Paderborn (Germany), 17 April 2012: There is a clearly economic, political and social pressure to use energy more efficiently and telecoms have a role to play. If Utility companies want to move from monthly or quarterly billing to a system that measures and charges by the hour or the minute, then telecoms billing companies are a natural supplier of the technology. Orga Systems offers convergence beyond fixed and wireless. Its Dynamic Energy Billing enables dynamic pricing and real-time rating of consumption data to support the growing adoption of Smart Grids and Smart Metering technology. It provides flexible tariff capabilities to improve the efficiency of energy generation, distribution and usage while reducing CO2-Emissions.
Monetization of consumption at all times By moving the tariffs and rating from a smart meter to a centralized IT system, it is possible to utilize dynamic tariffing and billing on a network-wide basis. The meter provides information and readings on a real-time basis which can be used by the energy company to flexibly monitor consumption at all parts of the network as well as using information to detect theft of energy from pirate connections. The key is the central IT based system, which ensures accurate pricing and prevents fraud by e.g. introducing pre-payment schemes to the customers.
Benefitting from Direct Load Control The average home wastes 25% of its energy; to continuously decrease energy waste Orga Systems enables the customer to choose different tariffs and sources of energy at different times of the day. Green technology is generated by offering the customer opportunities to use appliances when energy is cheaper. Orga Systems Energy & Billing Platform is able to bill energy usage in line with highly dynamic hourly spot market prices. The dynamic prices are used to trigger a Demand Side Management (DSM) for selected home devices. Given a green energy scenario, the focus would be on the substitution of fossil fuels (gas, oil) for water heating of private households in times when excessive and cheap renewable energy from the electricity grid is available. *** Orga Systems – #1 choice for real-time charging and billing Orga Systems’ convergent real-time charging and billing portfolio enables profitable business for Telecommunication Companies, Mobile Finance Institutions, Energy and Telematic Suppliers. Orga Systems’ products and consulting services are designed for living in a connected world: scalable architecture, outstanding performance, lowest rating latency and consequent customer-centricity ensure reliable access to any kind of next generation mobile services.

(ddp direct) Berlin, 21. Juli 2011 Unter dem Titel Changing the Debate on Europe Moving Beyond Conventional Wisdoms wollen die Hertie School of Governance, die London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) und die Stiftung Mercator der Europa-Debatte eine neue Richtung geben. Am 9. und 10. November 2011 kommen dazu führende Akteure aus Wissenschaft, Politik, Wirtschaft, Zivilgesellschaft und Medien beim Dahrendorf-Symposium 2011 zusammen. Ziel ist es, im Geiste Lord Ralf Dahrendorfs bekannte Denk- und Argumentationsmuster der öffentlichen Diskussion um Europa zu hinterfragen und mit neuen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen zu kontrastieren. Durch einen intensiven Austausch von Wissenschaft und Politik wollen die Organisatoren neue Impulse für die Bewältigung der Krise geben, die Europa derzeit erlebt. Bewusst setzen sie dabei auf einen spannungsreichen Dialog im Rahmen einer deutsch-britischen Kooperation.
