Fourth District Judge Deborah Bail reinstated the death penalty for Michael Jauhola Tuesday, saying there was no reason to keep him off Idaho's Death Row since he voluntarily waived his right to a re-sentencing hearing in front of a jury.
Bail originally sentenced Jauhola to death in 2001 for beating fellow inmate John Alfred Williams to death with a baseball bat in 1998.
That death sentence was vacated by Bail two years later following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that juries -- not judges -- must decide whether to impose the death penalty.
The Idaho Legislature -- like those in several other states whose death penalty statutes were overturned by the decision -- adopted a new scheme in 2003 requiring juries, not judges, to impose the death penalty.
Since his death sentence was still on the state appeal level at the time of the Supreme Court decision, Jauhola had the right to ask for a jury hearing.
That jury would have had to determine if there were aggravating factors -- like a propensity to commit murder or a reckless disregard for human life -- needed to sentence Jauhola to death.
But Jauhola waived his right to that hearing and signed a waiver acknowledging that he knew Bail had already found a "statutory aggravating circumstance beyond a reasonable doubt" that would qualify him for the death penalty. So Bail ruled this week that he should go back on Idaho's Death Row.
"Now that Mr. Jauhola has waived his right to be sentenced by a jury, the reason for vacating the original death sentence is not present," Bail said in her order. "Therefore, the (death sentence is) reinstated."
Jauhola's attorneys have argued that some information from the pre-sentencing reports Bail used to arrive at her decision is inadmissable hearsay. They also question Bail's finding that Jauhola met the aggravating circumstance that he had a propensity to commit murder.
Bail ruled Tuesday that those arguments do not address the issue of "whether or not the court may reinstate its former findings, but instead substantively attack the content of those findings," and "were not relevant at this procedural point."
Bail said Jauhola is free to raise those concerns in a motion for sentence reduction under Idaho Criminal Rule 35. Jauhola has until June 1 to file such a motion, and if he does, Bail said she would schedule an evidentiary hearing.
According to court documents, the now 40-year-old Jauhola hit fellow inmate Williams in the head with a baseball bat several times during an exercise break on April 16, 1998. Williams, 38, died shortly after the attack.
Jauhola was in the Idaho Maximum Security Institution for a voluntary manslaughter conviction for the October 1993 stabbing death of 17-year-old Geraldo Malacara.

Judge reinstates death penalty for Idaho inmate
Associated Press - May 13, 2010 8:14 AM ET
BOISE, Idaho (AP) - A judge has reinstated the death penalty for an Idaho inmate convicted of beating another prisoner to death with a baseball bat in 1998.
Fourth District Judge Deborah Bail originally sentenced Michael Jauhola to death in 2001.
Bail then voided the sentence two years later, after a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in a separate case found that juries - not judges - must determine if defendants are eligible for the death penalty.
That ruling prompted Bail to order a new sentencing for Jauhola, who has since waived his right to a hearing before a jury. Jauhola signed a waiver acknowledging that Bail had already determined he qualified for the death penalty.
Bail ruled earlier this week that Jauhola return to death row, the Idaho Statesman reports.

Wally Hall is the managing sports editor for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. A graduate of the University of Arkansas-Little Rock after an honorable discharge from the U.S. Air Force, he is a past president and member of the Football Writers Association of America, member of the U.S. Basketball Writers Association, past president and current executive committee and board member of the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame, and voter for the Heisman Trophy.
Like It Is:
New network will benefit SEC, ESPN most
Here is a look inside Arkansas' SEC Network control room. (photo courtesy Mike Waddell)
We are privileged to be born in America, but we are blessed to live in the South where football is Saturday's church.
So perhaps today's launching of the SEC Network is the greatest thing to happen to television since 1954, when the Rose Bowl Parade was broadcast in color.
Just how wonderful it is for fans of SEC schools -- and is it worth it -- remains to be seen, but it is obviously set up to be a major financial boost for the SEC and its 14 members.
When the first program airs at 5 p.m. today, it will be available in more than 90 million homes and 75 million have already subscribed. That's 3 million more subscribers than the NFL Network, 15 million more than the Big Ten and 49 million more than the Pacific-12, which is still squabbling with Direct TV.
It has been reported that ESPN will charge $1.40 for subscribers within its footprint. The footprint is basically all of the South plus Texas, Missouri and Kansas because that is where the schools and the majority of their fans are. Apparently fans who live outside the footprint will pay about 26 cents a month.
Keep in mind that is paid every month, so estimates are the SEC's revenue are about to jump $500 million to $600 million every year, or approximately $35 million more for every member school every year.
Real money. The green kind with lots of zeroes.
Yet, nothing is guaranteed.
Patrick Seitz of Investor's Business Daily has written a story that most Americans are about tapped out on what they will pay for entertainment. It notes that in the past five years families are paying 12 to 20 percent more for TV while income has fallen 6 percent when adjusted for inflation.
Home movie purchases and movie rentals are down, and so is movie theater attendance. Football ticket sales were down at many schools last season, and not even Alabama at Arkansas has sold out yet.
Paying $1.40 doesn't sound like much, but who thinks it will stay that low? ESPN was dirt cheap as a start-up but today, according to Forbes magazine, it garners around $5 every month from every subscriber.
ESPN is a beautiful business model for ESPN. It gets paid to broadcast and gets to sell advertising.
