“The sunlight illuminating House by the Railroad is bright enough to
cast deep shadows on the statelyVictorian mansion, but not to chase
away an air of sadness.The painting expresses Edward Hopper's
central theme: the alienation of modern life. Instead of happy,
anecdotal pictures celebrating the energy and prosperity of the
RoaringTwenties, Hopper portrayed modern life with unsentimental
scenes of either physical or psychological isolation. Most are set in
the city, where people often look uncomfortable and out of place.
Others, like House by the Railroad, picture solitary buildings in
commonplace landscapes. Hopper's House by the Railroad is
symbolic of the loss that is felt when modern progress leaves an
agrarian society behind.”

X was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Physics four times - in
1930, 1937, 1939 and 1940 never winning it. Incidentally, in 1930,
both CV Raman and X were nominated. Raman got the award for
his work on the diffusion of light and for the effect named after
him (Raman Effect).
According to the evaluation of the Nobel Prize Committee, X’s
work in astrophysics was appreciated, but not seen as a new
discovery; they felt it was more of an application to known
accumulated astrophysical data.
According to Rajinder Singh and Falk Riess in a 1999 issue of
Indian Journal of History of Science, the fact that Raman was
nominated by Niels Bohr, Johannes Stark and Ernest Rutherford,
who themselves were Nobel laureates, weighed in his favour.

Y’s confrontational lyrics originated in an extended piece of verse X
wrote in June 1965, when he returned exhausted from a grueling tour of
England.
During a difficult two-day preproduction, X struggled to find the essence
of the song, which was demoed without success in 3/4 time. A
breakthrough was made when it was tried in a rock music format, and
rookie session musician Al Kooper improvised the organ riff for which the
track is known. However, Columbia Records was unhappy with both the
song's length at over six minutes and its heavy electric sound, and was
hesitant to release it. It was only when a month later a copy was leaked to
a new popular music club and heard by influential DJs that the song was
put out as a single. Although radio stations were reluctant to play such a
long track, Y reached number two in the US Billboard charts and became
a worldwide hit.
The SongY was no.1 in Rolling Stone’s "500 Greatest Songs of AllTime“.

Roger Ebert, film critic of the Chicago Sun-Times, awarded
the film four stars to this 1996 film Y, stating, “X's Y lacks
the narcissistic intensity of Laurence Olivier's, but the film
as a whole is better, placing Y in the larger context of royal
politics, and making him less a subject for pity.“
Y currently holds a 95% rating at RottenTomatoes where it
states that the movie Y, “lives up to its source material,
using strong performances and a sharp cinematic focus to
create a powerfully resonant film that wastes none of its
246 minutes.“

The X sign is an example of a reflex mediated by
a reflex arc. As a consequence the movement is
possible in brain-dead patients whose organs have
been kept functioning by life-support machines,
precluding the use of complex involuntary motions
as a test for brain activity. It is a reflex movement
in brain-dead or brainstem failure patients, which
causes them to briefly raise their arms and drop
them crossed on their chests (in a position similar
to some Egyptian mummies).

In the 16th century, in the Brazilian colony, the Portuguese, like many
European colonists, chose to use slavery to supply the shortage of
workers. Portuguese colonists created large sugarcane farms, which
depended on the labor of slaves. Slaves, living in inhumane and
humiliating conditions, were forced to work hard and often suffered
physical punishment for small misbehaviors. Although slaves often
outnumbered colonists, rebellions were rare due to lack of weapons,
harsh colonial law, disagreement between slaves coming from different
African cultures and lack of knowledge about the new land.
Thus X was born as a simple hope of survival.A tool with which an
escaped slave, completely unequipped, could survive in the hostile,
unknown land and face the hunt of the armed and mounted colonial
agents who were charged with finding and capturing escapees. ID X?

In the song, X explains that he always wears _____ to

in it, although he preferred light blue in summer. “You
walk into my clothes closet. It’s dark in there,” he said.
Rolling Stone says the inky wardrobe was also helpful
when it came to hiding dirt and dust in the early touring
days.
