Nana on Ai Yazawan shoujoklassikko, joka kertoo kahden Tokioon muuttaneen 20-vuotiaan tytön ystävyydestä sekä heidän ystäviensä ja bänditoveriensa suhdeverkostosta. Ajankohtaisina aiheina puhumme mangaka Kamome Shirahaman UNESCO-haastattelun synnyttämästä keskustelusta siitä, onko manga-ala miesvaltainen, sekä Ylen tuoreesta dokumenttisarjasta Japani-efekti!!, jossa käsitellään japanilaisen popkulttuurin harrastamista ja suosion syitä. Lukujonossa aloitamme Taro Nogizakan sarjan Natsume Arata no kekkon, jossa sosiaalityöntekijä menee vankilanaimisiin murhista tuomitun naisen kanssa selvittääkseen tämän mysteerin. --- Kommentoi | Bluesky | Mastodon | X | Threads | Instagram --- (01:25) – KUULUMISET: DESUCON – Desucon 2026:n ohjelmakartta – Ohjelmamme Tytöille vai pojille?

Eine Sendung von Birgit Reuther, zu Gast: Miu (Musikerin; Pro Musik) und Johannes Everke (Bundesverband der Konzert- und Veranstaltungswirtschaft)Keine Kreativität ohne Kollaps? Musikerinnen und Musiker schlagen verstärkt Alarm, dass ihr Schaffen zunehmend von Erschöpfung und Existenzängsten geprägt ist. Für den Nachtclub Überpop ein Anlass, noch einmal genauer auf die Bedingungen zu schauen, unter denen Popkultur entsteht.Trotz des Dauerthemas der minimalen Streaming-Erlöse, trotz wachsender Konkurrenz durch Künstliche Intelligenz und trotz der Kostenexplosionen im Live-Sektor hält sich hartnäckig das Versprechen von individuellem Erfolg durch Selbstoptimierung. Im Sinne von: Du kannst es schaffen, du musst nur härter arbeiten, besser musizieren, mehr posten. Die Musikerin Miu sagt allerdings ganz klar: "Kunst ist kein Nebenprodukt von Selbstausbeutung."Die Popkünstlerin setzt sich mit dem Verband Pro Musik für Artists in der Branche ein. Sie fordert faire Vergütung, verlässliche Infrastruktur und kulturpolitische Verantwortung. Miu ist ebenso zu Gast beim Nachtclub Überpop wie Johannes Everke, Geschäftsführer des BDKV, des Bundesverbands der Konzert- und Veranstaltungswirtschaft. Mit Moderatorin Birgit Reuther alias Biggy Pop reden sie in der Sendung über die aktuelle Lage in der Musikbranche - und über Lösungen, wie sich Bedingungen verbessern und Artists unterstützen lassen.Sie sprechen über die Bereiche Live- und Recorded Music, über die Monopolisierung von Marktmächten und den Erhalt von Vielfalt, über Verbandsarbeit und kulturpolitische Forderungen - und über die Wertschätzung von Artists jenseits von Streaming- und Presave-Daten, Follower- und Vorverkaufszahlen.Miu sagt: "Es muss in Ordnung sein, dass eine Band oder ein Künstler vor 200, 300 Leuten spielt - und das muss irgendwie funktionieren. Nicht jeder muss der nächste Herbert Grönemeyer sein." Johannes Everke betont die Bedeutung der Live-Kultur, um "Gemeinschaftsgefühl, Identifikation, Identitätsbildung und Nähe zwischen Fans, Künstlerinnen und Künstlern" herzustellen.(00:00:00) Intro(02:28) Rock & Roll(14:10) Easy(26:43) Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)(34:40) Crying at the Soundcheck(54:32) The Revolution Will Not Be Televised

In this solo episode, Darin takes on the “beef tallow” craze that's been sweeping the wellness world — exposing the industry manipulation, environmental costs, and scientific inaccuracies behind the trend. From skincare to supplements, companies are selling animal byproducts as miracle cures — but what's really happening behind the scenes? Darin dives into the industrial rendering process, the hidden pollution of factory farming, and the false “ancestral” marketing that's convincing people to buy into a billion-dollar rebrand of waste. This episode isn't about guilt — it's about truth, awareness, and sovereignty. Because when you know how the system really works, you can choose differently.     What You'll Learn 00:00:00 – Why Darin decided to peel back the layers on the beef tallow trend 00:01:00 – What tallow actually is: industrially rendered animal fat from slaughterhouse byproducts 00:03:00 – The dirty details: high-heat rendering, bleaching, deodorizing, and chemical refining 00:06:00 – The hidden foundation of factory farming and the myth of “ancestral” sourcing 00:08:00 – The human and environmental toll of the tallow supply chain — pollution, stress, and labor exploitation 00:10:00 – Marketing manipulation: how “natural” language disguises industrial exploitation 00:12:00 – Science check: why tallow isn't nutritionally superior to seed oils 00:14:00 – The clinical data: saturated vs. polyunsaturated fats and heart health 00:16:00 – The real safety issues — prion disease, contaminants, oxidation, and hidden toxins 00:18:00 – Why skincare claims are unproven — no data shows tallow outperforms plant oils 00:20:00 – The illusion of “zero-waste”: how byproduct economics fuel more slaughter 00:22:00 – What “natural” actually costs — to the planet, animals, and human health 00:24:00 – The path forward: transparency, awareness, and choosing regenerative alternatives 00:26:00 – The SuperLife perspective: stop calling destruction natural — awareness is the first step toward change     Thank You to Our Sponsors Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog Last time we reviewed why interpreting your lab may lead you to the wrong diagnosis and treatment.  