Since it began broadcasting in 1980, it has grown into the most powerful sports entity in the world. More powerful than the NFL, the NBA, Major League Baseball, the NCAA and all its members combined.
ESPN is not only paying the bills, but huge salaries and bonuses.
The SEC Network isn't just about football. It is about all SEC sports, but football will tote the note just as it does on every major college campus.
Also keep in mind that ESPN stands for Entertainment and Sports Programming Network, which is about entertaining not news gathering. What you see and hear won't be all pablum, but there will more than enough for everyone.
It is a business where reporting is too often opinionated. Where the bottom line is always the bottom line.
ESPN may have too much power, but it does a great job of entertaining sports fans and they already have 34 SEC football games scheduled.
Other programming will include four hours of the same Paul Finebaum show that has been on radio for years, and he'll be taking calls from some of sports' greatest fanatics.
It also will include SEC Nation, which is essentially a copy of ESPN's College Game Day, SEC Now (more talk), SEC Storied (similar to ESPN's 30 for 30 series, and an early view of a couple of them was impressive) and Film Room, which is a different coach doing an X and O session for fans.
That's a lot of SEC sports and a lot of hours to fill since it will air 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for $1.40 a month. For now.

Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1997
This is a list of Billboard magazine's Top Hot 100 songs of 1997.[1]
Elton John was 50 years old when his double-sided single topped the chart, which was "Something About The Way You Look Tonight" and the 1997 remake of "Candle In The Wind", although it only debuted in October 1997 and was also #1 for two weeks in the 1998 calendar year. This could have been the first time since 1965 that a single tops the year-end chart without reaching #1 in any weeks in the whole history.
Although it wasn't dethroned until November 1996 and spent 60 total weeks on the chart, "Macarena" by Los Del Rio, which topped the 1996 year-end chart, is only ranked #82.
Amber's "This Is Your Night" despite peaking in the 1997 calendar year, and being in the 1996 installment, is not displayed in the 1997 installment.

Wuinfo: Have hundreds of items in one multivalued field?
Sounds like a bad design? When the first time I found out this, I thought that should have avoided it in design. But, that is not what we are talking today. After we I figured out a way to fix the performance, it seems quite a powerful way to deal with the business logic.
How to accommodate the request that a node holds thousands of multiple value items in one field? When it comes to editor experience, we have something to share. Multiple values field for a field-collection-item is a usual setup for a content type. When there are only couple dozens of values, everything is good. The default field-collection embed widget with a multivalue field is working well.
As the number of items goes up, the editing page become heavier. In our case, we have a field collection contains five subfields. There is one entity reference field pointing to nodes, two text fields, one taxonomy entity reference field and a number field. Some nodes have over 300 such field collection items. The editing pages for those nodes are like taking forever to load. Updating the node getting more and more difficult.
for such a node, the edit form has thousands of form elements. It is like loading an adult elephant with a small pickup truck. Anything can slow down the page. That can be from web server performance to the network bandwidth and our local computer browser capability. So, we need to find a valid way to handle it. We want the multiple value field to be truly unlimited. Make it capable of holding thousands of field-collection-items value in a single node.
After doing some research, we come with a pretty good solution. Here is what we had done to deal with it.
We use Embeded Views Field to build a block for the field collection items. We paginate it and break down 300 items into 12 pages. Then, we insert the views block into the node editing page. Not loading all the elements into the node editing form, it speeds up the page loading immediately. Display the field collection items in views block is not enough, we need to edit them. I had tried to use the VBO to handle editing and deleting. It did not work. Then we built some custom ajax functions for editing and deleting. We use the ctools modal window as front end interface to edit, delete and add new items. That works well. With modal window and Ajax, we can keep the main node edit page untouched. There is no need to refresh the page every time they change the field-collection-items. Thanks to the pagination of the views block. We now can add as many items as we want into the field collection multivalue field. We added views sorting function to the embedded views field.
Sounds pretty robust, but wait, there is something missing. We quickly running into problem soon we implement it. What about the form to create a new node? On the new node page, the embedded views field block is not working. A new node does not have its node id. We fixed it by using the default widget. It is just for the new node page. We used the following function to switch the field widget.function MODULENAME_field_widget_properties_alter(&$widget, $context) {
if ($context['entity_type'] == 'node') {
if (!isset($context['entity']->nid)) {
if ($context['field']['field_name'] == 'FIELD_MACHINE_NAME') {
if ($widget['type'] == 'field_collection_hidden') {
$widget['type'] = 'field_collection_embed';

Drupal core announcements: Drupal core security release window on Wednesday, July 20, 2016
The monthly security release window for Drupal 8 and 7 core will take place on Wednesday, July 20.
This does not mean that a Drupal core security release will necessarily take place on that date for any of the Drupal 8 or 7 branches, only that you should watch for one (and be ready to update your Drupal sites in the event that the Drupal security team decides to make a release).
There will be no bug fix or feature release on this date. The next window for a Drupal core patch (bug fix) release for all branches is Wednesday, August 03. The next scheduled minor (feature) release for Drupal 8 will be on Wednesday, October 5.
Drupal 6 is end-of-life and will not receive further security releases.
