برنده جایزه یان پری 2010
جایزه یان پری که ویژه عکاس 24 ساله بود به یک عکاس اهل اسپانیا رسیدA panel of five judges selected Liste's submission not only because of the quality of his portfolio, but the clarity with which he he conveyed the neglect and suffering of his subjects, organizers said in a press release. One of the judges, Sunday Times Magazine director of photography Jon Jones, described Liste's work as "of the highest standard for such a young photographer." Other judges included photographers Don McCullin and Marcus Bleasdale, Foto8 publisher Jon Levy, and Getty Images editor Steve Blogg.
In addition to receiving the monetary prize, Liste will be included automatically on a final list of nominees for the Joop Swart Masterclass in Amsterdam. His project will also be published by the Sunday Times Magazine, and it will be exhibited at the Getty Images Gallery at 46 Eastcastle Street in London from August 16th to 23rd.
The judging committee also recognized Liz Hingley of the United Kingdom as “Highly Commended” and American Matt Eich as “Commended.” Both will receive a prize of £500. Judges also recognized Canadian Ed Ou and Rodrigo Alfaro of Argentina, who received “Honorable Mention,” and “Special Commendation,” respectively.
The scholarship was founded to commemorate the death of Ian Perry, a 24-year-old photojournalist killed on assignment for the Sunday Times during the Romanian Revolution in 1989. The prize is given annually to a photographer who is under 24 years of age or attending a full-time photographic course.

Home Office hands victory to photographers, restricts use of Section 44
In an oral statement, May says that police officers will not be able to use Section 44 stop-and-search powers on individuals. However, Section 44 will remain available to police officers wishing to search vehicles.
The Home Secretary says: "Since last Wednesday, I have sought urgent legal advice and consulted police forces. In order to comply with the judgment – but avoid pre-empting the review of counter-terrorism legislation – I have decided to introduce interim guidelines for the police. I am therefore changing the test for authorisation for the use of section 44 powers from
requiring a search to be ‘expedient’ for the prevention of terrorism, to the stricter test of it
being ‘necessary’ for that purpose. And, most importantly, I am introducing a new suspicion
threshold." MORE . . .
