"In 1945, after the collapse of the Third Reich, Leo Alexander worked as an Allied investigator and exposed murderous medical experiments and other atrocities of the Nazi regime. His 'top secret' mission, documented in recently discovered diaries, provided the United States with evidence to prosecute 20 German doctors and three administrators for war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Nuremberg Doctors' Trial held in 1946-47. The legacy of Nuremberg was profound. In the Nuremberg Code - a landmark in the history of modern medical ethics - the judges laid down for the first time international guidelines for permissible experiments on humans. One of those who helped to formulate this code was Alexander. Ulf Schmidt's discoveries reveal how modern medicine became the subject of greater accountability. He provides insight into the origins of human rights in medical science and into the changing role of international law, ethics and politics. Schmidt argues in Justice at Nuremberg that medical suffering continued throughout the Cold War but also concludes that the legacy of Nuremberg is more relevant today than ever - that the protection of the lives, dignity and rights of humans is what really matters."--Jacket.

UPDATE: Best of CES Wins Go to Razer for Third Straight Year
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) LAS VEGAS, NV -- (Marketwired) -- 01/10/14 -- Razer, the world leader in entertainment devices and software, took top honors at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) for the third consecutive year with its modular PC concept Project Christine and the wearable Razer Nabu smartband.
Project Christine earned "Best PC" distinctions from Engadget, the official awards partner at CES. Concurrently, the Razer Nabu was selected as Engadget's "People's Choice" by way of an open public vote. This is the third year in a row that Razer walked away with a "Best of CES" win, including "People's Voice" in 2012, and "Best of Show," "Best Gaming" and "People's Voice" in 2013.
"Razer is not just a gaming company -- we are a company that designs products for gamers," says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder, CEO and creative director. "Our continued success at CES really speaks to the gaming lifestyle as a global phenomenon. We're just a start-up, but our worldwide community of gamers and what we do for them positions us shoulder-to-shoulder -- albeit uniquely -- with the largest tech companies in the world." Selected by Engadget's editorial team, Project Christine is a revolutionary new PC concept design. It will allow a user to build and customize a computer without advanced technical knowledge -- a PC for everyone. As new upgrades come to the market, the PC can be easily and quickly upgraded without assistance or the fear of incompatibility or obsolescence. Project Christine's modular design allows users to select and install modules on-the-fly, whether it's a CPU, GPU, or memory and storage configuration, all in a liquid-cooled environment. The result is an ultimately modular, upgradable and powerfully silent computer that can run on any operating platform.
Engadget's People's Choice of CES was awarded to Razer for its Nabu smartband, a product in an entirely new category for the company, built on an open platform that delivers smartphone notifications, collects physical data and communicates with other users' bands, all from one's wrist. The Nabu tracks fitness data, location, sleep data, and biometric information (such as distance traveled and stairs climbed), all on an opt-in basis. Additionally, the Razer Nabu incorporates a social component, offering band-to-band active and passive communication, so users can find nearby friends, mutual acquaintances and more.
The Razer Nabu won the Popular Mechanics Editor's Choice Award, the Tom's Guide Readers' Choice Award, and the Digital Trend's Best of CES in the Sports and Fitness category. Project Christine won Tom's Hardware's Best of CES in the Outside the Box category, and PCWorld and TechHive's Best of CES Award in the Best Prototype category.

The invention relates generally to biomedical implant telemetry systems for analog physiological data and more particularly to intracardiac waveform transmission from an implanted cardiac pacer.
For many years fully implanted tissue stimulators have been used to treat cardiac and nervous disorders. Microelectronic circuits inside a hermetically sealed implanted case generate electrical impulses according to a prescribed set of parameters. By far the most common species of this type of implant is the cardiac pacer. A sealed battery powered pulse generator is connected to an insulated electrical conductor which passes into and through the vascular system and terminates in an electrode which is attached inside the heart, for example, to the bottom of the right ventricle. Electrical impulses generated by the sealed circuitry are applied via this lead, ordinarily using a metal case of the pulse generator as a ground electrode. If the stimulation pulse is correctly timed and exceeds a so called capture threshold, the ventricle will contract in response to the electrical stimulation. The same lead is employed as an electrical sensor to detect naturally generated electrical impulses which characterize spontaneous cardiac activity to inhibit artificial stimulation to avoid competition with the natural heart rhythm.