For more information on Drupal core release windows, see the documentation on release timing and security releases, and the discussion that led to this policy being implemented
Drupal @ Penn State: Special Menu Items and Breadcrumbs
If you are using the Special Menu Items module to add things like HRs and unlinked titles to your menus, you might run into the Breadcrumb issue.
If you have a non-linked menu item it may show up on your breadcrumbs as a plain text title which you may not want to see. There are a number of issues for this in the modules queue, but as far as I can tell it has not been fixed.
My quick fix is a function in template.php

Drupal.org blog: What's new on Drupal.org? - June 2016
Read our Roadmap to understand how this work falls into priorities set by the Drupal Association with direction and collaboration from the Board and community.
In June the Drupal Association had our annual staff retreat, where the remote team members joined the Portland, OR team for a three day retreat. This year's retreat was particularly important as we found our feet as a smaller, leaner team, and focused on our organizational roadmap for the next twelve months.
For the engineering team in particular, our focus will be on maintaining the critical systems that make project successful: issue queues, updates, testing, packaging, etc, while at the same time finding new ways to support and enable Drupal's evolution.
These were some heady days, but even as we worked through the best ways to continue serving the Drupal community on a strategic level in June, we also found the time to keep making Drupal.org a better home.Drupal.org updates Documentation Migration
A long running initiative this year has been the creation of a new Documentation system for Drupal.org, a topic we've touched on in many prior updates as it has begun to come online. We are very happy to say that we are moving to the next stage of the documentation project: moving from development to migration.
In June tvn recruited several volunteers to join our documentation migration team, and to become some of the first maintainers for the new Documentation Guides. General documentation, such as Understanding Drupal, Structure Guide, etc. will be migrated first. Documentation for contributed projects will follow in the coming weeks.
Maintainers of contributed projects, who currently have their documentation on Drupal.org, will be added as maintainers to respective documentation guides and are encouraged to clean/tidy up their documentation post-migration.
if you are interested in helping, or sign up as a maintainer for some of the new documentation guides.Composer Repositories are now in Beta
Drupal.org's Composer repositories allow developers building sites with Drupal to use the Composer command line tool for dependency management. In June we collected feedback from a variety of users, as well as the community volunteers who assisted us with the Composer Community Initiative.
We spent the month iterating quickly on the alpha implementation: fixing bugs and rebuilding the meta data to ensure that users get consistent and expected results. Because of those fixes, and after gathering yet more feedback from the community, we were able to move the Drupal.org Composer repositories to beta.
We encourage you to begin transitioning your composer based workflows to use Drupal.org's composer facade. Package names are stable, and downtimes will be planned and announced. For more information on how to use Drupal.org's Composer repositories, read our documentation.Better issue credit tools for maintainers
The Drupal.org issue credit system is a unique innovation of our community. By allowing users to attribute their contributions as volunteers, to their employers, or to client customers, we have an insight into the contribution ecosystem for Drupal that is unparalleled among open source projects. We've also already seen the impact of incentivizing organizations to give back to Drupal, by using the credit system as the basis for organization rankings in the marketplace.
In June we added two new tools for maintainers to improve how they grant credit to users. Firstly, maintainers can now deselect the automatic credit attribution for users who have submitted patches. This change was important to prevent gaming the credit system. Secondly, we've given the maintainers the ability to credit users who have not commented in the issue. Whether that help was provided in IRC, Slack, on a video call, or in a sprint room, maintainers can now ensure that those users who helped resolve an issue receive credit for their contributions. Any user who is credited this way can edit their credit attribution if they want to extend that attribution to a supporting organization or customer.Friendly path aliases for release nodes
We also made a relatively small change that will have a big impact. Path auto is now enabled for project releases, so you for any project a specific release can now be found at:
And you can also find a list of all the releases for a project at:
Take, for example, the Token module:
You can find the complete index of releases for this project at: https://www.drupal.org/project/token/releases and individual releases now have friendly urls, like this one: https://www.drupal.org/project/token/releases/8.x-1.0-alpha2Spam Fighting Improvements
Fighting spam on Drupal.org is a never ending battle, but in June we deployed a refinement to our spam fighting tools that helps us to find patterns in registration behavior and prevent spam registrations before they've even started. After flipping on our latest iteration of this spam fighting tool we saw an immediate and dramatic drop-off in suspicious account registrations. With the additional data we've been able to collect we already see ways to improve this even further, so we hope to continue make Drupal.org a cleaner home for the community.Highlighting Supporting Technologies
Drupal is many things to many different people, but one central function of Drupal is to be the hub of interconnected and complementary technologies. Several of the companies that build these technologies have chosen to support the Drupal project by becoming supporters. To better highlight some of these supporting technologies that work well with Drupal, we've added a supporting technologies listing to the marketplace.Sustaining support and maintenance DrupalCon
DrupalCon Dublin is coming up soon, from September 26 - 30th. This year we smashed all our previous records for session submissions, and the caliber of speakers and topics is higher than ever before.
In June we opened registration for the event. We encourage you to buy your tickets now! Early bird registration will end soon.Infrastructure
Infrastructure is the bedrock of Drupal.org - and we're continuing to tune the infrastructure for efficiency, economy, and performance. Alongside the launch of registration for DrupalCon Dublin, we implemented APDQC to improve the performance of the Events website under heavy load.
We've also been upgrading our configuration management from Puppet 3 to Puppet 4, and continuing to standardize our configuration across all of our environments to make our infrastructure durable, consistent, and portable.
