There are few randomized controlled trials to guide physicians in treating patients with fluid overload in the ICU, and no guidelines exist. We aimed to elucidate how ICU physicians from Nordic countries define, assess, and treat fluid overload in the ICU. We developed an online questionnaire with 18 questions. The questions were pre-tested and revised by specialists in intensive care medicine. Through a network of national coordinators. The survey was distributed to a wide range of Nordic ICU physicians. The distribution started on January 5th, 2022 and ended on May 6th, 2022. Self-reported practices among Nordic ICU physicians when assessing, diagnosing, and treating fluid overload reveals variability in the practice. A 5% increase in body weight was considered a minimum to support the diagnosis of fluid overload. Clinical examination findings were preferred for assessing, diagnosing and treating fluid overload, and diuretics were the preferred treatment modality.

It contained multiple choice and Likert scale questions. Questions were demographical, attitudinal, and practice based. Participation was voluntary, and anonymous, and no personal data was collected. The survey data were collected and managed using Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) a secure, web-based software platform designed to support data capture for research studies (19) The study population consisted of Nordic ICU physicians from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Iceland. We used purposive sampling by distributing through five national investigators, who invited local ICUs to distribute the survey link to their physicians through email invites. To manage the response rate the investigators filled out a distribution form for every department (Supplementary material 3) Reminder emails were sent either one or two times Broadly speaking how much do you agree with the following statements about the issue of fluid overload (positive fluid balance with edema) in ICU patients When assessing fluid status, physicians preferred clinical parameters. The physicians often or very often used clinical examinations such as the daily and cumulative fluid balance (96%, 779/809), edema (96%, 777/809), urinary output (89%, 710/794), body weight (88%, 716/809), and the patient’s oxygen requirements (57%, 464/809). Physicians used other modalities such as ultrasound and radiological appearances more sparsely (Figure 3) I use the following when assessing the fluid status of a critically ill patient: FB *Results from invasive cardiac monitoring and measures of fluid responsiveness from these devices I agree that the following features support the diagnosis of fluid overload in a critically ill patient number of respondents to the question.*Presence of potential complications of fluid overload difficulty weaning from invasive ventilation How much do you agree to each of the following indications for commencing de-resuscitation in the critically ill patient without shock number of respondents to the question; AKI The ICU physicians preferred fluid removal targeted to daily net fluid balance (92%, 682/740 would use these modalities often/very often) followed by clinical examination findings (67%, 496/739) and baseline body weight (56%, 411/740). Other modalities such as ultrasound findings or physiological parameters to target fluid removal were rarely used (Figure 6) How often do you use the following approaches in the management of fluid overload in your daily practice *Fluid removal titrated to physiological parameters (cardiac output measurements How often do you use the following strategies to avoid or deal with fluid overload in the critically ill Of the occasions on which you administer loop diuretics to achieve a negative fluid balance how often do you use the following agents (either as adjuncts or alternatives) A majority agreed/strongly agreed that they would review their fluid removal plan in all the listed clinical situations in Figure 9 Do you agree that the following situations would trigger a review of the planned rate of fluid removal in a critically ill patient Answer the following questions while you assume you are attending a stable critically ill patient with fluid overload who is treated with loop diuretics to achieve a negative fluid balance Choose the option that best describe your likely response (A) Mild hypotension (MAP 55–65 mmHg) (N = 718) (B) mild hypernatremia (145–150 mmol/L) (N = 718) (C) severe hypernatremia (>150 mmol/L) (N = 713) (D) max dose of noradrenaline that is acceptable while continuing using diuretics for fluid removal (N = 677) renal replacement therapy; *Monitor closely and lung ultrasound were used to a certain extent by the Nordic physicians when assessing fluid status The survey from NZ/A/UK demonstrated different preferences concerning these modalities Nordic physicians used ultrasound more frequently especially lung ultrasound (27% of Nordic physicians vs 8% of physicians from NZ/A/UK used it often/very often) UK/A/NZ physicians used radiological findings more frequently (69% of NZ/A/UK physicians vs Multiple retrospective studies have shown that an increase above both 5 and 10% weight-based cumulative fluid balance is significantly correlated with increased mortality in AKI (27) and surgical patients (7). These findings were most predominant in the groups with fluid overload above 10% (7), but a systematic review found that the risk of mortality increased by 19% per liter increase in positive fluid balance (8) Many Nordic physicians diagnose fluid overload as an increase above 10% in body weight and a large part of