It is now commonplace to prescribe changes to the stimulation pulse parameters and other criteria by externally transmitting coded signals to the implanted circuitry. The first commercially successful type of inbound data transmission used electromagnetic impulse programming to rapidly actuate a tiny reed switch connected to a counter chain. Pulse width modulation systems have evolved based on improved electromagnetic impulse programming as well as RF signalling.
Outbound telemetry systems have recently been introduced to allow two-way communication between the external programmer and the implant. One of the most severe restrictions on outbound telemetry systems is power consumption. Battery operated pacers are designed to remain implanted for five to ten years. A conventional transmitter inserted in the pacer would consume too much power if used for any significant length of time. To overcome this limitation, resonant reflected signal transponder-like systems have been proposed in which the carrier frequency is supplied externally and modulated internally by the implant. Impedance modulated resonant transponder circuit systems are shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,361,153 assigned to the assignee of the present invention and incorporated herein by reference. U.S. Pat. No. 4,361,153 discloses an outbound telemetry system which allows transmission of information from the implanted device while consuming a minimum amount of power. This telemetry system includes a resonant impedance modulated transponder in the implant which modulates the phase of the carrier in accordance with a pulse width modulated binary signal representative of the condition of the parameter registers in the implant. In this way, when interrogated, the pacer can inform the physician of the current programmed values of the various programmable parameters. U.S. Pat. No. 4,223,679 to Schulman purports to disclose an impedance reflecting resonant circuit apparently relying on frequency modulation of the carrier.
In addition to digitally stored parameter data, stored programs (software) and the like, it would be desirable to have a means for transmitting out of the pacer certain measured or sensed variables which are analog in nature. Two of the most interesting variable quantities are battery voltage and electrical amplitude of natural activity on the cardiac lead. Absent stimulation, the lead acts as an electrical pickup and electrical signals of varying amplitude appear on the lead. If the lead is attached to the inside of the heart, the resulting signal is known as an intracardiac electrogram or ICEG signal. It is desirable to obtain an ICEG since it is a different, and in some cases, a better means of studying the electrophysiology of the heart. Electrophysiological studies of the heart are extremely important in diagnosing and treating certain arrhythmias. The ICEG cannot be duplicated externally by a conventional EKG. It is, however, extremely difficult to reliably transmit the ICEG signal given the battery power constraints of the pacer. Analog to digital conversion of the ICEG signal would be ideal given the proper sampling rate because of the inherent fidelity of the signal. However, A/D converters consume excessive power. Analog transmission on the other hand presents the problem of base line calibration and possible distortion which would not necessarily be present in the A/D conversion option.
One of the items of interest for an ICEG transmitter would be the ability to inspect the ICEG signal immediately following the application of an artificial stimulation pulse to see whether capture had occurred. This aim is frustrated by the retention on the lead of a decaying charge after the stimulation pulse which can mask natural electrocardiac activity.
Accordingly, the general object of the invention is to transmit a reliable high fidelity analog signal from the implant without excessive power consumption. A correlary object is to provide a means for calibrating external recording equipment and minimizing the effect of drift and changes in the orientation of the external receiver relative to the implant. Another goal of the invention is to enable real-time external reception of the ICEG signal immediately following a stimulation pulse to evaluate capture threshold.
These and other objects of the invention are achieved by the novel outbound telemetry system of the present invention. The analog telemetry system builds upon the foundation of the digital transmission system described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,361,153. The tuned coil and pair of MOSFET's remains dedicated to transmission of purely digital information. Another pair of MOSFET's of the opposite type (n or p-channel) biased to a linear region is connected in circuit with the tuned coil. The two pairs of MOSFET's form complementary analog and digital switches which are used at mutually exclusive times for transmitting either analog or digital information. The analog switches are modulated by the output of a linear amplifier which is connected to the cardiac lead via an analog transmission gate controlled by the programmable digital command circuitry of the implant. The tuned coil is also connected in parallel to a power-up circuit. Following an initial delay, the power-up circuit connects power to the normally dormant linear amplifier and initiates a timed calibration cycle which superimposes on the amplifier output a binary signal of known dimensions to allow external calibration. Following the calibration mode, the ICEG signal is applied to the input of the amplifier and the amplifier output linearly modulates the impedance of the tuned coil which causes a corresponding linear variation in the phase relationship of the reradiated signal. A charge dump circuit automatically depolarizes the lead immediately following the stimulation pulse so that the ICEG signal can be transmitted accurately. This system has the notable advantage of utilizing the same external and internal circuitry for analog as well as digital transmission.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an implanted cardiac pacer which includes the outbound telemetry system of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the outbound telemetry system for the implanted cardiac pacer shown in FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of the circuitry of the outbound telemetry system for the implanted cardiac pacer of FIG. 1.
