    The Embassy of the Republic of Poland

    cordially invites you to

    an evening with

    Dr. Julian Bussgang

    introducing his new translation of

    yd Polski-onierz Polski (1939-1945)

    Polish Jew-Polish Soldier

    Edited by Hugo Schlesinger and Stanisaw Borkowski

    The booklet yd Polski - onierz Polski (1939-1945) Polish Jew - Polish Soldier was first published in 1945 under

    the direction of Rabbi Nathan Rbner, Jewish chaplain of the 2nd Corps of the Polish Army in Italy.

    The objective of the booklet was to memorialize the valor and brave deeds of Jewish soldiers who fought during

    World War II in the Underground, partisan units and in the Polish Army, both inside Poland and abroad. It alsohonors those who battled in the 1943 Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, in which Jewish

    volunteers joined Polish insurgents.

    The new booklet, published in 2010 by the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw, contains both the original Polish

    text and its English translation by Dr. Julian Bussgang.

    ________________________________________

    Dr. Julian Bussgang was born in 1925 in Lww, Poland, now Lviv, Ukraine. In mid-September 1939 he fled with his

    parents and sister to Romania and then to Palestine. After finishing a Polish refugee high school in Tel Aviv, he

    joined the Polish 2nd Corps and fought in the Italian campaign, including the Battle of Monte Cassino. He came to

    the United States in 1949.

    Bussgang received his B.Sc. from University of London, MSEE from MIT, and Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Harvard

    University. After retirement from the electronics industry, he served in Warsaw and Krakw as a volunteer with

    the American organization IESC (International Executive Service Corps), helping privatize Polish industrial firms.

    Voices on Korea Symposium:

    ROK Inside-out: Korea's Domestic Policies Influence on Asia

    Wednesday, August 17, 1:00-2:00 p.m.

    Join us for a luncheon discussion as KEI holds its first Emerging Voices on Korea Symposium. As part of its continuing

    efforts to highlight new thinkers on Korea, KEI has selected a group of talented students to present and develop their

    research interests. All presenters and papers were recommended by leading Asia professors and selected from an

    international pool. The second session of the symposium will focus on the South Koreas domestic policies and some

    potential impact for its foreign relations.

    South Korea is proud of its development from an aid receiving country to a nation that provides development assistance to

    others. Its economic relationship with the U.S. played an important role in that process.

    Emerging as a modern country and a developed economy, Korea then emphasized reform of its legal system and

    profession. This internal reform combined with its overall national development enhanced Koreas role in the world. Soon

    its national identity, how its people view themselves and their place in the world, became an influential factor in South

    Koreas internal dynamics and also permeates its foreign relations. With the emergence of a rising China, along with

    Koreas historical tensions with Japan, the emanation and evolution of Koreas national identity will be key factors in its

    policy toward Northeast Asia.

    The second part of the symposium features four students working factors influencing South Korean domestic and foreign

    policy who will present their papers, followed by an engaging discussion. We hope you can attend and participate in the

    development of new ideas and emerging voices on Korea.

Bored with paper canvases duringher figure painting and drawing classes, she ventured into painting on people. Human canvasesseemed to magically transform ordinary paint into live art. These images, souvenirs of the enigmaticconversion from being human to being art, allow a voyeuristic glimpse of the momentarymetamorphosis. Adrienne is a graduate of the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, DC. Her workhas been widely exhibited in the Mid Atlantic region including the Corcoran Gallery of Art and theSmithsonians Anacostia Museum. Mills works deal with opening new avenues in the world ofcontemporary photography that include a powerful element of painting and performance. Her modelsare her canvasses and her photographs are her powerful contributions to the dialogue of

    contemporary art.http://figurephotos.com/

    U.S. Debt and the Millennials:

    Is Washington Creating a Lost Generation?

    and

    Matt MitchellMercatus Center

    moderated by

    Dan MitchellCato Institute

    It is a tumultuous time to be a young American. The national debt is accruing at a record

    pace, more than doubling in the past decade to reach $14.6 trillion today, and future

    liabilities threaten to drive government spending even higher. Job growth has been tepid,

    with unemployment persistently over 9 percent. For soon-to-be college graduates and

    early professionals looking to find jobs and plot their futures, many are at a loss for what toexpect and how to move forward.

    How will mounting deficits impact todays young people in the years to come? Some argue

    that government spending is necessary to ensure the future by providing school loans,

    unemployment insurance, infrastructure investments, and other social provisions. Others

    hold that government spending cripples the future due to massive welfare commitments,

    misaligned economic incentives, and polluted market signals.

    Join us to hear from a panel of young wonks and journalists as they discuss the pending

    outlook for Millennials.

    newfound independence in mobility. Nobody just hands us the key to walking. We earn it.

