Kiszla: Consider yourself lucky if you couldn't watch telecast of Nikola Jokic and Nuggets coming up small in loss to Lakers
At age 34, the King isn't dead. James doesn't look washed up. Against the Nuggets, he appeared to be 12 feet tall and bulletproof.

This time, LeBron James and the Lakers took a W on their way out of Denver. To the delight of front-running L.A. Faker fans in the Pepsi Center who chanted "M-V-P, M-V-P, M-V-P!" as James stepped to the free-throw line during the final seconds of the fourth quarter, the visitors beat the Nuggets 105-96.
If you are a Comcast television subscriber, consider yourself lucky. You didn't have to watch the Lakers make themselves at home in an arena where they bullied Denver center Nikola Jokic and his teammates.
"There's no moral victories. We're not walking out of here saying, 'Hey, we played the Lakers really tough.' They came in here and beat us. We have to be better," coach Michael Malone said Tuesday.
His team fell into the same old, nasty habit that got Denver eliminated from the playoffs last season. When the going gets tough, the Nuggets choke when pulling the trigger on shots.
OK, let's look on the bright side: If the Nuggets lose to the Lakers and more than 50 percent of television viewers in the Denver area can't see the game, does the L count in the NBA standings?
As Danny Wolfe, a Denver rabbi and rabid basketball aficionado, let me know during the first quarter: "I'm asking Siri every 15 minutes or so: Who's winning?" And Ben Klecker of Boulder added he was following the action via "Morse Code."
Those snark bites would be rolling-on-the-floor funny if this TV standoff wasn't so stupid. Hey, Comcast and Kroenke Sports: A pox on both your mansions for leaving hardworking, sports-loving fans caught in the crossfire of your mudslinging.
This was the most anticipated regular-season game at the Can since last January, when Steph, K.D. and the Warriors visited town, trailing the Nuggets by a half game for the top seed in the Western Conference standings. Golden State made a statement, crushing Denver by 31 points, with Draymond Green letting the young Nuggets know their arms were too short to mess with the league's elite.
Malone stole a classic mind trick from the Doug Moe playbook, insisting during the 36 hours prior to tipoff that the Lakers were the clearly superior team, as if the Nuggets were just bit players compared to the A-listers from La La Land. Lakers coach Frank Vogel, however, didn't fall for Denver's rope-a-dope strategy, saying the difference between the James gang and Joker's crew was "not a whole other level."
I beg to differ, Mr. Vogel. Even when the Denver equipment manager suits up the Nuggets in their way-cool, retro-rainbow kit, dressing to impress Peyton Manning at the beautiful people in the arena, the Lakers look way better in uniform. James, Anthony Davis and Dwight Howard have the muscle to give the Nuggets a noogie and rub their noses in the paint. Most important? Los Angeles is naturally blessed with rock-solid interior defense to force Jokic to huff and puff for every point.

Down the stretch of the fourth quarter, what prevented Denver from completing a comeback was the defense of Davis on Jokic, who got one shot blocked and clanked another jumper from close range with the outcome still in doubt.
And Jokic? He came up small in the biggest game of this young season, making only four of his dozen field-goal attempts, his intensity lacking on far too many of Denver's offensive possessions.
"Right now, I cannot make shots," Jokic said. "It is what it is."
So what to make of this? I suspect it's an athlete realizing greatness is a constant strain, taxing both physically and mentally. Under the glare of the bright light of heightened expectations, Joker is learning the hard way: Being the MVP can't be a part-time job. It's a 24/7 responsibility.

Five weeks into the NFL season, fantasy football managers are either high-fiving themselves for their place in the standings or praying for basketball season to begin. No matter how your team is doing, fantasy football is a great way to get close to the experience of the game (without all the concussions). But did you know it also mimics the equally rough-and-tumble milieu of…investing for retirement?
Some fantasy team managers draft their teams painstakingly, scouring offseason news and preseason depth charts. Throughout the season, they make adjustments to their starting lineups. They're essentially treating their fantasy team like an actively managed stock mutual fund, reacting to every fluctuation in the market (game-to-game stats) and constantly looking for undervalued assets (players) to give them the edge.
But here's a surprising fact: Studies show that when left alone over many years, index funds actually outperform their actively managed cousins. And as anyone who's played fantasy sports will tell you, hands-off managers often end up reaching the playoffs or even winning championships (remember Doris from Accounts Payable?), to the great chagrin of competitors who spend hours obsessing over and altering their squads each week.
So take the auto-draft approach to your IRA or 401(k): Invest in an index fund and hold it. You'll probably come out ahead, and save yourself a lot of time and trouble. That's not fantasy; it's reality.


So, how does one turn himself into an entrepreneur? Properly, it isn't like switching the monitor of your PC; you might want to endure a sure course of all the best way to it. The first thing it's essential know is that you must put a halt to lending an ear simply to take heed to your penniless, non-entrepreneurial associates every time they talk about the enterprise business, in addition to the economic system. It's best to know that there's a plethora of money making alternatives waiting to be opted to and there may be not a single reason why somebody like you should not exert effort in taking an excellent slice of those alternatives.

Detective Helen Grace is on the trail of a twisted serial killer in this riveting thriller in the "gripping" (USA Today) international bestselling series.
The Doll's House by M. J. Arlidge is the third book in the D.I. Helen Grace Thrillers series (and you do not want to miss it). A woman wakes up in a dank, cold cellar. The last thing Ruby Sprackling remembers (and it is tough to remember because of the drugs and alcohol) is going to sleep in her own bed. How did she get in this creepy, cold room with a locked door? Her captor was clever, and he does not think anyone will come looking for Ruby. Especially since he keeps their phones and sends out texts/tweets (keeps them alive but away).
D.I. Helen Grace is called out to an isolated stretch of beach where a family found a body buried in the sand. Whomever disposed of her body did a very good job (the poor girl has been there for quite a while). The killer made sure not to leave any forensic clues (and the cold, wet sand did not help). Luckily for the police, the victim did have a pacemaker (which means there is a serial number). Helen is on the trail for the killer. Will she be able to find him (or her) in time to save Ruby's life? Helen is also adjusting to two new staff members. Helen misses her old team and is not sure who she can trust. Are the new people loyal to Helen or to Detective Superintendent Ceri Harwood (her boss)? Harwood wants to get rid of Helen and she is very determined (but she underestimates Helen). Helen will have to work to stay ahead of Harwood while catching a killer.
The Doll's House is a good suspense/thriller book. I enjoyed it, but I did not find it as god as the previous books in the series. It lags it a little in places and there are abrupt transitions (it switches quickly from scene to scene which can be confusing at first). The novel is well-written (as usual) but it just lacking a little something. I think part of it is the change in characters (I liked the original team). The pace of the novel significantly increases in the last 40% of the book (which meant I kept reading until I finished it). There is quite a bit going on in The Doll's House (more than what I wrote above), and it can be difficult to keep it all straight (it is worth it though). I give The Doll's House 4 out of 5 stars. I would recommend reading the first two books in the D.I. Helen Grace series before diving into The Doll's House (otherwise you would be very confused). I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
I received a complimentary copy of The Doll's House from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Another exciting and engrossing adventure for Detective Inspector Helen Grace. The team is all represented, and many of the problems and conflict from the first story are included. The style of writing includes jumps from one character to another in the same paragraph. It is a little disconcerting at the beginning, but adds to the suspense as the story progresses. The slow-paced police procedure is set against the accelerating terror of the serial killer to continually raise the level of excitement for the reader. Helen Grace is a sociopath as much as the psychos she pursues. However, she channels her obsessions into her police work. Each of the main characters are unique, but I would hesitate to call them likeable. The suspense builds right up to the ending, and you can't stop reading until you get there.

