The document discusses the history of chocolate, from its origins in Mesoamerica to its popularity in Europe. Cacao beans were first used as currency and medicine by the Olmec and Mayans. Spanish conquistadors introduced chocolate to Europe in the 16th century, where it became a popular drink among the elite. By the 19th century, chocolate had evolved into a confection and global commodity.
The document discusses the history and development of chocolate over centuries. It details how cocoa beans were first used as currency by the Maya and Aztecs before being transformed into a sweet confection by the Spanish in Europe. The text also notes that chocolate became increasingly popular worldwide from the 18th century onward as production methods advanced.
1. The author proposes using selective 2'-OH acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) chemistry to study RNA structure, including the bI5 intron and exon splice enhancers (ESEs) involved in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
2. Preliminary results on the bI5 intron show SHAPE is capable of analyzing over 400 nucleotides but signal decays with length. Interpreting reactivity data to constrain structure prediction is challenging.
3. SHAPE validates a predicted tertiary interaction in bI5 and computer modeling suggests a single nucleotide polymorphism in an ESE involved in SMA causes structural changes that could lead to incorrect splicing.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness, happiness and focus.

This document discusses the development of a new type of battery that could revolutionize energy storage. It describes how the battery uses a newly discovered material as its cathode that allows it to store 10 times more energy density than lithium-ion batteries. The document concludes by stating that this breakthrough could enable the widespread adoption of electric vehicles and renewable energy sources by significantly reducing battery costs.
The document discusses the importance of summarization for processing large amounts of text data. Automatic summarization systems aim to understand documents, determine the most important information, and present the key details in a condensed form while preserving the overall meaning. Current models can analyze text, identify topics and important sentences, but still struggle with generating coherent multi-sentence summaries that capture the salient essence due to the complexity of natural language.

The document discusses the history and evolution of the automobile industry over the past century. It describes how cars started out as luxury items for the wealthy but became common consumer goods as companies focused on mass production techniques that reduced costs. The document also notes that global competition has intensified as new players have entered the market.
The document discusses the history and development of artificial intelligence over the past 70 years. It outlines some of the key milestones in AI research from the early work in the 1950s to modern advances in deep learning. While progress has been steady, fully general artificial intelligence that can match or exceed human levels of reasoning across all domains remains an ongoing challenge that researchers are still working to achieve.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise boosts blood flow, releases endorphins, and promotes changes in the brain which help regulate emotions and stress levels.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
