Fangirl Star Wars Storytelling and Writing
SEEKING SFH – Mara Jade Skywalker in the Star Wars EU

Seeking SFH is a series highlighting stories with Strong Female Heroines. These are great reads with a heroic female character who is relatable to women. I've encouraged my blog readers to discuss what this means to them personally, and it can be something different to each reader. To me, a strong female heroine should be independent but not a loner, powerful in body and spirit, a woman (as opposed to a man-with-boobs) in word and deed, and she must be portrayed as an equal to her male counterparts. There is a lot of nuance to my opinion, which would take volumes to summarize, but a second good example from the Star Wars Expanded Universe is a character who epitomizes this notion: Mara Jade.
The Star Wars Adventure Reborn in Literature – The Thrawn Trilogy
Heir to the Empire, the first book in the Thrawn Trilogy, is celebrating its twentieth anniversary this year with a special edition hardcover release filled with annotations from author Timothy Zahn. To some, HTTE is still the best Star Wars book. Zahn set his book five years after the end of Return of the Jedi, then took a lesson from Lucas and filled it with an incredible cast of characters who could hold their own against the likes of Luke, Leia, Han, Lando, and Chewie.
Mara Jade, former Emperor's Hand, enters the EU as a rival to the saga's greatest hero, and she quickly proves a worthy adversary. Mara seems to be everything that Luke isn't – worldly, quick-tempered, methodical, deliberate, and learned in many skills. At the same time, she is loyal, a great pilot, and gifted fighter much like Luke Skywalker. She has all the makings of a perfectly crafted foil, but those ingredients didn't necessarily guarantee characterization magic. Interestingly, while there has been a lot of discussion and stories these days in EU circles about villains, anti-heroes, and anti-villains, there is no doubt that Zahn crafted Mara with a heroine's heart from the beginning, and that's what completed the recipe for delivering the most popular Star Wars character outside the movie sagas.
The Thrawn Trilogy, which also includes Dark Force Rising and The Last Command, was recently voted into NPR's list of the top 100 science fiction and fantasy books, and many Star Wars fans have said that these three books are their Episodes VII, VIII, and IX. It's not just Mara who gets a great portrayal as a female heroine in the trilogy, though; you'll find Leia continuing her role to bring peace to the galaxy while preparing for her new role as mother. For female fans, these books portray women fairly and heroically and tell an epic story.
More From Zahn
Zahn fans had to wait quite a while to read his next entries into Star Wars – The Hand of Thrawn, Specter of the Past and Vision of the Future. All the old favorites, and some new ones too, appear in this duology. Luke and Mara keep finding their way back to each other, but unlike many science fiction and fantasy romances, they each manage to rescue the other, and it always feels to the reader like together the pair will be stronger. And considering who Luke Skywalker is in the mythology of Star Wars, that's saying something about Mara Jade's character. A year after the duology was released, Michael Stackpole wrote Union – a four-comic arc about the marriage of Luke and Mara. It's Star Wars mayhem and fun that will just leave you smiling.
Since writing The Hand of Thrawn, Zahn has steadily added to the Star Wars EU, maybe not as fast as some fans would have liked, with the books Survivor's Quest, Outbound Flight, and Allegiance. His latest book, Choices of One, was released this year and is featured in my Review section. All these books are suspense-driven, twisting stories that make you pay attention and want to flip to the next page. Mara is featured heavily throughout.
The NJO and Beyond
While Zahn knew how to handle a female character's pregnancy without diminishing her role, as he did with Leia in The Thrawn Trilogy, the creative team behind the NJO struggled with Mara's impending motherhood. She is sidelined for some of the nineteen-book series with a mysterious illness, but her role still expands in the earlier books as a mentor to Jaina and Anakin and in the later books as a mother in her own right to her son Ben. Even as she's proving to be one of the most powerful Jedi in Luke's new Order, her struggle to stay by her son's side in the present while fighting to protect his future is played out respectfully within the Enemy Lines duology, which also features my first SSFH character – Jaina Solo. Finally, if you like to read about mature romances, Mara's partnership with Luke is fleshed out in more detail during the Force Heretic trilogy.
Unfortunately, the Legacy era is punctuated by the death of Mara Jade Skywalker. In the middle book of the Legacy of the Force series, titled Sacrifice and featuring a beautiful depiction of Mara in a classic hero's pose on the cover, her life is ended in a brutal showdown with her nephew, Jacen Solo. From interviews it's obvious author Karen Traviss wanted to treat the death of this character with reverence, and she does write her as a fierce warrior and passionate mother. But Traviss' decision to use character profiling in place of reading the previous EU books resulted in skewed, off-center representation of the heroine many EU fans had come to know and love. Mara's death is a tragedy for what it does to the characters in-universe, and for how it affected the relationship of the EU with female fans out of universe. Still, I don't think that should stop people from enjoying her adventures in the Star Wars EU. Her role in the books did what Leia achieved in the original trilogy and Padmé is still doing in The Clone Wars: it gives women a heroine to inspire them to greatness.
Last week Star Wars Books hosted a chat with Timothy Zahn on Facebook. I took the opportunity to follow up on something he'd said at the SDCC panel.
Tricia Barr Tim, at SDCC you described Mara Jade as a "useful" character. I'd love to hear your thoughts on what it is about her character that makes her useful to a storyteller.
Timothy Zahn ?@Tricia: I think of Mara as useful because she's a former Imperial, with all the baggage that implies, a Jedi, and a good foil for Luke. All that makes her a character you can do lots of things with and put in lots of different situations.
Today FANgirl's Choices of One review was cross-posted at Geek Girl Network. I would like to thank the ladies at GGN for their hard work on behalf of fangirls, and for the opportunity to review a great book on their site.