Today we continue our review of each lab panel and why the reference ranges on your lab results may not be the “Healthy Normal Range” that you should compare your results to. Lab reference ranges are established with a one-size-fits-all mentality, ignoring the numerous variables that influence blood results. Have you ever tried on a “one-size-fits-all “ANYTHING? Those clothes may fit 20% of the population but for the rest of us, the garment doesn't fit our width, weight or height! All one-size-fits-all lab reference ranges are much the same.  For example, the standardized “reference ranges” in the US serve as a one-size-fits-all “ideal range” applied to everyone, despite genetic differences, varying latitudes, and the diverse diets that characterize the American multiethnic population. This presents the first problem with using a single range for all people: variations among individuals based on differing genetic needs.  The second issue is that the ranges on the lab report indicate the minimum levels necessary for survival, not necessarily the healthiest blood levels for most individuals. Another example of one size doesn't fit all is the reference range for women's hormones. A range is displayed for cycling women, but there is no healthy range for menopausal women.  Does the range displayed refer to menopausal women with HRT, or menopausal women without HRT to treat their menopausal symptoms? Is the range based on what is healthy, or what is average? We aren't sure. Labs don't ask patients questions that could help interpret lab values. Therefore, they cannot provide a truly diagnostic reference range for any illness. They only consider gender and age, as reference ranges are solely adjusted for these two factors.  A doctor must interpret individual lab results alongside a patient's medical and surgical history, including established diseases, medications, supplements, hormonal treatments, and past lab values. For instance, laboratory companies should offer reference ranges based on whether a patient is menopausal, a woman is undergoing ERT, a man is receiving testosterone, a patient is on thyroid medication, a person is being treated for diabetes, or the diabetic tests are performed to diagnose diabetes.   Some Reference Ranges are Based on comparing results to Misleading formulas The best example of this issue is the Lipid Panel. Doctors use this panel to determine a person's risk for heart attacks caused by atherosclerosis. Most doctors don't know the formula for determining Total Cholesterol. This test doesn't predict heart disease in most patients, as the formula used to arrive at that number is not indicative of the disease. However, doctors have been advised that when   total cholesterol levels are high, a patient should start taking a statin, a drug that reduces blood cholesterol and sometimes lowers the rate of heart attacks in certain individuals, though it is rarely predictive in 50% of the population. The problem with the lipid panel is twofold: the LDL level indicates future atherosclerosis in only about 50% of the population and is not a specific test for future heart disease risk. Total cholesterol is even less predictive of heart disease because it stems from a flawed formula. Doctors interpret a high Total Cholesterol level as an indication that a patient may be at increased risk for heart disease in the future. When I test patients with elevated Total Cholesterol or high levels of LDL using a Cardiac Calcium Scan to measure plaque, only half of them actually produce plaque, and consequently, are not at risk for atherosclerotic heart disease. I believe that the Total Cholesterol number is derived from an inaccurate formula for determining a person's risk of future heart disease. The Total Cholesterol number is calculated using a flawed equation. The equation is as follows:         LDL + 1/5 Triglycerides+ HDL = Total Cholesterol Total Cholesterol = LDL (bad cholesterol) + 1/5 Triglycerides (high risk factor) + HDL (good cholesterol) Let's examine this formula simply like this:   Bad + Bad + Good does not equal Bad. Due to this incorrect formula, thousands, if not millions, of patients have been prescribed statin drugs for a lifetime without justification!  