Kultūros dėmuo politinių partijų programose vis ryškesnis, tačiau, kaip pastebi jas nagrinėję ekspertai, gilesnių įžvalgų ir priemonių, kaip spręsti kultūros sektoriaus problemas, trūksta.Šiuo metu atnaujinamas Sugiharos namų muziejus Kaune sulaukė gerų žinių – įsteigtas neliečiamojo kapitalo fondas, kuris sieks sukurti nepriklausomą pasyvių pajamų srautą, leisiantį muziejui toliau skleisti Čijunės Sugihara, Jano Zwartendijkos ir kitų diplomatų, gelbėjusių gyvybes Antrojo pasaulinio karo metu, istorijas ir puoselėti tolerancijos bei humanizmo vertybes.„Mūsų virtuvė nėra prašmatni, tai ne triufeliai ir ikrai. Neišsiskiriame tokiu pasididžiavimu kaip italai ar prancūzai“, – sako Arkties virtuvę populiarinantis šefas Per Theodor Tørrissen. Jis šių metų Europos kultūros sostinei, už Šiaurės poliarinio rato esančiai Budei padeda įgyvendinti ambiciją įrašyti Arkties virtuvę į pasaulio kulinarinį žemėlapį.Pasaulio kultūros apžvalgoje – žvilgsnis į duris iš lėto atveriantį didžiausią pasaulyje archeologijos muziejų Egipte, naujai pasirodžiusią informaciją apie Kristupo Kolumbo kilmę bei šią savaitę žuvusį britų muzikos grupės „One Direction“ narį Liamą Payne'ą.„Apie motinas karo metu kalbama atsargiai, pagarbiai ir, kaip ten bebūtų, saikingai. Tikrieji motinų išgyvenimai per karą – tai milžiniškas aisbergo kūnas po vandeniu, nematomas ir nebylus“, – komentare sako rašytoja Dalia Staponkutė.„Tie veikėjai supanašėjo su balandžiais – vis slampinėja, kažko ieško, kaulija“, – apie naujos parodos personažus, įkvėptus Vilniaus stoties rajono, sako tapytojas Andrius Makarevičius.Svarbu, kad Klaipėda nenueitų „popsiniu“ keliu, kas būdinga uostamiesčiui, – apie tokią nerimą keliančią riziką kalba rašytoja, muziejininkė, Vilniuje augusi, tačiau jau keletą dešimtmečių Klaipėdoje gyvenanti ir šio miesto kultūrinį pulsą skatinanti Sondra Simana. Kokius utopinius ir distopinius kultūrinius scenarijus ji piešia Klaipėdai?Ved. ir red. Indrė Kaminckaitė

In 1940, as the Nazis sweep toward Lithuania, Japanese diplomat Chiune Sugihara defies his government and secretly issues visas to fleeing Jewish refugees. After the war, Sugihara is dismissed and disappears into obscurity. Three decades later, in Australia, Rachel Margol is shocked when her engagement reveals a long-held family secret: she is Jewish. As she grapples with this deception and the dysfunction it has caused, unspoken tragedies from the past begin to come to light. When an opportunity arrives to visit Chiune Sugihara, the man who risked his life to save the Margols during World War II, Rachel becomes determined to meet him. But will a journey to Japan, and the secrets it uncovers, heal the family or fracture them for good? In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Linda Margolin Royal about the origins of this story in her own family history, the plight of Jewish refugees in Lithuania in 1940, and the remarkable Japanese diplomat who risked his own life to save others.

The story of Chiune Sugihara has become relatively well known among the Jewish community. The Japanese diplomat, known as "Japan's Schindler", wrote transit visas for thousands of European Jews, helping them flee Nazi persecution and the concentration camps. Among the many families saved by Sugihara visas was the Bluman family, which wound up in Vancouver, B.C.—but the story didn't end there. Even two generations later, the family's trauma still lingered, just as Sugihara's own children and grandchildren suffered from the aftermath of the Second World War. Those cross-generational stories, and their empathetic parallels, form the spine of a new chamber opera, I Have My Mother's Eyes, premiering Nov. 18 at the Chutzpah Festival in Vancouver. The improvised opera, composed by Rita Ueda, will explore the emotional core behind both the Japanese and Jewish families, which has created a unique bond filled with tragedy and hope. And as Ueda tells us on Culturally Jewish, The CJN's arts and culture podcast, to tell an emotional story onstage, there's no better medium than opera. Ueda and George Bluman join to share how they transformed Bluman's remarkable family history into an international opera show. Credits Culturally Jewish is hosted by Ilana Zackon and David Sklar.

