Can you tell me when you've been to unfamiliar surroundings on the two-game losing story, but you've gotten the win. What were your thoughts on your size performance today? I thought for long spells, up until we scored, we were very good. I thought we had a lot of control. We had a couple of half chances that we could have scored and then when we got to the goal, we did seem to go on the back foot a little bit, but the lads defended very well. Daniel Margus had two or three good saves that kept the clean sheet, but overall it's a hard-fought one, and it's one where good teams find ways to win, and I think tonight we needed to do that, we needed to defend very well. Even at the end, we still had a chance to put it to bed, and that's something that we've been looking at over the last nine, ten games that we need to be a little bit more clinical, because it could have been a little bit easier towards the end than what it was. But I'm delighted with the win.  It stops that roti two losses, so good one, and we can get back to you Sydney now and look forward to the game next week. Obviously, you're attacking out of Carl Robinson firstly. Do you know what's wrong with Carl? Is he going to be here for a few days? I think he'll be okay. He woke up this morning a little bit poorly. Probably got worse as the day went on, so Doc's advice was to stay in bed. We're in contact with him throughout the game. He gave us the instructions beforehand, so the lads know their jobs. They know what they've got to do. Our work's done Monday to Friday. They know the way we want to play. They know how to defend. They know the jobs that they've got to do, so it's just really reiterating that information before the game. But again, when you're in the game and it goes the way it's going and you're under a lot of pressure, the lads have to stand up and really be counted, which they've done great tonight at that. Are you pleased that, as I said, they're in regional Victoria too? If I'm losing straight, I lose their coach the day of the game. I didn't fall to pieces early that they were able to stand up and be counted? This team's got a huge character. Even in the last two games where we've lost both games, we went two and all down in both games, but this team's fought to try and get back into it. And we should have got back into it against Adelaide. And we had opportunities to get back into it against Melbourne City. So the team's got character right throughout. It's got good resilience. So we had no issue. We had no issue with the team. It was just a case of at the end of the last 20 minutes, 15 minutes, really defending and all hands on deck. Daniel, like I said, we were cut with good saves. And some last hits, blocks and clearances from lads at the back. It was a fantastic defensive performance, good clean sheet, and like you've said, a massive three points for us. Jordan, matchmaking, his first ever highlight start and he gets his mind at Riley Gall in the same one. What were your thoughts on his performance? He'd done great. He's been building his fitness up over the last three weeks since getting out of quarantine. He got his start tonight. And I think the goal came from something that was a good bit of success within the first half as well. We were pressing high. We were trying to win the ball back quick or make them kick it long. And yet it was a mistake, but much was alive and it was a fantastic finish. A nice, calm finish from a fantastic football. That press was very noticeable very early on. Is that just you guys trying to execute your game plan or is that something you identify as a weakness in this Western United team? No, it's something that we try to incorporate into our game. We want to win the ball back as quick as we can or we want to force the team to kick it long. And the way the game worked out even in the early stages we could sense there was a good opportunity to do that. And I thought the lads in the first half were great with good control. We could have went in one now. We may have had a penalty towards the end of the first half. But when we got our goal I thought it was just rewards for all the work that we had put in. The last half hour again we could have been better. But they're a good team. They're a good experienced daily team with some fantastic footballers in that team. And they put us under a lot of pressure. But the good thing for us as a staff and a club is we stood up to it. We fought to the end and we got the result. I know you touched briefly a bit on finishing earlier. It might be an area for improvement that you didn't do more to make a back up goalkeeper that wasn't expecting to play show a bit more than what he could do. I think Daniel Lowering had that right chance early on. But would you have liked to maybe test it and scored a little bit more? Well, bless him. We had good control and we had opportunities. And when the opportunities came