Unter der Gesamtleitung von Helmut K. Anheier, Dean der Hertie School, und Damian Chalmers, Direktor des Europa-Instituts an der LSE, arbeiten derzeit fünf international besetzte Wissenschaftlerteams in London und Berlin an den Themen Europa als Idee und Vision, Konfliktbewältigung in Europa, Europa als sozialer Raum, Europa als Wirtschaftsraum und Europa und die Welt. Auf dem Dahrendorf-Symposium treffen die wissenschaftlichen Ergebnisse auf Beiträge und Erwiderungen profilierter Vertreter aus Politik, Wirtschaft, Zivilgesellschaft und den Medien. Als Diskussionsteilnehmer sind unter anderem eingeladen: Bundesumweltminister Norbert Röttgen, die Hohe Vertreterin der EU für Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik Catherine Ashton, der ehemalige italienische Premierminister Guliano Amato, der langjährige EU-Kommissar Mario Monti, der Labour-Politiker und ehemalige EU-Handelskommissar Peter Mandelson, der US-amerikanische Finanzinvestor und Philanthrop George Soros, der Parteivorsitzende von BÜNDNIS 90/DIE GRÜNEN Cem Özdemir und der Generalsekretär der FDP Christian Lindner. Wissenschaftliche Beiträge werden unter anderem erwartet von Timothy Garton Ash (Oxford/Stanford), Judith Butler (Berkeley), Henrik Enderlein (Hertie School), Simon Hix (LSE) und Jean Pisani-Ferry (Bruegel). Changing the Debate on Europe Moving Beyond Conventional Wisdoms wird von der Stiftung Mercator gefördert, die sich innerhalb ihrer internationalen Strategie unter anderem dem Schwerpunkt Europa widmet. Aus Sicht von Bernhard Lorentz, Geschäftsführer der Stiftung Mercator, bietet sich mit dem Dahrendorf-Symposium 2011 die außergewöhnliche Chance, die vorherrschende Krisenrhetorik zur europäischen Integration aufzubrechen und einen Wandel des öffentlichen Diskurses über Europa einzuleiten.

By exploring multiple spiritual scenarios, the viewer is immersed in different "possible? visible existences that are as profound and true as reality itself. They represent new episodes of almost tangible reality constructed with an incisive and innovative artistic code. Painting that is essential, lofty and experimental, based on kaleidoscopic fragments, rebirths and memories that can be perceived from different, unexpected perspectives. Visalli declares the proactiveness of intense colour where countless flights of perspective draw one's gaze to different parallel planes, offering new points of view, colour vibrations and phantasmagorias. The interpenetration of colour tones highlights the forms represented, which centre on encounters and combinations of asynchronisms dictated by his instinct and projected on new spatial-temporal axes. In these "alternative realities? human emotions and adversities follow one upon the other: torment and joy, destruction and hope, failure and victory, threats and security. Each aspect finds its equilibrium in its reciprocal opposite within a harmonic and ordered chaos. They support infinite interpretations, playing with the perception and distortion of the entity represented. It is an extremely interactive visual language that continually subjects our certainties to analysis. The exhibition offers the public the artist's entire production and unpublished works, serving as an anthology of the force of his painting and its full affirmation of today's contemporary art... (taken from the critical text "Le Euritmie del Caos? (The Eurhythmies of Chaos) by Rosi Raneri. The show is based on the critical text by Giovanni Faccenda and is collected in a valuable catalogue published by Editoriale Giorgio Mondatori.

Charlotte Stein Infantellina Hotline: 0049(0)172/8602082 Biography Francesco Visalli was born in 1960, the son of a postal worker and a teacher. He grew up in one of the poorest and most notorious areas of Rome, the "Borghetto Prenestino?, made infamous by Pier Paolo Pasolini?s "Ragazzi di Vita?. His father died when he was 14 years old, an event which deeply affected his life. Francesco, an only child, was forced to look for a job to support his mother and pay for his studies. One of the teachers at the technical school he attended found him a place in his firm, which enabled him to enrol in a faculty of architecture and go to live by himself at the age of 19. Francesco was determined, but he was also very young, and work, study and a house demanded commitment and sacrifices. His degree, which would provide him with a better life, was still in the distant future and he felt angry. He was troubled, very alone and afraid; but preferring not to dwell on his own feelings, he sought distraction in sex, drugs and bad company, and become a political extremist. Then, when he was 21, he fell in love with a woman and followed her to Los Angeles: this was just the first of many transformations that would occur in his life. The woman he loved was rich and he lived surrounded by comfort. He