ORIGINAL CITY POINTER (Registered User)NOTHING has been trimmed that is blocking the sidewalk on Sea St.and the shrub that was trimmed which caused the blind spot entering Howard Ave.was not trimmed enough to eliminate the problem. Do you know that New Haven can legally trim anything that is pertruding on city property even if the shrubs in question belong to someone else? I did? So this is what you do;
_ you give him time frame to comply
_ you check to see if he complied within the time frame
_ if he didn't, the city takes responibility to get the job done
It's not brain surgery!
What am I paying taxes for? Maybe a call to the mayor's office with photos and a paper trail of emails would move things along.
LCI Hill North/South (Verified Official)City Pointer, please call me to discuss further 2039467731
ORIGINAL CITY POINTER (Registered User)How about calling the home owner and telling him he has to trim the overgrowth or the city will? When was he notified? How long was he told he has to comply? What was he told the consequences would be if he didn't comply? Why is this so complicated?

New Speed Bumps; Greenwich Ave: Thanks! [Traffic/Road Safety] ► Open422 Greenwich Ave New Haven, Connecticut 06519Thanks to the NEIGHBORS who spearheaded the effort to get THREE speedbumps installed on Greenwich Ave! And thank you, City of #NHV for FINALLY listening to taxpayers and installing them.
This was a grassroots effort by several folks who live on Greenwich Ave. For their privacy, I'm not mentioning names, but all of us who live on or near Greenwich Ave. thank you!

Thanks for sharing Chris. I am curious to learn more. We tried to get them for south water and sea streets. We had over 100 signatures of support to go with our Complete Street Application, including support from Sound School and, at the time, the Sage Restaurant.
We were told that, based on traffic counts and recorded traffic speeds we don't qualify. I'd love to know what you and your neighbors did to push it through.
Please share!
christopher schaefer (Registered User)I actually had nothing to do with it, other than sign a petition. However, a few neighbors (whom I'll not name) were particularly vocal about the need for speedbumps on Greenwich. I told the individuals with the petition that the petition alone was not the way one is "supposed" to do this; one needs to go online and follow instructions re Complete Street Application, etc. At least one of the individuals did not have internet access at the time but replied "I've heard there's such a thing as a Complete Street Application online, but we're starting with this petition". I have not been able to attend Hill South Management Team meetings for over a year now, due to a schedule conflict. So perhaps someone who DOES attend regularly can tell us what happened next.
When they were installing the Greenwich Ave speedbumps several days ago, a neighbor told me that Hallock Ave (approx. between First and Fourth?) is getting them next and that the city's immediate goal is to have them on the streets that run parallel to major thoroughfares like Howard (i.e. not on Howard itself but on Greenwich and Hallock Ave).
So if the immediate goal does not include cross streets, then 'perhaps' that is the REAL reason why Sea and S. Water St. did not qualify?
Anna Mariotti (Registered User)Thanks again, Chris. I will follow up with the management team and hopefully secure more info. Congrats to the group who made it happen!

guest (Guest)For all the time and money put into this, the planning and implementation are amazingly lacking in wisdom at some crucial spots. and that is putting it nicely. It seems the only focus has been to complete the building itself, and access.. They told us residents a lot of lies when the residents pointed out flaws, oversights, and needs at those meetings that were held awhile back? If they had listened to us it would be much better,, but.. do they care?? I think not. They are making a lot of money for themselves and that's what matters most.

Hill Resident (Registered User)I would take ONE more opportunity to tell her 'IT IS ILLEGAL TO LET YOUR DOG POOP AND NOT CLEAN IT UP'. City of NH Municipal Code Sec. 7-4. states that "Animals not to be permitted at large; fouling of public places; removal of feces". Then I would ask her if she doesn't want her dog to poop in front of her own house, why would you want it to poop in front of yours? If she doesn't clean it up, I would take her picture (face and clothing) and call the police. Wait for the patrol officer and show him the picture, if you can, give him her address and let him know you want them to address this issue as IT IS AGAINST THE LAW and she should be issued a ticket!

