    1. energy change when a mole of an ionic compound is dissociated into its gaseous ions (an endothermic process with a positive value).

      wouldn't dissociating an ionic compound result in the loss of some potential energy due to ions of like charges being farther apart therefore minimizing the repulsion between them? I know ultimately, transitioning to a gaseous phase is endothermic because the molecules gain kinetic energy, but is the loss of potential energy considered in the born haber cycle?

    2. The first is that the smaller the ion, the greater the lattice energy.

      is this because the smaller the ions, the closer an ion is to another ion of a like charge? or because periodic trends associated with smaller atoms?

    1. our brains change constantlywith learning and experience and that this takes placethroughout our lives

      In fact, we can train our brain as others part of our body. It probably develops and cultivates after overcoming our setbacks

    2. many books written about public speaking are intended for very specific audiences

      very interesting that even the ones publishing these books about public speaking are following the guidelines too! it makes sense but its nice to see that

    3. it continues to be relevant even with the growth of technological means of communicatio

      If anything it is more relevant now, its more of a rare thing to be able to have this ability and people are even more inspires by it then ever before

    1. I decided to quit trying so hard. Apparently—I told myself—the people grading the tests didn't have theslightest clue about what constituted good writing.

      I think this line shows that she lost hope in the grading system and she blames them rather than herself.

    2. Until that time, I loved writing just as much as I loved math

      This shows early confidence and balance skills, and failure shifts her relationship with learning. I like how she is relating writing to math, and it is something she loves, which helps in motivating anyone to keep going.

    1. adjacent signals: lots of startups are already building agent frameworks (LangChain, AutoGPT, CrewAI). Their bottlenecks hint at where research could contribute

      great advice

I read the bulletinsposted on the walls of the school, the clinic, the tribal offices, the post office. I read junk mail. I read auto-repair manuals. I read magazines. I read anythingthat had words and paragraphs. I read with equal parts joy and desperation. I loved those books, but I also knew that love had only one purpose. I was tr

      She uses repetition to show how hard she was trying to break the stereotype that Indian children were supposed to fail.

    2. side. They struggled with basic reading in school but could remember how to singa few dozen powwow song

      Although they were looked at as stupid, they could remember all the songs they were taught throughout their lives. This proves that they were not stupid, they just were not provided the same education as other children.

      This reminds me of my grandmas house growing up, having books everywhere I look.

    4. They refuse and resist. "Books," I say to them. "Books," I say. I throw my weight against their locked doors. The door holds. I am smart. Iam arrogant. I am lucky. I am trying to save our lives.

      This line stands out to me as the author emphasizes the statement, "I am trying to save our lives". This is because Alexie wants to be a role model to students so they don't have to suffer like their parents, who have sacrificed a lot for them to gain access to books or even a proper education.

    5. The Indian kids crowd the classroom. Many are writing their own poems, short stories and novels. They have read my books. They have readmany other books. They look at me with bright eyes and arrogant wonder

      This shows how Alexie becomes the mentor figure, giving others the opportunities he once fought for. Alexie wants people to fight for their education and save their lives.

    6. I refused to fail. I was smart. I was arrogant. I was luck

      This shows the author's determination, and I like how he used pride as a shield against failure and doubt. Also, this shows how the author has a great mindset, wanting to keep going and not letting failure stop him.

    7. I read with equal parts joy and desperation.

      This suggests that books were more than entertainment, but they are also a tool that gives hope and identity. Books help to motivate people to learn and shape their identity.

    8. I learned to read with a Superman comic book

      This shows how literacy can begin in unexpected ways, which connects to how kids today learn through comics, games, and Youtube. Everyone has a way that they are interested in that can develop their brains and help them in life.

    1. We had seen many people coming to the seashore, but they fled when they saw us approaching; several times they stopped and turned around to look at us in great wonderment. We reassured them with various signs, and some of them came up, showing great delight at seeing us and marveling at our clothes, appearance, and our whiteness; they showed us by various signs where we could most easily secure the boat, and offered us some of their food.

