The AP Style Guide Finally Deported 'Illegal Immigrant'
Apr 3 2013
Photo via
Yesterday, the Associated Press declared that the phrase illegal immigrant was no longer kosher, which is a big deal, since when the AP changes its style guide, newspapers around the country go along with it. Naturally, many people (mostly conservatives) responded to the tiny tweak with howls—and tweets—of derision.
The AP's reasoning for this fairly mild mandate is that illegal shouldn't be a descriptor for a person; indeed, "No person is illegal" is a common pro-immigration slogan. "Illegal should describe only an action, such as living in or immigrating to a country illegally," Kathleen Carroll, a senior vice president and executive editor at the AP, wrote to explain the decision. So you can say, "Chen illegally overstayed his visa and lived illegally in the United States," but Chen himself is not an illegal immigrant. Nor is he an undocumented worker, or an illegal alien, terms which have already fallen out of AP favor.
Though there are meaty—if often abstract and geeky—debates to be had over language, from the legacy of the N word to rigidly enforced political correctness on college campuses. So far, this war of words has been filled with self-righteous, obnoxious carping about terminology, which is far less helpful than discussing whether it's wrong for poor people to cross an imaginary line in search of better lives. But at the same time, this conscious word-choice change points at the bigger issue of why 11 million people who live and work in the US are treated as an invading army by so many of their fellows.
People (again, mostly conservatives) who equate murder, rape, theft, or even private trespassing with illegal immigration are equating a crime against the state with a crime against individual humans. This is just one item on a laundry list of hypocrisies against conservatives' supposed small-government, pro-family, pro-individual agenda. There are few people more pro-family and more antigovernment than, say, a young man illegally crossing into the United States in order to work and send money back to his loved ones in Mexico. Nor is there anything pro-family about blaming the children illegally brought into the United States with dehumanizing terms like anchor baby and suggesting that they "go home" to countries in which they've never lived.
Perhaps technically, people who have illegally immigrated are illegal immigrants, in that they emigrated from their home countries by crossing a border in violation of a law, or stayed after their visas expired. And it could be worse, wording-wise: illegals sounds downright nasty and suggests that a single, state-prohibited action is the whole extent of one's identity, and that a person can be reduced to their relationship to the law.
While we're giving the phrase illegal immigrant the benefit of the doubt, we should note that a system in which a few people deciding that certain phrases are no longer "correct" is awfully clunky. But that's what the AP Stylebook is supposed to do. It's a style guide, and the people in charge of it occasionally make decisions that some terms—like calling people, rather than actions, "illegal"—are no longer respectable. We no longer cruelly and imprecisely refer to someone who suffers from a spinal injury as a "cripple," or talk about "the coloreds"; sometimes the language journalists use evolves abruptly based on justified thoughtfulness, not some left-Orwellian plot to muddy the clear, conservative waters of truth.
Anti-immigration conservatives aren't just losing a minor scuffle over language, they're losing the broader war. Net migration from Mexico fell to zero in 2012, and anger against people who are here without state permission—whatever you choose to call them—is fading. And the Obama administration, despite its long history of deportations, has turned toward more humanitarian policies.
As the yelling over illegal immigrant shows, there are still reserves of outrage when it comes to immigration, but most of it is as overwrought as ever, like when budget cuts led to the release of several hundred imprisoned immigrants and Republicans said that this was "endangering American lives." The Canadian-born, half-Cuban Republican Senator Ted Cruz remains opposed to amnesty for people living in this country illegally, but that's contrary to even many of his fellow high-profile Republicans, like Marco Rubio and Rand Paul.
To suggest, like Cruz did, that immigrants wait for years in a line that doesn't even exist for many of them is a joke. It's an impossible thing to ask, particularly of lower-skilled workers who most likely will never get in legally at all. And a more militarized border is not a solution if you've paid attention to the state of law enforcement in America or to disturbing phenomena like the internal immigration checkpoints 25 to 75 miles inside of the US border. If Republicans and others are finally realizing any of this, so much the better.
It's almost tempting to advocate for a proud embrace of illegal immigrant. That would send a hell of a message that breaking the law does not make you a bad person, especially when the law itself is bad and enforced by increasingly aggressive government agencies. But that's not fair to the millions of immigrants who would prefer an existence free of attacks by cops or pundits using them as political footballs. These immigrants, whose presence is an "issue" with which the country must deal, are pretty damn similar to you and to me: a few are violent, they may sometimes break the law, but most just want to live and work and be happy—whatever you call them.

My last two days in Tenerife
... and get dressed up for dinner. Avi, Angela and I decided to leave the beach and head back to La Laguna for some Barraquitos. We got to have some great conversations about the tough life of a premed and the hardships of science research, and we enjoyed giggling obnoxiously at all the dogs that walked by in the street. Along the way, I picked up a nice little gift for my girlfriend, and I realized that I had left my Sperry's at the beach...oops!
At about 8:15, we all took the ...
... the entire conversation was in English, and she asked Laura for permission to leave that day. It was her birthday, and her husband had been sleeping in the hospital since the day she arrived (about two weeks--talk about a devoted husband), so she wanted to be able to experience the island and celebrate her day with him. Laura told her that since she had progressed so well, it would be fine for her to leave, and the woman was more than grateful to her for ...
End of week 4
Yesterday was my last day in internal medicine at the hospital, and I had a really amazing last day! Paco and I continued checking in on patients as we have throughout the week, and I was excited to see how all the patients' health issues are progressing.
Today was especially exciting because I got to see a particularly interesting patient that has been here since Monday. This woman was found in her home unconscious on the floor, and when she was brought to the ...