along and it's something that we have been working on, it's something we have been looking at over the last two months. It's been a little bit more ruthless in front of goal. But when these chances come along, it's up to the players to make the right decisions and execute the right finish. And unfortunately for us there's a goalkeeper there to save it. So it's, well, we had a good chance. And at the end we had good chances to finish it. You know, Cox had a good header. I think it was a block. Kwame Yebaw had a good chance as well to put the game out of sight. So these are the small things that could have made our life in that last six minutes a little bit easier. Just quickly before I let the guys on the left support say anything. And March, how far away do you think he is before he's 100% fit? Well, he's been out for three, three and a half weeks. He's had minutes in three games. So it's a gradual build-up. I think if he's playing and he's playing regularly, and that's our decision for the boss and not me, if he's getting a start, then he'll get up to speed pretty quickly. I mean, again, you've seen tonight it was a good 65 minutes. And we're trying to get a little bit more out on because we didn't want to change it because we felt him and Graham Dorans in the middle give us a good control, great experience, ex-premier league players. So we've got a good experience in there. So we didn't want to change it, but to save his legs and actually protect him a little bit, we need to take him off. But he's, yeah, I still think in our three, four weeks he'll be before he'll be right back up to speed. Like you said, the only goal today came from the stake on Wesson's behalf. But you're still comfortable that you were there at the time? I would say up until we scored, I thought we were definitely the better team. But when you go on and up, it affects teams in different ways. You know, we seem to take a backward step a little bit. When Western are now having to show a little bit more urgency to get back into the game. So I think it was a bit of both. But when you're asked to defend and you're put under pressure, you've got players at the back that need to stand up. You've got a goalkeeper in the right moments need to make saves. Tonight we had that. So, yeah, I think we deserved the three points and for long spells, like I said, particularly up until we scored, I felt we were the better team. So you say you've got that determination as teams got that determination now in that if that goal wasn't scored, do you still feel like you would have walked away with a win tonight? Fortunately enough, I did get scored. So I don't need to answer that one. So, listen, the chances were there. We almost had a chance. And they said a really, really good chance. Probably when you speak to them, we probably should score. But we got the goal and goals changed games, you know. They gave us something to hold on to. I guess I would have liked us to have been a little bit more front foot the way we were playing before. But, like I said before, Western are a good team. A good experienced daily team with some fantastic footballers in it that are always going to ask the question and trying to get back into the game. So tonight we had the answers for that. So I'm delighted with the win, big clean sheet as well.


Hello and welcome to the ACMI podcast show the show where we experiment with all things podcasting Listen listen along as we click fumble and fade our way through some hands-on learning with ACMI staff and members In this pilot episode, we will Some of our favorite spooky movies since tis the season for all things ghoulish paranormal and possessed Today, I'm your host Katie, but next time I might be someone else With me today is All funzo Doug and Jen all ACMI members and I'll hear and interested in what it takes to make a good podcast Thanks for being with us today. We're very happy to be here. Thank you. Thank you. Hi Thanks for being here. This is my first time podcasting. We'll see how it goes No nerves at all So let's talk about Halloween. What is your favorite Halloween? Doug Well, um, you know, I was just thinking about we're talking a little earlier about how exciting it was when you're a trick-or-treater to get a You know the full-size candy and then there was talk about Kit Kats And I remember getting up full like a big Jumbo Kit Kat that was a that was a pretty exciting Halloween for me Yeah, I remember we always used to talk about like, oh, which house has the big candy bars, right?  