Alleged Nokia N9 specs appear on a Chinese website
Meego will finally arrive on a phone
IT'S ANOTHER SLAP in the face for Intel as Nokia's upcoming N9 smartphone appears to be using a Qualcomm chip and not Chipzilla's Moorestown platform in specifications that have appeared on a Chinese website.
Less than a week after photos appeared online on a Chinese website a document apparently detailing the technical specifications for the Nokia N9 has appeared.
According to the website the next Nokia smartphone will run on a Qualcomm 1GHz QSD8250 processor with 512MB of RAM, 1GB of NAND flash memory and 64GB of internal storage. The device will also have microSD removable media.
The device will have a 4-inch Super AMOLED screen and is reported to be running the first version of the Meego operating system that Nokia plans to use to replace the Symbian OS in its high-end smartphones, according to screenshots.
For connectivity the device will have HSPA+ cellular connectivity and will support 802.11b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth 2.0 for peripheral devices. The specifications also indicate it can take 720p video at 30 frames per second. According to the leaked photos the handset will have a hard QWERTY keyboard.
The leaked product code matches those of Nokia's hardware prototype line, suggesting that this reliable data. µ

Clarke pulls out of US Open to focus on Ryder Cup
European Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke has withdrawn from next week's US Open at Oakmont.
European Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke has withdrawn from next week's US Open at Oakmont.
Ian Poulter has been named as one of Europe's vice captains for this year's Ryder Cup after the Englishman wrote off his chances of making the team as a player.
Matt Fitzpatrick admitted he was "a million miles" ahead of schedule after claiming his second European Tour title in the Nordea Masters to boost his chances of a Ryder Cup debut in September.
Ian Poulter is expected to miss the next four months of the season due to a foot injury, effectively ending his chances of qualifying automatically for the Ryder Cup.
England's Chris Wood produced a record-equalling performance to claim the biggest win of his career in the BMW PGA Championship and get within touching distance of securing a Ryder Cup debut.
European captain Darren Clarke expects honesty, expert opinion and the occasional uncomfortable truth from Thomas Bjorn, Padraig Harrington and Paul Lawrie after naming them as three of his five vice-captains for this year's Ryder Cup.
Pádraig Harrington has expressed his delight at being selected as a European vice-captain for the upcoming Ryder Cup and says he has been impressed by the thorough approach of skipper Darren Clarke.
Ed Leahy runs the rule over the Arnold Palmer-designed 18 holes that await this year's Irish Open contenders.
US captain Davis Love III is hoping to learn from previous mistakes his compatriots have made as he bids to lead his side to Ryder Cup glory over Europe in October.
Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke has led the tributes to the "father" of Irish golf, Christy O'Connor Sr, who has died at the age of 91.
Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke has hailed the "wonderful" performance of Europe's top players at the Masters.
New Masters champion Danny Willett can go on to scale even greater heights, says former Ryder Cup player Des Smyth.
Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke insists he will shed no tears at the end of what could be his final appearance in the Masters this week.
Lee Westwood wants the chance to captain Europe at the 2020 Ryder Cup at Whistling Straits after saying he has only another two to three years left as a player.
Ryder Cup star Ian Poulter failed to secure his first victory since 2012 as Tony Finau won his maiden PGA Tour title in a play-off in the Puerto Rico Open.
Ryder Cup star Ian Poulter will take a slender lead into the final round of the Puerto Rico Open as he looks to claim his first victory since 2012.
Former Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley believes Rory McIlroy needs to eliminate mental errors to get back to winning ways, likening the four-time major winner to a football team conceding too many goals.
Three-time major winner Padraig Harrington admits his chances of playing in the Ryder Cup and the Olympics are "real long shots".
Graeme McDowell has said his OHL Classic victory back in November has "taken the pressure" off and freed him up to make a serious push for Ryder Cup selection.
Men's teams from Europe and the Rest of the World will begin a Ryder Cup-style competition in 2017 that will be named after Australian great Rod Laver, organisers said today.

