Celebrating May Day weekend at Halfway II Heaven
This weekend is the May Day Bank Holiday and the team at the multi award-winning Halfway II Heaven have a cabaret line-up bursting with fresh acts and big laughs. Dave Cross spoke to Marc Kelly about what we can expect from Friday to Tuesday.
Hi Marc, how has 2019 been so far in the sequinned cabaret bunker we call Halfway?
We have the best team 'at your service' and we pride ourselves on being a safe space and the beating heart for the whole LGBTQI+ community and our allies. 2019 has been amazing so far. We've packed so much into the week now including our new Monday 8:30pm 'Early Doors Cabaret' that there's not one night that won't keep you entertained.
The May Day weekend starts on Friday with your screening of RuPaul's Drag Race, how have these been going?
RuPaul's Drag Race has universal appeal and it's been a huge hit with the regulars. Tanya Hyde is the Oracle when it comes to all things RuPaul so she's makes the perfect host. We were testing the water as of course the UK version hits our screens later in the year and it's safe to say RPDR is staying on our big screen for the foreseeable future.
And this Friday, that's followed by your Boyz Gold Award-winners The Vixens… for anyone who hasn't had the pleasure, can you describe them?
After stepping into CK's broken heels (Crystal's bad back) at the weekend I would call them reliable, hard-working, and right on the money knowing what an audience wants. If you'd asked me before the weekend I would probably have said the exact opposite… I jest of course, the Vixens are actually an extension of Crystal and Kelly's drag family.
Bonkers is the word that springs to mind for Saturdays at Halfway, what's on for this one?
Saturdays at Halfways are always epic. There's that mix of regulars, unsuspecting tourists and those who have come purely to let their hair down. Mrs Moore is back opening the show at 4pm and she will be no doubt be 'Ringing Those Bells' (them bells!), she knows what I mean. Rose Garden is celebrating eight years and one week in residence and in Rose's words they're all mad at Crowd Control. Tanya Hyde takes the 8pm slot, whipping up a pop and Disney Princess frenzy and then the scene's hottest property Heart & Soul take the reins at 10pm for the ultimate soul, disco sing-a-long party in town.
What do you have planned for CK Sunday on the 5th?
It's the busiest Bank Holiday Sunday of the year for CK. There's always a few surprises. but I don't like to give too much away or what is the point? But what I will tell you, and is really exciting, is that directly after CK Sunday at 8pm the legend that is Bette Rinse comes out of 'retirement' AGAIN. She's as old school as you can get but guarantees the laughs and an irresistible rendition of Sweet Caroline, all together now…
What is the lovely Krystal Ball up to on Bank Holiday Monday?
Krystal Ball is the kindest most genuine queen on the scene… apart from Kelly Mild of course. She's so popular and she has so many friends some of whom will be joining her for a Bank Holiday Monday afternoon that will be just magic. It's called Something Groovy and features fully fledged stars of the scene and also those on the rise including Vera Yoga Vogue, Kat K Kitten and Alexis (once seen never forgotten) StClair.
And then it's your first Drag Idol heat on the Tuesday, what's the scoop this year?
We've streamlined it to just three heats this year, so our heats stay full, time-wasters beware. Myra DuBois is hosting, Tanya Hyde (2008) winner is head judge. As a venue Halfway has done pretty well over the years with Drag Idol champions Kelly Mild, Martha d'Arthur, Vileda Moppe and reigning champion Felix Le Freak all still working and showing no signs of slowing down. A special mention to Crystal D'Canter who came second in year one for Halfway's sister pub The Leinster and has not stopped working since. The BBC are currently writing a film based on her life.
Entry is free.
Halfway II Heaven, 7 Duncannon Street, Charing Cross, WC2.

At Voyage's End, Some Final Thoughts...
/blog-post/24909/at-voyages-end-some-final-thoughts
What a voyage! Certainly I've had my fair share of challenges along the way but we have also had plenty of great successes (due largely to the hard work of those on my various teams), and a few tie scores as well. As I look back over these past four years in particular, there were a number of solid accomplishments and a few stubborn difficulties -- but at the center of it all were wonderful human relationships.

It also made the commitment to ensuring NATO is capable of dealing with 21st century challenges, as well as the commitment to further strengthen connections with our global partners. Most importantly, the Chicago Summit demonstrated our commitment to each other - the unbreakable bond between North America and Europe, which remains the bedrock of our security.

Understanding risk allows us to calculate how much we should spend on defense compared to what our potential opponents are spending.

UCLA Luskin to Welcome 3 New Social Welfare Scholars
January 15, 2020 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Les Dunseith
Three new additions will join UCLA Luskin Social Welfare's world-class faculty in the fall, Dean Gary Segura has announced. Judith Perrigo, Margaret "Maggie" Thomas and Brian TaeHyuk Keum will become members of the teaching and research roster as assistant professors. Perrigo's work focuses on the determinants of well-being, experience of abuse or neglect, and readiness for kindergarten among children from birth to age 5. She holds an MSW from USC, and, after several years of practice, is completing her doctorate there. Thomas, who earned an MSW at the University of Illinois, is a scholar of family and child well-being. She is completing her Ph.D. in social work at Boston University. Thomas' work focuses on young children in families facing serious economic hardship, as well as children and youths from minority communities or with an LGBTQ identity. Keum is finishing his Ph.D. in counseling psychology at the University of Maryland, having previously completed an MA in counseling psychology at Teacher's College, Columbia University. His work examines interracial dynamics, cyberbullying behaviors, and measurement issues in the study of bias and racism online. "I am beyond pleased to welcome Maggie, Brian and Judith to the Luskin Public Affairs faculty and the Department of Social Welfare," Segura wrote in a memo to staff and faculty.

