Extract from the Guardian's article in its sereies: 'Resilient Cities'.
"... urban trees are both treasured and in jeopardy like
never before – beset by disease and spurious insurance
claims, and too readily felled by cash-strapped local
authorities which only see their potential cost rather than
their contribution to climate, public health and even the
wealth of a city."

Brussels , Belgium , 05 June 2013 - Green Week 2013 - The contribution of the LIFE programme to air quality in the EU : past , present & future © EU - Justin Toland
A session at this year's Green Week in Brussels has been dedicated to highlighting "The contribution of the LIFE programme to air quality in the EU: past, present and future". The session has been moderated by Alexis Tsalas of the LIFE-Environment & Eco-Innovation Unit, with presentations by Dr Georgia Valaoras, Regional Coordinator for South-East Europe, Astrale GEIE and Stijn Janssen, Environmental Modeling, VITO NV.
The session presented the findings and highlights of a 2012 study commissioned by the European Commission, "The contribution of LIFE projects to the implementation and development of EU air quality policy and legislation". The actions and outcomes of a LIFE air quality project were hightlighted by a second presentaioin. The final presentation - "The future of LIFE and air quality: the new LIFE Regulation 2014-2020" - has given a brief outline of the future LIFE programme, with emphasis on integrated projects and how these will bring about a multiplier effect to enable local and regional problems to be addressed in a more comprehensive and effective way.

Panels A, B, C, D correspond to cases shown in panels v, vi, viii, ix in Figure 2. For each case, the change in AP and SP durations following θ block is shown next to the variations of CAP (red, diamonds) and CSP (blue, stars) with g (the maximum amplitude of cellular adaptation). Blocking θ means changing g from 1 to 0. As g reaches 0, both CAP and CSP reach 1 since s becomes the only variable controlling episodic activity. In A and B, the contributions measures are also the same before the block (g = 1, rectangle highlights), nevertheless the blockade leads to different changes in AP and SP durations. Thus, these changes in durations after the block cannot be used to predict the respective contributions of each process before the block. Panels C and D illustrate the same points, with similar contributions measures before the block (oval highlights) but different effects of the block on AP and SP durations. Finally, panels B and C show that despite different contributions measures (oval vs. rectangle highlight) before the block, the resulting effect of the block on AP and SP durations are the same. Again, results from the block do not provide much information about the respective contributions of each process before the block.

From the official program;
Veterans Day is an opportunity to publicly commemorate the contributions of living veterans. Armistice Day officially received its name in America in 1926 through a congressional resolution. It became a national holiday 12 years later by similar congressional action.
If W.W.II had been "the war to end all wars," Nov. 11 might still be called Armistice Day. Realizing that peace was equally preserved by veterans of W.W.II and Korea, Congress decided to make the day an occasion to honor all those who have served America. In 1954 President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a bill proclaiming Nov. 11 as Veterans Day.
A law passed in 1968 changed the national commemoration of Veterans Day to the fourth Monday in October. It soon became apparent, however, that Nov. 11 was a date of historic significance to many Americans. Therefore, in 1978 Congress returned the observation to its traditional date.