      Observation : The travelers stopped at land; they found people who helped them

      Interpretation : The Europeans had anchored at an area of land; and they found native people living there who helped them anchor their boat and shared food as well

      Connection : When someone comes to your house as a guest, you would most likely feed them and tend to them also

      Context : The travelers who were European were stumbled across this piece of land while exploring and discovered North America

      This doesn't help that much. I think we can drop this and add a more valuable bullet instead in this or other projects. Justification: most projects your competitors will create are solo projects, so you're kinda boosting them in comparison because of your statement :)

    1. Old habit: Just grab a standard benchmark (e.g., GLUE, ImageNet, MMLU) and test your method there. Problem today: Those benchmarks might not stress the thing your method is designed for. You’ll conclude your idea “doesn’t work,” when in fact you just used the wrong test.

      important

    2. Now: Large language models are so capable and multi-task that whether a method works depends a lot on which dataset you test it on.

      elaborate on this

    1. the powerful arsenal of intellectual analyses, historical and expository information; allusions, references, metaphors; all of interiority, in fact. But isn’t that everything? you may ask. Why would a writer give up so much, in exchange for the unknown? Precisely because the theater is an adventure

      O: As someone who loves more classical literature, all of those interior details sound like what fleshes out and makes a story great, but I also wouldn't have considered a play lacking of any important parts of storytelling. Therefore I appreciate Oate's description of how a play must instead force the writer to sacrifice devices of prose style to make way for a new style formed by a collaboration between many other artists (actors, directors, sets, etc.); in short an exciting, completely new experience with each performance.

    2. We learn that the text of the play is not the play, still less is the written and published text of the play anything like the theatrical experience, which will vary considerably with individual productions, each production being a complex vision worked up into performance by an individual director-artist in company with individual actor-artists.

      E:I think “the text of the play is not the play” means that reading a play is very different from seeing it performed. The performance depends on the director and actors, so the written words alone don’t show the full experience.

    3. We learn that the text of the play is not the play, still less is the written and published text of the play anything like the theatrical experience, which will vary considerably with individual productions, each production being a complex vision worked up into performance by an individual director-artist in company with individual actor-artists.

      O: Oates said the written play is not the same as seeing it performed. Each production is different because the director and actor bring their own ideas, so the play can feel new every time it is performed.

    1. Some of us can sometimes think that these things aren't that close to home, but they are if we broaden our view, because a leaky faucet in our kitchen, broken radiator in our hallway, those parts of the house that we always say we're going to get to next week, they're devaluing our whole property.

      I found the speaker’s analogy about a leaky faucet especially powerful. It illustrates how small, overlooked issues within our public education system can quietly devalue not just individual student outcomes but the overall health and potential of our society. Just as neglecting small repairs in a home can lower its property value, neglecting the foundational needs of our schools- such as adequate funding, mental health resources, and teacher compensation- undermines the value of public education as a whole. If we, as a nation and especially as educators, begin to advocate more fiercely for equitable resources, livable wages, and meaningful student support systems, we can start to reverse that decline and restore public education as the great equalizer it was always meant to be.

    1. [Pause.] Some nights she wouldhalt, as one frozen by some shudder of the mind, and standstark still till she could move again. But many also were thenights when she paced without pause, up and down, up anddown, before vanishing the way she came. [Pause.] Nosound. [Pause.] None at least to be heard. [Pause.] The sem-blance.

      I feel like this one may be a bit of a reach, but I find that the word "frozen" can have a very different meaning. I very much interpret this monologue as May is a ghost recounting old events or memories. In that, I feel like she may be talking about herself and that she is ". . . frozen by some shudder of the mind . . ." Meaning she is stuck in these events/times. I also think that the words vanishing or without pause are something to note.

    2. Sequel. A littlelater, when she was quite forgotten, she began to- [Pause.]A little later, when as though she had n.everbeen, it neverbeen, she began to walk. [Pause.] At nightfall.

      So, a few things. This is a strand of time. It is saying what comes after, a sequel is something that must happen after the original. As well as that, I also find a strand of voice here too. I feel as though May is repeating the similar voice pattern of her mother. The pauses in her speech semi-mimic her mother's speech which stood out to me.

    3. Amy. [Pause.No louder.1 Amy.[Pause.]Yes, Mother. [Pau~e.]Will you never have done?[Pause.]Will you never have done ... revolving it all?[Pause.]It? [Pause.]It all. [Pause.] In your poor mind.[Pause.]It all. [Pause.]It all.

