One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520805@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180914T120028 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180914T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180914T150000 SUMMARY:Other:MSU Spartan Invite DESCRIPTION:Meet hosted by MSU:Men's 8kWomen's 6k  UID:54850-13647279@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/54850 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Michigan State University’s - Forest Akers East Golf Course CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180823T142026 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180914T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180914T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Draft DESCRIPTION:African-Canadian artist Esmaa Mohamoud investigates the intangibility of Blackness through issues surrounding Black representation and Black body politics in contemporary spaces.

'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies.

This solution in turn entails transcending the twin challenges of: modeling the complex thermal physics of AM\, and Big Data analytics\, wherein existing finite element modeling\, and statistical machine learning approaches\, respectively\, are limited owing to their computational tortuosity. \n\nIncidentally\, an approach to overcome these challenges can be forwarded from the domain of spectral graph theory. The graph theoretic approach allows discrete approximation of heat flux in AM parts\, which reduces computation time to minutes\, as well as\, facilitates data from different sensors to be analyzed simultaneously and quickly. The efficacy of this graph theoretic approach is seconded based on data generated and shared by collaborators at NIST\, Penn State\, and Edison Welding Institute.\n\nBio:\nPrahalada Rao is currently an Assistant Professor in the Mechanical and Materials Engineering Department\, University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

Facebook\, Politics\, and Participation in the Philippines DESCRIPTION:Filipinos spend more time on social media than anyone else in the world\, yet little is understood about how social media impacts politics in the Philippines. The speakers have examined the broad relationship between Facebook usage and political participation in an increasingly digitally networked Philippines society. New scholarship in political communication espouses a strong positive relationship between social media and the rise of populist politicians\, but this hypothesis may not hold true in the case of Rodrigo Duterte's electoral victory. Citing survey findings and social network analysis following the 2016 presidential election\, the speakers will demonstrate that political engagement via Facebook played a key role in this unprecedented election\, but not in ways previous research has posited. The speakers will use their findings to explain the implications for future political developments in the Philippines and across Southeast Asia. \n \nAim Sinpeng is a lecturer in the Department of Government and International Relations at the University of Sydney.

Despite its importance in practical applications\, \ntheoretical understanding of this problem has been limited. We first show that from a \nworst-case perspective\, the convergence rate of the LSE in a general non-parametric regression model is given by the maximum of the Gaussian regression rate and the noise rate induced by the errors. In the more difficult statistical model where the errors only have a second moment\, we further show that the sizes of the 'localized envelopes' of the model give a sharp interpolation for the convergence rate of the LSE between the worst-case rate and the (optimal) parametric rate.\nThese results indicate both certain positive and negative aspects of the LSE as an estimation procedure in a heavy-tailed regression setting. The key technical innovation is a new multiplier inequality that sharply controls the size of the multiplier empirical process associated with the LSE\, which also finds applications in shape-restricted and sparse linear regression problems.

Hoskins was a dance major at Middlebury College and received his MFA from SMTD\, where he specialized in choreography. He is an avid improviser and creator. As a teacher\, Hoskins directed the dance program at Blair Academy and has taught courses and workshops at U-M\, Wayne State University\, Oakland University\, Middlebury\, and Bates colleges\, and regularly at regional American College Dance Association conferences. Hoskins is currently the dance technology coordinator and part-time faculty at SMTD.\n\n\nEach Modern Lab session features a different guest artist teaching a master class and sections from their repertory. This panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the students’ awareness of potential career possibilities. Each guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class. In the final 15 minutes\, faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q & A with each artist\, discussing their career\; their recommendations for transitioning from student to professional\, and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.\n\nThis event supported in part by the EXCEL Lab.

DESCRIPTION:Dr. Flannagan will talk about a study that she led in 2013-2015 during the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) (EU-US trade) negotiations. The study evaluated whether EU-regulated cars and US-regulated cars could be deemed \"equally safe.\" She will focus on the methods and some of the political context for this study that made the choice of methods critical. In the study\, she and her colleagues used both Bayesian and non-Bayesian methods\, but she'll focus on the Bayesian approach that they took. Although the particular study is closer to Epidemiology than Psychology per se\, it has obvious parallels to any situation in which the question of \"are these the same\" is of great importance. In addition\, the sponsor had a particular point of view that had implications for the methods the team used and the conclusions they could draw.

Just a couple years earlier\, Shenzhen was largely known as a place of copycats and fakes that lacked creativity where ideas created elsewhere were simply executed and mass produced. What happened within the timespan of only a few years that changed Shenzhen’s image from demonstrating China’s continuous lag in technology innovation towards a place where alternatives to neoliberal capitalism could be prototyped? In this talk\, I present excerpts from my forthcoming book “The Promise of Making” to unpack the historical contingencies of this transformation of Shenzhen\, and with it China\, in the global tech imaginary. Drawing from more than seven years of ethnographic research\, I show how the displacement of technooptimistic onto Shenzhen unfolded through and alongside the emergence of “making” as a mode of intervention in the status-quo by hacking not only machines\, but also markets and work itself. Shenzhen\, I show\, was rendered by open source hardware advocates\, venture capitalists\, avant-garde designers\, Chinese politicians and state actors alike as a laboratory to prototype what I call “entrepreneurial living\,” i.e. a naturalization of experimentation as a mode of “living on\" amidst a pervasive economization of life. While making reformulated a key neoliberal logic of self-economization as a story of empowerment by promising to include ever more people in its call for self-transformation into human capital\, Shenzhen came to be seen as the place to accomplish this upgrade of the self and to regain a sense of control amidst anxieties over economic and environmental crisis. Entrepreneurial living as an analytical frame moves beyond a theorization of making or hacking as a countercultural or grassroots movement that exists separate or independent from the systems it sets out to challenge\, but points instead to the parasitic relations between contemporary maker cultures\, China’s shifting relations in geopolitics and the global political economy.