Philadelphia, commonly referred to as Philly, is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania and the second-most populous city in the Northeast megalopolis and Mid-Atlantic regions after New York City. Philadelphia is known for its extensive contributions to United States history, especially the American Revolution, and served as the nation's capital until 1800. It maintains contemporary influence in business and industry, culture, sports, and music. Philadelphia is the nation's sixth-most populous city with a population of 1,603,797 as of the 2020 census and is the urban core of the larger Delaware Valley (or Philadelphia metropolitan area), the nation's seventh-largest and one of the world's largest metropolitan regions consisting of 6.245 million residents in the metropolitan statistical area and 7.366 million residents in its combined statistical area.
Philadelphia was founded in 1682 by William Penn, an English Quaker and advocate of religious freedom. The city served as the capital of the Pennsylvania Colony during the British colonial era and went on to play a historic and vital role as the central meeting place for the nation's founding fathers whose plans and actions in Philadelphia ultimately inspired the American Revolution and the nation's independence following the Revolutionary War. Philadelphia hosted the First Continental Congress in 1774, preserved the Liberty Bell, and hosted the Second Continental Congress during which the founders signed the Declaration of Independence, which historian Joseph Ellis has described as "the most potent and consequential words in American history". Once the Revolutionary War commenced, the Battle of Germantown and the siege of Fort Mifflin were fought within Philadelphia's city limits. The U.S. Constitution was later ratified in Philadelphia at the Philadelphia Convention of 1787. Philadelphia remained the nation's largest city until 1790, when it was surpassed by New York City, and it served as the nation's first capital from May 10, 1775, until December 12, 1776, and on four subsequent occasions during and following the American Revolution, including from 1790 to 1800 during the construction of the new national capital of Washington, D.C.
With 18 four-year universities and colleges, Philadelphia is one of the nation's leading centers for higher education and academic research. As of 2018, the Philadelphia metropolitan area was the state's largest and nation's ninth-largest metropolitan economy with a gross metropolitan product of US$444.1 billion. The city is home to five Fortune 500 corporate headquarters as of 2022. As of 2023, metropolitan Philadelphia ranks among the top five U.S. venture capital centers, facilitated by its proximity to New York City's entrepreneurial and financial ecosystems. The Philadelphia Stock Exchange, owned by Nasdaq since 2008, is the nation's oldest stock exchange and a global leader in options trading. 30th Street Station, the city's primary rail station, is the third-busiest Amtrak hub in the nation, and the city's multimodal transport and logistics infrastructure, includes Philadelphia International Airport, and the rapidly-growing PhilaPort seaport. A migration pattern has been established from New York City to Philadelphia by residents opting for a large city with relative proximity and a lower cost of living.
Philadelphia is a national cultural center, hosting more outdoor sculptures and murals than any other city in the nation. Fairmount Park, when combined with adjacent Wissahickon Valley Park in the same watershed, is 2,052 acres (830 ha), representing one of the nation's largest and the world's 45th-largest urban park. The city is known for its arts, culture, cuisine, and colonial and Revolution-era history; in 2016, it attracted 42 million domestic tourists who spent $6.8 billion, representing $11 billion in economic impact to the city and its surrounding Pennsylvania counties.
With five professional sports teams and one of the nation's most loyal fan bases, Philadelphia is often ranked as the nation's best city for professional sports fans. The city has a culturally and philanthropically active LGBTQ+ community. Philadelphia also has played an immensely influential historic and ongoing role in the development and evolution of American music, especially R&B, soul, and rock.
Philadelphia is a city of many firsts, including the nation's first library (1731), hospital (1751), medical school (1765), national capital (1774), university (by some accounts) (1779), stock exchange (1790), zoo (1874), and business school (1881). Philadelphia contains 67 National Historic Landmarks, including Independence Hall. From the city's 17th century founding through the present, Philadelphia has been the birthplace or home to an extensive number of prominent and influential Americans. In 2021, Time magazine named Philadelphia one of the world's greatest 100 places.

The Philadelphia Museum of Art is an art museum originally chartered in 1876 for the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia. The main museum building was completed in 1928 on Fairmount, a hill located at the northwest end of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway at Eakins Oval. The museum administers collections containing over 240,000 objects including major holdings of European, American and Asian origin. The various classes of artwork include sculpture, paintings, prints, drawings, photographs, armor, and decorative arts.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art administers several annexes including the Rodin Museum, also located on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, and the Ruth and Raymond G. Perelman Building, which is located across the street just north of the main building. The Perelman Building, which opened in 2007, houses more than 150,000 prints, drawings and photographs, 30,000 costume and textile pieces, and over 1,000 modern and contemporary design objects including furniture, ceramics, and glasswork.
The museum also administers the historic colonial-era houses of Mount Pleasant and Cedar Grove, both located in Fairmount Park. The main museum building and its annexes are owned by the City of Philadelphia and administered by a registered nonprofit corporation.
Several special exhibitions are held in the museum every year, including touring exhibitions arranged with other museums in the United States and abroad. The museum had 437,348 visitors in 2021.

As a contribution to the legacy of the European Year of Cultural Heritage, the presidency of Bulgaria, the Bulgarian Ministry of Culture and Europeana wanted to highlight the relevance of digital cultural heritage to the aims of the European Union during the next multiannual framework. During this two day event in Varna on May 28-29, 62 participants from 21 countries explored this together with experts and representatives of ministries of culture across Europe and draft a vision that expresses this contribution in concrete terms.

my contribution for the exhibition "JUST WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES THAT THING SO DIFFERENT, SO APPEALING?"
Expodium artist initiative, Utrecht, Hoog Catharijne
In the busiest mall of the country I placed a kiosk to produce and sell concrete souvenirs.
At the moment the future of the mall is a prominent discussed item.
I placed this kiosk in memory of the opening of the mall in 1972.
The mall was build after an initiative of a big concrete company, and when it was opened, several traditional Utrecht shops which moved there where advertising in an oldfashioned kitch style. (So with this work I am alluding to the indifference between modernism and tradition which led the pioneers of Hoog Cathatrijne)
