Richard Cassidy’s Accountability: A Noun or a Verb? takes the simple premise of ’we are all accountable for our behavior’ and explores the significant relationship between accountability and our personal and professional successes. What does it mean to be accountable? It means taking responsibility and not considering oneself the hapless victim. (If one is stopped and ticketed for driving sixty in a forty-five mile zone, is it logical to blame the police officer?) It also means creating a vision of the life most desired and working toward achieving that vision. It’

Jan Rijkhoff investigates noun phrases--linguistic constructions with the noun as central element--in a representative sample of the world’s 6000 languages and proposes a semantic model to describe their underlying structure. Assuming no knowledge of any formal or functional theory of grammar, he shows that the noun phrase word order patterns of any language can be derived from three universal ordering principles and furthermore that these principles are elaborations of a general ordering strategy, by which elements that belong together semantically tend to occur together syntactically.
