PRESIDENT'S REPORT JJ reported: 1. Occupy HK With regard to the Occupy Movement story, the Club had done its best to promote its name and stay engaged with the story. (SH arrived 10.05 am) The Regina Ip and Emily Lau discussion had sold out quickly and was a.very successful event in terms of exposure. There had also been a discussion on showcasing some of the best photography from the protests, which would be discussed later in the meeting. JJ said it was important that the Club should be present and proactive, being open to any ideas and suggestions. A close eye was being kept on issues surrounding press freedom. JJ described a worrying situation from the previous night, where a photojournalist member had been detained and later arrested many hours late r for climbing onto a car during a protest. (lVC arrived 10.07 am) JJ said that on the same night, other journalists in Mongkok were penned in and threatened with batons if they crossed the road. In light of those events the Club had put out a statement, which had been picked up by the SCMP and other publications. 2 Funeral of VG Kulkarni (SC arrived 10.08 am) JJ said the funeral would take place on Monday and although it would be a sad event, he was pleased to hear there would be a good attendance. He regretted that he could not be there, as he would be out of town. However, there would be a wake the following week and he would attend along with VG Kulkarni's other friends and colleagues. JJ suggested that the workroom be re-named in VG Kulkami's honour, as he used it frequently and it was currently unnamed. It was resolved to name the workroom to call it "The VG Kulkarni Workroom" Proposed by FM Seconded by TJ Unanimously Accepted It was agreed that the change of name would be announced at the wake. a -t Cliff Buddle JJ reported that Mr Buddle had been badly beaten at an event by a Mainland student. Flowers had been sent to him and a handsome thank-you note had been received from him, thanking everyone for their concern. KE expressed concern that a statement had been put out too quickly regarding the arrested photogiapher (mentioned earlier), as standing on a car was criminal damage and the Police were ohliged to respond. He urged caution with such situations, which JJ noted. It was resolved to approve the President's Report Proposed by TH Seconded by PH Unanimously Accepted 4.

The year-to-day surpfus is now 5374,439 resulting in a favourable variance of $916,988 compare with budget. The overall result is very positive, given that the first six months are normally the toughest trading conditions. Higher usage of the Club has been the main contributor. Whilst no price rises are cu 'ently envisaged, food prices are rising and other costs will also increase in coming months so vigilance must be exercised. Food and Beverage Cost Food costs for the month were $727 ,052 or 35.I% against sales, which were 1.7olo more than the budget. Beverage costs for the month were $430,646 or 38.5yo, which were lYo above budget. After adding in wines take-away and wine home delivery, the total cost will be $451,306 or 39.09Yo.

Catering Expenses and Administration Expenses Total catering expenses were over budget by $56,515; more maintenance cost due to material & maintenance cost for kitchen griller & freezer. The additional costs were mainly associated with extra part-time staff resultìng from heavy use of banqueting facilities. Total administration expenses were over budget by $12,070; more entertainment cost due to paying 30% deposit for the HRPA's contract fee. Current month revenue - October 2014 F&B revenue budget for the month of October 2014 is $3,081,540. F&B revenue up to 13 October 2014 (Monday) was $1,389,012, which was over last year by 5226,926 and ahead of budget by 596,754. Some disruption from Occupy Central had been seen with lower use of Main Dining Room, but overall use of Club and promotion of events has seen solid revenue generated. 3. Any other business General Manager mentions that the transportation expense in October will be slightly increased due to "Occupy Central" requiring late duty staff to take taxis home. 4. The meeting rvas adjourned Discussions at BOG meeting TH reported that the Club had got to the end of the first half of the financialyear with a surplus of HK$374,000, which was more than HK$900,000 in favour. A loss had been budgeted in the f,rrst six months, so it was a positive outlook. The committee would continue to be vigilant, but no action needed to be takenon prices. Food costs were rising though. Otherwise, everything else on both administrative and catering expenses was within the budget. JJ reported that the Club hadn't suffered too much due to the Occupy Movement. TH said that at first the Main Dining Room (MDR) had suffered, but overall the Club was fine with bar takings g going well.

  • Neuronal Dynamics of Grapheme-Color Synesthesia A
    Neuronal Dynamics of Grapheme-Color Synesthesia A Thesis Presented to The Interdivisional Committee for Biology and Psychology Reed College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts Christian Joseph Graulty May 2015 Approved for the Committee (Biology & Psychology) Enriqueta Canseco-Gonzalez Preface This is an ad hoc Biology-Psychology thesis, and consequently the introduction incorporates concepts from both disciplines. It also provides a considerable amount of information on the phenomenon of synesthesia in general. For the reader who would like to focus specifically on the experimental section of this document, I include a “Background Summary” section that should allow anyone to understand the study without needing to read the full introduction. Rather, if you start at section 1.4, findings from previous studies and the overall aim of this research should be fairly straightforward. I do not have synesthesia myself, but I have always been interested in it. Sensory systems are the only portals through which our conscious selves can gain information about the external world. But more and more, neuroscience research shows that our senses are unreliable narrators, merely secondary sources providing us with pre- processed results as opposed to completely raw data. This is a very good thing. It makes our sensory systems more efficient for survival- fast processing is what saves you from being run over or eaten every day. But the minor cost of this efficient processing is that we are doomed to a life of visual illusions and existential crises in which we wonder whether we’re all in The Matrix, or everything is just a dream.