Corresponding reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views of the drawings.
The outbound telemetry system of the present invention is best understood in conjunction with an implanted cardiac pacer, a part of which is shown in the block diagram of FIG. 1. This pacer includes a programmed microcomputer 10 and a number of parameter registers 12 which store values used by the pacer, such as the pulse rate, the pulse width, the pulse amplitude, the refractory period and other relevant parameters. The information stored in the parameter registers 12 is used by the microcomputer 10 in conjunction with the sensed signals to determine when the heart needs to be stimulated. When such stimulation is required, the microcomputer sends a signal to an output circuit 14 which in turn applies a stimulation pulse through the lead 16 connected to an electrode attached inside the heart.
The microcomputer also provides digital data to a telemetry circuit 18. See, for example, U.S. application Ser. No. 195,665, filed Oct. 9, 1980 by Lesnick entitled "Implantable Externally Programmable Microprocessor-Controlled Tissue Stimulator", which is assigned to the assignee of the present application and is incorporated herein by reference. The same telemetry circuit 18 also receives a dynamically varying analog intracardiac electrogram (ICEG) signal from the lead 16 which is attached to the electrode. An ICEG select signal from the microcomputer gates the ICEG signal via analog switch (transmission gate) 20 to the telemetry circuit. Also attached to the lead 16 is a charge-dump or depolarization circuit 22 which will remove any residual decaying charge which might remain on the lead 16 after a stimulation pulse has been applied to the heart.
The outbound telemetry system of the present invention is more specifically shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. This telemetry system is activated by a programming head 23 (FIG. 2) located outside the body corresponding to head 10 in U.S. Pat. No. 4,361,155. Activation of the telemetry system occurs when the programming head is moved close to the body near the location of the implant containing the outbound telemetry circuitry. The programming head includes a carrier transmitter which transmits a continuous wave electrical output at a constant frequency low enough to achieve magnetic coupling with the coil 24 whose resonant or bandpass frequency is centered at the carrier frequency. The oscillating magnetic field which is generated by the programming head thus radiates into the implant and induces a corresponding voltage in the tuned coil 24 which in turn reradiates a secondary magnetic field at the same carrier frequency. The reradiated or reflected signal is received by the head 23. As described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,361,153, the modulation signal is recovered by a phase shift detector. The recovered analog voltage level is the output denoted "delta phi" (Δφ) in FIGS. 12 and 14 of U.S. Pat. No. 4,361,153.
As shown in FIG. 2, the tuned coil 24 is connected to a rectifier and integrator circuit 26 which triggers a delay circuit 28 when sufficient power is coupled into the tuned coil from the external programming head. After a brief delay, the linear amplifier 30 is activated and a one-shot circuit 32 is triggered to apply a square wave output from generator 34 to a calibration shunt 36 for a predetermined calibration mode period. Calibration shunt circuit 36 is connected to the reference input of linear amplifier 30. The other input to the amplifier is connected via analog switch 20 (FIG. 1) to the lead 16 to obtain the ICEG signal. The output of the linear amplifier 30 is applied to linear modulation switch 38 to modulate the impedance of the tuned coil 24. Alternatlvely, digital data from the microcomputer 10 can be supplied to modulate a digital switch 40 connected in parallel to the tuned coil 24. The pairs of MOSFET's which make up the complementary switches 38 and 40 have parasitic diodes correctly oriented to form a phantom bridge 42 which acts a full wave rectifier to supplement a bias network 44 which compensates the linear swltch 38 for variations in the level of energy coupled into the tuned coil from the programming head 23.
