ISEA 2010 Ruhr: A High Tech Phoenix Rises From the Rust
Reviewed by Simone Osthoff
School of Visual Arts, Penn State University
From August 20th to the 29th , the 16th International Symposium on Electronic Art - ISEA 2010 successfully engaged more than two-dozen venues in three German cities: Essen, Dortmund, and Duisburg. The Ruhr region (appointed Europe's cultural capital 2010) transitioning from the coal and steel industry to a post-industrial economy of information, knowledge and creativity, provided the momentous stage for the symposium, itself a model of transnational and intercultural collaboration. The sheer number of events - three cities in ten days - certainly proved the skills of ISEA organizers lead by Andreas Broeckmann and Stefan Riekeles, but it challenged participants as well.
In this regard, Brian Massumi's keynote lecture about the connection between distributed events and cognition was not only appropriate to art theory and to the structure of the program, but as he pointed out, it has also been a central topic for military theory in the age of 'netwar.' Massumi examined the complexity of constructing and anticipating trajectories, as well as of the role in this process of synesthesia, language, and archives. He began by pondering: "What makes an event an event when its occurrence is dispersive: when no unified perspective on it or integral experience of it is possible? Does distributed cognition solve the problem, or complicate it further?"
Essen and the first weekend of the program amidst the epic scale of the Zollverein Park
Massumi's lecture was delivered in the new and ingenious SANAA building, designed by the Japanese architecture firm after which the building is named, located in the Zollverein Park. The closed Zollverein mine at the center of the German coke and steel industry was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2001. In 2002, it was redeveloped by among others, Rem Koolhaas, who approached the preservation of this industrial site by putting the former plant structures to new uses. History, memory, and architecture were thus aligned with the future business development of the region. The park houses a large number of buildings and multifunctional areas including museums, restaurants, studios, lecture halls, exhibition and performance spaces surrounded by gardens and promenades for pedestrians, cyclists, and skaters. ISEA installations and performances took place at PACT - Performance Art Choreographic Centre. One of them was Christopher Salter's Just Noticeable Difference, a large black cube in which in total darkness, one person at a time, laying on the ground, experienced first a total sensory deprivation, then small variations of touch, light and sounds for a period of about 12 minutes that actually felt much longer. Other works took place outside, such as "Wet Sounds" by Joel Cahen's. In a setting reminiscent of post-industrial sci-fi films, a former factory swimming pool, now a public pool, was turned into a sound art installation with swimmers, mostly local families with children floating while enjoying the combination of different sound tracks under and above the water. On Sunday, elsewhere in Essen a day of sound works took place at the Institute for Computer Music and Electronic Media (ICEM), Folkwang University of the Arts.
The city of Dortmund and the central five days of the program
The fifty-three panels, main exhibitions, receptions, e-culture fair, workshops, evening concerts, as well as nightclub performances took place over the week in multiple Dortmund venues. Among them, the cafe and club Domicil became ISEA's informal sidewalk headquarters where the day's events ended with audiovisual performances and analog social gathering. A Wednesday free day was dedicated to excursions to various exhibitions, research centers and tourist sites in the region.
The panel discussions (typically four taking place simultaneously) ranged from stars and satellites to theory and history of media art, from algorithmic topology to climate crisis and eco-activism, from cyborgs and nonhuman performances to archive preservation, from software to the future of education, which, by the way, was also the theme of Roy Ascott's keynote lecture. A new area of focus was the Latin American Forum organized by Andreas Broeckmann and Andres Burbano. It brought together an exciting group of media artists, curators and critics from more than eight Latin American countries in four related panels. The Forum also included the Festicumex night performance, which was a lot of fun for performers and public alike.
Discarding essentialist identities, the Forum explored a number of network nodes and radical experiences. The deep roots of media history in Colonial Latin America were examined by the presentations of Domingo Ledezma and Karla Jasso, followed by a Siegfried Zielinski's presentation and commentary. Current media art was examined by a number of curators. The project (Ready)media: Towards an Archaeology of Media and Invention in Mexico was presented by Tania Aedo, director of the Laboratorio Arte Alameda. Titled Insulares Divergentes, the on-going research mapping collaborations, media labs and exhibition spaces, was presented by Jose Carlos Mariatequi and Victoria Messi in an informal and captivating dialogue. Giselle Beiguelman termed "technophagic emergence" the tendency of the digital culture in Brazil to devour and grind technology into new production models for collective use. She pointed out that in that country, over the last decade eighteen million people rose out of poverty for the first time, along with another thirty-five million from the lower middle class, and now have access to mobile technology, often skipping traditional literacy all together. Living in the poor city outskirts and slums, they are using and combining technology with the same waviness of ISEA's workshops titled "Experimental Electronics," "Hackteria," and "DIY makeaway."
Recent histories of Electronic Culture in Latin America included Enrique Rivera's examination of the beginning of President Allende's socialist government in Chile and the role of Stafford Beer's Management Cybernetics in it (the prototype of Beer's operation room from 1972 is today in Liverpool). Andres Burbano analyzed electronic music in Chile fifty years ago and up to the COMDASUAR - the personal Digital Analog Computer built from scratch by Jose Vicente Asuar in 1978 in Santiago. Among artists who document movements they participated in was the Uruguayan Brian Mackern. He delivered a performance full of humor and irony, declaring that "netart is not dead, it just smells funny," based on his artist's book Netart latino database, 1999. Answering a call on civil disobedience, Alejandro Duque examined uses of technology for survival - some classified as illegal - such as the pirating of satellites by people living in remote locations in Colombia and Brazil in order to communicate and create networks. Open Source was discussed by two separate presentations - Lila Pagoda probed issues of authorship in the context of Argentina and Claudio Rivera-Sequel examined three collaborative projects. Artists presentations included Arcangel Constantini's nanodrizas "pods" that float in the Xochimilco canals of Mexico City; Ivan Puig's SEFT-1 (Manned Railway Exploration Probe) on wheels, which is mapping eight abandoned Mexican railroads; Lucas Bambozzi's exploration of technological obsolescence; and Rejani Cantoni's research and works in interactive cinema.
Another multi-panel presentation was organized around Theory and History of Media Art. In one of them Edward Shanken argued for the need of a hybrid discourse and shared conceptual ground between Contemporary Art and New Media. Perhaps not coincidentally in Dortmund, is the exemplary work of curator Inke Arns, the artistic director of Hartware MedienKunstVerein (HMKV). A key ISEA partner, Hartware has consistently produced groundbreaking exhibitions that include old and new, analog and digital technologies as part of larger conceptual explorations. And the Arctic Perspective, curated by Inke Arns, Matthew Biederman, and Marko Peljhabeing, was no different. Focusing on the Polar region the exhibition displayed research and prototypes for transportation, communication and a mobile habitation system, that at times seem to belong to another planet. The Arctic Perspective Initiative (API) is a non-profit international organization supporting the cultural and ecological significance of the Polar region by combining traditional local knowledge with sustainable developments of science and technology. The exhibition was being showcased at the PHOENIX Halle, a spectacular 1895 factory hall belonging to the giant former steel production plant of Phoenix-West, located in the outskirts of the city, in which Hartware has been based since 2003.
The new Hartware galleries are located downtown in the U building (still under construction), a former brewery redesigned to house multiple cultural institutions. On the top of the building, giant video screens dominate the cityscape day and night with a wonderful selection of site-specific projections. The exhibition TRUST, curated by Broeckmann and Riekeles was showcased there. It included works by fourteen international artists who "deal with the trust we put in people, in media and in machines - out of desire for security, for entertainment, or for comfort." A few artists in the exhibition connected the gallery to the public space. The knowbotic research "macghillie_just a void", 2009, employed a camouflage suit for participatory public performances that keep users visible yet anonymous in the city. In Antoine Schmitt Time Slip, 2008, a wall gallery display continuously showed the news in scrolling text. Time Slip employed custom-build software that fed from official news agencies while conjugating every sentence in the future tense, and thus predicting disturbing trajectories such as "A plane will crash in Madrid killing 153 people." The prediction of events makes us smile but also wonder about invisible forces controling our lives.
Not far, also in the U was Bill Seaman's Exchange Fields, 2000. This interactive video installation was comprised of three screens side by side and thirteen austere geometric sculptures distributed in front of them, each a case for a body part - say an ankle, an arm, or one's back - which viewers used to trigger related video images. Aside from the ingenious interface, juxtaposing our flesh to the steel history of the Ruhr, I found the installation disappointing mostly because of its cliche images of dancers. Shouldn't interactive art be about a less traditional kind of representation and aesthetic experience?
The translation between an input and an output of a different modality was the focus of many of the artworks displayed in the ISEA's main exhibition titled "Electronic Atmospheres" at the Museum fur Kunst und Kulturgeschichte: "the freezing of water translated into sound, the decomposition of leaves made audible, human hairs used as a sound source" were a few among twenty-nine works by thirty-seven artists from sixteen countries, selected by a jury from over a thousand entries. A particular focus of Electronic Atmospheres was three artists from Brazil selected by Giselle Beiguelman from the Instituto Sergio Motta in Sao Paulo. Among them was Lucas Bambozzi's Mobile Crash, an interactive video installation that explored technological obsolescence. Four large video projections with sound surrounded viewers with images of a sledgehammer repeatedly destroying cell phones, circuit boards and other electronic gadgets. The rhythm and sequences of images responded to viewers' movements and gestures, accelerating in seed and scale of destruction as one continued to engage the work. This cathartic experience of consumer's revenge allowed participants to become conductors, as if leading a Luigi Russolo's Futurist orchestra a century later.
Mobile phones were also referenced by Peter Weibel's keynote lecture. And although they continue to be essential in our lives, Weibel pointed out that the mobile phone represents the end of an era of multimedia still based on the mechanical - and thus on wheels - adding that classical media theory is an extension of the organs and it is therefore analog. Weibel's lecture titled "The Tongue That Sees: Neuroaesthetics, Molecular Aesthetics and Media Aesthetics" focused on synesthesia and cognition, and thus the shift from representation to perception, from simulation to stimulation, as well as the passage from recording technologies to stimuli in the brain.
Across the street from the Museum fur Kunst und Kulturgeschichte, at the Dormunder Kunstverein, the exhibition Exchange Emergences showcased four artists in collaboration with the Japan Media Arts Festival and the Austrian Coded Cultures Festival. Ei Wada's Braun Tube Jazz Band reversed a TV light output into sound input, thus turning a number of TV monitors into performance drums, which the artist played with talent and flair often accompanied by participating audiences. Nearby, in the Westfalenforum gallery, the exhibition "Heavy Matter: Rethinking the Role of Material and Medium in the Present" showcased a strong selection of works by twenty-two students of the Academy of Media arts Cologne. The last keynote lecture in Dormund was delivered to a full auditorium. In the Orchesterzentrum Margaret Morse's "Out of Synch" examined the crisis of concepts such as "media" and the gap between how we talk and make "media art."
Duisburg and the second and last weekend of the program
Duisburg is Europe's largest inland port located at the mouth of the Rhine and Ruhr rivers. It has been an axis not just for industrial coal and steel shipping, but also as a connection between Central and Western Europe since the middle ages. Unfortunately, I could not stay for this part of the program focusing on the urban space, and including Charlemagne Palestine's organ concert in the St. Maximilian Church.
In contrast to symposia and festivals located in "non-places," such as convention centers in large cities, ISEA 2010 Ruhr engaged the region bringing about significant change. The strategic articulations between nomad, transnational and site-specific elements characterized the symposium and were central, for instance, to the exhibition Arctic Perspective as well as to the Latin American Forum. ISEA 2010, infused with creative thinking and new technologies, highlighted a rebirth in the Ruhr. We look forward to the upcoming collaborations in 2011 in Istanbul and in 2012 in Albuquerque.

