American history is dotted with moments like this, when, as the Princeton historian Sean Wilentz says, "panic and vitriol come to the fore," occasioning a temporary realignment of political interests.
They fear that it will help Iran gain money, power and influence — and that it could be the opening wedge of a broader realignment of American interests in the region.
Such a reconciliation would entail a realignment of western interests – many shared with Iran – in the region that is far more important than numbers of centrifuges, kilograms of enriched uranium, months to theoretical "breakout", or years that a deal will be in effect, that appear to be the last stumbling blocks.
In both models, in addition to regressors of interest, realignment (movement) regressors, regressors indicating volumes where "bad scans" had been replaced by interpolation of neighboring volumes, and mean time-series extracted from white matter and outside of brain masks were included to reduce task-unrelated variance (noise).
It's a coincidence of interests, but we shouldn't blow it up into a big realignment.

This procedure is similar to the functional cortex-based alignment procedure (Frost and Goebel 2013) and uses an anatomical definition of a region of interest to optimize the local realignment of this region rather than a global realignment of the entire cortex.
Fundamentally, this irresponsibility stems from failure to appreciate the full importance of an Iran nuclear deal -- and, beyond that, of a broader realignment of U.S. relations with Tehran -- to American interests, in the Middle East and globally.
The regressors modeling offsets and rest periods were therefore considered as covariates of no interest together with movement parameters derived from realignment of the functional volumes.
A strange realignment of priorities seemed afoot.