Akee Addresses Lack of Diversity in Economics
January 14, 2020 /0 Comments/in Luskin in the News, Uncategorized Randall Akee /by Zoe Day
Associate Professor of Public Policy Randall Akee's views on the lack of diversity in the economics profession were featured in the Economist after the annual American Economic Association conference in San Diego. Conference attendees expressed concern that the lack of racial and gender diversity within the profession has limited the field by excluding certain perspectives. At the conference, Akee joined a panel on "How Can Economics Save Its Race Problem?" to speak about the pressures to be taken seriously as a scholar, not merely a race scholar. He explained his decision to postpone the research he wanted to do on indigenous people and work instead on other subjects, in order to be taken seriously as an economist. Akee argues that race should occupy a more central space within the portfolio of economic research. Despite efforts to increase diversity within the profession, many economists worry that this movement will stall before achieving long-term change.

Villasenor on 5G Cybersecurity Challenges

John Villasenor, professor of public policy, electrical engineering and management, spoke to the Wall Street Journal about the potential challenges of 5G cybersecurity. While 5G is expected to be 100 times faster than 4G, enabling new technologies and strengthening security, Villasenor remained cautious. He predicted that some cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities will not be addressed right away. "I'm not very confident that we're going to be on top of these problems," he said. "People only get cybersecurity right after they get it wrong. We're going to learn the hard way, and hopefully the mistakes will not be particularly costly and harmful."
Matute on E-Scooters in Santa Monica
November 27, 2019 /0 Comments/in Luskin in the News, Uncategorized Juan Matute /by Myrka Vega
Juan Matute, deputy director of the Institute of Transportation Studies at UCLA Luskin, spoke to LAist about the future of e-scooters in Santa Monica. "Santa Monica has a relatively stable system … that can demonstrate to other parts of Southern California what might be possible," Matute said. The city launched a pilot program of 3,250 dockless scooters in September 2018. Matute said its manageable level and investment in quality over quantity is key to its success, in comparison with Los Angeles' pilot program of 36,000 e-scooters and e-bikes. "It would be hard for any group of people to regulate that many devices," he said. Better roads and investment in bikeways are also key, he said. While Santa Monica's new green bike lanes are a step in the right direction, Matute advocated for more bike lanes that are segregated from car lanes.
Monkkonen on Affordable Housing for Moderate-Income Angelenos
October 17, 2019 /0 Comments/in Luskin in the News, Uncategorized Paavo Monkkonen /by Myrka Vega
Paavo Monkkonen, associate professor of urban planning and public policy, spoke to Curbed LA about the availability of affordable housing for moderate-income people in Los Angeles. Many residents must pay a burdensome price for shelter yet do not qualify for affordable housing because their annual income surpasses the $56,000 threshold. The Los Angeles City Council voted to examine why there is a shortage of housing options for these people. Monkkonen argued that studying the restraints on moderate-income housing development could lead to city policies that make it easier to develop more housing in the city. He said policymakers and the public believe only certain types of housing need to be built. More housing in general is needed, he said. "All multifamily housing getting built quicker would help everyone, including middle-income residents," he says.
Turner Tracks Effectiveness of 'Cool Pavement' Technology
October 7, 2019 /0 Comments/in Luskin in the News, Uncategorized V. Kelly Turner /by Mary Braswell
A CityLab story on the city of Los Angeles' efforts to pursue "cool pavement" technologies to address rising urban temperatures featured the research of V. Kelly Turner, assistant professor of urban planning. While other cool pavement studies have measured surface and air temperature, Turner's research is the first to focus on "mean radiant temperature," which is most related to thermal comfort. Turner and Ariane Middel, assistant professor of arts media and engineering at Arizona State University, studied unshaded streets in Pacoima and Sun Valley that had been coated with an asphalt mixture called CoolSeal, which reflects, rather than absorbs, the energy from sunlight. They measured air temperature, wind speed, humidity and radiation from morning to sundown, and their preliminary findings will soon be published by the American Meteorological Society. The project is one part of a greater effort to collect data on the effectiveness of strategies to address so-called urban heat islands.
Armenta on Dignity and the Immigration Debate
September 27, 2019 /0 Comments/in Luskin in the News, Uncategorized Amada Armenta /by Mary Braswell
Amada Armenta, assistant professor of urban planning, penned a post on the role of dignity in the immigration debate for Oxford University's Border Criminologies blog. "Decriminalizing immigration offenses and creating a path to a legal and permanent immigration status would allow millions of immigrants to live more dignified lives," Armenta wrote. But she cautioned that deploying arguments that rely on immigrants' dignity may actually be counterproductive. "To combat stereotypes about immigrants' criminality, we rely on tropes that highlight immigrants' best qualities — they work hard, they provide for their families, and they do not commit 'real' crimes," she wrote. "However, in our attempts to legitimize immigrants, to convince people that they 'deserve' policies that would be less harmful, we inevitably leave people out. We may champion the most 'worthy' and exceptional immigrants at the expense of those for whom it is more difficult to advocate, such as those with criminal convictions or prior deportation orders."

