1.What is an Erasmus 'study period' and who determines what its content will be?
An Erasmus study period lasts 3-12 months and is an integral part of the student's course of study at their home university or other higher education institution. Full academic recognition of the satisfactorily completed study period abroad must be given, as stipulated in the "learning agreement", which is signed by the student, the home institution and the host institution. The learning agreement is a sort of contract to be completed before the study period begins. It states precisely what modules the student will be studying. At the end of the study period abroad, the host institution provides the Erasmus student, as well as their home institution, with a report recording the results obtained in the agreed programme of study abroad.
Universities and other higher education institutions which participate in the Erasmus programme must have an Erasmus University Charter and be recognised by the national authorities of the country in which they are located. The Erasmus University Charter aims to guarantee the quality of the programme by setting fundamental principles and commitments to be respected by the institutions concerned.
Students registered at a higher education institution holding an "extended" Erasmus University Charter can also benefit from a work placement (traineeship/internship) period in an enterprise or organisation abroad. Full recognition must be given by the home institution for the period spent abroad, based on a "training agreement" approved by all parties before the mobility period starts.
2.How to apply for an Erasmus student mobility grant?
In order to participate in the Erasmus student exchange scheme, a student must fulfil the following conditions:
-be enrolled in a formal programme of study at a participating higher education institution leading to a degree or a diploma (including doctoral level) in one of the 33 participating countries (EU 27 + Croatia, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey)
-to have successfully completed at least the first year of his/her higher education studies (this condition does not apply to work placements).
The vast majority of the EU's universities and other higher education institutions participate in the Erasmus programme. The international relations office or the Erasmus office of the home higher education institution is the first point of contact for information on how to obtain an Erasmus grant. They can provide information on all the Erasmus exchanges which the institution is involved in.
3.How many students have benefited from the Erasmus programme?
Student exchanges through the Erasmus programme have grown consistently since its launch in 1987 and it is expected that the total number of beneficiaries will reach 3 million during the 2012/2013 academic year.

4.How much do Erasmus students receive as a grant?
The average monthly Erasmus grant in the 2009/10 academic year was €254. Demand strongly exceeds the availability of grants in most countries. More than 213 000 students received Erasmus grants to study or benefit from a work placement abroad in 2009/10 - a 7.4% increase (and new record) compared to the previous year.
Grants are allocated to students after undergoing a selection process at their home higher education institution and their acceptance by the host institution or company (for traineeships). The institution hosting the students must not charge them any tuition fees, which is a fundamental principle for Erasmus.
The amount of the grant varies from one country to another, and is not intended to cover all the expenses of the student. Indeed, it is intended to offset part of the difference in the cost of living in the other country.
The European Commission sets a ceiling for the monthly grant per destination country; it is up to the national agencies implementing Erasmus and the higher education institutions to decide how much to the grant should be. Most aim to maximise the number of beneficiaries (students and staff), though some prefer to pay a higher grant to fewer recipients. The national agencies and home institutions can, for instance, take into account the socio-economic background of the student and the distance between home and host institutions. The Erasmus grant can be combined with additional funds provided by the university, the Member States, regions or by other public or private bodies. An increasing number of private companies propose mobility grants and more and more students have now access to student loans from a bank.
5.Is it true that Erasmus also supports staff mobility and language courses?
Yes. The so-called "decentralised actions" to promote individual mobility, run by national agencies in the 33 participating countries, include Erasmus staff mobility for teaching and training, Erasmus Intensive Programmes, and Erasmus Intensive Language Courses .
Erasmus staff mobility
Teaching assignments enable teaching staff to spend a teaching period abroad. This can last from 1 day (at least 5 teaching hours) to 6 weeks at a higher education institution in another country. The objective is to promote excellence in teaching and international cooperation between higher education institutions. Staff mobility accounts for 8% of the overall Erasmus budget. In the 2009/10 academic year, Erasmus funded 29 031 teaching assignments and 8 745 training sessions. Staff training is also available to non-teaching staff.
Growth in staff mobility numbers from 2007/08 to 2009/10
Erasmus Intensive Programmes and Intensive Language Courses
An intensive programme is a short study programme which brings together students and teaching staff from higher education institutions in at least three participating countries. It can last from 10 continuous full days to 6 weeks of subject-related work. The aim is to encourage the teaching of topics which might not otherwise be taught at the individual higher education institutions, and to enable students and teachers to work together in multinational groups. The main features of Erasmus Intensive Programmes are inter- and multidisciplinary innovative approaches. 12 606 students and 4 378 teachers participated in 384 intensive programmes in 2009/10.
Erasmus Intensive Language Courses The initiative supports specialised courses in the less widely used and less taught languages. They are organised in the countries where these languages are used as teaching languages at higher education institutions. English, German, French and Spanish (Castilian) are not eligible as Erasmus Intensive Language Courses. The objective of the courses is to linguistically and culturally prepare future Erasmus students in the host country for the mobility period. 5 386 students participated in 361 Erasmus intensive language courses in 2009/10.
Other actions
"Centralised actions" such as networks, multilateral projects and accompanying measures are managed by the EU's Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency. They serve to develop specific activities among higher education institutions and other stakeholders (such as businesses) to modernise different aspects of higher education and implement as well as feed policy in this sector.

