Mr. Osomatsu(TV)
Genres: Comedy
Plot Summary: Matsuno household has six naughty and mischievous sons (who are sextuplets), led by the eldest Osomatsu. They were grade schoolers back in the Shōwa period, but despite of still living in the same old household, the street view as well as the life style of modern day society have changed drastically.
Episode 1:
Haha, now that was amusing. At first, I was expecting some old school comedy but then the parody stuff came in. I think there were Haikyuu, Yowamushi Pedal, Kuroko no Basket, and whole load of others. I was actually pleasantly surprised and amused at what I saw.
They even have an Attack on Titan parody!
Pretty hilarious episode.

Episode 1
Okay I almost turned away when I saw the kind of childish art style that usually denotes something not up for more mature audiences. But it looked like it got some responses on the preview guide, so I gave it a go. Was rather worried about how much this old timey style and such could go, but the fourth wall leaning was rather humorous. And then full blown idol mode. The idols had me a bit worried, not sure if I felt like getting into that sort of thing, but it did get me to laugh at what I thought it was doing unintentionally. Only, I don't think it was unintentionally at all, the whole segment of the school had me laughing out loud where they went past taking tropes to the max. More than taking it to 11, I would say they took it to 12.
Some references to what their old show was is lost on me, and the almost identical designs makes it pretty hard to differentiate the characters. Which kind of seems to stand out when most of the episode is filled with them having wildly different designs, and very relivant references, but that itself looks like something the show is really knowing intentionally. The acts of trying to fill in the roles of super distilled character types, and "pandering" to the audience while pretty much having that discussion with the audience, was incredibly funny. It is like those parody videos you see around of English people creating a parody of what crazy anime is like, but they took it even further.
I think a general consensus is that there is no possible way they could keep up the steam like this, and really it looks like they are changing directions next time. But if they can capture some part of this and continue it, this might be something very entertaining. This kind of reminds me of some ideas also on a return of retro, like how in the gaming scene you have the return of pixel styled games, or the interest in Cuphead.
Off the top of my head the references I noticed were I think Kuroko no Basuke (have not seen it), Haikyuu, Yowamushi Pedal, Love Live, Attack on Titan, Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, Naruto, Assassination Classroom, Pokémon, Totoro, Tekken (?), And whatever male idol anime they decided to parody. Lol, they casually do idol thing which releases energy that destroys a comet which saves the world , and then a character comments on how ridiculous that was later.

I had been looking forward to this series (mainly due to the amazing cast) but I didn't realize how much I would love it! It's been a while since an anime had me literally laughing out loud. BDs will be pre-ordered if they can keep this up.
The comet scene was so random-- LOVE IT!

Episode 2 just started airing on TV about 2 minutes ago. I'm already LOLing. So much WTF in such a small span. XDDDDD
EDIT: Okay, episode is over. Yup, I'm gonna have to do my best to watch this in real time every week. Too funny!!! The brothers are all so.... stupid. XDDDDD Juushimatsu cracks me up.
I'm starting to be able to tell the brothers apart before they speak. Feels like some kind of accomplishment, LoL.
And I think I'm going to have to hit up Amazon and do some pre-ordering after this.

Just finished episode 1. I had no intention of even trying to watch it, right now, but I looked up the trailer on Youtube, when all of a sudden it started streaming the first ep. afterwards. And I have to say, the amount of absurdity in this show is astounding! All the random tropes and cliches to try and "fit in" and "be cool/popular" are hilarious to watch .
I had never heard of the franchise and just sort of picked up on it when I was organizing the Discussion Index for all the Fall shows. But I will definitely be keeping up with this one, now. It's parody nature feels like it'll make fun of all sorts of genres.

Yeah, the first episode set a high bar, but now the show's settled down to comedic slice-of-life it's still funny.
The 'idol handshake' scene was particularly hilarious, and how a seemingly throwaway gag from the beginning paid off at the end.
This show was pretty much a "I have no idea what this is going to be like" show before the season started, but now it's a favourite.

|Ah, so the show went back to its original style. I'm okay with that since I still find it funny like with the job hunting stuff this week. Also for some reason, I find that ED song to be strangely addictive.

|The first episode was an absolute riot, I was laughing all the way, even in the "Next week's PV" segment. This second episode however, felt like very conventional slapstick comedy and although it had a few funny segments (like the horror story) I wasn't that entertained overall. And the"next week PV" segment was pretty dry too. I'm probably going to drop this unless Beautiful Bones, Perfect Insider and Dance with Devils all have terrible ep 2's