Interesting overview of why Mara draws so many fangirls. One question, and forgive me if this has been brought up in previous posts: what would you say it is exactly that makes a "strong female hero" different from a "man-with-boobs"?
A "man-with-boobs" is a female character that acts like a man, or is at least unrelatable to how most women feel they would act. Often this happens when a man writes a female character in a way he thinks a woman would/should act as opposed to how she actually would. Not to say that female authors haven't created these type of characters as well. Kerra Holt in the Knight Errant novel is a good example that comes to mind of "man-with-boobs" – you can find a review on this site that goes into more detail. Jaina, as written from DN onward in the SWEU also has some of these traits (with the exception of how she's portrayed by Allston).
The Her Universe panel at SDCC on Strong Female Characters in scifi covered this topic. Check out my tag Her Universe for a recap on what Gail Simone (Batgirl) and Dave Filoni (The Clone Wars) said on the topic.

Oh, the places we will go!: Do you know what I hate?
So, we are in the driveway loading a few things on my brother's truck. Nosy neighbor comes out to "take out the trash" and by that I mean "get the scoop."
Neighbor (speaking through the cig in her mouth): Ya'll movin'?
Neighbor: Oh, yeah? Where to?
Me: Have you been there?
Neighbor: I'm from Europe. Small appliances.
This is where I walk away and leave Matt to the "small" talk.
This happens all the time and makes me crazy. I know it rains in England. I realize that they have four seasons and weather variations. I realize that the typical London flat is small and has small appliances. I realize that they speak English but in an odd way. I realize that it's really far away. I know they drive on the wrong side of the road. I know that I won't get ice in my drinks.
I appreciate your attempt to inform and advise, Nosy Neighbor, but seriously? This is me rolling my eyes.
Now you know how Madonna felt when she married Guy Ritchie and moved to England. And they even accused her of later speaking with an English accent.
Sure it rains, but it falls mostly in the plains or was that the Thames.
Just in case you have a problem with their language, I have an English-American 'dictionary' on the sidebar of my blog. It was put there as a joke that started with the word mat-coaster, and it just kind of went on from there. One of my English blogger friends said it was pathetic that she was waking up in the middle of the night thinking of words for my dictionary!
Enjoy your move. We'll be moving too....someday. We're building our own house. It's crazy...building your own house.

The busiest port in America is no longer on the…
The busiest port in America is no longer on the West Coast
For the past three months, the Port of New York and New Jersey has supplanted LA as the nation's busiest port.