Szulc, Shea selected to Weekly Honor Roll
PLYMOUTH, N.H. – Following a thrilling win at Framingham State on Saturday, a pair of Plymouth State University football players were recognized by the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC).
Juniors Jacob Szulc (Concord, N.H.) and Matt Shea (Windham, N.H.) were selected to the MASCAC Football Weekly Honor Roll after their contributions to the Panthers' 29-28 win over the Rams.
A 6-2 wide receiver, Szulc had a career day after hauling in four catches for a career-high 149 yards. One play after falling behind 20-13 in the fourth quarter, his 80-yard TD reception down the left sideline pulled the Panthers even. It was the third 100-yard receiving game of Szulc's career and the most receiving yards for a Panthers' receiver since the 2015 season.
A 5-8 defensive back, Shea led the Panthers with a team-high eight tackles (six solo). His biggest contribution came on the Rams' second to last play from scrimmage. On third and 19 from PSU's 41-yard line, Shea knocked an FSU receiver out of bounds at the 35-yard line forcing a Hail Mary attempt as opposed to a field goal try with less than 20 seconds to play.
It was the first weekly honor for Szulc, while Shea picks up his second weekly recognition of the season.
Plymouth State (3-3, 2-3 MASCAC) returns home for another league contest on Saturday (Oct. 20). The Panthers host Massachusetts Maritime Academy at Currier Field with a 1:00 p.m. kickoff.