      I feel a very big binary of presence between these last few lines of this paragraph and the last few lines on page 240. On page 240 it's the mother being present, being actualized or at least like that to May. However, in this paragraph I feel as though this is May/Amy's way of recounting her memories (however fuzzy they may be). The mother is not there; the absent memory is all that remains of her in May/Amy's mind.

    1. & birds about you what do you say to it

      I observed the use of the phrase "birds about you". I am not immediately sure how to interpret this, but it stands out to me as an idiom which I've never heard before. I would presume that he's referring those present in the courtroom as "birds".

    2. Do you think these suffer voluntary or involuntary

      I observe that the person questioning the nurse asked her if she believes the alleged victims were suffering voluntarily or involuntarily. I interpret this as a rhetorical question, as when she states that she can't tell, the questioner states that "everyone can judge".

    3. This a true account of the sume of her examination but by reason of geat noyses by the afflicted & many speakers, many things are pretermitted

      I observe the statement that while the contents of this document describe true occurrences, there were certain minute details that were left out ("pretermitted") due to the nature of the examination in question. My interpretation of this is that it's meant to be a disclaimer for those reading the document, perhaps for legal purposes at the time.

    4. Witchcraft

      I observed the use of the word "Witchcraft", which sticks out as a very strong word choice. my interpretation is that it speaks to the time period, as this was a time when there was still widespread belief in witchcraft as well as witch trials going on in Europe.

    1. e cubic unit cell is the smallest repeating unit when all angles are 90o and all lengths are equal (figure 12.1.b) with each axis being defined by a Cartesian coordinate (x,y,z). Each cubic cell has 8 atoms in each corner of the cube, and that atom is shared with 8 neighboring cells. In the Body Centered Cubic Cell (BCC) there is an additional atom in the center of the cube, and in the face centered cubic cell, an atom is shared between two unit cells along the face. Please watch the YouTube video as this can help a lot.

      explains the structure of cubic unit cells in crystallography. It describes the three types: simple cubic (atoms at each corner), body-centered cubic (BCC, with an extra atom in the center), and face-centered cubic (FCC, with atoms on each face). Each corner atom is shared among eight adjacent cells, and the structure helps define how atoms are arranged in a solid. @belfrob99

    1. Students engaged more withpositively evaluated annotated texts and disengaged from nega-tively annotated texts.

      You can easily give constructive criticism and keep the moral of the write on a high note

    2. Moreover, gi-ven the findings on self-esteem and assessment, there is no guar-antee the effects of annotation will be received positively.

      Students can view annotations as a complete negative and it can effect their moral

    3. Any written feedback processhowever, should be made with a view to transforming problemsto improve the situation for the next time

      All annotations should be written to help the writer. It can be criticism but the goal needs to be to in the end help the student improve their writing.

    4. to atextual interaction where ‘‘the annotator slips in between readerand text with a note”

      annotations are like having a conversation between the writer and the annotator

    5. A function offeedback is therefore to engage students fully in the formativestage, capture their enthusiasm, and reinforce good advice promot-ing learning and not failure

      Annotating with very negative words or expression can cause students to not understand what the problem is. This helps no one.

    6. Being able to decipher annotation is therefore key to good prac-tice, and success depends on its transparency so that students donot misinterpret intended meanings.

      Being able to comprehend the annotations can greatly effect your grade positively

    7. Marshall issuggesting that the dimension of interpretation lies between theinterstices of reading and writing, where value, tone, purposeful-ness and such like are translated into meaning.

      Agree, sometimes it can be hard for the annotator to get how extreme or not so extreme a problem is within the writing.

    8. Many annotations are telegraphic and incomplete. A high-lighted sentence, a cryptic marginal ‘‘No!” an unexplained link,a reading history, or a bookmark all poses interpretive difficul-ties for anyone other than the original annotator

      Annotation can be confusing and cause problem, however if the problem is clearly stated them it can be helpful

    9. formative assessment can guide students’ performance over timein multiple problem-solving situations and improve performanceprior to grading

      This is what I am accustomed too. Constructive criticism on my writing and then make the adjustments required to improve the grade.

    10. Students who receive evaluative annotations are more likely topay closer attention to feedback than are students who receivethe same material without annotation

      I feel like it is easier to fix mistakes when highlighted by annotation because thee mistake is right beside the annotation

    1. profit: the greater the risks, the greater the potential for profit (or loss). Companies that take too conservative a stance may lose out to more nimble competitors who react quickly to the changing business environment.