By Donna Littlejohn | dlittlejohn@scng.com and Cnn Com Wire Service | Daily Breeze
PUBLISHED: December 9, 2022 at 7:32 a.m. | UPDATED: December 9, 2022 at 8:25 p.m.
For years, the Port of Los Angeles has been the busiest container port in North America, with the neighboring Port of Long Beach holding down the second spot.
They've been a boon to the national and regional economy, with each port moving millions of containers annually, and with one in nine jobs in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and Ventura counties connected to the San Pedro Bay Complex. Nationwide, according to the ports, the twin complex creates employment for 3 million Americans.
But their domination may be waning.
For the past three months, the Port of New York and New Jersey has been No. 1.
This rerouting of the U.S. supply chain is a bid to get goods to consumers faster and cheaper. The vast majority of foreign-made goods, from furniture and apparel to auto parts, all come to the United States on cargo vessels that unload at seaports.
L.A. isn't happy about losing its title to its cross-country rival.
"We've got to get that cargo back," Gene Seroka, executive director of the Port of Los Angeles, said in a recent press briefing.
RELATED: Cargo continues trending downward at Port of L.A., with slowest October since 2009
But nothing about this is new — and the trend was not unforeseen.
Since August, imports into the two major West Coast ports — Los Angeles and Long Beach — have declined.
Cargo volume at the Port of Los Angeles is down by 25% in the last three months compared to last year, and down by 17.3% on the five-year average. That cargo is now flowing into Gulf Coast ports like Savannah and New Orleans, and East Coast ports in New York and New Jersey.
In L.A. and Long Beach, where port officials have long talked about the need to ensure competitiveness amid multiple challenges – from shifting sea routes because of the trade war with China to the pandemic – that trend has sparked concern.
"In my entire time at the Port of Los Angeles, over nine years, there's never been a time when both the Port of L.A. and Long Beach were out-performed by New York/New Jersey," L.A. harbor Commissioner Ed Renwick said during a meeting last month, "so that's a shocking development."
The trend also doesn't show signs of any immediate letup.
"The record levels of cargo continue," Rick Cotton, executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, said at a press briefing last month.
The reasons for the shift, meanwhile, are complex.
It stems, in part, from fears about an unresolved labor contract between the International Longshore & Warehouse Union and the Pacific Maritime Association. Around 20,000 dockworkers at West Coast ports, including Los Angeles and Long Beach, have been working without a contract since July 1.
Retailers are nervous that the lingering negotiations could lead to a strike, despite reassurances from both parties that this won't happen.
A U.S. freight rail strike nearly sent the economy into a supply-chain spiral — raising the stakes for what a port strike could do. A dockworker strike, which both labor parties say they are adamant about avoiding, would cripple the West Coast and U.S. supply chain — sending even more volume and pressure to other, smaller ports on the East and Gulf coasts.
"This is pretty typical for these two groups," Seroka said on CNBC on Monday, Dec. 5 "They're going out on the far edge of negotiations, which should land us in about February or March of next year. It won't get done this year, but there are seasoned negotiators on both sides of the table."
At the Port of Long Beach, meanwhile, Deputy Executive Director Noel Hacegaba, said officials there were confident there won't be a work stoppage.
"Port operations continue without disruption," he said, "and we expect this to remain as the parties continue to work towards an agreement."
But a drop-off in cargo at the L.A. and Long Beach ports was also expected this year because of an early peak season shipping schedule that brought fall and holiday goods into the twin ports during the summer months.
"What we saw was an earlier-than-normal peak season, the June-July numbers were off the charts, for seven months (numbers) rivaled last year's record volumes," Seroka told CNBC. "Then, the bottom dropped out."
Add to that the uncertain economy and languishing labor talks – and an unsettled mood seems to have taken root.
But much of the concern, one retail industry leader said, is also still anticipatory.
"We've dodged a rail strike and the retail supply chain should be able to easily handle the remaining weeks of the holiday season," Jonathan Gold, vice president for Supply Chain and Customs Policy at the National Retail Federation, said in a statement. "The uncertainty (is what) retailers and other shippers are afraid of."
To a certain extent, however, proclaiming New York-New Jersey the new kings of cargo is a bit premature.
Before the bottom fell out, as Seroka said, the two Southern California ports had regularly broken monthly cargo records since the second half of 2020, when consumers shifted their buying habits amid the pandemic.
Last year, the Port of L.A., which has been the busiest U.S. port at the end of each year since 2000, became the first in the Western Hemisphere to surpass 10 million twenty-foot equivalent units – the standard measurement – in a calendar year.
A Port of Los Angeles spokesperson said on Friday, Dec. 9, that the port anticipates 2022 year-end numbers to be somewhere between 9.8 and 10 million, noting that December traffic has picked up somewhat.
The Port of Long Beach, meanwhile, moved 9.4 million TEUs in 2021 and had moved 8 million TEUs this year through October.
New York-New Jersey was well off those numbers last year, when it ranked third in the U.S. It would need to end this year with two strong months to catch LA this year and is in a tight race with Long Beach.
Through October, that port had moved slightly less than 8.2 million TEUs, according to data from the New York-New Jersey Port Authority.
It's also difficult to separate the L.A. and Long Beach ports in terms of economic impact, despite technically being competitors. They share dockworkers, for example, and truckers often pick up and drop off cargo at both ports. They also work together on various initiatives, such as efforts to have an entirely zero-emissions truck fleet by 2035.
So even though the New York-New Jersey port moved the most cargo nationally each month from August to October, when taken together, the L.A. and Long Beach ports are still on top – by a lot.
In October, for example, New York-New Jersey moved 792,548 TEUS, according to that port's data. The L.A. and Long Beach ports, combined, moved 1.3 million.
Still, New York-New Jersey's cargo numbers for 2022, through October, were up 9.4% compared to last year.
The Port of L.A. was down about 6% and Long Beach was up only 1.5%.
And it's not just New York-New Jersey the L.A.-Long Beach complex must worry about.
Adding to the shift to East Coast ports were lessons learned from a nightmare traffic scenario that played out in the Pacific Ocean during 2021's peak holiday shopping season — resulting in empty shelves for retailers.
Goods became stuck off the coast of California. In January, there were a record 109 container ships in the queue, many waiting for weeks to offload – and some lingering as far away as south Orange County. Containers also piled up at the ports and overflowed at warehouses in the Inland Empire.
Retailers and importers cannot afford that kind of delay — and started shifting their supply chain routes to other US ports.
"I think there's a real recognition of the need to have that diversification," Gold said, "and not rely on one port versus another but have multiple ports they use."
Trade routes are also shifting internationally.
While the Pacific Rim, primarily Japan and China, has fueled the West Coast ports over the past few decades, there are now other trade routes opening up from other parts of the world that make ports on the East and Gulf coasts more attractive. The trade war with China didn't help matters.
And so ports on the East and Gulf coasts are now working to beef up operations – to handle more cargo.
The Georgia Ports Authority, for example, announced this week that it will break ground early next year to build two post-Panamax berths at its Ocean Terminal in Savannah. The Journal of Commerce, a trade publication, was the first to report that.
The multi-year, $350 million project is aimed at transforming what has been a break bulk terminal — designed to break up cargo loads — into a more full-service container facility.
On Dec. 7, the Journal of Commerce also reported that CMA CGM will acquire two terminals at the Port of New York and New Jersey. The East Coast port is CMA CGM's largest gateway on that coast, and providing future capacity there is the goal.
As for the L.A. and Long Beach ports, until the labor dispute is resolved, it will be a challenge to lure importers back.
Earlier this week, there were just four cargo vessels at the Port of Los Angeles. In October, there were 20 canceled vessels coming into the Port of Los Angeles, with 20 more for November and December, Seroka said.
Cargo continues trending downward at Port of LA, with slowest October since 2009
Cargo shipments fall 16% at Port of Long Beach as shippers turn to competing ports
Ports of LA, Long Beach contract talks fueling a cargo slowdown, officials say
West Coast longshore, employer contract talks hit a snag, impacting LA, Long Beach ports
LA, Long Beach ports see slower traffic in September, but still expect strong year
The New York-New Jersey Port, meanwhile, estimates 85% of its imports this year were supposed to go to the West Coast.
The financial implications for L.A. and Long Beach can be costly.
"If cargo is down 25% year on year, the jobs could be down right now 20% or 22%," Seroka told CNN. "It may not be exactly one for one, but you've got a downstream (effect)."
With less revenue coming in, Seroka said, it limits investments in port infrastructure. The marine terminals pay taxes to the city, county and state — and, if business is down, that's less revenue coming into those governments.
"The economic impacts are far reaching when it comes to us losing our traditional share (of cargo)," Seroka said. "That's a real concern."