Have you had the green tea Kit Kat? Not yet. No, I'll have to get those for next time What about you Jen? Well, I'm not the best person to talk about trick-or-treating as a kid because we weren't really allowed to Because I came from a large family and my parents were not up to getting us all dressed up and Going out for Halloween, but I take my daughter and I am a forever Snickers person So when she does get them, it's it's it's bargaining time Because that's that's my candy of choice is like a little nutty little caramel Snickers definitely I hear it satisfies I Always bring Snickers bars on my on my hikes to like give to my friends if someone's getting grumpy. Yeah Yeah, it's a health food, right? There's nuts. Yeah Nougat, I believe That's about that's part of the food pyramid I Think there's a tie for me Butterfinger That one is You know, I try and show my kids that you know, like, you know We're only gonna have you know just the right amount of candy and we have to say no and put the bag away at some point But then, you know 1111 30 p.m. Rolls around and then you know you start looking through the through the bag and then the only problem with butterfingers is Leaves a lot of evidence it crumbles Oh, yeah, I got a lot of chocolate stains on my on my shirt the next day, but I would say butterfingers and Baby Baby Ruth a classic Goonies reference Right There's there's a I believe there's a baby Ruth reference in them in the movie Goonies but yes, baby Ruth and and Butterfingers baby Ruth because Being a small when I was a small child. I remember my dad after work Would sometimes bring some candy home and usually it was one of those big charms Lollipops And then baby Ruth was was another was another one so I think I just equate it to two good times when I was a kid So so I'll go with baby Ruth to be I'll go with baby But to go back to your Butterfingers for a second What I love them, but what are they made of do we that's a good question. What is it? What is it evil? It's evil. Okay evil things Well, there must be some sort of milk chocolate. Let's call it milk chocolate. That's right. Let's call it low-grade milk chocolate Yep, and then what's inside? lard Things that I want to think about around 11 30 p.m.  It's like candy covered over with the chocolate, right? It's just but that's the the plus of the butterfinger is that you can actually take a bite out of it And not lose a tooth while you're going It's sticky though, it gets stuck in my teeth. That's like my one thing about butterfingers I think and the age the age of the butterfingers Will say here that my my my researcher and personal assistant Just brought me some breaking breaking news How is a butterfinger made a concoction of Molasses oh in a very 1880s right molasses corn syrup sugar and something healthy You know if you're dehydrated have a couple of butterfingers This podcast has been worth it just for This podcast brought to you by Butterfingers Well, I'll say Reese's Reese's peanut butter cup is my favorite it's not in Kit Kat bar, but I'll say Reese's That's just me cuz I don't like peanut. I'm not a huge peanut butter fan. Oh, yeah, I could see that I nerded out really hard when I was a kid I Counted all my Halloween candies one year and I actually did a bar graph. That's how nerdy I am I was like, I was so obsessed with peanut butter cups. I was like, I'm picking all the peanut butter cups at all these houses I'm gonna count it. I'm gonna graph it. I'm like just see I don't know why The house is to visit it's like well these people the folks that like pass up Peterborough cups So the that little bar Larger in comparison, so you're just doing research. You had data. Yeah Great. Well, let's move on to our scary movie topic. So scary movies or TV shows, I guess you said the goonies Which I guess is not it certainly scared has scary elements to it scary elements But I don't think I don't think you'd put it in the in the horror horror section At blockbuster. I just dated myself. Sorry No wedding wheel I was thinking my favorite Halloween movie is Shaun of the Dead just kind of like a horror like comedy It's about zombies. It's with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. So it's Kind of comedic It was my first zombie movie that I think I saw and it was a good like intro into zombies because now I love zombies, but at first it was like a little too scary, but it's a comedy. So you get some laughs in It's a hard question, huh? It's a hard question. I had to admit that I'm not a big horror movie genre person But things that skitter really fast in movies. Oh scare the bejesus out of me I like things that like crawl across the floor super fast or like, you know, crawl up a wall You know at like three times the speed of a spider like that is just not my thing But I am a stranger things fans strangely enough And they've got plenty of gore and like scary stuff, but um But yeah, some of the more hardcore horror stuff. That's not me Sam. Yeah You know, I was when I was thinking of this question I was No, I'm thinking about I'm staying right now. I'm taking care of my elderly mother in the house I grew up in I hadn't been back for a long time. So a lot of my Answers to these questions I go. I'm kind of a wash and nostalgia, you know where I am and maybe I'm that way