DESCRIPTION:Dark matter and inflation represent two of the biggest open question in cosmology. Although they are generally thought of as distinct and unrelated phenomena\, here I will ask whether they might be closely connected. In particular\, I will describe a class of models in which a stable inflaton is produced as a thermal relic in the early universe and constitutes the dark matter. I will show that the annihilations of these inflatons can efficiently reheat the universe\, and I will identify several examples of inflationary potentials within this scenario which can accommodate all cosmic microwave background observables. As a simple example\, I will discuss a model in which inflaton annihilations that take place through a Higgs portal interaction\, leading to encouraging prospects for future direct detection experiments.

DESCRIPTION:The Late Paleozoic (300 Ma) archives the longest glaciation of the Phanerozoic\, and Earth’s only example of icehouse collapse on a vegetated planet. Although glaciation is well documented from the southern paleolatitudes\, the low-latitude tropics have long been considered uniformly warm. We hypothesize that alpine glaciation occurred in relatively low-elevation regions of tropical Pangaea. This hypothesis has been widely criticized as “outrageous” and remains poorly accepted\; if valid\, however\, it implies globally cool temperatures at least episodically during the late Paleozoic Ice Age\, and raises major questions about how this could have occurred.

Strategically placed spin-labels alter relaxation times of NMR active nuclei and yield pertinent structural information. EPR techniques such as Double Electron-Electron Resonance (DEER) and Electron Spin Echo Envelope Modulation (ESEEM) are powerful structural biology tools. The DEER technique can be used to measure distances between 2 spin labels from 20 to 70 Å. However\, the application of DEER spectroscopy to study membrane proteins can be difficult due to short phase memory times (Tm) and weak DEER modulation in more biologically relevant proteoliposomes when compared to water soluble proteins or membrane proteins in detergent micelles. The combination of these factors often leads to broad distance distributions\, poor signal to noise\, and limitations in the determination of longer distances. The short phase memory times are typically due to uneven distributions of spin-labeled protein within the lipid bilayer\, which creates local inhomogeneous pockets of high spin concentrations. Approaches to overcome these limitations and improve the quality of DEER measurements for membrane proteins will be discussed: lipodisq nanoparticles\, bi-functional spin labels (BSL)\, and Q-band pulsed EPR spectroscopy. ESEEM data will be shown to probe the secondary structure of membrane proteins. CW-EPR spectra of spin-labeled membrane proteins will be used to investigate dynamics and the immersion depth in a lipid bilayer.

Practice Sessions is part of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative which funds experimental pedagogies in a bid to change how teaching and learning happen within the bounds of the institution. Over a five-year period\, ten architectural practices will be invited to Taubman College to run a practice session.\n\nLaurel Consuelo Broughton\nLaurel Consuelo Broughton is a designer and educator who explores her interests in narrative\, material culture\, and style within architecture\, design\, and fashion through projects\, publications\, and collaborations at a multiplicity of scales. The object as form and cultural figure features broadly throughout all her work. She has taught at the Graduate School of Architecture\, Planning and Preservation at Columbia University\, the College of Environmental Design at University of California\, Berkeley and the School of Architecture at the University of Southern California. \n\nLaurel is the director of WELCOMEPROJECTS\, a studio of discursive sensibilities focused on the production of real things in the world along with all the incumbent\, critical fictions needed for their survival. WELCOMEPROJECTS are large (buildings\, houses\, interiors)\, medium (installations\, films\, furniture) and small (handbags\, games\, wagons). The studio tells stories through design imbuing each project with curiosity and playful seriousness. Recent work has been exhibited at the 2017 Chicago Architecture Biennial\, Materials and Applications in Silverlake\, A+D Architecture and Design Museum\, Harvard Graduate School of Design\, and galleries in Los Angeles and New York and most recently published in the Los Angeles Times\, Art Papers\, Attention\, Pidgin\, Metropolis\, Offramp\, and Surface.\n\nWELCOMEPROJECTS also designs and produces WELCOMECOMPANIONS\, a project that reinterprets everyday sartorial accessories and objects. The project seeks to inject a sense of play\, suspense\, and narrative into the objects we interact with and depend upon on a daily basis. We suggest the novelty that in our accessories\, function is not wholly dependent on utilitarian form. Launched in 2012\, WELCOMECOMPANIONS has been featured in numerous publications including Vogue.com\, New York Times\, Paper Magazine\, Vogue Italia\, Elle Italia\, Newsweek\, Marie Claire Italia\, Lucky Magazine and Nylon Magazine among others. WELCOMECOMPANIONS are sold in boutiques in Los Angeles\, New York\, Tokyo\, San Francisco\, Sydney\, and Hong Kong.\n\nAndrés Jaque\nAndrés Jaque is the founder of the Office for Political Innovation\, an international architectural practice working in the intersection of design\, research and critical practices. He is the author of awarded projects including ‘Plasencia Clergy Hall of Residence’\, ‘House in Never Never Land’\, ‘TUPPER HOME’\, ‘ESCARAVOX’ or ‘COSMO\, MoMA PS1’. He is the Director of the Advanced Architectural Design Program at Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture\, Planning and Preservation.\n\nIn 2016\, he received the Frederick Kiesler Prize from the City of Vienna\, and he has been awarded with the SILVER LION to the Best Research Project at the 14th Venice Biennale\, and the Dionisio Hernández Gil Award.\n\nAndrés Jaque is Associate Professor at Columbia University\, Phd Architect (ETSAM)\, Alfred Toepfer Stiftung’s Tessenow Stipendiat (Hamburg) and Graham Foundation Grantee.

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies.

