Soros in Retreat: Billionaire's University to move from Budapest to Vienna
Author: Thema Newsroom
Prime Minister Orbán has denounced Soros's influence on the migration policies of the European Union
After a sustained campaign against the influence of left-wing billionaire George Soros by the Hungarian government, Soros's Central European University has announced its plans to move from Budapest to Vienna.
The Central European University (CEU) has come under fire from the Hungarian government which had previously claimed it was unfair that the institution was allowed to give out both Hungarian and U.S. diplomas while not operating a campus in the USA.
Now, the university has announced that it has plans to leave Budapest and move to neighbouring Austria where a new campus will be set up, Swedish radio broadcaster Sveriges Radio reports.
Éva Fodor, Deputy Rector at CEU said that the university had already signed an agreement with a landlord in Vienna but some were still hopeful the university would not have to move as the administration had set up a branch in New York state, as requested by the Hungarian government.
Hungary has yet to approve the move by the CEU according to Fodor who said: "If the government still has not signed this agreement in mid-June, then we will start planning to move the entire university to Vienna."
"It's hard to recruit new staff when we can not even tell where their workplace will be," Fodor added.
At a press conference earlier this week, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said the government had yet to make a final decision on the fate of the university.
The planned move comes just after Mr. Orbán and his Fidesz party won a massive two-thirds majority in the Hungarian parliament allowing them to put forward constitutional changes.
A major pillar of the Fidesz election campaign was directed at the influence of foreign NGOs, many of which are part of the network of Soros and his Open Society Foundations.
Prime Minister Orbán has denounced Soros's influence on the migration policies of the European Union claiming that the "Soros Plan" would see millions of migrants enter Europe.
"The Soros network has an extensive sphere of influence within the European Parliament and other EU bodies," Mr. Orbán said last October and added: "Its aim is to build a Europe of mixed population and to condemn the Hungarian government for opposing their view on migration."

Subaru Delivers Warmth to Cardinal Glennon – Debbie K
On Monday June 24th, the Gateway Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society along with Phillip Dean and Matthew Kuhn of Dean Team Subaru had the pleasure of delivering 80 blankets, 10 craft kits and messages of hope to the patient staff at Cardinal Glennon. Ryan Jennings, Community Outreach Coordinator at Cardinal Glennon, accepted the generous delivery on behalf of the young patients at the hospital. LLS is proud to partner with Subaru to spread hope, love and warmth to those fighting cancer, across the country and right here in the St. Louis community.
Subaru Helps Children Reach Their Full Potential – Chris K
Children need hope, understanding, and compassion to learn and reach their full potential. St. Louis Learning Disabilities Association (LDA) helps children by giving them the support and education necessary to succeed. Dean Team Subaru has partnered with St. Louis LDA for the last 7 years, and during that time we have received a total of $89,693.25 in contributions from Subaru of America. With Subaru's generosity, we have nearly doubled our interactions through our programs since 2013. In 2018, we had 50,546 interactions with 7,612 children, parents, and educators—helping children discover their strengths, overcome obstacles to learning, and reach their full potential both personally and academically. St. Louis LDA also provided $334,013 in services to the community through need-based financial aid and reduced rates. Dean Team Subaru's partnership has made it possible for hundreds of students to get the help they need through programs such as Personalized Tutoring and Cognitive Educational Evaluations. One parent recently shared, "My son has gained so much self-esteem, enjoys learning new things, and is so much more focused on homework. I've seen so much growth in him and his attitude and ability with school. Thank you!" A student remarked, "St. Louis LDA has given me skills to study and organize. Tutoring helps me absorb all of the information I need to understand concepts well. It is a great program, and if anyone ever needs extra help, LDA is the place to go!" We are so grateful to Dean Team and Subaru of America for helping St. Louis area children learn, develop, and achieve!
Subaru & LLS Deliver Blankets to Cardinal Glennon – Debbie K
Matt Kuhn and Phillip Dean, Dean Team Subaru, met Debbie Kersting, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), at Cardinal Glennon Hospital to deliver blankets for young cancer patients on Monday, June 18th. Ryan Jennings, of the Cardinal Glennon Foundation, greeted everyone and graciously accepted the delivery on behalf of the hospital. While the group was not able to deliver the blankets directly to the patients, they had an informative and meaningful conversation about the value of the Subaru Loves to Care Program and it's alignment with the mission of LLS. Thank you Dean Team Subaru for sharing the love and providing warm blankets to the children of Cardinal Glennon!
GATEWAY LLS teams up with DEAN TEAM SUBARU – Ruth D
On June 26, 2017, Dean Team Subaru drove 2 new Subaru Outbacks to the front door of SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital in St Louis, MO filled to the brim with cases of comfy blankets and fun craft kits! LLS Gateway Exec Dir, Debbie Kersting, and other LLS staff met Matthew Kuhn, Subaru Sales Mgr, Molly Dean-Newberry, Customer Relation Mgr, and Dana Anschutz, Office Mgr when they arrived, ready to spread warmth, love, and care! Cardinal Glennon staff, Aleeza and Allyson joined us and led our wagon train to the Costas Center. After unloading cases containing 80 blankets and 10 kits, we were treated to a tour of the facility. We were immediately impressed with the underwater themed oasis inpatient cancer unit! The Costas Center provides a comfortable setting for children to receive prolonged treatments, without having to be admitted to the hospital. The craft kits will definitely come in handy at the art/classroom. Gateway LLS has a special spot in our hearts for Cardinal Glennon, 3 of our honored heroes this year are patients there. Matthew gave Aleeza 25 care cards, bracelets, and extra Subaru items for the patients. We were all thanked numerous times by the staff and we thanked them for all they do every single day. Aleeza, Cardinal Glennon Social Worker/Case Mgr said, "We are so fortunate to receive such a generous donation from Subaru. Practical gifts such as these make hospital stays a little more comfortable for our courageous patients."
Another huge THANK YOU to our friends at Subaru! – Jen M
Subaru has come through once again! "We love that Subaru demonstrates their dedication to doing right by the environment every day. For more than ten years now, Subaru has been successfully maintaining a "zero-landfill" policy in their manufacturing plants, making Subaru a true leader in the auto industry when it comes to sustainability. That's exciting and important, but Subaru hasn't stopped there! Subaru has extended their zero-landfill initiative beyond their own walls and into the communities they serve." For another year, Subaru is helping to provide and promote zero-waste efforts at our largest annual event, The St. Louis Earth Day Festival. As a small, nonprofit organization, Subaru's sponsorship is indispensible. Not only does Subaru's partnership support waste-reduction services like recycling and composting, the assistance they provide helps make this large event possible for the St. Louis community. The mission of the St. Louis Earth Day Festival is to advance sustainability in the region through celebration, education and action. This fun, family-friendly event will take place on Sunday, April 24th, 2016 in Forest Park. Thanks again, Subaru! We look forward to seeing you there! www.stlouisearthday.org
Howl-O-Ween Trunk or Treat at Dean Team Subaru! – Carrie W
Dean Team Subaru in Ballwin, MO (a suburb of St. Louis) partnered with Open Door Animal Sanctuary to host our first annual Howl-O-Ween Trunk or Treat on Friday night, October 30th, 2015. For a minimum of a $5 donation, participants could bring their dogs in their halloween costumes and fill up a bag of dog goodies (treats, toys and bones) from the trunks of new Subarus on display. The dogs also were able to play "bobbing for bones" and sniff for good smells in the pumpkin patch. We also held a costume contest for the over 50 dogs who participated with prizes (pet store gift cards) donated by the Dean Team and sold raffle tickets for dog goody baskets. The event made $650 for our dogs and cats at our shelter ($400 in donations and $250 from the Dean Team). We loved partnering on this fun event and plan to repeat it again next year and hold an adoption event in the Spring of 2016. Thank you to the Dean Team!
2014 Share The Love – Chris K
Subaru's commitment to helping make education accessible to everyone perfectly aligns with the mission of the St. Louis Learning Disabilities Association (LDA) to bring hope, understanding and compassion to children so that they can reach their full potential. Through specialized services such as one-on-one tutoring, family advocacy and early childhood outreach, St. Louis LDA puts practical tools in the hands of children, teachers and parents to overcome learning disorders and tap into each child's natural intelligence, enabling them to flourish both academically and personally. In 2014, with Subaru's help, St. Louis LDA provided over $307,000 worth of free and reduced-rate services so that the kids most in need of educational and developmental support can become independent, confident learners and succeed, not only in the classroom, but for a lifetime. On behalf of these children and their families, we would like to thank Dean Team Subaru for their support through the annual Share the Love event. Subaru helps St. Louis LDA make a difference for thousands of kids in the St. Louis community! To learn more about St. Louis LDA, visit www.ldastl.org.
Subaru Supports Zero Waste at Earth Day – Cassandra H
Subaru has a great reputation for making cars that support healthy and sustainable lifestyles, so when they approached us with an interest in sponsoring the Earth Day Festival, we knew it would be a great fit! Partnering with Subaru and area dealers has shown us how they have earned their reputation. Subaru will be supporting the zero-waste effort at the Earth Day Festival, where we implement numerous strategies, including working with vendors, volunteers and attendees to make sure all possible event waste is diverted from the landfill through reducing, reusing, recycling, and composting. With Subaru's support, St. Louis Earth Day is the most sustainably-produced outdoor festival in the region. The purpose of the Earth Day Festival is to advance sustainability in the region through celebration, education and action.