This weekend we had the Session A people show up. They're fellows who decided to only take two weeks out of their summer for the internship, so they'll be leaving with all of us next weekend.

On Saturday we all got in our big coach bus and traveled down to the south for the beach. The beach was called ...

Pirates: Holder thinks 'mate' factor will benefit Magic
7:00am Monday 24th December 2012 in Sport By Ian Wadley
CAPTAIN Chris Holder is adamant that joining Pirates will bring out the best in exciting racer Maciej Janowski.
Holder tipped Janowski to fulfil his rich potential at Wimborne Road after the 21-year-old was named in the Dorset club's 2013 line-up.
The hot prospect achieved a 6.13 average in the Elite League last season after eventual champions Swindon loaned him to King's Lynn for 2012.
Pirates drafted in Janowski for next term after signing him on a full transfer from the Robins, with Jason Doyle moving the other way.
And world champion Holder, who has ridden alongside the star nicknamed 'Magic' for Swedish club Piraterna, thinks Poole fans are in for a treat.
Holder, 25, believes Wimborne Road will provide former world under-21 king Janowski with the ideal stage to display his qualities.
"He is really good," said Holder, speaking to the Daily Echo during his close-season break in Australia.
"He was world under-21 champion and beat Darcy (Ward) to the title in 2011, so that was not an easy task.
"He rides in the top leagues in Poland and Sweden and I think coming to Poole will be good for him.
"He rode at King's Lynn last year and he did okay. But I think coming to Poole with us guys, he will have a better time and I am sure he will come on even more. Poole is a cool place to be and having your mates around always helps you, so I think he will have a much better time at Poole."
Janowski will start as Pirates' third heat leader alongside big-scoring Turbo Twins Holder and Ward.
Holder said: "He will get on with the track no worries and he will be a tough rider to beat round there.
"I am pretty sure he will be looking forward to starting off the year really well and making a good impression.
"He rides on the limit and knows how to ride. It will be pretty exciting to see him race round there. He is a racer and doesn't give up and I am sure he will be fine."
With Holder and Janowski joined by Ward and Robert Miskowiak, Pirates chief Matt Ford again looks to have built a powerhouse top four.
Holder said: "To be able to get somebody like Janowski, who is a really good rider, means I am pretty sure we are going to be strong next year.
"Having him there as well as Robert Miskowiak gives us a good base to start from."
Meanwhile, at the other end of Pirates' team, Holder is backing Rohan Tungate to do a good job.
Discussing his fellow Australian, who is likely to line up at reserve alongside Kyle Howarth, Holder said: "He is stepping up to do some doubling up with Poole, which will be good for him.
"He will be looking forward to coming to Poole and I am sure he will definitely be one to watch."

Fresno's ponding basins are known for holding water to help recharge the underground aquifer but who knew a few basins have fish.
Friday a viewer contacted KMPH Fox 26 News to say that at least 100 catfish were dead on the banks of a ponding basin in northeast Fresno.
Within an hour after contacting the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District a team was at the ponding basin on Nees east of Cedar to investigate.
They tested the water and collected a few small fish that were still alive. Paul Allen is facilities manager for the flood control district. "We're gonna collect water samples that will be analyzed to see if it's a water quality issue as well as collect some samples of the fish to take them to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Allen says the ponding basin is one of the few in Fresno that holds water year round and that is why there is a fish population. So how do catfish end up in the basin? He said, "They actually come in thru the transplanting of mosquito fish and things like that as well as people possibly throw them in at times."
Late Friday afternoon State Fish and Wildlife said the potential cause of the fish kill was linked to Aeromonas Hydrophila. It's a bacterium that is mainly found in a warm climate in fresh water.
The flood control district says it will collect all of the dead fish and have them incinerated at the Fresno SPCA.

TEAMS: Chicago Bears
The Chicago Bears started out 7-1 and they are now 8-6. Head Coach Lovie Smith, whose seat is getting hotter each week, just doesn't know what to say. The Bears spiral could stop Sunday, when they play the Arizona Cardinals, it really is a must game now. A lot of teams who are actually winning games keep passing the Bears. The Green Bay Packers claimed the division yesterday while the Bears slipped out of the 6th spot for the final wildcard spot in the NFC. In the meantime, Smith stopped trying to make it seem it wasn't raining; instead he broke out an umbrella. "Yesterday's game was a must-game for the NFC North championship, but besides that, it wasn't a must-game with what can happen for our season," Smith said at his press conference on Monday. "This week it is a must game." "There are a lot of 8-6 teams," Smith said. "We haven't gone over every scenario, but we just know that there are a lot of us in it, and for us it's about getting to 10-6. And getting to 10-6 is about beating Arizona and getting to 9-6." "When you've lost as many as we have, I can't give you a good reason for it," Smith said. Ouch…Maybe he could lie to us? var switchTo5x=true; stLight.options({publisher:''});

Dear people,
what are all the network parts to send and to receive a message to/from my cell phone? I?m trying to develop a MMS gateway and I don?t know where is the rigth point to start. If possible, somebody gives me a direction.
I downloaded the Nokia Java MMS library, but when I try to run the "TerminatingApp.java" sample, and listen in the port 7000, it returns me the following message:

Straight from North London, here is another addition to Homeland 3, my attempt to describe my new homeland of London after 8 years spent in the British metropole.

