designed for use within certain voltage limits1, commonly known as the Low Voltage Directive (LVD), hereafter the Directive, is one of the core Union legislation regulating products of the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Industries, alongside the Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU2 (RED) and the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 2014/30/EU3 (EMCD). PURPOSE OF THE EVALUATION The first Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC4) was adopted in 1973. It was later amended5 and then codified and replaced by a second Low Voltage Directive (2006/95/EC6) which in turn was repealed and replaced by the current Low Voltage Directive 2014/53/EU. The purpose of this evaluation is to analyse the performance of the Low Voltage Directive towards its objectives of facilitating the free movement of electrical equipment across the Union and protecting consumers' and users' health and safety. The evaluation assesses the extent to which the Directive is fit for purpose, hence continues to deliver effectively, efficiently and at minimum cost the intended benefits for consumers and business. The evaluation is supported by an external study (hereafter evaluation study)7, commissioned by DG GROW and conducted from June 2018 to June 2019. It should be noted that any data 1 Directive 2014/35/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits (OJ L 96, 29.3.2014, p. 357). 2 Directive 2014/53/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of radio equipment and repealing Directive 1999/5/EC (OJ L 153, 22.5.2014, p. 62). 3 Directive 2014/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility (OJ L 96, 29.3.2014, p. 79). 4 Council Directive 73/23/EEC of 19 February 1973 on the harmonisation of the laws of Member States relating to electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits (Low-voltage Directive), available at: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=LEGISSUM%3Al21015b. 5 Council Directive 93/68/EEC of 22 July 1993 amending Directives 87/404/EEC (simple pressure vessels), 88/378/EEC (safety of toys), 89/106/EEC (construction products), 89/336/EEC (electromagnetic compatibility), 89/392/EEC (machinery), 89/686/EEC (personal protective equipment), 90/384/EEC (non-automatic weighing instruments), 90/385/EEC (active implantable medicinal devices), 90/396/EEC (appliances

May 24–September 10; May 27–September 20 German Neo-Expressionist painter, sculptor, writer, teacher, and jazz pianist Markus Lüpertz is the subject of these two simultaneous exhibitions. The 75-year-old flamboyant, tattoo-emblazoned artist’s intense painterly output appears in the Hirshhorn show, curated by Evelyn Hankins, which concentrates on Lüpertz’s formative years, from 1962 to 1975, when he reflected the turmoil of postwar Germany with a series of semi-figurative military paintings.

  • ABSTRACT Sunshower a Symphonic Poem for Wind Ensemble Jordan R
    ABSTRACT Sunshower A Symphonic Poem for Wind Ensemble Jordan R. Tucker, M.M. Mentor: Scott McAllister, D.M.A. Composed in the programmatic spirit of standard wind ensemble works such as H. Owen Reed’s La Fiesta Mexicana, Winds of Nagual by Michael Colgrass, and Alfred Reed’s Armenian Dances, Sunshower is an exploration in sonoristic composition and a tribute to the classic wind ensemble. Utilizing a large ensemble, this four-movement symphonic poem was begun in June of 2016 and was completed in February of 2017. With the intention of creating the aural and sensational atmosphere of a sun-shower, my ultimate goal was to share a work that is both programmatic in its connection to the listeners, and depicts a unique, modern, and human experience. By establishing an aural connection between the wind ensemble and this fascinating weather pattern, the music is able to unify audience members in an acoustic environment, allow them to embrace new sensations of expression, and demonstrate the textural possibilities within the world of wind ensemble composition. Sunshower by Jordan R. Tucker, B.M. A Thesis Approved by the School of Music Gary C. Mortenson, D.M.A., Dean Laurel E. Zeiss, Ph.D., Graduate Program Director Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Baylor University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Music Approved by the Thesis Committee Scott McAllister, D.M.A., Chairperson Jeffrey Powers, M.M.

  • American Dialects Extended Version of the Article Published in Let's Go
    American Dialects1 Extended version of the article published in Let’s Go USA 2004 Bert Vaux, Harvard University July 2003 Many people believe that that regional variation in the United States is disappearing, thanks to the insidiously pervasive influence of television and mainstream American culture. There is hope for those of us who relish linguistic and cultural diversity, though: recent research by Penn’s William Labov and by Scott Golder and myself at Harvard has found that regional variation is alive and well, and along some dimensions is even increasing between the major urban centers. Consider for instance the preferred cover term for sweetened carbonated beverages. As can be seen in the map below, Southerners generally refer to them as coke, regardless of whether or not the beverages in question are actually made by the Coca Cola company; West and East coasters (including coastal Florida, which consists largely of transplanted New Yorkers) and individuals in Hawaii and the St. Louis, Milwaukee, and Green Bay spheres of influence predominantly employ soda, and the remainder of the country prefers pop. National television ads and shows generally employ soda, presumably thanks to the concentration of media outlets in soda areas New York and California, but this has had no effect on the robust regional patterns. (The three primary terms do appear to be undermining traditional local expressions such as tonic (Boston) and cocola (the South).) Another deeply entrenched regionally-conditioned food product is the long sandwich made with cold cuts, whose unmarked form in the U.S. is submarine sandwich or just sub.

It is a sad reflection of the times that one of the most contentious pertained to the Guggenheim’s withdrawal of three works involving animals from the Art and China after 1989: Theater of the World exhibition following threats of violence against staff. CIMAM was invited to sign a petition protesting the withdrawal of the work by the National Coalition Against Censorship but acknowledging the very difficult situation the gallery faced, we decided to invite the Director and the Curator of the exhibition to address the Board during our meeting in Singapore and to put the subject onto the agenda for our general assembly. The issues were thoughtfully addressed in the general assembly, as well as the situation regarding the inability of the Getty Foundation to support a colleague from Iran for our travel grants program because of the sanctions which prohibit support of any 4 external program which involves delegates from the government of Iran.
