| property where the entire cost exceeds $10,000. A school board cannot avoid this bidding requirement by contracting for materials or services “piecemeal” for the purpose of obtaining prices under $10,000. 24 P.S. § 7-751(f). Bennett argues that the Board clearly violated these sections of the Code because the dugouts were constructed “piecemeal” at a cost in excess of $10,000. Bennett also argues that limiting his remedy to the appeal process of Section 2451 penalizes taxpayers for the mistakes of auditors. We understand Bennett’s concerns over the actions of the school officials in this case, but we cannot ignore the holdings of our courts that auditors’ reports must be challenged exclusively as provided by statute.

In this task, you are given a set of context paragraphs, some supporting facts and an answer of a question. Your task is to generate question for given answer based on set of context paragraphs, supporting facts and an answer.
| Context_1 : Moundball is a side-betting game typically played by spectators at Major League Baseball games. Often played to pass the time during slow games, Moundball has a simple ruleset and requires little to no equipment. The game is turn-based, with the goal of having the ball remain on the mound at the end of a player's half inning turn. The game was invented and patented by Frank Bonelli from the Kings Park, New York during the summer of 1977. Frank also invented the classic cocktail "The Frankie B" consisting of Stoli O, soda, splash of orange, splash of cranberry. He is now retired and he travels around the country teaching fans the basic rules of the game. Context_2 : Hex is a strategy board game for two players played on a hexagonal grid, theoretically of any size and several possible shapes, but traditionally as an 11×11 rhombus. Players alternate placing markers or stones (Go stones make ideal playing pieces) on unoccupied spaces in an attempt to link their opposite sides of the board in an unbroken chain. One player must win; there are no draws. The game has deep strategy, sharp tactics and a profound mathematical underpinning related to the Brouwer fixed-point theorem. It was invented in the 1940s independently by two mathematicians, Piet Hein and John Nash. The game was first marketed as a board game in Denmark under the name Con-tac-tix, and Parker Brothers marketed a version of it in 1952 called Hex; they are no longer in production. Hex can also be played with paper and pencil on hexagonally ruled graph paper. Context_3 : Two popular American sports were invented in New England. Basketball was invented by James Naismith in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1891. Volleyball was invented by William G. Morgan in Holyoke, Massachusetts, in 1895. Also, the first organized ice hockey game in the United States is widely believed to have been played in Concord, New Hampshire in 1883. Context_4 : The Shannon switching game is an abstract strategy game for two players, invented by American mathematician and electrical engineer Claude Shannon, the "father of information theory" some time before 1951. Two players take turns coloring the edges of an arbitrary graph. One player has the goal of connecting two distinguished vertices by a path of edges of their color. The other player aims to prevent this by using their color instead (or, equivalently, by erasing edges). The game is commonly played on a rectangular grid; this special case of the game was independently invented by American mathematician David Gale in the late 1950s and is known as Gale or Bridg-It. Context_5 : Blockhead is the name of a theoretical computer system invented as part of a thought experiment by philosopher Ned Block, which appeared in a paper titled "Psychologism and Behaviorism" (though Block does not name the computer in the paper). Context_6 : Cups was one of several games invented in 1965 by father and son Arthur Amberstone and Wald Amberstone who were both cofounders of the New York Gamers Association (N.Y.G.A.). They also invented Power, and High Deck, a card game based on medieval society. At the time both were working as basket makers as well as game designers in New York City. This game was first published in A Gamut of Games by Sid Sackson in 1969. Wald Amberstone co-founded the Tarot School in 1995 along with his wife Ruth Amberstone. The game Cups is a contemporary two-ranked single-lap member of the ancient game family of Mancala. Context_7 : Stratego is a strategy board game for two players on a board of 10×10 squares. Each player controls 40 pieces representing individual officer ranks in an army. The pieces have Napoleonic insignia. The objective of the game is to find and capture the opponent's "Flag", or to capture so many enemy pieces that the opponent cannot make any further moves. "Stratego" has simple enough rules for young children to play, but a depth of strategy that is also appealing to adults. The game is a slightly modified copy of an early 20th century French game named "L'Attaque". It has been in production in Europe since World War II and the United States since 1961. There are now 2- and 4-handed versions, versions with 10, 30 or 40 pieces per player, and boards with smaller sizes (number of spaces). There are also variant pieces and different rulesets. Context_8 : Blockhead! is a game invented in 1952 by G.W. "Jerry" D'Arcey and developed by G.W. and Alice D'Arcey in San Jose, California. Originally consisting of 20 brightly colored wooden blocks of varying shapes, the object of the game is to add blocks to a tower without having it collapse on your turn. Context_9 : Stratego: Legends is a strategy board game created and released by Avalon Hill in 1999, with rules similar to "Stratego". Set in a mythical world called "The Shattered Lands", it pits the forces of good (represented by beige-back pieces) against the forces of evil (represented by gray-back pieces). It plays similar to the original "Stratego" game, and also somewhat similar to chess. The game was discontinued by Avalon Hill in 2004. Context_10 : Luzhanqi () (lit. “Land Battle Chess”) is a two-player Chinese board game . There is also a version for four players. It bears many similarities to Dou Shou Qi, Game of the Generals and the Western board game Stratego. It is a non-perfect abstract strategy game of partial information, since each player has only limited knowledge concerning the disposition of the opposing pieces. Because of the Chinese nature of the game, terms used within the game may vary in translation. fact_1 : Stratego is a strategy board game for two players on a board of 10×10 squares. fact_2 : Blockhead! Answer: Blockhead! | Which game was invented in 1952, Stratego or Blockhead!? |

