Introduction: In recent years, a number of researchers have recognized signs of past glacial activity on Mars and features that could be extant rock glaciers [1,2]. There has also been the recognition of " pasted on " terrains which are interpreted as dust-covered snow or ice deposits [3]. Many of these features are attributed to relatively recent (within the last several million years) periods...

the knowledge of Utopia u3 has become in the course of abstract ly p lann ing backwards. Now it seems possible that w3 m i g h t be r. So create a new hypothesis h. The above solution can be varlabalized using procedural abstraction [I lewitt 1971; Sussman 1973] into a procedure as follows

Online video, a ubiquitous, visual, and highly shareable medium, is well-suited to crossing geographic, cultural, and linguistic barriers. Trending videos in particular, by virtue of reaching a large number of viewers in a short span of time, are powerful as both influencers and indicators of international communication flows. In this work, we study a large set of videos trending across 57 nati...

The topography associated with the fundamental crustal dichotomy in much of eastern Mars can be largely ascribed to a single event: the very large impact which produced the Utopia Basin. Subsequent internal and surficial processes have been unable to remove the topographic signature of this basin. In particular, endogenic processes appear to have been ineffective in contributing to the basic di...

This paper challenges Alasdair MacIntyre's assertion that the modern firm such as Google, Unilever, or Microsoft is inimical to human flourishing within an Aristotelian framework. The paper begins by questioning MacIntyre's rendering ofutopian communities. It then addresses four specific criticisms ofthe modern firm to be found throughout MacIntyre's oeuvre, namely compartmentalisation, myopia,...

Nations stay together when citizens share enough values and preferences. Homogeneity amongst people can be built with education, teaching a common language to facilitate communication, but also by brute force such as prohibiting local cultures. Democracies and dictators have different incentives when it comes to choosing how much and by what means to homogenize the population. We study and we c...
