  • How America Lost Its Mind the Nation’S Current Post-Truth Moment Is the Ultimate Expression of Mind-Sets That Have Made America Exceptional Throughout Its History
    1 How America Lost Its Mind The nation’s current post-truth moment is the ultimate expression of mind-sets that have made America exceptional throughout its history. KURT ANDERSEN SEPTEMBER 2017 ISSUE THE ATLANTIC “You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts.” — Daniel Patrick Moynihan “We risk being the first people in history to have been able to make their illusions so vivid, so persuasive, so ‘realistic’ that they can live in them.” — Daniel J. Boorstin, The Image: A Guide to Pseudo-Events in America (1961) 1) WHEN DID AMERICA become untethered from reality? I first noticed our national lurch toward fantasy in 2004, after President George W. Bush’s political mastermind, Karl Rove, came up with the remarkable phrase reality-based community. People in “the reality-based community,” he told a reporter, “believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality … That’s not the way the world really works anymore.” A year later, The Colbert Report went on the air. In the first few minutes of the first episode, Stephen Colbert, playing his right-wing-populist commentator character, performed a feature called “The Word.” His first selection: truthiness. “Now, I’m sure some of the ‘word police,’ the ‘wordinistas’ over at Webster’s, are gonna say, ‘Hey, that’s not a word!’ Well, anybody who knows me knows that I’m no fan of dictionaries or reference books. They’re elitist. Constantly telling us what is or isn’t true. Or what did or didn’t happen.

I agree with the premise that the United States is deeply politically divided but am hesitant whether I have anything useful to say in response to the questions. The results of the last two presidential elections paint a picture of a population almost evenly divided be- tween sharply contrasting ideological poles. In Novem- ber 2020, Joe Biden won 81,283,098 votes, or 51.3% of the votes cast.1 Donald Trump won 74,222,958 votes, or 46.8% of the votes cast.2 The 2016 presidential election was even closer, with Hillary Clinton beating Donald Trump by nearly three million votes.3 Biden and Trump ∗ Dean and Jesse H.

As a witness to this amazing cultural exchange in the culinary world, it gives me great joy to see Japanese knives highly regarded and used by esteemed chefs worldwide. Although I am not a chef or a restaurateur, I believe that my role in this industry is to find the highest quality tools from Japan in hopes that they may assist you in reaching your career goals. While making this knife catalog, we did extensive research to provide our readers with as much information as possible so as to maximize the potential of the knives and services offered through Korin.

  • Effects of Prosody and Context on the Comprehension of Syntactic Ambiguity in English and Korean
    EFFECTS OF PROSODY AND CONTEXT ON THE COMPREHENSION OF SYNTACTIC AMBIGUITY IN ENGLISH AND KOREAN DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Soyoung Kang, B.A. M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Shari R. Speer, Adviser Professor Mary E. Beckman Professor Mineharu Nakayama Adviser Graduate Program in Linguistics ABSTRACT This study investigates how prosodic and contextual information affects the way syntactically am- biguous sentences in English and Korean are understood in spoken language comprehension. En- glish materials used include rarely studied present participial constructions. Korean materials in- clude a type of relative clause that contains empty pronouns as one of arguments, a structure that was never examined before. When these sentence materials were presented without biasing con- texts, results showed that prosodic phrasing largely determined meaning assignment. These results extended previous research that demonstrated prosodic effects on syntactically ambiguous struc- tures. Results from experiments that manipulated both prosodic and contextual information showed that prosodic information was still effective even in the presence of biasing contextual information. Taken together, these results demonstrate the robust effect of prosodic information and necessitate the inclusion of prosodic component in any model of spoken language processing. ii To my family. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, I would like to thank Shari Speer, Mary Beckman, and Mineharu Nakayama, whom I was really glad to have on my committee; I could not have wished for a better committee. Throughout the whole period of working on this dissertation, Shari has been incredibly supportive and encouraging and without her guidance and help, this work would not have been possible.

  • Civil Rights and Equity Committee Report 2015
    Report of the Civil Rights and Equity Committee to the 75th Convention Communications Workers of America June 8-10, 2015 Detroit, Michigan 1 Report of the National Civil Rights and Equity Committee to the 75th International CWA Convention The Troubling State of Our Nation Michael Brown, an unarmed black teen, was shot and killed by a white police officer in Ferguson. This tragic killing raised outrage and action in Ferguson’s black community, which is over 60 percent of the population. But, this community is policed by a force that is nearly 95 percent white. Politics failed and fueled the fire. Black residents were left out of the political process, with only 1 in 10 black voters participating in elections. And, this lack of participation was reflected in Ferguson’s institutions. The city council had 6 seats, but only one of those was held by an African-American. The mayor was white. The city manager was white. Why be surprised? With a 22 percent black poverty rate along with troubled residents and politicians with no vision, you end up with disillusionment and unrest. While it took many days for leaders to show concern and respond to the situation, we wondered why they weren’t talking about the core issues at play. Is it because police brutality and racism are not issues our political leaders want to address, particularly in election years? Are politicians afraid of taking on racially changed debates? Are they afraid of driving people of color to the polls in record numbers? Perhaps it is because they’re not willing stand up to political donors who prioritize police militarization over justice and equality.
