning and development. This special issue will provide a platform to engage with firstly, the notion of innovation in learning in the context of, and in relation to socioeconomic and human development; and secondly, critically engage with broader claims and practices in the context of learning for development.