Episode 2
I sure hope there was some relevance of the parody versions of the first episode, because I am slowly building up profiles of the different characters based off of their varied designs there, for what their faces and actions are going forward.
This is nice and all, but I noticed something odd. That funky looking guy seems to disappear for a frame or so and return at about 12:38, which is kind of odd for a modern anime.
The idol bit did seem to be the best part of an episode. Got the closest to some shock factor that makes up strong comedy, and what I liked at first. Although one brother bizarrely transforming into a cat man was also good. And that one guy's speech about the factory doing something bad, and pretty much be purposely being vague and literally stating that it was being used to create unease.
I am a little worried I am missing out on a few jokes though.

|At the beginning at the fishing hold when Choromatsu and Juushimatsu did their little skit, it was a parody of the Kin no Ono, Gin no Ono (Gold Axe, Silver Axe) folk tale. I'm not too familiar with it but I've seem it parodied in a similar manner at the WORKING!! event (interestingly also with Kamiya and Ono). Looking up online, it seems it's the Honest Woodman in English?

Went to a live viewing of today's Osomatsu san event and they had an advanced screening of the third episode.
There were a lot of shorts in this episode, and my favorite were the Choromatsu-centric ones. Poor, poor Choromatsu. First he spoiler[can't get any sleep], and then he's forced to spoiler[differentiate between his brothers' chinkos]. XDDD
I think it's worth mentioning that they apparently recorded the episodes in a different order. They started with the second episode instead of the first one because they wouldn't be able to get a grasp of their characters or would develop the characters in a wrong way if they started with the first episode. ^^;;;

Episode 3:
Oh God that was weird. I mean you got stuff like horror parody like this:
And then some guy going by the name of Dekapan man being shot by a police dude several times. Weird. I mean, it has some humor to it but I didn't find it as funny as the previous two episodes.

Trump's economic policies a recipe for disaster
by Paula Dwyer
Some politically neutral economists have looked at Donald Trump's economic policies. What they found should scare the daylights out of you.
Some politically neutral economists have looked at Donald Trump's economic policies. What they found should scare the daylights out of you.
The humanities and social sciences are vital to analyzing the complexities of economics, a fact the education ministry would be well-served to remember.
Optimizing its resource allocation is far from all that China must do to boost prosperity. It is time to focus on workers and elevating the experience of their labor.
Too many countries have been short-changing infrastructure for decades, resulting in everyday inconveniences and, worse, creating roadblocks to economic growth.
Economists at the International Monetary Fund question are finding that neoliberalism isn't all it's cracked up to be.
The middle class is shrinking in both the U.S. and Germany, but the reasons for the contraction tell a lot about the different priorities of the two societies.
Income inequality is driven by both political and economic forces and it waxes and wanes over time.
Jargon is creating a growing disconnect between what economists really believe and what the public thinks they believe.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's ideology and creed is nothing other than state capitalism.
The global economy is slowing, and political problems are as much to blame as economic ones.
China's central bank last year asked the U.S. Federal Reserve to share its playbook for dealing with Wall Street's 1987 crash, emails show.
The battle over the renminbi's exchange rate reflects growing tension between the interests of the "financial engineers" (such as the managers of dollar-based hedge funds) and the "real engineers" (China's policymakers).