Comcast tactics similar to those used by China to censor Net traffics.
It seems Comcast has been caught playing with its subscribers' naughty bits. In the latest scandal to spread like kudzu across the blogosphere, Comcast has been accused of killing off Bit Torrent file sharing, according to tests by geeks at the Associated Press.
It's like signing up for a wireless plan without knowing your mobile phone provider is blocking calls to certain area codes. "I'm sorry, the Bit Torrent client you're attempting to reach is out of service; please try your download again." Comcast calls this "traffic shaping" and has apparently been doing it since at least May 07, according to users on BroadbandReports.com. It also affects traffic between Gnutella clients and also Lotus Notes.
If you knew your telecom company was nixing calls to 415 or 212, you'd switch to another one in a heartbeat. But most Comcast subscribers probably don't have a lot of broadband options -- and even if they do, there's no guarantee their new provider won't pull the same stunt. Traffic shaping could be the shape of things to come.
The 64 terabit question is, did Comcast do this because it has too little bandwidth to spread among too many subscribers, or did they do it at the behest of the media companies that have tried everything short of The Spanish Inquisition to kill off file sharing? There is no good answer to that one.
Of course, using a file sharing protocol isn't illegal. Fraud, however, is. Whether Comcast defrauded its subscribers by secretly blocking their ability to use certain Internet protocols is something I'd sure like to see argued in court. I'd bet US$50 some class action lawyer is drafting up a claim as I type this.
This is yet another reminder that it's not your computer (it's Microsoft's or Apple's), it's not your music (it belongs to the record companies), and it's not your Internet connection (it's your ISP's). How many more things can THEY get us to pay for and not own?


As a serial "back to schooler" I was given samples & compensated for this review but the views expressed are my own.
With four Guthrie's heading back to school this fall, we looked into finding the greenest school supplies we could from Staples Canada. Staples has become our "go to" place for back to school. I have to be honest here, I actually love school supplies..no really. Some ladies go crazy for shoes, some expensive purses…but for me…colourful post it notes in thematic shapes, multi coloured Sharpies, pre sharpened pencils and rainbow themes paper clips…office supplies are my thing.
Living just outside of Ottawa has it's advantages, less traffic, more cows. However, I am very lucky to live near a large Staples store. I don't have to drive into Farr-haven and fight the crazy suburban crowds. I walk into my store in Kemptville and they know me by name, they help me with my technical issues and consistently look the other way as my children scream around the store looking for the latest and greatest in school supplies. Our store manager is awesome, she took me on a little tour of the green back to school supplies for the 2013 season.
I loved the idea of this paper being made out of wheat. The kids and I were able to test out several samples and it performed just as well as regular paper and made colourful cootie catchers at the cottage!
Next we moved on to pencils. I cannot tell you how many times I have gone to find a pencil in my home, during homework time, and not been able to find one. It is the ultimate test of my patience when I find they have been used in Beckett's sandbox as construction material or in one of AndiePandie's art projects. I stock up regularly and in the vein of being green this next product fits the bill.
This pack of ten pencils retails for 3.99 and comes with an bonus eraser. We also burn through erasers at an alarming rate, so this bonus is a good thing for the Guthrie's. These pencils are: break-resistant; smooth-gliding lead; natural fibre material made from 70% wood and have HB lead.
Beckett had his own idea of what he needed for school supplies…..
As soon as the manager turned around Beckett decided to pick up his favourite item in the store HIGHLIGHTERS.
Yes, even my four year old loves school supplies.
I moved into a new office this year and I need to be organized. I might be a little over organized, truth be told, so organized in fact I cannot find what I am looking for some days. I found these Staples brand 100% recycled report covers. It is no secret I love the colour green and for $1.00 per cover I bought enough for all my mobile files for this year and maybe next year as well.
If you're interested in eco-friendly products for this school year, Staples also has a great selection of reusable food containers and lunch bags to help cut down on litter in your child's school. Have you ever wondered how your back-to-school shopping habits measure up against the rest of Canadians? One-third of Canadians (32%) will shop for Back-to-School this year. Among shoppers, good value for the money will be the largest determining factor in where they shop (81%).
I must tell you that Staples Canada also has in store specials (this week it is post it notes), it is a good idea to check back each week especially during the Staples Canada Teacher Appreciation Days going on until September 7th. Happy Shopping !


Toronto voters decided last September that they want the City of Toronto to build a subway extension along Sheppard Avenue. It now looks as though that project may never be built. This isn't because the municipal government had a change of heart, or that the project ran into engineering difficulties. The major stumbling block is the Government of Ontario. It isn't that the province intends to block the project. Indeed, Premier McGuinty seems entirely indifferent to it. This project is threatening to become the poster child for a failure of federal and provincial governments to co-ordinate with the municipalities to provide infrastructure. That would be a much needed wake up call.
The crux of the problem is that the City of Toronto doesn't have the revenue generating capacity to fund such a large project. The federal and provincial governments receive 92% of all tax revenue in Canada. Given that the Ontario government consumed 20.8% of the provinces GDP in 2010, and the federal government took another 18%, there isn't any way that Torontonians can afford to pay substantially more municipal taxes. The city also has little room to experiment with various user fees, since the province lays out strict revenue generation guidelines for municipalities. This makes the city reliant on upper levels of government for infrastructure financing. And if provincewide, or indeed nationwide voters don't believe that the project is a priority, the City of Toronto will be out of luck. They voted for their tax dollars to be used in a particular way, so there's no reason why their city government shouldn't be able to proceed—especially given that Torontonians pay more in federal and provincial taxes than they get back in services . Yet politicians representing the entire province—indeed the entire country—will ultimately determine whether the Sheppard subway line gets built. It's no wonder that Canadian cities have a $123 billion infrastructure deficit.
In order to restore accountability to municipal infrastructure spending, we need to end the dependency of cities on upper levels of government for funding. This will mean not only giving municipal governments discretion to experiment with different forms of taxation and user fees, but accepting that upper levels of government have no responsibility for municipal infrastructure. This will give upper levels of government fiscal room to lower taxes, so that municipalities can raise the revenue needed to meet all of their infrastructure needs. By more closely linking expenditures and revenues, we will get more accountability in three ways. First, making municipal governments solely responsible for municipal infrastructure ensures that voters know exactly who to blame or praise for infrastructure decisions. It makes it impossible for municipal politicians to pass the blame to other levels of government. Second, it would make infrastructure decisions more responsive to city residents. Local politicians know better what their constituents want and need than national or provincial politicians. Third, tying expenditures and revenues more closely together makes it easier for voters to determine how much they value particular projects. They may be content when their municipal government are able to wrestle money from the provincial government for expensive, highly visible projects, but they might prefer to find less expensive solutions if they can see the link between their taxes and expenditures. This is a far better solution than having municipal governments sabre rattling with upper levels of government. When every municipal government in the country claims they aren't getting their fair share, something is clearly wrong.
The only transfer from upper levels of government to municipal governments that should take place is a percentage of the gas tax. This makes sense since taxing gasoline is more efficient at the upper levels of government. But it needs to be consistent, and fair. Allocating a fixed percentage to the cities, and distributing it on a per capita basis is a reasonable approach. But micromanagement from upper levels of government will ensure that the Sheppard subway debacle won't be the last time that municipal voters are thwarted by other levels of government.

