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
Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
4. It occurs when people devote so much time
and attention to an activity that it begins to
pattern their thoughts, mental images,
and dreams.
This effect is known to come into play when
the person is in a supermarket or streets.
It is also felt by speedcubers and
mathematicians and on a perceptual level,
similar to sea legs.
5. The natural tendency of small objects floating in
water to attract one another—and to head
toward the edges of the container—is called the
____ Effect.
A ____, which is denser than milk, will remain
atop the surface of the milk with the aid of
surface tension, but the level of the milk
immediately local to the ___ will dip slightly,
causing nearby ____s to behave the same way—
basically, the fall into the slight dip caused by
the first ____.
6. The X effect is the development of emotional
attachment with machines or robots or
even software agents. It has been noticed
that humans tend to attach emotionally to
things which otherwise do not have any
emotions.
X’s name comes from a portmanteau of the
words, “egg” and “watch” of the local
language of the place where X was invented.
7. “A lot of people have ugly things lying around
because they made them themselves; they went
to some pottery class when they were 23 and
made a vase that is lopsided and hideous and no
one would ever buy it. But people hold on to
these possessions like they are worth a million
dollars.”
This is an example of X effect where you tend to
over estimate the value of something made
from your own labour.
8. Shown here is an effect
famously demonstrated
by Professor Peter
Thomson, Psychology
Dept. Of University of
York, England in 1980.
Who could he have
possibly used to
demonstrate this such
that it has gone on to
become its name?

21. X embeds digital information into real-
world contexts whileY creates digital
contexts that behave in ways that mimic
real-world analogues.
In X, an additional information appliance
also helps you access digital media objects
related to at place, space, thing or event,
so part of your overall experience is
digital.While inY, your whole sensorium
engages digital objects in a digital
environment - it's all media. Typically, it's
immersive, so you have a 1st-person view
of it, and objects in this context are arrayed
in all three spatial dimensions, so you
move around in them
26. American Graffiti
American Sniper
American Hustle
American in Paris
American Beauty (Belle from Beauty and the
Beast)
27. X is a pejorative term describing web
content that is aimed at generating online
advertising revenue, especially at the expense of
quality or accuracy, relying
on sensationalist headlines.They typically
exploit the "curiosity gap", providing just enough
information to make the reader curious, but not
enough to satisfy their curiosity without going to
the linked content.
X is a simple fusion of two common words which
directly explains its purpose.
33. A cocktail is a layered shot composed of
a coffee liqueur (Kahlúa), an Irish
cream(Baileys Irish Cream), and a triple
sec (Grand Marnier) often with the top layer
set on fire.
An American new wave band, formed
in Athens, Georgia in 1976 .
A Boeing creation in the ColdWar era with
eight turbojet engines and swept wings also
called as BUFF (Big Ugly Fat F<you know>)
36. The X is the uncertainty in situational
awareness experienced by participants in military
operations.The term seeks to capture the uncertainty
regarding one's own capability, adversary capability, and
adversary intent during an engagement, operation, or
campaign.The term is also used to define uncertainty
mechanics in wargames.
X is also the name of a 2003 Academy Award
Documentary Film about a certain Robert S. McNamara.
The main purpose of documentary was to highlight the
difficulty in making decisions, especially when the stakes
are so high.
The term X also makes literal sense and implies the
situational unawareness faced by soldiers.
39. The incident shown in this video served as the
inspiration for something that happened mid-
September in India.What?

