“I think the climate in the country was absolutely right for this type of magazine,” Mr. Heiskell suggested spinning off the “People” section of Time magazine into its own publication. One day a call came from Andrew Heiskell, chairman of the company, who said that his wife, Marian Sulzberger Heiskell, a member of the family that controls The New York Times Company, had suggested a new magazine that would focus on personalities. He then went to Time Inc.’s development group to help dream up new magazines.

Stolley rose through the ranks at Life and was assistant managing editor when its last weekly issue was published in 1972. The 8-mm footage of the Kennedy motorcade - one of the earliest instances of a citizen capturing images of an extraordinary event - was once called the most important 26 seconds in celluloid history. While at Life he scored one of the great coups in journalism, acquiring for his magazine the rights to the Zapruder film of the assassination of President John F.

Stolley was a prominent writer and editor at Life magazine, where he covered the civil rights movement in the South and the space race, among other major stories. The cause was heart failure, his family said. Stolley, the founding editor of People magazine, which changed the course of American publishing with its personality-driven approach to journalism and which has long been one of the most successful magazines in the nation’s history, died on June 16 at a hospital in Evanston, Ill. He served as the Chair of International Association of Chinese Professionals in Global Positioning Systems(CPGPS), director of Nordic Institute of Navigation, and chairman of the IEEE International Conference “Ubiquitous Positioning, Indoor Navigation and Location-based Services”.Richard B. Chen is the Editor-in-Chief of “Journal of Global Positioning Systems”, an Associate Editor-in-Chief of “Journal of Navigation” and an editor of “Geospatial Information Science”. Chen has experience in scientific research, product development and management, as well as excellent capabilities of team building and talent cultivation. With the experience in European and American universities, research institutions and multinational companies, Prof. He served as Director of Navigation and Positioning Department of Geodetic Institute of Finland Professor at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi and engineering manager in mobile phone department of Nokia. He has presided and participated in more than 20 scientific research projects funded by the U.S., EU government and enterprises. Chen is now responsible for the National Key Research and Development Program of China and Key Program of National Natural Science Foundation of China, as the project leader and chief scientist. Students guided by him have won the Institute of Navigation (ION) Excellent Student Dissertation award three times and received two international patents. Chen Ruizhi has authored 2 books, 5 book chapters and more than 160 papers.

Chen developed a suite of indoor and outdoor seamless positioning systems based on Android phones. While working in the United States, Prof. Chen’s research had also been selected as a cover story twice by the world’s most famous navigation magazine, “GPS Worlds”. This 3D seamless navigation technology based on smartphones was demonstrated at the Shanghai World Expo Park and was selected for the “The Eleventh Five-Year Plan” International Cooperation Achievement Exhibition of the Ministry of Science and Technology. Meanwhile, a complete technical system for 3D seamless positioning of mobile phones had also been constructed. He had explored and developed a complete set of 3D seamless navigation technology, from data sources to visualization, serving smart phones users.

He’d also established a new indoor positioning system and method based on emerging sensors such as EMG (electromyography)and vision, which opened up a new research direction in the field of personal navigation and positioning. He had proposed a new concept of “mobile phone thinking engine” to explore the innovative technology of mobile phone from IntelliSense to intelligent cognition. Chen has made abundant of outstanding contribution in the field of navigation and positioning. With nearly 30 years of research foundation, Prof. Chen Ruizhi’s research interests mainly include ubiquitous positioning of smartphones and satellite navigation.

from the department of computer science and software engineering, in Helsinki University of Technology, Finland. Ten years later, in 2001, he received his second M.S. degree in Geophysics from the University of Helsinki, Finland in 1991. from the department of engineering measurement, Wuhan Institute of Geodesy and Geomatics in 1985, and the Ph.D. He is currently the Director of LIESMARS in Wuhan University.

Chen Ruizhi is a professor, doctoral supervisor.