2020 NFL Draft: Ranking the value of each first-round selection
Ian Cummings
10. Minnesota Vikings – TCU CB Jeff Gladney at No. 31
For a moment, let's just appreciate that the Vikings, after losing Xavier Rhodes, Trae Waynes, and Mackensie Alexander in free agency, managed to recoup their losses by adding Jeff Gladney, Cameron Dantzler, and Harrison Hand in the draft. Hand has the length and athletic upside to be a consistent contributor in time, and Gladney and Dantzler should be starters early.
Gladney, in particular, has the traits to be an impact player right away. He couples speed and explosiveness with instincts and moxie, and while he's a bit undersized, he makes up for it with his play style and his ability to cover ground. The Vikings needed a quick turnaround at one of the most important defensive positions, and they got it. They traded back and still got Gladney, culminating in excellent value, worthy of a top-10 slot.
9. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Iowa OT Tristan Wirfs at No. 13
Had the Buccaneers not traded a fourth-round pick to swap places with the 49ers, this would have been the highest-value offensive tackle addition in the first round. Even so, the Buccaneers got the most athletic offensive tackle in the 2020 NFL Draft, at a place where he shouldn't have been available.
Tristan Wirfs' athletic profile is eerily reminiscent of seven-time Pro Bowl tackle Trent Williams, and on tape, his play reinforces his potential. Wirfs is an incredibly smooth, agile blocker with the power to render opponents inert, and he has the upside to pace his position for years.
The Buccaneers, with Tom Brady and a newly-formed talent core, are gearing up to win now, and they needed another tackle to immediately solidify Brady's line. Wirfs does exactly that, and he'll also smoothen the inevitable transition to Brady's heir.
8. Miami Dolphins – Auburn CB Noah Igbinoghene at No. 30
It was interesting to see how this pick was received. The Dolphins traded back with the Packers for the 30th pick and wound up selecting Auburn CB Noah Igbinoghene. Some people liked the pick. Some people hated the pick. Some people had no idea who Igbinoghene was.
I loved the pick, as evidenced by this ranking. Igbinoghene is raw in some areas of his game, but when I watched his tape, I saw a player with potentially the highest ceiling in the cornerback class. He's an incredibly fluid mover with excellent closing speed and explosiveness, and he plays with an ingrained urgency that not all players have.
Igbinoghene's profile pits him as a top-three cornerback in my eyes and the Dolphins got him after trading back to 30. He offers early starting potential and trans-positional versatility for Brian Flores, a quality that could be very valuable in due time.
7. Cleveland Browns – Alabama OT Jedrick Wills at No. 10
Virtually every mock draft leading up to late April had the Cleveland Browns selecting an offensive tackle with the 10th overall pick. It doesn't even qualify as a poorly-kept secret because it wasn't a secret; it was always tackle or bust for the Browns, and when it came time to make the selection, they did exactly what they needed to do.
At 10, the Browns picked the offensive tackle with arguably the highest floor in the 2020 class. Jedrick Wills is a robot on tape, possessing unreal snap-to-snap consistency, and while Wirfs edged out Wills for my OT1 spot, Wills was a close second with his complete foundational floor as a prospect.
He has the profile to file in opposite from Jack Conklin with ease, and that value that he might provide, protecting Baker Mayfield's blindside and expediting his growth process, is astronomical.
6. Denver Broncos – Alabama WR Jerry Jeudy at No. 15
Whispers ahead of the 2020 NFL Draft told of the Broncos' desire to add a dynamic receiving threat for Drew Lock. It was even believed that the Broncos would try to trade up, in order to secure their chances of adding their desired target.
In the end, the Broncos did no such thing. Instead, they sat at 15, as Alabama wide receiver Jerry Jeudy fell to them, undeterred. As Pro Football Network insider Benjamin Allbright reported recently, Jeudy was the number one receiver on the Broncos' board, and they were able to get him without sacrificing extraneous value. Whenever a team is able to capitalize on the draft board like this, it goes without saying that they essentially maximized their potential value.
5. Carolina Panthers – Auburn DL Derrick Brown at No. 7
Derrick Brown's NFL Combine performance was the source of some controversy, as the Auburn standout didn't quite test to the level that some thought he would. But those numbers pale in comparison to the tape, where Brown shows all of the burst, power, and length necessary to wreck opposing offensive lines at the next level.
The Carolina Panthers, needing top-end talent heading into the draft, got a potential top-three player in Brown at seventh overall. Interior strength and pressure are important components to the modern defense, and Brown gives them a player with a full tool chest in that regard. With Kawann Short aging and coming back from injury, Brown has the skills to boost him up once he's back, and ultimately succeed him when he's gone.
4. Miami Dolphins – Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa at No. 5
There was talk in the months leading up to the 2020 NFL Draft that the Miami Dolphins would be forced to trade up to grab their quarterback of the future. Speculation was fueled by the fact that the Dolphins had the capital, as well as the incentive to do so. But when the draft finally came around, the Dolphins were able to sit at five, let the board play out before them, and select their desired choice at quarterback without giving up any assets.
There are questions surrounding whether or not Tua Tagovailoa can elevate a team to the degree that other quarterbacks can, but his athleticism, accuracy, and steadiness make him a quarterback teams can win with. That's not always an easy thing to find in today's NFL, and the Dolphins did it while also keeping the assets needed to strengthen his supporting cast.
3. Washington Redskins – Ohio State EDGE Chase Young at No. 2
The Redskins didn't necessarily need to pick an edge rusher second overall, as Ryan Kerrigan is still in the wings across from Montez Sweat. That said, Kerrigan is getting older and appears to be declining, and when there's a top talent available at a position of heavy importance like edge rusher, it only makes sense to re-up and benefit from the added talent.
Most people you ask will tell you that Chase Young was the best prospect in the 2020 NFL Draft. His combination of size and athleticism is rare for an edge rusher, and while he was dominant in college in 2019, he's still trending up and growing into his frame.
For the Redskins, who have a multi-year rebuild on deck, getting the best overall player at two was the right move, regardless of positional need, and in a year or two, once they've filled other needs on defense, Young's fearsome presence could help make them real contenders.
2. Cincinnati Bengals – LSU QB Joe Burrow at No. 1
When there's a sure thing at quarterback, you take him. Few quarterbacks are ever a sure thing emerging onto the draft circuit, but in the 2020 NFL Draft, Joe Burrow was the closest one to that status, and he was the only choice that made sense for the Cincinnati Bengals first overall.
Burrow brings with him an incredibly solid profile. He has almost everything you want in an NFL quarterback — Poise, evasion skills, general accuracy, toughness, leadership, and more. His arm strength drew the most complaints from scouts during the recent pre-draft cycle, but quarterbacks who know how to keep plays alive and use their tools don't need rocket arms. Burrow has the traits necessary to elevate his team, and with the first overall pick, that kind of player gives you the best long-term value possible.
1. Dallas Cowboys – Oklahoma WR CeeDee Lamb at No. 17
It only makes sense that the Cowboys are the ones who committed highway robbery. Not many mocks had Dallas picking a receiver in the first round; the presence of 1,000-yard pass-catchers Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup made sure of that. However, there were not many mocks that had CeeDee Lamb dropping to 17 either, and when he did, Jerry Jones rightly sent in the card.
Lamb was my WR1 in this cycle. He's an incredibly dynamic receiver with the size, explosiveness, body control, and run-after-catch ability to be a premier threat at the next level, and his profile warranted a selection in the top 10. He should have been someone's top wide receiver after the draft, but instead, he'll join a fearsome trio in Texas, and he might make them the best group in the NFL from day one.