Nearly 600,000 companies at risk of collapse as Government help ends
Half of all firms in hospitality, food and other services are in the same position, as are 40% of those in the arts, entertainment and recreation sector
Nearly 600,000 UK firms are at risk of collapsing due to a cash crisis if the Government does not extend support measures, putting up to nine million jobs under threat, a think tank has warned.
Research by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) revealed that one in three businesses had less than three months of cash reserves – considered the danger point for firms – in the four months to the end of January.
This has risen from a quarter of firms previously, with small companies and those in the battered hospitality sector suffering the most as the third national lockdown in England wreaks havoc.
The IPPR said small businesses are at greatest risk, with four in 10 dangerously low on cash.
Half of all firms in hospitality, food and other services are in the same position, as are 40% of those in the arts, entertainment and recreation sector.
Ahead of next month's Budget, the group is calling for "rapid action" to extend support schemes such as furlough until the economy is fully open again to avoid a cliff-edge when they come to an end in March and April.
It also wants the Government to look at cash injections in return for taxpayer stakes in struggling but viable firms.
This could ultimately be held within a Citizens' Wealth Fund and provide a long-term return on the investment, according to the report by the IPPR's Centre for Economic Justice.
Carsten Jung, the IPPR's senior economist, said: "This is a moment of great peril for more than half a million UK employers as their cash reserves run perilously low and their businesses hang on by a thread.
"More firms are already at risk than at any time during the pandemic began, and in the worst hit industries such as hospitality and the arts, at least two in five employers are in the cash danger zone."
He added: "In just a few weeks, UK businesses face a dangerous precipice when the many kinds of government support that have kept them going for a year are suddenly taken away.
"For the sake of the economic recovery, businesses should be given a boost.
"The time for action to save our economy is now."
Existing business support schemes are currently due to end in late March and April, including loan guarantees, the business rates holiday and furlough support.
Most companies will soon be expected to begin repaying government-backed loans made during the pandemic, and to start paying backdated VAT bills for the past year.
As well as extending these, the IPPR also wants Chancellor Rishi Sunak to consider offering grant support beyond firms obliged by law to close, so that struggling businesses that supply them are also assisted.
It comes as a separate report by the Resolution Foundation warns that cheap loans risk creating swathes of overindebted zombie firms unable to expand or grow.
The Foundation said Mr Sunak should consider giving banks an incentive to address problems faced by some firms, by transferring 20% of the liability of the Bounce Back Loan scheme to the issuing banks, in exchange for a fee.
Jack Leslie, economist at the Resolution Foundation, said Mr Sunak "needs to look beyond the pandemic, and ensure that some firms' higher debt levels don't reinforce Britain's poor investment record that was holding back growth long before the current crisis began".

