#No Teatro São Pedro Minha irmã Dra. Maria Helena e eu, por gentil convite dos amigos Drs. Gilberto e Leonor Schwartsmann, assistimos dia 30/07 a última apresentação, no Teatro São Pedro, da peça de sucesso Gabinete de Curiosidades.
#Jacob van Ruisdael - Paisagem com uma vila a distância 1646 (Windows)
Os estudiosos da arte não consideram esta pintura uma obra-prima, nem mesmo uma das melhores obras do artista. Isso não é muito surpreendente, dado quem é o pintor: Jacob van Ruisdael é considerado por muitos como o maior paisagista da história da Holanda. O que pode ser surpreendente é que Van Ruisdael tinha apenas cerca de 18 anos quando terminou esse trabalho ambicioso. Também impressionante? "Paisagem com uma Vila à Distância" é apenas uma das 15 pinturas de paisagens conhecidas que o artista produziu somente em 1646. Seu talento é aparente aqui nesta obra de óleo sobre madeira, com sua grande escala, reprodução detalhada da folhagem exuberante e representação habilidosa de uma aldeia no horizonte. Esse trabalho inicial mostra um gênio em crescimento começando a desenvolver os músculos criativos.
"Paisagem com uma Vila à Distância" está na coleção do Metropolitan Museum of Art na cidade de Nova York.
Air traffic controllers face mandatory retirement at age 56, with exceptions up to 61. Commercial airline pilots must bow out at 65, same for foreign service employees. Physicians, however, have no age limit, regardless of specialty./.../
The Webb Space Telescope Is Already Reshaping Astronomy

In the days after the mega-telescope started delivering data, astronomers reported exciting new discoveries about galaxies, stars, exoplanets and even Jupiter.
New Number Systems Point Geometry Problem Toward a Real Solution
By KEVIN HARTNETT
The Kakeya conjecture predicts how much room you need to point a line in every direction. In one number system after another — with one important exception — mathematicians have been proving it true.
Everybody gets older, but not everyone ages in the same way. In this episode, Steven Strogatz speaks with Judith Campisi and Dena Dubal, two biomedical researchers who study the aging process.
A Massive Observation According to new observations, the heaviest neutron star is 20,000 light-years away from Earth and weighs 2.35 times as much as our sun. The record-holder owes its success to gas falling from a nearby orbiting star, reports Ken Croswell for Science News. What goes on in the hidden interiors of these dense and massive stars remains a mystery. Physicists have wondered if their cores consist of squishy and exotic “quark” matter, but new data released last year casts doubt on that model, as Jonathan O’Callaghan reported for Quanta.
Look Who’s Talking In the largest study of its kind, researchers proved that “baby talk” is much the same everywhere. Spanning 18 languages and six continents, the new research confirmed that adults adopt a sing-songy voice called “parentese” when singing or speaking to babies, reports Oliver Whang for The New York Times. Parentese is thought to make it easier for babies to learn language. When babies imitate the sounds they hear, they’re using vocal learning — an ability possessed by only a few species, notably humans and songbirds. In 2018, researcher Erich Jarvis chatted with Jordana Cepelewicz for Quanta about his work on vocal learning in songbirds and why it could help reveal how the human capacity for language evolved.