| The American disease expert, a medical epidemiologist embedded in China’s disease control agency, left her post in July, according to four sources with knowledge of the issue. The first cases of the new coronavirus may have emerged as early as November, and as cases exploded, the Trump administration in February chastised China for censoring information about the outbreak and keeping U.S. experts from entering the country to help. “It was heartbreaking to watch,” said Bao-Ping Zhu, a Chinese American who served in that role, which was funded by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, between 2007 and 2011. “If someone had been there, public health officials and governments across the world could have moved much faster.” Zhu and the other sources said the American expert, Dr. Linda Quick, was a trainer of Chinese field epidemiologists who were deployed to the epicenter of outbreaks to help track, investigate and contain diseases. As an American CDC employee, they said, Quick was in an ideal position to be the eyes and ears on the ground for the United States and other countries on the coronavirus outbreak, and might have alerted them to the growing threat weeks earlier. No other foreign disease experts were embedded to lead the program after Quick left in July, according to the sources. Zhu said an embedded expert can often get word of outbreaks early, after forming close relationships with Chinese counterparts. Zhu and the other sources said Quick could have provided real-time information to U.S. and other officials around the world during the first weeks of the outbreak, when they said the Chinese government tamped down on the release of information and provided erroneous assessments. Quick left amid a bitter U.S. trade dispute with China when she learned her federally funded post, officially known as resident adviser to the U.S. Field Epidemiology Training Program in China, would be discontinued as of September, the sources said. The U.S. CDC said it first learned of a “cluster of 27 cases of pneumonia” of unexplained origin in Wuhan, China, on Dec. 31. Since then, the outbreak of the disease known as COVID-19 has spread rapidly worldwide, killing more than 13,600 people, infecting more than 317,000. The epidemic has overwhelmed healthcare systems in some countries, including Italy, and threatens to do so in the United States and elsewhere. During a press briefing on Sunday shortly after this story was first published, President Donald Trump dismissed the Reuters report as similar to other stories regarding the CDC that he described as “100 percent wrong,” without addressing whether the role had been eliminated. U.S. CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield maintained the agency’s presence in China “is actually being augmented as we speak,” without elaborating. In a statement to Reuters before the report was published, the CDC said the elimination of the adviser position did not hinder Washington’s ability to get information and “had absolutely nothing to do with CDC not learning of cases in China earlier.” The agency said its decision not to have a resident adviser “started well before last summer and was due to China’s excellent technical capability and maturity of the program.” The CDC said it has assigned two of its Chinese employees as “mentors” to help with the training program. The agency did not respond to questions about the mentors’ specific role or expertise. The CDC would not make Quick, who still works for the agency, available for comment. Asked for comment on Chinese transparency and responsiveness to the outbreak, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs referred Reuters to remarks by spokesman Geng Shuang on Friday. Geng said the country “has adopted the strictest, most comprehensive, and most thorough prevention and control measures in an open, transparent, and responsible manner, and informed the (World Health Organization) and relevant countries and regions of the latest situation in a timely manner.” One disease expert told Reuters he was skeptical that the U.S. resident adviser would have been able to get earlier or better information to the Trump administration, given the Chinese government’s suppression of information. “In the end, based on circumstances in China, it probably wouldn’t have made a big difference,” Scott McNabb, who was a CDC epidemiologist for 20 years and is now a research professor at Emory University. “The problem was how the Chinese handled it. What should have changed was the Chinese should have acknowledged it earlier and didn’t.” Alex Azar, secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) said on Friday that his agency learned of the coronavirus in early January, based on Redfield’s conversations with “Chinese colleagues.” Redfield learned that “this looks to be a novel coronavirus” from Dr. Gao Fu, the head of the China CDC, according to an HHS administration official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “Dr. Redfield always talked to Dr. Gao,” the official said. HHS and CDC did not make Azar or Redfield available for comment. Zhu and other sources said U.S. leaders should not have been relying on the China CDC director for alerts and updates. In general, they said, officials in China downplayed the severity of the outbreak in the early weeks and did not acknowledge evidence of person-to-person transmission until Jan. 20. After the epidemic exploded and China had imposed strict quarantines, Trump administration officials complained that the Chinese had censored information