Klaipėda region students' conference "Teaching and Learning Innovatively"
In this fast changing world the main aim of education is to stimulate students' creativity and increase their capability to use technologies in oder to develop a wide range of skills. Different IT programmes inspire students to create new products and thus enhance their foreign language knowledge and skills.
The first Klaipėda region students' conference "Teaching and Learning Innovatively" was organised at Klaipėda "Ąžuolyno" gymnasium on 24 November 2017. The participants of the conference had an opportunity to listen to two plenary speakers: Ramunė Petrauskienė, teacher-expert at "Ąžuolyno" gymnasium, and Dr. Robin Gingerich, associate professor at LCC International University.
Students from Klaipėda "Aitvaro", "Ąžuolyno", "Baltijos", "Varpo", "Vėtrungės", Vytautas Magnus gymnasiums and Gargždai "Vaivorykštės" gymnasium worked in three parallel sessions. 19 students made presentations and shared their experience of using different IT programmes as a useful tool for CLIL lessons, where learning English is integrated with learning Maths, Biology, Physics, History and other subjects. Presentations were followed by discussions, which created a friendly atmosphere. At the end of the conference all participants received certificates and gifts.
This conference was an opportunity for students to show their excellent skills of making presentations in English. We believe that both teachers and students have increased their understanding of the importance of the application of different IT programmes in the teaching and learning of foreign languages.

Phnom Penh, 15th August 2018: edotco Group, edotco Cambodia, the Institute of Technology of Cambodia (ITC) and Atelier Cole have entered into an agreement to research the feasibility of using locally available bamboo for the construction of telecommunication towers. Under this agreement, Atelier Cole will be responsible for the construction of the bamboo structures following the feasibility research by edotco and ITC. edotco aims to have its first bamboo telecommunications tower ready for commercial use in Cambodia by the end of 2018.
Phillip Wong, Chief Regional Officer-Growth Markets of edotco Group said: "edotco always experiments with materials and innovative solutions to enhance the telecommunications infrastructure industry.
The bamboo telecommunications tower was conceptualized as part of our commitment to green engineering and reducing the impact on the environment. As these towers are constructed using natural, sustainable resources carbon emission is reduced.
The bamboo towers deployed in Bangladesh have shown a reduction of up to 70% per structure. These towers are also up to 88% lighter than steel structures, easing deployment and reducing the load to buildings".
"ITC firmly believes that renewable resources can play a key role in innovation and we are delighted to partner edotco on this pioneeringproject in Cambodia. Our country is rich with natural resources, using them to contribute to the nation's development is a natural step for progression" said Prof. CHREA Rada, Dean of Faculty of Civil Engineering.
Studies indicate that untreated bamboo has the ability to bear the weight of concrete while possessing the rigidity and tensile strength, making it an ideal material as a load bearing telecom structure. It can withstand gusts of up to 210km/h, with an expected lifespan of approximately 10 years with proper maintenance. A bamboo tower takes around 12 days to construct and consumes less energy to manufacture compared to traditional steel towers. The structure has a capacity to house up to 8 antennas at a time, enabling co-location.
edotco deployed the first bamboo tower in the world in Dhaka, Bangladesh in 2017 and has since deployed nine more with six in progress. The company continues to deepen its commitment to reducing the impact on the environment through its growing local partnerships aimed at bringing the bamboo towers to the other markets in which they have a presence.
Edotco (Cambodia) Co., Ltd., was launched as an independent business in 2013 and is part of the Malaysia-based Axiata Group, one of Asia's leading telecommunications groups, with Mobile Telephone, Network infrastructure and Digital Internet companies, serving approximately 290 million subscribers in 10 countries across the region. edotco Cambodia is constantly expanding its operations, currently owning and operating more than 2,200 telecom towers throughout Cambodia.

Trees are a natural part of the environment; however, they need different care when they are a part of your landscaping. You may have to follow certain rules in your neighbourhood about branches, for example. This usually only involves an occasional trim. There are times, however, when your trees may need more attention.
You may notice that your trees are not looking well. A falling tree can be a concern in a neighbourhood. It could fall on the roof or hurt people walking by. Rotting trees may fall at any time, posing a danger to families, passer-bys, and the home. A professional can come out to assess the situation and come up with a plan. They need to consider the degree of decay and other structural damage.
The solution to your tree issue may be as simple as removing some diseased branches. The problem may have infiltrated the entire tree, however, in this case, the tree may need to be removed. This can be done safely by a professional. If the tree can be saved, you may need to schedule routine visits with experienced tree surgeons in Farnborough. You can be advised on the best course of action.
The trees on your property often contribute to a peaceful and beautiful landscape. They need care, at times to stay healthy. When you notice changes in your tree, it is a good idea to call a specialist right away. This may help you save the tree.

Deborah Waxman is an American rabbi and the president and CEO of Reconstructing Judaism (the merged organization of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College and Jewish Reconstructionist Communities). Waxman was inaugurated as the president of both on October 26, 2014. The ceremony took place at the National Museum of American Jewish History in Philadelphia. Waxman is believed to be the first woman rabbi and first lesbian to lead a Jewish congregational union, and the first lesbian to lead a Jewish seminary; the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College is both a congregational union and a seminary. She previously served as the vice-president for governance for the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College. In 2015 she was named as one of The Forward 50.

Scholarship
Waxman has focused her scholarly work on American Jewish history. She is a member of the Academic Council of the American Jewish Historical Society. Her topics of research include American Jewish history, Jewish identity and peoplehood, women in American Judaism, and Mordecai Kaplan. She has published articles in academic and Jewish journals and presented at conferences.

As an undergraduate religion major at Columbia College, Waxman began her religious scholarship. She earned a Master of Hebrew Letters from and was ordained as a rabbi by the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College in 1999. She completed a PhD in American Jewish History at Temple University. She also earned a certificate in Jewish Women's Studies from RRC in conjunction with Temple University.

Reconstructionist Movement Leadership

Administrator and Strategic Planner
Waxman has held a leadership role in the Reconstructionist movement since 2003, when she became the Vice President for Governance of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College (RRC).

