@rex -- Wishing you well on your trip! Leave it to Peter to come up with a theme that has never been done before -- a totally original theme -- yet one so simple and obvious, it makes me think, "Why has this never been done before?" Which makes me realize that there are things out there that are waiting to be discovered that ought to have already been discovered! Which is exciting and disquieting at the same time. And ironic. I should have realized this long ago.

@rex some young folks these days call any song a “record,” no matter how they listen to it, so vinyl feels important for millennials. (See any interview of Chance the Rapper talking about his music, for example.) I would naturally assume that a record was vinyl, but tons of folks wouldn’t.

Though come to think of it, you’re right, “classic” is doing all the work. Vinyl *is* redundant.

I had trouble with the north central, too. Had Out for not working. Didn't know MARK. Had OLDlp for vinyl. I don't know Spanish so I was stuck. I googled "Mark Ru" and that got me redirected. I liked the puzzle just fine. Coincidentally I ran across THIS GEM the other day.

Come on Rex, admit it. This was a terrific puzzle for a Tuesday: fresh, smart and fun to solve.

I can't recall enjoying a theme less. [Well, sure I can. Any quote theme.] Third-rate, pointless Hollywood Trivia masquerading as something I should care about. Also, Rex missed ANTHONY HOPKINS/Alfred Hitchcock as a themer. I give him a pass on that. Prepping for vacation eats up a lot of time.

This theme reminded me of a trailer I just saw for that new DeLorean movie. It says "Alec Baldwin is Alec Baldwin." I guess someone felt the idea of him portraying the title character didn't work? Anyway I have to disagree with the others. This seemed like a dumb theme. I'm not surprised it hasn't been done before. Who cares that the initials are the same? Especially with these "oldie" actors. Also the phrase is "on a lark" not "as a lark." And I know some doodlers who are anything but idle. And then there's ATEAM, CNOTE, IKNOW, IBEAM, and I guess you could add ASIDE. Any puzzle with NBAERS seems subpar. SUEME.

I had trouble in the west for two reasons. First was AS A LARK, which I've always heard as "on a LARK". I wonder if that's a regional distinction. But my bigger problem was that the NY Times doesn't know how to escape special characters in their clues in the app. In the official NYT crossword app, the clue for 30D reads: What " . That's it. So I had no idea what the heck they were going for, and needed pretty much all the crosses to get it. It wasn't until I finished and looked at the puzzle on my laptop that I could see what the clue was supposed to be. Shame on you, NYT.

I'm with @Joe R.--should be "on a lark". I dunno, I just did it ASALARK, said no one ever. And DEARTH took forever, even with most of the letters. Great word. Liked seeing the "Blues Brothers" reference. My go-to Halloween getup for school was always one of the brothers (Which one? Don't know.) mainly because I inherited my Dad's wonderful black fedora, and the rest of the outfit was easy enough to assemble. Hey look! the kids would say--One of the Men in Black! I would then show them the amazing chase/car crash scene from the end of the movie, just so they'd know what they were missing. The work of an educator is never done. Nice enough Tuesday gimmick, but I think these were all movies I hadn't seen or forgotten. Everything else, smooth as a smelt. Thanks PG.

Normalcy is a made up word for normality

I wonder if there's a computer program that can research this sort of thing? Because this must be a real pain in the neck to research on your own, without computer help. (Unless long-forgotten screen character names like Linda Marolla and Jefferson Smith are somehow emblazoned on your memory. They're can't be, can they, Peter Gordon?) But all that work, all that effort in managing to come up with these mildly interesting coincidences -- and then the solver arrives. Fizzle, fizzle. The solver snoozes her way through it. At least this one did. All the same initials theme accomplished was to make a much-too-easy puzzle even easier. I wish less time had been spent on the research and more time had been spent on making the clues livelier and more colorful.

I liked this very much, a fun fast Tuesday morning solve, although to me it seemed easy enough for a Monday. Love each and every every theme actor and have seen all the movies except one yet never realized the characters and actors shared initials. What a clever idea for a crossword! As @Lewis said- why didn’t someone think of this before? Great job Mr. Gordon!

I know “on a lark” but I had never heard of “as a lark” before this morning. What’s with the superfluous “literally” in the review. I thought he was an English professor.

Hand up for ONALARK, always have heard such; never AS.... OTHERWISE nice Tues puz.

They can't be. I originally wrote: "They're not, are they?" and changed it. Why don't I ever remember to proofread before pressing "Submit"? Seems that @Quasi and I had the same reaction to this puzzle.

Hey All ! No one noticed the 16 long grid? Well, it is. :-) Why? Peter needs to come here and shed some light. Anyway, theme was cool in the fact of the Actor's initials matching the characters they played. I'm sure it's happened more than we realize. Kinda not too thrilled about ANTHONY HOPKINS being switched in linear Acrosses. Although, now that I look at it, theoretically it is first name first (as in, the left side of grid), last name last (on the right of grid), si I guess it works. Lots of good fill. Not too many ERRs today. album-OLDIE, eatIN-ATEIN. Rex finishes in 3 minutes and change, and then complains he starts out too slow. Funny stuff. I finished in 3x Rex. Which is fast for me. And I'm not complaining. :-) NORMALCY OTHERWISE RooMonster DarrinV

Having a lot of electrical work done and they just took down my internet-/ so a quick note from my phone. The trouble with the theme is that each clue gives it away— there’s no extra level to puzzle out. @Joe Palmer, Calvin Coolidge might beg to disagree. And note that the clue is an unusual word form as well.