continued to work, completing his studies, until he began to feel suffocated by the woman and her wealth. So he left everything and returned to Rome, where he could start afresh. Free and finally qualified, he set up a studio in his house, dedicating himself totally to his work. At 25 years of age, he finally met the woman that was to be his great love. They married and he began a spiritual journey with her that changed him profoundly, helping him to find the deep meaning of his life in the Catholic faith. The courage, faith and great strength of his marriage helped him to open up his professional life to success; he started his first design company, which produced important work in Italy and abroad, and then, still by himself, created two more companies. These were years of great victories, of economic fortune, of esteem and praise from many people, that were always accompanied by his deep faith and love for his wife. They were also years of miracles that he would never have dreamed of, such as the three children he had with his wife, even though medical opinion had declared him completely sterile. Then, at 43 years of age, everything ended; Francesco fell into bitter delusion, lost his faith, saw everything fall apart and left his wife: these were his years of exile. He continued to work, but knew that he was not free, experiencing disappointment, failure, frustration, sickness and solitude. He finally threw in the towel and closed everything down, spending his time doing nothing: he was now 50 years old and had lived more than enough; what was the point of continuing, if everything was finished? This was his darkest hour. On the night of 11 October, 2009, however, everything changed once more. Francesco picked up a pen and began to draw things he had never seen before. He spent the entire night drawing, continuing the next day, the following night and so on, for days on end. Francesco?s hand, as if guided by something divine, was rapidly moving around the white sheet of paper of its own joyful accord, producing fantastic drawings. Colours burst out and unusual shapes came to life from his hands. After a few weeks, the drawings became paintings. Although he had no knowledge of painting technique, he acquired it by working, finding within himself a style that already had its own very precise expressions and definition, which was his style. Each painting is a new discovery, and he deliberately keeps no records, does not study, has no desire to learn from others and does not look at the great masters, in order not to be conditioned by those that have preceded him. Visalli works like an erupting volcano, continuously drawing and painting whatever his instincts tell him. He passes through the classic creative phases, first producing the drawing and then choosing and applying the colours, without letting himself be encumbered by thought and without any mediation, almost as if in a trance. The relationship between the shapes and colour combinations in his paintings is the product of a harmony that is never deliberately sought, but discovered by chance each time. It is as if he unwraps each canvas to discover the colours that are already there, simply waiting to be revealed by him. He is amazed by the finished pictures that suddenly appear in front of him, like newly discovered portions of an unknown land, which is this strange new reality that he is living. Visalli did not consider and decide on painting as an alternative to his former profession; painting erupted into his life and chose him. His shapes and geometry are defined by a subtle white line that runs between the colours, which never touch each other. The line is left by the canvas, because it is the canvas that designs the painting; his falsely seraphic figures form a subtle aperture between the eye of the observer and the soul of their creator, who, as if hiding from himself, "wants? to calm the vortex of his dramas and victories behind those distant and rather absent forms; or else hurl himself courageously towards new and infinite horizons, where beyond one heaven lies another, in scenes of a cosmic reality. He obtains incongruous results, rather like quietly shouting at the top of one?s voice, a freezing heat or a whirling stillness. His paintings bring to light his past and future life, without his involvement, like a flurry of pangs and torments viewed through the wrong end of a pair of binoculars, always moving a bit further beyond the heart, in an "Alternative Reality?. (Biography edited by "Ich Traume?) Critical text: Giovanni Faccenda Intimate beings of another dimension "Man basically loves that which most reminds him of these almost subconscious visions, these visions which are his secret world, unknown to others and which no one can take away from him, because he keeps this world in his brain?. Giorgio de Chirico, Paesaggi, ?L'Illustrazione