11、Modern graffiti seems to have appeared in Philadelphia in the early 1960s, and by the late sixties it had reached New York. The new art form really took off in the 1970s, when people began writing their names, or “tags”, on buildings all over the city. In the mid-seventies it was sometimes hard to s

12、ee out of a subway car window, because the trains were completely covered in spray paintings known as masterpieces.In the early days, the “taggers” were part of street crowds who were concerned with marking their territory(领地). They worked in groups called “crews” and called what they did “writing”

13、the term “graffiti” was first used by The New York Times and the novelist Norman Mailer. Art galleries in New York began buying graffiti in the early seventies. But at the same time that it began to be regarded as an art form, John Lindsay, the then mayor of New York, declared the first war on graff

14、iti. By the 1980s it became much harder to write on subway trains without being caught, and instead many of the more established graffiti artists began using roofs of buildings.The debate over whether graffiti is art or deliberate damage is still going on. Peter Vallone, a New York city councilor, t

15、hinks that graffiti done with permission can be art, but if it is on someone elses property it becomes a crime. “I have a message for the graffiti destroyers out there,” he said recently, “and your freedom of expression ends where my property begins.” On the other hand, Felix, a member of the Berlin

16、-based group Reclaim Your City, says that artists are reclaiming cities for the public from advertisers, and that graffiti represents freedom and makes cities livelier.For decades graffiti has been a springboard to international fame for a few. Jean-Michel Basquiat began spraying on the street in th

17、e 1970s before becoming a respected artist in the 80s. The Frenchman Blek le Rat and the British artist Banksy have achieved international fame by producing complex works with stencils(模板), often making political or humorous points.

Six people who had received the stimulation（刺激）lost on avera

22、ge about 8 percent of the fat on their trunks in four months, scientists reported at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience,The headset stimulated the vestibular nerve（前庭神经）, which runs just behind the ears. That nerve sends signals to the hypothalamus, a brain structure thought to contr

23、ol the bodys fat storage. By stimulating the nerve with an electrical current, the technique shifts the body away from storing fat toward burning it.Six overweight and obese people received the treatment, consisting of up to four one-hour-long sessions of stimulation a week. Because it activated the

24、 vestibular system, the stimulation created the sensation of gently rocking on a boat or floating in a pool, said the studys co-author Jason McKeown of the University of California, San Diego.After four months, body scans measured the trunk fat for the six people receiving the treatment and three pe

25、ople who received unreal stimulation. All six in the treatment group lost some trunk fat, despite not having changed their activity or diet. In contrast, those in the unreal group gained some fat. Researchers suspect that changes in the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within human ce

26、lls are behind the difference. “The results were a lot better than we thought theyd be,” McKeown said.Earlier studies found that vestibular nerve stimulation causes mice to drop fat and pack on muscle, resulting in what McKeown called Schwarzenegger mice. Though small, the current study suggests tha

It was found by farmer James Bristle and his neighbor Trent Satterthwaite, who were reportedly digging

49、 in the field. At first, they couldnt figure out what they were seeing.“It was probably a rib bone that came up,” Bristle tells Ann Arbor News. “We thought it was a bent fence post.” Upon closer inspection, however, it became clear even to untrained eyes this was no fence post. “We knew it was somet

50、hing special.” Then they sped up the dig.After finding the bones Monday night, Bristle called the University of Michigan Tuesday morning to report his find.

Its still too early to tell exactly how it died, Fisher tells Detroits WWJ-TV, “but the skeleton showed signs of humans butchering.”

52、The bones are being temporarily stored nearby, according to the Free Press, and it remains unclear where theyll eventually end up. Their research value will be determined once theyve been cleaned and dried.Woolly mammoths once lived in Eurasia and North America, and most disappeared by 10,000 years