6.What is the role of the Member States in Erasmus?
EU Member States are involved at various levels. First of all, each Member State sends its national Ministerial representatives to the Council of the European Union to adopt laws and coordinate policies including the Lifelong Learning Programme, of which Erasmus is a part. The budget for Erasmus is decided jointly by the Council and the European Parliament for a seven-year period. Current funding for Erasmus is around €450 million a year. Secondly, national authorities co-fund the running costs of their national agency as well as supervising the implementation of Erasmus in their country. The European Commission is assisted in the implementation of the Lifelong Learning Programme by the Lifelong Learning Committee, which is composed of representatives from the Member States. Finally, higher education institutions have to be recognised by national authorities to be able to qualify for the Erasmus University Charter in order to take part in the Erasmus programme.
7.What is Erasmus for All?
Erasmus for All is the new financial support programme proposed by the European Commission for education, training, youth and sport. It would start in 2014 and would significantly increase the funds allocated for the development of knowledge and skills. Erasmus for All is based on the premise that investing in education and training is the key to unlocking people's potential to increase their personal development, gain new skills and boost their job prospects.
Erasmus for All will have a streamlined structure which will improve effectiveness, which means more grants for students, trainees, teachers and others. Opportunities for mobility and cooperation will be significantly strengthened under the new programme: in particular, there will be more funding available for study, training, teaching and volunteering opportunities abroad for higher education and vocational students, trainees, teachers, trainers and youth workers. There will also be more opportunities for education and training institutions or youth organisations to engage in partnerships to exchange good practice and with businesses to promote innovation and employability, as well as greater support for IT platforms, such as e-twinning, to connect schools and other learning providers via the internet.
8.How is Erasmus for All different from the current programmes?
The main aim remains the same - to improve people's development and skills - and ultimately their employability, as well as to support the modernisation of education and training systems. Erasmus for All would replace seven existing programmes with one: it brings together the existing Lifelong Learning Programme (Erasmus, Leonardo da Vinci, Comenius and Grundtvig), Youth in Action, and five international cooperation programmes (Erasmus Mundus, Tempus, Alfa, Edulink and the programme for cooperation with industrialised countries).
The main aims of the existing programmes will continue (i.e. learning mobility, cooperation projects and support for policy reform), but actions will be strengthened where the systemic impact is strongest and where there is a clear EU added value. There are also a number of new innovative proposals, such as the Erasmus Master's student loan guarantee scheme, the knowledge alliances and the sector skills alliances. A single programme will result in simpler application rules and procedures, as well as avoiding fragmentation and duplication. (See IP/11/1308).
Since 2007, an average of 400 000 people per year have received EU grants for study, training and volunteering abroad. Under the Commission's proposal, this figure would nearly double.
This Erasmus for All proposal is now under discussion by the Council (27 Member States) and the European Parliament who will take the final decision on the budgetary framework for 2014-2020.

Do you want to Live Forever, Booth readers? Despite all the films and science fiction novels arguing that eternal life would be a drag, I have to say that chilling on Earth till the sun burns out doesn't sound half bad. While listening to the first Booth feature from Drew32 will not, in fact, endow you with the gift of immortality, those who set their standards slightly lower will find a lot to like about the promo single, which finds the Michigan rapper/producer extolling his mic skills, work ethic and overall flyness over his own bluesy, chopped-piano production. Neenaa guests, doing her best Rihanna impression (Hey, we were all thinking it.) on the chorus. Though this joint' isn't attached to the project, you can hear more from Drew32 on his Label Me: Reloaded mixtape, released to the 'net this past spring.