With four new teeth (yes four, nature is cruel like that!) on their way through and a double ear infection, Lola hasn't been her normal chipper self this week. Not able to go to day care, she spent the week at home. Thankfully Grandma was able to come and spend a few days with Lola, so that mom wouldn't get fired for taking more time off after just returning from a 13 month maternity leave.
Even with all that badness going on, she is still a pretty happy kid!
Okay, nobody can be happy all the time!Daddy and Lola comparing their feet.

The Ministry of Health says Cuban paediatricians are among some of the medical personnel who will soon be deployed to health facilities in Trinidad and Tobago to provide health services.
This forms part of the Technical Cooperation Agreement in Healthcare between this county and the Republic of Cuba.
The Ministry says these medical practitioners will work in health facilities which are currently operational within the public health sector.
The statement says that Minister Terrence Deyalsingh did not indicate that paediatricians and paediatric cardiologists will work at the Couva Hospital "as was erroneously reported in the daily newspapers".
It adds that this initiative is one element of the Ministry of Health's overall thrust to enhance the service delivery associated with infant health in Trinidad and Tobago and to achieve national Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.

Good Morning 20 – 1974
Print – Lithograph on Arches Archival Paper 35" x 24"
Edition: Signed in pencil and marked EA
Born in Wuxi, China in 1929, but raised in Shanghai, Walesse Ting is a self-taught painter, sculptor, graphic artist, and poet who began his life as an artist at a very young age, painting on sidewalks. He left China in 1949 and settled for a six year period in Paris beginning in 1952, where he lived as a poor struggling artist but became acquainted with artists Karel Appel, Asger Jorn, and Pierre Alechinsky, members of the avant-garde group called COBRA.
Ting arrived in New York in 1958 at the height of the Abstract Expressionist period. He befriended the American artist, Sam Francis, and the movement had a profound influence on his work. Unlike in Paris, Ting could paint and sell his work. Bold dripping strokes featured in his paintings, which at that time were mainly poetic abstractions in the manner of the Paris-based Chinese artist, Zao Wouki. Only in the 1970s did Ting develop his now distinctive style using Chinese calligraphic brushstrokes to define outlines and filling f

Zain Imam, who is playing for Lucknow Nawabs in Ekta Kapoor and Anand Mishra's MTV BCL, says that he loves being part of the tournament. The actor adds that the matches also help him be in shape. "I wanted to feel the MTV BCL air around. Also, it's a way of keeping your body fit by playing, which we hardly get time for," he says.
He adds, "I have been part of MTV earlier and I am very well aware that a lot of youth are going to be hooked on to this."
The actor admits that some adjustment needs to be done to take out time for BCL. "We need to check with the production houses of our shows, for date adjustments for projects like these and fight for that. But everyone is very understanding," he says.
The actor has always had a special place for sports in his heart. "I have been a sportsperson during my school and college days. This is why I was so excited to be part of BCL," he says.
Talking about his aim in the tournament, Zain says, "The main task and responsibility is to keep the opponents score low by good bowling and fielding. I feel Mumbai Tigers are our biggest competition in the tournament," he says.
Imam is playing the lead in Star Plus' 'Naamkarann'.

Packed lunches for children fail good health test
NINE out of ten children's lunch boxes contain double the recommended daily intake of sugar and nearly half of the safe daily allowance for salt and saturated fats, a survey found.
A sample of 556 lunch boxes for the Food Standards Agency found that the most common items were white-bread sandwiches of ham or cheese, a packet of crisps, a chocolate bar or cake, and a fruit squash drink. Just under half included fresh fruit — usually an apple or a banana — and few contained fresh vegetables such as carrot sticks or cherry tomatoes.
The social class or wealth of a family made no difference to the make-up of the lunch boxes, although the poorest children, who qualify for free lunches, tended not to


text: Chicago is standing hard. The homies Angel Davanport and Solar 5 deliver and astounding performance that serves as a case of art imitating life. And we know what kind of life it imitates, as the red, grey, and white textures that pervade the video give us the brooding feeling of the reality of Chicago streets we were/are washed in. A throw forward, this is the lane with a tone that Psychodrama and Triple Darkness would have driven down if the nineties were now. Listen and visit the cemetery, a place made unsettling yet beautiful through this portrait. Don't try this at work.