      I love that this article talks about how much risk is important in a successful business. I completely agree that if you play it too safely you will only get to safe results and will be less likely to "make it big" as most people say.

    2. electricity. Today urban sprawl, pollution, and limited resources have raised questions about resource use. Conservationists, environmentalists, and government bodies are proposing laws to require land-use planning and resource conservation.

      The author shows many examples of criticism, that then turn into the norm as people get more used to certain ideas

    5. An uncomfortable part of musical theater dance's history is how the AIDSepidemic, which decimated the Broadway community byclaiming thousands of gay men's lives in the 1980s and 1990s,resulted in an opening for women choreographers and directors.

      This is an interesting revelation.

    1. social world

      When I think about the social world, I think of school at Framingham State and how much it has done for me. I think of social media like Facebook and instagram. I want to know more about ways to fit into the world socially. I have been an introvert most of my life and I think it is my time to start branching out and manage work with play

    2. If we asked you to draw a picture of science, what would you draw?

      I would definitely draw my brain because I am just so open to new ideas and formulations. Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me and plays me into thinking something bad is going to happen but I know, I just know I can tackle this project with a sincere idea/ quesiton

    3. How can using scientific evidence help you combat popular myths about your topic that are based on erroneous thinking?

      Definitely looking forward to reading literature reviews and finding out as much as I can about my topic. I haven't picked out a topic yet but I know it is just going to be great!

    4. All human thought is subject to errors in thinking and reasoning.

      The good thing about this is that it doesn't have to be perfect. Even if I want it to be perfect, people will always find flaws in anything that I do. That has just been my experience. I can take when I know and apply it to my Research and hoepfully come out with more wisdom than what I know now.

    5. scientific evidence

      I am so looking forward to this Research Topic/Experiment because I have a range of people who I can collect data from. I belong and am a part of many different groups so I am truly looking forward to finding out preference, regularity, truth, and expected versus non-expected outcomes.

      I once met a woman who told me to never use the word "should". I now know exactly what she meant that everyone has their own implemented bias and it is up to me to understand what that means

    7. apply critical thinking

      I favor critical thinking because there is such a range of answers that can come from just one specific research question. I want to make sure I choose a research topic that is based on common sense intertwined with reality. Some realities are different for each individual so making sure I provide enough evidence to back up my claim is imperative.

    1. You must actively contribute to the success of small group work and discussions, and to group presentations when assigned.

      Although it is hard to stay motivated in an online setting when it comes to staying active in extensive discussions, there are also ways that us as students can advance our contribution to any discussion. In the end, demonstrating effective engagement in any discussion is helpful not just for your grade, but also for the sake of making discussions more academic and argumentative.

    2. You must demonstrate curiosity about new subjects and perspectives andbe willing to exert time and energy to pursue that curiosity.

      This is crucial in any Political Science/International Relations course you take. Demonstrating curiosity will help you stay motivated, but also allows you to be willing and able to research the content above and beyond normal expectations.

    1. A young man named Zhu Yuanzhang, born during the plague years, watched his entire family die in famines that swept through southern China in the 1340s. After taking refuge in a Buddhist monastery, Zhu joined local rebels when the monastery was destroyed by Yuan forces trying to contain a local insurrection. Zhu joined forces with a rebel army called the Red Turbans and rose quickly through the ranks

      Comparing this young man situation to the world we live in now, you can become anything you want to be with or without family support. Determination, commitment, and surrounding yourself with the right people can put you to where you want to be.

    3. The highest exam was administered by the emperor himself and passing it qualified a scholar for assignments in the imperial court. The exams were extremely difficult and at each level more people failed than passed. But the exams were also democratic in a wa

      I believe China prosper, because educated and trained individuals were put into positions of governance. Leaders trained and worked hard for the positions they held.

    4. But the exams were also democratic in a way: even a scholar from a poor family could take the exam if he could educate himself; success on the top exam was a ticket to the highest levels of imperial society.

      Democracy and fairness goes a long way in any given society. The Confucian principle allowing anyone once qualified to hold a position of leadership regardless of their background is one of things that made China great.