As always, we'd like to say thanks to all the volunteers who work with us, and to the Drupal Association Supporters, who made it possible for us to work on these projects.
If you would like to support our work as an individual or an organization, consider becoming a member of the Drupal Association.

Zivtech: Foster a Culture of Training
What You Gain Early on we adopted this idea that we were going to train up our people, and that we weren't going to just expect them to come in all ready to go. We were going to bring people in at all different levels including having no experience at all. Over the years we found that we gained a lot from doing that, so we have much better employee retention than most of our peers. A lot of our people have been here almost since our start.
Our team is very close, and communicates very well. Think of a team as neurons in your brain. The more connections that they have, the better they communicate, the stronger the team.
They are harmonious because they've all been trained in the same way. We don't have a lot of strong conflicts about how we do things. All of our projects are done in the same way.
We're not undoing old opinions, and we also have a lot of generosity towards each other. People give you retention, loyalty, and generosity because you gave them something. You took a chance on them when they didn't have a lot of opportunities, and you invested a lot in them. We also have a lot of developers with other strengths. They are more well-rounded. Our staff includes people with many outside skills, including musicians, artists, writers, and polyglots. Their diverse cognitive frameworks help solve problems creatively.
In a culture of training, everyone values the idea of working together to teach each other. That extends not just to our own team, but to how we interact with our clients. Ultimately I find that clients often value being taught more than they value the end product.
We have this whole team of great communicators who value teaching. Whether they're the project manager, the developer, or the QA person, they're always finding that chance to teach the client something.

Lars Wirzenius: Two-factor auth for local logins in Debian using U2F keys
Warning: This blog post includes instructions for a procedure that can lead you to lock yourself out of your computer. Even if everything goes well, you'll be hunted by dragons. Keep backups, have a rescue system on a USB stick, and wear flameproof clothing. Also, have fun, and tell your loved ones you love them.
I've recently gotten two U2F keys. U2F is a open standard for authentication using hardware tokens. It's probably mostly meant for website logins, but I wanted to have it for local logins on my laptop running Debian. (I also offer a line of stylish aluminium foil hats.)
Having two-factor authentication (2FA) for local logins improves security if you need to log in (or unlock a screen lock) in a public or potentially hostile place, such as a cafe, a train, or a meeting room at a client. If they have video cameras, they can film you typing your password, and get the password that way.
If you set up 2FA using a hardware token, your enemies will also need to lure you into a cave, where a dragon will use a precision flame to incinerate you in a way that leaves the U2F key intact, after which your enemies steal the key, log into your laptop and leak your cat GIF collection.
Looking up information for how to set this up, I found a blog post by Sean Brewer, for Ubuntu 14.04. That got me started. Here's what I understand:
PAM is the technology in Debian for handling authentication for logins and similar things. It has a plugin architecture.
Yubico (maker of Yubikeys) have written a PAM plugin for U2F. It is packaged in Debian as libpam-u2f. The package includes documentation in /usr/share/doc/libpam-u2f/README.gz.
By configuring PAM to use libpam-u2f, you can require both password and the hardware token for logging into your machine.
Here are the detailed steps for Debian stretch, with minute differences from those for Ubuntu 14.04. If you follow these, and lock yourself out of your system, it wasn't my fault, you can't blame me, and look, squirrels! Also not my fault if you don't wear sufficient protection against dragons.
- Install pamu2fcfg and libpam-u2f.
- As your normal user, mkdir ~/.config/Yubico. The list of allowed U2F keys will be put there.
- Insert your U2F key and run pamu2fcfg -u$USER > ~/.config/Yubico/u2f_keys, and press the button on your U2F key when the key is blinking.
- Edit /etc/pam.d/common-auth and append the line auth required pam_u2f.so cue.
- Reboot (or at least log out and back in again).
- Log in, type in your password, and when prompted and the U2F key is blinking, press its button to complete the login.
pamu2fcfg reads the hardware token and writes out its identifying data in a form that the PAM module understands; see the pam-u2f documentation for details. The data can be stored in the user's home directory (my preference) or in /etc/u2f_mappings.
Once this is set up, anything that uses PAM for local authentication (console login, GUI login, sudo, desktop screen lock) will need to use the U2F key as well. ssh logins won't.
Next, add a second key to your u2f_keys. This is important, because if you lose your first key, or it's damaged, you'll otherwise have no way to log in.
- Insert your second U2F key and run pamu2fcfg -n > second, and press the second key's button when prompted.
- Edit ~/.config/Yubico/u2f_keys and append the output of second to the line with your username.
- Verify that you can log in using your second key as well as the first key. Note that you should have only one of the keys plugged in at the same time when logging in: the PAM module wants the first key it finds so you can't test both keys plugged in at once.
This is not too difficult, but rather fiddly, and it'd be nice if someone wrote at least a way to manage the list of U2F keys in a nicer way.
Miloš Bovan: Post comments via email
The overall test coverage of Mailhandler module has been improved in the week 7 of Google Summer of Code. The plan for the week 8 was to implement feature for posting comments by sending an email.
Similarly to MailhandlerNode (handler for nodes), we had to create a new config entity: inmail.handler.mailhandler_comment and a handler plugin class. Since comments will have limited support, during the last weekly meeting with my mentors (Miro and Primoz), we decided not to add more analyzers as proposed first, but rather to move comment specific business logic to MailhandlerComment Inmail handler plugin.
