Google UCSD for Engineering Talent A rollerblading engineering student threaded through a sea of more conservatively attired colleagues, all hoping to line up an interview for an internship or job with any of the 20 corporations participating in a student career fair February 15 at UCSD's Price Center. Wearing a black T-shirt and torn jeans, Scott Perry, a UCSD junior majoring in computer science, looked as if he was on his way to X Games Nine instead of UCSD's eighth annual Disciplines of Engineering Career Fair (DECaF). A black bandana covered chin-length brown hair that Perry plans to donate to Locks of Love, a charity that turns hair into wigs for young cancer patients.

California Researchers Collaborate
With Perlegen Sciences
On Map Of
Human Genetic Variation Across Populations
Computer scientists at two research centers affiliated with the University of California have teamed with biologists from Perlegen Sciences, Inc., to map key genetic signposts across three human populations. Their study - published in the Feb. 18 issue of Science - could make widely accessible the analysis of human variation based on whole-genome data, and speed efforts to pinpoint DNA variations that are associated with disease or with how patients respond differently to drugs.

Controversial Dates Of Biblical Edom Reassessed
In Results From New Archeological Research New archeological research from modern-day Jordan indicates the biblical nation of Edom existed at least as early as the 10th Century B.C., the era of kings David and Solomon, and adds to the controversy over the historical accuracy of the Old Testament. The full results of the 2002 excavation, by a team of international scholars, at the site of Khirat en-Nahas (or "ruins of copper" in Arabic), are reported in the current issue of the British journal Antiquity.

Storytelling with Ira Glass Price Center Ballroom went dark on Saturday evening, Feb. 12, only to be filled with the voice of Ira Glass, radio producer and host of National Public Radio's This American Life. "There's an advantage to not seeing," he said. "There's an intimacy of just hearing someone's voice." As the lights came up, he sat on stage, looked out at the audience and said, "You all look nothing like I expected." More
