| banquet welcome speech: Joan Garry's Guide to Nonprofit Leadership Joan Garry, 2017-02-28 Nonprofit leadership is messy Nonprofits leaders are optimistic by nature. They believe with time, energy, smarts, strategy and sheer will, they can change the world. But as staff or board leader, you know nonprofits present unique challenges. Too many cooks, not enough money, an abundance of passion. It’s enough to make you feel overwhelmed and alone. The people you help need you to be successful. But there are so many obstacles: a micromanaging board that doesn’t understand its true role; insufficient fundraising and donors who make unreasonable demands; unclear and inconsistent messaging and marketing; a leader who’s a star in her sector but a difficult boss... And yet, many nonprofits do thrive. Joan Garry’s Guide to Nonprofit Leadership will show you how to do just that. Funny, honest, intensely actionable, and based on her decades of experience, this is the book Joan Garry wishes she had when she led GLAAD out of a financial crisis in 1997. Joan will teach you how to: Build a powerhouse board Create an impressive and sustainable fundraising program Become seen as a ‘workplace of choice’ Be a compelling public face of your nonprofit This book will renew your passion for your mission and organization, and help you make a bigger difference in the world. |

| banquet welcome speech: Renaissance Food from Rabelais to Shakespeare Joan Fitzpatrick, 2010 Providing a unique perspective on a fascinating aspect of early modern culture, this volume focuses on the role of food and diet as represented in the works of a range of European authors, including Shakespeare, from the late medieval period to the mid seventeenth century. The volume is divided into several sections, the first of which is Eating in Early Modern Europe; contributors consider cultural formations and cultural contexts for early modern attitudes to food and diet, moving from the more general consideration of European and English manners to the particular consideration of historical attitudes toward specific foodstuffs. The second section is Early Modern Cookbooks and Recipes, which takes readers into the kitchen and considers the development of the cultural artifact we now recognize as the cookbook, how early modern recipes might work today, and whether cookery books specifically aimed at women might have shaped domestic creativity. Part Three, Food and Feeding in Early Modern Literature offers analysis of the engagement with food and feeding in key literary European and English texts from the early sixteenth to the early seventeenth century: Franðcois Rabelais's Quart livre, Shakespeare's plays, and seventeenth-century dramatic prologues. The essays included in this collection are international and interdisciplinary in their approach; they incorporate the perspectives of historians, cultural commentators, and literary critics who are leaders in the field of food and diet in early modern culture. |

| banquet welcome speech: The Politicisation of Sport in Modern China Fan Hong, Lu Zhouxiang, 2015-07-16 The Politicisation of Sport in Modern China: Communist and Champions is the first book in English which examines in chronological order key issues in sport in the People's Republic of China from 1949 to 2012 in the context of Chinese history, politics and society. It explores the complexity of Chinese sport including the sovietisation of Chinese sports policy and practice; the emergence of the ‘two Chinas’ issue; the Cold War, the Cultural Revolution, sports diplomacy and sports militarism; China’s turbulent journey of participation in the Asian Games and in the Olympics; the politics and policy of doping and anti-doping in Chinese sport; and China’s sport in the post-Beijing Olympics era. By analysing the relationships between sport, diplomacy, politics and social transformation in China, the book examines how sport has played an important role in China’s rise in the 20th and 21st centuries, and how China embraced the Olympic Movement and also influenced the world through the Olympic Games. Featuring major events, original documents and interviews with a wide breadth of insiders - from sports policy makers, Olympic medallists and ordinary Chinese - this book, for the first time, provides a comprehensive guide to the history of sport in the People's Republic of China. It is a fascinating book for academic researchers, general readers and students. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport. |

| banquet welcome speech: The Art of Communication Gao Wenfei, Many people have a misunderstanding about social interaction, thinking that being able to speak means being able to communicate. In fact, the strength of communication ability is not determined by how well you can speak, but by whether you can say it just right, so that people can admire and feel comfortable, and so that people can accept it with conviction. Being able to speak, opening the chatterbox and not being able to shut it off, and speaking fluently and endlessly, is not necessarily useful. People who really know how to communicate may not say much, but every word is like gold, touching the other person's heart, and they can easily get the results they want. This is the art of communication with high emotional intelligence. |