the physicians would also diagnose fluid overload as an increase above 5% This underlines how Nordic physicians are aware of the possible risks associated with fluid accumulation Australia and the UK 76% of the respondents found a 10% increase in body weight supported the diagnosis of fluid overload Given that the respondents understood the question as it was intended would demonstrate how Nordic physicians are aware of current recommendations from KDIGO If the question was understood as AKI without fluid overload the physicians would surprisingly disagree with the current recommendations Most studies in the field of fluid therapy focus on resuscitation fluids but also maintenance fluids and fluid creep (fluid volume administered unintentionally from enteral, oral, and intravenous medication) are substantial sources of fluid accumulation (29). In one study, maintenance fluids and fluid creep were responsible for 25% and 33% of all administered fluids, respectively while resuscitation fluids were only responsible for 7% (29) This has not been tested in a prospective randomized trial to our knowledge The questions in our survey have previously been applied and pretested for validity and have been conducted on similar study populations and remodified the survey before distribution Another strength is the number of respondents we received The size of the participant population indicates a proportionate representation of the ICU physicians in Nordic countries and of their general views The response rate in the current study was 28% The distribution of the survey varied in the participating countries which is visible when comparing the percentage of physicians from each Nordic country Our sampling strategy was relatively broad which could have resulted in distribution to physicians who might not work in the ICU and therefore were less likely to open the survey link There can also be physicians who are employed in more than one ICU and potentially have received the survey invitation more than once This demonstrates that the response rate might be skewed and would be more precise if the distribution had been more selective Self-reported practices among Nordic ICU physicians when assessing The raw

Please enter the e-mail address you used to register to reset your password The quest goes on to try to pin down the detailed inner structure of the proton. The problem is that, the harder physicists look, the more structure they find. In the late 1960s, when experimentalists using electron beams at SLAC, Stanford, discovered that the proton contained tiny scattering centres, a new type of physics opened up: deep inelastic scattering (DIS). Ever since, physicists have tried to peer deeper and deeper into the depths of the proton. The work of the HERA electron­proton collider at DESY, Hamburg, was to probe this inner proton structure in more detail than had ever been done before. This is one of the great success stories of HERA. However, to capitalize on this new window on the proton also calls for intense study and coordinated effort. After the advent of HERA, about seven years ago, a series of specialized workshops began. Scattering involving the constituent “partons” hidden inside the proton is the natural scenario for quantum chromodynamics (QCD), which is the field theory of the constituent quarks and gluons. DIS99 (the seventh DIS conference) was hosted by DESY Zeuthen, south of Berlin, earlier this year. New results from the HERA collider experiments were summarized by Bernd Löhr (DESY) for ZEUS and by Tancredi Carli (Munich) for H1. Cecilia Gerber (Fermilab) reported on the Tevatron experiments and Roland Windmolders (Mons) reviewed spin physics results. Recent developments in QCD were summarized by Willy van Neerven (Leiden). Two days of parallel sessions focused on structure functions, diffraction, final states and spin physics. The working group on structure functions was conducted by Ursula Bassler (Paris), Eric Laenen (NIKHEF), Arnulf Quadt (CERN) and Heidi Schellman (Northwestern). HERA probes low x, which is the momentum fraction carried by the struck quark, down to about 10-6. New precision is accompanied by impressive theoretical work on the gluon dynamics in this domain and on the transition between the deep inelastic and the photoproduction regimes. Standard perturbative QCD field theory has no apparent difficulties in accounting for the behaviour of the proton structure down to surprisingly low values of x and of momentum transfers (Q2). Efforts are under way to extend QCD calculations, covering the “next to next to leading order”. This is a challenging task, which will substantially reduce the theoretical uncertainties. The emerging role of HERA as a machine for precision tests of QCD is comparable to that of CERN’s LEP electron­positron collider for testing the electroweak theory. With increasing HERA collision rates, the data at large Q2 approach the region where proton structure is probed by the W and Z weak bosons and the gluon and quark distributions become measurable even at large x, where uncertainties are currently still sizable. The puzzling excess of high Q2 events at large x, which were first observed by H1 and ZEUS in 1997, was reported to be reduced after more data had been accumulated. The many new results from various sectors led Heidi Schellman to conclude that the “rest of the world keeps up with DESY”. The working group on diffractive interactions was organized by Mike Albrow (Fermilab), Riccardo Brugnera (Padova), Markus Diehl (DESY) and Douglas Jansen (Heidelberg). One early observation at HERA was that about 10% of