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

This installation will be on view live for one day only\, in the U-M Museum of Art’s Stenn Gallery and on UMMA’s front plaza on Saturday\, September 15 from 11 am to 8 pm. Xagoraris is a 2018 Witt Artist in Residence at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. Documentation of Xagoraris’ installation will be included in the upcoming exhibition Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire\, on view at Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division Street) from September 21-November 18\, 2018.\n\nCombining archival material sourced from the Bentley Historical Library at U-M with an interactive “soapbox\,” visitors to this installation are able to experience protest moments of the past and communicate their own messages of dissent in the present. The project aims to recognize the resurgence of student protests in creating social discourse today and draws a connection to the past.\n\nIn his audio and text archival explorations\, Xagoraris illustrates the role of documentation of the 1960s protest movements — New Left\, Free Speech Movement\, Students for a Democratic Society — in sustaining a vital connection between protesters working in disparate cities\, separated by the sprawling geography of our nation.\n\nXagoraris states: “Through documentation of iconic moments of the 1960s protests\, we see photos of People’s Park and Arnold Kaufman and the teach-ins at the University of Michigan. Together\, these events create one complicated but unique series of relatable moments\, influencing each other and depicting a past era but also projecting an image of the future.”\n\nIn addition to Xagoraris’ archival exploration\, The Speaker visitors will find an interactive “soapbox\,” complete with AV equipment designed to project the speaker’s voice outside of the museum and display a green-screen image of the visitor making an address from atop a 1964 Ford Thunderbird parked on the museum plaza — a historical nod to the famous image of Mario Savio during a Free Speech Movement protest in Berkeley.\n\nThe Speaker was created with the collaboration of Tom Bray\, Chrisstina Hamilton\, Katerina Stefanidaki\, and the students of the Identity Politics course taught by professors Marianetta Porter and Irina Aristarkhova at the Stamps School of Art & Design. This interactive installation is presented in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA).\n\nZafos Xagoraris is a Witt Artist in Residence at Stamps School of Art & Design and a Professor at the Athens School of Fine Arts.  His work consists of drawings\, participatory events and public sound installations. He has participated in exhibitions such as documenta 14\, Kassel and Athens\, Manifesta 7\, Rovereto\, the 4th Athens Biennial\, the 1st Bienal Fin del Mundo\, Ushuaia\, the 1st Thessaloniki Biennale and the 27th Sao Paulo Bienal.  UID:53347-13349490@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/53347 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Politics,Social Justice LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180822T101328 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180915T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180915T235900 SUMMARY:Other:Michigan in Washington Application Deadline-September 24\, 2018 DESCRIPTION:Michigan in Washington Fall 2018 Deadline for Winter 2019 and early admission Fall 2019.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520806@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180822T002220 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180915T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180915T150000 SUMMARY:Other:Saturday Sampler Tour | Pompeii and the Bay of Naples DESCRIPTION:In 79 CE\, Mt.

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520807@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180916T120044 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180916T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180916T160000 SUMMARY:Auditions:Fall Tryouts DESCRIPTION:Calling all pommers\, dancers\, and cheerleaders for Michigan Pompon's Fall Tryouts!

Mindfulness is about developing the ability to be fully attentive to all the moments of your life\, reducing the amount of time you spend worrying about the future or fretting about the past. An important aspect of mindfulness is developing a non-judgmental\, accepting\, even curious\, attitude about your moment-to-moment experience. The more you develop this attitude\, the less you will feel overwhelmed by changes and challenges in your life.\n\nKoru is designed to introduce you to the practice of mindfulness and get you well on your way to developing this important skill. Like learning any new skill\, it takes practice to get comfortable with mindfulness. We invite you to devote yourself to the study and practice of mindfulness over the next four weeks\, and we challenge you to stay curious about what evolves for you as you persistently and patiently practice living mindfully. We also have a free mobile app to track meditation practices for this course!\n\nFor any questions\, please contact Hitomi Katsumi at hkat@umich.edu.

No laptops\, no cellular phones\, no Google\, no downloads\, no Skype\, no Tweets\, no Apple\, no Microsoft\, no texting\, no electric cars\, no Uber. A different world. But there were three young men with drive and wit who wanted to keep a special music alive. They believed in preserving the heritage of Western Music and presenting it to a new generation. They believed in entertaining\, and they did so … entertaining themselves as well as the audience! And they believed in creating original Western Music to continue the tradition\, not just seal it in amber as a museum piece. What they did not realize at the time was that they would be doing the same thing 40 years later. Ranger Doug\, Too Slim and the late Windy Bill Collins played that first date on the bitter cold evening of November 11\, 1977\, at Herr Harry’s Frank N’ Stein Rathskeller in Nashville\, and small listening room dates followed. By August of the following year demand was building\, and while Windy Bill left\, Woody Paul joined\, and the true professional beginnings of the band began at the Kentucky State Fair\, where the trio played 10 days for $2500—and bought their own rooms and meals out of that! \n\n A first wave followed\, including appearances on Austin City Limits\; recording contracts with Rounder\, then MCA\, then Columbia\; guest appearances on the Grand Ole Opry leading to membership in 1982\; and a three-year run on The Nashville Network with a TV show called “Tumbleweed Theater\,” which yet in turn led to a seven-year run on public radio with “Riders Radio Theater. People Magazine\, interested in the Riders phenomenon\, ran a story which happy caught the eye of a Hollywood producer.\n\nAnd so the second wave broke\, sending the boys to Hollywood to star in “Riders In The Sky” on CBS for a year on Saturday mornings\, introducing them to yet another generation. More recordings\, endless show dates\, and television appearances followed for a decade before the fine folks at Pixar called and asked the quartet—by this time they had been joined by Joey the Cowpolka King—to sing a tune called “Woody’s Roundup” in the movie “Toy Story 2.” Thus\, the third wave began\, highlighted by a number of projects for Disney\, including two albums\, both of which won GRAMMY Awards! The creation of satellite radio has recently given them a new platform\, as they continue to produce episodes of the award winning “Classic Cowboy Corral” on Sirius/XM.\n\nStill more road dates and recordings (several on their own Riders Radio Records label) and other film and television projects have filled the days and weeks and years\, and since the quartet has slowed up very little\, the numbers begin to add up: an astonishing 7\,200+ appearances\, 35 years on the Grand Ole Opry\, 40 records albums (well\, now CDs\,) and tours of all 50 states and all over the world. Honors accumulated as well. In addition to the two Grammy Awards\, Riders received numerous awards from the Western Music Association\, including the highest: membership in the Western Music Hall of Fame\; numerous Wrangler awards from the Cowboy Hall of Fame and Western Heritage Museum\; awards from the Academy of Western Artists\; enshrinement in the Walkway of Western Stars\, and more. What began as a celebration of classic Western Music and an evening of hilarity has become a career\, and that career has become a legend\, one which\, 40 years on\, shows no signs of stopping or even slowing down much.\n\nRanger Doug\, Too Slim\, Woody Paul and Joey the Cowpolka King … 40 years on\, “The Cowboy Way.\" UID:52603-12876523@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52603 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:The Ark LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180529T115434 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180916T200000 SUMMARY:Performance:3rd Annual Ark Community Sing DESCRIPTION:The Ark is widely known to have one of the best singing audiences in the country. For the third year running\, we celebrate that with a full night devoted to songs that everyone can sing. Michigan’s own Matt Watroba has devoted the last few years of his musical work to spreading community singing throughout the country. Matt will transform the audience into a spontaneous choir. Says Matt: \"Community singing is not performing. It exists so that all willing singers\, at all levels of skill\, can experience the power of song and musical participation. Performing choruses and musical groups often spring out of the community singing experience\, but that is not the purpose—it’s just a welcomed consequence!\" UID:52117-12441234@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52117 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:The Ark LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180905T181524 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180916T200000 SUMMARY:Performance:Briggs Chamber Music Concert DESCRIPTION:Featuring the winners of the 2018 Briggs Chamber Music Competition.