It's well known that the Mir Yeshiva collectively and successfully escaped war torn Europe, being stranded first in Kobe, Japan, followed by a long exile in Shanghai, China. While mostly true, there were students who were unable for one reason or another to escape together with the yeshiva, and remained behind being martyred by the Nazis and their collaborators along with millions of their brethren.  One of the prominent ones was Rav Yona Karpilov (Minsker). As a student of Rav Elchanan Wasserman and Rav Baruch Ber Leibowitz, he arrived in Mir in 1926 as a budding scholar, and soon emerged as one of the closest students of the Mir mashgiach Rav Yerucham Levovitz, as well as one of the yeshiva's leaders guiding many of the younger students. He was also part of a contingent who studied in Brisk under Rav Yitzchak Soloveitchik, the Brisker Rav. Many theories have been presented as to why he didn't succeed in obtaining one of the coveted Sugihara visas in the summer of 1940, but ultimately he was in Kovno the following summer and not in Shanghai with his friends. He was murdered by Lithuanian collaborators in 1941.   This episode is sponsored by the OU. Make your Tish B'Av more meaningful with the OU.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.02.24.529790v1?rss=1 Authors: Yamano, K., Sawada, M., Kikuchi, R., Nagataki, K., Kojima, W., Sugihara, A., Fujino, T., Tanaka, K., Hayashi, G., Murakami, H., Matsuda, N. Abstract: Tank-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) is a Ser/Thr kinase involved in many intracellular processes including innate immunity, cell cycle, and apoptosis. TBK1 is also important for phosphorylating autophagy adaptors critical in selective autophagic removal of damaged mitochondria (mitophagy). However, the mechanism by which TBK1 is activated by PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy remains largely unknown. Here, we show that the autophagy adaptor OPTN provides a unique platform for TBK1 activation. The OPTN-ubiquitin and OPTN-autophagy machinery interaction axes facilitate assembly of the OPTN-TBK1 complex at a contact site between damaged mitochondria and the autophagosome formation site. This assembly point serves as a positive feedback loop for TBK1 activation by accelerating hetero-autophosphorylation of the protein. Furthermore, expression of monobodies engineered in this study against OPTN impaired assembly of OPTN at the contact sites as well as the subsequent activation of TBK1 and mitochondrial degradation. Taken together the findings reveal that a positive reciprocal relationship between OPTN and TBK1 initiates autophagosome biogenesis on damaged mitochondria. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Un gran número de judíos buscaron proteger sus vidas escapando de los ataques de la guerra, pero no era fácil huir a otro país para salvarse. Los gobiernos del mundo les cerraron las puertas, negándoles el visado necesario para abandonar Europa. Ante esta negativa, un grupo de judíos refugiados en Lituania, buscaron con desespero la ayuda del cónsul Japonés Chiune-Sempo Sugihara, para que les emitiera visados de tránsito y así poder viajar a territorio nipón. El cónsul japonés buscó la autorización de sus superiores para emitir los visados, pero mientras llegaba la respuesta, decidió empezar a otorgarlos. Tiempo después su solicitud fue oficialmente negada por el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores, pero Sugihara ya había iniciado su propósito y nada lo iba a detener. Fue así como este noble funcionario, decidió desobedecer las órdenes y continuar con el objetivo de salvar la mayor cantidad de vidas posibles. Con el tiempo jugando en contra, y antes de que el consulado fuera clausurado, autorizó aproximadamente 3500 visados de tránsito que beneficiaron a miles de judíos que huían del horror Nazi. Sugihara regresó a Japón, fue despedido del servicio exterior y desde entonces tuvo que mantenerse haciendo trabajos ocasionales. Chiune-Sempo Sugihara fue un rebelde a los ojos de sus superiores, pero a la vez fue un héroe para los judíos, quienes años más tarde le dieron el honor de ser recordado como Justo de las Naciones.