From 2006 to 2008 RRC undertook a strategic planning process to serve as a 5-year guide for the organization. Waxman was central in the strategic plan's development. The "Key Issues" addressed by the plan included: demographics of the Jewish community, image and influence, and the educational program. Regarding the plan, Waxman stated:

In the "Making Change Happen" section of the plan Waxman explained that the ideas the strategic planning committee considered "most potent" include "the expansiveness and creativity inherent in Kaplan's definition of Judaism as the evolving religious civilization of the Jewish people [and] the sense of both empowerment and responsibility embedded in that concept and in the ensuing mandate that every generation of Jews must reconstruct Judaism for its own time." About the committee's motivation, Waxman said:

During the fourth year of the five-year plan (2012) the Reconstructionist movement as a whole underwent a restructuring. At that point the Jewish Reconstructionist Federation (JRF)--the union of Reconstructionist congregations—and RRC became one organization and RRC then became the "primary national organization" of the Reconstructionist movement, under the leadership of RRC President Rabbi Dan Ehrenkrantz. Ehrenkrantz explained "our congregations voted to restructure, closing the doors of the Jewish Reconstructionist Federation (JRF) and bringing together most movement activities under one roof at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College (RRC).

On October 9, 2013, that more broadly structured RRC named Deborah Waxman as its next president, the first to be appointed to lead the new RRC organization. She is believed to be the first woman rabbi to head a joint Jewish congregational union and Jewish seminary. Before she began her presidency on January 1st, 2014, Waxman was "working on completing the merged organization's first-ever strategic plan. ... Waxman said the organization's goal is to further engage people involved in Reconstructionist Judaism and to provide an avenue into Jewish life — be it cultural, religious or activist — for anyone who is searching. In the wider American landscape, she views Reconstructionism as a strong voice for a progressive religion that is deeply engaged in social-justice issues."

In addition to her experience in strategic planning, Waxman has written grant proposals that have won support from funders such as the Kresge Foundation, Wexner Foundation and Cummings Foundation and has stewarded major RRC donors.

Pulpit Rabbi
Waxman served as High Holy Days rabbi at Congregation Bet Havarim in Syracuse, NY for 11 years.

Personal life
Waxman was born and raised in West Hartford, Connecticut. She has two siblings. She was raised a Conservative Jew and was one of the first girls in Connecticut to have a Conservative Bat Mitzvah on a Saturday morning (in 1979). Her father was a traveling salesman and her mother was president of the sisterhood of their synagogue in Bloomfield, Connecticut.

Waxman lives in Elkins Park, in suburban Philadelphia with her partner, Christina Ager, a Jew by choice.

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)–1 influences fetal growth by modifying insulin-like growth factor–I (IGF-I) bioavailability. IGFBP-1 phosphorylation, which markedly increases its affinity for IGF-I, is regulated by mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) and casein kinase (CSNK)–2. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. We examined the cellular localization and potential interactions of IGFBP-1, CSNK-2β, and mTOR as a prerequisite for protein–protein interaction. Analysis of dual immunofluorescence images indicated a potential perinuclear co-localization between IGFBP-1 and CSNK-2β and a nuclear co-localization between CSNK-2β and mTOR. Proximity ligation assay (PLA) indicated proximity between IGFBP-1 and CSNK-2β as well as mTOR and CSNK-2β but not between mTOR and IGFBP-1. Three-dimensional rendering of the PLA images validated that IGFBP-1 and CSNK-2β interactions were in the perinuclear region and mTOR and CSNK-2β interactions were also predominantly perinuclear rather than nuclear as indicated by mTOR and CSNK-2β co-localization. Compared with control, hypoxia and rapamycin treatment showed markedly amplified PLA signals for IGFBP-1 and CSNK-2β (approximately 18-fold, P = 0.0002). Stable isotope labeling with multiple reaction monitoring–mass spectrometry demonstrated that hypoxia and rapamycin treatment increased IGFBP-1 phosphorylation at Ser98/Ser101/Ser119/Ser174 but most considerably (106-fold) at Ser169. We report interactions between CSNK-2β and IGFBP-1 as well as mTOR and CSNK-2β, providing strong evidence of a mechanistic link between mTOR and IGF-I signaling, two critical regulators of cell growth via CSNK-2.

KELLY AKASHI
A: I am an artist from Los Angeles. I was born here and did most of my education here, but I also studied for a year in Frankfurt at Stäedelschule. I love being an artist in Los Angeles because it has so many resources. I feel like I can learn how to make almost anything here.
I am mostly known for my sculptures, but I come from an education in analog photography and still produce optical, cameraless prints. My objects evolved out of my interests in candid and documentary, chemical-based photography, which eventually led me to create candles, unique lost-wax bronze casts, and blown glass artworks. Since I began working with those materials, I have expanded my use of them, mixing materials and processes to incorporate stone, heirlooms, and fiber into my current exhibition, Faultline, at Francois Ghebaly Gallery.
Q: You mentioned how your search to extend the meaning of an image, led you from photography to more sculptural works. How did your relationship and understanding of photography evolve for this particular show?
A: Photography is an incredibly complex field that incorporates technology, chance, loss, and representation with aesthetics.
When I graduated with my BFA in photography in 2006, the darkroom was already becoming a thing of the past. I spent years trying to understand what I wanted to get out of photography and how to make it relevant in a world that felt my darkroom processes and techniques were "dead" due to the rise of digital photography. Eventually, my object making led me to learn glassblowing, and I began using my glass objects in the darkroom to create photograms. I would exhibit prints of glass alongside other glass objects to give people different perspectives on what they were seeing.
In my current exhibition, Faultline, I wanted to work with a different chemical-based cameraless process. These images are unique prints of crystals that I grew, and I used Cibachrome, silver-gelatin, and chromogenic paper to image the crystals in different ways. They appear biological, geological, cosmic, and microscopic at the same time. I feel my work is most successful when it can balance information and aesthetics or convey complex emotions.
Q: You mentioned how you look to triangulate approaches to talk about the "space in between" — can you expand a little on how that manifests in your practice?
A: I kind of hate saying "a space in between" but it's been hard to find a better way to talk about giving shape to an immaterial subject. For my last show, Mood Organ, which was at Tanya Bonakdar Gallery, I wanted to see if I could make objects that convey and carry emotions. I wanted to give intangible notions like instinct, emotions, and intuition form since they can be felt even though they are essentially unseen.
I don't think there is one way to do this, so I did it every way I could.
In the current show with Francois Ghebaly, I wanted to dig deeper, to excavate these things we inherited even further. As I worked on this show, I found connections to ancestry materialize in forms I have produced for years, like plants, body casts, and wax. But I also found this language in objects from my own personal history. I have always sought to make work that was even more direct than photography in how it engages and reflects lived life. In art, there is always some mediation. By triangulating the conversation, which is always slightly off-center, the space opens to connect to the real, lived, felt experiences that I want to address.
Q: Are there any mediums or techniques that you haven't yet put into your practice that you are interested in?
A: Yes, but if I reveal them here, I will give away what is coming next! I have been studying a new technique for a year that may enter the practice at some point. I can say it is fiber-based.
A: Camera Lucida has never stopped inspiring me. Recently I read Robin Kelsey's book on chance in photography, which I enjoyed. Childhood's End was my last favorite fiction book that I read.
I am really interested in learning more about curator Karen Higa's work, which led me to a book she wrote the introduction for: Manzanar, Architecture Double. It's a series of photos by Andrew Freeman of all the Manzanar bunkers still in existence (many have been moved and repurposed). In addition, the work of Julia Phillips and Julien Nguyen inspires me to keep pushing my practice in a rigorous and generous way that educates my audience. And I have gone deeper into Noguchi's work and life through the book Isamu Noguchi's Modernism: Negotiating Race, Labor, and Nation, 1930–1950.
CRITIC'S QUOTE
"Her crystalline photographs and sculptures capture and render not only time, but emotional experience, interiority, and memory. In Faultline, these materials are joined by new additions to her repertoire: carved stone, polished aluminum, and heirloom jewelry worn, loved, and gifted by her and her family. Taken together, the works pose biological and geological materials within a symbolic space of mind and memory."