In order to simplify the logic in the comment handler, EntityTypeAnalyzer was updated to support partial entity type matching. The entity type was extracted from the subject independently of the second part, which can be bundle or entity ID in case of comments.
The current steps in the comment handler are:
Assert we are dealing with comments (the identified entity type is comment)
Parse the referenced entity ID from the mail subject: [comment][#entity_id]
Validate (authenticate and authorize) a user
Create a comment entity if all previous conditions are met
The pull request on Github was already created and it will request additional updates after it received some nice suggestions from my mentor.
The Inmail issue Lack of standard result in collaboration of analyzers progressed well during the last week. After several feedbacks and broad discussion, it is currently in "Needs review" state. In my opinion, it is quite close to be fixed and we will be able to implement the standard analyzer result object into Mailhandler module very soon.
Also, last week I made a few UX improvements in the module.
Inmail demo now supports sample mail messages from mailhandler_d8_demo module. As a related issue, PGP-signed sample mails were added to the demo.
The Mailhandler Demo is our focus for the following week. It will be extended with a sample Mailhandler user with already preconfigured Inmail settings, PGP keys and relevant form and display updates. The goal is to provide an easy start for new Mailhandler users. The progress made on the module so far, will be presented as a short (video) demo. Stay tuned!

Clint Adams: Election time
Andrew Cater: Who wrote Hello world
A long time back, I got asked whether programming was an art or a science: it's both, but most of all it's only good insofar as it's shared and built on. I used hello world as an example: you can write hello world. You decide to add different text - a greeting (Hej! / ni hao / Bonjour tout le monde! )for friends.
You discover at / cron / anacron - now you can schedule reminders "It's midnight - do you know where your code is?" "Go to bed, you have school tomorrow"
You can discover how to code for a graphical environment: how to build a test framework around it to check that it _only_ prints hello world and doesn't corrupt other memory ... the uses are endless if it sparks creativity.
If you feel like it, you can share your version - and learn from others. Write it in different languages - there's the analogous 99 bottles of beer site showing how to count and use different languages at www.99-bottles-of-beer.net
Not everyone will get it: not everyone will see it but everyone needs the opportunity
Everyone needs the chance to share and make use of the commons, needs to be able to feel part of this
Needs to be included: needs to feel that this is part of common heritage. If you work for an employer: get them to contribute code / money / resources - even if it's as a charitable donation or to offset against taxes
If you work for a government: get them to use Free/Libre/Open Source products
If you work for a hosting company / ISP - get them to donate bandwidth for schools/coding clubs.
Give your time, effort, expertise to help: you gained from others, help others gain
If you work for an IT manufacturer - get them to think of FLOSS as the norm, not the exception

Sune Vuorela: Leaky lambdas and self referencing shared pointers
After a bit of a debugging session, I ended up looking at some code in a large projectm_foo = std::make_shared<SomeQObject>(); /* plenty of lines and function boundaries left out */ (void)connect(m_foo.get(), &SomeQObject::someSignal, [m_foo]() { /* */ });
The connection gets removed when the pointer inside m_foo gets de-allocated by the shared_ptr.
But the connection target is a lambda that has captured a copy of the shared_ptr…
There is at least a couple of solutions.
- Keep the connection object (QMetaObject::Connection) around and call disconnect in your destructor. That way the connection gets removed and the lamda object should get removed
- Capture the shared pointer by (const) reference. Capture the shared pointer as a weak pointer. Or as a raw pointer. All of this is safe because whenever the shared pointer gets a refcount of zero, the connection gets taken down with the object.
I guess the lesson learnt is be careful when capturing shared pointers.

The role of prosodic boundaries in word discovery: Evidence from a computational model140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954652View Description Hide Description
This study aims to quantify the role of prosodic boundaries in early language acquisition using a computational modeling approach. A spoken term discovery system that models early word learning was used with and without a prosodic component on speech corpora of English, Spanish, and Japanese. The results showed that prosodic information induces a consistent improvement both in the alignment of the terms to actual word boundaries and in the phonemic homogeneity of the discovered clusters of terms. This benefit was found also when automatically discovered prosodic boundaries were used, boundaries which did not perfectly match the linguistically defined ones.
Acoustic performance of boundaries having constant phase gradient140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954754View Description Hide Description
In this paper, inhomogeneous boundaries having constant phase gradient are investigated. In principle, such a theoretically proposed boundary is dispersionless. In practice, however, when the boundary is realized by a subwavelength-structured tubes array, the impedance discretization brings about sub-reflections at high frequencies. Moreover, determined by the longest duct in the array, a realized boundary is impractically thick. Therefore, a finite-thickness boundary is further proposed by truncating and periodizing the tubes in the array. In this paper, the theoretical analysis agrees well with the numerical simulations. By appropriately choosing its phase gradient and target frequency, the finite-thickness boundaries have potential applications in noise control.
Sound source localization identification accuracy: Level and duration dependencies140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954870View Description Hide Description
Sound source localization accuracy for noises was measured for sources in the front azimuthal open field mainly as a function of overall noise level and duration. An identification procedure was used in which listeners identify which loudspeakers presented a sound. Noises were filtered and differed in bandwidth and center frequency. Sound source localization accuracy depended on the bandwidth of the stimuli, and for the narrow bandwidths, accuracy depended on the filter's center frequency. Sound source localization accuracy did not depend on overall level or duration.