D., Narantsatsral, J., Matsuda, K., Sugihara, T., Shimizu, T., Koyanagi, M., Terakita, A., Hibi, M. Abstract: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) transmit extracellular signals into the cell depending on the type of G protein. To analyze the functions of GPCR signaling, we developed optogenetic tools using animal G protein-coupled bistable rhodopsins that can be controlled into active and inactive states by light irradiation. We expressed Gq- and Gi/o-coupled bistable rhodopsins in hindbrain reticulospinal V2a neurons, which are involved in locomotion, or in cardiomyocytes of zebrafish. Light stimulation of the reticulospinal V2a neurons expressing Gq-coupled spider Rh1 resulted in an increase in the level of cytoplasmic Ca2+ and evoked swimming behavior. Light stimulation of cardiomyocytes expressing the Gi/o-coupled mosquito Opn3, pufferfish TMT opsin, or lamprey parapinopsin induced cardiac arrest, and the effect was suppressed by treatment with pertussis toxin or barium, suggesting that Gi/o-dependent regulation of inwardrectifier K+ channels controls cardiac function. These data indicate that these rhodopsins are useful for optogenetic control of GPCR-mediated signaling in neurons and cardiomyocytes in vivo. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Pave is on a mission to improve access to credit for millions of people by building the world's best credit builder. They already have close to 500,000 registered users and are helping their members improve their credit health. But I wanted to learn more about the company's story, and this is where things got interesting. Co-Founder and CEO Sho Sugihara spent the first half of his life in Japan. He started his career working for The Big Issue to help the homeless by delivering magazines to newspaper vendors. Then, at 18, he went to Brazil to work for an NGO, helping underprivileged families keep their children in school through a state-sponsored microfinance and daycare program. These experiences opened his eyes to the power of financial inclusion. After university, he worked at McKinsey for three years to save up cash to finally start his own business before leaving to co-found Pave out of Entrepreneur First in 2017. Fast forward to 2022, we're seeing extreme income volatility and an unprecedented surge in energy prices and living costs. In times like these, Sho believes there are new opportunities to help consumers and businesses. As a result, they launched Fuse, a credit analytics B2B service that helps businesses make better lending decisions using our state-of-the-art analytics capabilities. Combining Open Banking data, Credit File data, and tangible outcomes data, the company can help enterprises to make the best affordability decisions with powerful insights. I invited Sho on the podcast to share his inspiring story and how it led to two products aimed at helping Pave solve the inefficiencies they see in the credit system faster and at a critical time.

His experience in consulting and reading on economic exclusion led him to leave McKinsey in 2017 and co-found fintech firm Pave.

I've recently moved and now I have an electric stovetop, the old-fashioned type that stays hot for ages. When I inevitably place a stray hand on a still-hot plate, it'll take my nerve impulses about 15 milliseconds to reach my brain, add a bit of processing time and allow for the return journey, and in under a fifth of a second, my hand will move away. The process is so fast because the brain wants to give my arm the instructions it needs while it is still useful to do so. Pave takes a similar approach to credit management. Allow me to quickly repurpose that hotplate scenario: if you take an action today that will unknowingly harm your credit profile, it will take the ‘credit nerve impulses' two to three months to reach the credit bureau, another month for the impact of that action to be reflected in your credit score for the first time, another couple of months to notice the downward trend, and then more time for you to investigate the true cause - so maybe six months. That's not fast enough to be useful, because even if you make a complete u-turn, you'll have six months of negative impact still in the bank, as it were. So for the next sixth months, you'll just have to trust that the compromises you're making are paying off. That takes a lot of discipline. And it is worse than that because most of us have to follow a trial-and-error approach to credit building, so for many they'll make the right change, see no impact, and try something else. Sho Sugihara built Pave to try and fix this, providing credit feedback fast enough to influence outcomes, supported by human credit experts that remove the guesswork, and credit products that actively stop you missing a bill payment. Join us to learn more about the hows and whys. You can learn more about Pave at https://www.paveapp.com/ (you'll find a link for potential partners there, too, while their quite excellent blog is at https://www.paveapp.com/blog) Or if you prefer the big social media platforms, they'll be at LinkedIn / Instagram / Facebook / Twitter And if you want to speak to Sho directly, you can find him on LinkedIn or email him at sho@paveapp.com If your heartstrings were tugged, you can learn about The Big Issue here, while if it was your ambition that got all riled up, you can find Entrepreneur First here Or if it is me you're after, you can find me on my LinkedIn page (feel free to connect), and my action-adventure novels on Amazon, some versions even for free.