The picture above is one of several caravan accommodations that are dispersed within two large halls of a former factory. Not unlike a camp ground if you think about it. You are sharing a large space with other guests. A small hang out area adjoins each caravan, which serves as the bedroom (the hotel notes the caravans are not soundproof.) There are other styles available including cabins--both traditional and contemporary--and each hall has a common lounge. The bath and shower facilities are shared, but of course guys and gals are separated.
Sorry, there is no room service and no mini-bar. Coffee and croissants are offered in the mornings, and there is a caf� on site serving three meals a day. The caf� is open to both guests and visitors, and specializes in organic, locally sourced menus. Yes, of course there is German beer, identified on the web site as �Smudge� beer from Stuttgart. Free samples?
Should the caravan concept not be your thing, Hutten Palast offers �regular� hotel rooms with private bathrooms. These are located in the main building. Everyone gets free WiFi.
While this accommodation may not be for everyone, we like the creative spirit and originality that went into it. It�s a great fit for artistic Berlin, and imagine how much fun it could be to fully book one of the halls (or a six car lot) for a family re-union or best friend getaway.
Caravan room rates from €65, double; hotel room rates from €85, double

China Star Bistro (Closed)
9225 Dyer St.El Paso, TX
Note:  As of 2009 Chef Mike has moved to Sam's Restaurant's newest branch, Red Lantern at 1841 N. Zaragoza Road. Because of this, I am not sure the food at China Star is the same as before. When I visited I was not able to order the special dishes or get the traditional Chinese food described in this review. Everything I have described should be available at Red Lantern, since that is where the former personnel of China Star have moved. In the meantime I am changing the rating of China Star from 24 to 20, but it will take more visits to both restaurants to establish what I think should be the true ratings at each. Currently I have not visited Red Lantern and I do not have a review of it on this site.
Asian bistros traditionally offer higher quality food than is found in the typical buffet restaurant, but they
have been slower to catch on in El Paso than in other cities. I used to enjoy Yung's Asian Bistro in
east El Paso, but I think the fact that it was a little more expensive than most Asian restaurants
reduced the number of customers to the point that the owners decided to change to a different concept.
China Star Bistro has overcome some of the problems Yung's experienced, but the issue now is getting the
word out to the public. China Star costs more than some of the cheaper Chinese restaurants, but prices
are reasonable for high quality Chinese food. China Star has an upscale decor that makes it look as if it
will be expensive, but it offers lunch specials and other dishes that will not put a bigger dent in the pocketbook
than most other Asian restaurants in town.
China Star Bistro is an outgrowth of Sam's Restaurant, one of the most successful non-buffet
Chinese restaurants in El Paso. One of the families who started Sam's, along with the former chef at
Moon Star, formed a partnership to open China Star using the same formula of success that has
made Sam's popular. The menu is similar to Sam's, with an emphasis on spicy Szechuan and
Hunan style dishes. Lunch specials are available, but no buffet is served. I know buffets are popular
in El Paso, but most people I know who have tried Sam's lunch specials did not regret the fact that no
buffet was available.
From talking to the owners of China Star, I know they have tried to keep prices at the lowest level
possible. The menu seems to be a little more extensive and upscale than at Sam's, and of course
the more exotic dishes are more expensive. Patrons have a choice, though, that fits all budgets and
hunger levels.
Michael, one of the owners and head chef at China Star, cooks the type of food that in my opinion
could command higher prices than are charged. I became acquainted with him when he was the chef
at Moon Star, Sam's first venture at branching out from the original restaurant. Mike has worked for a
number of years in New York, and prepares the style of inventive and flavorful food that frankly is not
found very much in El Paso. This combined with good quality meat, fresh ingredients, and lack of MSG,
make China Star one of the few places in the city where I think "real" Chinese food can be found.
Moreover, China Star is one of the few places in El Paso with a full time Chinese chef, ensuring
that the food is the same every time people go.
The Egg Drop Soup here is light, without too much salt and the yellow food coloring that seems
to be used by some restaurants. The soup here is very similar to the one served at Sam's Restaurant.
Eggplant with Basil is one of the more upscale dishes at China Star that is typical of its
"bistro style" food. It comes with a choice of meats, and does a very good job of showcasing the
chef's ability to blend complex spices and flavors into an enjoyable and unusual Chinese dish.
It worked well in disguising the fact that eggplant was used as the main vegetable, something
I always hope will happen when I order an eggplant dish. I will have to say that this was a truly
enjoyable dish, and something that I would expect to be served in a large city Chinese restaurant.
Pan Fried Noodles are served representing one of the more popular dishes around Hong Kong and
the southern area of China, providing a filling meal with meat, vegetables, and noodles. The trick to serving
pan fried noodles is for them to be crispy at the ends but soft in the middle as sauce is poured over the
top. The noodles at China Star were crispy at the ends without being burned (a common practice I have
seen in restaurants), making them one of the better versions I have seen. The chef includes whole red
chiles that make the dish spicy, a modification to the traditional Hong Kong style dish. The shrimp I tried
was quite good, but other types of meat can be ordered. The dish is usually made with a combination of
beef, chicken, and shrimp.
Many of the dishes on the menu are spicy Hunan and Szechuan style, although I found that some of
the traditional Cantonese dishes are made spicy unless customers specify otherwise. Everything has
been very good, it is just a matter of letting them know if you do not want anything spicy.
When I used to eat Mike's cooking at Moon Star, I found that most of the best food was not on the menu.
This was either because they thought customers would not order the more traditional Chinese food, or
because the ingredients were not available on a consistent enough basis to put the dishes on the menu.
The same is true at China Star, with the exception that a few more items seem to be on the menu than
were previously available at Moon Star.
By ordering some of the more traditional Chinese food that Mike is able to prepare, though, customers
will be treating themselves to meals that I think are comparable to the ones served in many of the better
restaurants in the United States. I know El Paso has a severe limitation in importing fresh ingredients that
may not be the case in New York or San Francisco, but Mike can do quite a bit with what is available.
Customers can either call ahead of time to place a special order or take their chances with whatever can
be prepared when they come into the restaurant. In any case, I think the best food at China Star (and at
most Chinese restaurants that serve authentic food) comes by letting the chef or the host recommend
something. I particularly recommend trying some of the more unusual dishes Mike can prepare.
Even though the menu consists largely of Hunan style dishes, the traditional style "special" food
will be mainly Cantonese or Hong Kong style, with most of it being non-spicy. Cantonese style soups
are particularly good, with one example being Ginseng Soup that is a special medicinal soup
that is only prepared when the staff eats it for their own meals (or when a customer places a special order).
There is usually something unusual available, if customers are willing to let the staff make a