    5. Confucianism is not a perfect philosophy, since it accepted and even reinforced certain societal injustices. Confucius incorporated traditional Chinese ancestor-worship into his system, which implied a degree of sacredness for ancestral practices. For this reason, Confucian principles perpetuated and exacerbated the oppression of women, who had no standing in the male-dominated family structure. Girls were considered an expense to their birth families, since they only became valuable when they married and bore sons for their new families. Female infanticide has been a problem throughout Chinese history, as was, until the last century, the practice of foot-binding, which rendered generations of Chinese women crippled and semi-mobile for the sake of what amounted to a fetish of Chinese fashion.

      Every rule or philosophy no matter how good it is has its down side. The Confucianism although serve the greater good of the people of China, oppressed women. Women were treated as nothing but a mare sons making machine for their husbands. The practice of girls foot binding left many women cripple for many generations.

      This seems like a crucial point for the remainder of this article. The authors are trying to articulate this vision for a culturally responsive teacher, but the idea is that, culturally responsive teachers both require other culturally responsive teachers and also have to engage in culturally responsive teaching - it's the chicken-egg stuff you get in Aristotle. I want to think more about what sort of teaching environment would be required to allow teachers to become culturally responsive. What does the administrative environment need to be like? Class size? Union? Salary? What are the material/professional conditions necessary for the emergence of SRT?

    1. Answer to Question 1.5: Pyrogens cause body temperature to rise by acting on the hypothalamus, which controls the body’s thermostat. They trigger:

      Vasoconstriction – blood vessels narrow, reducing heat loss.

      Shivering – muscles generate more heat.

      Reduced sweating – less heat is lost through evaporation.

      Together, these responses raise body temperature, producing a fever.

      Answer to Question 1.6: Homeostasis is the maintenance of a stable internal environment despite changes in external conditions.

      Answer to Question 1.7:

      1. Stimulus: Body temperature rises or falls.
      2. Sensor: Thermoreceptors detect the change.
      3. Control center: Hypothalamus processes the information.
      4. Effectors: Sweat glands activate and blood vessels dilate (cooling) or muscles shiver and vessels constrict (warming).
      5. Response: Body temperature returns to normal.

      Answer to Question 1.8:

      1. Stimulus: Blood osmolarity increases (too concentrated) or decreases (too diluted).
      2. Sensor: Osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus detect the change.
      3. Control center: Hypothalamus signals the pituitary gland.
      4. Effectors: Kidneys retain or excrete water; thirst may be triggered.
      5. Response: Blood osmolarity returns to normal.

      Answer to Question 1.9: d

      Answer to Question 1.10: c

      Answer to Question 1.11: b

      Answer to Question 1.12:

      1. Stimulus – a change in the internal environment
      2. Sensor/receptor – detects the change
      3. Control center – processes the information and signals effectors
      4. Effector – acts to reverse the change

      If secretion of a body chemical became too great: The negative feedback loop would attempt to reduce or stop secretion to bring levels back to normal. If the system fails, it could lead to imbalances or disease.

      Answer to Question 1.13:

      1. Vasoconstriction – reduces heat loss from skin
      2. Shivering – generates heat through muscle activity
      3. Behavioral responses – seeking shelter, adding insulation, huddling
      4. Hormonal responses – thyroid hormone increases metabolic heat production
    1. Here, value refers not tothe monetary value of records, but their value in attestingto the events from which they emerged, their value inrepresenting some important aspect of the past, and, in somestrands of archival thinking, their value for present andfuture users.

      I thought this was a poignant reminder that archive means the past does not end, but provides an understanding of what to do, and what not to do, based on what was already done. It’s also a reminder that archivists are not burdened with the responsibility of their biased opinions as the determining factor of a collection, rather a skill set in valuing what’s best for the repository.

    1. The first important observation is that state-of-the-art approaches,except CPM, fail to produce an embedding for the complete dataset (containing 100,000 cells),due to their reliance on pairwise distances for the computation of embeddings, which scalesquadratically in the number of cells

      This doesn't feel quite fair, as UMAP and tSNE were designed to handle datasets of this size and have been widely used to generate embeddings for single-cell datasets of this size and larger. Also, I believe at least UMAP is sub-quadratic in the number of samples, as it uses an approximate kNN algorithm that is n log n.

    2. On synthetic trees with up to 5 generations and 34,000individuals, CPM cuts distortion by > 99%

      It would be helpful to clarify what this claim is based on, as I can't see anything in Figure 2 that indicates a 99% change in any of the metrics between CPM and PM.