In this episode, Rob looks at how to achieve a good credit score, which makes securing the finance you need to buy property a lot cheaper and easier. To do this he speaks to Sho Sugihara who is the co-founder and CEO of PAVE. He is an award-winning app provider that empowers people to improve their current and future financial situation. Doing so by building a better credit score and managing their finances proactively.   They cover what a credit score is, the impact it has on your ability to borrow money, and how to improve yours. Sho shares examples of simple things people do that destroys their credit score. For example, maxing out their student credit card. He explains how PAVE provides its customers with ongoing, tailored guidance and support to enable them to improve their credit scores, manage their finances, and avoid expensive debt.     KEY TAKEAWAYS Typically, the higher your credit score is the easier and cheaper it will be for you to borrow money. The three major credit bureaus in the UK use different factors to determine your score. In the episode, Sho explains what those factors are. Most people are unaware of the negative long-term ramifications of simple things like missing a credit card payment. Lenders typically look at scores from all three credit bureaus, so you need a good score with them all. It is vital to understand the impact of using too much of the credit you have available to you. Maxing out credit cards can be damaging. CCJs and IBAs can easily take 200 to 300 points off your score. Even if you rent and move a lot, register to vote every single time. Be especially careful with shared bills and joint accounts. Lowering credit utilization before applying for a mortgage can save you money. Always pay on time. The PAVE app is different from other products. It is particularly helpful for people who are not typical citizens e.g., self-employed, returning ex-pats, or immigrants. PAVE only lends to people in situations that improve their credit score.   BEST MOMENTS ‘At the moment, about 15 to 20% of the adult population can end up having an insufficient credit history.' ‘The better the credit score, the better the rate (interest).' ‘Missing a broadband payment is one of the top three reasons someone damages their credit file.'     ABOUT THE HOST Rob Smallbone the host of The Property Nomads Podcast, is on a global mission to guide your success.

