Extreme Temperatures Linked To Rise In Hate Tweets Study Shows

Researchers used artificial intelligence (AI) to identify roughly 75 million English-phrased hate tweets in a data set of more than 4 billion tweets posted in the United States between 2014 and 2020....

Eyes On Turkey

Why the fuss? Turkey is a firmly secular country. Though most Turks are Muslims, they’re still enthusiastic consumers of beer, wine and raki. Only the ultraconservative Islamic fringe has a problem with alcohol–the kind of people that Turkey’s secularist and politically powerful military wants to keep out of power. So when a politician whose party is topping the polls and looks like he might even rise to head a new government is embarrassed about having an un-Islamic can of beer in his house, Turkey’s secularists get a little nervous....

Eyewitness To Terror

Evidence of a Serbian bloodbath in Kosovo is building. NATO aerial photographs of possible mass graves released last week and a stream of refugee accounts have bolstered claims of atrocities inside the sealed-off province. According to Andre Lommen, a researcher for Human Rights Watch in Albania, some of the worst killings may have occurred in a band of villages in southwest Kosovo, near the town of Rahovec . Zhuniqi was one of four survivors of an alleged execution of perhaps a total of 60 people–most from one ethnic Albanian clan–between the villages of Bellacerka and Xerxe by a railroad bridge at 9 a....

Fabien Baron S Grand Designs

It’s no surprise that Madonna was the star at her own party-nor that Meisel, her house photographer, shared the spotlight. But graphic designers are not supposed to rank with Material Girls when it comes to candlepower. Yet there was Baron, a man known merely for what he can do with an ad layout or a magazine’s look, getting mobbed like a pop star. This is, of course, the age of the star....

Fabregas Loses Faultless Premier League Record In Chelsea Defeat

The Spain international had previously netted in 42 English top-flight games without coming unstuck.

He was, however, to see the Eagles hit back through Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke to claim a stunning derby success and inflict just a fourth Premier League defeat of the season on the Blues....