Susan Schilperoort\, retired Minister\, Presbyterian Church USA.\n\nWhile in New York in 1894\, Czech composer Antonín Dvořák composed his cycle of 10 Biblical Songs for voice and piano\, set to various verses from the Book of Psalms in the Old Testament. Each song on this celebratory concert will be sung in the original Czech but preceded by an oral English translation of the particular psalm–recited\, in turns\, by a Catholic priest\, a Jewish rabbi\, a Muslim Imam\, and a Protestant minister\, as well as SMTD Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer Freyja Harris.\n\nThe concert also celebrates ties between Czech composer Antonín Dvořák and the USA\, as he taught for several years at the National Conservatory in New York City\, and was the first to advocate for basing a national musical style on Negro Spirituals and Native American music at a time when American composers were looking to Europe for their model. Lastly\, the concert also celebrates the 100th anniversary of the birth of Czechoslovakia in 1918.

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

In this review we examine why this substantial corpus has failed to answer the often-asked question\, “does cognitive training work?” We first define cognitive training and discuss the general principles underlying training interventions. Next we review historical interventions and discuss how findings from this early work remain highly relevant for current cognitive training research. We highlight a variety of issues preventing real progress in understanding the underlying mechanisms of training\, including the lack of a coherent theoretical framework to guide training research and methodological issues across studies and meta-analyses. Finally\, suggestions for correcting these issues are offered in the hope that we might make greater progress in the next 100 years of cognitive training research.

This textual information has a substantial and significant ability to predict whether borrowers will pay back the loan over and beyond the financial and demographic variables commonly used in models predicting default. The authors use text-mining and machine-learning tools to automatically process and analyze the raw text in over 120\,000 loan requests from Prosper.com\, an online crowdfunding platform. The authors find that loan requests written by defaulting borrowers are more likely to include words related to their family\, mentions of God\, the borrower’s financial and general hardship\, pleading lenders for help\, and short-term focused words. The authors further observe that defaulting loan requests are written in a manner consistent with the writing style of extroverts and liars. Using a counterfactual analysis\, the authors demonstrate that applying their finding can yield a 9.7% additional return on investment.

Fits and Starts DESCRIPTION:---\nThe 2018 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme\, “The Process of Discovery: How Scholars Write Books Today” will discuss how in popular media\, writing is fantastically presented as a process whereby inspiration—a muse— comes to the writer (or fails to). In this fantasy\, writers type fiendishly or crumple up one sheet after another. The reality is at once more complicated and humble than this. Come discover how scholars discover. The colloquium series will feature presentations from CMENAS faculty on their recent book projects and will explore the research process from start to finish. \n---\n\nLecture Abstract:\nProfessor Muehlberger will be discussing the origins of her latest project\, a book now in production about how early Christians thought about death. In this lecture\, she will show that research projects\, especially book-length projects\, grow and develop over time in direct relationship to the opportunities that a writer takes to think about them. She encourages researchers to seek out opportunities to write about a project\, long before they are certain what the topic or approach will be. \n\nSpeaker Bio:\nEllen Muehlberger is Associate Professor of Christianity in late antiquity in the departments of Middle East Studies and History at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, where she teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on ancient history\, contemporary religious traditions\, scholarly methods\, and Coptic and Syriac language. Muehlberger has held fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the American Council of Learned Societies. She edited Practice\, a 2017 collection of newly-translated primary sources about early Christian education\, asceticism\, and reading for the series Cambridge Editions of Early Christian Writings\, and her new book\, Moment of Reckoning: Imagined Death and Its Consequences in Late Ancient Christianity\, will appear with Oxford in Spring 2019.

As Donald Trump argued in the National Republican Convention\, he represents 'the voice of the people'. Elitists\, by contrast\, argue that representatives are bound to decide wisely or correctly rather than conform blindly to popular sentiments.\n\nThis Article argues that the populist and elitist view of representation are both false. It argues that representation indeed requires the representative to endorse the perspective and worldview of the represented. But often endorsing the perspective of the represented requires the representative to act against the actual convictions of the represented. More specifically\, to look at the world 'from the perspective of the represented' the representative’s decisions ought to satisfy the condition of justifiability-to the represented\, namely\, they must rest on reasoning that is accessible to the represented.\n\nThis understanding of representation has broader implications for political theory. It implies that private reason has important role to play in democratic politics: the constituency’s basic convictions should be taken into account in the reasoning of the representatives. Yet the duty of representation\, that requires that the representatives' reasons be accessible to the represented\, is only a pro tanto duty that can be overridden by conflicting normative considerations.

This method\, based on recoil proton detection\, does not provide detailed information on the neutron energy spectra unless one can do a neutron time-of-flight measurement (n-ToF). This is not always possible especially with the new generation of low b.g. underground accelerators designed for nuclear-astrophysics measurements.. Even when n-ToF is feasible\, it often is not very efficient as a long flight path must typically be used together with a bunched and pulse-selected beam . Recent developments in deuterated scintillators\, both liquids and recently crystalline\, can provide efficient detection of neutrons and their energy spectra w/o n-ToF. As will be illustrated\, these new detectors are proving to be especially useful for study of many types of rare nuclear reactions\, for home-land security applications\, for ion-beam dosimetry\, and for measurements of important reactions creating problematic neutrons in the large scintillators used for neutrino oscillation measurements and for dark-matter searches. \n\n UID:55127-13689413@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/55127 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180910T100326 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180917T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180917T163000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Honors Conversion Workshop DESCRIPTION:Considering converting a course to Honors?