Q: Java - Drawing a dynamic shape outline I wish to create a dynamic outline to a Shape (AWT) by adding objects (with draw functions) to appropriate positions on screen along the shape's perimeter. I want a roughly even distance between each object. (An alternative approach to the same affect will be fine.)
How might I acquire the locations for these objects?  I know shapes have a path iterator, but I have no idea how to use it.

A: You might look at a library such as the one described in A Shape Diagram Editor.
If you want to experiment, GraphPanel is a simple object drawing program that features moveable, resizable, colored nodes connected by edges. If the nodes were a little smaller, they'd be moveable points on a Shape that can be iterated as shown here for Polygon.
Addendum: I want a roughly even distance between each object.
The class Node exposes a number of static methods that operate on a List<Node> such as selected. Existing implementations serve, for example, to translate or resize multiple selections as a unit.  Functions for Align and Distribute could be implemented similarly. I'd look at LayoutManger as an example for the latter.

A: Use FlatteningPathIterator to get points for Shape's path.
Also you can use BasicStroke's method
public Shape createStrokedShape(Shape s)

to get Shape's outline with desire width.

Re-individualising human remains from Namibia
Colonialism, grave robbery and intellectual history
in Human Remains and Violence: An Interdisciplinary Journal
https://doi.org/10.7227/HRV.4.2.4
Open Access (free)
ABSTRACT / EXCERPT
In 1885, the Berlin pathologist Rudolf Virchow presented three human skeletons from the colony of German South West Africa to the Berlin Society for Anthropology, Ethnology and Prehistory. The remains had been looted from a grave by a young German scientist, Waldemar Belck, who was a member of the second Lüderitz expedition and took part in the occupation of colonial territory. In an attempt to re-individualise and re-humanise these human remains, which were anonymised in the course of their appropriation by Western science, the authors consult not only the colonial archive, but also contemporary oral history in Namibia. This allows for a detailed reconstruction of the social and political contexts of the deaths of the three men, named Jacobus Hendrick, Jacobus !Garisib and Oantab, and of Belck's grave robbery, for an analysis of how the remains were turned into scientific objects by German science and institutions, as well as for an establishment of topographical and genealogical links with the Namibian present. Based on these findings, claims for the restitution of African human remains from German institutions cannot any longer be regarded as a contemporary phenomenon only but must be understood as part of an African tradition of resistance against Western colonial and scientific practices.

Forensic civism: articulating science, DNA and kinship in contemporary Mexico and Colombia
Authors: Ernesto Schwartz-Marin and Arely Cruz-Santiago
Archaeology and Heritage
The article will present the findings of ethnographic research into the Colombian and Mexican forensic systems, introducing the first citizen-led exhumation project made possible through the cooperation of scholars, forensic specialists and interested citizens in Mexico. The coupling evolution and mutual re-constitution of forensic science will be explored, including new forms of citizenship and nation building projects – all approached as lived experience – in two of Latin America's most complex contexts: organised crime and mass death.
Its like every other job: a consideration of forensic specialists professional identities in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Author: Andrea M. Szkil
The subject of forensic specialist's work with human remains in the aftermath of conflict has remained largely unexplored within the existing literature. Drawing upon anthropological fieldwork conducted from 2009–10 in three mortuary facilities overseen by the International Commission on Missing Persons (ICMP) in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), this article analyses observations of and interviews with ICMP forensic specialists as a means of gaining insight into their experiences with the remains of people who went missing during the 1992–95 war in BiH. The article specifically focuses on how forensic specialists construct and maintain their professional identities within an emotionally charged situation. Through analysing forensic specialists encounters with human remains, it is argued that maintaining a professional identity requires ICMP forensic specialists to navigate between emotional attachment and engagement according to each situation.

Among bodies: reflections on ethnographic work and the repercussions of exhumations and identifications of the disappeared of the last military dictatorship in Argentina
Author: Laura Panizo
This article will investigate the process of confronting death in cases of the disappeared of the last military dictatorship in Argentina. Based on the exhumation and identification of the body of a disappeared person, the article will reflect on how the persons social situation can be reconfigured, causing structural changes within the family and other groups. This will be followed by a discussion of the reflections generated by the anthropologist during his or her interview process, as well as an investigation into the authors own experiences in the field. This intimate relationship between the anthropologist and death, through the inevitable contact that takes place among the bodies, causes resonances in the context both of exhumations and of identifications in the anthropologists wider fieldwork.

There Is Something For You In This World, What Is It?