Statins carry risks. The list of side effects is extensive and includes muscle deterioration and statin-associated dementia. Unfortunately, most people who experience statin side effects are women. Women tend to have higher HDL levels than men. Additionally, they typically do not have atherosclerotic plaque until menopause and usually do not develop it after menopause if they undergo estrogen replacement therapy! This gender issue is just one of the problems with laboratory reference ranges that are not adjusted for sex. The total cholesterol values were developed solely from the blood levels of men, who typically have lower HDL levels. Women were excluded from the tests conducted to create this blood panel. For women, I dispel the myth that high total cholesterol predicts heart disease by recommending a Cardiac Calcium Scan to check for plaque. If a woman has no plaque by the age of 50 and is taking estrogen, she is unlikely to develop plaque in the future.  I still test them every 2-3 years to ensure that no metabolic changes have altered their risk, but I don't put much faith in the unreliable cholesterol blood panel. There is another blood test that has deceptive reference ranges: IGF-1 How about the GH-IGF-1 test, the test for Growth Hormone?  IGF-1 is a metabolite of GH that we can measure to determine how much the patient produces.  This hormone aids in healing and replenishing aging cells in patients after their growth is complete.  The healthy normal range with which I was trained, (150-350 MIU), has been changed to an age-adjusted normal that compares a person to others in her age category who had their blood drawn the previous year.  What is wrong with this? Growth hormone (GH) decreases with age and contributes to the declining health people experience as they grow older. Similarly, IGF-1 diminishes with age and illness, which means that the “reference range” essentially reflects that you are “average for the sick individuals who visit Quest to have their IGF-1 levels checked. ” IGF-1 levels can be enhanced through weight loss, testosterone replacement, and an increase in muscle mass. The current reference range does not indicate health or illness; it merely shows whether you fall within the average for your age group. This non-scientific method of determining “health” is widespread in contemporary medicine. By comparing aging individuals to others within the same age group, for hormones that decline with age, based on samples from sick patients who visit a specific lab in the past year, these labs label patients as “healthy” even when they are as ill as other individuals their age who go to that lab! This practice constitutes age discrimination! Regarding hormones, the levels we maintained during our fertile and youthful years correspond to the blood levels indicative of health in all individuals ages. For example: People who check their IGF-1 (Growth Hormone) levels and see a low “52 ng/ml” might feel satisfied that they are within the standard range (50-280 ng/ml). However, they may not realize that this range applies to older, unhealthy individuals, not to healthy young ones (150-350 ng/ml).  This is just one example of the issues that arise when non-medical individuals, who do not monitor these tests regularly, draw conclusions from the numbers.   Some illnesses require more than one blood test for diagnosis If you consider only one of the three tests for diabetes or prediabetes (Fasting Blood Sugar, HbA1c, and Insulin), you cannot self-diagnose as diabetic, prediabetic, insulin resistance or healthy.  Diabetes is a disease that has coincided with the rising number of obese individuals.  Both conditions affect nearly 50% of the American population. Blood tests cannot be interpreted accurately unless a patient has fasted for 12 hours; all three tests should be evaluated. When diagnosing diabetes and insulin resistance, we perform three tests to assess whether a patient has insulin resistance, prediabetes, or diabetes. These tests guide our diagnosis and inform the treatment we provide based on their results. Fasting insulin is a highly misleading test. Over 15 years ago, a significant study was conducted that was believed to change the reference ranges for fasting insulin.  The new range set for normal fasting insulin was less than 10 mIU/ml. By publishing the reference range less than 18 mIU/ml, they miss diagnosing many patients with insulin resistance HBA1C is a test that gives a value of average blood sugar over three months. The results are often used alone to determine prediabetes and diabetes; however, considering all three aspects makes the diagnosis and treatment plan more specific for the patient. FBS (fasting blood sugar) is the third diabetes test. It is generally used as a screening test that prompts the ordering of the other two blood tests; however, some patients exhibit symptoms of diabetes and insulin resistance without having elevated fasting insulin levels. Many medications can raise diabetic test values, causing a patient to seem diabetic when they are actually experiencing a side effect of the drug.  