New addition to The Nature of Survival below. Here is something from Peckham, South London. Specifically this is an abandoned area containing a factory and located amid some council estate.
And sometimes surprises happen just in your neighbourhood.
The Nature of Survival
This is to introduce a new category of photography projects entitled Days of Wonders that is dedicated to quick and dirty photography projects that usually start and end within 24 hours. Rather than projects they should be probably defined documentation attempts as they are the result of spontaneity rather than study.
The reason behind them are random encounters with something unexpected.
Here are the first two:
The existence of a micro-community of Routemaster lovers is something I never really considered, until the day I found myself surrounded by them.
During Purim, a celebration that usually takes place in March, the Jewish community enjoys the only moment during the year when colour appears in the neighbourhood.

The other day I was walking around Bermondsey (South London) when I found myself in front of the perfect addition to my Our Drinking Habits project: a miniature bottle of Absolute Vodka positioned on top of an electrical box. I hadn't got my camera with me.
The following morning in Finsbury Park (North London) I found this.

That's it. Finally I can put an end to the never ending review of images I produced during my trip to Iran last month. Here is a link to the final project, a sort of travelogue collection of pictures I titled The Islamic Republic.
The format is pretty simple a flux of images with some comments on different issues that got my attention, such as women, Death or Islamic Schools.

Back working on urban nature subjects on my series about integration and survival. I assume this interest in nature comes hand in hand with living in a big city such as London.
I became fascinated with the different ways nature has or was adapted to become part of our cityscape; here I investigate some of the the different forms it comes in: from the unwanted to the ceremonial or the ornamental.

'Yotes re-sign former Hobey Baker winner Miele
Jul 9, 2013, 4:37 PM EDT
The Phoenix Coyotes have agreed to terms with forward Andy Miele on a one-year contract extension, the club announced on Tuesday.
Miele, 25, joined the 'Yotes in 2011 after a standout collegiate career at Miami (Ohio) University, where he captured the '11 Hobey Baker in his senior season (beating out Columbus' Cam Atkinson and Los Angeles' Matt Frattin.)
Though he hasn't made much of an impact at the NHL level — he's appeared in just eight games over the course of two seasons — Miele has emerged as a talented AHL scorer.
He's led the Portland Pirates in scoring in each of the last two seasons, and tied for 20th in the league in assists (34) in 2013.

Recreation.gov strange issue reserving camping site - can I not really use a tent? (self.Yosemite)
submitted 4 months ago by rrb
I am pretty familiar with reserving campgrounds in Yosemite through recreation.gov, but I had something happen today that I haven't experienced before. I was looking around on the site, and a 3 day spot opened up in Upper Pines in July, which never happens this early, so I snagged it. However, in the dropdown where it says equipment, there was no entry for "Tent", which is my usual pick (I car camp out of a 4 door, and sleep in the tent - no RV, pickup camper, fifth wheel, etc.) For years, I have always been able to pick "Tent", and have another reservation in Upper Pines in June where I have picked that equipment. The description for the site (Upper Pines 66) says it can take a tent, so I don't know what is going on. I ended up saying I am bringing a "Pickup Camper".
My questions are: 1) Does it matter what equipment I really bring? I would assume no one cares that I am not showing up with said pickup camper. 2) Is this a glitch on Recreation.gov, or are there really sites that don't take tents in Yosemite? 3) Am I going to have a bad time trying to put a tent in to site 66?
Thanks for your help.
TL:DR: Couldn't pick "Tent" as an equipment option for my site in Yosemite, bringing a tent anyway - bad idea?

Here is a photo of the site:
As /u/drmissmodular notes, there's not really a separate space to pitch your tent in that site. However, you can pitch it in the driveway, assuming your vehicle won't take up the entire space. If you have a smaller tent, there might be enough room in the site proper, but if there isn't a 12x12 flat space they won't list it as a tent site.

That is a sweet resource, bfg_foo! We were wondering about this restriction ourselves.
[–]rrb[S] 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago (0 children)
Thanks, that's helpful. The picture you linked is a clearer one than is on the recreation.gov site as well. I have a small enough tent that I can pitch in the campsite, I think (it doubles as my backpacking tent). Worst case scenario, I can pitch in the driveway like you mentioned. 3 nights in the Valley in July is worth a little inconvenience anyway.
[–]drmissmodular 4 points5 points6 points 4 months ago (1 child)
We ran into a similar issue, and read that some sites may not have a large enough flat area to pitch a tent, thus the no tent option. I don't think there is a rule against it though.
This is from http://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/campingfaq.htm
Some campsites are listed on recreation.gov as "RV nonelectric." This means the campsite is best suited for RVs and trailers. While you aren't required to use an RV in one of these campsites, they are listed as RV only because they generally do not have adequate or level space to pitch a tent. If you arrive and find that the campsite doesn't work for you and/or your tent, we will not be able to move you to a different campsite. You should always read the site alerts and book a site that is appropriate for the equipment you will be camping in. If you have questions about a specific campsite, you can call the campground office at the phone number listed in your reservation.
[–]rrb[S] 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago (0 children)
Thanks, that's helpful. From the picture that /u/bfg_foo linked, I think I can pitch in the site regardless. Valley here I come!
[–]Cvbc623 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago (0 children)
Every site in Upper Pines has room enough to pitch multiple tents. Ignore the website, it's wrong and misleading. I have stayed in Upper Pines many many times and have camped on just about every loop.