Mukhija on Meeting Affordable Housing Needs

Urban Planning Chair Vinit Mukhija held a wide-ranging dialogue about affordable housing with state Sen. Bob Wieckowski (D-Fremont) on the podcast Then There's California. Mukhija's research focuses on informal, makeshift housing in the United States and abroad. He has studied slums, border areas and farmworker dwellings but noted that unregulated and unpermitted shelter is becoming more commonplace in cities and suburbs. Wieckowski has sponsored legislation to remove barriers to the creation of granny flats, garage conversions and other so-called accessory dwelling units. "This can be a very reasonable way of adding housing supply from our existing physical resources," Mukhija said. In addition to addressing the growing demand for affordable housing, regulated accessory dwelling units can bring in significant property tax revenues, he added.
Leap on Indictments of MS-13 Street Gang
July 29, 2019 /0 Comments/in Luskin in the News, Uncategorized Jorja Leap /by Mary Braswell
Social Welfare Adjunct Professor Jorja Leap spoke with BBC World Service's Spanish-language news outlet about the Fulton clique of the MS-13 street gang. A federal indictment of 22 of the gang's members detailed brutal acts across Los Angeles, according to BBC Mundo. Federal officials said 19 of those indicted are undocumented immigrants from Central America who arrived in the past three or four years. The Fulton clique actively recruits young people, who often behave impulsively and unpredictably, Leap said. Youths who have experienced poverty, poor education, trauma and mental illness are particularly susceptible to gang overtures, she said. The indictments came as MS-13's influence in the region has waned. Leap said 1,200 homicides were recorded during MS-13's boom, but last year the number had dropped to 300.

'I See Our Future and It Looks Amazing' Commencement speaker Janet Murguía urges UCLA Luskin graduates to use their 'public affairs nerd' superpowers for good
June 19, 2019 /0 Comments/in For Students, School of Public Affairs, Uncategorized Gary Segura /by Mary Braswell
By Mary Braswell
As members of UCLA Luskin's Class of 2019 walked across the commencement stage to receive their hard-earned master's and doctoral degrees, each took on a new mantle: Advocate. Warrior. Watchdog.
And don't forget "Superhero."
"I believe being a public affairs nerd is in fact a superpower, one that if used for good can transform the lives of millions of people," keynote speaker Janet Murguía told the 260 graduates at the June 14 ceremony at UCLA's Royce Hall.
Murguía, president and CEO of UnidosUS, the nation's largest Latino civil rights organization, challenged the graduates to put their educations to work in the world — a feat requiring determination, patience and resilience.
"Your degree and everything it represents can be a force for good," she said. "We desperately need people with your talents to help us defend and build that more perfect union."
The newly minted policy, social welfare and planning scholars and professionals are entering the workforce at a pivotal time, UCLA Luskin Dean Gary Segura said.
"The next 18 months are among the most important in the history of this nation. We face a critical time in deciding who we are as a people, what values matter to Americans and what our historic role is in human history," Segura said.
"I want to thank you, perhaps prematurely, for all that we expect you to do with all that you have learned."
Segura shared the stage with faculty members from every department, noting, "Luskin faculty engage the world as it is, to diagnose and hopefully help address our many challenges." The hiring of 14 faculty members over two years and the fast expansion of the new undergraduate major in Public Affairs are just two measures of the School's growth, he said.

Following the conferral of degrees, crowds surrounded the graduates at an outdoor reception, offering congratulations, taking photos and admiring regalia decorated with "UCLA 100 Years" to mark the university's Centennial Celebration. Mortarboards showed off personal touches, often thanking families and friends who buoyed the graduates as they worked toward this milestone day.
Student speakers echoed that spirit of gratitude throughout the commencement ceremony.
Robert Gamboa of Public Policy memorialized his twin brother, Albert, who died seven years ago. "His passing was one of those crystal-clear moments when everything and nothing made sense," Gamboa said. "But I knew then that I must double down my efforts to fight for social justice."
Gamboa's classmates represented different backgrounds and value systems, he said, "and yet we came together as one. We found something in common, something at our very core, something that led us here to Luskin to expand our knowledge. And that something has energized us, guiding us, creating a bridge to change — smart, systemic, lasting change that will save lives."
Social Welfare speaker Gabriela Andreina Peraza Angulo told her classmates, "The world really needs us right now, maybe more than ever. Injustice, greed, inequity, racism, forces of discrimination, of violence, of exclusion. Forces of sexism. And did I mention racism? All of these forces are gaining in strength. …
"But they're not counting on us. Here we are. And we're ready to build those bridges instead of a wall, we're ready to connect instead of divide."
Caroline Calderon urged her Urban Planning classmates to challenge power structures in a rousing address that incorporated oral histories she conducted with about 15 of her peers.
"We have seen the possibilities of radical community action," she said. "Our commitment involves sharing the knowledge we have and being humble about that knowledge, and recognizing the power and privilege that we have been given.
"This is our commitment, to be accountable to our own convictions and values, to be accountable to poor people, to black and brown communities, not in words but in action."
Three students received special honors at commencement. The Public Policy Student Award went to Lindsay Graef, who earned her MPP and MSW concurrently. Michelé Dianne-Shaunte Jones won the Social Welfare Student Award, and Jacob Wasserman won the Urban Planning Student Award.
Murguía's address included a poignant tribute to her parents, who instilled a sense of purpose and possibility in their seven children.
"Two humble, simple people from Tangancícuaro, Michoacán, in Mexico with little means worked very hard, sacrificed much and dedicated themselves to the education of their family, and to the service and care of their community. I am a witness to — and in many ways evidence of — their belief in the American Dream," she said.
"However your generation defines the American Dream, I know that, like my parents, you will leave the world a better place than you found it," Murguía said. "You know how I know? As I look out at you today, graduation day, I see our future and it looks amazing. I can't wait to see where your superpowers will take us."

