Neurolinguistics: Language and Brain Function

The study of the relationship between language and the brain is called neurolinguistics. Although this is a relatively recent term, the field of study dates back to the nineteenth century.

Since that time, a number of discoveries have been made about the specific parts in the brain that are related to language functions. We now know that the most important parts are located in areas above the left ear.

Anatomy of Language Processing

In order to describe these areas in greater detail, we need to look more closely at some of the gray matter. If we conceptually dissect the brain—removing hair, scalp, skull, disconnecting the brain stem (which connects the brain to the spinal cord), and cutting the corpus...

Networking Fundamentals: Media and Frame Structure

Network Transmission Media (Layer 1 Components)

Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) Cable

Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable is a medium composed of four pairs of wires, used in diverse types of networks. Each wire pair is isolated from the rest.

Coaxial Cable

Coaxial cable is composed of a hollow outer cylindrical conductor that surrounds a single inner wire. This structure is composed of two conductive elements. One of these elements (located in the center of the cable) is a copper conductor.

Fiber Optics

Optical fiber cable is a networking medium that transmits data using modulated light. Compared to other networking media, it is more expensive; however, it is not susceptible to electromagnetic interference... Continue reading "Network Cabling Types and Data Frame Structure Explained" »

The Outbreak of Civil War

On July 17, 1936, a civil war erupted in Melilla, Ceuta, and Tetuan, and on July 18th, it spread to mainland Spain. An important sector of the army (Franco, Queipo de Llano, Mola, etc.), along with traditionalists and Falangists, staged a coup. The rebels seized control of governing bodies in some cities and established a board of military officers, intending to restore order and suppress popular unrest. Within two days, the rebels had secured several forts.

On July 19th, José Giral decided to arm militias (volunteer groups) of unions and parties of the Popular Front to stop the coup and defend the Republican government. General Goded led the uprising in Catalonia, but it received little support from the civilian population.... Continue reading "Spanish Civil War: A Nation Divided (1936-1939)" »
