Syriac-Arabic Glosses of Isho bar Ali. Volume 2
No full textThese two volumes constitute the second part (nun-taw) of the Syriac-Arabic dictionary of the 10th cent. physician Isho bar Ali (the first half of the dictionary had been published in 1874 by G. Hoffmann). Each Syriac word is defined in Arabic, often with more than one Arabic equivalent; in addition, the author deals not just with individual Syriac words, but in some cases with phrases. Gottheil used 21 manuscripts (from Oxford, London, Paris, Berlin, Leiden, and Rome) for this edition, and he has supplied a thorough critical apparatus; the manuscripts are described in the introduction. While some manuscripts give the Arabic glosses in Syriac characters (i.e. Garshuni), Gottheil has presented them here in Arabic script. These two volumes will be of great interest to Syriac lexicographers and those who study interactions between Syriac and Arabic.Contains an English introduction by Richard J.H. Gotthei

The Complete Muhammad Ali
No full textIncluding material and photographs not included in most of the 100 other books about the champion, Ishmael Reed's The Complete Muhammad Ali is more than just a biography-it is a fascinating portrait of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st. An honest, balanced portrayal of Ali, the book includes voices that have been omitted from other books. It charts Ali's evolution from Black Nationalism to a universalism, but does not discount the Nation of Islam and Black Nationalism's important influence on his intellectual development. Filipino American author Emil Guillermo speaks about how "The Thrilla' In Manila" brought the Philippines into the 20th century. Fans of Muhammad Ali, boxing fans, and those interested in modern African American history and the Nation of Islam will be fascinated by this biography by an accomplished American author.Intro -- DEDICATION -- INTRODUCTION -- The Curious History of an Icon -- CHAPTER 1 -- CHAPTER 2 -- CHAPTER 3 -- CHAPTER 4 -- CHAPTER 5 -- CHAPTER 6 -- CHAPTER 7 -- Did the Secret Government Fear a U.S. Muslim/Overseas Muslim Alliance? -- CHAPTER 8 -- CHAPTER 9 -- The Break Between the Prophet and his Disciple -- CHAPTER 10 -- CHAPTER 11 -- CHAPTER 12 -- The GOAT (Greatest Of All Time): Ali or Louis? -- CHAPTER 13 -- The Nation of Islam, the Mob, Showdowns in Canada and Sonny Liston -- CHAPTER 14 -- CHAPTER 15 -- The Taunts: Marketing or Racism? -- CHAPTER 16 -- CHAPTER 17 -- CHAPTER 18 -- CHAPTER 19 -- Boxing and the Brain -- CHAPTER 20 -- Ali's Feet -- CHAPTER 21 -- Mr. Dick -- CHAPTER 22 -- CHAPTER 23 -- The Opening Ceremonies, November 2005 -- CHAPTER 24 -- December 2005, Las Vegas -- CHAPTER 25 -- CHAPTER 26 -- June 16, 2004 -- CHAPTER 27 -- CHAPTER 28 -- CHAPTER 29 -- Aix-en-Provence -- CHAPTER 30 -- Ali as a Black Nationalist -- San Francisco, January 2004 Black Liberation Book Fair -- CHAPTER 31 -- January 31, 2004 -- CHAPTER 32 -- October 2005, Chicago -- CHAPTER 33 -- Why Ali remained with Elijah instead of following Malcolm -- CHAPTER 34 -- CHAPTER 35 -- February 4, 2006, Oakland, California -- CHAPTER 36 -- Like Zeus Descending from Mount Olympus -- CHAPTER 37 -- CHAPTER 38 -- Tuesday, February 28, 2006, New York -- CHAPTER 39 -- Bigger Than Boxing -- CHAPTER 40 -- Tribes Gallery, New York, April 2006 -- CHAPTER 41 -- June 2006, Louisville, Kentucky -- CHAPTER 42 -- CHAPTER 43 -- CHAPTER 45 -- Bad Company -- CHAPTER 46 -- Coxson, A Very Charming Rogue -- CHAPTER 47 -- Ali and the largest embezzlement scheme in Wells Fargo history -- CHAPTER 48 -- CHAPTER 49 -- "Lonnie is a stabilizing force."-Harry Belafonte -- October 29, 2006 -- CHAPTER 50 -- Abdul Rahman -- CHAPTER 51 -- CHAPTER 52 -- CHAPTER 53How Will Ali Be Remembered?

Comment on Stochastic Polyak Step-Size: performance of ALI-G
No full textThis is a short note on the performance of the ALI-G algorithm (Berrada et al., 2020) as reported in (Loizou et al., 2021). ALI-G (Berrada et al., 2020) and SPS (Loizou et al., 2021) are both adaptations of the Polyak step-size to optimize machine learning models that can interpolate the training data. The main algorithmic differences are that (1) SPS employs a multiplicative constant in the denominator of the learning-rate while ALI-G uses an additive constant, and (2) SPS uses an iteration-dependent maximal learning-rate while ALI-G uses a constant one. There are also differences in the analysis provided by the two works, with less restrictive assumptions proposed in (Loizou et al., 2021). In their experiments, (Loizou et al., 2021) did not use momentum for ALI-G (which is a standard part of the algorithm) or standard hyper-parameter tuning (for e.g. learning-rate and regularization). Hence this note as a reference for the improved performance that ALI-G can obtain with well-chosen hyper-parameters. In particular, we show that when training a ResNet-34 on CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100, the performance of ALI-G can reach respectively 93.5% (+6%) and 76% (+8%) with a very small amount of tuning. Thus ALI-G remains a very competitive method for training interpolating neural networks
Liquid racism and the ambiguity of Ali G
No full text This article analyses Ali G through the concept of ‘liquid racism’. As a polysemic and elusive form, liquid racism requires reflexivity in order to critique it fully, and is a racism that, in media representation, often polarizes debate of its meaning. The article explains how academics have struggled to explain Ali G’s relationship to racism, how his ambiguity is complicated by some social actors seeing him as a real person, before it explains how Ali G expresses three strands of liquid racism. These are ‘postmodern minstrelsy’ — Ali G as a black man, ‘ethnocultural hybrid racism’ — Ali G as a white man pretending to be black, and ‘anti-Asian racism’ — Ali G as an Asian man pretending to be black. It is the combination of the three and the erasure they inflict on one another that creates liquidity. Finally, some non-racist themes in Baron Cohen’s comedy are outlined that encourage analytic confusion. </jats:p

Following this, a rather detailed interview schedule with mostly open-ended (unstructured) questions were prepared. And than, a very successful and productive face to face interview was realised with the author.Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’nin en önemli yaşayan siyaset sosyologlarından biri olan Ali Yaşar Sarıbay konu edildi. Yaşayan bilim - düşün insanlarını konu edinen araştırmanın zorlukları bu alanda çalışan herkesçe bilinir. Araştırmada, bu zorlukların yaratabileceği sorunları en aza indirgeyebilmek için analitik bir bakış açısından ziyade betimleyici bir tutum tercih edildi.Bu amaç doğrultusunda önce hem elektronik hem de matbu ortamlarda geniş bir literatür taraması yapıldı. Ardından Prof. Dr. Ali Yaşar Sarıbay’ın, ulaşılabilen bütün eserleri okundu. Derlenen bilgilerden yola çıkılarak oldukça ayrıntılı bir görüşme kılavuzu hazırlandı. Bunları müteakiben Ali Yaşar Sarıbay Hoca ile yüz yüze, saatler süren bir mülakat gerçekleştirildi. Araştırmanın temel veri kaynağını bu görüşmede elde edilen bilgiler oluşturdu
