New xLab launches
IoT Collaborative receives additional $2.2M grant
Robert Gao honored by Society of Manufacturing Engineers
Senior care meets scientific research
Published on Oct. 24, 2018
Kiju Lee, the Nord Distinguished Assistant Professor in mechanical and aerospace engineering
A diverse group of collaborators posed a novel question over the last year: What if seniors could test technology designed to improve their lives in residential space that doubles as a laboratory where academic researchers could get real-world, real-time data on the technology's performance?
Tuesday at 10 a.m., that question will be answered in a unique way with the official opening of the Smart Living Lab at Ohio Living Breckenridge Village's Grace Wood Campus, in collaboration with Case Western Reserve University.
The 2,400-square-foot Smart Living Lab was built by Ohio Living Breckenridge Village to provide its residents a dedicated location for trying out devices and programs developed by Case Western Reserve researchers.
The idea is to have the seniors work with the devices before the technology advances to the marketplace—and where university faculty and students can immediately relate with the residents to address their daily challenges.
Ohio Living Breckenridge Village residents have already tested a shoe insert that measures balance, a Rubik's Cube-type device to measure cognitive function and a variety of other wearable devices.
Those projects and others—possibly including the testing of socially interactive robots—will now be housed in the new Smart Living Lab space.
The lab was the brainchild of David Schell, former executive director of Ohio Living Breckenridge Village, who has always sought collaborative opportunities and saw this partnership as the ultimate learning experience.
"What a great opportunity to create an environment where students could relate with elders on a very personal basis to address their real needs," he said.
The benefits are expected to be intergenerational, organizers said. And the research benefits are expected to be interdisciplinary: While the primary research is being led and coordinated by Kiju Lee, the Nord Distinguished Assistant Professor in mechanical and aerospace engineering at the Case School of Engineering, it also will involve academic researchers from the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing and the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences.
"This is a great way to involve the human element in the research and technology development," Lee said. "Not only that, but it makes a big difference to have that tech tested by the seniors who will be the end users—not a college-age student in a lab here. That's taking a big step toward much better outcomes for the seniors and for the scientists."

Asean still has to prove that it is really unified
http://www.nationmultimedia.com/
Despite the sterling efforts of Indonesia as the current chair, the regional grouping must show the world it can act in true solidarity
Thanks to the effectiveness and non-partisan outlook of the current chair, Indonesia, the 18th Asean Summit last weekend concluded on a high note. With the Thai-Cambodian conflict still simmering and overshadowing the summit, it took the calmness of the chair to steer the summit toward a successful conclusion.
If it hadn't been for Indonesia's cool-headed approach, the summit could have turned out differently. For the first time in the history of the regional grouping, an intra-Asean conflict featured prominently during the plenary sessions at the ministerial and summit levels, much to the chagrin of the more conservative members and delegates.
Cambodia's unilateral decision to seek international assistance has pushed the other Asean members to support the ongoing efforts of Thailand to settle the border dispute through a bilateral mechanism, as reflected in the chairman's statement.
The aggressive approach and the lack of consistency by the Cambodian side also helped to strengthen Indonesia's facilitating role and the "fullest utilisation" of the bilateral efforts. It remains to be seen how Indonesia will further engage both sides as the Asean leaders sent a clear signal to the two protagonists not to split Asean with this conflict and thus delay the realisation of an integrated Asean Community by 2015.
Apart from the hullabaloo surrounding the Hun Sen-Hor Nam Hong dramatics, Indonesia managed to push forward processes within the grouping to ensure that the prospect of achieving the Asean Community for 2015 and beyond will be a strong one.
The statement on "the Asean Community in a Global Community of Nations" is a good testimony to Indonesia's current leadership. The Asean leaders agreed that the regional grouping needs to move forward with a shared vision and coordinated action on global issues of common interest. Without these commonalities, Asean will remain weak and lack bargaining power in the globalised world. Toward these objectives, Asean has to do a lot more, as its members are still basically unwilling to think "collectively" for the good of the whole organisation and its 600 million people.
Indonesia has done an excellent job in encouraging the dialogue between the Asean leaders and the civil society organisations. However, Burma has not taken part in the interface. The chair has shown initiative and demonstrated that such dialogues are useful and can be carried out without any politicisation. Vietnam chose not to do so last year.
Somehow, this dialogue process must be institutionalised further. Otherwise there is no guarantee that there will be this type of positive gathering when Cambodia is chair, given past negative responses from Phnom Penh. Without the dialogue process, it is hard to convince the world that Asean is moving toward a people-oriented economic community.
As expected, the controversial issues relating to Burma's request to chair Asean in 2014, as well as the proposed membership of East Timor [Timor Leste], were further deferred. Asean will dispatch fact-finding teams to both countries to assess the situation on the ground and come back with a set of recommendations for the next summit. However, there is nothing given on both cases.
Several Asean members have strong views on the 2014 Asean chairmanship for Burma, as well as the grouping's enlargement. As a rules-based organisation, Asean is getting tough on its members about strictly adhering to rules and regulations.
Indonesia's chairmanship will remain pivotal for the reduction of Thai-Cambodian border tensions in the months to come. Further progress is crucial if so-called Asean solidarity is to become a reality. The whole world is watching.

Miguel Varoni (Buenos Aires, Argentína, 1964. december 11. –) argentin-kolumbiai színész és rendező.

Élete

1964. december 11-én született az argentin fővárosban, Buenos Airesben. Édesapja, Américo Belloto Varoni, neves karmester és hegedűművész meghalt, mikor Miguel csak négy hónapos volt. Ezután édesanyjával a színésznő Teresa Gutiérrezszel Kolumbiába költöztek. Nagyanyja fontos szerepet játszott az életében, segített a nevelésében. Az ő elvesztése - az ifjabb Varoni ekkor 15 éves volt - megváltoztatta a fiú életét. A José Joaquin Casas gimnáziumban végzett 1984-ben.
12 évesen mutatkozott be a "Las señoritas Gutiérrez"-ben, mint színész. Az első nagy sikert a "Pedro el escamoso" hozta meg, melyben Pedro Coralt alakította. Ez a szerep nagy elismerést hozott neki Kolumbiában és megnyitotta az utat számos díj átvétele előtt: 2002-ben hazavihette a TV y Novelas legjobb férfi főszereplőnek járó díját, s ugyanebben az évben a New York ACE a legjobb színésznek választotta az USA-ban. Számos spanyol nyelvű televíziós produkcióban megjelent - korábban a Caracolnál dolgozott, végül a Telemundónál kötött ki, ahol azóta sem panaszkodhat, özönlenek hozzá a felkérések - melyek közül a "Los cuervos", a "La potra zaina", az "El ángel de piedra" és a "Las Juanas" is díjat érdemelt.