While welcoming the release of democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi, the radical Sikh organisation, Dal Khalsa, has insisted that Myanmar release all the remaining political prisoners.
The party secretary for political affairs, Kanwar Pal Singh, said here on Sunday that Ms Suu Kyi was "an inspiration for all who believe in freedom of speech, democracy, liberty and human rights."
Even when she was free from detention, she had a long way to go to "free" her country from military dictatorship, which had continued with its brutal incarceration of 2,100 political prisoners.
Dal Khalsa was of the opinion that while US President Barack Obama took India to task for not speaking against suppression of human rights in Myanmar, he failed to take note of India's serious human rights problems.

IT & Network Infrastructure : Macs Don`t Matter So Much to Apple Anymore: 10 Reasons Why
When Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak first started their company, they called it Apple Computer. It was a name that lived on through decades. But a few years ago, Apple officially dropped "Computer from its name. And now, the company is known as, simply, Apple. Although some called the name change symbolic, today, it seems to be quite fitting. Apple is no longer a computer company that focuses its efforts on delivering the best machines users can buy. The company is now an electronics maker. And it wants to be the world's top hardware maker going forward. But in order to achieve that goal, Apple has forgotten about Macs. And although those computers are still somewhat important to the company, they aren't nearly as important to Steve Jobs and Company as they were years ago. Read on to find out why Macs don't matter to Apple as much as they once did.

