SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:ISP Conference. After Alexander: Classical Texts in Arabic\, Persian\, and Armenian
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, translations between the classical languages – principally Greek\, Arabic and Latin – in the western Mediterranean have attracted robust scholarly attention. This conference aims to shift attention to a prequel to the late medieval translation movement in the west. The title suggests both a geography – east of the Mediterranean – and a historical arc\, late antique and medieval (or Umayyad and Abbasid). The conference will explore the entangled traditions of scientific and literary translation that flourished after Islamic expansion into territories once conquered by Alexander and ruled by the Sasanian Empire\, where Arabic\, Persian and Armenian intellectual and literary traditions encountered and responded to the heritage of the Greeks – and to each other.\n\nThis conference is presented in conjunction with the Classical Translation Contest - Classical Arabic\, Persian\, Armenian\, and Turkish. Open to all U-M undergraduate and graduate students. Winners of this contest will be invited to present their translations on April 18\, 2016 during the “After Alexander” conference. Submissions for the contest are due on Friday\, April 1\, 2016 by 5:00 PM to the Comparative Literature Main Office\, 2021 Tisch Hall (2nd floor). Visit http://lsa.umich.edu/contextsforclassics for details.\n\nSponsors: Islamic Studies Program\, Armenian Studies Program\, Center for European Studies\, Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, Contexts for Classics\, Department of Classical Studies\, Department of Comparative Literature\, Department of Near Eastern Studies\, Institute for the Humanities\, Medieval and Early Modern Studies

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Set Valued Dynamic Treatment Regimes
DESCRIPTION:Dynamic Treatment Regimes (DTRs) are composed of sequences of decision rules\, one per stage of treatment. Each decision rule inputs patient information and outputs a single recommended treatment. While the majority of present studies focus on finding the optimal DTR\, we take another approach. Instead of trying to determine the true best DTR\, we aim to construct a set of DTRs such that the true best DTR is contained in this set with a desired probability. The reasons are as follows: (1) Usually we do not have enough data to identify the best DTR and (2) we want to give patients and clinicians more options. To discuss the second reason in more detail\, patients and clinicians might have treatment preferences related to cost\, side effects or convenience\, etc. Thus\, our goal is to provide a recommended set of DTRs\, such that the DTRs contained in the set are those we cannot distinguish from the best\, while the DTRs we exclude are those that are certain to be inferior with high condence. This idea comes from decision support: we do not tell patients and clinicians what to do\; we do not offer treatments known to be inferior. Rather we offer a set of treatments that excludes inferior treatments. In this thesis we develop a set valued DTR in which the decision rules at each stage can output a set of treatments. Second we develop an approach for constructing a recommended set of DTRs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CID Presents: Rebuilding Citizenship for the Twenty-first Century
DESCRIPTION:Citizen Interaction Design Presents:\n \n\"Rebuilding Citizenship for the Twenty-first Century\"\n\nGood governance now is intimately linked with digital\, and technology can reconnect people with their government\, Bracy believes. Citizens need to participate in this system of governance--at least at the local level--if they want to see an improvement in services.\n \n\"We don't have to just complain about what is broken in our communities\; we can use our skills to help fix it.”\n \nSpeaker Bio:\n\nCatherine Bracy is dedicated to bringing together local governments and technologists in a concerted effort to make better cities for everyone. She formerly served on Code for America's senior leadership team\, overseeing all public-facing programming. At Code for America\, she previously was the Director of Community Organizing\, responsible for Code for America's community network-building initiatives\, including the citizen volunteer program (the Brigade) and the international partnership program (Code for All).  \n \nUntil November 2012\, she was a product manager and director of the Obama campaign’s technology field office in San Francisco\, the first of its kind in American political history.  In that role she was responsible for organizing technologists to volunteer their skills to the campaign’s technology and digital efforts. Prior to joining the campaign\, she ran the Knight Foundation’s 2011 News Challenge and before that was the administrative director at Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet & Society.  She also sits on the board of directors of the Citizen Engagement Lab and the Public Laboratory for Open Technology and Science.

SUMMARY:Performance:Kiefer Sutherland
DESCRIPTION:Kiefer Sutherland has been a professional actor for over 30 years\, starring in movies like \"Stand By Me\,\" \"The Lost Boys\,\" \"Young Guns.\" \"Flatliners\,\" \"A Few Good Men\,\" \"A Time to Kill\,\" \"Dark City\,\" \"Melancholia\,\" and most recently\, a western called \"Forsaken\,\" as well as the TV series \"24.\"\n\nBut unknown to many during the course of his career\, he has taken on other vocations with the same kind of dedication and commitment. The first one\, beginning around 1992\, was that of a cattle rancher and competitive cowboy (roper) in the USTRC team roping circuit. He ran a successful ranch with partner John English for almost a decade. During that timeframe\, Sutherland won numerous roping events around the country including Phoenix\, Indio and the Los Angeles Open.\n\nIn 2002\, Sutherland\, with his music partner and best friend Jude Cole\, began a small record label called Ironworks. The goal of this label was to record local musicians and distribute their music at a time when the music industry was going through a monumental shift. Some of their artists included Rocco DeLuca and the Burden\, HoneyHoney and Billy Boy On Poison. In 2009\, Sutherland left the label to recharge and figure out what he was going to do next.\n\nIn early 2015 Sutherland played Cole two songs he had written and wanted to record as demos for other artists to record. Cole responded positively to the songs and the album grew organically from those recordings. Two songs became four and four grew into six\, until Cole suggested that they make a record. Their collaboration resulted in Kiefer Sutherland’s upcoming debut album: \"Down In A Hole.\"\n\nSutherland says of the 11 tracks that make up the album\, “It’s the closest thing I’ve ever had to a journal or diary. All of these songs are pulled from my own personal experiences. There is something very satisfying about being able to look back on my own life\, good times and bad\, and express those sentiments in music. As much as I have enjoyed the writing and recording process\, I am experiencing great joy now being able to play these songs to a live audience\, which was something I hadn’t counted on.\"