42. For decades, researchers have assumed that A flows like B.After
all, plasma, the liquid in which the A cells are suspended, consists
to 92 percent of B. However, researchers from the UPenn
and Saarland University in Germany, discovered that plasma is
more elastic and viscous than B, and, like ketchup, its flow
properties depend on the pressure it is under.These traits mean
that it has a much greater effect on how A flows than was
previously thought.
The study may help improve researchers’ understanding of
medical conditions such as aneurysms and arteriosclerosis. It may
also lead to more accurate computer simulations of ___
Other than scientific reasons, this also proved an oft repeated
statement.
45. Designed by
Hoyoung Lee, this
particular invention
tackles the age old
issues associated
with the current
technology like
impossible to
correct mistakes,
expensive supplies
and jamming.
How does this solve
all of these?
51. This is a curious example of packaging followed
universally.The two products are often used in
succession and hence a design difference is
seen.
While one curves to the right, other curves to the
left.Alternatively, one is sold cap at the bottom
while the other is sold cap at the top.
The logical explanation would be to prevent
consumers from confusing them. However, a
theory goes that, the company wants one to get
over faster than other so you would buy the
same company’s product for symmetry.
54. On the next slide is a screen grab showing the
annual search trends for “roman numerals”.
There is an unusually strong spike at a certain
specific time of the year.
What is the reason behind this?
93. X andY are among the most popularTamil writers in
history and derive their nom de plume from their wives
X combined his own initials to a part his wife, Kalyani’s
name. He is a notedTamil freedom fighter, social crusader,
novelist, short story writer, journalist, humorist, satirist,
travel writer, script-writer, poet, film & music critic and
perhaps best known for his 2400 page work, Ponniyin
Selvan. He also has a arterial road in Chennai named after
him.
Y was active in a period after X and has contributed to
several magazines including X (shares name with person
X).Y worked as the editor of Kumudam and has even
written screenplays for movies.
96. It's prudish poetry that has somehow endured throughout
the years, but its origins—like its definition—aren't entirely
clear. One possible origin is Samuel ColeridgeTaylor,
whose verses in "WorkWithout Hope“ where he says this-
All nature seems at work . . .The ___ are stirring--___ are on
the wing . . . and I the while, the sole unbusy thing, not
honey make, nor pair, nor build, nor sing.
Another explanation can be derived from this John Evelyn
description of the interior of St. Peter's in Rome
That stupendous canopy of Corinthian brasse; it consists of 4
wreath'd columns--incircl'd with vines, on which hang little
putti [cherubs], ___ and ___.
Many believe that he used the phrase as a poetic
euphemism for describing what it currently means
103. WordStar is a word processor application that
had a dominant market share during the early-
to mid-1980s. It is no longer developed,
maintained or sold by its owners
However, among the few who use this had this
to say aboutWordstar, (not the person in
question) "I'm told there are better programs,
but I'm also told there are better alphabets.”
The person in question gave the following
explanation
104. “I don’t want a capital. If I’d wanted a capital, I
would have typed a capital,” “I know how to
work the shift key.”
He also hates spell check, according to the
interview, which makes perfect sense.
“I don’t want any help,” he said.
110. It was conceptualized and built by Skyline Group
and is made out of 10,000 bricks.This 27 feet
high and 15 feet wide structure, erected just a
few steps into the stadium, is a unique tribute
to home-born player who made it big in the
world.
It was constructed in 2008 and unveiled by
another master of the game.
It then had a live electronic unit, at the right-
hand-top-corner which tracked the person’s
progress. If things had stayed that way the
electronic unit must be frozen at 13288.
113. X is among few entertainment companies that has hallmarked
several pioneering efforts with its innovative and out- of-the- box
thinking. Founded in 1962, X is an established media content
house in the country, active in Content Acquisition,Value Addition

have seen watermarked into shady videos.
116. Now a ______ is the best receptacle
For barbecues tailgates fairs and festivals
And you sir do not have a pair of testicles
If you prefer drinking from glass
Now I really love how your easy to stack
But I really hate how your easy to crack
'Cause when beer runs down the front of my back
Well that my friends is quite yucky
But I have to admit that the ladies get smitten
Admiring how sharply my first name is written
On you with a sharpie when I get to hittin'
On them to help me get lucky
117. Now I've seen you in blue and I've seen you in
yellow
But only you __ will do for this fellow
'Cause you are my Abbot to my Costello
And you are the fruit to my loom

fantastic
And believe me that I'm not the least bit sarcastic
When I look at you and say...
123. The Keeling Curve is a graph which plots the ongoing
change in concentration of ____________ in the
Earth's atmosphere since 1958. It is based on
continuous measurements taken at the Mauna Loa
Observatory in Hawaii that began under the
supervision of Charles David Keeling.

129. This website is one of a kind developed by
WebChutney. It uses a flash file and at the time of
accessing the website you need to have internet
connection. Once this flash file is downloaded a script
check is done to see if you are connected to the net or
not. It is fully accessible once disconnected and only
shows the homepage otherwise.
With a heady mix of foot-tapping music, vibrant
splash of colours, quirky quotes and illustrations, and
icons stylized like the person, it went viral three years
back.
What is this “no ordinary site” all about?