UK ed-tech firm acquired for £12m
Mon, 06 Sep 2021 | BUSINESS SALE
UK-headquartered higher education software firm Scientia has been acquired by Australian software-as-a-service (SaaS) company TechnologyOne in a £12 million deal. The target business provides services including timetabling and scheduling for more than 150 universities in the UK and Australia.
The sale price comes at around a 7x multiple of Scientia's post-tax profits of £1.7 million for the year ending December 31 2019, a year in which the company reported revenue of close to £11 million and gross profits of £9.8 million.
The deal includes an initial cash payment of £6 million, with further payments based on Scientia achieving progressive earnouts until financial year 2023. The final consideration will be paid in cash generated from internal sources.
The deal is TechnologyOne's first international acquisition and considerably boosts its market share, particularly in the UK.

Top 7 Movies About Marriage and Separation
by: Peter Jackson
Love is something that we cannot go without in our lives, but sometimes even what we thought would last forever eventually comes to an end. In these kinds of situations, we need to remain strong and think positively, because if the relationship we had ended, it wasn't the perfect one.
In this article, we are going to talk about films in which the main subject is love, marriage, and separation, so if you are currently in the mood of watching something like this, feel free to stay with us until the end and check out our recommendations.
Since there are quite a few films that we want to introduce you to, let's jump straight into the content.
Kramer vs. Kramer – 1979
Although this is an older movie, it is more than worthy of your attention. The film was made back in 1979, but it can still compete with almost all modern films when it comes to good story-telling and emotions.
The director and screenwriter are Robert Benton, and since we don't want to spoil any minute of this masterpiece for you, we'll just tell say that it's a great film and you should watch it, especially if you are in the mood for love dramas.
Shoot the Moon – 1982
Another old film that was an absolute hit back in its time, and it is still quite popular today as well. The film is directed by Alan Parker, and it is about two main characters, Mister and Mrs. Dunlap, who are trying to act like the breakup they are going through is not that big of a deal and they need to be very "grown-up" about it.
Things aren't so easily done when you have emotions for someone however, so you should watch this film to see how the story plays out. There are a few things that will shock you, but in a good way.
A Separation – 2011
A newer movie by a popular Iranian director named Asghar Farhadi who also did the screenwriting, this one is about testing faiths and trust. The film is not that difficult to watch, although it has some pretty intense moments, and it is an artwork of great quality.
"A Separation" won the award for the best foreign-language film back in 2012, and it is still highly appreciated in the film community these days.
An absolute must-watch film if you are in the mood for watching movies with this kind of subject.
The main characters are Simin and Nader, and their daughter Termeh. Simin is the mother, and she refuses to take care of young Termeh, so her father Nader has to find someone to help him. That's where the drama begins.
This flick will surely remind you of how separation can be difficult in real life. Here is where you can see all the things necessary, things you have to do such as hiring a lawyer, and going through the entire process of divorce.
Heartburn – 1986
Is it just us, or the older films about marriages and separation have a lot more emotion in them? Heartburn is a film that's an adaptation of the novel with the same name, written by Nora Ephron back in 1983. Rachel Samstag and Mark Foreman are the main characters in the film, and the plot starts when the political columnist is caught having an affair.
According to the writer of the novel, Nora Ephron, one day she was writing something completely different in her office, and then she suddenly started writing about her marriage and how it ended. This is how the novel was made, and then adapted into a movie which achieved quite the success post-release.
Crazy Stupid Love – 2011
A newer film, at least compared to the other ones on the list, and this one will help you get through the tough period that you are experiencing right now. You'll laugh, maybe cry as well, but then laugh some more. Why? Because Steve Carell and Ryan Gosling are here to take care of your emotions.
We're not going to reveal too much of the plot, but the action starts when Cal is being told by his wife that she wants a divorce and she wants it done quickly. There are quite a few twists in this film, and it's a great journey that will keep you at the edge of your seat, so make sure to give it a chance on your next movie night.
Hope Floats – 1998
Are you a fan of Sandra Bullock? If the answer is yes, this movie will have an even better effect on you. Sandra plays the role of a wife who discovers that her husband is cheating on her, and she sees this on live television. It might not be the easiest film to watch if you recently went through something like this, but it will help you understand some more about the emotions that a person feels when they face a situation of this kind.
The film is a true emotional rollercoaster and it will reach down to the depths of your emotions for sure. Whether you're going to cry while you're watching, or you will find some soothe by correlating with the character, we are not sure, but we think that you'll like this film.
Eat Pray Love – 2010
Last but not least, Eat Pray Love is a film that managed to get the final spot on our list, and it's a newer movie as well, compared to some of the previous titles that we mention. The star of the film is Julia Roberts, and the story is based on a very popular novel, but we are not going to reveal which one, and we'll leave that up to you to discover.
The plot is about a woman who recently divorced and she feels like she's way into her comfort zone to achieve the things she wants in life. After you face a situation like this in your life, you need to be "reborn", and that can only be done by stepping out of the comfort zone and doing the required actions that will improve your life.
If you are feeling down at the moment, and you need something or someone to correlate to, this is the right movie that will inspire you to change no matter how difficult things are right now for you.

