ALIA in partnership with the Office of Community Cohesion is looking to work with public libraries across the country on an exciting new community engagement initiative. Participating libraries will receive a payment of $9,900 incl GST in order to host a range of programs that strengthen, grow, and protect community cohesion in diverse ways.
Information session on Wednesday 25 June, 12:30pm AEST. This is your opportunity to find out more and ask questions before putting in your expres…

Celebrity haunt that made ‘Chinese chicken salad a household name’ to close this summer
Sweet-crunchy, crispy-wonton-laced Chinese chicken salad was most likely created by Madame Sylvia Wu at her Santa Monica restaurant Madame Wu’s Garden,
but a large share of the dish’s popularity across L.A. in the 1980s and ’90s can be credited to Chin Chin.
“Owner and founder Bob Mandler is the man responsible for making Chinese chicken salad a household name in Los Angeles County, …

West Hollywood's Chin Chin will serve its last Chinese chicken salad in July
The West Hollywood restaurant that helped popularize Chinese American cuisine will close in late July after more than 40 years in business.

I used to fantasize about video games wowing audiences by using AI to do things previously impossible.
Voiceovers using your chosen character name.
A “teleport in” effect using a latent space walk for a unique look.
Fighting game CPU opponents that feel human.
Pokémon games with all 1,025 mons and dozens of animations each.
But my fantasy will never come true. The features might appear, but anything AI will produce more controversy than wowing.

Pistorius: Manifest zu Russland "Realitätsverweigerung"
Verteidigungsminister Boris Pistorius hat Forderungen prominenter Politiker aus seiner SPD nach einer Kehrtwende in der Russland-Politik scharf zurückgewiesen. "Dieses Papier ist Realitätsverweigerung. Es missbraucht den Wunsch der Menschen in unserem Land nach Ende des furchtbaren Krieges in der Ukraine. Nach Frieden", sagte er.

Vorstoß aus der SPD zu Außenpolitik: Auch die SPD-Fraktion geht auf Distanz
Das Positionspapier von mehr als 100 SPD-nahen Personen zu einer anderen Sicherheits- und Verteidigungspolitik und Gesprächen mit Russland sorgt für Wirbel. Reaktionen aus der Partei fallen teils sehr scharf aus.

Gauge-invariant Wigner equation for electromagnetic fields: Strong and weak formulation
Gauge-invariant Wigner theory describes the quantum-mechanical evolution of charged particles in the presence of an electromagnetic field in phase space, which is spanned by position and kinetic momentum. This approach is independent of the chosen potentials, as it depends only on the electric and magnetic field variables. Several approaches to derive a gauge-invariant Wigner evolution equation have been reported, which are generally complex. This work presents a new formulation for a single el…

crossMoDA Challenge: Evolution of Cross-Modality Domain Adaptation Techniques for Vestibular Schwannoma and Cochlea Segmentation from 2021 to 2023
The cross-Modality Domain Adaptation (crossMoDA) challenge series, initiated in 2021 in conjunction with the International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI), focuses on unsupervised cross-modality segmentation, learning from contrast-enhanced T1 (ceT1) and transferring to T2 MRI. The task is an extreme example of domain shift chosen to serve as a meaningful and illustrative benchmark. From a clinical application perspective, it aims to automate Ve…

More ghost modules I
Ghost modules were introduced in [I3] without definitions or proofs. We also introduced stability diagrams or "relative pictures" for torsion classes and torsion-free classes for representations of Dynkin quivers. Modules which were not in the chosen class reappeared as "ghosts", in fact one missing module produced two ghosts. In this short paper, we give a precise definition of ghost modules. We give several examples and prove basis properties of ghosts and pictures for torsion and torsion-fre…

ABC News Parts Ways With Terry Moran Over His Social Media Post About Trump And Aide Stephen Miller
ABC News says that it has chosen not to renew the contract of Terry Moran after he posted, then deleted, an attack on Donald Trump and his top aide Stephen Miller. ABC News suspended Moran on Sunday. “We are at the end of our agreement with Terry Moran and based on his recent post – […]

Fiona Hill’s argument is that
in a time of profound uncertainty,
Britain needs greater internal cohesion if it is to protect itself.
“We can’t rely exclusively on anyone any more,” she said,
arguing that Britain needed to have “a different mindset” based as much on traditional defence as on social resilience.
Some of that, Hill said, was about a greater recognition of the level of external threat and initiatives for greater integration,
by teaching first a…
