The Eagles 'Golden' Ticket Arrives
(Photo: John McMullen/973espn.com)
PHILADELPHIA (973espn.com) - So what's been the difference with the 2018 Eagles versus the Super Bowl version a year ago?
Well, let's put it as plainly as we can. Through eight games in 2017, the then 7-1 Philadelphia team had allowed 149 points through eight games. The 4-4 group this time around has eerily allowed 149 at the midway point.
The difference is on the other side of the football where the offense averaged 27.3 points per game a year ago versus 22.3 now.
The Eagles needed a playmaker on the offensive side of the ball and Howie Roseman did his part at the trade deadline, renting YAC-machine Golden Tate from Detroit in exchange for a 2019 third-round pick.
Tate isn't the typical diva WR despite massive production over the years. He's a smart, understated worker who quickly realized the passion he was placed in the middle of when flying from the Motor City to Philadelphia on Tuesday night.
On board were about a dozen Eagles fans trying to make it back to the City of Brotherly Love from London, where the Birds arguably stayed in the buyer's market by topping Jacksonville.
The chatter grew as the fans began to realize the newest Bird was about to take flight with them. Tate took a seat next to a man who eyed him before moving to his phone to confirm it really was the Golden Tate.
A conversation ensued and turns out the fan worked for the IRS and gave Tate the heads up on the much-maligned Philadelphia wage tax, telling the veteran receiver to pursue an exemption to road games.
"I can't put into words how excited I am to be a part of such a strong, passionate fan base," Tate said Wednesday during his introductory press conference at the NovaCare Complex.
Taxes aside Tate is more concerned about making the last eight games on his current contract good ones for his new team.
"I'd love to be here for as long as you all accept me," Tate said. "What I meant by at least the next eight games is I kind of plan on going to the playoffs and playing a few more."
At 4-4 the Eagles are two games behind Washington in the loss column with those eight games to play in the NFC East race. As far as the conference, chasing down the Los Angles Rams and New Orleans Saints is unlikely at this point but the acquisition of Tate is a clear indication by Philadelphia that the postseason remains the goal.
"I think the sky's the limit for this organization," Tate said. "We just won a Super Bowl, not even a year ago. We definitely have the pieces. Now's the time to get hot. Going into November with five more division games coming up. ... Second [in the NFC East], right there in the mix."
With the Eagles on the bye week, Tate will get a few extra days to get settled off the field as well as beginning a crash course in Doug Pederson's offense. At 5-foot-11, he's often stereotyped as a slot receiver but Tate spent the majority of his career playing on the outside successfully before Detroit realized it had something in Kenny Golladay and moved Tate inside.
In Philadelphia, Tate is immediately the team's best outside receiver after Alshon Jeffery and the top slot option despite the presence of Nelson Agholor and Jordan Matthews.
"I want to do whatever's going to help this team win," Tate said. "When the ball's in my hand, I want to be able to make a play. And if I can help our young guys, like Nelly and Alshon, and the other guys we have, and anything with technique or knowledge, I'm going to do that. I just want to win."
A former running back who made the move to WR in college at Notre Dame, Tate's trademark is a powerful lower body which allows him to break tackles that typical receivers simply cannot, compiling an NFL-best 1,528 yards after the catch since 2016.
"My mom always told me, 'You can't hit what you can't catch'," Tate said. "I don't like to be tackled, so I just try to fight for every yard. I feel like when I get the ball in my hands, there's a chance I can break it and take it."
The Eagles are counting on that.
"Hopefully it all works out," Tate mused. "I want to be here and just know from Day 1, I'm all-in."

http://zunelicious.blogspot.com/2006/10/interview-with-bill-wittress-hey_08.html

"I love working on Zune. It is incredibly entrepreneurial. You literally have 10 different things going on at any given time. On any given day you may meet with senior management, have an interview with an analyst, crunch numbers for finance and meet with a partner for dinner. The next day it will be completely different."

Zunelicious recently scored an interview with Zune's lord of accessories, Bill Wittress. He talks about some interesting things that we can expect next month - the magnitude of the launch, the quantity of accessories available, and integration with the Xbox 360. The latter is something I'm deeply interested in. Sure, MediaTags and device playback support are great, but there is so much potential still waiting to be unearthed. Here's hoping Microsoft makes up for the shortcomings with a firmware update.