Approximate formulas and physical interpretations for horizontal acoustic modes in a shelf-slope front model140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954881View Description Hide Description
The structure and behavior of horizontal acoustic modes for a three-dimensional idealized model of a shelf-slope front are examined analytically. The Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin–Jeffreys (WKBJ) method is used to obtain convenient simple expressions and to provide physical insight into the structure and behavior of horizontal modes as trapped, leaky, or transition types. Validity regions for WKBJ expressions in terms of slope and frontal parameters are found, and outside the regions the asymptotic formulas for large order and large argument Hankel functions are used. These combined approximations have very good accuracy as shown by comparisons with numerical solutions for modal shapes and horizontal wavenumbers.
Classification and automatic transcription of primate calls140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954887View Description Hide Description
This paper reports on an automated and openly available tool for automatic acoustic analysis and transcription of primate calls, which takes raw field recordings and outputs call labels time-aligned with the audio. The system's output predicts a majority of the start times of calls accurately within 200 milliseconds. The tools do not require any manual acoustic analysis or selection of spectral features by the researcher.
Effects of duty-cycled passive acoustic recordings on detecting the presence of beaked whales in the northwest Atlantic140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955009View Description Hide Description
This study investigated the effects of using duty-cycled passive acoustic recordings to monitor the daily presence of beaked whale species at three locations in the northwest Atlantic. Continuous acoustic records were subsampled to simulate duty cycles of 50%, 25%, and 10% and cycle period durations from 10 to 60 min. Short, frequent listening periods were most effective for assessing the daily presence of beaked whales. Furthermore, subsampling at low duty cycles led to consistently greater underestimation of Mesoplodon species than either Cuvier's beaked whales or northern bottlenose whales, leading to a potential bias in estimation of relative species occurrence.
Correction method for averaging slowly time-variant room impulse response measurements140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955006View Description Hide Description
Various methods exist for room acoustic measurements. To increase the signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR), averaging of repeated room impulse responses (RIR) can be performed under the assumption of time-invariant systems. Associated with a study of the Paris Notre Dame cathedral, time-variances due to minute temperature changes were observed which confounded results of averaged RIRs, producing significantly shorter reverberation times. A correction method for such time-variance of the acoustic system is proposed, based on time-stretching. Following correction, reverberation times of averaged RIRs were comparable to expected tolerance ranges for measurements, well within one just noticeable difference, while also exhibiting a mid-frequency SNR gain of 8 dB.
Joint inversion for transponder localization and sound-speed profile temporal variation in high-precision acoustic surveys140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955008View Description Hide Description
This letter develops a Bayesian inversion for localizing underwater acoustic transponders using a surface ship which compensates for sound-speed profile (SSP) temporal variation during the survey. The method is based on dividing observed acoustic travel-time data into time segments and including depth-independent SSP variations for each segment as additional unknown parameters to approximate the SSP temporal variation. SSP variations are estimated jointly with transponder locations, rather than calculated separately as in existing two-step inversions. Simulation and sea-trial results show this localization/SSP joint inversion performs better than two-step inversion in terms of localization accuracy, agreement with measured SSP variations, and computational efficiency.
Rapid auditory learning of temporal gap detection140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955004View Description Hide Description
The rapid initial phase of training-induced improvement has been shown to reflect a genuine sensory change in perception. Several features of early and rapid learning, such as generalization and stability, remain to be characterized. The present study demonstrated that learning effects from brief training on a temporal gap detection task using spectrally similar narrowband noise markers defining the gap (within-channel task), transfer across ears, however, not across spectrally dissimilar markers (between-channel task). The learning effects associated with brief training on a gap detection task were found to be stable for at least a day. These initial findings have significant implications for characterizing early and rapid learning effects.
On the use of geometric and harmonic means with the generalized cross-correlation in the time domain to improve noise source maps140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955007View Description Hide Description
Microphone array techniques are an efficient tool to detect acoustic source positions. The delay and sum beamforming is the standard method. In the time domain, the generalized cross-correlation can be used to compute the noise source map. This technique is based on the arithmetic mean of the spatial likelihood functions. In this study, the classical arithmetic mean is replaced by the more standard generalized mean. The noise source maps provide by the arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means are compared in the case of numerical and experimental data obtained in a reverberant room. The geometric and harmonic means provide the best noise source maps with no side lobes and a better source level estimation.
Head wave correlations in ambient noise140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954897View Description Hide Description
Ambient ocean noise is processed with a vertical line array to reveal coherent time-separated arrivals suggesting the presence of head wave multipath propagation. Head waves, which are critically propagating water waves created by seabed waves traveling parallel to the water-sediment interface, can propagate faster than water-only waves. Such eigenrays are much weaker than water-only eigenrays, and are often completely overshadowed by them. Surface-generated noise is different whereby it amplifies the coherence between head waves and critically propagating water-only waves, which is measured by cross-correlating critically steered beams. This phenomenon is demonstrated both experimentally and with a full wave simulation.