Interesting New Twist to Vampires
This book starts with a special force of military men with enhanced abilities, from turning into a black cloud to super strength. You learn that a mummy is found in the desert and that the military has learned that it has an extra chromosome compared to humans. So, they genetically splice this to the special force team giving them new abilities.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.
Scott Boulder is the leader of this team. He is the one that opted not to have the splicing just in case. But his brother, Eric, is on the team and got altered. You start with the typical sibling conflict between the two. Then you learn that a voodoo priestess, Rebecca, has Eric under her powers. She is trying to get Eric to free the mommy so she can use him to cure her brother, whom is suffering with cancer.
Eric uses a potion that Rebecca gave him and brings the mummy back to life, which starts taking out everyone at the base. Before too many people can be killed, the mummy is drawn to Rebecca's call. Now that the base is in total disorder, they call in Leah, the little girl that first discovered the mummy and lost her father and brother in the process.
Because of her lose, Leah has been studying white and black magic trying to understand and possible heal herself from the lose. Of course, there is an attraction between Scott and Leah as the run around trying to figure out what the mummy is, a vampire, what he is after, and how to stop him.
This is definitely a new twist on the classic vampire theme that is everywhere anymore. This on was created with a combination of alchemy and the blood of Dracula. It is a pretty bloody book since Andre, the vampire, seems to have to cut the throats instead of just biting them. I will say that at first I was not that all impressed with Leah. She seemed to be another damaged heroine going to save the day. But she got better as a book progressed. Scott on the other hand was damaged goods that did nothing for the story. He was the stereotypical military guy that was muscle and no brains.
I am going to read the second book to this series and then decide if this one is a keeper. It could be that this one was the first book and getting a feeling of what it is about. But usually the second one really proves itself. I hope it gets better because there is a lot of potential.

a dark somewhat gory supernatural thriller
They found the five century old mummy buried deep in a Texas cave and they learned that the mummy¿s ancient flesh somehow bestowed super powers on humans. When the former was discovered, the Feds did not care when the latter occurred the military took over and turned the mummy into a top secret weapon.---------- However the egotistical generals and their even more pompous know it all civilian leaders ignore the science as the facts get in the way. They do not comprehend that the mummy is dormant, but alive held in stasis by an insane priest¿s incantations. They soon learn it¿s alive when a voodoo priestess purposely and Leah Maguire accidentally awakened it.-------------- In New Mexico Special Ops Captain super soldier (from the mummy¿s touch) Scott Boulder and Team Ultra are assigned to stop the amoral last vampire as now everyone knows the mummy is a blood sucking shark. Leah joins his team.--------------- THE LAST VAMPIRE is a dark somewhat gory supernatural thriller. The vampire is humanized by his life over five hundred years ago although in the present he is an amoral feeding machine who hungers for blood and is not per say an evil creature thus he is even more dangerous to humanity. The key to the tale is the romantic subplot between Scott and Leah provides a flicker of hope in a gloomy situation, but the authors cleverly keep that low keyed and muted as the war against THE LAST VAMPIRE takes precedence.--------- Harriet KlausnerWas this review helpful?