Ubisoft to Continue its NFT Endeavors
By Tokoni
If there is any sector that has seen a lot of overlap with the NFT industry, it is gaming. Think about it; NFTs are essentially digital assets that we interact with mostly in the virtual world. Out of context, this could be referring to an in-game loot box or an artifact you unlock after defeating the final boss.
As such, it should come as no surprise that many gaming companies have been incorporating NFT elements into popular titles. However, these have not all been well-received by the gaming community.
An example of this is Ubisoft, a top game company that has received mixed to negative responses to its Ubisoft Quartz NFT platform. Despite this poor response, the company has made it clear that it will continue investing in NFTs.
A week ago, Ubisoft announced that one of its games, Ghost Recon Breakpoint, would no longer be receiving any updates or NFTs. Following this announcement, some had speculated that Ubisoft would be ceasing all NFT efforts and shuttering Ubisoft Quartz entirely.
However, according to a statement posted on the official game page, Ubisoft clarified that while this specific game would no longer receive NFTs, other NFT endeavors will be pursued.
"Thank you to all Ghost Recon® Breakpoint players who claimed their first Digits! You own a piece of the game and have left your mark in its history. As the last Digit for Ghost Recon® Breakpoint was released on 3/17/2022, stay tuned for more updates with features to the platform and future drops coming with other games!" the notice says.
When the NFT program was launched by Ubisoft, it was only available to those who had invested at least 600 hours of gaming time. They would be able to buy and sell exclusive Ubisoft NFTs that were related to each game.
Unfortunately, the launch was rather controversial as many players believed they were being taken advantage of by the company rather than being rewarded. It is unclear how customers will respond to future NFT ventures by Ubisoft given the expectation that Ubisoft Quartz would be shuttered.
However, this response is not unique to Ubisoft as a company. Different NFT projects in the gaming world have been released by Behavior Interactive, GSC Game, and even the actor Troy Baker to negative reviews, with the latter even canceling his projects shortly after.
Failure to Launch?
On paper, gaming and NFTs seem like a match made in heaven. So why have so many NFT efforts in the gaming community failed?
A consistent criticism leveled by fans is that they feel that these projects do not provide meaningful value but instead, feel like a cash grab by the companies that launch them. There might be some truth to this.
After all, if there is any consumer demographic that has never had an issue financially backing products that they love and vocalizing their distaste, it is the gaming crowd. For now, we can only hope that Ubisoft and other companies are able to fully leverage the power of NFTs in a way that appeals to the fans.

Share Draper Collection
One of the richest stores of source materials relating to the trans-Appalachian frontier from the mid-18th century until after the War of 1812 is the Draper Collection in the State Historical Society of Wisconsin Library. The collection was amassed by Lyman Copeland Draper (1815–91), who devoted his life to gathering records of border heroes and their descendants. In his quest he traveled more than 60,000 miles, many of them on foot or bicycle. The manuscripts deal with the frontiers of New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, and the Carolinas. Those dealing with West Virginia matters are especially useful for the French and Indian War, Dunmore's War, and the Revolutionary War, as well as persons such as George Rogers Clark, Daniel Boone, Simon Kenton, Samuel Brady, and others.
Draper's hopes of writing biographies of Clark, Boone, Brady, and others were never realized. Nor did he accomplish his dream of using the Draper materials to annotate and produce a new edition of Joseph Doddridge's famous Notes on the Settlement and Indian Wars of the Western Parts of Virginia and Pennsylvania. Nevertheless, Reuben Gold Thwaites and Louise Phelps Kellogg of the Historical Society drew upon the papers to publish five volumes of valuable documents, one on Dunmore's War and four on the Revolutionary War. Thwaites used the collection for a new edition of Alexander Scott Withers's Chronicles of Border Warfare, another classic of West Virginia history. The Draper Collection also enabled Virgil A. Lewis to complete his History of the Battle of Point Pleasant, in which he corrected the mistaken view, which he himself had once held, that the battle was the first engagement of the American Revolution.
As the value of the Draper Collection became better known, some people in areas from which Draper had obtained materials regretted that they had allowed such useful records to be moved to Wisconsin. Librarian John Trotwood Moore of Tennessee tried in vain to persuade the Wisconsin legislature to order the State Historical Society to return to Tennessee 90 volumes of records from that state. In the 20th century, however, the advent of microfilm resolved difficulties faced by distant scholars desiring to use the Draper Collection, and the Draper records became readily available to researchers everywhere.

first comes love: Happy Birthday Daddy!
So besides JMK & trivia & presents, a birthday isn't a birthday without a cake! And since Nick is seriously itching for his first round for the year, I decided to whip up a GOLF CAKE! I found my inspiration on Pinterest (where else?!) and followed THIS tutorial.
Overall, it turned out pretty cute. I used store bought frosting (like I would ever seriously make my own!!) so my "grass" didn't really stand up, but I was OK with it. I also added a bunch of dark green sprinkles just to give it a little extra oomph and topped it off with a "Hole #28" flag (made in 30 seconds with scrap paper and a straw) inside of "Happy Birthday" because it was golf themed after all!
UPDATE: Avery LOVED the cake ... until 5:30am the next morning when it decided to come back up ... all over her bed, her walls, her carpet, her dolls, e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e. Let's just say, it looks the same going in as it does coming out. Needless to say I will NOT be making this cake again, nor will I ever touch/look at green frosting again!!