electron­proton events have little to show in the forward, proton direction. The electron interacts with something accompanying the proton rather than the proton itself. This stimulated the revival of interest in “diffractive” scattering. Dijet production also reflects the quark­gluon structure of the photon, and LEP and HERA data were presented on the gluon content of the photon. Some photon distribution parametrizations require revision owing to new measurements of the virtual photon structure. Isolated leptons with high transverse energy, observed by H1, so far have no conclusive interpretation. Theoretical and simulation work focused on the low x region and the description of gluon emission. The parallel session on spin physics was organized by Michael Düren (Erlangen) and Werner Vogelsang (Stony Brook). Among new experimental results was the first indication of a positive gluon polarization, obtained from unlike charged pairs of hadrons produced at large momentum transfer, and the unexpected observation of a spin asymmetry in rho-meson production by the new HERMES experiment at HERA. The proceedings of DIS99 are dedicated to the memory of DESY director Bjoern Wiik, who died in February. His outstanding personality and scientific achievements were recalled by Aharon Levy (Tel Aviv), chairman of the workshop’s international advisory committee, and Brandenburg minister of culture and research Steffen Reiche, who underlined the importance of realizing Bjoern Wiik’s vision, which led to the creation of HERA and has shaped, so decisively, the plans for TESLA.

A recent addition to Mellon's thematic universe is a mobility innovation fund, led by Robert Zeuthen a portfolio manager with 30 years of industry experience.  "Mobility innovation really represents a convergence of several different sectors "And we look for companies within these key verticals that can deliver innovation that helps people and assets move more efficiently through an increasingly digital society." Since launching in 2018, the fund is already crushing its Morningstar category sector and benchmark returning 41.40% to investors this year while the category sector A dynamic and rich opportunity set to invest in He sees mobility trends and opportunities as strong and improving which will continue to drive outperformance An active management style in such a fast-moving space is an advantage The team can capitalize on the volatility of a disruptive market by being able to quickly make changes when company fundamentals change or when private companies make gains in the market.  Thematic ETFs and passive investment products face more challenges because they often deal with a narrow investment criteria Through Mellon's "world class analyst" team Zeuthen finds innovative investment opportunities He does not focus on the industry or geography He maps companies in their investment universe and portfolio to the industry acronym C.A.S.E is a framework that helps Zeuthen prioritise the best growth opportunities for investment investment in innovation can come at a cost and Zeuthen takes an approach that would make Warren Buffett squirm and more about growth potential," Zeuthen said the team is looking for innovation and growth potential over valuation To consider an investment for the portfolio "With the idea that the more levered a company is to the theme over time the better its growth potential will be because it will capture the intrinsic tailwinds that are resident in the mobility industry," Zeuthen said Zeuthen highlighted some of the big innovation trends he sees going forward: which fits the C component of the C.A.S.E analysis Zeuthen is expecting 5G demand to continue to accelerate with a wide variety of opportunities to capitalize on "The mobility industry will deploy new 5G services that will provide enhanced location messaging and collaboration capabilities," Zeuthen said these new services will enable consumers and goods to travel more efficiently and safely through the global economy." One of the most surprising stocks within the fund's holdings is Slack and it's not necessarily easy to see the link between movement and communication tools Zeuthen highlights that many transportation companies will leverage new types of communication services and data analytics to provide services "We've discovered that many automotive companies are increasingly using what are called Slack channels to be able to connect to advance their R&D programmes and also increasingly to work with their suppliers and manage their supply chains," Zeuthen said "Given the difficulty that COVID has created Slack is a very good example of the company that is helping drive mobility innovation digitally." The trend Zeuthen is most bullish on is electric vehicles Electric vehicles were in the low-single-digits penetration in terms of new car sales last year He believes this will significantly accelerate "If we continue to see tightening regulatory pressures around carbon emissions and if we continue to see further government stimulus to support the construction of supercharging networks then we anticipate that electric vehicle penetration can surprise to the upside," Zeuthen said Zeuthen expects penetration to be between 20% to 30% over the next decade with rapid growth for an extended period of time he sees an inflection point in the electric vehicle market with significant upside potential who believed they made misleading claims to investors the fund had sold its stake in Nikola based on "a weakening fundamental story." Zeuthen sees COVID-19 accelerating one area of the C.A.S.E acronym He believes more people will