  • List of Doctors and Hospitals in Baden-Württemberg
    List of Doctors and Hospitals in Baden-Württemberg The Frankfurt Consular District includes Hessen, Rheinland-Pfalz, Baden-Württemberg Nordrhein-Westfalen and the Saarland in the Federal Republic of Germany. (July 2014) The following is only a partial list of English-speaking medical professionals in the Frankfurt Consular District. The choice of a physician is a personal matter and the American Consulate is not in a position to make specific recommendations. The American Consulate General assumes no responsibility for the professional ability or integrity of the persons whose names appear on this list. The names are arranged alphabetically by city (according to field or specialty), and the order in which they appear has no significance. Important! American Citizens living or traveling abroad should be sure they have adequate medical insurance that will cover expenses incurred abroad. Medicare and Medicaid are only valid in the United States. Some private American medical insurance companies will pay for expenses abroad, but most require that the patient pay the bill first, then file for reimbursement. It is common practice in Germany for health care providers to expect payment up front before providing services to individuals not covered by the German health care system. The United States Consulate General does not have funding to help cover medical expenses of American citizens in Germany.

Sacred Spaces as Sound Spaces in the Early Modern Period International and interdisciplinary conference Conference venues: German Historical Institute in Rome (12 December, 13 December morning) Biblioteca Vallicelliana (11 December afternoon) Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana (13 December afternoon) S. Maria in Vallicella (11 December evening) Apostolic Palace (14 December morning) Concept and scientific organisation: Prof. Dr. Klaus Pietschmann and Dr. Tobias C. Weißmann (Research Project “CANTORIA – Music and Sacred Architecture”, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz) | German Historical Institute in Rome, Department of Music History Beginning in 15th century Italy, the polychoral musical performance practice and new compositio- nal developments in church music required the modification of venerable churches and the inte- gration of music spaces in new sacred buildings. This multifaceted change correlated with the rite and mass piety and enduringly affected the experience of liturgy and music. The most distinctive impact of this progress is epitomised by the installation of singer balconies and organ galleries on which top-class music ensembles and organists often performed and which served as stages for musical excellence. The permanent display of music advanced to become a core segment of sacred architecture while the potential of these spaces to promote identification becomes evident in numerous graffiti, as the singer pulpit in the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican exemplifies. The conference explores the complex interdependencies between architecture, acoustics, musi- cal performance practice and rite in the interdisciplinary discourse between musicology, art and architecture history.

  • Calibration of Artificial Athlete Berlin/Stuttgart Summary Of
    Calibration of Artificial Athlete Berlin/Stuttgart Summary of Calibration Series Performed in 2000 1. Introduction and Rational The Artificial Athletes Berlin and Stuttgart were developed by the FMPA Stuttgart (Otto-Graf- Institut) of the University of Stuttgart around 1970. The tests, which are specified in the German standards DIN 18035-6 "Sports Grounds; Synthetic Surfaced Areas" and DIN 18032-2 "Sports Halls; Sports Surfaces – Requirements, Testing, Maintenance",. and have been adopted by various national and international bodies (FIH, IAAF, ASTM, ITF, CEN, FIFA, UEFA). Over the years, especially the past 10 years, modifications to these DIN standards have taken place, which were at times inconsistent, resulting in major questions and concerns regarding the proper design of the test apparatus, the test procedure, the evaluation of measurements and the accuracy of the test results. The IAAF Accredited Labs of the ISSS felt that the resolution of these uncertainties was crucial and, based on the lack of response by the DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung = German Institute of Standardization) to professional advice, took the initiative themselves to clarify the problems involved. As a first step, the ISSS called for papers analysing the structure of the Artificial Athletes and providing solutions for the pending problems. The submitted papers were received from Mark Harrison (GB), Dr. Konrad Binder (A), Dr. John Dunlop (AU) and Hans J. Kolitzus (D). The papers were published on ISSS's website www.isss.de. In a meeting held in Le Mans (F) in September 1999, the papers and problems were discussed in depth and a unanimous resolution was passed covering all open problems.

The progress that renewable energy technologies have made on the learning curve clearly helped make an am- bitious agreement possible. There is increasing awareness among political and business leaders that shifting away from non-renewable sources of energy makes sense – not just from a societal point of view, but as a way to improve future competitiveness. The Paris agreement, however, can only be the first step. It needs to be translated into action and, particularly, be reflected in energy investment strategies, which are the focus of this year’s St. Gallen Forum for Management of Renewable Energies: RE-Invest 2016. How is the new global climate framework influencing the energy investment landscape? What role will corporate, institutional and retail investors play in building up a clean energy system? How can the latest insights from research in energy, management, psychology and poli- tical science help to shape successful strategies? What is the outlook for key renewable energy technology sectors such as solar and wind? And what is the role of countries like Switzerland and Germany in bringing about a global transition to renewable energy? These questions will be addressed through a mix of keynote speeches by international thought leaders, high-profile panel discussions and interactive workshops which provide participants with new insights and high-level networking opportunities.

    Ensemble „Paul Abraham“ and its members The ensemble was founded in 2016 in the idea of an active encounter and approach of the cultures of Central and Eastern Europe. What is more suitable for this purpose than the universal and common language of music? It has been historically developed in these by Danube connecting regions and is actual presented jointly by young talented musicians from the music colleges of southern German city Stuttgart and of Serbian city Novi Sad. The ensemble met for the first time to practice at the end of February 2017 in Novi Sad and Apatin. Even the rehearsals were marked by high musical harmony and professionalism. This was then perfected in the following performances, Apatin in the Culture Center on March 3rd, 2017 (see picture below, with guest voice Izabella Guzsvany - Mezzo-soprano). Paul Abraham was born in a small and German-speaking town of Apatin. With his artistic talent, he became involved in the world of operettas to conquer them through his originality in the twenties and thirties of the last century and to connect European regions with music. This performance of Paul Abrahams is also to be the guiding principle of the ensemble.