| banquet welcome speech: India’s Southeast Asia Policy during the Cold War Tridib Chakraborti, Mohor Chakraborty, 2023-02-10 Over the course of four decades of the Cold War, Chakraborti and Chakraborty analyse India’s path from nonalignment towards realism and self-assertion, and finally to confidence-building and interdependence with respect to their neighbours in Southeast Asia. What were the reasons for India’s shift from non-alignment to a more pragmatic approach to foreign relations in its relationships with both the non-Communist states of ASEAN and the Communist States of Indochina? How was this shift perceived by those countries? To what degree were Pakistan’s foreign and defence policies responsible for India’s changes in alignment throughout the Cold War? What lessons can we draw from these events, as the Indo-Pacific is again becoming a major arena of great power rivalry? In order to address these questions, Chakraborti and Chakraborty study the development of India’s foreign and security policies throughout the period, tracking the changes of stances between and within administrations. They evaluate how these decisions were driven by a combination of ideology, pragmatism and changes in priorities as the regional architecture developed over time. A valuable read for scholars and students of India’s foreign relations and of Indo-Pacific geopolitics more broadly. |

| banquet welcome speech: IUTAM Symposium on Nonlinearity and Stochastic Structural Dynamics S Gummadi, R.N. Iyengar, 2012-12-06 Nonlinearity and stochastic structural dynamics is of common interest to engineers and applied scientists belonging to many disciplines. Recent research in this area has been concentrated on the response and stability of nonlinear mechanical and structural systems subjected to random escitation. Simultaneously the focus of research has also been directed towards understanding intrinsic nonlinear phenomena like bifurcation and chaos in deterministic systems. These problems demand a high degree of sophistication in the analytical and numerical approaches. At the same time they arise from considerations of nonlinear system response to turbulence, earthquacke, wind, wave and guidancy excitations. The topic thus attracts votaries of both analytical rigour and practical applications. This books gives important and latest developments in the field presenting in a coherent fashion the research findings of leading international groups working in the area of nonlinear random vibration and chaos. |

| banquet welcome speech: Memories of a Ugandan Refugee Jalal Jaffer, 2022-03-14 Forced to flee from one’s homeland with only a few suitcases, most would be bitter. However, Memories of a Ugandan Refugee is a story of gratitude for a country that opened its arms to those needing a safe harbour. Within its pages, Jalal Jaffer tells his story of growing up in Uganda and his dangerous escape from his country with his wife, Shamshad, when they and thousands of other Asians are forcibly expelled by Idi Amin in 1972. Feeling blessed with the “warm embrace” offered them in Canada, Jalal and his wife quickly adapt to their new country and eventually settle in Vancouver. After completing a law degree and being called to the Bar in British Columbia in 1978, Jalal balances his work and family life with service to the Canadian Ismaili Muslim community. Taking on increasing senior leadership roles in the community, Jalal serves two terms as Chairman of the Ismaili Tariqah & Religious Education Board for Canada (ITREB) and is named the Mukhi of Darkhana of Canada in 2002. As he documents the blessings he receives through service, he also captures important history of the growth of Ismaili Muslim institutions both in Canada and internationally. Filled with recollections and anecdotes – some meaningful and some humorous – of fascinating times, events, and people, as well as interesting reflections and moving poetry, Memories of a Ugandan Refugee is ultimately about one man’s journey on this planet as he seeks to live life well and serve family and community. |

| banquet welcome speech: Laws: Rigidity And Dynamics Eliezer Rabinovici, 2024-09-10 Laws: are they a human invention or are they independent and indifferent to our existence? Are they there to be discovered, dictated, and enforced? Are they absolute and rigid, or do they evolve? Are they applicable in some cases and irrelevant in others? A group of multidisciplinary fellows and world-leading mentors from all habitable continents met at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore and the IAS University of Birmingham, UK, to share and challenge their opinions on the subject. The results of their deliberations are to be found in the chapters of this book. The existence, dynamics, and flexibility of laws are analyzed in the arts, economy, engineering, history, philosophy, and science. The role of law in real-life applications such as the historic transformations of laws in South Africa, the construction of dynamic cities within the law, potential insurmountable obstacles to building quantum computers, as well as charting the best route to low or even zero carbon emissions are addressed by the fellows and mentors. The meetings were held within the framework of the Inter-Continental-Academia of the University-Based Institutes of Advanced Studies. The concept is also described in this book. |
