  • In the Footsteps of Ashkenazi Jewry: a Study Tour of Jewish Germany 28 MAY – 8 JUNE, 2019
    In the footsteps of Ashkenazi Jewry: A study tour of Jewish Germany 28 MAY – 8 JUNE, 2019 Following two highly successful tours of Jewish Germany in 2013 and 2016, the Jewish Museum of Australia is pleased to announce that this tour will be repeated in 2019 from 28 May–8 June. Focusing on the history of the Jews of Germany, the tour will be led by Paul Forgasz, who has lectured in Jewish history at Monash University’s Australian Centre for Jewish Civilisation. Paul is also a regular contributor to the Jewish Museum’s adult education program. What is special about this tour? As with any tour, you will visit various towns, cities, and sites of both Jewish and general historical interest. Local guides will be on hand to explain the features of these sites. However, under Paul’s expert guidance, you will actively engage and interact with these places through the reading and analysis of texts, group discussions and simulations. You will thus step back into history, as you explore the amazing story of the Jews of Germany. You will re-live significant historical moments and experience the gamut of the Jewish historical experience in Germany: the earliest presence of Jews in Roman times, the highs and lows of the medieval Jewish experience, the birth of the Haskala – the Jewish Enlightenment, the encounter with the modern world during the 19th and early 20th centuries which transformed the face of Judaism and Jewish life, the dark years of the Nazi period, and the more recent revival of Jewish life in Germany.

  • 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.

  • 60 Incoherent Renovation in Berlin: Is There a Way
    New Design Ideas Vol.3, No.1, 2019, pp.60-78 INCOHERENT RENOVATION IN BERLIN: IS THERE A WAY FORWARD? Malcolm Millais Independent researcher, Porto, Portugal Abstract. This paper briefly describes the fates of four of Berlin‟s most iconic cultural buildings. These are the Berlin Palace, the Neues Museum, the Berlin Dom (Cathedral) and the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church. Using a variety of historical styles, all these buildings were built, or finished, in the nineteenth century, and all suffered serious damage due to aerial bombing in the Second World War. As all were repairable, the obvious choice might seem to reinstate them to their original condition: but this did not happen to any of them. This paper examines the incoherence of the various renovations, and briefly addresses the problem of formulating a coherent approach to renovation, particularly with reference to the 1964 Venice Charter. Keywords: Berlin, renovation, Venice Charter, iconic buildings, war damage, monstrous carbuncle, wartime bombing, cultural destruction. Corresponding Author: Malcolm Millais, Porto, Portugal, e-mail: [email protected] Received: 4 December 2018; Accepted: 24 January 2019; Published: 28 June 2019. 1. Introduction What can be said about all four of the buildings examined here is that: All, except in some aspects the Neues Museum, were extremely solidly built, so, given routine maintenance, could have be expected to have lasted for probably hundreds of years. All were severely damaged by aerial bombing during the Second World War. All were repairable. All suffered further destruction due to various political ideologies such as Communism, Modernism and Nationalism. All have been reinstated in a variety of ways, none of which are universally accepted.