The Florida Renaissance Festival is a wholly different world??a world of jousts and costumes and turkey legs. Here be dragons, or so the armor-clad knights would have you believe. At the festival, live shows recreate the romance of the Renaissance with references to Shakespeare and swordplay on 12 different stages. Meanwhile, merchants share the secrets of their crafts, blowing unbreakable glass for spectators and selling hammered pewter goblets. Visitors, dressed in period garb or not, can wander on their own, exploring the shows and stalls, or trying their hands at games of chance while gnawing on scotch eggs and chocolate cheesecake.
The Taste of Brickell Food and Wine Festival serves culinary samples from nine popular Brickell restaurants, endless fine wine and spirits, and international rhythms. Chefs from such area eateries as Porcao Farm to Grill, El Vato, Tapas Xperience, and Batch Gastro Pub distribute freshly prepared portions of signature menu items, including morsels from 2014 Executive Chef Virgile Brandel (Atrio at the Conrad). Wine experts entice visitors to try new vintages by hosting tasting demos and dispensing samples. A portion of all event proceeds help fund the local charities.
Although he earned his fortunes as a businessman, Charles Deering's true passion was for art and culture. He filled his home with sculptures, drawings, paintings, and other works?some of which he created himself. After he passed away in 1927, The Deering Estate at Cutler has kept his spirit alive; his former home and its surrounding natural landscapes now operate as a cultural meeting place for the community?one that hosts art festivals, artist lectures, and The Living Artist Concert Series.
At the Miami Fine Chocolate & Food Show, vendors and chocolate lovers alike descend upon South Florida during a celebration of life's sweeter side. An estimated 3,000 foodies visit the evening event, witnessing and tasting the creations of some of the region's and the world's most distinguished chefs.
Themed areas make navigating the event a cinch. In designated chocolate zones, gourmet retailers, bakers, and pastry chefs win the hearts of taste buds with their sweets, which range from handmade goods to organic and small-batch treats. For a more savory experience, Restaurant Row showcases the eats of more than 30 South Florida restaurants. Pairing seminars, meanwhile, discuss what edibles go well together, and live cooking demonstrations share tricks of the trade, such as how to turn a chef's hat into an oversized drinking goblet. There will also be a number of beer, wine, and spirits vendors on hand and attendees can enjoy music performances throughout the space.
Nestled within the food show, the Cigar Cellar & Lounge sponsors the Miami Smoke Affair. Cigar connoisseurs stroll the booths of 20 brands, learning from the factory reps about how the cigars are made, what they're made from, and how they should be smoked. As they meander through the space, they sip on unlimited glasses of craft beer and nibble on bites of food. They can also dig into cigar-packed goody bags in the tented smoking lounge.
It used to be that while the northern regions of the country enjoyed hayrides through patches of plump, orange gourds, south Floridians had to be content with only their gorgeous, tropical weather, but that all changed in 2012. At the 3rd annual Coconut Grove Pumpkin Patch Festival, 5,000 pumpkins will assemble just off the coast of Biscayne Bay for Peacock Park?s pumpkin patch. But the pumpkins are just the centerpiece of a weekend-long celebration filled with classic autumn traditions. ?We deserve to have that magical fall feeling too,? says organizer Vanessa Goodis, working to bring autumnal splendor to the Miami waterfront.
Along with pumpkins harvested for their slow-flickering internal flames, the fest also entertains guests with a diverse set of attractions. Kids navigate straw-strewn tunnels in the giant hay maze and tread eerie, eary paths in the corn-stalk labyrinth. The dress-your-own scarecrow village stocks the latest field-hand fashion wear, and the orange orbs that star in the festival can be decorated with paint, glitter, glue, and googly eyes for an additional fee. The Coconut Grove Pumpkin Patch Festival lets Florida children enjoy everything fall has to offer.
"Imagine a perfect showcase of local culinary artistry paired with premium wines and spirits, minus the velvet rope." For the producers of Eats & Beats, this is their vision. For the participants of Eats & Beats, this will be their experience.
The food, drink, and music event, which is part of the Food and Wine Week, takes over four floors of The Moore Building in the heart of the Design District. Here, ticket-holders drift from floor to floor and table to table sampling signature dishes including barbecue, tacos, and sushi from local restaurants such as Pride and Joy, Red: The Steakhouse, Meat Market, City Hall: The Restaurant, and Nikki Beach. They can pair bites with libations courtesy of Jack Daniels Honey, Chambord Vodka, and Hierbas Ibicencas, and end their meals with cake, cookies, chocolate cake, and other delicacies from the dessert lounge.
As evidenced by the name of the event, the culinary experience will be enhanced with live beats curated by DJ Irie, the official DJ of the Miami Heat.

Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Across the valley, a drumbeat echoes. For ten days, the drum will call the mountain ryus to war, including the samurai kids from the Cockroach Ryu. Only Japan's feudal emperor can stop the war, so Niya and Sensei Ki-Yaga set off on a grueling journey with all the Cockroaches, whose firm friendship and unusual skills must be put to the test in order to beg the Emperor to maintain peace. Sensei Ki-Yaga is respected and wise, but unfortunately, the last time he encountered the Emperor, the Emperor threatened to cut off his head. All seems hopeless until Ki-Yaga guides the Cockroaches to meet with the Owl Ninja clan. Samurai and ninja are supposed to be enemies, but can these two groups somehow work together to save the sensei and stop the battle in time?