Essentiel – Le rendez-vous culture de RCJ – présenté les lundis par Sandrine Sebbane qui reçoit Laurence Couquiaud auteure du roman « Visa pour l'éternité » paru chez Albin Michel qui parle de Chiune Sugihara, ce consul japonais qui a sauvé des milliers de juifs en 1940 Et Stéphane OLIVIE-BISSON pour parler de sa pièce « Douce-France » au théâtre Tristan Bernard Et Steeve Suissa pour le Festival de théâtre Français en Israël À propos du livre : "Visa pour l'éternité" Paru aux édition Albin Michel En 1939, Ewa fuit la Pologne envahie pour trouver asile en Lituanie. Leib, médecin, a assisté impuissant à l'anéantissement de Varsovie. Dans ce petit état balte, les réfugiés juifs tentent de reconstruire leur vie. Mais la menace d'une invasion plane et il faut repartir. Toutes les ambassades ont fermé leurs portes. Sauf une : celle du Japon, où le consul Sugihara, agent de renseignement et diplomate, délivre des visas. Ewa, Leib et leurs amis du groupe des écrivains yiddishs doivent affronter les officiers de sécurité russes et la menace du goulag avant de pouvoir traverser le continent et la mer jusqu'au Pays du Soleil Levant. De là, destination Shangai, alors sous contrôle japonais, où, dans un ghetto sordide, ils survivent en espérant la libération et une nouvelle terre d'accueil... À travers cette incroyable odyssée fondée sur des faits réels, le roman de Laurence Couquiaud, l'auteure de La Mémoire sous les vagues (Prix Femme actuelle) dévoile un pan ignoré de l'exil d'une partie de la communauté juive en Asie, évoquant la violence du déracinement mais aussi l'entraide aux confins du monde, ainsi qu'une poignante histoire d'amour, de résilience et d'émancipation. En toile de fond, le portrait du « Schindler japonais », Chiune Sugihara, qui paya cher son geste généreux. Laurence Couquiaud est une globe-trotteuse qui a exploré dans ses vies professionnelles l'architecture marine, la céramique et l'écriture. Passionnée par la mer, elle se spécialise dans l'étude de l'environnement des cétacés en Asie. En 2006 elle remise ses palmes pour se consacrer au modelage de la terre. Mais le tsunami du 11 mars 2011 et la catastrophe de Fukushima l'incitent à prendre la plume pour partager son attachement au Japon où elle a vécu. Ce premier roman, "La mémoire sous les vagues", reçoit en 2016 le Prix Femme Actuelle, puis le Prix du roman au salon de Cosne-sur-Loire en 2017 et en 2019 le Prix du Café Littéraire Gourmand. En 2018, elle publie chez Magellan & Cie "Les calanques", puis "Artemisia, une plante pour éradiquer le paludisme", en collaboration avec le Dr. Lucile Cornet-Vernet, chez Actes Sud. En 2019 est sorti "L'échappée douce", aux éditions Mazarine. "Visa pour l'éternité", son nouveau roman paraît en septembre 2021 chez Albin Michel. À propos de la Pièce : "Douce France" Théâtre Tristan Bernard, Paris Un voyage drôle et mouvementé au coeur du pouvoir ! Que retiendra-t-on de la Vème République ? Est-ce qu'un homme providentiel ça existe ? Si vous aviez du pouvoir, beaucoup de pouvoir, quel type d'homme ou de femme seriez-vous ? De de Gaulle à Macron, en passant par Pompidou, Giscard d'Estaing, Mitterrand, Chirac, Sarkozy et Hollande, " Douce France " est une fantaisie satirique qui s'inspire de faits historiques vérifiés et recoupés. Cette traversée, nous la commençons en 1966 sous Charles de Gaulle en compagnie de deux conseillers spéciaux du Président sur lesquels le temps ne semble pas avoir de prise. Les règnes se succèdent et eux ne bougent pas. Les Présidents sont les trains, eux sont la gare. Durée du spectacle : 55 ans.

Today's Yom Kippur. I don't have any school so thank Jews! Get it, thank "Jews" instead of thank "you". I'M sUcH A COmEdick GeNiUS.

Seorang diplomat Jepang yang berada di Lithuania di masa perang dunia telah melakukan tindakan berani dengan penuh resiko untuk menyelamatkan ribuan orang Yahudi yang saat itu sedang diburu oleh tentara Nazi Jerman pimpinan Adolf Hitler.

Eighty years ago this summer, in July 1941, Nate and Susan Bluman stepped off a boat in Vancouver's port. It had been a perilous journey for the young Jewish couple, who'd escaped from German-occupied Poland to Lithuania, which was then occupied by the Russians. From there, they received transit visas thanks to a Japanese diplomat named Chiune Sugihara. Sugihara is often referred to as the "Japanese Schindler." He helped more than 2,000 Jews escape Europe, via Vladivostok and Japan, during the early years of the Second World War. In doing so, Sugihara, who was helped by his wife, disobeyed orders from Tokyo—and he never spoke publicly about his actions until the 1980s. Since then, the Sugiharas have been celebrated by the global Jewish community and regarded as righteous gentiles by Yad Vashem. He's been the focus of films, books, commemorative gardens and statues. This week, the Japanese department store Takashimaya is mounting a special travelling exhibit to showcase Sugihara and the descendents of those he saved. One of those descendents is George Bluman, son of Nate and Susan. George joins today to share his family's story, explain why he lent his father's visa to the new exhibit and argue why Sugihara's name should be better known than it is.

