The 38th PVSC marks the beginning of the Conference’s second half century, and is expected to host about a thousand presentations. Its ten topical technical focus areas range across fundamentals, characterization, new concepts, all of the major commercial and next generation technologies, space and terrestrial applications, and policy and finance developments that can drive the velocity of market penetration as much as technological and manufacturing advances. The highest quality papers will be eligible for inclusion in the IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics, a newly commissioned, peer-reviewed, archival publication reporting original and significant research results that advance the field of photovoltaics. This year’s technical program includes a special focus in the terrestrial PV systems area on recent developments in smart grid and module technologies that may play an important role in the future of system design for distributed generation. The conference exhibits will be in the Austin Convention Center, a modern state-of-the-art venue, providing an ideal opportunity to access the world’s leading researchers in photovoltaics. Austin is the Texas state capital, renowned for its high-tech entrepreneurial business environment, dynamic night-life and music scene, outstanding restaurants, scenic lakes and rivers, and as a gateway to the Central Texas Hill Country. 38th Ieee PHOTOVOLTAIC SPeCIALISTS COnFeRenCe June 3-8, 2012 • AuSTIn, TeXAS 3 We invite you to Austin, Texas where the 2012 conference will be held June 3-8. Join thousands of the world’s leading scientists and engineers, policy- makers and financiers, exhibitors and students at this time of massive transformation of the PV industry. After decades of sustained doubling of global production every two to three years, inexorable price reduction is driving the cost of solar PV generated electricity to grid parity in ever-expanding regions of the world. Environmental, climate change, and energy security concerns must be addressed with greater availability of clean energy to support continued global economic growth. Clearly, photovoltaics can be part of the solution, CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE and public awareness is growing that photovoltaics can shape energy use patterns for generations. Join us in Austin and participate in the creation of this future. Dr. Billy J. Stanbery Chief Science Officer, HelioVolt Corporation Conference General Chairperson June 3-8, 2012 • AuSTIn, TeXAS 4 GENERAL INFORMATION GENERAL INFORMATION DATES The 38th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference begins Sunday, June 3rd, with a day of tutorials.

    George Washington has departed p. 58 Importance of CUPP p. 59 In Ukraine, the ideological battle has no timetable. It seems, however, that the clock is working against the youth and NGOs in their efforts to forestall the imposition of a managed democracy. If the ruling clan succeeds in imposing a managed democracy, it will set back for decades the development in Ukraine of a normal civil society governed by the rule of law. And if Ukraine becomes like Russia or if it merges into Russia, Europe and the West will not have a reliable or stable partner in the region for much of the 21st century. It is not beyond a possibility that eventually a war will have to be fought in Europe in order to return to a stable and just society in the eastern half of the continent.

  • 312-11 Harper Years 2014
    The Harper Years Lecture 11: POL 312Y Canadian Foreign Policy Copyright: Professor John Kirton, University of Toronto All rights reserved November 25, 2014 JFK mk Introduction On January 23, 2006, Canadians elected Stephen Harper’s Conservatives with a minority government of 124 seats, compared to 103 for Paul Martin’s Liberals, 51 for the separatist Bloc Québécois, and 29 for the New Democratic Party (NDP). The 46-year-old Torontonian-turned-Albertan was formally sworn in as Canada’s 22nd prime minister on February 6. A debate immediately arose about what Canadian foreign policy would now be (Kirton 2006, 2007). After Harper won a second, stronger minority government of 143 seats on October 14, 2008 and then a majority government of 166 seats on May 8, 2011, the debate continued, among six major competing schools of thought. The Debate The first school pointed, in authentic peripheral dependent (PD) fashion, to “restrained Americanism.” It predicted that Harper would seek a cooperative relationship with the U.S., limited only by Harper’s fragile minority position and absence of ideological partners in Parliament. Janice Stein forecast “greater affinity with U.S. positions internationally,” including a pro-American tilt on relations with the Middle East and the United Nations (McCarthy 2006). Joseph Jockel, Christopher Sands, David Biette, and Dwight Mason thought the tone and ease of the Canada-U.S. relationship would improve, as Harper made good on his defence promises. But they also felt that the Shamrock Summit–like closeness of Brian Mulroney and Ronald Reagan would be avoided, given Harper’s minority position at home (Koring 2006).