Pew to Study Effectiveness of Faith-Based Programs
(RNS) Few experts would dispute that faith-based groups provide crucial social services ranging from drug treatment to soup kitchens, but precious little research exists on whether such groups are more effective than their secular or government counterparts.
A Philadelphia-based foundation hopes to answer that question with a $6.3 million grant to compile a "comprehensive, impartial body of research" on the effectiveness of faith-based social service groups. The project, funded by the Pew Charitable Trusts, will be overseen by the Rockefeller Institute of Government based at the State University of New York in Albany.
The initiative, called the Roundtable on Religion and Social Welfare Policy, comes as Congress prepares to debate a scaled-back version of President Bush's "faith-based initiative." A compromise crafted by Sens. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., and Rick Santorum, R-Pa., provides charitable giving incentives and help for social service providers. It does not, however, contain a provision that allows religious groups to discriminate in hiring or skirt anti-discrimination laws like the original Bush plan. After his plan languished in the Senate for months, Bush endorsed the Lieberman-Santorum bill as a first step.
Although the new bill has been presented, questions on faith-based programs are likely to linger. Luis Lugo, Pew's director of religion programs, hopes the new project will help frame the future debate. "The reality is that we do not really know enough about faith-based social services -- how effective they are when compared with secular alternatives, what they do best, or even the degree to which the faith factor is interwoven into their work -- nor about the possible legal parameters of religious groups competing for federal dollars," he said.
The project will focus on three main areas. George Washington University Law School will track and analyze legal developments related to faith-based funding. Search for Common Ground, a consensus-building group that recently found 29 areas of agreement from the left, right and center, will sponsor a series of meetings to bring together critics and supporters to talk about the issues involved.
In addition, the Roundtable will sponsor a Web site with "up-to-date information on the role of faith-based organizations in our social welfare system, including project reports and links to legal opinions in major court cases," according to a press release.

Located in a secluded pastoral setting off of Historic Main Street, this home was designed to appear very traditional on the exterior and very open, airy, and loft-like on the interior.
Built for a young growing family that had formerly lived in an industrial loft in Boston, the project needed to appear traditional on the outside while providing light-bathed, crisp, and minimalist spaces in the interior. The result is a strategy for an "urban barn," which incorporates sweeping views to the pastoral landscape, integration of collected re-claimed doors, and a soaring, open, lofty feel.

Widow's Hole Preserve Update: Spring Restoration
By Matt Swain, Yvette DeBow-Salsedo
It's been a little while since we've given you an update of what's happening with the restoration efforts at Widow's Hole Preserve. In 2019, expect to see many changes to the landscape as the restoration begins in earnest!
Over the past several years, our stewardship team has been developing the long-term management plan for the preserve. This work has taken place in conjunction with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County's Marine program – which has provided expertise on marine habitat restoration. The plan was completed last year, a necessary first step before submitting permit requests to the various government agencies that provide oversight for land and wetland restoration: the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, the US Army Corps of Engineers and the Village of Greenport.
Important to note: While the Town of Southold holds the easement on the property – and has provided approvals for our work – the DEC, Army Corps and Village are the entities who provide the permits for the actual work at the Preserve.
We are pleased to report that most of the paperwork is behind us, although we do still have before the Village of Greenport's Zoning Board of Appeal permit applications for new signage at the site, which will include a kiosk to provide information on the history of the site and the restoration. We are hopeful that those permits will be in place by spring.
In the meantime, we are acquiring the raw materials needed — the sand, gravel, cobblestones and rock — needed for the upland and wetland restoration. The delivery and placement of the materials is expected to occur from March-April.
After the sand has been graded in April, Cornell plans to work with community volunteers to plant American beachgrass along the upper beach and newly created dune for stabilization. Beachgrass plants have been growing at the Trust's Agricultural Center in Southold for the last two seasons in preparation for revegetating the project site.
Spartina, commonly known as cordgrass or cord-grass, is a grass found in coastal salt marshes. The grass is a native plant and has been naturally growing in the wetlands surrounding the Preserve.
What we have done is harvest some of naturally growing Spartina seeds from area salt marshes, processed them, and stored them at Cedar Beach, where they will be planted out in the greenhouse in March. The greenhouse-grown plants will be maintained until planted out starting in June.
Also, Spartina plants that were growing in the project area at Widow's Hole were transferred from the preserve to Cornell's facility at Cedar Beach where they were "heeled-in" for the winter. This process will multiply and strengthen the plants, which will then be replanted as part of the restoration process.
Plans are also afoot for the replacement of the fence. The new fencing will open up the vista to the community, while protecting the sensitive nature of the preserve.
And last, but certainly not least, we are continuing to remove invasive plants, shrubs and trees from the Preserve, including autumn olive, Japanese honeysuckle, Asian bittersweet, mile-a-minute vine. Also a number of non-native trees. The removal of invasive plants is important for the overall health of the Preserve as their growth tends to be out of balance with the native plants.
Our thanks go out to the Peconic Estuary Program for their funding support of this project.
We look forward to sharing more news as the spring nears. If you have questions or concerns, please reach out to us!

REHOBOTH BEACH, Del.- The Delaware State Fire Marshal has concluded its investigation into an early Thursday morning fire at store in one of the Rehoboth Beach outlets.
Fire crews with the Lewes, Rehoboth Beach, and Indian River volunteer fire companies responded to the fire around 4:19 this morning at the Polo Ralph Lauren store located on the 35000 block of Midway Outlet Drive.
Investigators said the sprinkler system kept the flames at bay so firefighters were able to get the fire under control quickly.
The cause of the fire was a malfunction of a fluorescent light fixture that ignited nearby combustible materials, according to investgigators.
About $5,000 worth of damage was reported. There were no reported injuries.