  • Piloting Through Chaos Is on Negotia- Tion, but the Analysis and Wisdom Go Well Beyond That Now Available in the Literature [On Negotiation]
    “The emphasis throughout Piloting Through Chaos is on negotia- tion, but the analysis and wisdom go well beyond that now available in the literature [on negotiation]. This volume is a breakthrough in the use of words, thought processes and managing human behav- ior responsibly.” Oliver Oldman Learned Hand Professor (Emeritus) Harvard Law School “IPOs in China and Japan, inventions in clean energy, decod- ing Japanese negotiation strategies, incubators for creativity and innovation, the role of beauty in discovery and bringing ideas to market—Julian Gresser is a Renaissance man with an amazing array of achievements and gifts. He has written a truly original and helpful book with his own hard-won understandings about how innovation can be incubated. Read it, it will enlarge your mind and you will discover your own capacity to do such things. It will grow with you and interact with your discoveries as you make them, tak- ing them to a higher level.” John Tarrant Zen master, author, Bring Me the Rhinoceros and other works “Mark Twain said, ‘You can’t depend on your eyes if your imag- ination is out of focus.’ In Piloting Through Chaos, Julian Gresser helps us to dream a better future and carefully outlines the steps needed to get there. Brilliantly written and meticulously researched, Gresser warns that we cannot achieve justice and abundance as individuals but only through collaboration, innovation, and fear- less exploration of our own depths. And always, he reminds us, with kindness. Gresser is an international attorney, but also a 21st Century Renaissance Man, with a lifetime of experience in business, music, martial arts, invention, and meditation.

Dr. Hawa Abdi, "the Mother Teresa of Somalia" and Nobel Peace Prize nominee, is the founder of a massive camp for internally displaced people located a few miles from war-torn Mogadishu, Somalia. Since 1991, when the Somali government collapsed, famine struck, and aid groups fled, she has dedicated herself to providing help for people whose lives have been shattered by violence and poverty. She turned her 1300 acres of farmland into a camp that has numbered up to 90,000 displaced people, ignoring the clan lines that have often served to divide the country. She inspired her daughters, Deqo and Amina, to become doctors. Together, they have saved tens of thousands of lives in her hospital, while providing an education to hundreds of displaced children.

  • Change from Within
    Change from within In a world that is bombarded with negative news every day, the future seems to look bleak. However there are some people that don't accept the status quo.. They ask why? or why not? They go against the stream, have overcome adversity and because of that developed a sense of ownership, motivation, creativity and passion to make the world a better place and strength to be forces of good rather than victims of circumstance. A Kanthari is a small but extremely spicy chili with numerous medicinal values. A kanthari is also a symbol for those who have the guts to challenge harmful traditions, who have fire in their belly and a lot of innovative ideas to make a positive difference. For us a kanthari is the name of a new type of leader – a leader who is positioned at the margins of society. kanthari in Trivandrum, Kerala, South of India offers a seven month leadership program for visionaries who are keen to drive ethical social change. All hands-on practical workshops are conducted by a group of international experts we call catalysts. kanthari fosters participants from all over the world. Some have university degrees while others have little to no formal education. Some are blind or physically disabled; others have no disabilities at all. The main subjects that are addressed by kantharis are disability, protection of environment, human rights, peace building and alternative learning. We promote a “change from within” approach. People in a community know what the problems are, they speak the local language, understand its culture and history and solutions are at hand.

  • Tibet Chic: Myth, Marketing, Spirituality and Politics in Musical
    “TIBET CHIC”: MYTH, MARKETING, SPIRITUALITY AND POLITICS IN MUSICAL REPRESENTATIONS OF TIBET IN THE UNITED STATES by Darinda J. Congdon BM, Baylor, 1997 MA, University of Pittsburgh, 2002 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2007 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Darinda Congdon It was defended on April 18, 2007 and approved by Dr. Nicole Constable Dr. Evelyn S. Rawski Dr. Deane L. Root Dr. Andrew N. Weintraub Dr. Bell Yung Dissertation Director ii Copyright © by Darinda Congdon 2007 iii “TIBET CHIC”: MYTH, MARKETING, SPIRITUALITY AND POLITICS IN MUSICAL REPRESENTATIONS OF TIBET IN THE UNITED STATES Darinda Congdon, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2007 This dissertation demonstrates that Tibetan music in the United States is directly related to multiple Western representations of Tibet in the United States, perpetuated from the 1800s to the present, and that these representations are actively utilized to market Tibetan music. These representations have also impacted the types of sounds most often used to musically represent Tibet in the United States in unexpected ways. This study begins with the question, “What is Tibetan music in the United States?” It then examines Tibetan music in the United States from a historical, political, spiritual and economic perspective to answer that question. As part of this investigation, historical sources, marketing sources, New Age religion, the New York Times, and over one hundred recordings are examined. This work also applies marketing theory to demonstrate that “Tibet” has become a term in American culture that acts as a brand and is used to sell music and other products.