A 90-es években színházi szerepeket is vállalt. Olyan musicalekben játszott, mint a "Trampa mortal", vagy a "Los mosqueteros del rey". A színészet mellett rendezőként is megállja a helyét. Az ő kezei alatt vált sikeressé többek között a nálunk is nagy sikerrel futott Sin seños no hay paraíso, vagy egy másik telemundós sorozat, a "Decisiones". A filmvásznon is feltűnt már, a "Ladrón que roba a ladrón" (Becsületes tolvajok) egyik főszerepében.

A hazai nézők a 2010 májusában nálunk is képernyőre került "Más sabe el Diablo"-ból (Ördögi kör) ismerhetik, ahol a főgonosz, Martín Acerót alakította. 2010 nyarán új projektbe vágott bele. Az "Ojo por ojo"-ban újból együtt dolgozhatott Gaby Espinóval, valamint a Csajok, szilikon, ez lesz a Paradicsom!-ból ismert Carmen Villalobos-szal. 2011 tavaszán derült ki, hogy Maritza Rodríguez, Gabriel Porras és felesége mellett ő alakíthatja a főszerepet a "La casa de al lado"-ban, amely hozzánk is elérkezett "Zárt ajtók mögött" címmel.

Magánélete

1999 júliusában vette feleségül a kolumbiai színésznőt, Catherine Siachoquet , akivel azóta is boldog házasságban él. A párnak eddig nem született gyermeke. Erről Cathy egy interjúban elmondta, Miguel szerint számára tökéletes, hogy kettesben vannak, felesége viszont már nagyon vágyik az anyaságra.

Sebastian woman tells boyfriend she overdosed on pills
by Jennifer Balakrishnan
Apr 26, 2018 / 12:02 PM
Amy Napoli Schollenberger
SEBASTIAN – On Wednesday night, at approximately 6:30 p.m., a Sebastian Police officer responded to the 1000 block of Carnation Drive.
"Prior to my arrival, I was advised by dispatch that an individual identified as Amy Schollenberger stated she ingested 15 Lamictal prescription pills," the officer said.
The officer knocked on the front door of the home, but no one answered. While standing at the door, he could hear a female voice talking to other occupants of the residence, the report said.
The door then swung open, and Amy (Napoli) Schollenberger became irate and shoved the officer twice in the chest. The officer then tried to grab both of her arms to detain her because of her erratic behavior, but she resisted, according to the report. Eventually, she was placed under arrest.
Indian River County Fire Rescue arrived on scene due to Amy's statement of ingesting prescription pills. She was treated and released on scene.
While the officer was speaking to Amy Napoli, she stated that she did not take any medication, according to the arrest affidavit.

"She explained that she was upset with her ex-boyfriend and made several comments about taking medication, as an attempt for him to come over to her home," the officer said.
The 23-year-old then told the officer that she shoved him because she was nervous seeing him. She was arrested and charged with Felony Battery on a Law Enforcement Officer and Resisting Arrest.
Amy, who told police she works as a Customer Service Clerk, was released Thursday morning on $2,000 bond.

The Invention of the Emoticon :(
Tess Malone April 17, 2014
If you thought the English language went downhill when the emoticon was introduced, you can blame a 17th-century poet. Editor Levi Stahl found that English poet Robert Herrick used the first emoticon in his 1648 poem "To Fortune." As Herrick writes, "Tumble me down, and I will sit/ Upon my ruines (smiling yet :)" For more on the potential ruin of language, read Fiona Maazel's piece on commercial grammar.

On his inspiration for starting the show; "I watch a great deal of interviews on the Breakfast Club, James Lipton's Inside the Actors Studio, Sway in the Morning, Hot 97, Between Two Ferns. And the people who are seldom interviewed are writers. In many ways being Black has taught me to notice what isn't there.

"The Percy Jackson Problem"
Kaulie Lewis January 23, 2015 | 3
"Riordan's books prompt an uneasy interrogation of the premise underlying the 'so long as they're reading' side of the debate—at least among those of us who want to share Neil Gaiman's optimistic view that all reading is good reading, and yet find ourselves by disposition closer to the Tim Parks end of the spectrum, worried that those books on our children's shelves that offer easy gratification are crowding out the different pleasures that may be offered by less grabby volumes." In an essay for The New Yorker, Rebecca Mead considers questions about what children should be reading through the lens of the Percy Jackson series.

How the Nobel Odds Are Made
Nick Moran October 5, 2013
Ladbrokes, the popular bookmaker, has correctly predicted the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature with "a 50 percent accuracy rate" over the past eight years. This remarkable record is noteworthy because the oddsmakers do not actually read any of the books, and they do not go about "forming an opinion about the relative merits of each author." Instead, the folks responsible for each year's odds "appl[y] a numerical value to things like industry chatter, an author's nationality, historical precedent." So, that in mind, how confident do you feel about Haruki Murakami's chances?


Decentralization can be defined as that system of government in which some administrative powers of the central government is knowingly transferred from a higher level of authority to a lower level of authority. In other words, power could be transferred from the central government to regional or district units.
One of the merits of decentralization is that it brings the government from wherever it is to the people at the local level. The people are able to have easy access to the various services that are provided by the government. For example, to take a passport, one does not have to go to the capital city before he or she can do so. The person can take the passport at the decentralized office near him or her.
Another advantage of decentralization is that the tendency to become dictatorial is minimized. There is government at the local level and because people participate actively in the operations of the government at the decentralized level, they become political wise to check any holder from sliding into dictatorship.
Decentralization allows for the central government to give part of its responsibility to the regional and district authorities. Once the load of government is shared the burden that would necessarily have been on the central government is take off and makes the burden less compounding.
The presence of many regions and districts and each trying to do well for its locality brings about healthy competition among the regions and districts. When one district becomes successful with a programme, the programme can be adopted by other regions to raise the living standard of the people.
Unlike in a centralized government where policy alterations have first to be referred to the centre, in a decentralized system, the people can vary the policy to suit local situations as long as it does completely deviate too much from the original policy. This helps to reduce the delay that is associated with the implementation of government programmes.