look to change travel habits following the pandemic and will leave their expensive gas-guzzling vehicles behind and instead participate more in car-sharing subscription services with friends Zeuthen believes the first flights might begin next year and the growth potential and the profitability of the business could be quite robust over the next few years Zeuthen believes Virgin Galactic could be a clear player in hypersonic travel and thinks that it's under-recognized in the stock Fund Selector Asia As technology development and environmental concerns change how people travel and commute the mobility innovation theme is gaining greater attention among investors governments and consumers by materially altering interactions the growth of mobility innovation has been driven by the growth and rapid adoption in relation to electric vehicles (EVs) globally as well as the need for infrastructure to support it there are other opportunities that stem from the EV trend “While electric vehicles are clearly spearheading green energy transition there are opportunities up and down the value-chain as well as next-horizon investing opportunities that could expand the grid of cleaner energy sources such as drones and eVTOL aircraft,” said Robert Zeuthen fund manager of BNY Mellon Mobility Innovation Fund the asset manager believes electrification “Companies in this group are seeing solid fundamentals as the world invests in electric powertrains and grid infrastructure to promote more reliable and sustainable mobility,” said Zeuthen He noted that these companies offer attractive growth and valuations relative to the other sub-themes and the growth in the industry has started to materialise with manufacturers launching plans for future models to be introduced over the next few years The thrift of the industry is also boosted by government efforts to cut emissions energy security goals and cost of ownership “For automobile original equipment manufacturer to meet mandatory emissions requirements in countries such as China and Europe electric vehicles will be a necessary part of their overall fleet,” he said are taking a more proactive approach and factoring in sustainability when making their next vehicle purchase.” The BNY Mellon Mobility Innovation Fund is exposed to companies located worldwide that are focused on the mobility innovation theme About 60% of the fund’s assets are invested in companies in the US The fund’s largest exposure is to the semiconductor industry with 18.7% of its AUM invested in the sector followed by electrical equipment with 17.8% “We are cognizant that semiconductor stocks are poised to see negative estimate revisions in coming quarters and sales growth may decline next year broadly for the industry Industry lead times are beginning to contract in select categories and a loosening of supply may actually provide some relief for our equipment holdings where growth has been constrained,” said Zeuthen When compared with the MSCI AC World Index Mid Cap average the fund posted a 48.74% cumulative return over three years the FE fundinfo sector reported a 23.96% return The fund is quite volatile over a three-year period with volatility of 25.73% compared with the sector average of 18.19% BNY Mellon Mobility Innovation Fund vs index average vs sector average BNY Mellon expects to see strong growth in the mobility innovation theme over the next decade even as global growth slows given that governments around the world are pushing for more sustainable approaches to meet climate goals the asset manager said it is looking for opportunities to establish new positions in power management and motion control Grayscale’s innovation proxy;

Countering violent extremism (CVE) and risk reduction (RR) provide two increasingly prominent frameworks for countering the influence of individuals and entities involved in violent extremism (VE). Widely understood to describe a range of preventative and non-coercive measures, CVE may involve, for instance, community debates on sensitive topics, media messaging, interfaith dialogues, training of state governance and security actors, and a variety of initiatives with individuals deemed to be ‘at risk’ of being drawn to violence, such as vocational training and mentorship programmes. While there are substantial overlaps between CVE and RR in terms of activities, and many authorities group them under the same umbrella, RR can be considered distinct because its activities more narrowly target individuals who were previously directly or indirectly involved in the production of violence, such as defectors from VE entities, or those serving sentences for terrorism-related charges. This report aims to assist policy-makers and implementers by examining approaches through which to understand the drivers of VE and the wider context in which this violence occurs. It also looks at the design of CVE and RR programmes, and outlines key issues relating to programme monitoring and evaluation. The report recommends that those involved in designing and implementing CVE and RR programmes should adopt robust classification systems for VE drivers; apply the ‘results frameworks’ and ‘theories of change’ approaches; recognise that CVE is not rebranded development programming; target ‘at risk’ individuals; mitigate risk without being excessively risk-averse; and explore possibilities for experimental and quasi-experimental designs.  Dr James Khalil works as a consultant researcher and a design, monitoring and evaluation (DM&E) specialist on security-based projects in locations such as Egypt, Kenya, Mali, Pakistan, Somalia, South Sudan and Syria.