The first time i stepped behind my mothers sewing machine i was 9 years old and fan of the band Kiss, i wanted to have the same trouser as the singer. So i decided to take some old white sheets and piece of black velvet fabric and started to make my first trouser ending up not knowing where the front or the back was. This was the trigger and i wanted to figure out how to make it good. Years later i start to study tailoring and Fashion, after my studies i stopped making clothes and went back to my other passion the violoncello. After making music, traveling around the world and working in the psychiatry i was 29 years when my grand mother died. She left a sewing machine behind witch was standing on my kitchen table for two weeks. Because i wanted to buy some new clothes but did not find anything i liked i crossed the market and bought my self some fabric and i never stopped sewing since.
1 year later i started my first little atelier in the city of Leiden in the Netherlands.

Q: Rapid update of bounding box when one of a thousand items moves? I have thousands of objects represented by axis-aligned bounding boxes. I can calculate the smallest axis-aligned bounding box containing all of the items easily, but it's a rather expensive operation. I'd like to have a structure where I can insert/update/delete items in at most logarithmic time, and then get the current bounding box containing all items in constant time.
What data structure is a good fit for this problem?

A: Here's a simpler idea: 4 binary trees.
So 4 power-of-two-sized arrays. The root will be in element 1, and the bounding boxes of the objects are the leaves (in the last half of the array). The parent of two nodes will hold the min (or max) of its two children. Unused leaves should hold int.MinValue or int.MaxValue (for max and min tree respectively). Updating is pretty simple in O(log n), see below.
You'd have

*

*a tree with min for the left coordinate

*a tree with max for the right coordinate

*a tree with min for the top coordinate

*a tree with max for the bottom coordinate

The total bounding box is described by the roots, available in O(1).
Update procedure is something like this: (untested)
update(array, item, newvalue)
    index = (array.length >> 1) + item  // index of leaf
    array[index] = newvalue;
    while (index > 1)
        parent = index >> 1
        sibling = index ^ 1
        array[parent] = min(array[index], array[sibling])
        index = parent

There is a possibility for early exit, if the update of the parent doesn't change it.
This generalizes to trees with a higher degree, making them shallower at the expense of taking a min or max over more than 2 items. In my experience, that can be worth it for larger trees, but only up to a point, increasing the degree quickly runs into diminishing returns. You could try 4 and 8 (power-of-two degrees are best, it avoids complicating the math).

A: There are a class of data structures called kinetic data structures that support efficient multidimensional queries under the assumption that the underlying elements are moving. I'm not much of an expert on them, but this set of lecture slides seems like a great starting point. It looks like the STAR-tree might be a good data structure to look at; it looks like it's a kinetic version of an R-tree.
Hope this helps!

CLEVELAND — The Boston Celtics keep finding ways to win without Kyrie Irving.
Jayson Tatum and Marcus Smart each scored 21 points, and the Celtics broke away from a fourth-quarter tie to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 116-106 on Tuesday night.
Irving (rest) didn't play, yet Boston snapped a four-game losing streak and improved to 11-2 without its leading scorer. The Celtics let a 12-point lead slip away but took over after the Cavaliers tied the game early in the final period.
"We responded the right way and we answered every run of theirs," said Al Horford, who had 19 points, including eight in the fourth quarter and the go-ahead layup. "Obviously, we weren't perfect, but I was happy with the focus tonight."
Boston seized back the momentum. Horford had a basket in the lane and Gordon Hayward scored on a layup off a turnover. Horford's 3-pointer pushed the lead to 100-94.
"I felt like when we tied it, they scored and the energy left the building a little bit," Sexton said.
Celtics coach Brad Stevens also thought his team's quick response was crucial.
"When Marquese Chriss made that 3 to tie the score, we came right back down to Al," Stevens said. "Al going down the court within 5 seconds of Chriss' 3 really helps you get right back at them."
Tatum returned after missing Sunday's loss to San Antonio because of a bruised back and scored all his points in the first half.
Irving played his first six seasons with Cleveland. The six-time All-Star demanded a trade following the 2016-17 season and was dealt to Boston. He hasn't played in Cleveland since the 2017-18 opener.
Kevin Love entered 27 points short of 12,000 in his career. He scored 10 points and had 11 rebounds, but was scoreless at halftime and finished 3 of 13 from the field.
"In the first half I didn't give the guys what I should have," Love said. "I have to bring it every single night for the entire game."