Tampa Bay begins epic 12-game homestand by crushing Atlanta 7-1; Steven Stamkos takes NHL scoring lead
Jan 23, 2011, 8:16 PM EDT
It would be hasty to say that the Southeast Division might be decided by a 12-game stretch in February, but that might not be that far from the truth. The Tampa Bay Lightning hold a slim three-point lead over the Washington Capitals but could build a serious nest egg if they take advantage of a month-plus stay at home.
(Hopefully everyone on Tampa Bay's roster is getting along well with their wives/girlfriends/roommates right now.)
Who knows if they'll get much out of it – after all, they'll face some tough competition with one game against Washington, two contests against the Philadelphia Flyers and one match versus the Detroit Red Wings – but they certainly started things off with a bang. The Lightning absolutely dominated the Atlanta Thrashers 7-1 tonight.
Steven Stamkos scored a goal to assume the NHL's points-scoring lead over injured Sidney Crosby as the Lightning earned their fourth win in a row. This marks the 11th consecutive time Tampa Bay beat Atlanta.
A five-goal second period fueled the Lightning's win. Simon Gagne scored twice, Teddy Purcell provided three assists, Vincent Lecavalier had two helpers and six different Lightning players scored during the game.
A late third period Rich Peverley spoiled a Dwayne Roloson shutout, as the veteran goalie made 21 saves. Ondrej Pavelec allowed three goals on 19 shots and was then replaced by Peter Mannino, who produced similar results (four goals on 20 shots).
Atlanta only has one win in their last eight games, going 1-4-3 in that span.
Tampa Bay's remaining 11 games are spread out nicely, with a week separating their Tuesday squabble with the Toronto Maple Leafs and their first of two against Philadelphia in this run. The Lightning won't have many excuses if they don't win most of these games.
- falstaffsmind - Jan 24, 2011 at 11:51 AM
I am not so sure Stammer scored so much as Marty caromed one off him and into the net, but the box score will list it as Stammer's goal.

Tampa and Atlanta. Two areas that shouldn't have an NHL team

Hang tight!
Recipe by B M Schumaker
"A real old fashioned molasses cookie for you to sink your teeth into. These cookies are cut out into circles and each one has a decorative raisin in the middle. To make sour milk, just add 1 teaspoon of vinegar to a cup of milk and let it stand for 5 minutes."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 cup white sugar
1 cup shortening
1 cup molasses
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour milk
1/2 cup raisins for decorating
Delicious, soft,not-too-sweet cookies. I have been searching for a recipe that replicates my grandmother's molasses cookies, and this is almost it. (Unfortunately Grandma never wrote anything down, and now she's gone!) I rolled the dough (which was a little too sticky, I had to add lots of flour when I rolled it out) thicker, to a 1/2 inch or so, so the cookies are more cake-like. Obviously had to cook longer. I may try the others on this website to see if their recipes are an even closer match to Grandma's, but these were very good.
I followed the recipe exactly and the biscuits were VERY dissapointing. THey were insipid and din't taste of anything. I tried them golden brown [and they were slightly raw] and thoroughly cooked [& they were very crispy, brown and a bit more tasty] but neither had a molasses taste. I don't recommend these!
5 Ratings
These were excellent! My husband has already asked me to make them again, except this time he wants a double batch! I highly recommend this recipe.
These weren't my favorite but they were still pretty good.
I did not care for this.

Branson, Thomas and Lano, RP and Rodgers, VGJ (1997) Yang-Mills, Gravity, and String Symmetries. [Preprint]
9610023.pdf Download (115Kb) |
In this work we use constructs from the dual space of the semi-direct product of the Virasoro algebra and the affine Lie algebra of a circle to write a theory of gravitation which is a natural analogue of Yang-Mills theory. The theory provides a relation between quadratic differentials in 1+1 dimensions and rank two symmetric tensors in higher dimensions as well as a covariant local Lagrangian for two dimensional gravity. The isotropy equations of coadjoint orbits are interpreted as Gauss law constraints for a field theory in two dimensions, which enables us to extend to higher dimensions. The theory has a Newtonian limit in any space-time dimension. Our approach introduces a novel relationship between string theories and 2D field theories that might be useful in defining dual theories. We briefly discuss how this gravitational field couples to fermions.

