BISHOP: Will the room please come to order? 4 CHAIRMAN SCHMIDTLEIN: Good morning. On behalf 5 of the U.S. International Trade Commission I welcome you to 6 this hearing in the remedy phase of Investigation No. 7 TA-201-76 involving large residential washers. As you are 8 aware, on October 5, 2017 the Commission determined that 9 large residential washers are being imported into the United 10 States in such increased quantities as to be a substantial 11 cause of serious injury to the Domestic Industry. 12 Having reached an affirmative determination with 13 respect to injury the Commission is now engaged in the 14 remedy phase of the investigation. Pursuant to section 202E 15 the Commission is required to recommend the action that 16 would address the serious injury of the Domestic Industry 17 and be most effective in facilitating the efforts of the 18 Domestic Industry to make a positive adjustment to import 19 competition. We are here today to hear from the parties and 20 others regarding the potential remedy recommendations. 21 The Commission is potentially scheduled to vote 22 on remedy on November 21, 2017 following the vote the 23 Commission will submit a report to the President that 24 contains the Commission's determination and views regarding 25 serious injury as well as one or more remedy Ace-Federal Reporters, Inc 202-347-3700 12 1 recommendations. That report is due to be delivered to the 2 President by December 4, 2017. 3 It is the President who will ultimately decide 4 whether to impose the remedy and what that remedy will be. 5 Schedule setting forth the presentation of this hearing, 6 notices of investigation and transcript order forms are 7 available at the public distribution table. All prepared 8 testimony should be given to the Secretary. Please do not 9 place testimony directly on the public distribution table. 10 All witnesses must be sworn in by the Secretary 11 before presenting testimony. I understand that the parties 12 are aware of the time allocations. Any questions regarding 13 the time allocations should be directed to the Secretary. 14 Speakers are reminded not to refer in their remarks or 15 answers to questions of business proprietary information. 16 Please speak clearly into the microphone and state your name 17 for the record and for the benefit of the court reporter.

    186 Weingart „Fame Is the Name of the Game“ das gleiche Begehren nach dem Zugriff auf den Celebrity-Körper antworten. Darüber hinaus zeigt sich aus dieser Perspektive, dass mit der medientechno- logisch bedingten Zitierfähigkeit von (hier: Körper-)Bildern grundsätzlich ein Moment von Enteignung einhergeht und in dieser Hinsicht Aneignungsbezie- hungen auch dann nicht per se als ‚unschuldig‘ gelten können, wenn sie sich einer Faszination verdanken. Es gibt also gute Gründe dafür, dass die Spiel- regeln nicht nur des game namens fame, sondern von medialen Aneignungs- praktiken generell nicht allein durch technologische Machbarkeit diktiert werden, sondern Gegenstand gesellschaftlicher Aushandlungen sind, bei de- nen man es (wie gegenwärtig etwa in der Debatte über das weite Feld der cultural appropriation) jeweils mit sehr spezifischen Gemengelagen zu tun hat. Beatriz Colomina The 24/7 Bed: Privacy and Publicity in the Age of Social Media How do we relate today when countless new technologies seem to structure every interaction? And what role does architecture play? What is the archi- tecture of ubiquitous connectivity? Private and public have become completely blurred. We can no longer think of distinct spaces for work, play, domesticity, and rest. We are living in a 24/7 culture. Networked electronic technologies have removed any limit to what can be done in bed. Millions of dispersed beds are taking over from concen- trated office buildings. The boudoir is defeating the tower. This text explores the role of the bed as the epicenter of labor, postlabor, and love in the age of social media.

Six co-researchers who had attended one or both of the festivals and experienced a life-changing mystical or transcendent EHE therein were recruited and interviewed. The analysis of emergent themes was conducted using transpersonal, phenomenological, heuristic, and hermeneutic research methods. The identified themes unfolded within three parts: Entering Mystical Kingdoms, Illuminating the Exceptional Human Experience, and The Essential Gifts of the Exceptional Human Experience.

  • Ecozoic Reader.Vol. 2, No. 1. Fall 2001.Text
    The Ecozoic Reader STORY AND SHARED DREAM EXPERIENCE OF AN ECOLOGICAL AGE “The historical mission of our time is to reinvent the human—at the species level, with critical reflection, within the community of life systems, in a time-developmental context, by means of story and shared dream experience.” —Thomas Berry A publication of Fall 2001 the Center for Ecozoic Studies Volume 2, Number 1 The Great Work We are about the Great Work. We all have our particular work—some of us are teachers, some of us are healers, some of us in various professions, some of us are farming. We have a variety of occupations. But beside the particular work we do and the particular lives we lead, we have a Great Work that everyone is involved in and no one is exempt from. That is the work of moving on from a terminal Cenozoic1 to an emerging Ecozoic Era2 in the story of the planet Earth… which is the Great Work. - Thomas Berry 1 Our current geo-biological era, the Cenozoic Era, began 67,000,000 years ago following the mass extinction of the dinosaurs and many other species. Now Earth is undergoing a mass extinction of plant and animal species of similar magnitude, this time caused by the impact of human activity on the community of life systems. The Cenozoic Era is ending. 2 That another geo-biological era will follow the Cenozoic Era is not in question. What is in question is whether humans and other forms of life as we know them will continue.