Bluespec, by default uses positive clock edge clocked devices with reset asserted low... But what's a designer to do if they need to do something else? There are several answers, depending on what you want to do.
The easiest case is if your whole BSV design uses neg clock edges or positive reset. The compiler and scheduler fundamentally don't know (or really care) which sense of clock or reset you are using (with one exception mentioned later). The Bluespec compiler uses a basic Verilog library (in $BLUESPECDIR/lib/Verilog) of bluespec elements which are imported into Bluespec. Basically, one can simply modify the existing Verilog files, changing all the [email protected](posedge clk) to [email protected](negedge clk), for instance, and when you simulate with Verilog and synthesize with Verilog, use this new library instead of the existing posedge library.
You could also create a Reset Inverter to change your positive reset to a negative reset and simply invert the reset at the top level of your design.. I.E.
Presuming your synthesizer is smart enough to make an inverter to a FF reset properly (which surely it is), you just need top be sure you synthesize the inverter also at some point..
Your BSV code doesn't change because, as you know, we don't specify edges or reset senses in BSV, and you can't perform logical operations on either. Clock gating, dividers, etc, always goes to Verilog library elements.
But there are two hidden dangers as of this writing that need to be fixed via post processing (with your favorite scripting language)..
Which says that while the registers are clocking on the posedge, we are looking at data on the negdge edge (so this needs to change to posedge). If you want to change your reset to positive reset, then you must also change RST to !RST.
Feel free to contact bluespec if your project uses positive reset for the latest information..
A more correct and complete means of using multiple clock edge devices is to create clock domains for each type of clock (i.e. posedge clocked data and neg edge clocked data) and to synchronize between each. Bluespec provides safe synchronizers, but with careful design practices and design implementation rules, you could create your own synchronizers with import BVI, which are just dual flips flops (or single flip-flops - see the DDR example).
Import BVI allows input and output pins to be associated with specific clocks brought into the module. You can write your Verilog module as you need, but be careful to specify the correct clock relations for each input and output pin.. This is what the compiler will use to enforce what pins are in what clock domain... (so you don't accidentally cross connect between clock domains causing unexpected problems).
An interesting multiclock case is the DDR design, where a designer wished to run logic on both pos edge and neg edge clocks..
To summarize, my initial approach to this is to create and import several new register types to create and deal with crossing between the two clock domains... I'll call them the Pos domain (output data is driven by pos clock edge device), and Neg domain (output data is driven by neg clock edge device)... This gives us 4 types of registers that we need to manage..
The point to this now is that we can know that data will be stable on the edge driven by the clock domain, and the inputs are stable to the rules as bsc expects. Double pumped logic is pipelined with data being alternately loaded between mkRegPN and mkRegNP. Of course, you will have to keep track of how much logic is there, since when you synthesize you now have 1/2 the cycle time..
A final trick here, is that when you want/need data driven double speed from both a posedge and neg edge, we now have another choice to make.. We can either send one of the signals through a null synchronizer and then we can just or the signals together.. Or one could create four more types of registers that now translate in and out of pos/neg clock domain to a new DDR domain, which is clocked registers that are loaded on pos *OR* neg edge clocks... I think you can now see advantages and disadvantages to each.. Perhaps you want to go directly from pos domain to DDR domain and back, ignoring completely the neg domain..
The point is to let the compiler help manage your domains, so you don't accidentally cross..
// same clock speed, but different name so we have a different clock domain.
// now watch it come out!
As of this writing, most of this will not work on bluesim. Bluesim schedules simulations via the TRS semantics, it is not an edge triggered or event driven simulator.. We have looked at various ways around this, but for the moment, tricky clock games will have to be simulated in a verilog simulator.

NEW YORK (AP) — Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is meeting with conservatives, including radio host Glenn Beck, to discuss claims that its "trending topics" feature is biased against their viewpoints.
The Wednesday meeting also includes American Enterprise Institute president Arthur Brooks, Tea Party Patriots CEO Jenny Beth Martin and also Brent Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, which says its "sole mission is to expose and neutralize the propaganda arm of the Left: the national news media."
Zuckerberg invited the dozen or so conservatives after a report in the tech blog Gizmodo claimed that Facebook downplays conservative news subjects on its trending feature. Facebook denies that report, which relied upon a single anonymous individual with self-described conservative leanings.
Nonetheless, Zuckerberg said the Menlo Park, California, company is investigating the matter.

How to Make Meatballs
By Shayna, Facty StaffUpdated: Apr 18, 2019
Meatballs are a cross between a hamburger patty and a meatloaf. They are very popular in a variety of dishes and can be found in cuisine from all across the world! They are the perfect food to make ahead and freeze, plus they are simple and easy to make. Meatballs are even a great way to introduce young kids to cooking as they require a lot of hands-on interaction to prepare and make, while the measurements are simple and easy to understand!
Where did meatballs come from?
When people hear the word "meatball," most of them think of the famous Italian dish spaghetti and meatballs or even of Swedish meatballs. However, while no one is sure exactly where they originated from, most people believe the first meatballs were created centuries ago by the Persians for a dish called kofta. Nearly every culture and region in the world have some sort of meatball dish!
Lauri Patterson / Getty Images
What is a meatball?
In its simplest form, a meatball is ground protein, usually beef, lamb, pork or chicken. This meat is ground and combined with a moisturizing component such as eggs. Then spices including salt and pepper join the mix for flavor depth, as well as a binding agent such as bread crumbs. All of the ingredients vary depending on the recipe, region, and culture of the dish!

What ingredients do I need to make Italian meatballs?
Italian meatballs are very well known, and the list of ingredients is pretty simple. To make Italian meatballs, you need a little ground beef, ground pork, and Italian sausage, some bread crumbs soaked in milk until it becomes a paste, some chopped onion, minced garlic, a couple of eggs, a little Parmesan cheese, and a dash of fresh parsley.
fcafotodigital / Getty Images
How do I make Italian meatballs?
Begin by mixing the breadcrumbs and milk until evenly combined, then set them aside. In a large bowl, you want to combine the different meats together with the onion, garlic, some salt, and pepper. Mix with your hands for the best results, then add the bread and milk mixture, eggs, parsley, and cheese. Continue mixing with your hands until the entire thing is combined but not over mixed. Form into balls about the size of a golf ball.
To cook, pour a few tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet and brown the meatballs on all sides. Add some marinara sauce and lower the heat, cook them until they are brown all the way through.
What are the ingredients for Swedish meatballs?
Swedish meatballs have a much different taste than Italian meatballs. These tend to be a little sweeter and rather than being cooked in a marinara, they are covered in a delicious beef sauce. For these meatballs, you'll want some ground beef and ground pork, plain bread crumbs, egg yolk, allspice, nutmeg, and some sweet onion.
Fudio / Getty Images
How do I make Swedish meatballs?
Begin your Swedish meatballs with the onions. Lightly cook them in a saute pan with some olive oil until they are translucent but not beginning to brown. Set them aside to cool. In a large bowl mix the meat, bread crumbs, egg yolk, spices, salt, and pepper. Once cool add in the onions and mix with your hands until combined. Form into meatballs and brown in a frying pan of oil on all sides.
rudisill / Getty Images
What are the ingredients for Kofta?
Kofta meatballs are considered by many to be the first meatballs ever, and while there are a wide variety of kofta meatballs out there, these Middle Eastern koftas are full of authentic spices. These meatballs require some fresh parsley and mint, garlic, ground coriander, cumin, cinnamon, ginger, and allspice, a pinch of cayenne pepper, some onion, and ground beef.
Paul_Brighton / Getty Images
How are kofta meatballs made?
Begin by preheating your oven to about 425 degrees Fahrenheit and rather than chop your onion, use a grater and grate it. Combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and mix them with your hands. Turn the mixture into balls about the size of a golf ball then set them on a baking sheet and bake them in the oven for just under twenty minutes or until they are cooked through and no pink remains.

What do I need to make albondigas meatballs?
Albondigas meatballs are a traditional Mexican meatball that is usually served as part of a soup. They are made with ground pork or ground beef, not both usually, an egg, some garlic and cilantro, a bit of cumin and cooked rice. The soup ingredients are chicken broth, celery, carrots, potatoes, canned diced tomatoes, cumin, oregano, and cilantro.
Stanislav Ostranitsa / Getty Images
How do you make albondigas?
Begin by filling a soup pot with the chicken brother, celery, carrots, potatoes, diced canned tomatoes, cumin, oregano and cilantro and bringing the pot to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and begin working on the meatballs.
Combine all the meatball ingredients together in one bowl and as you form the meatballs into balls gently drop them into the simmering soup liquid. Once all the meatballs are added, allow them to simmer in the pot until cooked through!