The job of an applications engineer is to help people. Help sales people to explain to customers what a system can do. Help customers to get the most out of their system and help them to understand their materials better. Help the marketing group with nice examples. And help the development team to devise applications that have not been tried before.
One thing you need in order to be able to help is knowing the EDAX analysis systems inside-out. But the other thing you need is samples. Lots of samples. Every function or analysis tool in the software, regardless if it is for EDS, EBSD, WDS, or XRF is best shown with a specific material or combination of elements or phases. Some of these, like chemical standards with known composition, you have to make or perhaps buy. Others you have to collect yourselves, but from where? A great source for new materials are our customers. People often send me materials to evaluate our systems, or for help on how to best analyse their samples. When I then get permission to keep a bit of the material it goes directly into my collection, together with valuable information on the current analysis requirements in different scientific disciplines.
This goes a long way in getting good example materials, but I always keep my eyes open for new interesting things. When I see a metal strip in an anti-theft label in clothing I keep it (after buying the item of course), when a droplet of lead-tin solder falls on the floor, I stick it in the microscope to see if it looks good. I also scrutinize things that get thrown away, ranging from the lid of a vegetable jar to a damaged bellows of an EBSD system. That has given me beautiful cast aluminium samples for EDS mapping, multiphase brass alloys for ChI-Scan EDS-EBSD analysis, and recently an unexpected copper-plated zinc-aluminium-silicon alloy for EBSD phase identification from a broken belt buckle.
Luckily I don't always have to go dumpster diving to get my example materials. One of my favorite sample mounts contains different types of heavily deformed ferrite, duplex stainless steel, and also martensitic structures. That sounds perhaps complicated, but on the outside the same sample just looks like staples, a paperclip, a key ring, and a screw.
The screw, for example, I polished after doing some DIY work at home and because a certain type of screw kept breaking off when I tightened it, I wanted to take a close look why that happened. It turned out that there were lots of small cracks along the thread, which then also lined up with trails of carbides further inside the screw. That turned out to be a really bad combination and when you tighten the screw, the cracks propagate, connect with the carbide trails and the screw head snaps off. The replacement screws that I used instead had a much finer structure without any cracks and that is what is still holding things together in the house. This shows how microstructures literally shape our daily life. And it also provides a beautiful example to help illustrate the importance of microstructural characterization to new EBSD users.
The huge variation in materials and microstructures makes the collection of demonstration samples the most important tool for an application scientist and from this place I hereby want to thank all people who have given me a piece of some material during my years at EDAX to use to help others.


Believe it or not, Buick still offers a minivan in China. Dubbed the GL8, the Buick minivan serves a big purpose in China as an executive people mover. Buick has decided to preview the next iteration of the GL8 with a concept the brand is calling the GL8 Avenir Concept.
Debuting this week in Shanghai, the GL8 Avenir looks very production-ready. Buick has basically updated the front and rear fascias of the current GL8 for concept duty, brining the GL8 into the latest iteration of Buick design philosophy.
Coming inside, the GL8 Avenir sports an all new dash panel that features a 12-inch touchscreen display, a digital instrument panel, and a 14-inch head-up display system. Like the exterior of this concept, the interior follows a design theme that is not atypical from other recent Buick products.
The concept also features very posh captain chairs in the second row. The recliner-like thrones are complemented with a champagne bottle holder and champagne flutes, done in gold. While some of this is slightly over-the-top for the concept, it is worth mentioning the GL8 backseat is generally a more luxurious experience than what most American's equate with a minivan.
Don't expect the next iteration of the GL8 to make it stateside as this is a very China-specific product.

