I'll be with Austrian author Josef Haslinger at the Austrian Cultural Forum in New York on Tuesday, 24 November (at 18:30), with John Cullen reading from his (unpublished) translation of Haslinger's , describing his experiences during the tsunami of 2004.

Kraatz Marine has terminated the agreement it has signed with Max Planck Institute (MPI) to build and erect the largest telescope in Namibia called HESS. Kraatz Marine is part of the Ohlthaver and List Group of Companies, saying MPI has

Wintec will deliver a University of Waikato pre-degree programme in 2010 as the two tertiary organisations collaborate to adjust their overall education programme provision to ensure the needs of the region are met in the capped funding environment.

St Peter's School principal Steve Robb spent a day at Waikato University recently - but in the corridors of power rather than the lecture halls.

Bede was the "teacher of the whole Middle Ages" - and one Stanford scholar has devoted a lifetime to his achievements.

Will advances in neuroscience make the justice system more accurate and unbiased? Or could brain-based testing wrongly condemn some and trample the civil liberties of others? The new field of neurolaw is cross-examining for answers.

Demonstrators in a Wheeler Hall window read a list of demands to supporters below. (Steve McConnell/NewsCenter photo) UC Berkeley police arrested 41 demonstrators in Wheeler Hall Thursday evening, bringing the daylong occupation of the classroom building to a peaceful conclusion.

Since the passage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, UC Berkeley has received nearly $65 million in research funds from the federal government, primarily from the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation.

The UC Regents on Thursday approved the appointment of UC Berkeley chemist Paul Alivisatos as director of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. He succeeds Steve Chu, now U.S. Secretary of Energy.

MCB's Erol Kepkep's job is to maintain efficiency and order in two Bio 1A laboratories -- from managing enrollment to tracking errant crocodiles.

The occurrence of a bounce in FRW cosmology requires modifications of generalrelativity. An example of such a modification is the recently proposedHorava-Lifshitz theory of gravity, which includes a ``dark radiation'' termwith a negative coefficient in the analog of the Friedmann

The pure Skyrme-Faddeev-Niemi model (i.e., without quadratic kinetic term)with a potential is considered on the spacetime S^3 x R. For one-vacuumpotentials two types of exact Hopf solitons are obtained. Depending on thevalue of the Hopf index, we find compact or

We study the fluid-like dynamics of eigenvalues of the Wilson operator in thecontext of the order-disorder (Durhuus-Olesen) transition in large $N_c$Yang-Mills theory. We link the universal behavior at the closure of the gapfound by Narayanan and Neuberger to the phenomenon

It is well-known that chiral symmetry breaking ($\chi$SB) in QCD with$N_{f}=2$ light quark flavours can be described by orthogonal groups as $O(4)\to O(3)$, due to local isomorphisms. Here we discuss the question how specificthis property is. We consider generalised forms

In the present work, we search static charged black hole solutions toHo\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity with or without projectability condition. Weconsider the most general form of action which electromagnetic field coupleswith Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity. With the projectability condition, we finddS-Reissner-Nordstrom black hole solution