about the outbreak and that the United States had been unable to get American disease experts into the country to help contain the spread. Azar told CNN on Feb. 14 that he and CDC director Redfield officially offered to send a CDC team into China on Jan. 6 but still had not received permission for them to enter the country. HHS oversees the CDC. “Dr. Redfield and I made the offer on January 6th - 36 days ago, 60,000 cases and 1,300 deaths ago,” Azar said. “We made the offer to send the CDC experts in to assist their Chinese colleagues to get to the bottom of key scientific questions like, how transmissible is this disease? What is the severity? What is the incubation period and can there be asymptomatic transmission?” Days later, the World Health Organization secured permission to send a team that included two U.S. experts. The team visited between Feb. 16th and 24th. By then, China had reported more than 75,000 cases. On Feb. 25, the first day the CDC told the American public to prepare for an outbreak at home, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo accused China of mishandling the epidemic through its “censorship” of medical professionals and media. Relations between the two countries have deteriorated since then, as Trump has labeled the coronavirus the “Chinese virus” - a description the Chinese have condemned as stigmatizing. Last week, the Chinese government announced that Americans from three U.S. news organizations, The New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal, would be expelled from China. The decision to eliminate Quick’s job came as the CDC has scaled back the number of U.S. staffers in China over the last two years, the sources told Reuters. “We had already withdrawn many technical public health experts,” the same expert said. The CDC, however, disputed that staffing was a problem or that its information had been limited by the move. “It was not the staffing shortage that limited our ability” it said. The U.S. CDC team in Beijing now includes three American citizens in permanent roles, an additional American who is temporary and around 10 Chinese nationals, the agency said. Of the Americans, one is an influenza expert with expertise in respiratory disease. COVID-19 is not influenza, though it can cause severe respiratory illness. The CDC team, aside from Quick, was housed at U.S. Embassy facilities. No American CDC staffer besides Quick was embedded with China’s disease control agency, the sources said. China in recent weeks has reported a dramatic slowdown in new cases, the result of drastic containment measures including the lockdown of Hubei province, home to 60 million people. Nevertheless, the infectious disease experts who spoke with Reuters said, the United States could use people like Quick with contacts on the ground, especially if fears of a second wave of infections materializes. Thomas R. Frieden, a former director of the CDC, said that if the U.S. resident adviser had still been in China, “it is possible that we would know more today about how this coronavirus is spreading and what works best to stop it.” Dr. George Conway, a medical epidemiologist who knows Quick and had served as resident advisor between 2012 and 2015, said funding for the position had been tenuous for years because of a perennial debate among U.S health officials over whether China should be paying for funding its own training program. Yet since the training program was launched in 2001, the sources familiar with it say, it has not only strengthened the ranks of Chinese epidemiologists in the field, but also fostered collegial relationships between public health officials in the two countries. “We go there as credentialed diplomats and return home as close colleagues and often as friends,” Conway said. In 2007, Dr. Robert Fontaine, a CDC epidemiologist and one of the longest serving U.S. officials in the adviser’s position, received China’s highest honor for outstanding contributions to public health due to his contribution as a foreigner in helping to detect and investigate clusters of pneumonia of unknown cause. But since last year, Frieden and others said, growing tensions between the Trump administration and China’s leadership have apparently damaged the collaboration. “The message from the administration was, ‘Don’t work with China, they’re our rival,’” Frieden said. Trump’s re-election campaign sent out a statement Sunday evening dismissing controversy about the CDC’S cut as a matter of politics. “Democrats are eager to politicize the coronavirus crisis and weaponize it against President Trump, the statement said. “In so doing, they’re siding with the Chinese and providing cover for Beijing’s cover-up.” | Exclusive: U.S. axed CDC expert job in China months before virus outbreak. |

Eating and sharing meals together among the community's members, especially relatives and neighbours, are a common practice in both daily life and social gathering events. Fish are a significant protein source and are associated with variety of traditional recipes. Cyprinid fish are one of the most preferred fish by Isaan villagers for daily consumption because they are accessible and affordable. Consumption of these fish probably causes the persistence of high endemicity of human liver fluke infection, particularly with Opisthorchis viverrini, in northeast Thailand. Because the consumption of raw cyprinid fish is a well-documented risk factor for liver fluke infection, sharing of risky raw fish dishes may influence disease transmission through a community. Social network analysis was used to investigate fish and fish-based meal sharing among household members in Isaan villages in liver fluke endemic areas. The findings from three studies confirmed the persistence of traditional Isaan raw fish consumption and food-sharing practice. Social connections via food sharing among villagers played an important role in liver fluke infection and transmission dynamics as a risk factor. Thus these sociocultural factors should be taken into account in designing strategies for control of opisthorchiasis and other food-borne illnesses at the community level.

