Both houses of Florida's Republican-controlled legislature have passed new legislation banning social media companies from deplatforming political candidates or censoring large journalistic organizations. Gov. Ron DeSantis has expressed support for the bill and is expected to sign it into law.

Tech companies could be fined as much as $250,000 per day if they deplatform a statewide political candidate in the state. Critics argue that the bill is likely to be struck down as unconstitutional. That seems especially likely because the bill is ...

Germany's top court struck down part of the nation's sweeping climate law, saying it violates people's freedoms. 

By many standards, the law is aggressive, requiring the country to slash emissions 55 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 and reach net zero by 2050. The country has already trimmed 35 percent of its carbon pollution, leaving just another 20 percent to be cut over the next nine years. And that's where the court ...

Nicolas Poussin Painting in London, Long Believed to Be a Copy, Gets Reattributed

April 30, 2021

The National Gallery in London has long held one of the world's greatest collections of paintings by Nicolas Poussin, with more than a dozen paintings by the 17th-century French artist in its holdings. Recent research has revealed that the museum owns one more Poussin painting than it thought it did.

On Thursday, the National Gallery announced that it had reattributed The Triumph of Silenus(ca. 1637), the first Poussin work ever acquired by the museum. The painting had long been considered a copy, though new findings suggest that it is indeed stylistically similar enough to other works by ...

Before diving into the numbers, it needs to be noted that starting with the data from March 2021, the year-over-year (YoY) numbers should be contextualized with the understanding that March 2020 was the first month where the global economy started feeling the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dozens of viruses seem to use a different DNA base

April 30, 2021

Image of two chemical structures.

Enlarge / Normal DNA uses adenine (left), while some viruses use diaminopurine instead.

DNA is the genetic material used by every living organism. But, in a few edge cases, the four bases of DNA—adenine, thymidine, cytosine, and guanine—undergo chemical modifications. And in viruses, things are far more flexible, with many using RNA instead of DNA as their genetic material. In all these cases, the base pairing in the genetic material takes place according to the rules that James Watson and Francis Crick first proposed.

Until now, there was a single exception, a virus that infects bacteria and uses its ...

4.30.21 – Challenges with self-preservation when Ceres in Aries squares Pluto

April 30, 2021

Initially Ceres was named a planet, but as others were discovered in the asteroid belt she was reclassified as an asteroid. In 2006 she was reclassified as a planet along with Eris (and Pluto, but we won't go there today!), and I started taking her more seriously in astrological charts. Ceres is the place in our chart that connects us to our natural selves. Difficult aspects to Ceres show challenges to our ability to feel safe in our bodily incarnation and denote areas where we need to make a more direct effort to honor the ...

They Denied Her ADHD Because She Was Disciplined, Studious… and Indian

April 30, 2021

During lessons, Eeshani doodled rainbows and flowers on her notebook, using funky-colored gel pens to take the dryness out of note-taking. Her brain wandered during lectures even though she looked at the board; no hint of her inner struggle for the outside world to see.

At night, she had to study the material taught in class for hours. During a home study session, she could focus… but on the wrong tasks. If she had assignments due on Wednesday and Friday, she'd start Friday's first. She observed that her peers spent less time studying than she did and earned higher ...

The Tepelene Water comes from an ancient water source in the south of Albania, and it is where one of the country's a famous aqueducts was built around 250 years ago. To bring the viewer closer to this natural piece of history, the commercial was filmed in the mountains of Tepelene and the campaign was launched with this powerful commercial through a poetic manifesto. The Albanian iso-polyphony, being an important part of the traditional folkloric music and UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage list, was finely integrated in the ad.

After brushing her teeth, gargling pink bubblegum mouthwash, and throwing on sparkling leggings and a sweatshirt, my eight-year-old elementary school student, Kennedy — who has ADHD and sensory processing disorder — is ready to start her school day.

Kennedy skips downstairs around 8:30 a.m., grabs her favorite breakfast bar and a bottle of water, and boots up her school-issued Chromebook. Just as her teacher appears on the screen to start her virtual lesson, I make a mental note to myself: Kennedy took her Strattera last night. I ...

"Sugar Fever Dream" by Artist Karla Marchesi

April 30, 2021

Karla Marchesi (previously featured here).

 

The exhibition Sugar Fever Dream by Brisbane-born, Berlin-based artist Karla Marchesi presents a range of hyper-natural Post-Humanist landscapes. These paintings are bowls of brightly wrapped candy, offering enticement on first glance, but may induce nausea if consumed in totality.

With an air of affirmative nihilism and a playful aesthetic of excess, Sugar Fever Dream is a counter vision to Western thought at the height of anthropocentrism. In a waking nightmare of interspecies revenge, this collection draws 17th century Still Life and Vanitas traditions into a Contemporary post-internet landscape. Employing Ecohorror tropes, Art Historical ...

Perhaps no building is closer to a date with the wrecking ball in Chicagothan the James R. Thompson Center. While those responsible for initiating this threat cite years worth of deferred maintenance and high costs of operation as the primary reasons for their decision, these are not the real reasons for the building's demise. It suffers from a much more lethal ailment — treating it like a normal building. In this video, Stewart explains why the Thompson ...

From the 14th to the 16th century, Iran had witnessed growth and affluence under the Timurid and Safavid dynasties. During this period, many mosques, palaces and pavilions were commissioned and contributed to sites of veneration and pilgrimage. However not many of these key architectural realms survived and few historical texts exist to relay the intricacies of the architecture of that time.

What remained were some dispersed manuscripts from the Shahnamehand other renowned illustrated stories or poems that represented the moral values and aesthetics of that ...