Q: python appending a value to a sublist I'm running into a problem in my program and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. To start I created an empty list of lists. For example:
>>> Lists = [[]]*12

which gives:
>>> Lists
[[], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], []]

However, when trying to append a value to an individual sublist it adds the value to all of the sublists. For example:
>>> Lists[2].append(1)

Gives:
>>> Lists
[[1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1]]

Is there a way to append to just a single sublist so that the result would look like:
>>> Lists
    [[], [], [1], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], []]

A: List objects are mutable, so you're actually making a list with 12 references to one list. Use a list comprehension and make 12 distinct lists:
Lists = [[] for i in range(12)]

Sorry, I can't find the original duplicate of this exact question

A: I ran into this same problem while trying to solve a topological sort problem.
try this:
Lists[2] = Lists[2]+[1]

Designer and electronics company team up in a new partnership
on Thursday,February 19,2009 19:02
It has been announced during the New York Fashion Week that LG Mobile Phones and designer Christian Siriano will combine their creative forces.
The partnership called Divas and Designers is a marketing collaboration which Siriano kicked off by designing a special garment inspired by the LG Lotus phone, both of which are being showcased today on the runway at Bryant Park.
"The LG Lotus - like a well-crafted garment - stands out in the crowd by fusing both style and functionality," says Ehtisham Rabbani, corporate vice president for LG Mobile Phones.
Siriano, for his part, adds, "Mobile phones are fashion accessories, and the LG Lotus is sleek, chic, and fabulous!"
Christian Siriano rose to fame following his win in season six of the reality show Project Runway.
The Divas and Designers partnership includes a nationwide program that allows up-and-coming designers to create and submit their own "mood boards" online. The winning board, to be selected by Siriano, will qualify its maker to spend a day with the designer in his New York City studio. The winner will then work with Siriano to co-create an accessory that will be presented at the designer''s show in September 2009.


The first point to take home is that the consumer sector (entertainment) and the enterprise sector (product design, training, product design and so forth) have experienced similar amounts of growth but the majority consensus is that this growth has been weaker than hoped in the consumer category. Enterprise seems to have experienced marginally more growth than consumer; this may be because entertainment applications still depend on the purchase and use of head-sets which remain relatively expensive and unwieldy. Doubtless, this will change as the technology is refined and the time when VR images are beamed directly on to the retina is surely not far off; the basic technology having been around for over twenty years.
The flipside of this is that there seems to be the greatest scope for growth in the enterprise sector because corporations are more able to invest in the expensive hardware than individuals. Education is the enterprise sector prioritizing AR/VR the most and the most competitive one, despite the fact that it traditionally has much less spending power than industry – of respondents who reported that they are already using XR technologies, 23% were in the education sector.

Q: Horizontal Fling starts only on offset 0 I am trying to implement fling. Problem is that I get it only when the X is on offset 0 (which means on the edge of the screen). When I try to have a fling in the middle of the screen nothing happens. This happens only on X. Y behaves OK.
Here is the code:
public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX,
        float velocityY) {
    try {

        if ((e1.getY() < CARD_POSITION) && (e2.getY() < CARD_POSITION)
                && (Math.abs(e1.getX() - e2.getX()) >SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE )
                ) {
            Log.v("Fling:",Double.toString(e1.getX()));
            return true;
        } else {

            return false;
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        return false;
    }

}

A: I've encoutered a similar issue in the past. It ended up being a error in the math of how I was comparing the x loction to the min distance threshold I was using. Based on what you're describing in combination with the code posted, it sounds as though the x direction fling is not working beacuse the different between x1 and x2, after applying absolute value, is not coming out to what you think.
From 0 offset, swiping the whole screen, you're able to register a fing because, with that much distance, the different between the 2 values is enough to trigger your threshold. But from the middle of the screen, say where x1 = 400 and x2 = whever the move event is registered, you're not triggering that threshold.
What worked for me was removing absolute value
public boolean onFling(MovtionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX, float velocityY){

if(e2.getX() - e1.getX() > MIN_SWIPE_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX)){
    Log.d("Swipe", "Left to right")
    return true;
} else if (e2.getX() - e1.getX() > MIN_SWIPE_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX)){
    Log.d("Swipe", "Right to Left")
    return true;
}

My reasoning was based on the GestureDetector docs which describe what e1 and e2 represent:

e1  The first down motion event that started the scrolling.
  e2  The
  move motion event that triggered the current onFling.