Retooling the Test: Can a New SAT "Deliver Opportunity" to Low-Income Students?
In 2015, kids taking the SAT will be better off reviewing their science and history class notes than carrying around the ubiquitous reams of SAT-vocabulary flash cards. Among heaps of changes that the College Board will likely make to the SAT, according to David Coleman, the organization's president, one main overhaul will be the test's application to day-to-day coursework. New questions will require students to analyze data, draw conclusions from text, and support arguments using factual evidence from literature, history, and science.
Moreover, according to Coleman, the College Board's redefined role will not only be to assess students' preparedness for college, but to help low-income students become more aware of colleges that might accept them, and scholarships that might pay their way. Top colleges continue to lag in their efforts to draw low-income students of all ethnic groups, with only 14% of students at these schools coming from families in the lower 50% of incomes. According to Coleman, the College Board needs to take steps not only to assess students, but also to provide them with information about economic and educational opportunities available to them; when high-achieving, low-income students receive more information about colleges and scholarships they might aspire to, these students are (unsurprisingly) more likely to apply outside of their local comfort zone.
But to whatever extent these changes have been more socially minded, there is a definite potential to benefit poorer students--even separately from efforts to raise college awareness. One of the on-going problems with the current SAT is not that it is "harder" than the ACT (as some would argue) but the fact that, more than its rival, it focuses on material outside of the scope of a high school curriculum. For wealthier students, an SAT tutor becomes a mandatory accessory; for many poor students, this type of service is out of reach, leaving them to take a test that is disconnected from what they're learning in their regular classes with only sparse opportunities for preparation. As a result, the SAT under-predicts college success rates for poor students; often students with strong grade-point averages get low scores on the SAT, due to confusion over how to prepare for a test that does not include material from their classes. If proposed changes to the SAT include a better overlap with school subjects, as Coleman seems to suggest that they will, this would be a useful and relevant means of helping to close the performance gap between wealthy and poor students nationwide.


Dan J. Bernstein of qmail fame, as well as being the author of djbdns has written a very interesting paper on writing secure code.
Nobody has found any security holes in qmail since it was created. It's a widely used piece of software, and DJB himself has offered prizes. I do not know if djbdns sports a similarly stellar record, but I suspect it does. So anything DJB has to say on the subject of writing secure code is well worth reading.
I read it, and it confirmed my feelings on the subject already. The best way to write secure software is to write bug-free software. And the second best way to write secure software is to reduce the amount of software that must be trusted. He outlines a number of techniques, illustrated with examples from qmail, on how to do this. It is an excellent paper, and one of the best treatments of the subject I've ever seen.
Unfortunately, DJB is an incredibly arrogant person. He comes by his arrogance by being spectacularly good at what he does, but it doesn't make it any more pleasant.
One of the more visible manifestation if his arrogance is that qmail is not Free Software. In particular nobody is allowed to distributed modified versions. The reason he gives for this is that he doesn't think anybody else can write code that's as good and they will eventually ruin it and make it insecure and then his name will somehow be associated with it. He has this opinion of all the software he writes.
He may be right, to an extent. I think there are other people capable of writing software as secure as his is. But I do not know that they would be the only contributors to the qmail project if it were Free Software.
But recently I've heard hints that DJB may be putting qmail in the public domain. This and the fact he wrote this paper are indications that he either thinks that other people are capable of writing good software, or that he realizes he can't write all the software in the world himself, or perhaps some combination of the two.
I just hope that anybody who modifies qmail maintains the same incredibly (though they shouldn't be, all software should be written to such standards) high standards of quality that DJB did.