As shown in FIG. 3, the tuned coil 24 includes coil L1 connected in parallel with capacitor C1. The voltage induced by the carrier signal in the tuned coil 24 is applied to a rectifier and integrator circuit 26 to detect a minimum coupling level. Inititally, the signal in the rectifier circuit passes through limiting diodes D3 and D4 which cut off excess highs and lows thereby feeding an amplitude-limited or chopped AC signal to a high-gain, stable operational amplifier 46. The output of the amplifier 46 is fed to half-wave recitifying diode D2 which removes negative excursions from the signal. The resulting DC pulses are accumulated by integrating capacitor C4. If adequate coupling persists, this accumulated signal eventually attains a threshold necessary to trigger delay circuit 28 which powers up the remainder of the circuit. The power-up is not immediate, however, since a turn-on delay is built into the circuit 28. One reason for the delay is to avoid the effects of any electro-magnetic interference which might provide a surge of power. Capacitor C3 charges gradually to a voltage level of VDD, the system ground level. The delay is about 1/10 of a second and following the delay Schmitt trigger 48 causes line 50 which is normally VDD to go to VSS, negative supply voltage nominally -4.2 volts (two lithium cells). The constant VSS output of Schmitt trigger 48 powers the various elements of the circuit as will be described below.
The output of the delay circuit 28 triggers one-shot 32 which times the self-calibration cycle which lasts for about 8 seconds. Schmitt trigger 52 converts the VSS input to VDD thereby causing capacitor C5 to charge up. As the capacitor C5 discharges, a voltage is provided to the square-wave generator 60 through transmission gate 54. This voltage powers the square-wave generator 34 which generates a square-wave signal which is used to calibrate the received signal. This voltage is sufficient to power the square wave generator only while the discharged voltage remains above a predetermined threshold. It has been determined that approximately 8 seconds is a sufficient time interval to adequately calibrate the circuit. Therefore, capacitor C5 and resistor R10 should be chosen so that the discharge time is about 10 seconds (figuring that around the last couple of seconds the discharged voltage is below the driving threshold).
The output of the square-wave generator 34, preferably 40 Hz, is fed to the control input of transmission gate 56 which is normally open. Gate 56 operates as the calibration shunt 36 (FIG. 2). The application of the square-wave signal causes the gate 56 to oscillate between open and closed states. While the gate 56 is closed, resistor R18 is shunted and when gate 56 is open, an open circuit appears across the gate. Resistor R18 is a part of the series voltage divider formed by R15, R18 and R19. The opening and closing of the gate 56 results in a varying voltage being applied to the non-inverting input of linear amplifier 30. Amplifier 30 is preferably a commutating auto zeroing operational amplifier (CAZ op amp) to avoid offset drift.
The inverting input of amplifier 30 is connected to the lead 16 via resistor R19, transmission gate 20 and decoupling capacitor C9.
When gate 20 is closed, the output of amplifier 30 provides an input voltage representing the signal on the lead 16 to the gates of a pair of N-channel field effect transistors (FETs) 60. A pair of P-channel FET's 62, connected in parallel with the N-channel FET's 60, is used for digital transmission. Each of the FET's 60 and 62 also has a parasitic diode connected between the source and drain. The two pairs of parasitic diodes 60a and 62a form a "phantom" full wave bridge rectifier 42.
The N-channel FET's 60 differ from the P-channel FET's 62 in that the N-channel FET's 60 are biased into their linear operating region while the sources of the P-channel FET's 62 are grounded, i.e. the P-channel FET's 62 are either totally on or totally off. A voltage divider supplies the source bias network 44 for the N-channel FET's 60 to operate in their linear modulation region. Preferably network 44 biases the FET's 60 to the center of their linear range. However, the bias voltage is not necessarily constant; it is affected by the power coupled into the tuned coil in the following manner. The voltage divider is connected to the bridge 42 which adds or subtracts its rectified voltage to the constant voltage divider output to provide a variable supplementary bias component. For example, if R1 and R8 are equal, their junction will be at -2.1 volts. If the rectified voltage were 0.1 volts, it would supplement the constant voltage making it less negative. The arrangement as shown in FIG. 3 is such that the more power coupled into the tuned coil by the external carrier, the lower the modulation amplitude from the N-channel FET's. The gain of amplifier 30 is selected so that the peaks in the amplified ICEG signal do not exceed the linear range of the FET's.