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520809@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180914T161901 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180918T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180918T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Hub Hot Chocolate DESCRIPTION:Stop by the LSA Opportunity Hub on Tuesday\, Sept 18 to grab a donut and hot chocolate (or coffee\, or cider) and learn about awesome opportunities!

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

Yet past research has only compared networks where all ties can potentially be severed to those where none can\, confounding the benefits of fully dynamic networks with the presence of dynamic ties within the network. This work accounts for the complexity of real-world networks\, where some ties are more susceptible to change than others\, by considering whether the presence of dynamic ties in networks promotes cooperation even among static ties. Results reveal that\, in networks with both tie types\, the higher rate of cooperation in dynamic ties “spills over” to those relations that are more difficult to alter\, promoting cooperation even among static ties. Thus\, findings demonstrate the critical role that dynamic ties play in promoting cooperation by altering behavioral outcomes even in non-dynamic relations.

The Latin resicum first appeared in notarial archives in Genoa\, and was used to describe a payment awarded to those who invested in dangerous trans-Mediterranean shipping. It comes from the Arabic word al-rizq\, which in the Qur'an referred to the means of subsistence provided by God. In this presentation\, we'll look at the very earliest attested uses of the Latin resicum and think together about how the word entered Latin\, what it meant in these earliest contracts\, and why the word and its cognates was embraced with such enthusiasm in the European languages.\n\nNo shoes allowed: Jewish Tradition between Spain and the Maghreb\nSephardi Jews living in the early modern Maghreb struggled to preserve their old traditions while adjusting to their new Islamic surrounding. This short talk will discuss a specific rabbinical answer from the mid-15th century\, which tried to offer a general principle for Jewish cultural adaptability. More broadly\, it will look at responsa literature as a fundamental source for the study of Mediterranean scholarly networks.

Despite being a mature technology first developed in the late nineteenth century\, radio communication has several ongoing challenges including information security\, increasing bandwidth by tapping the microwave- and mm-wave regimes\, and improving resilience against electromagnetic interference (EMI). An exciting prospect to solving many of these challenges lies in replacing antenna technology with quantum technologies. In this talk\, I will describe the recent development at Rydberg Technologies of a fundamentally new atomic receiver technology for AM and FM radio communication [1\, 2]. The atomic receiver exploits the properties of Rydberg atoms\, highly excited atomic states that are very sensitive to electromagnetic fields\, to collect and demodulate AM and FM radio based on atomic spectroscopy in compact room-temperature vapor cells. Features of the atomic receiver include its small size\, ability detect carrier-waves spanning several octaves\, and a circuit-free detector element. Even in this first demonstration\, the bandwidth and dynamic range are sufficient to receive human vocals.\n\nReferences: \n\n[1] D.A. Anderson\, R.E. Saprio\, G.

We'll provide tutorials for the beginner Wikipedian\, in-person assistance\, reference materials\, and refreshments. Bring your laptop\, power cord and ideas for entries that need updating or creation. People of all backgrounds are invited to participate.\n\nWikimedia’s trouble in representing topics related to gender\, race\, and nationality are well-documented. While the reasons for the gaps are up for debate\, the practical effect of this disparity is not. Content is skewed by the lack of female\, queer\, and PoC participation. This represents an alarming absence in an increasingly important repository of shared knowledge. In an attempt to help address these issues and to broaden the community base of Wikipedians\, and as part of the Latinx Heritage Month Celebrations at the University of Michigan\, the Library is hosting this Latinx Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.\n\nThis event is made possible through collaborations between the University of Michigan Library\, La Casa\, and the Latinx Heritage Month Planning Committee.

University of Michigan's Center for World Performance Studies presents a Performance Talk with Gelsey Bell and Erik Ruin\, on Tuesday\, Sept. 18th at 6pm. Prisoner's Song is the recipient of a Knight Arts Challenge Grant.\n\nPrisoner’s Song is an hour-long performance comprised of ten chapters based on various primary sources\, approached in an array of performance styles. The performance\, by New York-based composer Gelsey Bell and Philadelphia-based (and Detroit-raised) visual artist Erik Ruin\, uses shadow puppets\, projections\, and a variety of musical idioms to portray the prison experience. For instance\, the 19th-century British folk ballad “Adieu To All Judges and Juries” tells the tale of a woman yearning for her lover who has been forcibly exiled\, set to an original arrangement by Bell and illustrated by an intricate paper-cut scroll 10.5 feet in length. In contrast\, an inventory of prisoners’ personal possessions from the Eastern State Penitentiary in the 1930s is performed as an abrupt sequence of voices and percussion\, with the silhouettes of found objects starkly flickering across the screen.\n\nBy drawing on historic ballads\, poetry\, audio interviews with people who have spent time in prison\, and other primary sources\, Prisoner's Song allows audiences to encounter the states of mind and heart that prison engenders. The New York Times calls Prisoner’s Song“uncomfortably powerful … evoking the restrictive and impoverished reality of incarceration even as it pays tribute to the resilience\, ingenuity and poetry that can transcend it.”\n\nPrisoner's Song is presented free through the contributions of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation\, Carrie Morris Arts Production\, the U-M Center for World Performance Studies\, the U-M Prison Creative Arts Project\, Power House Productions\, and through the generosity of many individual donors.\n\nDetroit Performances of Prisoner's Song:\nWednesday\, Sept. 19\, 7pm | Light Box\nThursday\, Sept. 20\, 7pm | Cass Corridor Neighborhood Development Corporation Community Center\nFriday\, Sept. 21\, 8pm | Play House \nSaturday\, Sept. 22\, 8pm | Trumbullplex UID:53896-13476565@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/53896 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Free,Humanities,Interdisciplinary,Music,Social Impact,Social Justice,Storytelling,Visual Arts LOCATION:East Quadrangle - Room 1405 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180909T123021 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180918T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180918T190000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Central Intelligence Agency Info Session DESCRIPTION:The Central Intelligence Agency’s primary mission is to collect\, evaluate\, and disseminate foreign intelligence to assist the President and senior US Government policymakers in making decisions related to national security.\n\nMajors: All Engineering Majors\nDegrees: Bachelor's\, Master's\, and Ph.D.'s\nPositions: Full-time and Internships\nCitizenship Requirement: U.S. Citizenship \nCollecting Resumes?: Yes\n\nWhen: Tue.

