A novel in situ/operando method is introduced to measure the photon beam stability of synchrotron radiation based on orthogonal diffraction imaging of a Laue crystal/analyzer, which can decouple the energy/wavelength and Bragg angle of the photon beam using the dispersion effect in the diffraction process. The method was used to measure the energy jitter and drift of the photon beam on BL09B and BL16U at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The experimental results show that this method can provide a fast way to measure the beam stability of different light sources including bending magnet and undulator with meV-level energy resolution and ms-level time response.

The general equation of the δ direct methods is established and applied in its difference form to the definition of one of the two residuals that constitute the SMAR phasing algorithm. These two residuals use the absolute value of ρ and/or the zero conversion of negative Fourier ripples (≥50% of the unit-cell volume). Alternatively, when solved for ρ, the general equation provides a simple derivation of the already known δM tangent formula.

"Ethiopia's agricultural sector, which is dominated by smallscale, mixed-crop, and livestock farming, is the mainstay of the country's economy. It constitutes more than half of the country's gross domestic product, generates more than 85 percent of foreign exchange earnings, and employs about 80 percent of the population. Unfortunately, Ethiopia's dependence on agriculture makes the country particularly vulnerable to the adverse impactsof climate change on crop and livestock production.

Who are you? What is your story? How do you express yourself? The experiences of Black queer life are reflected in the ways we tell our stories. We will explore a kiki methodology grounded in ballroom culture and Black queer storytelling. Drawing from queer of color critique and narrative construction, kiki methodology engages in three components: Black queer meaning-making, Black queer storytelling, and Black queer artistic expression. Kiki methodology connects envisioning and centering words, feelings, and voices of the Black queer community in the form of storytelling in higher education. We will engage about what is needed to be in queer community and kinship through storytelling.

The OSCE Project Co-ordinator in Ukraine invites the representatives of legal academia of Ukraine to participate in the “Summer School on General Legal Theory and Teaching Methodology”. The summer school will be held in Ivano-Frankivsk region from 15 to 19 August 2016.

Leading Ukrainian and international experts in the fields of general legal theory and teaching methodology have been invited to conduct the summer school.

This activity is organized under the Project “Improving Legal and Human Rights Education in Ukraine” aimed to create necessary conditions for strengthening the capacity of legal academia to teach legal disciplines aimed at training future lawyers to respect, protect and promote human rights and support proper functioning of human rights protection mechanisms.

Teachers of general legal theory are primarily invited to participate in the summer school; the applications will be reviewed on a competitive basis. All the applicants should send a CV and an essay stating personal and professional interest of participation in the summer school (length: up to 2 pages of printed text, font: Times New Roman 14, spacing: 1.5, margins: right – 1, left – 3, top and bottom – 2) until 25 July 2016 inclusive via email to osce.school@gmail.com.

The selected participants from other cities will be reimbursed for travel expenses to and from the venue of the summer school in Ivano-Frankivsk region within a “coupe” or 2nd class of “Intercity” fare. Accommodation and meals will be provided by the organizers. Successful participants will be additionally informed about the exact venue of the summer school.

To confirm your participation in the summer school and in case of any additional questions regarding the organization and conduct of the summer school, please refer to us via email at osce.school@gmail.com.