to Violent Extremism (STRIVE) in the Horn of Africa. security and international affairs to help build a safer UK and a more secure East German physicists collaborated with CERN despite the restrictions that existed as a result of the Berlin Wall author of a book on the history of the Zeuthen laboratory near East Berlin When Victor Weisskopf became director-general of CERN in July 1961 the laboratory had just about concluded a time of transition With the commissioning of the Proton Synchrotron (PS) the year before the European particle-physics community had turned to CERN hoping to participate in the most advanced experimental possibilities available in Europe at the time This had made it necessary to devise a procedure to decide which experiments to run and In setting up the Emulsion Experiments Committee the organization tried to channel the ideas of the groups that requested access to precious machine time Among the groups that declared their interest were some from Eastern Europe; thus one of the political issues Weisskopf had to face during his term was how to deal with requests from institutes on the other side of the Iron Curtain Weisskopf commented that he found it deplorable that CERN did not have any Eastern European members and he tried to secure the participation of these countries by other means One assumes that the question of East German access to CERN must have been particularly delicate and the West German government continued to threaten diplomatic sanctions to every country or international organization that dared to recognize East Germany as a veritable state (the so-called Hallstein doctrine) the head of the Research Laboratory for High Energy Physics in Zeuthen near the southern outskirts of East Berlin was already preparing for the first one-year stay of one of his scientists at CERN To answer this question we need to go back to the days before the big accelerators took over and high-energy physics was primarily the study of cosmic rays These studies lived through a golden age after the end of the Second World War and played in the shadow of nuclear energy (the physics topic of the time) a number of sensational discoveries were made by two English groups; the identification of the pion (by Powell) and the so-called V particles or kaons (by Rochester and Butler) led many nuclear physicists to turn to the study of cosmic rays the equipment needed to work on the topic was such that many groups all over Europe could afford it no matter how strongly their science and economy had been affected by the war this type of physics was so basic that politics interfered far less than in so many other building up old and new personal networks throughout the 1950s therefore became forerunners in the establishment of multinational collaborations and helped to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western European science in the first post-war years A major figure at the time was Cecil Powell the discoverer of the pion and Nobel laureate for physics in 1950 who later became a prominent figure in the Pugwash movement believed that science should endeavour to overcome political tensions In those days his laboratory in Bristol became a meeting place for many young scientists from various Western European countries later remembered his stay in Bristol: “Young people from a dozen nations or more worked together celebrated their parties together long before CERN existed I could not help thinking that the world would be better off if a similar spirit of co-operation would be prevailing in the field of politics also…” Powell’s is the most prominent example for the establishment of a principle that rules high-energy physics to this day – the international distribution of labour The principle also worked in Eastern Europe but for a number of years contact between the East and West remained scarce in collaboration with several Italian institutes To this end he and his team launched balloons that carried the photosensitive material to heights of about 30 km above sea level Developing and studying the emulsions was tedious To secure such assistance Powell had proposed involving East European institutes and had travelled with the silent consent of the British Foreign Office As a result universities in Moscow (Dobrotin and Vernov) and Warsaw (Danysz) were to receive two of the five emulsion packages to be exposed of which they eventually passed on plates to groups in Budapest Powell’s initiative had followed the first International Conference on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy held in Geneva in August 1955 an event that facilitated a first wave of visits and collaborations across the Iron Curtain a number of East European and Soviet scientists took the opportunity to visit the CERN site Yet the underlying political motive of the Soviet Union and the US was not so much to allow free collaboration but rather to draw third countries