Jihoon Kim, Royal Opera House, London
Jihoon Kim is shining proof that the Jette Parker Young Artists Programme at the Royal Opera House, London, develops singers into complete artists.
In a recent article in BBC Music Magazine tenor James Gilchrist reflected on the reason why early-nineteenth-century England produced no corpus of art song to match the German lieder of Schumann, Schubert and others, despite the great flowering of English Romantic poetry during this period.
With the New York Premiere of Florencia en el Amazonas, the New York City Opera Steps Out of the Shadows of the Past
Opportunities to see Idomeneo are not so frequent as they might be, certainly not so frequent as they should be.
Not merely Don Carlo, but the five-act Don Carlo in the 1886 Modena version! The welcomed esotericism of San Francisco Opera's extraordinary spring season.
The early summer San Francisco Opera season has the feel of a classy festival. There is an introduction of Spanish director Calixto Bieito to American audiences, a five-act Don Carlo and two awaited, inevitable role debuts, Karita Mattila as Kostelnička and Malin Bystrom as Janacek's Jenůfa.
Now that the curtain has long fallen on the third and last performance of the Ring cycle at the Washington National Opera (WNO), it is safe to say that the long-anticipated production has been an unqualified success for the company, director Francesca Zambello, and conductor Philippe Auguin.
Most of the attention during this revival of Daniele Abbado's 2013 production of Nabucco has been directed at Plácido Domingo's reprise of the title role, with the critical reception somewhat mixed.
Four years ago, almost to the day (13th to 12th), I saw Melly Still's production of The Cunning Little Vixen during its first Glyndebourne run. I found myself surprised how much more warmly I responded to it this time.
This recital celebrated both the work of the Park Lane Group, which has been supporting the careers of outstanding young artists for 60 years, and the 90th birthday of Joseph Horovitz, who was born in Vienna in 1926 and emigrated to England aged 12.
Headed by General Director Luana DeVol, a world-renowned dramatic soprano, Opera Las Vegas is a relatively new company that presents opera with first-rate casts at the University of Las Vegas's Judy Bayley Theater. In 2014 they presented Rossini's The Barber of Seville and in 2015, Puccini's Madama Butterfly. This year they offered a blazing rendition of Georges Bizet's Carmen.
Ever since a friend was reported as having said he would like something in return for modern-dress Shakespeare (how quaint that term seems now, as if anyone would bat an eyelid!), namely an Elizabethan-dress staging of Look Back in Anger, I have been curious about the possibilities of 'down-dating', as I suppose we might call it. Rarely, if ever, do we see it, though.
Leading a very muscular Dutch Radio Philharmonic, Principal Conductor Markus Stenz brilliantly delivered Alban Berg's Wozzeck with a superb Florian Boesch in the lead and a mesmerising Asmik Grigorian as Marie his wife.
There can't be that many operas that start with an extended solo for double bass. At Holland Park, the eerie, angular melody for lone bass player which opens Pietro Mascagni's Iris immediately unsettled the relaxed mood of the summer evening.
George Souglides' set for Will Tuckett's new production of Rossini's L'italiana in Algeri at Garsington would surely have delighted Liberace.
Calixto Bieito is always news, Carmen with a good cast is always news. So here is the news.
Distinguished theatre director Michael Boyd's first operatic outing was his brilliant re-invention of Monteverdi's L'Orfeo for the Royal Opera at the Roundhouse in 2015, so what he did next was always going to rouse interest.
Although Bohuslav Martinů's short operas Ariane and Alexandre bis date from 1958 and 1937 respectively, there was a distinct tint of 1920s Parisian surrealism about director Rodula Gaitanou's double bill, as presented by the postgraduate students of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
The eyes of the opera world turned recently to Dresden—the city where Wagner premiered his Rienzi, Fliegende Holländer, and Tannhäuser—for an important performance of Lohengrin. For once in Germany it was not about the staging.
Having been privileged already to see in little over two months two great productions of Die Meistersinger, one in Paris (Stefan Herheim) and one in Munich (David Bösch), I was unable to resist the prospect of a third staging, at Glyndebourne.
'Mack does bad things.' The tabloid headline that convinces Rory Kinnear's surly, sharp-suited Macheath that it might be time to take a short holiday epitomizes the cold, understated menace of Rufus Norris's production of Simon Stephens' new adaptation of The Threepenny Opera at the Olivier Theatre.
Jihoon Kim is shining proof that the Jette Parker Young Artists Programme at the Royal Opera House, London, develops singers into complete artists.
Kim's rich, resonant bass is much admired. During his two years as a Jette Parker Young Artist in 2011/13 he was cast in a wide range of roles at the Royal Opera House, from Alessio in Bellini's La sonnambula and Colline in Puccini's La bohème to the Ghost of Hector in Berlioz's Les Troyens. After completing the Programme, he was offered a one year contract as a Royal Opera principal, covering more than 50 performances in the current season - in fact, when he sings Stimme der Wächter on the first night of Strauss' Die Frau ohne Schatten it will be his 100th performance on the main stage.