Memphis' James Wiseman, the nation's top recruit, gets court order to play after NCAA rules him ineligible
Wiseman was ruled ineligible by the NCAA, but a judge's restraining order allowed him to play Friday
By Kyle Boone
Nov 8, 2019 at 10:40 pm ET 4 min read
Memphis freshman James Wiseman was ruled ineligible by the NCAA but still took the floor in the Tigers' home game Friday after a Memphis court granted a temporary restraining order against the NCAA's decision. Wiseman, the No. 1 overall recruit and a potential future No. 1 draft pick, was granted the temporary injunction on an emergency basis by a Shelby County judicial court.
The judge's ruling came down less than an hour before Memphis tipped off against Illinois-Chicago at 7 p.m. ET. He was in the starting lineup and won the opening tip for Memphis before scoring 17 points and pulling down nine rebounds in the Tigers' easy 92-46 victory vs. the Flames.
Memphis changes course after court ruling
Memphis issued a statement saying that Wiseman was originally going to be held out of the game, but its decision was reversed based on the court ruling. Here is the statement in full:
Based on a rule interpretation issued by the NCAA, University of Memphis freshman men's basketball student-athlete James Wiseman was going to be withheld from competition. However, based on an emergency temporary restraining order issued late today by the courts, James will participate in tonight's game. The University is currently working with the NCAA staff to restore his playing status, and we are hopeful for a speedy resolution to the matter.
Initially, after a joint standard eligibility review by the University and the NCAA, as is common for all high-profile incoming student-athletes, James was declared eligible by the NCAA in May 2019. However, based on information that necessitated a deeper investigation, the University began to work alongside the NCAA in investigating the matter. After several months of interviews and, after a review of documentation, it was determined that in the summer of 2017, while James was a high school student and prospective student-athlete, Penny Hardaway provided $11,500 in moving expenses to assist the Wiseman family in their relocation to Memphis, unbeknownst to James.
"Particularly given the unique circumstances in this case, we are hopeful for a fair and equitable resolution on James' eligibility," stated University of Memphis President M. David Rudd. "We support James' right to challenge the NCAA ruling on this matter. The University of Memphis has high standards of ethical conduct for all faculty, staff and students, and we take seriously any allegations or conduct that is not aligned with our mission. We will acknowledge and accept responsibility for proven violations of NCAA bylaws. The University of Memphis firmly supports James, Coach Hardaway and our men's basketball program in this matter."
"The University of Memphis is enjoying a tremendous period of positive momentum and success on multiple fronts including the excitement surrounding our men's basketball program," stated Laird Veatch, University of Memphis Director of Athletics. "This matter is extremely unfortunate and frustrating at this special time in our history. We will continue to be cooperative, respectful and professional in our dealings with the NCAA, while availing ourselves of every resource in the best interests of our student-athletes, our coach, and our University. It is clear to me in my short time here that Memphians will stand up and fight, both for each other and for what is right, and I am proud to stand with them."
While the ruling was widely reported on Friday, the Commercial Appeal reported the NCAA's ineligibility ruling actually came down just before Wiseman began his season on Tuesday against S.C. State. Wiseman played 22 minuntes in that game, scoring 28 points and adding 11 boards.
Hardaway says Wiseman will continue to play
After Memphis notched a 92-46 win over Illinois-Chicago Friday night, Memphis coach Penny Hardaway declined to comment about the NCAA's ruling but said that Wiseman will continue to play for Memphis as he did on Friday.
"I can't talk about [the NCAA ruling]," said Hardaway. "But he will continue to play."
Hardaway added the situation "is what it is" and that Memphis' tough upcoming schedule doesn't allow for himself or the team to be distracted in this moment.
"It just is what it is," he said. "We know we have to focus, we still had a task ahead of us. UIC, even though they were down players, they were still capable, especially if their better players got hot tonight, and we did a great job on them. We knew we had to stay locked in no matter what was going on."
NCAA's issue stems from 2008 Hardaway donation
Wiseman's attorney, Leslie Ballin, said the NCAA believes Hardaway -- the second-year Memphis coach who coached Wiseman in high school -- helped finance Wiseman and his family's move to Memphis when he was in high school.
Though the two have a long-standing kinship, Ballin says the NCAA deemed Hardaway a booster, leading to the ruling of Wiseman's ineligibility. Hardaway donated $1 million to the University of Memphis in 2008 to help fund the university's Penny Hardaway Hall of Fame, which by NCAA rules deems him a booster.
Before landing Wiseman as a recruit at Memphis last fall, Hardaway, Ballin told reporters, financed the move in 2017. He then coached Wiseman at East High in 2017-18, was hired by Memphis, his alma mater, in the spring of 2018, and landed Wiseman's verbal commitment less than a year later.
NCAA reacts to Wiseman playing
After Wiseman played vs. UIC, the NCAA issued a statement expressing its disappointment that Wiseman was allowed to play.

Intuiting Bryan White's Sentiment on "Someone Else's Star"
Human as we are, it's inevitable for us to turn emotional every once in a while. It's a trait that makes us distinct from the rest of God's creations.
Our sentiments emanate from various sources. Most, our manifold relationships with our fellow humans and everything that surrounds us is powerful factors that trigger our sensibility.
And once our emotions are activated by something else, our responses are as copious as their stimulating factors are. But generally, what's going on inside us is plainly manifested in our actions. sometimes, our doings could hardly conceal what we're going through.
Without a doubt, musically inclined people would resort to music to express their sentiments. It's the most artistic channel for them to convey something they're up to at the moment, be it positive or otherwise. For example, someone who feels being blessed with a wonderful family would write a song describing happiness and contentment. On the other hand, a person who failed to achieve something may pen a song that displays disappointment and hopelessness.
On Bryan White's Case
Bryan White's "Someone Else's Star" is a song that somewhat connotes he's in a melancholic state. As he sings,
Alone again tonight
Without someone to love
The stars are shining bright
So one more wish goes up
The lyrics clearly indicate that his solitude is due to the fact that something, or more precisely, someone in his life is missing. That missing piece could have otherwise made his life complete and happier too. As he continues,
Oh, I wish I may
And I wish with all my might
For the love I'm dreaming of
And missing in my life
Initially, he is full of hope that what he's dreaming of would eventually come true. Seeing that others get what he wishes for, White remained persistent his time will come before long. But suddenly, he began a bit disdainful in the chorus.
I guess I must be wishing on
Someone else's star
It seems like someone else keeps getting
What I'm wishing for
Why can't I be as lucky
As those other people are
I guess I must be wishing
On someone else's star
The has had a forlorn melody and gentle pacing that perfectly matched its message. And though White failed to get his wish, as the song suggested, this song turned successful landing his first No. 1 single on Hot Country Songs chart.
If you liked this article and the song, please don't forget to share it with other country music fans. Also, you may share your thoughts about it in the comment box.
What Did Bryan White Do the First He Heard His Voice on the Radio? says:

The data in the figure are from a 2008 paper in Science by Jun Li and co-workers [JAC: reference at bottom; free access] looking at human genetic variation. They studied 938 unrelated people and 650,000 genetic variants, measuring the levels of heterozygosity in each population – this the frequency with which individuals had different copies of a each genetic variant.
This striking result is additional evidence that we originated in Africa and gradually moved around the planet, losing genetic variability as we went. The last places we reached in this survey – the Americas, show the smallest levels of variability.
This trend is consistent with a serial founder effect, a scenario in which population expansion involves successive migration of a small fraction of individuals out of the previous location, starting from a single origin in sub-Saharan Africa.
The final reason why this figure is so pleasing is that it gives a straight line—that doesn't happen very often in biology!
However, if we look closely, it's not totally linear – in particular, African populations can show varying levels of variability that do not appear to be related to geographical distance from East Africa (in fact, from Addis Ababa). If you plotted only the African data, you wouldn't be very impressed. This African variability may be for a number of reasons: the origin of humans may not have been precisely in East Africa, or humans have lived for far longer in Africa than anywhere else on the planet, and may have been subject to particular selection pressures reducing their variability (for example, in an isolated group). An explanation of those four African points at the top, which show essentially identically high levels of variability, may be that there were consistently high levels of gene flow between these groups, maintaining the variability.
Whatever the case, this figure underlines that we are a global species, spanning out across the planet, adapting and losing genetic variability as we traveled.