Q: Tail the most recent file I have a program that logs its output to an *.out file when running.  I set up a bash script to run several different times, so each run writes to a different *.out file.  I found that I could tail the most recent *.out file like this:
watch tail $(ls -tr *.out | tail -n1)

The problem seems to be that the referencing $() only gets executed once.  So when the first run finishes, watch continues to tail the same *.out file, even though there is now a newer *.out file.
How can I alter this to go to the next *.out file after one run finishes?
I tried doing some nesting of quotes and parentheses, but I don't really understand the details of referencing.  Matters are complicated by the fact that watch passes its command to sh, even though I'm using bash.
Bonus points:  it would be great if this could be modified to tail -f instead of just repeating watch every n seconds.

A: I also dealt with this problem and finally came to this solution:
 watch "ls -t1 | sed q | xargs tail"

Need to get a bit hacky for the bonus. The tail command also supports an argument --pid which makes tail die as soon as the referenced PID dies. Sounds good? Here's some pattern you could use:
while true; do ls -t1 | sed q | xargs lsof -F np | sed 's/.\(.*\)/\1/g' | xargs tail -f --pid 2>/dev/null ; done

This basically tracks the most current file and restarts tail when the file writing process ends.

A: If all the files exist to begin with, and you have a modern implementation of tail that can handle multiple files,
tail -f *.out

would seem to be the best solution. But if you don't have all the files to begin with, then it would still be easiest if you just created them. *.out will expand only to the files you already have.
But if you can't know the filenames for tail -f before you start, then you will need to restart tail if any new outfiles are created while you are tailing. In that case, given you are only writing to each outfile one at a time, you could do:
inotifywait -m -e create -q . | while read dir event file; do
    kill %tail
    tail -f "$file" &
done
kill %tail

(The above requires inotifywait, which is included in inotify-tools on Debian-based systems like Ubuntu.) It watches the current directory for newly created files, tails whichever file was created, in the background, and kills the previous tail command whenever a new file is created.

A: So, I'll duplicate a little my current answer:
Tail the most recent file
you could use very simple command to resolve your issue:
tail -f *.out

tail works with a multiple files too and it's possible to use it like:
tail -f file1 file2 file3

So, as you can see, it's very powerful and easy tool and you don't need to play with linux commands

