  • The United States of Cars: A Roundup of New Vehicles Named After American Places | Capital One

    A car's name can conjure up a specific image, whether it's a rugged mountain, a trendy city, or a relaxing beach. Automakers have long turned to appealing vacation-type destinations when naming their cars. Think about the Chevrolet Bel Air or the Chrysler New Yorker. These cars could prompt their drivers—or at least those flipping through vehicle brochures—to think of sunny Southern #California or sophisticated Manhattan.

    We pored over every 2023-model-year car, truck, and SUV sold by a major automaker in the U.S. to find out which states are the most popular for car names. Spoiler alert: Car manufacturers lean strongly toward #western states.

  • How A.I. is helping doctors detect cancer

    NBC medical fellow Dr. Akshay Syal added through deep learning this kind of technology could detect cancer "better than the human eye" by about 13%.

  • Gained in translation | Julie Hempel | TEDxAustinCollege

    Ever get the feeling that you just can’t find that one word you’re looking for? What if you were to learn it resides in a language entirely different from your own? Julie Hempel’s “Gained in Translation” explores the ways in which cultures are enriched by words, phrases, or concepts translated from other languages.

    Take a look around and you’ll find borrowed treasure tucked away into every corner of our daily discourse, from the wildly popular Squid Game to the kindergarten school year. Hempel reminds us that enriching our understanding of multiple languages can change our world in wonderful ways.

    Julie is a translator from Spanish to English. Her primary interests are the intersections of race, class, and gender in contemporary Mexican and Chicanx literature, as well as the hybrid identities in Asian-Latin American narrative and poetry.

    She has a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan in Latin American literature and teaches at Austin College, where she is also the Director of the Center for Southwestern and Mexican Studies. She has translated works by Mexican writers: Aurora Velasco, Carmen Villoro, Erik de Luna, and Peruvian writer: Siu Kam Wen.

    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

  • Ukraine's counter-offensive in the northern Kharkiv region has put the Kremlin on the back foot, Western analysts and politicians have said.

    This is said to explain President Vladimir Putin's mobilisation announcement, which could see 300,000 Russian’s summoned to serve in the war.

    The Ukrainian military is now trying to consolidate those recent gains.

    However, the city of Kupiansk, which was recently taken back from the Russians, is still coming under attack.