The error turned out to be an assumption in where th e1 intial ACTION_DOWN occurred relative to the ACTION_MOVE from e2

Watch: Elon Musk Says He's Not Suicidal During Live Twitter Q&A: 'If I Commit Suicide, It's Not Real'
Elon Musk said during a live Q&A session following the first batch release relating to the "Twitter Files" that he is not having suicidal thoughts, as some have been suggesting.
The comment was a response to a question about whether the new Twitter CEO was "suicidal" because there had been lots of talk about Musk's mental state.
"I do not have any suicidal thoughts … If I commit suicide, it's not real!" Musk said in laughter late Dec. 3 as 100,000 people tuned into the discussion on Twitter Spaces. The "Twitter Files" are a trove of documents revealing the Twitter's censorship activities in the lead up to the 2020 presidential election.
Musk joked that given the revelations in the files and his expressed plans to ensure that political powers have no undisclosed influence at the company going forward, powerful figures and institutions may want to him out of the way.
The series of internal Twitter communications, released by Musk's new leadership of Twitter and independent journalist Matt Taibbi on Friday, unveiled communcations showing how former Twitter executives censored reports about Hunter Biden's infamous laptop in the lead up to the 2020 presidential election.

The billionaire on Saturday also denied claims on media reports about Twitter being "some sort of right-wing hellscape," saying it's "absolutely isn't."
"And in fact there are far fewer bots, far fewer trolls and it's actually, I think, way more fun and interesting. And we're seeing that in the user minutes and in the daily average users."
Musk said that Twitter's censorship had been biased toward Democrats candidates, noting there there was "a very different standard applied to Republican candidates in the U.S. versus a Democrat candidates."
"I'm not saying this is definitely the case. There appears to have been a double standard where Democrats were not censored and and and left courses were not censored but right causes and Republicans were," he told Q&A session audience.
"I think this is frankly obvious to anyone who uses Twitter without any extra exposure of Twitter files. It was not even-handed."