Sub … as in, sub Saharan Africa… sorry couldn't resist.
Are they using native individuals for the America data?
I'm sure they are, but read the paper. Native Americans of course includes Mayans and other descendants of the original occupants of the Americas. Also Inuits.
It is high time that the ontario ministry of education get into the 20th century and start including this in the curriculum. We are cheating our kids by preventing them from learning these fascinating facts about human origins.
David Metzler talks a bit about the genetic bottleneck in his excellent First Peoples in a New World.
I was thinking Eden, but of course your answer is better.
Since this graph is about as close as you're going to get to a simple "smoking gun" for human evolution, I hope it gets wide distribution.
I wonder how this might change far into the future due to modern mobility? Assuming humans are even here that long.
Thanks…Very interesting videos. The next billion years does not look good and our only chance will be getting off this planet.
The idea of population peaking out at 11 billion or so is very interesting as well.
Thank you for visiting my special post and watching some of the videos there. I would appreciate the chance of reading your feedback in the form of one or more comments at the comment section of my special post.
The multiple comments at the comment section of the post are also worth reading.
My guess is that the effect of mobility will be negligible compared to the effect of genetic engineering, and that era of natural genetic variation in humans is almost over. A thousand years from now, most human genomes (for some definition of "human") will likely be the result of deliberate design rather than random recombination.
Very good theory as well.
Also a lovely example of Simpson's Paradox: besides for the Americas, none of the geographic subgroups show any kind of trend.
I haven't but could read the paper. With mathematical training I might possibly be able to understand the actual procedure for calculating the term "mean heterozygosity" of the vertical ('dependent') axis of the graph. But I'd be pessimistic on that, i.e. whether I could understand the specialized DNA language needed to understand it—getting too damn old!
So could anyone here explain it in simple enough terms for a non-biologist?
Also I'm a native North American, born in Noranda, Quebec, but not indigenous/aboriginal, so likely that's what was meant by "native" in a couple of comments above.
In any case, that graph is a very convincing simple geometrical explanation of the change over the last century of understanding the 'where' of human origins. DNA has advanced stuff like that, and e.g. like whether Thor Heyerdahl's conjectures were correct, by several orders of magnitude.
It's pretty simple. The oldest populations tend to be the most genetically variable, as they've been around the longest to accumulate mutations in their DNA. But a small sample of this population will have less genetic variation. If you see a variable population, like that in East Africa, and then the variation declines as one moves away from that location, a reasonable inference—and one now supported by copious data—is that humans colonized the world by moving out of East Africa, with each colonization involving a small sample of mobile humans from the preceding population. Thus, as we see variation declining as we move away from Africa, it's fair to conclude (which we now know from fossil data) that East Africa was our ancestral home, and then humans moved, like stepping stones, away from that home to populate the world, with each stone containing successively less genetic variation.
On its own, this comment makes sense to me.
I have to read the article though.
Yes it does, very clear on the overall argument from those numbers in the graph. Thanks.
I was wondering though how numbers in the graph are actually computed from DNA data of people. For example, it has very roughly the number 0.5 for Americans, both North and South presumably, and similarly approximately 0.7 for Africans.
Maybe there's a good reference for non-experts on the technicalities of DNA. That non-expertise a failure of mine which I regret more than most other such failures. And I must admit that when feeling 'bitchy', I myself might internally reply to somebody: 'Well, get out the damn elementary textbooks and learn the stuff!" Perhaps that is the only possible way to get more understanding.
I'd like to add that this is quite a misleading graph because of its use of heterzygosity as the y axis. If we sample two alleles from the population at a given locus, expected heterozygosity is the probability that the two alleles are different alleles. Like any probability, heterozygosity cannot exceed unity. If we had one population with 20 equally common alleles at a locus, and another population that had 200 equally common alleles at that locus, the expected heterozygosities of the two populations would both be with 5% of each other, and withing 5% of unity, in spite of the vastly greater diversity of the second population.
The y-axis would be stretched and we would see the differences between populations on a more meaningful scale.
But changing the scale wouldn't change the direction of the relationship would it? Wouldn't the line still slope down from left to right with data points falling similarly along the line?
No, it's a monotonic transformation, preserving the order of the points on the y-axis. It just gives a more meaningful representation of the magnitudes of the diversity differences between populations. Oceania and Americas would still be similar in diversity, but the highest African points would be MUCH higher than the East Asian points. The highest African populations are nearly twice as diverse as the Oceanic populations.
It would still slope down, but it wouldn't be a straight line anymore.
Yeah but nobody really expects a straight line given the vagaries of migration, numbers, etc. I think that's just a coincidence. One DOES expect a downward slope to the points.
My point is that it isn't really a straight line, if the y-axis is intended to measure diversity.
Recall that everyone has two copies of each gene, one from each parent. If these two copies are identical, that individual is said to be homozygous at that location; conversely, someone with two different gene variants is said to be heterozygous at that locus.
So given the 650,000 loci in the study, it's straightforward to calculate the fraction of those loci for which any given individual is heterozygous. Averaging those numbers over a population then gives the mean heterozygosity for that population.
Yes, thanks very much. It seems simpler than I feared, and not dependent on the deeper knowledge of DNA that I don't have.
so-called dependent variable by squaring, or logging, or whatever, would destroy the approximate linearity. But that would be silly, with it being a fairly simple probability by frequency.
See my argument above about why treating heterozygosity (which can never be greater than 1) as a legitimate measure of diversity (which is unbounded above) is a bad idea.
Yes, I wrote that before seeing your argument, after which I realized that argument contradicted my last sentence there! You are clearly well ahead of me on the biology side, maybe the mathematical too. In any case, the noting of linearity seems not very important here, nor slam-dunk convincing.
We're going to get wiped out like the potatoes!
Yes, because lack of genetic diversity in your one crop means that a pathogen like Phytophthora infestans wipes out your Irish Lumper variety of potato. Other potato varieties, sadly not in Ireland, survived and thus so did the potato. Phytophthora infestans may have killed off the Lumpers but not all the potatoes. Humans are the Lumpers in this analogy, not the Irish.
I do not understand why you are saying this on the apropos of this article though. This is just about the relative genetic diversity of human groups. We still have higher diversity than a specific breed of potato. The lowest diversity group, Native Americans (or Amerindians, as often called in genetic articles), were pretty much decimated by a mixture of diseases upon European contact, but even they weren't wiped out by them.
"populations moved to new areas" – a frequent comment. But never any comments about how much of a given population moved, and how much stayed behind, or why those who moved did move. Maybe because there can only be speculative guesses? When, eg., people trekked across the Bering land path to North America, how many, if any of their groups stayed behind in Asia? And why? Was it only the adventurous who migrated?
I don't think it would be guesses, but more like estimates with error bars. No idea how its done, though.
But more to the point, you don't need to think of those movements being some long-distance migration or bold expedition.
Look at the Y-axis: 25,000 km. Think about the route we'd have taken – we could have walked (with the exception of Oceania). Around 70,000 years ago we left Africa; we reached Tierra del Fuego about 10,000 years ago. So we could have gone all that distance by just moving our home range slightly, by less than 1/2 a km, each year. Nothing amazing, or bold (except Oceania. Just hunter-gatherer people walking and living in the landscape and going a little bit further each year.
That having been said, we don't actually know – the archaeology isn't there. But this scale shows you can envisage it in very small steps.
So we could have gone all that distance by just moving our home range slightly, by less than 1/2 a km, each year. Nothing amazing, or bold (except Oceania. Just hunter-gatherer people walking and living in the landscape and going a little bit further each year.
I sometimes use the "row with the in-laws" scenario. Every generation (~20 years) someone has a row with the in-laws and moves off far enough that it's barely possible to walk to see them and get home in one day – around 15km each way. Which gives an average of around a km/year.
This very clearly illustrates a nice part of our story. It works with other representations that look at genetic diversity in our mitochondrial DNA. These, as shown here: http://www-old.hud.ac.uk/research/researchcentres/targ/ show differences in branch length as a measure in diversity withing a population. And here one can see that there are sub-Saharan African populations that are most diverse and therefore older. The connections of the branches also show that the European and Asian populations are descended from particular African populations.
The data are clearly heteroskedastic (it's a statistical term and I don't mean heterozygosity). A GLS (generalized least squares) model would likely fit very well where the error variance is modelled as a function of the independent variable. There is an obvious outlier in the American data which would need special statistical treatment.
I couldn't help but notice that the data aren't really normally distributed. You can get the raw data from the Science website. If you try regression using a nonparametric method, like Siegel's repeated medians, you get basically the same answer, but the 95% confidence range is much wider, especially for the values on the right-hand side where sampling is not as dense.
Wonderful Graph (despite Lou Jost's observation).
I guess the highest peak represents southern Africa which would include the Khoi and Bushmen populations.
I thought the Khoi and/ or San had a significant input of genes from the spread of pastoralist populations from the S/E around a millennium ago.