In Verdi Les vêpres sicilennes, Kim's Robert was so distinctive that James Sohre wrote in http://www.operatoday.com/content/2013/10/londons_vespers.php, "As one would expect at Covent Garden, all of the minor roles were polished and poised, but I particularly enjoyed Jihoon Kim as Robert. The ROH is right to place such confidence in him and to nurture a performer of such accomplishment and real individuality. His rolling, dark bass surely has a bright future". Watching the HD broadcast of that production, I noticed how often Director Stefan Herheim used Kim at many critical points in the drama, far more often than the actual singing part required. Kim appeared many times in close-ups because he has presence, even when he was not singing.
Particpants in the Jette Parker Young Artists Programme have considerable professional experience even before they join the scheme. The programme polishes these skills so they learn all aspects of their profession. Coaching includes languages, musical style, interpretation, stagecraft, acting and movement. There is more to being an opera singer than singing alone. Because the programme focuses on practical performance skills, Young Artists give individual recitals, as well as participating in main house productions. Jihoon Kim's recital in the Paul Hamlyn Hall in the Royal Opera House in December 2013was unique, however, because he sang Korean Art Song, a genre almost unknown in the west.
Jihoon Kim with ensemble
Korean Art song or Gagok are songs composed in the Western form. Borrowing the melody of hymns from the end of the 19th century Gagok began in the 1920s, when Korea was occupied by Japan, and continues to flourish today. In South Korea, classical music is cherished and music education standards very high. The songs describe mountains, woodlands and the simple life of Korean peasants, celebrating national culture and identity, much as Grieg and Dvořák did in Europe. The lyricism in the music of Gagok expresses nostalgia, but also a more subtle sensibility. "Deep in the woodland" writes the poet Donghwan Kim, set by composer Wonshik Lim in 1942, "a spring never seen or found trickles secretly I take a sip, returning home with pleasure, for the spring will remain my own, secretly"
"Another aspect of Korean Art Song", says Kim, "is that it mainly consists of a lyrical melody (cantilena), which does not require a trained vocalization, to be sung easily by the general public." Kim is modest, though, for some of these songs are technically sophisticated and benefit from his sensitivity to musical form. Dongsu Shin's Dear Mountain (1983) is a particularly beautiful song, allowing Kim to showcase the range of colours in his voice. In Hoon Byeon's Pollack (1952), fast paced, ever-changing rhythms suggest the movement of a fish frolicking in the sea before it gets caught in a net. Kim sang with agile flexibility and freshness, quite unusual in his fach. The fish is "ripped to shreds, my body may disappear but my name will remain, as Pollack, Pollack, I will remain in this world". There is humour in the song, but also bitter irony. The very fact that Kim was able to express these complex feelings to an audience who did not speak Korean shows how well he can communicate : a valuable skill in opera. Kim could convey meaning so well that many in the audience could follow the spirit of the songs, such as the drinking song, without needing translations at all.
Kim sang some songs accompanied by pianist Jean-Paul Pruna. Pruna, who was a member of the Young Artists Programme in 2010/12, postponed his return to Holland for his current engagement with Reisoper in order to take part. Kim also built the programme to include performances on traditional Korean instruments, in order to show how modern art song connected to traditional form. Hyelim Kim played taegŭm, a transverse bamboo flute. She played Chʻŏngsŏnggok, a melody used in Korean court circles. It was transposed an octave higher in parts to maximize the distinctive buzzing articulation of the membrane within the instrument, which acts as a kind of sympathetic resonator.
Hyunsu Song played the haegŭm, a two-stringed bowed string instrument. A percussion ensemble joined Kim and the other soloists for larger pieces, such as the three variations of Arirang. The Koreans in the audience started to clap in rhythm with the percussive pulse, underlining the changing shape and form. For westerners, who aren't used to participating in classical music, this was quite an education.
For an encore, Kim sang a lullaby his mother sang to him when he was a baby. Although he was so young, he responded to the emotion in the song and used to weep. "Maybe it's the song that made me become a singer", he said. The ability to feel and express emotion is perhaps fundamental to the art of song. Kim sang the song first sotto voce, barely above a whisper, conveying the idea of a song heard as distant memory. Then he sang it again with confidence. We could hear the boy grown into a man with a bright future. I was very moved.
As an extra theatrical touch, Kim wore a hanbok, a spectacular silk costume, loaned by Somssimyoungga, the only luxury traditional company designing bespoke Korean garments. Kim thinks as an opera artist, who understands the importance of visual images. Kim also has exceptional organization skills, putting together the whole programme and people involved on his own initiative. Great attention to detail : at one stage, the bow of the haegŭm brushed too close to a microphone. Without missing a note, Kim bent over and fixed things.
This was a unique recital, from an unusually promising young singer who has justified the faith the Royal Opera House has placed in him.