AMHERST — Over a decade after singing in a "Hodie" holiday benefit concert as a student at Smith College, Arianne Abela will take the stage again as a conductor and co-producer of a new iteration of the show benefiting the Sidney F. Smith Toy Fund.
This year's choral concert will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 14 at Amherst College's Buckley Recital Hall and will feature singers from local choruses and the five colleges. There is no admission fee, and aside from printing and publicity expenses, all donations will benefit the Toy Fund.
Hodie, which means "this day" in Latin, was first produced by choral singer Brit Albritton in 2004, while Deanna Joseph, then an assistant director of choral activities at Smith College, served as the program's artistic director.
Abela, now the director of the Amherst College choral program, said that the Hodie shows were essential in steering her toward a career in music.
"It was really the reason I started to be interested in conducting," Abela said of her experience with the fundraising concerts. Initially planning to earn a government degree, Abela was swayed to major in music as she worked under Joseph's mentorship; she went on to sing in all Hodie concerts during her time at Smith.
Abela, who due to a congenital condition is missing most of her fingers and has a prosthetic left leg, said that participating in the Hodie concerts also played an essential role in teaching her how to "overpower and overcome that insecurity" that came with her physical disabilities.
"Singing in Hodie back in the day was so life-changing for me because it showed me the power of community and coming together through music," Abela said.
She continued, "These physical challenges, they didn't matter, and people like Brit really helped me overcome those challenges, so it's really special and sentimental for me to come back and do Hodie."
After graduating from Smith, Abela earned master's and doctorate degrees in conducting; she also has helped to organize various benefit concerts in her work with the Musicians Take a Stand organization, and in 2013, she was a quarterfinalist on NBC's "America's Got Talent," appearing with her group the 3 Penny Chorus and Orchestra.
When Albritton learned that Abela had been appointed as director of the choral program at Amherst College, both musicians knew that they needed to bring back the Hodie concert.
"Now that I've returned (to the area) over 10 years since graduating," Abela said, "Brit and I decided it would be fun to start again ... Ever since I left here, I've kind of been dedicating myself to these charities."
Three Hodie shows have been held to benefit the Toy Fund in 2005, 2006 and 2007, Albritton said.
In its first year benefiting the Toy Fund, the concert raised $1,988.
Albritton said that his friend Laurel Gardner, who works at the Gazette, initially suggested the Toy Fund as a beneficiary, which Albritton embraced as "a great cause."
Abela also welcomed the opportunity to benefit the Toy Fund, which she said has become an increasingly moving cause to her now that she has a two-year-old daughter of her own.
"I just think about kids who actually won't have gifts," Abela said, "and I think it's an important part of not just the holiday season, but the way that we help one another all of the time, and respect one another and give back to the community and especially the kids."
She continued, "They deserve to have gifts and joy, so it just seemed like the perfect thing to do. To me, children represent that innocence and joy that we have sometimes lost in our everyday life."
Abela and Albritton said that the concerts also help to bring the community together during a busy and sometimes difficult time of the year.
"It's been an awful two years for a lot of people," Albritton said "and finding music like nothing else can really provide an opportunity to find solidarity and peace in the midst of a difficult time."
Named after a former business manager at the Gazette, the Toy Fund began in 1933 to help families in need during the Depression. Today, the fund distributes vouchers worth $40 to families for each child from age 1 to 14. Eligible families must live in any Hampshire County community except Ware, or in the southern Franklin County towns of Deerfield, Sunderland, Whately, Shutesbury and Leverett.
Berkshire Children & Families at 220 Russell St., Suite 200 in Hadley, MA 01035, verifies families' eligibility and the Gazette covers costs associated with the drive, freeing all donations to fund the vouchers.
The following stores are participating this year: A2Z Science and Learning Store, 57 King St., Northampton; Deals & Steals, 1 Pearl St., Northampton; Faces, 175 Main St. Northampton; JCPenney, 341 Russell St., Hadley (store only); The ToyBox, 201 N. Pleasant St., Amherst; Target, 367 Russell St. Hadley (store only); Sam's Outdoor Outfitters, 227 Russell St., Hadley; Odyssey Bookshop, 9 College St., Village Commons, South Hadley; Wilson's Dept. Store, 258 Main St., Greenfield; World Eye Bookshop/Magical Child, 134 Main St., Greenfield.
Donations to the Toy Fund may be dropped off at or mailed to the Daily Hampshire Gazette, P.O. Box 299, Northampton, MA, 01061, or made through Gazettenet at gazettenet.com.
Checks should be made payable to the Sidney F. Smith Toy Fund.

Theresa Lola's debut full length poetry collection
'In Search of Equilibrium' (Nine Arches Press, February 2019)
Theresa Lola's debut poetry collection In Search of Equilibrium is an extraordinary, and exacting study of death and grieving. Where the algorithms of the body and the memory fail, Lola finds the words that will piece together the binary code of family and restart the recovery program. In doing so, these unflinching poems work towards the hard-wired truths of life itself - finding hope in survival, lines of rescue in faith, a stubborn equilibrium in the equations of loss and renewal. - Jane Commane, Editor, Nine Arches Press
Theresa Lola is joint winner of the 2018 Brunel International African Poetry Prize

As a writer, reviews and criticism are the building blocks of what I do. Writing about art is a passion of mine, thanks to a deep appreciation for the subject. It is my firm belief that with any subjective body of work (music, literature, film), it is constructive and intelligent criticism which drives ingenuity and creativity, and so I will always champion critical writing.
Another local website, the Double Negative likewise champions critical writing, and this revolution in thoughtful criticism brings a healthy sense of debate to the art world and maybe more importantly, to Liverpool's buzzing local art scene.
It is in the light of a tidal wave of negative, depressing reviews from big, national papers about Liverpool Biennial 2014 that I write this piece. (NB. My personal opinion of the exhibition is not relevant here). For me, and I'm sure there are many out there that would agree, being an art critic is not about having a moan. It's not about hating everything and being frustratingly aloof about your reasoning. This apathetic form of journalism is most probably a much wider epidemic, but having kept up to date with this particular series of reviews I feel compelled to take these as my example:
Of the numerous reviews slating the Biennial, one which particularly grabbed my attention was somewhat cheaply entitled "Misery on the Mersey". A poor pun if ever there was one. Like I said, art criticism is fantastic, but when did it become the in thing to just straight up hate everything? It's really easy to have a moan, easier than admitting to enjoying something in fact. We all do it day to day; it fuels small talk and can get us through a dull shift at the office. But when it comes to journalism, it's just plain lazy.
"There is a lot of bad art" says this particular offender. Explanation? Zero. The journalist proceeds to eloquently list those pieces she considers "bad art" but does not tell us what her problem with each work actually is. Conclusion: poor writing, potential lack of understanding but most of all, a desperate lack of ideas. Frustratingly, I have noticed this boring, lacklustre template occur in a few recent arts features and find it infuriating that such writing can be given a platform, when really the writer is saying very little at all.
This is by no means to say that criticism is a bad thing – criticism is vitally important. If a writer likes everything, I believe it makes their opinion less credible and their articles ultimately less interesting too. I have written several honest, negative reviews, and in the past have been shocked when local websites and magazines have refused to publish them, because they don't "promote" what is being talked about.
It works both ways; as a writer there is no point in promoting something you don't believe in – it's just not honest. But it is also impossible to believe in an opinion that cannot be substantiated, as this alienates the reader and makes us question your judgement, and whether a said writer actually understands the topic about which they have written.
There is clearly a huge disparity in what passes for critical writing, particularly in the art world, and this is somewhat problematic. On the one hand, we have journalists who are out of ideas and lacking in everything but bull-headed opinion. On the other, we have smaller, independent publishers who want to keep their readers and more importantly the artists/musicians/organisations they represent happy by awarding them positive publicity. Where does the solution to this critical case lie? The answer remains to be seen.