One such medication is Atorvastatin.  The solution is not treating diabetes but rather adjusting the medication.  Hormone tests are especially challenging to interpret, Especially when testing free Testosterone in women Here are the problems with the free Testosterone test itself: Women have extremely low levels of free testosterone and testosterone compared to men. I have been informed by Quest that women's free testosterone levels are not reliable with current methods because they are not always reproducible when a test is conducted twice on the same day. This leads me to believe that hormone levels do not always reflect the actual blood levels of free testosterone and estradiol. The levels of testosterone in women are based on menopausal levels of T. Women have long been thought to not produce testosterone, so the “normal” levels are quite low, and 0 used to be considered normal- until one day I managed to persuade a medical director at Quest to increase it to 0.2! Women's testosterone is influenced by their production of E2 and E1, which inactivate free T. Women vary in how their cells respond to testosterone and estradiol. Receptor sites and their genetic acceptance of hormones can mean that the same blood level of testosterone in both sexes does not produce the same effects in all patients. Some women (and men) are resistant to E2 and T, or to one of the two. This indicates that the hormone-free T level may be optimal for one woman while being ineffective in alleviating any low T symptoms for another. The latter individual is T resistant, and we currently have no means outside of research labs to determine which women are sensitive and which are resistant. This requires that doctors and NPs look beyond typical reference ranges to effectively manage E2 and T replacement for women. Lastly some labs use the total testosterone level through a formula determine the free T. This carries inherent risks of reporting the wrong active level of testosterone. Total and free testosterone blood levels for men, are derived from results of older men, rather than from the blood levels that indicate health and the levels at which men experience no symptoms. This leads men to believe they are normal, even though they are symptomatic, and they can't get treatment. There is no time to discuss the reference ranges for LH, FSH, Estradiol, and Estrone; these topics will be addressed in a future blog. I hope I have encouraged you to review your blood work with your doctor or Nurse Practitioner, and not to act as your own doctor by interpreting your blood tests.

Hello, and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience.I'm your host, Jordan Youkilis, and in this episode, I share my capstone paper. I wrote this essay to complete my Master of Arts in Consciousness & Human Potential at Maharishi International University last month. This paper is titled “Is Consciousness the Unified Field? Evidence for a New Paradigm of Reality”.The capstone prompt was “The Application of Maharishi Vedic Science to Solve a Problem in Society.” The final research paper explores practical outcomes of Maharishi Vedic Science — how the principles brought out by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi can practically address current problems, such as education, government, school violence, PTSD, striving from full human development, need for creativity, etc.In “Is Consciousness the Unified Field?”, I propose that the Vedic concept of the field of pure consciousness and the self-interacting field of modern string theory are one and the same. I first describe the history of our current paradigm of reality, one defined by materialism, reductionism, and determinism. I then highlight anomalous phenomena which do not fit the materialist paradigm, including the hard problem of consciousness, the paradoxes of quantum mechanics, quantum entanglement, the mystical experience, and higher states of consciousness.I then argue that consciousness is fundamental, and that matter is the illusion. Next, I explain how these anomalous phenomenon can be explained by a consciousness-based paradigm of reality as proposed by Maharishi Vedic Science. I conclude with thoughts on what this paradigm shift in our understanding of ultimate reality could mean for the future of humanity.If you enjoy this essay and are interested in learning more about Maharishi Vedic Science, check out the rest of the miniseries in Entangled episodes 47-53 and 82.Music from the show is available on the Spotify playlist “Entangled – The Vibes”.