The charge-dump circuit 22 of the outbound telemetry system of the present invention removes any residual charge which might remain on the lead 16 after a stimulation pulse has been applied to the heart. In order to remove the charge, the lead is grounded for a short interval of time. As shown in FIG. 3, after the current passing through the FET 90 reaches a predetermined level, a Schmitt trigger 92 forces normally open analog switch 94 to close thereby grounding lead 16 via capacitor C8. The time required for removing the charge from the electrode lead is approximately fifty milliseconds. This capability for removing the charge from the electrode enables the telemetry system of the present invention to determine whether capture has been achieved following a stimulation pulse.
The following table provides representative values and specifications for the components of the circuit of FIG. 3. These specifications merely serve as an example of one embodiment of circuitry for carrying out the invention in a specific application. Other embodiments may, of course, have substantially different specifications, yet still be within the scope of the invention.

In operation, when properly located, the programming head 23 couples voltage into the tuned coil 24 in the implant which eventually actuates the delay circuit 28. Following a momentary delay, the self calibration mode automatically begins. Resistor R18 is varied in relation to the other resistances R15 and R19 in the reference voltage divider such that the difference at the noninverting input of amplifier 30 between the unshunted and shunted conditions caused by square-wave modulation of analog gate 56 amounts to a known value, for example, 4 or 5 millivolts. A strip chart recorder (not shown), for example, connected to the output of the phase shift detector in the programming head 23 (see FIGS. 12 and 14 of U.S. Pat. No. 4,361,155) will record two levels which will be known to vary by 4 or 5 millivolts to allow the transverse axis of the strip chart recorder to be calibrated.
Following the start-up mode including the self calibration period, the microcomputer circuit 10 latches the gate 20 closed via the ICEG select line. The waveform on the lead 16 is amplified by linear amplifier 30 and used to modulate the impedance of the tuned coil circuit via the N channel FET's. Meanwhile, the P channel FET's used only for digital transmission are in the quiescent mode; but for the effect of the parasitic diodes 62a, they represent an open circuit. However, the phantom bridge created by the parasitic diodes 60a and 62a, supplements the bias network which biases the sources of the N channel FET's 60 to perform an automatic gain control. Additional power induced in the tuned circuit from the programming head reduces the modulation effect of the N channel FET's 60 to maintain the amplitude of the waveform superimposed on the carrier at a constant level independent of the proximity of the programming head in relation to the implant.
If desired, the normal pacing mode can continue to operate in the presence of the programming head. When a stimulation pulse is generated by the output circuit 14 (FIG. 1), the ICEG transmission gate 20 is momentarily opened. Following the stimulation pulse, the charge dump circuit 22 depolarizes the lead and the lead is reconnected to the ICEG amplifier 30 via gate 20. In this way, the waveform following stimulation can be analyzed to see whether capture has been obtained.
The advantages of the invention lie in its inherent simplicity and duality of function. Without altering the digital telemetry system, the present invention adds to the tuned circuit transponder an analog capability which exploits an incidental feature of the existing digital telemetry system to enhance the fidelity of the analog transmitted signal. The complementary symmetry of the P channel and N channel FET's allows the parisitic diodes to coact as a phantom full wave rectifier bridge to use the coupled external power as an auxiliary bias voltage supply for automatic gain control of the superimposed waveform signal. The result is a reproducible, linear, highly accurate signal which allows ICEG waveforms recorded at different times to be compared for diagnosis. Moreover, the square wave self-calibration signal allows the strip chart recorder or oscilloscope to be calibrated so that an approximate measurement in the signal level in millivolts on the lead 16 can be obtained in real time. All of this is done with extremely low cost to the power budget constraints imposed by the vital battery capacity of the pacer power supply. The quiescent current drain from the dormant circuitry is on the order of 1 microampere.
Although described in conjunction with cardiac pacers and ICEG transmission, the analog telemetry system herein is adaptable to other types of implants and various analog signals. As various changes can be made in the above constructions without departing from the scope of the invention; it should be understood that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims and all equivalents thereto.

Final Days in Gengenbach
... for the locals - which is evident at this restaurant. Pretty cool tradition for locals to drop by and they always have a table to share. The food here is unbelievable it is so good. What a night! I managed to get quite a few grand photos on my wandering around the Markplatz and many side streets while I was in Gengenbach, especially on Sunday. My favourite lane for picture taking was Angel Lane or Engelgasse. What a wonderful vibe in this ...