Differential pain assessment in cancer is important also, to help the treatment team to discern if new pain is from cancer that has moved to a new area, or if there is an acute condition that must be addressed (such as appendicitis or gall bladder stones). It may seem unlikely that cancer patients may experience an acute episode of pain unrelated to their cancerous process, but it is possible. It may help to keep a written record of pain to offer feedback to the physician during visits, or if a call must be placed after hours.
Swelling, itching and rashes cause pain, and while minor when compared to pain from cancer, they can actually make it harder to tolerate pain levels if the minor pain is left unaddressed.
Biofeedback has been around for some time, and there are competent technicians able to instruct patients in controlling their breathing and heart rate. The technique has worked well for persons who have an ability to focus on these measurable parameters, which can help reduce pain and the anxiety that comes from being in pain.
Massage therapy can work in almost any case to reduce pain and improve the relaxation effect. It is not necessary to "work" the area where pain is felt to provide comfort and a sense of healing.
Patients with swelling from radiation or surgery (such as removal of lymph nodes) can look for a lymphedema therapist, who is trained in proper technique for massaging swollen areas as well as the rest of the body.
Reflexology can be performed on the hands or feet to help release tense areas which may be related to painful spots. The body in pain will tense itself in a variety of ways in response to pain, and by relaxing one part of the body by massage, the rest of it can follow.
Massage can be combined with biofeedback, imagery or other alternative therapies (such as aromatherapy) to diminish stress response.
Constipation arising from opiate medications is a frustrating consequence for caregiver and loved one. A common misconception is that fiber and exercise will address all types of constipation. When opiates are given, the bowels are slowed down; the result is constipation, which occurs in many people who take opioid/opiates.
The buildup of waste in the intestines creates discomfort in all people. In general, suggestions to alleviate and control constipation include increasing water intake to soften food passing through the digestive tract, and exercise, which helps muscles "massage" the internal organs. The intestines made "sleepy" by opiods can be helped by these two suggestions, but more help may be needed; especially when pain hinders the ability to move.
Fiber is an excellent "homespun" cure to deal with constipation, and as long as the individual has a somewhat hearty appetite, salads and vegetables can be given as snacks and meals. When appetites are poor or finicky, fiber bought at the health food store can be sprinkled on easy-to-consume foods (like pudding or baby food). Fiber is helped by fluid intake, and those who are having trouble keeping up with their liquids may prefer "fun fluids," such as snow cones and popsicles.

My new favorite treat! Cake and frosting in one bite! You can make these with any cake and icing combination. Dip in either white or regular chocolate bark.
Red Velvet Cake Balls
1 box red velvet cake mix (cook as directed on box for 13 X 9 cake)
1 can cream cheese frosting (16 oz.)
1 package chocolate bark (regular or white chocolate)
wax paper
1. After cake is cooked and cooled completely, crumble into large bowl.
2. Mix thoroughly with 1 can cream cheese frosting. (It may be easier to use fingers to mix together, but be warned it will get messy.)
3. Roll mixture into quarter size balls and lay on cookie sheet. (Should make 45-50. You can get even more if you use a mini ice cream scooper, but I like to hand roll them.)
4. Chill for several hours. (You can speed this up by putting in the freezer.)
5. Melt chocolate in microwave per directions on package.
6. Roll balls in chocolate and lay on wax paper until firm. (Use a spoon to dip and roll in chocolate and then tap off extra.)
I also only melt a few pieces of chocolate bark at a time because it starts to cool and thicken. It's easier to work with when it's hot.

Mandi Leonard10/03/2011, Florida While planning our three year, sailing adventure on a fifty foot catamaran, my husband Scott and I felt we had all our bases covered: boat-check, home schooling-check, route-check, provisioning-check, electronics-check, but, unfortunately, when it came to our medical care solution there was a big, fat hole. This made me, a mother of three very active boys ages 5, 9, and 11, not to mention being married to an extremely injury prone husband, incredibly nervous; nervous to the point of rethinking our entire plan. Was fulfilling our dream of sailing the world for three years worth putting our family's wellbeing in jeopardy?