    Each and every one of us, regardless of the social or economical status were born into,

    earns it. Maybe we cant recall how good it felt the day we made it across the living

    room floor on our own two feet, but in life, well have plenty other opportunities to reach

    our rewards as we stumble, fall and fight like hell to get back up.

    As we get older, the falls we take are usually harder, often unexpected, and more difficult

    to recover from. Rather than leave scars on our hands and knees, they leave us bleeding

    emotionally. More importantly, what we do afterward can determine the course of our

    lives moving forward. The work for Joes Fall and Rise examines the fall and the

    moment of self restoration and enlightenment upon picking oneself up, as opposed to

    falling back down and falling apart.

    About the Artist

    :01 represents one second. In times of adversity, it only takes a single second to decideyoure going to pick yourself up and move forward in a positive direction, regardless of

    the circumstances involved. :01 means never give up. Stay the course. Believe in who

    you are. Embrace the next challenge and begin a new chapter.

    Joes art can be found in both public spaces and in galleries. His stenciling technique,

    which he describes as drawing with an Exacto blade, is completely his own, and its

    evidenced within the styling of his works. His cuts are proportionate and clean, yet

    painterly and imperfect. His subject matter varies according to his daily inspirations, from

    large-scale portraits of children recognizing their importance to society and this planetsfuture; to faceless characters that appear at a crossroads somewhere in between victory

    and defeat; to people floating and driftingaway with elation and self restoration; and to

    his more recent textural paintings of ropes and chains, things that Joe finds symbolic of

    strength and unity, rather than restraint and oppression. Regardless of the subject

    matter, Joes adamant about creating socially conscious work that speaks to the times.

    Artists' Statement:

    We are three artists who inspire each other; we have been painting

    together for 8 years. We paint as a way to express ourselves; at the same

    time, we believe we create art that is pleasing to the "eye of the beholder."

    We paint to express our thoughts, feelings, and ideas about the beauty of

    the colorful world around us. We like the observer to visit the places or

    view the objects we paint.

    About the Artists:

    Yolanda Saenz-Atkins was born in Brownsville, Texas. In 1972 she moved to northern

    Virginia and, after receiving a degree in Early Childhood Education at George Mason

    University, began teaching kindergarten/first grade at Kings Park Elementary in Springfield.

    After teaching for 15 years, she retired from the Fairfax County Public Schools. In 2006 she

    found the time to embark on a journey toward developing her love and passion for the arts.

    She found support and guidance when she met Nancy Jung, her art teacher and mentor.

    After three years of studying under Nancy's tutelage, she has developed a creative body ofwork using a variety of techniques-but mostly using her favorite medium, oils. In addition to

    painting and playing with her grandchildren, Yolanda stays active in her community by

    serving as president of the Friends of Pohick Library. She plans to continue her work as an

    artist by exploring and expressing her creativity through her paintings.

    Cindi Kurtz took 2 years off work when her husband was stationed at Wright Patterson Air

    Force Base in Ohio in 1999. She finally had the time to join Brush and Pallette, where she

    learned charcoal , pastels, and watercolor. When she moved back to northern Virginia, she

    started taking oil classes with Nancy Jung in 2002 and has been there ever since! "It truly is

    my therapy!"

    Sabiha Malik has a degree in Arts and a diploma in Interior Decoration and Window

    Display. For the past 15 years she has worked with three international and national

    companies as a visual coordinator. She also has taught art to children at a Montessori

    school. "Nature has always inspired me, and to me the universe is like a huge canvas or

    palette filled with colors. My canvas and colors are my life. When I am working with paint it

    gives me a lot of positive energy and pleasure. I would like to thank my teacher Nancy, who

    makes our thoughts come out in colors instead of words."

    You're invited to meet the artists on Sunday, August 21st, from 2pmto 4pm. Come see their work and learn more about their approach to

    On September 11, 2001, America experienced domestically the single worst terrorist attack any country hassuffered in modern times with the collapse of over 250 building floors, the death of roughly 3,000 people, and

    the economic impact in the tens of billions of dollars. Ten years later, the nation has undergone tremendous

    changes in terms of how we do business on homeland security. Thanks to the PATRIOT Act and similarcounterterrorism tools, at least 41 publicly known terrorist attacks have been foiled since 9/11 that otherwise

    would have resulted in a significant loss of life and property. Despite these successes however, many issuesremain to be addressed if the nation hopes to stay ahead in the war on terrorism and build a healthy homelandsecurity enterprise capable of tacking the threats we face.

    Join us as we outline these issues and the future of the United States homeland security enterprise with the launch

    of The Heritage Foundations report Homeland Security 4.0: A New Agenda for Overcoming Centralization,

    Complacency, and Politics to Enhance Americas Security.