Rockets expect Russell Westbrook, Eric Gordon to play Wednesday
February 25, 2020 2:08 pm CT
[jwplayer RBo248L9-z6KDnl0B]
Though each had a minor injury scare on Monday, the Houston Rockets expect guards Russell Westbrook and Eric Gordon to each be able to play in Wednesday night's home game versus Memphis.
Westbrook missed Monday's victory over the New York Knicks with left thumb soreness, while Gordon left early with a sore knee.
However, in comments at Tuesday's practice, head coach Mike D'Antoni said the expectation is for both to play against the Grizzlies.
After long day, James Harden scores 37 as Rockets crush Knicks
Westbrook is averaging 27.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 7.2 assists in 36.0 minutes per game this season, and he was recently named as a 2020 NBA All-Star. Meanwhile, Gordon is Houston's top bench scorer at 15.2 points in 29.2 minutes per game. Both 6-foot-3 guards are now 31 years old.
Coach D'Antoni says Eric Gordon is questionable for tomorrow, but expects he will play. Westbrook is good to go vs. Memphis.
— Cayleigh Griffin (@cayleighgriffin) February 25, 2020
Mike D'Antoni says Russell Westbrook (sore thumb), who didn't play tonight, and Eric Gordon, who left the game with a sore knee, are okay.
— Mark Berman (@MarkBermanFox26) February 25, 2020
Russell Westbrook sidelined by sore thumb; Eric Gordon starts
Westbrook missed a game due to soreness in the same thumb earlier this month. Since he's right-handed, the injury is to his non-shooting hand.
The status of the Knicks (17-40) as one of the league's worst teams may have led Houston to be more conservative with injury management, since the Grizzlies (28-29) are a much tougher opponent on paper.
Led by Rookie of the Year frontrunner Ja Morant, who plays the same position as Westbrook, the Grizzlies defeated Houston last month in a game the former MVP missed due to planned maintenance.
Wednesday's tip-off from Toyota Center is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. Central, with the game broadcast nationally on ESPN.
Harden scores 41, but Morant leads surging Grizzlies past Rockets

Shinui headed for oblivion
Lapid robust despite dire poll; Likud also plays down poor showing.
By GIL STERN STERN HOFFMAN, Tovah Lazaroff
Shinui will fall from Israel's third-largest party to only its seventh in the March 28 election, according to a new Smith Research and Consulting poll conducted for The Jerusalem Post. The telephone poll, conducted on Wednesday, found that Shinui would drop from the 15 mandates that made it a force to be reckoned with to only five seats in the next Knesset. Polls conducted earlier in the week already showed Shinui on a downward slope and, if the trend continues, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's new party Kadima could wipe Shinui off the political map. Sharon's associates said that negotiations with Shinui MKs about joining Kadima would intensify in upcoming days as it became clearer that Shinui's future was in jeopardy. According to the poll, Kadima will win 32 seats in the election, followed by Labor with 25 or 26 and a Likud led by former prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu with only 12 or 13. Netanyahu's associates expressed confidence that the Likud would rise dramatically in the polls if he wins the December 19 Likud primary. The poll found that Shinui has fallen behind Shas with nine mandates, the combined National Union-National Religious Party list with nine and Avigdor Lieberman's Yisrael Beiteinu party with six or seven. Arab parties would win eight or nine mandates and Agudat Yisrael five. Fourteen percent of the public is undecided. A Gal Hadash poll broadcast on Channel 10 on Thursday night also found that Shinui would win only five seats. The poll predicted 34 mandates for Kadima, 28 for Labor and 15 for Likud. Shinui chairman Yosef Lapid on Thursday dismissed reports of polls showing his party falling to five seats. "Unlike what the polls are predicting, Shinui will win the election," said Lapid speaking in Tel Aviv to party members. His spokesman said that Lapid meant that his party would again win 15 or more seats. "One shouldn't trust the polls," he added. The low numbers were merely a reflection of the surprise victory of MK Amir Peretz as head of the Labor Party and Sharon's decision to leave the Likud, he said. Once the uproar had died down, the secular middle-class voters would realize that they had no representation in Kadima, Labor and Likud, said Lapid. "Then they will join us," he added. That point would be emphasized as politicians in other parties vied to show their support for the poor at the expense of the middle class, said Lapid. Shinui, he said, is the one party that is "defending the working citizen." Other Shinui MKs also dismissed the polls. In the last election polls also underestimated Shinui, which then surprised everyone by coming in third, behind Likud and Labor, MK Eliezer Sandberg (Shinui) said. He was among a number of MKs who told the Post that Shinui's goal in the upcoming election was to hold fast to its principles of fighting against government corruption and for a secular government and economic policies that benefit the middle class. When asked if they would consider joining with Sharon's new secular party, MK Meli Polishook-Bloch's quick response was "absolutely not." Shinui's goal is to win more Knesset seats than Shas and United Torah Judaism, the MKs said, thereby preventing the two religious parties from securing a place in the coalition. MK Avraham Poraz said that Shinui has in the past played a role as a coalition partner with Sharon and wants to do so again in the next government. But in the election it will stand on its own. In speaking to party members Thursday night, Lapid thundered against Likud, Labor, Kadima and Shas, claiming that there was "stiff competition amongst them" as "to who is most worthy of wearing the crown of corruption." In contrast, he said, he was proud that "Shinui is a clean party." Lapid also attacked the new name of Sharon's party, which means "forward," explaining that it bore a striking similarity to the name of the official socialist daily newspaper Avanti! (Italian for "forward") of which Benito Mussolini was editor before he became Italian Fascist dictator. "Either they [Sharon's party] don't know Italian or they don't know history," he said. Lapid dismissed a few catcalls from the audience wanting to know why Shinui had failed. He said that Shinui had succeeded in keeping Shas out of the last government and planned to do so again. In the next coalition, "It will be between us and Shas," Lapid said. To those who have suggested that maybe it is time to lower the flag of secular government, he said, "I reject that suggestion. It remains our flag."