The clue for “bikerbar” seems to suggest there are pigs in front of the establishment. It should have read Hogs (capitalized) instead. While some Hogs may be pigs, many of us aren’t. For the uninitiated, Hogs are Harley Davidson riders and HOG (all caps) stands for Harley Owners Group.

Wow. This was bad. The theme clues essentially say, "find the actor with these initials who starred in this movie." It's a rote exercise. And the theme answers are all white, with at least two of the five has-beens or dead. There was nothing snappy or fresh or new about this puzzle. Just because it's Tuesday, it doesn't have to be boring. I especially hated seeing the all-too-common ATEAM in 1 across. Like many people, I start the puzzle there, and it's a downer to fill in a word it seems I've written 10 times in puzzles every other day. Meh.

I believe "a return to normalcy" was Warren Harding's (post-WWI) campaign slogan.

A Monday level Tuesday. Today's solve was ten seconds faster than yesterday's. Not surprising for a theme based on easily recognized names surrounded by easy fill.

I’ve been retired for 10+ years, and with no set schedule I sometimes lose track of just what day it is. Having an “easy even for a Monday” puzzle on a Tuesday, isn’t helping me one bit!

Re: "as a lark", I do hear that, but only as part of "happy as a lark".

I don't have a lot to say here. Puzzle didn't knock my socks off but as a Tuesday work out, it did the job. I winced a little at the SHE/HIM pairing. "That's HIM" is in the vernacular though grammatically incorrect, while "That's SHE," while correct sounds pretty arch and, well, "la di da." I'd have preferred consistency, but the neighborhood was too diverse for that. Back home after a family vacation in Emerald Isle. Miss the kids and grands like crazy but delighted to get the sand out of my toes. I'm more a mountains' girl myself but the majority likes the ocean, and being together obliterates any mild preference I may have. So home to work, dogs, weeds, overgrown lawn, and quiet.

Buffaloed briefly by that Mark guy in the NW, but bellied right up to the trough with all the bar hogs after that less than auspicious start. Maybe Rex can drop by the blog with a traveling link or two? Finding what he likes might calm a few of his resident critics? And will he have lunch with Evil Doug? Looking forward to the new guest commentaries 😉

Super fast, unlike my running. I’ve been investigating my genealogy lately, working with DNA and haplogroups, so RNA seemed familiar.

I've been lurking but not blogging for a while but thought I'd pop in to express an opinion on what seems to be a constant recurrence with OFL. It seems whenever his time is a bit slower than normal, it was because..."I just woke up", "had a little drink," the theme is poor, etc. i.e. always an excuse. As for today, how could the NW be tough with the ATEAM and ATM gimmes?

Forgot to thank Offthegrid for his GEM 💎 link which was definitely worth the listen even without being on Vinyl.

Yup - 30D in the app should have read: What “<“ means. Mini theme?: Doubles: TATA SOSO TUTU Fun, fast Tuesday solve. Thanks PG!

Movie people. Meh. I can't possibly be the only person who's heard "as a lark" used. "Oldies" is a very specific Radio station genre. I have a few thousand vinyl records yet very few "oldies". In my youth, Hog referred specifically to the Electra Glide and not to other Harleys or their riders. Interesting to hear how that's changed. In my NYT app version, the clue for 30D is "Symbol above the comma on a keyboard" "Return to normalcy". Yeah, that ain't gonna happen any time soon.

Who are these people GASP! making up new words? Hand up for the Meh! reaction. That actors and their characters share initials on occasion strikes me as a big yawner. @Nancy - Mr Gordon is just the sort of guy who would have known all these and more without relying on a database. @Outside the Box - “Hog” is also slang for the motorcycle, and the clue references all the Harley’s outside a BIKER BAR. I’ve never heard HOG used to reference a Harley owner, but I’ve only ever known two well and neither was the sort to join a Harley Owner Group. Anyway, I don’t think slang for the cycles would need capitalization. On the LAM, AS A LARK, on a LARK... I’m fine with either LARK as clued, but I’ve never really known what a LAM is. Can one being anything other than “on the LAM? Is the word use any other way ever? Who made up the word and why do we still use it?

I associate this constructor with proper nouns, so it was no surprise that the theme consisted of more names. The fact that the featured actors have the same initials as their roles was underwhelming to say the least. Must add to the objections to AS A LARK. Maybe it would work as a description of how one dressed for Halloween. OTHERWISE no. Just no. And, by the way, he was usually known JIMMY Stewart. I did like BIKER BAR and SUE ME. But, for this solver, this puzzle provided a DEARTH of enjoyment.

NORMALCY Is almost as old “normality.” Personally amused by the use of “purists” in the link. I have a different term I use. Anyway, it’s common usage is 100 years old, whatever we think of Harding’s linguistic stylings. Being one syllable shorter and keeping the same stresses as the root, I think NORMALCY is the better word. I suspect “regularness” is a nod to the “purists,” and also avoids the gastric implications of “regularity.”

Fun, but very easy for a Peter Gordon puzzle.

Easy. My experience was the same as @puzzlehoarder’s. Not bad for a Tues. Liked it more than some of you did.

A great puzzle for film buffs, so I'm willing to overlook the horrible NBAERS, which sadly has become acceptable crosswordese. Not bothered by the whole JAMES v. Jimmy debate, since he was credited as JAMES in nearly everything he ever appeared in, some TV work aside. So it sounded perfectly natural to me. MARKRUFFALO was the only one to give me pause, but that’s my own fault for not having seen “Spotlight” yet.