Pronunciación: /ˌint(y)o͞oˈiSHəˌnizəm/
(also intuitionalism-ˈiSHənlˌizəm)
Definición de intuitionism en inglés:
Philosophy 1The theory that primary truths and principles (especially those of ethics and metaphysics) are known directly by intuition.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- This theory of intuitionism influenced later philosophers, in particular Rousseau and Bergson, but also the existentialists.
- Although Dummett's work on deduction has its roots in the debate over intuitionism, it does not necessarily follow that, in every case, the alternative logic advocated by a Dummett-style anti-realist would be intuitionistic logic.
- They both fail for open set logic, which is to say intuitionism, just as they both fail for its topological dual, closed set logic.
1.1The theory that mathematical knowledge is based on intuition and mental construction, rejecting certain modes of reasoning and the notion of independent mathematical objects.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- A corresponding slogan for intuitionism would be that in mathematics, to exist is to be constructed.
- Freudenthal studied the relation between axiomatic mathematics and reality, and this study led him to contribute to intuitionism, as well as to the application of mathematics to linguistics.
- The authors, breaking with the intuitionism that had dominated eighteenth-century French treatises, updated the logic of geometry manuals.
- 1
sustantivo& adjetivo - Oraciones de ejemplo
- But in none of his essays that deal with this issue does Gardner address any of the arguments that are put forth by other kinds of mathematicians like intuitionists or formalists.
- He is an epistemological realist, an ethical intuitionist, and a political libertarian, too extreme for my tastes but always provocative.
- The intuitionists seldom differ from the rest of us in the number of facts referred to in describing how we come to understand logical statements and their relations.

Of course, there was certainly a long history of machines and technology inspiring 20th century artists. The path of geometry, technology, and art was in part formed by the late paintings of Kandinsky, Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie, and the machine aesthetic of artists like Charles Sheeler and Gerald Murphy. I was also influenced by the work of artists who were currently involved with imagery of machines and technology. For example, I loved the graphics of the London-based avant-garde architectural group, Archigram, and the Pop Art prints and paintings of the Scottish artist, Eduardo Paolozzi. There were also contemporary collaborative experiments like E.A.T—Experiments in Art and Technology—at MOMA, and Art and Technology, an exhibition of collaborations between artists and engineers, at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
Seth Price, Correspondence
The following is an excerpt of an ongoing correspondence between Seth Price and Boško Blagojević.
Normalized Silence (2009) - Nicholas O'Brien
With the help of Amazon's Mechanical Turk, I asked workers to record 30+ seconds of "silence" from an on-board, or on-hand microphone. After collecting results, I normalized the submitted silence to a zero decibel level which high-lights the minor - normally inaudible - discrepancies between each recording/location/worker.
In doing so, Normalized Silence approaches the discourse of anonymity that surrounds network and out-source cultures. Accentuating the normally "silent" voices of anonymous workers within this framework provides a aural gesture of individuality within a realm of digital shadows.
Bits & Pieces (1999) - Peter M. Traub
bits & pieces is a continuous composition that gets its source sounds from the web. Every morning a special search process looks for web pages with links to sound files. If links are found, the sound files are downloaded. The day's 'catch' is then used to create the pieces in bits & pieces for the next 24 hours.
Every 15 minutes a sound generating process randomly picks a few sound files to work with. There are several sound generating processes that each generate different sound pieces. bits & pieces randomly picks which process will be used each time a new piece is made. The number of processes that bits & pieces chooses will change over time as new ones are added or old ones removed. Once a sound generating process is complete, its output is converted into two mp3 files (one for high bandwidth and one for low).
The Fragmented Orchestra (2008-2009) - Jane Grant, John Matthias and Nick Ryan
The Fragmented Orchestra is a huge distributed musical structure modelled on the firing of the human brain's neurons. The Fragmented Orchestra connects 24 public sites across the UK to form a tiny networked cortex, which will adapt, evolve and trigger site-specific sounds via FACT in Liverpool.
Each of the sites has a soundbox installed, which will stream human-made and elemental sounds from the site via an artificial neuron to one of 24 speakers in FACT. The sound will only be transmitted when the neuron fires. A firing event will cause fragments of sound to be relayed to the gallery and will also be communicated to the cortex as a whole. The combined sound of the 24 speakers at the gallery will be continuously transmitted back to the sites and to each of the 24 sites.
Camera Ready
"You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you nothing back, no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to hang in museums, no poems to be printed and sold, nothing but that fleeting moment when you feel alive." Those are the words of Merce Cunningham, whose death this summer—a month after the passing of Pina Bausch—provoked a wave of public musing on the difficulties of dance's notation and preservation, as critics expressed a bleak resignation about the medium's supposed transience. So it's a fortunate coincidence that the Institute of Contemporary Art in Philadelphia is starting the new season with an exhibition that demonstrates what dance has "given back" to photography, film, and video. "Dance with Camera" encompasses fifty years of art—from classics like Eleanor Antin, Bruce Nauman, and Mike Kelley to emerging artists—and all the works are rooted in choreography and modernist approaches to movement. Several of the artists make work for both theaters and galleries, and their use of the camera builds on live performance rather than serving as a record of it. Choreographer Kelly Nipper considers motion's relation to stillness by bringing dancers to her photography studio to isolate moments, while Flora Wiegmann adapts dance phrases to places outside the theater and the camera's lens. Elad Lassry's 16mm films exploit the metaphoric potential of the dancer's disciplined severity, her unity of mind and body. These artists make their camera an active agent in the work, rather than a documentary device. Their concern isn't extending a dance's duration in memory, but expanding the capabilities of the camera through the associative and compositional possibilities of dance. The exhibition opens Friday and runs through ...