    3.   ӧ >4  *ӧ 4{ӧ >ӧ 4ӧ !>*ӧ k ӧ 4>*ӧ

      I think it is more of the societal expectation that reject the word play for adults. Play does have very childish connotations. For example, instead of role play for kids, you have acting for actors. It’s the same thing, just a different label.

      It is because of the notion of responsibility. Adults have more of such, so they lose the value of play compared to children

    1. Answer to Question 1.2: d

      Possible Answer to Question 1.3:

      Fairyflies (tiny insects <0.2 mm) rely on diffusion for oxygen because their bodies are too small for complex respiratory organs.

      Why size limits life: Too small → not enough cells for organs; too large → diffusion alone can’t supply oxygen efficiently.

      Possible Answer(s) for Question 1.4: 1. Oxygen Availability - Limited oxygen in water or soil can restrict survival. 2. Temperature - Extreme heat or cold can denature proteins and disrupt metabolism. 3. Water availability - Deserts and dry habitats limit hydration and cellular function. 4. Nutrient availability - Scarcity of essential minerals or food limits growth. 5. Size - Small or large body size can restrict diffusion, movement, or organ development.

    1. Accordingly, flow today incorporates the very sys-tems that propel global capitalism and determine ourpositions within it. The consumption of mediated tex-tual sequences is important, but only one small aspectof this grand flow, which incorporates flows of energy,raw materials, labor, finance, and information across

      Kompare argues that flow today goes past media and reflects global systems like capitalism. The "movement" of energy, resources, labor, and information shapes how media is produced and consumed. Media flow is just one part of this network, showing that our media habits are connected to economic and social dynamics.

    2. audience, the proliferation of user-generated content,the multiple platforms through which media texts areconsumed, and the ongoing war between feminismand antifeminism are presenting new challenges andopportunities for further elaboration of feminist mediaanalysis to the ongoing, explosive changes in our digitalenvironment and how it too is now profoundly shap-ing gender identity, performance, relationships, and thestill elusive hope for gender equality

      media is not just entertainment, it can actively influences ideas of gender and the fight for equality. It can also influence culture such as in the way of fashion, language, etc.

    1. Speaking Native languages and practicing religious or familial customs were violently punished in these Boarding Schools (Lomawaima 2018).

      In Boarding Schools, Native languages and cultural practices were often suppressed through violent and systematic methods (Lomawaima, 2018). Students were frequently punished for speaking their native languages, sometimes facing physical punishment, verbal abuse, or detention if they were caught using their Indigenous tongues. This policy aimed to erase Indigenous identities and assimilate students into Euro-American cultural norms, often forcing them to abandon their family traditions, spiritual practices, and ways of life. Religious and familial customs, which were central to Indigenous communities, were considered threatening to the colonial agenda of cultural domination, leading to their suppression through coercive measures. This violent suppression not only caused immediate harm to the students but also contributed to intergenerational trauma, loss of cultural knowledge, and the ongoing marginalization of Native identities.

    1. Register encompasses eye contact, body position, gestures, facial expression, and rhythm of language by a person during a conversation or interaction

      When I stand in front of a group or people or students to teach or discuss something I always consider how they see me form their perspective. I think about how I want people to see me then act accordingly.

    2. Set students up for success with clear directions of what to do next.

      Give students guidance and direction to where they don't have an opportunity to misbehave. Give them clear instructions from start to finish.

    3. Its important for us to consider how students perceive the actions we take towards classroom management. We want to be careful not to make reinforcements seem bias or personal. Students process behaviors much differently than adults.

    1. These artists succeed partly because they transcend the language barriers we identified—either through English dominance or, in K-pop's case, through production styles that work across languages. British, Canadian, and Australian artists benefit from the same English-language algorithmic advantage.