Malsdemare re: 64D, 65D: neither clue had any reference to syntax, so either subjective or objective case is correct. I thought it kinda clever that the constructor changed it up on us. The fact that you find the correct use of the nominative/subject case “la-di-dah” indicates how tolerant we’ve become of poor grammar.

@Jeremy: Though come to think of it, you’re right, “classic” is doing all the work. Vinyl *is* redundant. ??? I have CD re-masters of 'classic' jazz from the 1920s. There are current vinyl releases, and more each day, as well as oldie/classic vinyl pressings just going out the door. Virtually any 'oldie' anyone can name is now on CD, and many on new vinyl. So, let's parse: Any classic vinyl record any classic record - can be new vinyl, old vinyl, CD all with old music any vinyl record - can be new vinyl with new music, new vinyl with old music, old/old

As a cinephile, I loved this puzzle. Mostly because I've never made the same-initials correlation with any of these roles, all of which I recognize. 30D gave me pause because I was only working Down clues and ASALARK made zero sense without reading the clue. Having looking at the Across clues after finishing, 6A should've been, "classic on the radio." Side note, people complaining about movie clues should get out more. 13:55, working only Down clues, which is my new thing for M-W. Personal best.

I am often reminded how liberating it feels to be unshackled from the pressure of completing these crosswords as quickly as possible. My times are decent but would be better if I took steps to limit distractions, print out the puzzle and just fill with wild abandon. I realize others differ. The inclusion of OLDIES seems like the perfect opportunity to promote my own blog, in which I listen to the entire catalogues of both Prince and David Bowie, one song at a time. Catch it at princevbowie.blogspot.com. Please. You could be the first to comment!

@Joe D Couldn't agree more that the ATE IN clue (Didn't do takeout at a restaurant) is just awful. IMO, best comment of the day goes to @Z's gastric implications of “regularity.”

Put me with @Nancy and @Quasi and everyone else who thought this was a big nothing. It boils down to a list of random actors. The fact that they happened to play characters with their own initials once doesn't make them crossworthy as a group. Let's talk about the clue for 54d: "Didn't do takeout at a restaurant", the answer to which is ATE IN. It seems to me that if you order takeout at a restaurant you *are* planning to bring the food home and eat in. Eating out means getting a table in the restaurant and eating the food there. So wtf is up with that? Anyway. It'd be a good day to hit the beach if it weren't so cloudy. So, apropos of 6a and 71a, here's WABC Radio's #9 song for this week in 1964 to take us there instead. ♪ Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes he smiles but she doesn't see ♪

My coworker asked me how the commentariat felt about this puzzle because he and I were underwhelmed with the theme, as so many here were. It was easy but I had my share of writeovers so it did provide the proper amount of Tuesday entertainment. _L___ as 6A's "Any classic vinyl record" became aLbum and messed up the north central pretty badly until DEARTH was unearthed. I messed up my brother a couple of Christmases ago. He always asks me for suggestions in music for his present to me so I use that opportunity to ask for a few "classic" releases that I want but am reluctant to shell out for when I'm at the record store. I get all my music on CDs still but this time, in my text to him, I used the word "album" which to me covers any multiple song release but to him meant 33 1/3 LP vinyl record. I was shocked to get two LPs as my Christmas present - I haven't owned a turntable in decades. Not only that, they were remastered and cost a pretty penny (brother left the receipt in the package by mistake.) So when I returned the LPs to the store and used the store credit to buy CDs, I got seven CDs in exchange for the two which is a much bigger present than I usually get from my brother! Like @Joe R 8:06, I heard "on A LARK" in my head for 29A but held off on the "on" because I had my suspicions. I think @kitshef is onto something with "happy AS A LARK" being where that belongs.

I might have finished this in record time if I had remembered how BELUSHI spelled his name and hadn't put in Ass instead of APE making it harder for HOPKINS name to come to mind. But any day I'm at 2x instead of the usual 3x, I'm happy. I didn't find the theme that interesting, but enough of a cinephile to enjoy it anyway.

Peter Gordon always likes movies-related clues & answers, so this is a big hunk out of his M.O. Knew all the actors/actresses, and had seen all the movies. MARKRUFFALO will surely be the toughest get of the litter, tho. Lotsa cool longball answers in this puppy. Also, nice twinge of desperation, with ASALARK. Weeject stacks artistically adorn all four puzcorners today. staff weeject pick was tough, as nuthin stood out. Will go with TAJ, as it is at least a TAU-teaser. I don't see a single ?-clue in the whole entire clue portfolio. Astoundin. That doesn't seem like part of the Gordon M.O. at all, even for a TuesPuz. Needed a little somethin to juice things up, maybe -- as the theme was good but non-humor oriented. Clue for UNWRITTEN was at least kinda cryptic-like. OLDIES clue didn't throw m&e at all, btw. Unless U wanna argue over whether stuff like Scheherazade on vinyl is an OLDIE, or not, I reckon. Thanx for the fun with flicks, Mr. Gordon. Masked & Anonymo3Us p.s. yo, @RP: Have just a wonderful trip. Santa Fe is A1-primo … especially the downtown area. We always stay at the Inn on the Alameda; kinda expensive, but nice parkin, and a 3-block walk from downtown, and they feed U a great breakfast and afternoon wine/cheese hour. Georgia O'Keeffe's art museum is a near-must. Folk Art museum is cute. Tomasita's, the Shed, and about a hundred other great Mexican restaurants there'bouts. There's even a place with terrific Mexican breakfasts downtown, just a bit off the square, if U stay at a crashpad without breakfast included. Enjoy.