Same as IMAGESC but ignores NaNs.
Watch this File
>> imagescnan(Z) % Uncolored NaNs
>> imagescnan(Z,'k') % Colored
IMAGESC is a good option when the user doesn't like the interpolating behaviour of SURF or PCOLOR, because EVERY element is drawn as a single pixel CENTERED with the axis value.
The problem with this function is that it doesn't work properly with NaNs elements (although sometimes SURF neither does): they are drawn with the lower color of the current colormap.
This functions uses IMAGESC but ignores the NaNs elements.
The user can specify the NaNs color, a different color mask, or another value to be ignored.
If the user gives X and Y data with no constant increment, PATCH is used instead of IMAGESC (this is experimental!).
To freeze the colormap check COLORFREEZE and CBFREEZE here at the FileExchange.
(Bugs reports and suggestions will be very appreciated)
Image Overlay, Spyx.M, Ndnanfilter.M, and Freeze Colors / Unfreeze Colors inspired this file.
The mirrored axis problem is a general matlab bug. Try setting opengl to software.
Excellent function, I had a little function that put the NaN white but this one is much more flexible! Thanks!
why not do simply:
imagesc(img, 'AlphaData',~isnan(img))
where, e.g.,
img = membrane(1,25);
img(1:10:end) = NaN;
Hi, thanks a lot this was very helpful. However, as Camille has pointed out, the axis lebels appear mirrored at times. This doesnt happen all the time, but mostly at times when there are too many NaNs in the Matrix. Is there a workaround?
Hi again, I am having the same problem as Yu-nung Nina in 2009:
"Axis labels of both axes flip (the numbers become "mirror image" of normal axis tick labels) "
Please can you write here what solution you found to that problem?
Thanks a lot
Millones de gracias por esta herramienta super util y facil de usar!!!!
Yes Olivier, or with:
>> imagesc(U,'AlphaData',~isnan(U),'AlphaDataMapping','none')
I just wanted to be able to paint NaNs with specifyc color without modifying the axes color.
Probably I should include this "transparent" option. Thank you!
another way to obtain this is simply (fo a given array M):
You can of course get all the imagesc options since you can it directly.
Anyway, that won't make life easier. Probably I should simply do this:
pcolor((x(1:end-1)+x(2:end))/2, (y(1:end-1)+y(2:end))/2, c(2:end,2:end));
It's not perfect. The first/last column/row get dropped. But it should be sufficient for my use...
Thanks for your response, Saludos.
First, PCOLOR(X,Y,C) regards X,Y as the edges of pixels, while IMAGESC(X,Y,C) regards X,Y as the centers of pixels. The latter is what I need.
Second, what I want is not 'interp' but 'faceted', namely facet lines at the edges of pixels, which is what PCOLOR does by default:
Yes (kind of) but first, why would you like to do so if you can do it with PCOLOR? Well...
% Change line 359:
if aequal
if 0
% On empty line 398 write:
U = [U U(:,end); U(end,:) U(end,end)];
% Which is the trick. You may try other ways.
% Finally, change line 404:
% by:
% And that is it. Try imagescnan(peaks(5)) and you'll see the problem, which is that the interpolation is done on the edges and not on the middle of the faces (sort of). Maybe some day...
Saludos, Carlos Vargas
This is a great script. I've got a relevant question. Do you know if it is possible to make imagesc/imagescnan draw facet lines as shading facets applies to pcolor?
I guess not Yu-nung, the program may flip the image if your axes are decreasing, but never the ticks. Try a normal IMAGESC or send me your script. Carlos
One small mistake in my comment: on my personal laptop, the plot looks normal WITHOUT these two bizard things happening.
Hi, this script is fantastic. However, I found 2 strange things happen:
1. Axis labels of both axes flip (the numbers become "mirror image" of normal axis tick labels)
2. When I try to plot a matrix of size 420x810, the plot does not complete itself. Instead the script only plots the first few rows and stops.
These two things happen on my lab computer (with matlab R2006a, R2008a, R2008b on it; I tried all of them). But on my personal laptop, the plot looks normal with these two bizard things happening. Is there any special settings in your code that is related to the computer itself?
This problem has been bothering me for a very long time. Thanks allot!!!
Thank you very much Greg!, I already sent and updated file, which also accepts RGB images.
Cheers, Carlos
imagescnan did just what I wanted (i.e., color NaNs white). However, exploring the color option I found a bug. The doc says that "color" can be a 3 element vector or a character ('k', 'w', etc). In fact only the latter option works. The 3 element color vector results in an error.
I submited an updated file that freezes correctly the colorbar.
Carlos Vargas
Now the COLORBAR has a FROZEN colormap too.
V2.0. Totally rewritten code. Do not converts to RGB anymore. Do not freezes the colormap anymore. Do not output any colorbar. New X and Y variable steps accepted input. Now uses patches.
v2.1 Fixed BUG related with RGB image input.

Saint Augustine's University hosted the annual student leader institute Sunday, August 5 through Wednesday, August 8 in the Seby Jones Fine Arts building on the campus of SAU.
The student leaders learned various lessons, including: how to register to vote, event planning, conflict management, program planning, personal branding and professional development. The institute ended with remarks from president of the University, Dr. Dianne Boardley Suber.
"Effective leaders aren't always popular decision makers, it's not about popularity," stated Suber. She went on to say, "You set the model, you are the model."

The Dallas Cowboys fell just inches short of yet another amazing comeback, as Dez Bryant's fingers landed just out of bounds on what appeared to be the winning touchdown catch in the final seconds of the game. As it stood, the New York Giants walked away with a 29-24 win, their fourth at Cowboys Stadium since Jerry Jones' monument opened in 2009.
Tony Romo and the Cowboys got off to a horrendous start, spotting the Giants a 23-0 lead early in the second quarter thanks to three interceptions and four turnovers. The Cowboys defense had an overall incredibly effective game against the Eli Manning and the Giants offense, giving the Cowboys a long shot a comeback that began with a Felix Jones touchdown run in the second quarter.
The Cowboys would storm from behind to take a 24-23 lead in the third quarter before the offense stalled once more, and Romo's long pass to Bryant in the final seconds serving as a perfect summation of the game and season as a whole.
KD Drummond of Blogging The Boys laments what seems to be a predetermined fate for Bryant and the Cowboys.
That's the best description that I can come up with for the plight of Dez Bryant and basically the plight of the Dallas Cowboys 2012 season thus far. William Shakespeare-level star-crossed.
Dez Bryant, the butt of so many jokes, insults, derisive jeers throughout the season (and prior) ran a beautiful double move with under 20 seconds to go, leaped into the air between two defenders and hauled in the game-winning catch. Except, it wasn't. Using his hand to brace his fall, his fingers landed outside of the endzone before his rear hit the turf; incomplete. Effectively game over. Star-crossed.
The road for the Cowboys gets tougher next week, as Dallas heads to Atlanta to take on the Falcons on Sunday Night Football.