| Thursday marks the return of Mike Judge 's "Beavis and Butt-Head" to MTV, after 14 years — enough time for a baby to have grown up to be Beavis or Butt-Head.The cartoon, which began in part as an ironic, idiotic but not inaccurate commentary on the network's original bread and butter — the music video — will now include among its targets movies, viral videos and the kind of shows that have come to represent MTV in the duo's absence, series like "Jersey Shore" and "16 and Pregnant." ("This would be a better show if they showed them actually getting pregnant.") What's odd is how nearly they resemble some of their new targets — "This guy looks like he might be stupider than us" — and how with the passing years they've come to sound less like snarky kids and more like grumbling old men: the Statler and Waldorf of their generation.Nevertheless, this is a kind of American classic that goes right against the grain of what cartoons are supposed to be. Handmade and homely, slow and awkward, it evokes the awesome inertia of the bored teenager for whom life seems not endlessly promising, but merely endless. It is dumb stuff — in the opening episode, the pair, having seen a bit of "Twilight," look for something undead to bite them, in order to "score chicks" — yet grown men of my acquaintance once would imitate their idiotic snickering and repeat, in something like their voices, any statement that could be remotely misconstrued as sexual.Thursday is also the premiere of another MTV cartoon, "Good Vibes," set in a Southern California beach town. Josh Gad ("The Book of Mormon") plays short, round Mondo, whose hot-stuff mother Babs ( Debi Mazar ) has brought him west from New Jersey to start a new life in fictional Playa del Toro, where he is befriended by bushy-blond-haired surfer dude Woodie ( Adam Brody ). (The cast also includes Danny McBride as an obese female sex-ed teacher and Tony Hale as an aggressive nerd.) The visual style is "Family Guy" by way of "The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers," with the younger female characters designed as if by a 12-year-old boy.Created by David Gordon Green ( "Pineapple Express" ), it is a kind of cartoon version of Nickelodeon 's surf-culture kid-com "Bucket and Skinner's Epic Adventures," with masturbation and marijuana jokes laid in. Though "Beavis" and "Good Vibes" both flog what might be called "adult" subject matter, they are, of course, aimed straight at 13-year-old boys, whose noggins pulse with the stuff. (This is decidedly a young male fantasy.) None of the characters — including the usual smart hot girl, mean hot girl and mean hot guy — range beyond well-established types, and the show would have to stand on a chair to aim any lower. But it is mostly sweet-tempered and oddly moral, and, as I write these words, I do not hate it.More "sophisticated" is "Allen Gregory," a new series beginning Sunday on Fox , which trusts in cartoons. The story of a super-precocious, over-entitled 7-year-old cast into an ordinary elementary school, it was co-created by and stars Jonah Hill , the movie actor. Given the current good health of his film career, Hill is no one you should expect to see any time soon on live-action TV; but a cartoon doesn't require him to show his face, or even shave, and, of course, this is his baby.Allen has two dads. Pampering alpha dad Richard ( French Stewart ) is rich and controlling and too awful to care about, though apparently less rich than just before the series begins: He is after life partner Jeremy (Nat Faxon), too nice to be here, to get a job. This is why Allen has to go to school — he was home-schooled before that by Jeremy, whom he hates, as he does his adopted, ignored Cambodian sister ( Joy Osmanski ). And a public school, to boot, the better to contrast his pompous pretentiousness with the more ordinary concerns of his second-grade classmates.He is also, in some explicitly sexual way, drawn to his large and ancient principal, voiced by Renée Taylor with an appropriate tone of disgust. I know the scenes that Allen Gregory imagines between them are supposed to be hilarious, but they are nothing I need to see. These are the sort of jokes that make you wonder not so much whether you are too old for them but whether you have simply lived too long.Still, Hill is consistently funny doing what sounds to me like an impression of a Hollywood executive: He calls his teacher "sweetheart" ( Leslie Mann , in what I take as an homage to "Freaks and Geeks" ), talks over anyone he considers his inferior and views his own struggles with an exasperating world as somehow brave and moving and poetic. And once in a while, he sounds like a little boy. This much works, but whether it can sustain a series is a fair question. ||||| We find Beavis and Butt-Head where we left them — resiliently stuck to that dirty couch, watching their flickering TV, laughing with that combination of giggle and heavy pant. The products of heavy metal, collapsed family structures and inertia, they’re mischievous and susceptible, and not gumptious enough for real misbehavior.