@Joe DiPinto someone should write a song called "The Girl from IPA NEMO," about a bikini-clad beauty who dazzles beachcombers with her use of arcane crosswordese.

I remember enjoying the solve last night, woke up and couldn't remember anything about the puzzle. Underwhelmed enough I can't be bothered to go look. @Mary McCarthy 11:58 - Case is pretty non-existent in English. It's okay to let it go. MOPEDS AWAKEN Mark, in Mickey's North 40

Enjoyed adding DEARTH to short list of favorite words this week, also includes GLOMS.

@Quasi -- good idea. When she passes, she smiles and says,"Etui!"

Anyone watching the Women’s Semifinals match notice the Verizon ad? He didn’t say “normality.”

@JC66 - Thanks, but I nominate @Quasimojo’ Girl from IPA NEMO.

Har Relooked at grid, now I see why it is 16 long. The two Down names are 12's, which would leave a block and then only two squares. Takes the ole brain a minute or two to work properly. :-) And they intersect ANTHINY HOPKINS. Nice. Have a fun trip, Rex. Don't get in too much trouble! RooMonster

@Mary McCarty. I'm sorry I wasn't more clear. I know either could be correct depending upon the usage; I just found the juxtaposition disconcerting. As a copy editor, I'm one of the grammarians who says, "This is she" to phone queries. But in casual conversation, saying "That's she" sounds stilted.

My high school biology teacher said “as a lark”, asking a small gang of us why we had decided it would be fun to sign her in at the office before she had arrived at school. It was over 60 years ago but I remember, because we got caught. We didn’t get caught somehow breaking into the records and looking at our IQ scores. Strangely, we were all really good at taking IQ tests. Not so good at avoiding pointless risky behavior. I was sorrier about that caper than I was about the sign-in sheet, though: I noticed my raw score stayed the same year after year, but my age got bigger so the result was, the “Quotient” kept getting smaller. I was good at math and calculated that a little after I graduated from college I probably wouldn’t be able to tie my own shoes. I hadn’t yet read “Flowers for Algernon” (a year or two later, I guess), but I felt like that, seeing my mental decline start, and knowing it was not going to stop.

I like this one, nice to get a leg up filling in all the first letters of the theme answers. I didn’t know 17A, but once I had MARK R in place I said “Oh yeah, that RUFFALO guy”. No Wite Out needed today. @gthree, from yesterday. I’m a little old fashioned and like to do the puzzle on paper using ink because it’s a lot easier to read than lead pencil. @Rex, safe travels.

I’m posting late because I’m sorta hoping no one will dignify my tawdry question with a response, but ... Am I the only solver who read the 18D clue and, just for one awful moment, wondered if the answer could possibly allude to Bill Clinton? (I’m so sorry. I won’t comment again before Labor Day, I promise.)

@Z et al Late to the game, but @Joe Bleaux* (above) takes the cake. *Don't make us wait that long.

Both "on a lark" and "as a lark" are expressions in English. See: Merriam-Webster: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/on/as%20a%20lark Also, "for a lark": https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/lark I didn't even flinch when I saw "as a lark," as both that and "on a lark" are common in my experience. Surprised so many people have only heard as "on a lark." (I even did a quick sanity check at a message board I frequent, and "as a lark" meaning something like "spontaneously fun" was commonly used. Even this recent Chicago Tribune article (May 12, 2019), uses the phrase: http://digitaledition.chicagotribune.com/infinity/article_share.aspx?guid=7b1b7f8d-d209-4631-9f40-6a3118143b85 "Much as I love accessories (especially jewelry), I’ve never been a fan of ankle bracelets. Well, maybe as a lark on the beach on some island vacation." Perhaps it is regional, but it's not some weird, made-up phrase for the purpose of the crossword.

@JC66 - Agreed. Seems too fitting an observation from a guy with that nom de blog, though. I had the following all set to go on my iPad, but never hit publish: @Outside the Box - Origin of “hog” The same story is repeated almost verbatim on several sites, including an archived timeline from an old Harley-Davidson corporate website that is linked to on the wikipedia page about the company, so it seems to be legit.

@Quasi, @Z, and @Joe Bleaux, you made my day. The puzzle didn’t.

On Tuesday July 2nd, would-be presidential spouse Asa Lark was spotted in the New York Times Crossword. Some eyewitnesses were dismayed by his appearance, saying that it really should have been his wife Ona, the actual candidate for the presidency, who attended the event. "That's okay", said Mrs. Lark, as she likes to call herself. "Asa's been keeping such a low profile lately, I told him he really should get out there more to greet my supporters. I want them to see what I have to put up with at home, and why I'm running, so to speak." Not all attendees were happy with this explanation.. Pabloinnh felt, "It should be Ona." Teedmn was "suspicious" of the ploy, while Joseph M was adamantly against it: "No. Just no." Others didn't care one way or the other about the marital switch-up. "I'm fine with either Lark," said an attendee who went by the letter Z. In any case, Mr. Lark's presence was soon eclipsed by that of actor Anthony Hopkins, who came in and took a seat across the aisle.

@Joe Bleaux, your comment was enough to make me go back and look. Almost did a nose-beer spurt. Thanks!

@Joe Dipinto (8:59) -- You've been cracking me up all day. Your post just now is delightful, but not nearly as funny as your blog profile. You see, I was intrigued earlier by your comment that it would have been a wonderful beach day had it not been cloudy. I went to your profile to see where you live, since I thought today in NYC was humid and highly unpleasant, and that the clouds were the best part of it, only there weren't enough of them. I discovered that you also live in NYC, but in another borough. But while glancing at your profile, I happened to look down and see what you listed under "Favorite Books". And I laughed out loud -- and really, really hard. Absolutely hilarious!!!