Syndicating your content to a third-party site or guest blogging for a respected publication can be a boost for your business. Here's a deeper look at the benefits, and potential drawbacks, of this strategy.
If your company is regularly publishing good content on your site, you might consider syndicating a portion of this content out to third parties, for example, to online publications in your business vertical.
Here are some recommendations for business people who want to extend their reach via guest blogging and content syndication.
Content syndication can extend your reach, add prestige, and create new possibilities to engage with qualified audiences whose members would never visit your business blog. It can also deliver a branding boost and elevate your status as a "thought leader" in your industry vertical. Just because it hypothetically conveys no direct SEO benefits doesn't mean that one should "stick a fork in it." Publishing thought-leading content has benefits that range far beyond SEO.

3 posts tagged "Dossier"
Nobody forgets their first time. But not everybody feels compelled to recall it in print. Credit where credit's due, then, to the contributors to the latest issue of Dossier, Skye Parrott and Katherine Krause's glossy biannual, which rounded up a cast of characters—from Alexis Bittar and Cynthia Rowley to Miranda July and arty nouveau-pornographer Richard Kern—to muse, in pictures and text, on their first forays in the bedroom. (One brave soul even conducted a phone interview with his deflowerer, who estimated that they'd last spoken their junior year of college.) Was anything too raw to see the light of day? "We have a policy of printing everything we like," Parrott said with a laugh at the packed launch party last night, which drew Rogan Gregory, Monique Péan, Timo Weiland, and Suno's Max Osterweis to the New Museum.
Cobbled together in updated-zine style—with help from Buero's Alex Wiederin, the magazine's recently appointed creative consultant, who co-founded Another Magazine and revamped Ten and Vogue Hommes International—it's a testament of sorts to letting it all hang out. And letting it all hang out is exactly what Andrej Pejic does in an editorial shot by Collier Schorr (who, Parrott says, is planning to use some of the images in an upcoming show). The androgynous beauty, shot in various states of undress, is in good company among the magazine's cover girls. The previous issues have featured Freja Beha Erichsen and Daria Werbowy, and while the three aren't the strangest of bedfellows, Pejic is definitely a departure of sorts. "We had Freja and Daria," Parrott said of the decision. "As far as models go, how could you go bigger than that?" As any of the issue's contributors could tell you, there's a first time for everything.

Book reviews are starting to come in for Lou Majors new book STEP3 A Supreme Being's Guide
To Existence and the reviews are good! http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I8UQSKA
From David:
It helped me breaking through the small world in my mind that I have been living through my entire life that is structured by society, media, school, and everything from the world. And best of all, this author, Lou Majors, have explained everything how the whole reality works, especially in science ways. It is what made my mind starting to 'observe' the world and analyze how thing work with my own experiment by doing the shifting between different realities.
Usually when I read about infamous "Law of Attraction" from "The Secret", Abraham Hicks, and many other similar teachings, they always give my mind difficult time to understand and grasp the concept of how it work. And yet, Lou's book (STEP 3) goes into every details with his whole own experiments and his own understanding that blow my mind apart and allowed me to see at the reality in new perspective.
Lou spend decades experimenting, studying, and have gone through lengthy journey to understand how the reality work and I have never ever seen such incredible masterpiece like this. Even famous, highly respected physicist Michio Kaku have respect for Lou majors work.
Be prepared because this book will blow your mind out of your brain with deep perspective that will allow you to question how everything work and how our consciousness plays big roles in our experiences. Do yourself a favor, please give STEP3 a chance and you will not regret it. Even if you believe it or not, at least you have information that will make you realize something in your own ways in your own times.
And as living proof that STEP3 have changed my life, I am born with Usher Syndrome that caused full deaf with low visions. I was thrown through so many challenges in my life with so much fears that was building up inside me through my life. When I met Lou Majors for the first time, he shared his story with me where he did something he thought wasn't possible until he did it. He turned his impossible into possible.
After learning what he understood about how we are living supreme being inside us where our consciousness affects our experiences and sharing it with me, I made big changes in my life. It gave me so much hopes to live for my dreams and this time, I broke out from my comfortable zone and actually worked lot on shifting my mind from old limited mindset to beyond of it, into the unknown world. Going into complete unknown was most frighten thing I have ever done and I have NO regret for it.
The result of facing into unknown and changing my mindset with STEP3, I finally am living in my dream for a start that I thought wasn't possible until I met Lou Majors. I will never forget and is forever thankful to his hard work he have shared with me that broke me from limited known world into limitless unknown world inside us.

How To Get High Without Drugs Is Now An EBook
Posted by Lou Majors in how to get high without drugs, Lou Majors on April 13, 2014
The desire to get high is a natural impulse everyone possesses
buried beneath layers of 'the acceptable ways to pleasure our self.
Are you tired of weed and papers and pipes and sneaking around and paying
your hard earned cash to get high? If you're willing to do a little work
and train yourself to reach those altered states which are already places
in your consciousness I can show you how. Think of the money you'll save
and the best part is it's not illegal.
You and I are energy that has evolved objective
awareness and intelligence.
There's lots of reasons we like to get HIGH…it is a spiritual
or energetic experience… unconsciously we are driven to reconnect with our
collective self (or the unified field), and we want to feel the energy and BLISS
of that connection.
As energy we are REALLY already connected to everyone and everything….
Well…you might rightfully ask…why doesn't it feel true?
And you'll get the answer in my course lessons… HERE
P.S. It's not just teaching you meditation.