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520810@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181004T063038 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180919T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180919T100000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Hulu Info Session DESCRIPTION:Calling all majors!

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz.

Thus rather treating such images as mere “illustrations\,” the talk seeks to show that the appearance of images in theater-related texts was a transformative moment for the history of the book and for the culture of theater alike.\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\nPatricia Sieber is an Associate Professor of Chinese Literature in the Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures where she teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on premodern Chinese drama and fiction\, the history of the book\, and translation studies. She is the author of Theaters of Desire: Authors\, Readers\, and the Reproduction of Early Chinese Song-Drama\, 1300-2000 and is currently the lead editor for How To Read Chinese Drama: A Guided Anthology. She has given talks in the US\, Europe\, Russia\, China\, Hong Kong\, and Taiwan and her work has appeared in English\, Chinese\, and German.

For many students\, such as first-generation college students and other racial-ethnic minority students\, this model typically does not match their understandings of self\, which are more likely to be influenced by the interdependent model of self. The first set of studies examine the sources and consequences of student success associated with a cultural match or mismatch between the students’ model of self and the dominant educational culture. The second set of studies examine how culturally grounded interventions\, by way of reframing the dominant educational culture\, positively influences motivation and performance. Together our research highlights the need to address the role that existing dominant cultural norms and practices play in contributing to educational disparities for diverse students\, and the need to reframe these practices in ways that acknowledge and honor the cultural strengths of these students.

The simplest sub-MeV dark matter models with freeze-in include models with a kinetically-mixed dark photon mediator\, or equivalently models where dark matter is millicharged under the Standard Model U(1). In this talk I will discuss how such models can impact and be constrained by cosmological observables\, including the CMB\, the Lyman-alpha forest\, and the EDGES observation of the cosmological 21 cm global signal.

These companies provide ride-hailing applications that intelligently match riders to drivers\; drivers are private car owners who drive their own vehicles to provide ride-for-hire services for profit. Since their advent in 2009\, ride-sourcing companies have enjoyed huge success\, but also created many controversies. One of them centered on surge pricing\, which algorithmically varies price across different geographic areas and periods. In this talk\, we present an equilibrium modeling framework for analyzing ride-sourcing systems to estimate the impacts of surge pricing on the overall system performance. We will discuss critical ingredients of the modeling framework\, including capturing drivers’ labor supply decision\, and approximating the market frictions due to the matching technology adopted by a ride-sourcing platform to match riders and drivers. We will then configure the framework to develop various models to investigate the pricing of the ride-sourcing markets and its welfare impacts. Potential regulatory policies are subsequently discussed. \n\nBio: Dr. Yafeng Yin is a Professor at Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor.

As melodies and tempos change\, her journey carries her steadily forward. \"I think the most important thing for me was that I ended on a very positive note because I've had so many people tell me that my songs helped them through really hard times in their life\,\" Lindi says. \"That struck a chord for me\, because just like everybody else\, I have had hard times in my life\, and continue to have pockets of difficult moments here and there. If I can provide some sort of solace with my music\, then that gives me every reason to make music.

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520811@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180717T130334 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T094500 SUMMARY:Presentation:IT4U Webinar: Digital Signs Introduction DESCRIPTION:James Lengerich (ITS) covers use cases for digital signs on campus\, basic set-up and maintenance tips.

Irvine DESCRIPTION:Dept. of Biological Engineering\, Dept. of Materials Science & Engineering\, MIT\, Cambridge\, MA\nKoch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research\, Cambridge\, MA\nRagon Institute of MGH\, MIT\, and Harvard\, Cambridge\, MA\nHoward Hughes Medical Institute\, Chevy Chase\, MD\n\nABSTRACT\n\"Engineering immunity via chemistry and materials design: Toward an HIV vaccine and enhanced therapies for cancer\"\n\nOur laboratory focuses on applying principles from engineering and technologies from materials science\, chemistry\, and bioengineering to develop new approaches to study the immune system\, create new diagnostics\, and create next generation vaccines and cancer immunotherapies. Two examples drawn from our work on HIV vaccines and cancer immunotherapy will be described: \n\nThe kinetics of antigen availability following immunization impact follicular helper T cell priming\, germinal center responses\, and ultimate antibody production\, but clinically-relevant methods to control the duration of antigen delivery to lymph nodes in subunit vaccines are lacking. We conjugated antigens derived from the gp140 HIV envelope trimer with a peptide-polymer affinity tag containing repeating phosphoserine (pSer) residues that binds tightly to the most common clinical adjuvant\, aluminum hydroxide (Alhydrogel\, or alum). Site specific modification of HIV antigens with varying numbers of pSer groups allowed the binding strength to alum to be tuned and alum-bound antigens were presented from alum particle surfaces with a defined orientation. pSer-antigen conjugates in alum could be tuned to steadily release antigen from an injection site over multiple weeks in mice. This persistence led to improved lymph node uptake and colocalization of antigen with B cell follicles. Ultimately\, a 20-fold increase in antibody titers relative to the unmodified protein was observed four weeks after primary immunization with both pSer-eOD and pSer-SOSIP conjugates\, and long-lived plasma cells in bone marrow were doubled by immunization with pSer-modified immunogens. Additionally\, conjugation of pSer linkers to the base of SOSIP trimers minimized the formation of base-specific antibodies\, suggesting that antigen arrives in lymph nodes still bound to alum particles.\n\nIn a second example\, a novel strategy for targeting antigens and immunostimulatory agents to lymph nodes for therapeutic cancer vaccines will be described. Lymph node targeting is achieved clinically is sentinel lymph node mapping in cancer patients\, where small-molecule dyes are efficiently delivered to lymph nodes by binding to serum albumin. To mimic this process in vaccine delivery\, we synthesized amphiphiles designed to non-covalently bind vaccine antigens and adjuvants to endogenous albumin. These “albumin-hitchhiking” amphiphiles were efficiently delivered to lymph nodes following injection\, leading to as much as 30-fold amplified cellular immune responses and anti-tumor immunity. When combined with complementary immunotherapy agents\, these lymph node-targeted vaccines are capable of eradicating large established tumors in several mouse models\, providing a blueprint for curative immunotherapies. These examples illustrate the power of bioengineering approaches in shaping the immune response in vivo.