When I often see the rainbow I see the beauty of God's design and also His promise.
God's Promise to Noah
9 So God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them: Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. 2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, on every bird of the air, on all that move on the earth, and on all the fish of the sea. They are given into your hand. 3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you all things, even as the green herbs. 4 But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. 5 Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning; from the hand of every beast I will require it, and from the hand of man. From the hand of every man's brother I will require the life of man.
6 Whoever sheds man's blood,
By man his blood shall be shed;
For in the image of God
He made man.
7 And as for you, be fruitful and multiply;
Bring forth abundantly in the earth
And multiply in it.
8 Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying: 9 And as for Me, behold, I establish My covenant with you and with your descendants[b] after you, 10 and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ark, every beast of the earth. 11 Thus I establish My covenant with you: Never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood; never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth. 12 And God said: This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 13 I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. 14 It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; 15 and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth. 17 And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth. New King James Version (NKJV)

Before the post-game press conference, Indiana coach Tom Crean read a prepared statement about Jeremy Hollowell and the reason he didn't dress for Saturday's game. It follows.
Jeremy is dealing with a personal and a private matter that is in no way related to academic behavior or disciplinary issues. He has our full support as we look for a quick resolution. Out of respect for he and his family, we will not discuss it any further.
Hopefully a resolution can come soon. Good things will happen for Jeremy, if he stays the coarse. If you believe the twitter transfer rumors that is. Regardless, I hope Jeremy does what is best for Jeremy.
So I hear a rumor there is questions about Hollowells eligibility? Is the NCAA on a witch hunt against Iu still? DD can you look into it?
"So I hear a rumor" becomes "…someone posted that on Twitter, " without sourcing or confirmation after CTC stated it had "nothing to do with academic behavior or discipline."
It seems to me it is important to not give much credibility to "twitter rumors' nor agitate the readership, speculate and begin to ascertain facts before reacting to them publicly, don't you think so AZHoosier? don't you agree DD that we would all be better off without paying attention and 'creating a rumor' every time someone passes gas?
I'd be happy if JH was allowed to do what he has to do to resolve his problems with the support of his Hoosier family, and that CTC kept us up to date with information. Though, I must admit that the athletic information office does not always appears to be forthcoming and timely to Hoosier followers and CTC seems to confuse as much as he clarifies to rather simple and straight forward issues.
So DD, even if they don't give you the time of day, would you pass along our concerns to the Athletic Department. Given our support, don't you agree we deserve better?
Maybe he's refusing to pray in the locker room.
Haha Harvard. 🙂
There are things in his life other than basketball!!??
I got to get back the my "Hoosier Basketball In the 90's All Day Marathon".
Some guy on Yahoo Sports Re; Holloway. Indirect agent contact. That would be strange. Not seen the type of play out of him yet that would support agent contact.
We'll have a good test against Jacksonville before B1G play. Oh, sorry, wrong. Ranked #312 and Fl Atlantic at #260. We did look pretty good, at least in the first half playing #260. If someone gets hurt playing #312 I may go off the deep end.
I think of all the kids that crash and burn when they head off to school (ever hear of Larry Bird?) and it's amazing the percentage of athletes that don't. Sure, at a school like IU they have a better support that most of the student body but they're still kids. My kids were required to spend X amount of time in a study area with an 'academic coach' that was more like a TA/Mom than anything else. They were pretty solid students already but I'm sure she saved a lot of kids' butts. They phased it out over 2 or 3 semesters.
At the Ivy League school they don't give any such help. Sink or swim.
I've always assumed Jeremy's affect was just the way he is but the dude never looked very happy. Let's not just assume it's about basketball, though. Life has many facets that affect a person's well being other than sport (hard to believe, I know).
He's just a kid and, whatever he chooses, I hope it makes him happy.
Forgot to add I take the Yahoo guy with a grain of salt. Crean said the reson was personal and private. Don't think that quote would cover ncaa issues
Thanks DD. safe drive and happy holidays
You do a truly great job, DD! Thank you!