Alex Salmond describes Westminster MPs as 'thieves'
First Minister Alex Salmond has described Westminster MPs as "thieves" and pledged to make sure that North Sea oil and gas work better for Scottish communities through independence.
Mr Salmond addressed a gathering in Portlethen, Aberdeenshire, just a few miles away from with Prime Minister David Cameron and his Cabinet where were also visiting the north east.
"I've got some form in oil and gas as I was an energy economist before I fell among thieves, by which I mean the House of Commons and not the Scottish Parliament or the Scottish Government," Mr Salmond, a former Westminster MP, said.
He said the two Cabinets' close proximity was a "wasted opportunity" to stage a public debate between the First Minister and Prime Minister.

We have a similar creature here in the Philippines. They're called White Lady (normally the "good" ones) and the Black Lady (really evil ones). Yeah, the names are pretty common but that's how they're called.
Anyway, the White Lady isn't always good. There's this famous street here called Balete Drive where numerous car accidents are caused because of a lady who crosses the street just as the car passes by and survivors all claim that they "hit" her but there always is no one else except them.

Associative Array Length Help
Hi all, this is my first post to sitepoint's forums. Too bad it has to be with a question and not with some help. I'm somewhat of a newbie to the programming scene. I've taken a few C++ and VB courses in college, but this is my first attempt at JavaScript (which doesn't seem to be too much different so far).
So... here's my problem. I just started reading Simply JavaScript, which is really well written. So far I'm in chapter two and in the arrays section where the introduction to Associative arrays is taught. The previous section teaches that a regular array has a method called length which will tell you how many elements your array contains, example below:
var array1 = ["Element0", "Element1", "Element2"]; var elementsTotalInArray = array1.length;
However, when I try to do the same thing with an Associative array I get 0 as my answer. Example code below:
var array1 = []; array1["Key1"] = "Element0"; array1["Key2"] = "Element1"; array1["Key3"] = "Element2"; var elementsTotalInArray = array1.length;

SISTERS Steffi and Jess McDonald led the Wimmera region to its sole victory at the Inter-regional Tennis Championships in Creswick at the weekend.
The two Central Park players completed a big doubles victory in the under-14 girls category, beating their opponents 9-0.
Wimmera team co-ordinator David Gove said the under-14 girls' win was one of the weekend's highlights.
Overall, the Wimmera team finished seventh out of nine teams three places below last year with the Barwon region winning 18 of 35 finals on Sunday to take out the tournament for the sixth
consecutive year.
The tournament at Mount Prospect Tennis Club featured knockout singles, doubles and mixed-doubles matches, with the 27-player Wimmera team spread across 14 sections.
Gove, who played in the over-45 men's section, said the Wimmera players were competitive across the board.
"We didn't do too badly as a team," he said. "Everyone was competitive, I think we all had a good time and the standard of tennis was really good.
"For our region, it was a pretty good effort."
Drung South's under-22 player Lachie King was one of five Wimmera players to reach the semi-finals.
Gove said it was a valuable three days for the squad's younger brigade of up-and-coming tennis stars.
"Lachie went well, he won quite a few singles matches in the under-22 section," he said.
"It was a good experience for the younger ones to see what they can try to achieve."
The other Wimmera semi-finalists were senior men's doubles pair Gove and Paul McDonald, and senior women's doubles competitors Cath McDonald and Barb Crough.
Gove said the team had a strong support base and thanked families for their commitment.
"A huge thank you to all the parents for making the effort to come across for the three days and support," he said.
Mount Prospect Tennis Club will host the inter-regional championships again next year.

L5R - 3rd vs 4th
Recently picked up a L5R book for the first time at a used book shop - Third edition for only $5. Looks awesome, got some people interested, etc. etc.
Only one of us has played L5R before, and he's played 4th edition, which he says is far supperior in many ways to 3rd. What's your opinion here? I'm not against picking up a 4th Ed book (was curious about it anyway), but has enough significantly changed to bother with so soon?

India Successfully Tests N-capable Prithvi-II Missile
By IANS - BHUBANESWAR
Published: 28th March 2014 10:27 AM
Last Updated: 28th March 2014 10:47 AM
India Friday successfully test-fired its nuclear-capable Prithvi-II surface-to-surface missile from a military base in Odisha, a senior official said.
The indigenously-developed ballistic missile with a maximum range of 350 km was fired from the Integrated Test Range at Chandipur in Balasore district, about 230 km from Bhubaneswar.
"It was a perfect launch. It met all mission objectives," test range Director M.V.K.V. Prasad told IANS.
The Strategic Forces Command (SFC) of the Indian Army conducted the test as part of a regular training exercise, he said.
Prithvi is India's first indigenously-built ballistic missile. It is one of the five missiles being developed under the country's Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme.
The battlefield missile, with flight duration of 483 seconds and a peak altitude of 43.5 km, can carry a 500-kg warhead.
The missile has features to deceive anti-ballistic missiles and uses an advanced inertial guidance system with manoeuvring capabilities and reaches its target within a few metres of accuracy.
It has a higher lethal effect compared to equivalent missiles in the world. Scientists say the accuracy has already been demonstrated in the past in the development flight trials.