We are running out of young people in Japan.  Covid has slowed down some major structural changes which must happen.  The implications of staff shortages are dynamic for Japan.  Let's explore some of these in today's show.   There is a great Simon Sinek video floating around about how companies say employees are important, but don't really act like it.  He lines up the typical CEO hit list of growth, shareholder value, customers and in fourth place, employees.  He notes that even if you elevate customers to number one, employees still come in second in importance.  Richard Branson is also a powerful advocate for putting employees first before all else.  It makes sense.  We want motivated, enthusiastic staff engaging with our customers and going the extra mile.   In many ways, Japan has long had a different order to Anglo-Saxon corporate philosophy.  Workers first, then customers and shareholders last.  Can we learn anything from Japan's corporate traditions on how to put workers first?   This system worked fine in an environment of lifetime employment, low growth protected by interlocking shareholdings and price fixing through the dango or cartel system.  The foreign ownership of Japanese company shares and the expansion of so many businesses outside of japan has changed things and put more pressure on showing revenue returns.  The customer has remained a constant in all of this change though, because culturally, the buyers have very high expectations that must be met. We can't rely on importing the Japanese nenkojoretsu system of steady escalator career advancement based on seniority and age.  Many Japanese companies still have this system, but today talent is in short supply.  In a global economy, awash with disruptive and competitive technologies, waiting for the best and brightest to become older in order to be given their leadership shot is an opportunity cost you don't want to pay.    These old style Japanese companies often still focus on OJT (on the job training) and technical training alone, for developing the talent base of their people.  That is a slow burn into oblivion, when your competitors are laser focused on quality world class training to improve their people's performance.    Technology makes such a big difference today.  President Sugihara of Oracle Japan made the point in a speech to the American Chamber, that rather than thinking  that technological efficiencies will cause people to lose jobs, it will instead increase the productivity of the whole existing workforce.   In the past, with a worker surplus, there was no company impetus to work hard to keep people.  Japanese risk aversion preferences also kept people in jobs they didn't really enjoy, because they were scared of having no job and of having a tough time finding a new one.  Mid-career entry rarely occurred in the bigger firms.    After the Lehman Shock, Japanese companies moved to creating a lower risk work environment by employing more and more people part-time.  The thinking was, if the economy tanks again, it will be easier to fire these part-timers than regular employees.  This was seen as a positive, a stable buffer against future unknowns.   The economics of this has led to a decline in consumer spending, the inability of part-time working men to find wives and start families or move into better paying work.  The Japanese government was stepping in to force companies to change.  They are looking to end the discrimination between the wages and conditions of permanent and non-permanent staff, restrict the use of fixed term contracts and prevent successive renewals of fixed term contracts.  In other words, remove the labor liquidity attraction of using part-time workers in preference to full time staff.  Covid has put all of this on hold, but it will start again because it has to.   The demographics of less and less young people coming into the workforce will mean labor shortages.  Women re-entering the workforce and older workers continuing on working will be preferred to the perceived social disruption of having immigrants come in substantial numbers.  The uninvited mass migrations to European countries are seen as a negative example by most Japanese and will make the whole immigration argument harder to promote.   Retaining staff will become harder.  Recruiters will have a field day, searching for talent to lift them out of their current firm and place them elsewhere.  Automatically, this worker shortage will swing the pendulum to placing workers first above shareholder value and customers.  However, we are not going back to the cushy old days of “who cares about shareholder value and corporate performance”, but people will be again at the forefront of company business plans.    Do we have a middle management skillset able to retain our most talented people?  Have we replaced the elevation by age and stage with performance evaluations which identify, inspire and mobilise the talent. Do we have the right training in place which will actually lift staff productivity.  The soft skills are where the big gains will come from, as we better lead our teams, engage them, motivate them and keep them.  This time around, the workers can more easily vote with their feet and leave.  Are we ready for the revolution?

The Great Escape covers the escape of the students and teachers of the Mir Yeshiva from eastern Europe to Shanghai as they escape the Nazis. This is episode 1.

