A visualization of Bruce Sterling’s Closing Key note Dark Euphoria- the cultural temperament of the coming decade: Gothic High-Tech and Favela Chic
“It is neither progress nor conservatism because there's nothing left to conserve and no direction in which to progress. So what you get is transition. Transition to nowhere.'"

He defines four quadrants for the coming decade and neatly discards this half as being irrelevant for the audience (which equates to the majority of the world's population): the financial crisis of the Boomer generation, the BRICs, the emerging economies and the 'fundies' of all persuasions

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

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. SOME WAYS TO ADVANCE A STORY
3
• Correct something (include documentation of the
original error, your efforts to get it corrected – by email,
Twitter, etc. – and what, if anything resulted)
• Suggest a new angle or follow-up in a comment
attached to the article, phone conversation with the
reporter, etc. (include documentation or, in the case of
phone conversation, description of your interaction)
4. SOME WAYS TO ADVANCE A STORY,
CONTINUED
4
• Use the original story as a peg or jumping off point
to write your own story or blog post
• Alert a policy-maker to a story you believe helps
make the case for or against a public policy you’d like
enacted or avoided
• Initiate a conversation on social media or elsewhere
about a story you regard as worthy of further
consideration
9. A HISTORY OF DISTORTION
• Photographic distortion may be easier in the
digital age, but it is not a new phenomenon.
• Photography was invented in 1839–40.
• The first instance of distortion – a faked
photograph – appeared in the same period.
14. STANDARDS FOR STILL
PHOTOS
The consensus standard is a zero tolerance of
digital manipulation in news photographs, no
matter how benign. Here’s why:
• “Zero” is easily understood and inflexible.
• A flexible standard would lead to a slippery
slope.
15. PERMISSIBLE ADJUSTMENTS
• The consensus allows “burning,” “dodging,”
and “toning.”
• The purpose is to help the audience see what
the photographer saw.
16. POSING FOR PHOTOGRAPHS
• Posed photographs are acceptable if the
posing is obvious.
• An example: Photographing an automobile
executive in front of the assembly line.
17. PHOTO ILLUSTRATIONS
• A photo illustration is “a work of fictional
imagery,” often seen in food and fashion
photography.
• It should be self-evident; readers should
know that what they are seeing is not real.
• In journalism, the concept of photo
illustrations remains controversial.
19. MAGAZINE COVERS
• For their cover photos, magazine art
directors routinely depart from the standards
of documentary photography.
• Are these cover photos journalism, or are
they merely commercial devices?
20. STANDARDS IN NEWS VIDEO
• Don’t add sounds that did not exist in the
original.
• Add music judiciously.
• Be careful about slow motion and other
special effects.
21. POSING IN NEWS VIDEO
Stage-managing standards are looser than in
print. There are three kinds of posing:
• for convenience of editing;
• for convenience of time;
• for convenience of story.
22. OFFENSIVE CONTENT IN
PHOTOS
The audience reacts negatively to:
• graphic violence;
• dead bodies;
• nudity;
• indecent behavior;
• perceived invasion of privacy;
• juveniles performing dangerous acts.
26. FACTORS TO CONSIDER
• The scale of the event. The bigger the event,
the less likely the audience will be offended.
• Who is involved. The audience objects to
perceived embarrassment of ordinary people
thrust into the news, and to graphic photos in
which the person pictured does not survive.
27. REAL-TIME EXPLANATIONS
• Some journalists add to graphic photos an
explanation of why they think the public
should see them.
• Pro: It’s a matter of accountability and
transparency.
• Con: This might suggest, erroneously, that,
where a photo offends and there is no
explanation, the editors didn’t consider the
audience.
28. INTRUSION BY
PHOTOJOURNALISTS
• Because their equipment cannot be hidden
like a reporter’s notebook, photojournalists
often have to justify their presence.
• Sometimes, as in the case of the McAuliffe
memorial services, photojournalists can ruin
an event by their presence.