A first-term Democratic governor from the Pacific Northwest and a seasoned Republican from the Corn Belt have been appointed chairman and vice chairman of the Governors' Wind Energy Coalition, the organization announced yesterday. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D), elected to the statehouse in 2012 after resigning his seat in the U.S. House, will lead the group alongside Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad (R), a two-time governor who served from 1983 to 1999 and was elected again in 2010 after 12 years out of office. He was re-elected in 2014.
Wash.'s Inslee tapped to lead Governors' Wind Energy Coalition
Duke Energy proposes large scale Florida solar power plants over next 10 years
Duke Energy Florida announced plans Thursday to launch a major solar power effort that will produce electricity equivalent to that of a small power plant. The plan is a surprising move for Duke, which has held steadfast to the idea that solar won't work in Florida without storage because the Sunshine State has too many clouds. Duke's new position on solar comes as pressure mounts on Florida's investor-owned utilities from homeowners and business owners who want more solar on their rooftops.
With first big wind purchase, Southern Co. continues steady march toward renewables
The Atlanta-based utility's wholesale power unit, Southern Power, said last week it will buy a 299-megawatt wind operation in Oklahoma. Southern will not build, operate or maintain the project, nor will the company use any of the electricity generated from it. But the project is significant because it's now Southern's largest renewable energy-generating operation and the utility's first major wind purchase. Buying the Kay Wind facility now — long after other utilities have jumped into wind — also demonstrates Southern's desire not to go after something just because Wall Street likes it, analysts say.
Iowa Governor Terry Branstad: The Digest interview
Much is happening, in biotech, agriculture and in pharmaceuticals. When I first came to office, we were a big energy importing state. Now, we are #1 in ethanol, a leading biodiesel producer, and we are only behind states like Texas and California in wind. But as a percentage of our power usage we're way ahead, with almost 30% of our power from wind. And there are the new cellulosic plants like POET-DSM, and in Nevada, DuPont is going to open one before the end of the year.
Coalition Welcomes Washington Governor Jay Inslee and Iowa Governor Terry Branstad as the Coalition's New Leadership Team
"States continue to play a leading role developing the nation's renewable energy resources, and capturing the jobs and economic benefits that these growing clean energy industries provide," said Governor Inslee. "Washington state's wind energy industry has attracted more than $5.7 billion in investment since 2001 – creating thousands of jobs, supporting our rural communities and reducing emissions from our electricity sector. I look forward to working with Governor Branstad and our Coalition colleagues to promote federal and state policies that will help the wind energy industry continue to diversify our nation's energy portfolio."
Laurence Tribe Fights Climate Case Against Star Pupil From Harvard, President Obama
Laurence H. Tribe, the highly regarded liberal scholar of constitutional law, still speaks of President Obama as a proud teacher would of a star student. "He was one of the most amazing research assistants I've ever had," Mr. Tribe said in a recent interview. Mr. Obama worked for him at Harvard Law School, where Mr. Tribe has taught for four decades.
Mr. Tribe went on to serve in the Justice Department during Mr. Obama's first term and has argued in favor of the legal standing of Mr. Obama's signature health care law and executive orders on immigration.
Branstad to co-lead wind coalition
The Governors' Wind Energy Coalition on Monday named Washington Gov. Jay Inslee as the group's new chairman and Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad as the coalition's vice chairman. "States continue to play a leading role developing the nation's renewable energy resources, and capturing the jobs and economic benefits that these growing clean energy industries provide," Inslee said in a statement.
Document: A handbook for how states can incorporate renewables in compliance plans
"Renewable energy can provide large emissions reductions in a cost-effective manner when part of a balanced energy portfolio and provide significant positive economic returns to a state." So say the American Wind Energy Association and the Solar Energy Industries Association in a new "handbook" for states to use in weighing how to include renewable energy in complying with the Clean Power Plan.
Obama vows to train 75K solar workers by 2020
The White House today launched an initiative to provide military veterans with skills to join the solar industry as part of an overall goal of training 75,000 solar workers by 2020 — a 50 percent increase from a target set by the Energy Department a year ago.
Cheap oil prices chop jobs by thousands
Planned oil industry layoffs in the U.S. are approaching 100,000 in the past four months with more likely to come. Oil-producing states such as North Dakota, Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana are catching the brunt of the cutbacks just as consumers are enjoying cheaper gasoline prices brought on by the 55% drop in crude oil prices since last June. "The entire Midwest from Texas to North Dakota is really feeling the effects," says Moody's Analytics economist Aaron Smith.

Mere Mortals: Comparing Mortality Rates in football and baseball
Grantland's Bill Barnwell finds that baseball players actually have a higher mortality rate than NFL players. Which, uh, I totally didn't see coming. Then again, I'd be interested to see how the brain-related deaths and suicide rates are…