anyway, but What I immediately thought of was was a TV show and it's not a I mean not technically a horror TV show or anything, but it definitely remember getting scared by it But yet loving watching it was in search of you ever remember in search of with Leonard Nimoy. Oh he would It was like this half-hour show was on every week and it would be like, you know in search of the Bermuda Triangle Solved mysteries exactly and early but 1970s Oh, right. So the other thing that adds to the level of creepiness for me or like, you know, they're They're sweaty because it's the 70s, you know They get the 70s clothes on, you know a lot of bad acting reenactments, which are creepy too like People doing pretending to be pilgrims during the witch trials, but but they still look like they're from 1975 kind of and strange camera angles and weird Zither like check this out. Yeah, I would highly recommend it highly recommend it There was one about a couple about UFOs and to get kidnapping and things like that and I just remember I'm in love in it But it was just very creepy and then they also had like experts, you know experts in the paranormal that would come in and They were always creepy because they lent this kind of you know at the time thinking oh, there's a scientist, you know This was credibility's must be true like those like Sasquatch and Bigfoot TV shows. Yes Oh, like we have a real biologist here on the team exactly really questioning, right? Right so it must be so telekinesis must be real like things Things like that. So that that whole thing I love that show and made me start to watch it And it start to get into a kind of a binge Checking it out again. So yeah in search of in Lender Nemoi's voice also Added a lot to that classic. Yeah local local boy. Yeah Well kind of like Jen I would I would say horror is not my my genre But I guess go again going back to childhood. Maybe the original nightmare nightmare in Elm Street That's that's a Halloween movie. That's a scare. That's a scary one. Yeah My wife is not sitting next to me or anywhere here, but that Halloween is her is her favorite But for me, I think I'd go with a good Freddy Krueger the original original Freddy Krueger Someone had a claw to my head. I think I think I think Freddy Krueger. I think that's the one I'd go with Remember the the song in the in the there was not a song. What do you call it a? a No, not a chance. There was like there was like a song There was like a song there was a little song that this that the school kids would would sing and it was One two Freddy's coming for you three four better lock your door 56 better get a crucifix seven eight I Don't remember And Yeah, you're wound up to I don't know.  Yes, the shiny makes me think of the shine. Yes.  You know it's trying to stab him underneath the bathroom door like you know And that was a it was closer to real as a smaller person But it's like I can never find like the name of the movie You Jen we'll watch this together It's trilogy of trilogy of terror. Oh, is it yeah, and it's it's like well We did not set this up. It was like 1976. It was it was it was filmed.  It doesn't Doesn't the soul of the doll like jump into him or something. That sounds right to me Oh spoiler alert. Sorry everybody. If you haven't watched this movie since 1976 Spoiler alert spoiler alert that used to scare that it was very scary. Oh, man Well, I want to make sure I give our we have an audience. Yeah, I don't know if they want to hop on and give us their Their movie wrecks We welcome charlotte's hi charlotte's on our mic and Texas chainsaw massacre. No, really? Well, I don't know if it's my favorite I don't know if I'd ever watch it again, but I Remember several scenes from it and you know just the devices they use to create that suspense and horror and Actually abject fear, you know, I haven't seen that one Okay, I'll think about it. It's the classic thing where You know, there's even a Commercial that they made for some Some you know car or something Yes, recent recent commercial. Yeah, the kids are they say all the gyco or something You know, these kids like run and hide and it's yeah, and it's behind the you know a bank of chainsaws and right I know what you're talking about But it's referencing them. But yeah, the movie. Yeah, and then there's black mirror the TV series Where you get to choose like They choose the path one of the episodes is like a choose your own adventure. Yeah But it's a little more kind of tech scary tech They're like each episode is like a futuristic like what if kind of scenario So there's probably like an AI episode. There's like, you know, it's it's they're really realistic. So it's kind of Yeah, yeah, I think they actually got some There's some controversy about it I'm scared just thinking about it Karen joins us as well. Do you have any? Yeah? Can everybody hear me? Okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, actually