Instead, they tune in. More than almost any other TV show, the original “Beavis and Butt-Head” was a celebration of the immersive, narcotizing effect of television, of the thrills of passive consumption. MTV was Beavis and Butt-Head’s protein.
Would they still be watching? Sometime around the mid-2000s they would have noticed a difference in MTV, a move away from videos. They probably would have switched the channel to G4 or Spike.
Seeking out music videos these days generally requires going online, an active act. So, since the boys haven’t changed the channel, they’re watching “Jersey Shore” and “16 and Pregnant ” on the revival of their animated series, now called “Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-Head,” which has its debut on MTV on Thursday night.
The original “Beavis and Butt-Head,” which ran on MTV from 1993 to 1997, marked the beginning of that network’s meta years, during which it realized that music videos were not enough and began programming around and on top of them. The characters’ return might indicate that MTV is smelling the beginning of the end of its current era of reality-shock programming. Just as the original show made it safe to trash-talk MTV’s musical heroes, the new version allows the channel’s new stars to be mocked, not just revered. (Mockery is just part of consumption now, anyhow, not a later stage of engagement.)
Visually the show hasn’t been updated at all, which is as it should be: teenage lethargy is perennial. But by the old measurements, the premiere episode is tepid and distant. Believing that Beavis and Butt-Head were coming from the same stink as the things they were criticizing was a key to the original’s appeal; they were outsiders in outsider culture, but still of the same generation. But the new jokes mostly feel slow and hands-off, less disdainful than uninterested.
The first segment is by John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky, former executive producers of “King of the Hill,” and the second is by D J Javerbaum, formerly a writer for “The Daily Show With Jon Stewart.” The first aims higher, with the duo mistaking a homeless man for a werewolf, and asking him to bite them so they too can be werewolves, and score dates. The second sketch is conceptually thinner but funnier, with Butt-Head mercilessly teasing Beavis for crying.
Butt-Head is still animated by double-entendre (“Beavis was touched”) and brute sex humor. Watching the “Jersey Shore” team make a map of its intrahouse spit swapping, Butt-Head says, “If they, like, did this chart long enough, they could find out where herpes began,” with his signature tone of wonder that he appears to have borrowed from nature documentaries.
But it’s Beavis who sees things most clearly. Watching a deadbeat, video-game-playing dad-to-be on “16 and Pregnant, ” Beavis deadpans, “I think, once he does get a job, I think everything’s gonna be smooth sailing.”
Beavis’s rage is really this show’s raison d’être, though. It is hair-triggered, manic and suggests his need to de-anesthetize from his surroundings. (Cornholio, Beavis’s caffeinated alter ego, hasn’t arrived yet, though reportedly he’s coming; presumably the rise of energy drinks since the show’s first run won’t go unnoted.) The end of the second sketch takes place 80 years in the future, with Butt-Head still teasing, and Beavis still flying off the handle. They have nowhere to go, and even if they did, they couldn’t.

Beavis and Butt-Head Year: 2011 Director: Mike Judge Network: MTV
I always loved Beavis and Butt-Head, but it was mostly for the wrong reasons. The ’90s show was groundbreaking and culturally significant for its interstitial scenes, in which Mike Judge’s two cartoon idiots would watch music videos and throw brilliantly inane insults at them. This made their show a precursor of the way we would increasingly experience media in the years to follow: talking back to it, often accompanied by meta-critiques (like Mystery Science Theater 3000’s or The Soup’s), and later. As Steven Johnson wrote in the 1999 book Interface Culture, these shows were “metaforms, filters; you still take in the video itself, but the experience is necessarily transformed (if not enhanced) by the filter that conveys it to you.”
Those disposible critiques were hilarious for the way the characters would prick the preening and self-seriousness of video culture. (And yes, I wrote that so I could make the obligatory, “Huh-huh, I said ‘prick'” joke. Glad we’ve got that out of the way!) But what I remember most are the cartoons themselves, which had their notoriety (“Frog Baseball,” e.g., or the controversy over the boys’ playing with fire) but which often take a back seat to the video segments.
But the cartoons, less topical and of-the-moment, were where Judge was playing his longer game with American culture, making points that he would refine (with more heart) in King of the Hill and (with greater savagery) in Idiocracy. The two kids, stunted, self-centered and amoral, were a satirical exaggeration of American instant-gratification taken to its logical extreme. Whether they were annoying their old-school neighbor (Hank Hill precursor Tom Anderson), disappointing their hippie teacher or generally abusing each other, they represented–on pop culture’s most prominent outlet–a brutally funny takedown of pop culture and the dumb, lazy egocentrism it catered to. The sugar rush of empty-calorie consumer society, it told us, makes Cornholios of us all.