While not all details are revealed by the company, we do have some information with us. It was recently revealed that the Realme 9 Pro phones will come with a Light Shift design, which will showcase a color-changing effect, much like the recent Vivo V23 Pro. The phones will change from blue to red under different lighting conditions, thus, giving a dual-color look that sounds quite cool!

This project is a simple example demonstrating the customization of Navbar in [mobile angular ui](http://mobileangularui.com/) apps.

Although [mobile angular ui](http://mobileangularui.com/) is a very light-weight and a handy ui framework for mobile phones, it has a very minimal documentation and a barely existent user community on the web. So for beginners like me, it becomes very difficult and time-consuming to develop/design something that is outside of the demo features guide provided in the [mobile angular ui](http://mobileangularui.com/) website.

## Demo

[View Demo](https://plnkr.co/edit/y6hW8CRsO9sQRzSVbzt1?p=preview)

Note: Resize the browser window to a smaller size (to simulate a mobile screen) for best view.

## About this app

This app tries to demonstrate the following points:

* ### Implement different navbar styles for different pages.
  For instance, the Login page has a full-fledged image as a navbar (which can be replaced by the header image of the particular organisation).
  But as soon as the user logs into the application, the header image is transformed to a minimal navbar with just a tiny logo of the organisation along with the Page title.

* ### Show/Hide buttons (Home, Back, Logout) from Navbar based on certain condition.
  The navbar of a mobile application may contain some handy shortcut buttons for quick navigation, but there maybe same urls, where displaying these buttons won't be necessary as:

    1. it makes them redundant, eg: showing navbar Home button on the home page itself

    2. or it maybe completely wrong, eg: displaying logout button on the login page itself

## Note

I am not an AngularJS or Mobile-Angular-Ui expert, infact I am just a newbie and am sharing this app as a quick reference guide for my fellow newbies. Hence the approaches used in this app may not be an optimal one and may or may not follow the industry best practises.

I would love to hear suggestions from you regarding any bad practices/not-so-optimal-approaches used in this app and hos this can be improved further.

Spider-Man PS4 Legends: Hasbro Approaching it the Wrong Way?
DarthOdette posted a topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
So at SDCC '19 they showed two new Legends based off of skins and suits from the 2019 PS4 Spider-Man game. These are a part of the next wave of Spider-Man Legends, due to be out January of 2020 so in all likelihood they'll be out late November. These two PS4 themed figures will be the third the game after the GameStop exclusive spidey. My question is this: is Hasbro handling this extremely successful game the wrong way? We already witnessed them miss out on the massive success of Into the Spider-Verse, and now they seem to be letting this title slip them by as well. Wouldn't it be better to maybe make a wave dedicated to the game? Include characters like Rhino and Doc Ock and then include various suits and skins that exist outside of the game. I hate to see them miss out on potential success once again.
Marvel Legends 6" Spider-Man: Far From Home Entire Wave Revealed
JayC posted a topic in Marvelous News's General Area
April 22 is the official embargo date for Spider-Man: Far From Home products to be released and with that we have a look at the entire wave for Hasbro's next Spider-Man themed 6" Marvel Legends which includes several figures based on the upcoming Spider-Man: Far From Home Movie. We had seen previously all the comic book based figures which includes Hydro Man, Scorpion, Classic Julia Carpenter Spider-Woman and Doppelganger Spider-Man as well as two of the Far From Home figures with the Regular Suit Spider-Man and Stealth Suit Spider-Man. Now we have a look at the remaining regular figure as well as the Build-A-Figure for the wave, both of which are based on Far From Home. Rounding out the wave will be Mysterio and the Build-A-Figure will be Molten Man. Here is how the wave breaks down with accessories. Hydro Man - comes with Molten Man Head. Unfortunately it does not look like he comes with alternate regular arms, just the water ones which is a bit disappointing and it is unclear whether the water effects on the feet are removable. Scorpion - comes with a leg for Molten Man. The tail should have bendy wire in it. Spider-Woman - comes with the torso section for Molten Man and a webbing effect piece. Doppelganger Spider-Man - Comes with a arm for Molten Man. Far From Home Spider-Man - comes with an alternate set of hands and no BAF piece. Far From Home Stealth Suit Spider-Man - comes with an arm and what I believe is a molten steal beam piece for Molten Man as well as an alternate un-goggled face piece and alternate hands for the figure itself. Mysterio - Comes with a leg for Molten Man and alternate closed fists for itself. While the official on-shelf date for Spider-Man: Far From Home product is April 22, it is unclear if any physical stores will have these Marvel Legends out on shelves right away. The main reason why we think these might not be out today is we have yet to see any stores put these out early, which is odd. Usually when these things are in store stockrooms, they somehow leak out early in some number. As of this post we have seen no sign of that. This wave however will be up for pre-order at places like BigBadToyStore.com and should be shipping by June.

I really do not understand what Peter sees in Michelle Jone in Far From Home. Well the movie isn't even out yet I still have to say that this MJ is not my MJ. She just acts like a snorkie jerk and homecoming so I definitely do not want to see then get together for Peter's sake.