The Parks Seeker Journey
Parks Seeker started out with a wish from my sister: to visit all of the national parks in the United States. And who could blame her? Their unspoiled beauty, breathtaking landscapes, and bountiful wildlife has tugged at the heartstrings of many adventurous souls for generations.
One of my earliest photos on a cheap, disposable camera, from Canada's Banff National Park
Growing up, our family would often camp, hike, and enjoy the wonders of God's creation together, with road trips to see incomprehensibly vast canyons or admire the otherworldly hue of glacial lakes. This allure of the outdoors, coupled with my passion for technology and the idea of bucket list destinations, led to the first "Seeker" app, Summit Seeker.
I'd been introduced to the idea of "highpointing" during college from a friend that hoped to conquer the highest peak in each of the 50 U.S. states. This quest felt like an untapped niche in the already overloaded mobile app market and closely paralleled my sister's national park ambitions. While I had no highpoints under my belt at the time, I hoped that a well-designed application would motivate me to start and others to continue their quests, providing a helpful tracking list and an easy way to save and share memories with friends and families. Additionally, I figured that a simple interface and generic code base would allow easy expansion into other areas of interest.

A few months later, with Summit Seeker up and running, I dove into Parks Seeker development. Research for the app opened my eyes to the sheer number of natural areas and points of interest outside the National Parks System. Even the national parks themselves were but a small portion of the hundreds of protected sites managed by the National Park Service. While national parks checklist apps were somewhat more common than peak-bagging, summit-seeking apps, I had faith that the GPS-assisted check-ins, sharing of photos, and other features would provide unique capabilities lacking in the current marketplace.
Since launching the app in December 2014, I've continued to expand the points of interest supported by Parks Seeker, including battlefields, monuments, and more, taking any chance I get to "test" the app by visiting new parks across the nation.
Parks Seeker is developed and maintained by Mark Sandell. The mobile app is written in Lua using the Solar2D SDK to provide cross-platform support for mobile devices, available on the App Store® for iPhone®, iPad®, and iPod touch® and Google Play for Android™.

Dragon's Lair is a laserdisc video game published by Cinematronics in 1983. It featured animation created by former Disney animator Don Bluth. Most other games of the era represented the character as a sprite, which consisted of a series of bitmaps displayed in succession. However, due to hardware limitations of the era, artists were greatly restricted in the detail they could achieve using that technique; the resolution, framerate and number of frames were severely constrained. Dragon's Lair overcame those limitations by tapping into the vast storage potential of the laserdisc, but imposed other limitations on the actual gameplay.
The game's enormous contrast with other arcade games of the time created a sensation when it appeared, and was played so heavily that many machines often broke due to the strain of overuse. It was also arguably the most successful game on this medium and is aggressively sought after by collectors.

