We are thrilled to have Rich Terfry (a.k.a. Buck 65) join us to talk about Anne Murray's "Snowbird." Anne Murray is a Canadian musical legend who has sold over 55 million records and it all started with "Snowbird." We cover the story of the song, its writer (Gene MacLellan), and we take a deep dive (as only Rich Terfry can do!) into our analysis of the song. Stay for a pretty epic mixtape to close the episode as we discover the surprising links between Anne Murray and hip hop. Also, for those still reading, you will find a bonus story at the end of our usual credits. Thank you for joining us! Links: Anne Murray on the Muppet Show Our Mixtape You can find Buck 65 on Bandcamp and his excellent Substack site, Vertices. Rich also host's CBC Music's Drive each weekday.

In this week's episode Greg and Patrick talk about both structural equation modeling and directed acyclic graphs, or DAGs, where they are similar and where they are different, and try to provide a Rosetta Stone for translating back and forth between the two. Along the way they also discuss pop, garage sales, thinking about excessive thought, roly-polies, potato bugs, been to the cinema, sweet tea, smiley face sub-i, poop hat, the British Museum, fiberglass replicas, love languages, cave drawings, the space-time continuum, coffee shops, a DAGs Czar, We Are The World (with Cyndi Lauper), tennis shoes, and bubblers.

Phil Keaggy is perhaps one of the most admired guitarists in music today. His fans range from those who aspire just to be able to play his mistakes, to professional musicians who have been strongly influenced by his style. And in between are those who don’t play guitar, yet find solace in his beautifully penned lyrics and memorable melodies.Phil’s solo career has spanned more than 45 years and has included over 60 solo albums, both vocal and instrumental, 8 releases with his band, Glass Harp, as well as numerous duets and trio albums. One of the most sought after studio guitarists, Phil also continues to sell out concerts all across the United States with his ever-changing style, ranging from rock-and-roll to fully orchestrated instrumental compositions.Born on March 23, 1951 in Youngstown, OH, the ninth of ten children, Phil grew up in a home filled with music. On Phil’s 10th birthday, his brother Dave returned home with a Sears Silvertone guitar. That’s when the magic began.Phil spent most of his younger days involved in music and at the young age of 13, he joined his first band, The Keytones. He later went on to join such local groups as The Vertices, The Squires, and the Volume Four who later changed their name to New Hudson Exit.It wasn’t until 1970 when Phil’s band Glass Harp (with childhood friend John Sferra on drums and Daniel Pecchio on bass) recorded their self-titled first album that people really began to take notice of this incredibly gifted guitar player. Glass Harp gained more popularity in the Ohio area opening for such bands as The Kinks and Yes, and even performing at the prestigious Carnegie Hall in NYC. Over the next few years, they recorded two more albums entitled “Synergy” and “It Makes Me Glad”.By 1972, Phil saw his life going in a different direction and made the tough decision to leave Glass Harp and pursue a solo career. His first solo album, “What A Day”, was recorded in just a week’s time during January 1973. He married his sweetheart Bernadette that summer and the following year they moved to upstate New York and joined a church community called Love Inn.During his years there, Phil took a break from recording his own music. It wasn’t until three years later in 1976 that Phil would record his second solo album, “Love Broke Thru”, which was soon followed by a stream of albums, including the acclaimed instrumental album, “The Master And The Musician”.With the Christian Music industry really beginning to grow, Phil won his first Dove Award in 1988 for his instrumental album, “The Wind And The Wheat”. Phil’s second Dove Award came in 1992 for his Celtic-influenced, “Beyond Nature”. Each year from 1998 to 2001, Phil dominated the “Instrumental Record” category at the Doves, winning for “Invention”, “Acoustic Sketches”, “Majesty And Wonder”, and “Lights Of Madrid”. For three years in a row, Phil was voted one of the top fingerstyle guitarists by Guitar Player Magazine readers.These days, Phil Keaggy continues to delight audiences all over the U.S. performing primarily acoustic shows that showcase his intricate looping technique, and occasionally with a band. He is aware that God gave him a calling to deliver the Gospel through music, and for over 45 years, Phil Keaggy has been grateful to do just that, and will hopefully continue to do so for many years to come.http://www.philkeaggy.com/
Quentin: Start with us. We got an escape artist and a cop. There's gotta be a reason for that. You're a doctor, Holloway. That gives you a function, a reason, right? Holloway: No!

Welcome to another edition of Inventions and Shit! John starts the segment with a suggestion for a new food product based on a geometry pun, and that somehow leads us to the pedagogical consequences of improper mathematical terms by fast food franchises. Obviously. The we resume our contest �Who's that bird?� contest (non-bird edition) with round two. As always, we encourage you to play along. See if you can discern what the non-bird looks like, is doing, and what you should call its group. If you prefer not to play along, there's another reason to listen: a first ever result for one of our contests. Plus a lot of groaning. Send us feedback or suggestions by email (maskedman@limitedappeal.net). Theme music courtesy of General Patton vs. The X-Ecutioners and Ipecac Recordings.
This video goes through the Extended Bicubic Surface feature set as well as introduce workflow concepts to use the Vertices and UV point efficiently.
We go through all the available modes to work with this functionality as well as introduce some workflows like localised warping with the Extended Bicubic Surface.
Over fifty years ago, Erdös and Rényi proved the striking result that the structure of the size-random graph G(n, m) undergoes a phase transition as m, the number of edges, grows from less than n/2 to more than n/2. For the past quarter of a century, this phase transition has been studied in great detail, with a host of detailed results emerging, such as the size of the scaling window, and the behaviour of the giant component outside this window. In particular, Pittel and Wormald proved a deep and difficult theorem about the asymptotic value and limiting distribution of the number of vertices in the giant component above the scaling window of this phase transition. Later, Nachmias and Peres used martingale arguments to study Karp’s exploration process, and obtained a simple proof of a weak form of this result. In this lecture I shall review some of the major theorems concerning the giant component, and then present the simple proof that Riordan and I have found of the full result of Pittel and Wormald.
