text: Tikkun (magazine) Tikkun is a quarterly interfaith Jewish left-progressive magazine, published in the United States, that analyzes American and Israeli culture, politics, religion, and history in the English language. The magazine has consistently published the work of Israeli and Palestinian left-wing intellectuals, but also included book and music reviews, personal essays, and poetry. In 2006 and 2011, the magazine was awarded the "Independent Press Award for Best Spiritual Coverage" by "Utne Reader" for its analysis of the inability of many progressives to understand people's yearning for faith, and the American fundamentalists' political influence on the international conflict among religious zealots. The magazine was founded in 1986 by Michael Lerner and his then-wife Nan Fink Gefen. Since 2012, its publisher is Duke University Press. Beyt Tikkun Synagogue, led by Rabbi Michael Lerner, is loosely affiliated with Tikkun magazine. It describes itself as a "hallachic community bound by Jewish law".

text: Barrie Karp Barrie Karp (born 1945 in Laredo, Texas) is an artist, independent scholar and academic. Karp grew up first in Scranton and Wilkes-Barre and then, in the later part of her childhood, in Williamsport, Pennsylvania and the surrounding Lycoming County area. She has been an educator in philosophy, cultural studies, humanities and arts from a feminist and anti-racist perspective in New York City colleges and universities since 1970. Karp's practice has largely been as an educator whose pedagogy and practice sought to further define a rigorous mode of inquiry in feminist and anti-racist studies. Karp envisions feminism as a movement that can work across disciplinary boundaries and be informed by various traditions of inquiry. Her work has been informed by her lifelong study of psychoanalysis. Paintings of Karp's appeared in the November/December 2008 issue of "Tikkun" magazine and by the "Tikkun" editor's August 2009 online blog and in the spring 2012 issue of "On the Issues" Magazine. In 1988, she had a one-person exhibition at the Everhart Museum in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

source: XY sex-determination system
text: XY sex-determination system The XY sex-determination system is the sex-determination system found in humans, most other mammals, some insects ("Drosophila"), some snakes, and some plants ("Ginkgo"). In this system, the sex of an individual is determined by a pair of sex chromosomes (gonosomes). Females typically have two of the same kind of sex chromosome (XX), and are called the homogametic sex. Males typically have two distinct sex chromosomes (XY), and are called the heterogametic sex. Exceptions to these generalisations happen in the cases of XX males or XY females, or other syndromes.

text: Kyle XY: Under the Radar Kyle XY: Under the Radar is an original novel based on the hit ABC Family series, Kyle XY. As a novel designed primarily as a "tie-in" to the television series, Kyle XY: Under the Radar follows many of the same themes present in Kyle XY's second season concerning Kyle Trager. The novel is set a few days after the bonfire in the episode The List is Life. Similarly to the previous novel, each of the Trager children, Josh and Lori have their own parts in the plot, though as a whole the book focuses on Kyle. Also bearing a similarity to the first novel is a sub-plot. While the sub-plot in focused on Tom Foss, Foss now acts as Kyle's trainer, and the sub-plot concerns a mysterious new girl known as Jessi Hollander.
