Roland Zavada to Speak at NID 2010
There is perhaps no facet of the Kennedy Assassination that has polarized researchers more than the authenticity of the Zapruder film. Some believe the Zapruder film to be evidence documenting the assassination of President Kennedy; some believe it to be evidence of alteration and a distortion of the assassination event. In August 1997 the Eastman Kodak Company met with the Assassination Records Review Board and offered the services of a retired Kodak film chemist who was formerly Kodak's preeminent 8 mm film expert to look at the controversial film. That expert was Roland Zavada. Mr. Zavada concluded that the film was an "in camera original" and that any alleged alterations were not feasible. Zavada, now retired as a Standards Director for Imaging Technologies, from Eastman Kodak in March 1990. His background included product engineer development responsibilities to introduce KODACHROME II films, Chairman of the Society of Motion Picture and television Engineers (SMPTE) 16&8 Standards Committee during the transition from 16 to 18 fps velocity for silent movie films and four terms as SMPTE Engineering Vice President. A Fellow of four technical societies, Mr. Zavada received many awards for his technical achievements including being elected as a Life member of the Foundation of Motion Picture Pioneers Inc. Author of the Kodak report to the ARRB. November in Dallas 2010 attendees will get to hear his reasoning first hand as he discusses how he reached that conclusion.

Don Thomas Presenting at NID 2010
Accoustical Evidence in the Kennedy Assassination
Don Thomas, Ph.D will be presenting new information and discussing his book, "Hear No Evil". A scientist with the U.S. federal government, Thomas received his doctorate from the School of Agriculture at the University of Missouri in 1990 and has held post-doctoral appointments at the University of Arizona and the University of Nebraska. He is currently President of the Coleopterists Society and a subject editor for the Annals of the Entomological Society of America. Thomas has authored or co-authored more than 100 scientific publications, including books and book chapters in the field of entomology. Dr. Thomas garnered international attention in 2001 for an article published in the British forensic journal Science & Justice entitled, "Acoustical Evidence in the Kennedy Assassination Revisited."

G. Paul Chambers
Author of Head Shot: The Science Behind the JFK Assassination
 G. Paul Chambers, PhD (La Plata, MD), is a contractor with the NASA Goddard Optics Branch and with Bellatrix, Inc. Formerly, he worked as the supervisory research physicist for the Energetic Materials and Detonation Science Department of the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Maryland and as a research physicist with the Condensed Matter and Radiation Sciences Division of the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, DC.
After more than four decades and scores of books, documentaries, and films on the subject, what more can be said about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy? A great deal, according to physicist and ballistics expert Dr. G. Paul Chambers. In this provocative, rigorously researched book, Chambers presents evidence and compelling arguments that will make you rethink the entire sequence of terrible events on that traumatic day in Dallas.
 Drawing on his fifteen years experience as an experimental physicist for the US Navy, Chambers demonstrates that the commonly accepted view of the assassination is fundamentally flawed from a scientific perspective. The physics behind lone-gunmen theories is not only wrong, says Chambers, but frankly impossible. Chambers devotes separate chapters to the Warren Commission, challenges to the single-bullet theory, the witnesses, how science arrives at the truth, the medical and acoustic evidence, the Zapruder film, and convincing evidence for at least a second rifleman in Dealey Plaza.

A Photographer's Story: Bob Jackson and the Kennedy Assassination
Sixth Floor Museum features of the work of Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist
On Friday, November 22, 1963, newspaper photographer Bob Jackson was assigned to photograph President John F. Kennedy's visit to Dallas for The Dallas Times Herald. What began as an exciting assignment for the young photographer became one of the largest, most tumultuous news events of the twentieth century-with Jackson, camera in hand, present at the center of much of the activity. More than four decades later his black and white images provide a unique personal perspective of the events at Love Field, along the motorcade route, at Parkland Memorial Hospital and at Dallas police headquarters, where he photographed Jack Ruby fatally shooting accused presidential assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. The exhibit is showing through October 17, 2010. Read more here.