NAFTA Renegotiations Talks Have Auto Manufacturer Group Concerned Of Adverse Effects
— Oct 18, 2017
President Trump initiated NAFTA renegotiations talks earlier this year, but thus far, little progress has emerged from discussions. However, the Trump administration's most recent proposal has actually become a concern for U.S. auto manufacturers.
The Detroit News reports the Trump administration has proposed a requirement that 85 percent of a product's parts must come from the U.S., Canada or Mexico, which marks a substantial increase from the 62.5 percent figure today. Additionally, 50 percent of the parts must come from the U.S.
On paper, it seems like a fair adjustment to increase U.S. manufacturing and jobs. However, Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers VP of Federal Affairs, Jennifer Thomas, says the proposed requirement would likely eliminate production and jobs, and not add new work.
"We strongly believe this is going to have an adverse effect," she said. "It's going to lead to a decrease in production, a decline in jobs and an increase in cost to consumers. A lot of companies are going to forgo the NAFTA benefit and just pay the tariff, so you'll see a shift in production to other locations."
In other words: companies will likely skip the requirement and pay the tariff in order to outsource production to less expensive countries. She added the new rules would hurt the U.S. manufacturing base and curb American industries' ability to export products.

Here's a thought. Increase the tariff so that's not an option for them. Either way, we, the consumer, is going to pay. We can pay more for our vehicles to support the higher wages of American auto workers or we can pay to cover the tariffs and support foreign auto workers. I know which group I'd rather support.
Len says:
I think you're forgetting there are two other countries in the mix here…
50% parts from US is also nonsense.
The two other countries would fall under "foreign auto workers".
50% US manufactured parts content is nonsense in what way? Too much or too little? Please explain.

Retro-Blogging Research: Rhineland-Palatinate, Lakatos, Turkey & Political Opportunity Structure
Every now and then, I spend a merry evening pulling half-forgotten manuscripts/preprints into this not-so-new website. So here is tonight's potpourri:
Our 2007 German Politics paper on the then recent absolute majority for the SPD in Rhineland-Palatinate. Glory days! Here is my update on the SPD's not-so-brilliant performance in the 2011 election.
My BJPIR reply to Michael Lister's rejoinder to my comment on his paper (you're still with me) on turnout and inequality. Easily my best paper title ever, as it crams together one of philosophy's greats and a phony reference to popular culture in just two words.
My 2009 attack against a paper in Kölner Zeitschrift für Soziologie and Sozialpsychologie that claimed that Turkey cannot join the EU because they are, you know, Muslims [in German].

Islam 'does not belong in Germany'?
Politics, Uncategorized No Responses »
It's silly season all over again: On the eve of this year's 'German Islam Conference', Volker Kauder, head of the Christian Democrats in parliament and one of Merkel's key alleys, declared that 'Islam is not part of our tradition and identity in Germany and so does not belong in Germany.' As an aside, he added that Muslims do belong to Germany and enjoy their full rights as citizens. Phew! His original statement is here, and here is a translation of Kauder's remarks.
The 'German Islam Conference' is a series of consultations between representatives of the federal government, regional governments and local councils on the one hand, and members of various Muslim organisations on the other. It was initiated in 2006 by Wolfgang Schäubele, then responsible for Home Affairs. While the conference has been called anything from a paper tiger to a farce, it is a high-profile affair, a symbol of Germany coming to terms with the realities of migration from Turkey and the Maghreb after a mere 50 years.
The timing of Kauder's remarks is no coincidence, obviously. One year ago, Schäubele's successor Friedrich made a very similar statement just before the conference. Apparently, the right wing of the Christian Democrats feels the urge to ascertain its position. After all, the CD parties have become a remarkably broad church, what with a divorced woman leading the party, a pension and works minister who supports gender quotas and introduced a large scale program to support state-run nurseries and a (now disgraced) president whose single political program was the integration of Muslim migrants into the larger German society.
There is much to be said about Kauder's remarks, and most has been said already over the last 48 hours. Like Friedrich a year ago, Kauder claims that he did not want to offend anyone and was only talking about historical realities, but he is clever enough to realise that there is a difference between an academic debate and a political argument. Even as a historical statement, his claim is dubious at best as a sizable Muslim population has been around for decades, the Christian churches are in decline and notions of identity are contested. And by the way, religious freedom is a universal human right that is not limited to those Muslims who hold German passports (half the Muslims in Germany do not as a result of the still rather restrictive laws on citizenship).
The real blunder is party political, however. As a secular and occasionally radical republican, I may happily support the idea of separating human beings from their cultural-religious identities. But for Christian Democrats, this is denouncing their own political business model. Moreover, the Christian Democrats have fared fairly well with their broad church approach. While their support is a far cry from the 40+ per cent they could rely on in the 1970s and 1980s, they have been the strongest political party at the national level for the last five years.
Instead of alienating them, it would seem much wiser to embrace the migrant communities, whose religious and family values chime with the CDU/CSU's conservatism. On the other hand, upsetting two million voters (and two more million Muslims who might be naturalised eventually) does not sound like a bright idea to me.

What's the difference between BNP/UKIP voters?
Political Science, Uncategorized No Responses »
Colleagues/friends Matt Goodwin and Jocelyn Evans have created quite a stir with their report on the attitudes of BNP and UKIP supporters/voters. Obviously, UKIP is not happy at all about being lumped together with what remains of Nick Griffin's party. Being introduced as a 'polite alternative' to the BNP (albeit with a rhetorical question mark) does not help, either. Today, Matt responds to their critics over at the Guardian's ever more popular Comment is free section.
Whether UKIP likes it or not, this is fascinating stuff (for us aficionados). That their respondents predominantly young, male, undereducated and deeply worried about Muslims/immigrants hardly comes as a surprise. But there are some real innovations in this paper.
First, the N is huge (you need yougov or a very solid skull to interview ~2000 right-wingers). The sheer number of interviews makes it possible to differentiate between members, identifiers, supporters, and voters, something that is not normally possible.
Second, comparing BNP and UKIP supporters on the basis of a large sample makes a lot of substantive sense, whether UKIP likes it or not.
Third, Goodwin/Evans cleverly included items tapping into attitudes towards politically motivated violence in their survey. This allows them to connect existing research on voters with the sparse literature on militant activists.