Our areas of expertise
Our expertise spans all water environments –
from rivers and reservoirs, to oceans and coastlines, to cities and factories.
We have a 50-year track record in developing and implementing solutions that meet real-life challenges in water environments worldwide.
So whether you need to save water, share it fairly, improve its quality, quantify its impact or manage its flow, we can help.
All our areas of expertise
DHI Business Applications
Unlock solutions to water challenges with access to real-time data and emerging technologies
From flood protection planning to mine water management, oil spill forecasting to weather adapted control strategies, DHI's Business Applications support the full spectrum of your decision-making needs.
All Business Applications
We set up an Urban On-line Water (UOW) modelling system in Hangzone Sonnenberg (HZS) – the third largest and most complex pressure zone of Zurich. The UOW consisted of on-line hydraulic and water quality models interconnected with the hydraulic and water quality sensors in the network.
Almost all inflows and outflows of the supply zones in the Zurich water System (ZWS) are measured in the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. However, there are only a few water meters within the zone's network and pressure meters are installed in some shafts. Not all of them are integrated in the SCADA system. As such, there's a dearth of information about the behaviour and the actual hydraulic and quality conditions in the network.
WVZ wanted to know more about its network, in order to be able to detect changes in future water quality variations within the network. The solution: an on-line system of hydraulic and water quality models interconnected with hydraulic and water quality sensors in the network.
To help achieve this goal, WVZ started a pilot project together with us, to set up a UOW system in Hangzone Sonnenberg (HZS) – the third largest pressure zone of Zurich.
This will help WVZ gain actual information about the hydraulic conditions, the mixing of water from different sources and the water quality in the network. In so doing, WVZ hopes to improve the system's overall performance (in terms of economy, service level and safety), through an increased ability to control and manage issues related to water flow, quality and security.

Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia became members of NATO along with four other countries in 2004, as the military alliance expanded to include formerly Communist countries in Central and Eastern Europe. At the time, then-Russian Defense Minister Sergei B. Ivanov criticized the move and said the Baltic states "are consumers of security, not producers" — ironically, a point the Republican nominee appeared to touch upon Wednesday.
NATO's overall budget for 2016 is about $1.3 billion. According to statistics released by NATO, Washington pays about 22.1 percent of that, by far the most in the alliance. They are followed by Germany (14.7 percent), France (10.6) Britain (9.8) and Italy (8.4). Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia each pay less than 0.5 percent of NATO's budget.
Defense spending by NATO countries has been a thorny issue this year not only with Trump but with President Obama. The focus has generally been on countries meeting their commitment to spend 2 percent of their budgets on defense, rather than contributing more to NATO's overall budget.
In April, Obama called for European nations to do more to support the military campaign against the Islamic State and to each contribute their "full share — 2 percent of GDP — towards our common security." The president added, "That is something that doesn't always happen — and I'll be honest: Sometimes Europe has been complacent about its own defense."
In an interview for the Atlantic magazine published in March, Obama also criticized "free riders" who are "pushing us to act but then showing an unwillingness to put any skin in the game."
New NATO documents show that in 2016, the United States will spend about 3.6 percent of its GDP on defense. Estonia will spend about 2.2 percent, with Latvia and Lithuania setting aside just less than 1.5 percent. Estonia spent about 2 percent in 2015, with Latvia and Lithuania about 1 percent.
The only other countries spending 2 percent in 2016 are Greece (2.4 percent), Britain (2.21) and Poland (2). France is close, spending about 1.8 percent.
As of this month, the Baltic countries combined had a few dozen troops among the 12,900 deployed to Afghanistan as part of the NATO-led training mission, Operation Resolute Support.
Each nation, along with Poland, also recently committed to hosting a battalion of troops from NATO to deter Russian aggression. The United States will send one from the Army to Poland, with Britain, Germany and Canada preparing to establish multinational battalions of a similar size in Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia, respectively.
Trump, asked in an interview by the New York Times what he would do if Russia invaded one of the Baltic states, said there are NATO nations that are not "not paying the bills."
"You can't forget the bills," Trump told the Times. "They have an obligation to make payments. Many NATO nations are not making payments, are not making what they're supposed to make. That's a big thing. You can't say forget that."
The NATO treaty, first signed in 1949, holds that members agree that "an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all." If an attack occurs, the treaty continues, each member will assist whoever is attacked by taking "such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area."
The treaty mentions nothing specific about paying bills but says that members promise they "will maintain and develop their individual and collective capacity to resist armed attack." NATO calls for each member to provide collective funding for NATO operations and oversight, and agreed in 2006 to each spend 2 percent of their GDP on national defense.
Trump's comments have prompted criticism from some U.S. officials. Rep. Eliot L. Engel (N.Y.), the ranking Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said Thursday in a statement that the remarks show that "NATO may be facing one of its biggest threats": Trump.
"The Republican standard-bearer has again made clear that he does not view America's commitment to NATO as ironclad, suggesting that we might not abide by our Article 5 obligations if Russia invaded the Baltic countries," Engel said, calling it music to Russian President Vladimir Putin's ears.
Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R.-S.C.), a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and frequent critic of Trump's when both were running for president, called on Trump to clarify his remarks and said they made the United States less safe. Putin, he said, is a "happy man" hearing them.
"The Republican nominee for president is essentially telling the Russians and other bad actors that the United States is not fully committed to supporting the NATO alliance," Graham said. "NATO has been the most successful organization in modern history to provide collective defense for democracies."

How do the white people of Maycomb feel about the outcome of the trial in To Kill a Mockingbird?