In Bubba Land, and the housing project I grew up in, Bill was right: he didn't have sex with that woman. One ain't the other. The Left Wing Loonies always want to split hairs, but in Bubba's case it's all the same.

@Nancy -- I thought I've mentioned here that I live in Brooklyn. Anyway I just checked out *your* profile and that's a very nice photo of Central Park lake (I think?). You have a lot more details in yours. I agree with you on Dylan, btw -- never could stand his voice. But I do like "Psycho". Well I do have a soft spot for our little unfinished opus. And I have it all saved, in case we want to reboot it at some point. Copies available upon request...

This was easy for me. I equaled my best Tuesday time and might have bested it had it not been for my initial misspelling of Ruffalo. Anyway, this was surprisingly smooth and enjoyable for me.

OTHERWISE SUEME IKNOW there are UNWRITTEN rules, and a DEARTH of ETHICs to park cars, but nothing LESSTHAN half-BAKEd fools would park MOPEDS at BIKERBARs. --- SGT. ERIN ASTER

Yeah, I had JiMmySTEWART and then onALARK before checking crosses. ATEAM, IBEAM, and CNOTE are sure to get @spacey’s attention; they coulda done it to ASIDE, too. Even in an over-size grid 26 threes is too many. SUEME if I'm wrong. The only line in any of LIZAMINNELLI’s movies that I recall might never even have been spoken: “Would you like to peel a tomato?” SHE had it written on a sign. Yeah baby for that. I wouldn’t be able to pick MARKRUFFALO out of a line-up. Does he belong? Which one of these is not like the others? OTHERWISE, a LESSTHAN ordinary Tues-puz.

Actually, I'm kinda getting used to the more common, in-the-language letter add-ons, of which these three (listed by @rondo) are examples. Much more troubling to me is the horrid 50-down, an entry without which this puzzle surely would have scored a solid birdie. Know what would have been hilarious? "Actor with the same initials as John Malkovich, his role in "Being John Malkovich." The ultimate gimme. But these themers are fine, agreeing that the leadoff one is the outlier. Lots of very nice fill; it almost seems as though the constructor tired of his efforts to keep it clean by the time he finished up in the SW. Surely that can be reworked to get 50-down out of there. Hand up for (IMO) the far more common onALARK. Caused a writeover. I like pairing symmetrical entries: MARITAL MINGLES: a swingers club? OTHERWISE UNWRITTEN: Trump's tweets? Ick, enough of that. DOD LIZAMINNELLI makes a rare appearance. A little too easy, but clues were dumbed down to fit the Tuesday slot. Sadly, there's a DEARTH of YACHTS in my life. I gotta go see the Penguin. Birdie, anyway.

Easy AND clever. Finding and fitting those initialed names is a pretty impressive work of construction and a fun solve to boot. Not OTHERWISE bothered by tcrosswordese in this very nicely done piece of work by PG.

And here I thought Alfred Hitchcock played Alfred Hitchcock - is all those cameos. Silly me. Kind of just spot on for a Tuesday. Noted the @Spacey-esque "letter then word" answers, as did @Rondo. And then the NBA came into play... We have an SST, a TIARA, a STYE, and an ASTER - where is my Oreo? (I guess they're the DEARTH today) Diana, LIW

@D,LIW - your OREO is in the Universal Crossword (edited by DS)today

I thought the theme was merely so-so, but what brought me here was the clumsy clue for OLDIE. I like to get sanity checks for clues I think are bad, so I'm glad Rex and everyone else agree. Bobby Darin's "Mack the Knife" is an oldie even though I have it on my iPod, and Pachelbel's Canon isn't considered an oldie just because my parents have a vinyl record of it from the 1950s; classic vinyl record doesn't equal oldie. To me, AS A LARK sounds more natural than "on a lark" (though I wouldn't flinch at either), so maybe it's a regional matter. It was fun to see BIKER BAR in a puzzle, and it was a witty clue with "hog" being longtime slang for a motorcycle. Thanks to the answer starting LIZAM... (what else could it be?) and the above-average number of across clues, this was the rare 15x16 grid where I deduced the nonstandard height early on, before making a mess of the graph paper and wondering why answers weren't fitting.

5 Popular Understandings of the Past: Interpreting History through Graphic Novels

Kees Ribbens is an endowed professor of popular historical culture and war at Erasmus University Rotterdam and a senior researcher at NIOD Institute for War, Holocaust and Genocide Studies in Amsterdam. Popular historical culture and public history, in particular concerning World War II and memories and representations of war and mass violence in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, are among his key interests.

This chapter presents an overview of the development of historical narratives combining visual and textual elements in comic strips and graphic novels. History comics developed strongly during the 1940s and 1950s and became popular, in particular among young readers in Western Europe and North America. Having gained increased cultural respectability, comics more recently also obtained an adult audience. Two internationally renowned educational comics from the Anne Frank House, published in the first decade of the twenty-first century, illustrate how comics are nowadays capable of representing sensitive topics from recent history, in particular World War II and the Holocaust. Yet, combining fact and fiction requires a balanced way of (re)presenting, involving discussions among historians and others on what may be possible and desirable in this specific war of making history public.