Newin's "sick" justice
The saga of Newin Chidchob's boxing-ring justice would never have materialised had the police been doing their job properly. Of course, this being Thailand, that eventuality is like wishing for snow on Bangkok streets.
No, it isn't fair to force brawling teenagers to fight professional boxers. But since when have any ideas from politicians been fair? Newin was just doing what comes naturally. What I would really have liked to see was Newin fighting those brawling kids himself. Now that would be a match worth watching and discussing - next Songkran, maybe? Of course, I am pretty sick-minded myself, being a product of Thailand's messed-up society.

Perhaps the writer of that blog was out participating in a Big Brother program or helping to feed the homeless. One should not be so quick to judge the benevolent heart of one such as him. My admiration of his character cannot be measured. Please join me in sharing the love, extending the olive branch. I'm certain that if it were possible in cyber world he would dot each "i" with a tiny little heart. And don't forget to hug a puppy today.
blogging impact
Stating the obvious here, but I think it's cool that the inclusion of that question in the jury selection questionnaire is such a clear indicator of the impact your blogging has on both local politics and media, Randy.

We have three noted keynote speakers planned. Their presentations will cover a wide span of Mathsport topics.
- Ken Quarrie (Sports Analyst and The All Blacks)
- Sam Robertson (Sports Performance Analytics, Victoria University and the Western Bulldogs)
- Gary McCoy (Bond University, Surf Lifesaving, Surf Hazard Ratings)
We hope to have guests from the Western Bulldogs speak as well.
Topics for the Conference
The conference will cover, but is not limited to, the following topics of interest to sports scientists, mathematicians, statisticians, coaches and athletes. The term "sport" is interpreted liberally here and includes games and pastimes, gambling, general fitness and health-related activities.
- Analysis of rules, adjudication, and referee decision-making
- Application of gambling methodology
- Competitive strategy and methods for in-game strategy
- Computational analysis in sport
- Econometrics in sport
- Identification, analysis and mitigation of sports injuries
- Mathematical modeling in sport
- Optimal tournament design and scheduling
- Quantitative approaches to improve coaching and optimize individual performance
- Statistical and machine learning methods applied to motion capture and wearable technologies
- Statistics and statistical modeling in sport
- Teaching of mathematics and computers in sport
- The statistics of performance measurement
On 10 July, the day before we start, there is a footy match between Carlton and Adelaide at the MCG. We will try to find a way for you to buy tickets seated together.
For each of the three days, your conference fee will include coffee/tea before we start, coffee/tea at the morning break, lunch and coffee/tea at the afternoon break. The chef will have treats for us at each break. You will receive the Proceedings as part of your conference fee.
Mathsport Activity
After our first day of talks on 11 July, your conference fee will include a visit to the National Sports Museum at the MCG. That museum has the best coverage of sports that you will experience anywhere. It will seem that Shane Warne is there to reminisce on his career. You can try your hand (or foot) at shooting a netball goal, kicking for a soccer goal and experiencing a cricket crease.
Conference Dinner
Your fee will include a conference dinner on 12 July, at the nearby Young and Jackson pub at Flinders and Swanston.
Conference Fees
The fees below are good until 1 June, 2016. After that date add, $50.
- AustMS or ANZIAM Members: $375
- Non members: $425
- Students: $325
Pay your fees online at Trybooking.com. Use this link.
Abstract submissions
The template for your (maximum) 300 word abstract is available here. It is the same template as used before. Please transmit your abstract by 15 March to email@example.com or to email@example.com.
If you need more time, please let us know at the same email address. We will provide all acceptances ASAP after receipt. We will upload a document with all abstracts to this webpage as soon as practicable after 15 March. We will setup the conference schedule at that time, which will also be available from this webpage.
The template for your (maximum) six-page paper is available here. We have simplified the template used previously. There is now one column throughout, eliminating the tedious task of switching between one and two columns, depending on table and figure size. We have eliminated many of the line spaces to leave you more room for your (maximum) six-page paper.
Please transmit your paper by 15 May to firstname.lastname@example.com.
All papers will be reviewed. We plan to complete the Proceedings by 15 June.