Weekend Wonders: Cory Goodrich - David Nyro - Brufield - SLØTFACE
Cory Goodrich - Far Side of Lovin' You.
Background promo - Grappel/Cohen Recording Endowment winner Cory Goodrich pays tribute to the roots of country music and the Carter Family with her album, Wildwood Flower. Songs of yesterday and today are woven together with the Appalachian autoharp as the central uniting factor. Featuring five different harps, guitar, banjo, and mandolin, this acoustic set, produced by Malcolm Ruhl, explores the past and the future of traditional folk.
Cory has been seen on stages across the country in shows like Ragtime, Bridges of Madison County and Ring of Fire, where her portrayal of June Carter Cash earned her a coveted Jeff award and sparked her interest in the autoharp.
Born in WIlmington, Delaware and raised in Michigan, Cory Goodrich is a Jeff Award winning actress for her roles as Mother in Drury Lane Oakbrook's acclaimed production of Ragtime, and as June Carter Cash in the Jeff nominated Johnny Cash revue, Ring of Fire at Mercury Theater Chicago, where she was also seen as Alice in The Addams Family, and Alma in The Christmas Schooner. Coming this fall, Cory will play Carol Brady in the hilarious war between the Partridges and the Bradys in The Bardy Bunch.
Cory recently returned from the first regional production of he Bridges of Madison County, at Arkansas Rep. She has played Pepa in the midwest premiere of Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown at Theatre at the Center, Seussical the Musical at Chicago Shakespeare on Navy Pier and before that as Sr. Margaretta in The Sound of Music at Lyric Opera, Chicago. A five time Jeff nominee, Cory has performed in productions at the Marriott Theatre in Lincolnshire, Chicago Shakespeare, Theatre at the Center, Ravinia, Candlelight and Drury Lane. A Graduate of Michigan State University, she is also a singer/songwriter, producer, writer, and mother of two,children's composer with her two award winning CDs, Hush and Wiggly Toes. Website here.
'Far Side of Lovin' You' is the first of twelve songs on 'Wildwood Flower'. It's an album that explores classic country and folk songs along with some new material, doing so with superb musicianship and Cory's outstanding vocals. Indeed her vocals give the collection it's identity, so that old standards take on a different feel, albeit whilst remaining true to their original roots.
David Nyro - Stand.
Background - With his powerful music video for "Stand,"soulful singer/songwriter David Nyro sings from the heart about the tragic Syrian refugee crisis. A prolific writer whose retro pop has earned him comparisons to Jackson Browne and Don Henley, Nyro calls "Stand" a determined plea for action and an attempt to answer the difficult questions surrounding the conflict in Syria: "How many children must wash up on a beach? How many millions of lives must be torn asunder? How many hundreds of thousands must die before we do something?"
According to Nyro, he saw a tweet by well-known humanitarian Dr. Alison Thompsonshortly after recording "Stand." Thompson, who has courageously volunteered her humanitarian services to help refugees for more than 22 years, tweeted about not standing for all the violence and heartbreak in Syria. She insisted that "we need to stand up for the refugees." Thompson is also an acclaimed filmmaker, with Sean Penn presenting her award-winning film, The Third Wave: A Volunteer Story.
Compelled to let Thompson know about "Stand," Nyro asked if she wanted to hear it. She did, and decided to put "Stand" in a new documentary she is making on the refugee crisis. Thompson also granted Nyro permission to use some of their unused footage and stills of the refugees that videographers Ian Stevens and Zack Bivins (Amphora Media) incorporated in the video for "Stand."
Always the optimist, Nyro calls the Syrian civil war and resulting refugee crisis a "chance for compassion, redemption, transformation, and amazing grace." He admits that while "Stand" was "born out of pain," he hopes it can provide an opportunity for "awareness, change, and peace." Website here.
Our second David Nyro feature this year, this time with 'Stand' a poignant song to say the least. It's also one of those music videos that adds a vital dimension to the song. As for the song itself, it's passion and concern for one particular problem mankind faces, is genuine and heartfelt!
Brufield - Goodbye.
Background - Australian based pop rockers Brufield have had a busy 3 years cementing their reputation as one of Perth's must see bands. Fusing captivating melodies with powerfully emotive vocal delivery, Brufield take audiences on a rollercoaster ride of emotion from the lows of their brooding ballads to the highs of their sparkling pop anthems getting even the most skeptical of pundits tapping their feet!
The band are excited to release their much anticipated new single, 'Goodbye'. The track is being launched through The A&R Department and is being backed by a national tour and a short tour run in the UK and Ireland. In June 2015 the band released their debut EP, Cracked, which was very well received by music press, scoring 4/5 stars with themusic.com.au.
In November 2015 the band released the title single from the EP, 'Cracked', along with a poignant music clip. This clip attracted a lot of attention due to its controversial content. January 2016 saw Brufield launch their ambitious double A-side single. This double single explored the light and the darkside of Brufield. The release was met with widespread acclaim, with AMNplify dubbing the band as 'One of the bands to watch in 2016'. "Goodbye" by Brufield will be released 30th of September 2016. Website here.
'Goodbye' has all the content to expect from an indie rock song, where the band really do want to stand out in the crowd. Melody and power combine to give us a three minute plus blast of quality pop'n'rock.
SLØTFACE - Bright Lights.
Background - SLØTFACE lift the lid on new single 'Bright Lights' – a melancholy mood-brood signaling the release of forthcoming EP 'Empire Records' on November 18 via Propeller Recordings. It showcases a more mature sound for the Norwegian four-piece – with a bass line that harks back to ultimate 90's alternative bands, a la The Pixies – while retaining their signature pop-punk sheen.
"Bright Lights is about escaping from things that are going on in your own head and in society in general by distracting yourself, especially from the minor and major personal issues we all have," explains vocalist Haley Shea. "It's about a desire for escape, and a break from dealing with things that might seem too hard.
"We recorded it at Ocean Sounds in Norway – the most beautiful studio in the world – with our awesome producer, Dan Austin, late last year. The environment and stormy weather when we were recording really helped set the mood for what is a quite melancholy, emo track," she says.
Also hosting jive cut 'Take Me Dancing' – which was recently afforded a fittingly physical Video – new EP 'Empire Records' follows the band's acclaimed four-track debut, with its title track 'Sponge State' clocking more than 1000 plays across international radio, including weekly spins from Annie Mac, Huw Stephens and Phil Taggart on BBC Radio 1 and a playlist add at triple j in Australia.
'Bright Lights' suggests the November EP will be a good one. The band have an intensity with this song, where emotions seemingly could boil over quite easily. The music drives the song along adding to the sense of potential melodrama, punk theatre I might suggest...

Our Florian made a sensational 8th place in his first World Cup race.
After the first run, in which Florian was placed on the 18th place, he made a furious second run. He found a perfect line and then in the lower part of the track he made a sensational time to the finish. He dashed up in the top ten, but then he was ousted from the top. At the end he had at his World Cup debut the second best time and reached the 8th place.
Only Ted Ligety succeeded in the second round a better time than Florian. Ligety succeeded with an almost perfect run the jump from the fifth to the first place. Marcel Hirscher could not prevent Ligety's third World Championship gold and had to settle for second place. Bronze medal went to Alexis Pinturault.