Teaching With Infographics | Places to Start

Update: Feb. 29, 2012 Please note: The original video we used for this post was a video podcast by Gestalten TV in which New York Times Graphics Director Steven Duenes and Graphics Editor Archie Tse describe how their team works with breaking news to create clear, concise visualizations of data for readers. Since that has now been taken down, we have substituted a classic TED talk by David McCandless that we refer to in the post.

We’re declaring this week Infographics Week on The Learning Network because we know how important it is for students to be able to read and interpret visual representations of information — and because The New York Times consistently creates useful and elegant examples that we think teachers across the curriculum should know about.

Not only do charts, graphs and maps show up on standardized tests of all kinds, but whiteboard technology has made the graphic depiction of information that much more useful and ubiquitous in classrooms.

We have a lot to say about this topic and scores of interesting examples to show you, so we’re breaking it down over five days:

Monday: This post: What infographics are, and some places in and outside The Times to see good ones Tuesday: The best Times infographics for social studies, history, civics and economics Wednesday: The best Times infographics for science and health Thursday: The best Times infographics for English language arts, fine arts and entertainment Friday: How one class learned to create their own infographics , with guest blogger Diana Laufenberg, a teacher in Philadelphia

Let us know how you teach with infographics, and please add your own examples to our lists each day!

Update: We’re putting the whole collection here , and we’ll continue to update and add to it in the future.

Places to Start Learning About Infographics

Places to Start on The Learning Network

Our collection Great Ways to Teach ANY Day’s Times has a number of graphic organizers students can use to begin recording and analyzing almost any kind of data. Here are two that are especially useful:

• Activity Sheet: A Graph Is Worth a Thousand Words, or At Least 50 Students write a textual explanation of a graph clipped from The Times Teacher Instructions | Student Sheet
• A Graphic Interpretation Students use data provided in a Times article to create a graph or chart Teacher Instructions | Student Sheet

Places to Start on NYTimes.com

We’ll be giving you subject-specific examples all week, but here are good spots to find interesting data visualization in general in The Times:

• New York Times Data Visualization Lab Create visual representations of data and information using the “Many Eyes” technology from IBM Research. Example: Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address
• Multimedia Index Example: Tracking the Oil Spill in the Gulf
• Charles M. Blow is The Times’s visual Op-Ed columnist. Example: Justin Bieber for President
• Charles M. Blow’s By the Numbers blog Example: Chart Abuse
• Abstract City Blog Christoph Niemann’s work is more illustration than infographic, but we thought readers would want to know about it anyway. Example: I Lego N.Y.

Sources Around the Web for Interesting Infographics

We’ve chosen one or two classroom- or kid-friendly examples from each of the following, though in some cases the graphic was made by the authors of the site or blog itself, and in others the purpose of the site or blog is simply to collect good examples from around the Web.

Update: Feb. 29, 2012: Here is an excellent list from Daily Tekk of “Over 100 Incredible Infographic Tools and Resources (Categorized)”

• flowingdata.com Example: Understanding Shakespeare with Visualization Example: How to Win Rock-Paper-Scissors Every Time
• Information Is Beautiful Example: International Number Ones
• Good Magazine infographics Example: The Most Controversial Books in America
• Cool Infographics Example: Time Travel in Popular Movies and TV

I recently found //www.onlineschooling.net which exists solely to make educational infographics for teachers. An example of a fantastic infographic for kids is their infographic for 8 commonly misused words found here: //www.onlineschooling.net/words-you-misuse . I think this site is a perfect addition to your post!

Myriad editions Infographics store //store.myriadeditions.com/myriad-store/ provides detailed and informative infographics taken from The State of the World Atlas series. The infographics analyse key world data on a range of current global issues – people, rights, economy, health…etc. A great learning tool for teachers and students! //store.myriadeditions.com/myriad-store/

You might also enjoy “ Visualizing Information for Advocacy: An Introduction to Information Design ” a booklet I wrote and designed. It’s intended to introduce NGO professionals to information design, but the breakdown should be very useful to students of infographics as well.

We created this fun infographic about Haunted Hotels for Halloween! Great conversation starter: travelpost.com/articles/haunted-hotels.aspx

A statement was made in reference to a style at the Times in the video above, “what works well and is clear.” Definitely a message to take to the classroom regarding visual representations. As a math teacher, many students had difficulty choosing a type of graph or method to represent data if not specifically stated. Visual interpretation skills are increasingly significant and far from limited to a math classroom. Thank you for the information and resources above!

Here is cool infographic defining important academic factors that influence a prospective student’s college decision, its called, “The Academic Mind of the Student”: //www.getdegrees.com/academic-infographic/

How our laws are made or How a bill becomes a law

//www.mikewirthart.com/?p=276

An award winning infographic that explains the complex process of how a bill becomes a law. The data in the poster is based on the current U.S. government documentation in the Library of Congress. The project was a collaboration of Mike Wirth and Dr. Suzanne Cooper-Guasco, professors at Queens University of Charlotte.

The infographic took first place in the Design for America contest, How a bill becomes law category, by Sunlight Foundation in June of 2010.

The best examples on this are the spammed .edu and .gov sites. Their PR never goes down. I forgot the url of the site that explains this. I will find it back and share it here I love the concept of this commenting on things . It really gives persons to express there feeling about the articles and helps in the improvement of things.

Your Monday link is a circular link; please fix! Thanks Jennifer–done! –Katherine

The problem with the very first chart is the mixing of stocks with flows and flows over different periods. I stopped watching then.

Making pretty plots is not enough, you must address the consistency of the information shown. Otherwise your very eyes will be lying to you.