one of my favorite movies was witches of Eastwick and What's really interesting about that movie is it was made about Eight or ten years after I graduated from Cohasset High School the it was filmed actually in Cohasset and you know, it's a town where I went from middle school to high school graduated high school in Cohasset and it was for me. It was just great seeing, you know, some of the places I had visited while I was at school there was It was more of a comedy then, you know, there was some pretty scary very graphic Costuming it was does anybody remember was Jack Nicholson and Cher and Susan and Michelle Pfeiffer And it was it was hilarious. I just watched it last night and just I Completely forgot about the underlying plot, you know, it was really it was kind of like a relationship movie at the same time you know, there were three desperately lonely women and What they wanted more than anything else was a relationship and who answers the call but Jack Nicholson as Darrell Van Horn the devil and You know, he just visited upon this very, you know parochial New England town and Caused all kinds of havoc, but it's still one of my favorites Well, when you say Cohasset, this might be too real, but it makes me think of that murder that happened recently Anyways not to mention bears. Oh bears. Oh boy Cohasset had bears murders. Oh my gosh. I think that was within the last year. Well, my oldest lived lives in Salem Do y'all go up there? What's Salem? Until November. Yeah, November. Don't go this month Unless you're on a bicycle or yeah, they set up three satellite Parking things and you can take it. Oh, wow It's just like it's kind of like the biggest tourist trap there is but in a ham. Yeah, but it's They they make a lot of money Well, I think that movie Hocus Pocus That that the sequel I think came out a year ago and people were I mean they had filmed the original in Salem And I think that that they actually filmed the the sequel in Salem as well So it's just I remember there being a big hubbub is I had actually never seen Hocus Pocus until then which is like, you know, I'm a little behind there But it's just um, but it was I mean it was an interesting movie and and the Paranormal and things like that like those kinds of things are always really interesting too. My daughter loved it But it's like Salem. It's just one of those places where it's kind of Halloween all year long early is yeah Does anybody watch the the Chucky? Oh, yeah They are like the classic I have never watched them and I never will I will not my grave with a creepy doll in your future, okay?

My name is second lieutenant Mackenzie Kearns. I'm with 260th movement control team in my hometown's Bedford, New Hampshire. So what's going on right now is we're downloading 2-1 cavalry division equipment from the Ark integrity and moving it into this staging lot behind me. From this staging lot, we're going to be transporting it via commercial truck and then from commercial truck it'll travel onward into theater. Working at the port of our Huse so far has been fantastic. Working with our host nation partners, both the home guard and the local contractors and civilians has been amazing. Everyone has been so friendly, so helpful and we've all been cooperating to have a successful mission here at the port.


I think we tried to get her last time for the functional con, she couldn't make it, but I'm glad she's here and I'll let her introduce herself. Thank you for coming. Thank you for having me. Right. Yeah. Good God. It's 9am in the morning and I'm apparently giving the opening keynote for this conference. I'm not a morning person. I can only assume that this means that Nuresh is trying to kill me. But I'll try and send her on. Right.   But before I start that, let me just talk about the state of JavaScript currently because I'm just going to come right out and say I'm a hipster.  But the state of JavaScript today, though, is sort of not doing it for me. We've got these giant frameworks everywhere. I mean, jQuery is good. It's tiny, but you've got like Angular and Ember and other giant things. Angular actually has dependence injection. Do you know what that makes me think? It's enterprise programming, isn't it? And that's not really what I sign up for. It doesn't make me feel like I'm doing anything special. Because in functional programming you have this vocabulary from mathematics, which is just amazing for confusing people. Like you've got the closely arrows, you've got the you need dilemmas. I'm not sure what a you need dilemma is, but apparently you need one. And Saiga is the morphic pre-promorphisms. That's a real thing in Haskell. And there's nothing like a word, like actually I had to practice a lot to learn how to say Saiga is the morphic pre-promorphisms. And there's nothing like it to make other programmers feel like, what's going on? I have no idea what's happening here.