Animal, Vegetal, Mineral?
Animal, Vegetal, Mineral? Emergence and function of complex nanostructures in biological tissue and synthetic self-assembly
Dates: 19–23 September 2016
Venue: Cavehouse Hotel, Yallingup, Western Australia
Complex nanostructures abound in biological tissue and related synthetic soft materials. These convoluted forms remain largely unexplored, both in terms of how and why they emerge, and undoubtedly involve interplay of biology in vivo with physicochemical factors at work in vitro. 'Animal Vegetal Mineral' will be an interdisciplinary forum to discuss and attempt to demarcate the similarities and differences between structure formation mechanisms in biological materials and synthetic soft self-assembled materials. We invite and welcome interested scientific researchers from biology, chemistry, materials science, physics and mathematics to join us for an open-minded exploration of the relations between shape, structure formation and function in biological tissue and nano- and mesostructured materials.

Forum Mathematics-for-Industry 2016: Biology, Agriculture and Environment
Dates: 21–23 November 2016
Venue: Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane
(Theme, Advert)
The Forum Mathematics-for-Industry (FMfI), initially an initiative of the Institute of Mathematics-for-Industry (IMI), Kyushu University, has evolved to become an initiative of the Asia-Pacific Consortium of Mathematics-for-Industry (APCMfI) . Further information is available using the links https://www.google.com.au/#q=imi+kyushu+university, http://apcmfi.org/, http://fmi2015.imi.kyushu-u.ac.jp/.
The agricultural process of planting a seed, fertilizing, growing and harvesting has a clear parallel with the application of mathematics to a practical problem. The seed becomes the question being asked, the fertilization is the conceptualization of the mathematical framework within which to seek the answer, the growing is the solution process, and the harvesting is the articulation and implementation of the answer.
In agriculture: the breeding of the seed to plant involves genetics; the germination of the plant involves moisture alone; the growth involves the interaction between the biology and environment with soil, water and weather the key drivers; the survival depends on its ability to respond to viral and fungal infections and stress challenges; and the flowering and setting of the seed for the next generation depends on the occurrence of environmental cues.
For understanding the processes and mechanisms involved with each of these steps, mathematical modelling is central. This is reflected in the emergence of new mathematically-focussed agriculture endeavours such as precision agriculture, smart agriculture analytics and digital agriculture.
The success of agriculture practice relies fundamentally on its interconnections with and dependence on biology and the environment. Both play fundamental roles including the adaption of biology to cope with environmental challenges of biotic and abiotic stress and global warming. The outputs from agriculture sustain human survival while that from the application and development of mathematics support the knowledge and expertise of the sciences on which successful agricultural practice depends and exploits. The talks will explore the contribution of mathematics within the framework of the interaction of agriculture with biology and the environment.
