But luckily, fans of ‘Rev’ will be happy to know he’s still contributing his prosaic genius, and now he actually gets time to sleep in between issues. If my undeserved promotion wasn’t enough, we’re also happy to announce a new bi-monthly schedule for DM. Natural disasters and Acts of God not withstanding. And if that isn’t enough to rock you to the very foundations of your soul, we’re also putting the finishing touches to a newDisposable Media website. Which means you’ll be able to get a Disposable fix every day with a blog, reviews of music, games and films, and anything else that we can possibly cram on there. It’ll be live before our next issue hits the net, so keep checking www.disposablemedia.co.uk regularly. But no-one likes too much change, so we’ll continue to use our team of great writers and designers to let you know about the most interesting, obscure, and just damn great bits of popular culture that other magazines seem to miss.

  • Add Second Life to Your Training Without Having Users Log Into Second Life
    708 Add Second Life to your Training without Having Users Log into Second Life David Miller, Newmarket International www.eLearningGuild.com DevLearn08 Session 708 Reference This session follows a case study in which a text-based lesson is converted into a more immersive learning experience. Starting with a “text and image” lesson written by a subject matter expert, we will write an easy-to-follow script that will help us create inexpensive video footage using Second Life. This video footage will then be integrated with the lesson to create a richer learning experience. All materials will be available online at http://subquark.com and access to a DevLearn08 dedicated sim will be provided to all attendees. To access that land, join the ELearning Guild in Second Life group “in-world”. Principles and Tools: Two underlying principles guide the approach presented in this session: rapid development and low cost. Filming in Second Life, and within any computer-generated imagery (CGI), is known as machinima. This session introduces several tools specific to filming in Second Life in case you are interested in experimenting with them before attending the session. These tools include Filming Path, Fraps, and Sizer. The Second Life viewer is needed to access the virtual world that we will be using as a film studio for creating footage to incorporate into our eLearning. Filming Path is an “in-world” filming system that helps to create smooth camera pans and camera dolly shots. Fraps is a real-time video-capturing application for Windows. Other Mac-based programs accomplish similar results (see the Fraps section).

  • For Immediate Release, April 23Rd 2021 The
    For Immediate Release, April 23rd 2021 The Pioneers Of Outsider Art Rock TODD RUNDGREN & SPARKS Reunite For New Recording Los Angeles, CA - It’s a music hipster’s dream come true, a pairing that will make legions of fans weak at the knees. A recorded collaboration between the ever-innovating producer, songwriter and Rock Hall Of Fame nominee Todd Rundgren and one of the most eclectic, quixotic and highly celebrated musical acts in modern music, Sparks! Not since Sparks’ Rundgren-produced 1971 debut album have these two titanically talented acts worked so closely together. And now Rundgren and Sparks are proud to release “Your Fandango,” the third single from Rundgren’s forthcoming Space Force album, which also features collaborations with Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo and hip hop artist Narcy, and the timing couldn’t be better. Rundgren just recently completed a highly publicized and hugely successful virtual tour, the “Clearly Human” Tour, while Ron and Russell Mael have been generating their own buzz ahead of the Cannes premiere of the Sparks-penned movie musical ‘Annette’ (starring Adam Driver & Marion Cotillard) and the full-length, Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz, Baby Driver) directed documentary ‘The Sparks Brothers’ about their career. In fact, it was the filming of Rundgren’s interview for the latter that reunited him with Sparks and formed the idea of a collaboration. The result is a masterful piece of polyphonic pop that elegantly layers Spanish music, Neopolitan cantatas, baroque fugues and glam rock for one truly epic composition. “It’s been a truly heartwarming experience to once again be working with Todd, our first-ever producer, after a brief 50-year hiatus.” - Ron and Russell Mael “It’s been a long way since Simple Ballet, but we finally got the old dance troupe back together!” - Todd Rundgren Stream the single: HERE In addition to making the track available on all digital platforms, acclaimed Finnish media artist Liisa Vääriskoski has created a mesmerizing and eye-popping video.

  • Log-Linear Analysis of Contingency Tables: an Introduction for Historians with an Application to Thernstrom on The" Floating Proletariat"
    DIVISION OF THE HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY PASADENA, CALIFORNIA 91125 LOG-LINEAR ANALYSIS OF CONTINGENCY TABLES: AN INTRODUCTION FOR HISTORIANS WITH AN APPLICATION TO THERNSTROM ON THE "FLOATING PROLETARIAT" Morgan Kousser J. California Institute of Technology Gary W. Cox California Institute of Technology David W. Galenson University of Chicago SOCIAL SCIENCE WORKING PAPER 417 February 1982 SUMMARY For historians or other social scientists who se data is available in discrete (nominal- or ordina l-level) form, recently developed "log-linear" mu ltivariate statistical techniques offer considerable advantages over commonsensical devices and are in many respects superior to such multivariate methods as mu ltiple classification analysis, weighted least-squares, and logit. Reana lyzing Thernstrom' s Boston data on geographic mobility. we explain the ideas beh ind and the procedures of log-linear analysis explicitly, step-by-step. Intended for people who are already somewhat familiar with Rtatistics ( say, through mul tiple regression) , the paper is self-contained and as simple as we could make it. Af ter reading it carefully , one should be well prepared to perform such an analysis himself. Substantively. we sketch a simple economic model which points to age as an important determinant of the decision to move or stay, and our results cast doubt on Thernstrom's tentatively offered notion of a "floa ting proletariat."