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz.

This presentation will share recent data from Complex N1 at the site of Las Huacas. Las Huacas is a large 105-hectare agricultural center that was occupied since the Early Intermediate Period (AD200-600) into the Colonial Period (AD 1534-1821). Research in 2017 and 2018 focused on excavations within a 12 x 8-meter room and the Late Horizon (AD 1470-1534) occupation of Complex N1. During the Late Horizon\, the Chincha were incorporated into the Inca Empire and were granted a prestigious position. Excavations of the room within Complex N1 recovered a wealth of information about craft production\, mortuary traditions\, and architectural transformations during this dynamic time period. The talk will conclude by introducing future directions for the investigations which will provide important details on how the inhabitants of Las Huacas were affected by Inca expansion.

Frances Trego Montgomery’s series (1902-1930\, reissues in 1960s) was an enormously influential illustrated series contemporary with the Oz books\, as well as with America’s rise to world leadership\, and social unrest over race and immigration. Montgomery’s relentlessly destructive male goat\, the favorite childhood reading of Joe\, Jack\, and Bobby Kennedy\, raises questions about the nation’s defining role\, as well as the influence of childhood reading on children who become presidents.

While several sites in and around the Forum preserved the memory of specific events in the Sabine War\, Dr. Andrews argues that the memory of the Sabine women themselves was rooted in the Subura valley to the east of the Forum. \n\nThis talk presents the first chapter from Dr. Andrews' current monograph on the longue durée history of the Subura and its role as the primary locus for an institutional discourse on feminine virtue throughout its pre-modern history. She shows when\, how\, and why the story of the Sabine Women emerged and\, more importantly\, how it became anchored in the landscape of the Subura valley through a series of cult sites. She argues that the critical period was the Middle Republic\, when the area experienced extensive residential development and became a venue for aristocratic competition. The narrative of the Sabine women was promulgated by victors in the Italian wars of the third century BCE and grafted onto pre-existing sacred sites in the valley\, where many of these victors likely lived. This mythmaking in the Middle Republican period is but the first instance of the manipulation of local memory over the long history of the Subura.

The wind tunnel tests of the D8 \"double-bubble\" aircraft in back-to-back BLI and non-BLI configurations constitute a proof-of-concept for the use of BLI in transport aircraft. These were carried out as part of a NASA N+3 project led by MIT in collaboration with Aurora Flight Sciences and Pratt & Whitney.\n\nThis presentation will cover the wind tunnel experiments\, with emphasis on the quantification of the power-saving benefit of BLI. It will introduce the power balance method for analyzing highly-integrated aircraft configurations\, and how it was applied to the D8 tests to determine the aerodynamic benefit of BLI. The different sources of benefits with BLI will be related to the dissipation sources in the flowfield\, and an analysis framework for aircraft with BLI will be presented.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nAlejandra Uranga is a Gabilan Assistant Professor in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at USC. Before joining USC in 2016\, she was a Research Engineer at MIT in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. While at MIT\, she was the project technology lead and co-PI for design\, development\, simulation\, and wind tunnel testing of the D8 double-bubble advanced transport aircraft concept under the NASA N+3 program.\n\nShe holds a PhD degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics from MIT\, and a Master's of Applied Sciences in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Victoria\, BC\, Canada. She completed her undergraduate education at the Université Paris 7 Denis Diderot\, Paris\, France\, with an associate's degree in Mathematics\, and has a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from the Florida Institute of Technology. Her research interests are in aerodynamics\, novel aircraft design\, and integrated propulsion systems\, for which she favors a combined computational and experimental approach.

This benefits needy consumers\, while hurting provider revenues. I combine confidential data on the universe of billing records from a large state utility in India with data on elections and nighttime lights. I demonstrate new evidence on the extent of\, and the mechanisms behind\, political patronage in electricity provision. Using a close-election Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD)\, I find higher satellite-measured electricity consumption\, but systematically lower bill collections in constituencies aligned with the ruling party. I show evidence of under-reporting of consumption and also of data manipulation in billing records. Exploiting the rich variation and detail in the data\, I estimate net welfare to be unambiguously lower as a result of these actions. The producer losses of about $57 million are more than double the gains to consumers. To measure welfare changes\, I develop a novel method that estimates the price elasticity of electricity demand in the presence of data manipulation\, combining policy changes as instrumental variables with machine learning for model selection. My estimates are more robust than prior work which relies on aggregated data and on data that is likely to have been manipulated. Consistent with a model of patronage politics\, I find that politicians target voters with greater influence and those who benefit more from subsidies.

Much of our general understanding of how such insular communities assemble over time comes from top-down extrapolations of process from species distribution data and molecular phylogenetic data. Here I will argue that to connect pattern with process\, geographically explicit individual-based bottom-up approaches are needed that are broadly representative of the community itself. We have been working toward this\, developing community-level sampling protocols for arthropod taxa that integrate DNA sequencing techniques to simultaneously facilitate taxonomic assignment and test hypotheses about the drivers of speciation. I will present results that reveal the subtle but pervasive impacts of island topography and climate that act in concert to drive speciation across entire arthropod communities. I will also present data from recent efforts within our research group to overcome the logistical constraints of geographic and taxonomic scale for comparative molecular analysis of invertebrate communities.

Here\, Flatley focuses on Langston Hughes\, and Hughes’s engagement with the political and poetic problem of representing a black collectivity—first of all to itself. Flatley suggests that Hughes’s poetry speaks not only to fundamental questions in African American letters concerning the political import of black writing\, but also to basic questions in the Marxist tradition about the role of representation and aesthetic experience in the creation of a revolutionary “class-for-itself.” And he makes a case for the continuing relevance of Hughes’s poetry to the present moment\, when the representation and affirmation of black lives
 remains a vital political and poetic task.