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS' HOCKEY NOTES
The Pembroke girls' hockey team struck out on its own, and it's flourishing
By Dan Shulman Globe Correspondent,Updated January 29, 2019, 6:46 p.m.
Pembroke celebrates after senior captain Carly Birolini scored the tying goal with 18.1 seconds left in a 2-2 draw at Hingham on Jan. 9.Lenny Rowe/For the Globe
In its fifth season as an independent program, hard work has been the mantra for the Pembroke girls' hockey team.
The Titans have thrived not solely on talent, but on heart, effort, and desire.
Initially, Pembroke shared a co-op agreement with Whitman-Hanson for six years. But since the co-op ended, by mutual agreement —
with Whitman-Hanson now teaming up with Silver Lake — Pembroke has continued to flourish.
With a 5-3 victory over Notre Dame-Hingham last Friday, Pembroke earned its first win over NDA, netted its 70th overall win since going solo, and climbed back into the Globe's Top 20.
"In a nutshell, its unselfishness and everybody working together," said seventh-year coach Bill Flynn.
"The girls wanted their own team and they're making it work however they can."
Pembroke has benefited from a strong youth program and support from the community.
Flynn recalled a moment four years ago when many members of the current team attended a varsity game to acquaint themselves with the program.
"We have a good nucleus of talent at all grades," said Flynn. "The younger girls have stepped into leadership roles and the girls before put the program in the right position."
An 11-1-2 start this season was not expected by Flynn, or his players, particularly with just 12 skaters and a pair of freshman goalies on the roster. Despite the low numbers, Pembroke still manages to field a balanced lineup in which every player contributes.
Senior captains Carly Birolini, Nikki Rinkus, and Emily McCabe have been instrumental in instituting a family atmosphere.
"Because we're so young, our focus is on making everyone feel more involved," said McCabe. "Our team is very close this year, we all get along so well. Unlike in past years, everyone is involved."
A four-year varsity player, McCabe, shifted to defense for the first time this season. She volunteered to make the move after the graduation of the team's top four defenders. She has been Pembroke's best player on the blue line.
Each closing in on 100 career points, Birolini and Rinkus have combined for 34 goals and 17 assists. "We weren't expecting much at the start," said Birolini. "We've really proven ourselves and shown how far we have come."
Team-bonding has long been a big part of Pembroke's success. As important as it is to build relationships on the ice, doing so off the ice is what draws the team closer.
"We did a lot of preseason things coming into the year," said Birolini. "We've had pasta parties, gone to breakfast, and watched our next opponents play on LiveBarn together. There's been a lot of laughs."
Pembroke earned MIAA tourney berths in each of its first four seasons and has qualified again this season. Its postseason history includes two Division 2 quarterfinal losses in 2016 and 2017.
The latter was the Titans' best season, concluding with a record of 19-1-2. "We watched ourselves get too comfortable two years ago," said McCabe. "We need to work harder than the game before and not get too cocky or lazy by thinking we're the best."
This year's senior class is determined not to let history repeat itself.
With hard work comes reward. The Titans earned their first victory over Notre Dame-Hingham and captured the Judy Gormley Classic Championship in December with wins over Plymouth and Bourne.
"They give it everything they've got every time they touch the ice," said Flynn. "Everyone contributes, its all about the girls and they just want to be pushed harder everyday."
■ Wednesday night's showdown between Methuen/Tewksbury, ranked second in this week's Globe Top 20, and No. 3 Andover has been circled on the calendar by both teams since their first meeting on Dec. 18.
Andover (12-0-1) blanked M/T, 3-0, the lone defeat for the Red Rangers (11-1-1) this season.
"It is a big game for us," said Andover coach Kevin Drew . "It's a big game for them, too. We don't want to be too hyped for a game. It's one game in a 20-game schedule. We'll stay focused. If we play our game, we'll be OK."
Methuen/Tewksbury coach Sarah Oteri was a four-year player at Andover (Class of 2010) and served as the Golden Warriors junior varsity coach for two seasons before joining the Red Ranger program in 2015. Oteri is 1-1-2 against Andover.
"It brings back a lot of memories for me," Oteri said. "But my heart is in this locker room now."
■ What has been the key to Franklin's hot start this season? Just a group of players who love the game.
"[The start] wasn't on my radar at all," said Franklin coach Margie Burke. "No one is trying to outdo anyone, they're all just having a good time playing."
The Panthers skated to an 11-1-1 start, which has only served as motivation to play harder.
Burke has kept the team focused by dividing each game into a best-of-three format. "We have this mentality where we're doing the best of three," said Burke. "Our first three games, we got all three, and now we've broken it down to the best of three periods."
■ With a 3-0 win over Archbishop Williams, Austin Prep senior goalie Hannah Aven i recorded her 27th career shutout – breaking the school record of 26 set in 2016 by Caty Flagg .
"There's a full team of troopers behind her that help to make that all happen," said AP coach Stephanie Wood. "She's a really great kid, not very fixated on individual awards. She's very deserving, and she's had a great career at Austin Prep so far."

Haim's 'Women in Music, Pt. III' May Be Their Best Yet…
Malvika Padin·
The much-anticipated third record, Women in Music Pt III, from pop-rock sister trio Haim takes a deep dive into the sister's own troubled psyches and expansive as it answers the frustratingly over answered question of "How does it feel to be a woman in music?" while maintaining a chill, confident vibe.
Meshing their conventional sound on the track "The Steps" and the glam rock sensibilities of "Up from a Dream," with the experimental touches of glitchy electronics on track "I Know Alone" and the bright, ska-tinged opener "Los Angeles," the multi-instrumentalist group, the album references frustrations, isolation, and depression. Where singer and guitarist Danielle vent her frustration on "The Steps" with a relentless clamber on the drum kit, she is resigned and relatable on "I Know Alone." Where she details the all-too-familiar feeling of being stuck in an emotional slump on, "Now I'm In It"– a jittery offering that pushes with all its might at the clinging discomfort supplied by one's own mind – she kicks off with a fighting mood on acoustic-led "I've Been Down," a punk-tinged track with poignant lyrics– "taped up the windows of the house / But I ain't dead yet"– gentle soundscapes and soft backing vocals.
For an album drawn the darkest crevices of their own experiences, WIMPIII is surprisingly comforting with its presence. The country-tinged track "Hallelujah," for example, dedicates itself as a tribute to the strength the sisters offer each other in times of need; whether Danielle's struggles with depression, Alana's grief over the loss for of best friend, or Este dealing with her Type 1 Diabetes. In a similar vein of providing comfort, "Summer Girl" witnesses Danielle position herself as a beacon of hope and light – singing to "I see it in your face / I'm relief / I'm your summer girl"– to her boyfriend and the band's frequent producer Ariel Rechtshaid while he was being treated for testicular cancer.
The record's strongest point isn't the deep, dark lyricism, but its ability to balance the heaviness that comes with life or death topics on tracks like "I Know Alone" with light-hearted odes to late-night texts and voicemails from potential suitors on R&B-leaning "3 AM."Haim's cheeky humor and spunky bite are out at full force on "Man From The Magazine," which speaks of the intriguing impossibility of being a "female" rock star; the folksy offering with deadpan lyrics is accurate, hilarious and a perfect representation of the album itself. As the record title itself is meant to be a humorous jab at anyone still treating women in music like a novelty or rarity in 2020.
Apple Music Up Next Presents: Shenseea
As vulnerable as it is fearless, and as soothing as it is humorous, Women in Music Pt. III is Haim's best yet, delivering what was expected and much beyond.