Watch Maria Shriver's Indirect Jab at Arnold Schwarzenegger on Oprah Winfrey Farewell
May 25 2011, Published 9:23 a.m. ET
Maria Shriver may be going through a lot in her personal life, but she still made time to fly out to Chicago last week to surprise Oprah Winfrey on a special farewell tribute to the queen of daytime TV. The episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show aired yesterday, but it was taped at the United Center in Chicago the same day news broke that Arnold Schwarzenegger fathered a love child with a former household staffer.
During the end of the episode, Maria walked out on stage and praised her friend Oprah, saying, "You've given me love, support, wisdom, and most of all... the truth."
Oprah then raised Maria's hand in a strong clasp and screamed out, "Here's to the truth!"
While Maria's comment didn't directly mention Arnold, it seemed to have a deeper meaning behind it. Maybe Oprah was a factor in the truth behind Arnold's indiscretions? Maybe she was just there at the right place and the right time to support her friend.

Watch Maria talk about the truth with Oprah at the 40 second minute mark in the clip, via TV Squad, below!
Oprah's best pal Gayle King also addressed Maria's involvement with the show on her talk-radio show.
She explained that it's unbelievable how Oprah is always there when she is needed most.

The Grey Album: Danger Mouse's black and white cookie
The hip-hop outfit Gnarls Barkley which came to fame with the phenomenally successful single 'Crazy', looks like it might disappoint with their decidedly lacklustre second single and disappear into obscurity like, i dunno, (Australian Idol!) Casey Donovan. However, DJ Danger Mouse, the paler-skinned half of Gnarls Barkley already guaranteed himself a place in the pop music history books with his 2004 release, the notorious Grey Album. The album is an ingenious mash-up of hip-hop maestro Jay-Z's 'final' recording, The Black Album and the Beatles 1968 double album The White Album.
While mash-ups had existed for decades before The Grey Album, what makes the album stand apart is the simplicity of the concept: Use the socially conscious rappings of Jay-Z and lay it over the music of the perennial poster boys of skinny white rock. The highlight on the album is track 5 where Jay-Z's '99 Problems' is mashed with the Beatles heavy metal 'Helter Skelter'. Besides the fact that this track sounds like totally awesome and stuff, track 5 is especially fascinating for its link to American race relations. Jay-Z's lyrics tell a narrative of the artist maligned as a successful rapper and being harassed by the law just because he is black. The Beatles backing track, instead of tackling social issues, originally contained fairly incongruous lyrics about a playground slide from Paul McCartney's childhood. Helter Skelter became much more controversial in the seventies when Charles Manson thought that the Beatles were sending him messages through their music. The messages specifically predicted a race war between blacks and whites. He called this war Helter Skelter. When it became apparent that the war wouldn't start, Manson decided to start it himself. For Manson, the White Album was the rock equivalent of Mein Kampf. Manson and the family then committed the murders for which he is infamous. The murderers also stole a wallet from the Polanski's house and dropped it in a public toilet in a predominantly black neighbourhood. Manson thought that this would start the race war but all this really achieved was blocked pipes. However in Manson's mind, the blacks were going to win the prophesised race war and kill off the white population during which Manson and the family would hide underground. Then, after a period of time the children of the Family would rise from their underground hidey hole, kill the black population and rule the world. (The world = America for all intents and purposes). With this in mind, it is much easier to see The Grey Album as Danger Mouse trying to musically reconcile two opposing political positions. If I may say so, Danger Mouse is the Martin Luther King of hip hop. Or the Professor Charles Xavier of hip hop. Or whatever. My point is that The Grey Album is attempting racial reconciliation in the same tradition as Jerry Seinfeld's black and white cookie.
Danger Mouse sampled from Jay-Z and the Beatles without authorisation. Normally this is done and no one really cares but the enormous buzz created by the album caused EMI to order Danger Mouse and retailers carrying the album to cease distribution. In response, the activist group Downhill Battle led a massive Internet-based protest dubbed Grey Tuesday to express the opinion that sampling is fair use and that a statutory license should be provided in the same manner as if a given song had been covered. Since The Grey Album, mash ups have become increasingly popular, though none have been as successful as Danger Mouse's moment of conceptual genius. Notable efforts include the Kleptones' mashup of the Flaming Lips' album Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots with various hip hop artists entitled Yoshimi Battles the Hip Hop Robots. The one-off mash up single has become more likely. The intrepid internet user will be able to track down Destiny's Child vs. Nirvana in 'Smells like Booty' or Christina Aguilera vs. the Strokes in 'A Stroke of Genie-us'. The lesson to be learned here is that a mash-up is only as good as the wittiness of its title. How about Guns N' Roses vs. Michael Jackson in 'Don't Stop 'til You Get Sweet Child of Mine'? Or Guy Sebastian vs. Nelly Furtado in 'Angels Brought me Promiscuous Girls'?
But back to The Grey Album. Unfortunately I will never know for sure whether Danger Mouse intended for it to be the anthem of racial tolerance that I have read it as. One cannot overlook the undeniable pleasure of skinny white kids in tight jeans and Converse sneakers trying to navigate the rhythm of Jay-Z's rhymes on the dance floor. Meanwhile, Charles Manson will be eligible for parole in 2007. If he is released, what will he think of The Grey Album? Will the murder mastermind be outraged at the recording as Beatles sacrilege? Will he be moved by Jay-Z's political lyrics resulting in a more empathetic, loving and tolerant Manson. My guess: he won't even get to hear it. Wouldn't want his parole officer to catch him downloading illegal MP3s.