However\, widespread use of XANES is limited by the need for synchrotron light sources with tunable x-ray energy. Recent developments in extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light sources using the laser-based technique of high-harmonic generation have enabled core-level spectroscopy to be performed on femtosecond to attosecond timescales. We have extended the scope of tabletop XUV spectroscopy and demonstrated that M2\,3-edge XANES\, corresponding to 3p→3d transitions\, can reliably measure the electronic structure of first-row transition metal coordination complexes with femtosecond time resolution. We use this ability to track the excited-state relaxation pathways of photocatalysts and spin crossover complexes. In semiconductors such as CH3NH3PbI3\, distinct signals are observed for photoinduced electrons and holes\, allowing the dynamics of each carrier to be tracked independently. This work establishes high-harmonic spectroscopy as a useful tool for mainstream research in inorganic\, organometallic\, and materials chemistry. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nJosh Vura-Weis (University of Illinois) UID:52759-13021395@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52759 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180808T093354 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Grievance and Protest\" Why Does the First Amendment Protect Speech Critical of the Government?

They promise improved decision-making\, but contain the threat of entrenching race\, gender or class biases. Little is known about how their use affects real-world outcomes. We evaluate the impacts of incorporating algorithmic predictions of future offending (risk assessments) in high stakes decisions: criminal sentencing. Using multiple identification strategies – differences-in-differences\, discontinuities-in-time\, and discontinuities-in-risk-score – we seek to answer three questions: whether risk assessment affected judges’ decisionmaking (lowering sentences for low-risk defendants relative to higher-risk defendants)\, whether it affected net outcomes such as incarceration rates\, sentence lengths\, and recidivism\, and whether it affected racial disparities in incarceration. Our setting is Virginia\, a state which adopted risk assessment with specific policy goals: lowering carceral sentences for nonviolent offenders and increasing sentences for sex offenders. Overall we find that a) judges do change sentencing decisions in response to the risk assessment\, b) this change did not lead to any discernible increase in efficiency\, defined as lowering incarceration without affecting public safety or vice versa\, c) the specific policy goals were not met (net incarceration rates for nonviolent offenders remained the same\, and net incarceration rates for sex offenders decreased) and d) there is suggestive evidence that risk assessment can have an adverse effect on racial disparities in sentencing (among the subset of judicial circuits that responded most to the risk assessment\, incarceration rates for black defendants rose by 8 percentage points relative to white defendants).\n\nco-authored with Jennifer Doleac UID:56218-13867067@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/56218 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Law,seminar LOCATION:South Hall - 1020 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181005T123027 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T180000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Internship Lab DESCRIPTION:If you are in Handshake\, Click \"Join event\" to RSVP* \nNot inHandshake?

From schools and hospitals to cultural hubs and town centers\, Myerscough explores the theme of “belonging” in her work\, using it to transform public spaces by creating welcoming\, engaging experiences for everyone. Myerscough’s Temple of Agape\, built for the 2014 Festival of Love on London’s South Bank\, used public space to create an open\, interactive symbol of devotion to love in all of its forms. Rooted in creating a sense of joy and belonging for all who encounter a space\, Myerscough creates specific local responses to each distinct audience that will see and experience her work\, using it to create community and build identity. Her visual vocabulary is inclusive by nature and its effortless energy resonates both visually and emotionally with audiences well beyond geographical and cultural boundaries. Myerscough’s contribution to educational environments was recognized in 2015\, when her work with Allford Hall Monaghan Morris on Burntwood School won the Stirling Prize for Architecture.

In portraying the effects of turbulent politics on individual lives\, literature has a unique opportunity to ponder and celebrate our humanity. It can counteract the manipulative language of propaganda by drawing from the rich resources of a language that is able to sustain us through moments of political upheaval. Please use the \"To Register\" link below.\n\nBiography:\nBugan was born in 1970 in Romania and has since lived in the US\, Ireland\, England\, and France. She is the author of three collections of poems: Crossing the Carpathians (Oxford Poets/Carcanet)\, The House of Straw (Shearsman)\, and Releasing the Porcelain Birds (Shearsman)\; as well as the memoir Burying the Typewriter and the critical study Séamus Heaney and East European Poetry in Translation: Poetics of Exile. Bugan was educated at the University of Michigan and Oxford University\, UK\, where she obtained a doctorate in English literature. Her essays\, reviews\, and poems appear in publications such as PEN\, the TLS\, Modern Poetry in Translation\, PN Review\, Harvard Review\, and the BBC Magazine. In 2017 Carmen was made a George Orwell Prize Fellow. She teaches at the Gotham Writers Workshop in NYC and lives in Long Island\, NY.\n\nFrom the Pan MacMillan Blog: \n\"Being an immigrant writer in American today\" ~ \"At 2 a.m. on 10 March 1983\, Carmen Bugan's father left the family home\, alone. That afternoon\, Carmen returned from school to find secret police in her living room. Her father's protest against the regime had changed her life forever. This is her story.\"\n\n\"One of the most telling insights I've read about life under communism...warm and humane.\" ~Observer UID:53214-13289327@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/53214 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Books,Honors,immigration,Literature,Poetry,Rackham,Residential College,Storytelling,Women's Studies LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Amphitheater CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181005T123024 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180920T200000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:PhD Pathways: Munger Graduate Housing Resource Fair DESCRIPTION:The University Career Center will discuss resources for careerpreparation with residents of Munger Graduate Housing.

Scottish folk master Archie Fisher is well known all over the British Isles as host of his own BBC radio show\, but his appearances stateside are to be cherished. Archie's most recent collection of songs \"Windward Away\,\" on which he worked for more than ten years. It's a gem—a haunting collection of introspective ballads\, evoking the wild and rough beauty of the Scottish Border country. One of a pair of brothers who spearheaded a tremendous renaissance in Canadian songwriting in the 1970s and 1980s\, Garnet Rogers tells detailed stories of people from all walks of life and their small\, everyday victories. He can shift from seriousness to razor-sharp wit in a heartbeat\, and no two of his shows are the same.