LIST: All-TIME 100 TV Shows: Beavis and Butt-Head
All of which is to say that there’s been a lot of talk, as Beavis and Butt-Head prepares to return to TV, about whether it can really be the same in the YouTube and Twitter era (when everyone is a couch critic) and in the latter-MTV era (when the channel has long moved from videos to reality shows that almost pre-satirize themselves). Maybe it can’t, but I don’t really care. As long as the central stories are viciously funny enough–which, at least in the one new episode I’ve seen, they are–the boys of Highland have a place on my TV.
The videos first, though. With MTV, the boys have moved on to reality shows. Are there a thousand other places, on TV and blogs and in your Facebook newsfeed and IM windows, to find people making fun of reality shows? Sure: an entire TV show, H8R, was briefly dedicated to the people who did that.
But it’s still a pleasure to find someone really funny doing it, and as the pair turn on an episode of Teen Mom to watch one of the show’s unemployed babydaddies playing a video game and philosophizing, Butt-Head has not missed a beat: “This guy looks like he might be stupider than us.” When Snooki and Jenni on Jersey Shore make a chalkboard chain of the housemates and their hookups: “If they get this chart long enough, they can find out where herpes began.”
And the animated vignettes show that, even if the world a generation later is choked with new kinds of stupidity, Beavis and Butt-Head are endlessly adaptable to them. In one, the Twilight phenomenon convinces them that chicks find monsters irresistible, so they pay a homeless man to bite them, thinking that he’s a werewolf. In the second, Butt-Head torments Beavis when he tears up while watching an episode of The Bachelor. They’re updated pop culture references, but the targets are really more timeless: the endlessly malleable stupidity of horny teenage boys, the idea that genuine feeling is uncool. (In the latter bit, the way Butt-Head chuckles, “You’re moved” like it’s the most demeaning insult possible is classic.)
Is it all as innovative as it was in the 1990s? No; it can’t be. But though I was skeptical about it at first, having seen the new Beavis I think of it less as a revival of a franchise for a new era, and more like the latter years of a long-running cartoon satire, like The Simpsons or South Park–one that just happened to be temporarily interrupted for 14 years. It’s not essential anymore, but it’s still welcome. Sure, I’d rather see Judge develop a new project, but I would hope that the Beavis restoration would not keep him from doing so.
I’ll be curious to see whether the show draws as young and audience as MTV’s other shows or if it’s destined to mainly appeal to snarky, elderly Gen Xers like myself. (Not a foregone conclusion; MTV, at least, has said it was moved to bring the show back partly by its continuing popularity with its current viewers, who’ve watched the reruns online.) But the comedy of stupidity knows no generation. And with a wealth of targets to catch up on, I’m glad the show is getting another chance to erect a monument to the American id.
In its pants. Heh-heh-heh. (Oh, you knew there was one more coming.) ||||| ‘Beavis and Butt-head’’ was just right for early 1990s MTV. It was a youth-market take on “Mystery Science Theater 3000,’’ with a pair of dimwits in AC/DC and Metallica T-shirts watching and making fun of MTV videos. At the time, kids were becoming “media-savvy,’’ as the pop psychologists were phrasing it, which was another way of noting that kids were growing cynical and ironic; “Beavis and Butt-head’’ perfectly captured that punchy tone. It invited viewers to rip on MTV - while simultaneously bringing ratings to MTV. Nice trick, that.
Now, some 20 years later, “Beavis and Butt-head’’ is returning to MTV, this time as “Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-head.’’ And it’s not a bad idea, to put the two aggressively stupid dudes back to work, this time judging reality TV shows as well as videos. Once again, MTV is owning its own ridiculousness; the network has thrived almost solely on reality soaps in the past decade, and now it’s dissecting their absurdities. We can have our “Jersey Shore’’ and mock it too, the MTV programmers seem to be saying. Let’s throw idiocy at idiocy and make a positive.
Does it work? The new series, which premieres tonight at 10, works just OK. The problem is, there actually isn’t much of a need for the two dopes and their anti-wisdom anymore. Reality TV, not including all the contests shows, is a largely self-ironic genre. Everything from “The Real Housewives’’ franchise to “The Bachelor’’ has parody built into its core being, so that all the characters and situations are heightened to the point of spoofery. Most viewers are laughing at reality cast members like Snooki and the Situation - heh, heh - while simultaneously following them.
Plus, we still have “South Park,’’ which was partly inspired by “Beavis and Butt-head’’ and yet puts it to shame in the snark department. “South Park’’ skewers pop culture almost to the point where no further skewering is possible. And then there are the countless websites on the order of Television Without Pity, which have become masters of the TV takedown.