Beam diffraction effects in sound transmission of a fluid-embedded viscoelastic plate at normal incidence140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954893View Description Hide Description
The characteristics of a sound beam transmitted through a fluid-embedded viscoelastic plate at normal incidence can deviate significantly from those of a plane-wave. Phenomena such as frequency shift, signal amplification or reduction, and changed beam properties, are observed for resonance peaks associated with specific leaky Lamb modes. When interpreting measurements using plane-wave theory, such deviations will influence the measurement of material parameters and plate thickness. The finite-element-based models used in this study describe the signal chain from the electrical voltage excitation at the piezoelectric transducer terminals to the sound pressure propagated through the plate and fluid to the position at which it is measured by a hydrophone. The measured phenomena are described at a quantitative level.
Release from masking for small spatial separations: Effects of age and hearing lossa)140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954386View Description Hide Description
Spatially separating target and masking speech can result in substantial spatial release from masking (SRM) for normal-hearing listeners. In this study, SRM was examined at eight spatial configurations of azimuth angle: maskers co-located with the target (0°) or symmetrically separated by 2°, 4°, 6°, 8°, 10°, 15°, or 30°. Results revealed that different listening groups (young normal-hearing, older normal-hearing, and older hearing-impaired) required different minimum amounts of spatial separation between target and maskers to achieve SRM. The results also indicated that aging was the contributing factor predicting SRM at smaller separations, whereas hearing loss was the contributing factor at larger separations.
The effect of microphone wind noise on the amplitude modulation of wind turbine noise and its mitigation140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955010View Description Hide Description
Microphone wind noise can corrupt outdoor recordings even when wind shields are used. When monitoring wind turbine noise, microphone wind noise is almost inevitable because measurements cannot be made in still conditions. The effect of microphone wind noise on two amplitude modulation (AM) metrics is quantified in a simulation, showing that even at low wind speeds of 2.5 m/s errors of over 4 dBA can result. As microphone wind noise is intermittent, a wind noise detection algorithm is used to automatically find uncorrupted sections of the recording, and so recover the true AM metrics to within ±2/±0.5 dBA.
The effect of sound speed profile on shallow water shipping sound maps140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954712View Description Hide Description
Sound mapping over large areas can be computationally expensive because of the large number of sources and large source-receiver separations involved. In order to facilitate computation, a simplifying assumption sometimes made is to neglect the sound speed gradient in shallow water. The accuracy of this assumption is investigated for ship generated sound in the Dutch North Sea, for realistic ship and wind distributions. Sound maps are generated for zero, negative and positive gradients for selected frequency bands (56 Hz to 3.6 kHz). The effect of sound speed profile for the decidecade centred at 125 Hz is less than 1.7 dB.
Whistle source levels of free-ranging beluga whales in Saguenay-St. Lawrence marine park140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955115View Description Hide Description
Wild beluga whistle source levels (SLs) are estimated from 52 three-dimensional (3D) localized calls using a 4-hydrophone array. The probability distribution functions of the root-mean-square (rms) SL in the time domain, and the peak, the strongest 3-dB, and 10-dB SLs from the spectrogram, were non-Gaussian. The average rms SL was 143.8 ± 6.7 dB re 1 μPa at 1 m. SL spectral metrics were, respectively, 145.8 ± 8 dB, 143.2 ± 7.1 dB, and 138.5 ± 6.9 dB re 1 μPa2·Hz−1 at 1 m.
Coherent perfect absorption induced by the nonlinearity of a Helmholtz resonator140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4954869View Description Hide Description
In this work, coherent perfect absorption of sound waves induced by the nonlinear response of a Helmholtz Resonator side loaded to a waveguide, is reported. It is shown that this two-port system can perfectly absorb two high amplitude symmetric incident waves under a certain condition. For the one-sided incidence configuration, this condition leads to an absorption equal to 0.5. Experiments verify these results and are in agreement with an analytical nonlinear impedance model for the resonator. The nonlinear control of perfect absorption opens new possibilities in the design of high amplitude sound attenuators for aero-engine applications.
Subjective audio quality evaluation of embedded-optimization-based distortion precompensation algorithms140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955025View Description Hide Description
Subjective audio quality evaluation experiments have been conducted to assess the performance of embedded-optimization-based precompensation algorithms for mitigating perceptible linear and nonlinear distortion in audio signals. It is concluded with statistical significance that the perceived audio quality is improved by applying an embedded-optimization-based precompensation algorithm, both in case (i) nonlinear distortion and (ii) a combination of linear and nonlinear distortion is present. Moreover, a significant positive correlation is reported between the collected subjective and objective PEAQ audio quality scores, supporting the validity of using PEAQ to predict the impact of linear and nonlinear distortion on the perceived audio quality.
Internal and contextual cues to tone perception in Medʉmba140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4955003View Description Hide Description
This study presents results of an identification experiment with speakers of Medʉmba, a Grassfields Bantu language, aimed at evaluating the relative effects of f 0 and duration in cuing tonal contrasts, as well as the role of lexical vs non-speech pitch contexts in biasing tone perception. Results show that duration is a cue for tone perception, with the influence of duration strongest where target f 0 values were lower. Lexical tone perception is also sensitive to the identity of a preceding lexical tone, but not to the presence of a preceding non-speech pure tone.