onto their respective sides when the Soviet Union noticed that CERN had started to attract the interest and attention of some of its satellite states it hastened to propose the foundation of an “Eastern Institute for Nuclear Research” The proposal could not be refused by countries such as Poland but it must be noted that the Soviet Union added considerable weight to its initiative by offering to include the 10 GeV Synchrophasotron in the new institute which became the most powerful accelerator in the world between 1957 and the advent of the PS 11 East European and Asian countries gathered in Moscow to found the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) JINR proposed an exchange of scientists between CERN and Dubna For several reasons it took two years before the administrative and political questions connected to such a collaboration were answered All CERN member states agreed that from a scientific point of view such an exchange would be highly desirable; only the German delegation to CERN voiced the concern that the “Soviet-occupied zone” (i.e East Germany) could attempt to send physicists to Geneva via Dubna in order to bring itself closer to international recognition The first exchange started in the latter half of 1960 As the group that arrived at CERN consisted of three Russian theorists the German reservation did not come to bear included an East German by the name of Walter Zöllner Had the position of the West German government changed The friendly relations between JINR and CERN but also shortcomings in the political and scientific situation in Dubna encouraged groups in Eastern Europe to seek direct admission to CERN One of the first to do so was Marian Danysz of Poland where he had established various valuable contacts in previous years Gottstein in Munich advised him to send a letter of interest to the newly formed Emulsion Experiments Committee if he wanted to participate in the exposure of emulsions at the PS and was immediately invited to the next meeting of the committee in February 1961 The man who answered Lanius’s request was Owen Lock one of the two secretaries of the committee Before sending his telegram to Zeuthen he had asked his former teacher and chairman of the committee In an exchange of letters after the meeting Lock also mentioned to Lanius that he had spoken with Weisskopf about “the development of good contacts between CERN and groups of non-member state countries He was much in favour of such contacts and asked us to do everything possible to foster them.” Three months later Lanius became one of three co-opted members of the committee The two others were Cormac O’Ceallaigh of Ireland This was a considerable success for Lanius whose new status was imperilled by the erection of the Berlin Wall For a few months travel to the West was almost impossible and Lanius did not get permission to go to the meeting in October Yet through the intercession of several government officials he was allowed to travel to Geneva again in November 1961 the institute in Zeuthen did not take part in emulsion experiments; rather Lanius used his visits to CERN to ensure participation in a collaboration that carried out a bubble chamber experiment with 4 GeV pions it was his West German contacts – Gottstein in Munich and Martin Teucher in Hamburg – that helped him in this Asked if it would be all right to pass exposed films to East Germany Weisskopf replied that there was no objection at all on the part of CERN to give pictures to Dr Lanius in East Berlin Up to this point Weisskopf had preferred not to make this a political issue This changed in 1962 when the “eminence grise” of East German physics sent him a letter asking if it were possible to delegate two young scientists to CERN for a few months This question tackled a central point of the organization’s policy and thus Weisskopf had to put it before the CERN Council The outcome was quite diplomatic: CERN could not accept requests from governments of non-member states “Any political motives are to be left completely out of consideration in this.” Unfortunately the minutes of the relevant Council meeting are lost but Weisskopf’s Solomonic statement indicates that the political body of CERN followed the director-general in his will not to let politics interfere in improving relations with the Eastern European physics community Lanius felt it was time to prepare the first long-term delegation of one of his scientists Weisskopf’s consent was easily received; the problem was rather to “sell” the importance of the CERN collaboration to the appropriate political institutions in his country when in June 1963 Lanius wrote to a government official that it was unknown if Weisskopf’s successor would be similarly interested in fostering the ties with the socialist countries he certainly anticipated that this argument was a good way to get visa formalities dealt with more quickly On 4 March the second