The Student Sheet link for A Graph is Worth 1000 Words is broken– both links take you to the teacher sheet. Where else can I find the student sheet?

Jennifer, Thank you for pointing that out. I fixed the link – so now it links to the student sheet. One other useful place you can find activity sheets is on our Ideas for Any Day’s Times page.

Best, Michael Gonchar, Deputy Editor

We started hearing from teachers that have been doing this for over a year now and it is really catching on with their students. I started a Q&A on info-graphics at //college-universities.com/education/education-and-teaching.aspx for anyone who wishes to give us more feedback.

Best Brandon Johnson

This excellent website truly has all the info I needed concerning this subject and didn’t know who to ask.

Hi ,thanks for sharing the information. It is proven that human brain can remember longtime what they see rather than what they hear and read.So Infographics can be used as best teaching tools.

A Visual History of New York Told Through Its Diagrams, Maps and Graphics

By Martin C. Pedersen

In a very real sense, the island of Manhattan is a place created by a diagram: The Commmissioner’s Plan of 1811 , which laid out the future streets north of Houston Street and south of 155th Street, was essentially a map disguised as a planning document. So there’s real conceptual beauty to Antonis Antoniou and Steven Heller’s new book, Decoding Manhattan , a rollicking, wide-ranging visual compendium of more than 250 maps, diagrams, and graphics, all related to that incomparable chunk of bedrock. It’s a fascinating, visually vibrant book, often quite funny, and catnip for someone like me, obsessed with New York City–themed historical images. I recently talked to the authors about the genesis of the book. 

What’s the origin story of the book?

It’s the fermentation of my love of all things cartographic, diagrammatic, infographic, mixed with my fascination with New York. When it clicked that some of the most famous images of Manhattan are actually diagrams, the idea started to take shape. After a long research, I presented it to Steve, who was my first and only option to collaborate. Luckily, he liked the project.

Antonis came to me asking for my help. I loved the idea, being a fan of both New York—I’ve done five previous books on NYC themes—and of architectural cutaways. I showed my editor at Abrams, Eric Himmel, and he loved it.

What drew you to the idea of the book, telling a visual history of Manhattan through graphic representations and maps?

There are, as they famously said, 8 million stories in the naked city. I figured that this was one that had not yet been told. What’s more, dataviz and infographics are a hot theme these past decades.

I’m very interested in visual storytelling. This is how I like to learn. When the material started coming together, I knew this had to be shared with the world.

Tony Millionaire, Harlem Renaissance: 100 Years of History, Art and Culture, 2001. Concept by Marc H. Miller and Kevin Hein.

How did the two of you collaborate on the book?

Antonis did the heavy lifting. Finding much of the material and the citations, going after the permissions. I went after repro from artists that I knew. I wrote most of the text and made sure that everyone was happy.

I’ve admired Steve for a long time—his work, his writing. I knew early on that we had to work on this project together. He has this special relationship with the city and its visual culture that had to be present in this book. The book structure was more or less in place at this point, so we had fun with chapter titles and the text.

What was your process of research?

The research started many years ago. It was a more free-flowing affair at first and then, as the idea was better defined, the research got more systematic while looking for inspiration outside the usual sources. What guided the process was to expand on the concept of what makes a diagram, and searching for this schematic sensibility related to Manhattan.

Search and find. With such a narrow topic it was not less easy, but it served to focus our vision.

Renzo Picasso - New York Subway - stazioni e vedute prospettica - tav. 12, 1929.

Albert Berghaus, The Tenement Houses of New York, from Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, July 1, 1865.

Where did you find stuff?

Everywhere. Libraries, museums, old magazines, books, ephemera, diving deep into online archives and specialized blogs. Just keeping an eye out. I loved just how much Manhattan was used as a measuring unit for so many things. I believe it still is today. It’s a testament to its fame, but also its readability as this liveable artifact.

And then, once you had amassed all of the material, which covers a wide range of things, how did you decide how it would be organized?

There was a lot of material to choose from, and the book structure went through various iterations in order to understand the scope and respect the limits of the book. The dialogue between the images is very important, so spreads showed the way rather than the individual images. We tried not to divide it too conventionally in chapters like Architecture, Transportation, etc., which would miss the point. Concepts like mutation, species, or motion seemed much more appropriate because they can be applied to many different levels and disciplines, and the material can open to different readings.

There were some obvious groupings based on theme or medium. And some less obvious that demanded interpretation. 

I was drawn to the book, due to the urban planning aspect of it—because the modern island of Manhattan was created by a map, the original grid that laid out the streets, long before most of those streets were built. In a way, Manhattan was drawn on a map before it fully existed. 

Exactly! This was part of the reasoning behind the idea of the book, the abstract conception of modern Manhattan as a diagram. I come from an architecture background, and Delirious New York was a big influence on me as a student. Koolhaas writes about this wonderfully in his unique storytelling style. His influence is echoed in the book.

Manhattan is a game board. The game was who owns what and how that ownership was carved up into neat pieces. I guess it is a miniature version of how the American territories were divided up. The old states and old city are kind of a hodgepodge of shapes, then order is imposed, the grid becomes the essential means of apportioning space and determining value. 

Steve, you are born and raised—and forever—a Manhattanite. You probably know more about the island than anybody I know. What did you learn about it in creating this book?

That I don’t know as much as I thought. Manhattan is small yet huge, and it’s been around only a short time, but has been in the consciousness forever. I learned that as long as New York City has existed, it has been graphically rendered. 

Antonis, what’s your relationship to Manhattan, and what did you learn in doing the book?