Surprising and interesting. I think it's probably pretty clear evidence that football hasn't traditionally increased the rate of early deaths.2. cardsfanboy Posted: August 16, 2012 at 08:24 PM (#4210040)
I can see a few possible reasons for football coming out better than baseball:
(1) Latin American players - baseball has them, and football doesn't. The Latin American players in baseball often retire to countries with lower quality of health care than the US (or at least with lower quality of health care for wealthy people than the US).
(2) age distribution - the NFL expanded later than MLB, and the AFL doesn't seem to have been included. Also, MLB players tend to be 23-25 when they debut, rather than 21 as NFL players are. This doesn't seem to have been considered carefully. Also, the oldest players in the study debuted in the late 50's and early 60's. This was around the time of the first MLB expansion and the formation of the AFL. The formation of the AFL would have led to an increase in the relative number of young players in football. Baseball expansion led to older players getting a shot - the existence of the minor leagues meant that some of these guys kept playing baseball much longer than anyone keeps playing football who isn't in the NFL. The long tail of the age distribution of baseball players is almost certainly a much larger fraction of the total - and if the players must have debuted by 1959, that's a huge effect. A 25 year old in 1959 would be 78 now, meaning that normal life expectancy would make him likely to be dead by now. A 21-year old in 1959 would be only 74 now.
(3) pain - the article stated that football players are much more likely to suffer from arthritis and other chronic pain conditions. These probably in many cases cause them to visit their doctors more often than retired baseball players do, and that might lead to earlier intervention on more serious conditions.
A study conducted by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) found that NFL players from the '60s, '70s, and '80s were dying far less frequently than men of similar ages and races from the general population.
They would have no reason to trump up the numbers......but the article does a great job of more or less verifying some of it. I wish the article would have at least included the average age of deaths, a grid showing the percentages of deaths within a certain time frame etc.
I mean, are football players like black males, maybe having a high percentage of young deaths(relative), but once they reach a certain point, they then have one of the longer lifespans? Heck the article never even mentions average life span.
Still a very good article, and what looks like a well put together study with the information available.
I can see a few possible reasons for football coming out better than baseball:
I can think of another possibility: rate of tobacco usage.
Apparently steroids are better for you than speed.5. bigglou115 Posted: August 16, 2012 at 09:20 PM (#4210080)
Apparently steroids are better for you than speed.
I think we might actually have a winner.
The rate of death is skewed by a sub- population of players who pitched on teams coached by Dusty Baker.7. Sunday silence Posted: August 16, 2012 at 11:49 PM (#4210158)
the study could simply be one of those stories that is out there for a reason. The first post identified possible fallacy, that being the ages when these guys started. It's tell tale that the article doesnt mention life expectancy which I am pretty sure is much better for MLB players.

Bridging cultures with art
What do Americans know about Africa? Visions on television show that it's hot and dusty, that wild animals roam free, that men and women run barefoot, carrying water on their heads or spears in their hands. Draped in brightly colored fabric, they dance and do strange things.
They are nothing like "us." Artist Nicholas Sironka disagrees, "we are all human beings."
We often fear what we do not understand and it is Sironka's goal to share, and therefore teach, his culture through art and dance.
Sironka is a Kenyan and a Maasai, people known as livestock herders residing mostly in southern Kenya and northern Tanzania. They speak Maa and their core beliefs include respect for others and the existence of God, referred to as Enkai. Like all people, they do some ritualistic things marking transitions or rites of passage, things that Sironka says are worth protecting and passing on to future generations.
Sironka believes in patience and tolerance. "We must all strive to accept one another for our diversity, and this should never be a reason for conflict," he said.
He brings diversity, via his culture, to America, illustrated in colorful fabric dyes applied to heavy cotton fabric. The painstaking process is called batik and includes the use of hot wax.
He began the art of batik after walking past a shop in Nairobi and seeing art that incorrectly portrayed his people. He wanted to change that by creating art that authentically exemplified the stories of the Maasai people. Batik is a unique medium usually associated with ethnic artists, and Sironka thought it would be a good fit. He taught himself and worked on it for years, perfecting the techniques.
His pieces show women with their children, men swapping stories, warriors, dancers, hunters, gatherers and indigenous animals in the foreground of his land where the sun always seems to burn brightly. With each piece, he writes a narrative to further aid a viewer's understanding of the stories being told in dyes.
Sironka found his way to Spokane after housing a Whitworth University student who visited his country to study. In 1999, he was invited to her wedding and he attended with his art in tow. In 2000, he received a Fulbright award and traveled back to the Spokane area with his wife. They stayed for about a year and he served as a scholar in residence, teaching batik and his culture to students at Whitworth as well as other colleges and schools in other areas.
He has since been back to America a dozen times with his art. He has also brought others to help in cultural awareness through dance. Called the Friends of Sironka Dance Troupe, they have entertained thousands of Americans. Currently he is in Spokane, sharing his art with others and auditioning for local movie projects. He is also working on a children's book. His wife joins him at events and sells her beaded jewelry.
Sironka is a storyteller in many mediums motivated to build bridges between cultures and to send money home to his people. "The time to take part in what makes the world a better place for all is now," he said.