The white people of Maycomb are all glad the trial is over, but their reaction depends on how they felt before the trial.
Atticus is sad that he lost, but he expected to. He tells Tom Robinson that he can appeal, but Tom tries to escape and is shot. Atticus regrets not having been able to save him.
I guess Tom was tired of white men's chances and preferred to take his own. (ch 24)
He knows that life will go on, and he has taught his children a valuable lesson about race and persistence.
Aunt Alexandra shows a rare burst of emotion. She feels sorry for Atticus.
"I'm sorry, brother," she murmured. Having never heard her call Atticus "brother" before, I stole a glance at Jem, but he was not listening. (ch 22)
Although she often seems harsh, Alexandra actually is very supportive of Atticus. She came to Maycomb to be there for him during the difficult trial.
Jem cries. He saw the evidence, and was old enough to understand it. He realizes that there was no way Robinson was guilty, but he was convicted anyway.
"It ain't right, Atticus," said Jem.
"No son, it's not right." (ch 22)
Jem gets a harsh lesson in unfairness. Atticus also feels that it is not fair, but knows that there is little he can do about it.
Miss Stephanie Crawfold, the neighborhood gossip, is just glad there are so many juicy tidbits to collect. She bombards the Finch children with questions, even asking them how they feel about seeing their father lose.
Bob Ewell is angry. He feels that Atticus made a fool of him during the trial, since everyone knows what really happened even though Robinson was convicted. Miss Stephanie Crawford gleefully tells the children about an incident between him and their father.
Atticus was leaving the post office when Mr. Ewell approached him, cursed him, spat on him, and threatened to kill him. (ch 23)
Atticus does not succumb to the fight. He tells Ewell he is too old, and tells his kids he wishes Ewell didn't chew tabacco. Eventually, Bob attacks his children. Boo Radley saves them.

Writing. Research. Education.
Building social impact spaces.
Intellectual curiosity and a love for research combined with a passion for learning and knowledge has gifted me with unique communication, information management, and technology skills. I'm privileged by my higher education, academic librarianship, and pioneering experiences with networked library systems, online learning, digital libraries, and open access digital repositories.
My Ph.D. is in Library and Information Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Joining the program at a critically transformative time for libraries, I received an interdisciplinary education in traditional and emerging digital libraries. My dissertation integrated research and design. I investigated user behaviors, and then, using the WWW technologies and standards I transformed a print journal. I created a prototype hypermedia journal for information work in the health sciences.
I have taught at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, University of California at Los Angeles, University of California at Santa Barbara, and University of Arizona, Tucson. My research has been published in ISI-ranked peer reviewed Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, Journal of Education for Library and Information Science Education, Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Journal of Documentation, Knowledge Organization and presented at international and national conferences such as the American Library Association, American Society for Information Science and Technology, European Conference on Digital Libraries, International Society for Knowledge Organization, International Federation of Library Associations, and the Joint Conference on Digital Libraries. My professional honors include: An ALA/ Library Journal Movers & Shakers award given to those shaping the future of libraries for my pioneering work establishing dLIST the first open access repository in the multi-disciplinary Information Sciences; American Library Association and the Library of Congress for Metadata Education; Digital Library leadership from the American Society for Information Science and Technology; Outstanding faculty award for teaching, School of Information, University of Arizona, Tucson, and numerous others.
I want to make a difference.
I am a scholar leveraging my classical library, communications, digital media, and instructional technologies expertise for social justice. I aim to empower learning, increase awareness to build strong communities, and improve the quality of life for all people. I am a PC(USA) ordained Deacon, anti-racism facilitator, contemplative, and lay theologian who teaches Bible Studies and crafts liturgies integrated with the practices of mindfulness. I am a trained facilitator for the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises.
In 2012, I began to experiment with publishing and writing creative realism genres that combine the power of literary research, macro-social statistics, local theologies, and intimate, personal narratives. Such writing has often brought activism into my life. I try to extend grace to all people, including faith leaders, and publicly elected officials. Being a voice of hope and healing in polarizing situations is my hall-mark. I've been called a "change agent", an "innovation champion" and "Barnabas" after the New Testament character who was so encouraging that it became his name!
In 2015, I founded the Anti-racism Digital Library and International Anti-racism Thesaurus. I continue to curate it and have shared two papers about how the ADL can be used to teach anti-racism along with the ACRL Information Competency Framework at the 2016 and 2017 Annual Conference of the American Theological Library Association.
In 2018, I increased awareness of the OC homelessness crisis by founding Irvine for Everyone, a grassroots advocacy initiative and community education campaign. To demystify homelessness, I created the I4E /Housing for Everyone digital library and housing hub. I am grateful to the PC(USA), Presbyterian Women, Inc., friends from interfaith groups, clubs, and non-profits for coming alongside as partners.
Reading, gardening, yoga, dance, volunteering, digital photography and droning, while also spending time with family and friends are some of my favorite activities.
Thank you for visiting.

This time, Eric Pickles, secretary of UK community has joined one of the multi-faith processions started from Southwark Cathedral to the famous Borough Market. The main aim of this procession is to make Apple Day and Harvest Festival memorable. The procession was actually part of Year of Service, which is one of the supporting programs of UK Government. Year of Service is one of the popular programs organized by nine faith groups for sharing their justice and compassion values. Andrew Nunn, Dean of Southwark Cathedral has lead one of the small worship act at Borough Market. In addition, in the worship act, Nunn has given gifts, which have been accumulated for two local organizations named Robes Project and Manna Center. These organizations actually work for several homeless people.
According to Mr. Eric Pickles, "Just as ancient Southwark Cathedral and ancient Borough Market exist simultaneously, in the same way, sharing of same community as well as drawing of similar services may give mutual benefit to all. In this way, our communities and our faith become very strong when we go for working together." Apple Day is not only celebrated in Borough Market, but also in other popular markets of UK. This includes QM Farmers Market, Camden Market, Dover Street Market and Newington Farmers Market and many more. This time, different local shops of Camden Market have offered some attractive gifts to the children for celebrating Apple Day. In fact, Apple Day has become popular in Camden market after its renovation process performed by Bebo Kobo with the help of ESA Designers. ESA Designers are popularly known for offering best design level and technical expertise in several architectural sectors.