highest party committee the secretariat of the East German communist party agreed to the delegation of Dr Arnold Meyer to CERN for one year Meyer had already left for Geneva a few days earlier Lanius succeeded in sending further staff members to CERN for longer stays and with the establishment of a separate budget for visiting scientists from non-member states these were usually even paid for by CERN funds The files in the CERN archives do not reflect why the West German government loosened its formerly rigid position towards the admission of East German physicists to CERN The most obvious explanation seems to be that the crisis in German-German relations which followed the erection of the Berlin Wall brought about a subtle but decisive change Bonn kept insisting that CERN should give no pretext to the East German government to use the international laboratory to legitimize its existence it obviously wished to counter the terrible act of the East German government by demonstrating the advantages of a liberal The decision adopted in 1962 by CERN Council referred the matter back to the merely administrative level and to the benevolence of the director-general The trick was simply to keep contacts and exchanges as far away from politics as possible East German high-energy physics could participate in various CERN experiments throughout the decades until 1990 when the two German states finally reunited Weisskopf lived to see his dream of the 1960s fulfilled in ample measure CERN is now a truly international laboratory with almost all of the Eastern European countries as member states and close contacts via co-operation agreements with effectively all of the remaining nations in addition to organizations and countries such as UNESCO peace and politics Physics World 10 (11) 35-40 Victor

Physics in 1973 from Humboldt University of Berlin (HUB with a thesis on low-energy heavy-ion physics He received his PhD in 1977 from the Institute for High Energy Physics (IHEP) of the Academy of Sciences of the GDR in Zeuthen (now part of DESY) on the subject of multiparticle production and his “habilitation” degree in 1984 from HUB spending several years from 1977 at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna He was awarded the Max von Laue Medal by the Academy of Sciences of the GDR in 1985 for his role in determining the asymmetric interaction of polarised positive and negative muons with the NA4 muon spectrometer at CERN’s SPS M2 muon beam As a member of the H1 experiment at the lepton–proton collider HERA from 1985 his research focused on investigating the internal structure of protons using deep inelastic scattering and he served as H1 spokesperson from 2002 to 2006 He became a Professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Liverpool in 2006 and joined the ATLAS collaboration in 2007 he made key contributions to data analysis notably on the high-precision 7 TeV inclusive W and Z boson production cross sections and associated properties He led the Liverpool ATLAS team for eight years the 30-strong group contributed to the maintenance of the SCT detector His contributions to understanding the proton structure using

commuter who blocked a TriMet bus to demand an apology and instead got punched in the face won a fraction of the $48,000 he sought in a lawsuit Arbitrator Gregory Zeuthen awarded cyclist Randy Albright $601 in a written ruling issued Thursday Zeuthen said TriMet and Albright were equally at fault for the Jan assault: TriMet because its bus driver conspired with the anonymous pas Silent TriMet video captured the bus nearly sideswiping Albright that morning.Zeuthen noted in his ruling that even though Albright had stopped to jot down the number of the bus so he could later lodge a complaint Albright needlessly caught up to the side of the bus and shouted at the driver for nearly 20 seconds Eighteen seconds passed before the driver let the anonymous passenger disembark from the bus Albright "clearly contributed to the escalation of the events," Zeuthen wrote.But Zeuthen also said bus driver Harold R Cooper was wrong to let the passenger off and then back on and not call police A witness heard the passenger say to Cooper I will take care of this," and the bus driver say Cooper knew he was contributing to an already deteriorating situation when he opened the door to allow this particular passenger off the bus," Zeuthen wrote.TriMet suspended Cooper He died in August 2005 in a boating accident Albright's award doesn't completely cover his medical expenses of $625 for a split lip requiring stitches let alone the $48,000 he sought for non-economic damages Albrightsaid he lost sleep after publicity on the case ignited a debate over cyclists and motorists sharing the road The arbitrator ruled that Albright also is entitled to "prevailing fees" --an amount TriMet spokeswoman Mary Fetsch said amounts to $250 And TriMet will be required to pay the
