New Year’s resolutions can help us to refocus our energies. And better ourselves.

Hi. I'm John Clay. I’d like to take a few moments to share with you my personal goals for 1999.

• by March
  smooth pursuit; head/eye coordination; bring hands midline;
  body stability, leaning, resting; sound localization.
• by June
  face pop-outs; gesture recognition; own hand tracking;
  batting static objects; human voice extraction.
• by September
  Ullman-esque visual routines; facial gesture recognition;
  body-based metaphors; voice/face association; voice turn taking.
• by December
  physical schema based object recognition; body motion
  recognition; body mimicry; proto language; imagination.

Then it’s Happy New Year 2000!
HELLO to a NEW ME! And a whole new life!

I hope you’ll take a moment today. To think about how you can turn each New Year.

Into a NEW YOU!