Two weeks after Hurricane Sandy caused chaos and destruction in the East Coast corner of the United States, hundreds of FedEx team members have been lending a hand to badly affected communities.
This week, FedExOffice announced the launch of its "Pack, Ship & Give programme". The carrier is planning on donating $1 to the Food Bank for New York City and the Community Food Bank of New Jersey for each Pack & Ship transaction.
Brian Philips, president and CEO of FedEx Office, said that "FedEx has been working since immediately following the storm to transport desperately needed relief supplies through the disaster response and community nonprofits where we have existing relationships."
"We have been supporting the Food Bank For New York and Community Food Bank of New Jersey for years, and, with the help of our customers, FedEx is eager to provide these organisations with additional aid when the demand for their services remains so high."
During the two weeks following Sandy, the courier company transported a staggering three million pounds of disaster relief supplies to citizens in destructed areas such as New Jersey and New York.

STILL ALICE (PG13) Best Actress nominee Julianne Moore (Far From Heaven, The Hours, The End of the Affair, Boogie Nights) gives a terrific, heartbreaking and unforgettable performance as Alice Howland, a renowned linguistics professor, happily married with three adult children. In the words of her husband John (Alec Baldwin), she's the most beautiful and most intelligent woman he's ever known. But Alice finds herself forgetting words—her stock in trade. Frightened, she consults her doctor, and receives a devastating diagnosis: early onset Alzheimer's disease. Her loving family tries to support her, but finds their bonds thoroughly tested. Her children, Anna (Kate Bosworth), Tom (Hunter Parrish) and Lydia (Kristen Stewart) each meet the crisis in their own way. Lydia, an aspiring actress, has been at odds with her mother over her own future, and tries to mend the breach before it is too late. Alice's struggle to stay connected to who she once was is frightening, poignant, and inspiring. Told with a quiet restraint that is more powerful than sentimental melodrama, Still Alice will touch your heart.

Exhibition preview: Laura Ashley - The Romantic Heroine, Fashion Museum, Bath, until August 26 2013
© Laura Ashley Ltd
This most quintessential of British fashion movements is revisited here with a first major retrospective of a designer who inspired a generation of women to dress like Tess of the d'Urbervilles, from Hardy's eponymous novel.
Nearly 100 frocks are on display – many of them borrowed from the Laura Ashley Archive in what Fashion Museum Manager Rosemary Harden describes as a celebration of "the vision of the romantic heroine that Laura Ashley gave to fashion during the late 1960s and 1970s".
© Copyright Laura Ashley Ltd
The demand was almost instant. From there they branched into soft furnishings. By the late 1960s, they had turned their attentions to fashion and the curious style that held sway with women for almost two decades was born.
"A classic example was the chaste cotton print maxi-dress in earth-hewn natural colours – whisking us away with the notion of life in a golden age; a pastoral idyll far from the mad city life," adds Harden.
It perhaps says as much about the lure of the past as it does about the vagaries of the fashion industry, but the Ashley style captured a notion of rural England that encapsulated both the hippy idealism of the early 1970s and eighties Aga Saga affluence.
But if the style was unusual, the fashion shots promoting this curious fashion fad were even more so.
Often staged by the Ashley's daughter Jane to look like pastoral scenes of Georgian or Victorian life, waif-like girls would channel these bygone years accompanied by the younger children of the Ashley family or by corn-chewing male models dressed as old-fashioned farm labourers.
The Laura Ashley brand may have moved on from this rural idyll, but with the fads of fashion being as they are, the company may yet return to the natural fabrics of a bygone era to take us Far from the Madding Crowd once again.
- Open 10.30am-5pm. Admission £5.75-£7.75 (free for under-5s). Follow the museum on Twitter @Fashion_Museum.