Offenburg orthotics, shopping, and Ladies Night

I didn't quite buy out the whole town, but almost - during that afternoon, a little on ladies night, and a little more with a coupon for attending ladies night. Oh my. What fun! And that was only day ...

The idea is that you go through a 17 step process....into all different areas and pools/steam rooms until you finish as the end in a relaxation room.

A Weekend in Alsace
... with Marie-Ange and then I headed out to meet up with my new friends at an Irish pub called Dubliner's. I met some more of Pauline and Kevin's friends and we passed a wonderful evening playing a game called Baccalaureate. This is essentially the same game as Scategories. We played with both English and French words, which was a blast as I taught my new french friends some fun American words/phrases like "funny bone" and "spaghetti squash". :-)

Is there a way to select the Elements of a Composite-Element Nhibernate association withtout using HQL?
Using HQL there is the MaxElements() function that will get the Elements, is there anything like this on Criteria API or QueryOver?
My class is defined like this:
public void Customer {
public string Id {get;set;}
public string Name {get;set;)
public IList<string> Emails {get;set;} //<-- This is the composite-element
On the DB, the tables are Customer and an Emails table that has a Foreign Key pointing to Customer_Id.
I need to retrieve the list of Customers with the first email of each customer. Cant find a way using Criteria or QueryOver.
Let me know Regards

Hey, I'm Carmel!
My husband Shawn and I just spent 10.5 months traveling around the world. We spent 6 months in Asia, a month in Australia, 3 months in Europe and did a little state-side travel before heading back to my hometown of Seattle, WA. You can read all about our adventures and get to know us better at (website hidden)
When we're not traveling, I am an avid home cook and baker. We also love watching football (Broncos, Seahawks), baseball (Mariners), listening to vinyl records, and going to see concerts. Shawn has always been a book nerd, but since we started traveling, I found a new love of reading, too. While we were traveling, we found lots of cool used and trade-in bookstores to feed our addiction, although we are starting to jump on the e-book bandwagon.
During our long-term travels, we tried to stay in one location for longer periods of time so we had a chance to get to know a place. Whenever possible, we'd rent an apartment if we were staying longer. We had such a good experience renting a room while we were in Lisbon that we might try it again in the future - it's a cheaper way to stay and we made some new friends. It was a win-win.
Maybe once we're settled we might even try out hosting ourselves...

BEIRUT Posts
A Thin Line
"Its not about what you see, but how you see it."
In A Thin Line from Beirut, Vol. 22, Serge Najjar, who once suspected he could never creative anything artistic, offers a truly stunning view of Lebanon through his masterful photos, full of delicate humanity against a backdrop of unsuspecting yet dramatic architecture. While alluding to the thin line between past and present, he shares his experience of how the challenge to create a single image can shape one's view the entire the world, adding "when you look at things around you with a new eye, you live again."
Come see the world through Najjar's lens, in this highly compelling presentation, and be inspired to see your surroundings with curiosity, attention, seeking magical revelations in everyday life.
"Creativity abides by no rules, but does not necessarily create chaos."
Lebanese-Canadian pianist & composer Jad Salameh shares with us the story of his life-long affair with creativity. In 'It Comes in Whispers' from PKN Beirut Vol. 21, he goes through his composition process and how he came to understand the relationship between his own mind and the music he writes. Little whispers, great ideas!
"I find that playing with the city and conceiving the city on a different level is seductive, yet possible."
Architect and researcher Monica Basbous invites us to wander through a city she has redefined using illustrations and constructed images. In "Fertile Voids" from PKN Beirut Vol. 20 she discusses the relationship between people and spaces, and shows how the unused sections of her city might be better utilised to encourage interaction between people and their environment.
This week's City Focus goes to Beirut, a city that has just recently celebrated its 20th PechaKucha Night! Those presentations are now online, so time to take in a taste of Lebanon's creative scene.
On top of the great flyer we just shared for this Wednesday's PKN Beirut Vol. 16, here's a fantastic teaser video that was also produced for the event. Concept and animation is by Dima Boulad.
Beirut's Vol. 16 is just arond the corner -- this Wednesday, February 27 -- and here's a look at the lovely illustrated flyer that was produced for the event. You'll find more details on the official event page.
To see more great posters from PechaKucha Nights all over the world, check out our Tumblr blog.