italiana', Milan, 24 May 1942. There are some men whose most cherished landscapes belong to an imaginary nature. Temperamentally driven towards dreaming (with their eyes open), they often lose themselves in it to find vital footholds, which are as salutary as they are stimulating. The reality, for this privileged kind of individual, is merely a rigid convention: a closed perimeter like the walls of a prison from where they can guess what lies beyond. Until a little while ago, out of ignorance, I knew nothing of the work of Francesco Visalli. Then, a most valued, sensitive and enlightened friend, Luana Baraccani, presented me with an opportunity to fill this lamentable gap - a series of reproductions that instantly expressed the merits of paintings which, amongst other virtues, possess one in particular: namely, that they are originals. Despite having always been wary of impressions derived from photos or modern digital devices - painting demands another type of visual contact, real and direct - I was immediately persuaded by those partial references I had seen to look further into the work of Visalli - a solitary, noble figure in a contemporary landscape where, sadly, other and certainly less talented figures tend to shine. Having got past the intriguing impact of their surface, the canvasses, ably brought to fruition by a painter who does not lack certain brave expressive audacities, show places that are not places and men who are not men. One might say instead that, after looking at them in sufficient depth, one sees dimensions and beings that live in the mind of an artist whose most urgent need is to transfer them using exquisitely allusive perspective. Those accentuated forms, alien to any type of geographical or physiognomic connotation, indeed are home to illusions and waste that evoke a hidden existence both present and past - that of Visalli. The depiction is an echo of cavernous personal tremblings, by establishing an iconographic mirage that appears almost therapeutic: it manifests itself in the richness of transfigured symbols, scenes inhabited by legends and archetypes, with the presence of an aura to pacify intimate troubles or awaken dreamy abandonments. Even a rapid examination of the last century of art fails to produce any legitimate lineage. They bring together, naturally, in a creative figure characterised by an obviously imaginative ability, the fertile seeds of a surrealist season meritoriously treated by Visalli in the right measure, without, that is, those cloying adhesions, at times even symmetrical, that lead to the dangerous abyss of epigonism. In this sense, it is worth pointing out some other noble connections from further back in time, which, as hazy as they might be, nevertheless reverberate with reflections of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, evoking, first, the distinguished examples of Paolo Uccello and Piero della Francesca and then, Duccio di Buoninsegna and Simone Martini. An example: L'alba di Madame Chisciotte (Madame Quixote's Dawn) - doesn't this work contain a faint suggestion, perhaps even unknowingly, originating from Guidoriccio da Fogliano by the incomparable Simone Martini? Visalli is a cultured man. He has travelled, lived and read. From the sum total of his experiences, human and spiritual, flows the sound philosophical substratum that gives each of his works a particular light. A visionary painter, who nevertheless loves to enrich every painting with an arcane existential flavour, a mixture of distinct fragrances: the sour and the sweet combine to give birth to a continuous feeling of alienation that comes to those who look at his paintings in spellbound astonishment. These remain and reaffirm themselves, moreover, as pictorial settings full of unanswered questions and, at the same time, established facts, as is appropriate for those who are inclined, by nature, to constantly question themselves and spare nothing in the difficult and endless pursuit for what constitutes the ultimate truth. This is the goal. Painting, therefore, means exploring unstable mental equilibriums, precarious human relationships and what remains in the soul - and why - as a perennially flourishing recollection, capable of conditioning to such an extent - for good or for bad - the present and the future of a man. From Diogenes to Freud, with Nietzsche and Schopenhauer along the way, the interludes with which Visalli's extensive intellectual journey is peppered are therefore varied and recurrent. As a young man, Giorgio de Chirico once wrote: "We are travellers always ready for new departures?. However, for Odysseus, Ithaca is far away and his return is hindered by all sorts of obstacles. Visalli knows them and knows what peaks, seas, arid lands, tempests and perils need to be overcome in order just to imagine the sun behind the