Apart from the Grey album, Danger Mouse has also worked on a number of other projects....as you would expect...he produced Gorillaz's Demon Days as well as teaming up with MF Doom to create "The Mouse and the Mask" a Hip-Hop/Rap Album which is pretty experimental in some ways, but I really liked it... just some extra info for you!
Any mp3s on this site are for sampling purposes only; the label makes them available to inform your choices. If you like what you hear, head out and buy the album, pronto. If you're more important than us and want any links taken down, let us know.

Designing for Diversity: Gender, Race, and Ethnicity in the Architectural Profession
Kathryn H. Anthony
University of Illinois Press, 2000
Library of Congress NA1997.A56 2001 | Dewey Decimal 720.8
Providing hard data for trends that many perceive only vaguely and some deny altogether, Designing for Diversity reveals a profession rife with gender and racial discrimination and examines the aspects of architectural practice that hinder or support the full participation of women and persons of color.
Drawing on interviews and surveys of hundreds of architects, Kathryn H. Anthony outlines some of the forms of discrimination that recur most frequently in architecture: being offered added responsibility without a commensurate rise in position, salary, or credit; not being allowed to engage in client contact, field experience, or construction supervision; and being confined to certain kinds of positions, typically interior design for women, government work for African Americans, and computer-aided design for Asian American architects.
Anthony discusses the profession's attitude toward flexible schedules, part-time contracts, and the demands of family and identifies strategies that have helped underrepresented individuals advance in the profession, especially establishing a strong relationship with a mentor. She also observes a strong tendency for underrepresented architects to leave mainstream practice, either establishing their own firms, going into government or corporate work, or abandoning the field altogether.
Given the traditional mismatch between diverse consumers and predominantly white male producers of the built environment, plus the shifting population balance toward communities of color, Anthony contends that the architectural profession staves off true diversity at its own peril. Designing for Diversity argues convincingly that improving the climate for nontraditional architects will do much to strengthen architecture as a profession. Practicing architects, managers of firms, and educators will learn how to create conditions more welcoming to a diversity of users as well as designers of the built environment.

These oysters with Champagne gelée couldn't be more perfect for a New Year's party! This step-by-step will help you prepare this festive appetizer with ease.
Open the oysters and reserve their first water in a bowl. When choosing oysters, be aware that the smaller the number indicating their caliber, the larger the oysters will be.
Strain the water and place it into a pot. Add the gelatin and whisk to dissolve. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
Add the Champagne and season with a bit of pepper.
Carefully pour the mixture over the oysters.
Place the oysters on a serving platter covered with rock salt, to keep them from moving. Sprinkle with a few dill sprigs and lemon zest. Chill 2 hours before serving. For a different spin on plating, serve in Champagne coupes.

Such that some children are empty some is not, and some children contain more children. How do I actually parse this thing and get what I want. I am totally new with Json, and I am trying to use Gson. What I want is to get a value of a token with specific type in the nested Json. Thanks a lot for any help and directions.
I tried use com.google.gson.stream.JsonReader, but ist not working
JsonReader jsonReader = new JsonReader(new StringReader(result));
      jsonReader.beginObject();
      while(jsonReader.hasNext()){
           String field = jsonReader.nextName();
            if (field.equals("type")){
                System.out.println(jsonReader.nextString());
            } else if (field.equals("token")){
                System.out.println(jsonReader.nextString());
            } else {
         jsonReader.skipValue();
        }

        }
        jsonReader.endObject();

A: Parse your json recursively like this:
http://snipplr.com/view/71742/java-reflection-and-recursive-json-deserializer-using-gson/
private void parse(JsonObject o, PackagingResponse r){
        Iterator<Entry<String, JsonElement>> i = o.entrySet().iterator();
        while(i.hasNext()){
            Entry<String, JsonElement> e = i.next();
            JsonElement el = e.getValue();
            if(el.isJsonObject())
                parse(el.getAsJsonObject(), r);
            //......
        }
    }