Nearly 15 years after losing Seth, the Nelsens have found their peace, they said. They want to help other survivors of suicide find it as well, even though making those connections can intensify the terrible memories around their son's death.
Still, the Nelsens assured the Laws, the pain eventually becomes less severe.
Seth, they told the Laws, seemed to have everything going for him. He had friends, a loving family, a passion for rock climbing and karate, and a good job as a computer scientist. Yet, inexplicably, he hanged himself on April 8, 2001, in his Dallas apartment. At the time, Robert Nelsen was a professor at the University of Texas in Dallas.
"We thought he was doing so well," Jody Nelsen recalled. His death "had to be an impulse thing," she said. "Not something that was planned." The same seemed to be true for Jeff.
Research has shown that suicides are commonly impulsive. While some involve careful planning, many seem to occur during a crisis, such as a romantic breakup or job loss. Substance abuse and depression often play a role, studies suggest, but the "acute period" of risk for suicide often is only minutes or hours long, according to a 2007 study in Houston of survivors of nearly lethal suicide attempts.
Researchers asked participants in the study, 153 people ages 13 to 34 who survived serious suicide attempts, how much time passed between the moment they decided to commit suicide and when they actually attempted to kill themselves. One in four deliberated for less than five minutes, and nine of 10 deliberated for less than a day. Other studies have shown that most survivors of suicide said their attempts were a result of "interpersonal conflict" with a family member or partner, and were not linked to major depression or psychosis.
Suicide is the second-leading cause of death, behind "unintentional injuries," for people between the ages of 25 and 34, according to statistics kept by the National Institutes of Health. Men commit suicide four times more often than women, and firearms are the most commonly used method.
For families like the Nelsens and the Laws, the question of "Why?" typically goes unanswered. Neither Seth nor Jeff had been diagnosed with a serious psychiatric disorder. Neither wrote a suicide note, leaving their families to speculate what kind of mental torture they were experiencing in the minutes before they killed themselves.
Like Seth, Jeff seemed to be on a path to success, although his life was not without some personal and professional challenges.
He was born on Valentine's Day 1990 and raised in the college town of Iowa City, playing sports with his three brothers and idolizing Batman and other superheroes. His father practiced orthopedic surgery, and his mother stayed home with the children. "Jeff was determined, stubborn and smart, even as a kid," Julie Law said. He was a big reader, and as he grew older was particularly drawn to books about positive thinking and self-improvement. He was fit and muscular from lifting weights, and had an easy, dimpled smile.
At the University of Northern Iowa, he earned a degree in integrative physiology and worked with the school's strength and conditioning staff. There, he found his calling: working with athletes to make them bigger, faster, stronger. "He knew he wanted to be the perfect strength and conditioning coach," his mom said.
Jeff received his master's degree in exercise and sports sciences at Texas Tech in Lubbock, where he also interned with the strength and conditioning department and taught undergraduate classes. Following graduation, he interned under the University of Mississippi's chief strength and conditioning coach.
In 2014, he joined Sacramento State as an assistant coach, designing and overseeing training programs for golfers and soccer and football players. Jeff put long hours into the entry-level position, which paid him around $25,000 a year, according to Sacramento State Athletics Director Bill Macriss. Friends said that although he was financially stressed, he was pleased about realizing a dream of getting paid to help athletes improve their form and performance, and he hoped he would soon get a substantial raise.
"He was so energetic all the time, 100 percent committed to everything he did, always working to improve," said Dave Redman, a friend who worked with Jeff at Sacramento State and now is an athletic trainer for the Republic FC soccer team.
Jeff bounded into the training room before 6 each morning, brimming with enthusiasm, and 12-hour days were not uncommon for him, Redman said. He loudly urged athletes to "smash the weights!" and "attack each set like a savage!" He pushed them to give maximum effort, congratulating them when they did so and chiding them as "soft" when they failed.
During his last days, according to friends and text messages on his phone, Jeff was sad about a romantic breakup, worried about living on a shoestring budget in California and disappointed about being passed over for a promotion.
Redman, 24, last talked to his friend in late July. Jeff had grown serious about a woman he had been dating for a few months. He seemed happy. Work was exhausting, but satisfying.
On the last weekend of the month, Munayer drove up from Berkeley to visit with Jeff. A few other buddies came by Jeff's midtown apartment, and the group headed out to Goldfield's and the Republic Bar & Grill for a night of partying. The next morning, they met for breakfast. Munayer was slightly taken aback, he said, because Jeff had been smoking marijuana. "It wasn't the Jeff I knew," he said. But the two texted during the week, and all seemed fine.
On Friday, Aug. 7, Jeff went to a grocery store, where according to a receipt he bought a gallon of milk and a carton of orange juice, among other provisions. Later that night he seemed to be in crisis, and began reaching out to friends via text message, Julie Law said.
"Guess who just got dumped? Boooooo," read a message he sent at 1:21 Saturday morning.
One of his football players did visit sometime after 2 a.m. and stayed about three hours, Jeff's mother learned. The player told her that Jeff was troubled about money and romance, but seemed much better by the time they parted.
Jeff's last text, to two friends, was sent at 7:45 a.m. "Love you buddy," it said.
Early Sunday, according to his calendar, Jeff was supposed to meet the women's soccer team for a whitewater rafting adventure. He never showed up. "Where are you?" players repeatedly messaged him.
He contacted Redman, who agreed to head over to Jeff's apartment to check on him.
"We found him. That's all I really want to say about that," Redman said.
Jeff, who had purchased a small-caliber handgun while living in Texas, died from a gunshot wound, Julie Law said. Two empty beer cans sat on the kitchen counter. Jeff's apartment appeared in order, with his toothbrush and other toiletries lined up in the bathroom. His wallet and keys were in his pocket.
President Nelsen said he learned of Jeff's suicide from Athletics Director Macriss. Memories of his own son's death raced through his mind. Fearful of the news leaking out via social media, Nelsen immediately arranged to meet with Jeff's athletes.
He waited for practices to end, then stood in front of the women's soccer team. "We have had a tragedy," he said. "We have lost part of our family." Nelsen cried along with the players, some of whom collapsed onto the grass, weeping. The scene was similar when he broke the news to the football team.
Then Nelsen reached out to Jeff's parents.
When the couple arrived in Sacramento later that week, Nelsen told the Laws that Seth's death, though devastating, changed him in ways both positive and profound.
At the University of Texas Pan American, where he served as president before taking the helm at Sacramento State on July 1, Nelsen pushed for the establishment of a food bank for needy students, and he and his wife created an emergency fund in their son's name. They hope to do something similar at Sacramento State.
Back in Iowa, the Laws are just beginning to come to term with Jeff's suicide, and pondering life without him. Ed and Julie Law packed up their son's Jeep last month and drove it from Sacramento to Iowa City, traveling the same roads and staying in the same hotels their son did on his way to California last year.
Their surviving sons – Tom, Jacob and John – are resuming the lives they had prior to Jeff's death. Ed has returned to work. Grief comes in waves. Some days, Ed breaks down and Julie comforts him. On other days, he is the strong one.
The Laws were surprised and uplifted by the presence of Jeff's friends and colleagues from the Sacramento area who traveled to Iowa for his memorial service, where a weight bench and nutritional supplements decorated the altar and everyone exited the church to the theme from "Star Wars." They have treasured every note of love and comfort that friends and acquaintances have written. They have been awestruck by the support of Sacramento State and in particular the Nelsens.