Reexamining an Abandoned Amusement Park, Teaching Kids How to Deal with Disabilities, and Guerilla Projecting in Providence
Presentations A presentation (from PKN Miami Vol. 15) by Anthony Spinello and Augustina Woodgate about a project in Berlin called Kulturpark, taking place in an abandoned amusement park. Here's more on the project from the official website:
In the Treptower Park forest in East Berlin, along the Spreeriver, there is an abandoned amusement park. The park, originally called Kulturpark Planterwald, was built in 1969 by the GDR and was a rare site for Soviet amusement and attraction. After the fall of the wall, the park became the family-owned Spreepark and suffered challenges of access, attendance, and economy. In 2001, the park closed from capital collapse. Ever since, visitors have regularly traversed the fence to explore this jungle of broken thrill machines. In June 2012, Kulturpark will explore the poetics and potential of these recent ruins, building upon the unique energy of Berlin's urban, social, cultural, and political landscapes.
Marina Potanina is the president of a charity foundation called To Kids About Kids. In her presentation (in Russian, from PKN Moscow Vol. 12) she talks about the project, and the creation of an animated series about school life for a group of kids, with one of the main characters being a girl in a wheelchair. In Russia, there are no books, TV, or other examples of adequate communication with people with disabilities. Marina believes that if we start by talking to kids about these issues, that our society will be changed. Posters We end the week with a Tumblr blog update that includes quite a few older posters: PKN Beirut Vol. 11 (pictured above), PKN Sevilla Vol. 9 and 11, PKN Jakarta Vol. 10, PKN New Orleans Vol. 4, PKN Chicago Vol. 18, PKN Louisville Vol. 1, PKN Dublin Vol. 1, PKN Christchurch Vol. 3, PKN The Hague Vol. 5, PKN Victoria Vol. 3-6, PKN Huddersfield Vol. 1, and PKN Los Angeles Vol. 28. Photos We spotted this photo (by Twitter user @parulia, who was attending her first PKN) taken at this past Wednesday's PKN Providence Vol. 41 -- we sure love the guerilla nature of the venue and projection wall. Calendar There's just one event tonight (August 31), with Kumamoto hosting its Vol. 4. Then, you can look to Saturday for the following two events: PKN Hyderabad Vol. 10 and PKN Kathmandu Vol. 6.
Presentations A Bangor native with a passion for weird and creative things, Chris Pierce has been a star "Dungeon Master" -- the person who directs a session of a role-playing game -- at the annual SnowCon Gaming Convention in Orono for the past 4 years. His enthusiasm and love of tabletop gaming is addictive -- and shines through in this presentation from PKN Bangor, ME Vol. 4 -- and he's been known to convince many a "noob" to sit in on a game of Werewolves of Miller's Hollow. In this presentation (in Japanese, from PKN Tokyo Vol. 92), architects Daisuke Sugawara and Masayuki Harada describe a reconstruction project they've been working on, to help rebuild in the Tohoku region. As you'll see, they've been trying to rebuild villages, to keep the community together. Posters We have two new posters on the Tumblr blog today, one for next month's PKN St. Louis Vol. 9 (pictured above) and one for the upcoming PKN Moscow Vol. 19 (it's not listed on the official site yet, but it should be added soon). Photos For the past couple of days we've been sharing coverage of specific events, and so today we catch up on quite a few photosets that we've been adding to our Flickr account.

Presentations Recorded at PKN Gibsons Vol. 2, it's time to pack you bags and accompany Coralie Swaney has she takes you on a tour of New Zealand, the Tauiwi (non-Maori) way. Zissis Roubos is an Athens-based actor and director, and in this presentation (in Greek, from PKN Athens Vol. 3) he makes a case for improving the relationship between people and dogs, illustrating how we can better live with them. Posters New today on our Tumblr blog are the two posters (with art by Gary Venn) that were produced for tomorrow night's PKN Hamilton Vol. 10 -- an outdoor event that got postponed earlier due to rain -- and the poster for the very first PKN in Launceston. Photos Today's collection of photo galleries from PechaKucha Nights the world over. Pictured above, PKN Beirut Vol. 12.

One of the links above is to a gallery of photos for a special PechaKucha event that was held in the town of Mygdalhus, and here's PKN Aalborg organizer Annette Scheibel -- who was behind the event -- with a report on how it all went.