Corgi Finds Love In A Hopeless Place
This Reddit thread recounts a magical encounter between a corgi and a bunny.
1. Ripley the corgi was sniffing around an otherwise bleak patch of grass when he saw something a little different…
2. A baby bunny!
3. The bunny, a little sad, hopped right into Ripley's arms.
4. They planned to run off together but the bunny was a little timid.
5. This was the first time she had met a corgi, so she was understandably nervous.
6. Ripley reassured her though…
7. The bunny cheered up, which obviously cheered Ripley up as well.
8. They started running around together, talking about the future.
9. …and all the adventures they would go on…
10. Now these neighborhood pals are Adventure Friends for life. Who knows where the world will take them?

Patent Trolling Carnegie Mellon Wins What Could Be Largest Patent Verdict Ever: $1.2 Billionby Mike Masnick

"Now It Is Our Turn": Freedom Party's Geert Wilders Calls for Dutch Referendum
FBI: We've Found NO EVIDENCE Orlando Shooter Was Gay
The Apple/Samsung patent battle has been getting lots of attention, but a new verdict has eclipsed the record $1.05 billion that a jury awarded in that case -- and this time its to Carnegie Mellon University, after a jury has ruled that Marvell Technology Group should have to pay $1.17 billion for infringing a single claim in each of two patents. Specifically, the company was found guilty of infringing on claim 4 of US Patent 6,201,839 which reads:
A method of determining branch metric values for branches of a trellis for a Viterbi-like detector, comprising:And claim 2 of US Patent 6,438,180 (which is a continuation patent of the '839 patent), which reads:
The method of claim 1, wherein the branch metric function is selected from a set of signal-dependent branch metric functions.And, for that, the jury says that they need to pay $1.17 billion -- which the judge now has the option of tripling, as the jury also found that the infringement was willful. Of course, at this stage, the ruling is somewhat meaningless, because it will be appealed, and we'll have to wait for that whole process to play out. However, if the verdict does stand, it will be the largest ever patent award. Other verdicts have come in higher, but have all later been reduced (sometimes significantly). Furthermore, Marvell argued during the trial that a different patent held by Seagate, US Patent 6,282,251 was not only filed and granted way before the Marvell patents, but that it covers everything in both of those patents.
Now, as is the case in so many patent fights, many people assume that the defendant "copied" the patent, or that this was about a business deal gone wrong. However, as came out during the trial, CMU has never licensed this patent to anyone. It just sat on it and sued. As Joe Mullin covers in his coverage of the rulings, this is yet another case highlighting how many universities are acting just like patent trolls these days, trying to justify their failed "tech transfer" investments into patents by playing the game exactly like patent trolls. Furthermore, CMU's lawyers completely played up the entirely bogus story line that Marvell somehow "stole" these ideas from CMU -- even prompting objections and the judge stepping in to warn the lawyers to stop with the bogus claims:
Marvell lawyers said CMU's closing statement was "rife with misrepresentations," including suggestions that Marvell "broke the chain of innovation by not paying the royalties that they now owe," and noting those payments would be used "to fund further research, to lead to further innovation." That resulted in a short conference at the side bar, in which the judge warned "you can't dig deep into all of CMU's contributions to society and mankind."This is the sad legacy of the Bayh-Dole Act, which made it much easier for universities to get patents on their research. Rather than increasing their ability to do the fundamental research that is needed to help develop new technologies, universities have, instead, been trying to hoard patents to use to sue companies who actually innovate, usually with no knowledge of the patents held by the universities. Rulings like this one will not encourage greater spread of knowledge, information and research, but will only serve to incentivize universities to continue to act more and more like trolls, in hopes of a giant payday. That such crazy lawsuits may destroy companies who are actually out there innovating is, apparently, not much of a concern.

It is a mistake to assume that content development is an assumed talent, or that it can be an afterthought in the digital marketing realm. Content strategy is more than writing for the web. There is a science and strategy behind developing quality content for web pages, blogs, advertisements and social media. And although every successful copywriter must have a foundation of basics writing skills, such as subject matter expertise, an engaging style and tone, and basic grammar usage, there is much more to being a content king.