I have a fetishistic relationship with Manhattan. I still experience the city, devouring its news and culture, and following its adventures in urbanism.

Was there a certain amount of sadness in working on this book about Manhattan during Covid, when the city really seemed to be struggling, and people were questioning its future viability?

The sadness was about having to postpone the publication of the book as Covid raged. We finished it right before the virus hit. We discussed adding something Covid-related but decided not to. 

There was an element of sadness covering everything during this time, but there was a lot of optimism while doing the book. We saw in its pages the resilience and vitality of a city who’s managed to come back on top time and time again.

Trump’s Pattern of Sowing Election Doubt Intensifies in 2024

By Karen Yourish and Charlie Smart

Former President Donald J. Trump has baselessly and publicly cast doubt about the fairness of the 2024 election about once a day, on average, since he announced his candidacy for president, according to an analysis by The New York Times.

Though the tactic is familiar — Mr. Trump raised the specter of a “rigged” election in the 2016 and 2020 cycles, too — his attempts to undermine the 2024 contest are a significant escalation.

Mr. Trump first raised questions about the 2016 election in August of that year, about 100 days before the election.

Aug. 21, 2016

He did so earlier — and more frequently — before the 2020 election.

June 26, 2019

But in the 2024 cycle, the falsehoods have been baked in since Mr. Trump announced his candidacy, almost two years before Election Day. They show no signs of subsiding.

Nov. 18, 2022

Mr. Trump’s refusal to accept the results of the 2020 election had historic consequences. The so-called “Big Lie” — Mr. Trump’s false claim that the election was stolen from him — led to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the United States Capitol and two of four criminal indictments against Mr. Trump, as well as his second impeachment.

But Mr. Trump had planted seeds of doubt among his followers long before Election Day, essentially setting up a no-lose future for himself: Either he would prevail, or the election would be rigged.

He has never given up that framing, which no evidence supports, even well after the end of his presidency. And as he seeks to return to the White House, the same claim has become the backbone of his campaign.

Long before announcing his candidacy, Mr. Trump and his supporters had been falsely claiming that President Biden was “weaponizing” the Justice Department to target him. But it took until March of last year for Mr. Trump to settle on a new accusation: that the multiple legal challenges related to Mr. Trump’s business and political activities constituted a “new way of cheating” in order to “interfere” in the 2024 election. He has made versions of that accusation more than 350 times.

“This is a rigged deal, just as the 2020 election was rigged, and we can’t let them get away with it,” Mr. Trump said on Nov. 18, 2022, three days after announcing his 2024 candidacy. His comments were in response to Attorney General Merrick B. Garland’s appointment of a special counsel to supervise the Justice Department’s criminal investigations related to the events leading up to the Jan. 6 riot and Mr. Trump’s decision to keep classified documents at his Florida resort.

By last summer, Mr. Trump had honed the language and made it a staple of his stump speech: “They rigged the presidential election of 2020, and we’re not going to allow them to rig the presidential election of 2024.”

The Times has documented more than 500 campaign events, social media posts and interviews during the 2024 cycle in which Mr. Trump falsely accused Democrats or others of trying to “rig,” “cheat,” “steal” or otherwise “influence” the next election — or of having done so in 2020.

Mr. Trump has adapted the specifics of his accusations with each of the three election cycles. But in each case, his pattern of discourse has followed the same contours. He sows doubt about the legitimacy of the election, and then begins to capitalize on that doubt by alluding to not necessarily accepting the election results — unless, of course, he wins.

This rhetorical strategy — heads, I win; tails, you cheated — is a beloved one for Mr. Trump that predates even his time as a presidential candidate. He called the Emmy Awards “a con game” after his television show “The Apprentice” failed to win in 2004 and 2005. And before he officially became the Republican presidential nominee in 2016, he began to float the possibility that the primary contest was, as he said, “ rigged and boss controlled .”

By May of that year, Mr. Trump spoke plainly about why he had stashed the argument away. “You’ve been hearing me say it’s a rigged system,” he said, “but now I don’t say it anymore because I won.”

Late that summer, with his sights set on the November general election, Mr. Trump tested out a new line, contending that “the media” was “rigging” the election in favor of Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee. His assertions intensified in October after a recording surfaced of him speaking in vulgar terms about women.

“I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election — if I win,” Mr. Trump said at a rally in 2016, three weeks before Election Day. And though he would end up winning the Electoral College and the presidency, his failure to secure the popular vote led him to form a Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity to “prove” that rampant voter fraud was to blame.

In December 2019, well into Mr. Trump’s re-election campaign, the Democratic-led U.S. House of Representatives impeached him, saying he used the levers of government to solicit election assistance from Ukraine in the form of investigations to discredit Mr. Biden. Mr. Trump subsequently said that Democrats were using the “impeachment hoax” to “interfere” in the election.

The Covid-19 pandemic gave him a new rallying cry, centered on election integrity: Mail-in ballots were “dangerous,” “fraught with fraud” and were being used to “steal” and “rig” the election, he said.

About six weeks before Election Day in 2020, Mr. Trump refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power. “We want to make sure that the election is honest, and I’m not sure that it can be,” Mr. Trump said.

This time, it was half a year before Election Day 2024 — and after more than a year of pushing the “election interference” line about the criminal charges against him and repeatedly warning that Democrats are “cheating” — that Mr. Trump again placed conditions on his acceptance of election results.

“If everything’s honest, I’ll gladly accept the results,” he said in a May 1 interview with The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “If it’s not, you have to fight for the right of the country.”