Join my conversation with Linda to hear about her father and paternal grandparents' escape story from Lithuania, by benefiting from the Chiune Sugihara's visa.Chiune Sugihara was a Japanese diplomat who was stationed in Lithuania during WW2. Sugihara helped thousands of Jews flee Europe by ignoring his orders and issuing thousands of transit visas to Japan, all while risking his job and the lives of his family.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.10.19.346080v1?rss=1 Authors: Lorimer, T., Goodridge, R., Bock, A. K., Agarwal, V., Saberski, E., Sugihara, G., Rifkin, S. A. Abstract: Automated analysis of video can now generate extensive time series of pose and motion in freely-moving organisms. This requires new quantitative tools to characterise behavioural dynamics. For the model roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans, body pose can be accurately quantified from video as coordinates in a single low-dimensional space. We focus on this well-established case as an illustrative example and propose a method to reveal subtle variations in behaviour at high time resolution. Our data-driven method, based on empirical dynamic modeling, quantifies behavioural change as prediction error with respect to a time-delay-embedded `attractor' of behavioural dynamics. Because this attractor is constructed from a user-specified reference data set, the approach can be tailored to specific behaviours of interest at the individual or group level. We validate the approach by detecting small changes in the movement dynamics of C. elegans at the initiation and completion of delta turns. We then examine an escape response initiated by an aversive stimulus and find that the method can track return to baseline behaviour in individual worms and reveal variations in the escape response between worms. We suggest that this general approach -- defining dynamic behaviours using reference attractors and quantifying dynamic changes using prediction error -- may be of broad interest and relevance to behavioural researchers working with video-derived time series.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.08.24.213447v1?rss=1 Authors: Yamaguchi, H., Hashimoto, Y., Sugihara, G., Miyata, J., Murai, T., Takahashi, H., Honda, M., Hishimoto, A., Yamashita, Y. Abstract: There has been increasing interest in performing psychiatric brain imaging studies using deep learning. However, most studies in this field disregard three-dimensional (3D) spatial information and targeted disease discrimination, without considering the genetic and clinical heterogeneity of psychiatric disorders. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a 3D convolutional autoencoder (CAE) for extracting features related to psychiatric disorders without diagnostic labels. The network was trained using a Kyoto University dataset including 82 patients with schizophrenia (SZ) and 90 healthy subjects (HS), and was evaluated using Center for Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) datasets including 71 SZ patients and 71 HS. The proposed 3D-CAEs were successfully reconstructed into high-resolution 3D structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans with sufficiently low errors. In addition, the features extracted using 3D-CAE retained the relevant clinical information. We explored the appropriate hyper parameter range of 3D-CAE, and it was suggested that a model with eight convolution layers might be relevant to extract features for predicting the dose of medication and symptom severity in schizophrenia.

Ten years ago, Baggu made eco-friendly shopping stylish. Their reusable nylon take on the disposable plastic grocery bag is strikingly simple, with new patterns every season. Founder Emily Sugihara says that working within the constraints of simplicity and affordability is where Baggu really flourishes. On this episode of the podcast, Emily talks about designing for herself, investing in great photography, understanding the manufacturing process, the influence of Japanese culture, and thinking beyond the zeitgeist.