The universes can't have you.
I had the lord to keep me warm.
But it's over now, and the melt water molasses and silt spittle is all we have left.
Chains on your tires won't keep you sane. Nibs in the rubber wale won't curb your slip.
I loves my tree, and I loves me critters.
But sometimes love just ain't enough.
Sketches are sketches and should remain sketches.
bones bulge like pocket change.
I kneeled in the dirt berm to thumb down the earth burgles.
And we'll stay all night.
It's New Year's Eve! Kiss a stranger and tell the world.
Ah the crumbling aftermath of festivities. I can't think of anything I love more… oh yeah, you.
are all those from the pentax k1000? if so, i taught you well, i mean…see i told you photography is easy. A++ on the little yapper in the window.
You! Update this site. Everyone is waiting for something new!

"I want to put out something timeless": The unstoppable vision of Rich Brian
On 'The Sailor', the LA-via-Jakarta rapper is more vulnerable than ever before...
01.08.19 Words by: Felicity Martin
As a teenager in Indonesia, Rich Brian was obsessed with the film La La Land. "I remember Emma Stone talking about people that have crazy, huge dreams, and people that have dreams that don't make any sense," he says of watching the Hollywood blockbuster. "And I just related to that so much. I got really emotional watching that movie." The city of stars that the movie revolves around is now home to the 19-year-old Chinese-Indonesian rapper, who upped sticks to the US from Jakarta two years ago.
'The Sailor', Brian's just-released second album, was inspired by this trans-continental upheaval and his newfound immigrant status. He's used the record as a chance to shine a spotlight on his native land: single 'Kids' was accompanied by a touching visual homage to his hometown, featuring Jakartans from all walks of life, a roadside pop-up restaurant known as a warung tenda, and the commonplace sight of three people riding a motorcycle. "I realised that loads of people don't know what my home country looks like," he says down the phone from LA. "Even Sean [Miyashiro, Brian's manager], he was like 'I don't fucking know what Indonesia looks like!'"
A video recently emerged of Brian playing 'Kids' to Indonesia's president Joko Widodo, known affectionately as Jokowi. As an official with a well-documented love of heavy metal, Brian wasn't sure how his style of rap, often laden with expletives, would go down as he pulled up to the palace dressed "super neat" with his family. But the president approved, giving him a tour of the compound and his pet goats – something quasi-symbolic for Brian after his 'Back At It' artwork found him posing with the farmyard animal. "I had to tell him about my whole story of like, you know, I was homeschooled and learned English on YouTube. He kept saying, 'Oh wow, two years, the progress is really fast!'"
"I don't think I've ever seen a reaction like that to anything that I've put out," he continues about the video. "I remember showing the cut to my mom and sister and they both cried. Apparently it made a lot of other people cry, like, especially Indonesian people. When I see those comments, I just think, 'Wow, I made it.' It's like mission accomplished, basically, because I love when art makes people feel a certain way."
Rich Brian's success story is one that will surely go down in the canon of rap. He began life as a meme, a 16-year-old in a pink polo and bumbag who rapped under the name Rich Chigga (one he now regrets using), with comedic rap tune 'Dat $tick' going viral through Vine. A Ghostface Killah verse on the aforementioned track was followed closely by co-signs from 21 Savage and XXXTENTACION, and he signed to 88rising, the label founded in 2015 by industry magpie Miyashiro that helped push East Asian rap to the forefront of global consciousness. In 2018, Brian would become the first Asian artist to reach the top spot on the iTunes hip-hop chart with his debut album, 'Amen'.
'Amen's follow-up is a serious display of Brian's artistry and musical progression; a movement away from the hyped-up trap of his past releases, it zeroes in on a more orchestral, full-bodied sound, with dusty boom-bap sitting next to luxe string sections and guest slots from Wu-Tang's RZA and Joji. The record, though, was the result of a trying time, that came seemingly out of nowhere for the rap phenomenon.
"I learned there's a lot of a lot of grey areas in life, you know, a lot of things aren't black and white"
Around nine months ago, Rich Brian gave up smoking. The nicotine withdrawal had a weird, unexpected effect on him: he started to suffer from bad anxiety and kept throwing up. As well as the side-effects of giving up the Juul, he'd also gone through a break-up and a bitter month of writer's block. "I was, like, going through it on this album," he laughs. "It was such a sudden thing that happened in my life that I learned a lot from it," he continues. "I learned there's a lot of a lot of grey areas in life, you know, a lot of things aren't black and white. Your perspective on things can change really fast – it's like, a really trippy thing. I've been doing a lot of meditating and trying to stay sober as I can all the time. I've been a lot more mindful of my mental health."
Album cut 'Yellow' opens with lyrics that might seem alarming given this information: 'How do I disappear without anybody knowing?', Brian sings, 'Will anybody even miss me when I'm gone?' The track swerves into an exploration on the nature of hip-hop and legacy, delving into the concept of posthumous releases, how his music might be considered in the future, as well as his East Asian identity. 'Bitch, hello?' he spits, 'Don't fight the feeling 'cos I'm yellow', riffing on a racial slur. It's a powerful portrayal of his come-up and the obstacles he's had to tackle along the way.
Fifty per cent produced by Brian, 'The Sailor' also sees production from Bekon, the once-mysterious brains behind much of Kendrick Lamar's 'DAMN.', as well as The Donuts, a group of six producers who are "so musically talented," he says. "They can just come up with the craziest chords." The recording process was uncharted territory; "my first time really letting go," Brian admits. They'd hold jam sessions, connecting a bunch of instruments to a computer with a mic in the middle of the room and record live. "We would jam for like three hours and then come up with 20 or 30 different little ideas. And then at the end of the day we'd listen to it. And then we're like, 'Okay, which idea do we want to turn into a full song?'"
"It's me realising that, like, if I put this album out, it's going to be out there forever. I want people to be able to listen to it, like 20, 30 years from now."
The biggest difference between this and his last work, he explains, has been his mindset. "I really found my writing style," he says. "It's me realising that, like, if I put this album out, it's going to be out there forever. I want people to be able to listen to it 20, 30 years from now. I want to put out something timeless."
"Back in the day there would be a lot of times where I would sacrifice actual lyrics for flows," he continues, "and I really avoided that this time. I made sure that what I was saying was very vivid and understandable. So someone can listen to it and it almost feels like I'm talking to them. This is not going to be just a hip-hop album, because, who knows, maybe [I] could become someone that people that don't listen to hip-hop can listen to and still love?" he wonders.
Brian's own love of hip-hop started as a self-described loner kid back in Jakarta, fixated with watching YouTube clips of Childish Gambino, Tyga, Macklemore, 2 Chainz and Drake, committing their lyrics to memory. No longer a homeschooled teen with no friends, Brian is now living out a contemporary form of the American Dream and rubbing shoulders with famous musicians, though he admits it "definitely gets lonely sometimes".
"This one time, I had my 19th birthday in America, my first time celebrating without my family," he continues. "I didn't think it was gonna affect me that much, but that was definitely a really weird, lonely point in my life. The next day, I was just sad. And I couldn't tell what it was, it was this weird thought in the back of my head. My girlfriend at the time, she was like, 'What's wrong, you seem kinda off today,' and I started bawling my eyes out."
Brian goes back to Indonesia every six months to see his family, something that makes him feel like he's "living a weird double life – every time I come back there feels like I never left. It feels like my life in LA doesn't even exist." Album cut 'Curious' addresses this fractured relationship with his past life head-on: 'I went from good wine to seein' tears in my mom's eyes / I don't blame her, though / She used to feed me, now I live alone'. "When I first got to LA I remember going out with my friends," he recalls, "we were going out bowling and it was 10pm and I was like, 'Yo shit, is my mom gonna call me and tell me to get home?!' And then I realised she's on the whole opposite side of the world."
Sending a message to Asian youth that they – like him – can achieve success is an important function of 'The Sailor'. On 'Kids' Brian raps: 'Might steal the mic at the Grammys just to say we won / That everyone can make it, don't matter where you come from.' It's a statement that's truer than ever before. Pan-Asian collective and label 88rising have made an indelible mark on culture, causing the careers of Brian, Joji, Niki and more to skyrocket, and making for an organic fusion of Eastern and Western culture that makes sense within our ever-more-connected world.
88rising are known for putting out visuals that are as strong as the music and, sure enough, 'The Sailor' arrived with a 15-minute short film directed by Sing J. Lee, a visual depiction of Brian's backstory and the record's themes. It expresses his dual identities, flitting between snapshots of him as a child with his family and hyper-American tropes of fast food production lines and baseball games, and also envisions a Black Mirror-esque future of Rich Brian holograms performing to an empty club.
The showbiz world La La Land depicted is one that Brian now wants to inhabit. "I really want to get into acting. I'm still gonna make music," he promises, "but I really want to focus on what I'm passionate about, which is acting." Looks like Rich Brian won't ever stop exploring uncharted waters.

