A scientist who is really exploring the unknown has no idea where the research is going. That makes it difficult to predict. . .But, on the other hand scientists who are actually exploring the unknown are very rare. Most prefer to take whatever mission the NIH proposes and write their grants accordingly. Dr. Ponzy Lu, Biochemist. Quoted in: Kolata G. Scientists fluff the answer to a billion-dollar question.

Travel Restriction

The primary purpose of this study is to carry out and present an Appraisal analysis of the discourse of two reports published in the New York Times and the Washington Post newspapers. The specific objective is to identify and analyze the main attitudinal resources employed by the report’s authors to construe and negotiate feelings with their audiences about the Muslim ban incident that was implemented during Trump’s presidency of the United States. Moreover, the study explores the ideological differences from an Appraisal perspective about the travel ban between the selected newspapers. The study revealed that Appreciation resources were used more than other resources in the Washington Post, and the majority of them were addressing the travel restriction. On the other hand, the New York Times report made extensive use of both Judgment and Appreciation resources. In addition, all attitudes in the texts predicted ideological differences, but the Appreciation resources were the most critical predictor of ideological differences between them. This research reveals then which attitudes are more likely to reveal ideological differences.

I Approach my topic—the development of the modern Japanese political cartoon—with some trepidation. Humor is a fragile product that can easily be damaged by academic scrutiny. As Evelyn Waugh once remarked, analyzing humor is like dissecting a frog—much is learned but in the end the frog is dead. Waugh was right. Most analyses of humor cannot be read for amusement. On the other hand, why should they be? If Shakespeare scholars are not expected to write in iambic pentameter, why should students of humor be expected to keep their readers in stitches? As the editor of the International Journal of Humor Studies recently told a reporter, “We are not in the business of being funny” (New York Times, 19 December 2000).

The Impact

This article examines the impact of augmented reality (AR) visualizations on users’ sense of physical presence, knowledge gain, and perceptions of the authenticity of journalistic visuals. In a mixed experimental design, 79 participants were randomly assigned to view three The New York Times articles on a mobile phone featuring one of three viewing modalities: (1) AR visualizations, (2) interactive (non-AR) visualizations, or (3) non-interactive, static visualizations. AR induced a greater sense of physical presence compared to the other modalities. The findings suggest that immersive properties of AR can contribute to journalism’s goal of engaging the audience. However, AR was not a superior medium for informing the participants, and the viewing modality did not have an effect on the perceived authenticity of the visuals. The findings indicate a need for more efficient ways to relay information through journalistic AR visualizations while keeping the user engaged in an immersive experience.

History Of

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AFTER ITS FIRST RELEASE in New York on 20th December 1971, Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange, adapted from the 1962 novel by Anthony Burgess, has acquired a prominent place in the history of cinema. However, at the time of its release, it generated much controversy and was heavily criticised in its artistic, political and social dimensions. A New York Times reviewer called it "a marvelously executed, sensationalist, confused and finally corrupt piece of pop trivia, signifying nothing."(1) Next, Fred M. Hechinger, an American liberal, accused the film of promoting fascist ideology.(2) In March 1972, the Detroit News refused to give advertising and publicity space to X-rated films, judging them to be of "pornographic nature" and instituted its policy with A Clockwork Orange.(3) On the other hand, the film was also nominated for four 1971 Academy Awards and it received the 1971 New York Film...

The Revolution

As a poetry lover, I have noticed that poetry has become more accessible nowadays than ever. With the revolution of social media, I need only a smartphone to fulfill my poetry reading desire. Platforms such as Instagram and Twitter on top of the other platforms help me to read vast range of poetic texts by multiple poets. Posting poetry on Instagram is known as ‘instapoetry’. Rupi Kaur is considered the pioneer of this literary activism, having than 3.5 million followers on Instagram. Kaur has published two books which remained on the New York Times bestselling list for more than a year. Kaur's debut book also has been translated into more than 30 languages. Interestingly, no Arabic translation has yet been made of either of her books. Therefore, I have translated some of her poems into Arabic.

Domestic Relations

In a review for The New York Times, Amor Towles writes that Manhattan Beach “is far less interested in domestic relationships than in those of the workplace.” I would submit that Manhattan Beach is in fact suffused with domestic relations and that many of those relations are structured by disability plots. A few of those plot strands are so clichéd that you can hardly believe their prominence in this contemporary novel. But another cluster of the novel's disability motifs spins a fabric so inventive and rich that you begin to suspect Egan of deploying the other, shopworn plots chiefly to authenticate the novel's mid-century ethos, to evoke a moment when the American public tended to perceive disability as hopeless, or tragic, or repulsive. In what follows I extricate from the novel's broader historical concerns three of these related disability plots. I begin with an account of the disability-as-melodrama plot and then move to an analysis of the plotlines associated with novel's diffuse treatment of disability's generative powers. I close with a reading of the problematic plot that relies on what disability scholars call the “curative imaginary.” My aim here is to illustrate Egan's contrapuntal disability aesthetics.

AbstractThe first purpose of this study is to describe a project focused on comparing the numbers of COVID-19 cases and deaths in the United States reported by four different online trackers, namely, those maintained by USAFacts, the New York Times, Johns Hopkins University, and the COVID Tracking Project. The second purpose of this study is to present results from the first five months of 2020 (January 22-May 31, 2020). This project is ongoing, so it will be updated regularly as new data from each of these trackers become available. Based on the time period included, the NYT has reported more cases than any of the other three trackers since late March/early April, and COVID Tracking Project has reported fewer deaths than any of the other three trackers since mid-March. It is hoped that the discrepancies identified by this project will provide avenues for research on their causes.

The death of Hattie Alexander, on June 24 last, took from pediatrics one of its most loyal and effective participants. Her skill as a clinician and as an investigator of communicable disease won her wide recognition which need not be detailed here, except to recall that she was the first woman to be elected president of the American Pediatric Society. Two striking aspects of her personality should he mentioned, however, for they have been overlooked by the obituary notices I have seen thus far, including the admirable tribute published in the New York Times of June 25. One is her scientific objectivity, the other, her courage.
