I have a request: if you attend an event that has NOT been posted on the excavation list for the week, would you please go back and post it (even though it is after the deadline and you have already posted another BY the deadline?) so that I can denote that the event was reviewed by you. Please go back and look at the pages for the expired excavations. You will find that I have noted by each posting who reviewed the event. This is interesting information. If you see someone else has reviewed an event you went to, you might look at their blog to see what they thought about it. Or any event you were curious about but could not attend.
Reminder: you can look at all blogs, all reviews in their entirety. The excerpts are posted only to pique' interest in the hope the reader will go read the entire entry. Just go to the author list on the right and click whichever name you want. You might be interested to see how others are handling their responses, or even documentation.
Which reminds me: don't forget you need visual documentation to accompany your blog.
Oh, btw… I would like to remind you…….
The success or failure of this class is completely up to you. If you are bored by the lectures, then re-consider the lectures you are excavating or choosing. If you excavate what you are interested in, that will make it easy for you to choose. I would expect that at some time you would attend one of your own excavations, otherwise that would indicate that you are simply grabbing the first qualifying event that you can find, with no thought about your interest. As you can imagine, this could lead to a boring semester. If this class does not interest you, give you pause to consider things that are relevant to you and your life, then perhaps it is the events you are excavating, or the lectures you choose to attend.
You get what you pay for.
See you around campus.

Description:
Through the combination of vérité footage, personal stories and interviews, Seoul Train is a riveting exposé into the life and death of North Koreans who attempt escape from their homeland and China via a secretive “underground railroad.” In this film we meet the activists on the front line, learn of the risks they take for their refugees and for themselves, and see firsthand the toll their work takes on them. We also hear from the Chinese Government, who articulates its country’s claims as to why the North Koreans are not refugees; from the UNHCR as to why it has failed to save even one North Korean refugee; from Sen. Sam Brownback, who has publicly challenged both the PRC and UNHCR; and from other experts (academics and NGOs) on the crisis at hand.

he philosophy of mathematics has long been focused on determining the methods that are appropriate for justifying claims of mathematical knowledge, and the metaphysical considerations that render them so. But, as of late, many philosopher's have called attention to the fact that a much broader range of normative judgments arise in ordinary mathematical practice; for example, questions can be interesting, theorems important, proofs explanatory, concepts powerful, and so on. The associated values are often loosely classified as aspects of "mathematical understanding". Meanwhile, In a branch of computer science known as "formal verification," the practice of "interactive theorem proving" has given rise to software tools and systems designed to support the development of complex formal axiomatic proofs. Such efforts require one to develop models of mathematical language and inference that are more robust than the simple foundational models of the last century. In this talk, I will explore some of the insights that emerge from this work, and some of the ways that these insights can inform, and be informed by, philosophical theories of mathematical understanding.

Dr. Gable will present her talk on "Family Style Meal Service: Still Best Practice in Child Care Settings" which will address the concerns of obesity rates during childhood, particularly in child care and early education settings. To date, family style meal service (FSMS) has been the gold standard for nutrition socialization. Her presentation will review current research and examine if FSMS is still the best practice for children in group care settings. Sara Gable, PhD, is an Associate Professor and State Extension Specialist in Nutrition and Exercise Physiology at the University of Missouri,Columbia. From 1996 to the present she has been on the faculty at the University of Missouri where she has been on the faculty in Human and Community Development and Family Studies and more recently in Nutrition and Exercise Physiology. Her research program addresses the child care workforce and the etiology and outcomes of childhood obesity. Currently she is pursuing the integration of her child care and child health research programs. Lunch will be provided. The Family Resiliency Center's Food for Thought Lecture Series challenges attendees to think outside of their typical research by learning about techniques, methods, or problems that they would not typically encounter in their daily research activities. Presentations last approximately 20 minutes, and presenters may include no more than 9 slides in their talk. Particular attention is paid to challenges working on interdisciplinary teams.

Understanding and predicting the properties of quantum matter remains one of the great challenges in physics. I will describe some recent progress in formulating a computational framework for correlated electron systems. This is a non-perturbative, field-theoretic approach, which can be used to simulate either a fully materials-specific Hamiltonian or a Hubbard-like model --- or indeed any electronic Hamiltonian in between as the former is ``down-folded'' to the latter. As an illustration of materials-specific applications, calculations of the bandgap in ZnO and the binding of Cobalt adatoms on graphene will be discussed. Results will then be presented on simulations to determine the nature of antiferromagnetic correlations in the ground state of the repulsive two-dimensional Hubbard model when doped. This computational framework takes the form of many loosely coupled mean-field calculations. It thus has an ideal algorithmic structure and exceptional scalability for parallel computing. With petascale supercomputers, a variety of problems in correlated electron matter can now be tackled.

To date, the Large Hadron Collider has produced more than ten million pairs of top quarks across a broad range of energies. This enormous harvest of the heaviest known elementary particle allows us to study the physics of top quark production with unprecedented detail, hopefully yielding surprises along the way. Towards this end, I will introduce simple observables that are sensitive to spin interference effects in top quark production, based on the azimuthal angle patterns of the tops' decay products. Besides opening a clean and unique window on the nontrivial correlations of top spins within the Standard Model, such observables can be used to categorize or even discover various types of new physics. I will argue that azimuthal correlations are potentially observable with very high significance in multiple channels using the current LHC data set, and can inform us about models that explain an anomaly in top production at the Tevatron.

The role of molecular spectroscopy in the broader interests of physics has evolved over the years. It was traditionally the study of molecular structure and its underlying quantum mechanics. Later, it led to various applications including the first 'atomic clock' that was actually based on molecular vibrations and to the observation of star light redshifts that reveal the expansion of the universe. More recent advances in techniques for quantum manipulation bring new directions to molecular physics where molecules serve as test systems to study a variety of phenomena. In this talk, I will discuss two examples. First, we make use of the extreme electric fields found within a molecular bond in an experiment that aims to improve our knowledge of the electron's electric dipole moment (eEDM), which will be sensitive to physics beyond the standard model. In the second example, quantum control of molecular internal and external states enables the study of ultra-cold chemistry, and may yield undiscovered quantum phases of matter.

I will explain how to use the motions of stars to learn about the nature of particles. More specifically, I will translate the stellar kinematics that I observe in the nearest, smallest and `darkest' galaxies into a test of the standard hypothesis that dark matter consists of `cold' and `collisionless' (i.e., weakly interacting) particles. This model escapes falsification only if baryon-driven processes (e.g., energetic feedback from supernova explosions) alter the internal structure of galactic dark matter halos systematically with respect to predictions derived from cosmological N-body simulations. I will identify future work -- both observational and theoretical -- that I expect will tell definitively whether such reconciliation is energetically feasible or whether the dark matter model requires additional complexity.