mountain. He feeds off the strong roots of his dream and his is a way of painting in which so many indelible scars have undoubtedly hardened, but where the warmth of the sun's rays have also opened up the threshold for what were to become his new days. Finally, it is dear to me to think, flitting around with my imagination, that, although those anthropomorphic beings - that's how I labelled them earlier - are seductively calling us to do, he has finally found his chosen home on the perfect Easter Island, different from Rapa Nui, where the gigantic Moai, all facing in the same direction, know the hidden secrets of the world and in the evening they divulge them whispering to those who like Visalli, have a heart and ears to listen to them. Florence, March 2011 IT Francesco Visalli Realtà Alternativa Città:Londra (UK) Spazio:Mall Galleries Indirizzo:(near Admiralty Arch) The Mall, London, SW1 Periodo:13/18 giugno Orario:10 am / 5 pm Titolo:realtà alternativa Artista:Francesco Visalli Opening:13 giugno Testo Critico:Giovanni Faccenda Catalogo:Editoriale Giorgio Mondadori Pr:Infantellina Contemporary La mostra, ospitata dal 13 al 18 giugno dalla Mall Galleries di Londra, segna il percorso espressivo dell'artista italiano Francesco Visalli, volendone mostrare le singolari e alternative visioni intellettive. Inoltrandosi nell'esplorazione di plurimi scenari spirituali, immerge l'osservatore in differenti e "possibili? esistenze visibili, profonde e veritiere al pari della realtà stessa. Rappresentano nuovi episodi di reale, quasi tangibili, realizzati con un incisivo e innovativo codice artistico. Una pittura essenziale e sperimentale, volta alla rappresentazione di caleidoscopici frammenti, rinascenze e memorie, percepibili da differenti e inaspettate prospettive. Visalli dichiara l'intraprendenza del carattere intensamente cromatico, laddove innumerevoli fughe prospettiche richiamano lo sguardo da differenti piani paralleli per offrire nuovi punti di vista, vibrazioni di colore e fantasmagorie. La compenetrazione delle tonalità cromatiche evidenzia le forme rappresentate, che si concentrano in incontri e combinazioni di asincronismi dettati dal suo istinto e proiettati su nuove assi spazio-temporali. All'interno di tali "realtà alternative? si avvicendano i sentimenti e le contrarietà umane: tormenti e gioie, distruzioni e speranze, fallimenti e vittorie, minacce e sicurezze. Ogni aspetto trova il suo equilibrio nel suo reciproco opposto, all'interno di un armonico e ordinato caos. Si mantengono infinite forme di lettura, giocando con la percezione e la distorsione delle entità rappresentate. E' un linguaggio visivo estremamente interattivo che pone continuamente in analisi le nostre certezze. L'esposizione rivolge così al pubblico l'intera produzione dell'artista e l'esibizione di opere inedite, proponendo una rappresentazione antologica della forza della sua pittura e sancendo la piena affermazione nell'arte odierna contemporanea. La mostra si avvale del testo critico di Giovanni Faccenda ed è raccolta in un prezioso catalogo edito da Editoriale Giorgio Mondatori.

Die Gründung des International Accounting Standards Committee (IASC) im Jahr 1973 war ein Ereignis, das jenseits der Finanzpresse kaum Erwähnung fand. Spätestens seit der europaweiten verpflichtenden Anwendung der internationalen Bilanzierungsvorschriften durch kapitalmarktorientierte Unternehmen steht die Nachfolgeorganisation - das International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) - jedoch im Fokus der Bilanzierungswelt. Mit der Entwicklung des Gremiums zu einem der maßgeblichen Rechnungslegungsinstitutionen ging eine zunehmende Politisierung der Standardsetzung einher, da eine steigende Zahl an Interessengruppen ihren Einfluss geltend machen möchte. Im Rahmen unserer Veranstaltung stellen wir die Entstehung und die Arbeit des IASB näher vor und möchten die politischen Prozesse des Gremiums zur Diskussion stellen. Sie sind herzlich eingeladen, dieser Veranstaltung und der anschließenden Diskussion beizuwohnen. Bitte melden Sie sich zu dieser Veranstaltung per E-Mail (info@gk-rechnungslegung.de) bis zum 07.04.2011 an. Für Mitglieder der GKR, Angehörige der HHL und Studierende (mit entsprechendem Nachweis) ist die Teilnahme kostenfrei. Darüber hinaus wird eine Teilnehmergebühr in Höhe von 40 EUR erhoben. Bitte beachten Sie, dass die Veranstaltung in englischer Sprache stattfinden wird.

China setzt die nepalesische Regierung auf vielfältige Weise unter Druck, gegen Peking gerichtete Proteste der Tibeter auf ihrem Staatsgebiet zu unterbinden. Am 2. Januar wurden wieder sechs Flüchtlinge festgenommen. Wie aus einer geheimen, von Wikileaks veröffentlichten US-Depeche hervorgeht, setzt China nun auch seine finanzielle Stärke ein, um die nepalesische Polizei dafür zu bezahlen, daß sie Angehörige der Exilgemeinde festnimmt.