Medan många andra märken kämpar mot nedåtgående kurvor har Miu Miu mer än fördubblat sin försäljning under året. Kvinnan bakom, Miuccia Prada, lyckas kombinera kläder, konst och kommers men hur? Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Miu Miu lanserades av Miuccia Prada 1993 som en sorts spin- off till Prada, en så kallad ”diffusion line” med lite billigare kläder. Hon beskrev det en gång som att det var kläder för de tuffa tjejerna I skolan, ”dem jag avundades”.Miu Miu vände sig i första hand till en något yngre målgrupp genom kläder och accessoarer som var lite mer flickaktiga. Kollektionerna var lite gulligare och glittrigare än Pradas stramare och damigare look och märket kallades till en början för en ”lillasyster” till Prada. Det riktar sig än idag till något yngre konsumenter, även om den idag 74 år gamla Miuccia Prada helst använder sig av uttrycket ”ungdomlig energi” för att beskriva märkets stil.Under de senaste åren har också både kläderna och imagen vässats till, inte minst tack vare en djärvare styling. Miu Miu har bland annat tagit hjälp av den framsynta och okonventionella stylisten Lotta Volkova, som tidigare arbetat för Vêtements och Balenciaga. Hon har hjälpt till med att skapa en modernare och mer samtida så kallad ”Miu Miu Girl”, en stilförebild som på ett, till synes, slarvigt sätt blandar det knasiga med det coola och får det att bli enormt eftertraktansvärt.I veckans program pratar vi med Ingrid Leander Berg, prisbelönt svensk modeskapare som fick sin drömpraktik på Miu Miu – och såg märkets arbete på nära håll. Modevetaren Lisa Ehlin förklarar varför Miu Miu, liksom många andra modehus, just nu samarbetar med artister från den megastora k-popens värld. Filosofen Sven-Olov Wallenstein lär oss hur man posera med rätt sorts filosofiböcker. Och så träffar vi Ann-Sofie Back, som nu tar farväl av sin tjugo år långa karriär som modeskapare med utställningen Go As You Please: Ann-Sofie Back 1998–2018 på Liljevalchs konsthall i Stockholm.

Justin Fanelli, the first ever Acting Chief Technology Office (CTO) for the Department of the Navy, joins host Marshall Kosloff to explain why public and private partnerships should be cornerstone of America's defense innovation strategy. Finalli is striving to radically adopt innovation to disrupt and bolster our future defense capabilities, and with battlefield-defining technologies like artificial intelligence and quantum on the horizon, he argues that not only will private sector competition create better solutions but those solutions will pay dividends in sectors far beyond defense.  Show Notes:Accelerating Change Design Conceptshttps://www.doncio.navy.mil/ContentView.aspx?ID=16683https://www.doncio.navy.mil/ContentView.aspx?ID=16716https://www.doncio.navy.mil/ContentView.aspx?ID=17883https://www.doncio.navy.mil/ContentView.aspx?ID=16804 Atlantic Council Report: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/programs/scowcroft-center-for-strategy-and-security/forward-defense/defense-innovation-adoption-commission/Innovation Adoption Kit: https://www.peodigital.navy.mil/Portals/96/Documents/PDFs/PEODigital_Innovation_Adoption_v3.pdf Jobs STEM talent: https://noblereachfoundation.org/talent-opportunities/scholars-program/Direct employment: https://www.usajobs.gov/Reservists: https://www.marforres.marines.mil/MIU/ and https://gigeagle.mil/

The man convicted in the fatal stabbing of a teen during a violent encounter on the Apple River was sentenced on Wednesday to 20 years for that crime, along with lesser sentences for injuring four other victims that will be served at the same time. Nicolae Miu was convicted by a St. Croix County jury for the murder of 17-year-old Isaac Schuman and the stabbings of four additional victims during the incident, which took place on the river in July 2022. At the time of the verdict, St. Croix County District Attorney Karl Anderson said Wisconsin state statutes call for a recommended sentence of up to 60 years for first-degree reckless homicide, while each of the four first-degree reckless endangerment convictions carries a recommended sentence of 7.5 years in prison plus another five of supervision. On Wednesday, Judge R. Michael Waterman said a 45-year sentence was at the upper end of his options. After explaining the factors that went into his decision, the judge handed down a sentence of 20 years for the count of first-degree reckless homicide, along with 6 years of supervised release. Miu was credited for two years already served, meaning he will be 72 years old when eligible for release. Wisconsin no longer allows consideration for parole after a person has served two-thirds of a sentence. Sentences for the stabbing of four others ranged from 5 to 6 years and will be served concurrently (at the same time) as the homicide sentence. Waterman said his decision was made to balance the "series of very poor decisions" Miu made that day with the otherwise productive life he has lived and the positive impact he has made on friends and his community. The downward departure represents "punishment for what he did, but that also recognizes who he is and the circumstances of his crimes," Judge Waterman told the courtroom. Miu was led into a packed St. Croix County courtroom Wednesday morning where family and friends of those stabbed in the river attack are making victim impact statements. First up was Schuman's mother, Alina Hernandez, who described Isaac as "a mother's dream," a kind, sensitive and talented human being who stepped in when he saw others in danger. "He stole Isaac's life and he stole my life," Hernandez told