      I suggest we replace the em dash with :

    1. Imru-Ul-Quais' poem centers on themes of loss, longing, and memory, as he recalls past loves and mourns the traces of abandoned camps while weaving his grief into vivid depictions of nature, desire, and the desolate world around him. I paused at the line, “Nay, the cure of my sorrow must come from gushing tears. Yet, is there any hope that this desolation can bring me solace?” because it complicates the usual idea of mourning as a release, suggesting instead that memory may intensify pain rather than ease it. What especially captured my imagination, however, was the elaborate description of his horse, whose speed, strength, and other features seem to embody both the poet’s vitality and the severe beauty of the desert. The horse appears tireless (“he did not even sweat so as to need washing” after outrunning wild game") and is compared to natural forces like torrents and fire, suggesting a kind of resistance to human limits that contrasts sharply with the poem’s opening images of loss and desolation. This blending of personal sorrow with natural and animal imagery makes me think about how pre-Islamic poetry connects human emotion to the environment/nature, which could be an area to explore further.

    1. Yet it is a characteristic for which hardly any of our receivedmodes of observation and description prepare us. The reviewingof television programmes is of course of uneven quality, but inmost even of the best reviews there is a conventional persistencefrom earlier models. Reviewers pick out this play or that feature,this discussion programme or that documentary. I reviewed tele-vision once a month over four years, and I know how muchmore settling, more straightforward, it is to do that. For most ofthe items there are some received procedures, and the method,the vocabulary, for a specific kind of description and responseexists or can be adapted.

      Williams says that most ways of reviewing TV come from older media like theatre, film, and books. Reviewers usually focus on one program at a time a play, a documentary, a discussion because that’s the normal way to write criticism

    2. BC 1, 13 June 1973, from 5.42

      how much money did British TV licenses actually bring in? Was it enough to have a wide variety of TV? Was it a one time payment or a subscription?

    3. American television this development was different; the spon-sored programmes incorporated the advertising from the outset,from the initial conception, as part of the whole package. Butit is now obvious, in both British and American commercialtelevision, that the notion of ‘interruption’, while it has stillsome residual force from an older model, has becomeprogramming: distribution and flow90

      In the U.S., shows were sponsored from the start, so ads were built in as part of the program. In Britain, ads were inserted later, breaking up the content

    4. Meanwhile, sporting events, especially footballmatches, as they became increasingly important public occa-sions, included entertainment such as music or marching intheir intervals.

      Williams points out that sports events like football games became big public gatherings, not just about the sport. This also shows how sports developed into a mix of different kinds of entertainment

    5. From the late nine-teenth century this came to be reflected in formal layout,culminating in the characteristic jigsaw effect of the modernprogramming: distribution and flow 87

      He points out that TV didn't invent this style of mixing, it came from earlier media like newspapers

      TemaPaz, Justiça e Instituições Eficazes <br /> Ação monitória. Sucessão processual. Art. 109, § 1º, do CPC. Silêncio. Preclusão.

      Destaque - O silêncio da parte no prazo concedido para se manifestar implica a preclusão do direito de impugnar o pedido de sucessão processual.

      Informações do Inteiro Teor - Cinge-se a controvérsia em definir se a ausência de manifestação expressa sobre a cessão do crédito configura consentimento da parte contrária para a sucessão processual no curso do processo de conhecimento.

      • O art. 109, § 1º, do CPC estabelece que "o adquirente ou cessionário não poderá ingressar em juízo, sucedendo o alienante ou cedente, sem que o consinta a parte contrária".

      • Os atos processuais não retroagem. O processo não é um saco sem fundos e por isso mesmo sempre segue uma marcha tendente a um fim.

      • O silêncio da parte no prazo concedido para se manifestar implica a preclusão do direito de impugnar o pedido de sucessão processual. É uma situação de inércia da parte, que no âmbito processual, decorrido o prazo para manifestação, é apto a gerar efeitos.

      • Ato processual não significa apenas a conduta expressa e afirmativa, mas também a conduta omissiva, mormente se a omissão estiver vinculada a um dever processual. No caso, o sistema processual exigia, como imperativo de conduta a expressa oposição da parte quanto à sucessão processual. Daí, se aparte preferiu se omitir, deve suportar os efeitos dessa sua inércia.

      • Embora o silêncio seja um fato juridicamente ambíguo, estabelecido o ônus de se manifestar gera para a parte o risco de ver o seu silêncio interpretado como declaração de vontade.

      Obs.: A norma expressa que terceiro adquirente ou cessionário não pode ingressar na lide em sucessão processual sem que a parte contrária consinta, autorize.

      Ou seja, a parte contrária pode se opor à sucessão processual e, se assim não o faz, preclui essa faculdade. Entendendo-se que, apesar da ambiguidade do silêncio, a omissão em se opor gera aceitação tácita, visto que concedido prazo para tal ato, se a parte se mantém inerte, haverá a sucessão processual.