The art of designing and building ideas

Fran Silvestre
Chief architect in Fran Silvestre Arquitectos
fransilvestrenavarro.com
Fran Silvestre Arquitectos is a studio based in Valencia made up a multidisciplinary group of architects founded in 2005 by architect Fran Silvestre.
Fran Silvestre (born 5 July 1976) is a Spanish architect. After having graduated in Architecture at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Valencia in 2001, he specialized in urban planning at the Technische Universiteit Eindhoven a year later. Then, he won a scholarship to work at the studio of the Pritzker Prize architect from Portugal, Alvaro Siza, which is located in Oporto, and have ever since undertaken projects in cooperation with him. He is also dedicated to teach as professor at the Universidad Politecnica de Valencia since 2006, and the Universidad Europea – Laureate International Universities since 2009.
Influenced by the above mentioned architect, Alvaro Siza, or the sculptor Andreu Alfaro, among others, the studio realizes series of projects that take into account factors such as modulation, serialization or light. Thus, giving rise to buildings of high purity, using constant innovative materials and technologies. Since its foundation, it has focused on the developement and implementation of small-scale projects, for instance, The Atrium House (2009) or the House at the mountainside of a Castle (2010). It also carries out multidisciplinary work while designing objects like the Alis chair, collaborating with other studios such as Alfaro Hofmann, which is dedicated to interior design.
Jointly with the Universitat Politècnica de València and the Technological Institute of Energy (ITE), located in Valencia, it has recently developed the Eólica Wind Tower. It is conceived as a vertical element, able to supply power to itself, without having to use other external sources. The power system is composed of series of turbines and current inverters connected to the grid.
The firm's projects have been published in international magazines of architecture and design such as, Pencil, GG, GA Houses, On-Site, or AV3, and exhibited in very important museums and galleries of art and design.
Last year, Fran Silvestre Arquitectos was awarded with the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2013 in the category: "architecture an urban design" for the project House on the cliff. During 2010, has been awarded the MHK Prize (Berlín) for the project Casa del Atrio (Atrium House); and has been finalist of Concurso internacional para la Fundación de Arquitectura Contemporánea de Córdoba; and the project Casa en la Ladera del castillo (House on the mountainside overlooked by castle) has been chosen by Fundación Caja Arquitectos to be part of the best spanish architectural buildings of 2008-2009 catalogue.
The focus of the Project arises from a dual commitment: the will to give a technical answer to a specific context (program needs, budgets, policy, environment) and the desire to seek beauty trough the built work. This process seeks satisfaction, understood in its fullest sense, of all those actively involved in its development: customers and users in particular, but also collaborators, builders and designers.
During our career can be found very different types of building. There are new-builds, rehabilitations, alterations, housing blocks, public buildings Works made with high budgets and small budgets, but in all cases great attention has been paid to the economy, without waste. The architecture may be a grand gesture or a great detail, if each brief is seen as an opportunity to realize a good project.
Another feature of the process is continuity. Continuity with an environment that must be respected, spatial continuity, the use of few materials, integration of facilities, of lighting Are all common aspects in the exhibits. Also, continuity in time is also searched, evaluating the architecture that is able to endure without becoming obsolete.
It emphasizes the use of innovation trough new materials, new technologies which improve people's lives. Innovation based both on experience and the improvement on tradition.
Accuracy is a key concept in the working method. It requires a focused and attentive activity throughout the whole process, ranging from the initial idea, trough the drafting of the project until its realization: the construction, the furniture, its maintenance. Dialogue is always present, since the work becomes part of the identity of those who inhabit it. The house and, where appropriate, the work space are an accurate reflection of those who live or work there, an unmistakable expression of their personality or their corporate culture.
This dialogue seeks comfort and also utility, examines the conflicts and joys of daily acts of human life, which defines architecture against the other arts. The answer given to these concepts, developed with extremely subjective parameters, characterizes the projects, each of them different from the rest.
And finally, let us consider the team. Excellence is design is based on the integration of a network of professionals that enjoy the pleasure for their work. A team of specialists in the calculation of structures, acoustics, building services, graphic design, interior design, architecture that produces a shared creative environment capable of generating contagious motivation, taking care of what is in progress and excited about what is to come next.