The PechaKucha event in Mygdalhus here in Denmark on May 23 went splendid! Aproximately 40 people attended the small venue -- the very active art-gallery Mygdalhus is driven by the artists themselves, and serves as a community house as well. Summer has hit Denmark, and we gathered the PechaKucha participants outside in the sun for a cosey network dinner organised by the gallery people After an introduction to what PechaKucha is, Claus Gajhede talked about his passion -- he organises adventure role-plays in the woods for children and for adults, and he explained passionately how role-playing can release a lot of potential in people's minds by playing parts, getting into storytelling, and just spending time in nature by the fire or doing all sorts of tasks. Street artist, illustrator, and computer play designer Lars Pank talked about evolving his art and the many layers of connecting different kinds of expression and storytelling through recognizable forms. Architect/artist and art gallery manager of the gallery in the lighthouse of Hirtshals (located beautifully by the ocean on the west coat) Søren Friis talked about his work, sources of inspiration through a long life work with geometric forms and light, and collaborative work on a big sculpture/installation at Aalborg's harbour with a Danish poet called Peter Laugesen. Art gallery owner Jens Guldsmed Thomsen made a very poetic speech about the meeting between art and viewer. After the break, artist Niels Fabæk presented the Nordjylland and Berlin-based art-streamer project CITY-LIFTING, and German jewelry artist Lioba Maria Solga shared her passion for tango with a short introduction speech, and then she danced to music and slides just changing colours -- with a broom!!! As funny, passionate, and unexpected people are, so can PechKucha show the variety of the human mind. Anders Budolf Andersen, a graphic designer, has tried to develop a graphic reward system for doing tedious tasks to make them joyful to do and shared them on a website and blog for free download. Finally, project manager Nikkie Dahm Breinholt told us about her ideas for BUNKERLOVE, an art-festival project in the leftover war bunkers from World War 2, located on the beaches of the west coast.
Calendar Tonight (May 29) sees PKN Saint-Etienne Vol. 9, while tomorrow includes the following four events: PKN Providence Vol. 38, PKN Jersey Vol. 1, PKN Tokyo Vol. 92, and PKN Hamilton Vol. 10.
Presentations Doreen Toutikian thinks that design can change the world for the better, and that's what she hopes to achieve with her "Rethinking Design Through Cross-Cultural Collaboration" project -- see her describe it in this presentation from PKN Beirut Vol. 13. Sebastian Alvarez loves animation, and that could help explain how he ended up becoming an animator. He uses this presentation (from PKN Miami Vol. 14) to describe the main principles behind animation, and shows how all animated forms (2D, CG) can be used to tell stories in original and creative ways. Posters We found this Facebook gallery of posters for Aalen's past PKNs, and so have added a few of them (the ones we'd never seen before) to our Tumblr blog -- and that's the one for PKN Aalen Vol. 2 you see pictured above. We've also added the poster for this week's PKN Portland, Maine Vol. 19 -- next up for the city is the momentous Vol. 20! Photos Today's photo galleries, as well as an event report. The photo above is from PKN Maribor Vol. 7.

PKN Sacramento organizer Claire Obenson reports on the city's recent Vol. 17:
There were presentations from creative professions across the spectrum, such as a playwright, David Blue Garrison, host of the event, who showed posters of his work; there was Andrea Lepore, the creative director for a well known restaurant, Hot Italian, who showed her plans for a well known strip, called Del Paso Blvd; we had Melissa Magliola who showed off her new company, Compliment Rings, whose proceeds "give back" to the community; Veronica Delgado, the great publicist and Artist Agent showed off her endeavours and volunteering efforts; Famed architect, Owen T. Jones presented images about "inside versus outside" spaces; Dennis Dong, another famed architect and PK Night veteran presenter showed off his anonymous spaces and lastly, Marvin Maldonado presented images from his wife's new boutique, Gypsy Mobile Boutique, Sacramento's first mobile boutique. Overall, this was one of the most interesting PK Nights we have ever held and thanks to all who participated!
Calendar Tonight (May 22) you'll find your PKN action in Montreal (Vol. 22), Dnipropetrovsk (Vol.1), and Dundee (Vol. 3), while tomorrow (May 23) you can look to these events for some PKN satisfaction: PKN Prague Vol. 29, PKN Ekaterinburg Vol. 3, PKN Leksand Vol. 4, and PKN Copenhagen's very special Vol. 20.