      I added this to send home the message:

      "Our analysis of algorithmic influence reveals how these feedback loops amplify existing dominance patterns, reinforcing the global reach of already-successful acts while limiting exposure for homegrown talent."

    2. Of course, some artists from non-English-speaking countries record in English too — but the lack of a language barrier, combined with the sheer global reach of the American music industry, gives US acts a natural advantage in English-speaking markets like the UK.

      Of course, some artists from non-English-speaking countries record in English, too. Still, the lack of a language barrier, combined with the sheer global reach of the American music industry, gives US acts a natural advantage in English-speaking markets like the UK.

    3. British artists must compete not just locally, but against the full arsenal of American pop culture — from TikTok algorithms favoring US hits to the nonstop flood of US releases. In non-English speaking countries, language can act as a natural buffer for local talent. In the UK, that protection doesn't exist. Scholars like Robert Phillipson have long argued that the dominance of English reinforces cultural hierarchies — a dynamic clearly reflected in Britain's charts.

    4. Nearly every major European country gives more chart presence to their domestic artists than the UK. Spain, with just 28% for local artists, comes closest to Britain's low levels. However, Spain imports most of its music from Puerto Rico (30%) rather than from the USA (7.5%), unlike Britain. Meanwhile, musical powerhouses like Sweden—home to ABBA and modern pop architects Max Martin—maintain a majority share for their domestic artists despite massive international success.

    1. Genre preferences trump geographic loyalty. Artists find their biggest audiences not necessarily where they're from, but where their sound resonates culturally. Country music thrives in country markets, hip-hop in hip-hop cities — regardless of the artist's hometown. California's dominance isn't just about having great artists; it's about having artists whose genres align with local tastes.

      Overall, genre preferences trump geographic loyalty. Artists find their biggest audiences not necessarily where they are from, but where their sound resonates culturally. Country music thrives in country markets, while hip-hop prevails in hip-hop cities, regardless of the artist's hometown. California's musical dominance stems not just from having great artists but those whose genres align with local tastes.

    2. Even Texas — with its vibrant music scene — shows only modest hometown support (4-6% for local artists). Despite having acts like Beyoncé, Travis Scott, and Megan Thee Stallion, Texas cities stream California artists at far higher rates than their own.

      Even Texas—with its vibrant music scene—shows only modest hometown pride, with only 4-6% of streams going to local artists. Despite notable acts like Beyoncé, Travis Scott, and Megan Thee Stallion, Texas cities tend to stream California artists at far higher rates than their own.

    3. Here's where the story gets surprising: While American artists capture 78.8% of national charts, most U.S. cities barely listen to their own state's artists at all. Chicago—home of Kanye, Chance the Rapper, and house music—gives just 0.2% of chart positions to Illinois artists. Detroit, which gave the world Motown and Eminem, matches that with 0.2% for Michigan artists. Even New Orleans, the birthplace of jazz, devotes only 0.4% to Louisiana talent. The stunning exception? California. Every single California city analyzed lands in the top 5 nationally, with Los Angeles streaming 28% California artists—that's 138 times more hometown loyalty than Chicago. The reason is simple: California doesn't just produce artists, it produces global megastars like Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish, and Tyler, The Creator who dominate both worldwide and at home. The chart below reveals which cities actually support their home-state artists—and which musical capitals have surprisingly abandoned their own:

    7. The reverse is equally telling. Missouri native Chappell Roan and St. Louis-born (but New Jersey-raised) SZA are actually more popular in Northeast and West Coast cities than in Missouri. In St. Louis, these two artists capture just 8% of chart presence combined — barely beating Tennessee's Morgan Wallen at 7%. A country superstar from another state nearly matches them in Missouri's biggest city.

    8. This divide has everything to do with regional music tastes. Take Kendrick Lamar: The California rapper commands roughly 10% of streaming activity in his home state's cities. But he also dominates in places like Detroit, Portland, and Phoenix — cities far from California but culturally receptive to his West Coast sound. Meanwhile, he gets minimal play in Southern strongholds like Memphis and Nashville, where country music reigns.

In contrast, he gets minimal play in Southern strongholds like Memphis and Nashville, where country music reigns.