The Legal Response To A Threat - Do You Understand The Law?
You might have thought that a threat is protected under the First Amendment. However, there are some threats that are not protected under free speech and can instead lead to penalties for the individual making the threat, including jail time.
In some states, a threat can be as little as a physical gesture. In other states, the threat must be communicated orally or in written form. It must be clear that the individual had the intention of intimidating you. If it is clear that the individual was joking with you, this would often not be treated as a threat. Also, if the threat is vague, such as "I'm going to get you," or if the threat is unlikely to be carried out, the threat might not be taken seriously.
When you are threatened, you should contact the police. Regardless of whether the police take the threat seriously, by reporting it, you will have a record of these threats and you will have more evidence in the event that your case is taken to court.
After reporting the threat to the police, the officer will then investigate the threat and may ask for evidence of the threat. If evidence is uncovered, the officer will refer the case to the prosecutor.
If someone threatens you, having a witness will increase your chances that you will be able to press charges. The more credible the witnesses and the more witnesses you have, the better. Sometimes, the threat will be communicated to you through text either online or through a cell phone. This situation makes it much easier to press charges because you will have the texts as evidence. At the very least, this will increase the chances of getting a more permanent restraining order.
When you do not have a witness, your word will be against the individual making the threat. But even if the individual threatening you denies having threatened you, there is the option of a restraining order. Then, if the individual threatening you violates the restraining order, he or she can be arrested.
Threatening someone can be classified under criminal harassment. This is when an individual is following you, when the individual frequently visits or calls you when you ask them not to, when an individual watches your home or when the individual threatens you or your family. The penalty can vary from state to state, but some cases lead to the plaintiff spending as long as a year in jail. To ensure that you make the strongest case possible, be sure to work with an attorney from a firm like Cross, LaCross, & Murphy PLLC.

Yet More on The Orient.
I just cannot put down Domestic economy, and cookery, for rich and poor, by A Lady (1827). Her "Oriental" recipes are Anglo-Oriental, but they are confidently so: she does not appear to be concerned about "authenticity". What amazes me most, is that way back in the first few decades of the nineteenth century she was able to include a large cohort of "foreign" recipes in an English cookbook, and get away with it. Yet a century and a half later, as a child growing up in post-war England, I had never even heard of any of these dishes. They were certainly not in my mother's Be-Ro cookbook.
Most of us (children I mean, but I suspect also many adults) were so insular in our Englishness that we really did half (or maybe seven-eighths) believe that the spaghetti eaten by Italians was actually worms. My mother certainly never cooked it. At some point – when I was almost an adult I think – I was exposed to canned spaghetti, which I hated. Luckily it did not put me off the real thing. (Isn't it a delight, discovering the real thing, after only knowing the ersatz, and not knowing it was ersatz?)
By the end of the nineteenth century, apart from the Anglo-Indian "curries", this exotic influence seems to have disappeared. Where did those recipes go? I blame Queen Victoria.
I remember a few years ago when couscous (the instant sort of course) suddenly became fashionable. Yet, here it is – made from scratch even – way back in an English cookbook of 1827.
African Cuscussou.
Mix some of the finest dry sifted flour in a mixture of yolk of egg, warm water, and butter; or water, cream, or milk, and granulate it with the points of the fingers amongst dry flour, till it takes a proper consistency. Prepare a fowl very nicely for boiling, boil the gizzard, slice it nicely, without detaching it, blanch the liver, put them into the wings, and lay the fowl into a saucepan that will just hold it, with a steamer fitted to it; season it with mace, white-pepper, and lemon zest; put in a little water or milk, and put the steamer over it, with the granulated flour or cuscussou; make it boil, and leave it in the embers to steam till it is thoroughly cooked; in the mean time prepare, according to the quantity, hard-boiled eggs, coloured with saffron; dish the fowl, pour the cuscussou over, and stick the eggs in at proper distances.
Any other meat or fish may be so cooked, or with rice, instead of the cuscussou.
In doing fish, which is excellent, it is necessary to put the cuscussou to simmer first over what the fish is to be dressed in, either seasoned stock or cream, and when ready, to put in the fish, which will cook in a short time. The hard eggs are equally good with the fish; dish in the same manner.
I also remember the first time I had couscous at breakfast – what a novelty! - at a trendy Moroccan-ish restaurant in Sydney not too many years ago, yet here it is in 1827, albeit with a small English caveat.
Sweet Cuscussou, as dressed at Morocco.
Steam it with milk and sugar, and strew it over with cinnamon, or nutmeg and sugar. Like macaroni, it is so delicate, that it is particularly adapted to sweets, white meats,
fish, cheese, gourds, and apples, it being a dish of no expense, and particularly adapted, with fruit or vegetables, for children and invalids.
The inhabitants of Morocco cover it with a great deal of spices, particularly cinnamon and sugar, and send it so dressed in presents to the women, but it is rather too high-spiced for English tastes.
When it comes to foreign food, the less authentic the better.
