Just to be clear, Charles Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol, the timeless classic of holiday redemption, and the 1983 movie A Christmas Story was about the little kid who really wanted a BB gun for Christmas.<span id="goog_448004977"></span><br />
<br />
And for the record, the source cited in footnote 18 of this article mentions neither Dickens, Oliver Twist, or A Christmas Story.

Reciting the lyrics was getting too somber - Leonard Cohen would want us
to be joyful in the memory of him and his music, so I made this
ridiculous thing - let’s hope we get through the rest of 2016 without
losing any more great talents.<br />

<br />
But last night I saw this guy stuffing his face, oblivious to me watching him:<br />
<br />

<br />
They're cute from some angles. <br />
<br />
Anyway, I set up the trap and this was the first possum that cooperated right away and climbed in the first night. This is him the next morning, sharing a Hannibal Lector moment with one of the yard cats:<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
And then I took him to the park and set him free:<br />

This book is a collection of Rolling Stone interviews and miscellaneous remembrances of John Lennon, published a little more than a year after he was killed.<br />
<a name='more'></a>The clip of Howard Cosell announcing Lennon’s death on Monday Night Football is <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n73GFvAyIjs" target="_blank">on YouTube</a>, but I think this is the only place where he describes in detail that night and his memories of getting to know the former Beatle:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Near the end of the "Monday Night Football" broadcast, my producer, Bob Goodrich, said, "Roone Arledge just called and told me that John Lennon has been shot and rushed to the hospital. We're waiting for details from ABC News." I couldn't believe it. Goodrich then told me that he was dead on arrival. I was devastated. We were in the midst of a tied football game that was about to go into overtime, and I was wrestling with the problem of breaking the news on TV, thinking that, even in this sick, sports-obsessed country, this is far more important than any goddamned football game will ever be. I went on the air and said that it was just a game, and I felt compelled to tell this story. <br />
John and I became friends in 1975, when he did a one-hour interview with me for an ABC talk show, and I found him to be candid, engaging, a man who understood himself. We kept in touch and, ironically, I even had him on "Monday Night Football" as a guest. <br />
This man meant a great deal to me. My own daughters came of age in the era of the Beatles, and I saw a lot of the magic and excitement of that time through their eyes and experiences; they truly touched us all. <br />
I'll tell you something that no one should forget about John Lennon: He was never, ever a hypocrite about anything he ever did or said or believed. With his family, his music, his ideals and his opinions, he was a man of conviction and commitment. I am proud to have known him.</blockquote>

Maybe next year I will try to calculate, at this "rate of warming", the year in which we will have 103 degrees at Jazz Fest.BHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02085989711240333826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6848000573648829649.post-34422536365674303732015-03-25T12:56:00.001-05:002015-11-10T15:19:42.479-06:00USN&WR Law School Rankings, Color-Coded Changes, 2015 to 2016 Editions<span style="color: red;"><b>March 30 Update</b></span>:
A slightly revised version is now embedded below. Apologies to one school for having their two editions' data reversed (they know who they are - thanks for the polite heads-up!), and to Wake Forest for misspelling their name all these years.<br />
<br />
(Original post:) <br />
<br />
<a href="http://brianhuddleston.blogspot.com/2014/03/law-school-rankings-color-coded-changes.html" target="_blank">Last's year's</a> color-coded table of all changes to the published metrics in the U.S. News and World Report law school rankings proved to be useful to some folks, so here is this years version:<br />
<br />
<iframe src="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9Frbz_oDQ4qWGFoYUZ2amNPd1U/preview" width="640" height="480"></iframe>
<br />
As the document itself says, contact me for any questions, or if you find any errors. (I spent about half a day chasing down one erroneous number, but didn't see anything else that stood out as looking wildly out of place.)<br />
<br />
Also as the document says, because USN&WR uses but doesn't report median LSAT and UGPA, I got those figures from the ABA's <a href="http://abarequireddisclosures.org/" target="_blank">Standard 509 Disclosures</a>. I found one discrepancy between those two sets of data, but it doesn't affect that schools' rankings: USN&WR publishes the 25th and 75th percentiles of LSAT and UGPA, though its the median figures they use in their rankings. One school provided a different 25th percentile LSAT score to US News than they did to the ABA, and one of the statistics people at US News confirm that they indeed got that number from the school - and it was the same as their median LSAT figure - statistically possible if you have a very flat distribution of numbers, but unlikely. Which indicates it wasn't their fault, except that they didn't notice that the school provided the same number for the 25th percentile and median LSAT. More on that in a future blog post, perhaps (I'm waiting to hear back from the associate dean there - but really, it did NOT affect their rankings and was a harmless mistake - it just goes to issues of quality control, verification, etc., etc.) <br />
<br />
In some e-mail exchanges last year, I learned about the usefulness of standard deviations - if I have time, I'll make those charts and also upload them here. Using Excel's conditional formatting you can visually represent the standard deviation and easily see if your school has a better (or worse) ranking<span class="fullpost"> by a particular metric, compared to your overall ranking. </span><br />
<br />
And if I figure out how to embed it like I want, I'll post my raw Excel file - its just what U.S. News publishes so they can't complain if I put up a sortable version of their numbers.