Geordie Shore star Holly Hagan is in the process of removing her Kyle Christie tattoo, and she took us along to her latest laser tattoo removal sesh.
The reality TV lass received the tattoo of Kyle's face, on the back of neck, during their appearance together on Just Tattoo of Us.
"I have been extremely scarred by previous lasers, so Chris had to try and solve that. So I'm going to show you now the difference between one and a half sessions," she finished up with.
Holly then went on to share two pictures of her tattoo. One from when she suffered scarring from her previous lasering and a more recent picture after and one and a half recent corrective treatments.
Fingers crossed Holly will be seeing the back of that tatt in no time.

Q: Align two datasets in Python I want to develop some python code to align datasets obtained by different instruments recording the same event.
As an example, say I have two sets of measurements:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Define some data
data1 = pd.DataFrame({'TIME':[1.1, 2.4, 3.2, 4.1, 5.3],\
                      'VALUE':[10.3, 10.5, 11.0, 10.9, 10.7],\
              'ERROR':[0.2, 0.1, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2]})

data2 = pd.DataFrame({'TIME':[0.9, 2.1, 2.9, 4.2],\
                      'VALUE':[18.4, 18.7, 18.9, 18.8],\
              'ERROR':[0.3, 0.2, 0.5, 0.4]})

# Plot the data
plt.errorbar(data1.TIME, data1.VALUE, yerr=data1.ERROR, fmt='ro')
plt.errorbar(data2.TIME, data2.VALUE, yerr=data2.ERROR, fmt='bo')
plt.show()

The result is plotted here:

What I would like to do now is to align the second dataset (data2) to the first one (data1). i.e. to get something like this:

At this stage I do not want to make any assumptions about what function best describes the data (fitting will be done after alignment).
I am cautious about using means to perform shifts since it may produce bad results, depending on how the data is sampled. I was considering taking each data2[TIME_i] and working out the shortest distance to data1[~TIME_i]. Then minimizing the sum of those. But I am not sure that would work well either.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a good method to use? I looked at mlpy but it seems to only work on 1D arrays.
Thanks.


On Thursday's MSNBC Live, host Craig Melvin invited Connecticut Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal to complain about Congress not passing new gun laws since the Sandy Hook school shootings five years ago. The Democratic Senator was like a broken record as he complained that Congress had been "complicit" in shootings, and took aim at the NRA.
After Wednesday's attempted murder of Republican congressmen, their staffs, and a protective detail by a far-left activist, NBC's Tom Brokaw went in the opposite direction, lecturing views on Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly about how America faces the "common threats" of conspiracy theorists like 9/11 truther Alex Jones.
Former ABC, CBS and NBC anchor Katie Couric takes on the National Rifle Association and other Second Amendment supporters in a new film entitled Under the Gun, which will debut at 8 p.m. on Sunday, May 15, on the Epix pay cable channel.
With Monday marking the third anniversary of the horrifying murders of 20 children and their teachers in Newtown, Connecticut, the CBS Evening News and NBC Nightly News used the somber occasion to lament the lack of gun control passed by the GOP Congress and compared the need for gun control to seat belts and passing a driving test to obtain a driver's license.
On Monday night, ABC and CBS covered the news that families of ten people who lost their lives in the deadly school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in 2012 were filing a lawsuit against gun manufacturer Bushmaster as it was maker of the rifle used by Adam Lanza in his horrific rampage.
ABC's World News Tonight with David Muir mentioned it in a news brief while CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley had a full segment that, surprisingly, featured CBS News correspondent Don Dahler presenting a balanced report on the issue that included him pushing back multiple times against the attorney representing the ten families.
On Tuesday, continuing MSNBC's obsession with Chris Christie, Rachel Maddow attacked the Republican New Jersey governor for his position on guns. Christie recently vetoed a bill that would have reduced the number of bullets in a gun magazine from 15 to 10, much to the chagrin of The Rachel Maddow Show host.
Governor Dan Malloy (D-Conn.) recently signed a bill preventing photos and videos of the Sandy Hook shooting victims from being released to the public. The bill had broad support from the victims's families, and was the subject of a petition on change.org that gained over 100,000 signatures.
Chris Matthews on Monday offensively connected Senator Ted Cruz with the actions of disturbed conspiracy theorists who believe the Sandy Hook massacre was a government plot. Talking to Connecticut Governor Daniel Malloy, the Hardball host lectured, "While the world has viewed last December's massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary school as an unspeakable tragedy, some gun rights dead-enders have seen it more as an inconvenient truth."
Matthews began by asking Malloy, "What is it that springs it out of our country's culture that people won't even accept reality in fights like this?" Later in the segment, he played a clip of the "far-right" Cruz battling with Dianne Feinstein last week over gun rights. Matthews snarled, "Well, there you have it. This is the face of the new Republican right." What does the Republican senator from Texas have to do with "Sandy Hook Truthers?" Absolutely nothing. But Matthews wanted to smear Cruz with the association. Ironically, it was the cable anchor who, on February 14, mocked Cruz as the new "Joe McCarthy."
