Whatever its defects, the study could have a major impact as development of the V chip begins. "This is the foundation of any rating system that will be developed," says Representative Edward Markey of Massachusetts, the V chip's original champion in Congress. The irony is that some of the most objectionable shows, in the survey's view, are cartoons and other children's shows: they are the ones that portray violence "unrealistically," without consequences or punishment. "When you show a young kid somebody being run over and they pop back up without harm, that's a problem," says Donnerstein...
...night. Sloan recalled 50 years later that Henri was "a catalyst, an enthusiast ... with the pioneer's contempt for cant and aestheticism." Moreover, he was genuinely interested in the young, and was to inspire several generations of students--not only his younger contemporaries like Sloan and Bellows, but Edward Hopper and Stuart Davis, the Dadaist Man Ray and, strange to say, Leon Trotsky, who briefly studied art at the Ferrer School in New York when Henri was teaching there...

The show highlights etchings done since etching became a rare artistic medium--that is, since the invention of photography and less expensive print processes allowed for mass-production of illustrations and rendered etching an inefficient process...

(A rule-of-thumb definition of recession is a decline in national output that lasts at least two consecutive quarters.) Very few of his colleagues agree, but many of them believe that right now output is growing at an annual rate of only 1% or so. The National Association of Purchasing Management is more pessimistic. Enough of its members reported their companies' manufacturing output declining in January to suggest that the economy as a whole...