Employees As Number One   There is a great Simon Sinek video floating around about how companies say employees are important, but don't really act like it. He lines up the typical CEO hit list of growth, shareholder value, customers and in fourth place, employees. He notes that even if you elevate customers to number one, employees still come in second in importance. Richard Branson is also a powerful advocate for putting employees first before all else. It makes sense. We want motivated, enthusiastic staff engaging with our customers and going the extra mile.   In many ways, Japan has long had a different order to Anglo-Saxon corporate philosophy. Workers first, then customers and shareholders last. Can we learn anything from Japan's corporate traditions on how to put workers first?   This system worked fine in an environment of lifetime employment, low growth protected by interlocking shareholdings and price fixing through the dango or cartel system. The foreign ownership of Japanese company shares and the expansion of so many businesses outside of japan has changed things and put more pressure on showing revenue returns. The customer has remained a constant in all of this change though, because culturally, the buyers have very high expectations that must be met.   Escalator System Won't Work We can't rely on importing the Japanese nenkojoretsu system of steady escalator career advancement based on seniority and age. Many Japanese companies still have this system, but today talent is in short supply. In a global economy, awash with disruptive and competitive technologies, waiting for the best and brightest to become older in order to be given their leadership shot is an opportunity cost you don't want to pay.   These old style Japanese companies often still focus on OJT (on the job training) and technical training alone, for developing the talent base of their people. That is a slow burn into oblivion, when your competitors are laser focused on quality world class training to improve their people's performance.   Technology makes such a big difference today. President Sugihara of Oracle Japan made the point recently in a speech to the American Chamber, that rather than thinking that technological efficiencies will cause people to lose jobs, it will instead increase the productivity of the whole existing workforce.   In the past, with a worker surplus, there was no company impetus to work hard to keep people. Japanese risk aversion preferences also kept people in jobs they didn't really enjoy, because they were scared of having no job and of having a tough time finding a new one. Mid-career entry rarely occurred in the bigger firms.   After the Lehman Shock, Japanese companies moved to creating a lower risk work environment by employing more and more people part-time. The thinking was, if the economy tanks again, it will be easier to fire these part-timers than regular employees. This was seen as a positive, a stable buffer against future unknowns.   Abenomics Intervenion The economics of this has led to a decline in consumer spending, the inability of part-time working men to find wives and start families or move into better paying work. The Abe government is stepping in to force companies to change. They are looking to end the discrimination between the wages and conditions of permanent and non-permanent staff, restrict the use of fixed term contracts and prevent successive renewals of fixed term contracts. In other words, remove the labor liquidity attraction of using part-time workers in preference to full time staff.   The demographics of less and less young people coming into the workforce will mean labor shortages. Women re-entering the workforce and older workers continuing on working will be preferred to the perceived social disruption of having immigrants come in substantial numbers. The current mass migration to European countries will be seen as a negative example by most Japanese and will make the whole immigration argument harder to promote.   Retaining staff will become harder. Recruiters will have a field day, searching for talent to lift them out of their current firm and place them elsewhere. Automatically, this worker shortage will swing the pendulum to placing workers first above shareholder value and customers. However, we are not going back to the cushy old days of “who cares about shareholder value and corporate performance”, but people will be again at the forefront of company business plans.   Do we have a middle management skillset able to retain our most talented people? Have we replaced the elevation by age and stage with performance evaluations which identify, inspire and mobilise the talent. Do we have the right training in place which will actually lift staff productivity. The soft skills are where the big gains will come from, as we better lead our teams, engage them, motivate them and keep them. This time around, the workers can more easily vote with their feet and leave. Are we ready for the revolution?   Engaged employees are self-motivated. The self-motivated are inspired. Inspired staff grow your business but are you inspiring them? We teach leaders and organisations how to inspire their people. Want to know how we do that?

When the Nazis began massacring European Jews, an unlikely man defied his government in order to save as many of them as possible: Chiune Sugihara, the Japanese diplomat stationed in Eastern Europe. Mr. Sugihara's bravery and altruism ended up saving the life of some 6,000 people. One of those was a 7-year-old boy who grew up to become Mr. Leo Melamed. Today, Mr. Melamed is regarded as the most important financial innovator in the second half of the 20th century. But none of his remarkable accomplishments would have been possible had it not been for the courage of Sugihara. In this episode, Mr. Melamed tells The Sun Also Rises his astounding story—the story of Sugihara's stand.

There are all different kinds of songs. Some are cute and bouncy. Some are dark and moody. I think that some of the most touching songs are songs that reveal some weakness, tell a story, or say something personal. These songs say something honest, and gritty honesty has more value to me, I think, than all the airbrushed glamour of Hollywood. In this episode, I have five songs for you that I think say something honest. The songs are "Back Off" by The Bionic Rats, "Radio Silence" by Gregory Michael Davis, "Tampa" by The Hicks Canyon Band, "Vengeance On My Mind" by Felix Hagan and the Family, and "Sugihara" by David Rovics.

This week we're going to be taking another break from the forward march of history to discuss the life of a man named Sugihara Chiune. Sugihara worked as a bureaucrat in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs prior to World War II, and in 1940 he gave up his career in order to save thousands of Jewish refugees from the Nazis. We'l discuss who Sugihara was, what he did, why he did it, and why I think he's worth remembering.