Q: can't run the python-social-auth example django app Apologies for the basic question. I am a user of django-social-auth but can't get python-social-auth off the ground.
I have downloaded the example app, successfully sync'ed the db, and added my working facebook, linkedin and twitter app keys to settings. When I run the app I get the sample homepage with all the social media links.
When click facebook OAuth2 I get an http error: 400 Client Error: Bad Request. Implying that url callback into my server to (/complete/facebook/) is badly formed.
When I click LinkedIn or Twitter I get http error: 401 Client Error: Unauthorized.
Have I missed a bit of the config? Has anyone got the example app working out of the box?
Thanks - Guy.

A: Did you set your secret and key for LinkedIn and Twitter in your settings.py?
Once that is done you may have to set the redirect urls with those providers.
I tested with google and had to fix my Google API Access settings.
I changed redirect urls to http://localhost:8000/complete/google-oauth2/
UPDATE:
I am having issues with LinkedIn on oauth1 & 2. There doesnt appear to be a way to get the required API key into the request. I have attempted to hard code in the oauth1_auth.py of requests_oauthlib but with no success yet.
UPDATE 2:
Twitter worked for me by making sure my twitter developer application settings had "Allow this application to Sign in with Twitter" checked and my consumer key and secret set in my settings.py like so:
# TWITTER
#
SOCIAL_AUTH_TWITTER_KEY = '<...>'
SOCIAL_AUTH_TWITTER_SECRET = '<.....>'


EVER since local soccer players under the umbrella body Uganda Footballers Association (UFA) downed their tools demanding improved welfare, words have been spoken, accusations traded and inevitably the Uganda Super League (USL) had to be put on hold.
Express have since suspended or even sacked some players for what they referred to as indiscipline. Maroons have forced their striking players to explains reasons for the action in writing and they will be handled one by one.
And with FUFA objecting to the involved clubs request for emergency transfer window New Vision Online has discovered that most of the disgruntled players are destined to Africa's newest country South Sudan.
The players are targeting South Sudan's league that kicks off in June 2012 and the least paid player reportedly expects to pocket $1,000 (sh2.5m).
Although this is expected to veer players to the oil rich in droves it will not be the first case as Ugandan players have moved to neighboring Rwanda and the Vietnam in multitudes before.
Now curiosity has driven us to ask questions: Just how much are Uganda Super League players paid? Who is the biggest earner? Which team has the highest wage bill?
We delved into details of some clubs. We investigated the wages of players in different clubs and learnt that at sh800,000 per month, minus match winning bonuses and additions, SC Villa's renegade captain Dennis Guma currently on loan at Victoria University is the highest paid league player, with the university picking up his monthly wage bill.
He is closely followed by URA's veteran defender Simeon Masaba who pockets sh750,000 from the tax body. However, a bulk of players earn anywhere between sh150,000 and sh400,000.
Forget the times in the late 1980s and early 1990s when players' salaries were not documented. The then SC Villa boss, Patrick Kawooya (RIP), paid his players depending on the mood at a particular time. Under the present regime, everything seems streamlined.
The salary cap at SC Villa is sh700,000 with the lowest earner at sh180,000. Lunch is offered to the first-team squad only.
Transport allowance isn't uniform as it is given basing on one's place of abode. They pocket sh20,000 for a win, and none for a draw or a loss. Steven Bengo is the highest paid SC Villa player and earns a monthly salary of sh570,000.
Players in Express FC, the oldest premier football club in Uganda should be longing for the days of Club legend Jolly Joe Kiwanuka or self-made money-bags, Godfrey Kirumira, a.k.a Baggery.
Is it surprising that all 19 players from the club who failed to honour the fixture against Simba FC are either expelled or suspended? Well, the first Ugandan club to use football boots in 1957, doesn't compare favourably in terms of payment.
But until last season former club chairman Kavuma Kagenge paid them appearance fees which depended of win or loss without salaries.
Players currently earn a standard salary of sh250,000. They are also provided with a transport allowance of sh5,000; sh20,000 for a match win, sh10,000 for a draw and nothing for a loss.
The team that trains in Kanyanya on Gayaza Road is now provided with lunch.
Even though the club belongs to FUFA president Lawrence Mulindwa, the fortunes of the players don't really jingle. The only advantage is the fact that they are paid timely i.e. on 28th of a month.
Transport allowances for players range between sh3,000 to sh7,000, depending on one's contract. The players are, however, lucky that there is a Kitende school Coaster that takes them to and from Kibuye Dairy.
Players earn a constant match allowance of sh20,000 irrespective of whether they win, draw or lose a game. Their lunch and breakfast is catered for.
Player's salaries range between sh150,000 to sh400,000, with Caesar Okhuti, Martin Muwanga and Tony Odur among the top earners.
The Luzira prison-based club plays one of the most entertaining brands of football in the Ugandan Super League but their salary isn't as 'entertaining' in the estimation of some players like top marksman George Abege, who was among the players who refused to honour their fixture last week over pay.
Information obtained shows that players, all of whom have undergone training and graduated as prisons officers, take home sh268,000 every month. They are entitled to bonuses, accommodation and utilities catered for by the Prisons Force. There is a fixed match allowance of sh12,000 while transport is at sh6,000.
Since they reside on prison premises, breakfast and lunch shelter are also provided for them.
Even before Pioneer Easy Bus came in to cause ripples among the UTODA fraternity, the complaints over pay were well documented among the players.
This tells you that maybe the football club has no direct links with the taxi governing body. Indeed, contrary to widely held belief, the club doesn't belong to UTODA's Katongole; but rather it is owned by Yahaya Nsubuga and Sande Mulira.
The owners are currently negotiating with Kampala Central legislator Hajji Mohammed Nsereko who wants to buy off the club. Nsereko has advanced the team sh9m to settle the players five month salary arrears as negotiations go on.
At the club, players are promised sh2,000 as transport and sh10,000 as match allowance but they have never pocketed any for five. In fact UTODA players were the first to strike.
On paper the club agreed to pay their players sh5,000 for a win, sh3,000 for a draw and nothing for a loss. Their unpaid salary is fixed at sh100000.
Run and owned by tycoon and FUFA vice president Mujib Kasule, all isn't rosy.
Players pocket sh3,000 for transport, and a match-winning bonus of sh15,000. Their salary ranges from sh150,000 to sh400,000 for first team players. Abubaker Tabula and Richard Luyima are among the top earners.
The edge they have over other teams is that players for this club are insured. However, the insurance cover doesn't translate to their bank balance as players pocket between sh150,000 to sh280,000 per month.
They have a match allowance of sh20,000 for a win and Sh15,000 for either a draw or a loss. The club that trains from Kibuli is also provided with breakfast and lunch.