Costume Adapation - Best of the Best?
galahad33 posted a topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
So, per another thread, the idea for this one came up. Knowing we live in a golden age of superhero costumes adapted for the big screen, I'd argue since Sam Raimi's "Spider-man" in 2002 (NOT counting the X-men's biker leathers) which is the best, the very best ever adapted costume on the big or small screen?...Granted, thinking of one probably makes you think of 5 more, all of which sound like good answers ......... and they are!.........but if you had to choose one, which would it be?......and for this site, which figure goes along best? (I'm biased and will always go with a Hot Toy) For me, it's an embarrassment of riches thanks to the MCU, and I'll go with the SHIELD suit from "Captain America: Winter Soldier." Amazingly unexpected, faithful, functional that set a template for every other Cap uniform to follow, along with inspiring a perfect Hot Toy. It's impossible to pick one MCU costume........looking at you original Iron Man armor, for starters.....but I feel good with my choice. Yours?
'Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse' Digital, 4K, Blu-Ray & DVD Release Announcement
Outsiders posted a topic in Marvelous News's General Area
The Academy Award® Nominee for Best Animated Feature Film, SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE, swings onto Digital February 26 and on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, and DVD on March 19 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and Sony Pictures Animation. From Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the uniquely creative minds behind The Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street, the film offers a fresh vision of the Spider-Man universe with a groundbreaking visual style that's the first of its kind. SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE, a film that has grossed over $350 million in theaters worldwide to date, introduces Brooklyn teen Miles Morales, and the limitless possibilities of the Spider-Verse, where more than one can wear the iconic mask. "One of the most rewarding experiences in recent months has been to hear that children are telling their parents that they see themselves in Miles, or that they want to grow up to be like Spider-Gwen, anyone can be a hero.

The BLACK COSTUME IS BACK in SYMBIOTE SPIDER-MAN #1
Peter Parker. The black costume. The sinister secret called Venom. This April, comic legends Peter David (Ben Reilly: The Scarlet Spider) and Greg Land (Domino, Hunt for Wolverine) team up for an all-new tale that will explore Peter Parker just before he learned that his infamous black suit was an otherworldly evil symbiote! "VENOM may be my day job and favorite Spider-Villain, but my favorite fictional character of all time is the one and only SPIDER-MAN – and far and away, this is one of the most exciting projects I've ever had the privilege of working on in my five and a half years here at Marvel," said editor Devin Lewis. "This is an in-continuity story of Peter Parker A.K.A. The Amazing Spider-Man set in the weeks he was wearing the alien symbiote costume that would later become one of his greatest foes! And all your favorites are there – Black Cat, Aunt May, The Bugle. This is classic Spider-Action in the Mighty Marvel Manner!" And with SYMBIOTE SPIDER-MAN #1 pitting the wall-crawler against one of Spider-Man's most enigmatic nemeses, there's no telling what kind of epic adventure will ensue. "What's MYSTERIO doing on the cover?!" teased Lewis. "He never fought Symbiote Spidey! Or did he?! Now, I know a lot of y'all out there in Mighty Marveldom are going to scoff at that – that this story is in-continuity – but TRUST ME! Peter, Greg and I have all done our homework – we've read and reread the original ALIEN COSTUME SAGA in its entirety, revisited old stories and talked around those classics literally, for hours. This is Peter Parker as Spider-Man, wearing one of the most iconic costumes in all of comics, and we're treating this story will the heart, seriousness and respect that that entails as a result."

Matt Smith To Star In Marvel Spinoff 'Morbius' With Jared Leto
Sources within Variety are reporting that Doctor Who alum Matt Smith in final talks to join Jared Leto in "Morbius," a film based on the Spider-Man villain of the same name. Details of who Smith would play are unknown at this time, other than it being a major role in the film. The project is being helmed by Daniel Espinosa from a script penned by Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless. Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach are producing "Morbius" with Lucas Foster. Palak Patel will oversee the feature for Sony. The Morbius character was created in 1971 by writer Roy Thomas and artist Gil Kane for "The Amazing Spider-Man #101." The character was a scientist who tried to cure himself of a blood disease, with tragic results. He became afflicted with vampiric traits such as fangs and a thirst for blood — and wound up battling Spider-Man. The character has appeared in different Marvel Comics over the years and had his own series in 1992, labeled "Morbius, the Living Vampire," which had a 32-issue run through April of 1995.

Should Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) have been disqualified from the All-Valley Under-18 Karate Championship of 1984 for that crane kick to the face of Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka)? Fans of the '80s classic "The Karate Kid" have been debating that ending for more than 30 years.
So, ahead of today's premiere of the YouTube Red revival series "Cobra Kai," TheWrap asked Macchio to say once and for all whether he thinks the competition-winning move taught by none other than Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita) was illegal.
The actor, now 56, applauded the filmmakers for doing "what was right" to solidify the sports drama's legacy in pop culture history.
Setting aside the crane kick debate itself, the new question is, will Daniel and Johnny address the controversy themselves when the revival series "Cobra Kai" drops on YouTube Red today?
See the crane kick in the clip above and if you want the most over-thought breakdown about the move ever, here it is.
All 10 episodes of "Cobra Kai" are available for streaming today, Wednesday, on YouTube Red. The first two are free, then you'll need to buy a subscription for the rest.