Tonal noise of a controlled-diffusion airfoil at low angle of attack and Reynolds number140(2016); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.4958916View Description Hide Description
The acoustic signature of a controlled-diffusion airfoil immersed in a flow is experimentally characterized. Acoustic measurements have been carried out in an anechoic open-jet-wind-tunnel for low Reynolds numbers (from 5 × 104 to 4.3 × 105) and several angles of attack. As with the NACA0012, the acoustic spectrum is dominated by discrete tones. These tonal behaviors are divided into three different regimes. The first one is characterized by a dominant primary tone which is steady over time, surrounded by secondary peaks. The second consists of two unsteady primary tones associated with secondary peaks and the third consists of a hump dominated by several small peaks. A wavelet study allows one to identify an amplitude modulation of the acoustic signal mainly for the unsteady tonal regime. This amplitude modulation is equal to the frequency interval between two successive tones. Finally, a bispectral analysis explains the presence of tones at higher frequencies.

I love it!!!
I was looking for a good deal on blankets. I know synthetic fleece blankets can be warm and durable, and they are cheaper than wool. These were inexpensive--really the cheapest blankets I could find. But once I saw them in person, I felt that I should have been willing to spend more money on blankets that really look like they're going to last. I have used them a little, and so far, they're working fine. I'm not sure what will happen when I have to wash them. The weave doesn't look very tight. They're okay, but I wouldn't buy them again.
At first this looked like a blanket too thin. But after heart surgery my husband needed a blanket because he tended to get cold easily, and this blanket kept him comfy and warm throughout his time of healing. I purchased the white blanket and it's just beautiful, and quite a bargain too if you notice the price on some of these blankets ! So Soft a material too.
I sent these to my daughter and she loves them. She said they are so soft. I sent her as she lives where it gets very cold.
I love it! Well get another one softer than I thought and so warm now its to kee it from my dog lol
Soft and warm... Great to cover up on the couch or recliner and watch TV
it is perfect ,i love my Martex Super Soft Fleece Blankets..thanks
The blanket is soft and nice. Nothing fancy or the " SOFTEST", I ever felt. It was thinner then I would have expected. Worth maybe $9 or $10.00 dollars...There are cheaper & just as SOFT, other places. Just saying ;( Convience ? Great.!
This is the softest blanket I have ever bought! It's not heavy at all so if you had a very cold night you could put a quilt over this & you'll be in heaven. This is perfect as an insulator.
These blankets are very soft and seem much more expensive than they were. I washed them right away and used them for guests and they were perfect. I would recommend them to others.
The blanket is nice and soft. It was a little pricey but hopefully will hold up over time. Would love to see more color choices. I had to settle with Ivory.

Some girls feel naked without a coat of lip gloss, but we refuse to step outside without wearing a touch of eye makeup. Happily, this gorgeous shadow palette is there for us whenever we need it. With twelve shades ranging from a shimmery taupe to a midnight black, it makes it easy to experiment with an infinite spectrum of looks.
This is a nice selections of shades and pretty packaging, however, I would not buy this again. I like the nude shades provided but it was too powdery for my taste and didn't stay on my eyes all day. I do like the brush that came in the pack though!
I prefer the NAKED and NAKED2 eyeshadow packs---I have had one of those packs last a year or more and the shadow stays on! Birchbox, please get them in your shop!
This stuff is awesome!! I can't believe I waited so long to buy it. This shadow is very pigmented, the colors are all amazing on my fair/light skin (even the dark shades!), and they blend SEAMLESSLY. I also like that the shades are not all just "brown," some are more purple-hued, some have undertones of green, some of pink, some of gold. The shades are more versatile in my opinion than in any other comparable Nude palette. The only reason I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars is that the brush it comes with is a little cheap (I just use my own), and that the price is slightly higher than what I'd like to pay. But definitely use your Birchbox points to buy this set!!4
I absolutely LOVE this palette! The colors are beautiful and blend seamlessly! With as many colors as you get with this palette, you have countless combinations to choose from and play around with. This beautiful array of colors allows you to go from a simple, natural look to a sultry, smoky eye. I also love that the colors stay put and don't crease (my eyelids have a tendency to be on the oily skin side). I would recommend this over and over!5
I couldn't decide between this palette and the Coastal Scents Revealed 2 palette. I chose this one because I am a huge fan of TheBalm and I've never tried eyeshadows from Coastal. I was not a big fan of the palette when I first looked at it, but after using it, I really like it. The shadows go great with my brown eyes! As usual, TheBalm does not disappoint!4
I LOVE TheBalm products! I bought the full size version of this and really love most of it! I think the shadows have good staying power and they are so soft and easy to apply! I use the darker shadows as eye liners sometimes as well. My only critique is that there a lot pf browns in this palette! I know it's a neutral palette but I don't usually wear as many browns that are in this box. But that's just a personal preference. Other than that it's awesome! And the mirror on the inside and the magnetic closure are super helpful as well! I travel with this a lot and it's done great.4
I was a bit dad because I saw the naughty pallets with the girls on this product on the balm.com but instead I ended up with the nice pallets but the product itself is amazing:) hopefully I can put some money together again after I use it for the naughty oneee but the bomb.com is4
Well after being such a loyal customer to other the Balm products I hoped this would be amazing. It's ok. Definitely NOT worth the price. The case is nice and heavy. The mirror on the inside is big. However, I didn't purchase this for the case or mirror, I love eyeshadow, and that's what I wanted. Color/shades are quite different when applied. (I'm pale..should be similar) Must be reapplied after hour or two. :(3