And a few have passed through mooching on the outside cats' food, but I wasn't able to trap them and they moved on.<br />
<br />
But another one showed up last week and Saturday night I trapped him - photos after the jump ...<br />
<a name='more'></a>This is what I found in my trap Sunday morning:<br />
<br />
<a href="https://imageshack.com/i/exy5DS76j" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/537/y5DS76.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
His jaw was stuck in the cage, his eyes were frozen open and he appeared motionless. I was devastated - I went in to tell my wife, choking back the tears, that I had indeed trapped the possum, but that it had died in the cage.<br />
<br />
I knew, of course, that these animals "played possum" but this guy went all-out. I was positive he was dead and was planning to dump his carcass into the garbage can for the next morning's pick-up. But as I was prying he fingers from the trap, I saw he was moving. Slowly, he came out of his catatonic state:<br />
<br />
<a href="https://imageshack.com/i/f0HE1U5ij" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/540/HE1U5i.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Reassured that he was alive, I put him in the car, and like with the others, took him to Audubon Park by the river:<br />
<br />
<a href="https://imageshack.com/i/ipyYdXz0j" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/673/yYdXz0.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
He was a little slow to get out of the cage, but soon he crawled away:<br />
<br />

Wait, why was someone protesting “the Church of Scientology for the Killing of Michael Brown in Fergeson, Mo.” ?<br />
<br />
Of course, it’s a typo, but a hell of a typo: that same article on-line now reads:<br />

"For" vs "or" - a single letter makes a big difference. The online version also has a correction statement apologizing for the error; the print version, as of this morning, did not. <br />

His novels and short stories flesh out the character of James Bond more than most of the movies do, and you can see him arc from youthful idealism to cold realism over the course of Fleming’s corpus of work. From Russia with Love was <a href="http://www.007museum.com/Kennedy_Obama.htm" target="_blank">one of JFK’s favorite books</a>, and Anthony Burgess listed Goldfinger in his 1984 compendium <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninety-nine_Novels" target="_blank">Ninety-Nine Novels: The Best in English since 1939–A Personal Choice</a>.<br />
<br />
In You Only Live Twice, the last work published before his death, James Bond catches up with Ernst Stavro Blofeld and exacts vengeance for the killing of his wife in the previous novel. Battling in hand-to-hand combat in Blofeld’s Japanese castle, Bond seems to be flailing:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
Blofeld saw his advantage and began attacking, making furious forward jabs that Bond could only parry by hitting at the flat of the sword to deflect it. But now the stave was slippery in the sweat of his hands and for the first time he felt the cold breath of defeat at his neck. Blofeld seemed to smell it, for he suddenly executed one of his fast running lunges to get under Bond’s guard. Bond guessed the distance of the wall behind him and leaped backwards against it. Even so, he felt the sword-point fan across his stomach. But hurled back by his impact with the wall, he counter-lunged, swept the sword aside with his stave, and, dropping his weapon, made a dive for Blofeld’s neck and got both hands to it. For a moment, the two sweating faces were almost up against each other. The boss of Blofeld’s sword battered into Bond’s side. Bond Hardly felt the crashing blows. He pressed with his thumbs, and pressed and pressed and heard the sword clang to the floor and felt Blofeld’s fingers and nails tearing at his face, trying to reach his eyes. Bond whispered through his gritted teeth, “Die, Blofeld! Die!” And suddenly the tongue was out and the eyes rolled upwards and the body slipped down the ground. But Bond followed it and knelt, his hands cramped round the powerful neck, seeing nothing, hearing nothing, in the terrible grip of blood lust.</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
One of my favorite passages from all the books. <br />

Like most alarmist predictions, all bets are hedged with weasel words and select omissions. Prof. Houck says “maybe” and doesn’t give a time frame. And the source he cites, like most studies, is much more measured than the commentariat represent them to be:<br />

All that report says about climate change and Louisiana is that “it is projected that by 2100, temperatures in Louisiana could increase about 3̊F (with a range of 1-5̊F) in spring and summer, slightly less in winter, and slightly more in fall.” Prof. Houck also never looks into the question of just how hot Jazz Fest is, and has been, over the years, which is why I started this annual tradition in the <a href="http://brianhuddleston.blogspot.com/2009/05/legal-scholarship-global-warming-and.html" target="_blank">first place</a>. (The hottest Jazz Fest - see my charts below - was 2002, when the average temperature was 89.7° F.)<br />

Anyway, average temperatures at Jazz Fest (see my <a href="http://brianhuddleston.blogspot.com/2009/05/legal-scholarship-global-warming-and.html" target="_blank">original post from 2009</a> for the sources of the data and my methodology) for its 45 years is 81.7° F, and this year it was 80.3°, slightly below average. Here are the updated charts: <br />