SPANGENBERG, Izak (Sakkie) J. J.. Psalm 73 and the book of Qoheleth. Old testam. essays [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.1, pp.151-175. ISSN 2312-3621. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2312-3621/2016/v29n1a10.
The author of Ps 73 and the author of Qoheleth both underwent experiences that did not accord with the traditional wisdom paradigm. The author of Qoheleth stated that he saw how the righteous suffered an early death while the wicked grew old (Qoh 7:15). The author of Ps 73 saw how impious folks experienced health, wealth and prosperity, while he "kept his heart pure and his hands clean" (Ps 73:13). Both authors tried to come to terms with these contradictions in life. One wrote a whole book, the other a poem, and both of them made use of quotations to argue their case. However, while the author of Qoheleth undermined the traditional wisdom paradigm, the author of Ps 73 tried to keep it intact. The author of Qoheleth concluded that nothing made sense; everything was futile, especially if the doctrine of retribution is used as a benchmark. The author of Ps 73, on the other hand, followed another route. He redefined the outcomes of shalom. In doing this, he successfully kept the traditional wisdom paradigm intact.
Keywords : aphorism; wisdom saying; wisdom paradigm; doubt; impious folks; pious Israelite; Psalm of Asaph; Qoheleth; doctrine of retribution.

It's been quite the year for Philly.
Meek Mill has been freed and the city just went up against Tom Brady's Patriots to clinch a Super Bowl win with backup quarterback Nick Foles. Now, the 76ers are on their way, too. For the first time since 2012, the 76ers have made it past the first round of the playoffs thanks to dominating an aging Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat. In honor of the dynasty-to-be making it to the Eastern Semifinals, here's what was poppin' in pop culture the last time they were owning the NBA playoffs.
Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know"
Gotye literally became someone we used to know after his smash hit catapulted to the top of the Billboard and we never heard of him again.

I have to say, that in my experience, the only company who practices full disclosure is AboveNet. Even to outsiders, they have the current capacity and usage levels of just about every single link in their network, as well as their tech announcements archive open to the public. I've seen other "pretty" network status pages from providers, but none show you the useful information you need. It's much better than hiding your dirty laundry. It's like when you bring your car to a shop that has a big glass window onto the waiting area, so you can see how they work on your car, as opposed to the shop where it's all closed off, and behind the scenes they're screwing around, and all you know is that is comes back hardly repaired, but with a "we care about your car" floormat. This is what I told all the vultures from UUnet, internap, and the like, that called me after the recent AboveNet incident, to tell me how much better their services are. -SteveK > On 25 May 2000, Sean Donelan wrote: > > > > > On Wed, 24 May 2000, "Jeff Wheat" wrote: > > > Does anyone know what happened on Monday?

In our previous work, a web server has been built to predict protein-ligand binding sites based on automatically extracted templates. However, a drawback of such templates is that the web server was prone to resulting in many false positive matches. In this study, we present a sequence-order constraint to reduce the false positive matches of using automatically extracted templates to predict protein-ligand binding sites. The binding site predictor comprises i) an automatically constructed template library and ii) a local structure alignment algorithm for querying the library. The sequence-order constraint is employed to identify the inconsistency between the local regions of the query protein and the templates. Experimental results reveal that the sequence-order constraint can largely reduce the false positive matches and is effective for template-based binding site prediction. %P 1456 - 1462

Termination of a lease agreement
Relocation for your Homecoming: Cancellation of a Lease Contract on Departure
How to start and execute the termination of a lease effectively. At some point, each assignment comes to an end: then the expat and the family have to leave their current home. For this purpose, a Tenancy Notice Letter must be sent to the landlord within the contract notice period.
But this may not be particularly easy for foreigners and expats without using the correct contractual language skills of the host country. Relevant legal standards need to be observed, so that the rental notice is fully effective. The end of a lease is the most likely time for conflicts with the landlord, so it is better done with the support of relocation specialists. Specific relocation services are also available for the return handover of the apartment and the repayment of the deposit.
How to get out of a lease? The service list offered by Anders Consulting relocation services gives all the answers on how the cancellation of a lease agreement is best handled in a reliable manner:
Giving up an apartment with gain but no pain!
"When sending the lease termination letter for your home to the landlord at the end of a relocation project, many things can go badly wrong. If the landlord does not react to a presumably invalid notice of termination of lease, this can mean that one needs to remain the tenant for an extended time and much longer than expected. Such an incident causes real pain!
Therefore, ideally everything should work smoothly at the first attempt. If you have already commissioned us to assist you in finding a home at the beginning of the assignment and you are now leaving Germany or changing the city, a copy of the lease is still in our files. That will enable us to start the termination process right away!
With the termination of the apartment there are other activities, which you as an expat should start, and in which Anders Consulting, of course, gladly supports you, (e.g. the determination of the need for cosmetic repairs). Are they required at all? If yes, we take care of inviting offers, prepare cost estimates and assign craftsmen on your behalf for the renovation, waste disposal or final cleaning.
We will be happy to assist you with the return of the apartment so that you do not unwittingly enter into new commitments, costs or problems. All you want is to give up the flat! And finally, we ensure that you will receive repayment of the rental security whilst you are abroad. This way the project of leaving the apartment will go well in all respects. Don´t worry – we´ll manage it!"