THE MODERATOR: With head coach Tony Bennett and the University of Virginia, Ty Jerome, Mamadi Diakite, and Braxton Key.
TONY BENNETT: Obviously, just excited to come away with a hard fought win. I thought these guys really came to play. They played for each other defensively. I hope — they did it at the end of the first half all through the second half against Gardner-Webb, and then all game they just rotated and covered and made it hard for Oklahoma.
They ran their hard stuff. You know, an uncharacteristically cold shooting night from Kyle, but they withstood that, some foul trouble from De'Andre. These guys that are on the podium and the guys in the locker room, they stepped up and big plays were made and it certainly felt good.
Q. Ty, it seemed like there was some carryover from the opening game. You played very loose in this one, very relaxed, as opposed to some of the pressure you mentioned feeling in the opening game. Did it feel a little bit more comfortable tonight?
TY JEROME: Yeah, but like I said, after last game, just a testament to our coaching staff really. They're doing such a great job of giving us that freedom offensively and just getting us to play hard but allowing us to play free. That's just such a great job by them.
Q. Braxton, what did you think when Kyle fed you that little pass there on that one play?
BRAXTON KEY: Kyle, he's an underrated passer. He can make a lot of plays passing the ball, creating for teammates, stuff like that, but he just has eyes in the back of his head. It was a good find. I should have dunked it, but my legs were a little tired.
Q. Mamadi, another big scoring game for you. Kind of what do you attribute to your last few games scoring? What's been clicking for you?
MAMADI DIAKITE: I've just been very patient and letting the game come to me. I wasn't trying to force anything, pretty much.
Q. This is sort of playing off of that, Mamadi. You really seemed locked in tonight from being able to hedge past the top of the key and still sprint back and defend in the post. Were you locked in? Was it your night?
MAMADI DIAKITE: Yeah, I was locked in, and I was trying to respond to the challenge Coach gave me. He started me tonight, and I wanted to prove him that I was ready to play. So I did so.
Q. Braxton, in their first game, Oklahoma was able to get to the rim very easily against Mississippi. Obviously, the way you guys played defense, it's designed to stop that, but how much of a focus was keeping them away from the rim tonight?
BRAXTON KEY: It was huge. Our coach just told us I think they got most of their points from a two-point field goal. So just trying to get in the pack and make it more difficult for them to get inside. When they got inside, just post trapping their guards and try to give them different looks that they may not have seen prior to today.
Q. Ty, talk about advancing to the second weekend for the first time in a while for this group. What does it mean to you?
TY JEROME: It means everything to me, honestly. It's my first time in the Sweet 16, like I said. After last game, I told you I've never been to a Sweet 16. Everyone is talking about a Final Four, but I've never been to a Sweet 16. Just the opportunity to play with this group again for a whole 'nother week and practicing with this group and traveling with this group, that's what means the most, I think. Just to keep playing with this group of guys.
Q. For all you guys, coach just talked repeatedly about urging you to enjoy the joy of pursuing a championship. How much does the enjoyment grow, I guess, game to game, round to round, as you get some momentum and you get really into this?
TY JEROME: Yeah, I don't think the joy necessarily grows because every time we step on the basketball court, you have to understand how blessed you are to play the game you love. I think it's just, like I said, another week, more opportunity to play with the teammates you love for the coaches you love and for the fans you love.
But we're nowhere near relaxed, nowhere near satisfied. We're not even close to our end goal. Just got to come day by day and get ready to practice on Monday.
MAMADI DIAKITE: Thinking of what he just said, we try to enjoy every step that we have, but, again, the job is not done yet. We've got more games to go, more preparations, and we have to know what other teams have for us. In order to get to the next phase, we need to prepare ourselves.
Q. Mamadi, you said that you wanted to respond to your coach's challenge because he decided to start you today. When did you find out you were starting, and what exactly did he want to challenge you to do?
MAMADI DIAKITE: It was this morning, and I mean, starting is a big — to me, it's a big challenge. He's telling you, okay, you have the responsibility to help the team, and we're trusting you. So I just answered to it.
THE MODERATOR: Thank you, gentlemen. Questions for Coach Bennett?
Q. Tony, Ty said the other day that a big reason for Mamadi's success this year is because of how much he's grown as a person. Have you seen that, and how has that sort of manifested in his play?
TONY BENNETT: Yeah, he's matured. I think a key, I said it after the game, is he allowed us to play Doolittle one-on-one in the post. Mamadi's quickness off the floor to bother maybe his midrange shot and just work so we didn't have to come and trap. That puts a lot of pressure on their defense with your ability to shoot from three, especially their four man, Brady Manek. When we could go one-on-one, that was significant.