Cricket's Modern Greats: Tendulkar, Lara, Ponting, Kallis, Clarke, Cook …. Chanderpaul too?
December 20, 2013 By shumpty77 in Shumpty Speaks Tags: chanderpaul, cricket, greats	1 Comment
As I bit into my lunch burrito today and checked Cricinfo I noted that again Shivnarine Chanderpaul has come to the aid of his team scored an innings saving century in New Zealand.
It left me pondering Chanderpaul's place in the game in the eyes of the fans and the pundits. What I mean is this: when one considers the modern greats of the game how often is the name Chanderpaul mentioned? With no scientific evidence to back this, I am of the view that he is oft the forgotten man when it comes to considering those who dominated the game in the last 20 years.
Chanderpaul debuted in 1994 and has amassed the following record:
Matches Innings Runs Average 100's 50's
153 260 11199 52.08 29 62
Now consider that record in comparison to these records of those who have played the game since Chanderpaul's debut on 17 March 1994:
Player Span Matches Innings Runs Average 100's 50's
SR Tendulkar (India) 1994-2013 169 286 13952 54.28 44 58
RT Ponting (Aus) 1995-2012 168 287 13378 51.85 41 62
R Dravid (ICC/India) 1996-2012 164 286 13288 52.31 36 63
JH Kallis (ICC/SA) 1995-2013 165 278 13140 55.21 44 58
S Chanderpaul (WI) 1994-2013 153 260 11199 52.08 29 62
BC Lara (ICC/WI) 1994-2006 119 212 11012 53.45 33 41
DPMD Jayawardene (SL) 1997-2013 138 232 10806 49.56 31 45
KC Sangakkara (SL) 2000-2013 117 200 10486 56.98 33 42
GC Smith (ICC/SA) 2002-2013 113 196 9102 49.46 27 38
VVS Laxman (India) 1996-2012 134 225 8781 45.97 17 56
ML Hayden (Aus) 1996-2009 102 182 8605 51.22 30 29
V Sehwag (ICC/India) 2001-2013 104 180 8586 49.34 23 32
Inzamam-ul-Haq (ICC/Pak) 1994-2007 106 177 8108 50.99 23 44
KP Pietersen (Eng) 2005-2013 102 177 8052 47.64 23 34
MJ Clarke (Aus) 2004-2013 100 170 7987 52.2 26 27
AN Cook (Eng) 2006-2013 100 179 7955 47.07 25 34
SR Waugh (Aus) 1994-2004 105 164 7582 55.75 25 33
The final part of the puzzle when it comes to Chanderpaul's place in the game and his future legacy is how he has performed against the best teams in the world over the span of his career:
Chanderpaul v Country Matches Innings Runs Average 100's 50's
Australia 20 38 1649 49.96 5 11
South Africa 20 36 1619 50.59 5 7
India 25 44 2171 63.85 7 10
England 33 54 2359 52.42 5 16
These numbers compare more than a bit well to those of any Chanderpaul's contemporaries don't they? On their own they put him right up there with the greats who have strapped on a pad. Then you have to add to the impressiveness of these numbers the quality of the team that Chanderpaul has been playing in for all of these years. Here are the records of each test playing team during Chanderpaul's career:
Team Mat Won Lost Tied Draw W/L
Australia 225 135 50 0 40 2.7
England 246 96 75 0 75 1.28
South Africa 196 96 48 0 51 2
India 187 69 53 0 64 1.3
Pakistan 165 63 59 0 43 1.06
Sri Lanka 169 62 55 0 52 1.12
West Indies 194 43 94 0 56 0.45
New Zealand 164 41 66 0 56 0.62
Therein lies the real story behind the record of Chanderpaul: he has performed consistently and excellently at the highest level whilst all around him (particularly since 2006 when Lara retired) has been the disarray of a declining team and bitter infighting between the board and the players in the team.
I am left to wonder whether Chanderpaul would receive more of the kudos he so obviously deserves if he played for Australia or a similarly successful team. I also wonder if Chanderpaul's method at the crease was more aesthetically pleasing, like that of Lara, whether he would similarly receive said kudos. I am certain that both wonderings should be answered in the affirmative.
We have recently seen the retirement of Tendulkar and his, effective, coronation by all and sundry in the game as a living deity. Chanderpaul's record over his career is equally as impressive as Tendulkar's and there is a strong argument that he has been more important to his team than Tendulkar was (Tendulkar had the benefit Messrs Sehwag, Dravid and Laxman to bat with afternoon). His retirement cannot be far away and one can only hope that he gets the same consideration given by the ICC and his home cricket board as Tendulkar received. Frankly tough I suspect he will remain the forgotten great of the game he presently is.
Casenotes: Liquidations and Proofs of Debt … ensuring your claim is considered »
Dylan Hearn says:
Yes, yes and yes! I love Chanderpaul. I love the fact that his technique, so ugly that he looks like a hermit crab scuttling along the crease, would have a batting coach in tears. I love the fact that again and again he pulls the West Indies out of the fire, and I love the fact that – other than sadly now retired Dravid – he's one of the few modern batsmen that, once he's in, you can see bowlers literally pulling their hair out wondering how to get him out. He's not my favourite modern cricketer (that would be Sangakkara, but he comes close.

U.N. Myanmar rights envoy calls for halt to violence in Kachin state
May 2, 2018 /in News /by ND Burma
GENEVA (Reuters) – The United Nations human rights expert on Myanmar voiced deep concern on Tuesday at a sharply escalation in hostilties in Kachin state, citing reports of the army using aerial bombings, heavy weapons and artillery fire on civilian areas near China.

"Innocent civilians are being killed and injured, and hundreds of families are now fleeing for their lives," Yanghee Lee, U.N. special rapporteur on human rights in Myanmar, said in a statement.
Thousands of people rallied on Monday in Kachin to demand humanitarian access for villagers trapped by fighting between government forces and ethnic minority insurgents that has displaced more than 5,000 people. "Any wilful impediment of relief supplies may amount to war crimes under international law," Lee said, appealing for access.

Q: How can I show a modal that warns 10 seconds before the session ends? I have a project in Angular where the session expires at the end of 60 minutes as the known token is invalidated.
Currently I have a JWT interceptor that when it detects the invalidated token takes me to the login page.
I would like to implement a modal window in which the user is notified of the imminent session termination.
How could I do it?

A: When you get a token from the server, you can set a timer for the notification modal. The JWT have an exp field that saving data when the token have been expired,so your solution will looks like this:
setExpiredTimer(): void {
    this.authService.token$
      .pipe(
        switchMap(({ exp }) => timer(Number(new Date(exp) - 10000)))
      )
      .subscribe(() => this.showNotificationModal());
  }

Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor and it occurs in 16-25% of diagnosed cases, with a higher incidence in children aged 1 to 9 years old. The current standard of care consists of multiple stages of therapy including surgery, irradiation, and chemotherapy. However, a subset of tumors with a still devastating prognosis remains. Metabotropic receptors are G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) that act as second messengers. Γ-aminobutyric acid B receptors (GABAB) and C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) are metabotropic receptors that belong to the C-family of GPCRs and are activated by the neurotransmitters, γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) and stromal-cell derived factor; SDF-1 (CXCL12), respectively. GABAB receptors are heterodimers where GABA binds to a B1 subunit, and the B2 subunit is coupled to G-proteins regulating activities of the Ca2+ channels, K+ channels, and adenylyl cyclase (AC). Previous studies showed that CXCR4 is highly expressed by glial and neuronal cells in the central nervous system (CNS) and GABAergic neurons. Evidence shows that CXCR4 is overexpressed in MB and upon administration of a CXCR4 antagonist significantly decreased the cell proliferation rate in Type II MB. Evidence also proved that CXCR4 and GABAB can crosstalk and GABAB was found to be highly expressed in Type II – MB showing increased Ca2+ levels and protein receptor localization. Current results show that upon administration of the GABAB agonist; baclofen increased cell proliferation in Type II MB cells. Moreover, immunofluorescence showed increased levels of GABAB during mitotic division. In conclusion, by administering the antagonist; phaclofen would enhance the efficacy of chemotherapeutic treatments on MB patients by decreasing the proliferation rate of the aggressive tumors.