So the new “Beavis and Butt-head’’ isn’t as essential as it once was. It doesn’t have any subversive bite. It’s still got a little bit of joy left in it, but only as a nostalgic experience. The pair are exactly as they were in the 1990s, only now they’re suffering through the likes of “Twilight’’ and “16 and Pregnant.’’ They watch “The Bachelor’’ in the premiere, and Butt-head accuses Beavis of crying, an accusation that lasts, as we see in a flash forward, for decades. They watch an MTV documentary about an addiction to porn, muttering, “porn, porn, porn’’ throughout. It’s just like old times.
“Good Vibes,’’ which premieres at 10:30, is a fitting timeslot neighbor to “Beavis and Butt-head.’’ The two shows are similar in a few ways. “Good Vibes’’ is a crude, animated sitcom that makes fun of, well, everything, including surf culture, nerds, jocks, breasts, fat men, frizzy hair, homeless people, stoners, hookers, pop culture, and video games. It revolves around two sex-obsessed dumdums, Mondo (Josh Gad) and Woodie (Adam Brody). And it’s completely stupid, although somehow, on top of it all, it manages to pull out a laugh or two if you’re willing to channel your inner juvenile.
The setup has Mondo, a chubby kid whose mother, Babs (the unmistakable Debi Mazar), is a hooker looking for legitimate work. They’ve just moved from New Jersey to a honky-tonk California surfing town, where Mondo feels completely out of place because, as he says, “even the bums are ripped.’’ At one point, a school mean girl calls him “White Precious’’ because of his weight. Mondo and the geeky Woodie quickly become best buds, and spend their time dodging bullies and spying on hot chicks at the beach.
There’s nothing new here at all, just a pile of raunchy gags with a few hits and a lot of misses. The voice talent is good, though, including Danny McBride as a repulsive teacher in a wheelchair. And the beach town atmosphere is fresh. It’s “Beach Blanket Bingo’’ gone terribly wrong.

© Copyright 2011 Globe Newspaper Company. ||||| | Beavis and Butt-head are back—but two decades later, MTV’s pair of dimwits is no longer critiquing just music videos. They have now added reality shows, movies, and viral videos to their repertoire. But do we still need them? Matthew Gilbert, Boston Globe: Back in the early 1990s, Beavis and Butt-head was perfect for the time. Kids were starting to become “media-savvy”—AKA, “growing cynical and ironic”—and the show “perfectly captured that punchy tone.” But nowadays, reality shows will be the first to mock their own ridiculousness, and most audience members are already laughing at them. “Plus, we still have South Park” for our necessary dose of snark. The new Beavis and Butt-head, therefore, “works just OK” and “isn’t as essential as it once was." Robert Lloyd, Los Angeles Times: Today’s Beavis and Butt-head are still making the same types of jokes (16 and Pregnant “would be a better show if they showed them actually getting pregnant.”), but they now “sound less like snarky kids and more like grumbling old men.” James Poniewozik, Time: Who cares whether Beavis and Butt-head can be as relevant as they once were? “As long as the central stories are viciously funny enough—which, at least in the one new episode I’ve seen, they are—the boys of Highland have a place on my TV.” Yes, you can find lots of other people making fun of reality shows—“but it’s still a pleasure to find someone really funny doing it.” Jon Caramanica, New York Times: “We find Beavis and Butt-Head where we left them — resiliently stuck to that dirty couch, watching their flickering TV, laughing with that combination of giggle and heavy pant.” As they have not changed, neither has the show been updated visually. That’s “as it should be: Teenage lethargy is perennial.” Even so, the first episode is “tepid and distant,” the jokes “slow and hands-off, less disdainful than uninterested.” The show premieres tonight at 10pm.