I think Ty made a great statement. We got off to a rocky start last game, Mamadi, all of us, and Mamadi responded. He just kept playing and stayed steady. So certainly maturity, resilience, those are things that — you know, it's just part of the maturation process that each player kind of comes at differently, and I say it all the time. He's newer to the game, and he's young and joyful and all those things, and to be able to handle adversity or a hard start, that's a separator for a lot of players. He's definitely coming in the right direction, and he was terrific yesterday and today.
Q. We already asked the guys, but it seemed like maybe there was some tightness or pressure in that opening game. Certainly, the circumstances of the game played into that. Tonight they seemed like they played very relaxed and free. Did you notice that? Did you notice it pregame, during the game, or do you think I'm crazy?
TONY BENNETT: No, only the guys in the locker room and the coaching staff who were part of last year's team and this year's team can truly appreciate and understand — you know, we tried to get back to this spot. Even to be a 1 seed and then to have to go into the situation and to be down in that game, definitely pressure in terms of the game. So that was real. You could feel it. And to show the resilience to kind of get through that.
Then I was hopeful that they could play — I don't think it was no worries. There's pressure and excitement and tension to try to advance in this tournament, that's always there, but it was a different feel. It's unlike anything — well, no college basketball team really in the history of the game has had to go through that. It's our doing. We were the first 1 seed to lose last year, and then all of a sudden to fight back and become a 1 seed, and then to be in that situation again. You talk about trying to focus in and then getting down, it was real. So I think those guys will have that as something they can always draw upon to say we faced a giant and battled through it.
So I think that, for sure, they were in a better place to start this game. We tried to be in a better place. That's a credit to how Gardner-Webb played to start the game, as well.
Q. Tony, I seem to keep feeding questions that people asked before me, but to my trained eye, this looked like one of the best games you guys have played in a while. Everything seemed to go smoothly. The rotations on offense and defense went well. Is that the way you saw it?
TONY BENNETT: I thought we played enough quality basketball. We had to be ready from the start, and we got off to a real good start, and then we had a little trouble at a stretch there. But we were steady and got good lifts, and again, to absorb not shooting as well from Kyle and the foul trouble from De'Andre, different guys — Braxton stepped up, Kihei was terrific, Mamadi. Obviously, Ty and all the guys did the job, but I think that there was a playing for each other defensively, as I said in my opening statement, and sharing the ball and just trying to — you know, you get into these possession games trying to impose your will or outlast, and that was part of it. Both teams were playing hard, and fortunately, we just had enough good plays and stops at the right time.
Q. Tony, when did you decide to start Mamadi? And how important was he to that fast start and then rebounding back from that little run Oklahoma had after you went up?
TONY BENNETT: He started the second half against Gardner-Webb, and we thought, well, Jack Salt is so physical, and we thought maybe he could play one-on-one against Doolittle. But what we wanted to do offensively, I thought there was some more scoring opportunities for how we were going to attack for Mamadi, how to roll and get on the rim and make some plays. And then his quickness, I thought might be a factor. That's the reason why, and that was planned on.
I was mulling it over. I told him at the morning walk-through that my plan is right now to start Mamadi, but I'm not 100 percent sure. So I had an out in case I didn't start him, but that's how it played out.
Q. Tony, you didn't mention him yet, but it seemed like Jay Huff gave you a big lift in the first half.
TONY BENNETT: Yes, absolutely. Terrific.
Q. Two big baskets that got the crowd going and a couple of blocked shots also defensively.
TONY BENNETT: Yeah, absolutely, Jay, his length, he scrambled. He did a good job defensively. His dunk, the three. That's what you need in these settings for different guys to come in and step up. We know who our main three guys are scoring, but you saw it from Mamadi and Jay and Kihei with big baskets and timely plays. I was going to play Jay in the second half, but our defense was going and the matchups were right, so I did it and he was phenomenal on the bench. He's coming. His best basketball is there. He and Mamadi are continuing to improve, but big lift from Jay.
Q. I know you're going to enjoy this one, but have you thought ahead a little bit to Louisville and a place you're familiar with, you've been to, you've had some great moments there in that arena?
TONY BENNETT: Not really. Just survive and advance. Now we go and play there. I'm not even sure who we play, if that game's over or not. So we'll get to all that stuff. But we will enjoy the pursuit of what we're doing.
