Let's hear it for the al-Mahdi Army!!







Let's hear it for the al-Mahdi Army!!

Let's hear it for the al-Mahdi Army!! 04/09/2004 03:55 PM

I was watching the news last night, and among the usual vagueness of "insurgents" and "attacks on coalition forces" was some footage of a march by the al-Mahdi Militia. This is apparently some group of supporters of the Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr. The footage itself was pretty impressive: thousands of men marchin in black, pressed military uniforms. They were apparently unarmed, but the march took them through streets lined with buildings on which they had placed their own snipers, and past a reviewing stand of Shi'ite clerics.

My latest article for TheFeature is about an audio algorithm that battles cell phone background noise:
My friends seem to spend an inordinate amount of time inside wind tunnels, aboard locomotives, and underwater. At least, that's what it sounds like when they call me from their cell phones. Blame it on the background noise. Unlike calling from home or a telephone booth, we have little control over the noise pollution that surrounds us out there. It's sort of like extra baggage that our voice is forced to carry when it travels across the wireless ether. Now though, researchers at the University of Toronto have developed a novel bit of technology that may someday alleviate us of the audio aggravation.

“Hey cell phone companies, can ya hear me now?” Verizon, Cingular and Sprint have entered into an agreement with 32 states to provide full disclosure of service contract rates and conditions. Also included in the agreement is a clause for more detailed coverage maps to consumers and a two-week grace period for new customers to terminate service without penalty. You know, when I first read this I actually stood up and applauded….

You know how sometimes when you're angry at someone, you write a letter that you don't send just because writing it feels good? That's what I do when I get frustrated at what I'm hearing from politicians, except it comes out not as a letter but as a speech in the bombastic rhetorical style typical of candidates. This is what I wrote last night......

Digital Rights Management (DRM)is a tool that doesn't reflect the general preference of legal music downloaders. Before you read on, hoping that I will advocate for the free distribution of music, let me warn you: I'm a strong supporter of copyright and the protection of intellectual property; I want artists and distributors to make a decent living, but I'm frustrated by the current misuse of digital technology that attempts to thwart illegal distribution. In practice, DRM makes creates compatibility problems that make it excessively difficult, and in most cases, impossible, to listen to music that has been purchased online.

Roland Piquepaille writes, "The Japanese Humanoid Robotics Project has produced the HRP-2 robot, which is known for dancing and preserving Japanese culture. But now, the HRP-2, which is about 1.6 meter high and weighs about 60 kilograms, can hear humans and understand them with its sophisticated software and hearing equipment. It uses an array of microphones consisting of eight omnidirectional microphones mounted around the robot's head. Stable speech recognition is obtained by combining information from the microphone array and a camera also mounted on its head, and by isolating and eliminating noises, even from your TV. These hearing capabilities are essential "for helping humans to communicate with robots in real environments by 2025." For more details and photos see Roland's blog. Also, see our previous story on the HRP-2 robot's dancing abilities.

And now, another entry from the "I really need a break from the Just A Geek rewrite" department . . .

Last Wednesday, I had the awesome session for Super Robot Monkey Hyper Force Terriffic Mega Madness Hella Hella Bitchin GO! That session led to an audition on Friday for the freakin' head of voice over casting at Disney Feature Animation for a new Disney project. If I book that job, I'll be one of two leads on the show!

In this entry, I talk about the difference between on-camera and voice over auditions, how I'm pretty sure I screwed myself out of a job, and announce some pretty cool writing opportunities that have come my way recently.

Can Kyrgyzstan's heretofore weak and divided opposition< /a> hold together enough to make real improvements? And who's next?

After School Specials. Is that a Trapper Keeper in your locker or are you just happy to see me? Next month, two volumes of ABC's "After School Specials" will be released on DVD (in DVD sets designed to look like Trapper Keepers). After the first two sets, at least four more will follow. TV Shows on DVD has the names of many the specials ("Schoolboy Father," "She Drinks a Little," "Did You Hear What Happened to Andrea?") to jog your memory. Of course, Jump the Shark has plenty of memories of them, too. And anyone who saw Helen Hunt host "SNL" knows that in at least one (possibly two), she jumps out the window. Those were the days.