Last year, the "Kölner Zeitschrift für Soziologie and Sozialpsychologie" published an article on the level of support for the European Union's core principles (democracy, gender equality, religious freedom, rule of law) in Turkey. In essence, the author claimed that the level of support for these principles in Turkey is low because a) the level of economic development is low while b) the number of Muslims is very high. Thanks to the very efficient PR office at the university of Cologne, these findings made their way into the mainstream media in Germany (including the English service of the Deutsche Welle) and Turkey and eventually even into the more shady parts of the blogosphere (that are normally the object rather than the consumer of sociological studies).
I felt, however, that the analysis suffered from a whole host of serious methodological and theoretical shortcomings, and that the claims of the original paper are untenable. Therefore, I wrote a comment on "Paßt die Türkei zur EU und die EU zu Europa" (in German, also as PDF). The Kölner Zeitschrift has recently accepted my article, and it will appear in the next issue. Replication data and stata scripts for my paper are available, too.

Hrithik Roshan's First Pay Cheque Was Bigger Than Salman Or SRK's First Salary
Devlina Datta Updated: Jan 10, 2019, 17:26 IST
While social media is abuzz with birthday wishes pouring in for Bollywood's own Greek god, Hrithik Roshan on his 45th birthday, we thought we'd share a lesser known scoop about the actor, in the spirit of his birthday.
When v would dance with random strangers on the beaches of Koh samoi.. (new years eve 2003) lov u @hrithikroshan happy birthday !♥#duggu
A post shared by Farah Khan Kunder (@farahkhankunder) on Jan 9, 2019 at 10:07pm PST
So, bearing many warm wishes for the birthday boy, let us get directly to the bit that made you click on this article.
As we all know, Hrithik made his official acting debut with 'Kaho Na Pyaar Hai' in 2000, which did really well at the box office. But what many of you may not know, is that this movie wasn't the actor's first acting stint at all.
Before his official launch in the Hindi film industry, Hrithik had already made special appearances in a couple of films in the 1980s as a child artist.
Amongst those initial movies, one of his notable roles was in 'Aap Ke Deewane', although it was 'Aasha' starring Rishi Kapoor and Reena Roy where Hrithik first appeared as a child artist.
I loved her, admired her so much. My first ever acting shot was with Sri Devi, I was nervous in front of her and I remember her shaking her hands pretending to be nervous cause of me, just to boost my confidence. We had to laugh, and she kept laughing until I got it right. Will miss you mam.
A post shared by Hrithik Roshan (@hrithikroshan) on Feb 25, 2018 at 12:06am PST
So, given that those were his first acting assignments, can you imagine how much he got paid? Rs. 100 only! And what's more, Hrithik's first salary turns out to be Rs. 25 more than Salman Khan's first salary of Rs. 75, which he earned by dancing in a show at the Taj Hotel.

On the other hand, SRK's first salary is said to have been Rs. 50, which is the exact half of what Hrithik made! Can you beat that? King Khan earning a salary of Rs. 50, seems almost unbelievable, doesn't it?
But good for Duggu to have been where he had been, and where he has reached today. Also happy birthday, Hrithik!

Samoa Joins World's Largest Beach Clean-Up
Samoa Joins World's Largest Beach Clean-Up SPREP, Environment Ministry sponsor Apia event
APIA, Samoa (Talamua, Sept. 28, 2015) – The Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP), Samoa's Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MNRE) and other local organisations and individuals across Samoa joined hundreds of thousands of people around the world for Trash Free Seas this September as part of the 30 Annual International Coastal Cleanup.
A new milestone was achieved in Apia on Saturday as Samoa participated for the first time in the International Coastal Cleanup, the world's largest single day volunteer effort to clean up our beaches and rivers.
Over 200 people in Samoa took part in the global activity which is now in its 30th year of operation. Volunteers cleaned up around 1,030 kg's of rubbish from the Gasegase River, and 135 kg's of rubbish from the Apia Harbour, all of which was sorted and sent to the recyclers and the landfill.
Last year, more than 500,000 people around the world picked up more than 7 million kilograms of rubbish along more than 20,000 kilometers of coastline.
"Samoa is pleased to be part of this global activity that brings about a cleaner Samoa. Cleaning our rivers and beaches has become an annual program, but the volume of waste collected on Saturday shows that there is still a lot to do and we must continue to rally and work together to dispose of our waste properly," said Suluimalo Amataga Penaia, the CEO of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of Samoa.
"Much of the ocean litter is from our rivers and if we keep our water ways clean, less rubbish will make it to the coastal waters and pollute our marine ecosystems. Together we must keep Samoa clean and healthy."
Ocean trash compromises the health of humans and wildlife, and hurts local businesses that rely on a healthy ocean. The information gathered from the cleanup will contribute an important understanding about amounts and types of marine litter in and around the country, archipelago and Pacific region.
"SPREP was pleased to see the strong support from the people of Samoa with this activity which does more than just collect waste and rubbish along rivers and the beach," said Mr. David Sheppard, the Director-General of SPREP.
"As part of this activity every plastic bag, cigarette, tin can and plastic bottle is documented which contributes to the only annual index of global marine debris. This citizen science programme has informed policy, and led to a new area of scientific research around the global marine debris issue."
Samoa's volunteers included the crew of the Gaualofa from the Samoa Voyaging Society who cleaned up rubbish along the Apia Harbour, from the beach across from Aggie Grey's along the seawall to Mulinu'u.
The largest group of volunteers worked to clean up the Gasegase River (Vaimoso River) beginning at Sinamoga village and working their way to the mangroves at the coast. Youth from St Mary's College, the Sinamoga Methodist Youth Group and a strong group of more than 100 volunteers from MNRE and SPREP worked along this heavily littered river to reduce pollution and to share the message that rubbish on land eventually ends up in the ocean, and the importance of keeping the whole of Samoa clean. The MNRE also made an attempt to clean the polluted drainage system beside Farmer Joes which is littered heavily by shoppers and passersby, creating an eyesore for tourists and daily commuters.
"Keeping our ocean free from rubbish is one of the easiest ways to make the ocean more resilient. From creating less rubbish to using proper rubbish disposal, everyone can help keep our ocean clean and free of debris," said Suluimalo.
The event took place in Apia last Saturday, 26 September.