the courtroom. “I think about him constantly and the way his life was taken. Isaac didn't die in an accident. He was murdered by a monster.” "I hope that monster suffers as much as I do every day until he gets to hell,” she added. Schuman's sister, Alexis Hernandez Lang, had both District Attorney Karl Anderson and the defendant tearing up during her statement, describing Isaac's lost promise. "He had brains and dreams and looks and it seemed like nothing could stop him, except for the defendant,” she said. “To continue going forward in my healing… I need to know the defendant and I will not share the same air beyond today. I ask for the highest sentence.” Stabbing victim AJ Martin described embarking on a day with family members and friends he hadn't seen in years, and ending up with lifelong trauma and scars that won't heal after the near-fatal encounter with Miu. “I was gutted and died for over 9 minutes that day over two separate times,” Martin recalled. “We went over there to help (the teens) and almost died for it.” “This was without a doubt the worst day of my life,” he concluded. Ryhley Mattison, who was also stabbed in the violent meeting with Miu, told the court via Zoom that she is unable to go out in public without having severe panic attacks. She described a growing sense of isolation and low energy that impacts her every day. "In summary, being stabbed by Nic Miu has turned my life upside down," Mattison concluded. After listening to the statements of his victims, Miu stood and addressed the court while choking back sobs, calling the death of Isaac "tragic and unimaginable." "I never meant for this tragedy to occur," the defendant said. "My world is broken, my heart is very heavy. And I will never be the same carrying such a heavy burden inside." "I am hoping that you appreciate how much I am sorry for the outcome of these events," Miu concluded, looking directly at the Schuman family. "I am very sorry." Miu was on the Apple River with his wife and a group of friends when they encountered a group of younger tubers that included Schuman. During the trial, both prosecutors and defense attorneys described the incident as alcohol-fueled. Miu claimed he was looking for a friend's lost phone when he walked up to the group of younger tubers. Video from the river captured the teens yelling, accusing Miu of "looking for little girls," and the conflict quickly escalated. A third group became involved in the escalating altercation. Madison Coen and Ryhley Mattison stood close to Miu in the video, and Miu said he "pushed [Coen] away from my face." Others who were there say Miu actually punched Coen in the face. Several witnesses testified to seeing this interaction or hearing shouts of "he hit a girl," and then additional people gathered around the group, including stabbing victims Tony and Dante Carlson. Immediately after the initial conflict, the defense says the groups of teens converged, pushing Miu backward into the water and taunting him with names such as "raper" and "pedophile." Once Miu stood up from the water, he took out his knife as seen in the video, though several witnesses said they didn't realize he had a weapon until after he started swinging. While Miu's defense team said he feared for his life during the encounter and swung his knife in self-defense, the state insisted he had multiple opportunities to walk away and de-escalate the situation. District Attorney Anderson said the video was important in gaining the convictions, but as crucial was what Miu did - washing and discarding the knife on the riverbank, walking (and not running) back to his group, and not saying a word to them about what just happened. The DA said Miu's lie about the boys pulling knives on him showed he understood the consequences of his actions and knew they weren't committed in self-defense. "He wasn't afraid, he was angry," Anderson said. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Video from the river captured the teens yelling, accusing Miu of "looking for little girls," and the conflict quickly escalated. A third group became involved in the escalating altercation. Madison Coen and Ryhley Mattison stood close to Miu in the video, and Miu said he "pushed [Coen] away from my face." Others who were there say Miu actually punched Coen in the face. Several witnesses testified to seeing this interaction or hearing shouts of "he hit a girl," and then additional people gathered around the group, including stabbing victims Tony and Dante Carlson. Immediately after the initial conflict, the defense says the groups of teens converged, pushing Miu backward into the water and taunting him with names such as "raper" and "pedophile." Once Miu stood up from the water, he took out his knife as seen in the video, though several witnesses said they didn't realize he had a weapon until after he started swinging. While Miu's defense team said he feared for his life during the encounter and swung his knife in self-defense, the state insisted he had multiple opportunities to walk away and de-escalate the situation. District Attorney Anderson said the video was important in gaining the convictions, but as crucial was what Miu did - washing and discarding the knife on the riverbank, walking (and not running) back to his group, and not saying a word to them about what just happened. The DA said Miu's lie about the boys pulling knives on him showed he understood the consequences of his actions and knew they weren't committed in self-defense. "He wasn't afraid, he was angry," Anderson said. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