| La déception de la décénie . Quand je repense à la première trilogie de Star Wars, ce qui me vient immédiatement à l'esprit ce sont les personnages plein d'humour, les batailles spectaculaires et l'histoire simple mais efficace : un vrai spectacle. Malheureusement, bien des années ont passé, et aujourd'hui ce nouveau film me laisse un goût amer. C'est comme si Lucas avait en fait souhaité se concentrer non pas sur la création d'un bon film, mais sur la création d'un univers qui donne la plus grande impression possible de richesse narrative et visuelle. Seulement Lucas n'est pas Tolkien, et ce dont il accouche ressemble à un gros objet clinquant, tape-à-lœil, dans lequel évoluent des personnages creux et quelques créatures destinés à remplir les rayons des magasins. Adieu l'humour et l'âme de la première trilogie. Les extras sur DVD m'ont laissé la même amertume : que c'est beau, mais que c'est inutile ! Les séquences inédites vous feront louer le monteur, tant elles sont inintéressantes, et le "making of" conforte le spectateur dans son sentiment que seul les effets importaient à Lucas. Une touche d'humour involontaire : la comparaison par le réalisateur entre Star Wars et la poésie, ou Star Wars et "Guerre et Paix". Un DVD à réserver aux fans de Lucas mais pas aux fans de bon cinéma. | NEG |

| Passage: Feynman has been called the "Great Explainer". He gained a reputation for taking great care when giving explanations to his students and for making it a moral duty to make the topic accessible. His guiding principle was that, if a topic could not be explained in a freshman lecture, it was not yet fully understood. Feynman gained great pleasure from coming up with such a "freshman-level" explanation, for example, of the connection between spin and statistics. What he said was that groups of particles with spin ½ "repel", whereas groups with integer spin "clump". This was a brilliantly simplified way of demonstrating how Fermi–Dirac statistics and Bose–Einstein statistics evolved as a consequence of studying how fermions and bosons behave under a rotation of 360°. This was also a question he pondered in his more advanced lectures, and to which he demonstrated the solution in the 1986 Dirac memorial lecture. In the same lecture, he further explained that antiparticles must exist, for if particles had only positive energies, they would not be restricted to a so-called "light cone". | Which nickname did Feynman lose?,What did Feynman suggest can't exist in a lecture?,What unknown teacher was considered the "Great Explainer"?,What did Feynman think were static and could never spin? |

| The paper attempts to combine Variational Auto-Encoders with the Stick-Breaking process. The motivation is to tackle the component collapsing and have a representation with stochastic dimensionality. To demonstrate the merit of their approach, the authors test this model on MNIST and SVHN in an unsupervised and semi-supervised fashion. After reading the paper in more detail, I find that the claim that the dimensionality of the latent variable is stochastic does not seem quite correct: all latent variables are "used" (which actually enable backpropagation) but the latent variables are parametrized differently (into $\pi$) and the decoding process is altered as to give the impression of sparsity. The way all these latent variables are used does not involve any marginalization but is very similar to the common soft-gating mechanism already used in LSTM or attentional model. With respect to the Figure 5b showing the decoder input weights: component collapsing probably does not have the same effect as Gaussian prior. $\pi$ is positive therefore having a very small average value might mean that its value is close to zero most of the time, not requiring any update on the weight. For the standard Gaussian prior, component collapsing means having a very noisy input with no signal involved, which forces the decoder to shut down this channel, i.e. have small incoming weights from this collapsed variable. Adding a histogram of the latent variables in addition to that might help decide if the associated weights are relatively large because they are actually used or if it's because the inputs are zero anyway. The semi-supervised results are better than a weaker version of the model used in (Kingma et al., 2014), but as to have a fairer comparison, the results should be compared with the M1+M2 model in that paper, even if that requires also using two VAEs. | en |

| Review: The past creeps up on a rehab-addict when he reconnects with his ill brother and a former girlfriend after what he hopes was his last stint in detox. "Life's dramas", presented here in the most simplistic way imaginable (not even the writing has any bite or wit). The cast is made up of attractive looking actors smiling glumly at one another, and the music and photography are lugubrious (a couple of the visual effects are laughable, indie-cliché touches that reek of a puny budget). Although written and directed by a man, this was produced by a woman, and I'm not sure but I think this may be a distinct reason why this picture about two men, estranged brothers growing closer, never quite gels, never feels natural or seems lived in. It's an attempt to get inside a male relationship, but the careful, sterile presentation is a cheat. No one's heart is in this, living, breathing, or bleeding this material. "The Perfect Son" is quickly diffused by too many cooks in the kitchen. Question: is it a positive review? | no |
Given a sequence of actions to navigate an agent in its environment, provide the correct command in a limited form of natural language that matches the sequence of actions when executed. Commands are lowercase and encapsulate the logic of the sequence of actions. Actions are individual steps that serve as the building blocks for a command. There are only six actions: 'I_LOOK', 'I_WALK', 'I_RUN', 'I_JUMP', 'I_TURN_LEFT', and 'I_TURN_RIGHT'. These actions respectively align with the commands 'look', 'walk', 'run', 'jump', 'turn left', and 'turn right'. For commands, 'left' and 'right' are used to denote the direction of an action. opposite turns the agent backward in the specified direction. The word 'around' makes the agent execute an action while turning around in the specified direction. The word 'and' means to execute the next scope of the command following the previous scope of the command. The word 'after' signifies to execute the previous scope of the command following the next scope of the command. The words 'twice' and 'thrice' trigger repetition of a command that they scope over two times or three times, respectively. Actions and commands do not have quotations in the input and output.
| I_TURN_RIGHT I_WALK I_TURN_RIGHT I_WALK I_TURN_RIGHT I_TURN_RIGHT I_JUMP | walk right twice and jump opposite right,jump opposite right after walk right twice |