10 tips on the termination of lease contracts for housing
1. A termination of a lease agreement is a unilateral legal transaction. Anyone who is awaiting a confirmation, so that the declaration of consent is effective, is subject to an error of law
2. A termination shall always be subject to access, i.e. it must effectively reach the recipient in such a way that (based on normal circumstances) the recipient is able to take notice of it
3. For the delivery of the notice of termination of lease, the best option is to take a courier service whose delivery agent has previously made a note of the contents of the consignment. Or take an independent witness with you if you put the written notice into the mailbox by yourself. When mailing the letter, select normal registered mail. Taking registered mail / note of delivery, the letter might not be picked up actively by the recipient with the result that there's no access and an invalid termination
4. If nothing else is stipulated in the rental agreement, the rented property can be terminated with a notice period of three months at the end of the month. There are three days of grace period, but you should not cancel at the last minute
5. Temporary and fixed tenancy agreements cannot be properly terminated before their expiration date, as they are deemed to be fixed. In return the tenancy does not extend, if one simply remains in the property
6. If there are several, collaborative landlords with different addresses, the notice of termination of the flat must be declared to each of them. Also, all tenants must declare the termination, otherwise it is invalid
7. Tenancy notice letters must be made in writing and signed by all tenants. An e-mail or SMS is not enough. In the event of an authorization of a third party, an original of the certificate of power of attorney must be attached to the written notice
8. In principle, all provisions for the termination of a tenancy apply not only to unfurnished flats, but also to furnished apartments, temporary accommodation and houses
9. The day after the last day of the period of the rental contract is the last day for the timely return of the apartment (if it is not a national holiday). Therefore, the tenant should consider the time required for possible cosmetic repairs, renovation and a key handover in good time
The rent is due until the end of the rental contract and cannot be offset with the rental deposit

Patrick O'Meehan sent me this outstanding photograph he took of a cottonmouth in Post Oak Creek along the Post Oak Creek trail. Note the dark cheek stripe trimmed in white. The crossbands that display so prominently in this individual will fade into a solid dark color with age. This species eats nearly every variety of vertebrate available including frogs, reptiles, fish, birds, and mammals. Generally, these snakes are not aggressive, but if you are bitten you should seek medical attention immediately to minimize the damage to tissue and the very remote chance of death.

This track has been extensively revised since the previous entries.
The beginning rises through a narrow strip of planted bush before starting on the main track up which zigzags up the hillside. The whole ascent took us a leisurely 1hr 15mins, the first hour of which is on the wide track big enough to take a vehicle, this is quite steep in parts and has slippery mud in several places if there has been recent rain. After an hour on this track we got to the steeper top track where there are stairs constructed and gravel paths in between, from here it took about 15-20 minutes to the top and the weather was kind and gave us some view. There are no stiles to cross and certainly no chain to pull yourself up on anymore.
The return trip took us 45 minutes.
There are 2 long drop toilets available, the first is just above the carpark and the second is about ten minutes further up.
One of the highlights of this track is a 5 minute section in giant King ferns.

NE 6th and NE Halsey
Keaton Otis was a young Black man murdered by the Portland police over five years ago, May 12, 2010. The police admitted they stopped him for "looking like a gangster." They shot him 23 times after tazing him while he sat in the driver's seat. Later police said Keaton had a gun, but have yet to produce it.
Keaton's father Fred Bryant held a monthly vigil on the 12th of every month since his son's murder on the spot where Keaton's life was taken. Fred Bryant did this for over three years, fighting for justice for his son, every single month in the rain, the dark, the heat, the snow. Fred Bryant passed away October 29, 2013.
His family and community have committed to continuing the vigils every month on the 12th, until justice is achieved for Keaton, for Fred, for our whole community.
Please join that struggle this month and help to spread the word.

PI BES Interface (i.e. PI EMDVB): aliasing of Unit Names
Currently the interface creates PI UnitBatches or Event Frames associated to Units (PI Units or AF Elements) determined by some placeholders specified at the "Unit Procedure" level; the default is "[AREA][PROCESSCELL][UNIT]".
Moreover the interface properly created a PI MDB or AF structure under an alternate module path, specified in "Batch Setup" section (/SMP parameter).
It would be useful to have a way to specify different Units instead of the one determined by the [UNIT] placeholder (at least).
As an example, suppose we want to register unit batches for a PI Unit called Reactor1" when the [UNIT] placeholder values "U6-K54100", and unit batches for a PI Unit called "Reactor2" when the [UNIT] placeholder values "U6-K54200".

At Oshkosh 2019, our entire team was delighted to hear all the wonderful stories about how the Lynx® was saving lives and making an impact on the industry. One of our customers, Greg Wright, agreed to do a video testimonial of his experiences with the Lynx ADS-B transponder.
L3Harris' Lynx® is a proud sponsor of of the Aeroshell Acrobatic Team. We caught up with Steve Gustafson, long-time pilot and the left wing for the team at Oshkosh to get his thoughts on Lynx.
Lynx® is proud sponsor of the Citizen of the World, a world peace mission connecting the South Pole to the North Pole and everywhere in between. Learn about this important quest to bring unity and peace through aviation in this short video.
Listen to John Stenzel, a current airline pilot and Cub owner, talk about how the Lynx® is a very natural, user friendly, trouble free piece of equipment that improves his situational awareness while flying his personal Cub airplane.
Aeroshell entertains hundreds of thousands of folks every year doing a tactically choreographed air ballet of loops and rolls. Unlike our performance, the L3 Lynx NGT-9000 touchscreen transponder and MFD provides a straight and level solution to meet the ADS-B mandate while also adding much needed situational awareness to our "Flying Office."
Team Lead Aeroshell, T-6 Texan
"The Lynx NGT 9000 is so awesome and offers more than I expected! I flew in an Airshow this last weekend at Air Expo here in Minnesota. I had fun showing it off to the other T-34 guys!"
Aerobatic Pilot, Beech T-34
"I love my Lynx – the touch screen, traffic on the 430 and weather and traffic on ForeFlight really gave me what I was looking for in my Piper."
Founder and CEO,
PS Engineering, Inc.
"Given the variety of aircraft we employ, the Lynx NGT-9000 made the most sense for our ADS-B equipage. An ADS-B transponder that also doubles as a display for traffic and weather – this was something no other avionics company could offer us."
President of Christiansen Aviation
"Product features, reliability, and low cost are just a few of the reasons for selecting the Lynx NGT-9000 for our fleet of aircraft. When you're flying in a heavily congested area such as Denver and traffic pops up, having a dedicated screen for traffic allows you to continue flying and navigating the aircraft while still having visibility of others in the pattern."
Aspen Flying Club
"The L3 Lynx NGT-9000 was singled out as the ideal ADS-B solution for our Bell and Sikorsky fleet. Our pilots and passengers safety are paramount in the congested Gulf of Mexico flight environment and a rugged transponder that also displays traffic and weather is a must-have."
Westwind Helicopters
"ADS-B provisioning presents a myriad of choices but the Lynx NGT-9000 stands out above the others. Lynx provides great value and functionality that fits well in our flight training environment."