  • G7 Leaders Summit 2020: Background Paper on Themes of G7 Leaders Summits (2012-2019)
    G7 Leaders Summit 2020: Background Paper on Themes of G7 Leaders Summits (2012-2019) G7 Commitments at a Glance Gender equality and women’s empowerment are at the heart of the universal 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals, specifically in relation to women’s economic empowerment (WEE). This WEE agenda has evolved through further engagement with governments and other key stakeholders, such as during the 2017 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, the Secretary-General’s High-Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment, the Group of 20 (G20) and the Group of 7 (G7). The G7 has articulated its WEE position in the G7 Common Principles on Women’s Entrepreneurship (2015 Elmau); G7 Guiding Principles for Building the Capacity of Women and Girls (Ise-Shima 2016); the G7 Roadmap for a Gender-Responsive Economic Environment (Taormina 2017); the Charlevoix G7 Summit Communique (Charlevoix 2018) and Paris Declaration on Gender Equality (Biarritz 2019). The G7 recognizes that women are key drivers of innovation, growth and jobs, and that the private sector plays a vital role in creating an environment in which women can more meaningfully participate in the economy. The group has set concrete targets, such as reducing the gender gap in labour force participation rates by 25% by 2025, and to increase spending on Technical Education and Vocational Training (TVET) by a third by 2030. In the last four years, the G7 countries have committed to: invest in women’s skills development and TVET; facilitate women's labour force participation, career advancement, and work life balance; stimulate women’s entrepreneurship and the growth and sustainability of women-owned businesses; and accelerate the adoption and implementation of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs).

  • Pressepolitik in Den US- Kriegen Des 20
    Die andere Front: Pressepolitik in den US- Kriegen des 20. Jahrhunderts Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Philosophischen Fakultät der Universität zu Köln vorgelegt von Andreas Elter Saarbrücker Str. 5 51107 Köln Köln, April 2003 ii Danksagung Angeregt wurde diese Dissertation durch den verstorbenen Leiter der Anglo- Amerikanischen Abteilung der Universität zu Köln, Prof. Jürgen Heideking. Unmittelbar nach Abschluss meines Studiums im Jahre 1996 kamen Prof. Heideking und ich in mehreren Gesprächen gemeinsam zu der Auffassung, dass bei der Untersuchung US- amerikanischer Kriege des 20. Jahrhunderts häufig ein ganz entscheidender Aspekt fehlte: Nämlich eine übergreifende Analyse der Pressepolitik, die vor allem die Bedeutung der Medienlenkung im Krieg herausarbeitet. Auf dieser Grundlage entstand überhaupt erst mein Entschluss, eine entsprechende Dissertation vorzulegen. Daher soll hier an erster Stelle Prof. Heideking gedankt werden. Durch einen beruflich bedingten Umzug nach Mainz und den Tod Prof. Heidekings verzögerte sich der Start des Projekts um drei Jahre. Eine Initialzündung für die Wiederaufnahme und Vervollständigung der Recherchen stellte dann 1999 ein Aufenthalt als "Visiting Media Fellow" der RIAS-Kommission am "Institute for Public Policy" der Duke University in North Carolina dar. Die Leiterin des Instituts, Ellen Mickiewicz, gewährte mir unter anderem auf Grund ihrer Erfahrungen einer Beratertätigkeit für den ehemaligen US-Präsidenten Jimmy Carter tiefe Einblicke ins Innenleben pressepolitischer Zusammenhänge und Kontakte zu amerikanischen Journalisten. Ihr und den anderen Lehrkräften der Duke University, insbesondere Prof. David Paletz, gebührt ebenfalls Dank. In den USA haben mich darüber hinaus Martin Bohley (CNN Atlanta), Susan Tifft (New York Times), Rick Atkinson (Washington Post), Albert Dagliesh (Presseabteilung des Pentagon) sowie die freundlichen Damen und Herren im CBS und NBC-Archiv sowie an der Library of Congress und den National Archives bei meinen Recherchen unterstützt.
